Guuuuurrrrrllll!! This is why self care is important. You miss shit when you need to sleep. Take care of yourself.

Feeding tests

Two food types are placed inside of SCP-|||||||’s containment at a time when feeding the subject. The results are below.

Test one

Items: One pile of pan-fried steak equal in weight to a cow. A cow.

Results: Subject ate both the pile and the cow.

Test two

Items: a pile of chicken nuggets from [REDACTED] fast food restaurant weighing equal to an average human male. One group of chickens, also weighing equal to an average human male.

Results: Subject ate the chickens, and looked disgusted with the nugget pile.

Test three

Items: [REDACTED]

Results: Never again. That was disgusting to watch.

Test four

Items: A D-Class with culinary experience and enough supplies to feed SCP-|||||| any dishes of the D-Class’s choosing.

Results: Subject ate until the D-Class ran out of food, then allowed the D-Class to leave. It refused to allow the cooking supplies to be removed, and has moved them into a corner of its containment cell. More than likely a sign it wants more.

Conclusion: SCP-|||||| is capable of associating humans with a supply of food and deciding not to eat them if said human is providing meals that it enjoys. Also, apparently [REDACTED] chicken nuggets are unfit for even its consumption (A being I have personally watched eat a metal table)

An unexpected outcome

Experiment Director: Dr. Bezruk

Date: ||||||||||||

Experiment Subjects: SCP-||||||| and SCP-999

Foreword:

Dr. Taylor is on a mandatory sabbatical due to insubordination during the request (or, as Bezruk put it, ‘demand’) of performing this test and, while this test has been approved, Taylor is being punished by not being allowed to be involved.

Begin log:

After Bezruk is briefed on both the containment procedures and the experimentation request Taylor outlined, a collection of D-Class and personnel are gathered in preparation.

two D-Class are tasked with setting up the lighting to avoid a containment breach due to the containment cell needing to be open for easy extraction of SCP-999 in case of emergencies. Preemptively, exterior containment measures are already in place in case ||||||| leaves its cell.

999 is released into |||||||’s cell. It appears confused. More than likely that was due to the lack of anyone within the cell. ||||||| is still within its sleeping space, though soon leaves to show itself. 999, while momentarily startled by |||||||’s sudden appearance, soon settles down and begins to approach. ||||||| is visibly agitated by 999 being within its cell. It moves to swipe 999 with its fore-claws once 999 is within range. 999, of course, is unharmed by the action and instead envolopes |||||||’s claws. ||||||| hisses and growls, gnashing its teeth against its own limb in an attempt to sever it. Halfway through, though, 999 begins to apply its anomalous properties by nuzzling its pseudopods against |||||||. ||||||| freezes in place, then immediately sits down. All violent action ceases and ||||||| begins releasing sounds which can only be described as ‘content’. Once ||||||| appears fully calm, two D-Class are sent into |||||||’s cell. They are instructed to attempt physical contact with |||||||. |||||||, upon being ‘pet’ as D-28647 put it, leans much like a dog into the touch. 999 continues to nuzzle ||||||| and soon has climbed onto the subject’s neck.

Conclusion:

This test has been a total success and this log is ending here. 999 will be removed and ||||||| is to be given more space to sleep.

Addendum (audio log made by Dr. Bezruk):

That son of a bitch! I am never working with that bastard again. I went to remove 999 from its cell. Upon removing the SCP, ||||||| BIT ME. Thankfully, the medical team on standby were able to remove me and 999 from its containment and it didn’t attempt escape. Little [DATA EXPUNGED] took my arms.

Addendum two (2) (written by Dr. Taylor):

||||||| more than likely was uncomfortable and Bezruk startled it. Or, perhaps, it didn’t want 999 to leave. Possibly a combination of the two. It didn’t know Bezruk, and as such had no reason to think he wouldn’t harm 999. A request for more testing of this nature will be supplied and, once again, I am requesting that I be the one allowed to perform the testing. ||||||| is used to me.

