'Who the hell is that?' asked Jeffrey, startled at the sight of a humanoid creature with a face entirely covered with eye sockets. His reaction was understandable. Usually, when you get a tour around an office you expect mild surprises. Maybe a weird poster or a funny mug. What you DO NOT expect is vomit inducing, trypophobic, cosmic horror around the corner.

'What?' the manager needed a moment. 'Oh, that's Daryl, one of our copywriters. A damn good one. Don't mind him. His kinky shirts are a littler eccentric, but he's a very nice bloke.'

'Seriously?' Jeff was wondering whether he is being pranked or is the person giving him the tour absolutely insane. 'Why does he look like some sci-fi horror being?'

'Well, I know what you mean', he lowered his voice and he took Jeff to have a chat further away from the copywriter's desk. 'Some time ago Daryl had a nasty accident with a mysterious glowing meteorite. There's a whole funny story in this, about gradual changes and what not, but long story short: his body was taken over by an alien parasite. The thing is that conquering the planet was not something the parasite actually wanted to do. So at some point I've offered him to keep Daryl's job. In fact, some part of this creatures nervous system is indeed still Daryl.' an expression of pride crawled on the managers face. 'We didn't even have to change the contract!'

‘Wait…’ Jeff had additional questions, ‘...is this... safe?’

‘Sure!’, the manager seemed confident, ‘Just do not drink from his mug and you’ll be fine’.
