Interviewed: SCP-5704-1.
Interviewer: Junior researcher Daniels.<Begin Log>
Dr. Daniels: Welcome, I'd like to ask you a few questions, Mister..?
SCP-5704-1: Doctor! Doctor Aleksandr Trunklovyev.
Dr. Daniels: Ah, of course. Doctor, have you always been capable of speech?
SCP-5704-1: No, you buffoon, I learned it when i was little baby like everyone else. You monkeys are even dumber than i thought.
Dr. Daniels: How did you come to be in the circus?
SCP-5704-1: I was caught in the wild, when my captors realized i could understand them they offered me a choice, i do what they say or i am whipped.
Dr. Daniels: Are there more like you?
SCP-5704-1: Oh yes, four billion when I left.
Dr. Daniels: Left where?
SCP-5704-1: My planet, Earth, in the Milky Way galaxy. it is almost identical to yours, but, i've seen your maps, they are… backwards.
Dr. Daniels: I see, and when did you arrive on our planet?
SCP-5704-1: Well you see that is what has bugged me for six years, the digital clock in my pod said it had been nearly one million years since I left, but once I reached civilization I learned it was the same year, 1974.
Dr. Daniels: So you're an astronaut too? and why did you come to this galaxy in the first place?
SCP-5704-1: Cosmonaut! Me and my comrades were sent to this distant galaxy a few years after a message came from it saying "Greetings from the Milky Way galaxy, or what we call home". A message from a type three civilization, presumably inviting others to join their society.
Dr. Daniels: We'll get back to that. You say you have comrades?
SCP-5704-1: Ugh! yes I did, one chinese and one american. There was this organization that kept the public blind to these aliens, they took us, the best of the best from three nations and fed us to the void. The ship was torn apart when I landed and I have not seen them since before take off, we were frozen you see, I do not miss them though.
Dr. Daniels: Do you have any more information regarding this type III civilization?
SCP-5704-1: No, just that meaningless message from you fucking monkeys. You know I learned of "house cats" recently, in my world we had house mans, I myself had four of the adorable little shits; you are not so cute anymore.
Dr. Daniels: Noted, thank you for your cooperation.
