completion of the bottle, Subject was asked to describe his 
condition. Subject sat quiet in a ponderous state for 8 seconds 
before violently vomiting a frothy fluid onto the testing area. Clean 
up was able to collect 31.530z of the fluid, as .470z had absorbed in 
the subjects clothes (Confiscated). 


Money entered: One 500-yen coin with a holed drilled into the edge 
and tied to one (1) meter length of monofilament fishing line (nylon, 
polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polyethylene, Dacron and Dyneema 
(UHMWPE)). After the coin was inserted, string was pulled and coin 
successfully removed from the coin slot. 

SCP-261 Powered or Unpowered: Powered 

Item description: "Nong Shim Udon Premium Noodle Soup" dried 
noodles in a plastic bowl. Edible. No utensils included. Package 
seems ordinary. Text is written in both English and Japanese. While 
boiling water is poured onto the noodles, as per the directions, 
subject comments that he enjoys this brand of noodles. When 
questioned on his condition after 5 bites, Subjects states "Probably 
not the best I've has ever had but for a packaged udon, it’s pretty 
damn good." When finished, the subject immediately vomited 
partially digested noodles and broth onto the testing area. Again, 
tests revealed nothing that should cause such a reaction. 


Money entered: 42 Yen 

SCP-261 Powered or Unpowered: Unpowered 

Item description: Dr. pressed all the buttons at the same 
time. SCP-261 proceeded to make loud noises and shake violently 
for 5 seconds before dispensing a piece of paper 9x6 cm. On one 
side it had the words "Meal Voucher" while on the reverse side it 
says "We Apologize For The Inconvenience." 


Money entered: 777 Yen 

SCP-261 Powered or Unpowered: Powered 

Item description: SCP-261 made noises like a slot machine before 
dispensing exactly 777 chocolate coins. 


Money entered: 13 Yen 
SCP-261 Powered or Unpowered: Powered 
Item description: A small box of cereal labeled "UnLucky Charms" 


content of the footage jumps, and a clip from a seemingly random 
date and time will play. The subjects of the footage do not appear to 
be related to the originally depicted family. The same two clips have 
yet to be repeated, and further investigation suggests that the clips 
are meant to make up a narrative. 


Recorded dates in the footage range from the year 104 to CE. 
Clips have never been observed to exceed thirty minutes in time, 
and can be as brief as twelve seconds. Footage always depicts 
humans and seems to be filmed with the same equipment. The 
cameraman, to be referred to as SCP-2335-1, is never addressed}, 
and the subjects of the footage seem to be unaware of its presence. 


+ Observed Clips 


Date and time depicted: 10/3/1949 15:05:12-15:07:01 
Events observed: A tall Caucasian male, seemingly in 
his mid-twenties, leaning on a fence post, surrounded by 
farmland. He is wearing a white undershirt, black work 
trousers, and a wide-rimmed cap. The subject of the 
footage seems to be watching something out of frame, 
and begins to smile at 15:06:22 and remains visibly 
amused until the end of the clip. 


Date and time depicted: 3/8/1315 7:12:21-7:15:44 
Events observed: A dark-skinned, presumably 
Mesoamerican youth wearing animal furs and a colorful 
arm band climbing a tree, alone, in what appears to be 
an equatorial rain forest. At 7:14:34 the boy falls from an 
approximate height of five meters and screams in pain 
before apparently blacking out. Footage rolls of the 
unconscious boy for another 44 seconds. 


Date and time depicted: 4/29/2028 16:14:10-16:15:26 
Events observed: Three British youths, walking on the 
side of a busy motorway, discussing a particularly 
disliked teacher. They appear to be in the early teens, 
aged 12-14. Each wears black pants and a red shirt of 
flexible, nylon-like fabric, and a belt featuring a green 
ram insignia on the buckle. Several unique slang words 
can be heard during the conversation, including referring 


to a female as "mapped," and using the phrase "right 
flat," several times to express disdain for an assignment. 


Date and time depicted: 12/25/1990 6:35:45-6:36:31 
Events observed: An African-American girl, presumably 
aged 5-8 years, opens a large, extravagantly decorated 
box. After discovering its contents, a tabby American 
Shorthair kitten, the girl expresses extreme happiness 
and proceeds to hop onto a nearby couch and scream 
"thank you, daddy" repeatedly into a throw pillow. 


Date and time depicted: 12/25/1987 5:45:55-5:48:52 
Events observed: A blonde Caucasian boy, of similar 
age to the girl in the previous entry, sitting upright in bed. 
The boy sniffles as sounds of two adults (presumably his 
parents) fighting can be heard in the background. He 
yelps at the sudden noise of a door slamming, reaches 
under his pillow, retrieves a red-and-green envelope, and 
tears it up violently while the sniffling transitions into 
suppressed sobs. 


| was under the impression that these clips played in a 
random order. The fact that these two clips appeared 
consecutively is either an astronomical coincidence or 
proves that this is not the case. - Dr. 


