Who let them cook-???

Item #: SCP-OC-833

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Must be kept away from the outside world at all times. If necessary for it to be out in public, then the subject’s face must be covered up at all times. Any incident involving non-foundation personnel will involve the use of Class C, or Class B, amnestics to civilians who have witnessed it.

Although SCP-OC-833-B does not mind being referred to with standard pronouns (it/its), using [they/them], or other such ways to refer to them (he/her/xe) is recommended.

SCP-OC-833-A is a large swarm of insects, consisting of those specifically of the Apis mellifera (European honey bee), Vespa crabro (European hornet), and Vespula germanica (European wasp) species.

By itself, a single SCP-OC-833-A instance acts similar to a regular creature of its species. No anomalous effects have been recorded in this state.

However, should multiple instances gather together, they appear to gain the ability to transform—or warp one’s vision to allow themselves to appear as such—into various mammals, fish, and birds.

All attempts appear to have slight or mild flaws, such as having one too many eyes or limbs, and will act unlike their supposed imitations.

These illusions are considered as SCP-OC-833-B, due to the unusual properties they commonly present, often times entirely separate from the -A instances themselves.

SCP-OC-833-A requires the same needs as a regular kind of its various species; such as nectar, other insects, and meat.

Although it is normal for wasps and hornets to consume meat, -A instances appear to have a preference for human carrion.

The current form of SCP-OC-833-B that -A instances have taken form of is in the shape of an androgynous humanoid, with blonde(?) hair, four eyes, and seemingly of Asian descent.

(As of Addendum OC-833-1, it has been deiscocered that the ‘hair’ of SCP-OC-833-B is entirely consisted of a mix of hair and honey. It is highly recommended not to touch (or eat. That goes to you, Dr. Clef.) their hair, as it contains copious amounts of arsenic and lead.

SCP-OC-833-B is currently employed at Site-CR-27 (See Addendum OC-833-2 for more information), as a Level 3 Researcher. They are aware of their own file, yet only seem to care about grammatical errors in the work.

Dr. “Swarm” is SCP-OC-833-B.

Interview OC-833-5

The fifth interview with SCP-OC-833-B. Previous interviews had shown subject to be compliant and cooperative with staff.

Dr. Sever: Good afternoon, Dr. Swarm.

SCP-OC-883-B: …Hello, Sir.

Dr. Sever: Do you happen to know the circumstances between you and SCP-OC-833-A?

SCP-OC-833-B: Are you perhaps referring to me?

Dr. Sever: ..pardon?

SCP-OC-833-B: You seem to believe that -A is separate from us. I suppose you would be half-correct in your assertion.

SCP-OC-833-B: We are different, yet the same. I am the host, but we are also the creation.

Dr. Sever: Apologies, Dr. Swarm, but I’m afraid I don’t understand.

[SCP-OC-833-B shakes their head, appearing somewhat frustrated at Dr. Sever, likely due to the lack of comprehension he has shown.]

SCP-OC-833-B: No. No, you will not. You are unlikely to ever understand us. To understand me. For that, I cannot apologize. Our own nature is not for you to know.

[By this point, SCP-OC-833-B jumps up from the table, lunging towards Dr. Sever, and grabbing his arm. The man screams out in pain, before security manages to pry SCP-OC-833-B off from the doctor. SCP-OC-833-B’s form appears somewhat shaky, with several -A instances buzzing and flying off from the main host.]

As of Interview OC-833-5, interviews have been put to a temporary halt until research on what had occurred is finished.
