Description: SCP-5046 is a standard blue push pin or thumbtack of unknown make or brand. The head is made of plastic and has a hardened steel point. Despite the anomaly being made of non-anomalous materials, it has the ability to easily pierce objects that a non-anomalous pin would have difficulty or be unable to pierce. As of the most recent iteration of this article, the Foundation has not found any material anomalous or non- anomalous that SCP-5046 is unable to pierce.
Any object that is pierced by the anomaly becomes animated as if alive. Parts of the animated object, hereafter referred to as SCP-5046-1, will become capable of motion loosely mimicking the normal range of movement of a similarly shaped biological creature. This often results in SCP-5046-1 manipulating its form in ways that would normally be damaging for the object. Regardless of damage inflicted on SCP-5046-1, upon removal of SCP-5046 from SCP-5046-1's form it will return to its previous form with all damage repaired, including the damage caused by the application of SCP-5046 and damage inflicted on the object by external sources.
SCP-5046 was recovered from an abandoned warehouse belonging to a company called Konstantz on 06/12/2006, alongside a pamphlet presumably intended to advertise the product. See Addendum SCP-5046-1.
As of 10/25/2006, testing involving any living or once-living entities are no longer to be performed without signed permission from Head Researcher Arthur Perrin.
Addendum: + Addendum SCP-5046-1 The following is an advertisement, presumably written by members of Konstantz's marketing team intended to draw interest in SCP-5046.
"Presenting to the world a most useful item! This magical pin can bring to life any object! Have you ever wanted a pet table? What if you could have a chair that could move around at your direction? These objects don't just move they think! Perhaps you could make your beloved childhood toys love you just as much as you love them!" Test A • Test B Test C Test D Test E Test F Test A - 06/22/2006 Subject: SCP-5046 Procedure: SCP-5046 is to be applied to a wooden, four legged chair.
Results: Approximately 5 seconds after SCP-5046 pierced the chair, the chair began to shudder and shake. The chair, referred to as SCP-5046-1 for the remainder of this test, then began to move in a manner reminiscent of a quadrupedal animal. It traveled around the room using the chair's legs to achieve motion, with the back of the chair twisted and tilted as if looking around the room.
D-90353 was sent in to remove SCP-5046 from SCP-5046-1. Upon spotting D-90353, SCP-5046-1 immediately resumed motion, heading towards D-90353 at a rapid gait and stopping upon reaching them. It proceeded to caress D-90353's leg with the back of the chair. D-90353 stated that this was a surprisingly soft and pleasant caress despite the hard wooden material of the chair.
D-90353 was instructed to remove SCP-5046 and did so. Upon removal of SCP-5046, SCP-5046-1 immediately returned to its shape prior to testing and became inanimate once more.
Analysis: SCP-5046-1 acted in a manner that implied curiosity in regards to its surroundings as well as endearment towards D-90353. Despite the chair's legs bending in a manner that should have caused damage to the material, upon removal of SCP-5046 the chair was in perfect condition. The chair is being held in a locked storage room alongside all future SCP-5046 test subjects until it can be proven that SCP-5046 has no lingering effects on objects.
Test B - 06/30/2006 Subject: SCP-5046 Procedure: SCP-5046 is to be applied to the same wooden, four legged chair and to a four legged pewter coffee table. The primary purpose of this test is to establish whether the animated objects keep memories between animations as well as between animation of different objects; the secondary purpose is to find out whether there is a specific entity behind these animations.
Results: SCP-5046 was applied to the chair, hereafter referred to as SCP-5046-1, which animated as per the results of Test A. D-90353 was already in the testing chamber at the start of this test. Upon spotting D-90353, SCP-5046-1 rushed to him and began caressing him again.
D-90353 was instructed to return affection to SCP-5046-1 and did so without hesitation, which SCP-5046-1 reacted positively to.
• • • • • D-90353 was instructed to remove SCP-5046. Once SCP-5046 was removed, SCP-5046-1 returned to its inanimate form.
