Interviewer: Dr. Robert Dorer Interviewee: Mr. Brass, PoI-386-1-21 Conducted: 7/20/2042 Notes: This interview was held in the Site-55 courtyard, because Mr. Brass is notably more cooperative when outdoors.
(Dr. Dorer has placed a handheld recorder on the bench between himself and Mr. Brass to start the interview. As the recording begins, sounds of Dr. Dorer seating himself can be heard, as well as mechanical clicks from Mr. Brass moving into a more comfortable position. In the background, running water can be heard.)
Dr. Dorer: Dorer.
Mr. Brass: Brass.
(There is a pause. Faint whirring can be heard, as well as breathing from Dorer.)
Dr. Dorer: Well, Brass. Let's start simple. How are you today?
Mr. Brass: I'm doing well.
Dr. Dorer: Perfect. Any discomfort, any new developments with your body?
Mr. Brass: No.
Dr. Dorer: How about emotionally. Anything been bothering you? Anything we can help with?
Mr. Brass: I'm doing well.
Dr. Dorer: Good, good. Well, Brass. You probably know by the recorder that I'm not just coming to check in with you today. It's really big news. (Pause.) This is our last interview. You're going to be released.
(Running water can be heard. All mechanical sounds have ceased. A pause endures for eight seconds.)
Dr. Dorer: As of a month ago, the SCP Foundation has accepted an agreement proposed by the current Dr. Wondertainment, a Judy Papill if I remember correctly, to enter a more cooperative and peaceful relationship.
(Birdsong can be heard.)
Dr. Dorer: Part of this new relationship is that we're giving them… you know I don't like to call you this, but, our skips. You're one of them. You're going home.
(Footsteps of someone passing by can be heard, as well as a far-off conversation. A pause endures for twelve seconds.)
Mr. Brass: Really?
Dr. Dorer: Really.
(Pause.)
Dr. Dorer: Part of the agreement is that Wondertainment is going to go more mundane, make significantly less anomalous products in exchange for the Foundation ceasing to target their business practices. I think I heard that that means the Little Misters are going to be able to perform more publicly. Less cloaks and daggers. Most of you can pass as non-anomalous individuals already, as long as no one touches you, you look like a street performer. I'm certain a little bit of allowed magic will make the illusion complete.
(Brief mechanical clicking is heard. A splash is accompanied by duck calls as ducks land in the water behind the two. A pause endures for ten seconds. Then, Mr. Brass begins to hum to the tune of I'm Mr. Brass! from the Little Misters' first album.)
Dr. Dorer: Brass?
Mr. Brass: Hm?
Dr. Dorer: Are you alright?
Mr. Brass: I'm doing well.
(A small pat can be heard as Dr. Dorer puts a hand on Mr. Brass's shoulder.)
Dr. Dorer: You're going home.
Mr. Brass: Really?
Dr. Dorer: Really.
(Some mechanical sounds are heard. After four seconds, Mr. Brass resumes humming. This endures for eighteen seconds, before Dr. Dorer picks up the handheld recorder and ceases the interview.)
