dana scully with gun post for other gay freaks

[the-dumpster-fire-of-anxiety]

Action pose, color, and texture practice featuring various MTF members who have been tragically [DATA EXPUNGED], one Alto Clef, and one unkillable D-class whose name and tale I am unable to recall at time of posting (past 2 am) but who's haunted me for the last 6 months by being remarkably good at surviving deadly explorations. I wanted to make these into a series based on an inside joke, and I might still do that once i've actually slept. Hopefully will be able to update over the weekend and do some more stuff, esp Dr. Rights! Rambling about various notes below the cut.

Deliberately went for a black and white look on the MTF uniforms, trying to experiment with texture and shading while accounting for a) limited shades of grey and b) mediocre camera quality. This isn't something you'd wear to hide per sé, but it works well in an alternate reality.

Sketches are arranged by order in which I found the poses. I was initially gonna do all 6 as MTFs, but the dual-gun was so stupid and absurd I had to put Clef in it. If it wasn't obvious, the first agent is attacking an eldritch creature off-screen, second one is scrambling as a whirlpool (dimensional) is forming, third one is charging into a barehands fight, and the fourth is releasing an explosive midair. None of them are likely to live but that's not the goal here.

Clef's shirt is based off of one I own but simplified and he is, in fact, wearing lime green crocs. Lowkey actually peeved that i can't remember anything about the D-class except a vague summary of the scp she was in but she was so wonderfully written and interesting to me that I can't help imagining all the weird shit she'd survived until that moment, and the shit she'd run into in the coming future. Both of her and Clef's backgrounds can be interpreted as a reality bender fucking with them, or as a dramatic fight effect (or, in Clef's case, he thought it would look cool and who are we to stop him). I am so damn tired and I did not draw the guns correctly but i cannot care atp, they're done and they didn't bleed into the sketch, and that is all one can ask for past 2 am. happy scp everyone

searching for leviathan bones in the hebra tundra. from my oc zelda fic which you can find here

lore under the cut

the fur hood was made from a great-horned rhino. they resided in the highlands and hebra mountains until gleeoks and people hunting them (estan's silence on this topic is deafening) drove them to near extinction.

aubri and her yiga companion (his alias is twigs. i'm tired of calling him data expunged that bit has ran its course) encounter one of the last on their hebra trek, having barely escaped a gleeok, but slowly dying from its wounds. twigs wants to save it (misanthropic vegan that he is) but aubri elects the humane choice would be a mercy kill.

after which they clash again over their beliefs; aubri thinks every part of it should be made use of: cook its meat, sell its valuable tusks, make armour from its hide. because it's dead anyways who gaf. but twigs believes every part of its body needs a burial to pass on.

eventually she compromises to just shave its mane - it's not technically a fixed part of its body so it doesn't count.

burial is as important to the yiga as it is for the sheikah - fail to do so and they'll remain in this world as malevolent spirits. i think even if they killed link they'd give him that rite purely because they'd otherwise be haunted by his unfunny pranks for eternity.

it's also why they left dorian's wife in the underground well labyrinth - they knew she'd be a particularly determined vengeful spirit even when buried, so it keeps the spirit lost.

and if you got this far: bonus doodles!

PREDICTION TIME!

So Today is (Presumably) the last day in Tetro before everything goes to SHIT and someone gets murked. So with the eventual [DATA EXPUNGED] I thought Id throw my hat in the ring and predicts who’s next on the chopping block! (SPOILERS AHEAD)

As of rn, we have a fuck ton of people I think could get reasonably murked this chapter, but I feel like there is one speofic that is on the “That Bitch gonna die” list that just makes me feel that vibe. However, before that, let’s talk about the rest.

Kamimura and Hiroaki: I don’t wanna rule these fuckers out in case I’m wrong but my current theory is each person that is the “Protagonist” of the 5 trials are going to be our survivor list. Slowly vuilding up overtime till we have our 5. I don’t want to say immediately they’re immune cause if I’m wrong I’m gonna look fucking stupid, but they do feel like the least likely to die… To me atleast.

