SCP Document Status: Requires polishing.
An instance of SCP-XXXX-1, placed upon a wooden table.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-XXXX should be kept in a small storage warehouse within Site-██. SCP-XXXX instances in Foundation custody must be suspended from the ceiling of a storage room by an elastic rope, measuring no less than 0.2 m, which must be checked for deformations daily and replaced when appropriate. SCP-XXXX instances must be suspended at least fifteen (15) cm above the ground to minimize the risk of containment failures.
Walls inside of the containment cell must be painted with black paint, capable of absorbing at least 90% of light. Only low-light LEDs are permitted in the cell for the duration of rope maintenance. The containment cell should not be located near any live wires, and no electronics are permitted within at least a 20 m radius from the centre of the cell. The cell must also be padded with sound-insulating material.
SCP-XXXX shall be only placed on any solid surface for testing purposes approved by Level 5/XXXX clearance personnel. Otherwise, SCP-XXXX-1 should under no circumstances make contact with the floor, and failure to do so could cause an XK-Class end-of-the-world scenario.
If any medium-scale SCP-XXXX incident occurs, Mobile Task Force Omnicron-14 ("Moon Mist") must be dispatched to recontain SCP-XXXX and restore the area to structural integrity. Any spilled SCP-XXXX-1 must be lifted and turned upright, and the cap must be re-sealed. The remaining SCP-XXXX liquid (designated SCP-XXXX-2) will seemingly evaporate, despite the varied boiling points in its ingredients. Any solid remains of SCP-XXXX-2 are deemed non-anomalous and must be disposed of in an appropriate manner by janitorial staff.
A functioning seismograph must be fitted in a nearby room in case of any incidents involving SCP-XXXX-1. If the Richter scale reading is less than 4 during an incident, ο-14 does not have to be dispatched, and instead, SCP-XXXX can be stabilized by the nearest personnel. Readings over 4 but under 6.1 must include ο-14's involvement in recontainment. Complete evacuation of all staff, equipment and anomalies of the site is required if these readings excel 6.1.
Description:
SCP-XXXX is a collective term for batches of 24 oz black cherry flavored Faygo brand drinks, designated SCP-XXXX-1 when referred to individually. Visually, they are not distinguishable from non-anomalous bottles, but exhibit anomalous properties when placed on a surface for longer than four (4) seconds. When the bottom of SCP-XXXX-1 makes contact with a solid surface for longer than the designated time, SCP-XXXX-1 will begin releasing energy, causing the contacted object and nearby surroundings to vibrate at seemingly random magnitudes on the Richter scale.
Energy from SCP-XXXX is released on an atomic level, exerting kinetic energy on any object that it is placed on. This leads to the vibration of particles and eventual change of state of the object. It is speculated that SCP-XXXX obeys the laws of energy conservation, as it draws energy from nearby surroundings, and then converts it to kinetic energy when it exhibits its anomalous effects. The longer SCP-XXXX-1 is placed upon a surface, more of this energy is seemingly created or converted from ambient energy sources. It takes SCP-XXXX-1 two (2) minutes to begin changing the atomic state of the surface it is placed on.
Incident-XXXX-1: During Incident-XXXX-1, an SCP-XXXX-1 instance was unintentionally spilled onto the floor by Junior Researcher M█████. Liquid from SCP-XXXX-1 began pouring endlessly until Junior Researcher M█████ lifted the bottle from the ground and resealed it. Despite this, SCP-XXXX-1 still appeared to be full. The fluid previously spilled from SCP-XXXX-1 dissipated. This evaporation is speculated to be caused by SCP-XXXX-1's anomalous ability to store energy.
During this incident, only the side of the SCP-XXXX-1 bottle made contact with the floor, which caused vibrations at much lower magnitudes compared to upright placement of SCP-XXXX-1. Regardless, SCP-XXXX must still be contained according to its containment procedures. Keeping SCP-XXXX-1 on its side is not an alternative method of SCP-XXXX containment in any way.
Addendum: An attempt to contain SCP-XXXX in liquid as an alternative to suspension by rope was made. SCP-XXXX-1 appears to sink to the bottom of the tank in every fluid, despite being only 24 oz (approximately 0.68 kg), even when weighed. When SCP-XXXX-1 was placed in denser liquids such as mercury (Hg), SCP-XXXX-1 still floated, and the whole tank appeared to vibrate. Suspense of SCP-XXXX by a rope appears to be the most effective containment procedure to prevent the anomalous vibrations of SCP-XXXX.
