o Lance's Distracted expression But there's a good chance There's something down there Lance won't tag along for the fun of it He's there for a reason And he sounded an awful lot Like his usual non-answers If you find anything We didn't put it there He didn't even say it was safe Just denying responsibility His eyes returned to the map of the area Pinned to a whiteboard The answer is down there And if we've missed it Sir, George says A moment's silence Then Grimsley grabs the acrylic case Hanging from his lanyard Opening it and pulling out the coin Heads, we go down again Myself included Make sure we've got everything Tails, we stay up here Play it safe And work on what we have He flips the coin Catches it mid-air And it slaps on its hand Flipping the coin again Flip it and flip Tails, okay Offset four Alright Tails Pull everyone away from the wreckage Grimsley says Pulling the coin away Divert them into the black box search Nobody enters that valley Without my approval Sir, we've been going through the remains For the past four hours, George says We haven't found any evidence of anomalous activity Grimsley locks eyes with Lance He has a single eyebrow raised Then we should have everything we need already The ensuing hour is far from fruitful Deprived of a full night's sleep And withering beneath the unyielding sun The attending members of Grimsley's investigation team Are lethargic, dull, and miserable Then we mean deadline weighs down In both a hope and interest The agents recognizing the impossible task And silently resigning themselves to Inevitable stricken, inevitable failure Grimsley does his best to lead by example Relentlessly scouring the amassed photographs And documents to awaken some internal resolve Or at least inspire it in others His efforts are entirely futeless Encouraging an odd few To renew their focus But every time one of them is sent off for treatment Heat stroke, scorpion stings, snake bites Or a section of the plane is removed That drive is stifled again As for new discoveries, few are made The additional hour atop the proceeding Four of analysis changes little There was at least the observation that the pilots Had tried to put out the engine fire But more concerning is the damage to the fuselage A section of three entire meters is missing Reduced to shrapnel with the three jagged Metal ends scorched black Two explosions, Grimsley says Rubbing his face in frustration One at the port side engine One other near the tail, also port side Connected, engine came first But they wouldn't have bothered with the suppressant Once the tail came off Could it have caused a second explosion? Burning fragments ignited something? George shakes his head It was too far back There shouldn't have been anything explosive there Unless the fuel tank was ruptured and leaking Grimsley bobbles his head, probably not They should have noticed the fuel level dropping And even if they hadn't It wouldn't pack enough of a punch But it definitely happened below the floor Right from the wave that metal was bent The two of them returned to silence Staring at the document stuck to the whiteboard before them Schematics for a Boeing 737-400 The model of passenger plane FM-2439 belongs to The foundation had purchased it from a liquidating airline company Hollowing it out for cargo use Trucks, trains and boats preferred Having larger capacities and lower maintenance costs But whenever times of the essence Air transport is the go-to It could be some new wiring or parts A bad cable could have kicked some sort of Chemical reaction between the plastic and the metal, I guess Better than nothing, follow it Lydia, get a hold of the service records Pull up everything that was changed in these spots These two spots since forever Lydia nods, turning to look at a spare laptop Honestly though, sir, the last time I saw something like this It ended up being I know, I know, Grimsley size, a bomb Which would mean it's intentional I'm just hoping it isn't Fifty minutes is a scrape to find out who did it Assuming we even can still A pause, the distant sound of a running engine A portable crane lifting parts of the wreckage Out of the valley for removal and destruction Lance is over with their removalist directing them He lost interest in Grimsley the moment He'd abandoned the wreck Keeping that out for something Grimsley thinks Watching it, waiting for it to be uncovered Director Lance will extend the deadline, surely George says Grimsley shrugs, probably not But we can at least see what excuse he comes up with Go fetch him, don't say why Just say that it's important You don't seem to trust him much I don't, not at all He gives me orders, I give him reports And everything else is just double speak and redaction To keep up with appearance Now, enough of that, we're burning time George nods, turns and then sets off For the other side of the valley Grimsley returns his focus to the photographs And documents I'll bet Lance knows what happens And what happened, and he wants to bury it Getting rid of the wreckage deals with the evidence The bomb had to be under the floor And the only way it could get there is maintenance Has Lydia got something? Lydia says Perfect timing, what? She turns to the laptop towards Grimsley A crew of seven were doing maintenance Behind the fuel tank just a few hours before the flight Grimsley grins, what maintenance? It just says a routine inspection Find the list of everyone on that crew And detain them all for questioning Lydia raises an eyebrow, detain? Something has changed there, one of them did it Or saw who did I don't care where they are or what they're doing Send our guys to grab them and grill them until they tell us what they were really doing Could have been an accident still Accidentally knocked something loose or what have you But that engine fire, that's still unanswered Was it a triggered? Was it a trigger? How? If they had a damn flight data The following portion is stricken It says found the flight recorders and nearby agents' shouts Holding a phone to one ear Perfect timing That's the end of the stricken portion Grimsley says, pausing for a moment Deja vu Bring them here ASAP and be ready to dump their contents immediately Now it's just a matter of convincing You wanted to speak to me? Grimsley turns to Lance Perfect timing His brow furrows He takes a moment to glance between Lydia, the agent on the phone and Lance Something to matter, sir? George says arriving behind Lance Nothing, Grimsley says It's just convenient timing Yes, I wanted to speak to you about extending the blackout No You haven't given me a chance to say what I've found Explain, Lance says Taking a puff from his pipe Well, we know there were two explosions I'm aware of this A pause, Grimsley scowls And why aren't you giving us more time? Things don't explode for no reason Lance takes a long drag SCP-6056 What? A series of explosions that occurred throughout Site 43 without cause There is precedent Grimsley looks to George Pull that one up and see if there's similarities George nods going straight for an available laptop You don't seriously expect me to just wave this way as bad luck do you?  I can't be sure, but yes, there's a good chance it was Which is why we need more time so we can figure out if or who and how Lance turns away Taking several long extended puffs from his pipe Grimsley checks the time on a nearby laptop No No? The blackout Are you kidding? Grimsley hisses, clenching his fist Do you think this is a joke? You wake us up at 4 in the day and morning You take us to work in an impossible deadline Admitting you don't actually care what we find And now what I'm saying is we've actually found something You're just ignoring us A few moments pause It's your turn to explain Lance We are at a sensitive juncture Lance says taking a puff from his pipe There are operations in motion that must succeed And factions that will benefit if they fail The time constraint is necessary because of this This area is not sanitized but once blackout is lifted The name discoveries you make regardless of the benefit Will be rendered totally redundant Of your division, you are the most likely to determine The cause of events between with these constraints That is why you are here And what happens if I don't figure it out in time Then we hope that it was a random isolated event And if it recurs, you must do better than next investigation The vehicle pulls up into the base camp Saw the occupants jumping out Carrying a pair of bright orange objects Struggling to come up with an adequate insult Grimsley simply turns away to join the agents With Lance falling behind Get these open now he says We need everything on them We'll do one of the agents says But Grimsley exhales loudly Pinching the bridge of his nose What? Some of the gear has just stopped working Can only dump these one at a time Start with the flight data then Agent Nod's getting to work Grimsley turns away shaking his head Just stopped working Right I'll bet another one mysteriously dies before we get into it What the hell is Lance even playing at? He's acting like some fairy tale villain Just being an arse for the sake of it Even he isn't usually this obvious With a bit of luck the flight data might give me an answer But if it doesn't He turns back looking between the orange devices And he begins doubting his decision What if the pilots knew something? He pauses Lance is looking for something on the plane Surely the pilots would have known about it Something that can give me a lead Grimsley tosses up between the options Unable to decide which to pursue Go for the recorder most likely to say How the plane went down or risk it in one That might tell him why After a few moments he pulls the coin He pulls out the coin Heads, cockpit recording Tails, flight data He flips Okay, again Heads Heads Alright Offset 7 And we get Heads Wait Grimsley says He stares at his lucky coin Experience says flight data will be the most illuminating But experience also says the coin points in the best direction Sir, do the cockpit recording instead The coin says swap What am I going to do flip again to decide if I listen Besides, Lance looks uncomfortable So there probably isn't anything in the data We would have stepped in if there was Or something Excuse me The agent odds, mildly displeased And then sets the half unscrewed black box aside To work on the other George turns to Grimsley from his laptop 6065 Was shock waves, not explosions And it wasn't entirely random There was evidence it was an accident caused by someone But we don't really know who or how they did it Grimsley casts a little sign along Glare at Lance who simply takes a pop from his pipe Maybe that's something An accident he's trying to cover up For a few moments Grimsley idly juggles the coin In one hand, surveying the dwindling Activity around him Has anyone heard anything about those Bodies yet? No replies Someone give me the number for 137 I'll find out George nods giving the number to Grimsley As he puts the coin back in his case Pulls out his phone and idly walks over to the The edge of the valley The wreckage is almost completely gone 40 minutes or so and all that remains There are a few sections of the fuselage The rear most to the wings and the cockpit are long gone And the tail section has probably already been dealt with The call connects Grimsley goes through the usual motions Ensuring the line is secure Identifying himself then asking for a area's morgue He watches as the cleanup crew attach One of the remaining segments To a crane preparing to remove it Morgue This is assistant director Grimsley Trudge Investigations A pair of bodies were sent to you over an hour A sigh Where are they coming from? Death Valley crash site, two bodies Yeah I heard you the first time Just give me a damn minute Grimsley blinks Excuse me, a pause, sorry sir We've been getting flooded at the moment It's kind of hard keeping track of everything What happened? Flooded Literally flooded, I'm currently waiting through Waste High Water that's contaminated With defrosting corpse juices