Instances of dormant SCP-2905-2 (back) and a normal rose plant (front) in SCP-2905.

Item #: SCP-2905
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2905 has been under Foundation quarantine since its discovery in 1998. Personnel removing plant/SCP-2905-2 samples within SCP-2905 must wear the protective gear provided at all times while within SCP-2905. Any personnel bitten by SCP-2905-2 should be brought back immediately to the medical clinic to assess the severity of the bite; SCP-2905-2 toxins vary wildly in potency. Collaboration with Site-45 for further information about POI Izaak and POI Nao is ongoing.
Description: SCP-2905 is a circular garden located on an islet approximately forty kilometers southeast from the Kyushu region of Japan that consists of a combination of various rose plants and SCP-2905-2. The islet itself is about half a kilometer at its longest point. The garden consists of fourteen concentric circles, alternating between a plant ring and a gravel path; SCP-2905-1 rests in the center of the garden.
SCP-2905-1 is a statue of a kneeling woman made of tightly interwoven branches and SCP-2905-2 webbing. It stands on a flattened stone that rises 1.2 meters in the center of SCP-2905; the name "Nao" is inscribed into the stone. Scans reveal that SCP-2905-1 contains a humanoid body that appears to be made of SCP-2905-2 webbing as well. Occasional spherical bulging from within the body has been recorded.
SCP-2905-2 is the term designated to the organisms intermixed with the actual rose plants of SCP-2905. While superficially resembling rose plants, they are in fact colonies of multiple organisms that individually resemble large spiders, each with a flower blooming on the topside of the abdomen. SCP-2905-2 are capable of ejecting a web-like substance; said webbing is in fact more akin to plant fibers coated with sap. The legs of SCP-2905-2 are covered in thorns that secrete toxins similar to those of various spiders. Each colony consists of one to four hundred instances of SCP-2905-2. SCP-2905-2 act as caretakers for SCP-2905-1, cleaning away dirt via brushing with legs, polishing it with rose petals, redecorating it with flowers, etc.
At the end of each month, various portions of SCP-2905-1 open to admit one to two dozen SCP-2905-2 inside of it. SCP-2905-2 secrete large amounts of the plant fiber webbing around the body inside SCP-2905-1, along with occasionally removing and replacing older web layers. After finishing, the SCP-2905-2 inside SCP-2905-1 will proceed to cannibalize each other until only one SCP-2905-2 is left. This SCP-2905-2 will then gather the remains of the other SCP-2905-2 into multiple sac-like webs that it deposits into various slits of the body inside SCP-2905-1 that are absorbed by the outer skin. The remaining SCP-2905-2 will then spontaneously dissolve into liquefied organic matter that is absorbed through the mouth of the humanoid body.
Further scanning reveals the inside of the body contains hundreds of the web sacs deposited by SCP-2905-2, along with what appear to be a digestive system made of web tubing, and a skeletal system made of reinforced plant material. A cluster of sacs are centered around the chest region of the body; within this cluster appears to be a large instance (approximately 7 cm from leg to leg) of a mirror spider (Thwaitesia argentiopunctata).
As of April 17, 2004, SCP-2905-2 have been entering SCP-2905-1 in larger numbers; movement from inside SCP-2905-1 has been increasing with each subsequent addition of material. SCP-2905-1 is now under constant monitoring for further signs of activity.
Addendum 2905-1: On November 16, 1999, personnel discovered another two miniature statues made of interlaced rose branches— one resembling a monkey, one resembling a peacock — concealed within separate rose plants in the outermost ring of SCP-2905. Attempts to retrieve them were initially impeded by SCP-2905-2.
Scans revealed both statues had a book stored inside them; the statues were cut open to retrieve them.
The books contain the accounts of a being called "Nao" (Presumed to be the same Nao as SCP-2905-1). Both books contain day-to-day events recorded in a place currently theorized to be SCP-2746; names such as "Suiward", "Sari", "Izaak", and "Frederick" consistent with other records in Site-45 appear within Nao's recordings. Below are transcripts of the recovered journals. The transcripts are arranged in what is hopefully a chronological account.

Transcript of book found within monkey statue. Translated from original documents written in A-12.

This is so exciting! As of today I am now under the apprenticeship of Healer Izaak! It's such an honor to be learning from one of the most esteemed doctors in ████! It's going to be such a different life for me now! Not that my skill as a decorator was boring; I was truly very happy being able to grow gardens and make weavings, and make our home more beautiful. But I've been handpicked to be a healer's apprentice for my strings, which they say can play a very important role in mending injuries. I'm meeting Izaak later this evening for my first lessons! You'll do fine Nao, I know you will! You're going to learn so much more now!

(The next six pages consisted of various herbs/medicines and their applications.)

This is going to be a lot of work. Izaak's healing knowledge is amazing. He tried to start me off small, but I was still barely able to keep up with his pace. Thank the Maker that I'm able to take so many notes with my legs. This book's going to fill up fast.
Oh, right, Izaak told me to take notes on everything he tells me so I have references later. I can see why, since he has so much to say; I'm bound to forget something.

Izaak said we'd go over some of the unique things I can do myself over the next few weeks. Can't wait to see what he comes up with.

(The next ten pages contained various drawings, diagrams, and charts of different bones and limbs, and how to properly heal them.)

I knew my silk was strong. I've used it in countless tapestries. But Izaak keeps showing new ways it can be used. With enough wrapping and proper positioning I can make casts, slings, and braces for injuries. I've been practicing bone-setting on dummies day and night, with Izaak always overseeing how I do. It's a different kind of bone every lesson, a different kind of break, a different kind of set. But I've been learning Izaak's teaching methods so it's becoming less and less strenuous.

I figured we'd get to stitches eventually even before the lessons started. After just a month of practice Izaak said I excelled at my work.

Today was my first chance to apply what I've learned. Gaareth hurt his arm falling while he was working on a new tower. Izaak and I came to his side in an instant; Izaak diagnosed his injuries then told me to set the bone. Everything went well, and Gaareth should fully recover in no time. Izaak said I did good.

This was an… interesting day. Izaak said he had thought of something new. Usually when we treat someone with more severe injuries, we give them the Black Drink mixed with sedatives, but it takes some time to go into effect, and we have to keep giving it to them throughout the procedure.
So Izaak proposed I deliver the medicine by biting my patients.
It honestly conflicted with what he had taught me previously, but after he explained it made more sense. If I can deliver a small amount of more concentrated medicine straight through the skin instead of waiting for it to go past the stomach, we wouldn't have to worry about the amount of Drink we'd have to give patients. Right now it's just a theory.

Well, theory proven right. Priia came in with several broken toes. She was a bit apprehensive about the proposal, but Izaak insisted. The medicine started working almost immediately. What would've have taken an hour took twenty minutes.

(The majority of the rest of the pages consist of new healing procedures Nao is learning, along with occasional aid given to various inhabitants. Nao accounts of how she is improving her abilities' accuracy/speed, along with various medicinal formulas/mixtures she developed.)

Transcript of book found within peacock statue. Translated from original documents written in A-12.

