Under no circumstance is food allowed to be brought into any Foundation break room. Any Site that suffers a manifestation is mandated by the Overseer Council to enact Procedure Calvin-03 on all applicable staff. If any SCP-9096 manifestation occurs, the 9096 Response Force led by Senior Researcher Dr. Parminder is to search for any and all corresponding 9096-1 Events with the full compliance of any and all possibly related Foundation Department or Task Force. MTF Gamma-20 "Lunch Thieves" is to be the primary Task Force when applicable. **Description:** SCP-9096 consists of a global phenomenon where food items disappear when unobserved in any room considered by any occupant to be a break room. Along with each disappearance, comes a related SCP-9096-1 event somewhere else in the world. Efforts are currently underway at Site-96 to uncover a pattern to 9096-1 Events (See Addendum 9096.2). ------ Post-Piso Investigation Document 3A (**FOR OVERSEER EYES ONLY**) The following is a transcript of a section of Parminder’s Personal Log, labelled ‘Stream of Consciousness 08/30’. It was recovered with her belongings directly following Incident Piso-02. [[div class="blockquote"]] This is all happening too fast. I didn’t think it would come to this. I just wanted out of that site. Having something published could help get my name out there, get me transferred somewhere better. There weren’t any real projects to work on and show my skill. So I just had to get creative. I didn’t do anything wrong. Why did it become real? I thought Lindsey would want a way out too; why was she trying to make things hard for me? Has she really not changed in the past five years at this site? All we shared, and all that set us apart, shouldn’t our dark times and bright memories balance out to gray by now? Do I even believe that? The Site Director came in, he had looked over the tests and believed in my research. He believed in me, and so did most of the staff. That’s a variable, it changed from those first tests. Dear god, I made a Keter. And I’m responsible for stopping it. [[/div]] ------ **Addendum 9096.1:** Log of Notable 9096-1 Events. [[div class="blockquote"]] Red meat in Site-23 break room refrigerator vanished. [[[scp-610|SCP-610]]] instances emerged throughout the city of Vladivostok, contaminating shipping leaving the port. Various dispatched MTF units have yet to secure the affected areas, casualties/assimilated unknown. [[/div]] [[div class="blockquote"]] A ‘Coca Cola’ soft drink bottle in Site-31 vanished. Belina Beverages Coca Cola Plant in Ireland experiences severe time dilation, producing an estimated 14 giga-liters of anomalously condensed Coca Cola fluid in twelve minutes of consensus time. Upon re-entry to the consensus time stream, condensation failed and the resultant flash flooding spread across western Ireland, casualties estimated at over ten-thousand. [[/div]] [[div class="blockquote"]] Hard-boiled egg in Site-08 break room vanished. Spontaneous celebrations erupt across the island of New Ireland in Papua New Guinea; hundreds of [[[scp-3199|SCP-3199]]] eggs manifest and are painted the colors of Ireland by the inhabitants. [[/div]] //Eight Sites have already failed the Containment Procedures. I wish there was another method, but Calvin-03 is the only way to be certain they won't re-offend.// - Senior Researcher Parminder. [[div class="blockquote"]] ‘Warheads’ candy in Site-69 vanishes. The onsite warhead in the model of Site-96 present in Site Director Shane Matthew’s office detonates. Severely damaging the room and killing him instantly. [[/div]] (Last updated 9/5/25) **Addendum 9096.2:** Site-96 Administrative Update. Alongside his personal effects, an unsent correspondence by Director Matthew to the 05 Council was recovered. The correspondence recommended the promotion of Senior Researcher Shirley Parminder to the office of Site Director for Site-96, in the event of his further promotion, transfer out from Site-96, or demise. This recommendation, alongside her valiant work in combating SCP-9096, has led to a unanimous decision by the Department of Promotion and Personnel Management to award the newly-opened position of Director Site-96 to Senior Researcher Shirley Parminder. ------ Post-Piso Investigation Document 8B (**FOR OVERSEER EYES ONLY**) The following is a transcript of a section of Parminder’s Personal Log, labelled ‘Why?’. It was recovered from her belongings following Incident Piso-02. [[div class="blockquote"]] After the brief ceremony, I closed the office door and collapsed. I’m not sure how long I was out, but it was 3:15 PM when the attendant knocked to remind me to activate my new permissions. I have no clue why Matthews would choose me to succeed him. Especially since Lindsey’s been talking with him since she got back from her leave only a few days ago. She’s been avoiding me, and hasn’t caused any incidents since she got back, but something still feels off. I think she’s up to something. Regardless, I have worse to worry about. 9096 has intensified, more than a dozen incidents in the last week. Each and every one of them has had some outsized effect on the world. And for each one, I have to put the Site under the Procedure. It kills a part of me every time I sign the order. With my new permissions, I can see the 05 Council is considering preemptively rolling it out to every Site. But there is another proposal I can see, which looks much, much worse. Shit's fucked.