Test XXXX-A - ██/██/20██:
Subject: SCP-XXXX-1 was tested for any noticeable effects after ingestion of SCP-XXXX-2.
Procedure: The contents of SCP-XXXX-1 were poured into a cup. D-8762 was instructed to drink from the cup and report unusual occurrences.
Results: [DATA EXPUNGED]
Analysis: Ingestion of SCP-XXXX-2 is strictly prohibited. Not because it's good, and we're blocking you from the heavenly taste of Faygo - it's because you will die a gruesome death, and no one wants that, right? -Researcher ███████
SCP Document Status: Sucks. Please: if you've found this, don't read it.
WARNING: THE FOLLOWING FILE IS LEVEL 3/XXXX CLASSIFIED
ANY ATTEMPT TO ACCESS THIS FILE WITHOUT LEVEL 3/XXXX AUTHORIZATION WILL BE LOGGED AND WILL LEAD TO IMMEDIATE DISCIPLINARY ACTION.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: Any individuals claiming to have experienced or witnessed SCP-XXXX are to be investigated by Mobile Task Force Eta-38 (“You With The Snake Eyes”). All public reports of SCP-XXXX must be covered in a discrediting campaign carried out by η-38. If occurrences have been confirmed, Class-B amnestics must be administered. Affected individuals are hereafter referred to as SCP-XXXX, followed by the number of their chronological identification.
If a subject has experienced SCP-XXXX for longer than exactly five (5) days, they are considered to have reached the second stage of SCP-XXXX. In Stage 2 individuals, registering amnestics will be ineffective, and will not prevent, cure or sedate SCP-XXXX. Text messages sent by these individuals should be automatically filtered by Foundation algorithms and removed to prevent widespread public knowledge of the SCP-XXXX phenomenon. Alternatively, these individuals may be euthanized if such action is deemed appropriate and necessary, with approval of the Ethics Committee.
Personnel interacting with SCP-XXXX-1 through to -23 should refrain from prompting description of SCP-XXXX instances to avoid the risk of infection. Personnel should only attempt to communicate with identified subjects through text or written accounts. There will be a notable lack of cooperation from Stage 2 individuals due to SCP-XXXX's effects on their mental state and inability to recall the past.
Description: SCP-XXXX has been described to resemble a Chinese dragon dance costume head made of papier-mâché, with two large, flat wings protruding from either side. It is covered in intricate patterns, and said to be diverse in coloration.
To an infected individual, SCP-XXXX instantaneously materializes in the center of every wall and door in an individual's sight, emitting a chord sound (see Addendum XXXX-A), and then disappears within a second in approximately 0.5 to 1.25 seconds. The entity appears at random intervals of time, usually when it is least expected, and 'jump-scares' the subject. Affected individuals have been noted to express constant anxiety, paranoia or hyper-awareness in attempt to counter SCP-XXXX, with all attempts proven to be to no avail.
SCP-XXXX seems to manifest randomly in usually unrelated individuals and spreads to others when the affected individual mentions and/or describes SCP-XXXX vocally, both in person and through calls. Other individuals do not experience SCP-XXXX if it has been mentioned through other media.
Stage 2 subjects appear to speak incomprehensibly or nonsensically when describing SCP-XXXX to others - this also affects text and handwriting, however, this reaction is natural and not anomalous. Stage 2 individuals reportedly have not been able to remember their own identities, which is most likely a result of serious traumatic stress caused by SCP-XXXX.
It was at one point theorised that SCP-XXXX takes roots in the cerebrum, but MRI scans indicate that there is no difference between an affected individual and a non-affected individual's brain. Bodies of SCP-XXXX infected individuals exhibit non-anomalous production of adrenaline and other stimulating hormones.
Addendum XXXX-A: A recent discovery regarding SCP-XXXX confirms that the sound emitted by SCP-XXXX during its materializations can be faintly heard during calls made by subjects affected by SCP-XXXX, when the volume of the call is boosted to [REDACTED] decibels. This sound has never been noticed by anyone related to these individuals, as standard device volumes cannot reach [REDACTED] db. This sound is much louder for the subjects themselves, previously compared to the sound of a horn of an incoming train. When experiments with various train horns were conducted, it has been concluded that SCP-XXXX's sound is indistinguishable from a K5LA train horn.
