shows I think people should check out during the owl house hiatus (some of these there's a good chance everyone looking at this post has watched it's just there in case they haven't)

1. Amphibia. Most people looking at this post have seen this show the fandoms are practically next to each other

2. Gravity Falls. If you've seen the owl house there's a good chance you've seen this but if you haven't you need to it's incredibly well done and has wonderful plot, emotional moments, and so forth. It helped me through the toh hiatus

3. Netflix's She-ra and the princess of power. This one came before toh and most people in the owl house fandom have seen it but if you somehow haven't watch it

4. Kipo and the age of wonderbeasts. This cartoon is cool and all the good words. The main charector is voiced by the same person who voiced Glimmer on She-ra and the princess of power. You can watch it on netflix

5. Rick and Morty. You can watch this on hulu and adult swim. It's funny.

6. The Hallow. It's really well done it's on netflix really enjoyable.

7. The promised neverland. You can find it on hulu. It's a anime really fun I'm not a huge anime fan but I really enjoyed the promised neverland.

X-15: SCP-ABK

- Testing with SCP-ABK/ Origin Point of Event: Simulated City-01

Day 1: SCP-ABK is introduced in a local park to ensure maximum possibility of accidental infection. 

Day 2: A strange sickness where people have strange growths on their body has been reported in City-01. Authorities warn civilians to remain cautious, stay sanitary, and social distance. 

Day 3: The number of those that are infected is slowly increasing despite the warning. Those who were already infected start to mysteriously disappear. 

Day 4: Infection rates are down but disappearances of those that are sick, continue.

Day 5: People have reported strange black ooze and mold growing in random places. Certain families have reported random disappearances but the police and media agree to keep that part quiet. 

Day 6: People have reported getting stabbed by the growing mold and becoming sick. Disappearances are now public knowledge and people are demanding answers. The local officials unfortunately don’t know much either. 

Day 7: Mandatory curfews have been established to help people stay safe and try to stop the random disappearances. The government is still trying to find safe ways to get rid of the black mold appearing everywhere. 

Day 10: The curfews are mostly working as disappearances have been going down but are still happening. Clean up crews have been established to get rid of the black mold; However, some workers have reported that new patches are growing in places they cleaned thoroughly. 

Day 12: Strange creatures have been reported all around city-01. Mold sightings and infection rates have spiked. Authorities in City-02 and City-08 are on high alert and refusing to allow people from City-01 to enter. 

Day 14: City-01 has fallen into paranoia and anarchy; the population has been cut in by a third overnight, and people have reported sudden light sensitivity on their children. Some have even reported that their children now cry or bleed the black mold despite being healthy. 

Day 15: The population has been cut by two thirds; the remaining survivors have rounded up near the tunnels leading to City-02 and City-08. Authorities in City-02 were successful in keeping civilians out but City-08 failed to keep people out, riots eventually broke out and the city was left in anarchy trying to sort the people out.

Day 16: City-01 has become a ghost town, the few survivors that are still in the city have isolated themselves but are barely surviving. City-02 is constructing a wall and defensive plans to keep SCP-ABK out. They are also making plans to make another wall over the tunnel that connects to City-03 should it ever spread that far. City-08 has failed to contain SCP-ABK and now the population has been cut by one fourth. Refugees are already running to City-07, it is unknown if any of said refugees are infected. 

Day 17: City-01 has been taken over by the SCP-ABK-1 instances. There are even sightings of SCP-ABK-1 instances that are roaming the city at night and even sightings of them holding non infected babies and holding the hands of uninfected children like parents. Anarchy has descended onto City-08 as the population has now been cut by two fourths overnight. City-07 has unfortunately confirmed that they have spotted sightings of strange creatures and black mold in certain areas. Out of paranoia, City-06 has blocked off the tunnel leading to City-07. City-05 is not taking any chances and has blocked off the tunnel leading to City-06 as well. 

