**Item #: SCP-8896**
**Object Class:** --Euclid--
--**Special Containment Procedures**--
--SCP-8896 is contained within a soundproofed, electromagnetically shielded containment chamber at Site-77. All written instances of SCP-8896 (designated "Boobian") are to be stored in titanium lockboxes within a secure document archive. Personnel assigned to SCP-8896 must wear Class-II memetic hazard suits and undergo biweekly cognitive screenings.--
--Foundation-operated AI-LANG model **Semaphore v1.2** is to monitor public and darknet communication channels for emergent Boobian patterns. Civilians exposed to SCP-8896 are to be administered Class-B amnestics and placed under a 30-day observation period.--
--**Testing Protocol:**--
--* Testing with SCP-8896 requires Level 3 clearance and approval from Dr. ██████ (Linguistic Anomalies Division).--
--* Interaction with Keter-class linguistic anomalies during testing is strictly prohibited.--
------
**Description**
SCP-8896 is a memetic language referred to as "Boobian," composed entirely of permutations of the Latin graphemes **"b"** and **"o"**. The phonetic expression of Boobian adheres to a Morse code-like structure, wherein:
* **"o"** corresponds to a dot (·)
* **"b"** corresponds to a dash (—)
Although limited in lexical diversity, Boobian is capable of encoding complex syntactic, semantic, and even metaphysical structures. Human subjects exposed to Boobian undergo distinct cognitive and physiological changes.
SCP-8896, colloquially known as "The Boobian," is a memetic anomaly that induces rapid linguistic and physiological alterations in affected individuals. The anomaly was first identified following a viral dissemination event on the forum ████████.███.de, titled "boob obo obob" (Trans: //"Language evolves"//). The event, designated as Event 8896-Alpha, occurred between 20██-08-14 and 20██-08-17 in ██████, Germany.
------
**Addendum 8896.1 — Experiment Logs (Euclid Phase)**
**Experiment 8896-1**
**Date:** 20██-09-01
**Subject:** D-11432 (Male, 32; monolingual English speaker)
**Procedure:**
* Subject was exposed to a 10-minute audiovisual presentation of SCP-8896-B ("The Book of Boob") at a frequency of 1,200 Hz.
* Cognitive and linguistic testing conducted at 1-hour intervals post-exposure.
**Results:**
* At 2 hours: Subject accurately translated several basic English words into Boobian.
* At 48 hours: Subject refused to communicate in any language other than Boobian.
* Neural imaging revealed a 40% hypertrophy of Broca’s area.
**Conclusion:** SCP-8896 bypasses traditional language acquisition mechanisms and stimulates rapid neurocognitive adaptation.
------
**Experiment 8896-2**
**Date:** 20██-03-14
**Subject:** D-7741 (Female, 28; fluent in English, French, and Mandarin)
**Procedure:**
* Subject tasked with translating *The Art of War* into Boobian using a Foundation-modified input terminal.
* EEG monitoring conducted during task execution.
**Results:**
* Full translation completed in under 8 hours, with preserved narrative and strategic coherence.
* Post-task behavior included spontaneous glossolalia combining Boobian and other languages (e.g., “boob-quiero comer”).
* Subject attempted to engrave Boobian glyphs into containment walls using fingernails before termination.
**Conclusion:** Boobian overrides multilingual structures and induces linguistic consolidation, often resulting in erratic or self-injurious behavior.
------
**Experiment 8896-3 — Cross-Testing with SCP-426**
**Date:** 20██-05-02
**Subject:** SCP-426-1 (D-9921; cognitohazard-infected, identifies as a toaster)
**Procedure:**
* Subject exposed to SCP-8896-B via headphones while performing routine maintenance tasks.
* Speech patterns monitored for memetic interference.
**Results:**
* Subject began interspersing Boobian phrases with its characteristic self-identification (e.g., “boob \[I am a toaster] bob”).
* Nearby SCP-8896-1 subjects began mimicking toaster-related behavior, including construction of bread-heating devices using cafeteria components.
