DolphinNation

Presently a page just with the Dolphin Nation chat logs and everyone involved with it. More to come.

<MuthSera>: LumGib: If you want to remain my #1 friend you'd better write me a dolphin skip.
<LumGib>: i might have an idea lol
<MuthSera>: Now we're talking.
<LumGib>: it also might end up a joke scp
<MuthSera>: Give me a cybernetic subnautic dolphin society. Like. Atlantis and shit.
<LumGib>: lol you read my mind actually wtf muthsera
<AbsentmindedNihilist>: it's okay
<MuthSera>: LumGib: we finish each other's
<LumGib>: sandwiches
<MuthSera>: Nice.
<neonskitty>: Also yes good idea
<AbsentmindedNihilist>: neonskitty amazing
<neonskitty>: Ye
<MuthSera>: OK. Dolphins. They communicate via Wifi.
<drblackbox>: How do the dolphins like, grabs stuff to build?
<MuthSera>: Telekenisis.
<MuthSera>: A projected energy field, obviously.
<LumGib>: okay that sounds good
<LumGib>: where do they get their cybernetics from
<MuthSera>: They make them.
<MuthSera>: Out of Coral and fragments of sunken ships.
<LumGib>: so like a society that evolved alongside humanity
<MuthSera>: No.
<MuthSera>: Recent
<LumGib>: hmm
<MuthSera>: We're talking industrial revolution
<MuthSera>: like us.
<LumGib>: sounds like humans are the dolphins scp1000
<MuthSera>: heh..
<MuthSera>: OK. So. They have developed a new deminsion of travel
<MuthSera>: which allows them to build vast cities in a small space
<MuthSera>: and allows them to evade detection and predation.
<LumGib>: their diet, fish or something else?
<MuthSera>: So, for any location measurable on the ocean floor, you can also measure X meters distance within the new direction.
<MuthSera>: Fish.
<LumGib>: interesting…
<Metaphysician>: …Oh, for a moment I thought you were talking about my draft.
<LumGib>: i think you got this down better than i do by far xD
<Metaphysician>: But mine is a) ancient history and b) not dolphins.
<MuthSera>: So. If you have a sound system playing 50 meters from you in that new direction from your location, it would be the same place as you, but would sound like it was 50 meters away.
<LumGib>: woah
<LumGib>: thats
<LumGib>: hmm my head hurts now
<LumGib>: lol
<MuthSera>: Metaphysician: dolphins are definately superior to everything else.
<LumGib>: things like this and the architect mess with my head
<MuthSera>: Dolphins can imprint information onto crystals (like silica found on the ocean floor) using their energy projection powers augmented by their cybernetics.
<MuthSera>: They imprint the information directly onto the quantum state of atoms there, by altering their spin.
<MuthSera>: And the information ends up being protected by the lattice of silica around them.
<LumGib>: so its an auto encryption technique
<LumGib>: interesting, another way to cover tracks
<MuthSera>: If you don't know how to read it, absolutely.
<LumGib>: especially if you dont know to look for it
<LumGib>: and who would with dolphins
<MuthSera>: ?
<MuthSera>: ah!
<LumGib>: sorry if my wording was weird lol
<MuthSera>: Nobody. They've got the drop on humanity.. since sonograms of the ocean floor of their cities mostly just return indistinct garbage because of the odd echoing properties of their other deminsionally constructed buildings.
<LumGib>: this is lowkey a great idea
<MuthSera>: Can you save this log? :3
<MuthSera>: We can write this shit together. Later.
<LumGib>: sure! id be down
<LumGib>: chromebooks limits are shining rn

<Metaphysician>: How long have the dwellings been there? Also, one problem - dolphins aren't really going to be in the deepest parts of the ocean.
<Metaphysician>: It would be weird for a mammal to focus on the seafloor.
<LumGib>: thats even better way to hide them
<MuthSera>: So they stick to the shallows as nessesary for their physical limitations.
<LumGib>: who would look for dolphins down there
<LordStonefish>: Argh
<LumGib>: or their cybernetics reduce their need for oxygen
<MuthSera>: LumGib: Pressure suits?
<Metaphysician>: I'm trying to figure out how aquatic cybernetics would develop.
<LumGib>: that could work, and they probably have the tech to make pressurized buildings
<Metaphysician>: Pneumatics would seem more possible.
<MuthSera>: metaphysician: Crystal conductors, using silica, salts, and [REDACTED].
<Metaphysician>: Harnessing electricity underwater seems like it won't get far.
<drblackbox>: LordStonefish So uh, what the fuck was going on in that SCP?
<Metaphysician>: Ahh, so not like, cybernetics in the traditional sense.
<MuthSera>: No.
<MuthSera>: Computers made out of solid blocks of silica.
<Metaphysician>: Anyway, back to my own aquatic civilization.