Tamba and Hama: They has not done near enough this chapter to warrant being Murked. Tamba has… really just not done a whole lot ever since Chiba’s passing beside some brief help with the restaurant. And Hama has done a lot less than what I was expecting… He’s had a few brief interactions here and there but he seems mostly to have moved on from what I’ve seen… Maybe

Watari, Ojima, and Hasegawa: These three feel like they’re going to survive but also are reading… Very strong death flags. Ojima in specific feels like he’s gonna do a Rule Violation and get shanked by Monomoko, but I could also see him as a potential murder victim. Watari and Hasegawa are in the same vein, but neither of them feel like Monokoko murking victims, (Maybe Watari, wouldn’t Okazaki hate that?) but they do feel like Murder Victims.

Yanagi and Hayashi: Oh these two are tipping that fucking edge agaiiiin. Yanagi in particular feels like very much going to fucking die. Hayashi I wouldn’t bet on as the victim, but I could see her as a Killer or rulebreaker. Either way, I can see both of them living but the chances are sliiiim.

Tsuno and Okazaki: One of these fuckers is dying. Calling it now. If it’s not Tsuno, It’s Okazaki. Vice Versa applies as well. While I don’t see either of them as victims I am putting them very high on the “Snap and Kills” list. Okazaki because she’s fucking mad in the head and Tsuno… Well I don’t wanna place bets in case I’m wrong but I have my theories about her…

Finally… With all said in done… There’s only one purpose that remains. And while I don’t want to say for certain… I think we’ve found our next victim of the game…

Masanari Wada

Heavy focus from the chapter, to the point of a dedicated itch.io game. Mid-arc. Likely to be heavily effected by the motive. Is just generally getting beat down in general. And of course… Is very fucking easy to kill right now. I fear for this little dude, because truth is I don’t WANT Wada to die, because holy hell would he not deserve it but also… I do think him dying is one of the most likely outcomes…

Anyways that’s all. Let me know your victim thoughts! Have a great day!

[windupaidoneus]

I know I've sent you an ask already that you're working on HOWEVER. I am politely asking to hear about amarith :3 idk what specifically but just, whatever you want to talk about with him. Because be sounds really intresting. Smiles big and wide. If you need more specific questions tho I'm sure I can find some

(spoken ominously) amarith............. there May be some spoilery stuff there but i feel like at this point you've gotten most of the gist of what's going on??

amarith is essentially an alternate universe version of hilde. like pretty literally. in her world she's an elezen equivalent, has been scorned & isolated her entire life & escaped servitude & certain lifelong pain by chance (the place she was kept in started caving in, she ran best she could). she found the dilapidated house that became her home & started living there. she's heavily traumatised, & experiences delusions that bring her comfort - the house being her palace, and herself the princess. but she's alone & afraid, because there are assassins out to get her & no one there to protect her, neither can she defend herself, because she's simply a damsel in distress & nothing else.

enter (claps hands) him

'cause he's got to keep busy, he's good at building up empires then causing their downfall, & in this instance he was ensuring everything went according to keikaku with the rejoining in his free time by scouring the land. though he was subconsciously attracted by. well. the fact that is an alternate hilde. another piece of the puzzle that was [data expunged] (jk youve seen his name. lachesis). this was during the fourth calamity btw to situate it. the one that happened with the allagan empire. obviously there wasn't an allagan empire in amarith's world but like that's the equivalent you get it

so Not Emet (totally him BUT hes a cat because i do what i want?) kind of barges into that really fucked up house, he got alerted by Something but can't put his finger on what, & here she comes, all meek & gentle, clearly excited to have a visitor & welcoming him into her "palace" then apologising profusely for not making it homely enough bc she didn't know someone would be coming! & he's kind of. didn't expect that. taken aback. ends up sticking around because she invites him to take any food he likes (she has barely anything but grows her own crops since the soil around is surprisingly fertile & that's the only thing she's got going for her really) & to make himself at home. & that's the only company she'll get until she dies

now she's in the delusion more often than not, but when she isn't she's more... melancholic. toned down. she apologises to him for making him stay in this place, that he absolutely doesn't have to, & that she'll be living her life either way. though this can hardly be called living considering the circumstances. but he sticks around without giving much of a reason, cleans up the house some here & there when he feels enclined (she doesn't really notice bc. well.) & amarith is just really happy to have him around because Finally she has company. she also has sickness though. as the world grows closer to being blasted to smithereens the air becomes worse, harder to breathe, & amarith was already of fragile constitution so she's pretty badly affected by it once it reaches her, and quickly too. she knows she's going to die soon too but she's happy enough with the company she has

one thing about amarith is that she wishes she was stronger than she is. capable of protecting others instead of being protected. she wishes she could be a princely knight but she's "just a weak & frail princess". she's accepted her lot but she does yearn for like... being able to be more than that. Not Emet tells her of warriors of light & it both makes her eyes sparkle & her heart hurt. she wants to be one of them so bad. she wishes. so hard. but it's not meant to be (the fourth rejoining approaching from behind very loudly (which will merge her into the soul that hildegarde is (effectively making her a wol

