Looking back over the week it seems a shame that this prompt didn't come on Thursday :)

A chill in the air
Charles Asciugimento, Head of Building Security, felt the chill building in the air around him. Two of his better security guards trained their guns on the thing that was clinging to the wall looking like an over-size daddy-long-legs crossed with an attractive woman. Well, attractive if you liked smooth egg shaped heads with only a nose and ears and unscarred skin where the eyes and mouth should be.
"Bring it in," he said waving a hand, "and we'll see if we can find a way to question it."
