The first two photos look like Psilocybe subaeruginosa. The texture of the stipe is really weird though, almost like cellophane. I'm guessing that's because it's wet or something similar. Still, wait for another person's opinion.
The last two could be a juvenile sub, although if I had to make a guess off of those two photos alone I'd be inclined to say it's something else. It's too early to tell, really.

Ok, that's very strange looking. Don't eat it. It could be due to the lighting of the photo, but the gills look very purple, a lot more so than you'd expect for P. subaeruginosa. The stipe isn't bruising where you've cut it. The cap still seems to show bruising, but who knows. The texture looks somewhat like a Cortinarius species.
Wait for a trusted identifier. I don't think it's P. subaeruginosa any more.

its an extremely strange mushroom, it also smells very shroomy. I found this where they are not known to fruit at all. If you could maybe forward this to an identifier here that would be awesome. I'd love to know more

I'm sure a trusted identifier will pop in soon, what was it growing out of?

Where was this collection made (rough region)? IMO it looks like a bluing psilocybe sp., but lets wait for a TI

Now that it's been a day since you cut the cap in half, could you take another photograph of it? I'd be interested to see if it's bruising or not.
You should also try to take a spore print if possible.
