SCP Foundation - Creepypasta with roid rage - now ITT: SCP fans

After posting in here I decided to go and look at some of the new series’ SCPs and honestly? More of the same garbage as the last few years but almost no redeemable ones. There’s been an absolute overwhelming of the “format screw” format that it might as well be the new “standard” and the old “case file” format is the format screw. It’s very tiresome.

inb4 there's an SCP that does exactly that.
 
Just had a thought about a potential “Foundation is making things worse” angle that I don’t think has been touched on before. What if the Foundation is directly contributing to a rise in anomalous phenomena by locking up dangerous anomalies, because in doing so they create a power vacuum that lesser anomalies are rapidly evolving to exploit? Lesser anomalies previously kept in check by the local “alpha” anomaly (either through direct predation or being outcompeted for resources) can now run wild.

This could work as a nice logical explanation for how the fuck the world hadn’t exploded in the millennia of human history before the Foundation existed: it was a complex anomalous ecosystem that more or less kept itself balanced until the Foundation started locking things up.
 
Y'all forgot the best GoI.

what if anomalies were treated the same as vermin and people hired out smaller companies to do what the foundation does
since everything would be weighed by cost, they would destroy the ones that would be too wasteful to contain (or charge a fee for wasting their time on something really insignificant and fucking off) and pay a third party for a space in a containment facility for those that are impossible or too expensive to destroy
i dont think anyone has explored this idea apart from generic "corporations bad" shit

Isn't that just the plot of Ghostbusters?

yeah but the ghosts in new york stopped appearing after they killed whatshisname and the ghostbusters themselves were really crummy
imagine hundreds of ghostbusters across the world but actually wanting a good reputation and having standards
granted, it's not as interesting as a shadow organization fighting monsters secretly but still

Thought I'd try my hand at a little creative writing of my own.

SCP-51\133D: "The Site That Wouldn't Die"

Item #: SCP-51\133D

Object Class: Uncontained Keter Uncontained Keter Uncontained Keter Uncontained Keter Uncontained Keter Uncontained

Special Containment Procedures: Standard TROON-class web crawlers are to be used to monitor all digital services for connections to SCP-51\133D. If a connection is observed, Foundation networks will begin a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) on the associated IP addresses. If necessary, MTF Beta-41 ("Girl Talk") and MTF Gamma-41 ("Wait, What Did YOU Think MTF Stood For?") are to be deployed to ensure the compliance of related companies.

Description: SCP-51\133D is an anomalous internet forum accessible at the URL ■■■■■■■■■.net, the URL ■■■■■■■■■.st, and via the TOR network at the URL [REDACTED]. Its chief feature appears to be the discussion of Foundation personnel and contained anomalies. Of particular note is the ability of the person or persons responsible for SCP-51\133D to uncover details previously believed to have successfully been suppressed. At present, SCP-51\133D hosts the names, addresses, social media posts, and in ■■ instances [REDACTED] of an estimated ■■■ Foundation personnel. In addition, a number of unredacted Foundation documents, including ■■■ complete Special Containment Procedures files, are available.[1]

The chief anomalous feature of SCP-51\133D, however, is its supernatural resilience to standard suppression techniques. This is currently believed to be due to the efforts of an humanoid entity classified SCP-51\133D-1, tentatively identified as ■■■■■■ ■■■■. ■■■■ claims in forum posts to be located in [REDACTED], Serbia, although MTF Gamma-41 has thus far been unable to locate him.

When Foundation suppression efforts are attempted, SCP-51\133D-1 appears to enter an anomalous trance. After 48-72 hours in this state, SCP-51\133D-1's reality-warping powers manifest themselves. The typical result of such a trance is the retroactive creation of new hosting services, data centers, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and server space to provide for SCP-51\133D's purposes. It is unknown if SCP-51\133D-1 is aware of this ability. Thus far SCP-51\133D has endured ■■ sustained suppression campaigns. It is recommended that new avenues be explored before the onset of an event necessitating the implementation of Procedure 110-Ywnbawk.

I like it and I think there has been a few story's exploring it, One of them was I think about "Site 53" where the foundation decided to kill or destroy anomalies and made things worse by creating worse horrors as a mistake and allowing for the breakdown of other stable situations that where kept in check unbeknownst to the foundation.

I've always liked two concepts -

1) Objects an Creatures that the foundations finds or discovers are from another reality or from a point in time (possibly relating to SCP2000 use) where they are either normal such as things like the The Statue, or The Lizard etc are perfectly normal facts of life that have been translocated to our own, and are either malfunctioning because of that translocation, or where already working or existing sub-opimally and where discarded through space an time.

