Lore Name: Liver Rank: Junior Researcher SCP: 1048 Question / Idea: Provided access to human subjects, does SCP-1048 exhibit preferences for different body parts for the use of creating instances of SCP-1048-X? Background Research: Two of the prior occurrences of SCP-1048 creating additional anomalies used biological material taken from foundation researchers. SCP-1048-C may have been created due to a lack of opportunities to procure biological material. Hypothesis: I believe SCP-1048 finds specific components of the human body more appetizing when attempting to create a "copy" of itself. Usage of a human fetus, assuming SCP-1048 manually removed it, is a labor intensive process. Usage of ears, fingers, or toes would be more discreet and quicker to take from the unconscious host. Logically, SCP-1048 found the fetus more fit for its task than any other body part. Observations: Upon the introduction of three restrained D-class personnel to the testing chamber containing SCP-1048, SCP-1048 approached each in turn, exhibiting affectionate behavior for nearly two minutes before one of the D-class personnel fell unconscious. At this point, SCP-1048 approached the unconscious person person and pulled on its ear, removing it in one motion. The ear was removed from SCP-1048's possession and D-class personnel were administered amnestics and medical attention before their return to D-block. Evidence/Visual Stimuli: N/A Analysis / Conclusion: The ear that SCP-1048 took seems to have been removed cleanly, regardless of the method of its removal. This is a nearly identical situation to the prior incident at site 24. I believe that SCP-1048 possesses a sort of memetic "lullaby" effect used to render its victims helpless while it takes source material for the creation of more copies of SCP-1048. SCP-1048 also appears to prefer ears when fetuses are not present. Further testing may be necessary to determine SCP-1048's preferences when presented with ear-less D-class personnel or pregnant women. A greater volume of tests is also necessary to ensure that our conclusion can be supported statistically. Was Your Hypothesis Correct?: My hypothesis appears correct, although I would like to hold an interview and a series of tests to more emphatically provide my colleagues with certain results.

Name: Seeker Rank: JR SCP: 012 Question: How long can a subject resist the SCPs anomolous power? Background research: I have seen this SCP controlling a subject before and wanted to know what it could do and what it cant do. Hypothesis: Can the subject who has seen SCP-012 and is in the room with it, can it resist the anomolous power or can the subject not. Observations: Test #001 I had instructed a Class D to resist the powers of the SCP. He had done well and could have possible survived at least 10 seconds or more if I didn't telll him to interact with the scp. Test #001 sucessful. Test #002 and #003. I had instructed the 2 Class Ds to try and resist the affects of the scp for more than 5 seconds if possible, ( when a subject is close to the scp for at least 5 seconds they will die ) the 2 Class Ds tried to resist its affects ( or powers how ever you want to choose it ) they failed and died at the least less than 5 seconds. Test #002 and #003 failed. Test #004 I had instructed the Class D to resist the scps powers (or affects) the Class had done so and survived more than 5 seconds which it was impressive from the last 3 tests. But before the Class D died, I saw him trying to complete the section of the SCP and saying the piece is impossible to finish, the same Class Ds said the same thing in the last 3 tests before they died. Conclusion: The subject can survive only a matter of time before using their blood to complete the unfinishable or impossible piece in the SCP. Was Your Hypothesis Correct? It was infact indeed correct, the subject can only survive less or more than 5 seconds before dying of blood loss by trying to create the final piece.
