@scp_1411: SCP-439 is an insect of unknown origin, somewhat resembling a greyish, semitranslucent Forficula auricularia (common earwig), approximately 2.5 cm in length. The true hazard this creature poses lies in its habitat construction and reproduction, which is initiated when the specimen enters the mouth of a sleeping human. Upon entering the mouth of the new host, SCP 439 will travel down the trachea and take up residence in one of the victim's lungs. Within the first three days without treatment, the host will become completely withdrawn and immobile due to the extreme pain of new bone growth coupled with difficulty breathing. At this point, the subject's body will begin the final stage of transformation into the SCP439 "bone hive" #scp1411 #scp439 #scpfoundation #drbob