This is Healer Nao. It's official, I'm no longer just an apprentice, so here's a new journal to mark a new chapter. I cannot believe the six years went by so quick. After Izaak gave the official release, I nearly cried. He's practically a father to me, and I plan on continuing to make him proud.
Gaareth and Mindi are finishing the building for me. Ever since I helped Gaareth, those two have become close friends of mine. And not just them. It's wonderful having so many people that trust me. One of the greatest feelings you can have as a Healer.
I should start writing down everything I need to move over.

(Next four pages consist of a list supplies and various books.)

I haven't written in here for a week. Moving everything took a lot of work. Thanks again to Gaareth and Izaak for their help!

Jasst and Li'ra came to visit me today. They said they've missed my company back in the gardens and weaving rooms. I'm sorry! But they said they're happy for me, and they even brought me some roses and fabrics. For when I have spare time and feel like sewing again they said. Thanks!

(The next six pages consist of logs detailing items Nao and her customers exchanged with each other. Nao also remarks on how she needs extra helpers in her shop.)

Writing again. As much as I love being a Healer, I've been getting tired this last quarter. Izaak visits now and then, and my friends try and help whenever they can, but it's still mostly just me working. And… I'm small. Spiders can only move so much at a time. I'm going to go ask Scholar Dii'anna if she can help me in anyway. Her Nature Crafting is second to none, and the dancing sunflowers she sent have given me an idea.

What a relief. Dii'ana was more than willing to help, and I now have twelve of my personal assistants. Ninety-six more legs around the shop, and Dii'ana designed them beautifully. The large roses on the back are a particularly nice touch. They can even make strings like me! I'll have to start showing them my techniques.

It looks like the thorns are just as good for medicine injections. I had to remove quite a few to avoid unnecessary pricking, but none of them minded it.

What a surprise I got this morning! My rose spiders can reproduce! I found a pile of seeds in between two of them when I woke up. I planted a few of them; going to save the rest for when I need them more.

The following translation was obtained from a spider statue found within the innermost circle of SCP-2905 on February 16, 2001. Translated from original A-12.
Note: Personnel initially uncovered a statue of a hyena within the plants of the innermost ring, but attempts to retrieve it were met with significant hostility from SCP-2905-2; SCP-2905-2 from the thirteenth and twelfth rings also moved in to the fourteenth ring in an attempt to keep the personnel from taking the statue. Eventually, SCP-2905-2 took the statue back, but brought out the spider statue now in Foundation custody. Said statue was taken without SCP-2905-2 interference; an explanation for this behavior is still being discussed.

Everything's been destroyed. It's snowing. It's so cold. My building has been burned down. Everyone wanted the medicines I had stored. I've been in hiding for eighteen days, I think. I managed to save seven of my journals1, a dozen different herbs, and a dozen different medicines. Oh, also the seeds of the rose spiders I've been saving. Six of the original generation are with me; the rest were caught up in the fire.
What happened? I knew there was going to be a celebration for the completion of the new world. I didn't go. I'm not much of a partier. Jasst and Li'ra were with me in the shop. Suddenly we heard yelling outside. There was smoke in the distance, and roaring too. We got scared and locked everything.
We waited a few days before going outside again. The streets were empty. We saw blood on some of the buildings nearby. What's going on?

We spent the next twenty days without seeing anyone. The snow started falling twelve days in. The ground was covered within a night. Jasst started to complain of stomach pains. None of the medicines we gave her helped.

Li'ra's beginning to have stomachaches too. I can't figure out a remedy.

We saw someone else for the first time in forty-five days. Gi'lan was outside our door with his wings torn off and a huge bite mark in his side. We did our best but the bone damage was too severe. He's gone. We buried him outside. But he told us what was going on before he passed. I can't believe it.
That's why Jasst and Li'ra are in pain. They're beginning to starve. Maker, why did you do this to us? Make us need to eat? Eat each other? I've seen Master Frederick's words, Suiward's and Sari's pleas. None of it makes any sense! What am I supposed to do? This is wrong. So, so wrong. I would never I could never hurt someone! What would Izaak say if I harmed instead of healed?

A few days passed, and then we heard sounds of fighting. Pained cries, crashing, it was horrible. Being the Healer I am I dared to go outside and see who was getting hurt. I knew ████ had occasional arguments, but nothing like what I saw.
When I opened the door, there was blood all over the snow. Mindi was on the ground, with half of her face missing. Joor'ra and Helion were EATING her. Joor'ra saw me and flew into the room. He snatched up Li'ra. Oh, Maker. Li'ra's DEAD. SHES DEAD. SHES DEAD SHES DEAD. The rose spiders pounced onto him and jabbed him with all sorts of drugs. I just screamed. By the time they crawled off, Joor'ra was a bloody mess full of holes.
Then Helion came in. We looked at each other for a split second before I grabbed everything I could while the rose spiders kept him from getting near me. Wrapped it all up then sprinted out the door while Helion was still struggling. The last thing I saw looking back was smoke beginning to pour out of the windows.

I'm starting to get hungry too. But I think I can bear it a little longer. I'm not eating anyone yet, right? I'll be fine.
You'll be fine, Nao. You'll be fine, Nao. You'll be fine, Nao.

Izaak. Izaak, where are you? Help me. Help me help me help me help me.

I tried eating some of the rose spider seeds. It hurt. I don't think I can handle this kind of food.

I'm not going to eat anyone. But I can't eat anything else either. Plants hurt. Seeds hurt. Crops hurt. What am I supposed to do?

I'm dying. I'm too hungry to move. I guess in the end I couldn't make myself better.

Izaak came to me. Thank you. THANK YOU.
But he's hurt. He's hurt really bad. He's missing a leg. I was able to disinfect and close the stump but there's no hope in getting it back completely.
Izaak told me I have to find food for myself. I told him I refused. He told me to not be stupid. He told me that Healers can't do anything right now. Those words hurt. They still hurt.
He looked scared. He told me I had to leave. When I asked him why he broke down and said he made something he shouldn't have. He showed me a black fruit and told me to bring out my supplies. I don't know what he did, but he mixed the fruit's juices and some of the other medicines together. He gave the new mixture to me and told me it would help me eat better. I asked him what we were going to do. Izaak sighed and said he had nothing to do with me any more. That he didn't deserve to be called a Healer. After that I fell asleep again. When I woke up Izaak was gone.

Izaak what did you leave me? This is insane. What have you been up to? I can't I won't do this. And even if I wanted to do this, why would I want to become like them? The ones responsible for all our suffering? And from what you've left in these notes, the process would take hundreds of cycles to complete.
Strings as muscle, blood and flesh used from others I've eaten, myself at the center of a body that's so unnatural.
WHAT WERE YOU THINKING WHEN YOU MADE THIS IZAAK
You said you wanted me to be safe. You wanted me to leave ████. Is this place truly worse than anything outside?

I understand you wanted me to have this body, Izaak. If I stay here I'll be eaten, frail as I am. If I leave, the Maker's creations will kill me as soon as they can. They hate the form I've chosen.
I can't write anymore right now. It's too much to take in.

I had to use the mix Izaak gave me. Jasst attacked me. She looked horrible. I don't even think she recognized me. She tried to eat me. JASST WHY WOULD YOU TRY TO HURT ME I bit her with the stuff on my teeth and she screamed. She started seizing up. She MELTED. Izaak, is this how I'm supposed to gather blood for the body you want me to make?
Oh, Maker, Izaak must have done something to the rose spiders. They started wrapping up what was left of Jasst. Just like the drawings. Little pods to attach to me like eggs.

