limited extent when in the presence of an unprotected wireless 
network. Prior to recovery, SCP-1653-A was located in the courtyard 
of the Memorial Hospital in , Michigan. There, it 
broadcasted two Tweets each day to the Twitter account @ ; the 
first would be a declaration of whether it was currently sunny or 
cloudy, and the second would be a statement of a desire for a 
personal characteristic or belonging. The account gathered 21 
followers before it was terminated by the Foundation; all have been 
tracked and amnesticized. SCP-1653-A was replaced in the 
courtyard by a replica. Shortly after SCP-1653-A was discovered, 
SCP-1653-B were found locked in a disused basement walk-in 
freezer at the Memorial Hospital, from which they were 
attempting to escape. 


SCP-1653-B are a set of three elongated tetrahedrons constructed 
from polished green stainless steel. Each is 50 cm tall and 20 cm to 
a base edge, with a purple and yellow flower design drawn on each 
face. Their construction is seamless and prevents internal imaging, 
but they seem to be partially filled with one or more viscous liquids 
of unknown nature. SCP-1653-B are animate and hostile, typically 
gliding on their bases at speeds of up to 49 kph on surfaces inclined 
up to 20°. While moving they produce quiet bursts of white noise. 
They have not responded well to containment; active breach 
attempts occurred almost daily until the current containment 
procedures were put into place. SCP-1653-B's apparent motive is to 
reach SCP-1653-A and attach themselves to its surface — details 
after that point are not known. 


Addendum: Sample Tweets! from the Twitter account associated 
with SCP-1653-A.

SCP-1655: Sorrow Tick 


Item #: SCP-1655 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-1655 is to be kept in a 5 x 
5 x 5cm plexiglass container. Any handling of SCP-1655 that 
requires opening its container is to be performed by D-class 
personnel only. 


Description: SCP-1655 is a small arachnid of the order /xodida, 
bearing a strong resemblance to the common tick. SCP-1655 does 
not appear to share the common development cycle of non- 
anomalous members of the order /xodida, nor to require any 
physical sustenance. 


SCP-1655 was found latched to the neck of , a patient in the 

asylum for the criminally insane, by Dr. . Dr. ; 
employed by the Foundation, contacted his superiors as a result of a 
series of interviews with 


The specimen is extremely aggressive, and will attempt to latch onto 
and bite any mammal with which it comes into contact . If the 
specimen is able to bite someone, the following phenomena will 
occur: 


1. Any living being the affected subject held any degree of affection 
for will immediately lose all memory of the subject's existence and 
will be unable to acquire any new memories concerning him/her/it. 


2. Said beings will not be able to sense the subject in any manner. 
Any physical contact with the subject will cause mild discomfort and 
disgust, which will increase in intensity the longer contact is held. 


3. If the subject begins to feel affection to any other living being, they 
will also be affected. It appears SCP-1655 is able to extract 


information from its victims and alter its effects in order to maintain 
complete emotional isolation . 


4. The subject will ignore SCP-1655's existence. 


These effects appear to be permanent, and will endure even if the 
parasite is removed. Beings the subject bears no affection to are 
unaffected. Because of this, and the effects of the suffering of its 
victims on SCP-1655 (See Test Log), it is hypothesized the parasite 
keeps a mental link with its victims, and feeds on the negative 
emotions the effects of its bite incurred in them. 


Test Log SCP-1655 
Subject: A female house cat and its kitten. 
Test: SCP-1655 introduced to kitten. 


Result: Mother cat no longer acknowledges the kitten's 
existence. Kitten's attempts to feed are met with 
resistance from mother, until eventual starvation of the 
kitten. A plasma-like substance appears in SCP-1655's 
blood sack. 


Subject: D-236 


Test: SCP-1655 introduced to to D-236. He is asked to 
contact his grandmother, Mrs. __, who raised him. 


Result: Mrs. does not appear to hear D-236's voice. 
When questioned about her grandson by Agent _—_, she 
shows no recollection of him. When a meeting is 
arranged she ignores his existence entirely, and when 
D-236's is asked to touch her, she expresses a feeling of 
uneasiness, "something spooky", in her words. D-236's 
is removed from the meeting due to signs of extreme 
emotional distress. SCP-1655 appears engorged, as if 
filled with blood. 


