**Item #:** SCP-9843
**Object Class:** Euclid
**Special Containment Procedures:** **SCP-9843-1** is held in a modified humanoid containment cell at Site-17, retrofitted per Bio-Psychiatric Containment Standard 4 - padded surfaces, no cords, nothing rigid or edged, continuous audio-visual monitoring. Site-17 was chosen for two reasons: existing infrastructure for long-term containment of biologically anomalous humanoid subjects, and a co-located neurological research staff.
Twice daily, SCP-9843-1 undergoes psychological evaluation by Site-17 staff cleared to Level 3. Any utterance referencing "him," "it," "the pull," or similar third-party framing must be logged verbatim and forwarded to the assigned research lead (currently Dr. E. Okafor) within the hour.
During unsupervised periods, every object capable of facilitating self-harm is removed from SCP-9843-1's presence. Personnel on direct supervision rotate every 20 minutes and undergo a mandatory 72-hour behavioral monitoring period afterward - standard protocol for exposure to anomalies with unconfirmed cognitohazardous potential.
Surgical or invasive contact with **SCP-9843-2** remains suspended pending Ethics Committee review, following the outcome of Addendum 9843-3. Non-invasive imaging (MRI, EEG, PET) may continue weekly.
Per Directive 9843-Skyfall, all Foundation-affiliated and monitored civilian aerospace agencies, including the ██████████ Space Agency (████), have received a standing advisory: report any EVA suit breach involving visor or coating damage above 80km altitude, regardless of apparent severity. Mobile Task Force Beta-7 ("Maz Hatters") handles first response for any recovered suit hardware or personnel matching this profile. Two further candidate cases are under review (see Addendum 9843-4).
**Description:** SCP-9843 refers collectively to an anomalous organism (SCP-9843-2) and its current human host (SCP-9843-1, real name withheld - hereafter designation only), a 41-year-old astronaut formerly a mission specialist with the ████ Space Agency, operating under a standing Foundation oversight agreement.
SCP-9843-2 is translucent, iridescent, and semi-gelatinous, ranging from 0.5mm to 4mm in thickness depending on how it has distributed itself across host tissue. Under standard light, it throws off an oil-slick sheen that shifts through violet, teal, and amber - no consistent pigment source has been identified. The organism adheres directly to the cerebral cortex's surface, extending microscopic filaments into subcortical white matter. It gives off no detectable sound, odor, heat signature, or electromagnetic emission, and shows no visible motion under real-time observation. Yet comparative MRI scans taken eleven days apart show roughly 6mm of lateral migration across the frontal and temporal lobes - movement too slow to catch at any observed timescale, but undeniably there.
Unlike other cognitohazardous or parasitic anomalies on file, SCP-9843-2 does not induce possession or override host motor function, speech, or explicit decision-making. Instead, histological and functional imaging point to something quieter and more insidious: the organism gradually metabolizes host neurons at the contact point and replaces them with structurally similar cells built from its own genetic material. The replacement rate stays under 0.3% of affected cortical tissue per week, which lets the host retain memory, language, and most personality markers largely intact - and which has let SCP-9843-2 infestations slip past civilian medical detection for weeks at a stretch.
The primary observed effect is a subtle escalation in self-destructive and outward-directed violent behavior, occurring without any matching shift in the host's stated values, goals, or self-narrative. Hosts don't report wanting to hurt themselves or others. What they describe instead is a rise in "accidents," impulsive risk-taking, and brief unprovoked hostility that feels, to them, alien to their own character. SCP-9843-1 put it this way in Interview 9843-2 (below): "watching someone else drive my body badly."
Foundation Department of Analysis staff have floated - without confirmation - a simpler explanation: that this behavioral profile is a byproduct of feeding rather than any deliberate strategy. The organism, on this view, wants nothing beyond consumption; the behavioral fallout is just what damaged, partially-replaced neural tissue produces as a side effect. Dr. Okafor takes this up further in her closing note.
**Discovery:** SCP-9843-1 was one of three crew members on mission ████-14, a fourteen-day extravehicular maintenance operation at the ████████ orbital platform. During a six-hour scheduled spacewalk to replace a radiation shielding panel, suit telemetry logged a 40-second pressure fluctuation alongside an unexplained UV sensor spike, later traced to micrometeorite contact that had fractured the visor's UV-filtering coating. Nothing anomalous was flagged at the time. SCP-9843-1 completed the mission and returned to Earth on ██/██/20██ with no immediate symptoms.
Foundation involvement began nineteen days post-landing, when SCP-9843-1's family brought the subject to ██████████ Regional Hospital for severe, recurring headaches paired with an abrupt personality shift: uncharacteristic irritability, two minor at-fault vehicle collisions attributed to reckless driving, and one instance of self-inflicted injury - the subject punched a wall bare-handed twice, fracturing three metacarpals, and afterward couldn't account for having done it.
Attending physicians noted that during brief "lucid" episodes, SCP-9843-1 would grow tearful and repeat variations of "he talks to me" or "I can't make it stop" before reverting to a flatter affect. A civilian MRI, ordered to rule out an intracranial mass, instead turned up SCP-9843-2. When the attending radiologist, Dr. █████ ██████, tried to submit the scan for external peer review, standing Foundation web-crawler protocols for anomalous imaging terminology intercepted the submission. A Mobile Task Force Beta-7 element was dispatched, administered standard Class B amnestics to the civilian staff involved, and brought SCP-9843-1 into Foundation custody.

