Special Containment Procedures
As of 2020/06/15, SCP-TCAW is currently uncontained, and must be located and contained as soon as possible. MTF Rho-5 “Stitch In Time” are on high alert within a 100km radius of Site-11, and a total of nine excursion teams are currently performing an active manhunt.
Description
SCP-TCAW is a humanoid entity 1.8m in height and weighing 81.5kg. It is registered as a Class II Temporal Manipulation Reality Bender due to its ability to manipulate the position of an object or area within its own time stream.
It is able to consciously control the manifestation of its anomalous temporal ability through a measure of mental control. Because of this, physical restraints are ineffective in preventing the entity from manifesting this ability. However, it appears to suffer significant pain when using its ability, and has been observed to refrain from using it unless no other options are available.
Despite previous statements from both the anomaly and Dr. Haufstrom, the manifested ability can affect living matter. Extreme caution should be taken in apprehending the anomaly because of this.
NOTICE FROM SITE-88 RECORDS ADMINISTRATION TEAM
This was the first iteration of Dr. Haufstrom's report on SCP-TCAW, before her emotional attachment began to affect her judgement. The information within has been verified to be accurate, if potentially under-explained.

Description
SCP-TCAW is a humanoid entity standing 1.8 m in height. It is registered as a Class II Temporal Manipulation Reality Bender due to its ability to manipulate an object or area's place within its own time stream [See test logs].
It is able to consciously manifest its anomalous temporal ability through a measure of mental control. Because of this, physical restraints are ineffective at preventing the entity from manifesting this ability. However, it appears to suffer significant pain1 when using its ability, and has been observed to refrain from use unless it has no other options. It is unknown if the ability can manipulate living matter, and the anomaly has expressed a strong desire not to attempt it.

NOTICE FROM SITE-88 RECORDS ADMINISTRATION TEAM
This was the second iteration of Dr. Haufstrom's report on SCP-TCAW. You can see changes have been made from the previous iteration to mislead Foundation staff as to just how powerful this anomaly is, as well as its potential to easily cause a breach of the Veil.

NOTICE FROM SITE-88 RECORDS ADMINISTRATION TEAM
This was the third iteration of Dr. Haufstrom's report on SCP-TCAW. More of her personal biases can be seen here, affecting how much she is willing to disclose about how useful this anomaly could be for the study of various other anomalies in Foundation custody.