To get your answer for you Isn't that the only one having a rotten day Doesn't sound fun Could be worse, there's a floor below That we need bodies from Two pilots, FM 2439 That's the ones Arrived, autopsied, shelved Must have forgotten to report it Just a synopsis please The crash killed them Broken faces, crushed chests, that sort of thing Traces a blood belonging to a third individual though Grimsley's fur Brow furrows Belonging to who? No idea, can't get any more samples now Though since they're both below the waterline Right, thanks anyway Grimsley sighs, hanging up And pinching the bridge of his nose, lingering for a few moments Before returning to the concentration of activity The cockpit recording blackbox is open The agent removing the chips from it And plugging them into a computer Lydia is busy talking on her phone She shakes her head when Grimsley glances at her And George is following suit Although he ends his call after a few seconds Anything? He says How many people were aboard that plane? Grimsley says Just the two pilots, why? Did anyone get hurt down on the wreck? Cut a hand or something? George glances at the other agents around They all shake their hands or shrug There was blood from a third person, any ideas? Everyone looks to each other, confused Except Lance, who raises an eyebrow From who? He says The way of knowing, the morgue is flooded Why? Who do you think it could be? Grimsley turns around and steps away Pulling out his mobile phone and dialing someone Grimsley's brow furrows Then his eyes wide A third person in the cockpit should show up And, got it The agent working on the recording says Pull two hours, skipped to the last 15 minutes Grimsley said, taking a seat beside him Putting on a pair of headphones A garbled, intelligible mess An intelligible mess of rapid speech plays through the headphones The agent skips through the majority of the two-hour recording I'm telling you, take her out Great. Oh yeah, I'm going to take your advice On double speed, Grimsley says Now this conversation flies by Intermittently peppered with flight adjustments That Grimsley repeats for everyone to hear George taking the initiative To transcribe The topic shifts continually Advice on restaurants around Los Angeles Where to buy shoes, upcoming movies to see Then a rant about the Marvel franchise Do you hear that's where That's what is where Stop, Grimsley says Normal speed, go back a minute The agent nods, two minutes to impact Being you, secret Wars is going to suck There's no way they can wrap up phase six without doing some Stupid multiverse reset like they keep doing in comics Then they'll just start this all over again Adult, faint noise occupies The silence between speech Fantastic Four was pretty good Fantastic Four had a low bar Sure, they kept that guy from the office But the thing was a terrible actor They extended silence As he focused on the sound slowly growing in volume Do you hear that There's a noise, Grimsley said Like a metallic scraping or wheezing Shuttered like it's coming through a fan What is, where is that coming from The sound continues to grow in volume Someone else catches Grimsley's attention He presses the earphones against his ears Stranding to hear Seeing altitude to A faint dull thud What the hell was that Carol engine is another thud Then a distinctly louder thud An explosion A swath of alarms go off Joined by the sound of the outcraft Shuttering through turbulence Several more faint explosions join it Bank right, bank right, May day, May day This is Foxtrot Mike 2439 We are Grimsley winces at the volume of the next explosion It's the largest or closest of them all We are hit, we're hit Get the deafening sound of tearing metal And then setting Total silence Grimsley takes the headphones off Dropping them to his desk He ends back in his seat Covering his mouth with one hand Staring blankly ahead Sir, George says, a pause Lance finishes his phone call Returning to the group He notices everyone staring at Grimsley And follows suit Shot down, Grimsley says Turning to stare at Lance The plane was shot down Explained, Lance says Brought furrowing Several explosions Sounds like one hit the engine Another the body But the pilots saw them Banked south to avoid them And specifically said they'd been hit What about that wheezing noise? What was that, George says? Lance raises an eyebrow Metallic stuttered wheezing Grimsley explains I have no idea But there were voices too Fainter than it was Two extra people I couldn't hear that much But one of them mentioned a quote Carol engine Lance's eyes widen He sternly marches across the gazebo Straight for the computer Ripping the recorder's Cards out of it And showing them in his pocket This investigation is concluded Now hold on Grimsley says Jumping to his feet This is my investigation I'll decide when You were required to determine The cause of the incident You have now done so Surrender all evidence Clear the area Submit a non-copied report Direct to me And the matter is concluded We don't even know I will direct further investigation Into this This is not a conclusion Of the matter Only your involvement I will take action to ensure This does not recur Hey pause Lance takes a puff from his pipe Meeting Grimsley's glare With an indifferent stare You can't just work us half the death then You and your staff may keep the remainder Of the day to yourselves And it says In addition to tomorrow Clear the area And submit the report Grimsley shakes his head Then throws his hand up in the air Do as he says Lance nods Returning and stepping over The valley's edge Whistling to get His workers attention That's it George says Everyone around Sets about their tasks That's it Won't he just hide this? The important bits definitely The director might get the truth But none of you ever will And you try poking around You'll just wake up tomorrow With no memory of this Wondering why Lance demoted you We've all done what we can We must accept it We must just accept it And move on George nods frowning He turns to pack up At the laptop he had been working on Leave that I've got to do the report And hey Vegas is just around the corner You could do it with a proper break After all this That cheers him up He heads off Grimsley taking his seat At the laptop He logs out of George's account Making a mental note To remind him about it And into his own Opening the program he uses To write his report He glances at the valley's edge Just in time for Lance's head To disappear below it He opens a search engine For the foundation's database Carol engine No results Carol engine Uh Oh with an additional L Results SCP-7930 I'm sorry 7390 Grimsley closes the search engine Opening the main catalog Types in number 7390 Then opens the file Confidential Security clearance level 5 Department of Logistics Assistant Director Lance Scrimshaw We've got a Portal Extramensional And electronic affecting Cards Type E Conditioned State D4 VDIS 5 7390 Image redacted Special Container Procedures SCP-7390 is currently redacted The Department of Logistics Is redacted Redacted Redacted SCP-7390 must redacted Redacted By unauthorized members of Distributed Task Force Epsilon-7 Sign here please And Division 6 Guns and Roses Redacted Redacted Redacted Redacted Redacted Redacted SCP-7390 is to be terminated Security protocols for redacted Must be strictly enforced As a result The unredacted version of this file Is restricted to level 5 Logistics With all potentially sensitive documentation Redacted at general level 5 Distances and below Description SCP-7390 is the Carol engine A redacted redacted produced by Project redacted redacted redacted redacted redacted Semi-autonomous defense system The design, technology, and functions Of SCP-7390 Derived from redacted Redacted Significantly more robust redacted Which appears to incorporate redacted From an SCP redacted Throughout it Further information regarding redacted redacted Is available in the documentation of the project Redacted SCP-7390 Includes a redacted redacted Redacted et cetera et cetera Redacted Randomly selected aircraft Resulting in redacted Occupying the redacted As such as projectile fire Whether hazards or anomalous influence Will instead redacted This enables the SCP-7390 redacted redacted redacted At the expense of redacted redacted aircraft And consequent redacted redacted redacted As a result, SCP-7390 Is intended for use only as a last resort For the duration of redacted redacted All individuals and recording devices Within and around redacted redacted redacted Here is stuttered metallic scraping Or wheezing noise Redacted redacted redacted redacted redacted Perceived in SCP-7390 The cause is unknown Due to redacted redacted SCP-7390 is theorized to be directly responsible For an unknown number of historically redacted Significant aircraft losses Potentially including the disappearance Of redacted redacted Redacted suspected translocation Due to anomalous influence Redacted redacted SCP- Year 2020 Redacted redacted redacted Civilian aircraft had disappeared while enroute from Redacted redacted to Redacted redacted redacted Years...

Is this 5.79? One is... The description is redacted completely Fun I liked it I really like the choose your own adventure thing I think that works really well with the coin flip mechanic And I do like how it seems like the choices are Significantly different And I wonder how these outcomes will Will change You wanna give it a go? Yeah, let's take one more swing Alright From the top So we've already read page one Which brings us to our First coin flip So this ends at deciding If we're going to send George ahead Or if we're gonna go ourselves Yeah, I got heads But you wanna do another flip to see what you get? Yeah, I wanna keep it lucky So we'll see what we get Thankfully I got tails So we get to see something new To reveal the eagle Tails Grimsley size Fine He puts the coin back on the bedside table Tails up Then sits on the edge of his bed Staring blankly at the lamp After a few moments he rubs his face furiously Staving off the still encroaching desire to sleep And stands up Come on Gotta go Come on, get moving His apartment is small Consisting only of three rooms The main living area A living room and a kitchen Divided only by a bench His bedroom And the bathroom bedside And the bathroom beside A hot shower helps him to wake up The sound of the water echoes through the home Interrupted by and disturbing no one For Grimsley lives alone He has been considering getting a cat But has yet to act on the idea Once in his uniform He fishes an acrylic case from his bedside table Puts the coin in and dons the attached lanyard Breakfast Two slices of toast Both buttered One with raspberry jam Instant coffee Made in a thermos The latter goes with him as he leaves His travel through the city streets Is fine at first But his heart sinks when he turns onto a highway Searching he spans a bumper to bumper vehicles The nearest turnoff is five kilometers away And in 40 minutes When the congestion finally clears He's only moved by two Had he slept in and left later He could have avoided it entirely That is what happened, yes Three hours later Grimsley stops his Ford Everest In a makeshift parking area Besides a collection of portable gazebos He's embarrassingly late to the party His own investigation's division Is already firmly set up Agents buzzing about between the shelters While some stand at the edge Of the hill's crest Looking down the stony slope beyond The moment Grimsley opens the car door The cool interior atmosphere Immediately evaporates Fierce sunlight blasts down from above Filling the vehicle with scorching air Grimsley sprints to the nearest gazebo Signing into a logbook And pointlessly flashing his ID card for confirmation Then grabbing a water bottle And going into the crest To see the accident itself Beyond is a narrow valley Not the titular death valley But a reasonably sized sibling of it This stretches from north to south Grimsley's left and right, respectively The opposite face is scarred by gashes And scorches