    Special Containment Procedures:

    McMurdo station posing as an antarctic research base but its actually an scp site looking over the falls at a distance

    several guards are positioned around, misinformation is spread

    Description:

    is literally blood, misinformation about iron oxides or whatever has been spread, preliminary exploration by research REDACTED caused him to fall into a cavern filled with blood and flesh, a large 'capillarie', which swept him away. we thought he was dead, and sealed off the area for further investigation w/ drones, which were rejected violently. then, his backpack and equipment suddenly shot out containing a notebook w/ photos and videos of his 'adventure'.

    basically this fleshy cavern extends deep within Antarctica, miles at least. he very rapidly loses his mind, evident by the notes, talking about how the nerves in the walls keep trying to connect to him when he stops, how it pushes him farther down (meaning he has no choice but to venture down), how when he gets too connected to the nerves he starts to 'feel' things miles away

    eventually he gives in to the psionic/telepathic 'voices' trying to get him to 'join' this flesh and winds up revealing that the flesh is alive. his notes end cryptically. a terminally ill foundation member determines that the flesh rejects machinery, and it wants more people, and volunteers to lead an expedition into the flesh tunnel w/ equipment to gather as much science as possible.

    his journey is broadcast back, and ends with the slow build-up of a 'thumping' noise as he went deeper and farther, which eventually starts to sound like a heartbeat. he doesn't quite reach the heart, but he does send back the information that this 'creature' is buried under the Antarctic ice and the Heart is at least twenty five miles deep. it ends with the implication that this 'creature' has MULTIPLE hearts, and that it only gets bigger the deeper you go, that it is sentient, and that it extends many hundreds of miles beneath the earth's crust.