Day 18: City-08 has now descended to anarchy as the population is now cut by three fourths. Half of the remaining population has either joined with the local authorities to try and kill off SCP-ABK and root out all its hiding places while the other half is trying to go to City-07. City-07’s population has been cut by one fourth overnight. Its authorities have failed to keep the order as 08 citizens entering the city have caused a panic. City-06 has set up traps and deadly barricades to keep 08 citizens and 07 citizens out. There are also armed guards around who are permitted to shoot both infected and non-infected civilians who get too close. Flamethrowers have also been distributed to burn the bodies in order to prevent further infection. Government Officials of City-06 are trying to cooperate with City-05 to show that the infection has not reached them. 

Day 19: City-08 has completely fallen to SCP-ABK with SCP-ABK-1 instances now raising the remaining children at night but hunting any living survivors. City-07 has been sent into anarchy as a majority of SCP-ABK-1 instances went into the city that night causing it to be cut by three fourths that night. City-06 has been successful in keeping the infected out. City-05 has brought down its walls to allow transportation between the cities again. 

Day 20: City-07 has fallen to SCP-ABK, City-02 through City-06 are the only cities not infected. They continue to plan for the possibility of SCP-ABK breaking through the walls but are sure that there’s no way they can get through. 

Day 21: Random children all throughout City-02 through City-06 suddenly explode and spread SCP-ABK in a spore like gas. It turns out that the SCP-ABK-1 instances have been kidnapping children from other cities and replacing them with SCP-ABK replicas without anyone realizing it. Upon this the remaining cities fall into anarchy. With no one maintaining the walls or tunnels the SCP-ABK-1 instance flooded the cities at night.

Day 22: There are barely any survivors and even fewer who aren’t infected. At this point the Foundation has declared the test over. 

Result: Clean up teams were sent in with necrosis venom, chemical sprayers with acid canisters, and flamethrowers to clean the entire cities. To prevent infection the non-infected children under SCP-ABK-1's care were killed off as well. It took twenty days to get rid of SCP-ABK and rebuild the cities. The Foundation has concluded that SCP-ABK is more dangerous than originally hypothesized and much smarter as well. Should SCP-ABK ever be unleashed on the public it can lead to an XK Class End-of-the-World Scenario within a year, possibly much shorter. As such, sending SCP-ABK to Site-AG has been concluded as the right choice.

So, hear me out...

[chromas-terraria-shenanigans]

So I converted the stone in my Aether cave to pearlstone. This is what it looks like now:

And now I need to come up with a better build for it. Maybe something celestial themed to go with the starry-looking background?

Field Notes 10/26-- The Shan, PISCES, and the Changelings

This isn't a full Field Notes, just me putting the idea out there and thinking out loud so I can organize my thoughts better or maybe get some insight into people's opinions on the matter. Making content during the 80s cowboy era is a great opportunity to flesh out PISCES more and have them directly involved with the major struggle at the core of the Conspiracy. They haven't quite been fully subsumed by the Shan at that point, leaving room for a secret war between the members of PISCES not yet infected, those under its will, and Delta Green itself.

But the 90s and certainly into the modern era PISCES is written as entirely a lost cause and purely an opposition figure with Delta Green just picking up the slack recruiting British agents directly into the ostensibly American-based conspiracy or later as a sort of international task force under the Program. There's an unsaid rule leaving the United Kingdom and interaction with PISCES as more or less off limits to interfere in with the line members of Delta Green being none the wiser as to why. This... Really feels like a fun twist that was incorporated into one of the devs original campaigns applied to the 90s setting fully in Countdown but was never really meant to have the long term consequences fleshed out. If I'm being open I've never been a fan of it due to the massive suspension of disbelief, walling off a huge amount of possibilities for interaction, and feel like it just kind of falls flat put against modern tastes in horror when this massive question mark is revealed to the players as "its all parasitic space flies from this obscure Ramsey Campbell story that few, if any of you, have read. Y-- Yeah, no you wouldn't know it. Yeah no, it was written a few decades after Lovecraft's death so it was nev-- Yeah. Also they have pet trees."