She proceeded to disabled all internal 9096-Response Force communications and barricade herself in her office. This is predicted to slow the operational rollout by thirty to forty minutes. A mediator has been sent to find out the reasoning for this sudden opposition, and convince Parminder to surrender. The following is a transcript of the interaction. [[div class="blockquote"]] [BEGIN LOG] //The sound of knocking is audible.// **Director Parminder:** I’m staying right here. I won’t let you erase the memories of the whole world because of my mistakes. //Knocking is repeated.// **Director Parminder:** I don’t care if it costs me my career or my life. //Lindsey’s voice is heard through the door.// **Dr. Lindsey:** So you can have principles. Honestly shocking. **Director Parminder:** Lindsey? They sent you? **Dr. Lindsey:** Not that it will matter much. **Director Parminder:** I’m not coming out, you can’t make me. **Dr. Lindsey:** You’ll find we can, This is a pointless fight Shirley, you won’t stop Alpha-12 from going through. You won’t even manage to lose your career, much less your life. //Silence.// **Director Parminder:** What do you mean by that? **Dr. Lindsey:** Oh, I almost forgot. I was sent here to read a message from the Council. //Lindsey clears her throat.// **Dr. Lindsey:** Site-96 Director, Shirley Parminder. You have disobeyed direct orders, and disrespected the authority of the Council. In light of the stress you must be experiencing due to your rapid ascension in responsibility, the punishment for your outburst will be two weeks of paid administrative leave. Signed, the Overseer Council. //Director Parminder shouts.// **Director Parminder:** What do you mean two weeks of paid administrative leave? **Dr. Lindsey:** You really don’t know what’s going on here, huh. I thought this little stunt meant you had figured it out, but clearly not. **Director Parminder:** Explain. Right now. **Dr. Lindsey:** You must know your authority now is tentative at best, right? Well either way, I can’t resist. You’ve been so helpful for the Council, this is you spending all of your good will. **Director Parminder:** How so? I lied to them, I caused the belief leading to this! **Dr. Lindsey:** That’s exactly why. You’ve given them exactly the excuse they’ve been looking for to selectively wipe everyone’s memories. Trust me, break rooms won’t be the end of it. The civilian world, but much more importantly, everyone in the Foundation will be subject to the gas. The Ethics Committee, the Department Heads, anyone and everyone who could cause a problem. And as a plus, personnel won’t take breaks anymore. **Director Parminder:** This can’t be… How do you even know all of this, and what makes you think you won’t suffer for it as well? **Dr. Lindsey:** Oh that’s simple, I made the gas. What else is an amnestic expert supposed to do with so much free time and powerful friends? //The sound of gas entering through the vents is audible.// **Director Parminder:** Why are you even telling me this? **Dr. Lindsey:** Finally, the question I was waiting for you to ask. Because I HATE you. I want to hear your cries of disbelief before my greatest creation leaves you an unquestioning puppet. The creation YOUR report to the Ethics Committee sidelined until I made some friends in high places. I want you to know this is happening because YOU let it. **Director Parminder:** About that. I’ve got some bad news for you. **Dr. Lindsey:** And what would that be? **Director Parminder:** The Site Director's office has a gas mask, and I’ve been recording this whole time. **Dr. Lindsey:** I put a hole in the gas mask when I forged the message saying Shane Matthews wanted you to replace him. //Silence.// **Director Parminder:** This is why no one likes you. ------ [END LOG] [[/div]] No further conversation was recorded. The room was breached 18 minutes later, finding Director Parminder unconscious. The previous audio recording was found on her personal device, it is currently not believed to have been sent elsewhere. **Addendum 9096.6:** Afterword from Site Director Parminder. The threat of SCP-9096 is definitively gone. The concept it relied on, whatever it was, is now entirely absent from the human Psychospace. Everything from when we were dealing with SCP-9096 is pretty hazy to me, since most of my time thinking about it involved a concept humanity doesn't have anymore. I’m very grateful we managed to get that Class L Amnestic gas before it was too late. The ability to, without much fuss, remove single concepts or ideas from people’s heads will be very useful. In other news, reported personnel workplace satisfaction, and well-being at Site-96 are all down. In light of this news, we will be offering free sub-conscious mental health counseling to all personnel on Calvin-02 or higher employment plans. There's work to be done, and we only have all your time to do it.