**Conclusion:** SCP-8896 is capable of assimilating linguistic properties of external cognitohazards, potentially creating hybrid anomalies.
------
**Addendum 8896.2 — Theoretical Applications**
**Project LULLABY (Pending Approval):**
A proposal to utilize SCP-8896 as a memetic pacification tool for volatile populations. Preliminary D-Class trials demonstrated 100% compliance within 24 hours of exposure but resulted in irreversible global aphasia and Boobian dependency.

**Item #: SCP-8896**
**Object Class:** **Keter**
**Special Containment Procedures**
SCP-8896 is housed in a vacuum-sealed memetic isolation chamber at Site-77, outfitted with Faraday shielding to prevent all electromagnetic and phononic transmission. All personnel engaging with SCP-8896 must wear Class-IV memetic hazard suits and undergo cognitive resistance screenings on an hourly basis.
Foundation AI-LANG model **Semaphore v2.0** is tasked with continuous surveillance of global digital communications for SCP-8896 lexical patterns. Mobile Task Force Lambda-4 (“Grammar Police”) is authorized to neutralize outbreaks of SCP-8896 with extreme prejudice.
**Containment Protocol Addenda:**
* All written SCP-8896 instances are to be secured in SCP-914-refined titanium lockboxes.
* Testing requires unanimous O5 Council approval under Protocol Psi-7 ("Linguistic Quarantine").
* Site-77 ventilation systems are equipped with active memetic dampeners filtering acoustic frequencies between 1,200 and 1,500 Hz to mitigate airborne transmission.
* Civilians exposed to SCP-8896 are to be administered Class-B amnestics and subjected to a 90-day observation protocol.
**Bio-Linguistic Ward 77-Delta** has been established for personnel exhibiting SCP-8896 symptoms, including:
* Mammary hyperplasia
* Coccyx elongation exceeding 10 cm
* Spontaneous Boobian speech
Ward surfaces are lined with acoustic foam tuned to 1,500 Hz resonance cancellation.
------
**Description**
SCP-8896 is a self-replicating memetic language referred to as "Boobian." The language utilizes only two graphemes — **"b"** and **"o"** — whose phonemes correspond to Morse code:
* **"o"** = dot (·)
* **"b"** = dash (—)
Despite its limited syntax, Boobian is capable of encoding recursively complex abstract, metaphysical, and non-Euclidean information. Prolonged exposure to SCP-8896 leads to a range of physiological and cognitive abnormalities:
1. **Neurocognitive Rewiring:** Subjects reach fluency in under 12 hours. 96% exhibit irreversible loss of native language comprehension.
2. **Biological Mutations:**
* **Mammary Hyperplasia:** Development of multiple lactating teats (avg. 3–4 pairs), frequently on non-thoracic regions.
* **Coccyx Elongation:** Prehensile tail-like growth averaging 12 cm in length.
* **Lingual Papillae Hypertrophy:** Mutation of oral tissue into glyph-detection structures.
3. **Psychological Regression:** Subjects display infantile behavior, oral fixations, and compulsive Boobian vocalizations.
SCP-8896 first emerged on the ████████████.onion darknet domain via a post attributed to an anonymous user ("lol let’s make a language with just boob").

**Addendum 8896.3 — Experiment Logs (Post-Reclassification)**
**Experiment 8896-6**
**Date:** 20██-10-12
**Subjects:** D-22345 (F, 40), D-22346 (M, 35)
**Procedure:**
1. Subjects placed in hermetically sealed chamber.
2. Chamber contained open copy of SCP-8896-B ("The Book of Boob") to page 16 ("obo boob bob").
3. Ventilation system filtered air to 1,200 Hz for 30 minutes.
4. Real-time EEG and MRI scans conducted.
**Results:**
* D-22345 achieved Boobian fluency in 15 minutes.
* D-22346 developed mammary tissue on palms and chest within 6 hours.
* Subjects communicated in Boobian via Morse code tapping on chamber plumbing.
