Jason Brooks

He didn't want to disappoint his father.

I've enjoyed talking to you too, but... The man dropped his gaze to the table, looking crestfallenly.

Wasn't it?"

Jason's heart broke.

He took the toy soldier from his pocket and examined it.

Maybe he buried it too soon.

Maybe there was a reason it came back to him.

He looked at the man again and saw the father he'd been missing for most of his life.

He found himself nodding, not thinking about the future, but this moment.

This moment that he always wanted to have, that he wanted to prolong.

SCP-7819 is a hostile location-based anomaly that manifests near exits of the United States' numbered highway system, typically presenting as a roadside motel.

Manifestation is limited to current or former Foundation personnel traveling alone between midnight and 4 a.m.

after more than five hours of continuous driving.

Upon approach, affected individuals experience acute fatigue and a compulsion to enter the property.

Attempts to bypass SCP-7819 result in unnoticed spatial displacement several miles backward along the same route, producing repeated encounters until the subject stops.

The effect terminates only after the subject exits the vehicle, enters SCP-7819, and completes a variable sequence of actions.

These requirements are not fully understood, though compliance appears necessary for survival.
