STORY BEAT; 𝑀𝑖𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑂𝑛𝑒.

“Osterholz  speaking,”  the  grim-faced  director  of  Site-φ  intones,  his  index  finger  lifting  off  a  button  on  the  intercom  system  built  into  his  large  desk.  The  square  device  is  an  abnormal  growth  on  the  bright  walnut  wood,  abstractly  toy-like  in  its  retro  curves  and  pops  of  teal  plastic  against  steel.

“Already?  According  to  the  reports,  some  of  MTF  Chi-00  haven’t  done  Combat  Assessments.”

Anyone  who  would  be  foolish  to  eavesdrop  on  the  Director’s  conversation  would  find  themselves  listening  in  on  a  one-sided  conversation.  Half  of  the  audio  is  seemingly  void  of  observable  sound.  The  Foundation  isn’t  one  so  easily  spied  on,  certainly  not  for  a  project  of  this  substantial  caliber.  Cognitohazards,  like  poisons,  have  beneficial  uses  as  well.

The  Director  shrugs  back  into  his  office  chair,  the  single  comfortable  thing  in  the  suite.  Buckley  Osterholz  is  a  hardy  man,  but  his  husband  Evan’s  insistence  on  an  ergonomic  chair  convinced  him  to  reconsider  the  long  nights  at  the  office.

(You’re  not  getting  any  younger,  Buckley.  Please  get  the  chair  for  me?)

Director  Osterholz  hasn’t  seen  Evan  in  years.

Osterholz  leans  forward  in  his  chair,  irked  by  the  Voice  That  Cannot  Be  Heard.  Damn  data-pushing  bureaucrats.  His  thick  mustache  waggles  as  he  schools  himself  into  indifference.

The  Director  replies  to  the  provocation,  “My  reasoning  is  you’re  not  really  giving  your  Golden  Boy  a  chance  here  to  prep  his  team,  and  yet  you  still  want — my  apologies,  it  wasn’t  my  intention to — that won’t be necessary.  I  understand  my  position  in  Operation:  THEMIS.  I’m  just not sure  that —  Hm.  Alright.  Understood. A  helicopter  will  be  readied  by  the  thirtieth.  When  can  I  expect  my  Communications  Department  to  receive  files  from  Headquarters?”

In  48  hours.

Osterholz  withholds  a  sigh.  With  decades  of  experience  commanding  Mobile  Task  Forces,  he  knows  when  something  is  grossly  underprepared.  If  Themis  hadn’t  taken  the  position  seriously  now,  they  would  have  to  learn  on  the  job.  He  just  hated  that  the  lesson  was  to  survive.

“Right,”  the  Director  says,  “I’ll  contact  𝑆𝑚𝑜𝑜𝑡ℎ  𝑂𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑟  and  Chi-00.”

He  reaches  over  and  clicks  the  button  again,  the  leftmost  in  a  row  of  five  on  the  intercom  system’s  panel.  Silence.  Absolute  silence  this  time  around.  Osterholz  finally  sighs,  slow  and  low.

(Deep  breaths,  Buckley,  deep  breaths.  You  know  what  the  Doc  said  about  your  blood  pressure.)

The  Director  unclips  his  pager  and  sends  a  mass  text  to  the  members  of  MTF  Chi-00.

Discovery

Item #: SCP-9584

Object Class: Safe Keter

Before containment, Happy Family Corp. had a 3.4-star rating on various business review sites. Negative reviews often cited that the venue was constantly listed as fully booked despite appearing empty on multiple days, odd or erratic behavior from staff, and notably, “The Happy Family Events Hall” was the last known location listed in various strange missing person reports. Police investigations into these reports have been dropped, specifying that no foul play is suspected.

Due to the peculiarity and frequency of these cases, Foundation personnel were instructed to investigate the Happy Family Corp. location in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. At the time of its original discovery, it was believed that SCP-9584’s anomalous behavior was tied to the Newmarket location; however, after it breached containment on 3/18/2024, that conclusion was proven false.

“The Happy Family Events Hall,” located at the Brookstone Mall Plaza in Hawkesbury, Ontario, Canada, opened on 3/19/2024. The property owners were contacted but could not give definite answers as to who had leased the space, citing that all transactions had been done via the Facebook “Marketplace” and PayPal. Investigations into the accounts in question did not lead to any useful results.

Summary of Previous Special Containment Procedures:

Due to the successful containment of the anomalous properties associated with SCP-9584 at its physical location in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada, the primary focus of the containment measures centers on the maintenance of the Masquerade Protocol and the minimization of civilian interest in the locality.