<MuthSera>: And powered by the dolphin's own projected energy field.
<drblackbox>: Yeah but how would pneumatics interface with the brain?
<MuthSera>: Drblackbox: Crystals.
<drblackbox>: What if they just did the research to create electronics on land bases and then invented water-proofed ones?
<MuthSera>: Land based dolphins?
<MuthSera>: or within non-aquatic subnautic enviroments?
<MuthSera>: IE: Like us creating a vacuum room.
<drblackbox>: No they're still water-based it's just a facility built above the water.
<drblackbox>: Like a reverse submarine.
<MuthSera>: Babe. I have to tell you something. I'm a dolphin.
<MuthSera>: *unzips suit.*
<MuthSera>: Dolphin.
<MuthSera>: But..
<MuthSera>: What about our kids?!
<MuthSera>: Also dolphins.
<LumGib>: ohhh now i remember the one fact about dolphins i knew… and locked away in my memories
<drblackbox>: How are they dolphins?
<MuthSera>: OK. So. May or may not have land based dolphins..
<MuthSera>: BUT
<MuthSera>: I can imagine them constructing massive crab like walkers
<MuthSera>: filled with water and crewed by 6-14 dolphins.
<The_Luggage>: ok, so, i know i just walked in on a "great idea", but i can't really tell what that idea is.
<The_Luggage>: all i know is dolphins
<MuthSera>: The_Luggage: Dolphin underwater advanced society.
<The_Luggage>: oh cool
<MuthSera>: With cybernetics
<MuthSera>: and blackjack
<The_Luggage>: cooler
<The_Luggage>: cyberpunk?
<drblackbox>: Dolphin Bladerunner?
<MuthSera>: Oh man.
<MuthSera>: We need to work through these possibilities.
<MuthSera>: Dolphin youth street gangs?
<MuthSera>: And a highly developed dolphin military?
<MuthSera>: Dolphin america.
<The_Luggage>: Dolmerica
<MuthSera>: ANYWAYS. The dolphin military has proven more than a match at repelling the foundation, but the foundation has proven moderately successful in preventing their excursions, so it's a bit of a stand off.
<LumGib>: its like a shitpost but it actually fucked with my head, lemme see if i can post it here
<MuthSera>: Mostly dolphin defensive structures. Not very mobile.
<drblackbox>: So like the cold war but instead of communism and capitalism it's dolphinism and humanism?
<The_Luggage>: wait, how would a dolphin fire a gun, cybernetic harness?
<MuthSera>: mm. Dolphin WMDs. We need to think about this a moment.
<MuthSera>: the_luggage: They use a projected energy field to move objects and interact with their cybernetics.
<MuthSera>: Natural to all dolphins.
<MuthSera>: So the SCP would literally be all dolphins.
<MuthSera>: OK. So. Are dolphins intent on expanding their active territory to all coasts? IE: A dolphin coast guard that's becoming increasingly hostile and agressive towards intrusion.
<LumGib>: yeah the dolphins want to have a dominance shift
<The_Luggage>: that sounds like a good goal for them, but we could say their current territory is only in the atlantic or something
<MuthSera>: IE: Going from nice dolphins, which maybe more natural behavior(for individuals) while slowly being gripped by a growing sentiment of a harsher, hawklike stance towards outsiders.
<LumGib>: i like that idea
<The_Luggage>: kind of becoming xenophobic after a while?
<LordStonefish>: drblackbox: It’s meant to be sort of an inverse SCP-087
<MuthSera>: Like.. it could be purely political. Japanese dolphin hunters showing up on dolphin news, who talk about it as if it were immigrant violence in the USA.
<The_Luggage>: intercepted transmission maybe?
<LumGib>: and talks about humanitys inherent damageto the ecosystem
<MuthSera>: The trash island in the pacific..
<MuthSera>: Oh man
<The_Luggage>: maybe it could end with a declaration of war?
<MuthSera>: They're pissed
<LumGib>: yepppp
<LumGib>: or attempted diplomatic contact without response
<The_Luggage>: yeah, some sort of official diplomatic communication
<MuthSera>: Nah. They respond.
<LumGib>: they already know what kinds of things we do to get our way, why would they even negotiate?
<MuthSera>: How they respond is another matter
<drblackbox>: And there's like, a director going through time and killing people?
<MuthSera>: All major world governments know about this.
<LumGib>: *prepares for termination*
<The_Luggage>: broken masquerade?
<MuthSera>: It's not a secret. The world leaders know. The foundation is trying to provide assistance in preparing.
<LordStonefish>: Maybe
<MuthSera>: Half broken. World leaders know. Normal people don't.
<LumGib>: oooh i like that, the foundation and the GOC have a reason to work tofether now
<drblackbox>: Do the dolphins know about anomalies and stuff?
