SCP-3380-A077: Yes, that's correct. | was fired recently 
because of downsizing. They didn't have money to 
support me. It's fine. | wanted to quit. They weren't 
focused enough on the scientfic process. Rushing to 
meet deadlines and that. Real science takes years of 
peer review before it can be released to the undeducated 
rubes, but surely you as a scientist understand that, 
correct? 


Dr. Ascariado: That's beside the point. When did you 
first become exposed to SCP-3380? 


SCP-3380-A077: Exposed? Oh no, no, no, Doctor. This 
isn't some disease you can get infected with. This is 
simply an extension of what every logical rational person 
believes. In this cold, meaningless universe the only 
thing you can truly trust is the math. Mathematic thought 
lies at the basis of everything real and provable. 


Dr. Ascariado: So you naturally developed these beliefs 
on your own? 


SCP-3380-A077: Yes, as many others have done 
before. You see, when a system of logical axioms is 
consistent, it cannot be complete, and the consistency of 
logical axioms cannot be proved. We must seek solace 
in trying to prove this. To apply our intellects and our 
sincerity and sanctimony of reason to find a proof. Do 
you understand me, at all? Do you understand why it's 
so important for children to learn to program Python and 
C++ as young as three? For everyone no matter age or 
background to have a thorough understanding of 


cetacean biology? | envision a world where we turn away 
from our churches and hate and towards the microscope. 
Away from Kroenecker and Wittgenstein. Towards 
Cantor and the infinite beauty of the transfinites. 
Towards Epsilon Nought. 


Dr. Ascariado: You identify as an atheist, | believe. 


SCP-3380-A077: | am of the belief that belief itself is a 
disease, yes. Read a lot of Dawkins. As a logical thinker 
we must discount out these sorts of rituals immediately 
before the mental illness takes us all. 


Dr. Ascariado: Okay, as logical thinkers, let's think 
logically. A lot of what you have just told me seems an 
awful lot like doctrine of some kind, no? Or the ravings of 
someone who is not stable, right? 


SCP-3380-A077: (scoffs) This is obvious and logical to 
anyone with a brain. Any sane person can see what | 
can see. 


Closing Statement: Based on similar results with other 
SCP-3380 instances, it seems these sorts of delusions 
are common. I'm also noticing unusual upticks in 
Generalized Anxiety Disorder and depression when 
instances are given therapy to help them ease out of 
their delusions. Unusally for extremism, these bouts of 
anxiety occur after exposure, not before. In fact, no 
SCP-3380 subject displayed symptoms consistent with 
the development of religious zeal prior to exposure. - Dr 
Ascariado. 


Addendum..4 - SCP-3380-A034 Diary Excerpt: 


SCP-3380-A034 was permitted a diary and blunt writing implement 
after consistent good behavior, in order to understand the extent and 
progression of his 3380 infection. This note was delivered to both 

Dr. Ascariado and Dr. Jones, the onsite psychologist on September 
22, 2017 


Last night | had a glorious dream. | dreamed about a 
man who has always held a very special place in my 
heart, Kurt Gédel, except he wasn't a man, oh he was a 
godbeast of a thing, GODEL. | had always admired his 
work but now he appeared before me and | felt my heart 
swell with pride and joy at carrying on his work. He 
appeared as a quadratic function from my youth, all cut 
up and rearranged and full of variables oozing pus from 
every cut and blood dribbling from his infected derivative 
of a mouth. | was so scared but he hushed me and his 
form no longer disgusted me but filled me with beauty. 


GODEL stared into my soul and | saw his eyes dancing 
with Epsilon Noughts, just pouring out of there, and 
within his soul there danced a number just as great, that 
of f-1(7), equal to, if you calculate the infinities 
surrounding it, the Epsilon Nought. The void around us 
was black as ink and beautiful as night. 


He was naked, and offered himself to me. | could see his 
back, and it branched into a surreal number tree. He told 
me he loved us, and loved what we are doing. | could 
see the logic, A to B, as he spoke it and | saw that it was 
true. He offered himself to me and | entered within him. 
His penis was not a penis but a TI-84 and | fell to my 
knees weak at it. | melted into a factorization, and | 
sucked off the alephs until the sperm filled my mouth and 
dribbled down the smooth continous curve of the graph 
until it hit the limit and could go no further. The genetics 
within the sperm possessed divine instructions encoded 
in base-4. No sorry it wasn't divine it was not divine it 
was just sperm. It melded into our thoughts and | could 
see where STEM will be in the immediate future. The 
sperm is the life and we must preserve it. AS we danced | 
watched fire catch the Dedekind hallows at the end of 
the number line, and Epsilon Nought stood there, 
dancing and singing f-1 (7) infinities onwards. He 
whispered something in my ear, gently, and | saw what | 
must do, what we all must do to achieve this forever. We 
calculated a child together. 