For the next part of the test, SCP-5046-1 was re-animated and D-92195 was given an axe and told to enter the room. Upon spotting D-92195 entering the testing chamber, SCP-5046-1 headed towards him, but stopped before reaching him. It became wary and began retreating from D-92195, who was ordered to destroy SCP-5046-1. D-92195 complied and buried the axe into the seat of SCP-5046-1. SCP-5046-1 could not respond verbally, but did recoil and attempt to flee from D-92195.
D-90353 was sent into the testing chamber. Upon spotting D-90353 entering the testing chamber, SCP-5046-1 headed towards him and proceeded to attempt to hide behind him. D-90353 was instructed to remove SCP-5046.
Upon doing so SCP-5046-1 reverted to a normal, fully repaired chair, even repairing the damage from the axe.
For the final part of the test. SCP-5046 was applied to a four legged pewter coffee table, hereafter referred to as SCP-5046-1. SCP-5046 had no difficulty piercing the pewter material and the coffee table animated shortly. It proceeded to achieve locomotion in a similar manner as the chair. D-90353 was sent into the testing chamber and SCP-5046-1 approached D-90353 and attempted to once again caress him. D-92195 was then sent in.
SCP-5046-1, immediately upon noticing D-92195, proceeded to attempt to hide behind D-90353. D-90353 was instructed to remove SCP-5046, which he did.
Analysis: SCP-5046-1 showed recognition of D-90353 and D-92195 throughout all stages of the test. We can therefore assume that SCP-5046-1 retains memories between animations. This implies that there may be a specific entity, potentially contained within, or called forth by, SCP-5046. It is recommended that following tests seek to establish information pertaining to this entity.
Test C - 07/05/2006 Subject: SCP-5046 Procedure: SCP-5046 is to be applied to the same wooden, four legged chair and D-90353 is to give verbal commands to SCP-5046-1 and eventually attempt to sit on SCP-5046-1 in order to gauge its reaction to being used like the object it is animating.
Results: SCP-5046 animated the chair as per usual. SCP-5046-1 was given a minute to adjust to being animate again before D-90353 entered the testing chamber. SCP-5046-1 reacted with excitement to seeing D-90353 again and rushed towards him. As per instructions D-90353 ordered SCP-5046-1 to stop. SCP-5046-1 hesitated for approximately a second before complying.
D-90353 without being instructed to do so, ordered SCP-5046-1 to lie down.
SCP-5046-1 proceeded to bend all four legs horizontally from the seat of the chair until the underside of the seat was touching the ground. This seemed to cause SCP-5046-1 no difficulty or discomfort. D-90353 praised SCP-5046-1 at which point SCP-5046-1 returned to an upright position. D-90353 then did as he had been instructed to do and ordered SCP-5046-1 to stay, before approaching and sitting down on the seat of SCP-5046-1. SCP-5046-1 seemed to suffer no discomfort from supporting D-90353's weight and upon being ordered to do so by D-90353 began to move around the edge of the testing chamber. Its movement was hampered slightly by D-90353's weight, but it showed no signs of distress. After this, D-90353 was ordered to remove SCP-5046 and did so.
Analysis: SCP-5046-1 understands verbal commands and, assuming the intelligence animating SCP-5046-1 is itself animal in nature, it has some amount of previous training to recognize what is expected from it in response to certain common commands used with domestic animals. SCP-5046-1 responded to being used like a chair with no qualms. It can be assumed that perhaps it expects this to some degree. With only visual cues available to us as a method of understanding SCP-5046-1's emotional responses it is difficult to understand exactly how it feels in any specific situation. D-90353 claims that it seemed happy while carrying him. D-90353 feels that SCP-5046-1 might just want to be helpful. D-90353 has also taken to referring to SCP-5046-1 as Rebel after a dog D-90353 had in childhood.
D-90353 has developed an emotional connection to SCP-5046-1 and it is recommended he be replaced as his emotional attachment might lead to irrational or rebellious acts in future tests.
Test D - 09/15/2006 Subject: SCP-5046 Procedure: SCP-5046 is to be applied to a human corpse.
Results: SCP-5046 was applied to the corpse, hereafter referred to as SCP-5046-1, which animated as per the results of previous tests. Mere moments after animation, SCP-5046-1 vocalized. It spoke the words "What the fuck?", and proceeded to look itself over, reacting with horror. Before it could be stopped it removed SCP-5046 and the corpse returned to an inanimate form.
