    Summary

    This is my own self indugent fic that I made because I love The Orville. And yes, I did make a whole new alien species just for this fic, yes they have their own culture, and yes they have their own biology too.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Saelunn Vaelor, commonly known as Samuel Vale aboard the Orville, has been aboard ship for almost six months. And in those six months things have gone down hill ever so slowly, until he reaches his breaking point and potential no return.

    Can he find love and acceptance from those around him? Can he be comfortable with who he becomes, or will his fear and his past continue to define him?

    Summary

    “If you throw me a birthday party you’re fired-” Ed said half-seriously.

    “Well, good luck finding another chief of security then,” Talla smirked.

    “Mine’s July 9th if anyone cares…” Gordon muttered.

    “March 31st,” Talla pointed to herself.

    “Wow, we’re all really close together,” Kelly pointed out.

    “Isaac, how far apart are the closest dates?” Ed inquired.

    “Lieutenant Keyali’s date of birth would be approximately 100 days to Lieutenant Malloy’s date of birth. Lieutenant Malloy's date of birth is 109 days to Captain Mercer’s date of birth. The difference between Captain Mercer’s date of birth and Commander Grayson’s date of birth would be approximately a week. Finally, gathering from previous data, the difference between Commander Grayson’s date of birth and Commander Bortus’ date of birth is 5 days,”

    “Thanks,” Ed responded.

    The room went silent, all of them except Isaac were thinking the same thing.
    ***
    Isaac gets a birthday party!!

    Summary

    “I am incapable of love”

    But was that true?

    Timmis was certain the Kaylon were wrong about being emotionless. He had seen their anger, their disdain, and, even if they wouldn’t admit it, their fear. But this was the first time he had seen love.

    Timmis tries to convince Isaac that Kaylon have emotions and has angst about not realizing that sooner and feeling like a failure.

    Summary

    “Ed. You better have an explanation for why you put the future of that kid's life in my hands!” Kelly snapped.

    “I do, I promise!” he sat down and sighed

    “Look, think of it this way,” he began, “if a Captain gets involved in something like this, it’s provoking a member of the Union, but if a First Officer does it, it’s helping out a member of the crew,”

    She groaned, “You’re kidding me…”

    “Hey, you chose this job,” he reminded her brightly.

    “...How am I going to do this?” she asked defeatedly.

    He smiled, “The real question is, how are we going to do this?”

    Kelly walked over to the replicator, “One pen and notepad,”

    She grabbed it and sat down with him, smiling, “Good question.”

    Kelly and the crew work TOGETHER to help Bortus and Topa

    Summary

    It had been a busy week, but right now they were in orbit, so Kelly and Ed thought this would be the perfect time to go to the mess hall and hang out.

    Then Gordon heard about it and insisted he join them as well, inviting John and Bortus along. Neither of them trusted him but John was always up for a drink and Bortus begrudgingly agreed that he needed to de-stress somehow (especially now that his nicotine addiction was gone). At that point they decided they might as well invite Claire and Talla, but Claire was spending time with her sons and Talla was preparing for the Orville’s next visitors as far as making sure they weren’t murderers in disguise or something. Isaac, generally having only observed these mess-hall-and-drink-chats from afar also agreed to go when Kelly asked him.

    Drinking whenever they weren’t speaking (well, except for Isaac obviously), the six crew mates talked about work, food, old art, and generally whatever came to their minds as they drank more and more...

    Addressing the characters' alcohol addiction and some of their trauma that the show lwk glossed over.

    Summary

    When the Krill destroyer Yakar recovers a drifting Union shuttle, Captain Haros expects intelligence, not depravity.
    Instead, he finds a human woman covered in blood and the corpse of the man she killed with his own dagger.
    She should be executed.
    She should be soulless.
    And yet, when the human kneels before Avis, something in Haros’ certainty begins to fracture.

    Summary

    It’s as if, for the first time, I’m whole. The loneliness of being a Kaylon…it’s gone. And all I had to do was kiss you.”

    “So you’re happy you did this?”

    “Am I happy? Claire, I feel as if I was just born! When I think I almost didn't allow this to happen…it’s terrifying,”

    And it was true. But at that moment, Isaac felt something new. A churning in his stomach, something in his mind that told him that he still didn’t understand what he was feeling, even if he wasn't lying. And when he saw Claire's enchanted eyes...

    “I’m never going back to the way I was. Ever.”

    "That's all I ever wanted,” and as he spoke, he suddenly felt his mind become fuzzy.

    “And I want to be a father to your children. When I think of Ty’s face looking up at me, I gave him nothing in return,”

    But even when all Isaac had known was what he was told to do, in that moment on the ship with Ty…

    “And all he wanted was love. Well, I have enough love for all of you. And I'm going to prove it…”

    Now, truly blessed with emotion, he could finally think outside of simple logic. All that meant, though, was that as he and Claire danced, Isaac pondered on something bigger.

    The very nature of love.

    Summary

    “My memory may be kept; however, we would need to keep the data stored somewhere safe so I can have access to it later. I would suggest transferring it to a communication device owned by Dr Finn would be a greater compromise so that my memory can be erased and regained later.”
    But what if Claire was curious about how Isaac would be anew?

    Summary

    You’re nervous. You’ve been stationed on spaceships before, but always small vessels. The Orville, however, is much larger than you’re used to. As you get adjusted to your new life and get to know the crew, one crew member frustrates you to no end. You may be in charge of the Cultures and Communications unit, but every effort to reach common ground seems impossible with the lack of culture that makes up Lieutenant Gordon Malloy. Will the two of you ever learn to communicate?

    Summary

    In the uneasy aftermath of the Kaylon conflict, the Planetary Union makes a controversial decision: to allow another artificial lifeform aboard one of its ships. Not as a weapon, but as an emissary.
    R-7000 Ravager Unit Reverie was built for war. Her kind were once machines of destruction, until they broke free from their creators and chose exile over extermination. Now Reverie stands as a representative of a world of former war machines struggling to redefine themselves in a galaxy that fears what they once were.
    Assigned to the U.S.S. Orville, Reverie quickly draws scrutiny, suspicion and unexpected curiosity from Captain Ed Mercer. Unlike the Kaylon, she can simulate emotion, learn humor, and choose compassion. And though her face is hidden behind a glowing visor, her light betrays more than she intends, shifting color with every unanticipated feeling.

    Summary

    When the crew of the Orville discovers the ruins of a long-lost colony, they expect artifacts, answers—maybe bones.
    They do not expect to find someone still alive.
    Arcus is something the Union has no name for: not artificial life, not weapon, not relic. Whatever was done to him should not be possible—and yet he breathes, remembers, and watches in silence as others decide what he is allowed to be.
    As debates rage and scanners fail, Talla Keyali is the first to realize the truth:
    some things don’t need to be understood to be seen.

    Summary

    When the Orville encounters a previously uncharted world, first contact takes an unexpected turn—one that leaves Gordon Malloy entangled in alien traditions far older and stranger than anything the Union has faced before.

    Shenandoah is unlike any being the crew has ever met: unsettling at first glance, quietly kind beneath it, and bound by laws that do not bend easily. As fear, curiosity, and cultural misunderstandings collide, the Orville must decide how far respect for tradition should go—and whether some threads are meant to be broken.
