SCP-2591: Apologies, it is difficult to explain. We held 
our vicious stance, prepared to slit each others’ throats, 
and yet made no move. We were entranced, and sung 
nary a word. It was not our intent to engage in such 
queer stasis; in truth, | know not why it happened. It had 
continued for years, taking the both of us far beyond our 
natural lifespans. [redacted for brevity]

reassigned to SCP-_.) 


Recovery Log: SCP-2591 was discovered through the usage of 
SCP-2591-Omega, which is an experimental prototype of a 
dimensional gateway found in the ruins of Prometheus Labs. Project 
Bifrost was established by the Foundation to resume full functionality 
of SCP-2591-Omega. 


After [REDACTED] failed attempts, a connection was established to 
a relatively stable realm, designated Reality-GBICR259101. MTF 
Zeta-9 ("Mole Rats") was dispatched to explore the area and 
report any anomalous findings.

Dr. Henderson: Video reception didn't make it through 
the gate, but | can hear you. What are you looking at? 


Agent : The area resembles a European seaside 
village at sunset. | wanna say Spain. Seems harmless 
enough. 


Dr. Henderson: Keep your eye out regardless. 


Agent : Yeah, | figured you wouldn't send Mole 
Rats to do your vacations for you. 


Dr. Henderson: Cut the jokes. Any lifeforms? 


Agent : Town's barren for the most part. We'll keep 
you posted. 


[redacted for relevance] 


Agent : There's three human cadavers in this 
garden. One's on the ground, female, and completely 
decomposed, but there are two males standing up 
pointing swords at each other. Males show signs of 
mummification. 


Dr. Henderson: | want tissue samples from all three. 
Agent : Understood. Collecting from the first male. 
[sounds of SCP-2591 screaming] 


Agent : First male is resisting tissue collection. It's 
extremely agitated. 


Dr. Henderson: It's animate? 


Agent : Confirmed. Should we sedate him and take 
him in? 

Dr. Henderson: Sounds good.

Addendum: Three months after the containment of SCP-2591, Dr. 
Naismith of Project Bifrost discovered similarities between the story 
of SCP-2591's life and an obscure, unfinished libretto for a 19th- 
century Italian three-act opera titled // Canario Rosso? by the 
Florentine playwright Giacomo Benigni. 


In a series of correspondence with composer Giusseppe Verdi, the 
offer to compose the music for the libretto was repeatedly rejected 
by Verdi, who considered Benigni's pre-existing body of work to be 
sub-par. As a result, Benigni retired from writing before he finished 
Il Canario Rosso. 


The situation outlined by SCP-2591 mirrors the Act Two finale, 
where Duke Riccardo and Count Pietro prepare to duel. As Act 
Three was never written, the outcome of this duel remains unknown. 


Footnotes 

1. Despite this, SCP-2591 considers its native tongue to be 
"Apostasian,"” which issungltalian, English, or French. Due to the 
desiccated nature of SCP-2591's throat, this has been discouraged 
by Foundation staff. 

2. ("The Red Canary") 

3."... Itis an utter impossibility that | would collaborate with a writer 
with a portfolio that is not only amateurish, but pompous, financially 
opportunistic, and with melodrama that makes an unintentional farce 
of itself - to the point of provoking laughter in the crucifixion scene of 
a Passion play, as evidenced in the one successful operetta you've 
put on in Venice. ..."

SCP-2592: Milk and Bananas 


Item #: SCP-2592 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2592 is housed in a 
standard humanoid containment cell at Humanoid Containment 
Site-06-3. In lieu of a standard humaniform entity diet, SCP-2592 is 
to be fed one bowl containing two sliced Class | (EU) bananas in 
350 mL of whole milk daily. 


Only personnel testing at an extrasensory resistance index of 65 or 
higher are allowed within SCP-2592's containment area, and only 
with prior permission from at least one Level 3 Senior Researcher. 
Personnel experiencing unusual headaches, hallucinations, or 
nosebleeds are to exit the containment area immediately and 
undergo mandatory mind-affecting / memetic hazard quarantine. 


Description: SCP-2592 is a thin humanoid entity 157 cm in height 
and 42kg in mass with rudimentary telepathic capabilities, recovered 
on / /1923 from a beach home near [REDACTED], France. 
SCP-2592 is intelligent and can understand simple phrases and 
words in French, but does not appear to be capable of speech. Due 
to its lack of eyes, SCP-2592 navigates its surroundings primarily 
using touch, but can telepathically detect the presence of human 
subjects within a range of approximately five meters. SCP-2592 has 
not shown any indication that it is capable of telepathic 
communication or thought-reading, but has sometimes responded to 
strong emotional states such as fear or distress. If allowed to, 
SCP-2592 will attempt to groom non-threatening human subjects by 
brushing and/or braiding their hair, using basic tools such as combs 
and brushes if available. When left alone, SCP-2592 will either pace 
listlessly or lie in a fetal position. 