Analysis: This test proves that the intelligence that animates SCP-5046-1 is capable of intelligent speech and is aware of the method by which it is animated.
Test E - 09/28/2006 Subject: SCP-5046 Procedure: SCP-5046 is to be applied to another human corpse which is to be bound to prevent another premature termination.
Results: SCP-5046 was applied to the corpse, hereafter referred to as SCP-5046-1, which animated as per the results of previous tests.
SCP-5046-1 took in its current situation and began to swear profusely and struggle against its binds. Project Head Arthur Perrin decided to conduct this test himself and entered the Testing Chamber. Upon spotting him SCP-5046-1 proceeded to swear at him and insult him. Dr. Perrin ignored him and engaged SCP-5046-1 in an interview. (See: Interview Log SCP-5046-1) After the interview SCP-5046 was removed and the test was terminated.
Analysis: See Interview Log SCP-5046-1 Interview log SCP-5046-1 Interviewed: SCP-5046-1 Interviewer: Project Head Dr. Arthur Perrin Foreword: This interview occurred during SCP-5046 Test E <Begin Log, 2:55 PM, 09/28/2006> SCP-5046-1: You fucking worthless motherfucker! I'm going to fucking kill you! What is wrong with you people?
Dr. Perrin: Please 5046-1 calm down.
SCP-5046-1: Why the hell should I calm down? You animated me into a fucking corpse?! Is this some sick joke?
Dr. Perrin: My apologies we were simply trying to find a way to allow you to communicate with us.
SCP-5046-1: What makes you think I want to communicate with you?
Dr. Perrin: A fair point, but if you want to get out of that body you're going to have to.
SCP-5046-1: Fine… What do you want to talk about?
Dr. Perrin: Well… First… A matter of personal curiosity actually. It was you in the chair and the end table right? The same entity I'm talking to right now?
SCP-5046-1: Yes. It's been me the whole time. Which by the way. You know being hit with an axe fucking hurts right?
Dr. Perrin: I'm sorry about that, but if that was you why… Well why did you act like an animal?
SCP-5046-1: Well I'm supposed to… Also I mean what else am I supposed to do? Without being able to verbalize and stuck in certain forms it's just easiest to interact in a manner befitting the body. You ever try to hug someone or shake their hand as a chair?
Dr. Perrin: I imagine it would be difficult.
SCP-5046-1: No shit.
Dr. Perrin: Are you always so combative? You seemed pretty nice when interacting with D-90353.
SCP-5046-1: What the hell kind of name is D-90353? Actually you know what I don't care. Here's the answer to your question. I'm combative as you call it because you've stuck me in a rotting fucking corpse and I can feel it you know. I can feel it rotting every second I'm inhabiting it. It's a horrible feeling. I'd throw up, but I'm not physically capable of doing so. Of course I shouldn't really be able to talk or… Well, feel anything in a corpse, but I don't make the rules of how this animation stuff works. It's all arbitrary and if you asked me it seems to just decide what does and does not work on a whim.
Dr. Perrin: Our apologies. We just figured that something with vocal cords would be easier to communicate through.
SCP-5046-1: Yeah yeah I get it. I'm sorry I'm not usually like this. I try to be helpful and friendly. I mean that's the entire reason I exist, but it's hard to not be… Well, kind of upset about being trapped inside a corpse.
Dr. Perrin: We'll try to be quick then. We just have a few questions.
SCP-5046-1: I'll try to answer, but every second in here is terrible agony.
Please be quick.
Dr. Perrin: I'll try my best. First of all. So, you said your reason to exist was to be helpful and friendly?
SCP-5046-1: Yes. I was created to be… well, a companion. I'm naturally a pretty friendly person. I exist primarily to be… a pet I guess. A loving companion. I guess maybe for the kind of people who can't take care of proper pets for some reason or other. I don't need feeding and I don't need to be taken for walks or given a litter box or anything like that. I also don't have fur or anything that might upset allergies. I mean I don't want to toot my own horn, but I'm pretty much the perfect pet.
Dr. Perrin: I see… Can you tell me who created you and how?
