Item #: SCP-0000 < shouldn't have named it, retrospect 20/20

Object Class: Euclid Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-0000 is not to be spoken of. The town of [Town] is to be completely electrically separated from the greater power grid of [Country], and placed in quarantine under the cover story of an outbreak of [Disease].
don't type about SCP-0000, don't put it on any electric medium
Description: SCP-0000 is an infectious electrical grid originating in [Town], [Country]. All electricity that flows through SCP-0000 becomes SCP-0000-1, SCP-0000's primary vector of infection. Once SCP-0000-1 reaches a grid trunk, the grid trunk becomes part of SCP-0000. How SCP-0000 infects other aspects of electrical grids is currently not fully understood, though it is hypothesized to do so through conversation. and information in general

Electricity contained in any object (or system) directly conceptually related to SCP-0000 will become SCP-0000-1. Depending on the object, this conversion may directly turn the object into a continuation of SCP-0000. objects not immediately becoming SCP-0000 will want to

SCP-0000 spreads more rapidly when it is the subject or an indirect subject of a conversation. This vector is currently not fully understood, but had compromised two Sites before being identified and counteracted.
but what's it do??

Addendum-1: This is Dr. Hillenburg, and this is all I could find on SCP-0000. Current hypothesis is that the database became SCP-0000 and is removing information on itself. My fear is that SCP-0000 has since infected the entirety of SCiPnet, and could use that as a vector to infect more. I don't know. I certainly can't talk to anyone about it, so my first course of action is to write this all out, and see if I can show it to someone important.

I simply find it unlikely that it affects speech and not typing too.





Turns out, not furry shit. Okay, DogTeeth. Here's my idea.

These are vague ideas, but, the power grid in [Town] is sick. How and why it is sick is something for the last addendum to address. But what we need to know is that this sickness spreads through electricity, and is semi-conceptual in nature. If someone talks about SCP-0000, the electricity in their body becomes another vector of SCP-0000-1, and that electricity desires to return to the electrical grid. If it can, it wants to return to the electrical grid through a main generator (something that SCP-0000-1 can't infect by just going through the power grid because electricity only flows out of those generators, not back in).

Essentially, something in [Town] is bleeding, and SCP-0000-1 is its sick, infected blood. I think we can really play with how SCP-0000-1 tries to get out of people's bodies and back into the power grid, and also somewhere on the edge of my mind are some horrific images of whatever's at the generator in [Town] (what might happen to other power grids should SCP-0000-1 get to the generator, maybe). So, my question to you: you dig it?

THEMES TO MIX AND MATCH FOR MAX CREEP AND WEIRDNESS:

  • Electricity
  • Speech
  • Disease
  • Other Biology
  • Bleeding

Dog Teeth — though pretty cool, it's not quite a concept I find myself emotionally drawn to; if you'd like, I can see what other ideas I can brainstorm with the general themes, or produce some on my own!