I'm outside. I don't know where I am. The rose spiders must have taken me away while I was asleep.
There's water all around me. Spiders can't exactly swim.

The rose spiders have been growing themselves. There's a huge ring of them growing already. I don't know what they're trying to do. What Izaak's making them do.

I woke up today to find three pods attached to my body. I think they're Jasst.
I passed out. Not sure how long. I'm done.

The rose spiders killed a few of their own and dissolved them with the mix Izaak gave me. They fed themselves to me.
How long will I have to live like this?

I guess Izaak's leaving me no choice in the matter. The spiders have been growing and eating each other, making more and more pods out of themselves. I have a dozen more on me now. Every time I sleep I wake up to find myself covered in more. It's getting hard to move now. I'm not sure how much longer I can write down everything that happens to me.
What will happen to me while I'm changing? Will I even remember everything I've been? What kind of thing will I become?
I have to save all of this somehow. I need to remind myself who I am. With whatever time I have left, I need to leave something behind.

I've made seven containers. Maybe they'll remind me of who I am too. I made them in memory of my friends, right?

You'll keep my memories safe, right?

Item #: SCP-2906
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: The Foundation currently works alongside Unusual Incidents Unit operatives under Collaborative Task Force Psi-12 ("Madvillainy") to isolate and destroy instances of SCP-2906. All documentation affected by SCP-2906 is to be replaced by clean copies. If this is not possible, the documentation must be destroyed. Companies or businesses affected by SCP-2906 (specifically Foundation fronts and United States government facilities) must be monitored for possible spreading of the vector, and any outgoing documentation intercepted and replaced. Any other agents of SCP-2906 are to be scrubbed clean, destroyed, or replaced on a case-by-case basis.
The identity of SCP-2906-1, or its creator, are to be identified as soon as possible and monitored for future anomalous activity. After the events of Incident PoI-1115-C, CTF Psi-12 is to work in conjunction with Mobile Task Force Gamma-13 ("Asimov's Lawbringers") to contain SCP-2906 and coordinate efforts in apprehending PoI-1115 ("Anderson").
Description: SCP-2906 is a modified version of a cognitohazard utilized by the Foundation and its various business fronts. SCP-2906 uses an ampersand design embedded in its agents as opposed to the Foundation equivalent, which uses the acronym SCP.
SCP-2906 prevents observers from mentally connecting its agents1 to SCP-2906-1. Trained personnel are able to identify if a cognitohazard is present; however, they are not immune to its effects and are unable to successfully identify SCP-2906-1 or associate objects affected by SCP-2906 with each other.
Those affected by SCP-2906 can spread the effect through written and verbal communication concerning the vector. Though extensive testing has not been done, some knowledge about the reach of its effects can be ascertained. If a paper document has been marked with SCP-2906, discussing the document and its contents will spread its effects. However, discussing the business or persons receiving the document will not spread its effects.
SCP-2906-1 is the target concept blocked by SCP-2906. An incomplete list of target concepts utilizing SCP-2906 at some point have been recorded in Addendum 2906-D. It can safely be assumed they are familiar with the creation of cognitohazards, as well as the Foundation.
Addendum 2906-A: SCP-2906 was initially discovered during a raid on a suspected cache of items manufactured by PoI-1115 ("Anderson") in San Francisco, California on 04/12/14. Although no items manufactured by PoI-1115 were discovered, several crates containing biomechanical prosthetics and other body augmentations were recovered.
While inspecting the cache, Agent Donovan alerted his squadmates that he was being affected by an unknown cognitohazard. While Agent Donovan was unable to determine what the exact source or effect of the cognitohazard was, he claimed it likely involved the cache. A team of cognitohazard specialists were called in to investigate, and confirmed one was present. The cache was transported to Site-90 to investigate the anomaly (later designated SCP-2906) and both task forces were administered Class B amnestics.
Addendum 2906-C:

Interviewed: Agents Lily Rondeau (Foundation) and Bernard Zell (Unusual Incidents Unit) of CTF Psi-12, Agent Sasha Merlo of MTF Gamma-13
Interviewer: Researcher Alex Factor (Cognitohazard Specialist)
Foreword: Shortly after Incident PoI-1115-C, database searches pertaining to PoI-1115 were conducted. Following the association of PoI-1115 with SCP-2906, an interview was set-up between CTF Psi-12 and MTF Gamma-13, as well as a third party specializing in cognitohazards.
<Begin Log, 11:14>
Researcher Alex Factor: Right, let's begin. I was informed that this was taking place to determine the exact nature of the cognitohazard, as well as the nature of, uh, PoI-1115, AKA Anderson. If you could all state your names for the record. Alex Factor.
Agent Sasha Merlo: Sasha Merlo, Gamma-13.
Agent Lily Rondeau: Lily Rondeau, Psi-12.
Agent Bernard Zell: Bernard Zell, Unusual Incidents Unit, Psi-12.
Rondeau: Should mention that we haven't really had the time to test things out, due to this thing spreading incredibly easily. Hard to even tell how many of these are out there just by its nature. What's in the document is all that we have to go off of.
Factor: I see. Have you had any time to figure out its rules?
Zell: The what now?
Factor: Well, all cognitohazards have rules. They operate in some consistent way to make it work.
Zell: We're not exactly playing kickball. I don't need to reiterate what the document says, so unless you're asking something different, then…
Merlo: What about the Anderson connection?
Rondeau: Dunno. Never heard of the guy until we recovered agents raiding one of his warehouses. Apparently they—
Zell: Don't just talk about it. You'd still be spreading the skip doing it.
Merlo: Look, that's not my point. Anderson's a person, or… I guess the name of a group too, which the person belongs to. Either way, they make anomalous robotics and augmentations. Did the agents find anything there relating to Anderson?
Rondeau: Claimed not to.
Merlo: Just… parts exactly like the kind he makes?
Zell: Yeah.
Merlo: Then how come some people are able to figure out the connection?
Factor: I read over the documentation and tested something.
[At this point, Factor hands over copies of SCP-1360's documentation to all parties.]
Factor: I had the agents review this after interviewing and running some tests on them, and I found—
Zell: But they were given amnestics.
Factor: Cognitohazards… well, infohazards really, stick around. Anyway, they remember Anderson and can identify him and 1360 as belonging to him, but they can't identify the… er, what they found. I tested with other instances of 2906. You can't connect the vector or the agent to whoever made it, but you can identify anything else belonging to them.
Merlo: But if you receive a letter with the skip on it and it mentioned a product, you don't associate the product with the person who sent it. You just don't know who the letter was sent by.
Factor: That's not true. Take a box with a toy inside of it. If you show someone a picture of the box with the vector on it, they're only gonna associate it with the box. But if you tell them that they're gonna look at a picture of a box with a toy inside it, then show them the picture with the vector, they'll associate it with both the box and the toy.
Rondeau: Gonna have to retrain our taskforce on how to approach this, then. Really hope this doesn't get more widespread than it already is.
Merlo: You guys found this raiding an Anderson cache, right? That probably means Anderson made it, and it's likely he let other people or companies use it, the bastard.
Zell: UIU resources would probably be spread thinner than we'd like it to be. I dunno how much more we can dedicate to tracking everything Anderson does.
Merlo: Well, that's why I'm here, isn't it? We're already specialized for dealing with his robotics, it wouldn't be a problem to handle containing this.
Rondeau: Do we go after Anderson and try to stop him from producing items, then? You stop the source, you stop the anomaly.
Merlo: That's probably not plausible. A number of others have the vector by this point, which certainly makes it a lost cause. Trust me, we've been going after him for a while now; it's a pain in the ass.
<End Log, 11:19>

Addendum 2906-E: A letter was received by Site-64 on 06/27/2014. No markings were found on the envelope it was delivered in beyond a postage stamp.

