Subject C: Wait. Where the f... where 
the fuck... 

Subject B: It’s... it should just be down 
there. 

Subject D: Is... it on the other side of 
the mountain? 

Subject C: [Indistinct.] that far, 
Rebecca. What the fuck is going on? 
Subject B: [Urgently.] Guys it’s getting 
dark. We can’t be here. 

<Subjects grow silent.> 

Subject D: | don’t want to carry him 
down in the dark. 


Subject C: We’re making a camp here. 

Cover him up with his bedroll, we'll... 

Sam, do you have reception? 

Subject B: [Brief pause.] No. 

¢ Subject D: | didn’t even bring my- 

* Subject C: | know, | didn’t ask you for a 

reason. We'll go down in the morning. 

Take turns watching him. 

<Indistinct discussion for 4:51 as mic is 

pointed towards wind. Somber tones.> 

Subject C: We still have an hourish of 

daylight, | think. Lots of time. 

¢ Subject D: I'll go find some firewood, 
there’s a tree up there, see if | can knock 
it loose. 

¢ Subject B: I'll... cover him up. 

Subject C: Yeah... do that. I'll like... 

establish a perimeter or something. 

¢ <Indistinct discussion.> 

<Subject D find the camera was 

recording, switches it off.>

RECORDING #: Timespan No. 3 

Length: 02:03:24 

SUMMARY: Timespan No. 3 contains a 
number of unrelated short recordings, and little 
useful audio. It appears that Subjects B and D 
took turns taking video, including both candid 
moments amongst the group as well as 
several examples of unusual fauna. 


Recordings appear to take place over the 


course of more than one day, judging by the 
sun’s position in the sky. 


<Begin Summary> 


01:32:11 - Recording begins. Daybreak. 
Camera is held in the hand of Subject D, 
panning over horizon. Geography of 
area is distinctly different from previous, 
with similar but distinct mountainous 
woodlands in the distance. A low fog is 
settled in some valley areas. Subjects B 
and C are visible several feet from 
Subject B; Subject A’s body is wrapped 
in a stained sleeping bag with rope. 
Panning shot reveals several divergent 
details, including the number of 
unidentified songbirds in the distance, 
shape of distant cloud cover, and the 
exact location of several boulders and 
rocky outcroppings. 

Recording ends when Subject C makes 
an indistinct remark to Subject D. 
01:35:23 - Recording begins. Early 
morning. Subject B holds the camera, 
focusing it on Subject C, who is laid 
prone on the ground aiming her rifle. 
Camera focuses past and below Subject 
C, on what appears to be a pheasant. 
Gender and maturity of pheasant 
diverges between viewings. Subject C 
waits patiently before firing a shot, 
evidently attempting to hunt the bird, and 
the bird takes flight at a 45 degree angle 
away from the group. Bird appears to 
twist in the air and extend before 
vanishing in a shower of viscera and 
dozens of what appear to be skinless 
chicks, which appear to squeal 
extremely loudly in agony as they land. 


Subject B swears indistinctly, Subject D 
can be heard vomiting. Squealing 
continues for several seconds as 
Subject B stumbles away. Recording 
ends. 

01:39:49 - Recording begins. Mid- 
afternoon. Camera is out of focus, 
looking across a rocky plateau at 
Subjects B and C. Indistinct discussion 
between Subjects B and C can be 
heard, apparently discussing whether or 
not to keep carrying Subject A’s body. 
Subject B is against abandoning the 
body, where Subject C is trying to be 
practical. Subject C’s demeanor and 
tone suggest severe emotional 
withdrawal. Conversation continues for 
an extended period of time, before 
Subject B is convinced that it is better for 
the group. Recording ends. 

01:58:01 - Recording begins. Late 
afternoon. Subjects are approximately 4 
metres from a cliff, which is not 
consistent with known geography. Audio 
is indistinct, Subject C is evidently 
distraught. Subject B can be heard 
attempting to console Subject C, before 
yielding to emotional distress. Sounds of 
weeping can be heard as Subject D sits 
and breathes raggedly while holding the 
camera; camera pans quickly into an 
unknown direction as Subject D appears 
to grab her head. Through hair an 
unusual cloud formation can be seen 
which remains consistent between 
viewings, and the mountain appears to 
loom exactly the same height as it did in 
earlier shots, despite apparent constant 
descent. Recording ends. 


* 02:08:28 - Recording begins. Mid- 


morning. Recording apparently begun 
accidentally, mid-crisis, and audio is 
indistinct. Subject B and D can be heard 
panicking as Subject C screams at 
them, apparently demanding they keep 
moving. Subject D’s voice indicates that 
she is crying. Recording cuts mid- 
sentence. 

