peace and stability of the highest gravity. While 
the Organisation regrets the loss of civilian life, it 


is the unanimous opinion of the membership that 
a firm and decisive response is justified against 
the Persian state, with lesser measures serving to 
undermine any consensus towards the fragile 
order that has thus far been achieved across the 
multiverse. 


The Organisation hopes the Vietnamese people 
will stand beside them in the eternal struggle for 
freedom, as we have bonds of history, 
brotherhood and displacement that cannot be 
broken. We invite your governmental 
representatives to our next summit at 
[REDACTED].

SCP-3660: The Zoo Zipper 


NOTICE FROM SITE-64 FACILITIES AND CONTAINMENT 
ADMINISTRATIONS 


Experimentation with this item has been placed on hold until 
further notice. Please direct any concerns regarding either 
SCP-3660 or its COMARP-G2AU Authorization to Senior 
Researcher Dr. Aldrich Hanssen.

SCP-3660 


Item #: SCP-3660 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3660 is kept ina 
standard, secure locker at Site-64. Personnel handling 
SCP-3660 are required to wear gloves. Personnel handling 
SCP-3660 are required to wear full-body, hazardous material suits. 
In the event of accidental implantation, local anesthesia may be 
applied to the surrounding tissue but SCP-3660 must be surgically 
removed from the epidermis as soon as possible. 


Description: SCP-3660 is a black metal zipper, similar to those 
found on sweaters and backpacks. The item is in poor condition. A 
significant amount of its paint has been ground off, the metal is 
warped and half of its slider is missing(appearing wrenched off). 
SCP-3660 is non-anomalous and inert until it is pressed against the 
skin of a human being!. The amount of force applied can be 
disregarded when considering an implantation event. In a manner 
not dissimilar to magnetic attraction, SCP-3660 will gravitate into the 


subject if held lightly against their skin. 


In the event of implantation, SCP-3660 will sink into the flesh until 
only the pull-tab is visible. While subjects have reported feeling an 
itch at this location, significant pain is rarely reported. Major distress 
has only been observed in subjects already aware of SCP-3660’s 
effects. 


D-33313. Deceased. 


Within 10 minutes, SCP-3660 will activate and unzip the host’s skin 
by dragging itself across the epidermis before detaching from the 
skin. While resultant opening varies in size between subjects, and is 
presumed dependant on the size of the new organsism within, it is 
consistently lined with metallic zipper teeth. This process not only 
"hollows" the subject, but also gives their skin the consistency and 
composition of silicone rubber. Extreme shifts in mass have 
occurred. What SCP-3660 exactly does with the subject's viscera is 
currently unknown. 


As SCP-3660 activates, an animal will be synthesized inside the 
skin. This transfiguration is instantaneous and, theoretically, would 
require massive investments of energy. The friction involved in the 
destruction/creation of cells at this soeed should generate heat high 
enough to boil blood and damage cells. SCP-3660 bypasses this 
process entirely. Beyond a small amount of steam expelled from the 
skin's opening, there are no indications that energy dynamics have 
occurred at all. As of | experiments, only amniotes, cephalopods, 
and chondrichthyans have been created by SCP-3660. Utilizing 
species from other biological groupings is presumed non-viable. 
Testing as to whether SCP-3660 creates species at random, or in 
accordance to an undiscovered pattern is ongoing is pending 
approval. 


D-46296 following induced 
identity expungement. 
While a subject immediately post-transfiguration may initially display 


shock and/or animalistic behavior attesting to the contrary, the 
human identity is relatively intact. Transfigured subjects are 


consistently capable of confirming their identities through various 
methods such as standard memory tests, simple communication 
through gestures and, when applicable, written testimony. However, 
it is inaccurate to state that SCP-3660 does not fundamentally alter 
the subject. Transfigured subjects adopt a natural proficiency in 
operating their new forms. Examples include: 


Site—45 on 02/21/2018. 
¢ Fin propelled locomotion in water. 
¢ Winged flight. 
« Prehensile tail manipulation. 
¢ Venom injection. 


* Courtship rituals. 
« Internal heat regulation. 


Furthermore, subjects may experience the supplanting of specific, 
albeit now incompatible, aspects of their humanity in order to 
accommodate species-specific traits. These new instincts and 
behaviors are not necessarily compulsive nor overpowering. 
Depending on the individual constitutions of the subjects, human 
identities can be easily maintained with minimal deviation, even 
unconsciously so, while others may have their identities steadily 
eroded away without professional intervention. Currently the change 
in diet and mating urges are reported as being the most difficult to 
resist, according to 94.7% and 59.2% of the cumulative subject pool, 
respectively. 


