SCP - ████ : “The Devilish YouTuber”
Item #: SCP- ████
Object Class: Keter Euclid - See notes
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-████, SCP-████-1, and SCP-████-a are all permitted to continue normal activities in the ██████ prefecture of Japan, with regular check-ins to Site 79. Those who live with, around, or near SCP-████-a are eligible for routine wellness checks by Site 79 staff. If any effect from SCP-████, or effect from the presence of SCP-████-1, is reported to harm a civilian, staff should notify Dr. C. C. ██████ immediately.
SCP-████ will commonly vanish and reappear at will, making it very hard to contain. SCP-████ also possesses the ability to float and fly, and prefers doing so over walking. Any attempts to contain SCP-████ or SCP-████-a must be cleared by Dr. C. C. ██████ prior, or strict action will be taken. It currently resides in an unknown location, referred only to by SCP-████ as ‘my house’. If SCP-████ is under temporary surveillance in a facility for any given reason, it must be allowed to make a ‘snack run’ at will. This consists of allowing SCP-████ to teleport out of the facility, and return with a █████████ brand chocolate bar. This is also not to be considered a containment breach. As of [DATE REDACTED], SCP-████ has returned to the facility as promised every recorded ‘snack run’, and can be trusted to leave surveillance measures for an amount of time not exceeding 25 minutes.
If prompted, no personnel are to accept a ‘contract’ from SCP-████. It will offer to shoot a Youtube video, but only if the person receiving the offer signs a contract. This rule applies to anyone, regardless of clearance level. Dr. H. ██████ must be notified if a contract is made with SCP-████. Any person who signs a contract with SCP-████ must be incapacitated and contained immediately.
SCP-████-1 possesses the very same abilities that make SCP-████ difficult to keep contained. It will mimic SCP-████ in almost every action. Staff must ensure, in the event of a containment being necessary, that SCP-████ and SCP-████-1 are housed together. No attempts to take away SCP-████-1 from SCP-████ should be made. In the event that SCP-████-1 needs to be contained by itself, contact Dr. A. ███████████ at Site 79. Site 79 is not equipped for any reaction SCP-████ may have to such an action towards SCP-████-1.
SCP-████-a is to continue residing in ████, Japan. He may attend school at ████████ Elementary and remain off-site with his family. No attempts to contain SCP-████-a in any facility should be made.
SCP-████-2, and any guest cameos on other channels, are currently considered safe to watch and distribute online. Personnel are free to view the content of the channel.
SCP-████-3 is to be locked in a small containment box inside Site 79. It is not to be put into a computer, or have the files on it viewed, copied, or deleted. SCP-████-3 must remain intact for Foundation archive purposes.
Description: SCP-████ consists of two anomalous entities, a human civilian, and their collaborative Youtube channel. SCP-████ as a whole can be found collaborating to make Youtube videos together in various places in SCP-████-a’s town of residence. These videos are then uploaded to SCP-████-2.
SCP-████ is a 160 cm tall humanoid being of unknown age, gender, and biology. SCP-████ wears a pure black outfit resembling a gakuran , with three red triangles replacing the buttons traditional of the uniform in order to reference the YouTube logo. It also wears black gloves and shoes. SCP-████’s hair spikes upwards in an anomalous manner, and has been observed to ‘flow’ like a flame for brief moments. The right side of SCP-████’s face is always obscured by a long black ‘bang’ with another red triangle on it. This particular triangle does not appear to be a symbol, and SCP-████ has referred to it as its ‘eye’. This triangle can squint and widen to match the current expression of SCP-████ . As of [DATE EXPUNGED], only A-Class personnel may ask SCP-████ about the ‘eye’.
SCP-████ has a tendency to sneak up on people to introduce itself. When visiting facilities and introducing itself to personnel, SCP-████ will refuse to identify itself by the number assigned to it. “Black”, the English word, is the name SCP-████ will use. SCP-████-a will refer to SCP-████ as such. It is also not to be referred to with any honorific than “-san”, as its preferences with titles towards it has yet to be documented. SCP-████-a and others familiar with SCP-████ will not use an honorific, and will use masculine gendered terms. Those who idolize SCP-████ as a fan will, under most circumstances, refer to SCP-████ as ‘Black-sama’. It does not appear to be a fan of this.
