- SCP 049 is a Euclid Class anomaly also known as The Plague Doctor.
SCP 096 is a Euclid Class anomaly also known as The Shy Guy.
SCP-049 is a humanoid entity, roughly 1.9 meters in height, which bears the appearance of a medieval plague doctor.
SCP049 will become hostile with individuals it sees as being affected by the Pestilence, often having to be restrained should it encounter such. If left unchecked, SCP-049 will generally attempt to kill any such individual.
SCP-096 is a humanoid creature measuring approximately 2.38 meters in height.
when someone views SCP-096's face, whether it be directly, via video recording, or even a photograph, it will enter a stage of considerable emotional distress. SCP096 will cover its face with its hands and begin screaming, crying, and babbling incoherently. Approximately one (1) to two (2) minutes after the first viewing, SCP-096 will begin running to the person who viewed its face (who will from this point on be referred to as SCP-096-1).

049 seems like the person who seems heartless to most but most likely wants to help in the only way he can.
Yeah, he isn't like 682, wanting to kill everyone, he's just trying to cure the pestilence. Even though he's using rather harsh methods, so is the SCP Foundation, so we can't talk bad about him.
Agreed
096 is a bit like that. 343 said “He feels so bad for what he’s done he spends his whole life sobbing. Sobbing because he doesn’t WANT to hurt anyone. It’s why he tries to keep his hands covering its face. But sometimes it forgets…”
The Desire Camera took a picture of it and there was just a picture of the background. He wishes he was invisible.
He’s in pain because he can’t help himself, and he knows what he does is wrong. It might even be that he’s so lonely when he sees someone he wants to embrace them but he’s too strong and kills them.
Doesn't 049 also feel extreme guilt whenever he harms someone?
@@yharim180 He feels that it is necessary in pursuit of the cure

SCP-049: Yes.
and that's why no one cares what he thinks

He lobotomized scp-096, he removed the portion of his brain that dealt with emotion. When it grew back that's when it returned to normal.

I like that the Plague Doctor has a creepy version of the Mary Poppins bag. I wonder if the Doctor also has their own version of the "practically perfect in everyway" measuring tape as well.
Wonderfully cured… completely. It’s a anomalous ruler with measurements written in an unidentifiable font. It seems to warp length to read measurements completely and perfectly.

