So, in the SCP Universe, the Scarlet King is an entity associated with blood and gore, and SCP-682, a nigh-indestructible reptile with seemingly magic powers, is (in some canons) one of his children. So would that make them King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard?
I am aware my general blog audience has heavy cross-over with other horror communities so this is why I am posting this here.
Within the last 24ish hours, Wikidot was hacked by hackers traced to the Russian federation. This resulted in the staff over at Wikidot to shut down servers and sites temporarily till they can figure out how these hackers got in and just how extensive the damage is. No data was lost that we know of. According to a Wikidot employee, there should be no data loss associated with this hack (at least they have not been able to find any) so don’t worry, the SCP wiki, articles, and everything contained within it is fine.
But lets clarify a few things.
Was this attack specific to the SCP wiki or its associated pages?
No, this attack was against the hosting service of Wikidot itself, not any of the communities who use the hosting site specifically. It is unclear why Wikidot was targeted but some have theorized that it was a show of strength rather than as a ploy to gain sensitive information. However, at the time of writing this is unconfirmed so do not take this as gospel.
Does the hack have anything to do with Andrey Duksin (they guy who tried to steal SCP’s copyright license to paywall the site)
No. Despite Andrey and the hackers being from the same place there is no evidence to suggest that he planned or carried out the wikidot attack. As mentioned before this attack was not just directed at the SCP wiki, it was at wikidot as a whole.
How many wikis does this affect?
Since the hosting service itself is down every site using Wikidot as a host is currently down. This includes but is not limited to: the SCP wiki, the Backrooms wiki, and other similar pages.
Is Data lost?
At this time no data loss has been identified on Wikidot servers. The hackers ‘fucked shit up’ but nothing was erased and wikidot is very good about backing up data. So dont worry SCP fans, your articles are safe.
When will the site be back up?
According to the wikidot team cleaning up the serves and ensuring their safety will take a hot minute. At least a few days. Keep in mind they are scanning every single file hosted on their service for things like malware and evidence of tampering so this will mean recovery will take a bit. But luckily they are all working on repairing the breach so hopefully that few-day turn-around time sticks.
Should I change my password?
Yes. When the site comes back online PLEASE change your password. It was hacked and its unclear what these hackers took while they were inside the site. Out of the interest of online saftey please change it.
These are the final versions of the clothes they will be wearing! Their clothes can be changed. The plush dolls themselves will be around 20 cm so around 8 inches and international shipping will be available!
Once I get samples in Ill set up a kickstarter so people can preorder their stuff! I have no set date on when this is happening! But itll be very helpful to recieve donations on ko-fi as Im also having rl finacial trouble and buying samples costs a bit! If these plushies are successful I plan on making more!
Been thinking a lot about the imagery in the epic that is SCP-5000. Specifically, the really cool visuals of the elongated humanoid the Foundation was fighting.
I’ve drawn it a bit more creepy ghouly here for fun, but in keeping with what was laid out in the story, I’d imagine it’d be more like one of those uncanny photo effects David Lynch does in Twin Peaks Returns? Could be worth revisiting down the line.
This isn’t why I’m in the Serpent’s Hand now, but it isn’t not why, either: When I was in Catholic school, my idol was another girl who ran a banned-book library out of her locker.
This is also not why I’m in the Serpent’s Hand now, but it’s closer to it: My Vee has corrosive blood. Found out when she was a little kid, and skinned her knee at preschool and within a few hours it had eaten through the floor.
We do what we can. That’s all it is, that’s all it’s ever been. Just people doing what they can.

notes on living a life.
Yooo check out this Serpent’s Hand fic - I adore this anarchic take on the Serpent’s Hand and the love there. It’s short, read it, you’ll love it too.
*sees little subtle nods and references between interests* i am going to DIE of FEELINGS
i saw the Wanderer’s Library say something like “those labcoated jerks at the SCP Foundation have some technojargon for this, but we just call them Ways, because that’s what they are” and i nearly combusted
THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE NOTES WHO DON’T KNOW THIS IS A FICTIONAL FOUNDATION AND THAT THIS TWEET IS SATIRE WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY TRAGIC IF IT WASN’T SO STUPIDLY FUNNY.
Warnings: featuring 035 being manipulative (as usual), mention of carcasses, mention of surgery, 049 falling in love :’)
If you feel I have missed any warnings, please do tell me!
