While the exact conversation changes, scp 4XXX usually makes the conversation revolved around what the human would want in life. After finding out it out, scp 4XXX will ask the person what they would be willing trade to get what they want. He then suggests their soul. If the person accepts the deal, scp 4XXX-2 will shake that hand of the person he was making a deal with. After he does that he will leave, walking away into the darkness. Attempts at following him have only resulted in scp 4XXX-2 continuing to be walking until whoever is following him stops.
