The life of a teenage hellworlder

We've all heard of the trope that Earth is a deadly planet by galactic standard; and has thus honed humanity into a ruthless species bent on surviving at all costs.    As it turns out, that trope is true. Sapient species that evolve on safe planets develop to be peaceful and compassionate - and the ones that do on dangerous ones become violent and selfish out of need - usually wiping themselves out.   But obviously, not every violent species drives itself to extinction - resulting in the few that make it to the space age being feared and ostracized - including humans.  The life of a teenage hellworlder is a sci-fi slice of life story that revolves mainly around Thomas, a sixteen-year-old New Britannian attending a Xeno high school, who befriends a lonely apex predator named Javqua.  Getting written by two amateur teen writers, things may sometimes be inconsistent or be confusing - feel free to comment and point out these problems.  Gore, profanity, and traumatizing content tags are only for minor events in the story and do not happen often.  Chapters are around 1k - 2k words - pretty short, but that's because we're all busy with our own lives and school. Trust us - we would gladly upload 5k word chapters if we could. We tend to upload new chapters every Saturday or Sunday.  Please consider supporting us on Patreon!
