Summary
Pitch provided by u/CruisingNW:
Love Languages mixes medical drama, cultural exploration, and slice-of-life-esque healing-with-kindness to make a story that unflinching faces the ugly parts of the NoP universe, and answers the question of 'what if we could do something about it'? It is well-founded in understood science and grounds itself and the world it is in solidly because of it, without getting caught on the normal hard-scifi hangups. While the core story is wonderful, it also explores variety by including side stories of people who committed these miseries, and gives us a glimpse into how normality can be different from different perspectives.

Summary
Somewhere nearby, something exploded.
A misanthropic recluse who was quick to settle down and abandon their hopeless mission into the caves is forced out of a listless cycle of sleeping and hiding when a landmine goes off mere meters from their life pod. They can't just leave someone to die, right?
So they take action. And then they do it again, and again, and again, and hey, where did all these people come from? Why does everyone think this is some kind of charity, that they LIKE being helpful or something?
This story is a dark but ultimately hopeful exploration of C-PTSD, survivor's guilt, and empathy fatigue. It's about a fake demon who learns to be a real hero and finds a family in a deep, dark pit. There will be a lot of improvised medicine, gritty survival realism, and difficult, often bad, decisions. It WILL have a happy ending, and it's also pretty funny, I think.

Summary
Charlie is a Bio-engineered experiment - or Expie - who was given to Amanda Myers as a service animal, for her work in the study of Extraterrestrial-Biology for inhabitable planets across the Milky Way. Life remained steady for them on the farm she inherited on Earth, until she is approved for a Junior analyst position on Pluto Station; the same station that not only is the origin of Charlie's existence, but also orbits the Gray Planet - the same one Amanda has been studying for years - and she brings him along for the journey. From the moment they landed, Charlie would be forcibly doomed to the near impossible assignment: Reclaim a missing piece of important technology, deep in the cavern systems of the Gray Planet, that had mistakenly been sent down with the mountains of trash sent before it. Charlie is merely one of thousands of Expies and other offshoot species sent down for this hopeless effort. Like those before him, he is not expected to survive.
Three variables make him unlike those before:
The first variable is that he's been thoroughly trained by Amanda to survive the most dire situations with the few resources he may find himself with.
The second variable is a reason to return.
The third is Her.Bookmarked by DoctorJaska