Addendum XXXX-B: The first instance of SCP-XXXX was recorded in ██/██/2012, when individuals online reported that they experienced the phenomenon. It became a short-lived discussion on the social platform Reddit. The post was permanently removed, and any further references to SCP-XXXX were excused as a hoax and the mentioned post was dismissed as attention-bait. Due to the relatively small size of the forum the discussion took place on, the SCP-XXXX reports did not go viral.
From the discussion, thirteen (13) of the twenty-three (23) current subjects have been identified. The subjects were found to be located mostly in Houston, Texas, but some have also been identified in other places around the globe. Their experience of SCP-XXXX is presumed to be caused by several communications between the infected subjects and their relatives, residing abroad.
SCP-XXXX infected individuals are still sought out, as SCP-XXXX numbers appeared to increase since ██/██/2016. According to gathered data, it has been speculated that SCP-XXXX may have affected a total of 1██ people, however, their identities have not yet been found.
SCP Document Status: I don't even know at this point.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe-Paraxenos
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX instances should be stored inside Weapons Locker 5-E on Site ██. SCP-XXXX is only permitted for tests approved by Level-4/XXXX personnel. Due to the effects of SCP-XXXX and its potential misuse by D-Class personnel, on-site task force members should handle SCP-XXXX in tests instead. Trained handling of SCP-XXXX is to prevent potential casualties and any harm to its user.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a series of fifteen (15) identical pale-grey coloured foam swords at 0.5m in length (also known as boffers, and typically used for live action roleplaying) respectfully classified as SCP-XXXX-1 to SCP-XXXX-15. SCP-XXXX possess metal buttons within fingers' reach located on the hilt, which do not have any effect consequent to pressing unless certain circumstances are met.
When an SCP-XXXX holder, designated SCP-XXXX-A, holds SCP-XXXX by the hilt in their dominant hand while listening to music on a head-worn audio device of any kind, SCP-XXXX will drastically change in composition and appearance seemingly to match the music listened to by SCP-XXXX-A.
This effect lasts for the entire duration of the music played through the headset, or until the headset is removed. Damage dealt to SCP-XXXX during this time immediately causes SCP-XXXX to revert to its previous state, however, with notable structural damage. The only instances of SCP-XXXX damaged permanently during testing include SCP-XXXX-1, -2, -3 and -4. Any attempts to repair SCP-XXXX has been proven to no avail.
During the time after the transfiguration of SCP-XXXX, if the button on SCP-XXXX's hilt is pressed, the sword will generate a unique effect, often referred colloquially to as the "special move" by SCP-XXXX's research team. This effect is also suited to the music listened to by SCP-XXXX-A, and often has similar properties linking with SCP-XXXX's design.

When the button was pressed, SCP-XXXX-4 was able to turn to itself in various degrees of wear and damage. Notably, the sword's blade was only half-present, as if it had been shattered in half, in half of the noted instances. Turning off the music at this point resulted in an SCP-XXXX-4 with half a blade. The music was turned back on for SCP-XXXX-4 to cycle to its apparent newly-forged form as a means of repair, however, SCP-XXXX-4 was unable to exhibit its anomalous properties and was pronounced neutralised. Note: Despite SCP-XXXX-4 being damaged, it did not revert to its previous state until the headset was removed. No further tests with the goal of having a damaged SCP-XXXX not turn back into its default state will be held in the future, because it's just too much of a risk wasting these SCP-XXXX instances. -Researcher North |

SCP-XXXX-5 |
Researcher Kruk |
Pumped Out Kicks by Foster The People |
A fully loaded, mint-condition AR-15. |
SCP-XXXX-5 had a trigger instead of a button. SCP-XXXX-5 functioned as a normal AR-15 would work. Note: This is the first time SCP-XXXX was seen transforming into a weapon that isn't a sword or melee weapon. Further testing is required to confirm that SCP-XXXX-5's transfiguration into an AR-15 isn't just a rare exception. -Researcher Kruk |
Note: Further tests related to the transfiguration of SCP-XXXX instances have been suspended indefinitely by the O5 Council. They don't really add anything to our knowledge on this anomaly, and are usually just used for the sake of bringing pop-culture weapons to reality. Anyone found to conduct such tests without proper reasoning will be seriously reprimanded. - Researcher █████
