OPENING SUPPLEMENTARY FILE.

Item #: SCP-1463-A
Unknown Item Details: A monolithic structure with an unclear shape, apparently tall enough to phase through the ceiling.
Details Revision 1: Patterns of spirals with arachnid limbs.
Details Revision 2: A network of fibers that are connecting to every object within the office. Eyes line each one.
Details Revision 3: Portions of my grey matter.
Special Containment Procedures: Protocol MESA-ALEPH must be performed for the containment of SCP-1463-A. Protocol MESA-ALEPH is as follows:

Retrieve the pistol.
Raise the pistol.
Aim the pistol at your forehead.
Pull the trigger.
Pull the trigger.
Pull the trigger.
Aim the pistol away from your body once the trigger has been pulled.
Load one bullet into the pistol.
Turn to face SCP-1463-A.
Fire into SCP-1463-A.

Description: SCP-1463-A is a component of SCP-1463 that exhibits a weak antimemetic effect. Its method of hunting is by allowing itself to be perceived by a subject, which enables it to begin integrating with the subject's consciousness until the consciousness is entirely consumed. As SCP-1463-A and the subject are connected during the process, events perceived by the subject as potentially harmful or lethal will be perceived as such by SCP-1463-A, which can force it to stop the integration process.
The entity is presently neutralized, though its presence is a sign of SCP-1463 manifestation.

Mnestics Administration and Use Guide

Journal compromised — second best option
AV 1. Procure a sterile autoinjector from the mnestics case. Check the blue tab near its base; if the tab is instead red then it has been used before. If this is an autoinjector you have only used on yourself then this should not be important. If not, then retrieve a different autoinjector. Broke intercom speaker. Won't let what happened to Qoppa-4 repeat
OI 2. Load the autoinjector. To do this, open the black cap on the autoinjector and attach it to the the connector on the mnestics container you have.1 bullet fired, 6 bullets left Press the green button on the autoinjector and it will automatically load with a safe dose. Detach from the connector when1 bullet fired, 15 bullets 2 bullets fired, 4 left the bar on the autoinjector is entirely green. God damn amnestics are being eaten. Couldn't hide them behind the bookshelf. It's becoming the damn amnestics and I keep forgetting to do anything about it2
Someone was banging on the door and wanted to come in. I knew not to trust them when their voice went inside-out
DF 3. [ILLEGIBLE: Covered in black paint] then press down on the red button [ILLEGIBLE: Covered in black paint] Memetic vectors hidden. Keep reading and grab some food from cafeteria (left turn, right turn, directly forward) when coast is clear.
REMEMBER EXIT
IL 4. [ILLEGIBLE: Covered in black paint] Whoever wrote this file can fuck themselves
Power keeps going off, lights are flickering like all hell wrong lights
E 5. Avert your eyes from any objects that were not previously present in your vicinity. These are likely [ILLEGIBLE: Covered in black paint] Contact a containment [ILLEGIBLE: Covered in black paint] Paint hides vector, paint hides prey

NOTICE FOR ALL SCP-1463 RESEARCHERS: All versions of this file have not physically or digitally existed. When you first opened this document you viewed a specially designed cognitohazard, which implanted a memetic entity (Oz-Ω2) into your head. Using techniques based on the Memetics Division's Project Radix, Oz-Ω2 can create documents that exist in a purely informational sense, drawing both from base data in Oz-Ω2 and your thoughts on the events you are experiencing. This document serves as a way to rationalize your thoughts when faced with dangerous antimemetic and memetic threats, such as SCP-1463, which can be the best method of survival.
The encounter you just had with SCP-1463 in this office should let you understand how useful Oz-Ω2 will be. In any other circumstances your mind should be wholly consumed by SCP-1463 after you learned of it, but by using this document you kept enough semblance of sanity about you to try fighting back (door barricades will never be useful against it, though, so don't rely on them — it always finds another way in).
Only view this document when you can mentally project its existence onto a tangible format, such as imagining the document to be existing on a piece of paper or computer terminal, with any changes you imagine making perceived as you writing or typing them respectively. Failing to do so risks destabilizing the memes being used, which would cause potentially lethal mental harm. Human minds better comprehend the physical world than abstract concepts.
Special Containment Procedures: Oz-Ω2 will begin guiding you to Provisional Site-33, where you will be protected from further SCP-1463 encounters and provided with new mission objectives.
Normally this file is hidden in Foundation databases and marked as deleted (serving as the best method of containment for SCP-1463 yet), but since several major breaches of antimemetic anomalies are in progress (including one at your location) it was decided to send the file to get researchers to safety. Research Team 1463 apologizes for exposure to SCP-1463, but the information on the anomaly attached to Oz-Ω2's document would cause exposure in all cases, and we have found no way to remove it that won't compromise Oz-Ω2. No other documents with an entity like Oz-Ω2 have been developed yet.
Do not go to others for help. Doing so risks exposing other subjects to information on SCP-1463. Avoid amnestics as well — they will not make SCP-1463 forget you. When SCP-1463 manifests again, resume reading this file. Until you arrive at Provisional Site-33, you are alone.
Description: You know all you can know at this time. Proceed to Provisional Site-33 and do not stop moving.
Good luck.
