SCP-7065 is placed on a strict Paleolithic diet[[footnote]]An eating plan based on foods humans consumed during the Paleolithic era.[[/footnote]] and to be regularly supplied with painkillers upon request. SCP-7065-A is regularly monitored with ultrasonography equipment. Proposals detailing SCP-7065-A's extraction is to be submitted to Dr. Ivers before approval. Any changes to SCP-7065-A's behavior is also to be immediately reported to Dr. Ivers. **Description:** SCP-7065 is Richard Pinnel, age 36. SCP-7065 is non-anomalous with exception of their relationship to SCP-7065-A. SCP-7065-A is a worm-like organism measuring over six meters in length. While SCP-7065-A's anatomy shares similarities to the Cestoda family[[footnote]]Tapeworm.[[/footnote]], it possesses multiple biological and behavioral deviations. Among these include: * Hot pink-colored skin. The skin is reported to have a texture similar to sandpaper. * Abundance of black pincer-like antennas on its skin. The purpose of these antennas appear to primarily anchor itself to nearby surfaces. * A singular, circular toothy maw instead of a typical scolex; several of its teeth are missing. * Three clitellums; the middlemost one is visibly bloated and inflamed. * Is cold-blooded. SCP-7065-A's main anomalous property is its ambulatory nature: the entity is capable of migrating throughout SCP-7065's body, which it achieves by burrowing through their flesh. How SCP-7065-A accomplishes this is unclear; while the process is extremely painful it does not cause SCP-7065 permanent harm. Although SCP-7065-A can migrate anywhere, it prefers to reside inside the intestinal track. Otherwise, SCP-7065-A's behavior follows that of standard tapeworms. **Addedunum-7065.1:** The Foundation became aware of SCP-7065 in the aftermath of an automobile crash on the Interstate Highway in Dallas, Texas. SCP-7065 was delivered to a local hospital and subjected to an X-Ray scan, revealing SCP-7065-A and its anomalous behavior. All relevant hospital records and parties were confiscated and amnesticized respectively. SCP-7065 attempted to vomit and began striking its fists against their abdomen before being detained by Foundation assets. SCP-7065 themselves exhibited multiple health ailments relating to sleep deprivation, rapid weight loss, and severe salmonella poisoning -- the effects of which became so detrimental that the entity had to be placed on IV nutritional therapy to ensure their well-being. After being transported to Site-17, Dr. Ivers interviewed SCP-7065. ----- [[=]] [[collapsible show="▶ ACCESS SCiPNET:/7065/Ivers/Interview1 ◀" hide="▷ CLOSE FILE ◁"]] [[<]] > = **[BEGIN LOG]** > > **Dr. Ivers:** Hello, My name is-- > > **SCP-7065:** Get it out. > > **Dr. Ivers:** I'm sorry? > > //[SCP-7065 has bags under their eyes and is shaking slightly in their chair.

Dr. Ivers and Agent Rodney rush to approach SCP-7065 before SCP-7065-A emerges from the former entity's mouth, burrowing through their hand. SCP-7065-A squeals.]// > > **Dr. Ivers:** Holy-- > > **Agent Rodney:** Shit! > > //[SCP-7065-A swings back and knocks the coffee cup from Agent Rodney's grasp, spilling it on the floor.