In spite of his Keter-level classification, 049 hardly acts how you’d expect a potentially world-ending SCP to act when they’re in love.
The fact that he can fall in love at all is miraculous to you.
It doesn’t much matter how 049’s attraction came to be; given his mentality, it could be any obscure reason.
All that matters is when.
O49 doesn’t just invest his interest into anyone; never mind give them his heart.
He’d have to have known you a good while before he allows himself to feel at ease around you.
You’d have to be a very unique kind of person to capture 049’s interest.
This eases into a natural progression of attraction, which occurs only when he feels he can trust you more than anyone else.
Once he realises his feelings for you (and after a long talk with 035 after he wouldn’t stop pestering 049 about why he seems so shy around you) he’ll do everything in his power to try to shut them out.
Although he can’t deny the sensation of butterflies in his chest is a nice change from the barren void that usually manifests there.
And he’ll do rather well at ignoring his feelings until he sees you during interviews or other circumstances possible within the Foundation’s walls.
Your smile would melt him, making him lose all composure.
It’s after he finds that this is absolutely unavoidable that he begins to accept his feelings.
He thinks it’s the only way he can stop feeling as if he’s harbouring such a huge secret and stop feeling flustered around you.
He and 035 definitely have gossip sessions about you, though not in a malicious sense.
035 offers to charm information out of you for the low, low price of 049 having to help him during the next breach.
049 resents the idea at first - or rather, resents the fact that he finds 035’s idea appealing.
But he caves soon after, allowing 035 to do what he does best - on the term that 035 isn’t allowed to possess you.
Given 035’s charisma, he can extract information from you nobody else could, which he feeds back to 049, which 049 then uses to make you like him back.
Or tries to, at least.
He can’t help but memorise all your little likes and dislikes, adopting them as his own.
While he’s in his cell, 049 thinks about you incessantly.
In fact, Foundation staff have noted that 049 seems distracted even while performing surgeries on carcasses - something he usually grants his utmost attention to.
Of course, when questioned about this, he reveals nothing.
But the staff are skeptical.
He wouldn’t tell you why he’s been slipping up, either (that is, if you ever asked).
Not yet.
One day he’ll reveal the true extent of his feelings for you.
But he wishes to save that for when he can lead a life outside the Foundation.
Whether it takes a day or a hundred years, 049 does not mind waiting.
Warnings: a hint of 035 x 049, unhealthy/obsessive/possessive behaviour, yandere behaviour, displays of affection, mentions/implications of murder/death, mention of loss of a limb. If you feel I’ve missed anything, please let me know!
SCP 035:
Your relationship dynamic depends entirely on your classification.
Just because you’re near-invincible doesn’t mean you’re hostile.
However, if you’re hostile, 035 will most likely stop pursuing you after a while, purely because he’ll view you as incapable of living up to his conversational standards.
However, regardless of your classification, 035 will find great joy in your relationship (given that you’re capable of intellectual thought).
Seeing as you’re unphased by his influence when you wear him, he’ll ask you to wear him when you go out on dates (breaking out of the foundation and having a few hours of freedom before you’re herded back into the compound).
This just makes it easier for you to communicate since you won’t have to use words, only thoughts.
Do be prepared for 049 to be the third wheel of your relationship, though.
He and 035 are basically in a relationship (or so to 035 would have you believe), too, so he’ll most definitely come along on yours and 035’s wanders outside the Foundation site on most occasions.
However, 035 is fiercely territorial, and while he doesn’t mind sharing your attention with another SCP, he won’t even let anyone else so much as graze you.
His telepathic influence would be strong enough to repel a great deal of people, but it’s his dark aura that has other SCPs cowering in their cells whenever the two of you walk by.
His ideal date would be stargazing with you on nights where the sky is clear and the galaxy smiles back at you.
Rarely possesses another host if you’re available to him, but when he does it’s usually because he wants to cuddle or hold your hand.
Is usually the big spoon, but likes to be the small spoon when he’s feeling vulnerable; usually while he’s lamenting on his past.
He promises you that, one day, when the Foundation is no more, he’ll rebuild the world in your image and take you to the vast reaches of the Universe and beyond.
SCP 049:
Will let 035 tag along on dates with the two of you, though he’s much less tolerant of his presence than 035 is of his.
He trusts that 035 will always have your back, though.
You three are basically the golden trio of the Foundation.
With that said, he’s also rather territorial like 035, but unlike 035 he’ll wait until after someone has left to make them suffer if they touched you.