& of course the amarith writing that makes you (me) cry

^ funny as hell! (i feel a horrible ache in my chest whenever i reread it)

as of present amarith is one of hildegarde's headmates. transgender acquired! he's started getting some memories back after shadowbringers but before that he was basically just like. Nice Hildegarde (hilde isnt mean but hes also really not the pinnacle of optimism... i mean look at him). getting memories back is what really made them all realise there's something going on in the head. he's REALLY fond of hancock bc now he is more capable he is absolutely delighted to have someone who offers him help while HE can help BACK! & he's actually really thrilled that he gets to do the objectively harder work. dream come true for him. it also took him a bit to really take in that so many people like & care for him

now this also means he had to process emet being dead after remembering him & it uh did not go well. he went dormant after it sank in. he's back now but he sure had to take some time off of existing there

amarith is the designated paladin of the system (because of course he is) as well as the summoner! i thought summoner would be fun since it's an allagan practice & he got rejoined during the allagan calamity. Lol

AITA for accidentally making my former girlfriend cause World War 1?

I never thought I would write something like this, but my therapist suggested this and... Yeah.

So I ( 19f) used to live in Vienna before the first world war- Before... Things happened and all that. ( I still can't believe there were two world wars, not just one). I was a psychiatrist and often advocated for equal rights ( I'm part of a minority group that was discriminated against in Vienna). My former girlfriend (18f) was a a hugely popular opera singer, but she suffered from severe mental health issues and was subject to horrible treatments for her condition ( She was also part of the same minority group). She was my patient as well and I really tried my best to help her.

After one particular therapy session, we were walking down the streets of Vienna. I kind of... Talked myself in rage over the oppression we were facing. How Vienna, despite all its beauty, was a superficial shithole beneath it all. How we were never seen one to one with humans. And how I wanted things to change, how I wanted to change things myself. I talked about a paradise I was dreaming of ( I guess the particular word choice stuck with her...)

Well, my former girlfriend joined a cult and orchestrated alongside other cult members a sort of mass hysteria that took over the world. People started experiencing [DATA EXPUNGED] Syndrome and several assassinations all over Europe were carried out. This led to an early declaration of World War 1. This kickstarted the [DATA EXPUNGED] and led to me losing everything and everyone dear to me. Now I'm not even living in the time period I'm supposed to be in. Just a lost refugee, someone who shouldn't have survived instead of all the other citizens of Vienna.

I can't face my former girlfriend anymore. I couldn't save her. She believed she was doing a good thing. Thought killing every human would lead to the paradise I would have wanted. The worst thing about it is that she didn't do it out of her own conviction. She did what she thought I would have wanted. I even had to use hypnosis on her to guarantee she didn't destruct further. Me, using hypnosis! The practice I despise! And yet...

I just can't keep carrying this guilt.

Distraction (all hail empress pink au) (art by kishinpain)

(Priyanka): activates something on her wrist communicator as she presses a few holographic buttons projecting from it

"My diamond here is the intel report you requested"

Yellow glances at her own screen, almost immediately harvesting every mote of data and sifting out what was necessary from what wasn't. "Pull it up for the others, Director, that's why we're here," Yellow disinterestedly ordered, almost derisively, as if it was obvious what she wanted before she spoke. Asriel's ears and eyes perked reflexively upon hearing 'Director' before remembering that's Prianka's title too.

(Priyanka): presses another holographic button

the display table in the middle of the room lights up and projects the same report for everyone in the room to see

(Empress Pink): looks at the report and she puffs her cigarillo

Yellow takes notice of the gaping wound into Authority space in the form of a bright red membrane around several notable systems, prompting this very meeting on counterstrategies. More subtle but not lost on her was the bend in the table where Prime Minister Asriel was gripping it. "Pink, I know it's not my place anymore, but it might be best to put that out before the Prime minister explodes." Her smirk died early as the table snapped in his grip, black eyes scowling acid daggers at her, occasionally snapping to the lit smoke.