The transformation is, currently, irreversible. Testing into this matter 
is Ongoing. 


SCP-3660 CoMARP Integration: The Collaborative Materials and 
Research Project has accepted Proposal-048, submitted by Dr. 
Scarcliffe, and this item is now cleared for a COMARP General 
Acquisition and Use Authorization. As such, subjects transfigured by 
SCP-3660 may be acquired or temporarily utilized by other research 
teams. Usage of SCP-3660's subjects, as with other resources with 
an attached CoMARP-G2AU Authorization, requires satisfaction of 
the following requirements. 


SCP-473: Supai 


Item #: SCP-473 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: A 5 kilometer area surrounding 
SCP-473 is off limits to all personnel. Human testing in this range is 
prohibited without O-5 approval. Above all, loss of human life within 
this 5 kilometer area must be prevented. A further 20 kilometer 
distance is to be secured by no less than two Foundation combat 
units at all times. Any unauthorized vessels entering this area are to 
be sunk and their crew eliminated. Vessels approaching the site but 
remaining outside of the 20 kilometer kill zone may be boarded and 
turned away with the use of Class-A amnestics. 


Description: SCP-473 is a wrecked Spanish galleon typical of those 
used in the early 16th century. It is resting on the ocean floor at 

2" "N° ' "W. SCP-473 was brought to the attention of the 
Foundation after the loss of a research vessel operated by 
[REDACTED] University. A Search and Rescue team which 
approached SCP-473 reported audio anomalies "like giggling, and 
pleading for help". They reported voices in English, Spanish and an 
unrecognized language. Agents embedded in [REDACTED] 
immediately moved to cancel the search, declaring the crew and 
vessel lost. 


Note: Though the wreck is designated SCP-473, anomalies present 
may be due to cargo within the wreck. Further investigation of this is 
advised against at this time. 


Proximity Effects: Phenomena encountered by ships approaching 
SCP-473 include disembodied voices (which may have knowledge 
of Foundation personnel and operations) and minor physical 
disturbances such as unidentified vibrations and impacts on the 
ship. Electrical disturbances are common, causing primary and 
emergency lighting to fail. This results in absolute darkness within a 


1. Applications for use/acquisition must be provided by the 
applicant team’s senior research personnel and include either 
long or short term plans for requested material, depending on 
the proposed duration of use. 

2. Applications must be approved by administrative personnel 
responsible for the applicant site before submission. 
Applications that fail this requirement will be automatically 
denied and the appropriate administration will be notified. 

3. The supplying research team must approve the application 
through the relevant CoMARP liason. For SCP-3660, this is

+ Incident: 3660-2AE01 


Incident Report: Following Test 3660-012, Dr. Scarcliffe 
and Dr. Liverich entered the testing area to measure any 
compositional changes in SCP-3660. Experimental 
procedures, current at the time, necessitated only the 
wearing of gloves and a thorough briefing of how the 
item was to be handled. Dr. Liverich held SCP-3660 with 
tongs, and Dr. Scarcliffe gathered data. Three minutes 
after interaction began, a high-voltage circuit breaker 
located several meters away from the testing chamber 
short-circuited, resulting in a power outage on F Wing 
which lasted approximately 10 seconds before back-up 
systems activated. 


Upon a review of testimonies provided by both parties 
and character witnesses, Dr. Liverich was determined to 
have reacted poorly to the sudden loss of light and 
accompanying noise (described as a small "pop" by Dr. 
Scarcliffe, and as a small explosion by Dr. Liverich). 
SCP-3660 was unintentionally embedded into Dr. 
Scarcliffe's right cheek. SCP-3660 activated in 3 minutes 
and 8 seconds. Both parties were treated for shock and 
King Cobra bite, as appropriately. Dr. Liverich has since 
been reprimanded and re-assigned to general research, 
despite Dr. Hanssen's recommendations. Dr. Scarcliffe 
has been allowed to return to her duties provided she 
accept routine psychological therapy, evaluations and 


the necessary revisions to her employment contract. 


At the time, surgical removal of SCP-3660 was not 
understood as an effective countermeasure. This 
conclusion was reached following later tests(see Test 
3660-015).