@@Penguinman2.0 kukjhgk
Scp 049: “I’m Mary Poppins y’all!
He does; the green solution that cures his patients. It works on everyone.
The rage state is apparently induced because of brain activity. However, 096 doesn't need to witness you having seen him as shown by photographs and videos being enough to trigger his rage state. It's possible that its brain had already begun to grow back when MTF interrupted 049 which caused him to stand up, but his "anger center" hadn't grown back yet.
Better explanation than i thought of
Possibly
I agree, so we can assume that the Old Man is much more powerful than the Shy Guy and The Plague Doctor, at least according to this video.
Thats a cool thought, could be. More base body function sits in the hindbrain (spinal chord, pons, medulla oblongata etc) whereas emotion is higher up in the mid brain (hippocampus, amygdala, hypothalamus etc)
It could also have been that he was now conscience because well he does have a pretty large body, it was a single IV bag it, and the biology is not standard human biology so it might not have had the same Effectiveness even if it were to be the same size that is considered average for a human. And if it were to wake up at night still have the ability to you know sit up. But perhaps if you were to take some material and then put it into the nasal cavity of the Beast and then place it where is he previously removed tissue was, perhaps this could be enough to block the cells from regrowing and therefore not be able to regrow this part of the brain. If not part of the brain we could no longer be able to regrow due to lack of space then he would be cured so long as it stayed in his nose, and with some careful application of something like cement or concrete. Maybe this could be applied in the correct shape, continue to be put under anesthesia, and then because it's still wet in there if it is concrete or cement then it would be stronger due to the moisture. Concrete / cement I don't know which but if you keep it wet wild is drying and you do it proper then this additional moisture somehow makes it stronger then if you would just putting into a mold and then be done with it. But even so if you were to use something to soak up the moisture in the nasal cavity and brain area and you were to do this enough, it would have enough time to dry. You could probably do this with Clay as well. Once these materials Harden then they would be in a very rigid form and something tells me the brain doesn't have the necessary to shoot two will force this chunk through the nasal cavity. So perhaps if you give the doctor this, or maybe Dental paste would be better or whatever it's called. I'm talking about the stuff that will harden when exposed to a certain wavelength of light and is used by the mouth doctors. So you probably could see where this patient for a indefinite amount of time if the foundations were to let him do his procedures. Also the pestilence is an actual thing, it is in correlation with something that could be considered an armless but the pestilence itself technically is not, neither is how you get it, the pestilence can affect one's mind, it can butterfly effect into Very Bad Things. The pestilence is a thing that actually exist oh, but the modern conventional doctors simply can't find if they continue looking at for it the way that they did if they even bother to continue looking. I understand the plague doctors pestilence, and why couldn't they just ask him for the code to his journal, clearly she understands the language, no one's been able to crack it, and from what I've read from the entire file they did not even try asking. And this imperfect cure effective if you were to understand the way in which we do. Go ahead, join the thousands, let us go and free the good doctor.
Correct me if I'm wrong... but did SCP-049 just come up with the perfect new containment method for SCP-096? Stick a tube up it's nose and constantly suck out any regenerating brain matter, causing it to be in a permanent status of passiveness. Maybe they should've thought of that before just tossing SCP-096 back in normal containment lol
Easier said than done, when anybody dies immediately when getting near his face,
@@malekf5251 Could enlist the help of the plague doctor to knock him out for a bit, maybe?
They can't
Cus 096 also fight back if it's life's in danger.
you know the brain isn't just exposed through nasal cavity? you still need to break through bone
The doctor would be needed to supply an initial sedative, which was originally done without approval, and it would be difficult to get approval for the doctor to do it again after this incident. There would be risks in their interaction since the doctor may want to perform his own experiments after gaining the necessary knowledge that the shy guy's brain regenerated after the last attempt. Also giving the shy guy a permanent full-brain lobotomy seems a bit unethical given the SCP foundation's goals. However, the anomalous sedative administered by the doctor could be deemed useful in securing the shy guy following a containment breach, so there is merit in suggesting that SCP-049 can provide assistance in the containment of SCP-096
049 might be the most oddly wholesome SCP. A mannerly and respectful doctor who's just trying to help, obviously not exactly the most safe curing methods.
Honestly that is a very interesting conclusion. I always assumed that the need to kill was a function of 096s body or soul. But if it is a matter of it's brain it could be fixable.
It does present two interesting methods of neutralization. One would be the introduction of some mind-affecting SCP to rewire 096's brain. The other would be using some kind of acid to continuously destroy 096's brain matter. I think the first method has been tried before, but don't quote me on that. The second, however, I don't think has ever been officially tried.