(Empress Pink) looks at asriel as she blows smoke from her nose "All these years and you still can not tolerate the smoke asriel?" takes one more puff of her cigarillo before putting it out the pearl on her necklace begins to glow she stores the cigarillo in the pearl, afterwhich the pearl's glow fades "Is that better?" She says as smoke comes from her mouth

the smell of her pink diva flavored cigarillo lingering throughout the room

(Priyanka): "Now then, prime minister do you have any thoughts?"

(Empress pink) looks at asriel trying not to laugh "Quit being such a drama queen asriel it is not that bad"

Asriel released a breath he didn't know he was holding, before being assaulted by the stink on his next. Coughing up a storm he made a great show of expunging his insides of the smoke before going so far as to light a fire with his powers and breathe through that instead. It would be comical, even ridiculous if the monster's murderous hatred of smoking wasn't known to the other three. Once this display was done however his first question was immediately to the point. "What's preventing a pincer response?" he asked through the flame. "Either an imbalance of power or a lack of initiative from the commanders in the region," Yellow answered. "Given some of Pink's own are there it's almost certainly the former, is that correct Director?"

Calling in from the Corsair Mercenary Company. I uh won't disclose my name so the bosses can't trace this back to me but is there any way to fake the idea that we cycled our NHP. The ship we're on has "Stabby" our BOSUN NHP just used for managing cleaning bots and other tasks. She's due to be cycled and I'm trying to find a way past that. If you folks got any ideas shoot em my way cause I don't see the point. She's doing her job just the same and even interacting with the crew more vibrantly. I'm up to try anything to keep her well... her. Signing off "Backtalker" //ERROR I.D EXPUNGED\\

Yes, you can fake this and it's much easier to fake than you would think. Get in contact with a Horizon Collective Repair Shop, and they will put you in contact with some specialists. The closer you are to a shop the easier this will be but if you can omninet link that should be enough. If you're good at tech stuff, someone should be able to walk you through the process.

The most basic way to explain this is that it will involve you briefly sidelining Stabby by disconnecting her from the main systems and putting a decoy comp/con loaded with junk data so it looks superficially like an NHP in her place. Then you'll cycle the comp/con standing in for her (this does nothing to a comp/con of course) and then you will swap Stabby back into her usual place. It's much more complicated to execute than I made it sound, but our experts can walk you and Stabby through it.

Do note that in the time when Stabby is disconnected from the cycling system, she will be without her normal senses that she gets through the ship. You might want to build a backup sensory rig for her. It's not going to last very long, but no one wants to be entirely without their senses for even a few minutes. Plugging a simple camera and microphone into her so she can watch you work will probably make the process easier for her.

Rules in Site-97.

"Due to the fact that because of SOMEONE (I won't even write the name of this person, you all guessed who I'm talking about) some new rules are being introduced in order to at least minimally increase efficiency and safety:

1. Do NOT touch the SCP-8001 under any circumstances, leave Killian alone. After the recent incident with SCP-8001-K-1, the poor guy needs some rest... And a good surgeon.

2. Don't overfeed Pearl with candy and don't let her into the classified database, even if she has 'the most adorable puppy eyes.' (I know this sounds almost impossible to all of us, but let's pretend that we are at least a little bit responsible adults.)

3. Do not give flammable objects, sharp or pointed objects, or even chainsaws to Dr. Koenig. This is not up for discussion.

4. Don't piss off Dr. Spitzwerg, we all have to remember that he literally oozes electricity and no one wants to get electrocuted, right? I remember that because Dr. Spitzwerg was too stressful, we had short circuits.

5. Don't piss off SCP-8066-1 (Liam B.), or else the incident with him will happen again. We do NOT want to become cats again, it has greatly reduced our productivity. (Dr. Radomiro, don't try to become a cat again so you don't have to do reports again, I can see that.)

6. Please prohibit SCP-8021 from playing 'Rickroll' or any other 'meme' during our meetings. And just don't let him access the internet, we all know how that will end.

7. Don't swear in front of Pearl, I somehow managed to wean her off saying 'Damn'. If someone breaks this rule, then they will go to work on the SCP-[DATA EXPUNGED].

