SCP-XXXX-A prior to containment
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: All physical documentation regarding SCP-XXXX should be written by hand. No printed documents or blank stationery is allowed within 15m of either object.
SCP-XXXX-A and SCP-XXXX-B are to be kept in individual safes, separated from each other by a minimum of 15m. SCP-XXXX-A is to be fitted with a miniature GPS tracker. Each SCP-XXXX-B instance is to be read once only, and should be destroyed following the initiation of a Hemsöka event.
The containment chamber should be kept at 22°C ±2°C, and 35-55% relative humidity in order to prevent the premature degradation of SCP-XXXX-B manifestations.
Description: SCP-XXXX-A is an ordinary [REDACTED] brand gel pen. Bringing SCP-XXXX-A within 10m of some forms of stationery and other documents will cause handwritten text to manifest on the page(s), which will now be referred to as SCP-XXXX-B. After a period of exactly 3 minutes and 24 seconds the manifesting text will completely cover the document, regardless of the available surface area. During this period, the individual holding SCP-XXXX-A will enter a fugue state, retaining no memories of the event. Text or images which existed on SCP-XXXX-B prior to SCP-XXXX-A activation will be overwritten in this process. Testing has revealed if more than 30% of the documents contents are handwritten1 it will be completely unaffected by SCP-XXXX-A.2
SCP-XXXX-B will describe certain traits, personality quirks, interests and dislikes of an acquaintance of the wielder of SCP-XXXX-A, often in excessive detail. SCP-XXXX-B manifestations do not show any anomalous effects until read by a male individual between the ages of 14 and 28. An individual meeting these criteria who reads SCP-XXXX-B will initiate a Hemsöka event, described below.
Preface: SCP-XXXX-B alpha refers to the reader of SCP-XXXX-B. SCP-XXXX-B omega refers to the individual described in SCP-XXXX-B.
Alternative Idea: alpha is still obsessed, omega is completely normal, alpha believes he is 'alpha' and that omega is reciprocating his advances. [DATA EXPUNGES] her, she gets pregnant, product of the pregnancy can be x y z or [DATA EXPUNGED]. SCP-XXXX-A will occaisionally teleport somewhere it is likely to be accidentally picked up. Change skip to keter because it'll be well dangerous and actively tries to escape containment?
Phase 1: Approximately 15 minutes after reading SCP-XXXX-B, SCP-XXXX-B alpha will exhibit enhanced empathy and charisma with members of the opposite sex. SCP-XXXX-B alpha will begin to move towards SCP-XXXX-B omega. If SCP-XXXX-B alpha does not reach SCP-XXXX-B omega within 72 hours the Hemsöka event will end prematurely.
Phase 2: Once SCP-XXXX-B alpha has a line-of-sight to SCP-XXXX-B omega they will become obsessed, stalking the subject constantly. They will eventually coerce some form of one-on-one, face-to-face interaction. SCP-XXXX-B omega will regard SCP-XXXX-B alpha as a romantic interest after the first face-to-face interaction between the pair. Stalking and face-to-face interaction continues for an unspecified amount of time before moving on to Phase 3.
Phase 3: The two entities will enter into a relationship with each other, which has been observed to occur anywhere from 47 to 209 days after the initiation of the Hemsöka event. SCP-XXXX-B alpha and SCP-XXXX-B omega will move to a secluded area and begin to copulate, resulting in a pregnancy 100% of the time.
Phase 4: After a standard 9 months of pregnancy, SCP-XXXX-B omega will give birth
SCP-XXXX-A, along with 37 instances of SCP-XXXX-B were originally recovered from a student house share in Bedfordshire, England. A string of sexual assaults which lead to anomalous pregnancies were linked back to James Wagner, a resident of the house. James was taken into foundation custody and questioned.
Two months later, an investigation was launched following the repeated manifestation of SCP-XXXX-B instances in the area. This investigation lead to the discovery of SCP-XXXX-A, sitting on top of a non-anomalous diary belonging to James Wagner.3

Object Test 44
Subject: D-24375
Procedure: D-24375 was instructed to write "Hello" on a blank A4 sheet
Results: SCP-XXXX-B displays basic information about SCP-XXXX-B omega, identified as his high-school partner. Information listed includes data regarding SCP-XXXX-B omega's favourite colour, top 5 favourite foods, all of her hobbies and her favourite activities.
