Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept in a standard containment safe at Site-22 outside of scheduled uses. Any conversations with SCP-XXXX during uses are to be recorded, transcribed, and archived. In the event of SCP-XXXX breaching containment, a member of Site-22 staff is to retrieve it from the former location of Site-53.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a pair of size 10 (28.5 cm) black high top Converse brand shoes. Wearers of SCP-XXXX are able to communicate with it telepathically. Descriptions of SCP-XXXX’s voice vary between wearers. SCP-XXXX holds the ability to teleport as well, often doing so during extended periods without use. Following the events of the Site-53 incident, SCP-XXXX is also believed to be indestructible.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was discovered in Eau Claire Wisconsin after Madeline Brewer apologized to her pair of “talking shoes” in her suicide note. Agent Hoppkins, embedded in the local police force, transferred SCP-XXXX to Site-53 for further investigation, at which point SCP-XXXX’s anomlous properties were first discovered. It was originally left in a cointanment safe to wait further study after its first interview. Its ability to teleport was discovered when SCP-XXXX was found missing from it’s containment safe 9 days after its last use. SCP-XXXX was later recovered from Ms. Brewer’s former residence 3 days later.
Foreword: This interview was recorded shortly after SCP-XXXX was brought to Site 53 and the nature of it’s psychic communication abilities were discovered.
Interviewer: Dr. Thomas Clevinger
<Begin Log>
Dr. Clevinger: Good afternoon SCP-XXXX, my name is Dr. Clevinger. I’d like to ask you a few questions
SCP-XXXX: I’d be happy to answer some, and uh… Maddie normally calls me Chuck. Nice to meet ya doc.Dr. Clevinger: SCP-XXXX, do you know where you are?
SCP-XXXX: No, I can’t really see anything. No eyes and all. It’s pretty cold in here though, so I assume I’m not at Maddie’s place anymore.Dr. Clevinger: That is correct. How are you able to tell the temperature?
SCP-XXXX: Well same as you I suppose. I may not be able to see things, but I can still feel. You’re feet a bit wide by the way.
Dr. Clevinger: SCP-XXXX, are you aware of how you became sentient?
SCP-XXXX: Not a clue. But what’s with all these personal questions anyway? You haven’t even told me anything about you other than your name.
Dr. Clevinger:I’m afraid I can’t give any personal information at this time, and this interview is strictly exploratory.
SCP-XXXX: What do you mean exploratory. Am I some kind of test subject to you?
Dr. Clevinger: Well as a matter of fact yes. I think I should explain the situation.
SCP-XXXX: Yeah, I think you should.
(Dr. Clevinger proceeds to explain the purpose of the Foundation and SCP-XXXX’s containment)
SCP-XXXX: So, I’m some kind of lab rat for you locked away from the world because I’m a talking pair of shoes, huh.
Dr. Clevinger: Basically, yes.
SCP-XXXX: Well, I’ll still be talking to some people. Can I still talk to Maddie?
(pause)
Dr. Clevinger: I’m afraid not.
SCP-XXXX: Why not. She already knows about me. Or did you give her some kind of mind wipe amnesia thing.
Dr. Clevinger: Yes, um, something like that.
SCP-XXXX: Well I… I’ve got a lot to think about.
Dr. Clevinger: Yes, I suppose you do.
<End Log>
Afterword: SCP-XXXX appears to possess the ability to sense the temperature of its > environment. It is advised to withhold the nature of Madeline Brewer from it until the full extent of > its capabilities are known.
Foreword: SCP-XXXX was found to have breached containment in the 9 days since its last interview with Dr. Clevinger. This interview was conducted shortly after its recovery from Madeline Brewer’s former residence.
Interviewer: Dr. Thomas Clevinger
<Begin Log>
Dr. Clevinger: Hello again, SCP-XXXX.SCP-XXXX:Now what’s going on here? You leave me in some box for a week, so I go back to Maddie’s place, then she doesn’t even say hello, and you come pick me up again. What kind of mind wipe did you people give her?!
Dr. Clevinger: I’m… not authorized to tell you, SCP-XXXX.SCP-XXXX: Why? Because I’ll be mad?! Because I won’t cooperate with your questions or whatever if you tell me?! Well I’m not answering anything till you tell me!
Dr. Clevinger: (to the observation room)Should I tell him?Dr. Bryers: If you have to.
Dr. Clevinger: SCP-XXXX, Madeline was found dead 13 days ago. Her suicide note it was prompted us to discover you and bring you here.
