SCP-XXXX, currently self-containing.

Special Containment Procedures: Due to the large number of SCP-XXXX instances distributed worldwide and the very nature of the anomaly, it is currently impossible to contain SCP-XXXX. Following extensive research into subjects exposed to SCP-XXXX and the constant and continuous monitoring of an SCP-XXXX instance, SCP-XXXX has been deemed safe to remain self-containing as it poses no threat and greatly improves the mental state and morale of any subject who interacts with it.

Foundation webcrawlers are to routinely search any online forums and message boards for any mentions of SCP-XXXX and they are to be analysed to better ascertain the nature of their distribution and further pinpoint the location of SCP-XXXX for further analysis. Tracker chips are to be shipped out to all international branches of Site-85 and sites to be further redistributed to all known subjects of SCP-XXXX. All sites are to then further monitor their respective countries' discovered instances. Any reports of SCP-XXXX manifestations that are captured by security camera feeds, photographs or alike are to be investigated, and all footage relating to SCP-XXXX such as news reports, videos or similar are to be confiscated or taken down. Should an SCP-XXXX instance manifest in public, MTF-Tau-87 ("Worldwide Hugs") are to be dispatched and all secondhand witnesses among civilian populace are to be traced down and amnesticized.

Should any instances of SCP-XXXX manifest to any foundation personnel, they are to report to their site's respective containment specialists for specific containment procedures. A list of specialised containment procedures for all instances of SCP-XXXX belonging to foundation personnel can be accessed below:

Description: SCP-XXXX is a toy that manifests approximately an hour after one's expiration, often to the deceased's closest family members and friends. It has no fixed appearance but generally appears as a stuffed animal or doll, generally taking the form of the deceased's toy from their adolescence. Testing confirms that SCP-XXXX’s composition and physical appearance are non-discernible from similar non-sapient toys.

SCP-XXXX exhibits signs of sapience, is able to move on its’ own accord and communicate via a range of gestures or writing. It has been observed to have heightened reflexes, display fine motor skills and is capable of holding items. It also has an unexplained knowledge of a subject’s likes and dislikes.

SCP-XXXX is also capable of demanifesting and remanifesting itself, most commonly when it is removed from a subject's immediate vicinity, which only stops when it deems the subject to have gained closure over their loved one's death. It also does so when a subject actively attempts to harm themselves or experience significant emotional distress. Upon the complete destruction of SCP-XXXX, it will remanifest next to its' subject.

Upon manifestation, SCP-XXXX has been observed in its behaviour to express affection by bringing small snacks, tokens, etc., cooking simple dishes of the subject’s preference as well as forms of hugs and pats. It is also able to produce physical childhood pictures of the deceased's past, even when they were previously destroyed. While it has its’ own conscience, it may follow orders given to it by subjects if it deems it necessary for them to move on from their family member's or friend's death. SCP-XXXX also exhibits mannerisms and characteristics similar to the deceased.

SCP-XXXX is also able to produce a schedule, identified as SCP-XXXX-1, for subjects who do not show a noticeable improvement to their mental state or morale, actively attempt to harm themselves, refuse to accept SCP-XXXX's help and advice, or neglect their physical health and hygiene due to grief. Upon creation, subjects will immediately follow all events that are written on SCP-XXXX-1. However, SCP-XXXX will go through obvious signs of emotional distress upon SCP-XXXX-1's creation (see Addendum XXXX.Y).

Prolonged exposure to SCP-XXXX will cause subjects' mental state and morale to improve greatly and gain closure faster than people who are not exposed to SCP-XXXX.

Research has indicated that SCP-XXXX instances are more likely to appear to individuals who:
· Are parents/guardians of the deceased.
· Are siblings of the deceased.
· Are close friends of the deceased.
· Have lost their child/sibling/friend due to an accident, long-time illness or suicide
· Have lost their significant other due to an accident, long-time illness or suicide

Addendum XXXX.1: Initial Discovery Log

After Junior Researcher Charlie Upston's death on 20/11/2020, an instance of SCP-XXXX, taking the form of a teddy bear (picture above) manifested in Junior Researcher Lilith Agnes' sleeping quarters. SCP-XXXX was sent to the Anomalous Item Research Lab following Incident XXXX.1 for further testing and research.

VIDEO LOG OF INCIDENT XXXX.1


DATE: 20/11/2020


[BEGIN LOG]

10.30 am: SCP-XXXX manifests on Dr. Agnes' bed.

3.45 pm: Dr. Agnes enters her sleeping quarters, collapses onto the floor and begins crying. SCP-XXXX climbs down the bed and rubs her back. Dr. Agnes: Why? Why was it him? Why couldn't it have been me? Why couldn't it have been me?

4.16 pm: Dr. Agnes composes herself, reaches for her phone and messages somebody, presumably Dr. Sam. She gets up and walks to her closet, looks through the drawers and pulls a belt out.

4.18 pm: Dr. Agnes fashions it into a noose, ties it to a ceiling light and closes her eyes. She braces herself, places the noose over her head and steps off the bed. SCP-XXXX immediately rushes into the bathroom, breaks a mirror and grabs a shard of broken glass. It jumps onto her head and cuts the belt. Dr. Agnes screams as she drops to the floor and resumes crying.

4.20 pm: Two on-site medical personnel enter her sleeping quarters and sedate her. After taking her out of her sleeping quarters, SCP-XXXX demanifests and manifests on top of her.

[END LOG]

Notes: The medical personnel were called in by Dr. Sam after his conversation with Researcher Agnes. Their text conversation is logged below.

Agnes99: I'm sorry, Dr. Sam, but I can't do this anymore.

samuel: Agnes?

Agnes99: I can't live with myself knowing he's dead because of me.

Agnes99: Thank you for trying. Goodbye.

samuel: Agnes, please.

samuel: Come to my office.

samuel: We'll talk this through.