Hey there, guys!
I made a bet with Robert (you know how he is with his gambling) about our little project. As a display of confidence on my part, I'll be regularly mailing you updates on how we're doing, as well as our address, in return for a much broader venue than we originally agreed. I'll continue next week, since we're in the middle of a move at the moment. So stop by if you guys ever figure it out! I'm sure I'll have some pretty cool stuff to show you.
In the meantime, enjoy the mystery, and keep up the good work on containing!
Your friend,
&erson
P.S.: Let me know if my new friends managed to get back to that drive-in theater in Indiana before you!

Item #: SCP-2907
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2907 is to be contained in a circular plot of land in the vicinity of Site-135, 300m in radius, with SCP-2907-1 in the centre. This land is to be cordoned off as private property. At 09:00 local time daily, five two earthworms are to be placed in the area of effect.
Description: SCP-2907-1 is the carcass of an unidentified species of priapulid worm. It is similar in appearance to Ottoia prolifica, a species that has been extinct since the Middle Cambrian period, approximately 505 million years ago. SCP-2907-1 does not undergo decomposition, and its state has remained unchanged since containment began in 1978.
Most of the time, SCP-2907-1 exerts a compulsive effect on several phyla of worm, within a 143m radius. When a susceptible organism enters this range, it will be compelled to seek out SCP-2907-1 and touch it. Upon contact, they will become instances of either SCP-2907-2A or -2B.
Instances will not leave the area of effect voluntarily, and those physically removed no longer show any signs of unusual behaviour, although they will display extreme aversion to returning. If less than five susceptible organisms enter the area of effect in the span of twenty-seven hours, instances of SCP-2907-2 will manifest until that number of instances has been reached. It is currently unknown where the mass for these worms originates.
Instances of SCP-2907-2A form a far more cohesive unit than is natural, regardless of species, working together to create complex tunnel systems, with individual areas for water storage and for young to develop. Instances of SCP-2907-2B patrol the surface above the colony, and attempt to impede the progress of any foreign object or organism into the colony. Instances will protect worms under SCP-2907-1's initial effect, escorting them to it and ensuring physical contact. The exception to this is species of ragworms, which will be met with extreme hostility; instances of SCP-2907-2B will wrap themselves around any ragworm within the area of effect and pull them apart, before burying their remains within the colony.
Periodically, SCP-2907 will undergo what is referred to as a Ziying Event. During this, all instances of SCP-2907-2 will attack SCP-2907-1 and pull it apart, before scattering its pieces around the area of effect. After this, no instances will display any evidence of being under SCP-2907's influence. SCP-2907-1 will reconstitute itself over a period of approximately forty days, after which its compulsive effect returns. During SCP-2907's containment, thirty two Ziying Events have occured. The duration between each event varies, but there has been a general positive trend. The significance of this is unknown.
Addendum 7: On 12/09/80, during routine inspection, Researcher Black reported hearing an unintelligible voice inside SCP-2907's containment that increased slightly in volume the closer she was to SCP-2907-1, which was supported by several assistants. Researcher Black suggested that audio equipment and tape recorders be introduced to the containment area to amplify the voice, in order to ascertain whether there was actual speech. Her request was granted, and the equipment introduced after the next Ziying Event. As a result, a voice of indeterminate sex became audible, speaking in Modern French. From then on, at the same time every week, a different speech in the same voice would be transmitted for approximately one hour.
Addendum 12: Excerpt from speech, 07/11/83:

Now, I know some of you may have misgivings about our work here. And, of course, that's perfectly understandable. But where would any of us be without taking leaps? I can assure you, we are moving towards a glorious era, and my hearts go out to those unable to see it. I may not know whether you can understand this, and even if you can, I may not know how much stock you put in my words. But I hope that you know that what we are working for will come to pass, and that you are as eager to see that great day as I am.

Incident 2907-1: On 09/06/86, 926 days after the end of the previous Ziying Event (the longest timespan yet recorded), SCP-2907-1 was observed to shudder, before expanding and bursting. Immediately after, all SCP-2907-2 instances (approximately 4892) also exploded. Approximately five minutes later, the speakers emitted a message from a previously unheard voice, also of indeterminate sex, in an unknown language. This was followed by presumably a second message in Modern French. SCP-2907-1 reconstituted over the next forty days with no apparent effects on its anomalous nature, although it was later discovered that since this event it will only manifest two worms every twenty seven hours.
Addendum 18: Transcript of second message:

We must admit, we aren't sure if you can understand this, but from what we can see of over there, it talks this language, and we are hoping that it is correct in doing so. Given that we've not had to intervene as much recently, we are assuming that someone over there is cutting off its access to troops, for which we thank you. It fully deserves everything it is getting. Don't believe its lies. We cannot afford to expend so much energy on something of this scale constantly, so we need you and your efforts, so we can simply free you or whoever it has enslaved. Please don't let us down.

Item #: SCP-2908
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2908 is to be kept in a storage container on Site-131. All testing of SCP-2908 is currently forbidden by O5 Council.
Description: SCP-2908 is a Soviet PPSh-41 submachine gun capable of firing any mix of ammunition inserted into its magazine without failing to cycle and load. SCP-2908 is able to fire rounds as large as .50 BMG (13.0mm), the largest round its magazine can hold, despite having a barrel diameter of 7.87mm. Furthermore, high-speed cameras have never captured footage of bullets within SCP-2908's chamber or barrel during firing. It is theorized that SCP-2908 is directly translocating rounds from its magazine to a ballistic trajectory in front of its barrel when the trigger is depressed, and because of this mechanism, SCP-2908 shows no sign of wear or tear from firing and was recorded to have fired 5,788,225 rounds, well beyond the number of rounds a typical PPSh-41 is expected to be able to fire.
Firing a round with SCP-2908 increases the value of the elementary charge by approximately $3.17225789×10^{−28 }$C.1 Uninhibited further increase of the elementary charge will result in an ZK-0 Reality Failure Scenario, where physical and chemical processes of the Universe break down due to the increased charge of the electron and proton.

Memo from O5-10:

While the elementary charge has remained stable after the decision to cease testing of SCP-2908 in 1973, we currently do not know whether that the cessation was due to SCP-2908 being the only object with that capability, or whether other items possess the same capabilities but on a much smaller effect than detectable by the Foundation, or even items with the inverse effect exist which is currently creating an equilibrium. Finding possible copies or items of similar effect is priority one for Mobile Task Force Mu-6 "Pasadena". All Foundation personnel should report any suspicious sightings and leads to that task force.

