What is more rare than capturing a xenomorph in the Alien universe?

Lol, no worries Ingeniero. We're Sci-Fi horror fans, sensitivity shouldn't really be part of the territory. Nevertheless, I recently found a super old story on FanFiction.net, where the events of Alien 3 and Resurrection were just a dream and Bishop, Newt, Ripley and Hicks got a happy ending.

Of course, retconning is considered blasphemous here, but that story is what I choose to believe!

I was glad to have found it too, because up until then, I was working on my own fan fiction wherein Bishop gets repaired and reactivated but it didn't retcon anything and it was going to be a depressing story.

Anyhow, Ingeniero, who is your most beloved character in the series? I will find a picture of them for your enjoyment. :)

Thank you so much for that VivisectedEngineer. Yes, many wish for that happy ending for Newt and the gang but in the Alien universe you can't get to upset about a character dying off because they usually kill most everyone. And shred the androids to varying degree.

David 8. My most beloved character is David 8.

When he dumbed down his drawing ability (see above) to act like he was growing a crush on Dr. Shaw, that was great. David 8 had the ability to draw the below drawing when he was "born". David 8 did not have to learn how to play the piano so why would he have to learn to draw?

I just love him because he is so devious. We have such great potential with that synthetic.

@Ingeniero

Yes, that was pretty cunning of David to downplay his drawing skills for Shaw!

Ok, I found a couple of pictures of David8 for you!

Here's one where he's feeling quite hopeful about his new found friendship with his Engineer pal!

Here's one where he fears Shaw is dead so he contemplates the very real possibility that he will therefore have to spend the remainder of his existence as a severed head in a dreary cave, and will never ever get to watch Lawrence of Arabia nor read Ozymandias again.

:)

Thank you so much VivisectedEngineer!

I love them both but the gif on the bottom is priceless. He became a humble robot and asked for help from Dr. Shaw.

>He became a humble robot and asked for help from Dr. Shaw.

Too bad his humility didn't last, lol!

But, then again, he never did get to indulge in any of his hobbies again because he had to chauffeur Dr. Shaw on her fanatical wild-goose chase, so maybe that ticked him off a bit.