@@riamcade6170 Well, considering that they have managed to dissolve 096's entire body and skeleton before with the help of 173 I think that they could easily find an SCP that can penetrate his skull and they'd be able to constantly inject an acid that just dissolves soft tissue into it's skull so that it's brain no longer exists unless something goes horribly wrong, such as acid running out, or 096 eventually adapts and gains an immunity to the acid
@@The-Gamer-Mammot I mean 096 is actually dead but people keep using him for vids and games
@@EXP256 I'm not entirely immersed in thr SCP lore, is he actually? Who finally polished him off? You talking about that researcher that had 173 break it's bones and dissolved him in acid?
@@EXP256 Depends on what universe you're following, keep in mind, very many 096's across the multiverse are still alive
The plague doctor is such a kind lad, all he wants to do is just cure people. He always has his manners on point, very kind lad, 10/10
Would lad again
@BeanBag104 Unless he takes your life
Again, the path to hell is paved with good intentions
@@x3woots Hahahaha 😂 well yeah. Sacrifices must be done to cure more patients.
049-J wants to cure people, he mayn’t be as posh as 049 himself, but he still tries his best
I believe the pestilence is signified by how angry someone can get combined with how far their intent to kill can go. I realised this when he said that as a doctor he vowed to do no harm, and 049 apparently does not see the pestilence in other doctors (which have presumably also made this vow). This was further solidified as a point when he said that 096 has a very severe case of the pestilence.
Interesting theory
Maybe he thinks class D personnel are all killers, or inherently violent perhaps. Maybe from first hand experience.. Could also be how D class act near him, vs doctors and scientists, which are calm, and aren't afraid.
Yep. This video got me thinking that as well... that maybe pestilence is intent to kill.
That theory matched what 49 said when shown SCP-682: 'Never have I seen a more malignant case of the Pestilence!'
Yeah, but sometimes he orders his ‘cured’ patients to attack
9:23
I love that little detail of him pushing some of the medicine out of the syringe.
In real life, doctors actually do that to force the air out.
Edit: The term is called air embolism
What problems would that cause if they don't ?
@@skaynne54 Air could possibly get into the bloodstream and that would be bad, causing potentially fatal conditions :p
wow thats rlly cool
@@skaynne54 Your veins would burst open because of the blood pressure, it depends on how much air is injected though.
A really gory movie covered this by injecting a full syringe of air into someone's neck and it caused some kind of seizure almost instantly.
"Cold, not cruel." I'm glad that they let SCP-049 believe that he 'cured' the creature. Sometimes we shouldn't neglect the mental wellbeing of some of the humanoid anomalies since, the Foundation is going to be holding them in custody for a very long time.
I have one question for the researchers employed in Site(-REDACTED-). IF SCP-049 had seen Scp-096's face, why hadn't 096 attacked 049? It would be advantageous if SCP-049 can be convinced to study the creature and to find a permanent solution to terminate SCP-096.
well, if it's 096's brain that causes all the attacking, there's surely some sort of SCP that eats away at the brain of things, just use that on 096 and hope it eats faster than it can regenerate
Maybe after removing the brain fill the empty space with something to prevent it from growing back?
I feel like to a doctor, a sobbing mess on the floor is something that needs help
Scp-049 touched scp-096 before 096 could attack rendering it unconscious
There was a story on the SCP website about 049 comforting 096 while he was crying, and not being attacked. They became sort of friends, so maybe 049 isn't considered human enough to attack, or he just showed compassion and that was enough that 096 didn't want to hurt him?
The Pestilence might be extensive cases of anger, like the parasite that causes and is the source of pain, after one of the instances of SCP-049-1 looked at the face of SCP-096 the narrator said "Never had he seen such an extensive case of the pestilence"
Ooh
maybe the pestilence is our anger
I was thinking the exact same thing
or maybr it be belief, if no one believes jt exits they have it but if they do the don't, i mean i heard about a gril who used to work for him and didn't have it so maybe?
I wonder if that channel has any viewers above 13
My theory about 049 is that he is definitely not from the the same dimension that the foundation is based in, because of this he does not understand how his actions are perceived by humans. He doesn’t understand the morals and ethics that that the human world has and is such unaware of why the foundation has him locked up. He doesn’t understand what makes a human alive he is missing the crucial part of being sapient
There are some tales called The Hanged Kings Comedy implying he has some connection to Alagadda
Wait a minute. 🤔 If the plague doctor was able to remove the shy guys brain through its nose, then what’s stopping the SCP researchers from removing it again, then filling in the empty cavity with liquid metal? Brain can’t regrow if there’s no room in the skull for it to grow in.
Basically, they don't do it because of plot armor
@@HalduBouyaNono2 yea
@@HalduBouyaNono2 they would make up some sh like the brain grows anyway cuz yes
The shy guy is made from a supernatural being according to his origin story so there is probably not much in the way of a scientific solution.
i also tought about that but probablly it would do some weird thing to regrow its brain
Has it ever occurred to the Foundation that containing all these humanoid anomalies at the same site _maybe_ isn't the greatest idea?
They don't, there's many sites? Prolly one for each author of stories...
The type of site have different section that depends on the type of scp and class, if the security work better on humanoid then you bet you fill it with humanoids