<The_Luggage>: ooh yeah
<LordStonefish>: that’s very good, but not quite how I conceived it
<drblackbox>: That's kinda the big factor here if it's BM or not.
<MuthSera>: Drblackbox: Almost certainly about aquatic anomolies, sure.
<LordStonefish>: Not quite killing through time, but killing with time
<LumGib>: they made the mother in the ice
<MuthSera>: Dolphin christ.
<LumGib>: hahaha
<LordStonefish>: And it’s not a director
<MuthSera>: An important dolphin leader is murdered.
<MuthSera>: oh
<MuthSera>: man
<The_Luggage>: maybe accidently murderd by a fisherman
<LumGib>: dolphins have their own version of the foundation/GOC?
<MuthSera>: The_luggage not accidentally. Japanese.
<LordStonefish>: may i point out SCP-4222
<drblackbox>: So like, should the Foundation? not fight them if they're containing sea anomilies?
<MuthSera>: They still hunt whales and dolphins for meat.
<LordStonefish>: SCP-4222
<Secretary_Helen>: LordStonefish: SCP-4222: International Monetary Fish (Rating: +128. Written 253 days ago By: fieldstone) - http://scp-wiki.net/scp-4222
<MuthSera>: Oh shit
<MuthSera>: They could be doing just that
<MuthSera>: Their own dolphin foundation.
<MuthSera>: But less secretive amoungst dolphins
<MuthSera>: More contain and less secret.
<bluesoul>: the flipper skippers
<The_Luggage>: maybe it was secret, but the dolphins had their own broken masquerade
<drblackbox>: Oh god.
<MuthSera>: They're just as worried about certain XK scenarios as everyone else.
<drblackbox>: o FUCK
<LumGib>: yeah but they currently view humanity the way we see SCP-1000
<drblackbox>: How does the SPC tie into all of this?
<LumGib>: or at least did before we wiped them out
<MuthSera>: DrBlackBox: The dolphins are in direct competion for control of the Seas with humanity.
<MuthSera>: And possibly those telepathic octopi
<drblackbox>: Well maybe they shouldn't view the humans if the humans are also running a Foundation preventing XK bullshit.
<MuthSera>: Well, maybe the foundation should find the Dolphin's translated SCP page on the foundation and humanity?
<drblackbox>: MuthSera Yeah I get that I mean how does the SPC connect to this scenario?
<The_Luggage>: potential alliance between foundation and dolphin foundation, but hostile towards other world leaders?
<drblackbox>: *shouldn't fight the humans
<MuthSera>: DrBlackBox: I don't know yet, man. This is going alot of places.
<TRutherford>: More likely there'd be an alliance between the dolphin foundation and the SPC
<TRutherford>: Mutual enemies.
<MuthSera>: DrBlackBox: We may construct the SCP page like one of those "Several revision" SCPs to help describe the passing of time.
<MuthSera>: Trutherford: OR.. that they REALLY should be working together but they're not.
<MuthSera>: Kind of like the church of the broken god and the foundation… it's really delicate
<drblackbox>: TRutherford Yeah but the SPC is already inches away from punching dolphins.
<bluesoul>: church of the broken pod
<LumGib>: noooooo
<LumGib>: xD
<MuthSera>: I facepalmed
<MuthSera>: hard
<MuthSera>: at work
<The_Luggage>: wait, who's idea was this anyway
<bluesoul>: and why the fuck didn't i name my podcast that
<LumGib>: muth sparked it
<The_Luggage>: ah
<MuthSera>: The_luggage: I am at fault.
<LumGib>: bluesoul missed opportunity
<MuthSera>: I have no idea how to collaborate something like this. I still haven't finished my first SCP.
<TRutherford>: We Broadcast in the Dark, so you can Listen in the Light
<LumGib>: im still doing heavy editing, i got a ways to go before i have a draft thats good though
<MuthSera>: OK. So. Dolphin SCP file.
<MuthSera>: Initially: An SCP file describing the basic understanding of dolphin intelligence and abilities.
<MuthSera>: NEW REVISION
<MuthSera>: More new information
<MuthSera>: And from there, add a "refresh page" button that keeps adding more information as the situation escalates.
<MacMobile>: So long and thanks for all the fish
<drblackbox>: Or a K-class kills all the humans and the dolphins take over the Foundation.
<The_Luggage>: cover story for dolphin intelligence maybe in refresh one or two?
<MuthSera>: Luggage: ?
<ARD>: There’s definitely a skip like this in existence
<MuthSera>: ARD: Is there?
<drblackbox>: ARD A couple I'm pretty sure.