Interviewed: SCP-TCAW
Interviewer: Dr. Haufstrom, on-site psychologist for Site-11
Foreword: This interview was originally part of a routine psychological checkup. However, upon further review, signs of plans leading up to Breach Event TCAW-B1 can be found within the conversation.
Begin Log: ██/██/2020 15:00
Dr. Haufstrom: Hello, Jeremy. How are you today?
SCP-TCAW remains silent.
Dr. Haufstrom: Jeremy?
SCP-TCAW: 'sanother day, I guess.
Dr. Haufstrom: The days do keep on coming. Is there anything in particular you'd like to talk about?
SCP-TCAW: Why?
Dr. Haufstrom: Hm? Why? What do you mean?
SCP-TCAW: Why do we do this, day after day, pretending that everything is fine when we both know it's not? Why are we bothering with 'checkups' when we both know what the real problem is?
Dr. Haufstrom: So, you know what it is that's causing you distress?
SCP-TCAW: Of course I do. I'm living it every day.
Dr. Haufstrom: Can you elaborate?
SCP-TCAW: Doc. Lily. Come the hell on. Why are we beating around the bush? It's this place. The people that run it. Your boss, his boss, the whole Foundation is the problem.
Dr. Haufstrom: Now, Jeremy, I understand that your stay here has not always been the most pleasant-
SCP-TCAW: A fucking supermax prison is probably a better stay than this. Zero out of ten on TripAdvisor.
Dr. Haufstrom: Jeremy, I-
SCP-TCAW: You what? You fucking what, Lily? You're sorry? You want to make my stay here more comfortable? Well guess what, that's not gonna fucking happen. You can give me the most spacious cell, give me all the fucking video games and books and whatever the fuck else you think you can bribe me with, it doesn't matter. This place is a prison - no, a torture chamber - and it's never going to be anything other than that. Not to me. See, you get to go home at the end of the day. You get to have a home. I have a cell. Not a room, a fucking cell. Just because I can fucking uncrush a pill, your Foundation is allowed to imprison me. I haven't done anything wrong! I haven't gotten so much as a parking ticket my whole life, but just because I'm…..this, you think you have the right to take me from my family, my home, my life, and just keep me locked up in here? Treat me like some subhuman criminal asshole?
Dr. Haufstrom: Listen, the Foundation does a lot of things we'd all rather not. But we do it because-
SCP-TCAW: I swear to fucking God Lily if you say it's "because it's the right thing to do", I….I don't even know what I'll do.
Dr. Haufstrom: Jeremy, you're starting to scare me. Please. I really do want to help you. I understand that the Foundation's methods are often….disagreeable, but not everyone that works here is part of it, or even likes it. We have monthly seminars with the Ethics Committee about how to handle anomalies like-
SCP-TCAW: Like me. Anomalies like me. Not even a human in their eyes, am I?
Dr. Haufstrom: [Sighs.] No. According to Foundation rules, you are an anomaly, not a human person. That's why they want me to call you SCP-TCAW instead of Jeremy. Because it humanizes you.
SCP-TCAW: Jesus fucking Christ, Lily, do you know how screwed up it is to hear that?
Dr. Haufstrom: Do you know how screwed up it is to have to tell someone that?
SCP-TCAW: What, I'm supposed to feel sorry for you now? Sorry, Lily, that's not how this works. Prisoners don't feel sorry for their guards.
Dr. Haufstrom: Is that all I am to you, even after all this? A prison guard?
SCP-TCAW: Don't play that game, Lily. You know that's what all this is. You're just here to keep me happy so that I don't go fucking Magneto and rise up with all my mutant brethren and tear this place down.
Dr. Haufstrom: You know, I wasn't the original researcher assigned to your project. My supervisor, Mark Yang, was originally assigned your wellbeing checkups.
SCP-TCAW: And?
Dr. Haufstrom: And, he's the one that keeps approving your tests. He might even be the one coming up with them, for all I know.
SCP-TCAW: And?
Dr. Haufstrom: Mark is constantly arguing with the EC - that's what we call the Ethics Committee for short - about how we go 'too easy' on the anomalies here, especially the humanoids. Sends out weekly reminders that we're not working with "real people" here.
SCP-TCAW: So he's an asshole.
Dr. Haufstrom: An asshole that could be here, talking to you right now, instead of me.
SCP-TCAW: So you're telling me it could be worse. Is that it? That's supposed to make me feel better?
Dr. Haufstrom: I'm telling you that I chose this position for a reason. A few, actually. And yes, it could be worse. It could be a lot worse. Mark would have had you sedated if you pulled that earlier outburst on him. I just want you to understand that I know this sucks - I won't even pretend to know what it feels like, because that'd just be insulting. I'm just trying to make the best of a bad situation. We all are.
SCP-TCAW: Why?
Dr. Haufstrom: Why what?
SCP-TCAW: You said you had reasons you chose me.
Dr. Haufstrom: Well, one is that I could tell from your entry interview that you and Mark wouldn't get along well. I figured it'd be better for both of you if I was the one in charge of your mental wellbeing.
SCP-TCAW: And what else?
Dr. Haufstrom: Well, I have….had a brother. He'd be a few years younger than you, probably just getting into high school.
SCP-TCAW: Had?
Dr. Haufstrom: I haven't seen him in a few months. And I probably won't, ever again. Or our parents. And they don't even remember me. Nobody in this place gets in here without leaving something behind, regardless of why we're here.
SCP-TCAW: So why did you come here?
Dr. Haufstrom: Because I wanted to help people. And I still do.
SCP-TCAW: What about anomalies, like me?
Dr. Haufstrom: I said the Foundation considers you non-human anomalies. I never agreed with that. That's why I have a half hour meeting with Mark every Friday where he berates me for refusing to use your classification number. That's why I send messages to the EC at least once a month asking to force Mark to stop testing you, or at least limit the number of tests per day. Because I care. [Pauses.] Do you still think I'm just a prison guard?
SCP-TCAW: I'm sorry. I didn't know.
Dr. Haufstrom: It's fine. I think it's better that it's out in the open like this. Do you feel any better?
SCP-TCAW: Not really. This hasn't changed anything. It's still just going to be torture, day after day, with these little meetings of ours being the only thing I can even remotely look forward to. All I can see in my future is a lifetime of torture, until they finally decide to let me die. And as much as I appreciate it, there's nothing you can do to stop them. So I guess I feel better about you, but not about anything else. And definitely not about the jackass you work for.

NOTICE FROM SITE-88 RECORDS ADMINISTRATION TEAM
This was the fourth and final iteration of Dr. Haufstrom's report on SCP-TCAW. At this point, she has deliberately misled Foundation personnel in order to obtain more relaxed security protocols, presumably to aid in Breach Event TCAW-B1

What Are You Afraid Of?
SCP-TCAW Jeremiah Billings is a goddamn human being, and you assholes can’t be allowed to lock him up just because he can do things you don’t understand. You don’t need to contain him, he’s not a criminal, he’s never hurt anyone. He doesn’t know why he has this ability, and it hurts him so much to use it, but you idiots don’t care as long as he’s of use to you. If you’d just leave him alone, everything would be fine.
Who Is Jeremiah?
Jeremiah Morris Billings is a 17 year old boy from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. He’s 1.8m tall and weighs 81.5kg. He misses his parents, Rod and Mary, and their dog Pepper. He loves singing along with 90s songs on the radio and really can’t wait to read the new Dresden Files book.
When he was 14, he discovered that he has the ability to manipulate the temporal positions of small objects and entities, and since then has been able to increase the size of what he can manipulate.
