Sense Freak	comment	Humans being the kinds of creatures we are, we tend to take a lot of things for granted. Eating, for example. As a basic biological process, it gets old fast. We never really give it any thought unless we happen upon a particularly good meal. This isn't true for entities who have, for whatever reason, assumed human form. Everything we take for granted is brand new for them. In particular, whenever a nonhuman becomes humanlike, they go absolutely nuts about taste. This often happens to nonhumans who can transform, and who only rarely choose a humanlike form just to hang out with others. It's even more especially true for really alien Aliens with Bizarre Alien Senses, and even more so for creatures who don't even normally have a physical form. This and Sense Loss Sadness are two of the big reasons why Humanity Is Infectious. Oddly, this sort of thing is almost guaranteed to be totally ignored if the alien in question assumes a physical form other than human. Given the Mysterious Animal Senses trope, that's actually pretty intriguing. (But then again...) Compare Orgasmically Delicious, Hugh Mann, Showing Off the New Body, Limb-Sensation Fascination, and (ahem) Shapeshifting Squick... And speaking of Squick, see Man, I Feel Like a Woman or Breaking In Old Habits for a very specific version.

Sense Freak / int_11859033	comment	Narbonic: Caliban the ex-demon when he is incarnated as a human. While he initially enjoys it, this quickly comes back to bite him when Helen decides to torture him for information, and he is begging for mercy just from a cotton alcohol swab. Caliban ends up in a relationship with Mel almost immediately, and it quickly becomes apparent that their only activities are "talk a bit, have sex, repeat." After Mell's brief ascension to Heaven (followed by her demotion to Hell and subsequent escape), she immediately grabs Caliban for sex. She was only gone for a few weeks, but the lack of physical sensation hit her hard.

Sense Freak / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach: A non-alien example: in chapter 386, Kaname Tosen goes off his rocker after his Resurrecion grants him eyesight. He is so overwhelmed by his new vision that he leaves himself open to a sneak attack by his own former lieutenant Hisagi. Hisagi notes that Tosen would've "seen" that attack coming from a mile away if he had still been blind. Because Gremmy Thoumeaux's power allows him to materialise anything he imagines, he's never really felt what it's like to actually want anything before, because everything just comes to him as a matter of course. When he's finally confronted by Kenpachi, an enemy too strong to simply imagine away, he gets quite... enthusiastic over feeling desire (to win) for the first time in his life.

Sense Freak / int_468bebb0	comment	Discworld: The Auditors are completely objective, analytical beings. In Thief of Time, one of them took on a human body and nearly died of overstimulation after eating dry toast. When the other Auditors start taking human bodies as well, the heroes fight them off with chocolate. The first Auditor mentioned, who goes by the Punny Name of Myria LeJean, has a Heelâ€“Face Turn and realizes, at the end of the novel, that there's little place for her in the world she saved. She commits suicide by diving into a huge pool of the finest quality melted chocolate. "Borrowing" as performed by Discworld Witches (psychically possessing another being for reasons of espionage, sabotage or recreation, typically as simple an animal as possible) can be very dangerous for this reason; let yourself be drawn in too closely to the host's mind whilst carried away with the sensations of, e.g. wheeling through the sky whilst hunting prey from three miles out, and you may find your own deeply intertwined with it and beginning to lose memory of who you are or the faculties to conceive of having once been human. Or at least, having a massive craving for sugar water and rather confused thought patterns on returning and awakening from possessing an entire hive of bees. Crosses over quite a lot with Mysterious Animal Senses as well. Sergeant Angua of the City Watch has a similar problem when returning to human form. The experiences of an animal that relies mainly on smell can be quite difficult to recall in human terms. This could well be a way of explaining the Faerie's behavior in Lords and Ladies — a desire to feel a linear flow of time once again, instead of living in a place where causality has been shattered and existence is a nightmare without beginning or end. Inverted with the hiver from A Hat Full of Sky. It's revealed the reason the hiver takes over the bodies of living creatures is that its natural senses are so acute that it can sense everything at once, and millennia of sensory overload has driven it mad with fear; it favors human hosts because of humanity's ability to cope with the vastness of the cosmos by ignoring it completely.

After being turned into a sentient flower and getting trapped in a time loop for (according to Word of God) several thousand years, Big Bad Flowey/Asriel Dreemurr finally regains his old body — and takes several seconds to contemplate his regained sense of touch before attacking the player. Later during the fight, it also turns out that for all this time, he had no soul and thus was unable to feel — and regaining said ability is what prompts him to join forces with the player and sacrifice both body and soul, turning back into a flower, to stop the apocalypse he himself started.

