Dr. Hayashi: Inaki. Tell Sara about old times. About Blue-Flower.
SCP-2292: Blue-Flower. Friend. Love Blue-Flower. Hole. Not here. Not here.
Dr. Hayashi: Tell Sara more. Sara wants to know about Blue-Flower.
SCP-2292: [SCP-2292 places a hand over SCP-2292-1] Blue-Flower. Made. Made. Made. Blue-Flower good [to] Inaki. Cry. Frown. Sad. Sad. Blue-Flower [is] hole. Want see. Want near.
Dr. Hayashi: Inaki. What was Blue-Flower doing when you last saw them?
SCP-2292: Not move. Hole. Hole. Made move. Not Blue-Flower. Move [but] not Blue-Flower. Sad cry. Frown. Hole. Sad. Frown.
Dr. Hayashi: Did Inaki live with Blue-Flower?
SCP-2292: Inaki special. Inaki first. Inaki one. One Inaki. Blue-Flower love. Warm. Made hole. Made heart. No hurt. No hurt. Miss. Frown. Tired hungry. No. [Do] not want.
Dr. Hayashi: I'm sorry Inaki. You must miss him.
SCP-2292: [SCP-2292 nods]
Dr. Hayashi: Where did Inaki live? Does Inaki remember home?
SCP-2292: Green. Trees. Water, water, water move. Stones. Stones on stones on stones. Large. Large. Inaki small. Songs. Feather song. Man song. Blue-Flower, smile greet. Many people. Faces. Cheer cheer smile wave. Inaki special. Love Inaki. Move move. Laugh smile.
Dr. Hayashi: What happened to home?
SCP-2292: Blue-Flower not move. Home not move. Home stop. Home stop. All stop. Not Inaki. Inaki never stop.
Closing Statement: Based on my interpretation of what they communicated, I believe that SCP-2292 is the last of its civilization. Or rather, a tame animal that outlived those who first tamed it. I suspect that trained gorillas were common to the SCP-2292-3 civilization. I presently hypothesize that SCP-2292 was raised for the purpose of being anomalously augmented but to understand SCP-2292, it is necessary that we understand the context of its creation; for that, the Foundation must find SCP-2292-3.

I: The Foundation's attempt to teach SCP-2292 language via keyboard lexigrams has had unexpected results. Non-anomalous great apes have been taught how to use and express themselves through such lexigrams and it was hypothesized that the Foundation would have similar results with SCP-2292.
SCP-2292 destroyed the keyboard while being taught the symbol for "flower". Still within its enclosure, SCP-2292 proceeded to use damp soil to create a symbol on the wall of its enclosure which it then gestured to repeatedly. Creating a new experiment, an electronic visual display was installed within the enclosure - visible but outside of SCP-2292's reach. SCP-2292 was then provided with various non-toxic paints while an image was produced on the display, first focusing on flora and fauna native to SCP-2292's environment before eventually moving to abstract concepts.
When SCP-2292 created a corresponding symbol, a piece of sweet fruit would be delivered to SCP-2292's enclosure. By 1976, after approximately 5 years of study, it was concluded that SCP-2292 not only understood language but had in some manner been trained for symbolic understanding and communication prior to its containment, effectively teaching researchers its own language (or rather, the language of whoever previously trained SCP-2292).
During this time, SCP-2292 (referred to as "Inaki" by its handlers, as part of the behavioral analysis program) has shown a fondness for crafting primitive stone tools (including a functional spear), painting glyphs, and watching the television series Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood and Bob Ross' The Joy of Painting.
SCP-2292 communicates via a specialized keyboard which in turn produces an artificial voice. SCP-2292 is to be communicated with through the use of sign language and spoken English (preferably both in unison). A playful tone of voice has been shown to have a calming effect on SCP-2292.

Interviewer: Dr. Sara Hayashi
Foreword: Routine conversation with SCP-2292.
<Begin Log>
Dr. Hayashi: Inaki. How do you feel today.
SCP-2292: Hungry.
Dr. Hayashi: But you just ate!
SCP-2292: [shakes its head] Tired hungry.. Frown, bad, cry, frown, sad.
Dr. Hayashi: I am sorry Inaki. Why do you feel sad?
SCP-2292: [lowers head, does not speak]
Dr. Hayashi: Inaki is not alone. Inaki is loved by Sara. Inaki is loved by Joseph and Alex and Audrey. The bad ones are gone. No more hurt.
SCP-2292: Inaki love Sara. Inaki sleep-see old home. Cut hole. Bad trouble think. Cut sharp-noise cry. Deep stone long dark. Love Blue-Flower. Blue-Flower is hole. No more being. Sara [will be] hole. Inaki [will still] be. No more being. No more hurt.
Dr. Hayashi: Inaki. Sara is not leaving you.
SCP-2292: Sara [will]. Frown sad. Sharp-noise cry. [appears distressed]
Dr. Hayashi: No worry. No fear. Inaki is safe. Sara is safe. Understand?
SCP-2292: [nods, slowly; body language continues to suggest melancholy]
Dr. Hayashi: Alex said that you made new tools. Will you show Sara?
SCP-2292: [nods excitedly, leaving the interview area]
<End Log>
Closing Statement: SCP-2292 is not only aware of death but its own (apparent) immortality. Based on its preexisting knowledge of symbolic language, it is possible that "Blue-Flower" may have been the one responsible for teaching SCP-2292 in the first place. And, potentially, the one responsible for its anomalous nature. I suspect the answers lie within SCP-2292-3.
