That is the very unsettling line of thought I was following....
And it's... it's set up. I just remembered. In the very first bit when the hunters go after him they're talking about runewriters turning into demons/aberrants.

I am thinking that too. And that is awful. Very awful D:

The one dubiously encouraging point I ran across in my reread was that the previous facestealer encounter involved it mimicking a person it had just eaten. It got the accent wrong and got stabbed, but... um, there's a possibility Sev can learn to shapeshift back into his own usual shape, more or less, rather than gloopy mess and/or door?
...I did say dubiously encouraging.

... I wish I could upvote comments, I hadn't thought of that. MAN.
Now, the thing is, people have been talking about the hunters being more trigger happy than usual, and talking about things going wrong or strange. The aberrants are common knowledge, and it seems they've been around for long enough that full institutions for dealing with them have sprung up. If how aberrants had always come to be was that a runewriter turns into an aberrant, it'd be hard to keep that completely secret like this. I don't think runewriters turning into aberrants is how they normally work, I think it's only started happening recently.

D8 So if Sev has just unwillingly transformed into what anyone would assume was a functioning abberant, where are all the abberants being destroyed there coming from?
