Oh wow, this is unexpected lol. This was the first article I wrote for what later became REDTAPE, nearly… three years ago now. It’s rough as hell around the edges but I still appreciate it, I was just a little too ambitious for my storytelling skills at the time lol. Honestly didn’t expect it to get any attention now all these years later, lmao. Still, thankya!
Sleepy me will enjoy it no matter what
@ROUNDERHOUSE dude, this is what I needed to listen to after the shift I just had. Keep up the good work.
Wuz poppin Rounder, congrats on being featured!
I'm happy it's getting some attention here. Based on the few comments I see already, ppl seem to like it, so nice work!
You had to walk here to be able to run in Amoni-Ram and Mamjul & Korar
I won't lie, as the D Class's body started to change, taller, thinner, harder to kill, I fully expected this to be a backstory for SCP-069 that the Foundation tried to sweep under the rug.
I was thinking it was an SCP 096 origin story myself. It seemed almost like she was gonna be the Shy Guy for quite some time there lol
@@thedayidied Honestly I did too
Had the exact same thought. Probably an intentional red hearing.
Same here, lol
And how she wanted to sit in the corner and cry
I feel like the main lesson that the foundation should have learned from this disaster is not "cross-testing bad" but rather "if you want to create an artificial god, maybe don't treat them shit" lol
What's really interesting and it's probably intended is that they basically were making 096 , tall, lanky, hid in the corner, didn't want to be interacted with and saw itself as a monster, and was highly resistant to damage
I don't know if that was on purpose honestly but it feels like it is
@@elizathegamer413 you can just ask the guy who wrote it @rounderhouse , he has top comment under this post.
And the only person it took with it was the person who saw it's face, screaming the entire time
24:30 "Three armed members of the containment unit..."
My stupid ass heard "Three-armed members" and I was like WOAH WAIT WHY THEY GOT THREE ARMS?!
I was going to write "Dude, there is a reason we have an ethics committee" but I guess they didn't in this canon. You win this one, SCP
it wasn't that they just don't have it, they don't have it yet
*Sharp:* "Let's turn a person into a weaponizable anomaly!"
*Also Sharp:* _Uses a fucking D-Class as a basis_
Seriously, why didn't they just use a volunteer from an MTF?
He saw the D-class as a human lab-rat and didn’t reduce harm.
D-class aren't in the union unfortunately
Yeah, not much better to turn the trained killing machine soldier into an anomalous living weapon than the typical violent/sexual offender D-Class.
This is the first SCP in the redtape cannon which contains SCP-001 "gold" and "jade", so i think he's covering this amazing cannon now.
Aren't the Gold and Jade SCP-001 Amoni-Ram and Mamjul & Korar? This SCP is connected to both?
@@rennpang4865 they are
watch the video, he mentions red tape at the end
*canon
It's awful writing.
That ending got me thinking. And I can’t help but wonder, what was that third entity in the cell. I have a hunch but it’s both wholesome and revolting at the same time.
i assumed the d class was talking to the ones watching over the cell. i don't think she liked him enough to do that with him
@@rosherbear my hunch is not that, but I’d rather not say for the concept is ‘interesting’ to use the most broad version of that word.
What's your hunch??
@@dee4204 that the researcher and the D class have basically had a child down their.
I don’t think there was a third entity, was there? I think she was talking to the foundation who was certainly recording and listening.
I remember when I first started reading SCPs, back in the early days, you really felt like you'd found something mysterious you weren't supposed to be seeing.
One of the ways I found which SCPs to read was because of all the cross-testing! Each article had connections to like 3-4 other articles (at least) and you'd have to look them up and read them too to get the whole story. It was a real rabbit hole! Eventually you started memorizing the numbers of the major ones that everyone referenced.
Fun times. I hadn't really noticed they didn't do that anymore! This one was a real nostalgia trip for me
its really awesome that the author tied in the interaction between SCPs, and why its not really done anymore
Exploring has gone on a ROUNDERHOUSE binge, I'm here for it. Credit to him and RH 💙

@@ROUNDERHOUSE (Him? Her?? It??? The weird light buzzing morse code from the closet????)
