Gaia knows secrets

As a human, if he were to leave here without any protection, some supernatural creature or another would take him. After that, who knows what'd happen to him.

"Yes, I suppose you are, but I won't have you treated like one anymore. Besides, so are Becky, Jennifer, and Captain Jewkes, by that same logic." He chews on his cheeks for a moment, considering my words.

"They're here by their own choice," he states after a moment.

Some of my patience slips. I'd been trying to offer an olive branch to the man, and he's treating it like a slap in the face. "They're also here because your people will kill them if they return to Earth." I state a bit heatedly.

"We don't kill humans," he argues back.

"Like Lisa?" Becky joins in, her eyes hot. I wonder if I'm going to have to get between the two of them.
