can generate blackstrap molasses from a flask-shaped protrusion on 
its back, and then control the motion of that molasses. It is 92cm tall 
and made of wood, porcelain, cloth, silver, and iron, and responds to 
the name "Jeffrey". It is capable of speech, but is of low intelligence. 


Every Tuesday,! SCP-2045 will generate 2 liters of blackstrap 
molasses from its flask and telekinetically direct the molasses into 
the bucket.2 


SCP-2045 claims to have been made by a woman who it refers to 
only as "Miss", and who it is unable to describe in useful terms (see 
interview 2045-5). It claims to have resided in her home (which it is 
likewise unable to describe usefully) and to have generated 
molasses for her on a weekly basis, until the day it was unable to 
find her. In her absence, it continued generating molasses "until it 
wasn't Tuesday any more", at which point it began to search for her, 
and to telekinetically carry the molasses with it "because nobody 
came to get it from me and it's not good to just leave it behind".

SCP-2045 is a mobile coherent mass of blackstrap 
molasses, currently located in the American Northwest. 


SCP-2045 is approximately 300 x 300 x 10 meters in 
dimension, with fluctuations based on movement and 
absorbed objects. SCP-2045 weighs about 
1,324,160,000 kg, indicating that SCP-2045 has 
absorbed a significant amount of material during its 
existence. 


SCP-2045 flows at an approximate rate of 10 km/yr. 
When SCP-2045 was first discovered (on 5/6/1907, in 
the Cascade mountain range), it was believed that its 
motion was due solely to the effect of gravity, similar to 
glacier movement. However, as of 9/3/1989, when 
SCP-2045 completely detached from the Cascades onto 
the plateau, SCP-2045 continued motion at a rate of 

~8 km/yr despite no obvious motive force. 


Objects that come into contact with SCP-2045 are 
trapped and absorbed; this is not believed to be 
anomalous, but is simply the result of coming in contact 
with a large mobile mass of molasses. While it is 
possible to mount recovery operations for personnel 


trapped in SCP-2045, the resources involved are 
tremendous, and due to the large amount of physical 
trauma and rapid asphyxiation that occurs, the likelihood 
of success is low. Out of the five attempts made to 
rescue Foundation personnel, only one was successful. 


SCP-2045 has a large amount of objects trapped in it, in 
a manner similar to the action of glaciers. In addition to a 
large number of boulders, dirt, architectural debris, 
cadavers of various animal species (including at least 
400 humans), and dead trees, SCP-2045 also appears 
to contain a parachute harness, and several firearms and 
vehicles. Due to SCP-2045's composition, these appear 
to be perfectly preserved. 


The age of SCP-2045 is unknown: dating of samples has 
been inconclusive, and SCP-2045 has suffered no 
apparent deterioration during its time in Foundation 
observation. 


Due to the motion of SCP-2045, a trail of debris is 
perpetually left behind it, in a pattern similar to glacier 
debris. In order to avoid suspicion, these debris are to be 
collected as described in the containment procedures. 


SCP-2045 was first discovered by the Foundation in 
1907 during a flyover of the Cascades to test then-new 
aerial surveillance technology. Due to its isolation, 
SCP-2045 was classified as safe and kept under nominal 
surveillance. However, after an unknown event altered 
the course of SCP-2045, resulting in the destruction of 
the town of [REDACTED], the object's classification was 
raised to Euclid, and to Keter when it was realized that 
SCP-2045 did not require gravity to power its 
movements. Since then, SCP-2045 has been under 
perpetual Foundation observation, and has traveled a 
total distance of 980 km. 


Excerpt of Interview 2045-5; full transcript available upon request with 
level-3 security clearance or higher 


SCP-2045: Hi, Dr. ! Has Miss shown up yet? 
Dr. : No, Jeffrey, she hasn't. 


SCP-2045: Aw. Well, it's not Tuesday, so it's not 
molasses-making time. But it's almost Tuesday, right?4 
You just have to wait a little while, and then | can make 
molasses for you! 


Dr. : No, Jeffrey, that's not necessary. I'd like to 
ask you some questions about Miss, actually. 


SCP-2045: Oh! All right. Miss is very kind to me! 


Dr. : Yes, I'm sure she is. Could you tell me what 
she looked like? 


SCP-2045: Uh... she was big. Bigger than me. 

Dr. eee clnicle 

SCP-2045: Oh, I'm sorry, did you want more? 

Dr. : Yes, please. Whatever you can remember. 


SCP-2045: She... she could walk around? | remember 
she walked around a lot! Sometimes she'd be in one 
room, and sometimes she'd be in another room, and 
sometimes she'd walk from one room to another room! 
Sometimes she came to get the molasses from me, and 
sometimes | brought it to her while she was doing things! 


Dr. : | see. Jeffrey, could you maybe tell me about 
Miss's face? 


SCP-2045: Yes! She had one! 
Dr. :... what? 


SCP-2045: She definitely had a face. Yes. And hair, | 
remember that. Oh, and lips! Lips are for giving kisses 
when I'm good! Am | being good? 


