mystery flesh pit national park from the arg

Permian Basin Superorganism. Located in Gumption, Texas. Turned into an explorable tourist attraction from 1976-2007. Unique and familiar organs with its own ecosystem of ancient and evolved species distinct from the rest of the modern world. Unique organs include hot-spring-like pods containing a potent aphrodisiac. Digestive acids calcify when mixed with antacid, no real cure. Possibly ocean-dwelling in origin. Body count of at least 800 human lives

Reminder, the premise is “would a normie think it’s weird to find them attractive?” (Would they have to “hear me out?”)

My idea for a MFP movie goes like that: typical suburban family decides to go to a trip on there. While the trip they go camping and the typical rebellious teen that has a ton of sense more than her parents nope the fuck out of that and says nope nuh huh I am staying in the surface. Maybe the small kid is also (understandably) scared of "going into the monster" and the parents lecture the teen but then let her on the surface facility with the kid while they go walking in the entrails of that beast. Teen says they're crazy but stays there. Parents cry about her ruining a perfectly good July 4th holiday.

Cue to montage of parents being deep there when tremors start to shake everything and teen and kid having to withstand fleeing the surface facility when the tremors begun and maybe even lost each other. Teen calls parents and parents keep trying to call the kids but no luck until they find one of those scary blue phones. They have a few words before all eletric energy is cut and teen is all cut from parents.

The rest of the movie is simply playing people going crazy due to contact to gastric ejecta and teen trying to find the younger siblings amidst chaos+ the three intrapit creatures wrecking havoc after being rudely thrown up into the hostile world. The end is just the teen and the sibling meeting again, but tremors continue. After that it's just the news of that thing waking up and causing chaos and about the park closong down. It closes with Trevor (creator) asking this now grown up teen about what happened to try to put together how this place worked. His room is full of stuff from the park. The teen hands him a shirt that's in perfect state of the 2007 july 4th disaster. Trevor thanks and tries to say sorry for her parents but she stosp him because anyone that was dumb enough to climb into hell shouldn't be pitied. Trevor nods and they part ways. Film closes with trevor overseeing a collection of stuff to ve ready to descend into the flesh pit again because this gives a nice cliffhanger and I mean, what would complete a special interest better than visiting the site it all happened

Copepods

Sourced from ocean encyclopedia

Mystery Flesh Pit inspired cut-paper poetry.

Text under the cut

"Copepods

Long crustaceans

Drifting creatures

They feed.

They feed on other living things and

Human beings have entered the food chain"

This is SO INCREDIBLY COOL! As someone who’s been in a pretty damn large earthquake(rrrrright on the Ring of Fire), this is also a really accurate representation of what it’s like to be in one! :]

This video captures a live emergency alert broadcast from August of 2018. For Texas residents of the eastern permian basin, these kinds of alerts and alarms are somewhat common. Though the tremors and ejecta of these small events are quite minimal when compared to the larger 2007 event, they are still a point of danger and are taken seriously by those who live and work around the permian basin superorganism.  [ Update: A Discord has been created by Mystery Flesh Pit fans and can be accessed (here) ]

just said aloud "i could jerk off to any spreadsheet stone cold sober" (referencing the post abt Rothko ofc) but i dont think thats actually true, because a whole lot of spreadsheets are about some """economic""" business major finance garbage, and i couldnt jerk off to that if you had me on some shit that only exists in homebrew dnd campaigns

[sketchy-scribs-n-doods]

went to the mystery meat cave to get some T and all i got was T (as previously mentioned)

[panthera-ephemera]

still going with the thought that floory is somehow connected to the mystery flesh pit

July 4th 2007: *rains*

The Permian Basin Superorganism:

[mysteryfleshpitnationalpark2]

- **~14.8 M.Y.A.**

A common ancestor of both the Amorphous Shame (*Mustela subterrana*) and Long-Tailed Weasel (*Mustela frenata*) enters an orifice of the Permian Basin Superorganism.

- **11.2 M.Y.A.**

*Mustela subterrana* begins to elongate in form to better navigate the anatomical interpit environment.

- **4 M.Y.A.**

Adaptation to the caustic environment has left the Amorphous Shame hairless, toothless, and blind. Liquid bolus from environmental processes provide sustenance.

- **1.3 M.Y.A.**

A life spent sucking at nutrient nodes has atrophied the muscles and skeleton of *Mustela subterrana*. Eyes and limbs are completely vestigial.

Happy Fourth of July everypony! On this day in 2007 the Permian Basin Superorganism Natural Preserve experienced a catastrophic disaster which resulted in over 700 casualties! Stay safe out there!

fuck me. why did i do this.

[cryptic-cowboy]

ok so since the mystery flesh pit national park is in texas, and cowboys are also in Texas probably, at least one cowboy has visited the permian basin superorganism (sorry, my various hyperfixations are colliding in my brain and there’s nothing i can do to stop it)
