Meanwhile at The White House

Spoiler: The A.R.R.. (click to show/hide)

"well, it would help reinforce the cover that we ARE a contractor, but I am worried that one of you might do something stupid, like our researcher just did. Go ahead with setting up facilities."

He'd move over to his researcher with a worried gaze.
"Researcher, I do hope you sent any existing knowledge of the anomaly with it, because otherwise you just put the entire US government in danger. It's not the end of the world though if you did, as this might be the perfect chance to gain some government funding from the Department of Defense and Homeland Security. Get me a line to your senator friend, so I can give a excuse as to why this is being shipped, and some backstory as to how we acquired it."

He would leave the grunts tasked with digging to finish the job, and visit the abductee.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have taken you from your normal life, but I need your help. My job is to try and keep strange things off the streets and the public safe from them. I'm willing to try and make your home here as comfortable as possible, but we need to bring Mattie here to keep her out of danger, and ensure that she can't harm anyone by mistake.
If you'll agree to it, I'll provide a cover-up saying you decided to move out to the Virginia mountains. I'll even allow family visits, so that you can at least keep in touch with them while you help us care for and learn more about Mattie.

Grunts: Gas masks and fire extinguishers. No military this time, please.
Agents:Get some more leads whenever you feel up to the task.
Researcher: Could you make something that stops fire? We really need that bunker.

"Uh... Magma fish... Does it cool down...? Maybe... Steam power... Need money.."

Desperately attempt to convey the idea of using the magma carp as a heat source for a steam-based power plant, or maybe a desalination plant. Have the researcher test the carp's thermodynamics. If using the carp for profit somehow seems feasible, call up some shady contacts who might be willing to invest in such a prospect. Stress to them the need for discretion, and set up a conglomerate front solely for SADCom.

See if the agents had sonething important to say. Listen as patiently as a naturally impatient hungover businessman can.

Keep working with Steve with 1 Agent.  Get info on terrorists.  Explain when he is, but that he can't go back just yet.  Can we get a DNA sample?  5 grunts also see if they can get a DNA sample from the known real Steve.  Or dental records, anything to corroborate his story.

1 Agent and 5 Grunts work with the family.  What's going on with that kid?
1 Researcher, 1 Agent, and 5 Grunts keep working on the glyphs.  Send a message back; express desire to communicate and learn.
1 Agent and 5 Grunts dig deeper on SCP-4.  Can the table be swapped to another room?  Does the effect persist and affect the owner of the new room?

[FallacyofUrist]

... you should probably fix that, Toaster. Quote and spoiler error.

Bloops.

Spoiler: RANCOR (click to show/hide)

Four agents capture SCP-3. Remaining ones look for more SCPs.

Grunts build a containment attraction and researchers research the newly acquired anomaly.

[FallacyofUrist]

It might be worth noting that I keep some notes on what SCPs the players of this game have- and those notes are not currently accessible to me. I should be able to make new turns in a few days or so.

[FallacyofUrist]

And my notes are now accessible to me earlier than I expected. If you want a turn, just yell at me a bit.

Turn Eleven: And I Return!

"Well, it would help it would help reinforce the cover that we ARE a contractor, but I am worried that one of you might do something stupid, like our researcher just did. Go ahead with setting up facilities."
(4) You notice what looks like a small office building rising into the air. Your blokes are incredibly quick at building, apparently. (gain contractor's office building, rather small, single floor)

You turn to your Researcher. He turns pale and explains he didn't send any knowledge of the anomaly with it.
Dangit.
(2) And he explains that his "senator friend" is off somewhere- he doesn't know where- and isn't currently accessible. Dangit.

(4+1=5) A thunk fills the air. It seems the second floor construction has been completed.

You then locate yourself to the now conscious anomalous man.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have taken you from your normal life, but I need your help. My job is to try and keep strange things off the streets and the public safe from them. I'm willing to try and make your home here as comfortable as possible, but we need to bring Mattie here to keep her out of danger, and ensure that she can't harm anyone by mistake.

The man breaks into tears. "That's the thing. Mattie died! She's been dead for a few days now!"
Huh.

You issue some orders to your Grunts.