2) The O5's being aware that the Foundation and all the splintered universes are a product of fiction but it is there reality and they are trying to stop it from all going a bit pete tong, and are doing so withing the bounds of there narrative universe - I know there is some SCP cannon behind this and it's something if CWC could grasp he's be all over but I've always liked the concept of Your Thoughts can spawn reality and seeing how writers address it.

That's the point of GOI's, groups like the GOC (the Foundations only legitimate challenger) the UIU (really should be a x-files cross over) and GrU-P are doing just that and are failing either through lack of experience and occasionally getting lucky or lack of funds, I mean there is a few storeys I like from minor GOI's interacting with the foundation -

1) a Sarkic Vegatuge - who runs a really nice 5* restaurant but left the religion as a child but makes plants grow and extremely fast and runs a homeless kitchen and was allowed to keep doing it with foundation support because it was a net benefit to society.

2) Manor Charitable foundation, people who know about Anomolies and try inexpertly to use it to relive human suffering, like the Honey Mummy they gave barrels of it out in a area decimated by drought, turns out it kills people who are not a specific blood type, and the foundation has to step in to stop it from getting worse.

3) Wilson's animal shelters, they where trying to contain an study Anomalous Animals for there protection not as a display or attraction, and they where doing a good job for a long while an got left alone but encountered a few animals that where so hard to contain they had to step in, like a Polar Bear who sucked heat out of anything else, a group of Octopus that where hyper intelligent, etc they are now part of the foundation but mostly left alone and both can call on each other if needed.

a GoI is either (a) another UN-funded organization (b) another government department with an acronym (c) a cult or (d) an evil corporation
i'm autistic but i want to see how things would look like culturally and economically if ghosts and physics-defying buildings were accepted as everyday
the closest ive seen is Spectral Haptics (made by the same guy behind the Mystery Flesh Pit) but the New Deal stuff is gay

I think some continuities indicate that the Foundation was formed from the merger of multiple smaller groups dedicated to researching and controlling anomalies, and I also wager that the pre-Foundation era was a combination of destroying dangerous anomalies and containing what cannot be destroyed, since I doubt the Coalition just decided to start blowing shit up for fun. If anything, the one boon of the Foundation is that it helped unify those groups into a coherent purpose, since it's likely a lot of the proto-Foundations were either under equipped or too zealous to properly handle a lot of the things contained. Wouldn't surprise me if the old solution to anomalies was to try destroying it as witchcraft for much of the world.

Suppose the Foundation is evil (well more evil anyway) and simply wants a monopoly on the SCPs it can contain and exploit, and only kills the ones that are useless or powerful and aggressive enough to be dangerous to the Foundation or existence itself. Pretty sure someone has written more than one of these already, not sure if any of them are good though.

SCP-5000 wasn't great with the snarky commentary in the apocalyptic log, but the main story of the Foundation using its various objects as part of an extermination campaign against humanity is an interesting idea.

That was Site-13, SCP-1730. One of the better longform story SCPs for sure, I can recommend it. Written by gigantic faggot djkaktus, the hbomberguy of SCP.

the SCP Foundation has an entire alternate universe setting on the site called "Broken Masquerade" which is basically this; a world where the anomalous became public knowledge due to the Foundation screwing up, and now the Foundation has to deal with it and the anomalies it contains going public.

Other than that, the closest example I can think of is the video game Beautiful Light:

Its an extraction shooter that's best described as Escape From Tarkov + SCP, with a bit of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. thrown in for good measure. The world could probably technically be considered post-apocalyptic, but its very much as you described. Its basically a world where anomalies arose to become part of everyday life, but there was no SCP Foundation to control them. Eventually, they brought down civilization, and what remains of humanity survive in walled cities, anomalies being common enough to warrant nothing more than being mentioned on the local news. The players play soldiers in PMCs, who now travel out into the wastes of civilization to collect anomalies for their employers, and get paid for whatever they bring back. The game itself is currently in pre-Alpha.

I have found another gem of cringe.
Behold,
A Minecraft SCP

They made a fucking prison out of iron blocks and it's just really painful to read.
"Pop culture and video game references don't work when done straight. Just as with main series SCPs about mythology or folklore, it generally won't work unless you add a healthy dose of Foundation-flavored twist to it. Evangelions and portal guns simply won't cut it."
So that was a fucking lie.