Object Test 45
Subject: D-24375
Procedure: D-24375 was instructed to read A4 sheet from Object Test 44
Results: Initiation of Hemsöka Event. D-24375 becomes increasingly agitated and aggressive following repeated failed attempts to breach the testing cell. Subject attempts to plead with Foundation researchers, requesting to let him see SCP-XXXX-B omega. These pleas were denied, after which D-24375 resumed attempting to breach containment. D-24375 was subsequently terminated.
Object Test 49
Subject: D-54686
Procedure: D-54686 was instructed to write "Hello" on a copy of "1984" by George Orwell
Results: SCP-XXXX-B displays a short non-fiction work with a great amount of detail on SCP-XXXX-B omega. SCP-XXXX-B omega has been identified as Lindsay Warner, living in Sacramento, CA. The information provided is incredibly detailed, including how they will react to certain phrases, information, gifts and activities, as well as a vast amount of superfluous information.6
See Document 54686-MKL for a full transcript of the work produced.
Object Test 50
Subject: D-54686
Procedure: D-54686 was instructed to read the copy of "1984" from Object Test 49.
Results: Initiation of Hemsöka Event. Subject is amnestized and placed into society, unaware of SCP-XXXX-B omegas location.
SCP-XXXX-B alpha begins moving towards SCP-XXXX-B omega, reaching the entity after 78 hours. SCP-XXXX-B alpha then begins the 'stalking' phase.Subjects are monitored over a period 103 total days before a relationship between the pair is initiated. Both entities express happiness regarding the situation. D-54686 been recovered and interviewed.7
Object Test 51
- +
Subject: D-31864, D-54686
Procedure: D-31864 was instructed to read the copy of "1984" from Object Test 49. D-31864 and D-54686 are to be amnestized and placed into society, unaware of either SCP-XXXX-B omega or eachothers location.
Results: Initiation of Hemsöka Event, with some variation. Rather than attempt to seek out SCP-XXXX-B omega, both instances of SCP-XXXX-B alpha began moving in the direction of the other. FLESH THIS OUT LATER
Foreword: The following is a transcript of the interview conducted on 05/07/2018 between Dr Doodle and D-54686 following Hemsöka Event #13
<Begin Log, 15:04>
Dr. Quentin Mathews: Good afternoon D-54686. My name is Dr Mathews, and I'm going to be asking you a few questions about what happened during SCP-XXXX Object Test #50. First off, I'd like to ask you about your partner.
D-54686: Lindsay? What about her? Where is she!?
Dr. Mathews: She's fine, you don't need to worry about her well being. How do you know her?
D-54686: What does it matter to you? I've always known her.
Dr. Mathews: I'll ask again D-54686, how did you know her?
D-54686: I don't see why it matters, but okay. We grew up on the same street. She was a few years older than me. An absolute stunner, especially once she got a bit older if you know what I mean. Anyways, I was always too shy to try and speak to her. Used to just watch her playing with her friends out of my bedroom window. I remember finally mustering up the courage when I was about 14 and she looked at me with a face of pure disgust. Said I was a creep and a weirdo.
Dr. Mathews: Any idea why she'd make those comments?
D-54686: No idea. The stuff I did back then, I still do now, and she loves it.
Dr. Mathews: I see. Could you expand upon that further for me, please?
D-54686: What, the stuff I did to win her over? Well, there was the bedroom window thing, I used to follow her to school too. Sometimes I'd climb the tree by her house and try to get pictures, as cliche as that sounds. Learned her schedule too, so I could see as much of her as possible. A few other bits and pieces here and there, but I think you get the gist of it. Just the usual.
Dr. Mathews: And how long did this go on?D-54686: About four or five years. I never managed to get the courage to speak to her again after she rejected me though. Never really got over her. Used to check her Facebook all the time, just to see what she was up to, has she uploaded any new pics, that sort of thing.
Dr. Mathews: So you were effectively stalking this woman for most of her adolescence. I'm not surprised she rejected your advances after hearing that.
D-54686: Stalking!? No way Doc. I was devoted to one woman and one woman only. You can't tell me that's something ladies don't want! Especially since we're dating now. Are you trying to tell me she doesn't really want me?