Your work wasn't that rough at the start, but it's fascinating to see your talent match your scope and intent over 3-ish years!
@@ROUNDERHOUSE it's a joy to read your works it reminds me of a younger El Ron Hubbard
I'm always excited whenever the Ethics Committee gets brought up, so the last "act" of this got me grinning
The demotion to D class was sooooo beautiful. Extremely rare instance of justice
I can’t imagine what the kidnapped researcher is going through down there.
How is he even being kept alive? Why is 5549 keeping him down there?
The more you think about it, the worse it gets.
I feel like it's implied that the test subject and researcher have had a child together - hence the gurgling sound!
@@QwentyJ that's so fucked up
I mean it can regenerate so it could literally just be eating itself and feeding itself to him
The kidnapped researcher is, most likely, the guy who was trying to help her. Note that his fate post-incident is not discussed in the entry (unless I somehow missed it).
@@QwentyJ Also why she says "not you" to Boucher when he replies to her!
for a moment I thought she would eventually become SCP-096
Same
Me too
That would have been an awesome twist
Yup, totally thought this was its origin story. I was honestly surprised when that twist never came
Same as well
"I don't get it, I mean why do we even have an Ethics Committee anyway?"
"You never heard about 5549 huh..?"
"Huh, what's that?"
"A glaring objective lesson on what happens when The Foundation loses its way. 5549 is why the Ethics Committee exists, and you should be a damn grateful rookie."
Until the audio recording, I almost got the impression they offered the d-class a place on the ethics committee to offer a unique perspective.
That would be one hell of a rewrite, and it would make perfect sense.
The SCP foundation is a place where a lot of things are logical but a lot of things are illogical.
To be honest this should have been the way it was done instead of some lingering ominin.
It would have been something greater.
But then again, that's what damned everybody that got hurt or killed in this story to hell in the first place wasn't it.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
On behalf of all SCP fans, thank you. Your content always comes towards the end of my 12 hour shift and allows me to stay awake and alert on the way back home.
God i love rounderhouse scps. Definitely love Mangg covering them! Happy Monday yall!
Not gonna lie when I heard that she was becoming long, lanky, pale, super strong skin and bones, and had special psychic powers, I thought she was gonna be 096. I'm glad it's a completely singular entity
Yeah Not everything needs a backstory, It would ruin the Mystery to Who or what 096 is, which is apart of what makes it so scary.
I will be honest I never hated Mondays, little bit annoyed here and there maybe, but never hated them. Since I started watching Mangg's videos I love them. It can't be bad day when you start it with nice breakfast, coffee, cigarette and some SCP lore, bonus vibe when it is DJCACTUSverse or ROUNDERHOUSEverse, as I once said Adam el Asem and BLACKSTAR are such two chad characters. Thank you SCP community, for such horror, heavy and hard lore it is really wholesome.
The SCP Foundation literally went full Phyrexian on that poor girl in every way they could think of...
Do you want to get Elesh Norn? Because this is how you get Elesh Norn.
@@ValerieEnriquez Wait... Constantly growing taller and thinner, covered in metal-like toughened skin, had been infected by an anomaly that turns living things into machines, sealed away until she inevitably breaks out... They already got Elesh Norn!
I hope Sharp enjoys his orange jumpsuit and he's put on testing a Dado product or something Sarkic, those tend to be painful. For 11, just delete him with The Children or give him to 682 as a meal.
