Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept in a locked and labeled Safe level storage unit. Access is restricted to personnel with Level 2 security clearance and above, and only under direct supervision.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a sheet of standard, white, college ruled notebook paper, with ring bindings still attached. Written across the header space of the front side of the paper are the words 'Forget Me Not', written in block lettering with permanent marker. The rest of the page is divided in half down the center with a single line. The sheet of paper is near identical on the reverse side, only with 'Forget Me' written on the margin.

The anomalous effects of SCP-XXXX occur only when a subject writes upon the sheet of paper. Regardless of language, anything written upon the side labeled "Forget Me Not" is permanently engrained into the writer's mind, even after administration of amnestics. The opposite is true of the reverse side, removing the written information from the writer's mind permanently. Attempts to remember/relearn written information after the fact are met with the writer being mentally incapable of understanding the information.

The capability of SCP-XXXX to embed information into a writer's mind appears to be directly related to the wording of what is written and what the writer intends to remember. Ranging from simple phrases to entire subject matters, the only limitation of it's abilities is that the desired information must be common knowledge, and must be written information. Drawing pictures of objects has no effect.

Information desired to be remembered does not need to be known prior to writing, allowing the potential for SCP-XXXX to be used to learn entire subject matters permanently with no prior training or experience.

Any information written upon SCP-XXXX will be erased after 5 minutes of inactivity, regardless of the fluid it is written in.
