When the Red Twitching Larvae is consumed, it writhes and pulses as it dissolves in your mouth, staining your teeth and tongue a deep, blood-red. Your skin begins to swell and ripple unnaturally, as if countless insects are crawling just beneath the surface. Within moments, flesh sloughs off in wet, pulsing chunks, unraveling like decaying threads. Swarms of fat, glistening blood flies spill from every opening — eyes, mouth, pores — until your body collapses entirely into a buzzing, writhing cloud.
The swarm itself drifts and writhes like any mass of insects, though an astute observer might notice a disquieting coordination to its movements. The flies hover unnaturally close together, their collective hum almost rhythmic, like a pulse. Despite the grotesque spectacle, there is no immediate indication that the swarm is anything more than a natural occurrence — unless, of course, someone witnessed the gruesome transformation.
The larvae itself is a slick, crimson thing that pulses with an internal glow, unmistakably unnatural. Even before activation, it twitches and squirms of its own accord, as if eager to be consumed.