Sometimes the SCP Foundation purely disgusts me. It's a great story for the origin for the Ethics Committee though
I've taken note of all the experimentations and what it could likely result to, seeing as she no longer looks human I'm inclined to believe she taken similar traits from different opposing entities SCP-217 has connections to mekhane/church of broken God, SCP-610 from yaldabaoth/Sarkites, SCP-682's flesh, 682 who's basically the son of scarlet king, and a slew or other very unique SCPs, some I never thought possible, like the glove to swap materials and the robot med device that replaces and upgrades organs and body parts, a coffin that genetically clones someone or even a prion zombie virus, as well as certain augmentations it's clear her form is a vague mixture of things, and I can hardly imagine what she looks like now being vaguely human at the very least. Maybe she has multiple eyes like 682, has red Grey and silvery skin tone and texture from the multiple upgrades, demonically skinny and gaunt like. I can only guess, but I'd say her height is probably as big as say Thanos or the Hulk or just incredible long, she probably has leftover features from the multiple encounters with biohazards, likely making unique changes to her DNA. And her organs, what was done to it made me feel like it's a throwback to Apotheosis scp testing experimentation where something vaguely similar was done on human and animal testing. This scp is has opened my eyes to what can be done with just cross-testing alone. Makes me wonder can they replicate this exact SCP-5549 testing process on another completely willing and fully briefed D-class? Would they end up the same as her? Would more criss testing on other test lead to better understanding and origins of scps, as it's already noted some have connections or at least a history with each other. Was expecting them to also use of song of Genesis here to bring her closer to nature or something 😅. What ever she is she's not just a weapon she'll likely endure thru time, and anomalous dangers that humans can't handle, as she has a lot of connections to other powerful and dangerous scps, as the fact she has onto kinetic abilities means she's become a reality bender, maybe not the standard kind that would lead to such a form. I believe we haven't seen the last of D-293. 👀This is a most peculiar and interesting scp of ROUNDERHOUSE.
The ending gave of a "and then everybody clapped" vibe
I love the consequences for O5-11 and his little pet.
As for combining anomalies, has anyone tried asking the vend-anything vending machine for some of the cure-anything medicine?
they did manage to grow the pills through another scp but they were less effective but ended up being widely used. I’d imagine a similar thing would happen. also is it not implied the vending machine takes from existing matter in that universe? so if the object is anomalous and not inherent replicable it might just take the pills that already exist and dispense them.
This (not exactly this) is how they created SCP-427 (put a pill into scp 914 on the fine setting), made an amulet that can heal but has a slight downside. Though with controlled use still a cure all basically.
One of those things, cant really recreate things without downsides or not as good. As they did use SCP-038 to "grow" more pills but they aren't as good as the original. But hey at least they still can cure all or stop infections just require lots of use of the cloned pills due to the changes but allowed stop use of scp 500 (for most part) as they are limited in numbers). So I'm sure the vending machine would turn out sorta like scp 914 where would create things with additional anomalous properties or just say "OUT OF RANGE" and be unable to create more.
Been waiting for this. Your narrations have become a very well appreciated and pleasurable pass time. Thanks for such content! 🙏🙏🙏
*OH BOY! IT’S 3AM!!*
Midnight here in my neck of the woods
2 am here lol
2PM for me.
4:42 AM, SHIT!
My alarm is going to go off in an hour.
0245 here
Been watching your vids for years, I absolutely love the work you do. Thank you for the content king👑
I have been listening to since 5 years now even your non scp vids and I always appreciate when u use cryo chamber music in your vids thank you soo much for making my Monday interesting (kind of a ritual now 😅)
"sometimes the ends *and* the means really suck" is a banger of an outro line
Me: Tell me a Bed Time Story
TES: SCP-...
the researchers: "i wanna make a super weapon! but the ethics committee is a bunch of cowards!"
Ethics: "and now you're a d-class, aint so good now is it nerd."
Man i love the 5000 series, so nostalgic and it hasnt even been that long
It always makes me feel so intensely when people get tested on like that. It's so messed up when you think about it. D: I didn't know that there was an article this early in the series. It was pretty cool.
You always upload when Im about to sleep, thank you Mang!
The Foundation moving away from cross-experimentation and weaponizing of anomalies, makes me think that could be a good angle to explore with the Chaos Insurgency.
You know, the more I think about it. O5-11 reminds me a lot of Cato the Elder. I'm glad I stumbled across this one, because now I get to see London Bridge, because of me listening to, The Dying of the Wolf.
I can’t help but feel that the Foundation took away the wrong lesson about cross-testing SCPs. There were a number of shockingly dumb and immoral things done in this experiment, and maybe having an entire department dedicated to cross-testing SCPs is a bad idea. Still, isn’t there a middle ground between no cross-testing SCPs and cross-testing the absolute deadliest ones available?