Don't get me wrong, I love the fact they incorporated it into the setting as a twist and was an interesting idea when it was originally implemented. But having read Countdown a few times it all reads like classic comic book weird fiction, and not in a good way. Its fun, and creative, but wasn't written in a way that lends itself to these sort of history and universe spanning deep state conspiracies that we have to work around decades later so much as seeming like a minor X-Files arc that should have just resolved itself as a one off in three episodes.

Now, for decades now Delta Green has always actively encouraged Handlers to pick and choose parts of the lore as they see fit and adapt it to fit whatever their personal horror tastes are, I've always appreciated that. So I've been thinking of ways to rewrite and adjust the Shan and how that fits into this secret war in the 1980s, the secret truth before it was buried and rewritten by those that survived, and how it can be useful writing stories and PISCES characters in modern settings. Particularly if it makes PISCES less a fully captured comic-book-villain organization and more of a genuinely competent organization just as fleshed out as Delta Green but absolutely crippled by an institutional paranoia over a war that never really ended.

Particularly, I've been playing around with the idea of adapting the Shen to fit more into stories of Changelings, faeries, and other Celtic and Brittonic legends. I've watched The Hallow recently and the way that these creatures are traditionally remembered before being romanticized by Shakespeare, and can see that as a very very good model for the Shen as these alien entities with a very old, very complicated relationship with the people of the British isles. Funny enough I also really like the idea of looking back to the way faeries were portrayed in older childrens books I used to enjoy, the Spiderwick Chronicles. Smashing these three unlikely sources together seem like a perfect template to turn the spooky MI-6-controled-by-space-flies into an equally horrifying story of changelings worming their way into positions of influence, but for ends less clear and recognizable to a race as young as ourselves. Perhaps even, less outright malicious and more understandable than our agents might feel comfortable with.

Tl;dr-- The Shan should be retconned to be stranded on earth much longer as, like, insectoid brittonic faeries. The process of PISCES agents getting taken over by Shan parasites should be less Invasion of the Body Snatchers and more The Hallow where the process of becoming a Changeling host for a Shan is... A bit more of a cooperative (if unwilling) sum-of-its-parts deal than just being a full on meat puppet. Curious on other thoughts or ideas to flesh this concept out more.

Oh, I've also lived near where this movie was filmed, which is also how this ended up on the list, but wow guess what it's folk horror!

Oh my god, I have been in forests like this and they're magical.

“Monstober Day 24: Goblin Faery” the reference is supposed to come from the movie, “The Hallow”but I’ve never seen it. So, I drew what I thought it would look like. #DigitalArt #Goblin #Monster #Monstober2023

The Hallow

[Corin Hardy • 2015 ]

[dzthenerd490]

File: The Hallow

SCP#: ABK

Code Name: Fairy Fungus/ Blood of the Fae

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: The forest that SCP-ABK originated from has been burned down to prevent SCP-ABK from infecting any more civilians. Collected samples are contained in six separate vials within a biohazard capsule.

The capsule is kept in an encryption locked freezer located at the Level 5 biohazard labs at Site-AG. Testing on SCP-ABK must never be conducted on Earth and can only be approved by Site Director Nex. Any Foundation spaceships that are reported coming to earth with samples of SCP-ABK are to be shot down regardless or reasoning, there are no exceptions. 

Description: SCP-ABK is an anomalous form of fungus that has the ability to completely alter the DNA of whatever organic material it infects. SCP-ABK, like all pathogens, works on the cellular level, though not via normal methods. SCP-ABK cells seem to have strange spike-like appendages that allow it to grab cells and stab them to inject its own DNA into the host cell. It's essentially a fungus that spreads via viral methods of cellular takeover; how this is even possible is unknown. 

