Item #: SCP-746-J
Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-746-J is to be secured in a wall-mounted glass case near the entrance to SCP-███'s containment chamber. If the glass appears damaged, worn, brittle or cracked, a site-wide lockdown must be initiated to ensure the safety of the Foundation as a whole. If any unauthorized Foundation personnel are spotted in Sector A██ of Site-██, a nearby security team must be notified and dispatched to their last known location for termination. If SCP-746-J is pushed, damaged or destroyed at any time, O5-█ must be warned to prepare for an XK class end-of-the-world-scenario in order to determine a method to delay the process of destruction.

Description: SCP-746-J is a circular red button 7cm in diameter and protrudes 3cm out of the wall it's mounted to. On the face of the button there is a worn out label, which reads "IN CASE OF EM(unintelligible)Y, PU(unintelligible) TO CALL F(unintelligible) (unintelligible)LP". Due to lack of usage, it is coated in a mixture of dust and mold.

SCP-746-J has been observed to have a memetic effect on those around it. Researchers and other Foundation personnel report an urge to push the button. SCP-746-J coaxes them into saying they simply want to push it due to its color and size, however Dr. Poll hypothesizes it is simply a ruse to release itself from containment.

"That button can NOT be contained. Every day, someone tries to push the button, regardless of the protective glass panel obscuring it from the naked eye.1 A standard Safe SCP wouldn't be able to escape containment so easily. A Keter SCP would trick its victims into releasing it. Unsmart snake."

-Dr. Poll

So far, SCP-746-J has not exhibited any anomalous behavior apart from being a very pushable button. Due to this trait, SCP-746-J is not to be interacted with or pressed under any circumstances due to the unknown abilities SCP-746-J may exhibit once it is pushed.

"There's no telling whether or not the button will do something tragic upon interaction. However, the fact that people want to push it as well as its color is far too much of a coincidence to me. Therefore, I declare there is a very high chance this correctly classed button will destroy the world anytime after the initial interaction."

-Dr. Balk

Any and all buttons, portable or installed, are prohibited from Site-█ at all times due to the possibility the button may remotely connect to the others via anomalous means, and exert an output once any are pushed.

Addendum:

Date: January 12th, 2010
Events: SCP-746-J seems to lull those around it into a state where they think pushing the button is acceptable. This is approximately the date the SCP was discovered.
Notes:

"The red button in Sector A██ seems to be very large and obstructive in the work flow of Foundation personnel due to its color and size, therefore I suggest we remove it."

Date: February 3rd, 2010
Events: SCP-746-J is observed to have anomalous behavior including an active cognitohazard to the surrounding personnel.
Notes:

"That b-b-buhtton down there is… possessed… it's an SCP!

-D-9375

Date: February 5th, 2010
Events: A glass box is constructed to prevent personnel from pushing SCP-746-J.
Notes:

"We can't take any chances. It's a red button that people want to push. How the hell did it get there, anyway? What was there before? Either way, the glass will protect it. Nobody will see it there, and it's basically indestructible, so it's the best of both worlds."

-Dr. Poll

Date: March 7th, 2010
Events: D-5457 pushes the button during a minor containment breach.2
Notes:

"Stinking poop, we're fricked now. That button's probably a doomsday device. Even if it takes two years to activate. I mean it's a red button. Red buttons have GOT to be conspiring against humanity. It even says something that resembles "EMERGENCY", as if to taunt us. You absolute piss-wank."

-Dr. Poll

Events: Dr. Vector pushes the button due to an natural anomalously triggered impulse while testing the durability of a Nokia mobile phone.
Notes:

"The buttons been pressed. We're doomed now. The buttons never been pushed, so we don't know what it'll do. I'll give it a year before we've all dropped dead. And feed SCP-███, for God's sake. Damn pigeon's gonna construct a deadly superweapon if it doesn't get its fruit loops."

-Dr. Poll

Date: October 22nd, 2018
Events: Major containment breach. Multiple Keter and Euclid level SCPs had breached containment. Two security guards were stationed next to SCP-746-J to prevent any trespassers from pushing it. The emergency distress button was nowhere to be found, resulting in ██ casualties. The two guards effectively dispatched 7 unwanted visitors heading towards SCP-746-J during the breach. An emergency response unit arrived two hours later, giving all escaped SCPs a chance to flee the scene before a Mobile Task Force unit arrived.
Notes:

"Someone pushed that fff- damn button, didn't they? Gosh dang it, I knew that it was evil. These stupid people and their stupid buttons. If I had to guess, I'd blame the- (heavy feedback from the microphone) -and their giant wall. There's a reason we've never pushed it before, and this is why. Tragedies like this happen. Also, what the ffff-rick happened to the emergency distress button? I could've sworn it was in that hallway next to SCP-746-J. Pretty sure it was red, too. So SCP-746-J caused a containment breach and consumed the emergency button. What else do I have to tell ya, huh? How many more of you think I'm crazy, nutjobs?!"