Interview Log: 3660-ISI04 


INTERVIEWER: Senior 
Researcher Dr. Aldrich Hanssen 


INTERVIEWED: Researcher Dr. 
Stephanie Scarcliffe 


FORWARD: Interview conducted 
by Dr. Hanssen following the 


conclusion of the Research and 
Information Security 
Administration’s investigation and 
Experiment 1177. Dr. Scarcliffe 
has been given a text-to-speech 
synthesizer operating on a touch- 
screen keyboard. Key size has 
been resized appropriately for Dr. 
Scarcliffe’s snout. 


[BEGIN LOG] 


Dr. Hanssen: Have you gotten 
used to the program yet? 


Dr. Scarcliffe: The program is 
fine. Voice is robotic. Accent is 
wrong. 


Dr. Hanssen: It'll do until the 
custom one is finished. Scarcliffe, 
I'll be brief. We’re stopping 
experimentation with SCP-3660. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: No. Why? 


Dr. Hanssen: | hear it has 
something to do with the whale 
that materialized in the middle of 
this facility-don’t flap that hood up 
at me, Scarcliffe. Don’t you dare. 
You want to know what just 
landed in my inbox over lunch? 
Or better yet, do you want to 
know what the containment teams 
found hidden away in the 
storage? Animals. Every. Where. 
So why don't we talk about 
concealing experiments? Why 
don't you give me something to 


say when the big bad suit comes 
down here and asks exactly why 
we're running a zoo down here? 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Tell him he's been 
to some pathetically small zoos. 
It's long term research. All 
recovered? 


Dr. Hanssen: Did we recover 
them all? No, we're getting rid of 
them, all 177...for fuck’s sake, 
Steph! My official record states 
we haven't even reached 80 tests, 
and | was recommending that you 
slow down even then. 177 people 
in less than 2 months! You can 
shout or hiss long term research 
all day long. But | don’t buy it fora 
second. That's a production line. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Long term 
research. Still more to discover. 
Reversal maybe. 


Dr. Hanssen: Yes. Reversal. | 
know. We've done all the testing 
we can on that damn zipper after 
it's used. You might actually get 
new data if you dedicated your 
time to studying the subjects 
already affected rather than by 
creating your little ecosystem. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Redundant. | can 
do that myself by keeping a diary. 
Look, the CoMARP just got new 
materials. Relevant materials. I've 
already ordered what | need to 
add skin-graft variable into next 5 
tests. Authorize those last tests at 


least. 


Dr. Hanssen: No. Enough. Stop 
typing and listen to me. The 
decision to halt experimentation’s 
already been made. If you keep 
trying to justify why this needs to 
keep happening, even after all 
that’s happened, I'll be convinced 
that you've lost it. And I'll happily 
step out of the way of the shit- 
storm hurtling right at you. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: I'm a bloody 
snake, Hanssen. 


Dr. Hanssen: Look. Steph, | don’t 
know what it’s like to be...like 
you. And | am sorry for what 
happened. Understand that, if 
nothing else. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Not your fault. 
Twitchy idiot’s fault. 


Dr. Hanssen: They wanted to 
shut you down earlier, you know? 
We all knew that zipper's roulette 
wheel was eventually going to 
stop on something problematic. | 
expected the end would come as 
an apex predator controlled by a 
mass-murderer. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Personally 
expected psycho elephant. 


(Pause) 


Dr. Hanssen: How long do King 
Cobras live? 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Not very long. 
Could be more. Provided optimal 
conditions. 


Dr. Hanssen: Do you know how 
much time you have left? 


Dr. Scarcliffe: No. Effects of 
SCP-3660 on life-span ongoing. 
Not even necessary if reversal is 
found. Do not stop 
experimentation. Please. 


Dr. Hanssen: Then why would 
you sabotage yourself by-when 
the big bad comes down here, I'll 
talk about mitigation. You have a 
bit of bargaining credit: agreeing 
to 'donate’ animals with human 
intelligence to other teams has 
given you a small mountain of 
goodwill, especially from the folks 
studying [REDACTED]. But even 
then, the whale will have to go 
obviously-a lot of the others too, 
but | might be able to convince 
the director to allow 
experimentation with some of the 
current, low-maintenance 
subjects. No promises. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Thank you. 


Dr. Hanssen: Hold on to that for 
a bit. /f| do get testing to 
continue, I'll arrange for any 
pertinent developments to be 
forwarded to you. 


Dr. Scarcliffe: Why? I'll be 
overseeing.
