Trying Human is a science-fiction webcomic by Emy Bitner.Rose Marie Williams is a secretary and filing clerk for a New York City police station. She frequently suffers from nosebleeds and what she thinks are episodes of sleepwalking, but actually, she has been being abducted by a group of aliens. One of the aliens, Hue, is not like the others. Also, he's smitten with her.The story also follows Roger, Rose's on-again off-again boyfriend who winds up as the newest recruit to the Majestic 12, and Phillis, an Air Force translator in the 1940s whose mysterious connection with EBE1, the castaway alien (later Hue's genetic father) somehow resulted in her death. | |

Rape as Drama | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: The flashback at the beginning of chapter 26. Dr. Glasner got intrusive with Phillis, knocked her unconscious when she resisted, and raped her. When Phillis regained her consciousness, she appeared to be deeply in shock and just staggered off, her clothes disheveled and blood on her face. | |

Rescue Romance: 8 seems to be trying to induce this with Roger, since he helped her out years ago, and says that she was the one who recommended him for the job. It's not really working. Though it's not their first meeting, Longus rescues Don from a couple of thugs, which kickstarts their relationship. | |

Green-Eyed Monster: Roger, who's already rather stressed, reacts very violently when he sees his girlfriend with Hue. Bit of a Double Standard, really, as he has blatantly flirted with his colleague 3 (and possibly with 8) during the time he and Rose were apart. | |

Ditto Aliens: The Greys are all physically identical other than eye color. Justified in that they've been genetically streamlined for deep-space travel and unique phenotypes were probably seen as superfluous and dropped from their genetic code. | |

Older Than They Look: Besides Glasner, The Greys don't really seem to age — Pigment first came to Earth about thirty years before the present day plot started and she looks the same. EBE1 is probably older than she is and hasn't aged a day, either, since the 1940's. | |

Please, I Will Do Anything!: When Dr. Glasner and the commanders of Area 51 suggest that EBE1 will be euthanized due to his hostile behavior, Phillis pleads with Glasner, saying she'll do anything to stop this. Glasner ominously repeats "anything", then concedes to her wish. Whether or not her current condition is the price she had to pay is yet to be seen. | |

Fake Memories: Standard issue for all the abductees. Some retain a vague sense of having been kidnapped, but the effect just won't take with Rose because she's a half-Nordic. | |

Uncanny Valley | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_6b5a92dc | comment |
Uncanny Valley: Besides the fact that they are kidnapping people for experiments, this is why Rose is afraid of Shade and Tone. Hue is much less uncanny to her, because he shows emotions and has a wider range of facial expressions. | |

Punny Name: Guinea and Pig escaped Area 51 after Glasner used them for a particularly vile experiment — it involved making a Half-Human Hybrid out of their genes (without as much as by-your-leave) and inflicting a Wound That Will Not Heal on Pigment. | |

In-Series Nickname | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_7360806f | comment |
In-Series Nickname: EBE1 always refers to Phillis as "Philena", a contraction of her first name and her last name, "Lennox." The "Philena, queen of the moon" implies some mythological association he's having. Also, Guinea and Pig, to the point Rose is confused when she hears Pig referring to her partner by his actual name, John. | |

Arc Words | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_7464705c | comment |
Arc Words: "Red" is important for as-of-yet undisclosed reasons. It's implied that it has to do with Shade, who has red eyes, or Rose, who has red hair. The catatonic Phillis has red pupils. This appeared for the first time when EBE1 initiated their telepathic bond and seemed to become more frequent since then. Phillis also appears in a nightmare / vision of Hue with blank, completely red eyes. When EBE1 joins Phillis in the base's chapel, one of the candles' flames turns red for no apparent reason. Abigail's journal has red covers. In every vision she appears to Rose, Phillis tells her something regarding "red", i. e. trying to sell her a red watch or showing her a red rose that fell out of its flower pot. Rose's hair is shown to have been blonde, not red, when she was a child. This change is revealed to be due to her Nordic half. Like the Greys, their race is dying out, albeit much slower, so they edited their DNA so that their hair will grow out red if and when they're fertile. Rose's hair has been red since she turned 13, presumably when she had her first period, and has remained such ever since. Upon meeting Rose, EBE1 asks her to "let him see her red". Pigment mentions a "red room" which holds some secrets. | |

Handshake Refusal: Seems to be a Reptoid thing — Longus declines a handshake with Roger, Quazky with Don. In Quazky's case, it may be him not understanding human customs, but Longus has lived on Earth among humans for a long time and seems seriously put off by the idea of shaking Roger's hand. | |

