Interviewer: Dr. Ricardo

Interviewed: SCP-3106-A

Foreword: The following is a transcript of an interview with SCP-3106-A. Subject was kept talking for as long as needed. Security personnel were supplied with ground beef to offer to SCP-3106-A as a method of suppressing hostile behavior. Security guards were given authorization to terminate SCP-3106-A if hostile behavior was not controlled by the ground beef. It should be noted that SCP-3106-A stuttered throughout the conversation. Transliteration of the stuttering was removed for readability.

Dr. Ricardo: SCP-3106-A, how do you feel?

SCP-3106-A: Is that what you call me now? I had just gotten used to D-8009.

Dr. Ricardo: If it helps our conversation, I can call you D-8009.

SCP-3106-A: Yeah sure. Let's stick with that.

Dr. Ricardo: D-8009, how do you feel?

(SCP-3106-A is unresponsive for about 10 seconds).

SCP-3106-A: I feel naked. It's too damn cold in this room.

Dr. Ricardo: Describe the way it feels.

SCP-3106-A: You know that feeling you get when you're completely naked somewhere you shouldn't be naked? Like in a dream where you're naked in public. Well, it feels like that on drugs. I don't even know how to describe it. It's just so intense. It's not something people are supposed to be able to feel.

Dr. Ricardo: Interesting. Do you feel anything else?

SCP-3106-A: I don't know, does it feel weird talking to a skeleton?

Dr. Ricardo: What was it like being inside SCP-3106?

SCP-3106-A: It hurt like hell. I mean, my whole body was being ripped apart. Literally down to the bone. At every point on my body. At the same time.

Dr. Ricardo: Can you describe any other anomalies within SCP-3106?

(SCP-3106-A is noticeably agitated).

SCP-3106-A: I don't want to talk about it.

Dr. Ricardo: D-8009, answer the question.

(SCP-3106-A is unresponsive for about 40 seconds).

SCP-3106-A: I can feel it. You have meat in here. My body wants it. I need it. Give it to me, and I'll talk.

(Dr. Ricardo signals security personnel to allow SCP-3106-A access to the ground beef. SCP-3106-A covered itself with the beef and appeared relieved when it was done).

Dr. Ricardo: Are you ready to cooperate?

SCP-3106-A: Yes, that's… That's so much better. I feel warm. Like I'm in a real body.

Dr. Ricardo: So dead animal flesh makes you feel like you're in a real body?

SCP-3106-A: Yes, I have a heartbeat. I can breathe. I don't feel naked anymore. I can feel the table now. I never thought I'd want to feel handcuffs on my wrists again, but this is better than feeling nothing at all.

Dr. Ricardo: So, before you didn't have any sensory input?

SCP-3106-A: Are you stupid? Of course not. I didn't even have skin.

Dr. Ricardo: You indicated feeling cold earlier. Do you mind elaborating?

SCP-3106-A: All I felt was cold. I didn't feel anything else. I bet that's why all those animals go killing animals until they're covered in flesh. It's uncomfortable as hell. It was even starting to drive me a little crazy by the time I asked you for the meat.

Dr. Ricardo: Thank you for that. I need you to be as specific as possible when you answer my questions.

SCP-3106-A: Why don't you take a dip in that bog? Then you could answer them yourself.

(Dr. Ricardo pauses and looks at his papers before responding).

Dr. Ricardo: SCP-3106-A, answer my question about your experience in SCP-3106.

SCP-3106-A: What was the question again?

Dr. Ricardo: Did you experience any anomalies other than what happened to your body?

SCP-3106-A: Yeah, I did. There was something in there with me.

Dr. Ricardo: Tell me about it. What was it?

SCP-3106-A: It wasn't a man. Or a woman. I mean, it wasn't physical, I don't think. Or maybe it was the bog. I don't know. It was just there. I felt it. It was hungry.

Dr. Ricardo: But it didn't want to eat your bones?

SCP-3106-A: Well, it didn't. I wasn't in control. It must have just not wanted them.

Dr. Ricardo: So are you saying it was conscious? Did it seem self-aware?

SCP-3106-A: What you guys are calling a cognitohazard is basically just mind-control. I mean, this thing was in my head, forcing me to stay inside until my skeleton was free to leave my body.

Dr. Ricardo: So what are you saying about it? It thinks?

SCP-3106-A: It has a mind. And I think it has desires and maybe some emotions.

Dr. Ricardo: Please, elaborate.

SCP-3106-A: I don't think it wanted me to die. I think it was just hungry… But… Well, I mean, I'm probably going to sound crazy, but it felt like it was happy. Kind of like it was thanking me for giving it my flesh. I guess that sounds pretty twisted when I say it out loud.



Dr. Ricardo: What are your feelings toward it?

SCP-3106-A: I don't know. It hurt me a lot, but… Maybe it didn't even know it was hurting me.

Dr. Ricardo: D-8009, would you be willing to go back into SCP-3106?

SCP-3106-A: Doctor, I've been a guinea-pig for the Foundation long enough. I know the drill. If I say no, you point a gun at my head. I'll go. I don't know if it'll hurt this time since my body is just hamburger.

Dr. Ricardo: Thank you for your cooperation.
