Item #: SCP-6723

__Initial observations:__
* Child's body
* Doesn't decay
* Unusually large amt of dust
* Abnormally cold

__Background:__
* Child named Ruth Clark
* Cause of death still unknown?

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death if possible
* More about background

__Notes:__
I'm hoping this project goes better after all the drama last time. It should be simpler, at least. I'll just stick to the objectives.

I know I messed up, but being transferred to this site feels like a bit much. As far as I can tell, they really don't have many resources here. It just seems to be where the higher-ups dump things that aren't big or important. Despite the obvious lack of funding, though, my division head is in everyone's business, acting like the Foundation actually cares if we get this stuff done.

I'll be submitting material requests soon; have to think about what would help determine the whole not decaying thing.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death
* Background

__Ideas:__
* Autopsy
 * Pros: Quick compared to others, could provide insight into cause of death + possible anomalies
 * Cons: Destructive
* Seeding whole body w/ bacteria, fungus, etc
 * Pros: Provides insight into possible anomalies - can things grow?
 * Cons: Could be destructive, possibly time-consuming
* Growing bacteria, fungus, etc on sample
 * Pros: Provides insight into possible anomalies w/o damaging whole body, less time-consuming than whole body
 * Cons: Possibly less accurate - anomaly could be w/ whole body, possibly time consuming
* Messing w/ environment
 * Pros: Will find out how body reacts to different environments
 * Cons: Uses a lot of space, time consuming
* Monitoring temperature?
 * Pros: Unclear
 * Cons: Unclear

__Notes:__
I'll submit these ideas for approval and then request materials. I don't know if the temperature one would actually help anything, but Derek suggested it when I said the body was cold, so who am I to argue?

Apparently, I'm the only one on this project. I'm not complaining, but it feels weird after being at 19 for so long. At least this means there are fewer people that could mess this up for me.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death
* Background

__Notes:__
The sample idea got approved. If I don't get much in the way of results, I'll move on to seeding the whole body, which will, of course, complicate things a bit.

While I'm waiting on the Petri dishes, I'll look into Ruth's past; I'm curious as to whether there may have been someone in her life on our side of the veil. Maybe thaumaturgy?

Cutting out the samples was a bit difficult. Not in a physical way, but I kind of feel like I'm still being punished for my mistake. --even after losing--

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death
* Background

__Background info:__
* From small town
 * Redwick, PA
* Three siblings

__Condition:__
* No changes around the area that the sample was taken from.
* Dusty again

__Notes:__
I didn't have much luck in investigating her --backgru-- background online. I'll see if I can get anything with Foundation-based resources, but I doubt that they keep records on random people.

I cleaned off the dust since I was a bit worried about it accumulating in the sample area. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have done that; it could have interfered with the anomaly. I think it was more of a spur-of-the-moment thing.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death
* --Background--

__Background notes:__
* Average grades
* Parents seemed not to care much

__Condition:__
* No noticeable changes.

__Notes:__
Unsurprisingly, I didn't have much luck with Foundation resources, either. Derek told me to focus on the actual anomaly, so no more background research, I guess.

My hand kind of hurt when I woke up this morning. Nothing bad, but it's pretty itchy now. Hopefully, the thing didn't come back for my remaining hand.

I'm going to sample the dust and make sure it's not the --cas-- cause.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death

__Condition:__
* No noticeable --ca-- changes aside from dust accumulation.

__Notes:__
I was a bit nervous about looking into the dust after Derek's comments on my investigation, so I ended up not doing it.

Probably just me, but I kind of wish he'd stay out of everyone's business; he's not even a scientist.

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death

__Condition:__
* Dust

__Notes:__
I've mostly been waiting around today. Derek doesn't want me to work on anything but the actual anomaly, so just --st-- sitting around for me.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of --da-- death

__Condition:__
* Dusty

__Notes:__
I didn't do much at all today. Since I'll be checking the samples tomorrow, I'll ask about the dust.

I've been thinking about the incident from the last project, and I'm wondering if Derek knows. Hopefully not, but it would explain why he's been hovering over my shoulder so much.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death

__Trial 1:__
* Inconclusive results; no growth in control or test groups.

__Notes:__
I must have done something wrong, --sei-- seeing as nothing grew. I made sure to double-check everything for the second trial, so hopefully, whatever I did wrong won't come up again.

I failed to ask about the dust, but I did ask if they had any other --im-- information. It turns out they did a CT scan and failed to give me the report. Hopefully, I'll get it within the next few days.

__--Cn--__
__Condition:__
* Dusty

__Notes:__
I --ti-- think my migraines are starting to come back. It's unrelated to the case at hand, but I thought --t-- it was worth pointing out.

I was thinking about the incident again, and I realized my --mas-- mistake shouldn't have mattered as much as it did. So what if I didn't hear --se-- someone once? I have a good track record. I dealt with it quickly.

--Itm-- Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Reason it doesn't decay
* Cause of death

__Condition:__
* Dusty

__Scan results:__
The scan --R-- revealed mostly normal results, with a few --ec-- exceptions:
* Large foreign body
 * --Ha-- Heart may have transmuted into something --ini-- inorganic
* Numerous rib fractures
 * Believed to be postmortem

__Notes:__
I've been struggling a bit with writing; I think it has to do with the --migran-- migraines.

Derek is --str-- starting to nag me about results, which, of course, adds to the stress.

I just --hev-- have to keep doing this. Things will --ca-- change.

__Condition:__

__Notes:__
Uneventful with the project.

I'm really --str-- starting to hate it here. I have to ask for --bis-- basic equipment that should already be provided, not to mention Derek.

__Condition:__
* Dust

__Notes:__
I was feeling --sc-- sick yesterday, so I took the day off. I don't --acta-- actually feel much better today, but I can't --afo-- afford to take any more sick days. They --cu-- could think the infection came back.

__Trial 2:__
* --Incn-- Inconclusive results; no growth --in stuff-- in groups.

__Notes:__
Nothing grew again. I don't get --wht-- what I'm doing wrong. --Dr-- Derek says I have to pick up the pace, so this is the last trial of this, I --gus-- guess.

I'll figure --t-- out my next move when I'm --fell-- feeling better.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Stop

__Notes:__
I can't --remb-- remember what it's called, but I --no-- know what the dust is it's not dust. I think I get what's --hape-- happening. She --tru-- turns the things into the dust.

--My-- Maybe I'll --finly-- finally get transferred after this. I did it.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* Get out

__Notes:__
--Dr-- Derek is angry again. --Sy-- Says I should've thought --abu-- about it first. He doesn't get it. He's been --brath-- breathing down my neck since I got here. Of --curse-- course I'm getting migraines. Of course I'm sick. He's --ste-- stressing

I did what he told me to. He shouldn't be --agny-- angry.

Item #: SCP-6723

__Objectives:__
* out

__Notes:__
I --cn-- can't be done until I get everything done. He says I --hv-- have to tell him what it is. He doesn't think I did a good job.

I --jst-- just don't --remb-- remember what it's called. The thing. The thing is --frig-- fragile. It breaks.