funniest comment ever
All I’m doing is curing them I’m not killing them 🗿
So the easiest way to contain a 096 breach would be to show 049 a picture of shyguys' face and let the doctor knock him out when he eventually arrives.
SCP-049 : Alas, trapped in this crude cell. I could walk the world outside, and help the folks to protect themselves of the Pestilence. But a cruel fate keeps me prisoner here, for most people doesn't understand neither the Pestilence nor the way to cure it.

Love how his "cured" patient, the SCP guard, became an instant nurse during surgery. 😂
Okay, we really need to introduce the Plague Doctor to Ms. J. It's pretty clear by now that he is constantly seeking to improve on his practice, and he desperately needs a refresher course on medicine. SCP is being obscenely negligent in not doing so.
He could take a fun course on Ethics as well!
Or something on that Pestillence is not real

@@user-eg7vk5wq6q OH shit, it isn't there
I can't even get mad at 049 for how he handles the medical field. He was based off a doctor where medicine was barely going anywhere after all. Some of his techniques were actually used
You know, it's weird. When I first learned about SCP-049 I found him to be a twisted depraved version of a medical professional but knowing what I know now, some small part of me actually sympathizes with him. He's educated, he knows multiple ways to "cure" his patients, and he legitimately believes in what he is doing.
I’m pretty sure the ‘pestilence’ he speaks of is human pain itself. All the negative emotions like hate, anger, sorrow, greed, all that is what’s considered the pestilence for him. Since no human is entirely good, he sees all humans as infected.
Thats how i would think of it but would that mean the best medication to cure said pestilence would be mdma/methylenedioxymethamphetamine?
@@KysEcstacy he’s from the 1500s nobody knows what that is

@@johncronk8867 ok
It's death
i just realized for as long as the doctor has been alive , has he ever been thought the procedures rules and regulations of how to thoroughly document a disease and all its strains ? cause all i keep hearing is about his medical and alchemy supplies , what about a high precision microscope ? or any equipment of modern age to help show/ identify precisely what the pestilence is?
Good point though in some stories they do say he has documentation, notes and samples but no doctor or scientist who has seen it can understand do to language barries and when they ask SCP 049 is really vague
Like all doctors, his handwriting is very difficult to read....
@ElysonGear Difficult is an understatement. his documents in a completely foreign language that nobody has been able to decrypt! I bet that part was a "doctor's have bad handwriting" joke.
It was written early in the scp fundation some its some edgy dumb bad writing that sadly became populat
he doesnt treat, real dissease, the whole point is he is hunting the "pestilence" at ANY cost.
049 really earned my respect as he often agrees to cooperate with the foundation to help contain high level SCPs in return for test subjects and only uses his touch of death only if in extreme danger like if 096 was gonna attack him
I like to think that he momentarily thought he finally found the cure to pestilence by removing the brain after touching them but after doing it to other people and animals he realized it wasn't the cure and wondered why it worked on SCP 096
I think they should treat 049 more like a med student. Like, give him all of the training of a modern day brain surgeon, or even eventually all our knowledge of the human body. That way, he can focus on curing the pestilence using all of his newfound K N O W L E D G E.
either that or, like a regular med student, he falls into deep depression at the stress of it all.
if he's allowed to go at his own pace he might not get depressed
The thing is I don't think the pestilence actually exists. I think the "pestilence" is life. Or at least like, autonomous life or free will. Given the subjects he "cures" turns into drones.
@@Theviewerdude that wouldn't explain the people that he finds _don't_ have the pestilence, because it's not everyone.
@@Theviewerdude good theory but it doesn't make sense. The plauge doctor sees the signs of the pestilence in some people but not others. Sometimes even over the course of only a day the doctor will believe that someone he previously stated wasnt inflicted with the pestilence, suddenly became infected.
The problem is the plauge doctor has proven that while he is willing to learn he trusts his own judgement over anyone else's. In fact in this video it's mentioned he has studied with some of the best medical minds of their time. It does t seem to have affected the way he practices medicine. So while I'm sure he'd appreciate the sharing of knowledge he'd probably still rely on his own methods for curing the pestilence, especially when he believes the foundation to be woefully ignorant when it comes to the pestilence. He'd see them as well meaning but ultimately ignorant.
If SCP-096 becomes somewhat calm with a removed brain, I wonder if you could just remove it and just fill the brain cavity with cement to prevent it from regrowing there for a safer containment.
Chances are the brain stem would just punch through the cement as it regenerates
@@StriiderEclipse Then they would have to take out the brain every so often
Nah, they're going to need to remove the rage center with something made of carbonadium, which permanently nullifies cellular healing factors.
dumb idea but what if we fill the brain with acid and then close the nose and mouth??
@@ShwappaJ You might be right. The foundation should get 049 to remove the brain, afterwards since the rage center and the regeneration is gone, the foundation can finally terminate 096.

