Ooze

Don't touch that!   ... And why were about to touch it, anyway? Yuck.   Yeah, it was moving, of course it was moving. That is no reason to touch it and, how else did you expect them to go from one place to another? Not everything in this world can magically teleport from one place to another like the Witnesses.   Yes, that is an animal. No, not a colony of microorganisms or what's left of something that used to be alive. It is a perfecly normal Ooze. They are nervous, lovely little creatures that feed on beuty and immediately produce a chemical that makes people either creative or sleepy depending on how was their day, makes other s healthy or as kind as they nature allows, and triggers the formation of friendly beings and useful objects.   I heard people in the City of the lost tries to lure them with beautiful decoration, music, or gardens, whenever they are tired (or emotionally drained) but can't sleep well or for enough time, or when they have issues to design some solution at their jobs.   It's a pity that they are so scared of everything and everyone that they feel the need to attack anything that touches them. One would say that they would have enough with being able to seep through anything and having a body impossible to punch, stab or cut. But no! They also have the nasty habit of infiltrating your body if they feel threatened, and that can be really dangerous.   So, as I just said, don't touch it. If you want to flirt with death or touch ugly things there are plenty of ways of doing so without tormenting an already scared little animal.