Dr. : Yes, Jeffrey, you're being good. Can you tell 
me about Miss's hair? What color was it? 


SCP-2045: Hair has a color? 


Dr. : Yes, was it black, or white, or brown, or 
maybe yellow or orange? 


SCP-2045: |... | don't know. | didn't notice. I'm sorry. I'm 
sorry! Am | being bad? | don't want to be bad! 


Dr. : No, Jeffrey, you're not being bad. 


SCP-2045: Can I... can! have a kiss, then? [SCP-2045 
points to its forehead] 


Dr. : When we're done with the questions. All 
right? 


SCP-2045: All right. 


Dr. : Good. Jeffrey, can you tell me what color 
Miss was? 


SCP-2045: Um, | don't understand what you mean. 
Dr. : Her skin. 


SCP-2045: Oh! Skin! Yes! Yes, she had skin! She 
absolutely had skin, | Know that! And | couldn't see all of 
it all the time, because she wore clothing! Clothes are 
important, right? 


Dr. : Yes, but | meant... all right, you remember 
Dr. , who was here to talk with you the other day? 


SCP-2045: Yeah! She's nice! 
Dr. : And you remember what she looks like? 
SCP-2045: Yeah? 


Dr. : Remember how her skin is light pink? And 


my skin is dark brown, see? 
SCP-2045: It is? ... It is! Wow! | never noticed that! 


Dr. : Can you tell me if Miss's skin was light pink, 
or dark brown, or maybe another color? 


SCP-2045: I'm really, really sorry. | don't know. | really 
don't! Honest! | didn't know it was important! Um, um, 
um, eyes! 


Dr. : Eyes? 


SCP-2045: She had eyes! | remember now! Eyes are for 
looking! She had two of them, and they were on her face! 
Like yours! And they were white, with little dots of color in 
them, just like yours! | remember! I'm being good, yes? 


Further interviews with SCP-2045 have been similarly unproductive. 
Acquisition log: 


The designation SCP-2045 was originally applied to the coherent, 
mobile, +1.3-megaton mass of molasses which was under 
Foundation surveillance beginning in 1907. In 19 , the Foundation 
undertook an operation to destroy >99.9999% of the mass of 
molasses via a combination of incendiaries, directed-energy 
weaponry, and [REDACTED] technology, with the goal of reducing it 
to a form small enough to be properly contained. The entity now 
known as SCP-2045 was discovered at the mass's center, still 
generating molasses. An on-site operative spontaneously vocalized 
a request that the entity stop making molasses; the entity complied, 
and asked whether it had generated enough molasses. It was 
subsequently taken into custody. 


Footnotes 

1. Although SCP-2045 understands that "Tuesday" is a recurring 
phenomenon, it does not appear to grasp the frequency (i.e., once 
every seven days) with which Tuesday occurs. In the absence of a 
calendar or other external reminder, SCP-2045 will decide, 
apparently at random, that a given day "feels like Tuesday"; this will 


also occur if personnel repeatedly misinform SCP-2045 as to when 
Tuesday occurs, in which case it will attribute the misinformation to 
memory lapse or simple error. 

2. In the absence of a bucket, SCP-2045 will continue generating 
molasses until it decides that it has generated "enough". 

3. For reference, the mass of a 300 x 300 x 10 m block of pure 
blackstrap molasses would be 1,312,560,000 kg. 

4. The interview in question took place on Friday.

SCP-2046: Mendeleev's Nightmare 


Item #: SCP-2046 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2046 must be affixed to 
the wall of a secure, air-tight containment cell equipped with an 
airlock and radiation shielding. Several other, non-anomalous 
periodic tables of identical dimensions to SCP-2046 must be affixed 
to the wall nearby. At any given time, there must be no fewer than 
twenty (20) periodic tables on the wall. In addition, the containment 
chamber must have a table set with a one gram (1g) sample of the 
first 92 elements on the standard periodic table of elements,! each 
sealed in an air-tight glass bottle. 


Every 24 hours, a D-class personnel equipped with a Level A 
hazardous materials suit must inspect the periodic tables and 
compare them to another periodic table for reference (one not stored 
in the chamber). D-class personnel assigned to this duty must be 
largely ignorant of the subject of chemistry,2 and are to be treated 
with class C amnestics afterwards. Periodic tables that have been 
modified by SCP-2046’s effect (hereafter referred to as SCP-2046-1, 
see below) must be taken down and replaced with new periodic 
tables. Instances of SCP-2046-1 are to be sealed in a black paper 
envelope, shredded, and incinerated. Similarly, the element samples 
must be disposed of and replaced on a monthly basis. 


Should the radiation inside the containment chamber begin to 
exceed 2000 CPM, the air must be evacuated, stored in shielded 
gas canisters, and disposed of. 


All waste produced during the course of containment procedures 
must be deposited in one of the Foundation’s secure, underground 
radioactive waste disposal centers. 