Dr. Mathews: We are trying to investigate the extent of the effects of SCP-XXXX. Part of these effects include greatly increased charisma with members of the opposite sex. It's entirely possible that whilst affected you were charismatic enough to convince yourself and ████ that what you were doing was normal, and even attractive.
D-54686: Bastard.
Dr. Mathews: Let's move on. How did you almost immediately find her whereabouts, after having not spoken to her in the better part of a decade?
D-54686: What sort of a question is that?
Dr. Mathews: You had no way of knowing even which state she was living in, let alone the specific apartment. So how did you find her?
D-54686: She was right where she was supposed to be. Just like the paper told me. There's no more to it than that.
Dr. Mathews: The paper spoke to you?
D-54686: Christ you're slow. No, the writing on the paper. It was you that gave it to me in fact. Is this some sort of trick question?
Dr. Mathews: Every question I've asked you has had a purpose D-54686. To give you a solid answer, no. That wasn't a trick question. This concludes our interview for today.
D-54686: Well can I go see her now then?
Dr. Mathews: I'm afraid not. You are going to be placed in containment until we decide whether to move on with the experiment, at which point you will possibly be reunited for the purpose of further testing. I hope I have made myself clear to you.
D-54686 begins to become increasingly agitated and attempts to injure Dr Doodle. The subject is tranquillised and moved to humanoid containment.
<End Log, 15:32>
Closing Statement: This interview along with previous tests we have conducted leads me to believe the individual that SCP-XXXX-B references is always somebody the test subject has an unhealthy obsession over. It also appears individuals affected by SCP-XXXX-B retain the memory of reading the document, despite amnestics being effective at removing other memories. Further testing with subject D-54686 is required. Subject amnestization placed on hold.
The following is a document recovered from the late James Wagner's residence. Some pages are missing, and extraneous pages have been removed.
08/6/1996
Dear Diary,
Today's the day. I'm going to ask Stephanie out. I'm finally going to do it. Wish me luck!
…
Well, that didn't go to plan. Something about not even knowing who I am, let alone me knowing anything about her. Like you need to know all about someone before dating them! Is there something wrong with liking someone based on their looks alone?
She's just playing hard to get, the stuck up bitch. I can play her little games if she wants me to.
14/9/1996
Dear Diary,
I've spent the last few months learning as much as I can about Stephanie.8 I know what classes she attends, and I know what her favourite colour is. I've found out who her friends are, as well as the people she dislikes. I know when she sleeps, I know when she eats. I've been sending her some of my diary entries too, so she knows a little about me. Hopefully that's enough for her. She's still playing hard to get I think, because I haven't seen her around much since our last encounter.
It doesn't really matter anyway, I know where she lives. I've picked up some flowers and i'm about to head over and pop the question. Hopefully you do a better job of wishing me luck this time Mr. Diary, haha!
Signing off,
James
15/9/1996
Dear Diary,
She wasn't in. Which is strange, because I know her schedule. She should have been there.
I bet she's with that douche, Jeff. I've seen them talking, seen the way he makes her laugh. Why does this always happen to me? I'm a nice guy. I learnt everything about her for fucks sake, for her to just throw it back in my face like this!?
I guess I need to learn more of what she likes? Dating is too hard.
Until next time,
James
18/9/1996
Dear Diary, (why do I even write like this?)
Jake told me that Stephanie was in the hospital. That's why she wasn't home the other day. Some sort of flu? I bought her some chocolate, but she didn't seem happy to see me. I tried asking her out again a few times, you know just trying to convince her i'm a good guy, you know it's not like i'm going to rape her or anything. She started crying though, I guess because I wasn't there sooner? No wonder she didn't want me at the hospital, I was completely oblivious that she was sick. Who'd want somebody that unreliable?
She's never going to forgive me.
The phrase "I love James" repeats for 16 consecutive pages. There are then several entries consisting of scribbles and rambling, before returning to the prior format.
██/█/1997
Dear Diary,
How do I still not know enough about her!? It's all so pointless! I love her, and she won't even give me the time of day. Why doesn't she see how much I love her, how I could care for her and treat her right? I've spent the past year fawning and obsessing over her, and the excuse she gives is "You don't even know me." Every time. I KNOW FUCKING EVERYTHING ABOUT HER!! I've spent hundreds of hours with nobody but this fucking pen, writing down notes. Every little detail about her routine, and the things she likes, yet she still refuses me. What more is there for me to know about her!?