Date and time depicted: [REDACTED] 
Events observed: Footage of what appears to be the 
interior of Facility-  , located in , just minutes before 
SCP- andSCP-_ orchestrate a major containment 
breach. Researchers and other personnel are 
documented as they learn of the breach and attempt to 
prevent or flee it. Notable individuals appearing on the 
film include Dr. and Dr. , both of whom were 
reported dead after the breach originally occurred. 
Despite their efforts, which seem to be the focus of the 
footage, SCP- __ finds and Dr. with its 
resulting in his and 
eventual death by blood loss. SCP- can be seen to 
Dr. fourteen times before he eventually 
which lasts for one minute and 


fourteen seconds. 


Date and time depicted: 7/27/2099 9:05:31 -9:08:31 
Events observed: A crowded arena filled predominantly 
with teenagers and young adults. Roughly half of the 
visible individuals are wearing tight blue one-pieces with 
padded shoulders, the other half wearing red outfits of 
the same nature. Each individual seems to be holding a 
glowing yellow baton estimated to be about 14 inches 
long. It is theorized that the gathering could be part of a 
mass sport, as the participants seem to be trying to hit 
others who are wearing the opposite color with the 
batons. When a baton connects with a vital area, the 
person hit seems to go limp for an indiscernible period of 
time. The ultimate goal of the game is unclear given the 
time of the clip and frame of view, but it seems that 
members of each team are trying to cross into an 
"enemy territory" without being incapacitated. 


Date and time depicted: [REDACTED] 

Events observed: A_ -second static shot of an 
apartment complex located in Uptown . While 
filmed from too far away to discern any details 
concerning specific address, photo analysis software has 
proven that the building is without a doubt the 
Apartments, which happens to be Dr. 's current 
place of residence. 


While tonally unlike any previously-seen footage, we 
have no reason to believe this to be anything other than 
a coincidence. At least, | seriously hope this isn't 
anything other than a coincidence.- Dr. 


Date and time depicted: 6/16/1219 14:24:42-14:25:50 
Events observed: An African man wearing a leather 
skirt surrounded by a crowd of similarly-dressed 
onlookers. He performs a series of acrobatic maneuvers, 
ending with a back flip over a campfire, and is met by 
applause from the crowd. A child breaks from the group 
and hands the man a flower. 


Date and time depicted: 9/08/ 38:13:32-38:14:22 
Events observed: A group of humans, arms intertwined, 
running on completely flat, red terrain. Analysis of the 
strides of these unidentified humans indicates that they 
measure between 6'11" and 7'5" tall. The humans seem 
to be completely hairless, and have a reddish tone to 
their skin unlike that of any known race. They wear skin- 
tight black pants and colorful bracer-like arm coverings. 
Each bracer's pattern and color seems to be unique to 
the individual and crafted of thin metal. There are no 
distinguishable landscape patterns shown in the frame of 
the video. 


Date and time depicted: [REDACTED] 

Events observed: Dr. , head of research on 
SCP-2335, sleeping in his bed with his wife. The room's 
lights are on, but the subjects of the footage remain 
asleep. The camera slowly zooms in on Dr. 's face, 
and remains there for thirteen seconds before the lights 
flip off and the clip ends. 


Testing at this time will be suspended until we can 
understand this thing's motives. | know it isn't proven to 
be malevolent, but | really don't like that it knows where | 
live.- Dr. 


Dr. has backed out of the investigation of 
SCP-2335, and research will now be headed by me.- 
Dr. 


Date and time depicted: 12/12/1212 12:12:12-12:12:24 
Events observed: The clip is roughly twelve seconds 
long, and consists of a man dressed in velvet garments 
reminiscent of an early Italian Barone reaching into a 
large steaming receptacle and retrieving a handful of 
metallic shavings. The shavings appear to be composed 
of gold. At 12:12:20 the man begins to laugh and throw 
the shavings in the air. 


Date and time depicted: [REDACTED] 
Events observed: A stabilized, static shot of what 


appears to be the face of a decidedly non-human entity, 
bearing marked physiological similarities to recorded 
instances of SCP-_ _, who seems to be staring at the 
camera directly. After a brief pause, the entity cocks its 
head, a movement reminiscent of confusion or curiosity, 
and gestures to something out-of-frame. Exactly twelve 
seconds after this movement, the entity began to 
vocalize, and with a slight delay said "How did you find 
us? Who are you?" This message was repeated in eight 
popular languages, later confirmed to be of identical 
meaning. When Dr. later responded vocally to this 
question, the entity began to reply only in English. The 
interaction is recorded below. 


