Incident Report: Unauthorized Testing (Dr. Sebastian Dupont)
Date: 4/7/09
Location: Site-44, Staff Break Room
Involved Personnel: Dr. Sebastian Dupont
Description: Dr. Sebastian Dupont, a researcher with knowledge of SCP-7547's properties, engaged in unauthorized testing by placing SCP-7547 on their upper lip in a joking manner in the staff break room. The transformation process occurred as expected, but the resulting glass mustache fell and shattered before retrieval. This incident highlights the risks associated with unauthorized testing and the importance of adherence to containment procedures.
Test Log 1: 4/8/09
Subject: D-4321
Procedure: D-4321 is instructed to place SCP-7547 on their upper lip.
Results: D-4321 underwent rapid transformation into glass, starting from the upper lip and spreading downward. Slow-motion footage revealed a visual effect resembling thick glass breaking in reverse. The newly formed instance of SCP-7547, created from D-4321, is stored in a separate felt-lined box.
Notes: The transformation process seems to be irreversible.

START LOG
Site Director Alex House: Good evening, Dr. Sampang. I understand there have been significant developments in this project?
Dr. Robert Sampang: Yes, indeed, sir.
Site Director Alex House: We're currently in the process of creating a training video about this anomaly. Could you provide some insights?
Dr. Robert Sampang: Certainly. Let me start with the more hazardous aspects.
Site Director Alex House: Please do.
Dr. Robert Sampang: For our initial test, we set up in a padded room due to the SCP's fragility. The mustaches were placed on the upper lip, and the transformation occurred almost instantaneously. In the slow-motion footage, it looked like thick glass forming in reverse.
Site Director Alex House: Fascinating. Is there more?
Dr. Robert Sampang: Yes, there was one peculiar incident worth mentioning…
Dr. Robert Sampang: In a less formal setting, one of our researchers, Dr. Sebastian Dupont, placed SCP-7547 on their upper lip as a joke in the staff break room. The transformation occurred, but the resulting mustache fell and shattered before retrieval.
Site Director Alex House: A regrettable situation. Thank you, Dr. Sampang, for sharing this information.

Training Video Script
[BEGIN SCRIPT]
Narrator (Voiceover): Welcome to the SCP-7547 Training Video. In this video, we will provide an overview of SCP-7547, its properties, and containment procedures.
[Cut to footage of SCP-7547 in containment]
Narrator (Voiceover): SCP-7547 is a collection of glass objects resembling thick, handlebar-styled mustaches. These mustaches have unique properties, but they are also fragile and must be handled with care.
[Cut to footage of a subject undergoing transformation]
Narrator (Voiceover): When placed on the upper lip, SCP-7547 causes a rapid transformation of the subject into glass, starting from the upper lip and spreading downward. This transformation is irreversible.
[Cut to footage of containment procedures]
Narrator (Voiceover): Containment is vital. SCP-7547 must be stored securely, and unauthorized testing is strictly prohibited.
[Cut to footage of Dr. Sebastian Dupont's incident]
Narrator (Voiceover): The incident involving Dr. Dupont serves as a reminder of the risks associated with unauthorized testing.
[Cut to footage of testing procedures]
Narrator (Voiceover): Testing is only permitted under the supervision of Dr. Robert Sampang, who heads the research under SCP-7547.

Test Log 2: 4/14/09
Subject: D-5432
Procedure: D-5432 is instructed to place SCP-7547 on their upper lip.
Results: D-5432 underwent rapid transformation into glass, starting from the upper lip and spreading downward. Slow-motion footage revealed a visual effect resembling thick glass breaking in reverse. The newly formed instance of SCP-7547, created from D-5432, was dropped by Dr. Robert Sampang and was destroyed before it could be placed in containment.
Notes: Fragments should be tested on.
Test Log 3: 4/16/09
Subject: D-8694
Procedure: D-8694 is instructed to place SCP-7547 on their upper lip.
Results: D-8694 underwent rapid transformation into glass, starting from the upper lip and spreading downward. Slow-motion footage revealed a visual effect resembling thick glass breaking in reverse. The newly formed instance of SCP-7547, created from D-8694, shattered into fragments before retrieval.
Notes: The transformation process continues to be irreversible.
Test Log 4: 4/19/09
Subject: D-6855
Procedure: D-6855 is instructed to place SCP-7547 on their upper lip.
Results: D-6855 underwent rapid transformation into glass, starting from the upper lip and spreading downward. Slow-motion footage revealed a visual effect resembling thick glass breaking in reverse. The newly formed instance of SCP-7547, created from D-6855, shattered into fragments before retrieval.
Notes: The transformation process continues to be irreversible.
Test Log 5: 4/25/09
Subject: D-5737
Procedure: Shards from a previously created instance of SCP-7547, originating from Test Log 2, are placed on the upper lip of D-5737.
Results: No observable transformation occurred. The shards remained inert, and D-5737 showed no signs of transformation into glass.
Notes: It appears that the shards of SCP-7547, once separated from a complete mustache, do not possess the same anomalous properties and do not induce the transformation effect.
Recovery Log: 3/29/09
Location: A small log cabin in rural suburbs near London, United Kingdom.
Description: On the night of 3/29/09, local authorities received multiple noise complaints from residents near the cabin. Reports described sounds of glass shattering and unusual human forms made of glass. Due to ongoing law enforcement operations, authorities were unable to respond promptly.
Subsequently, the SCP Foundation detected anomalous activity and dispatched Mobile Task Force Beta-7 ("Maz Hatters") to investigate the situation. Upon arrival at the location, MTF Beta-7 discovered the anomalous activity and observed that the original instances of SCP-7547 were stored neatly in a cabinet, while the other instances had broken.
MTF Beta-7 secured the original instances and initiated containment procedures. The surviving individuals, three teenagers—John Hoover, Liam Hoover, and Emily Davis, provided insight into the events of that night. They reported witnessing four of their friends using the mustaches and subsequently turning into glass figures. The glass figures were described as unresponsive and resembling the original instances of SCP-7547. Fearing for their safety, the three teenagers sought refuge in a concealed area of the building until the arrival of MTF Beta-7.
The surviving teenagers were mistakenly not administered amnestics and released. The original instances of SCP-7547 were transported to Site 44 for containment.
Notes: All three surviving teenagers would later become Foundation personnel and move to Site-44. Unfortunately, Emily Davis, one of the teenagers, was killed in a containment breach incident while serving as a security guard. The two brothers, John Hoover and Liam Hoover, pursued careers in Foundation research eventually coming to SCP-7547 research after their origins were discovered.