**Addendum 9843-1: Interview Log**
Recorded four days into containment, during a period monitoring staff flagged as a lucid interval.
**Dr. Okafor:** How are you feeling today?
**SCP-9843-1:** Tired. There's pressure behind my left eye. Comes and goes.
**Dr. Okafor:** Your family mentioned someone talks to you. Can you describe that?
**SCP-9843-1:** [pause] It's not talking, exactly. You know how a word gets stuck in your head and you can't tell if you thought it or heard it? Like that - except it isn't my word.
**Dr. Okafor:** What does it say?
**SCP-9843-1:** Nothing in particular. Not sentences. More like a pull toward doing something. Then afterward I think: why did I do that?
**Dr. Okafor:** Take your time.
**SCP-9843-1:** I hit the wall. I remember deciding to. It felt like my decision and also not mine - both at once. I know that doesn't make sense.
**Dr. Okafor:** It makes more sense than you'd think. Do you know why it wants that?
**SCP-9843-1:** [quietly] I don't think it wants anything. I think it's just hungry, and this is what hungry looks like from the inside. [affect flattens; interview terminated at staff discretion]

**Addendum 9843-2: Suit Hardware Analysis**
Forensic review of SCP-9843-1's recovered EVA visor turned up a 1.2mm hairline fracture in the UV-filtering coating, consistent with micrometeorite damage. Trace residue at the fracture site matched, genetically and biochemically, tissue later extracted from SCP-9843-2. The working hypothesis - unconfirmed - holds that SCP-9843-2 exists as a dormant, UV-reactive spore somewhere in interplanetary space or the upper atmosphere, activated into a motile, tissue-seeking state by direct, unfiltered solar ultraviolet exposure.
----
**Addendum 9843-3: Extraction Attempt**
A single surgical excision attempt was authorized and carried out at Site-17. On incision, SCP-9843-2 redistributed its mass across a wider area of the cortical surface within seconds, thinning below 0.5mm and slipping past visual detection, though EEG anomalies consistent with its presence persisted throughout. Staff aborted the procedure after 40 minutes to avoid unacceptable damage to healthy tissue. SCP-9843-1 reported no memory loss afterward, but described the "pull" as "worse, like it's annoyed now" for six days. Further invasive attempts remain suspended pending Ethics Committee review (see Containment Procedures, above).

**Addendum 9843-4: Exploration Log 9843-A**
Following Directive 9843-Skyfall, MTF Beta-7 conducted a retrieval operation on a decommissioned EVA suit flagged during the retroactive ten-year hardware audit, recovered from long-term storage at a ████ Space Agency facility. That suit had recorded an undocumented visor micro-fracture during mission ████-09, six years earlier; the astronaut assigned to it - designation withheld - was cleared of any anomalous condition at the time and has since left active service. What follows is an excerpt from the field log of the Beta-7 element known, per standard task force convention, as "Cassidy."
> **00:00** - Suit retrieved from Storage Bay ██, ████ Space Agency facility. Visor intact but showing the fracture pattern flagged in the audit. No occupant; suit unused for six years.
>
> **00:12** - Swabbed the fracture site per protocol. Sample visually consistent with the residue described in Addendum 9843-2 - same iridescent quality under UV lamp.
>
> **00:19** - Sample inert under all field tests. No motility, no thermal signature. Recommending full lab workup over field destruction.
>
> **00:31** - Note for the record: whatever's on this visor has sat in a storage bay for six years doing nothing. That's either good news, or it means we don't understand its dormancy window at all. Bagging it. Requesting full Beta-7 team for the next flagged suit instead of a single-element response - if this thing can sit dormant for years, I don't want anyone finding one alone.
Sample designated SCP-9843-3, pending full characterization. Whether it represents a second specimen of the same organism or inert residue from a failed or aborted infestation attempt remains undetermined. One additional flagged case from the ten-year audit is still unrecovered as of this writing.

**Note from Dr. Okafor:** I don't think this organism is malicious in any sense we'd recognize. It behaves less like a mind and more like a mold smart enough to disguise its own symptoms - which doesn't make it less dangerous. If anything, that's what makes it worse: it isn't negotiating with us, and it isn't going to stop on its own. We're watching something convert "hungry" into "violent" one neuron at a time, in a man who has no idea it's happening to him most days. I'd also ask people to stop calling this thing the "Milky Way monster" outside of casual conversation. It's teaching junior staff to treat an active containment problem - one with an unknown number of dormant copies sitting in storage bays we haven't even checked yet - like a campfire story.

Of note, when addressed about the AI usage, the user lied about it. This is their only forum post on the site: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-18338749/scp-9843#post-9067858 reply to comment "No offense, honestly, but this sure reads like AI to me."
Thank you for giving feedback, I understand why the article isn't working for the community standards and it's heading for deletion, the structure, the tone maybe can make it pretty generic to the reader.
I do want to clarify that I didn't use generative AI for the article, but I acknowledge that it could give the impression of that, or felt generic.
I will backup the text to sandbox, work on a complete rewrite of it from scratch to fix all the issues and seek proper help for it to be published here, it's my first article so I guess these things would happen. Thank you
Also I would like to see if you guys liked the idea 👀