Sense Freak / int_5d354f8	comment	Red Dwarf: In a more subtle version, Kryten becomes human in the episode "D.N.A." and has great fun making exaggerated facial expressions. Both continued and subverted at the same time when we find out just how sexually aroused a 3-million-year-old, essentially genderless being can become when transferred into the body of an average human male ... and what visual literature it is that causes said arousal. Oops. In the episode "Bodyswap", Rimmer swaps minds with Lister on the pretext of it being an effortless way for his body to undergo some disciplined exercise and dieting... and promptly overindulges in everything he had been denied since his digital resurrection, putting on several pounds instead. Eventually driven half-mad by the prospect of returning to sensationless limbo, he "steals" Lister's body and a shuttlecraft for a doughnut-fueled joyride, only being stopped by his own terrible piloting... though he still had at least one go at "borrowing" the Cat's body afterwards. Not to mention (female) officer Brown's reaction at being ported into the distinctly unladylike Lister in the opening minutes of the same episode, despite the grave danger that prompted the swap... Rimmer gets another (brief) moment of this at the end of "Timeslides", when changing the past eventually changes everything back to normal except that he is now somehow alive. It doesn't last long. Red Dwarf in general seems to love this kind of idea — a very pure, if inverted form of it must be the Emohawk, which has no emotions of its own and actually feeds by stealing others' moods and feelings (a rather particular type of sense, to be sure — luckily none of them had their sense of humor stolen).

The enjoyment of experiencing things through another body, whether mundane or something you'd never normally have a chance of doing, has led to enough of a business to spawn its own extreme sport, porn, and soap opera stars and breakout hits. During the mission, most of the sensations Case gets from Molly are unpleasant ones, like having her broken leg re-fracture during a fight or having Riviera smash one of her lens implants. Oddly, Case only gets a bit of a jolt when Molly gives them both a nipple tweak — must be all that enforced cold turkey from the drug-reactive slow-release capsules sewn into his arteries dulling the brain's sensory cortex.

While this is often done to be able to go undercover in a way that a fifty-foot reptile can't, at least one has remarked on the lovely sensitive version of touch that we have. Dragons have vastly superior sight, hearing, smell, and taste, but all those super-armored scales get in the way of fine tactile sensation. The Great Dragon Vasdenjas even admitted that this applies to the "romantic arts", a concept which entirely squicked his ghost-writer.

Sense Freak / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: In 3.5th Edition, the Shadar-kai were a race of fey who unwillingly tied themselves to the Plane of Shadow. To avoid fading away into nothingness, they constantly seek extreme sensations to stimulate them, though their actual ability to feel is degraded. Traditional "tools" for this purpose include the charming Gal-Ralan, spiked bracers of Cold Iron, a metal that pains fey with its mere touch, which mount the spikes inside the bracers so as to drive a dozen spikes, six up, six down, all the way through each arm. 3.5 also has the Binder class, who summons strange spirits called Vestiges, which are generally remains of destroyed deities and similar beings. While the book acknowledges that they can easily be played as evil, their default fluff is this trope: they don't have any agenda other than being able to exist again, and each of them is more than happy to be "bound" to all sides of all conflicts everywhere, as well as every single bystander. Planescape: The Society of Sensation, aka the "Sensates", base their ethos around the fact that they live in a physical universe, and the only way to enlighten and fulfill yourself is to go out there and experience and sense as much of it as you possibly can in your lifetime. Furthermore, Sensates tend to carry items called "sensory stones" that record the sensations they encounter. This allows other Sensates to vicariously re-live the sensation merely by touching it.

While they like to mope about it, those who have the Disciplines necessary to possess people or animals become possession freaks, spending days or weeks on end possessing a host to experience all the living pleasures denied to them until they either kill the host from overindulgence/imprudence (and get a new one) or starve themselves. The strix are believed to be the source of the Beast that nags at the back of Kindred minds. They have the ability to possess humans as well as vampires in torpor. Once upon a time, their purpose was to make sure that Kindred (especially the humane ones) suffered, but after Rome (and with it, the vampiric government of the Camarilla) fell, their purpose slowly drifted, to the point that all they care about nowadays is experiencing everything a body can provide — and sometimes it's really hard to tell which driving ethos is scarier... until the game's second edition underlined that both these drives are linked. The strix exist to remind vampires that they are not human; they are dead meat that hungers, craves, and desires.

It's explained in one episode that the aliens started off with a very poor sense of taste, so they could only taste things that were either extremely spicy or extremely sweet, hence the tabasco. Their sense of taste eventually became stronger, but they still used tabasco out of habit.