(pause)
Dr. Clevinger: SCP-XXXX?
SCP-XXXX: I tried, I tried to get her to cheer up. Maybe talk to someone else. I told her I’d always be her friend, I-I just wanted to have a friend for once.
Dr. Clevinger: SCP-XXXX-
SCP-XXXX:Everyone else just thought I was some weird voice in their head, didn’t talk to me, threw me out, got rid of me. Maddie was the first one to say hello, the only one who listened….
(SCP-XXXX begins sobbing)
<End Log>
Afterword:SCP-XXXX seems to have suffered an extended period of isolation prior to containment. Psychological treatment is recommended at this time. A schedule for uses is also to be implemented in order to prevent SCP-XXXX from breaching containment.
Addendum-XXXX-1
SCP-XXXX seems to be recovering from it's past traumas through it's talks with Site-53 personnel and therapy sessions with Dr. Bell.

Afterword: SCP-XXXX will be receiving psychological therapy from Site 22 psychological staff.
Addendum-XXXX-3:
SCP-XXXX has begun teleporting exclusively to the former location of Site-53 during its breaches of containment, as well as within the previous 168 hour window. Increased frequency of uses and therapy sessions is recommended.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX must be cleaned a minimum of once every 2 weeks by janitorial staff. Use of SCP-XXXX is forbidden without express permission from Level 4 personnel. Use of SCP-XXXX with or without Level 4 approval will require psychological evaluations prior to exposure and may lead to site transfer1. Dr. Scot is to be given psychological evaluations at a minimum of once a week.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a section of wall, floor, ceiling, plumbing, and shower removed from an apartment in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. SCP-XXXX can operate without being connected to a water source via unknown means. When a conscious human uses SCP-XXXX, the person’s overall intelligence and mental capacity are heightened during and for a period after the use. Repeated use of SCP-XXXX also causes frequent migraines and a variety of mental health problems2. Repeated use of SCP-XXXX causes these effects to take longer to wear off, and eventually become permanent. Furthermore, preexisting mental conditions are worsened. Which ailments manifest change on a case by case basis, but normal treatment methods are always ineffective. It should also be noted that water from SCP-XXXX taken out of SCP-XXXX has no anomalous effects(see Addendum-3).
The two previous inhabitants of SCP-XXXX’s apartment, labeled SCP-XXXX-1 and SCP-XXXX-2, used SCP-XXXX on a daily basis for 5 months prior to its discovery. SCP-XXXX-1, is a 26 year old Caucasian male suffering from chronic fatigue, ADHD, bipolar and some minor demyelinating disease on retrieval. SCP-XXXX-2 was a 25 year old African-american male suffering from schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression on retrieval (see Addendum-2). Testing has shown them both to have heightened cognitive ability, memory, and mental function apart from the negative effects from use of SCP-XXXX.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was discovered on 23/8/18 by Agent Carter during a police investigation of potential securities fraud by SCP-XXXX-1 and SCP-XXXX-2. Interrogation of SCP-XXXX-1 and SCP-XXXX-2 in the aforementioned investigation revealed the nature of SCP-XXXX and its effects, and both SCP-XXXX as well as SCP-XXXX-1 and SCP-XXXX-2 were taken into Foundation custody at Site-24.
Interviewee: SCP-XXXX-1
Interviewer: Dr. Burns
Foreword: After being taken into Foundation custody at Site 24, SCP-XXXX-1 was interviewed about the origin of its conditions (24/8/18).
[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. Burns: SCP-XXXX-1, would you please state your name.
SCP-XXXX-1: Dr. Burns, if would be nice if you called me James.
Dr. Burns: Last name please.
SCP-XXXX-1: Scot.
Dr. Burns: Do you understand why you have been brought here SCP-XXXX-1?
SCP-XXXX-1: Of course. My shower gave my roommate and I super intelligence, and this is an organization that deals with anomalies of this sort. That makes us one of your objects, your ‘special containment procedures’, doesn’t it.
Dr. Burns: How did you know what special containment procedures were?
SCP-XXXX-1: Well, it’s not too hard to figure out after you called me SCP-XXXX-1 over and over. There are only so many words that can fit those letters Theodore.
Dr. Burns: Now how do you know my name?
SCP-XXXX-1: I’m one of your objects, Dr. Theodore Alexander Burns, with hyper intelligence and ADHD. I have to do something to keep myself from getting too bored.
