Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Access to SCP-XXXX is restricted to staff with level 2 security clearance or higher. Individuals that will be present when any interaction with SCP-XXXX will occur must read document CRAXXXX1 unless an experiment would require said individuals be ignorant of SCP-XXXX's behaviors. A proximity of 1 meter to SCP-XXXX for longer than 5 minutes must be avoided unless 1 security personnel supplied with 1 gram cinnamon is present. In the occurrence of SCP-XXXX-E, security personnel are to offer their supply of cinnamon to SCP-XXXX followed by the the security personnel stating 1 option listed on SCP-XXXX-b and 1 option listed on SCP-XXXX-c.
Additional: Personnel interacting with SCP-XXXX are to completely avoid ingestion and contact with cinnamon for 30 hours before interaction.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a bipedal, slightly humanoid creature standing at 1.9 meters. SCP-XXXX shares a number of features with species from the genus Gekko, and its body is covered in a dense grey fur averaging 3 centimeters long. Although the fur appears mundane, any attempts to procure samples have resulted in failure and damage to tools.
SCP-XXXX-a is a small structure measuring 2 meters wide, 2 meters long, and 2.3 meters tall at its tallest point. The base of SCP-XXXX-a consists of a steel frame constructed similarly to a common shipping pallet. Attached to this frame, by means which are still undetermined, are 3 structures.
The first structure is a red and white counter which covers half of the area of the base. The top of the counter is furnished with what appears to be a glass jar labeled tips and a sloped display case. Both furnishings have been determined to be glass, but no method tested has proven capable of breaking them.
There are 5 6 containers visible in the display case. The containers measure 4 liters in volume each, and they each appear to be filled with a different flavor of dairy based ice cream. Each container bears a label. The flavors contained are labeled in English and read: Chocolate, Vanilla, Pistachio, Rocky Road, Big Pete's Mega Chunk, and cookie dough. All flavors have been tested for dangerous or anomalous chemicals and have come back negative.
Upon the front of the first structure are 2 signs, each measuring 75 centimeters wide and 40 centimeters tall. The first sign, now referred to as SCP-XXXX-b is a list of the 5 6 flavors seen inside SCP-XXXX-a. The second sign, now referred to as SCP-XXXX-c is a list of four items. Listed from top to bottom, they are: cone, soft serve, sundae, and banana split.
The second structure is a wooden shelf, 1.5 meters wide, secured opposite of the first structure. The shelf faces towards the first structure. Visible on the shelf are 13 ice cream cones, 1 bowl, and a single bunch of 12 bananas. Despite being easily counted, each of the items, including the single bowl, seem to be indefinitely present on the shelf no matter how many of these items an individuals pulls from the shelf. The source of these items is still unknown.
A vinyl sign mounted to the top of the shelf reads, "Big Pete's."
The third structure is a wooden hat rack mounted beside the shelf. Other than being seemingly unbreakable, there are no anomalous properties about it.
SCP-XXXX has performed actions which suggest sentience and possible sapience, including signs suggesting stress, addiction, and joy. SCP-XXXX has also showed signs that it understands small amounts of English all human languages, but it shows no use of language itself.
SCP-XXXX, from GMT 0 9am to 1pm and from 1:30pm to 5pm, wears a hat, bow tie, and shirt resembling those of ice cream and soda vendors of the 1950s. These will be referred to as SCP-XXXX-d. All attempts to date SCP-XXXX-d confirm its fabrication around 1951. Additionally, all tests done to determine any anomalous traits of SCP-XXXX-d have returned negative results. It is still unknown how SCP-XXXX came to possess SCP-XXXX-d.
When unused, SCP-XXXX-d is stored on SCP-XXXX-a's 'hat rack' by SCP-XXXX.
Behavior: While SCP-XXXX does not wear SCP-XXXX-d, it will stand beside the 'tip jar' on SCP-XXXX-a and wait. SCP-XXXX's pupils dilate an average of 300% more during this time. At the times of 8:30am. 1:15pm, and 5:30pm, a small brown dust (determined to be approximately 1 gram of cinnamon), will appear in the tip jar from an unknown source.
SCP-XXXX's reaction to this has been timed and ranges between 0.49 seconds and 0.83 seconds and consists of the rapid consumption of the cinnamon by the use of a large purple 'tongue.'
While SCP-XXXX wears SCP-XXXX-d, it will stand behind the display case of SCP-XXXX-a. During this time, any individual that approaches SCP-XXXX and states 1 option from SCP-XXXX-b followed by 1 option from SCP-XXXX-c will be served the flavor chosen from b in the manor chosen from c. During this serving, SCP-XXXX produces a metallic instrument consisting of a scoop and handle from a pocket in SCP-XXXX-d and uses it to collect the ice cream. How this scoop produces the 'soft serve' from the solid ice cream is still unknown. Additionally, the ice cream in SCP-XXXX-a never empties, even when 100 orders for the same flavor are placed in a 24 hour period.
SCP-XXXX-E: Nicknamed, 'tantrum,' the SCP-XXXX-E event has a number of determined causes and, possibly, some undetermined causes. When a tantrum event is triggered, SCP-XXXX will cease most movement and stand erect. A noise, described as a nasal whine, will begin to emanate from SCP-XXXX at a volume of 12 decibels and will increase to 90 decibels in the course of 90 seconds. During this time, SCP-XXXX's mouth will slowly open, and the muscles in its tongue will contract. 90 seconds after the tantrum triggering event, SCP-XXXX's tongue will extend to a maximum distance of 30 meters towards the individual which triggered the tantrum. The tongue during this extension travels 558m/s and has proven powerful enough to penetrate 200mm of steel. So far, tantrum events have resulted in ██ casualties.
If SCP-XXXX's tongue fully extends during a tantrum event but does not kill the triggering individual, SCP-XXXX will continue releasing the nasal whine at 90 decibels, and it's tongue will stay extended. Contact with the tongue at this point continues to prove fatal as it [REDACTED]. SCP-XXXX will remain in this state seemingly indefinitely.
The easiest way to prevent a tantrum event from reaching a dangerous state is to offer SCP-XXXX cinnamon (1 gram has proved sufficient in all tests). SCP-XXXX's will harmlessly collect the cinnamon, and SCP-XXXX will return to its state before the triggering event. It is recommended to then state an item from SCP-XXXX-b followed by an item from SCP-XXXX-c to prevent a relapse into a tantrum. There are -3- 4 current instances where a relapse has occurred.
The second easiest way to stop a tantrum is to allow SCP-XXXX to terminate the triggering individual.
Known triggers for SCP-XXXX-E include:
-Stating an item from SCP-XXXX-c followed by an item from SCP-XXXX-b
-Stating an item from either SCP-XXXX-b or SCP-XXXX-c without an item from the other.
-Stating two or more items from either SCP-XXXX-b or SCP-XXXX-c
-Attempting to 'order' when SCP-XXXX is not wearing SCP-XXXX-d
-Covering the tip jar on SCP-XXXX-a
-Attempting to prevent SCP-XXXX's access to a source of cinnamon in the tip jar or that it has been offered.
-Attempting to prevent SCP-XXXX from completing its serving of an order
-Attempting to fulfill an order yourself or attempting to 'help yourself'
-Attempting to harm SCP-XXXX
-Maintaining a proximity to SCP-XXXX of 1 meter or less for longer than 5 minutes (this doesn't include the time SCP-XXXX takes to serve)
-Claiming to be 'Big Pete'