It was a wonderful dream, | would have liked to continue 
sleeping to continue dreaming it. Every child should be 
forced from birth to turn away from all else and find that 
same black void and howling orgasm inside the basis of 
a covalent bond. 


Following this, all recorded SCP-3380-A instances in custody 
reported identical dreams, and kept attempting self harm to further 
carve surreal number trees on their skin. When questioned, 
instances would universally say they were "putting it in" and refused 
to elaborate. This applied to all instances not previously determined 
to continue carving. Notably, all instances showed extreme hostility 
towards female personnel, regardless of previous levels of 
sociability. 


Addendum.5 - Incident 3380-Bet: 


On 8-November-2017, 10:21 AM, five SCP-3380-A instances broke 
into Princeton Cemetery and exhumed the corpse of Kurt Gddel. 
Based on reports, instances erratically shouted at the corpse for 
several minutes and intermittently asked for mathematical proofs 
that would "solve educational heretics." Following this, the instances 
repeatedly carved surreal number trees onto the skeleton and 
tombstone until apprehended by police officers. Officers describe 
instances "sobbing" as they were brought into custody. 


Amnestic regimens to witnesses and social media disinformation 
procedures are underway. 


Addendum.6 - SCP-3380-A034 Note: 
The following was written by SCP-3380-A034 on 8-November-201 7. 


He came back to me last night. The void was pink and 
GODEL was smiling at me. | shouted at him, | demanded 
answers for why he had lied to us. | cried and grabbed 
onto him and shouted and sobbed. GODEL didn't 
answer. GODEL smiled. | kept asking as | clawed and 
teared teared teared and gazed into his eyes. The 
number line was burning and the ordinals were the 
crucifix. The eyes pushed inwards with Epsilon Nought 


gushing over my thumbs. Dedekind cuts segmented his 
essence. | asked one last time and no matter how much 
of its head was left it just kept smiling at me. 


| scraped the last dried seed from my mind and saw a 
part of the spine that wasn't eaten, minute and curled 
around zero. The inverse of the inverse of the inverse of 
the inverse of 7. The real 7. The 7 that slinks with theta 
and adds up to zero no matter what you do. The fetus 
should've been strangled but we knew it was too cute for 
that. It was a grand forest of epsilons (positive and 
negative and squared and rooted and $i$) but we knew 
the heart wasn't that big. The infintesimals at the end of 
infinity lock my heart. | went down its spiral to the 
smallest abyss, and | ended up below. | looked below, 
and it smiled. 


Addendum.7 - SCP-3380 Update: SCP-3380-A instances have 
begun carving the Greek letter theta (3) onto their body, often over 
existing carvings of omega. Questioning of this yields no response, 
though instances appear to silently mouth random syllables in 
response.

SCP-3381: Dream Studios 


Item #: SCP-3381 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3381 is to be stored ina 
locker in safe storage when not in use. All testing on SCP-3381 
must be approved by Dr. Corvino and properly documented 
according to Foundation protocols. SCP-3381 must be used every 
two weeks to ensure the object's integrity. This procedure must be 
performed by D-class personnel. 


Description: SCP-3381 is a bed pillow in good condition, of 
standard dimensions and weight. The item is filled with the wool of 
Ovis Aries (common sheep), dried up olive leaves, and dried petals 
of poppies and other narcotic plants. 


SCP-3381 shows its anomalous properties when a human falls 
asleep while using it; subjects under the influence of narcotics or 
alcohol are unable to trigger the effects. When a human subject falls 
asleep, they immediately enter REM sleep. The subject will 
experience a dream about a vast white expanse, with a building 
directly in front of them, which has been designated as SCP-3381 - 
Alpha. The subject will not remember much from these dreams other 
than the mentioned start, with the exception of rare and exceptional 
events. 


It has been observed that using SCP-3381 to sleep provides close 
to no rest, and an intense use can lead to exhaustion. Using it once 
every two sleep cycles has proven to be manageable for most 
subjects. It has been observed that after approximately 10 days of 
disuse, the item will start to deteriorate slowly. It will repair itself 
once used again. How this happens is currently unknown. 