that led down to the main event The ruins of a Boeing 737-400 Broken to several pieces All of which had tumbled down to the valley You're late Grimsley flinches at the voice Lance, what are you doing back here? What are you doing here? Lance simply stares back With his usual expressionless gaze I'm wondering if this is all The same text as before This offset does homogenize with the others But it's the only one that does It was really supposed to lead off elsewhere But I had to cut back due to time constraints So yeah, this is the description Of Lance Scrimshaw that we got Puff from blowing smoke Equally ranked, the least of the assistant directors The blackout is six hours Manageable, we can probably get this move Not move, destroy The whole incident must be resolved By the time the blackout lifts You can't be serious Lance stares back with a different gaze You're giving me six hours To open, close, and tie investigation No, six hours from the time of the incident Which occurred four hours ago Still the same, still the same Can you at least tell me why? No But if this happens again If it ends up being important somehow It's on your head Because the report is going to be rubbish Lance nods gesturing towards the gazebos Grimsy walks a few minutes Towards the encampment Then stops turning back Lance is following him I will be overseeing your investigation Why? No reply After a few minutes Grimsy rolls his eyes and confirms And continues What do we have approaching? A lot of tired people Who'd rather be in bed You can have me to list But seriously, what? Wait, George? You're here too? George, the man Grimsley Had considered calling earlier nods I was nearby So I had to come in I thought you'd ask for me Not me, but I'm glad to have you here So what do we know? And that's how we get George Back in the story Not much Plain was in FM 2439 On route to Las Vegas Mayday received at 0348 Contact last seconds thereafter It was traveling east It should have been But it looks like the pilot No survivors turned south After contact was lost Cause of death the usual Alright, keep it on Rollin' down The rest of it is identical So thank you, Jack Ike We're gonna skip ahead To the next coin flip Our next question is Are we going to Grab the Going down to the canyon Or are we gonna ignore it? Coin flip Luck of the Irish Let's see what we got Tails again So this is what we did before Which is pulling down Pulling everyone away from the wreckage Because we're not gonna find Anything cool down there So this is all the same That we just read then Don't seem to trust him I give him orders I give him reports Double speak Keep on running Aware of this 6056 The blackout It's your turn to explain land Sensitive juncture Starting to redact things From the dialogue He's acting like some fairy tale villain Just being an arse for the sake of it Heads cockpit recording Tails flight data He flips Last time we got Heads it seems Or tails it seems We got cockpit last time So we didn't do flight data Let's see if the coins Give us the same response They put us on heads So Are we at the same ending? Yup We are back to the age ascending Yup Alright Well Fate Certainly had that in the cards for us Yeah Alright Well Frustrated I'd rather to see something new All I got to see is exactly What I thought That we avoided the traffic jam So we avoided the traffic jam We got George there anyways Those are our two differences And our two runs Otherwise everything we got Was exactly the same It does look like the other one there That last choice That other ending has more More knowledge That's being revealed about the actual anomaly I was about to say I want to see one more ending So I'm going to go to tails On this last choice Cheating fate So now we are looking at The Flight data Rather than the cockpit And gets tails Grimsley nods Yeah Figured Sir George says Returning Nothing Grimsley replies Putting the coin away For the last time that day The file George shakes his head Shock waves Not explosions That it seems to have been an accident Caused by someone else Grimsley casts A side-long vent at Lance Who takes a pipe Puff from his pipe Who No idea But probably us Or different us Off in some other timeline Reality Storyline Searches for an apology In their own voice And that was the end of it Grimsley's brow furrows That's it One of them Oh never mind The point is The anomaly isn't relevant Right? No it isn't But remember that incident I said I looked at last year That was scripted out You think it's relevant?  The agent calls Needed Grimsley blurts Jumping past Lance to get back to the group Filling laptop screen is a myriad of graphs, diagrams, and values Reflecting every recorded aspect of the aircraft Over the duration of its flight, altitude, speed, inclination, fuel consumption GPS coordinates Every single signal sent from any part of the plane to anywhere else A copy of everything that happened Used together, the information could be used to perfectly replicate the flight in simulation Right up to the moment the data recorder disconnected from the airplane Everyone Grimsley pauses to hear the clear throat Everyone frees on this Search it all Find every single inconsistency Are you alright? Says the agent Fine, can you uh Grimsley shakes his head Trying to regain and organize his thoughts Bomb Fire Engine Extinguisher Extinguisher Signals He says The agent nods They navigate through the program Pulling up the record of signal sent to and from the engines Huh They say They point to a graph on the screen Engine fire started exactly 7390 RPM A few seconds later Oh, that part's stricken out A few seconds later Signal for the fire retarded To go That's the last thing it received Everything else just stopped a few milliseconds later Grimsley frowns Exactly 7390 RPM Stricken out The agent searches the screen for the recorded engine's RPM Which he hasn't either noticed nor mentioned yet Huh, yeah Exactly 7390 RPM Stricken out The agent mentions to Grimsley that this must be coincidental Though both engines had reached double that speed earlier in the flight And would have failed if it was significant This reminds Grimsley of George's earlier moniker One is isolated He accepts this and moves on Grimsley covers his mouth in the hand thinking Last signal His attention turns back to the airplane diagram on the whiteboard As he tries the best to ignore Lance's staring Stepping over Grimsley locates the black boxes on the picture Tracing the wire connections with one finger George Yes, sir Come here a moment George does Engine fired exactly 7390 RPM Grimsley says, knowing full well that it is irrelevant Cannot possibly be significant A few seconds later The last signal is for the fire suppressor Everything stops then Bigger blasts sever the connections Grimsley points to the black boxes Then repeats its tracing of connecting wires Running through the port side wall of the fuselage He stops halfway along The wires run under the floor He says tapping on the diagram On the port side Straight through the explosion Less than half a second between the two George nods understanding The bomb was wired to the black boxes connection Just behind the fuel tank Engine rigged to catch fire When the pilots try to put it out Kaboom Grimsley nods He notices the papers in George's hands Stricken out George nods handing over the insignificant reports Even knowing there's nothing in value of them And no possible way the incidents could be linked together yet He rudely decides to waste the superior's time And whatever trees were ruthlessly shredded For the 200 pages of paper He has printed each on For this, George feels guilty And decides it would be best to preoccupy himself With something more productive for the rest of the day Like staying away from Grimsley Except when actually needed Thanks Can you call Area 137 Find out what's going on with those bodies I haven't heard anything from them on Yet On it Glancing over his shoulder Grimsley quickly steps Around to the other side of the whiteboard Using it to hide from Lance The reports comprehensively go over the investigation Of two previous flights Neither of which are relevant to FM 2439 yet FM 3924 Overseen by George Trellis Destroyed en route to Chicago Eight months ago In FM 4239 Rearheaded by Gregory Taloran Grimsley stops Reading over the names again George Trellis FM 3924 Gregory Taloran FM 4239 Grimsley Trudge FM 2439 What the hell?  Adam Celebes? Yeah, him. How did you catch him? Grimsley says, flicking through to the end of Gregory's report. Georgia's an answer. Grimsley stops asking. Grimsley stops doing what he's doing and goes back to what he's supposed to be doing because he's supposed to be doing it. How did you catch him? Uh, shape. Found a shape carved in the back of the fuel tank right at the end. Three spirals. He'd been mentioning to his friends. They mentioned it to us. We searched his house. Found the place full of drawings, spirals and groups of three. He said he'd written a story that generally matched the events. Changed names in places but the same beats. Took it as premeditated. All of that struck out. Three spirals. George nods. Grimsley abruptly loses his last vestiges of sanity and begins slamming his head into the whiteboard until he loses consciousness.  Grimsley shows a page. Struck out.  Audrey Smith did the same four months later. Symbol and story.  Get down to the wreck. Find the symbol. George Sprint's into the valley. Lydia. Is there anyone on that crew with the initials AS? She takes a moment. I got an Andrew Sloan. Victor speaking to him. Strike through. No one else.  It's him. Search his house. Find pictures of spirals and a story about this. Get him on the phone. Struck through. Explain. Lance says no. Shaking his head. Can't be a coincidence. Spirals. Why? How does Lance fit in? That part was struck out.  Grimsley opens the reports skimming through them for names. L.S. L.S. L.S. That part struck through. Grimsley doesn't find anything because he's already dead from an explosive heart attack. Literally explosive. He ate too many bananas the previous day. The potassium from them built up in his heart. Literal explosion. The closet he finds. The closest he finds is a Lector Kelvin but no analog for Lance. Struck through. Lydia holds up her phone. Grimsley snatches it. Andrew, he says. You're breaking the rules I say. He pauses actually and realizing genuinely just how much trouble he's in. Andrew Sloan. Yes, that's me.  His brow furrows. What rules? What are you talking about? You're breaking the pattern. You aren't supposed to catch me yet. You're confessing to bombing FM 2439?  I did it. I got onto the maintenance crew. I carved the spirals into the back of the fuel tank. I smuggled the bomb on and wired it into the recorder system. I've come home. I'm writing up the narrative. I've already got pictures littered around my place because that's what I'm supposed to do.  You aren't supposed to find me yet. You can't just cheat like this.  You fit the pattern because I'm supposed to. You are too.  You're supposed to talk to my colleagues. Hear them mention the spirals I keep mentioning and sure you get pretty suspicious of me. Weird behavior and all that. But you aren't supposed to catch me until after you find the symbol. Not before the cleaners are supposed to break down the last bit of the plane. The one then one of them spots the carving. Then you conclusively link it to me. Then you catch me. You aren't supposed to pick up on the pattern.  Excuse me.  You don't get to talk. I'm the narrator.  Not you.  The protagonist. You do as I say, because I tell you to do it. When I delete something, you forget it because it never happened. You don't get to ignore me. Dot, dot, dot. This isn't supposed to be meta fiction. You don't have free will. Right, Andrew. I'm sorry. No, you aren't. But you will be allowed metallic groaning followed by shouting. Grimsley turns to the valley because I want him to see this. A worker jumps up from the crane. A worker jumps from the crane as it tilts forward tumbling into the valley. Time slows down for Grimsley, but he doesn't move any faster. Everything proceeds in slow motion so he can understand what's about to happen. He lets out a shout if he wants. Not like I can tell him not to anyways, but he can't stop the vehicle from tumbling down the slope over and over down toward the last remaining section of the fuselage. The lightweight materials of the fuselage easily, easily crumble under the heavy steel of the crane. It crushes like paper, Grimsley, and you see all of it. You see it in slow motion, and you can't do anything to stop it. Everything inside is flattened like a pancake. And you know it. You know exactly who's inside, don't you? Yes, you do because it's the last section, the one with the back of the fuel tank. There's no survivors, Grimsley. No survivors.

