"We call it vff," said the alien. "It's - it's hard to describe to a species without vffsense. Imagine trying to describe light to a species that never evolved eyes. But there are forms of life that are only perceptible with vffsense, and they've visited Earth and fed on life as long as it's existed here."

There was a pause.

Then the human said, "That's the worst thing you've ever said."

"Don't worry about it."

"I think I have to, now."

"No, because - well - you have a species of spider which pretends to be an ant, correct? It's not capable of understanding the fact that it's mimicking an ant, but it instinctually mimics an ant in order to deter predators."

"Sure?"

"Humans produce a vff to mimic varths, predators only perceptible through vffsense. The organisms that would like to feed on you are terrified of varths, and so they leave you alone. You aren't aware you do it, you don't have the capacity to understand you're doing it, but you evolved to instinctually do it to deter predators you can't see."

There was a pause.

Then the human said in a very soft and thoughtful voice, "And are there varths on Earth?"

"Yes," said the alien. "Everywhere. But don't worry about it."

I’ve been reading those Locked Tomb books you hear about on the news, I’m on the second one right now and like. You know those married couples who need a divorce but have a kid instead and then use that kid as their pretext to stay together even though they hate each other? Now imagine that instead of having a kid, they adopted the two meanest girls at your high school, and instead of being a married couple, it’s one of those Toxic Polycules you hear about from the Pacific Northwest who put an ad in a queer housing group on facebook that’s like “you will live in a broom closet and all dishes will be your responsibility. Scorpios need not apply.” This is what every scene with John and the Lyctors is like.
