SCP-XXX-A and SCP-XXX-B

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX-A and SCP-XXX-B are stored together within a high-security anomalous object storage locker at Site-01. Testing of the objects has been discontinued.

Description: SCP-XXX is the designation given to a pair of small statuettes, similar in appearance and size and composed of inexpensive plastic. Both objects have been found via carbon-dating to be more than 40,000 years old.

SCP-XXX-A is a thin human-shaped statuette lacking any distinct arms or legs. Its shape is weathered and irregular, and seams separate its head, its torso, and its lower area. When handled with both hands by a human or otherwise sapient subject, the object induces hallucinations of false memories; such hallucinations range in length from several minutes to several hours, and are often reported to be indistinguishable from reality despite consisting of fantastical and unrealistic events. Subjects invariably report being children of various ages within these hallucinations.

SCP-XXX-B is a broad-shouldered, limbless human-shaped statuette. Though the rest of its body is heavily eroded and cracked, its face is distinctly preserved. Handling SCP-XXX-B with both hands instantaneously transports human or otherwise sapient subjects to a seemingly random location, which is invariably reported to be oddly familiar albeit "missing something." To date, none of these locations have been found to possess anomalous properties.

Shallow gouges with traces of ink within are present on the upper back areas of both SCP-XXX-A and SCP-XXX-B. These are believed to have at one point been inscriptions; however, years of weathering and erosion has rendered them unreadable.

Subject: D-607830

Description: Subject skipped down a street they recognized as being located in the city of their birth, humming and licking a large pink lollipop. A male child approached them and forcibly pushed them into the ditch at the side of the road; they and the lollipop became saturated in mud. The child pointed and laughed as subject sat in the ditch and wept; then, without warning, a speeding pink convertible appeared from behind subject and spun out of control, striking the child and causing his body to shatter. Subject climbed out of the ditch, found the child's arm on the ground, and began peeling its skin off in strips.

Subject: D-238591

Description: Subject walked through a desert carrying a large tuna fish in its arms, attempting to keep it alive by intermittently moistening its gills with water from a canteen. An oasis was visible in the distance. The fish twitched and shuddered at random intervals, and subject whispered words of encouragement whenever it did so; subject noted that the fish appeared to be staring into their eyes at all times.

After several minutes of walking, subject ran out of water and began quickening their pace. As they approached the oasis, they tripped, dropping the fish on the sand. Subject, now exhausted, used the last of their energy to pick up the fish and drop it into the water of the oasis; upon being submerged, the fish immediately died.

Subject: D-948573

Description: Subject was seated upon a couch beside another child, reported to be a childhood friend, playing a cooperative videogame with them. Upon completion of a level, subject's companion's character died. Subject subsequently glanced to their side to find the other child slumped and unresponsive; as they watched, the child's corpse rapidly decayed and mummified before crumbling into dust.

Subject proceeded to continue playing the videogame alone for three hours.

Subject: D-23143

Description: Subject recalled being a fetus within their mother's womb, moments before being born. They forcibly crawled through the birth canal and extricated themself from the uterus, then used their teeth to remove their umbilical cord. Upon their birth, subject found themself and their mother in the display case of a butcher shop.

Subject: D-511213

Description: Upon recovering from the hallucination, subject's account of their experience was unable to be parsed, resembling glossolalia to attending personnel. Subject was instructed to write a description of the hallucination on a provided notepad; upon doing so, the notepad and pencil disappeared, and subject became unable to recall what they had written.