The property containing SCP-9584 was acquired by the █████████ ███████, a subsidiary of the Foundation. It has subsequently been reclassified as Outpost 716B due to the impracticality of relocation. Both the building and its parking area are now enclosed, inaccessible to the general public, and subject to continuous video surveillance. In addition, two (2) armed security personnel maintain round-the-clock vigilance, with rotating eight-hour shifts, to ensure the security of the premises.

The surroundings of Outpost 716B have been deliberately organized to minimize visibility from external vantage points. Construction equipment and materials have been strategically positioned in front of the numerous glass storefronts. A fabricated narrative has been disseminated, asserting that redevelopment activities at Outpost 716B were suspended by the Newmarket City Authority following the discovery of asbestos during a routine inspection. It is imperative that all personnel stationed at Newmarket consistently uphold this fabricated narrative when discussing Outpost 716B with civilians.

Besides these measures, Foundation web crawlers should continue monitoring The Happy Family Events Hall’s social media accounts for any possible breaches or mentions of the business by civilians in or outside Newmarket.

Mobile Task Force Psi-7 (“Home Improvement”), under the command of the Site Head Researcher Mink, has been designated as the primary unit responsible for maintaining containment procedures related to SCP-9584. Once every two (2) weeks, personnel stationed inside Outpost 716B must perform all duties per the Masquerade Protocol.

As the procedure of the Masquerade Protocol requires maintaining a constant cover story, D-Class testing is currently prohibited.

Following the successful implementation on ██/██/████, the utilization of D-Class operatives in the Masquerade Protocol has been sanctioned. However, owing to the volatile nature of SCP-9584, only exceedingly cooperative D-Class personnel should be considered for this role. It is strongly recommended that preference be given to D-Class with a proven background in performance arts when selecting candidates. In the absence of such individuals, those with a keen interest in acting, theater, or improv may serve as temporary alternatives until more suitable participants can be secured.

UPDATED - Revised Special Containment Procedures:

On 3/18/2024, a containment breach occurred, resulting in the reclassification of SCP-9584 to Keter status until further notice. The specific anomalous properties and inadequacies in the former containment protocols are presently undetermined.

A few days after, Foundation agents documented the rediscovery of SCP-9584 at the Brookstone Mall Plaza in Hawkesbury, Ontario, Canada. Following the acquisition of the property by a real estate Foundation Front, known as the █████████ Group, all remaining tenants were either evicted or bought out of their leases.

An encompassing perimeter around the property has been secured with fencing and is currently subject to 24-hour video surveillance. Two (2) distinct guard stations have been established at opposite ends of the property, ensuring the presence of at least one (1) guard at each post at all times. Additionally, a minimum of two (2) guards perform patrols of the grounds during eight-hour shifts. It is imperative that security personnel stationed at the guard posts deny access to SCP-9584 to civilians. Security are to justify this action by citing safety concerns arising from ongoing construction activities.

Foundation personnel dressed as construction crews will simulate working on the property from 0600 to 1900 hours. Construction equipment and materials have been strategically placed around the property to limit visibility from outside the perimeter. Additionally, a false storefront has been constructed in front of SCP-9584’s entrance to disguise the coming and going of MTF units and researchers.

Any unauthorized individuals approaching SCP-9584 claiming to have RSVP’d to an event at the “Happy Family Events Hall” should be detained for further questioning by Lead Researcher Kowalsky, and auditing Containment Specialist Solanki.

MTF Sigma-5 ("'; DROP TABLE taskforces --") has been tasked with monitoring and containing SCP-9584 online presence on social media sites until SCP-9584 can be fully re-contained. Members of MTF Kappa-10 (“Skynet”) and MTF Mu-4 (“Debuggers”) have also been contacted to assist in locating small business social media pages that SCP-9584 has infiltrated.

Description:

SCP-9584 denotes all anomalous phenomena and entities associated with the Happy Family Corp., including its members, its physical location, and its online presence on social media websites.

The Happy Family Corp. is a small event-hosting business that exhibits a currently unknown spatial and memetic anomalous effect. SCP-9584 spontaneously manifests in small towns in commercially zoned properties that are abandoned or not in use. However, it appears that SCP-9584 will only materialize in one location at a time. Investigations into how SCP-9584 gains control of these locations are ongoing.

