story idea
An action show oriented around two lovers, and major scenes involving them showing how much they love eachother happens, a love song plays. But the final fight rolls around, one of the lovers either die or get critically injured and the other has to fight on their own.
The same love song played during the two's scenes plays here but its a rock/heavy metal version (or any genre that just really excentuates rage or anger really well) as they fight.
I have an example of this, but its not the best.

I've always loved these kinds of HASO stories, kinda goin into the "humans are strong, until it gets to the mental stuff" kinda thing
What Humans call the "Thousand Yard Stare"
As more and more Humans interact with and integrate within Coalition stations, reports, closer to hushed whispers really, began to circulate of some Humans being... discomforting... to be around.
Initially we thought it was just rudeness or passive aggressive behavior or any number of subtle actions or choice of words, no matter how advanced or civilized there will always be some assholes.
However, when some of these "offenders" were presented to us peacekeepers, we found them to be perfectly polite and reasonable. As our conversation continued and shifted topics, whenever there was a lull or the focus was on another speaker for a longer time, the Human's gaze drifted somewhat.
Sometimes she would look to the side and it was harder to tell what her exact expression was, but every so often she would be looking at one of us, but... not. It was as if she was staring at something behind us, through us even. Beyond the walls of the station, it even felt as though beyond space and time itself.
It was one of the most unnerving and chitin-chilling feelings we've ever felt, but then the Human seemed to notice our change and became that friendly and cheerful person once again:
"Sorry, my mind drifted there for a bit. What were you saying?"
And the conversation continued as if nothing was out of the ordinary for the Human.
Upon our return to our office, one of the Human peacekeepers heard about our impromptu assignment and offered this explanation after we told him what happened:
"Oh yeah, I think that person was a retired firefighter or rescue worker of some kind. Professions like that can be dangerous and you'll eventually encounter something horrible at a disaster site or crime scene. Probably saw someone die, or a person they rescued later didn't make it, or it was a kid... It's the toughest when you're the last one a child sees before..."
There it is again. That look, but with a tinge of sadness this time. We didn't know he was carrying such memories. The untimely death of anyone is a difficult time for those that survive, especially when it is the young whose life was still just starting. It seems Humans with their heightened senses and sensitivity to the feelings of others these kind of experiences imprint a far stronger memory than for most.
"Anyway, we've got a bunch of names for such things, but typically we call it the thousand yard stare. It's an old measurement unit, don't worry about it. I think the meaning may have changed a bit over the years, but basically some people go through traumatic stuff and they decide, consciously or not, to sort of... detach themselves from reality. It's a coping mechanism.
A few people thrive on horrible things, but they're the exception. Most of us would go crazy or depressed or any other infinite bad possibilities our brains can go in if we don't find a way to separate ourselves from certain realities. It can get real bad otherwise. It's rare, but a few go truly nuts and try to inflict their pain unto others. Most end up suffering alone for a long time. And some can't take it anymore and decide to end it themselves.
Thankfully therapists and support options are widely available, so those kind of scenarios are really rare, like... suicide accounts for about three out of a hundred thousand deaths last time I saw those charts. Plus drones and automation take care of most of the dangerous tasks, leaving the vast majority of cases to be caused by interpersonal relations actually. A broken heart is one of those traumas we'll never get rid of it seems. That's just life, I guess."

They rushed him, he saw the gun in ones hand. But that's not what he thought. The only thing going through his head was the couple, and how the woman was made a widow before his eyes.
Then there were no thoughts, only actions...

It'd gone wrong and now he's back on the run. At least Barney gave him his trusty crowbar, felt good to have it back. Gordon Stared at the Citadel, its alarms blaring in the distance and rumbling across City 17. He needs to get Black Mesa East as they called it, This is gonna suck...

Took a walk, found something!
I found a swing! just in a little abandoned playground, there was only one in the whole swingset. I still swung on it, and it was very fun. Moral of the story, go hiking more often

Humans are Weird thoughts:
sometimes its wild how humans can get so engrossed in something small and forget about the rest of the world
i dont mean like focusing on the small problems in their life i mean focusing on the problems in their environment and then across the globe the environmental concerns are so different
"hot all the time" ah yes but have you considered driving in the snow?
but also the adaptations that humans make in order to be able to thrive in that space with those environmental concerns
eg: salting the roads, plugging their car into electricity so it can start the next mornings, shoes?? with metal?? to stand better?
on a similar but tangentially related topic who the hell was like "strap blades to shoes to walk on ice" that's bizarre.
imagine being an alien living on an ice planet and humans show up with big furs and boots and then you tell them travelling might be hard because all the roads are ice and they light up like "i prepared for this" and they have knife boots
or like, on a space ship you see a human preparing a bag of what looks like grains and they're about to heat them and the human goes "wait watch this" and the grains explode into white stuff that's soft and not grain like at all
another weird one could be like... say you're a hairless alien, whether you're scaled or membrane skinned or otherwise, and you see their hair cover their eyes and think "oh yeah they can't see me anymore" but then you get closer and they just jump at you because they could see you all along
hypothesis: humans have strange creations and nothing makes sense. further studies required

Seeing the teleporter for the first time, Gordon doesnt think too highly of it. I mean he's a scientist, seeing something so slapdash is probably not a seal of approval. Although he doubts OSHA exists anymore.
But If Kleiner trusts it... Just hope it goes well.