Dr. Burns: Alright, let’s… move on for now. How did you first encounter SCP-XXXX?
SCP-XXXX-1: Ryan ,well you call him SCP-XXXX-2, and I were looking for an apartment. We’ve been friends since college, and we were trying to get things together. The building was pretty new, but someone had lived in our apartment before us. The landlord said the previous tenant had ran off without a trace, but we didn’t pay attention to that at the time. After that AH… AHH!
*subject begins hunching over, grasping his head*
Dr. Burns: SCP-XXXX-1, are you all right?
SCP-XXXX-1: It’s… migraines… started… two months ago…oww! Can we… be done for now.
[END LOG]
Closing Statement: SCP-XXXX-1 was taken to the medical wing. He was observed to have an extreme migraine for 6 hours. Also, SCP-XXXX-1 mentioned the possibility of an SCP-XXXX-3. An investigation to find this individual has begun. Also, I would prefer not to interview SCP-XXXX-1 in the future. He is quite unsettling when he is not having migraines, to say the least. -Dr. Burns
Interviewee: SCP-XXXX-2
Interview: Dr. Burns
Foreword: After being taken into Foundation custody at Site 24, SCP-XXXX-2 was interviewed about the origin of its conditions (24/8/18).
[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. Burns: SCP-XXXX-2, would you please state your name.
SCP-XXXX-2: Ryan… Hoffman *subject is looking around the room as if alerted*
Dr. Burns: Are you all right, you seem distressed?
SCP-XXXX-2: Can you hear them?
Dr. Burns: Hear who?
SCP-XXXX-2: Them, everywhere. So many voices, yet so alone.
Dr. Burns: The subject seems to be delusional, I don’t think we’re going to get anywhere with this
[END LOG]
Closing Statement: Further interviews with SCP-XXXX-2 have been postponed until his conditions caused by SCP-XXXX can be treated properly. -Dr. Burns
Addendum-1: SCP-XXXX's cognitive boosting abilities have potential usefulness to Foundation research. Due to this, research to develop an effective treatment for SCP-XXXX's negative effects had begun. (2/10/18)
Addendum-2: Research on a treatment for SCP-XXXX's negative effects have been been fruitless. Also, SCP-XXXX-2 was found dead in his chamber, having hung himself with his bedding. SCP-XXXX-1 has not shown any signs of suicidal thoughts or tendencies, but is now scheduled to have psychological evaluations at least once a week. (29/10/18)
Interviewee: SCP-XXXX-1
Interview: Dr. Burns
Foreword: After SCP-XXXX-2 suicide, SCP-XXXX-1 was given a psychological evaluation that are to become regular.
[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. Owens:SCP-XXXX-1, how are you feeling?
*subject stays silent*
Dr. Owens:SCP-XXXX-1?
SCP-XXXX-1:How do you think I am. One of my best friends is dead and it's my fault. Why did I have to choose that apartment.
*subject begins crying*
Dr. Owens:Are you alright?
SCP-XXXX-1:Obviously not. Could you just… leave me alone
Dr. Owens:James, grief isn't easy. But I can't help you if you don't talk to me.
SCP-XXXX-1:Sorry, Alright. But do you have to record these?
Dr. Owens:No. (Aside)Yes Clark I know, just stop recording.
[END LOG]
Closing Statement:As hoped, there is no evidence that James(SCP-XXXX-1) is experiencing suicidal tendencies. Also, treating less like a lab rat can only help his recovery. -Dr. Owens
Addendum-3: Due to the fact that water removed from SCP-XXXX's physical location has no anomalous properties, it is now being used as a main water source for Site-24 when tests pertaining to it are not being conducted. (24/11/18)
Addendum-4: An effective medication for SCP-XXXX’s effects has been found. The medication has been labeled med-XXXX. SCP-XXXX-1's regular use of med-XXXX has shown remarkable results. Further research on med-XXXX's effectiveness on other subjects is being initiated. (22/12/18)
Addendum-5: Due to useful nature of SCP-XXXX-1's now unhindered intellect and his interest in Foundation research, he is being given level 2 clearance as a researcher at Site-24 and will now be referred to as Dr. Scot. (3/1/19)
Addendum-6: Further tests of med-XXXX on subjects other than Dr. Scot shown it to be completely ineffective on other cases. This has led to the theory that treatments for SCP-XXXX's anomalous effects would require case by case creation. Due to the amount of time and resources this would take, further research into treatments have been stopped, and D-class test subjects for the research have been transferred to other projects. (27/1/18)
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-3572 is to be kept in a pad locked standard safe containment locker at Site-12. There should only be one key to this locker, and it is to be held by Site-12’s site manager. SCP-3572 is only to be accessed for testing purposes with approval by level 4 personnel. Unauthorized use of SCP-3572 can result in transfer, stripping of clearance and possible termination. (see Addendum 3572-4).