Once SCP-9584 appears in a location, it will begin advertising its venue on local social media pages. It will then search for social media groups or communities that focus on networking and building comradery among the local privately owned businesses. In the case that no such pages exist, SCP-9584 will create one. SCP-9584 will then insert itself into these communities and build rapport with civilian businesses, frequently interacting with their social media posts, leaving positive reviews on their pages, and recommending them to their own following. Once SCP-9584 has built goodwill in these communities, it will begin posting “open invite” get-togethers at its own storefront. Though the reason SCP-9584 facilitates these gatherings is still under investigation, it seems to specifically target small business owners and those who these types of companies may employ.

Once a group of at least 6 (six) people has RSVP’d to an SCP-9584 gathering, the next phase of its anomalous behavior begins. These events are designated as 9584-α events and proceed as follows:

One (1) hour before guests arrive, SCP-9584 begins a “warm-up” phase to prepare the location for visitors. Humanoid entities, designated as SCP-9584-A, dressed in the uniform standard for waiting for staff in black tie events, begin to appear from “Employees Only” rooms.

These instances of SCP-9584-A will begin to prepare the events hall for guests. Although the layout changes from location to location, the inclusion of a buffet-style spread, sitting areas, and a small stage have been observed in both confirmed instances of SCP-9584.

At the hour mark, two (2) instances of SCP-9584-A will unlock SCP-9584 and wait near the door. Once guests begin to arrive, these instances of SCP-9584-A will greet any person approaching SCP-9584, ask for a name, and then cross-reference a guest list before allowing them to enter.

All other instances of SCP-9584-A will stand near the stage until guests filter in. They will then beginning to perform duties standard to waiting staff. Outside of initial greetings, general pleasantries and anything necessary to complete their work, instances of SCP-9584-A will not speak unless spoken to.

Guests are allowed to socialize for roughly 2-3 hours before their attention is directed to the stage area. An instance of SCP-9584-A, dressed in formal clothing, will introduce themselves as a member of “The Happy Family” and thank everyone in attendance for coming. It then will give a speech for no more than 15 minutes, speaking of the importance of family and community and how theses topics are vital to running a successful business.

This instance of SCP-9584-A will conclude its speech by welcoming the guests to its “Happy Family” and will request a final round of applause. Once the speech has concluded, it will mingle with the guests until the event’s scheduled end.

Approximately 20 minutes before the event’s conclusion, a random "wait staff" instance of SCP-9584-A will go to the stage and alert guests that the event is coming to a close. It will then encourage attendees to take as much of the remaining food as they’d like.

Following the exit of the last civilian guest, SCP-9584 will go through a “cool down” phase. An instance of SCP-9584-A will lock SCP-9584’s doors, and then all instances will proceed to collect and clean the events hall. Once finished, all instances of SCP-9584-A will disappear via the “Employee Only” rooms.

Addendum-01:

If fewer than 6 (six) people have RSVP’d, SCP-9584 will manifest instances of SCP-9584-A to fill the guest list until there are at least fifteen (15) “guests” in total. Instances of SCP-9584-A vary widely in age, ethnicity, and gender. It should be noted that these entities bear a striking resemblance to missing persons reported in locations where a prior instance of SCP-9584 is suspected or confirmed to have occurred. However, at this time it is unclear whether or not these manifestations have any relation to these missing persons other than the visual resemblance, as no instance of SCP-9584-A has been removed from inside of SCP-9584. Until further research can be conducted, the question of whether SCP-9584-A are created by SCP-9584 or if they are gathered by some other means cannot be conclusively answered.

INTERVIEW LOG-9584-1:

On ██/██/████, Lieutenant Grant Zhao of the Newmarket, ON RCMP was interviewed to provide insight regarding some of the missing persons reports associated with SCP-9584. Lieutenant Zhao was informed that this interview would be used as part of a true crime podcast focusing on missing persons in Ontario.

Interviewer: Agent Marcus De Smit.

[BEGIN LOG.]