02:10:05 - Recording begins. Evening. 
Subject D is watching Subject C, who is 
watching the horizon. Camera pans, 
showing that the cliff is in the far 
distance down and to group’s left, 
between .5 and 1 kilometre away. 
Fissure is visible across part of the 
horizon, and woodlands are full of heavy 
fog. Sunset is filtering through clouds to 
group’s right. Subject B pans camera 
upwards, and around their current camp, 
which is littered with round white stones 
and fossilized wood. 


At 02:26:05, Subject B pans up to 
himself, showing that his face is filthy 
and shows signs of heavy distress. 
Utters the words “I’m so sorry,” to the 
camera, before the recording ends. 
02:26:09 - Recording begins. Early 
morning. Indistinct sounds of panic in 
the group, as camera falls to the ground, 
sideways. Large irregular white and grey 
spheres appear to be growing around 
group. Subject D picks up camera 
before a sphere can engulf it. 


Group backs away from area, a 
darkened spot against the rocky outcrop 
used as shelter, protected from the 
morning sun. Subject C screams 
indistinctly in a rage, kicks a sphere, 


which inverts, revealing thick pink and 
red gills. White phyla spread across the 
ground as fungus inverts - force of 
inversion sprays clear material in all 
directions, covering other spheres, 
which also violently invert. Subject C 
screams in terror as she is coated with 
material, before collapsing and seizing, 
skin beginning to weep as black 
whistling growths burst from soft tissue. 
Subjects B and D flee. 

* 02:31:44 - Recording begins. Subject D 
is running, camera flailing as if hung 
from some garment. Subject D trips and 
falls, tumbling several dozen feet. 
Comes to a rest on sharp rocks, blood 
covering ground. Exposed bone is 
visible through leg as a fox appears to 
climb down rocky face, dragging its back 
legs. Fox is disheveled. Animal opens its 
mouth, after which a vulture’s head and 
neck extends from its throat. Subject D 
can be heard screaming wetly for 
several seconds before sounds 
suddenly cease. Creature continues to 
feed, and recording continues until 
batteries run out. 


<End Recording, 06:13:22> 


Closing Statement: The fate of Subject B is 
as of yet unknown. 


Further context regarding SCP-3517 is pending. 


SCP-3519: These Quiet Days 


Item #: SCP-3519 
Object Class: Keter (Neutralized) 


Special Containment Procedures: As there are no remaining 
persons susceptible to SCP-3519, no further containment is 
required; the infection is considered neutralized. A significant 
percentage of global media is suspected to carry infection and 
containment is beyond the capacity of the current Foundation. 
However a majority, if not the entirety, of infected storage media is 
expected to degrade before further transmission can occur. 


+ Archived Special Containment Procedures 01/03/19 (Initial) 


Mobile Task Force Psi-10 ("Maslow's Motivators") is 
tasked with identifying populations infected with 
SCP-3519. Identified populations will be secured by 
Mobile Task Force Eta-10 ("See No Evil") 
and Mobile Task Force Eta-11 ("Savage 
Beasts"). All three task forces are tasked with securing 
and quarantining SCP-3519 carrier media. 


+ Archived Special Containment Procedures 01/17/19 


Mobile Task Force Psi-10 ("Maslow's Motivators") is 
tasked with mapping the spread of SCP-3519 infection. 
Mobile Task Force Upsilon-4 ("Sugar Pill") 
is to develop countermemetic treatments with the utmost 
urgency. Once these countermeasures are developed 
they are to be deployed immediately, with the following 
distribution priority: 


1. MTF u-4 personnel 
2. Critical Memetics Department personnel 
3. The O5 Council 


4. The Global Occult Coalition 

5. World Health Organization 

6. Remaining critical Foundation personnel 
7. General population

countermeme. Grief counseling and suicide prevention is 
to be made available to all surviving Foundation 
personnel. 


+ Archived Special Containment Procedures 02/25/2019 


Grief counseling and suicide prevention is to be made 
available to all surviving Foundation personnel. Suicide 
capsules are to be made available on request. 
Neutralization orders are to be carried out for all 
surviving Keter class anomalies wherever possible. 
Foundation facilities are to independently follow 
abandon-in-place procedures when staffing reaches 30% 
or lower, or at the discretion of the facility director. 


