#bebe virus

1. Siren getting infected with bebe virus

Explanation: when infected the siren infection interprets infected tissue as uninfected. This results in the infection trying to re-infect the affected cells, essentially fighting off the virus.

Note: the older the siren is the longer it takes to fight off the infection. Sirens in the middle of a transformation seem to be immune.

Potential Symptoms include:

fever

Sudden and intense skin compressions (can result in: torn skin, bleeding, and sudden fin generation)

Hacking up guts and internal organs

Extreme hunger

Extreme fatigue

Deliriousness

potential risk of 'going under'

Notes: lots of food, rest and periodic infusions of siren blood usually lets the infection clear in a couple of weeks, but going to a hospital is highly recommended

There's a potential risk of being a carrier, so do not initiate contact until at least a week after symptoms subside.

3-4 bebes seem to be enough to take out a siren without intervention

Note: Bebe virus infects only through the skin once removed the subject is no longer a carrier

2. Bebe getting infected with Siren infection

Trying the traditional method

Does not work

- bebe is too dense, body could potentially chip a tooth - skin too thick to cut or puncture - blood pressure too high, average siren couldn't stomach the amount needed to be drained to even think about injecting anything

Trying with medical equipment

Preparation - subject has to loose alot of blood in order to lower blood pressure to manageable amounts

Without scaple

- Lower doses leads to temporary fever and subtle shifts of the skin. some patients develope fins or scales but most show no outward changes. - X-rays of the subject shows extreme grotesque changes within the body, partially formed fins, tails and limbs and other such apendages inside the body. - High doses leads to the patient exploding

With scaple

- Using a scaple(or a knife) to get past the think skin of the patient before injecting leads to a fuller transformation, with larger body parts erupting out of where the incision is cut. - A complete incision around a larger area results in the patient sheding it's skin in it's entirety resulting in a stunted but fully formed siren. - This also has the added affect of removing the virus though the shed skin is still infectious. - (Sirens formed in this way are also incredibly malformed and mutated looking)

3. Behaviors of a successfully infected siren or bebe

A siren fully infected with the virus seems to have a conflict with both insticts.

The bebe is more agressive and prone to biting when a human is present while more disinterested when with non-organic or non human entities.

When with a group of both human and animatronics the bebe seems to shut down as though it's brain can't figure out whether to go after humans or to act cute to create interaction, resulting in their brain kinda just giving up on them.

A partially infected bebe seems to not have the same instincts as a siren does, though the bebe does have a chance to bite humans without warning.

Both forms of infection, exluding fully infected bebes, have the chance to be able to spread both viruses