SCP 7390 is a the SCP 7930 file is compulsory reading for a level one or higher foundation personnel that do not have the initials AS or GT. The SCP 7390 file is to be uniformly redacted to all foundation personnel with the initials AS and GT, with the exception of SCP 7390 dash B instances belonging to previous SCP 7390 occurrences. Foundation personnel are forbidden from discussing any aspect of SCP 7390 with individuals with the initials AS or GT. Potential SCP 7390 instances, regardless of their name, must be immediately reported to security personnel and apprehended. All potential SCP 7390 dash A instances must be reassigned from all maintenance duties for a minimum period of six months, regardless of position and or pending duties. Foundation maintenance personnel with the initials AS must undergo monthly psychological evaluations to monitor for escalation into an SCP 7390 dash A instance. Potential SCP 7390 dash B instances, regardless of their name, must be reported to supervising personnel. Under no circumstances should any investigation conducted by SCP 7390 dash B, especially into SCP 7390 dash C vehicle be interfered with or accelerated using knowledge of SCP 7390. Foundation personnel with the initials GT must be instructed to preemptively report intentions to conduct an investigation of any kind to their superiors or to their supervisors. In the event that an SCP 7390 dash B instance conducts an investigation that appears to align with an SCP 7390 event, Foundation security personnel must identify any potentially related individuals with the initials AS and prepare to apprehend them. Foundation security personnel must not apprehend any SCP 7390 dash A instances until directed to do so by SCP 7390 dash B. All SCP 7390 dash D instances are to be surrendered to the Department of Pathophysics for archival and investigation description. SCP 7390 is a series of events which reoccur every four months, always consisting of and focusing on SCP 7390 dash A foundation maintenance employee with the initials AS SCP 7390 dash B an investigative foundation employee with the initials GT SCP 797 390 dash C a foundation vehicle with a numerical designation consisting of the number two, three, four and nine in any order. SCP 7390 dash D a narrative written by SCP 7390 dash A detailing an investigation conducted by SCP 7390 dash B into the loss of SCP 7390 dash C pictured examples of spiral iconography commonly produced by SCP 7390 dash A the specific identities of SCP 7390 dash A and SCP 7390 dash B the vehicle type and model of SCP 7390 dash C and the content genre and medium of SCP 7390 dash D vary between occurrences prior to SCP 7390 dash 5 the fifth occurrence of the events both SCP 7390 dash A and SCP 7390 dash B were always employed by the Department of Logistics, the latter being a member of the Investigations Division and SCP 7390 dash C was always an aeroplane. Approximately two months after the previous SCP 7390 event had concluded, SCP 7390 dash A will be inspired to write SCP 7390 dash D interviewed acquaintances report that SCP 7390 dash A initially appears excited by the concept devoting a significant amount of their spare time to the project over the ensuing two weeks. However, SCP 7390 dash A becomes visibly and persistently anxious, refusing to discuss their condition, dismissing inquiries into SCP 7390 dash D and progressively avoiding all commitments outside of their work. Analysis of recorded dialogue from developing SCP 7390 dash A instances revealed a propensity towards cryptic references of mind control, stalking, intimidation and constriction, particularly when used in reference to themselves. Furthermore, when deflecting inquiries into their condition, SCP 7390 dash A will almost universally change the topic of conversation towards spirals, vortexes or coils. The perceived symptoms of anxiety reportedly diminished one month after the initial conception of dash D supplemented by an increased focus on their work assignments. Recovered financial records indicate that dash A began researching and purchasing materials to construct an improvised explosive device, taking appropriate and successful precautions to avoid arousal suspicion. After another month, totaling four months since the conclusion of the previous SCP 7390 event, SCP 7390 dash A will be assigned to conduct maintenance on SCP 7390 dash C, during which they will both covertly install the explosive device and intentionally leave some form of spiral theme visual cue as evidence. Within the ensuing 24 hours, a coincidental event experienced by SCP 7390 dash C while in use will cause the detonation of the explosive device resulting in the destruction of the vehicle. SCP 7390 dash B will be assigned to the ensuing investigation initiating the SCP 7390 event proper, which will transpire exactly as documented in SCP 7390 dash D. SCP 7390 dash B is given a significant time constraint but becomes aversive towards direct investigation during the SCP 7390 dash C wreckage. During the course of the investigation, SCP 7390 dash B interviews the colleagues of SCP 7390 dash A who highlight the individual's abnormal behavior before proceeding but over the preceding three months. SCP 7390 dash B is unable to conclusively identify SCP 7390 dash A as the culprit until the final hour of the time constraint at which time they discover the triskellion left within SCP 7390 dash C linking it to SCP 7390 dash A's obsession with spirals. SCP 7390 dash A is apprehended at their residence, which is extensively decorated with illustrations of spirals while attempting to finalize SCP 7390 dash D. SCP 7390 dash A confesses to SCP 7390 dash B, reporting that the narrative of SCP 7390 dash D had been manipulating them over the preceding three months to both complete the narrative and instigate its events with their earlier abnormal behavior arising from threats issued by the narrative. Across all occurrences, the foundation has uniformly failed to identify SCP 7390 dash A, SCP 7390 dash B, and SCP 7390 dash C until after the conclusion of SCP 7390 dash D's events. To date, SCP 7390 dash A have never succeeded in finalizing SCP 7390 dash D during the events. Completing the narrative after the events have concluded causes no discernible effects. Addenda, Discovery, Escalation. SCP 7390 was first identified on May 5th, 2025, following the conclusion of the fifth known SCP 7390 event wherein Assistant Director Grimsley Trudge, SCP 7390 dash B dash 5 apprehended Andrew Sloan, SCP 7390 dash A dash 5 for the sabotage of FM 2439, SCP, pardon me, SCP 7390 dash C dash 5. This event is particularly significant as it is the only occurrence to significantly deviate from the SCP 7390 archetype. SCP 7390 dash 5 is the only event where a previous SCP 7390 dash B, SCP 7390 dash B dash 3, George Trellis, was present. A.D. Trudge is the only SCP 7390 dash B to become aware of previous SCP 7390 during an event. As Trellis both recalled their own SCP 7390 event and discovered SCP 7390 dash 4, notifying A.D. Trudge of both. A.D. Trudge became aware of both the SCP 7390 anomaly and Sloan's guilt significantly earlier than all of the events facilitated by the previous point. A.D. Trudge is the only SCP 7390 dash B to have influenced the SCP 7390 dash D narrative against their SCP 7390 dash A instance. Of note is that the recovered SCP 7390 dash D was metafictional. Several lines in the final paragraphs are crossed out with only A.D. Trudge retaining the deleted information and the narration becomes increasingly insulting towards A.D. Trudge. Sloan is the only SCP 7390 dash A instance to confess out of order. Doing so before A.D. Trudge discovers the trick-selling clue. SCP 7390 dash 5 is the only occurrence where the SCP 7390 dash D ends before all the SCP 7390 events have concluded, terminating immediately after Sloan's confession and omitting his subsequent apprehension, the discovery of SCP 7390 dash D, and his recount of the previous four months. Subsequent investigation later identified SCP 7390 dash 1 and SCP 7390 dash 2, two earlier aircraft incidents aligned with SCP 7390 dash No dash. That's just said too many times. SCP 7390 dash 6 began on September 18, 2025. Unlike all previous occurrences, SCP 7390 dash C dash 6 was a freight ship instead of an aircraft. And SCP 7390 dash B was a crew member instead of a member of the Department of Logistics, Investigations Division. All subsequent SCP 7390 events have similarly deviated with the SCP 7390 dash C vehicle and position of SCP 7390 dash B being randomized each time. So whoever wrote it got annoyed that they got caught early and now is changing it to make it more interesting. The game is the foot. Yeah, that was intense. Okay, I really like the metafictional aspect on that one. Yeah. I love a good author railing at their creation. So many metafictions in the foundation are from the perspective of the foundation trying to fight their writers, which is not often very conducive. So this gave me like Stanley parable vibes of just chewing out the player character and it made me very happy. Yeah, yeah. I like the I like the whole metafictional aspect same same deal. I mean, I'm a huge fan of jack Ike's work. We, you know, we've talked a good, a good deal about this stuff. The I get a lot of vibes from like the breach that keeps on breaching and other right, like writings of yours if you're instilling the chat. Like, yeah, it's very, very, very reminiscent. And I saw the the linked one 6065 I think was the one, right? 6056. 6056. Sorry, yes. That one I feel like I might have missed. I'll have to go check that one out because it sounds familiar, but also not not something I've read before. But yeah, it's it's all I mean, this is a definite upvote for me and I has it's all the big sci fi and high concept markers that I look for in a good mind bend the article. So good job. Yeah, Jack Ike killing it with this one. I'd like to see the other two ends endings at some point, but covering two. Oh, yeah, that's Harry's right. You're right. You're right. Well, the all the 43 stuff is still reminiscent. You know, it's I recently read meta Ike and that one also kind of gives me similar vibes, although the presenting is completely different. breach that keeps on breaching is Harry's right.  It's just it's good stuff. Yeah. Yeah, this was dope. Uh everyone go read the other endings and have fun with that. Go check it out. Yeah, check them out later. Plus 50. Yeah. Awesome. Okay. Before we get on to our next article, make sure to donate to hymns for the road. Help Raddiger make a dope horror fiction, spooky fiction Fayfolk podcast. Yes. Raddiger works very hard. You she deserves she deserves to get that uh that uh you know the goal completed and you should you should help out because you get awesome stuff for backing. There are eight days left. Uh that means we're gonna have one more stream during this and uh we're gonna have a little bit of a special event next week to make sure this thing gets funded. We will we at site 42 will not let this fail. I'll tell you now. Not at all. Also make sure to support the go fund me for Dr. Sumerian could use a little more money to stuff that mattress that's on the floor. Oh yeah. Yeah, it's it's starting to sag a bit from all the rain. Um we're trying to get the hole filled but it's any additional donations will go to uh elevating his mattress. There we go. Put a little money stacks like legs on the bed. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Dark lord thirty seven nineteen and nice demon queen. Thank you for the simultaneous super chats. Well timed. Yeah. Thank you for supporting the channel. That'll help us to support these ourselves as well. Yep. Absolutely. And last advertisement to go to the link in the description. You can become a site 42 patron to help me make stuff happen like this. I donated to both Sumerian and Radiger on behalf of the community. Although depending on how hymns goes, I might be giving a little more on our behalf but I'm doing what I can to make sure any project that comes across site 42's radar. I am giving y'alls funding to the funnel. Yeah, I I donated as well and I also uh for I donated to Rad's and of course for us uh first month or two uh I gave all of my music proceeds to Sumerians and that that worked that worked out quite well. I was uh I got more for that than uh than I ever made in out of music so I'm glad that uh I'm glad that I was able to help out with Sumerians. Music funding. Are you talking about slow gramming? Yes. Yes. My uh SCP uh OST a thirty three track album that is all uh themes for different SCP articles. You can check that out. You can go to my support link at the bottom bill of thought space. It has all my links there. Uh it's all you know compressed under one one location and you can you can check out slowgramming.bandcamp.com and uh you can see that see all my music there. I have another album coming out in December but it's not necessarily SCP related but still check it out. It's good stuff. All right and so let's close the ad window. Where is the reading window? Come back reading window. There we go. Next is SCP seventy twenty three. By you like. Let's see. And this is yeah it's not it's a different Ike um SCP seventy twenty three. It is the last remaining variant. The last remaining variant. Mm-hmm and um I this might be our last one. It's it's hard to say. We got a little bit over an hour. It's on its length. It could be. It depends. We got a lot of conversations. Those kind of fly by. Yeah. That's true. All right. I want to start us up. Certainly. Item number SCP seventy twenty three. Containment class Euclid. Threat class Multiversal. Special containment procedures. Currently SCP seventy twenty three is being contained in a standard humanoid containment cell at site twenty four under the authority of the foundation variant dash ZL slash one five two A investigation into the origin of this anomaly is ongoing. Individuals searching for more information should contact the department of Multiversal Defense. Description. SCP seventy twenty three is Julian August Mary a baseline thirty three year old human male currently in the custody of the foundation in universe dash ZL slash one fifty two A. SCP seventy twenty three is a non anomalous however appears to be the only remaining multiversal variant of an individual commonly referred to as Julia Tron. The Department of Multiversal Defense is currently investigating the reason for this multiversal anomaly. So far this investigation has reached several conclusions. Julian Marie of universe ZL fifty one fifty two A is the only remaining multiversal variant matching their universal multiversal signature. No signature matching that of SCP seventy twenty three has been identified in any of the investigated universes. In the past a variant of Julia Tron has been present in every a truan has been present in every single investigated universe. Furthermore it would appear that every variant of Julia Tron has ceased to exist simultaneously. Footnote with exception of SCP seventy twenty three. Therefore an unprecedented multiversal event must have led to a complete disappearance or destruction of every other multiversal variant of SCP seventy twenty three. Due to the nature and implications of this potential wide scale multiversal event a meeting was called by the Department of Multiversal Defense based on the Hexa Universal Multifoundation Collaboration Agreement from 2018. Addendum seventy twenty three point one. Department of Multiversal Defense Leadership Meeting Transcript. Internal Recording Transcript. In attendance o five one of dash w k slash four four one a Dr. Haster Galva of universe w k slash four four one a Dr. Ariana Ike of universe dash w l slash oh three oh nine three that a Dr. Ariana Rose of w l slash oh three oh nine three b is going to be wonderful uh oh five one of zl one fifty two a oh five seven of zl one fifty two a Dr. Vladislaw Mulder of zl one fifty two a uh Dr. Trevor Ander of zl two fourteen a oh five five of zl two fourteen a and Dr. Yama Dulu of zl eight four six a and I'll read the side the sidebar box thing before we start says hexa universal foundation collaboration agreement. The HFC agreement first signed in 2018 by representatives of six foundation variants from six nebrian universes footnote uh these these variants coming from universes w k four four one a w l oh nine three a w l oh nine three b zl one fifty two a zl two fourteen a and zl eight forty six a ensures collaboration and information exchange between these foundation variants this agreement was formed as a direct response against the increasing threat posed by multiversal group of interest X01 known as reya utas pair uh based on this agreement a newly created joint department of multiversal defense is to investigate neighboring universes and create solutions for multiversal threats and the in the image caption is department of multiversal defense logo so that's the thing um do you want to take the doctors and i'll take the o fives i was thinking the exact same thing okay sounds great uh beginning log go ahead thank you for coming here on such short notice especially you yama i am aware of the current situation in your universe and i promise not to waste your time oh please dr galvin let's just get to business all right as you probably know our field investigation units have reached a frightening answer to the riddle of scp-70-23 it would appear that some sort of wide range event of unknown origin and purpose has occurred leaving no survivors safe for scp-70-23 what makes this event frightening is the scale it was a pure coincidence that we even noticed something was wrong whatever happened left no traces of attendee work yes um if i may our agents have attempted to track the universal signature of our subject through all means even thaumaturgy has failed us we have no idea what caused it and we are even more clueless when it comes to scp-70-23 itself maybe he just got lucky that i'd say mr marie should consider himself the luckiest man alive agreed well we cannot ascertain with a precision that he is the only remaining instance of themselves he is most definitely the only one in this multiversal cluster as well as our neighboring ones well that may not be necessarily true there are a number of universes we haven't checked dr diluli with all due respect this is about the z in x and y clusters look all i'm saying maybe this has something to do with the memetic pricks yama please there's no need for such language here i understand no you don't look i'm sorry i know we shouldn't bring our own universal problems here but we are at war and just because you all refuse to acknowledge it doesn't dr diluli please we can discuss this at another time dr diluli is visibly irritated but agrees actually yama may have a point we've never seen multiversal threats on this scale before rea utis pers becomes second rea utis becomes second in their ability maybe we're just missing the obvious here dr uh ariana dr icke and dr rose uh rosee the e makes me think rosee both turn their heads towards dr ander sorry still a bit new at this i keep forgetting which one is which i wanted to speak to dr ariana icke that would be me right anyhow if we put aside the obvious problem of how i was wondering why exactly would a civilization focused on conquering other universes want to destroy a single person in every universe good question well we know one thing they are persistent we managed to hold out against them for years now maybe they just figured if they can't absorb us they can destroy us the room falls silent they don't have the means no one has that kind of power it's a possibility though they certainly haven't given up my world suffers their aides constantly but you're right we can deal with them even if this wasn't all possible which it isn't as far as we know we have no idea what's going on in their clusters yes dr icke to our knowledge but even if the necessary power for something like that would be enormous the multiverse is infinite as far as we know and according to our estimates riyadis per and its variations are present in most universes of the x and y clusters that's a lot of resources in their hands yes but they aren't working together it is inconceivable precisely if their memetic nature makes it their memetic nature makes it impossible for them to work with other variants for themselves have their efforts focused on fighting themselves we should still investigate it if they found a way to destroy something across the entire multiverse we are all in extreme danger so should we presume that if they tried to destroy mistruan in all universes that their metaphysical weapons somehow missed mr marie well only if we presume only if we would presume that to be the case we do all right all right we shouldn't eliminate any possibilities for now mr dr molder is there any information to be gained from sdp 7023 itself no nothing useful anyway he's honestly not an interesting man he wasn't even aware of the anomalous when we got to him quite frankly i'm still the opinion that we should release him we have discussed this he stays in your care till we find out more we should talk to him again he might seem ordinary but there is quite literally no one else like him addendum 7023.2 dr galva's personal thoughts on scp 7023 i'll read this one sure our teams have investigated over 200 individual universes belonging to almost a dozen different multiversal clusters not a single one of them helped us to understand scp 7023 the destructive event that created it or what could have caused it the investigation has concluded that each variation of julia slash julian etc has simply ceased to exist simultaneously about a week ago all of them except for scp 7023 in fact probably no one in the entire multiverse has the means to even know how it happened we only know it happened because to us it didn't well it did i didn't know dr julia truan in my universe but now i know she worked for the foundation there is this pronounced sense of fear when dealing with other versions of yourself something more akin to existential dread than actual physical terror i still don't know how ariana deals with it how they both deal with it sometimes i catch myself thinking about my other selves especially when ria udus per has brought up to know there is most likely a me somewhere beyond the barrier of this world working to destroy or worse to assimilate this place sometimes i wonder if there isn't me out there that is so different from how i think and from who i am that i wouldn't recognize myself in them scp 7023 if the team term should even apply doesn't have to ask these questions anymore survivors guilt is of course a wholly different factor but there must still be something strangely calming when one knows there aren't any other selves of theirs from the journal of dr hustler galva now read the side box next the threat of ria udus per very little is known about the principal constraints forming the memetic concept of ria udus per it appears to be a powerful meme manifesting itself as a semi-religious idea dedicated to spreading itself across the multiverse foundation originating from universe zl 846 a has encountered a variant of this meme in 2017 when a group of medically defected individuals attempted to invade their universe and had