Description: SCP-2046 is a poster of the periodic table of elements 


printed on a sheet of glossy paper, roughly 91 by 61 cm in 
dimension. When not observed, SCP-2046 will expand itself, adding 
new elements and groups to the periodic table it depicts. New 
elements added in this way do not conform to the established laws 
of chemistry or the organization structure of the periodic table. At 
time of writing, SCP-2046 displays 191 anomalous elements, only 
of which are listed on the Foundation’s expanded periodic table. 


SCP-2046 exerts a memetic effect on observers, causing roughly 
80% of them to believe that the anomalous periodic table depicted is 
the “correct” periodic table, and will express confusion when 
presented with the standard periodic table. The other 20% remark 
that something seems amiss with the table, but unless they are able 
to compare it to another, non-anomalous periodic table, they will be 
unable to say what. Administration of class C amnestics have been 
somewhat effective in removing this effect.4 


In addition, SCP-2046 will introduce these anomalous elements into 
the surrounding environment by transmuting random atoms into the 
new elements. Most of these anomalous elements cannot exist in 
Our universe, and decay instantly into fundamental particles, 
resulting in the gradual build-up of radiation. Human beings exposed 
to this effect will begin to show symptoms similar to heavy metal 
poisoning, radiation sickness, and [DATA EXPUNGED]. The exact 
rate of transmutation has yet to be determined, but it is noted that 
prior to containment, SCP-2046 hung on the wall of a lecture hall at 
[REDACTED] Georgia for roughly a month prior to the first reported 
cases of affected students. 


Instances of SCP-2046-1 are other periodic tables affected by 
SCP-2046. If a periodic table is left unattended in proximity of 
SCP-2046, it will eventually change to match the anomalous table 
depicted on SCP-2046. Instances of SCP-2046-1 do not share 
SCP-2046’s ability to transmute elements, but they are still a 
memetic hazard, and must be disposed of in accordance with the 
special containment procedures (see above). 


Under the direction of Dr. , researchers were able to develop 
containment procedures using [REDACTED]. By exposing 

SCP-2046 with representations of the standard physics-compliant 
periodic table and elements, SCP-2046’s physics-distorting effects 


are inhibited. Since the implementation of these procedures, no new 
elements have appeared on the table, and the level of radiation 
within the containment chamber has only risen [REDACTED]. 


Addendum: Senior research personnel predict that the release and 
propagation of stable, anomalous chemical elements could damage 
the laws of chemistry, eventually resulting in a CK-class reality 
restructuring event. As such, all experiments involving the 
anomalous elements themselves are restricted, pending O5 
approval. 


Footnotes 

1. Exceptions can be made for highly unstable atoms, such as 
francium, astatine, etc. 

2. A lack of high school level chemistry education is sufficient to 
qualify as "largely ignorant" for this purpose. 

3. SCP-2046's dimensions do not change. The periodic table itself 
scales down to accommodate new elements. 

4. The effectiveness of this treatment seems inversely proportional 
to the subject's knowledge of chemistry. All D-class personnel 
lacking a high-school education have thus far been cured with a 
single treatment, but more educated subjects, such as the students 
of [REDACTED] who were initially subjected to this effect, often 
suffer relapses, requiring multiple subsequent treatments. The 
original owner of SCP-2046, Dr. , who has a PhD in chemistry, 
remained uncured after treatments, and was eventually given class 
B amnestics. Treatment of this scale requires lengthy rehabilitation, 
and is generally not recommended.

SCP-2047: Collaboration 


Item #: SCP-2047 
Object Class: Keter 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2047 is to be held ina 
containment chamber which utilizes a Faraday mesh in its 
construction to block incoming or outgoing radio signals. SCP-2047 
is to be monitored for radio communications. Any radio signals, or 
changes in the intensity of light sourcing from SCP-2047 are to be 
reported immediately to the site director. 


MTF Omega-4 "Foreign Exchange Students" is to monitor major 
astronomical centers and public communications for claims relating 
to details of the SCP-2047-1 event or its effects. Amnestics are to be 
administered to any non-Foundation personnel possessing 
knowledge of anomalous data in relation to the SCP-2047-1 event. 
MTF Omega-4 is also to monitor and contain any spacetime 
anomalies resulting from event 2047-1, as well as displaced 
biomass, non-Euclidean intersections of terrain, and transplanted 
matter. 


Description: SCP-2047 is a hollow iron sphere with a 40 cm 
diameter, covered in language originating from Theta-c. These 
inscriptions describe the process that occurs in Event 2047-A, asa 
warning system for the target planet. The surface of SCP-2047 has 
so far proved unnaturally resistant to attempts to open or cut into the 
cavity inside. Scans of SCP-2047's innards only reveal the basic 
outline for advanced machinery. Nothing is understood about how 
SCP-2047 functions or how it is capable in assisting in Event 2047- 
A, other than to relay a radio signal back to Theta-c. 


Event Log 2047-A-1973: 


Day 1, 7/13/1973: At 00:01:01, Earth and an exoplanet designated 
Theta-c undergo an exchange of spatial position. Earth is deposited