SCP-████ communicates in Japanese, but is observed to be fluent in any language presented to it. On-site personnel reported that it seems to be a huge fan of puns relating to demons. SCP-████ will communicate in English seemingly at random, and has a thick accent that aligns with a native Japanese speaker with English as a second language. Because of the inconsistency of the language SCP-████ will use at any given time, Dr. A. ███████████ must be present to translate SCP-████’s speech to English, or any language required by the current observing personnel.
SCP-████ is also protective of SCP-████-a, but does not express it often.
SCP-████-1 is a 38 cm tall humanoid being of unknown age and gender with an unbranded camera in place of a head. The camera makes up approximately half of SCP-████-1’s height. Its body is small, and it is usually observed wearing a full black suit with white gloves. It has one large lens on the front, a viewfinder to the side, and a small mouth located just below the camera lens. The mouth is capable of opening, but defaults to a smile showing its teeth. It declines to be x-rayed or have its anatomy further researched.
SCP-████-1 does not possess a vocabulary outside of ‘ジー’ (Ji). When communicating with SCP-████-1, SCP-████ must be present to translate. SCP-████ is the only entity capable of understanding SCP-████-1. Because of these circumstances, the timing of communications with SCP-████-1 are entirely dependent on SCP-████ agreeing to translate for a conversation.
SCP-████-1 is referred to by SCP-████ and SCP-████-a as ‘Camera-chan’. Despite the ‘-chan’ honorific, neither seem to be consistent in gendered terms for SCP-████-1. It does not appear to have a preference from responses translated by SCP-████. The only observed preference is a dislike for being called ‘Camera’ without the ‘-chan’ honorific. SCP-████-1 will become irritated by this, and SCP-████ will firmly correct the person who forgot or was observing the effect of leaving the honorific out. Continuing to call SCP-████-1 ‘Camera’ without permission by Dr C. C. is prohibited, as it will begin to incite an increasingly aggressive response by SCP-████.
SCP-████-1 and SCP-████ are extremely close, and generally refuse one-on-one communications with Foundation staff. Both must be present for interviews or any other routine checks with SCP-████ and/or SCP-████-1.
SCP-████-2 is a YouTube channel titled ブラックチャンネル (Black Channel), an account created on [DATE REDACTED]. There is a gap of █ years between the creation of the account and the first video uploaded. The first video on ‘Black Channel’ dates from 2021. SCP-████-2 originally hosted a video about SCP-████-a being chased by SCP-096, which has since been taken down by YouTube and the file placed on a USB stick, hereby referred to as SCP-████-3.
SCP-████-2 is well-loved by viewers, which extends to SCP-████. Comments will often contain messages of romantic comments towards SCP-████. SCP-████ appears to appreciate the attention, and will sometimes brag about the popularity of its content and self in general. The videos on SCP-████-2 have been recorded to be largely about exposing the hidden side of any given person through an extravagant contract, which SCP-████ will largely find a loophole in after the subject hadn’t read the contract in the first place.
SCP-████-3 is a USB storage stick containing a video of SCP-096 and SCP-████-a. It is unknown how SCP-████ breached the containment of SCP-096 in order to retrieve it for the video. Further investigation proves that the video was legitimate, and that the real SCP-096 was in fact present for the video and teleported back into containment afterwards.
SCP-████-a is a 130 cm tall Japanese 10 year old named Satoshi ██████. He attends ████████ Elementary, and is known by his peers as a generally unpopular student. SCP-████-a enjoys playing video games, and is permitted a game system when visiting any facilities. He expresses a lifelong dream of being a Youtuber, which is cited as the reason he began to collaborate SCP-████. Satoshi is extremely afraid of most SCP subjects currently in containment, and should not be exposed to any SCP not classified as Safe.
SCP-████-a was briefly contained after discovering the amount of contracts he had previously signed from SCP-████. Dr. C. C. ██████ observed him in a safe containment dormitory for 3 days before she decided he was safe to release back to his town of residence. SCP-████-a expressed fear that he would not be allowed to go home. When SCP-████ learned Satoshi was in containment, it began being more hostile to Foundation personnel. This ceased as soon as SCP-████-a was allowed to return to his home.