<MuthSera>: Crap. ;_;
<ARD>: Intelligent Marxist dolphins
<ARD>: Also intelligent sting rays
<MuthSera>: Dammit
<ARD>: .sea the dolphins
<Secretary_Helen>: ARD: Project Kenowhere Central Volunteer Hub: or, KTE-6561-Black, or, dolphinslugchugger and scarhaver's GAW-1 proposal, or, 8008132, or, Our Friend Who Lives By The Lake, or, The Lake, or, A Very Important Question, or, The Reason We Did Something New This Time, or, Go Big or Go Home (Rating: +148. Written 249 days ago By: dolphinslugchugger and scarhaver) - http://scp-wiki.net/scp-4239
<The_Luggage>: yes?
<ARD>: Hm
<drblackbox>: And the "new revisions as it gets worse" thing.
<ARD>: Not that one
<MacMobile>: If someone writes a dolphin scp, I'll be forced to come out of retirement to write the Hitchhiker's Guide Project Crossover story
<The_Luggage>: i mean, i would still be down for a large collab if we get an idea
<LumGib>: well at least we didnt do a full draft before realizing it
<LumGib>: thats what this chats for
<MacMobile>: ROUNDERHOUSE: I wrote Super Mario
<ROUNDERHOUSE>: .s the hitchhiker
<Secretary_Helen>: ROUNDERHOUSE: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Library (Rating: +24. Written 155 days ago By: mayoculpa) - http://scp-wiki.net/the-hitchhiker-s-guide-to-the-library
<ROUNDERHOUSE>: MacMobile: bada bing bada boom
<drblackbox>: Just make it something else increasing in intelligence.
<MuthSera>: Rounderhouse: Do you happen to know which SCPs my idea conflicted with?
<MacMobile>: ROUNDERHOUSE: I haven't been on the scp wiki for like two fuckin years
<MuthSera>: like.. the overly similar ones.
<drblackbox>: I've literally never read an SCP>
<MuthSera>: Learning that it's already been done really takes the wind out of my sails if that's true.
<ROUNDERHOUSE>: no clue man
<The_Luggage>: well, we could probably take the idea and do something similar
<LordStonefish>: Muthsera: 4222
<LordStonefish>: a little bit
<taylor_iOStkin>: TheMightyMcB: I’m a staff member on Agufish’s discord now lol
<LordStonefish>: MuthSera: also 3932
<MuthSera>: Lordstonefish: This doesn't seem similar at all.
<MuthSera>: This one, however….
<The_Luggage>: we could always do something similar, perhaps with a different animal, or slightly different concept/interactions
<LordStonefish>: MuthSera: 4222 ends with the Foundation creating a dolphin based taskforce that goes rogue
<LordStonefish>: 3922 is the australian dolphin empire
<MuthSera>: yeah. This one is definately on the same page.
<MuthSera>: oh. man.
MuthSera deflates.
LordofLaugh grabs bicycle pumpa
<MuthSera>: >:C
The_Luggage notices that you put pumpa instead of pump unless that was intentional
<MuthSera>: Yeah.. they use telekenisis. -_-
<MuthSera>: Too many similarities.
<MuthSera>: feels bad, man.
<The_Luggage>: well, what if we went full cyberpunk instead with a different animal
<LordofLaugh>: The_Luggage: it was their not on purpoise
<MuthSera>: Cyberpunk soft shell crabs lacks the same emotional pull.
<The_Luggage>: maybe it doesn't have the same emotional pull, but now i want to see a picture of that
<MuthSera>: Man. This is a well written SCP
<MuthSera>: Crap. :c
<LordStonefish>: MuthSera: listen, I consider this a challenge. Try to canonweld
*** drblackbox is now known as drafkbox
<LordStonefish>: as it is, you already have a base you can connect your skip to, that’s lucky
<LordStonefish>: maybe the two empire are at war!
The_Luggage is still down for writing this if you go with it which you totally should
<MuthSera>: LordStoneFish: Mine sounds like a more advanced state.. since this skip ends in a declaration of war.
<MuthSera>: Like.. this declaration, +15 years
<MuthSera>: It's gone from a minor issue to a true potential K-ish scenario
<MuthSera>: dominance shift.
<The_Luggage>: yeah, that sounds super cool
<MuthSera>: The dolphins surround and seek to contain us.. the way we might sit around a lake and try to stop walking fish from escaping..
<MuthSera>: Keep us on the land.
<The_Luggage>: if there is already a dolphin nation, there could be another, a slightly more warlike or xenophobic nation
<MuthSera>: and possibly away from the shore.s
<MuthSera>: OK.
<MuthSera>: What does a dolphin WMD look like?
<LordStonefish>: Squidbomb
<MuthSera>: Does it force all humans in a wide area that can hear a song to walk towards the ocean and drown themselves?
<LordStonefish>: yes
<MuthSera>: IE: Imagine if we could do the same. A song that forces dolphins to beach themselves.
<MuthSera>: We would use the shit out of that.