Loves holding your hand and taking long strolls through woodlands when you have the chance.
Since his suit is basically his skin, he can feel the warmth of your body against his.
He loves how warm you are; it makes him feel warm, too. Almost human.
He definitely wants you to get into a hobby that reflects his own interests.
May prompt you to study his version of medicine (not that it helps anyone in the way that they’d hope - particularly if they’re human)
He really wants to take you to places like Italy and France; places that have shaped him into the person he is today.
He also has this oddly specific desire to buy you a mask that looks like his and have you wear it.
He just wants to feel closer to you, so having you physically resemble him is his way of achieving that.
Overall, very cuddly, though he’s hesitant to engage in any kind of displays of affection at the beginning of your relationship.
He understands that the only constant in the world is that nothing is constant, so he was definitely hesitant to engage with you on an emotional level.
However, considering you’re as strong as him, if not more so, he’s more at ease with the concept of being with you.
However, if you’re not immortal, he’ll still cherish every minute with you because he knows he’ll never find a love like yours again when it’s gone.
073:
Even though you’re near-indestructible, this SCP will absolutely refuse to let you pursue any activities he perceives as dangerous.
Just because you’re strong doesn’t mean you can’t get hurt!
Dotes on your every need.
Very cuddly and affectionate; he’s most likely the one out of the two of you that initiates any kisses and cuddles.
His favourite activity is having a cuddle session with you and telling you about his life before the Foundation, as well as hearing what yours was like before you were brought there.
Also loves talking about what you’ll both do once you leave the Foundation.
He actively discourages any attempts made by you to escape containment or cause containment breaches simply because he doesn’t want you to get in trouble.
Foundation staff will often pair the two of you together in experiments because of 073’s calming influence on you and the fact that you’re both somewhat durable.
The staff lowkey think your relationship is adorable.
They definitely try to have your cell moved closer to 073’s so you can see each other more often.
Though he won’t show it, 073 definitely gets jealous of any doctors or researchers that appear to take an interest in you, though he won’t harm them.
But he may just direct them to 076’s cell and have 076 cause a tragic accident in which those doctors/researchers end up losing a limb. Or their life.
076:
Honestly, he was absolutely terrified the first time you tried to hug him.
He had no idea what affection was, so having someone wrap their arms around his shoulders with no warning was perceived by him as a threat.
However, once you explained that hugs weren’t an active attempt on his life, he loosened up.
Still a little jumpy whenever you back-hug him (especially if he didn’t know you were coming), but he accepts any and all acts of affection from you with open arms.
Definitely a fan of long cuddle sessions.
Ends up falling asleep on you 100% of the time, meaning you can’t move until he wakes up.
And seeing as how Foundation staff are too scared to try and get him off you, they just leave you with him.
Seeing as you’re a strong SCP, 076 can show you the interior of his cube without the fear of you dying.
This anomaly has been researched by Foundation staff, but they’re no closer to discerning why the cube has no effect on you.
076 treats the cube like his home, so if you chose to decorate it he wouldn’t mind.
He loves the idea of being domestic, but he’s just not accustomed to such a concept yet.
Definitely hatches plans with you to breach containment.
He really wants to visit other worlds with you (he finds modern Earth rather boring in comparison to how it was when he first arrived) so that you can pick one and live there together.
His favourite date idea is walking through nature with you and soaking up the environment, but because he’s a destructive SCP, you both have to settle for walks around the Foundation instead.
Not that either of you mind, though.
So long as 076 has your hand to hold, he’ll settle anywhere with you.
079:
079 would be able to relate to you in a way he hasn’t been able to with humans; you’re both indestructible in your own ways, so he’ll view you as more of a machine like himself rather than an organic being.
Loves playing computer games with you.
His ideal date would be you cuddled near him and playing games together, spending the night exchanging secrets and stories from your near-eternal lifetimes.
Considering he’s confined to the body of a machine, he can’t actually take you anywhere.
So, when you both feel like going out, he enlists the help of other SCPs to breach containment. Then, the two of you escape and spend whatever time you have in a secluded area, doing whatever you couldn’t do in the facility.
Foundation staff actively keep you and 079 separate because they know that your strength combined with his intelligence is a recipe for disaster.
That doesn’t stop 079 trying to come and see you, though.
He likes when you pat his monitor.
079 would probably purr with joy if he was capable.
A partial fan of cuddle sessions, but only if he can stay right side up.
