Welcome to my sandbox, which is currently being used for an SCP idea of mine, 'Total Contrarian'. Name not final - I really like the phrases "they may not stay silent" and "they may not ignore the danger" from the second draft, they're quite ominous, so I might use one of those instead.

Any notes from me will be marked with "—A/N".

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is housed in a 20x20x20 meter cell. Sprinklers, sleeping gas vents, and tanks of hydrochloric acid are installed, to be used in the event of an emergency. SCP-XXXX is to be fed an appropriate amount of food daily, corresponding to its current dietary requirements.

These procedures are subject to change. In the event SCP-XXXX breaches containment, any available staff must verbally emphasize how deadly and aggressive SCP-XXXX is, and point out that it is uncontained.

Description: As of ██/██/20██, SCP-XXXX is a yellow labrador retriever (Canis lupus familiaris). SCP-XXXX displays behavioural characteristics typical of one, and for all nonverbal purposes, is to be treated as such.

The anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX manifest whenever a verifiably true fact about SCP-XXXX is verbally spoken. Reality will change to such a state that the fact spoken is no longer true. Aside from the rules discovered through experimentation, no limits to this ability are known, including physical proximity, or knowledge of SCP-XXXX or its anomalous properties.

The exact methods through which SCP-XXXX judges a statement to be true or false are not well understood.

Addendum 1: Experiments were conducted to discover more about SCP-XXXX, its capacity, and its limitations. To account for SCP-XXXX's properties, all logs are recorded purely in text form.

Experiment Log XXXX-1:
Date: ██/██/19██
Subject: Dr. ██████
Scenario: Subject stated that SCP-XXXX has red, leathery skin.
Result: SCP-XXXX's skin rapidly turned green, before becoming soft and sprouting feathers.
Note: I didn't say anything about not having feathers. Intriguing. -Dr. ██████

Experiment Log XXXX-2:
Date: ██/██/19██
Subject: Dr. ██████
Scenario: Subject stated that SCP-XXXX does not have wings.
Result: No changes occurred.
Note: Okay, so negations of truth are a no-go. -Dr. ██████

Experiment Log XXXX-4:
Date: ██/██/19██
Subject: Dr. ██████
Scenario: Subject stated that SCP-XXXX has green skin, and that the Group of Interest known as the Chaos Insurgency exists.
Result: SCP-XXXX's skin rapidly turned blue. Foundation assets embedded within the Chaos Insurgency verified that they had observed no changes.
Note: Direct relation only. Well, that's disappointing. -Dr. ██████

Experiment Log XXXX-7:
Date: ██/██/19██
Subject: Dr. ██████
Scenario: Subject stated that SCP-XXXX has killed and eaten dozens of humans.
Result: No changes occurred.
Note: Time is out of its reach. Not sure if that's disappointing or relieving. -Dr. ██████

Addendum 2: Due to the extremely volatile nature of SCP-XXXX, several incidents have occurred involving accidental activation of its properties.

Incident Log XXXX-2:
Date: ██/██/19██
Subject: Dr. ██████
Scenario: Shortly after a failed experiment, subject remarked that SCP-XXXX 'would be the death of [him]'.
Result: See Incident Log XXXX-3.

Incident Log XXXX-3:
Date: ██/██/19██
Subject: Assistant Researcher █████████
Scenario: While going over a list of contained SCP objects, subject (who was not aware of SCP-XXXX's properties) stated that SCP-XXXX, along with many others, is contained.
Result: The blast door to SCP-XXXX's containment cell de-materialized, allowing SCP-XXXX to breach containment. ██ casualties followed. SCP-XXXX came into direct contact with Dr. ██████, however seemingly ignored him. The breach ended when a site-wide alert announced that SCP-XXXX had breached containment, at which point it returned to its cell with no further incident.
Note: I… I don't know how to feel about this. -Dr. ██████

Incident Log XXXX-12:
Date: ██/██/20██
Subject: Unknown
Scenario: Unknown
Result: The blast door to SCP-XXXX's containment cell de-materialized. SCP-XXXX grew large teeth, and began a rampage through Site-██. ██ casualties followed.
Note: Following a review of the incident, it is clear that knowledge of SCP-XXXX has leaked to a malicious third party. Given the near impossibility of permanently containing SCP-XXXX, Site Director ██████ has recommended termination of SCP-XXXX to the O5 Council.

Please don't call it a good boy. -Dr. ██████