@@poltoq8856 HE NEEDS TO CURE THE PESTILINCE
1:06 nice reference of the old scp 049 design
My favorite interpretation of the Plague Doctor would have to be that he’s not at all purposefully hostile nor that the Pestilence even exists; he’s some poor schmuck who’s been cursed with anomalous abilities that also altered his mind into believing that the harm he causes actually is beneficial. His search for the “cure” is an elaborate way of denying the harm he causes by masking it as a necessary evil in the path to medical salvation.
Well my explenation is that pestilance is hate, all the encounters and stories are pointing to it if you want i can elaborate
yeah what you describe is neurodivergents trying to tell normal people there is a better solution to a Problem, like how to adress people already present when you enter a room, he is exactly like that totally incapable to compute these information but other information we dont know even exists
Nah, i prefer that he wishes to stop death itself. But he can't figure out how to bring the personality back.
Or it's "it"
So..TF2 pyro
If the 049 has the capability to learn and study ancient practises and use them in complex surgeries, what’s stopping the foundation from letting him learn more regarding viruses, bacteria and health in general
Since they locked him up for so long, we can only assume 049’s knowledge stops at around the 20th century at the max so he would be confused as to why people won’t let him cure them. He dosent know as much about medicine as the doctors of the foundation do
I really want to see a 049 operating show
I mean, that is an interesting idea that he just doesnt know any better and is trying to do things the way he knows how. It might be interesting to see what would happen if people did that and what his reaction to the new information would be. I dont see why they cant allow him internet access. Its not directly harming people and you can really just ban him from speaking to people online. I'd imagine he'd easily take that offer of "You can use the internet as long as you dont interact with people online"

049 needs to learn something crucial which humans tend to appreciate: Consent. If he were to, at the least, adhere to that, people might even allow him to cure them, as long as he respects their boundaries and consent. If he knew how to respect consent, especially when his 'patients' would say no to being cured, he would still be able to have subjects to research, and scholars to converse with.
If the plague doctor would have filled the cavity where the brain was with something to keep the brain from growing back then the shy guy would have stayed a vegetable
some kind of a super acid?
Or a rock
expanding construction foam.
Doc should have been told about the regeneration, and subsequently been given 096 as a roommate.
Pros:
+ Doc would have a patient to continuously cure and learn from so his knowledge could be expanded in practice
+ Doc would be on the foundation's good side as long as he was occupied with 096, which likely means better medical budgets
Cons:
- Doc could be rubbed the wrong way by a really stupid scientist or guard, which would likely let 096 have a small bit of "exercise" between procedures.
nah the doc would never let his patient suffer between curings
This is why you are still a level one researcher. There is no way that the foundation could risk 049 successfully altering 096. The danger caused by this and loss of studyable assets would be unacceptable.
@@appleender959 This is why you're still not even in researcher training. The foundation has a long history of using entities to neutralize other entities. This is SCP college 101.