SCP-████ was first reported when a classmate of SCP-████-a’s caught a sighting of SCP-████ as they had a conversation after class. SCP-████, SCP-████-1, and SCP-████-a were rushed to Site 79 for observation and containment. SCP-████ initially breached containment and returned to its current living arrangement, but returned after 2 days of Satoshi being held in the facility to demand his release. SCP-████ threatened employees and began a lockdown situation on Floor B-█ of Site 79. Dr. A. ███████████ x and Dr. C. C. ██████ were able to placate SCP-████ by assuring him that SCP-████-a’s containment was not permanent, and he was merely being checked for any anomalies.
The Foundation reached an agreement with SCP-████ following a failed attempt at containment. SCP-████ was free to exist outside a containment site and do as it pleased, and can make videos depicting false copies of contained SCPs, as long as it never breaches any containment site to help a subject escape for a Youtube video. SCP-████ may continue to refer to the Foundation, but in a way that enforces the belief that these are staged and merely inspired by a fictional SCP Foundation. No real subjects are to be in future videos.
SCP-████ was asked to cease the harassment of a human named ██████ ████████████, referred to by the pseudonym ‘Blank’. SCP-████ broke down in laughter, and did not give a proper response. It also failed to accept the request. SCP-████-1 made its usual noise in a similar cadence to SCP-████’s laughter.
The following is a transcript between Dr C. C. and SCP-████, accompanied by SCP-████-1. Dr C. C. had scheduled a short meeting with SCP-████ to discuss his origins and anomalous abilities. SCP-████ agreed to converse in English beforehand.
Dr. C. C: Good morning, SCP-████. Are you ready for today’s interview?
SCP-████: [chuckles] I suppose I am~!
SCP-████-1: Ji!
Dr. C. C: Wonderful, wonderful. Before I begin-
SCP-████: Quite the doctor, are you now?
Dr. C. C: Guess I am.
SCP-████: [laughs] KAKAKA! Well, then tell me… Have you ever shown your knowledge online?
Dr C. C: Ah. Yes, I’m aware of your Youtube channel. I have to decline whatever you are about to offer, SCP-████.
SCP-████: Just call me Black, would you?
Dr C. C: I can’t do that for this interview. It’s being archived. Maybe in private.
SCP-████-1: Ji ji ji! Ji ji, ji!
SCP-████: That’s very true, Camera-chan!
Dr C. C: Would you mind translating that!
SCP-████: [laughs again] KAKAKA! Oh, no. No, I can’t do that.
SCP-████-1: Jiiii!
Dr. C. C: Why is that?
SCP-████: Oh, you wouldn’t like what Camera-chan is saying.
Dr. C. C: I see.
[SCP-████ pulls out a smartphone from no apparent source and checks it]
SCP-████: Hm, it seems Satoshi-kun needs me. I’ll talk to you later!
Dr. C. C: Wait, SCP-████, I didn’t get to-
[SCP-████ disappears alongside SCP-████-1.]
Notes:
1.
SCP-████ has been reclassified from Keter to Euclid under the request of Dr. A. ███████████, Dr J. ██████, and Dr. C. C. ██████. SCP-████ was initially classified as Keter due to its potential ability to cause considerable damage to Earth and/or humanity. After strenuous debate, it has been reclassified to Euclid after confirming a lack of hostility towards human life.
2.
SCP-████ is no longer classified as Euclid. A sadistic outlook on life, as well as an approach to Youtube videos, was observed by Dr. A. ███████████. SCP-████’s classification has been reevaluated following the disappearances of an unknown number of civilians in ██████, Japan. SCP-████ has since returned 3 of the missing people unharmed, but the subjects are visibly distressed when asked about their whereabouts, and will refuse to talk. Any civilians who were subject to SCP-████’s actions will be given mandatory wellness checks and regular mental health evaluations.
3.
SCP-████ and all subsets cannot be classified. Dr. C. C. ██████, following her decision to revoke any titles given to SCP-████, stepped down from her role as lead supervisor of activities relating to SCP-████ and all subsets. Dr. C. C. ██████ continues to communicate with SCP-████, but is not in charge of containment, official records, or any Foundation matters otherwise regarding SCP-████.
Upon resignation as lead supervisor for the observation and research of SCP-████, Dr. C. C. ██████ was asked why she continued to speak with SCP-████ and view the content of SCP-████-2.
“What can I say? It’s good entertainment!”
When asked about the pun, she declined to comment.