Interviewer: Before we begin, I would like to thank you again for taking the time to conduct this interview with us, Lieutenant Zhao. Lieutenant Zhao: Just make sure this doesn’t get tied back to me, yeah? Interviewer: Of course. My colleagues and I pride ourselves on our commitment to secrecy. Lieutenant Zhao: Okay, just know that I’ll hold you to that to the full extent of the law if we get any more harassment over this, you hear? Interviewer: Sure. Let’s start with the first question, shall we? Could you explain why your precinct has stopped investigating the missing persons reports associated with The Happy Family Events Hall? Lieutenant Zhao: It’s simple. It’s not our job to assist with civil disputes. Especially if no crime has been committed. Interviewer: I see. A lot of the families would disagree with you on that. Do you have any reason to believe the theory that these missing persons are being held against their will? Lieutenant Zhao: [Laughs] No, nothing would make me jump to that conclusion. And, despite what the public may think, the police have no legal right to detain an adult just because their family and friends disagree with a choice they made. Interviewer: What do you think of Mr. █████████'s claims that The Happy Family is a cult and they brainwashed his brother? Lieutenant Zhao: It's pure speculation and I cannot comment on it either way. But even if "The Happy Family" is a cult, there aren’t any laws against those existing if there is no probable cause that a crime is being committed. There’s nothing we can do, legally speaking. [Pause] I know that this isn’t the answer those families wanna hear, but they have to come to terms with the facts, and the fact is that those “missing people” [Lieutenant Zhao lifts his hands to perform “air quotes”] are where they want to be. A legal adult cannot be “missing” if they’re of sound mind and left on their own accord. Interviewer: Okay, that’s all we needed for today. Thank you for your time, lieutenant.

[END LOG.]

Addendum-02:

After various expeditions inside of SCP-9584, it appears that all instances of SCP-9584-A will remain docile unless they witness guests engage in majorly disruptive behavior to 9584-α events. It should be noted that the response carried out by instances of SCP-9584-A varies based on the seriousness of the offense, and they will attempt to de-escalate before becoming hostile. However, once an instance of SCP-9584-A is in a hostile state, all other instances will also show hostility towards the same target, regardless of whether they were present for the instigating action. How individual instances communicate information to each other without speaking is currently unknown at this time.

The behavior known to trigger an aggressive response from instances of SCP-9584-A is as follows:

Engaging in instances of SCP-9584-A or another guest in a physical act of aggression. This includes threatening or attempting to Intimidate instances of SCP-9584-A or another guest.

Attempting to enter any area of SCP-9584 that is marked as “Employee Only” or otherwise inaccessible to guests.

Attempting to remove an instance of SCP-9584-A from SCP-9584.

Attempting to disrupt the speech given near the end of the event or purposely damaging property inside of SCP-9584.

All instances of SCP-9584-A will remain hostile toward a target until that target leaves or is removed from SCP-9584. This aggression continues if the same target attempts to reenter SCP-9584 during the same expedition. While SCP-9584-A is not immediately hostile to a “banned” target if they attempt to enter SCP-9584 on a different day, the target will be barred from entering SCP-9584. SCP-9584-A will become immediately hostile if any attempt is made to enter by a “banned” target.

Addendum-03:

MASQUERADE PROTOCOL

Foundation personnel in groups of no less than five (5) and no more than fifteen (15) must enter SCP-9584 dressed in formal civilian clothing. These personnel members are equipped with communication devices and visual/audio recording devices that constantly relay a live feed to Outpost 716B.

Foundation staff deployed into SCP-9584 are required to participate as a guest and may not exit SCP-9584 until the event's conclusion or if they are asked to do so by an instance of SCP-9584-A.

All personnel scheduled to enter SCP-9584 will be given an individual cover story prior to deployment. While engaging in conversation with each other or any instances of SCP-9584-A, it is imperative that these cover stories are maintained for the entire duration of the expedition.

While inside of SCP-9584, personnel may partake in the food and refreshments provided by SCP-9584 as testing has shown that these items are not anomalous. Additionally, instances of SCP-9584-A have shown signs of agitation if the provisions provided remain untouched by guests.

Once the speech begins, personnel should give it their utmost attention and must refrain from speaking unless prompted to by the instance of SCP-9584-A giving the speech. Polite laughter and clapping when appropriate are highly encouraged.

After being alerted that 20 minutes remaining before the conclusion of the event, Foundation personnel may begin to exit SCP-9584 at staggered times.

Incident Case No: 562

Description: 

On 3/18/2024, after █ years of containment, SCP-9584 violently breached containment. The source of the breach remains unknown, however, four (4) D-Class Masquerade Protocol Agents, five (5) Security Officers, two (2) Staff Researchers, and one (1) Containment Specialist, all from MTF Psi-7 (“Home Improvement”), were found dead. Five (5) Psi-7 operatives have been reported Missing in Action (MIA). After the breach, MTF Psi-7 Site Head Researcher Mink documented that Outpost 716B and the Newmarket location had lost all anomalous properties.

