Jam

Jam, not to be confused with Animal Jam, Fun Online Game For Kids, is a bright purple-ish pink substance produced from living Hives, and is assumed to be in parallel to The Juice in nature. It appears to have detrimental effects upon those exposed to its likeness, including altered states of mind and deformation in countless facets of the body.

## Features

The sole place Jam can properly be reproduced is the "breathing" systems of hives, and even with such in mind, it is only found in the horror's most darkest depths, most notable the vacuum . Its consistency is close to that between, as expected, pulp and honey. That being said, it tastes godawful. Do NOT attempt to eat it. Please

The mere act of being near Jam is hazardous in itself, due to the beyond swift infectious nature attributed to the preserves. When exposed to any material that is even remotely absorbent, it will immediately seep into its likeness. And yes, this, obviously, DOES include skin. In the case a being is given no choice but to be in the Jam's general vicinity, several layers of various clothing articles are typically required for prosperous immunity. If one were to accidently be put at risk and touch this substance, however, they will not experience instantaneous consequences, particularly of the permanent type. Albeit so, temporary hallucinatory aspects, bodily pains, and general vulnerability to future contact are still high viabilities. This is made most clear through the nature of its effects, too, as those who have experienced it's "touch" are said to have remarked its numbing and nearly relieving abilities. Nearly. Think of it as something between, like, ibuprofen and normal pills. Maybe those are kinda the same thing?? I don't know.

Jam is usually assumed to be a challenge to get rid of, as seen above. This remains to be false, as it is, in actuality, an incredibly sensitive solution. When put into the presentation of "air" or any general fabric of space outside the hive, in a few minutes alone the Jam will begin to bubble and disintegrate, at the cost of its unpredictable fumes entering the surrounding area. In turn, it is principally shown to be extremely fragile in the light of striking changes in heat, which can quicken the pace of its removal. However, if that is not enough, then by far one of the largest weaknesses of Jam is its inherent flammability. When struck with any sort of fire, it will, without hesitation, burst into a gigantic set of multicolor flames (think those magic powder packets you would use for camping trips.) Although the substance is promptly rid of, the surrounding area is debatably more than damaged then before, leaving the toxins released worsened and jet black stains throughout this evaporation. Small price to pay!

It is also capable of being neutralized when mixed with the Juice, having each transformative property cancel out at the given time. This doesn't mean those are suddenly immune to being infected, however. With that in mind, when a given person reaches the breaking point in subjection towards the Jam, it results in complete and utter distortion of their form, and by extension, brain, all ending with the creation of a Flayedface.