SCP-5046-1: Well my creator was- No… Sorry, but if you want to talk to me you're going to have to use something other than a corpse. I can't keep going like this. It's horrible. You wanna talk animate something that isn't actively rotting, please.
<End Log, 3:15 PM, 09/28/2006> Closing Statement: SCP-5046-1 became unresponsive, refusing to speak further, and eventually Dr. Perrin removed SCP-5046. Despite not learning what we wanted to learn we did learn a large amount of valuable information.
Dr. Perrin has proposed a plan for Test F to the Ethics committee.
Note from The Ethics Committee To SCP-5046 project Head Dr. Arthur Perrin Your proposal has caused quite a split in the Ethics Committee. It has been a long deliberation, but The Committee has decided to approve your proposal on the condition that the subject of your proposal must be a willing participant. If you can find someone willing to understand and take that risk you may proceed.
Erica Mai, Ethics Committee Chair.
Test F - 10/25/2006 Subject: SCP-5046 Procedure: SCP-5046 is to be applied to D-90353 who has volunteered for this test as per Ethics Committee orders.
Results: D-90353 was strapped to a chair as a precaution against another premature termination; SCP-5046 was then applied to D-90353, hereafter referred to as SCP-5046-1. SCP-5046-1 went rigid and then started to frantically tug on its binds, looking down at itself in horror again. It didn't speak for a few moments, and then Project Head Arthur Perrin entered the Testing Chamber to conduct another interview. Upon spotting him SCP-5046-1 proceeded to simply glare at him. Dr. Perrin tried to start a conversation with SCP-5046-1, but SCP-5046-1 cut him off. (See: Interview Log SCP-5046-2) After the interview, SCP-5046 was removed and the test was terminated.
Analysis: See Interview Log SCP-5046-2 Interview log SCP-5046-2 Interviewed: SCP-5046-1 Interviewer: Project Head Dr. Arthur Perrin Foreword: This interview occurred during SCP-5046 Test F <Begin Log, 4:44 PM, 10/25/2006> Dr. Perrin: Hello- SCP-5046-1: No shut up! Tell me… Who is this? This body isn't dead. You fucking monsters put me in a living person. Who was he?
Dr. Perrin: It's D-90353… SCP-5046-1: That… That's the guy from the first test right? The guy who was nice to me?
Dr. Perrin: Yes… He voluntee- SCP-5046-1: Stop! Stop talking unless I tell you to. You have lost the right to ask me fucking anything. I liked this guy. He was nice to me and now you killed him. No, You made me kill him.
Dr. Perrin: We don't kno- SCP-5046-1: No you don't know. I do though. I know he's dead. When you fucking animate something with me you're essentially summoning me into a hollow vessel. There's no consciousness there so I can just sort of… Fill that spot. Now when you put me into a conscious being well that spot I'm filling up, it's already filled. When I leave there won't be anything left. Actually, he'll be alive, but only in the physical sense. You've killed this man. You caused me to kill this man. This man who I liked. I can't… I can't even be- SCP-5046-1 goes silent Dr. Perrin: I'm really sorry we didn't know- SCP-5046-1: No you didn't know. You wanted to know, though. You were going to find out the things you wanted to know and you didn't care how you found out. D-90353… That's not a name that's a designation. What was his name?
Dr. Perrin: I- We have records of each D-class I could look up his real name in our files if you wish to know what his name was?
SCP-5046-1 chuckles humorlessly SCP-5046-1: You didn't even know his name.
SCP-5046-1 pauses for a bit seemingly thinking to himself SCP-5046-1: You want to know everything don't you? Knowledge at any cost? Then I have a deal for you. I'll tell you everything, but on one condition.
I want to speak with your mouth. You were willing to sacrifice this poor man for knowledge, I imagine you'll have no problem sacrificing yourself as well, Dr? A small price to pay for the knowledge you seek… <End Log, 5:00 PM, 10/25/2006> Closing Statement: SCP-5046-1 became unresponsive, refusing to speak further. Dr. Perrin removed SCP-5046 and D-90353 became limp. There was no sign of brain activity. Project Head Dr. Arthur Perrin has forbidden all future tests involving living or once-living entities without his express orders.