8. No explosions or teleportation, understood, Dr. Koenig? (and don't touch my whiskey supply.)

9. Stop calling me Radio Man, it's getting boring.

10. For the staff in the cafeteria: Do NOT give all the sweets to Pearl, no matter what, you must strictly follow the rules. I don't want to see that picture again - a huge table covered with all kinds of sweets, and my daughter sitting on a child's chair and eating like a little piggy. After all, she may have health problems. We don't need an innocent child to suffer for stomach pain.

11. Dr. Puff, stop eating that [DATA EXPUNGED], seriously, did you eat the rest of the SCP-[DATA EXPUNGED]?

12. Dr. Koenig, do not attempt to violate any of these rules or you will be assigned to write a report on Incident [DATA EXPUNGED].

13. Don't burn documents. Yes, I'm talking about you again, Dr. Koenig. You burned the Ethics Committee reports again.

14. Dr. Grain, please remove these horrible flytraps.

15. Don't give the electric guitar SCP-8066-1 until I tell you to.

16. Due to the incident with the SCP-8020, we will have to change the codes every day.

17. Dr. Silver, stop laughing, I can hear you laughing from your lab.

18. If you see that Pearl has markers, do not leave her alone with the documents, otherwise she will draw smiley faces or a rainbow on them.

19. Dr. Petit, stop leaving macarons in my office, it won't make me come to your therapy session.

20. SCP-8021, stop ruining documents and bothering our IT department. Last time you ruined Dr. Puff's document with gifs of dancing cats. (I know you're reading this right now.)

21. Stop testing the limits of my patience."

- Sincerely, Director of Site-97.

thank u for explaining a bit more here

“what happened to you?” pomni if ⎍ don’t mind i’m fine with anything

This is really bad because idk how to write Pomni and I got lazy but uh here

What Happened to You?

[609 words]

Ragatha made a quick bee-line to her room after dinner, Pomni noticed.

It made sense, all throughout the feast she seemed slightly off, even though Pomni hardly knew her, she could tell. The doll just looked like she was holding back a continuous frown, like she wanted to break down the happy exterior and let it be known she was hurting.

Something Pomni knew was she could tell people’s feelings. They felt like her own feelings, how strongly she felt them.

So she knew she had to go apologize.

The jester walked along, fumbling with her hands together. Going over what she might say. Just because she could connect well with people’s feelings, didn’t mean she could handle them very well. What were the comfort words again?

“I’m sorry,” she practiced, “or- I’m sorry.”

She cussed under her breath, the noise replaced by a cartoonish honking.

“BEEP!, I wish I knew what to say…” Pomni stared at her gloved palms as she walked.

Eventually she came to the door, and hesitated as she grab held of the knob. A slow, painful turn later and the door pushed open, gulping loud at the anxiety of it all.

Ragatha sat on her bed, facing away from the door. She looked sad, shoulders slumped and heavy sighing.

Or, heavy breathing.

Suddenly, Pomni could see the glitching effect over her arms and hair. But that didn’t make sense, Caine had fixed them up, why would she-?

Until Pomni realized, this must be what abstracting looks like.

“Ragatha!”

The doll whipped around, her eyes filled with tears.

“I-“ Pomni reached out, like she hadn’t before, “I’m sorry.”

Ragatha bawled at that, arms open for embrace. Before Pomni could even process it, she rushed over, blindly being wrapped into a hug.

“I can’t- I can’t keep doing this,” Ragatha whispered out with a croak, “I can’t.”

“What can’t you do?” Pomni rubbed circles into her back.

“Just- pretending!” Ragatha cried, “I’m not okay!”

As she talked, the distortion started to fade.

Pomni went on, “You don’t have to pretend.”

Ragatha met her eyes, glossy with cartoonish tears dripping from them like ooze.

“I d-don’t?” She hiccuped.

Pomni smiled shyly, “Not around me.”

The doll glanced downwards, “Can I- we- do something that makes me feel better…? It’s weird- ah-“

“It’s okay,” Pomni promised.

Ragatha nodded solemnly, “…okay.”

And suddenly the doll was in Pomni’s hands, shrunk in the matter of a second. Pomni nearly flinched backwards, surprised, but she remained cool the best she could.