Though this is not to say that SCP-ABK’s effects stop at the cellular level, as it infects and mutates the cells of the body the host starts to mutate as well. Unfortunate hosts of SCP-ABK will start to feel side effects right away, such as pale skin, ringing of the ears, hallucinations, paranoia, increased aggression, and mutations of the body. Bodily mutations include spikes growing out of random parts of the body, mostly the fingers and toes, as well as the skin being coated or even replaced with thick fungus coating that resembles tree bark. The infection of SCP-ABK lasts for about 24 to 48 hours which results in the host dying and being completely taken over by SCP-ABK and its mutations. 

The resulting SCP-ABK host now referred to as SCP-ABK-1 are humanoid monstrosities that greatly resemble trees with their skin resembling bark with what looks like tree branches growing out of them. They are quite strong, good at stealth, and have the ability to manipulate their flesh to allow them to attack and infect prey. SCP-ABK-1 instances are capable of secreting and even bleeding black ooze that carry the SCP-ABK infection to allow them to infect other creatures; they often use this method to create traps. Though they can infect almost anything organic they prefer to infect humans. Their only weaknesses are fire, sunlight, and even Iron.

Curiously SCP-ABK-1 instances as well as SCP-ABK itself hate iron as it seems to burn their skin quite similar to fairies in Irish folklore. Furthermore, they create doubles of infants and children they kidnap exactly like in Irish folklore; testing has shown that these replicas are seemingly no different to the original with the only indication being they have black blood like other SCP-ABK-1 instances. How this is possible or how they are able to create replicas of infants and children but not adults, or even why they never infect the infants or children after capture is unknown.

SCP-ABK-1 instances never infect children or infants of families they have taken from and replaced. Instead, they seemingly raise them as normal humans among the SCP-ABK-1 instances. It's unknown if they ever plan to infect the children they raise or perhaps do something else anomalous, and the Ethics Committee has not permitted testing to go on long enough to find out. 

SCP-ABK was discovered in 2015 where it originally resided in the Irish forest of [data expunged] before containment by the Foundation. It was discovered when a local logging company reported harvesting logs with strange black goo coming out of them. A local health investigation team and police force was sent in to investigate but neither reported back to their superiors after 5 hours of being at the logging company's building. After an additional 2 hours the entire building went dark which led to local authorities altering the government, this is when Irish Foundation staff found out about a possible anomalous incident and ordered the local authorities to lock down the area. 

Mobile Task Force Epsilon-6 "Village Idiots” was sent in as basic reconnaissance to see what exactly the Foundation was dealing with. Though information was obtained the entire squad of four MTF Epsilon-6 units were wiped out by SCP-ABK-1 instances. Afterwards Mobile Task Force Beta-7 "Maz Hatters” was quickly sent in with the proper protection gear and sterilizing equipment as well as necrosis venom weapons. The MTF units were unable to clean the area of SCP-ABK out of the building, but they were able to obtain samples of SCP-ABK without getting infected or killed by SCP-ABK-1 instances.

Afterwards local civilians and the logging company were questioned on where the infected logs came from, all infected trees were located and burned down. The cover story was that American tourists entered the forest and accidentally started a fire that both killed themselves and burned the forest. The Irish government was surprisingly compliant in the cover story and even gave the idea to have them specifically blame Americans though one Irish representative was in favor of British tourists. Regardless, SCP-ABK has been successfully contained on Mars at Site-AG. Though due to its anomalous and volatile nature SCP-ABK has been heavily restricted on testing. 

Update [data expunged]: The Ethics Committee has finally approved testing for SCP-ABK at Site-AO, this request has been approved by the entirety of the O5 Council allowing SCP-ABK to be transported from Site-AG to Site-AO. It's thanks to the testing that we now know SCP-ABK is capable of [data expunged] and is far more intelligent than we realized. See Addendum X-15 for details.