Segments of SCP-7065-A's body contract and expand; the liquid can be seen going through the entity, through SCP-7065-A's hand and mouth. SCP-7065-A tears up as it writhes and twitches on the floor. It spots the pen, takes it, and writes on the floor.]// > > //[**"OUT"**]// > > //[Dr. Ivers continues to stare as the medical team enters the interview room. Dr. Ivers narrows his eyes and nods firmly.]// > > = **[END LOG]** [[/<]] [[/collapsible]] [[/=]] ----- **Addedunum-7065.2:** Dr. Ivers submitted a request for the extraction of SCP-7065-A from SCP-7065 on the basis that if not removed, the anomaly would be at high risk of self-neutralization. Upon gaining approval from Site Director Thomas Graham, Dr. Ivers authorized a series of tests in hopes of separating both entities. Attached below is an abridged log of notable events concerning SCP-7065. To see the full list, contact Dr. Ivers: ----- [[=]] [[collapsible show="▶ ACCESS SCiPNET:/7065/Event Log/File Count: 7 ◀" hide="▷ CLOSE FILE ◁"]] [[<]] > **Test #:** 01 > > **Proposal:** SCP-7065 is to be administered various different types of anthelmintic medication and foodstuffs to gauge SCP-7065-A's reaction. > > **Results:** SCP-7065-A responded indifferently to all medication and foodstuffs with exception to those containing high amounts of overcooked meat and salt. This caused the entity to move erratically before becoming lethargic for the majority of the day. Reviewing the test's success, Dr. Ivers ordered SCP-7065 to be on a carnivorous diet. > > **Notes:** N/A > **Test #:** 13 > > **Proposal:** After learning SCP-7065-A was susceptible to cold temperatures from a previous test, ice packs were to be placed on designated areas of SCP-7065's body to prompt the entity to evacuate the body. > > **Results:** SCP-7065-A violently shuddered for ten minutes. SCP-7065-A then burrowed sporadically around SCP-7065's liver and skeletal muscles; SCP-7065 experienced moderate pain and reported feeling 'getting a rope burn' under their skin. SCP-7065-A's ceased its burrowing when the ice packs were removed and the entity curled around SCP-7065's liver. > > **Notes:** SCP-7065-A has started to rest near SCP-7065's pectoral muscles and umbilical region. > **Test #:** 19 > > **Proposal:** Electricity is to be administered to specific regions of SCP-7065's body, forcing SCP-7065-A to evacuate. The voltage is adjusted to not cause permanent harm to SCP-7065, who is sedated during the procedure. > > **Results:** After locating SCP-7065-A in the kneecap, a controlled electric shock was applied to the right thigh. SCP-7065-A convulsed, staying in place. After the third shock, it burrowed straight to SCP-7065's ribcage and wrapped curled around its aorta. Any electric shock now applied to the body was now amplified, and conducted straight into SCP-7065's heart. The entity resumed normal behavior a day after the test was aborted. > > **Notes:** SCP-7065 exhibited mood swings and prolonged nausea after Test 19 for the next nine weeks. > **Test #:** 26 > > **Proposal:** Unsatisfied with the project's progress, Dr. Ivers ordered SCP-7065's dietary portions to be doubled in hopes of further weakening the creature. > > **Results:** SCP-7065 consumed pretzels and burnt steak. However, the chewed up foodstuffs would quickly be ejected from SCP-7065's mouth. Ultrasound imaging reveals SCP-7065-A to position itself with SCP-7065's esophagus and propel the foodstuff in real time.[[footnote]]Foodstuffs introduced via a gastrostomy tube was ejected as well.[[/footnote]] SCP-7065-A seems to repeat this process to most food items with the only exception being raw meat. > > **Notes:** SCP-7065 was placed on an emergency peripheral parenteral nutrition IV drip. > **Test #:** 27 > > **Proposal:** SCP-7065 is to be positioned in front of an entrapment unit containing one entire raw chicken. SCP-7065 will open their mouths and wait for SCP-7065-A to enter the unit, restraining the entity. > > **Results:** SCP-7065 followed instructions but SCP-7065-A did not emerge. Half an hour into the test, SCP-7065 held their abdomen and collapsed to the floor in excruciating pain. Ultrasound imaging showed SCP-7065-A nibbling on SCP-7065's spleen. Citing SCP-7065's advancement of its emaciated state, Dr. Ivers ordered SCP-7065 to be placed on a highly restrictive Paleolithic diet. The entity immediately left the spleen alone. When interviewed about the new diet SCP-7065 expressed immense disappointment, stating it was 'fun while it lasted.' SCP-7065 did not elaborate. > > **Notes:** SCP-7065-A's middle clitellum, after subsequent feedings, grew in size. The entity now preferred to stay within the boundaries of the intestinal tract. > **Test #:** 33 > > **Proposal:** SCP-7065 is to be anaesthetized. SCP-7065-A is to be surgically removed. > > **Results:** Jared Lamb, the lead surgeon, made an incision on SCP-7065's abdomen -- SCP-7065-A was absent. Lamb ordered his assistant to use the ultrasound -- SCP-7065-A was still absent. A quiet sizzling sound emanated underneath the surgical table. Lamb looked down and was attacked by SCP-7065-A, who punctured his abdomen. Lamb's screams were soon muffled when SCP-7065-A emerged from his mouth. > > Nearby security guards wielding riot gear attempt to assist Lamb. SCP-7065-A reacted by spewing a dark yellow, liquid substance at the guards, resulting in severe caustic burns.