SCP-2908 was discovered in Myitkyina, Myanmar in 1944. Agent Bo Yu (薄萸), who then was impressed as a soldier in the Chinese New First Army, picked up SCP-2908 after a pillbox was destroyed by a United States air strike, noting that it was highly unusual for the Imperial Japanese Army to use a weapon of Soviet origin. Agent Yu discovered upon rudimentary testing of SCP-2908's ability to use any type of ammunition and used it in combat until 1946 when Agent Yu deserted, taking SCP-2908 with him to Site-131, the Foundation asset in Sichuan, China, where further testing revealed its ability to accept ammunition larger than its barrel would suggest.
The increase in elementary charge was discovered when Foundation researchers discovered a series of unexplained inconsistencies from experimental data to theoretical calculations that started in 1944. Its cause was not isolated to SCP-2908 until November 11, 1973. During this period, the elementary charge increased by $1.83617424×10^{−21 }$C, resulting in the current elementary charge of $1.602176634×10^{−19 }$C.
On March 7th, 1972, Site-131 experienced total power loss for 55 seconds. Upon restoration, Site-131 intranet storage reported upon auditing the presence of a document, now designated Document-2908-Addendum-2, with no known author. This incident was not linked to SCP-2908 until SCP-2908's effect on the elementary charge was ascertained. By this time, Document-2908-Addendum-2 had been designated as the result of a failure in personnel discipline and deleted. Attempted recovery of Document-2908-Addendum-2 was met with only partial success.

Mobile Task Force Mu-6 "Pasadena" was ordered to start a disinformation campaign upon confirmation of SCP-2908's effect on the elementary charge. The Task Force's actions included planting false evidence that Robert A. Millikan and Harvey Fletcher, the inventors of the Oil Drop Experiment that first obtained the value of the elementary charge in 1909, had faked data and used an incorrect value for the viscosity of air. The campaign proved successful when Nobel Physicist Richard Feynman gave his famous cargo cult science speech in 19743, followed with Gerald Holton's published accusation of fraud on Millikan's part in 1978. Current discussion in the physics community on the elementary charge has followed this trend.

Communication from O5-10, Recipient Unknown:
Do you remember what happened with Dr. Jekyll's "pure" salt?4
Denied. Leave #48222319 to us.

Footnotes
1. Elementary charge is a fundamental physical constant that denotes the amount of electric charge held by a single electron or proton.
2. No relevant file of this name was ever discovered or recovered by the foundation.
3. Feynman erroneously explained the continuous increase in measured elementary charge as a desire on the part of the experimenters to be as close to Millikan's results as possible.
4. In Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Dr. Jekyll's potion depended on an impurity within the salt he used as ingredient. Later when he acquired another batch of salt that didn't have the impurity, the potion did not work. He assumed the new batches of salt were impure until it was too late to study the impurity within the original salt.

A photograph of the house SCP-2909 appears in, as taken by agent Arlen Markob.

Item #: SCP-2909
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: The property SCP-2909 is located upon and a neighboring property have been purchased under a Foundation front. SCP-2909 is to be recorded via motion-activated camera. If a person attempts to enter SCP-2909, agents from the neighboring property are to intervene on the grounds of trespassing.
Description: SCP-2909 is a phenomenon located at the basement of an unoccupied house at ██ ██████ ████████ ████████. This phenomenon involves two entities known as SCP-2909-A and SCP-2909-B. SCP-2909-A appears as a Caucasian female of approximately 10 years of age wearing a pale pink dress. SCP-2909-B appears as a Caucasian male of approximately 9 years of age wearing brown shirt and shorts.
SCP-2909 is theorized to be a temporal abnormality in which SCP-2909-A and SCP-2909-B are confined to the period of 4:16 PM on an unknown summer day. All other entities are not similarly confined and after witnessing the phenomenon cannot interact with it again. This is theorized to be because those who have witnessed the phenomenon are considered in the future of SCP-2909 and therefore cannot go back in time to revisit.
Research is ongoing. As of 09/08/2012, research has been suspended indefinitely.

Credentials Accepted

Date: 09/01/2012
Involved Personnel: Researcher Okorafor and Agent Ueda.
Notes: This document is partially the initial interview with SCP-2909-A and SCP-2909-B and partially to record the application of the phenomenon in real time.
[BEGIN LOG]
<8:10> Researcher Okorafor and Agent Ueda arrive to SCP-2909. The basement of the house SCP-2909 is located in appears to be well-furnished and the walls decorated with undamaged wallpaper. There is a clock on the northern wall that lists the time as 4:16 PM. Of the few windows visible to the outside, the outside appears to be a sunny summer day.
<8:11> Researcher Okorafor and Agent Ueda find SCP-2909-A and SCP-2909-B reading together in another room which appears to be a bedroom.
<8:11> Researcher Okorafor: "Hello? Can you understand me?"
<8:12> SCP-2909-A: "Yes, ma'am. I have understood."
<8:12> SCP-2909-B: "I will understand."
<8:13> Agent Ueda can be seen removing her gun. Researcher Okorafor doesn't seem to notice. Reseacher Okorafor: "How long have you been here? How did this happen to you?"
<8:13> SCP-2909-B: "We were here a moment. We are here a minute. It should be over soon but soon will not come."
<8:14> SCP-2909-A: "Everyone we knew and know and will know to know what was and is happening is not here and will not be here again."
<8:14> Reseacher Okorafor: "Has anyone else been here since we've arrived?"
<8:16> SCP-2909-A and SCP-2909-B look to each other and hug each other for approximately 2 minutes. Upon release, SCP-2909-A speaks. SCP-2909-A: "People are here, were here. They will not be here again. One kind man had put a gun to me."
<8:17> SCP-2909-B: "Then he shot her and then shot me. He is shooting. But the bullet will hit. It has not yet."
<8:18> SCP-2909-A: "He wanted, he wants to get us out of here so we can, we will grow and will be able to miss our parents, who will be gone, are gone."
<8:18> SCP-2909-B: "He saw we will be dead as we are dead, but when he left we still are here, because we haven't died yet."
<8:19> SCP-2909-A and SCP-2909-B, in unison: "But yet isn't coming. It only will, but it isn't willing."
<8:20> SCP-2909-B: "Please be helping. Please help us now." SCP-2909-A reaches for a teddy bear and hugs it tightly.
<8:20> Reseacher Okorafor: "We will do all we-" Researcher Okorafor stops mid-sentence. Reseacher Okorafor: "We are doing what we can, now. Take care, ok?"
<8:21> Researcher Okorafor and Agent Ueda leave SCP-2909. Upon leaving, Researcher Okorafor attempts to re-enter the basement. The basement appears abandoned and in a dilapidated state, similar to the rest of the house.