Description: SCP-3572 is a stone jug resembling that of those used by moonshiners during the prohibition. SCP-3572 itself does not possess any anomalous properties other than its ability to reassemble itself from any level of destruction (including, but not limited to being cracked, shattered, ground to a powder, and incineration) in a period of time ranging from 1 to 10 minutes.
SCP-3572’s other anomalous properties come from the substances that it creates when it receives a “request”. A “request” occurs when a consumable liquid is named by a human within 7 meters of SCP-3572. Liquids “requested” from SCP-3572 have also been shown to have higher concentrations of components the liquid is associated with by the requester, such as higher concentrations of alcohol in alcoholic drinks or calcium in milk. Most notably, SCP-3572 has also been able to create anomalous substances, such as SCP-2107 and SCP-207, which have shown to have the same but more potent effects than their original counterparts (see SCP-3572 Test Log and Addendum 3572-4).
Test 1:
Request- One shot of vodka
Result- SCP-3572 created roughly 42 ml of liquid with the chemical makeup of vodka except with a 25% higher alcohol content. No anomalous effects on consumption.
Test 2:
Request- Alcohol
Result- SCP-3572 created roughly 9 liters of a substance composed of 125% pure alcohol. How SCP-3572 is able to do this is still unknown. Substance was not consumed.
Test 3:
Request- Gold
Result- SCP-3572 did not react.
Test 4:
Request- Mercury
Result- SCP-3572 did not react
Test 5:
Request- A Fruit Smoothie
Result- SCP-3572 created enough of fruit smoothie to fill the testing glass present in the chamber. Later chemical analysis of the substance showed to be rich in some nutrients such as vitamin A and C. No anomalous effects on consumption.
Test 6:
Request- Cow Milk
Result- SCP-3572 created roughly 9 liters of unprocessed dairy-cow milk. Chemical analysis showed higher than average concentrations of calcium and vitamin D present in the milk. No anomalous effects on consumption.
Test 7:
Request- Blood
Result- SCP-3572 created roughly 9 liters of red liquid, with later chemical analysis finding it to be Type O+ human blood with complete lack of iron content and indiscernible origin of its genetic material.
Test 8:
Request- SCP-2107
Result- SCP-3572 created 9 liters of a carbonated liquid resembling SCP-2107. Test subject was then instructed to drink one glass of the liquid. 5 minutes after consumption, test subject reported seeing “spectral figures” floating around the room. This continued for a duration 5 hours and 14 minutes, after which the subject reported the disappearance of all figures. This duration was longer than stated in earlier testing of SCP-2107, and was stored for further testing. Further testing of SCP-3572 is also pending necessary level 4 approval (see Addendum 3572-4).
Addendum 3572-1: SCP-3572 origins have not been uncovered, though it is theorized to have originated during or shortly after the american prohibition in ███████, Tennessee. SCP-3572’s previous owner, Mr.██████ Fieldman, was unable to recall SCP-3572’s origins or how it worked. Mr.██████ Fieldman was released and given class B amnestics.
-Dr. Osborn 14/4/1995
Addendum 3572-2: Due to research on SCP-3572 finding that it does not have any anomalous effects on consumption, it is now available for use to all Site-12 staff in the staff breakroom liquor cabinet.
-Dr. Osborn 14/9/1995
Addendum 3572-3: After Event-[REDACTED] at Site-12 where mass amounts of alcohol consumption by staff resulted in a containment breach of SCP-████ and SCP-███, SCP-3572 is no longer to be kept in the Site-12 staff breakroom.
Really guys, I thought you would have known better than this.
-Dr. Osborn 29/12/1995
Addendum 3572-4: After the results of Test 8 and the creation of large amounts of SCP-207 by Researcher██████ and Dr.███████ , SCP-3572 is to be kept in a locked safe and only to be used for testing purposes with level 4 approval. Unauthorized use of SCP-3572 will result in transfer from Site-12 and possible stripping of clearance levels.
What the hell were you thinking ██████. Have fun at [REDACTED].
-Dr. Osborn 7/2/1996