Further testing is temporarily discontinued and awaiting 
O5 approval. 


+ Interview Log 2335-2 


Interviewed: SCP-2335-2 

Interviewer: Dr. 

Foreword: This interview was conducted through vocal 
correspondence with the entity described above, now 
labeled SCP-2335-2, through the apparent medium of 
SCP-2335. 


<Begin Log> 


Dr. : As a species? We identify as 
human. 


SCP-2335-2: There is a recognition. Are you 
of the species documented in this footage? 


Dr. : The footage on this disc? Yes. For 
what purpose have you been documenting us? 


SCP-2335-2: There is a misunderstanding. My 
kind is not responsible for the creation or 
compilation of the aforementioned footage. | 
am a volunteer member of a local Chronicling 


Cycle, and while performing routine uploads to 
my facility's archives, there was a wonder, as 
we discovered a [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION] containing seemingly 
impossible amounts of data. There was a 
decoding, and footage of what appears to be 
your species was parsed out. There was an 
examination of that footage, and now there is a 
contact with you. 


Dr. : Do you know who was responsible 
for this? We've also stumbled across what | 
imagine to be the same footage, and have little 
to no information about its origins. 


SCP-2335-2: There is a quandary. No 
documented species known to my kind 
possesses the technological capability of 
producing such a high density of recording 
such as this. 


Dr. : How are you capable of speaking in 
English? To what extent has your people 
interacted with mine? 


SCP-2335-2: There is a translation. | am 
speaking currently in my native mouth, anda 
[UNKNOWN VOCALIZATION] is drawing from 
an analysis of documented language depicted 
in the footage stored on the [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION]. There is not an existing of a 
known record of discourse between our 
peoples prior to this point. There is an apology 
if the translation is not perfect. 


Dr. : How are you capable of synthesizing 
the entirety of our languages out of a few 
clips? 


SCP-2335-2: There is a confusion. Have you 
not discovered the anomalous volume of data 


found within your respective data receptacle? 
Does your copy of the footage contain a 
limited amount of information? Our 
[UNKNOWN VOCALIZATION] have been 
parsing the [UNKNOWN VOCALIZATION] into 
footage at extremely high speeds and we have 
yet to discover an end to the recordings 
contained therein. There currently exists 
hundreds of millions of individual instances of 
recordings of your kind in our archives, with 
more being recorded every [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION], all stemming from that 
original [UNKNOWN VOCALIZATION]. 


Dr. : How long has this been going on? 


SCP-2335-2: There has been a vast effort. 
The [UNKNOWN VOCALIZATION] was 
discovered many, many [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION] ago. There has been a 
slowing of the study of this media, as one 
would expect after such a vast run of time, but 
some, like myself, continue to watch and 
analyze and record it. There has been a great 
fascination with the footage, among 
[UNKNOWN VOCALIZATION] and civilians 
alike. Your people, if the documentation thus 
far has been accurate, are fascinating. 


Dr. : You've made the footage available 
to civilians? 


SCP-2335-2: Oh, yes, there has been much 
interest in you and your kind. Have you yet to 
discover the footage of the great footrace, or 
the small one with the present, or the glowing 
festival? Those are among the most requested 
segments from our archives. Gathering to 
watch new footage has become a ritual for 
some, usually performed every [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION]. 


Dr. : So countless members of your kind 
are poring over this material, yet you have no 
theories or ideas as to where it came from? 


SCP-2335-2: There is little to no knowledge. 
There are theories. The most popular is that 
the creator of this media is very much 
intelligent, likely more so than my kind or, and 
there is an apology if this is rude, your kind. 
They do not seem to be bound by time, or 
have some method of sidestepping temporal 
obligation, like a [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION] or a [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION]. The creator of the footage 
also seems to be aware of both of our kinds' 
existences, and, considering that we are 
presumably both watching each other at the 
moment on our respective versions of the 
media, they may even be recording and 
facilitating our interaction at this very moment. 
In fact, there is an idea held by some that it 
may be possible to contact this creator, given 
that analysis of the [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION] suggests it may be a life 
form composed of [UNKNOWN 
VOCALIZATION]. It would simply be a matter 
of- 


At this point, the footage of SCP-2335-2 ended abruptly. 
SCP-2335-2 has yet to reappear on SCP-2335. Due to 
disputes among administration about how to proceed, 
testing on SCP-2335 has been postponed until further 
O5 approval.
