Experiment 011-A: The Role of Emotional Support During SCP-699 Experiences

Objective: To investigate how the presence of emotional support (e.g., friends or family) affects individuals' experiences in SCP-699.

Procedure:

Subject selection: Select pairs of individuals who are close friends or family members.

Experiment: One individual will enter SCP-699 alone, while the other remains outside to provide emotional support through communication (via intercom).

Observation: Assess how the presence of support affects the emotional well-being of the individual inside SCP-699.

Results:

Individuals with emotional support during their experience often report feeling less anxious and more grounded, allowing them to process their futures more effectively.

Those without support may experience heightened feelings of isolation, leading to stronger negative emotions and reluctance to share their experiences afterward.

The ability to communicate with a supportive individual appears to foster a sense of safety, encouraging deeper introspection and acceptance of outcomes.