Addendum#1655-A: 
A diary was found next to the body of , after his suicide. The 
following extract is of particular note: 


All alone. Always alone. She couldn't see me, no matter 
what | did. She couldn't care. | gave up everything for 
her- | left my wife and kids, my job, my entire life just to 
run away with her. | thought we were happy. Then one 
day, | come back home and all of my stuff in out on the 
pavement, and when | go inside she acts like | don't even 
exists. | shout at her, and | shake her, but nothing works. 
She just walks around me like I'm not there. | scream at 
her for hours. Hours! and she just ignores me. Every 
time | touch her she gets that fucking disgusted look on 
her face, like I'm some scum. So | took it off forever. That 
backstabbing, lying cunt. She had it coming. She got 
what she deserved. 

Why didn't she love me anymore? 


Addendum#1655-B: Testis of the specimen's saliva have produced 
results: though tests were unable to identify all of the different 
components, trace evidence of hormones affecting the 
Hippocampus, as well as powerful depressants, were found. While 
physiological examinations proved incapable of confirming how the 
specimen uses the information it retrieves from the Hippocampus to 
affect others, it is now clear it is actively causing mental anguish to 
its subjects, most likely in order to hasten its feeding process. 


Addendum#1655-C: Closer examination of the specimen found 
feminine reproductive organs, implying additional members of the 
species may exist in the wild. Further investigation is recommended.

SCP-1656: Jealous Limbs 


Item #: SCP-1656 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: As its mechanism and method 
of activation is unknown SCP-1656 is presently uncontained. 
Instances of SCP-1656-1 are to be contained in standard 1m x 1m x 
1m holding cells at Sector-28. Once per day, instances of 
SCP-1656-1 are to be provided with intravenous fluids and total 
nutrient admixture. 


Description: SCP-1656 is an idiopathic phenomenon affecting the 
upper limbs of adult human subjects. The progression of SCP-1656 
occurs in several distinct phases: 


Stage One: Subjects affected by SCP-1656 (hereafter referred to as 
parent instances) begin to experience muscle tremors, reduced 
circulation and dulled sensation in the affected limb. During this 
stage parent instances experience significant alterations in their 
memory, universally reporting that the affected limb was amputated 
at a young age. When questioned about the limb’s presence, parent 
instances claim it is a former acquaintance. Parent instances have 
declined to elaborate. 


Stage Two: Stage two is characterized by periods of complete loss 
of voluntary motor control over the affected limb. These periods will 
increase in frequency until the affected limb gains complete 
autonomy and is designated an instance of SCP-1656-1. 
SCP-1656-1 instances are sapient and, during periods of autonomy, 
will constantly attempt written communication with their parent 
instance. Despite all attempts by SCP-1656-1, parent instances will 
ignore these communications. 


Recovered communications invariably focus on feelings of rejection 
and romantic neglect on the part of the parent instance towards 


SCP-1656-1. After several days, communications begin to focus on 
an infatuation of SCP-1656-1 with an unidentified male individual. 
While descriptions of this individual vary, instances of SCP-1656-1 
report its reciprocation after twelve to fourteen days and state their 
intent to end their relationship with their parent instance. This period 
marks the transition into stage three. 


Stage Three: SCP-1656-1 will cleanly separate itself from its parent 
instance at the shoulder. This has no deleterious effects on either 
the parent instance or SCP-1656-1, leaving behind what appears to 
be a fully-healed stump at the site of cleavage. 


SCP-1656-1 is capable of locomotion and, following its separation, 
will attempt to flee to an unobserved area. If visual observation is 
interrupted or lost, SCP-1656-1 will disappear to an unknown 
location (see Addendum SCP-1656-A). GPS monitoring systems 
placed on instances of SCP-1656-1 prior to separation abruptly cut 
off after visual observation of the instance is lost. 


