Melba Manners is a supporting character in Pet Alien.

History[]

Melba is the arch-enemy of Tommy. She enjoys forcing him to do tedious or tiresome tasks and has a loud and shrill voice. She is also an exceptionally clever opponent in staring contests. Despite her last name, she is very impolite. Like the other humans, she is too stupid and ignorant to realize that the aliens are aliens. She just calls them Tommy's "things".

Personality[]

Melba is an extremely bossy, ill-mannered, bullying brat who often forces other people (particularly Tommy) to do things for her. She is extremely short-tempered and frequently attacks those who anger her, such as the building. Even when calm, she is very blunt and doesn't mince words when picking apart other people's flaws or mistakes, usually to build herself up. She seeks praise and admiration from everyone, seeing as she only dated Granville when he complimented her with romantic poetry.

Physical Appearance[]

Melba is a 13-year-old girl who has amber eyes, fair skin, and red hair styled in pigtails. She wears pink eyeshadow, black mascara and blush. Melba's most common outfit consists of a red shirt, pink skirt, white socks and red and white shoes.

Melba's sleepwear consists of a white nightgown with red hearts printed on it.

Relationships[]

Melba and Tommy are eternal enemies and absolutely despise each other, to the point of insulting and yelling at each other whenever they have to interact (which is often, since they're neighbors). Melba frequently drags Tommy into menial tasks, such as building her a parade float or babysitting someone's kid for her. However, she has rare moments of civility towards Tommy whenever she's not angered, and has even been nice to him on occasion, such as offering to sign his cast in or going out into the rain to check if he was okay during a blackout. Notably, while she has beat up Granville and the aliens, she has never physically harmed Tommy, stating that it's because she won't hit someone who screams like a little girl.

Melba hates the aliens because they always wreck havoc on the town, are complete idiots, always call her "Crabby Neighbor" and play Ding Dong Ditch around her house. This often results in her beating the aliens senseless or telling Tommy to keep them away from her. Like all of the humans, she is too stupid to tell that they are aliens and only calls them, "Things".

Granville is creepily obsessed with Melba and stalks her frequently, having cameras hidden around her house. He feels he’s entitled to have her and tries to eliminate anyone who gets in his way. Whenever Granville tries to seduce Melba, it always results in her beating him up or slamming the door in his face. The two did start dating in one episode, but that was only because Granville sang epic Shakespearean poems that praised and complimented Melba. She dumps him at the end of the episode after he stopped doing the poems (that, and figuring out that he stole them from Gumpers).