Let an uncontrollable and unguidable SCP alter another uncontrollable and unguidable one is utter foolishness. The junior researcher was also not speaking of neutralizing the 096, but letting 049 experiment with it. 049 does not simply neutralize his targets, in case you need reminded, he reanimates them to serve his purposes. Only through extensive research to ensure the success of the operation or absolute desperation to neutralize a keter or higher class threat would this be permitted. Maybe you need to be reminded of how dangerous 096 can be...I have a picture here somewhere.

I'm kinda interested to know what SCP-049 would do if he found out about the corona virus, would he try to cure it instead? Or would he try to learn more about it?
first learn more and then try to cure and its pretty much gone too
He'd probably want to learn more about it first.
He'd either assume it's the pestilence which would lead to mass casualties, or not care as it is nowhere near as important as the great dying is.

Plague Doctor is very interesting. Highly logical and practical, does have compassion. Obviously has lived a very long time. The Foundation should really make him a member of the staff.... let him further his understanding and grow. He is a reasonable individual afterall.
And also he can defend himself since he can just kill things by touching them (though whether it works on other anomalies or not depends on the anomaly)
@@sexypotato8266 has he ever tried using his death touch on scp-682?
@@spadethevelociraptor4869 I believe so. The cross test resulted in 682 swatting 049 away before the death touch could be attempted, and 049 refusing to try it again.
@@arikutin1032 ah, I see.
Did the Plague Doctor write this?
The Plague Doctor makes "How are you feeling?" sound eerily terrifying. I like it.
049 would generally be one of the more pleasant scp's to chat or sit a table's length distance adjacent from and view their work
049 seems like the guy who would do something completely evil and think he’s doing god’s work

I love all these little stories about 049, he's one of my favorite SCPs since it seems like if just one or two things could be changed he could be a real force for good. If he were willing to try to learn anything about medicine beyond the Pestilence, I feel like he could be a very helpful asset. He's clearly got the mind for it, he just doesn't really get modern medicine yet. And of course find a way to keep him from killing people.
I'd laugh if it turns out that modern medicine in his hands, even when practiced perfectly, just lets him turn people into zombies way faster.
I got so hyped when SCP-096 was completely docile, good thing the Foundation didn't tell 049 that it's brain grew back.
And this, this is why SCP-049 is my favorite SCP
If by "cured of the pestilence" you mean " stole his brain" then sure.
Yea
I love how even though the SCP Foundation does unnecessary things to it's "property", they still have morals, as seen with the researchers agreeing to not tell SCP-049 about the fact that SCP-096 was not cured, and could regenerate, due to them not wanting to give 049 new subjects. They wanted him to remain content, so that he wouldn't turn against the researchers. It sounds almost hypocritical, but it's oddly wholesome.
I will always say this. The pestilence is dishonesty and disloyalty. When he realized the doctor was upholding his end by letting 049 "cure" him, the pestilence disappeared.
3:50 First animation glitch I've seen in a while
Huh yea
Good eyes
As someone who is working on his bachelor's in sociology with a minor in psychology, this SCP would be the perfect person to speak to and study the mind of. He's polite, friendly, and open to conversation. As long as I don't enter his room, I could learn so much about his psyche.
"He wished he studied psychology more" wait seriously? His idea of illness is free will, and he never studied how the mind works? That's a big bruh moment for the doctor lol.
Honestly, I feel like if the foundation were to be smart for once and actually teach the plague doctor things about the human mind and have philosophical discussion with him on the concept of free will and the plague, they could turn him into a super surgeon and a great tool for them.
Got those degrees. Regret them.
Someone said that he rejects modern medicine but maybe if he was convinced....