SCP-3381-Alpha has varied from subject to subject, but has always 
been identified as a "movie studio". The words "Dream Studios" are 


always emblazoned on the front of the structure. Any attempt to 
move away from the studio has always resulted in the subject 
waking up. 


The building is inhabited by a group of entities, usually friendly to the 
dreamer, unless inopportune subjects are brought up. SCP-3381-A 
will usually prompt the dreamer to join them in making a movie, and 
will ask for a general direction before starting filming. During the 
following sleep sessions, the subjects will always dream of the 
studio as long as they sleep on SCP-3381. 


After a variable amount of time, the filming will conclude, and upon 
waking up, subject will find a DVD copy of said movie under 
SCP-3381. As of now, the DVDs created by SCP-3381 have not 
shown any anomalous qualities. 


Following are the descriptions of the entities inhabiting SCP-3381- 
Alpha, based on dreamers' memories and the outcome of 
Experiment-3381-5: 


SCP-3381-A is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 
SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity identifies itself as "the director" or 
"Francis Black", and appears to be a middle-aged man of European 
descent. SCP-3381-A is the first entity to interact with a dreaming 
subject, asking for what kind of movie the subject would like to 
make. He has been described as the head of the location, directing 
and instructing the other entities. It is speculated that SCP-3381-A is 
the oldest entity present inside the studio, as it has shown to be 
familiar with events up to 1920. 


SCP-3381-B is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 
SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity identifies itself as "the male lead" or 
"Tony Myers", and appears to be a young man of approximately 
thirty years of age, of African-American descent. SCP-3381-B takes 
the part of an important male role in the movie's production, unless it 
is taken by the dreamer. In that case, it has been recorded acting an 
important supporting cast member. It has shown to be familiar with 
events up to 1928. 


SCP-3381-C is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 
SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity identifies itself as "the female lead" or 
"Claudine Orbison", and appears to be a young woman of 
approximately thirty years of age, of Caucasian descent. SCP-3381- 
C takes the part of an important female role in the movie's 
production, unless it is taken by the dreamer. In that case, it has 
been recorded acting an important supporting cast member. It has 
been described as being well-versed in philosophy and history 
subjects up to 1935. 


SCP-3381-D is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 
SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity identifies itself as the "special effects 
gal" or "Jackie Coos", and appears to be a middle aged woman of 
American descent. SCP-3381-D has been seen dealing with 
preparations before filming, from make-up to constructions of sets. It 
also seems to be the responsible for props or secondary actors, 
producing them via unknown means. These entities usually last until 
the scene shooting is done, before vanishing. These entities are 
docile and amicable, regardless of their normal behavior. SCP-3381- 
D has shown to be familiar with events up to the 1947. 


SCP-3381-E is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 
SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity identifies itself as "the cameraman" or 
"David McAndrew", and appears to be a young man of around thirty 
years of age, of Asian descent. SCP-3381-E has been seen filming 
and editing the movie. It has shown to be familiar with events up to 
1962. 


SCP-3381-F is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 
SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity is identified as "Susie" by the other 
entities, and it appears to be a humanoid-shaped dark mass, around 
75 centimeters in height. It is unable or unwilling to speak, and tends 
to avoid contact with the dreamer, but it has been seen to interact 
with the other entities in a friendly manner, or to observe the 
shooting. 


SCP-3381-G is the designation given to a humanoid entity inside 


SCP-3381-Alpha. The entity has not been identified, as all the other 
entities refuse to speak of it, and react with extreme hostility towards 
it. The entity appears to be a humanoid-shaped dark mass, around 
1.70 meters in height, with long fingers leaking a mix of blood and 
[REDACTED]. It is unable or unwilling to speak, and never comes 
close to the shooting. Various subjects have sighted it observing the 
shooting from far away, standing motionless. Every time the other 
entities are alerted of it, they stop the shooting to chase SCP-3381- 
G away. 


+ Experiment log 3381 


All experiments were conducted under Dr. Corvino's 
supervision. Due to the safe nature of the object, also 
volunteers have also been accepted for these 
experiments. 


Experiment 3381-01 

Subject: D-88254-62 

Notes: Subject was instructed to make an 
action movie. 

Results: Process took 5 days. A DVD titled 
"Grey Roads" was created. The movie 
consists of a well-edited action flick with 
D-88254-62 in the lead role, along with 
SCP-3381-B and SCP-3381-C. Other actors 
were recognized by the subject as people he 
had met in the past. 


Experiment 3381-02 

Subject: D-66354-1 1 

Notes: Subject was instructed to make a 
documentary.