Description: SCP-3519 is a memetic contagion carried by multiple 
vectors in print, visual, and auditory media. It consists of the strong 
conviction that the world will end on March 5th, 2019 and that 
suicide prior to the event is desirable. 


crew rooms. T2L has been dead since we were in the 
hold. He.. he went to investigate the people in the hold, 
and as soon as he approached them, that hatch in the 
back, it flew open, made a huge noise. We all turned to 
look at it, then back to T2L and ... he was gone, him and 
those people in the corner, just gone, like the others. We 
searched the ship, up and down, up and down but never 
found him... 


Did you return to the surface for supplies Baker? That 
ship should only be five floors at mos— 


We... we never thought to do that. This ship is at least 
thirty floors HQ, at least! But we found a crew quarters 
with food and we've been... 


Baker our first team reported that ship had been ashore 
for at least thirty years, maybe more. What exact food 
did you find there that was edible? 


Baker? 
... Thirty, years? 


Baker, listen closely. | want you, and whoever is left, to 
get topside immediately. We are dispatching a rescue 
team to— 


(gunshot) 
(gunshot) 


BAKER?! 
(gunshot) 


... BAKER?! Come in?! What the fuck is going on over 
there?! 


A third team of heavily armed recon units was dispatched to the 
SCP-455 site and investigated the cargo hold from above deck 


SCP-3519 is transmitted by both media and word of mouth reports 
of a belief in an impending eschaton. Infection is characterized by 
credulous adoption of the meme despite the lack of evidence. The 
specific details of the predicted event show wide variation, including 
belief in: the advent of a messianic religious figure, catastrophic 
astronomical event, environmental collapse, technological singularity 
or reality failure event. 


Notably, none of these events are associated with any predicted K- 
class scenarios on this date and the Foundation's assessment of K- 
class probability on that day is at the nominal rate of .015% after 
accounting for SCP-3519. 


Following initial infection, hosts show a tendency towards ecstatic 
revelation, millenarianism, and suicidal ideation. Self-euthanasia is 
rationalized in the context of the variation of SCP-3519 belief the 
host has been infected with, as either a prerequisite for 
transcendence or as preferable to survival through the event. 


Suicide follows initial infection within weeks in a significant number 
of cases; due to the difficulty of accurate data collection at this time 
exact statistics are unavailable. However no known infected person 
has survived longer than 40 days after wholly adopting SCP-3519 
beliefs. 


Addendum 3519-A, Samples of SCP-3519 Infected Media: 
Excerpt From CNN, Anderson Cooper 360°, 12/29/18: 
Anderson Cooper: So how credible is this prediction? 


Kellyanne Conway: The White House thinks this is 
highly credible. We have multiple sources, reliable 
sources, that say that the world might end on March fifth. 


Neil deGrasse Tyson: This is pretty silly, | mean it's 
tragic that those people killed themselves, but there's 
nothing. Nothing in the skies, nothing on the Earth other 
than our own threats to our survival from climate change 
or nuclear war. March fifth is going to be a day like 
basically any other. This is just like that so-called Mayan 


apocalypse in 2012, or even the mass suicide of the 
Heaven's Gate people in the 90s. 


Archbishop Carrera: We have recently uncovered 
evidence that a secret society of Aztec priests continued 
the work of Mayan prophecy into the modern world and 
that these had recalculated the apocalypse to be the fifth 
day of March of next year. We feel this may be in line 
with the prophesy of St. John. 


Conway: Yes, the Church is one of our sources, as is 
the envoy of the Government of Tenochtitlan in Exile, 
which has been in communication with the President as 
you've seen from this morning's tweet. 


Screen shows the President's tweet from that morning 
"Aztec envoy told me world ending on 3/5. Terrifying!" 


Tyson: There's no such thing as the "Government of 
Tenochtitlan in Exile", it's an urban legend. 


Carrera: Dr. Tyson, surely you must have an open mind 
about these things. 


Cooper: That's all the time we have, but I'm not afraid to 
admit that I'm scared. 


Invitation 02/12/19 


Last Dance on Earth

Subject: | think | understand 


Remember when | told you about Nick Bostrom's 
hypothesis that reality is a simulation? Let's say that we 
accept his argument that the probability of life being a 
simulation is one. Looking at what's happening in the 
world right now, the probability of surviving past the 5th 
is definitely not one, it's rapidly declining to zero. Even if 
you do live, what kind of life are you going to be able to 
have? 


What's the probability of everybody in the world deciding 
that the world is ending on the exact same day and that 
you have to, in defiance of the survival instinct and 
everything, kill yourself before that day? It seems 
unlikely, but it is happening. 


What would a simulation look like from the inside, right 
before they switched it off? 


Maybe they need us offline when we migrate to a new 
program. 


| love you so much, Rinna. We'll see each other soon.
