So guys I've got an idea for an SCP I wanted to run past you.
Ok so it's a mask (or maybe welding goggles??). And when you fall asleep in the same room as the mask, it levitates a couple of inches over your face, and as soon as you open your eyes after waking up it latches onto your face and does unspeakable things
I'm guessing it can only move by itself when not being directly observed, or only when detecting alpha or delta brainwaves. It hovers right over your face for as long as it likes, then as soon as you open your eyes to see it, BAM.
And it needs open eyes to send its feelers in through your pupils to feed on the juicy brain meats or whatever.
It's playing on that old "There's something here, I can feel it, and it'll get me as soon as I open my eyes" thing.
I had an idea... anyone can feel free to use/embellish it for yourself if you like it or ignore it if it sucks.
An object, something everyday like a pen, that is completely normal in every measurable way. It operates normally, is most definitely not indestructible whatsoever, and in any and all tests it gives back a result of "normal."
Except it's been used in test after test after test because for some reason it is entirely impossible to convince anyone that it is only an (object).
It sounds a little cliched to me, but I can't get it out of my head so I figured I'll exorcise it here.
man 682 is awesome. You aren't supposed to take it seriously, it's basically godzilla.

Its not awesome. And "don't take it seriously" isn't the perfect cure for shitty writing. I'd be a fool for taking any of these seriously, but somehow I'm supposed to take the really bad ones extra-not-seriously.
The only thing I'm not taking seriously around here is you.

Well, i would be quite annoyed if you took a light hearted statement as serious.
So I guess that is good we are both being silly on this here internet forum.
Also Tommy, it's not a bad idea per-say, but it's not exactly good either.

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
gotta be a gas mask
edit: oh shit Rhesus that's what you were talking about
My bad.
I was thinking more along the lines of boring your face out like that one shot in Aliens

Man someone should do a thing like that fungus that makes ants climb trees and flash their butts at birds
only
only it does it to people
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
so like
imagine a person gets infected by a fungus or something
and it compels you to go into the ocean
and when salt water hits your body you start bleeding from every orifice
because the fungus likes sharks
also you're aware the whole time but cant stop yourself
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
screw that, I want this to happen
Makes you climb to the highest point possible, then you vomit just gallons of spores into the air until you die.
Go Miles.

There was something I saw in a video that did this to slugs.
it somehow took control of the slug, and made it crawl out into the open.
At the same time it also made it's color change so that it would look very tasty to birds, so that it'd get ingested.
Nature can be fucking terrifying.
Neat!
Those look like modern athletes though.
(It's definitely the latter.)
Man I love this idea.
Gonna write up a draft and post it on the forums over there for advice
fake edit: turns out there's already a couple of fungal infection SCPs.
This one's pretty cool
and this one has kind of a gross image, don't say I didn't warn you. Otherwise very cool.

awesome name
sorry for the second break right after the first
having a social life and doing pro bono work on the side kills my internet productivity
gonna try to bring the game back to life very soon
Dammit I can remember reading that. Oh well.

I hate that thing so bad.
The picture is obviously a fucking tree stump and the fact that it hates all life makes me completely unable to take it seriously.
Also, I'm surprised by the number of SCPs that are just "scary doors"
The only thing I'm not taking seriously around here is you.
I'd say the picture is an extremely decomposed cow or horse or something like that. Don't know how you see a tree stump.

basically, it would be the sleeping face of the earth, somewhere under a glacier at the north pole
the notees section of the page could maybe imply that most planets are actually sentient?
I dunno, I was kinda heat strokin out at the time