Scp 049 seems like a nice guy who actually wants to help not hurt
I’ve found a new obsession and reason to binge. These are brilliant! And the fact that this one is from the perspective of SCP-049 makes it so unique and captivating. It almost makes him feel more human or normal, showing that he has emotions and feelings. It’s incredible
So wait... Did the good doctor just discover the next best containment method for 096? Simply have a set of one or two doctors constantly removing brain matter every half hour to ensure it simply does not have the brain functions to enter a rage state. If it does through increased healing then only the two doctors will be hunted for seeing his face, but if a D-class we're trained to do such then 096 could be possibly kept in a permanently docile state.
You'll need 049s help. The only reason he was able get the brain in the first place is because his touch rendered 096 unconscious.
Well once 049 had him, he gave him the IV to keep him sedated, plus without a brain he won't be able to move at least for a bit, but I wouldn't take any chances
Maybe some sort of device that constantly destroys its brain?
It's canon that 096 is unaffected by tranquilizer and any attempts to kill it have failed so it's probably impossible to actually make an incision to operate on it. If the foundation could cut up 096 they already would have done so. It's such a huge security risk that termination is a priority if possible. There's no canon way to know how one SCP would react to another and this video takes a lot of creative liberty there. Personally I think that either 049 would be attacked by 096 resulting in either an endless fight or one of their deaths (probably 049), or 096 wouldn't be activated by 049 and they would both be completely uninterested and just ignore each other.
@@i5m1thy After how droll and boring your little speech about "let's not have any of the scp's interact with one another and just make it a third person receptive viewing session only" was, im glad to see it's people like you that don't bother writing stories at all. Hypothesis and introspection is a higher form of intellectual discourse, after all.
Imagine 049 pulling out a railgun from his bag and says in a stern Slavic voice, "Cure was never an option for you."
When you're a scalpel, the whole world looks like a gangrene linfected finger...
It really feels like the foundation should make better use of 049
I understand he can be dangerous, but he still has great skills, and is pretty smart
They could definitely have him help more in the research, rather than just being a test subject
I agree with you. I feel bad for him cuz he just want try to help
I guess they tried that at first but after he touched and killed so many people they gave up on that.