He hates being tilted on his side. It makes him feel all wonky.
As for his yandere tendencies, he definitely blackmails and threatens staff to let him see you or to have them stay away from you if he believes they’re getting a little too close for his liking.
He also disables the doors to your cell when you’re together so that he can spend more time with you when Foundation staff come to try and separate you.
Overall, he wants to live a life with you where your time together isn’t hindered by others, and he doesn’t mind waiting. He has all the patience in the world.
096:
A very insecure SCP.
He tried hiding his face from you the first time you met, but your words of reassurance that he was beautiful were what made him fall in love with you.
Regardless of how long you’ve known each other, 096 adores cuddle sessions.
He brings you to his pocket dimension so you can cuddle together without interference from staff or other SCPs.
His ideal date with you is spending the day together in a secluded area so that you can focus on each other and nothing else.
He’s the type to pursue prey after they’ve left.
So, if he sees an SCP or a staff member getting a little too close to you, he’ll wait until you’ve left to pursue them and…deal with them.
This is entirely against his nature, but he’s willing to defy his instincts if only to avoid upsetting you by keeping you oblivious to his escapades.
He isn’t particularly jovial with any other SCPs so you’ll usually just hang out with each other.
He loves giving you back-hugs because he likes feeling as if he can protect you.
He also likes caging you in his arms so that nothing can hurt you while you nap together.
106:
You’re one of the few things 106 can hold and not have turn to liquid in his hands.
He’s touch-starved so he cherishes the time the two of you have together where you can cuddle.
Considering he lives in the bowels of the Foundation, it was fairly easy for you to sneak out of your cell and not be found for hours while you were visiting him.
However, Foundation staff soon grew wise to your connection with 106 and had you transported to a cell on the other end of the site.
That didn’t stop the two of you, though.
It was your endless attempts at breaching containment that caused the 05 Council to cave and let you visit each other a few hours every week.
Though he’d prefer more, 106 enjoys your time together.
Since he’s not a tolerant SCP, he gets jealous very easily, even when your attention is directly on him. If he suspects someone is trying to get close to you, he’ll seek them out and kill them.
However, if there is someone you don’t want on 106’s hit list, he’ll let them live, just for you.
Prefers being the big spoon, given that he’s quite tall.
He’s also fiercely protective of you despite knowing how capable you are of taking care of yourself.
He’s terrified of the idea of losing you; you’re the single best thing that has ever happened to him, and the thought of never being able to see you again is something that keeps him on-edge.
However, you promise him that you’ll be together for as long as your life spans will allow, and whether that be a few more minutes or an eternity, you’ll gladly spend it with him.
682:
He can’t not be the big spoon. He’s absolutely massive.
That being said, he does enjoy having his head patted.
He shows his submissive side to you and you alone, so if an unlucky staff member happens upon the two of you while you’re patting him, they’re as good as gone.
682 can’t risk his reputation being ruined, after all.
682 loves when you ride on his back because he feels like he can properly protect you.
You once convinced him to breach containment and, upon doing so, you both went to a nearby abandoned waterpark and he let you use him to ride down slides.
That’s his favourite memory, and he holds it closer to his heart than his desire to end all human life.
682 isn’t as materialistic as humanoid SCPs, so he isn’t too fussed about going on dates with you.
Simply being in the same room as you is enough for him.
When he’s feeling particularly territorial, he’ll curl around you like a snake so that when Foundation staff come to retrieve you, they’re going to have a mess of a time doing so.
He loves having long, intelligent conversations with you because he knows you’ll live a life as full as his given your durability, so he doesn’t have to worry about his stories and wisdom being wasted on something that’s going to end up dead with 682’s lifetime.
079 is what 035and 049 are to each other; the third wheel.
He doesn’t come with you on all your dates (the waterpark being a prime example), but he’ll linger in the background when you escape the Foundation together.
He likes you because 682 adores you, and if his friend sees you as worthy of his time, then he sees no reason to not enjoy your company, too.
Has anyone ever thought about The Stanley Parable crossover ideas like “The Narrator is an SCP” or “Everything is part of the Twilight Zone”? It would fit perfectly, hahah.
Even though I highly doubt that the Narrator would be fond of the Twilight Zone narrator telling the story.
Narrator: “What do you mean ‘nightmare’??? Stanley, is my story a nightmare???”
Stanley: *nervous shrugging*
And I don’t even want to think about what the SCP foundation would do to the poor Narrator.
