Exploring the SCP Foundation: SCP-7243 - Existential Abatement - Part Two

The Foundation slapped themselves really hard 😂

[@christopherlee9026]

That's the Foundation every other week it seems.

[@DenethorDurrandir]

The thing is, they almost got away with the waste deleting engine, it was some other Foundation screw up that caused the situation and also disabled the safeguards. For the Foundation's standards, they did an amazing job.

[@camelopardus5955]

It all comes back to being hishikakus fault, doesn't it

[@brendenmiles6839]

Especially in this reality where they seem to mess it everything up

[@EmeraldLance]

The event that Emelia used as an anchor was the one that took her husband, in which nobody believed there was a monster made of glowing ectoplasm. And in using that event, she summoned the very same monster, only this time she was able to see it. I'm anxious to see how this development plays out in the final part. Thanks for doing what you do, and Merry Christmas!

[@loganlewis1790]

It seems like the bootstrap paradox. Where the machine creates the events that allow it to exist

[@vereinigtestaaten6453]

Verne moment

[@Elmithian]

​@@loganlewis1790 This situation is still largely her fault. She blamed her husband's brother and pushed more and more guilt on him to the point he would agree to do anything to even remotely appease her. And he succeeded the impossible. Sure, she and key members were instrumental in its success, but man, the guy pulled it off, yet she despised him still. I know sorrow can make you irrational, but her demand of him was not just irrational, but insanely dangerous to all of reality if it didn't succeed. In short, I don't like her one bit. Like her as a character, sure. But as a person? She is trash.

Considering how many screwups this Foundation has caused (e.g. 642, the computer, lotus, etc. ) it’s crazy how they just get admonished from the Oracle.

The Oracle will not really be that annoyed so long as there doesn't appear to be any multiversal bleedout no?

Damn Emilia just continues to be consumed by her own hatred, slowly becoming everything she despises in others, particularly Deering.

[@kylcarci1472]

I love how this scp included Dr. William Wettle, and even amelia chose Wettle as the anchor is the most awesome way feature the most famous unlucky human being of scp universe.

[@RainbowGod666]

(Its always sunny in philadelphia theme)

[@Zikimura]

Lmao, Emelia lambasted her brother-in-law for how he viewed her husband then proceeds to mercilessly insult him and his work, and write him out as nothing more than a " glorified vending machine fixer" with a worthless job that anyone could do. Then she spends all her time arrogantly rambling about hating another man as the fuel that she needs for her survival and doing the work of a hundred technicians. What kind of a person writes characters like this? Are we really supposed to root for her?

[@MrLilredmachine]

I mean, she's certainly a character. I don't think you have to like her, the story is kind of about her facing the reality that the Deering that didn't get killed was telling the truth, and that accepting that was what allowed her back.

[@worldstateproductions8787]

>What kind of person write characters like this? Someone how only sees things from their own point of view, and who has no sympathy for flawed human beings.

[@Zikimura]

@@worldstateproductions8787 It's what happens when writers let their biases seep into their story telling.

[@worldstateproductions8787]

@@Zikimura It might not be just the fault of this author though. Apparently both Douglass and Amalia are legacy characters, and this is pretty consistent for their portrayal.

[@Center-For-I.E.D.Mismanagement]

​@@Zikimura Art imitates life. For example, you are emulating Emelia's general behavior quite well.

[@k1dr3d53]

I love your SCP videos! They are so calming!

[@aaronlefebre5060]

So the event that let her anchor the engine to reality is the event she refused to believe happened that killed her husband. What a way to be forced to confront reality.

[@joelhaggis5054]

This series, and especially this article, feels like a spiritual successor to SCP-1730. Except this time, instead of seeing the aftermath, we're seeing all the things that went wrong.

[@hat3th3hat3r2]

If this ties into what happened to site thirteen I am going to lose my shit. Plus the significance of 179 sobbing still fills me with existential dread...

You forgot to mention my favorite part of the article. The facility that still allows for waste to be delivered into Site-43 even while its disconnected from reality(mentioned at 27:17) is the one occupied by SCP-5520. That man is an absolute trooper and he deserves so much respect

[@Z.Ulysses]

Obligatory "Oh boy! Three AM!" aside, Am I wrong for drawing connections between Site 43 and Site 13?

[@trocytev8783]

Nah, PHMD's role in this mess has some parallels to Elliot Emerson sending Site-13 to the main universe. In the grand scheme of things, Place intentionally sent something to another universe (some ectoplasm to the original Site-43, creating the leak that spawned SCP-5243 and the impetus to build SCP-5956) to save his own skin while viewing the target universe as disposable. And he's got a body count like Emerson, too - because he's from the universe where 5956 became a time paradox that then devoured reality because Place stole the damn thing and left for ADMONITION's Earth, he is responsible for the deaths of billions, if not trillions. Although from there, things are vastly different. Emerson is of course caught by Site-13's anomalies and chained to the runic monster, while the articles for 5243 and 5956 indicate Place lives in a time loop that requires him to mess up one universe and utterly annihilate another. And he's already won, unlike Emerson.