Experimentation Request [UPDATE]

Upon confirmation of the counsel’s approval of the request and upon receiving the equipment requested, set up has begun and currently we are working on replacing a monitor broken by the subject. It appears, however, to now understand that it is not a living being and will more than likely not lash out again at it.

[Asks directly for the subject are now open. Verbal responses are impossible, though translation of behavior will be given by Dr. Taylor when available.]

AUDIO LOG

-Static-

H---o?

Hello, can you hear me?

Good, the comms are functioning again.

This is Commander Farzaneh Pollard Sadiq broadcasting from Exploratory Vessel XR-59308. We are roughly [REDACTED] minutes away from the destination.

The devices have been armed, and we are readying deployment of the -static-.

We should be able to see the targe-- 

[A second voice, identified as Mission Specialist Leos]

Leos: What in the flying fuck is that?

Sadiq: What is what? What do you see, Leos?

Leos: It’s more like.. What I don’t see. There’s no stars over there... Other than.. That one.

[Supposedly, Leos is pointing out the ‘there’ and ‘that one’ in question to Commander Sadiq]

-Static, metallic crunching. The beeping of the [REDACTED] being armed. Silence-

EXPERIMENTATION LOG

Experiment: Attempted eradication of the anomalous being which had been spotted a year prior near MACS J1149+2223 Lensed Star 1. 

Experiment head scientist: Dr. [REDACTED] Taylor

Experiment procedures:

A spacecraft had been dispatched to intercept the anomaly and deliver multiple singularity devices into the area around it. These would, hypothetically, create multiple non-anomalous black holes around the entity and pull it inside out to collapse in on itself. Tests upon other singularities have been considered a success.

Experiment results:

Upon contact with the anomaly, the crew was wiped out and the devices deployed via a dead man’s switch mechanism set to activate upon the vitals of all the crew going flat-line. The built-in video systems were only capable of identifying a quadrupedal, massive creature with a neck extending an excess over 20 metres in length and a body reaching roughly 13.33333376 metres in length. These dimensions were estimated via identification of the stars not visible in the image that were before the anomaly’s arrival into frame.

I nearly died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital!

New Story has been published on http://enzaime.com/i-nearly-died-in-the-ambulance-on-the-way-to-the-hospital/

I nearly died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital!

My name is Rita Ann Reimer. I am 68 years old and live in Annapolis, Maryland.

I had my first heart attack in October 2008. By June 2009, I had suffered a Code Blue and had 10 stents and a defibrillator.

I was then relatively stable for several years, but starting in June 2013 I had a series of increasingly serious heart episodes. On April 7, 2015, I had a heart attack accompanied by severe respiratory distress and nearly died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital.

All this time I had been told that my arteries were too narrow for bypass surgery. This was not good news as my arteries were over 90 percent blocked.  But this was about to change!

I have been a Baltimore Orioles season ticket holder for 36 seasons. On Memorial Day, May 25, 2015, I went to an Orioles game and suffered another heart attack right outside Camden Yards. The ambulance took me to the University of Maryland Medical Center, which is right next to the stadium. It was my sixth hospital in eight months, in three states.

First, I would like to thank the Emergency Room staff not just for their expert care, but for their kind and reassuring manner. Having your defibrillator fire repeatedly is painful and scary. Unlike another recent hospital experience, they were very sympathetic and even helped me breathe my way through several potential firings.

But mostly, I would like to thank cardiac surgeon Dr. Bradley Taylor, who after examining my records said he thought I was a good candidate for bypass surgery. I admit that at first I was politely dubious, having been told for years that that this was not an option. But given my 90 percent blockage, I felt that I had no choice. And it turned out he was right!

I had a successful triple bypass on June 5. On June 10 they also replaced my six-year-old defibrillator with a newer model that is supposed to last for 11 years. Two months later, I have been cleared to drive and have started a cardio rehab program at my local hospital. While I still have a ways to go, I’m definitely stronger and have more energy. Thank you, Dr. Taylor!

And also thank you baseball! Had I not been a baseball fan this almost certainly would not have happened, as I would have been taken to another hospital and would not have met up with Dr. Taylor. I am a very lucky person!