Ragatha held her arm, tiny and whimpering, “C-could you eat me?”

Pomni’s eyes widened into huge colorful pupils.

“S-sorry that’s weird-“ Ragatha seemed to be backtracking, “I’m-“

“I will,” Pomni blurted out, “I’ll do it.”

Ragatha stared up, hesitant to accept now. She just nodded, embarrassed.

Pomni lifted her up on her palms, bringing the tiny doll to her mouth. She didn’t hesitate to pop Ragatha inside, licking over her body to wet her up for the journey to her stomach.

She cradled Ragatha against the wet tongue, rolling it over her face, tasting salty tears that were leftover.

Pomni hummed softly as she gave a hard swallow, feeling the tiny Ragatha be pushed to the back of her throat. Another gulp and she was on her way down, squished and covered in spit from the esophagus’ tight hug.

The jester felt the small weight slip inside her stomach, a small bulge of her tummy protruding where Ragatha lay. She smiled, happy that she could cheer up the tiny and save her from the same terrible fate Kaughmo went through. Just the small action of caring, Pomni had helped Ragatha.

SCP#: ALJ

Code Name: Generals of Corruption

Object Class: Neutralized

Special Containment Procedures: Thankfully the last instance of SCP-ALJ was killed off in a private expedition of Site Director Nancy James. As such they no longer pose a threat and thus no containment procedures will be made. 

Description: SCP-ALJ is a strange and seemingly living form of fungi though whether it is sentient or not remains debated especially since the last instance is dead. These instances normally only stand either 5 to 7 inches and only have two legs that more resemble nubs as they have no visible joints and no toes at all. Initially each one is not considered dangerous to any humans or other living beings and can easily be crushed with a stomp of the foot. However, the same cannot be said for SCP-AEK instances. 

Like all fungi, SCP-ALJ are able to produce spores, which seem to be drawn to SCP-AEK instances, the result shows exactly why. When exposed to SCP-ALJ spores each SCP-AEK instance becomes purple and the leaves on their head become mushroom shape. They also serve under SCP-ALJ now and will attack anyone who gets too close to their new master. Though the effects can be reversed after the SCP-ALJ instance is killed, normally the corrupted SCP-AEK will give up their lives to prevent this. 

SCP-ALJ was discovered in 2002 when Site Director Nancy James went on another expedition to Japan in hopes to find more clues to the [data expunged]. However, she ended up encountering SCP-ALJ instances instead. Originally, she unleashed her army of SCP-AEK instances to attack them but after they got corrupted, she became enraged and started killing all the SCP-ALJ instances. Once they were all dead she went into a depression as she lost a great number of her SCP-AEK instances including a few she named such as “burny, hot shot, thunder bolt, zapper, zappy, drowner, bubbly, rock heart, hulk, and stinky.” The only reason the Foundation knows anything about any of the SCP-ALJ instances is because she had a body can on her while she was on her expedition. 

Site Director Nancy James was criticized by the O5 Council for hastily neutralizing the SCP-ALJ instances. However, she was not severely punished since she has been the only one to fully bond with the SCP-AEK instances. It has even gotten to the point she no longer has to whistle she can just give commands or point, and they will understand what she wants from them. As such, she was allowed to go back on her expeditions but so long as she had security units escorting her.

“Many have asked us why we indulge Nancy on her little expeditions to kill the supposed monster that will end the world herself. The reason is simple, it's the AEK instances, they are attached to her and her alone now, no one has ever been able to make them work and fight as effectively as she has. I am aware that there's little chance this monster even exists and given the creatures it has sent at us so far it's safe to say we can deal with it rather easily. However, the last time we left something to chance the world ended and the universe reset as a result… I won’t let that happened again” - O5-13

Incident 239-B - Clef-Kondraki

My analysis of the situation has led me to the conclusion that SCP-239 is an unacceptable containment and security risk. Although several proposals have been made re: using her for containing other SCPs, the example of SCP-953 and others must serve as a stark reminder of the risks of overestimating the Foundation's ability to control SCPs with reality-altering powers. I would therefore like to make the following proposal: a dagger will be constructed of SCP-148, capable of penetrating SCP-239's otherwise invincible skin. This weapon will be used to terminate SCP-239 while she is asleep and her powers are neutralized. Because of the danger of SCP-239 awakening and resisting termination, it is my recommendation that the selected operative carry SCP-668 as well, in order to minimize complications. One of the dangers of this procedure is the possibility that SCP-239 will awaken and perceive the operative as a friend or "good person," thus changing reality to match. It is for this reason that I would like to volunteer to carry out the procedure personally. A review of my personnel file should indicate that my [DATA EXPUNGED] should allow me to carry out the operation even after a reality shift of this nature. - Clef