[[footnote]]The liquid was later found to be chemically similar to human stomach acid.[[/footnote]] The surgeons backed away or fled the room. SCP-7065-A hissed at Lamb, then gripped its maw on his left eye. Lamb's screams turned into murmurs as SCP-7065-A slowly tunneled through the socket, emerging from the back of his head. > > SCP-7065-A swallowed the organ, retracted out of Lamb, and redirected its attention onto their host. The entity then bit into SCP-7065's liver, making a loud sucking sound before detaching. SCP-7065-A then spewed a green liquid onto the incision, which it followed up by burrowing directly on the surface of the skin.[[footnote]]Camera footage showed SCP-7065-A consuming the damage tissue and defecating the regenerated tissue simultaneously.[[/footnote]]. > > After the incision was healed, SCP-7065-A retreated back under the table. A response team entered the room, putting Lamb onto a stretcher.[[footnote]]Funds to support Lamb's ocular replacement and memory therapy was directly allocated from Dr. Ivers' paycheck by orders of Site Director Graham.[[/footnote]] > > **Notes:** In spite of the team's preparations the experiment ultimately resulted in failure. SCP-7065-A has not left the intestinal tract since post-surgery. Ultrasound imaging shows SCP-7065-A to be resting in a curling positing, wrapping itself around its swollen clitellum. Elevated levels of testosterone, estrogen, and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) was found in SCP-7065's body during this time. > **Test #:** 37 > > **Proposal:** One last ultrasound was conducted hours prior to another attempt at surgical extraction > > **Results:** Ultrasound imaging depicted SCP-7065-A resting until it rotated its body. The entity now sported a human eyeball on its middle clitellum, which has grown to the point of putting immense strain on the entity's skin. The eyeball pulsed and twitched as its line of sight followed each of the human individuals in the room at the time. SCP-7065's tongue swirled in its maw, leaking acid. Surgery canceled. > > **Notes:** The surgery was postponed pending further instructions. [[/<]] [[/collapsible]] [[/=]] ----- **Addedunum-7065.3:** Following the conclusion of the thirty-seventh test imaging showed that SCP-7065-A had shrunken to 12 centimeters and appeared to be deceased. Due to this and Dr. Ivers' insistence, the entity was able to be successfully extracted through non-invasive means. Scientific analysis conducted on SCP-7065-A's carcass confirmed it to be a hermaphrodite and is genetically closer to the common earthworm than any other Annelid. An autopsy revealed that SCP-7065-A expired from internal hemorrhaging, indicated by its middle clitellum being deflated. Other than the loss of its teeth, no other injuries were visible postmortem. However, after the anomaly was declared neutralized, SCP-7065 commented on a lingering pain originating in their abdomen. Ultrasound imaging showed that remnants of SCP-7065-A's teeth were located in SCP-7065's digestive organs, more specifically near the esophageal, pyloric, and ileocecal sphincters. These teeth were planned to be surgically removed when a sudden complication arose. ----- [[=]] [[collapsible show="▶ ACCESS SCiPNET:/7065/Ivers/Interview2 ◀" hide="▷ CLOSE FILE ◁"]] [[<]] > = **[BEGIN LOG]** > > **Dr. Ivers:** And how are you feeling today, SCP-7065? > > **SCP-7065:** Like crap. > > //[SCP-7065 is resting in their bed and has regained their muscle mass.

I get dumped somewhere without any recollection of this year. That doesn't seem fair. > > **Dr. Ivers:** To be fair, do you //want// to remember all this? > > **SCP-7065:** ...Touché. > > **Dr. Ivers:** Look, I'm sorry but it's the rules. It's for security reasons, you know? But we'll do our best to get your life back on track. A cover story here, a financial pick-me-up there, it'll be like nothing changed at all. It's the best you're going to get I'm afraid. > > **SCP-7065:** Ugh... fine. I can live with that. At least that freak won't be stealing my portions again. Speaking of which... Thank you! Right here, thanks. > > //[A nurse enters the room and sets a tray of orange juice and tomato soup in SCP-7065's lap. The nurse leaves.

A white worm-like entity emerges from SCP-7065's jaw and stares at them. SCP-7065 shrieks and calls for help. SCP-7065's voice, however, is coming directly from the worm.