Addendum SCP-1656-A 


On 12/04/20 , all GPS trackers previously used to 
monitor instances of SCP-1656-1 spontaneously 
reactivated. Foundation agents tracked the signal to a 
warehouse in , Ukraine. A search of the warehouse 
revealed deceased instances of SCP-1656-1, many in 
an advanced state of decay, as well as large amounts of 
graffiti consistent with SCP-1656-1 communications (see 
Addendum SCP-1656-B). Further investigation revealed 
signs of recent habitation by a human individual; forensic 
analysis is ongoing.

communications

SCP-1657: MAN EGG 


Item #: SCP-1657 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-1657 are 
to be kept in Frozen Storage at Site 23. Testing of these objects, 
including the hatching of SCP-1657-A instances, requires approval 
from at least three (3) Level-3 personnel. 


All SCP-1657-A instances are to be kept in separate humanoid 
containment chambers for the duration of their lives. A general 
feeding schedule has been created for all SCP-1657-A; however, if it 
appears that any given instance requires a different diet or schedule, 
Dr. Armstrong is to be contacted and consulted. 


Description: SCP-1657 refers to a collection of seventy-four (74) 
eggs, ranging between 5 cm and 30 cm in length. They are normally 
white in coloration, though occasionally pink and red colored eggs 
will also be found. SCP-1657 can be indefinitely kept at 
temperatures between 0°C and 15°C. If these eggs are kept in 
conditions of a certain temperature and humidity, they will hatch and 
yield specimens of SCP-1657-A. See Document-1657-Alpha for 
more specific details on the incubation of these eggs. 


SCP-1657-A appear to be closely related to humans (Homo sapiens 
sapiens), except that they are not sapient, lack hair, nails, and teeth, 
and are often deformed, sprouting extraneous appendages or 
organs during regular growth. Furthermore, once hatched, these 
entities will grow to the size of an adult human and reach maturity in 
approximately thirteen (13) days, with the average total lifespan 
being about seventeen (17) days. 


SCP-1657-A instances are compliant and docile, as well as 
appearing to fear all living organisms. If the entity possesses 
sensory organs, then it will use them to attempt to distance itself as 


far away as possible from all other beings. If these aspects are not 
present, the entity will then only move away from something when 
touched. If left alone in a soothing environment for long period of 

time, SCP-1657-A may produce additional instances of SCP-1657. 


Testing has shown that members of SCP-1657-A possess a 
collective memory. Specifically, this was discovered during primary 
physical endurance testing when SCP-1657-A-07 approached fire 
with curiosity and subsequently died. After this point, all individuals 
that hatched showed great aversion and fear to fire. Testing with 
alternative stimuli has confirmed these results. See Test Log-1657- 
Kappa for the full log. 


SCP-1657 was originally foundin __, Tennessee, within the house 
of , a known high-ranking member of Gol-  ( ), and 
subsequently contained. Six (6) packages holding fifteen (15) 
instances of SCP-1657 each were found at this location and 
subsequently contained. Each of these packages is labeled in the 
same manner with a flyer, as transcribed in Addendum-1657- 
Gamma. Additionally, blood that was later identified as belonging to 
SCP-1657-A instances was found dried onto several surfaces and 
appliances in ’s sink, refrigerator, and frying pans. 


Addendum-1657-Gamma:

SCP-1658: Textual Mold 


SCP-1658 colony present with a copy of Raymond Carver's 
Catherdal. Image scanned prior to destruction of volume. 
Item #: SCP-1658 


Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: All materials contaminated by 
instances of SCP-1658 are to be stored individually in vacuum- 
sealed tear-resistant plastic bags. MTF-Phi-12 ("Reading 
Rainbows") is responsible for the destruction of materials found to 
have been infested by SCP-1658 not currently in containment. Any 
graffiti that shows properties similar to SCP-1658 are to be removed 
using fungicidal compound BMK. All personnel who interact with 
SCP-1658 are to wear at least Class-3 Biohazard protection, 
including face masks and suits. 


Description: SCP-1658 is a fungal organism related to 
Stachybotrys chartarum, or black mold. When visible, SCP-1658 
superficially resembles dried ink. Like most molds, SCP-1658 
prefers damp environments, but can live in a state of suspended 
animation in arid environments as well, surviving for up to 70 years 
without exposure to water.