All Alone On A Friday Night

"Hey, c'mon, the spot's open, yeah?" She looked around the table for someone to back her up, but Adams didn't look up from her phone and Jackie just looked very slightly tired, which was rare for her. "I don't care if it's open, I don't want you here," Iris pressed. A sudden groan came from Adams, drawing Stacey and Anne's attention. "My god, Iris, don't you like anyone?" She moaned.

Names [AU Info] - AvA / AvM Fan-Made

Stick City Government allows sticks to choose their "Registered Name". This means that if a stick hates their given filename, which is often the case, they are allowed to choose a name they want to go by.

The Monochromes

vic Monochrome - Originally victim. A calls him V.

Admin Void Walker - The A originated from the word Adorable, but is mostly short for The Admin. [Redacted] calls him 3, which is his original hex name.

Agent Monochrome-Void Walker - The name Agent came from A and the Gentleman.

H Monochrome-Void Walker - Originally Hangman. H comes from the fact that his head was drawn when Red incorrectly answered "H" in the Actual Short. This is also why Red is respected enough to be considered as H's parent.

Hunter

Pixel_Ballista - Sometimes PB.

The Void Walkers

[Redacted] Void Walker - [Redacted] is not his actual name. It's just that every and all mentions of his name is Filtered or Redacted. This is a result of Incognito's abilities.

Incognito Void Walker - [Data Expunged]

Eyes Void Walker and Hazard/Sign - They both don't use their names often (Cam and Signal), because it reminds them of their Creators. But they use it on each other when they're alone or talking in Morse Code Signals.

Not Registered in the Stick City Archives

These two are also the main villains of the AU.

The Benefactor - Doesn't have an original filename. As far as the city knows, he just showed up one day.

Static - Her name is written like that because no one remembers it. If she tells them her name, it just sounds static to everyone's ears. This is also a result of Incognito's abilities. It's why she desperately wants revenge against the Void Walkers that she teamed up with The Benefactor.

Author's Note

I know I said before that everybody is a he. But please bear with me here, I can't make up my mind on some of them.

A is a he in stick figure form, but she in human form.

Hunter, Eyes, and probably Static too are she's.

The rest of them are he's.

Take note that the Ability to Procreate doesn't require a stick to be a she. Will explain more about this in the future.

"Ohhh my goodness, look at you!" Pyriel coos, holding Lamb's face in her hooved hands, squishing its cheeks in an affectionate manner as she continued admiring their cuteness. "In all seriousness, you have been taking care of yourself, yes?" She poses a question to them, keeping her hands upon their face, now examining their features, just in case something was off.

"The both of us know that you have to keep yourself in check every once in a while, hm?" She muses to herself, then removing her hooved hands from their face as she finishes her examination of Lamb's wellbeing. "Everything seems to be fine, from what I see. But anything that you want to add, Dearest Lamb?"

2, 3,4,5,6,7 for Moni and Retro on the character ask please. i love hearing about your characters

houuhghghjK i will do my best to answer retro's half, though i'll open with some behind the scenes that might shed some clarity on neo-a's weird existence in the real world.

Neo Automisia came about after I'd been playing Moni in a shadowrun living community for like 3 years, and after a point where i decided I wanted to break from that system's lore/canon out of desire to write my own shit and also out of disagreement with a lot of SR's writing- irl i've never really grown up in places or had the same friend groups for more than 3 years at a time, and my experience in making friends has been a series of meetings and farewells since I was little.