(3) A day later, a few packs of medical face-masks are dropped at your feet. Better than nothing, but still not sufficient.

You suggest to your Agents that they should get more leads.
(1) Only two phone back, reporting no success.

You hope, and dream. "Researcher. Could vous do something about ze bunker?"
(4) A hour later, your Researcher rolls a small trolley cart thing into the bunker. You hear a loud crack, then the smoke begins to change colors, and dissipates much faster than normal.

"Uh... Magma fish... Does it cool down...? Maybe... Steam power... Need money.."

(3) Your Researcher frowns slightly, then walks off. A minute later, he comes back with an infrared scanner and uses it on the magma carp. "It seems that it isn't cooling down."

(5) You call up some "shady contacts" of yours. The sorts that would listen to you when you sound semi-drunk. Soon, you've got plans to transform the abandoned aquarium into a steam-based power plant using the magma carp to generate said steam. Plus the whole "front" thing is going pretty well. You'll still need money to get this done, however. (luck: 3) It will cost, however. A slightly hefty 8000$. (luck: 4) Thankfully your contacts are willing to pay 3000$ of that.

It seems your Agents were discussing the fact that they were going to guard, and describing their patrol schedules to you.

(2)... Steve's busy contemplating his life. Try again next time.

(2) The 5 Grunts you told to get some genetic samples from Steve or something like that are busy contemplating their lives. Try again next time.

(4) The Agent and 5 Grunts you assigned to observe the "kid" report that it(he?(it?)) does not communicate verbally, instead only nodding yes or no in some situations. Yet- it seems that pity is the deciding factor here- the mayor and his wife apparently originally took the thing in because of pity.
And the effect's getting worse.

(5(I was hoping for a one, for "We will war with one another and all will die!", but I learned not to change rolls for fun in my first RTD)) Your Researcher composes a message expressing the desire for continued communications and education, and sends it through the portal. After a few days, a reply arrives- your Researcher says they think putting a fiber-optic cable or such through the portal would enable real-time communication at a much higher speed than what you're doing right now.

(5) Your Agent you assigned to do this orders the Grunts you assigned to relocate the poster to another room... they report that there's another one in the first room. Strange.

Your Grunts are complaining that something smells horrible.

More orders are given. (3+1=4) The thing has been restrained. Significantly. (+2 to next capture roll on SCP-3)

(6) (6) You notice that your amusement park now possesses a small zoo. Full of strange arthropod like creatures with heads like deep-sea fish. And the creatures- they're acting like dogs. Somewhat. Dogs that spit acid when they feel threatened? Thankfully the display glass seems to be resistant to that for some reason. (acquired SCP-6 specimens) (gained knowledge of SCP-6, strange arthropod-like fish-headed creatures that spit acid when under threat but otherwise act like dogs)

(3) Your Amusement Park Supervisors note that the mucus contains a neurotoxin.

(media potency: 1) Your amusement park is not attracting attention, despite your copious warping of the laws of physics in your attractions.

(4) You gain 2500$ from operation of your amusement park. It would probably be better if people didn't have to go into the sahara desert to visit it. A thousand of that goes into the zoo.

"she's dead? then how was she there, let alone having duplicates of herself? there's got to be something more to it.. How and when did this all start?" he would Listen to the response, then ask the man to consider his offer regardless, as he goes to check on the status of other things..

"Resarcher.. this is extremely bad news. we need to get in contact either the delivery and get it turned around, or contact the whitehouse and warn them of what is coming. if they assemble it and someone gets hurt, we're all going to prison for freakin life.. I'm assigning two agents to you, in case drastic measures are necessary. Do NOT let this spread to the public, at all."

He'd inspect the work of the grunts on the second floor, nodding in approval. "this is quite nice! now all we need is two containment cells and a new office down here. I want you to start on the containment cells first. also, do we have any sleeping bags? I might need them.."

he'd then go up to che-oh holy cow, it's competent grunt day! " It's a bit small, but most of the actual contractor work will be done either off site, or in a larger shed that we will build later. Excellent work. Continue on with the contractor scheme, and make me proud of you."

He would then return to assist his researcher in trying to negate the threat the anomalous playground being delivered poses.