to be forcefully repelled this threat was later classified as goi x01 since the formation of the hfc agreement that has been ascertained that a large portion of the neighboring x and y clusters of universes have been either successfully invaded by this meme or a place of origin for a variation of the idea as such travel to infected universes is highly forbidden all non-allied universes that haven't been affected are to be made aware of this threat so as to possibly establish an alliance interview with scp-7023 forward dr molder has decided to conduct another interview with scp-7023 as per request by the project leadership however before the scheduled interview could be conducted scp-7023 reported experiencing strange symptoms forcing dr molder to start the interview early getting log good morning mr marie how are you feeling today morning doctor i'm yeah i guess i'm doing okay glad to hear that now what was that about the sickness yeah yeah i'm i'm feeling kind of dizzy all day it's probably nothing but i wanted you to know since you wanted to know if anything happened i see i'll make sure we get you checked anything else well i mean i wanted to ask when i could finally leave this place mr marie i no listen doc i've been here for about two weeks now people will know don't worry mr marie no one is gonna notice that you're gone well i do have a i i do have a flat to take care of and i mean i don't really have a family but there is this stray cat that comes to my doors mr marie i'll be honest with you we have no idea when we'll be able to release you as you are aware the nature of your anomaly is rather unorthodox even by our standards what anomaly honestly doc i tried to catch a thing or two but none of it honestly makes any sense to me we've discussed this yeah yeah i get that i'm unique or something but the way i see it i can't shoot lasers or fly or nothing so i just might not just let me go dr molder stay silent see doctor i thought you were just keeping me around because i could talk but then i figured you probably have something to make me forget all about this place we do i knew it well so why not just give it to me well you may not feel like it mr marie but you are a rather special person special man even if you can't shoot lasers or fly so what can i uh winces in pain mr marie what is oh my god scp 7023 is tightly holding his left wrist with his right hand the skin around the area is visibly darkening as the effect spreads he seems to be in a lot of pain gosh it it hurts what what is going on doc i i don't know stay here help i need a medic afterward in the aftermath of this interview an on-site medical specialist has been called in to assist scp 7023 however before he could arrive all immediate effects cease and all in the darkened skin around the subjects left wrist remained scp 7023 claimed that the pain has stopped even though he's clearly remained in shock additional testing has was approved shortly after testing revealed no conclusive results of the effect on the skin of scp 7023 the effect appears to be purely anomalous however upon further investigation traces of foreign extra universal signature were discovered in light of this the origin point of the effect has been origin point of the effect has been tracked to universe xt slash 007a and addendum 7023.4 excerpt from dr icke's theory on multiversal travel you might take this one as well yep all right ever since we discovered the multiverse our goal has been to find out more about it we sent recon teams to navigate the map out neighboring universes it was never easy to make sense of distances between universes as they more or less represent variation when we say a universe is neighbor in ours we mean to say it is one of many to do so and one of many that are different sure people might speak differently this guy might be red and flamingos might not exist but the general physics require and requirements for human life are usually the same the further we go the more strange things become if we imagine the multiverse is a three-dimensional space which it isn't but it helps we could imagine this variation factor is distance travel from our original universe in other words even if the travel from universe to a to universe b is simultaneous and travel from universe a to universe r is also simultaneous the imagined distance between these universes is not the same thus universe a is very far from what universe r would look like now when we talk about multiversal travel we often throw around the term universal cluster a cluster universe is quite frankly not a real a cluster of universe is quite frankly not a real thing like many other terms it is simply something that helps us visualize the multiverse better theoretically a cluster is a dense group of universes that generally share a significant feature for example the infamous x cluster discovered shortly after the invention of multiversal travel in our universe anyway is an infinite group of universes also sharing similar patterns and most of them light doesn't have the same properties as it does in our universe and neither does sound if you want to put another terms assuming you are familiar with human levels the local reality level of most universes in the x cluster is lower than our own the point is that even if all these classifications are superficial and in no way reflect the actual distance between universes or any such thing they can aid in the universal navigation no one which universes share our laws of physics and reality can be vital and traversed in the multiverse it is also very helpful indicator and determine the severity of multiversal threats as i've theorized before many entities or groups traveling the multiverse must surely use a similar navigation system this would of course explain why the hostile mimetic civilization of ria udus per is so hesitant to attack our universes in full force we know our clusters have slightly different parameters and they must know it as well plus of course the universe is infinite and their clusters are filled with variations of the same meme luckily for us from theory on multiversal travel by Dr Arianna Ike reading the side box next multiversal clusters x and y shortly after mappering out neighboring cluster areas of the multiverse the department of multiversal defense discovered the x cluster of universes which were soon determined to be the origin of ria udus pair because of the dangerous mimetic influence present in these universes no proper exploration attempt was deemed feasible and all subsequent effort has been focused on shielding the clusters so as to isolate the spread of the medic infection all of these efforts were halted in 2019 when it was discovered that what was previously thought to be a singular mimetic virus has in fact been numerous multiversal variants fighting between themselves the general theory states that due to the semi-religious nature of the meme different various see each other as heretical and fight between themselves for supremacy addendum 70 23.5 incident report on September 17th 2022 multiple universal breaches were discovered during a routine control of routine control of extra universal frequency scanners in universe zl 846a per protocol mtf units were deployed to each location in anticipation of a raid party from a different universe within several minutes these mtfs were overwhelmed by a number of hostiles that had to and had to retreat an emergency distress call has been issued immediately through the department of multiversal defense to all member and allied universes support units from universes wl093a wl093b and to zl 214a were capable of hindering the advance of hostile forces but were unable to destroy them this chain of events led to the foundation leadership of universe zl 846a to this through a desperate action not supported by the department of multiversal defense by a direct unauthorized command from dr deluli mtf juliet seven quote world hoppers was sent through a multiversal gateway to universal xt 007a as it has been previously determined to be the origin point of the symptoms affecting scp 70 23 below is a transcript of the mission footnote the existence of this unauthorized mission was discovered only after its conclusion and dr deluli was severely reprimanded non-relevant parts have been cut out all right exploration video log transcripts date uh september 18th 2022 exploration team mobile task force juliet seven world hoppers location of interest universe xt 007a team lead j7 fort team members j7 circle j7 halo and j7 turret my suggestion is uh circle and halo is one person because circles and halos and fort and turret are the other person because fort and turret go together okay yeah that works great um i can take uh let's say i'll take fort and turret and you can be deluli so we have a little bit of back and forth here all right beginning lock so yama you want to tell us what this mission didn't come from above no you can still walk out on me if you want not going to happen i've been looking forward to this for a long time no way so what have you got for us a quick recon locate the device artifact or whatever that will match the signature try not to get into trouble and get back asap copy that momentary silence you know this will get us all into trouble right i know good luck dr deluli disconnects from the radio all right uh we've got this special antimimetic gear cognitive blockers stealth armor pocket reality anchors damn where'd you get all this stuff from girl silence and she's gone looks like it's just it looks like it's on us boys so is everyone ready ready ready ready sir okay started up circle i'm on it j7 circle activates a thomaturgic portal in the middle of the chamber using a ritual the process takes about a minute and a half done it should be a tune to the right universe should it is i got it right enough chit chat let's go circle you last turret up front halo with me team j7 walks through the an unauthorized thomaturgic portal and arrives at universe xt 007a they appear to be standing in a narrow street with a dark yellow sky above them the team immediately starts looking around for any side of hostiles the architecture around them is roughly reminiscent of ancient middle eastern cultures and everything appears to be desaturated footnote uh the an effect of local physics affecting the way light interacts with matter once the team determines they are they are there alone they proceed down the street j7 halo uses a provided cant counter to measure local reality finding it to be several humes below baseline the team shortly discusses collecting samples but decides to stick to their vision upon exiting the street they find themselves in some sort of plaza stone bricks on the ground aren't even and the whole plaza seems to be descending towards a massive straight tower constructed out of pitch black material j7 turret voices concerns about a lack of people and j7 fort orders the team to advance towards the tower after confirming that the provided signature matches team j7 moves quickly and soon arrives at the base of the tower the height of the object is difficult to ascertain due to its size but must be over 200 meters long also i'll read that side box after i just want to think for flow i'll continue this for now i don't really like this where are all the hostiles relax they're probably all attacking our home how can you say such a thing that doesn't help at all cut it out you too as up front let's grab whatever we can and rush back this place is giving me the creeps um sir what it is j7 circle points to an entrance to the tower that was previously hidden due to the extremely dark material that it was made out of i've got it j7 turret advances up front with his gun while the other members follow the interior is made out of the same dark material but is illuminated with the strange yellow glowing orbs on the walls using this the team is able to enter a chamber located in the middle of the tower their cognitive blockers start alerting them during this time the center of the tower is revealed to be hollow