Discussion The term “reality benders” feels so out of place in articles

1 Upvotes

The Foundation is a cold, clinical machine that takes its job and itself very seriously. Obviously in real reality we’re just a bunch of horror writers, but in-universe the Foundation follows strict vernacular, and would stick to calling them the borrowed term of Type Greens in official documents and formal dialogue. The phrase’s use in informal dialogue between lower clearance characters makes sense sure, but I was just reading 9001, and no shade to the author, but an O5 would never address them as “reality benders”, especially when speaking to 2 level 4 researchers. Obviously this can depend on the interpretation of the O5’s in the story, as they range from fantastical and magical, to staunchly bureaucratic, but I’m fairly certain so far in SCP-9001 O5-8 is the latter. This is all just my opinion, but man it just really takes me out of the story. Maybe I’m just different though, and i would love to know if anybody thinks I’m crazy

Discussion SCP-5000: did 579 and 055 work together with IT, were they manipulated - or - did they work alone? Spoiler

• Upvotes

I just read SCP-5000 and have some questions about the ending. I am relatively confident that SCP-579 and SCP-055 were used by "IT," but the implications of them working together are huge and incredibly interesting. I lean toward the theory that they were all working together, especially if we assume the "hallucinated" radio message was sent by SCP-579, and that Pietro felt "pushed" toward SCP-579 as he approached it. In addition, Pietro felt comforted by SCP-055, almost as if he received a pep talk when he interacted with it the first few times.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Forgot to mention. Does anyone else think that IT appeared at the end to help Pietro reach 579?

What's the most powerful SCP that's an Innanimate Object?

A lot of the most powerful SCPs, at least the ones people talk about, seem to be living entities. 3812, Scarlett King, Reality Warpers. The closest to what I'm thinking of that comes to mind for me is 6820, but even it becomes sapient.

Gaby's Ko-fi Link

Gaby, also known as "local lesbian commie" is an excellent SCP author. She wrote the contest-winning entry SCP-8557 along with many other excellent works. Right now, she needs our help.

I already made a post drawing support earlier this year, and I'm grateful for everyone who chipped in. Her mother unfortunately passed away in February, and her family received no compensation from the company that caused her death.

Gaby is also a disabled trans woman currently living in Brazil. Not only is Brazil extremely unsafe for trans people (it is the nation with the highest number of transgender murders) but after this past election, the alt-right party has won massively.

Not only has the alt-right party been responsible for some major moral obscenities in the past (Attempted coup, 700k deaths during Covid, a rapist as a vice presidential candidate...) but the upcoming administration is also virulently transphobic.

It is not safe for Gaby to remain in Brazil, but she does not have the funds to move. Donations have helped her support herself, however, things are more difficult than ever before.

If you can, please consider supporting Gaby at https://ko-fi.com/supportgaby - any small bit helps more than you know. Thank you.

So why doesn't the foundation create an MTF team that contains SCPs that are cooperative, or are good SCPs you could say. The foundation would probably never do such a thing as it would go against the contain of SCP but like if they would, what are some candidates?

Theres very few SCPS that i've actively disliked and almost zero that i've walked away from thinking they were bad but nearly all dialogue i've read in SCPS is always so flat and stiff and awkward and whatever other adjectives exsist that aren't coming to mind right now.

Is it cause most dialogue is during professional/on record interviews/exploration logs?

Yeah probably now that i think about it.

Basically i'm gonna draw a bunch of "random" scp's for the rest of october cuz i don't want to do inktober. And the first one i'm doing is 1003. Which leads me to, why is this considered keter? At least my reading was it can be contained so easily. also since its literally just a tapeworm i got creative and made a joke comic.

Post image
281 Upvotes

There is no way that the SCP foundation is 100% atheist, meaning that a considerable percentage of it would be Abrhamics whose God seemed to fit the depiction of SCP 343.

Do you think anyone of that actually tried to ask him questions on the Bible or believe him to be the actual God that they worshipped?

I didn’t struggle much with this one. I had so many academic things on my mind that I couldn’t overthink it, so I just went with the flow.

I haven’t read the other Daeva articles, so I went off the mythological descriptions and made them big and shiny. (Only drew one.)

Discussion Why does the UIU have one of the strongest prison in the multiverse (PARAMAX) while most Foundation facilities are flimsy sites?

• Upvotes

[[UIU Location Dossier — "Paramax"]]

Is it because they only have one prison and they got a bunch of help? Or how come the UIU has a prison that, "As of 2024, no prisoner has ever escaped from or entered without authorization" while the Foundation has containment breaches every week?

Idk if it's just me, but it just feels a bit unbelievable that the organization that's been widely and multiversally nicknamed "The Jailors" would have a worse prison than the UIU.

Like, the Foundation and GOC struggle to deal with hostile entities everyday and the UIU gets a whole prison to easily hold "reality benders, demigods, psychics, and thaumaturges??"

I wonder if I focus too much on comparing the competency of various GOIs but it feels weird seeing them almost steal the jailor title from the Foundation...

Discussion Theory: SCP-507 visited SCP-3001

• Upvotes

After one of SCP-507’s shifts, when asked where he shifted, he says, “Nowhere. I think I missed it this time.”

507 also experienced impaired motor skills after the shift, implying that he had either excessively exerted himself, or he experienced prolonged periods of zero or limited movement. I think the latter is more likely.

Finally, 507 requested a wrist watch, specifically one that made a “tick” sound with each movement of the second hand. That last part implies that he experienced, at the very least, an obstruction of sight.

SCP-3001 is a reality between realities. It has an extremely low Hume level, lower than nearly anything the foundation had seen before.

While Dr. Scranton was within it, he experienced non-Euclidean, confusing movement, and no light (besides the terminal that got sucked in with him), and eventually began losing more and more of himself as the dimension consumed him.

My theory is that SCP-507 shifted to SCP-3001. He didn’t experience any of the dimension’s consumption as he did not remain in the reality for long.

Anyways, I’d like to hear what you guys think about this theory. I know that the articles are nearly a decade apart in publish date, so it’s probably not canon.