The experience seems to overload their ability to focus quite often, though, and their tendency to eat anything small enough to fit in their (usually absent) mouths including small rodent characters like Wildy can cause considerable trouble. They don't actually need to eat, but they seem to greatly enjoy the taste and sensation; anything they consume is not digested but teleported to a random but fixed location. In the case of Fi, Dan's Warp-Aci, this is a small, archetypal desert island approximately two weeks "interesting" voyage from Lost Lake).

Sense Freak / int_81692f99	comment	Star Trek: In the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "By Any Other Name", the powerful Kelvans assume human form and take over the Enterprise, putting most of the crew in stasis. Kirk, Spock, Scotty, and McCoy recapture the ship by manipulating the Kelvan's senses; Scotty gets one into a drinking contest, McCoy pumps another full of stimulants, Spock psychologically manipulates another, and Kirk, naturally, seduces the female Kelvan. The Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Liaisons" features an alien dignitary who is unfamiliar with the concept of eating for pleasure until he comes to the Enterprise. You can imagine how that turns out. The same episode has two other dignitaries, each tasked to study a human emotion — the first dignitary samples pleasure in the form of eating, another dignitary tests antagonism (on Worf, of course), and a third strands Picard on an alien planet with (presumably) a human woman to find out about love. This trope doesn't have to be about taste. In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Child", where Troi has an alien baby, the child deliberately burns himself... just for the experience. Subverted in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Deja Q", in where Q is turned into a human as punishment for... well, for being Q. He describes feeling fatigue and falling asleep as a horrific experience (much as a normal human might describe an illness-induced blackout), throws his back out, gets stabbed with a fork by Guinan, and generally has a miserable time of it. To give an example of his opinion on being human, at one point he quips "I can now stub my toe with the best of them." And in Star Trek: First Contact, one of the ways the Borg Queen seduces Data is to give him patches of human skin, and the sensory input therein. She's also able to stop him by having the Borg cut it, introducing him to the debilitation of pain. Trouble brews in Star Trek: Generations from Data, his repaired emotion chip (reclaimed from Lore in the series two-part episode "Descent" but reluctantly put aside), and an inability of the former to control the latter (realism in action!). Both massive highs and lows, which he seeks out regardless in his continual quest for knowledge and understanding of the human condition — and eventually wishes to give up the chip as he cannot easily manage the emotional overload — unfortunately it's fused into his neural net. Not all Sense Freaking has to be from a direct external stimulus. Subverted (like so many things) in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine when Odo is forced to stay in his humanlike form as a punishment by the Founders. When Sisko goes to talk to him in the beginning of the next episode, he ruminates on the fact that the need and sensation of eating and drinking disgusts him, and that he'll just have to get used to it. Double subverted when Odo admits he finds the sound of the bubbles in his drink "soothing". When he begins to enjoy the experience of eating and drinking Sisko has to warn him not to overindulge. And subverted a different way when he really gets in touch with his roots after regaining his natural state. Instead of spending his biologically mandatory reversion time in a bucket like he used to, he gets himself some quarters and has a wide variety of stimuli sources to experiment to experiment with his shapeshifting abilities. Also, when he first makes contact with his species and joins with another changeling for the first time in his life. Even a minor joining seems to cause him immense pleasure and relief as though deprived of something he's needed his entire life. Becomes a plot point later in the series when the female changeling is able to use it to keep him distracted from helping Kira's resistance group. In one episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Weyoun samples a wide array of foods from a runabout's replicator. He comments that while the Vorta have a very dull sense of taste, he was fascinated by the various textures of the food he ate. Then there's the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Body and Soul", where The Doctor had to hide his program in Seven of Nine's body, and immediately discovered the joys of cheesecake... not to mention experiencing other physical responses, leading to the immortal line:

During the times when he has to pose as a human, he immediately goes nuts over the sensation of eating. (Andalites are mouthless centaur-like creatures in their normal form, and absorb food — typically grass — through their hooves.) He almost immediately became addicted to "Cinnamon BUNZAH!" and to chili, chocolate, cigarette stubs (!)... as a Running Gag almost all of Ax's favorite foods began with the letter C. In a "What If?'' novel and one regular timeline book, he went crazy for Oreos (OR-EE-OH!), probably as a Shout-Out to the Martian Manhunter. He also frequently references loving grease and salt. Also, Andalites don't have mouths and communicate with "Thought Speech" (telepathy), so when Ax becomes human... huuuuman, huu muh muh muh man, he loves loooooves to puh-puh-pluh- play with hissss words. This, unfortunately, tends to make him stand out. Not just restricted to Ax, either. One book has a squad of Andalites show up, and the younger, female member discovers the joys of "jelly beanzuh!" The Animorphs are so used to Ax's displays that they identify her as an Andalite the moment they hear just what she's doing. (She also asks everyone in the store what their favourite flavor/color of jellybean is, causing some parents to take away their children... quickly.) After the war, bringing Andalites to Earth, giving them human morphs, and taking them to a food court becomes a kind of niche tourism industry. The Andalites are actually willing to consider sharing morphing technology with the general human populace in exchange for a Dunkin Donuts franchise. Yeerks are subtler about this than Andalites, but it's part of what moves them away from Always Chaotic Evil. Outside their host bodies, they're blind, defenseless slugs, and controlling other organisms is the only way they can enjoy the senses other species take for granted. When Cassie morphs Yeerk and infests a human, she assumes enough Yeerkish instincts to be enthralled and delighted by the sight of a checkerboard-patterned tablecloth. Visser 3's punishment after the war is to simply be kept alive without a host, unable to see or hear.

There's an adorable reference to this in a Breather Episode of the otherwise fairly serious Justice League animated series. To emphasize this even more: one of the most powerful superheroes of all, the guy with all of Superman's superpowers plus some, quite literally has an Oreo addiction. Okay, so maybe it's not quite to the point of an addiction, but... the man likes his Oreos! In Martian Manhunter Vol. 2, #24, it became canon that for Martians, Oreos (or in this case Chocos) are addictive. Fridge Logic sets in when one considers why exactly it's processed cookies, rather than say, chocolate. However, studies show that rats actually do develop an addiction to Oreo cookies not too different from a cocaine addiction — perhaps that also applies to DC's Martians.

To avoid fading away into nothingness, they constantly seek extreme sensations to stimulate them, though their actual ability to feel is degraded. Traditional "tools" for this purpose include the charming Gal-Ralan, spiked bracers of Cold Iron, a metal that pains fey with its mere touch, which mount the spikes inside the bracers so as to drive a dozen spikes, six up, six down, all the way through each arm.

Sense Freak / int_ba06ad8b	comment	Warhammer: Slaanesh is the very literal god of this mindset, in an Eldritch Abomination kind of way. Their followers tend to have their senses dulled out by constant exposure to all kinds of stimulation, forcing them to commit more and more extreme thing to be able to feel anything. As an example, the Noise Marines from Warhammer 40,000 use devastating sonic weapons because anything less loud won't even register to them anymore. In older versions of the models these are modified electric guitars. Their armor is painted in eye-watering pink and black, because, again, nothing else even registers anymore. If you're noticing a drug abuse metaphor, that's not coincidental. In general, Slaanesh cultists indulge in anything that excites their senses, which can be just about anything from finding out what is the most aesthetically pleasing pitch a person can scream at to mindlessly staring at a wall painted a highly specific shade of purple. Slaanesh always leads to obsession, however — a simple pleasure like the sound of wood burning in a fire can be warped to the point where a Slaanesh cultist will start burning down houses just to get that sound, without even bothering to check if the house is occupied first. Warhammer 40,000: The Eldar, at the height of their golden age, succumbed to this: they had won every war, conquered every world, they ruled the galaxy. To slake their boredom, they turned to ever-increasing forms of depravity and hedonism, the collective psychic energy generated as a result coalescing in the Immaterium until Slaanesh was born.

At the game's climax, Baldur gets wounded by an arrow coated with mistletoe — his Kryptonite Factor — and loses his immortality, which results in him spending most of the Final Boss battle raving about how wonderful it is to feel pain, even remarking on the Irony that he's never felt so alive.

Sense Freak / int_c43df4d8	comment	Played with in the opening scenes of the 2010 series of Doctor Who, where a freshly regenerated Eleventh Doctor finds himself dealing not merely with the "new teeth" experienced by Doc Ten, but strangely reconfigured tastebuds. After convincing the strangely independent 8-year-old girl he meets (the soon to be much-older Amy Pond) to cook him a multitude of different foods and spitting most of them out in disgust (including a simple and later plot-important/clever callback apple), he settles on... fish-fingers with custard, as his new favorite food. It doesn't hurt that the character is seemingly in pretty much a constant state of Sense Freakery just from still being alive, though.

Both massive highs and lows, which he seeks out regardless in his continual quest for knowledge and understanding of the human condition — and eventually wishes to give up the chip as he cannot easily manage the emotional overload — unfortunately it's fused into his neural net.