Interspecies Romance | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_8485d41a | comment |
Interspecies Romance: All over the place, in many different flavours. Grey EBE1 and human Phillis definitely had something going on, though the exact nature of their relationship is still a bit unclear. Hue is in love with Rose, and recently, it seems she has begun reciprocating. Hue is a Grey, Rose half Nordic, half human. Guinea and Pig, human and Grey respectively, have either this or a profound Interspecies Friendship. They have a child together, although this was done without either's consent, and Guinea didn't even know Glasner used his genes to impregnate Pig until the baby was born. But they took the kid with them, escaping, and raise him together. Longus, a Terran Reptoid, and Don, a human teenager. Quazky and Gracelis, since he's a Terran Reptoid and she's Draconian. They too have a kid together, but have left him in terran jungle to fend for himself, because this sort of thing is strictly forbidden. Rose herself is a product of a rather one-sided one. Her Nordic mother doesn't seem to care a lot for her human father. He pined after she left to the point of drinking himself to death. | |

Stalker with a Crush: Longus had apparently taken to "keeping an eye" on Don whenever he was off work. Hue also fits the description. Abducting Rose in her sleep when it's not her turn to be taken, showing up at her apartment uninvited... though the surroundings he's grown up in have abductions as a daily porcedure, and he cannot possibly know human social norms. | |

Creepy Cute: Hue (having bigger eyes than most Greys helps), and most noticeably, the Reptoids as a whole. They are human-eating lizard aliens, but have Cute Little Fangs and amusing dialogue that makes it hard to think they're creepy at all. Even Magnus manages a few humorous lines, usually targeted at Quazky. | |

Wham Episode | |

Wham Episode: Chapter 17: Phillis has a telepathically-induced freakout when Glasner stabs EBE1's prosthetic hand with a scalpel to demonstrate that it can feel pain. Longus shows Don what he really is. Roger discovers that Hue has been spending time with Rose, and shoots him (non-fatally) in a jealous rage. Shade wipes Rose's memories of her alien encounters, and reveals to Hue that his own memories of earlier encounters with Rose had been erased. Chapter 19, where Roger goes off the deep end, trying to murder Hue and Quazky just because he has seen them near Rose's apartment and then going home to slap Rose hard across the face. The ending of chapter 25: Longus gets Quazky to do his foul bidding. Roger accuses 8 of leaking intel to the Greys, and, when 6 attempts to take the blame, Roger shoots him. In the head. With Glassner's approval. 8 breaks down. Chapter 26: EBE1 readily admits to Hue that he's not a clone. With a Wham Line: "When you find Walter Edwards, tell him I was not aiming for her." | |

Face–Heel Turn: Roger seems to be undergoing one during the latest chapters, going from easy-going goofball fish out of water to almost sadistic glee at chasing down and hurting Hue, possibly justified slightly due to Hue not actually leaving Rose alone. And then he starts behaving increasingly paranoid and abusive towards Rose, culminating in slapping her hard across the face. | |

Emotionless Aliens: The Greys have emotions, but they're very different from human ones, and Hue is considered defective because he acts like a human. However, if anything, the other aliens are sometimes more emotional and expressive than the human characters. | |

To Serve Man | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_bd8b2b0b | comment |
To Serve Man: The Reptoids in general eat human and animal flesh alike, though they have varying attitudes about this. Magnus considers eating livestock instead of humans unsatisfying, while Longus honestly prefers pig and has never killed a human himself - he has eaten humans when they were dead and dished to him, but meanwhile, having lived twenty-something years among humans on earth, he finds it weird to regard them as food. | |

Psychic Dreams for Everyone | |

Psychic Dreams for Everyone: 8 dreams of the events from the prologue, with herself and Travis in place of Phyllis and her baby. There's also the self-called "Mothman" who gives Rose some cryptic hints about the future (part of which already happened), then says he needs to sleep and get some more visions. Rose gets very odd, very symbolic dreams, often featuring Phillis. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_f5a3e496 | comment |
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Rose to Phillis, despite the former being redheaded and the latter being blonde. EBE1 has noticed. In her childhood picture (and one dream sequence), Rose is blonde... This is because she's half Nordic. The race as a whole edited their DNA so any newly grown hair is red while fertile, and once this period ends, new hair becomes blonde again, leaving patches of red years later. Being half human, Rose has been able to have kids since she was 13 so her hair continuously grows red and will likely revert to blonde when she hits menopause. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Trying Human (Webcomic) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: The Greys are named Hue, Shade, Tone, and Pigment. Only EBE1 doesn't fit this pattern, but it's because his "name" is actually a designation given to him by the U.S. Government (his real name hasn't been revealed). According to Glasner, the practice of using names is a foreign concept to the Greys, so presumably their common names were also given to them by humans. (Shade is also referred to as EBE3 in one scene.) The Half-Human Hybrid Ovni was named by John. Pigment's entire reaction: Barring Quazky, all the Reptoids are named after (human) muscles or muscle groups. | |