with a long glowing spiral object in the middle leading them uh from leading from the ground all the way up to the top this object is notably notably being this object is notably being partially covered by the team's cognitive blockers what the fuck is that thing i i've seen this before i think it's it's a multiverse map uh edge relation model footnote the edge relation civilization is one of the first ones to create a somewhat functional multiverse map the model is not compatible with modern knowledge as it presents each universe as a sphere on an infinite line which is signified by either creating a circle or simply having no end it's not the most accurate representation as far as i know and my head hurts just from looking at it why is my visor sensor in it i don't know but it's something strong i can feel it pushing against the cognitive blockers is there anything to grab here circle j7 circle is looking at the tower walls which are also covered in symbols lines and cognitive hazards i think this is written in their language in a couple of other languages and this that's latin i think so but the blockers are hiding some parts of it it must be some kind of message meant for a wide audience they want to share it with everyone look there he points to a text a couple of meters from the ground written in english it reads we the lucky chosen who have has usurped the land of destiny and cast down redacted to slay all the heretics hereby say redacted to all redacted as the sun settles upon the eternal flame of this just land of light well that just sounds like their usual memetic religious bullshit i don't know man i don't really like this there's no one here exactly there are a couple more things here written in all kinds of gibberish i'll record it and they can study it back at the base but i think we should go sir definitely do that make sure you've got everything we can get and let's get out of here the team records everything in the room for a couple more minutes before leaving on their way back a loud noise is heard akin to a french horn being blowed in the distance afterwards the team uses a thomatergic portal on their way back home and log and the side box group of interest x01 as ria utas pair is not a united threat its principles are difficult to describe in most cases all goi x01 individuals remain human however exceptions to this rule have been encountered the memetic virus itself presents an even bigger challenge as it seems to be highly adaptable and capable of infecting different consciousness in different universes making it extremely potable what it can be said about all variants of goi x01 is the fact that their religious iconography revolves around unity light and the spread of their ideology since their discovery at least a few dozen individual variants of ria utas pair have been encountered many of these variants have employed a strategy of peaceful first contact so as to infect an underwear universe due to this they deem the response to any communication attempts involves treating them as hostiles okay addendum 70 23.6 domd leadership meeting transcript in the light in light of this chain of events a meeting of domd leadership has been called to discuss further development and these are these all you um andre i don't think was in the last okay andre was only there for a minute all i can definitely take yeah why don't you take andre and rosé and i'll just cover the other ones with the voices that i remember that's fine yeah yama what have you done i did what i had to do none of you wanted to move a finger so i went behind your backs and did something feel free to punish me later now that we now we have more pressing issues doctor deluli takes out multiple shoots of paper and distributes them between the other members is this what i think it is it's confirmation ori we were right scp 7023 is the result of their eigenweapon program and it's much worse it's just the testing shot dr molder yes i sorry but this is all very nice yama but we have no conclusive evidence all i see here are theories and ideas you presume that this weapon of theirs is capable of destroying all variations of something how would that even work and why that is precisely what i am saying it seems to target a specific element present in a large number of universes and then it destroys all of its variants simultaneously all except one and how exactly does that work i don't know but since when do we need to know how things work before we try to stop them what she's trying to say is how exactly do we know that well the recovered text seems to refer to their weapon as cleansing flame and from what our linguists can tell we know what they wanted it for in fact we know they already used it dr deluli is visibly shaking they used it on themselves silence please explain gladly um so the recovered text seem to be our biggest lead turns out we really underestimated how creative they can be apparently one of their variants created the weapon to do exactly what it does it we don't have the specifics and i doubt they matter now but they used it on themselves to get rid of all the other variants it was roulette my god so because their biggest weakness was constant infighting they destroyed all the other variants except for themselves why not just target something more tangible like the foundation they want to spread their influence they can't do that if there isn't anything left maybe the foundation is too involved with our worlds i don't know in the text they call themselves the lucky chosen i guess they saw it as some religious ritual to find out which variant is the right one using random chance does it matter we have a more pressing issue i doubt there's something standing in their way to us now we already experienced that newly found strength um excuse me but what exactly are you suggesting we do i i honestly don't know i wanted to coordinate some kind of attack or something but i don't know how to fight this it might take some time before the lucky variation takes over the rest of the clusters but if we don't do something soon we're done silence um can i say something now go ahead it's not suddenly stops talking the room erupts in a panic as both dr icke and dr rose a instantly disappear what what just happened oh no it's them but why we haven't done anything to them why dr andor suddenly disappears and now i'm out of the conversation well i hit that's not exactly true she's in a shaky voice yeah sorry that's all right what could you please just get to the point the mission log it omitted something what do you mean they were there to gather information but also they carried a bomb a bomb i'm sorry i didn't think straight they were going to wipe us out and i it was a technological marvel anti-mimetic bomb capable of rendering a huge area practically unnoticeable i wanted to use it on their weapon to hide it from them but maybe they had another one or it didn't blow or whatever they must have figured out who sent it dr galba suddenly disappears gosh i'm so sorry starts crying okay listen we probably don't have much time so listen scp 7023 is infected remember the thing is slowly killing him it's the same thing that killed everyone else that's why it led us straight to the weapon dr to lily doesn't say anything but nods whatever it's doing uh maybe it's uh not perfect i hate myself for saying it but if uh the man dies there's a chance the mimetic fucks will all die too maybe there's still a chance dr molder suddenly disappears no please i i don't i'm so sorry dr delily continues crying for another few seconds before she suddenly disappears white space this is an urgent message from the department of multiversal defense to all allied groups within the multiverse we are under attack an extremely dangerous mimetic phenomenon is spreading throughout the multiverse and is currently attacking us we have recently classified this phenomenon as scp 2020 7023 although the largest defective group calls itself reya udus pair any attempts at communication from this group should be ignored this message is a warning and a call for help they have devised a weapon capable of selecting targets in other universes we have reason to believe that there is a way to defeat this threat but we cannot do it alone their initial outburst has claimed many of our lives including our leadership but we are dedicated to fight back it is possible that your own universe has already experienced this please if you're receiving this message forwarded on and if you cannot help then at least wish us and at least wish us good luck your own lives may depend on it for everything that it is like the the individual parts of something that i should like but some reason doesn't sit right with me i don't know if it's like the specific choices that it's used for certain words or like i don't know there's something so i watched the movie eternal sunshine of the spotless mind great film used to be one of my favorite movies yes i watched it by myself i've only ever seen it once sure and i sat there watching this movie and i was bored and annoyed and i did not enjoy myself the entire time and then when the credits rolled i said that movie was amazing i loved it out loud and literally like shocked myself with those words i don't know why but i entirely slut trudged through this movie and then changed on a dime when i hit the finale right and this article just did the opposite to me i was loving it all the way down the conversations the little dialogue was good nothing was too long the dialogue was good the concept was good and this ending is like a cliffhanger to be continued non-ending that just makes me sour on the whole thing yes and i don't understand what the animatic bomb has to do with it or they like like what was that just setting up a a reason for them to attack us in specific yeah i mean are this this people in specific i think that they have plenty of reasons to attack them worse than from us being creating a multi-versus defense alliance against them but whatever you know i am yeah i am like reverse satisfied um i think that they're also at the last i mean is it's is it supposed to be uh like if you're seeing this message forward on if you cannot help us then at least wish us good luck because it's it's it's a new sentence it seems like the end of the the message is wish us good luck your own lives may depend on it but the previous sentence seems like it like it's capitalized and everything i don't know like if then at least like i feel like that needs a dot dot dot yeah uh also the idea of them sending a uh like a forward this to x many people and you won't die in a multi-versal it's kind of got that vibe right at the end yeah i don't think that was the intention but i definitely got that kind of vibe um love all in all yeah all in all it's it's like the the story is good but there's a lot of things in it that i think need to be need to be workshopped maybe um i think the dialogue is dialogue is good dialogue is the best part of this the anti-mimetic bomb threw me as kind of just an excuse to get these people killed and then the ending does not satisfy at least in its current state to me also this just reminds me of like another retelling of the meta-foundation coalition multi-verse agreement in 1981 which is talked about briefly and in other scp's of of this nature um but uh it's you know it's definitely its own thing just like not as good it's very interesting you always hear about things that are like greater than the sum of their parts yeah so like this is the opposite of that yeah definitely there and then you're just like oh it doesn't quite yet yeah yes i'm gonna i'm gonna know on this as a vote i'm not gonna downvote but i do want it to be like adjusted yeah i i agree with that sentiment all right well we definitely finished that one faster than i thought we would indeed let's look at the next one and see if this is a one more or a closing time sure let's see next one in line was 7802 let's see where's that bar at oh this is a short one i think wait oh wait there's a little thing at the bottom okay no no no no yeah it's it's short it looks shorty all right well then um let's do a shorty and keep the train going we're not done yet oh good luck trying to pronounce that containment class oh i'm excited to do it okay this SCP 7802 by Dr. Hormres titled and yes it is titled decrease the possibility of containment failure a red anomalous religious expressions department warning oh