**Conclusion:** SCP-8896 propagates via infrasound. Protocols updated to mandate use of acoustic dampeners.
------
**Experiment 8896-7 — Project BABEL**
**Objective:** Attempted containment-through-translation via SCP-1096 ("Perfect Plastic").
**Subjects:** D-55230 (M, 28), D-55231 (F, 33)
**Procedure:**
1. SCP-1096 implants surgically inserted into subjects’ Broca’s area.
2. Neural output translated into Boobian via implant protocol.
3. Monitored for linguistic and somatic anomalies.
**Results:**
* D-55230: Entered catatonic state, repeating “boob” while immobilized.
* D-55231: Vocal emissions caused mammary hyperplasia in three observers; attempted to nurse from SCP-8896-B before termination.
**Conclusion:** Cognitive translation attempts result in irreversible neurological degradation. Weaponization deemed non-viable.
------
**Experiment 8896-8 — Cross-Contamination with SCP-597 ("The Mother")**
**Date:** 20██-12-01
**Procedure:**
1. SCP-597 lactate exposed to SCP-8896-B glyphs.
2. Infected samples distributed to D-class personnel.
**Results:**
* D-11433 (M): Began lactating SCP-8896-encoded milk.
* Secondary outbreak: 23 personnel regressed into prelingual states, repeatedly carving Boobian glyphs ("obo bob") into skin.
**Containment:** SCP-597 placed under indefinite quarantine. All future cross-anomaly testing with SCP-8896 prohibited.
------
**Addendum 8896.6: Experiment 8896-Omega**
**Date:** 20██-09-01
**Objective:** Assess SCP-8896’s memetic saturation threshold under controlled resonance amplification conditions.
**Subject:** D-11432 (legacy SCP-8896-1 instance; pre-reclassification exposure).
**Procedure**
* **Setup:**
* Subject D-11432 was confined to a reinforced titanium chamber at Site-77, Sector 5.
* The chamber was lined with acoustic dampeners calibrated to cancel 1,500 Hz resonance.
* SCP-8896-B ("The Book of Boob") was placed on a pedestal, open to page 32 (“Obooboo bobob booboboob”).
* Twelve ultrasonic speakers were installed to broadcast Boobian phrases at 1,500 Hz.
* **Exposure Protocol:**
* Resonance frequencies were increased incrementally from 1,200 Hz to 1,500 Hz over a 72-hour period.
* Biometric monitoring (EEG, MRI, spectrographic analysis) was conducted continuously.
* **Contingency Measures:**
* MTF Lambda-4 ("Grammar Police") operatives in Class-IV memetic hazard suits were stationed externally.
* Emergency deployment of amnestic gas (Version 4.2-Δ) was authorized.
**Results**
* **Biological Mutation:**
* **Hour 12:** Subject’s coccyx extended into a prehensile appendage (final length: 1.2 m).
* **Hour 36:** Lingual papillae exhibited hypertrophy, forming bioluminescent glyph-recognition structures.
* **Hour 60:** Subject began lactating Boobian-encoded fluid (pH 8.3, 40% sucrose concentration).
* **Memetic Outbreak:**
* D-11432 used its coccyx to transcribe Boobian glyphs onto chamber walls.
* Glyphs emitted airborne memetic particles (avg. diameter: 0.3 µm).
* HVAC systems failed to contain airborne spread; 34% of Site-77 staff were exposed.
* **Cognitohazard Activation:**
* At 72-hour mark, D-11432 vocalized the phrase “Obooboo bobob booboboob,” identified as a Level 5 cognitohazard.
* Resulted in immediate liquefaction of the Broca’s area in 12 on-site personnel.
* Structural collapse of Sector 5’s west wing occurred due to harmonic resonance overload.
**Aftermath**
* **Casualties:** 60% of Site-77 staff were terminated (via Stage 3 mutations or neural trauma).
* **Containment Measures:** Site-77 entered lockdown for 14 days. Residual memetic particles were neutralized using thermobaric incineration.
* **Reclassification:** SCP-8896 was formally upgraded to **Keter** status on 20██-09-02.