Ironically enough this's how a lot of my time playing Moni wound up being- games in the living community were sign-ups as opposed to set player groups and set tables you'd normally expect from a tabletop setting- think billboard with job postings kinda vibes, with things happening during/after/between jobs. As such, at least when it comes to fellow runners/key npcs, I'm doing my best to translate friends characters I've not gotten to really play with/hear from in years- or at least haven't had space TO do things with, life happens/things get busy etc etc you get it. Retro is OracleofMaya's wonderful gremlin, and a lot of my ability to write consistent/in-character dialogue for her comes from the fact that we talked/wrote a LOT over the years and i have an active crush on her/like writing stuff with her u///u

Long lead in over here we go:

It really depends on circumstances for the both of them- they're incredibly awkward and dealing with a lot of baggage individually/mutually, but with the right company they tend to light up. In Moni's case if worst comes to worst, she's anxious enough that even in bad company/bad circumstances she'll still titter out a giggle before realizing this isn't the time nor place.

[DATA EXPUNGED]

From my time playing alongside Retro, it never felt exactly an easy thing to earn her trust; partly due to the fact of her being a technomancer in a world that readily exploits and/or abuses them to the nth degree, and partly due to the fact that a lot of the people she and Moni worked with were either opportunistic or WAY too prone to oversharing critical information. Add [DATA EXPUNGED] to the mix and its really hard to blame her for shutting others down or out but again right company/right circumstances made all the difference in exceptions or changing that.

On Moni's end, her depression and various horribly negative experiences with people she loved or trusted have oriented her, for the most part, not to trust other people- or at least, that's the direction she tries to orient herself toward in some attempt to protect herself, and others from her. That obviously hasn't and doesn't work up to the current point in chapter 3, as Moni is basically an easily excitable puppy in a metahuman's shape.

In Retro's case, extremely- I have zero doubts that had Moni ever not kept self-vigilance up and spilled the beans regarding Retro being a technomancer, Retro WOULD have made good on that promise to fry her brain.

Distrust is fluid for Moni/liable to shift and change with circumstances and her mood- in this case I'm going to opt to make a slight shift and say that, with specific and wrong buttons pushed, it is very, very, very easy to earn a lethal grudge from Moni as opposed to solely distrust.

Both Moni and Retro are not only Nightrunning criminals for hire, but also staunch Anarchists living in the hellscape that is late stage capitalism and continued global warming/corporations having just about zero regulatory oversight or consequence placed on them. Laws on paper are not synonymous with justice or systemic equity, and both growing up in the fringes of the Seattle metroplex 100% plays into how they see the reality of how those laws actually play out in favor of the rich, powerful, and influential.

In the time I played with Oracle, Retro's nostalgia often times followed similar patterns to Moni if that tracks; both of them are rooted through warped sentimentalities and fractured memories for pasts they either can't fully remember, or remember in better contexts and through rose-tinted glasses than honestly- at least for a time. I don't wanna spoil too much in this regard, nor for the more positive ways they hold nostalgia for genuinely nice times/moments, so that's all I'm gonna say.

For Moni: 22. Jealousy is weird for Moni, because it's only really ever happened when Retro had started seeing/dating(?) a magical psychologist character of mine who has a hate boner against moni and vice versa. Moni herself is polyam, pan, and for the most part easygoing when it comes to interpersonal relationships; she doesn't really have explicit desire for material stuff barring cybernetics to cram into her meat suit, or good food tucked in the pockets and hole-in-the-wall joints of wherever she's living. Even in the case of the aforementioned psychologist, the jealousy stemmed more out of her overt fear of a mage who could root through, tweak, or otherwise puppet your brain like a marionette. 23. Envy is also weird- as mentioned the material things she does want are things she has zero problem waiting or saving for, and when it comes to relationships/the relationships of her partners and metamours she's open/patient. But a core piece of Moni I'm in the process of explicitly laying out/continuing to lay out is her absolute impulsiveness- the things that she DOES envy are immaterial and more abstract, in ways that to most would just sound like complete nonissues. It's something yet to be brought up, but Moni genuinely envies her peers and coworkers who have or are working toward a definite retirement plan, or have the intention TO retire because they have something in mind. For Moni at this point, she did not for one second in her career think about what retiring might look like or that she could/should- it was utterly foreign to be asked "what're you going to do after you're done running?", and to look inward only to find an answer along the lines of "what?". She envies people that have desires beyond what's immediately in front of them- not because they have it better, but because for all of her attempts to she can't figure out what she wants- no matter how hard she tries there's something missing that, to her at least, makes her feel like she was never supposed to be metahuman. This's one example but you get the gist, it's wanting to feel like you know where you're going and where you want to go/otherwise self actualize and feeling like you're drowning.