It’s bit of meta-commentary when site decided cross-testing content was getting out of hand
I'm never awake at the end of these. This was really good.
The "SCP Rookie Handbook" is a great book and introduction to the SCP Foundation
I love ROUNDERHOUSE and the Redtape canon.
O5-11 and Sharp are true monsters and it's refreshing to see, wanting to utilize anomalies for benefit, disregarding all ethical concerns.
Love when these drop right as I'm settling into bed!
I am amazed by how much you have been improving with your vids. The backing track is just... chef's kiss!
Couldn't sleep. Exploring series posted a video at 2 in the morning. Now I definitely cannot sleep.
We should really make a law that says anyone who proposes that something needs to be tested on humans becomes the test subject.
That would be really stupid lol. It would introduce bias where there should be as little as possible, plus most research that uses human participants (which are volunteers) is medical research. Hopefully you can see how that creates another problem. That wouldn’t work in our universe, or any of the SCP universes
Honestly this wasn't even half as inhumane as half the experiments/containment measures the foundation does and wasn't even that costly or disterous for a monster breaching containment. This is like every other tueday tier for the foundation.
The last time I was this early, the world was almost launched like a pinball in a pinball machine. (SCP-1825)
This story is great because it carries within the potential to be a Legend. The portents say these two companions will leave behind the foundation to give rise to the future. They will bring into being the first truly civilized modern society open to all.
Thank you for all your podcasts, they are great to listen to while doing chores, walk, driving long distances!
Gotta love an article that highlights just how evil the foundation can be to their d class
"We're cold, not cruel", my ass, SCP FOUNDATION.
To be fair, this was an O5 effectively acting on his own warped perspective on the SCPs mission and the incident is what actually led to the creation of the ethics committee so its not neccerily representative of the organisation as a whole.
The reveal that Sharpe was sassing back to the _Administrator_ at the end was delicious. He was advised to shut up, and mouthed off to the worst person possible.
My day just got infinitely better
So SCP-5549 started off as a similar attempt the Foundation has tried with Good Boy
Good Boy?
@@michaelandreipalon359 One of the 001 Proposals that somehow neutralized all SCPs including 682 (although never mention how that came to be).
It was called good boy because it's goal was also to be considered a good boy and everyone else to be such (figuratively for girls) after one of Good Boys suggestions for SCP-1459 that ended up very unpleasant.
@@ashleighstratmann7783 ...So, a dog?
The exploring series actually covered Good Boy in a video.
Am I the only one who thought this was an origin for the Shy Guy around the middle of the story?
This one was a banger! Thanks for translating it so perfectly!
So that's how and why the ethics committee was created. Great job reading this and picking it out.
Yeah, let's keep reality anchors going in the facility where we're doing out tests and housing our test subject that way the test subject can learn to deal with them while its powers are developing and we won't know it's developed powers until it's strong enough to overpower our reality anchors.😂
Omg this is SO COOL! I'm so happy to see this piece done. Couldn't have been done by a better series. TES is on a roll! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
The Foundation fucking around: what could possibly go wrong lmao
The Foundation finding out: bro wtf this sucks ass
There is a place for the large grandiose 001 stories, but smaller more important ones like this are really nice
I honestly thought they were turning her into shyguy
You should make a compilation of your closing regards on SCP articles
Sometimes they are really quite great
Especially when the article was very complicated or just weird
Injecting SCP-682 pieces into somebody? That sounds like the worst idea ever.
The first sin was operating a forklift without proper certification
One horrifying detail is that when the experiment logs say that the D-class "repeatedly voiced extreme discomfort and distress" they mean that she was screaming in agony.
Love your work my dude! Just got super excited when I realized it was monday, I ran upstairs chanting "it's Monday, Monday, Monday, Monday" time to watch my fav RUclips channel.
YIPPEE JUST IN TIME TO LISTEN TO AND RELAX GOING TO BED
I think that third person the D-Class was talking to was SCP-682. Because they put a piece of it into her. Considering the abilities we've seen it have, connecting with all of the piece of itself, even if inside a person, wouldn't be out of the question. It makes sense as well. 682 HATES humans.... But the D-Class isn't fully human anymore, now is she? Not to mention they both despise the foundation for their own reasons
She was making a threat to the foundation. Dr. Boucher wouldn't have been spared otherwise.