Subjects within ten meters of SCP-2592 have consistently reported 
receiving hallucinations consisting of mental imagery consistent with 


are available to the side. 


Provided that a living organism is lying in the coffin, the first button 
may be pressed (pressing any buttons under other circumstances 
yields no effect, and the button remains ‘off! no matter how many 
times pressed) and the tubes extending over the coffin dispense a 
blue liquid into the coffin. This unidentified liquid acts as a sedative 
upon skin contact, and the occupant of the coffin quickly falls 
unconscious. The liquid can apparently be inhaled and swallowed 
without any harm - D-class personnel have reported the taste to be 
similar to "Kool-Aid". Samples have yielded little results in 
identification. Once the coffin is filled to the brim, the liquid quickly 
congeals into a thick syrup, and then to a solid gel. Over this period, 
the occupant's detectable bodily functions (Such as breathing and 
heartbeat) cease. This may be observed on the display screen. 


Once the liquid fully solidifies, the display screen shuts off and the 
conveyor belt starts to move. All attempts to stop the conveyor belt 
and remove either the coffin or the occupant cause the entire 
process to shut down, after which the blue liquid evaporates within a 
few minutes and the subject regains consciousness unharmed. The 
conveyor belt carries the coffin and occupant through a small door 
that quickly locks closed, and the entire machine becomes a 
cacophony of mechanical clanking, whirring, and grinding. The 
display screen will only display a rectangle that slowly fills, like a 
loading bar, as SCP-291 does its work. Depending upon the size of 
the organism, SCP-291 finishes its as-of-yet-unknown process in 
approximately twenty to thirty minutes, at which point the product 
can be retrieved at the opposite end of SCP-291. 


The back door of SCP-291 leads to a similar chamber, also 
containing a conveyor belt similar to the one that holds the coffin in 
the entryway. There is also a series of two dozen 'cubbyholes' or 
‘lockers’, identical to those found in the entry room. These 
cubbyholes may be pulled out to retrieve their contents: parts of the 
organism, disassembled and preserved in blocks of an unidentified, 
clear solid. These blocks are quite strong, but they can be melted by 
extremely high temperatures, or shattered by sharp blows from a 
pick. However, breaking the blocks ruins the preservation method of 
SCP-291, and results in the preserved object being unusable. The 


that of the beach near the home in which it was recovered as well as 
the sound of gently crashing waves, which have been consistently 
described as "serene", "peaceful", or "relaxing". When startled or 
frightened, SCP-2592 is also capable of generating intense 
telepathic emanations that cause panic or severe pain in nearby 
human subjects and can lead to significant neurological trauma after 
prolonged exposure. 


Addendum 2592-1: Initial Recovery Log 


SCP-2592 was discovered in a residential home belonging to 
[REDACTED], a blind 58-year old widow living alone. A local 
milkman had become concerned following several consecutive days 
in which she had failed to receive delivery and notified local 
authorities. Upon forcing entry into the home, SCP-2592 was 
discovered in a distressed state in an apparent attempt to protect 
the body of [REDACTED], who was later determined through 
autopsy to have been dead for several days as the result of a stroke. 
Six (6) police officers were injured by SCP-2592's telepathic distress 
response during the ensuing chaos. 


The Foundation was notified by regional authorities and dispatched 
a containment team to the home. Still in a distressed state from its 
prior contact with local authorities, SCP-2592 incapacitated several 
members of the containment team before Containment Specialist de 
Villiers, having taken stock of the composition of refuse within the 
home, managed to calm SCP-2592 by offering it several bananas 
and a bottle of milk. SCP-2592 immediately ceased its distress 
response and became docile, after which Foundation personnel 
managed to secure it for transport to the nearest containment 
facility. A thorough search of the premises turned up a single 
photograph but no additional evidence relating to SCP-2592 or its 
origin. 


Containment Specialist de Villiers was awarded the Foundation Star 
for his bravery and quick thinking that led to the safe recovery of an 
anomalous humanoid entity and for saving the lives of several 
members of his containment team.

SCP-2593: Donut Jimmy 


Item #: SCP-2593 

Object Class: Safe Euclid 

Special Containment Procedures: 
Original Containment Procedures 


SCP-2593 is to be contained in a standard humanoid 
containment chamber, furnished to comfort levels for a 
non-dangerous humanoid entity. It is to be observed 
remotely for anomalous behavior. 


SCP-2593 is not to be allowed to leave the site after 
delivering its baked goods. 


Deliveries made by SCP-2593 are to be scanned for 
anomalous composition, once weekly. All baked goods 
are to be disposed of. 