Item #: SCP-2910
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: The automated voice-recognition programs WETNURSE ALPHA through ZETA have been deployed to monitor global telecommunications networks (each WETNURSE monitors a single continent), identifying and flagging phrases and sentences that could indicate occurrences of SCP-2910. Once a phrase is flagged, Mobile Task Force Epsilon-8 ("The Midwives") will be automatically alerted to investigate and, if necessary, recover instances of SCP-2910-A. Civilians that have viewed an instance of SCP-2910-A in person are to be transferred to the Site nearest their location and treated with the therapy regimen outlined in Document 2910-1.
Description: SCP-2910 is a phenomenon that sporadically, randomly affects at least two people giving birth via vaginal delivery at the same time; the affected persons will not deliver infant[s] but rather instance[s] of SCP-2910-A: a disorganized collection of organs and body parts (lungs, brain, mouth, ears, eyes, etc.) that belong to a newborn infant, held together by congealed blood. SCP-2910-A is animate and emulates the behavior of newborn infants, such as crying (sound is emitted from the mouth through unknown means) and rooting. As SCP-2910-A ages, it mimics the behavior of infants at the equivalent age (for example, by six months SCP-2910-A is able to move by itself). However, it does not grow and cannot consume any foodstuffs except milk (and only while breastfeeding). After twelve months, it becomes inanimate and begins to decompose normally.
Instances of SCP-2910-A uniformly derive half of their genetic heritage from the person who initially impregnated the woman who gave birth to them; statistical analysis, records of events, and genetic analysis indicate that the other half of their genetic heritage is not derived from their 'birth-mother', but rather another woman who experienced SCP-2910 at the same time.
The memory of SCP-2910-A cannot be removed by any means available to the Foundation; although all other circumstances of its birth, including the actual process of giving birth, can be erased via amnestics, anyone who viewed SCP-2910-A in person will still recall it and its traits with perfect clarity. Hypnotherapy and application of interrogation techniques to convince affected civilians that SCP-2910-A is simply an illusion caused by stress has proven an effective alternate tactic.
Addendum: Recovery Log
The first recorded occurrence of SCP-2910 was recorded on July 16, 1983. At 04:35 and 04:37 UTC, James Knight of South Hadley, Massachusetts, and Frederic Noel of Nievre, France, respectively, made phone calls to local emergency services. Both men described how their wives, who had chosen to undergo natural childbirth at home, had delivered instances of SCP-2910-A. In both cases, the deliveries made the local news and drew the attention of the Foundation. Epsilon-8 investigated and classified SCP-2910 as an anomaly once it was discovered that the Knights and Noels could not be treated fully with amnestics (the families were treated with the aforementioned alternative therapy instead).
Addendum: Geographic Pattern
███ cases of SCP-2910 have occurred since 1978; the number of cases per year appears to be increasing at a continuous rate. Recent analysis and plotting of occurrences on a Mercator projection has shown the rough outline of a distorted Fermat's spiral; however, all attempts to use this model to predict the locations of SCP-2910 occurrences have failed.

Item #: SCP-2911
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Public knowledge of SCP-2911 is limited to residents of its village. Due to its remote location, SCP-2911 is regarded merely as regional folklore by residents of northeastern Iwate Prefecture. Low-intensity media suppression protocols are therefore the only necessary containment at this time.
Description: SCP-2911 is a fisherman known only as "Mikio" to the residents of Tanohata village, located in Iwate Prefecture, Japan. SCP-2911 is a male of Japanese ancestry, approximately 62 years of age. SCP-2911 has innate and accurate knowledge of the future time of death for residents of the village, in an approximately 15 km radius from his dwelling. SCP-2911 appears to gain this knowledge spontaneously, however, it is only obtained approximately one week prior to each resident's death.
Research Log 2911.A - Interview Notes by Doctor Kanae Todoroki, 09.10.14
Concerning the Subject:
How long has it been?
Since I was a boy, with my grandfather.
How do you know?
I was born knowing, and then I remember. Each time.
Is it a burden?
Are people a burden? For some, this is so. I am not so.
What do they do?
I come to them, and I offer my company for a day. They always accept.
Are they afraid?
Before, sometimes. After our day, never.
Is it a hard life, for you?
My possessions are few, but I am surrounded by beauty. My friends all die, but they are true. I am at peace.
Why is it you?
I cannot know. Perhaps I am dreaming.
Is life a dream?
I believe it is sometimes. Other times, I believe dreams are real. I think you might too.
Do you know it, for yourself?
We all remember, eventually.
Research Log 2911.B - Documentation
The residence of SCP-2911 is sparse and ascetic in nature, the only ornamentation a series of poems hanging from the walls, written by residents of Tanohata at some point after SCP-2911 informs them of their pending demise. Transcriptions follow:
Masaomi Chisaka
One half, I am now
Briefly, I am whole again
Soon, whole forever, I rest
Otoha Furuya
The waves, they bring salt
Fury, love, tranquility
Waves wash over me, cool, quiet
Arinobu Yanagisawa
I was so strong, ha
We went fishing, as always
The fight done, the boat sways, night
Giuseppe Bevilacqua
They say home is far
The sea is my land, my liege
I have found my place, at last
Hideji Domoto
I can't understand
The sun was radiant, bright
I shall enjoy this tea, now
Captain Eizō Wakamatsu
My duty is gone, free
The cries have now quieted
Brotherhood of all, I join you
Yumiko Kayama
My silly old man
You knew you always had me
My dearest old man
Make love with me in the wind
The birds sing the song
Of friends, and lovers, old hearts
Echoes, in the sky
Dreams of where water meets earth
Past death, past time, we shall sleep

« SCP-2910 | SCP-2911 | SCP-2912 »


Item #: SCP-2912
Object Class: Safe Neutralized
Special Containment Procedures: The remains of SCP-2912-1, SCP-2912-2, and SCP-2912-3 are to remain preserved within individual cryogenic storage units at Biological Containment Site-66.

 ARCHIVED: Special Containment Procedures

 ACCESS GRANTED

SCP-2912 are to be held in isolation within individual Humanoid Containment Units at Biological Containment Site-66. SCP-2912 instances must be fed a strict diet of "Circus Peanuts"1 and sugar water that has been artificially colored purple2. Foundation physicians are to remain on standby, despite knowledge of SCP-2912 health and biology being extremely limited at this time.

Description: SCP-2912 designates three roughly humanoid organisms resembling typical circus clowns: SCP-2912-1, SCP-2912-2, and SCP-2912-3. Genetically close to human (all instances sharing a relatively recent common ancestor in Homo sapiens sapiens), SCP-2912 entities have/had undergone severe and varied corporeal and psychological augmentation(s). All contained instances of SCP-2912 were abruptly neutralized on 11/16/1998 - the incident determined to be entirely accidental with blame placed on PoI-4569's failure to communicate relevant information to Foundation personnel.

SCP-2912-1 Overview:

An almost entirely spherical body.
A complete lack of a skeletal system.
While its legs, arms, and head did exist, they were found to be vestigial and heavily atrophied.
Closely resembling an air-filled balloon, SCP-2912-1 was able to transport itself through the air via an internal gas bladder (created from the left lung, so grossly enlarged that it occupied the majority of internal space) and modified anal sphincter.
Black and white skin, forming horizontal stripes around its body.
Capable of extending a long black tongue - the act producing a vocalization similar to the sound produced by "party horns"3.
Although its level of intelligence could not be ascertained, it was at least capable of understanding several English words (mostly in the form of commands).

SCP-2912-2 Overview:

An unusually tall (2.56 meters) and spindly (with the exception of its left hand and abdomen, which both appear bloated) humanoid organism
Capable of producing music from its asymmetrical and disjointed body.
Vertebra are comparatively large and oddly shaped, producing sound similar to a xylophone in use (with 'songs' appearing to differ in correlation with the present angle of SCP-2912-2's spine). How it was able to create these sounds without directly striking individual vertebrae was never deduced.
The left hand was large and flat and used to strike its bloated abdomen - the resulting sound similar to those produced by bass drums.
Its face lacked eyes, had a bulbous red nose, (capable of honking despite being entirely organic) and was primarily dominated by a large mouth (devoid of lips).
Yellow skin covered in red 'polka dots'.
Vocalizations failed to correspond with any known musical instrument but has been described by Foundation musicologists as resembling an accordion crossed with an ondes Martenot.4
Potentially higher intelligence than other SCP-2912 entities, as it was able to compose unique music when commanded to do so.
Music produced by SCP-2912-2 triggered strong emotional responses among listeners - it remains unknown whether this reaction was anomalous or simply an explainable psychological response.