Then, on 3/19/2024, email newsletters circulated to local businesses in a 5 km radius around Unit [REDACTED] at the Brookstone Mall Plaza in Hawkesbury, Ontario, Canada. All visiting online traffic have been intercepted by data officers from MTF Sigma-5 ("'; DROP TABLE taskforces --"), MTF Kappa-10 (“Skynet”), and MTF Mu-4 (“Debuggers”).

The following individuals registered for the social networking event to be held on 3/31/2024:

A used-car emporium dealer

A family-owned furniture store manager

A food truck owner

A tax accountant

A wedding planner

A repair shop owner

A landscaper

A dogwalker

A bed and breakfast owner

A bookshop owner

These local entrepreneurs were detained by Foundation agents on 3/19/2024, and have been relocated to safe houses for monitoring and further questioning.

MTF Psi-7, upon the discovery of the new SCP-9584 location, sent MTF Corporal Dieter Karter to Hawkesbury, ON, with reinforcements. The team initiated an armed combat search and rescue (CSAR) mission on 3/19/2024 at roughly 9:40 PM local time.

Supervising the mission from the outside command point, Cpl. Karter reported "hostile activity" from SCP-9584. There was a skirmish leading to gunfire. Three (3) rescue team members, namely Task Force Operative Massimo Vito Niccolo, the five-man party's Captain, became MIA; however, there were no casualties. The two remaining members cited to "not remember" what happened inside, seemed to be a trance-like state for a few hours after. They have been sent to monitoring.

On 3/20/21, Cpl. Karter requested backup personnel and a Class 10 weapons ordnance. The Ethics Committee denied the ordnance but granted extra personnel. A second rescue attempt, involving 10 members, took place on 3/21/2024 but was met with failure. Task Force Operative Lucia Inès Muñoz was reported MIA.

The Foundation's Department of Internal Affairs assigned Containment Specialist Vihaan Solanki to the site on 3/22/2024, after the sudden medical collapse of Site Head Researcher Mink. Solanki's review of the third rescue attempt on 3/23/2024 were reported to Internal Affairs without the knowledge of Cpl. Dieter.

Addendum-1A:

[The following are transcribed text messages from Containment Specialist Vihaan Solanki's cell phone on 3/23/2024.]

[End of transcription]

- 11:13 PM: overlooking their self-made reports, i am unsure if they [MTF Psi-7] are following masquerade protocol...

- 11:18 PM: tried to talk to the cpl again about what happened in the initial breach. very little data and sparse notes, which is unlike dr. mink. no d-class around personnel since then.

- 11:31 PM: the cpl is not interested when i say that we should re-examine the location, what changed from the previous iteration, why there aren't any casualties after the initial breach from the newmarket location. something happened in the first breach that is affecting the behavior of scp-9584, i'm sure of it

- 11:32 PM: by the way this rescue mission did not have any MIAs, which i am thankful for. i told cpl. we should stop going into SCP-9584 for the time being. the rescue team is exhausted and says they do not remember what happened inside. but cpl is obsessed with getting his people back asap. wants to get them before "brainwashing."

- 11:39 PM: will try to implement my proposed containment procedures without cpl. scp-9584 isn't "hostile" as the cpl reported, but i don't know if this will last if we keep poking at it.

Containment Specialist Solanki's proposed Containment Procedures were unsuccessful. Solanki decided, with Foundation approval, message SCP-9584 and schedule a business meeting on 3/24/2024, ahead of the 3/31/2024 Social Networking Event.

However, MTF Psi-7 were notified due to a miscommunication with MTF Sigma-5. Cpl. Dieter did not agree to Solanki going in alone and assigned him a task force operative to accompany as a bodyguard when "meeting" SCP-9584.

Solanki entered the location at 1:24 PM local time with his chaperone. However, SCP-9584's instances did not appear, and both Solanki and the bodyguard exited the site within an hour. Solanki did not experience any brain fog, however his bodyguard reported not to remember any events.

Cpl. Dieter reported Containment Specialist Solanki for "needlessly endangering the mission" and requested his removal for insubordinate behavior, whereas Solanki requested the Foundation to re-assign the Cpl. Dieter as the Head Commanding Officer.

On █/█/████, the Ethics Committee contacted Site-φ Director Buckley Osterholz, assigning the auditing task to MTF Chi-00 ("The Broken Scales of Themis").

They are to arrive on-site of SCP-9584 on 3/31/2024.