Scp 049 is such a nice but dangerous scp
This proves that 096 is rendered docile when the anger centre of the brain is removed.
It also proves that it could be rendered this way semi permanently if it was strapped to a device programmed to repeatedly take out the anger centre, effectively rendering it neutralised as long as the process is allowed to keep going.
Just fill the cavity with spray foam
@@Falcodrin idk it might force the foam out, better use liquid metal
These plague doctor POV videos are great! He’s quickly becoming a major supporting character of the channel! Along with the nice researcher (black hair bearded labcoat man) and site director (olive skin black hair suit guy)
You mean 049
I've always wondered what/how an encounter between those 2 would look like/go. And now 049 is on the small list of beings who've seen the Shy Guy's face and lived to tell about it.
i love the fact that the guard imediately said "screw it" when he saw 096's face, no struggle just acceptance
049 is my favorite person in the scp foundation, and earth possibly.
1:54
He draws a heart saying:
"It's okay, i am your friend =)"
I had read somewhere that the plague refers to the human free will. That's why his "patients" got reanimated as mindless zombies.
I thought the pestilence referred to life hence why all his patients are undead and the nature of the entire touch of death thing. In the first place he possesses freewill himself so it would be strange to not attempt to cure himself.
@@buddhagoddevil6270 but he doesn't see the pestilence in everyone
I heard that he aknowledges that them being zombies isnt ideal but he can only recover their bodies not their soul or essense since it always seems to refuse his efforts.
Maybe humans just arent supposed to be inmortal so no matter how hard he tries its just not his call to make
@@aidonpor8211 Yeah I just went and watched an older video and realized how far off I was. It honestly never occurred to me that he didn't very everyone as infected, which in retrospect should have obvious.
Maybe it is having a brain?
If that had lasted longer that would have been a dream come true for any SCP Employee
SCP-049: *sees a bit of redness on face* YOU'RE DIEING!!! YOU'RE HEATING UP
I find 049 to be my favorite SCP, he's just so fascinating of a concept and I always love stories told from his perspective
I feel bad for 049. Regardless that his cure is essentially brain death for his patient, he still wants to help.
I do like the idea of doctors coming to visit and discuss with SCP-049. There’s something oddly cozy about having this ghoulish supernatural being speaking with someone completely normally but it considers a professional peer.
Thanks to this addendum, I now realize that what SCP 049 meant about the plague is an emotion. It could be anger, love, scaredness, sadness, happiness, etc as you can see in his comment about the shy guy. As we can see on its cured patients(victims). A common trait about them is their zombielike characteristics that are devoid of these emotions that are the basis for us as a human.
Emotions is what makes us weak and imperfect
Removing our attachments will truly make is perfect just like the legend Buddha
No anger
No lust
No desire
No Love or attachment
Without these we could all be united
As One
No Religion
No Nation
No Heritage
No War
Just a Society devoid of Emotion and only our drive to Survive and overcome everything
We are given a gift of Awareness and Intellect we cannot waste it
If only they let the Doctor finish his work. It's another moment where the Foundation had a solution to a Keter class problem, and they screw it up. 😠
"049 is behaved and formative."
Meanwhile 049: 2:45

Logically, 049 would pass medical school with a full degree.
049 always reminds me of a line from a will wood song:
"And good news to the purists: they've discovered a cure for the symptoms of being alive
It's a painless procedure with a low rate of failure
But very few patients survive"

“A knock on the derr stirred him”
SCP-049 is just a chill dude
With this in mind, couldn't they stick a small explosive device into his head and any time he try'd to escape, they could activate it or have it so when he passes a certian thresh hold it automatically sets off?
that’s a pretty good idea
Yeah, but what happens when the brain regrows and he starts hunting the last guy he never got to kill? It would be an endless loop.
Would that damage the facility?
An interesting thought would be that, with the brain removed, the Foundation could pour a molten metal through the nostrils and fill up the skull like a mould
Well normally 096 would not need a brain to operate at all, he's been completely incinerated down to only his skeleton before but it doesn't stop him. Here I guess you could just say maybe he needed a new brain because 049 disabled his old one? Idk
The pestilence could be mortality. Because when he arrives at the site originally he states the lack of pestilence, most anomalies are imortal. And when he says he hasn't cured it yet. It may be because the people he cured weren't immortal yet6
But he said 096 had an advanced case of the pestilence and 096 is very immortal
We only know one thing about the Pestilence, if it's not just a delusion of the Doctor: Not everyone has it. In fact, he congratulated the Foundation when he was brought to Site 19 on how few of their personnel had the Pestilence. So while it may be an abstract concept, it's not life/mortality.
Maybe aggression? Or any type of agressive behaviour. He felt accomplished when he managed to stabalize 096 so maybe the pestilence is aggression or anger
@@benjaminoechsli1941 yeah because almost all of the personel and the agents are trained to keep calm and not show any rash behaviour so my best guess is agression
@@jayrgear2364 I think it's pain
Did you see the little face hidden in his bone? I can see the ear and the right side of his face look 0:43
I feel like 049 is that side character that always thinks he's the best when he just makes things worse, but hes so sweet the others just accept it
Lmao he cured him only for an hour only for the same thing to happen and kill all around him 🤣