SCP-2912-3 Overview:

Resembled a biological human more closely than SCP-2912-1 or SCP-2912-2. The appearance of face-paint is part of its natural appearance.
Laughter was apparently its only form of vocalization. This noise represented a cognitohazard and triggered uncontrollable laughter among its listeners, lasting for 6 to 32 hours.
An ability to create cream pies seemingly out of thin air. It is speculated that nearby matter was transmuted and teleported to SCP-2912-3 in the form of cream pies.
[DATA EXPUNGED]

These anomalies were discovered on 10/05/1998 after a raid on a fair ground that had hosted Herman Fuller's Circus of the Disquieting only minutes before the arrival of Foundation operatives. One small tent was left behind, the others having vanished as operatives approached. Inside were SCP-2912-1, SCP-2912-2, SCP-2912-3, and PoI-4569.

+ Interview: PoI-4569

- ACCESS GRANTED

Interviewed: "Dick C. Normus"5
Interviewer: Dr. Patrick Dolan
Foreword: Subject is a Caucasian male and is believed to be between 40 to 60 years of age.
<Begin Log>
Dr. Dolan: Please explain what you were doing prior to your apprehension.
PoI-4569: Listen fuck-face, I don't go to your job and pull the anomalous cock out of your ass. I got work to do and Mr. Fuller ain't exactly the most patient bloke.
Dr. Dolan: So you are a member of Herman Fuller's Circus of the Disquieting?
PoI-4569: Yeah. What's it to you?
Dr. Dolan: What is your profession?
PoI-4569: Clown breeder.
Dr. Dolan: Excuse me?
PoI-4569: You deaf? I'm a motherfucking clown breeder.
Dr. Dolan: How exactly does one become a 'clown breeder'?
PoI-4569: My father was a clown breeder. My father's father was a clown breeder. My father's father's father? Well, he was a horse beater…
Dr. Dolan: And what does this job actually entail?
PoI-4569: You that fucking stupid? It's in the god damn name.
Dr. Dolan: Enlighten me.
PoI-4569: I. Breed. Clowns.
Dr. Dolan: I see. Is this an old profession? You mentioned your father and grandfather…
PoI-4569: [interrupting] Well, in the real old days, ya didn't have no breeders. Back then the best we had was child breakers.
Dr. Dolan: Child breakers?
PoI-4569: What, ya think all freaks are just born that way? Body does a lot of growing when young. Just got to help it along a certain path - course, back then you could only make a hunchback. Nah, they deserve more credit. I mean, the Laughing Man, Turtle Boy, hell, the Inside-Out Girl? They was done the old way.
Dr. Dolan: As you say. I think that is all we need at the moment. Thank you for your time.
PoI-4569: Fuck you.
<End Log>

On 11/16/1998, all SCP-2912 entities self-terminated between 0400 and 0600. Video revealed no changes in behavior prior to the neutralization event, when SCP-2912 instances abruptly exploded - their containment units coated in blood, viscera, confetti, and a viscous black liquid of uncertain purpose. When confronted about this incident, PoI-4569 stated (verbatim): "You fucking shit-eaters forgot to milk the clowns, didn't you? Way to ruin a decade of work, you cunts."
Addendum: An incident occurred on 12/25/1998, when video surveillance within PoI-4569's cell showed the door opening (while external video depicted the door as closed and no alarm was triggered). During this time, the faint sound of calliope music became audible within the cell and PoI-4569 proceeds to converse with an unidentified individual:

Unidentified Individual: [voice is notably deep and atonal but words are muffled and inaudible]
PoI-4569: 'Bout time you got here! Is that a smile or a frown? I can never tell with you.
Unidentified Individual: [inaudible]
PoI-4569: A liability? Come on, I'm the best fucking clown breeder ya got and Mr. Fuller knows it.

The unidentified individual then briefly entered the cell - they appear muscular but further details are obscured by a cloud of what appears to be smoke, which permeates the cell via the anomalous doorway. PoI-4569 cried for help but security personnel were unable to reach him in time. An autopsy revealed that his cause of death was acute myocardial infarction (more commonly known as a heart attack).

Image of SCP-2913 taken in containment. Exposed skeletal structure not visible.

Item #: SCP-2913
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2913 is to be held in a standard humanoid containment cell. SCP-2913 is to be afforded basic requested luxuries for as long as its continued cooperation with the Foundation is maintained.
A grenade pin, formerly belonging to an M67 fragmentation grenade, is to be kept in a clear protective case in SCP-2913's cell.1
Description: SCP-2913 is a severed right hand, formerly belonging to James Hallman (deceased), which is capable of independent movement. Approximately 5.1 centimeters of the radial bone and 4.6 centimeters of the ulna extend, uncovered by skin, behind the wrist joint. Despite the lack of a biological support system and obvious trauma associated with the terminating ends of the bones behind the wrist joint, SCP-2913 remains healthy.
SCP-2913 is capable of speech, hearing, sight, and smell. SCP-2913 has shown a moderate level of skill in complex problem solving. While SCP-2913 has been observed to move its fingers and thumb together in tandem during the act of "speaking", observation of SCP-2913 has revealed the auditory source of speech to be between the 1st and 2nd metacarpal bones even in the absence of motion.
SCP-2913 was originally recovered by the Madison, New Jersey Police department responding to a nuisance noise call. Officers found SCP-2913 grasping a wireless television controller. SCP-2913 then proceeded to speak with the responding officers. After SCP-2913 apologized for using the apartment's television without prior permission, the officers radioed dispatch to report the anomaly. Foundation agents monitoring local police bands investigated the incident and after administering amnestics took SCP-2913 into custody for further study.

SCP-2914 during testing

Item #: SCP-2914
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Only personnel who submit a formal request and receive approval from site command may operate SCP-2914. SCP-2914 is to be stored in locker 2109-B when not in use.
Description: SCP-2914 is a glass-fronted wooden cabinet, 66 cm in height and 38 cm in width, composed of unremarkable materials. The cabinet contains three glass shelves. The back of the interior of the cabinet is a mirrored surface.
The cabinet contains twenty-two stoppered glass bottles, each with a capacity of approximately 0.1 liters. Under normal, non-testing conditions these bottles are empty.
SCP-2914's primary anomalous attribute manifests when a human subject physically touches the glass front of SCP-2914 while specifically recalling a particular memory. Under those circumstances, the glass front momentarily becomes opaque, then transparent again to reveal that some or all of the bottles within the cabinet have been filled with various substances.
Partial test log of SCP-2914 (deconstruction configuration) follows:

Note: Subject did not seem to know the names or effects of the chemicals created. This seems to indicate that 2914 has some idea of chemical compositions of different substances.
Test reference: 0001
Subject: D-2914, Notably has severe retrograde amnesia
Description of Test: Subject was instructed to touch SCP-2914. Due to communication barriers, a specific memory could not be selected
Result: Bottles were filled with the following substances/materials:

A single bottle with a single smaller bottle which also contained a smaller bottle. This pattern reaches 53 consecutive bottles before ending in a glass cylinder that has no open space.

