      @@darklord884 At least when you see "Containment Impossible" on something, you know they have tried to contain it, albeit unsuccessfully. SCP: Unnecessary, on the other hand, is a phrase that is antithetical to the Foundation, who's whole goal is to contain everything anomalous.
      On an article like 610, "containment impossible" simply means that the traditional lock-it-in-a-box containment can't occur, and they have to have extensive procedures to keep it away from people, and generally do so successfully.

      Not really. Christianity, Judaism and Islam are the three biggest religions on Earth. Statistically, that means a good deal of people who write these articles about gods and magic and monsters and the apocalypse are naturally going to approach the task from a perspective informed by all the myths and stories that their cultures are steeped in.
      And how many cultures in the last few centuries haven't shed at least a little blood on the altar of YHWH (willingly or otherwise)?

    The Scarlet King, according to Dust and Blood, lives in an unending state of anguish and pain. He is filled with hatred. If he were to come into contact with SCP-999 this evil would dissipate and he would be a threat no longer. The "son of the third brute" is fuelled by his pain and hatred and an overwhelming sense of suicidal depression, wishing to no longer exist. If 999 were to cure his depression, he might even become benevolent.

      Same; I feel it’s more narratively satisfying. If it really was something more horrifying than anyone can possibly imagine, then whatever the procedure “really” is can’t possibly live up to anyone’s expectations. Being a bedtime story shrouded by an elaborate lie that it’s actually the most evil of necessary evils not only defuses any gross, rape-y undertones it would have had, but it also makes the Foundation seem more clever than cruel- they know they can’t defeat the Scarlet King, but they do know what rules he plays by, and by using those rules to their advantage they can keep him at bay until they figure out a way to destroy the Scarlet King for good.

    “the dragon waits in shadows, his breath will scorch the land. the hero in the castle draws his sword and makes his stand.
    the princess in the tower is hidden far away. but nothing under heaven can keep The Groom at bay.
    they gather round with leering smiles, the soulless and the dead. though her soul unwinds, the cruelest minds will keep her in her bed.
    the potter told his 'prentice to prepare him seven jars. six he made with grace and skill, the last his hands did mar.
    the cretin moon no more is howling, gone its mourning black. in their dreams its face is prowling, come to take them back.
    the King is in his courting clothes, the brides are in their beds. the unborn princes wait in sleep to raise their eager heads.
    the hens were in the henhouse and seven eggs did lay, till the fox crept in by dark of night and stole the eggs away.
    six were broken by their bindings six no more shall sing. comes the seventh full unwinding and all the bells will ring.
    when the first had given birth, then all the birds did sing. her screaming cries did shake the skies, as she called out for her King.
    by doctor's blade the second bade a life into the world. untimely hewn neath a silent moon, the King's red flag unfurled.
    his bride the third remained unheard, her cries for help ignored. she stopped her life with a surgeon's knife, and gave it to Our Lord.
    the fourth prepares a dagger and places it at her heart. the perfect cure cannot make pure what the King has set apart.
    the fifth one's crown was bearing down upon the fox's set. the den was sundered with mighty thunder, an apocalypse beget.
    on the sixth's day, the walls gave way, and the oceans turned to ash. her birth gave work, as the earth shook, underneath the King's fell lash
    the seventh bride will break, the tides the moon no more will shine. there comes a day not far away she'll birth the death of time.”

His hands slightly shake as he reaches for the door, finally finding the courage to step in. Then, as he does, he finds a sound system installed at the entrance that keeps playing these sounds while in a soundproofed room, a soft-spoken D-class is reading a bedtime story for a small pregnant girl.
    This image of the horrific becoming kind of heartwarming through the idea of an illusion just makes me happy. Especially considering the f@cking nightmare fuel the researchers commit to contain the bloody deer god.

    Nice utilization of a picture of The Crimson King from The Dark Tower series. I'm a fan, I have his sigil tattooed on the back of my neck.
    Im, uh... not...an acolyte, or anything...in case there are any SCP Agents reading this....just a neat design and I'm a big Stephen King nerd...

    "The Scarlet Crusade has begun. The King of the Dark Below has arrived.
    May the Tree of Knowledge burn.
    Mekhane is broken.
    Yaldabaoth has fled.
    Rakmou Leusan is dead.
    The Hanged King's cacophony plays for our Lord.
    The Lord of Fives fades.
    The Factory's forges never cease.
    The Prince of Faces remains loyal to his crown.
    The Fae gods have been extinguish.
    The Crown of Asem and the Lance that slays gods are missing.
    The original sons and daughters of Adam of the crimson skies are no more for the abyss has taken the line of Apollyon.
    For the golden age of man has fallen.
    He Who Made Dark's arrival is soon.
    The Scarlet King with his Seven Seals shall cast down the throwns of the Brothers Death.
    For the Tree shall burn and Darkness shall prevail.
    For the son of He Who Made Dark shall set us free.
    And the bonds of He Who Made Light shall be set to ashes.
    May the Almighty weep at the face of the world's end and the fall of the heroes of man for profanity shall take them as our king arrives."

    I honestly like the idea of the Montauk procedure just being a bedtime story. With how the foundation is built on using lies and amnestics to protect people from the truth, it isn’t out of the range of possibility.
    Then again, I also like the idea of it being a torture procedure... in the SCP universe, there have been many people who have suffered and died in their mission to save the world. They’re all tragic heroes, and the girl is no different.

    Scp 999 must actually be scp-001 when day breaks, I am somehow convinced scp 001 thinks of itself as a kind and benevolent being much like how 999 is actually a kind and benevolent being. Perhaps 999 became scp-001 to absorb all life to gather strength to overthrow the scarlet king

    I've always really wished I could come into contact with SCP-999 since I have to take so much medicine to control my depression and have to take sedatives to control my anxiety. The only natural form of medicine I've discovered is hugging my dogs, but I can't take them everywhere lol.