I like how this implied that the D-Class was becoming scp 096, but it went with the twist that this is an entirely separate entity. However, looking at the end there, it just may as well be a 096 origin story. 🙄😳🙄
"Boucher", meaning "Butcher" in French. Because of course.
Looks like TES is on a bit of a ROUNDERHOUSE kick. Absolutely no complaints here, probably some of the best storytelling on the site.
Huh. A little like a modernized version of the Olympia Project that fits better with more recent SCP lore. Cool.
Yo! Part 43 of the 83 part serieeeeeees! Let's gooooooo!
I really dislike this one. The Foundation is acting extremely out of character with its constant concern over the D-class, harping on about what was done to her, and constantly advocating on her behalf, even referring to her as an employee.
I have never known the Foundation to give a rat’s ass about losing D-class. They’ve always treated them like fodder and wouldn’t ever be bothered about losing one.
If anything, I’d expect them to be more bothered that Sharp created a new anomaly that hates them, specifically, that they also have to contain and got several MTFs needlessly killed in the process of containing it and all for nothing.
The last thing I expect them to worry about mention is the fate of the D-class. By all mean, they’re allowed to pity her and lament her fate, but it feels like there was too much emphasis on it. Doesn’t help they were surprisingly preach and self-righteous about it.
That is a fast track to getting the audience to want to see them punished for their good deed.
9 hours of surgery without anesthesia is rough!
Somebody actually thought sticking the flesh of the unkillable lizard in a human body was a good idea.
I know I’ve watched this before but honestly, I’m calling it at 12:22. This is basically torture p/rn. Not to mention specifically using a female prison inmate (when in real life there is an extremely serious history of female inmates being abused, se/ually or otherwise), rather than an existing D-class or MTF member.
20 seconds! im early JAJAJA thank u so much for making my mondays awsome!
Thin, lanky appearance? Indestructible anatomy? Hates the way she looks?
Wouldn't it be a crazy twist if she turned out to be scp 096?
Soooo thats it? The chick and the therapist are just forgotten in the hole while the bad guys of the story get a conclusion to thier story? Pfffff
Its disturbing the slippery slope that we as humans both make and fall on when it comes to matters where power is abundant and morality is near non existent. We've alwaya tried to live with the idea that the ends justify the means but the problem is we can always justify the ends if we claim its in the name of something that tugs at the heart strings, for the children, for peace, for the advancement of humanity but until we get there we can't justify it and its all just wrong and often dangerous, sometimes even evil and we decide that to stop now would mean we would have to admit everything that was done so far wrong. Rather than do that we just keep going trying to dig ourselves out while digging deeper
Man, they really went all in early on metal upgrades early on.
Best time of the night
When the D-Class became taller, thinner, harder to kill, and chased the only person who saw it's face, screaming the entire time, I thought they had become 096
Why the hell would anyone in their right mind put 682's flesh into anyone!? If she's talking to voices in her head she could be talking to him. I'd be terrified to work there.
Thanks!
I love how this SCP turns out to be an origin story for the Ethics Committee, and why they are some of the most important people in the Foundation
Wasnt listening carefully but sounds like SCP discovered how to create Warframe
I love the idea of someone complaining about the security of the foundation when they contain things like maybe a pen that can turn ppl into macaroni. A piss test seems like a small fee to not end up as macaroni lol.
Very interesting to me that the D Class number for this anomaly was 293. Isn't that the Witch Child?
I feel like the main genre of SCPs is just the foundation screwing up.
Let me summarize this one: Basically the foundation made a reality bender who thought they were gonna get helped?
“If I had a quarter for every time the SCP researchers messed with a anomaly instead of just securing and containing it; I would be able to pay my rent”.
Glad to see you back
Dude I actually winced for a second when it said she was exposed to the flesh that hates. What a fucked up thing to do.
I love scp stories related to the O-5 council and the drama behind that.
Cool. Goodnight guys