Revised Containment procedures 


Due to the nature of SCP-2593, containment shall 
consist of accepting SCP-2593's daily delivery at 0700 
hours each morning, followed by psychological 
counselling at Administrative Site-217. Staff are 
encouraged to interact with SCP-2593, and are to report 
any unusual activity involving SCP-2593 immediately. 


SCP-2593 is not to be allowed to leave the site after 
delivering its baked goods. 


Deliveries made by SCP-2593 are to be scanned for 
anomalous composition, once weekly. All baked goods 


are to be disposed of. 


Containment Procedures Rev. 3 

As SCP-2593 has become hostile to the Foundation, and 
Foundation personnel, SCP-2593 is to be terminated on sight by 
security staff. Failure to do so before SCP-2593 will result in 
SCP-2593 remaining uncontained until the next manifestation event, 
as SCP-2593 has, invariably since the time of revision, attempted to 
flee Foundation custody. 


In 87% of all successful terminations, SCP-2593 has rematerialized 
adjacent to Site-217's security perimeter. All other foundation sites 
are to be placed on high alert. 


All delivered baked goods are to be incinerated at first opportunity. 
At no time are SCP-2593's baked goods to be ingested. 


Description: SCP-2593 is an anomalous humanoid entity which 
appears at a fixed location and time each day, making a delivery of 
donuts and bagels to Administrative Site-217. SCP-2593 disappears 
at a fixed point in time later the same day. 


SCP-2593 is an anomalous manifestation of James , former 
owner of a local bakery, Donut Jimmy's Bakery. Donut Jimmy's 
Bakery was contracted to deliver baked goods daily, for distribution 
to break rooms throughout the Site. 


Foundation records indicate that James attended the California 
Institute of Technology and received a PhD in chemistry in 


James was considered for approach by the Foundation for 
employment, before being screened out due to lack of aptitude in his 
field. Further records show that multiple applications to various 
employers were denied due to lack of applicability of his research 
work, and a general lack of aptitude. 


James opened Donut Jimmy's Bakery with a classmate from his 
secondary school (George Callaghan) in __, four years after 
obtaining his PhD. 


SCP-2593 was determined to be anomalous on September 1,__, 
when Administrative Site-217 accounts payable found a discrepancy 
in the food budgets for refreshments, leading to an investigation by 
Agents Donnelly and McGill. Donut Jimmy's Bakery was observed to 
have been closed for several days. Local business owners claimed 
that the bakery had not opened since September 1, 


Remote observation of SCP-2593 after it made its daily delivery to 
Administrative Site-217 showed that SCP-2593 will disappear from 
view at a distance of .72 KM from the entrance to Administrative 
Site-217 and will reappear at precisely 0700 hours each day. 


Analysis of SCP-2593's delivery confirmed that all food was non- 
anomalous. Chemical Analysis confirmed them safe for human 
consumption, however, as they're produced through anomalous 
means, they are to be disposed of. 


SCP-2593 was contained on September 3, followed by an interview 
about its deliveries. SCP-2593 claimed to have no knowledge of any 
of the events or effects surrounding SCP-2593 and was placed ina 
standard humanoid containment chamber. SCP-2593 was extremely 
distressed and agitated, when informed of the anomalous context 
surrounding it. 


On September 4, , SCP-2593 disappeared from its containment 
cell, and appeared .72 km outside of Administrative Site-217, with 
the usual quantity of food for delivery each morning. Containment 
procedures were amended to include an expansion of Site-217's 
perimeter. 


Expansion of Administrative Site-217's perimeter 


In light of SCP-2593's manifestation each morning 
outside of the facility, Administrative Site-217's perimeter 
was expanded to include the area of manifestation. Thus 
far, SCP-2593 has not changed its manifestation site, 
and continues to make daily deliveries. 


Ongoing interviews with SCP-2593 have led to increased 
agitation, and distress, as each time SCP-2593 is 
informed of its nature, SCP-2593 claims to remember 


each other encounter with Foundation staff since 
containment. 


As such, at this time, it is recommended that SCP-2593 
is not informed of its nature, and remote observation 
continue, barring any further incident. 


First incidence of non-expected baked goods 


On March1, ,SCP-2593's delivery occurred at the 
expected time, however, the contents of the delivery 
contained irregularities. 


All donuts commonly referred to as "jelly filled" were 
instead filled with peanut butter, consistent with Donut 
Jimmy's Bakery peanut butter used in other baked 
goods. All donuts commonly referred to as "Boston 
Creme" were filled instead with mayonnaise, again 
consistent with other Donut Jimmy's Bakery baked 
goods. 


SCP-2593 was asked about these discrepancies, and 
was reluctant to answer, asking if the Foundation was 
requesting a termination of the contract with Donut 

Jimmy's Bakery. Foundation agents denied this was the 
case, and SCP-2593 grew more agitated. SCP-2593 
disappeared from view in containment at 0700 hours, as 
per usual.