containment failure description scp 7802-a is an abandoned research facility which was reused by the foundation on the 15th of july 1987 to build up the containment of scp 7802 scp 7802-a locates in a nameless valley and it is believed that the building has existed for at least redacted years redacted with fucking how many digits one two three four five six digits that's a lot of years the surface of it has been masked as a normal local building and the only way to recognize it is a metal airtight door that leads to the underground structure with a placard that reads anomalous religious expressions department embedded on it addendum some of the ceremonial containment programs were abandoned code usso description a personnel is asked to use any different form from yesterday different from yesterday language to read the following sentence in a clear manner we don't know where it comes from we will try our best to contain it the procedure is to be conducted once a day no decrease the possibility of containment failure increase the morale of the site stricken failed oh all the um all the images are links i don't know if you saw that i did not yeah it's they're all references to other scp's well just realized code usso is not a link to anything oh you're right all the other ones are okay so code normalcy description dissolve the department of abnormalities no wish me good luck and that links to okay so that links to primary abnormalities yeah air ed linked to nothing eternal linked to nothing nike oh uh profit links to oh i see yeah welcome to delta t something right temporal site one welcome to yeah yes it's the introduction to rct delta tau or the temporal anomalies department uh code idle links to scp 5790 data killed burned links to dark side of the moon scp 4220 code dawn links to uh day breaks proposal so a red is what happened to the department of abnormalities is what's happened here i have no clue but there's also a another addendum at the bottom oh sneaky what do you got here addendum to the lake comas the first time when i was transferred to scp 7802 i didn't understand the purpose of these ceremonies at all i didn't know why we stuck to repeating these ceremonies with a vague effect containing an anomaly with a vague description these ceremonies are also so gentle that they are not like those typical a red managed ceremonies i have handled with surprisingly almost no blood and sacrifice can be seen i asked the principal at that time and his answer was only one sentence we don't have enough manpower to consume but every ceremony in the corresponding pattern has its own meaning and i didn't know this until later the ceremonies have a close relationship with other contained objects or projects but the truth is more than that we're using these ceremonies to build a virtual religious performance decrease the possibility that an anomaly escapes being contained and pray that luck is on our side we only know that in any case 7802's failure and containment should be avoided but we are unable to do so among countless reality iterations we are alive now just because we are lucky enough ah this is scp 7000 it's luck principal of scp 7802 researcher chang ha you so it kind of reminds me of a scaled-down version of the normalcy uh the the the links through that 3790 the department of abnormalities but um while the department of the 3790 department of abnormalities is just like a clip show of dr uh dj cactuses rather best hits uh this is just a bunch of articles that i guess the author liked i guess so it's you know it's like not i like the presentation i was looking at this source code and it's very confusing to me because there's a lot of uh code in there that's just like i don't know what exactly what it's doing um but like i was trying to get the the text for the containment class so i could google it and see what it what it was talking about apparently it means omega titlo which is just like a omega with a symbol on there or something um but in the class bar thing where you fill in all the uh the fields it doesn't say that it just says ot so somehow there's a way that they're like replacing the text as well i don't know what's going on but there's a lot of stuff happening here that there's the thomiel uh class in here somewhere i don't see thomiel at all um so it's very odd but um it's decent it's a decent article um and taking not in the this like the context of scp7000 context because do i think it deserved to be scp7000 no but um it's not bad it's still confusing yeah it's it's not my cup of tea i'm not one for like this style of article it's not my personal flavor yeah it's an internal secret you know it's that's supposed to be an extra extra you know nebulous i guess but it's it doesn't can't hold itself on its own because it's the entire core premise is based on other articles which is a fun inherent flaw there's plenty of articles that reference or even have another as a very like just like even as an example not to go back to this one but the wukaiju one the pacific rim one it mentioned 5514 a lot but it didn't necessarily like rely on that designation i didn't need to read 5514 to get the point yes yes and if you removed it from the picture you'd still have an anomaly there there's really not a no anomaly here as far as i'm aware yeah there's just alternate containment procedures that help the other anomalies listed right it's a nameless valley i think it's strange that they took the time to link a couple scp's but then left some circles blank and it might just be like you're supposed to figure with with these ones out or maybe they don't have any particular anomaly related to them but it does one they're not it's not obvious that you can click on these images i only noticed because i was going to the page code again um so it was just an odd it's an odd article overall um yeah it's i don't know if i would downvote it i don't think i would i mean it's it's fine to exist on the site it's what's decently written um i'm a simple no vote uh the aesthetic is really strong like yes i can't believe them like with the gray scale like i feel like i might get bored of it but the way the tones are the way i love the uh image and the look of the squares and the links and the symbology yes absolutely the aesthetic of this is gorgeous i just wish it yeah but how much is the you know jack style or whatever yeah it's jack style um because let me see one thing i was curious about was okay yeah yeah so like the drop downs and stuff are all jack style it's a very good theme you know i highly recommend you know using that theme sometimes but like it's not not too much of that is uh the author i would say that the like the icons and stuff are definitely the author and you know they did a very good job with that for sure this is large svg element in the like the very beginning of the page source and it's it's stressing me out because i don't know what it's what they're what they used it for i guess it's to generate the image behind the warning log um i don't think it's it's necessary to do that but um yeah i'm glad that they knew how to do that i guess i don't know it's it's a lot of code for just the image it's interesting interesting choice but the the symbols generated those those images that are used to link off those are really cool i agree um the non-standard style of the format is interesting too i like item sequence code it's interesting and like it's cool i always like a good format screw but uh yeah it definitely will be a no vote for me i think there's definitely something here and perhaps you could the author could expand on like the description the nameless valley that is scp 7802 a or 7802 rather and 78 no wait oh yeah locates in a nameless valley yeah so i'm there's there's some unanswered questions here that i think if the author expanded on could elevate the article a bit but the idea would be to make it its own thing maybe have some other narrative some overarching plot that's happening that's uh concerning the actual like why is the department you know like what's going on with them why did they where they defunct like what happened um who knows but as it stands now yeah i am scoping out our next article on the list which is 7042 correct yeah i was looking at that as well it has got a fair amount of number unpacking yes there's a lot of collapsibles there i don't think we're going to be able to do that one and a half hour no i think this is a call a little early and start with this sucker next time sounds good with me fantastic and let's see what we got coming up in the next next week we got next time on all 7 000 articles yes um where are we at we're at 42 42 yes um other natures sketchbook by arcland um then we've got mr iverson and daisodron 77 75 but one i will see how many we get through but there's a number coming up that uh a lot of them look like uh authors i know of and i'm sure they'll be readable at least i'm excited um i'm particularly excited for my recognize on this uh next scale is a red red red ah yeah uh that that one definitely stood out to me as well um let's see you still have a ways to go but i'm excited for uh scp 7555 i hear it's very good um that'll be good yes we got one two three four pretty banner image haza shout out to athris as always wonderful art and that's only on screen for just a moment because of course as our final news remember that we are doing all these 7 000 screams streams bill of an eye because we are supporting our homeboy dr samarian whose house was brutally assaulted by a tree absolutely very upset very angry undeserved assault on an innocent dr samarian yes and we kind of very vague description of what the tree looked like and thus we are taking out every single tree that looks like a tree basically um and we've only got 50 unchipped 50 articles left to to do it um so make sure you're here for that are we seriously at 50 left yeah only 50 left exactly 50 though nice exactly 50 yeah and if you want to help out with some artistic stuff go hit up hymns from the road or hymns for the road audio fiction we have that linked in the description as well so you can go help out radiger and the find us a live team making a new podcast it may not be scp related but it is scp adjacent both in creator and subject matter so it should be a fun time absolutely if you're a fan of scp you will like hymns for the road yes make sure to become a oh we got a couple more donos during this i don't know if it's from us or from someone else but i like to see that number going up either way let's see oh yes great thank you that most recent donor i think there was one make sure to become a site 42 patron to support our streams make sure to follow billeth on twitch to support the gus gang twitch.tv slash billeth yes we meet 70 uh we'll say every couple of days sometimes more sometimes less we'll see uh it depends on the roster but we've got a large cast of characters then we go and hunt ghosts uh not in character but you know we are scp authors and scp community people so uh we know a thing or two about handling ghosts and demons and but not so uh come check that out we have a lot of fun and with that thank you all very much for tuning in we hope you enjoyed the show and we will see you in the next one yeah good night but once was a man named stanley who people considered so manly but truth must be told he was not very old and was quite particularly gangly what stanley liked most was buttons he pushed them like some kind of glutton he did it all day in a meaningful way but his brain had long ceased to function which is why he is in this parable and lives in existence quite terrible and if you are not strong and keep playing along