I'm done.
James
This is the last entry in the journal. The date of the entry coincides with James' suicide.
** Old Version Below **
Special Containment Procedures: All copies of SCP-XXXX are to be fitted with miniature GPS tags and kept in a standard bookcase located in containment chamber 2561 of Site-19. The bookcase should be checked once a week for any new SCP-XXXX entities. There are currently 37 copies of SCP-XXXX in containment. Any changes to this number should be reported to the Site-19 security directors. The containment chamber should be kept at 22°C ±2°C, and 35-55% relative humidity in order to prevent the premature degradation of SCP-XXXX entities. The chamber should be also outfitted with at least one Scranton Reality Anchor to mute the effects of SCP-XXXX.
No paper, books, or other stationary is allowed within 15m of SCP-XXXX without prior approval from a senior researcher.
Research of SCP-XXXX is restricted to Level 2 security cleared personnel, after having their request approved by two senior researchers with Level 3 or higher security clearance.
In the event of a containment breach, widespread deployment of SRA's and Class A amnestic aerosols is required in the affected areas. Foundation field agents are to be dispatched to track and recover any missing journals, along with locating and securing any new copies of SCP-XXXX in the immediate area.
Description SCP-XXXX is a collection of anomalous journals and diaries (37 as of █/█/2018). Originally recovered from a university dormitory in ████████, ████████████, England, following the disappearance of █████ ███████ in 1997.
A thorough material analysis shows SCP-XXXX instances are composed of printing paper, card and glue, showing no difference to the composition of an ordinary notebook. The anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX become apparent upon being opened by any sapient being. At first, pages within SCP-XXXX are completely blank. Shortly after being opened, text depicting the biography of a person known to the reader begins to fill the pages of SCP-XXXX in chronological order. The subject of these writings appears to be random. The source of this information is unknown, though Foundation researchers currently theorise that SCP-XXXX is an "Infoemetic".9 The reader has no control over whose life the journal describes, with the only observed constant being that the reader and subject are both aware of the others existence.1011Fill in placeholder after the main article is written. I can't think of a better way to write what i'm trying to convey, suggestions appreciated
Any books within a roughly 10m radius of SCP-XXXX-1 are liable to become further instances of SCP-XXXX. Copies of SCP-XXXX-1, currently designated SCP-XXXX-2 through -37 do not seem to share this ability. The chance of nearby books transforming increases at a linear rate, with a 100% transformation rate after a period of 24 hours. SCP-XXXX-1 is identifiable by its brightly coloured stripes and the signature of █████ ███████. SCP-XXXX-1 has so far proved extremely resilient to damage. SCP-XXXX-2 through -37 do not show the same resistance to being damaged, and can be destroyed without much trouble if necessary.
Discovered instances of SCP-XXXX consistently show accurate depictions of the subjects lives from their birth until the present day. Each "Chapter" in these accounts depicts a major life event. Chapters concerning the future prophesize major events in the subjects future, with blank pages lying in-between the chapter headings, which the reader may fill in freely. SCP-XXXX instances exhibit mild Reality Bending effects, forcing the subject of the writings to conform to the events added to the blank pages. These journals seem to exhibit some form of sentience, as they are able to interpret and influence events and outcomes as it deems fit. This has lead to some undesirable and unpredictable outcomes during testing. See Addendum-CheekyBook for details. Make sure to rename and link this
What if the book needs a (special) pen to create new instances/pages repel ordinary pens?
Addendum: [This will be fleshed out once i'm happy with the main article]
Test Log Ideas:
Testing relating to the future predictions
Testing relating to how the subject is chosen - Turns out the biography is written about who the reader is the most obsessed with
Testing log resulting in a breach.
Test log with missing students mother, still grieving to the point of obsessiveness, book writes about its own history and future which reveals that the students obsession became trapped in the book, which is how the anomalous properties originally manifested. Currently, i'm thinking the book is going to reveal progressively worse scenarios caused by other SCPs, end with [DATA EXPUNGED] or something to add to the mystery? <— I think this sounds lame as it's written but the idea is good in my head, suggestions appreciated
