I really like how you wrote the hytoth leadership's rejection. It is so common for scp articles to have a higher up dismissing out of hand and cold and cruelly. But they why you wrote them really did feel like it came from a place of understanding and legitimate feelings of camaraderie.
Love your work on this Great writing with some underlying Dark Humor.I was blown away .Great Presentation by BT also the subtle differences in vocals really bring life to each character and their motivations.l give this a relisten every so often because it is so good.
Loved your Ortothans here! I prefer it when GOIs have relatable human motivations. The early years tended to have a lot more mustache-twirling villainy, but this is more intimate. Even mundane, in a way. Redwood’s grief and desperation to do good even while performing atrocities are palpable throughout. It’s a real “we aren’t so different, you and I” moment for the Foundation.
This really is a spectacular SCP! The human drama of survival vs. ethics, the forensic/engineering style of analysis of a religious magic is such a unique spin, the courage to go with what made the best story instead of copping out with a happily ever after, and the intensely believable characters with real, human motivations and complex moral worldviews... it really is a masterwork. I want to bombard you with questions about what you've written, but I don't want to intrude on your life. I just... I just want to thank you for an excellent story!
good stuff! this is great - the image and style you picked makes it much more reminiscent of the older scp foundation for me (even with a modern scp) - which I find rlly cool
BT, let me say ,this was a towering achievement.Always have loved Ortothan lore and this was as awesome as it was horrifying.Currently listening again to catch details l might have missed . Great Cautionary tale