Addendum #1
After debriefing D-4962 following the test of SCP-2914, Dr. Morrison inspected SCP-2914 to document the contents of the bottles. In the course of doing so, Dr. Morrison briefly touched the glass front of the cabinet before the bottles had been removed or disturbed. Dr. Morrison reported that he experienced a first-person hallucination which corresponded to the details of D-4962's recollection.

Addendum #2
Researcher Marcinkiewicz attempted to replicate Dr. Morrison's experience by causing D-5452 (a 52-year-old woman) to touch the glass front of the cabinet about an hour after Test 0023 involving D-4962. By this time, the ice in bottle #5 had melted, and portions of the samples in other bottles had been removed for testing. D-5452 reported experiencing a first-person hallucination that involved a bumpy ride for several hours inside a BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle, following which the point of view exited the vehicle and marched with other Russian soldiers into a barracks. Extensive interviewing of D-5452 regarding the details of the scenery and setting of the barracks indicated that it was located in northern France. There are no historical reports of Russian military forces operating a BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle or maintaining a military presence in that region.
The experience prompted Dr. Morrison and Researcher Marcinkiewicz to commence a separate series of tests.
Partial testing log of SCP-2914 in its antideconstruction configuration follows:

Test reference: 0166
Subject: D-7871
Description of Test: Researcher Marcinkiewicz filled bottles as follows:

Soil (obtained from Central Park, New York City)
Grass clippings (obtained from Central Park, New York City)
Water (New York City tap water)
Rolled-up newspaper clipping advertising a "Shakespeare in the Park" event
Cigarette

Result: Subject had never visited New York City. Subject reported experiencing a hallucination of a visit to Central Park. Subject's descriptions of some park landmarks differed from their real-world counterparts.

Test reference: 0182
Subject: D-8386
Description of Test: Researcher Marcinkiewicz filled bottles as follows:

Sample of D-8386's blood
Air, with concentrations of oxygen and sulfur dioxide
Seawater
Limestone
Fern frond
Crushed, powdered coal

Result: Subject reported hallucination of standing on the shores of a sea while several large animals (presumably hadrosaurs, based on the description given) grazed nearby.

Test reference: 0184
Subject: D-8392
Description of Test: Researcher Marcinkiewicz filled bottles as follows:

Seawater
Sand
Blood of Crocodylus porosus (saltwater crocodile)
Fish viscera

Result: After recovering from severe nausea, subject reported experiencing the sensation of being a female Crocodylus porosus during the act of mating.

Test reference: 0188
Subject: D-7884
Description of Test: Researcher Marcinkiewicz filled bottles as follows:

Distilled water
Liquified, heated polyurethane
Iron filings

Result: Subject blacked out for approximately 35 minutes. When subject recovered, subject reported having experienced the sensation of asphyxiating in outer space. After extensive interviews conducted with the use of hypnosis and nootropic tropic medications, subject was able to describe the environment that she had observed during her experience, which consisted of the interior of an orbital space station operated by the Indian Space Research Organisation, the hull of which had been damaged exposing the interior to the vacuum of space. The Indian Space Research Organisation has not, to date, ever launched a space station. Subject experienced acute PTSD and has been deemed unsuitable for future testing.

Test reference: 2932
Subject: D-11328
Description of Test: Dr. Morrison filled bottles as follows:

Sample of D-11328's blood
Sample of blood of D-0936 (a D-class personnel stationed at a different facility who had never encountered D-11328)
Grass clippings from several widely separated sources
Soil samples from several widely separated sources
Wine (blend of two different vintages not normally available for purchase at the same place)
Strips of musculature of several different animals
Metal filings (obtained from sampling various historical artifacts including a Roman-era iron architectural component, a bronze Tang-dynasty Chinese bell, and an iron spearhead from southern Africa)

Result: Subject blacked out for several hours. Upon recovery, subject was confused and distressed and had lost the ability to communicate in English. Over the course of a series of interviews conducted over a period of weeks with the liberal use of nootropic medicines, researchers learned that subject was able to communicate in an archaic form of the Telugu language. Subject, although female, identified as a male and reported that "he" had lived for at least thirty years as a traveling merchant, transporting merchandise overland from the region of Khorasan (Central Asia) to the city of Amadomoglu (which does not appear on historical records but, according to D-11328's account, was located on the east bank of the Volga River near the northern Caspian Sea). Most of the details of D-11328's report do not correspond to identifiable historical places or events, but the report included an account matching the description of SN 1054 (a supernova in the constellation Taurus that occurred in the year 1054 AD). Subject's last chronological recollection was of a "Daeva attack", after which subject could not recall any subsequent events. Subject had no recollection of her life before the test.

Test reference: 2937
Subject: D-114078
Description of Test: Dr. Morrison filled bottles as follows:

Coffee from Site 22 break room
Fresh water
[DATA EXPUNGED]
[DATA EXPUNGED]
[DATA EXPUNGED]
[DATA EXPUNGED]

Result: Subject reported hallucination of unremarkable events in Site 22's D-class secured dormitory. Four days after test, D-114078 escaped from secured dormitory, apparently by means of successfully impersonating Dr. Morrison and obtaining unauthorized access to Site 22's data files and security center. Dr. Morrison was killed during the escape. D-114078's whereabouts are unknown.

Rating: 24


Item #: SCP-2915
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2915 is owned and operated by Foundation agents as a typical Wendy's franchise, under supervision of MTF Psi-25 "Trapped in the Drive-Thru". Personnel are to maintain all professional standards set forth by the Wendy's corporation. Night-shift guards are to be equipped with gas masks and broad-spectrum UV lights.
The freezer is to remain padlocked.
Employees are encouraged to ignore all sounds emanating from within.
Description: SCP-2915 is a Wendy's franchise restaurant located in ██████, Ohio. The establishment possesses two primary anomalous properties.

The menu at the time of containment did not align with normal Wendy's products, appropriate health standards, or typical terrestrial biochemistry. All salvageable foodstuffs were removed from the premises for controlled laboratory study.
The freezer does not possess a floor. The depth of the resulting shaft is unknown – probing missions have proven inconclusive. Six winch systems are attached to the ceiling of the freezer, each consisting of a chain and large meathook. These winches are controlled by a series of valves located at the door. One chain remains lowered into the shaft.

Attempts to reach the bottom of the freezer shaft have been unsuccessful – the longest-surviving probe broadcast for over four months before communication was lost. Adjusting the height of chains has not been attempted beyond establishing the use of the valves.
Yellow gas of currently-indeterminate chemical makeup will leak from the freezer during nighttime hours, generally between 0200 and 0445. This gas is heavier than air, mildly toxic (long-term exposure will result in damage to the lungs and kidneys), and will dissipate under concentrated ultraviolet radiation.
Sounds might occasionally be heard emanating from within the freezer, and may include banging within the shaft, the rattling of chains, the scraping of metal on the inside of the door, and distant echoes of “I've Got You Under My Skin” by Frank Sinatra.
