Per the greenlighting policy, first-time authors must get concepts reviewed in the Ideas Critique Forum or IRC chatrooms before creating a feedback thread in the Drafts and Critique forum. Draft critique can still be sought via IRC and PM without greenlights.

When you have a draft that you know for sure the audience will like, bring it to Drafts Critique Forum. Please note that the forums move much slower than the chat, and the draft forum moves slower than the ideas forum!

The mainsite-run IRC chatrooms are the most reliable source of real-time critique discussion.

SCP-XXXX - Dave

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures:

SCP-XXXX is to be kept within special containment storage 7 at site-XX. SCP-XXXX is not to be moved off site without clearance from level 4 personnel or above. Special clearance can be granted by level 3 security personnel as long as special containment unit is brought alongside SCP-XXXX.

Containment unit is a standard steel-box with a neurological inhibitor module built in. Off-site transfer requires sufficient power to block incoming mind-afflicting anomalies, for the safety of espers beyond XXX.

Testing on SCP-xxxx can be permitted with a level 3 clearance or above, while cross anomality testing requires a level 5 or above.

As a security measure, SCP-XXXX can be deployed in cases of confirmed mind-afflicting security risks, in accordance with containment procedures.

Description:

SCP-XXXX also know as "Dave" appears as a medium sized rock, approximately 7 centimetres wide and 8 centimetres tall. The anomality is roughly 3 centimetres deep, and weighs 0.7 kilos. SCP-XXXX appears as a rock, with a smooth surface, painted over with pink, blue and white paint resembling a smile. On the backside of SCP-XXXX is written "this is dave, dave love you" lower cased, written in white paint with a small brush.

Although not physically living, the SCP does contain resemblances to human neurology, as observed in field experiments, and described in appendum-2.

SCP-XXXX appears to be a sentient rock suspended in one or multiple state(s) of constant pain. As of how it is possible, the researchers assigned to SCP-XXXX have deduced a possibility that the rock exists outside of our perceived reality in "multiple realities at once" as stated by Dr. Harland, current head of the XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXX ward on site-XX.

Any attempt of

It is not known how SCP-XXXX is able to achieve multiple states of being, with which to experience multitutes of severe pain, but as of the recent surge in inexpiable anomalies within the SCP foundation, researches have begun to spit-ball out of a lack in morale, see appendum 3-6.

SCP-XXXX was only discovered recently, after having been brought into the facility at site-XX. Described only as a "pet-rock", it was given to a staff personnel as a gift by said staff member's daughter. It is unclear whether SCP-XXXX had any effect on the child before entering the foundation's custody, but it is speculated that the appearance of SCP-XXXX is due to painting classes, rather than being a part of SCP-XXXX.

Nothing out of the ordinary, except for it's flashy appearance would have cause for alarm, if not for an accident regarding Dr. Willester, mentioned in Test-Log-03, after which all experimentation regarding projection, or reading of the human mind is to go through propper security clearance.
