Remember when the dimension hopper was in hysterics and tried to kill himself, because he went to a world that was better in every way?
I think he went here or maybe somewhere even better. Either it was heartbreak if it here or perhaps an anomalous effect if it was somewhere else
Healthcare plz
I'd kill myself if I ever left a dream come true utopía

"It also mentions the abundance of paper dragons in the library."

*Meanwhile in another SCP entry, the Administrator won a bar fight against the physical embodiment of Entropy at the end of time*
He fought entropy in the most literal sense and WON
This is beautiful. I've looked at this for 5 hours now.
Bruh
@@keruthol8089 And i think restarted time and space?
Which SCP entry is it?
This SCP is basically:
"Hard-to-Defeat Reptile? Extinction of Dragons? What are you talking about? Hurry up, I can't wait to keep watching the beautiful statue"
David: Never thought I would spend a whole day with a talking cat
Primrose: how about spending a whole day with a friend?
David: ......aye.... I could do that

"we asked why and they said we were no longer disgusting" fucking wowww man, making 682 disgusted at the way life treats itself is my fav headcanon i think.
IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE
WE'RE DISGUSTING FOR REAL
@@MoxyFoxtrot I’m honestly confused here. How does it make sense?
it kinda just sounds like nonsense to me. then again given how its reason is never specified, any headcanon really fits. it just feels dismissive and just a lazy way around the obvious issues of such an entity existing. hell I am more curious about shit like the Old AI
Honestly man as soon as I heard that I cried a little
@@undeadprinceofchaos3731 682 is known for being destructive and having a hatred of life while being immortal. This can be interpreted with different meanings and metaphors depending on canon or personal belief. But I believe in this canon that 682 represents humanity. And since humanity had created a utopia that a reluctant dimension hopper had described as "Perfect in every way", you could say that humanity was no longer disgusting.
Orb: *something completely incomprehensible to any mere mortal*
David: "this guy gets it"
It's actually written in the wing-dings font
it said "T︎h︎i︎s︎ c︎o︎n︎v︎e︎r︎s︎a︎t︎i︎o︎n︎ i︎s︎ p︎o︎i︎n︎t︎l︎e︎s︎s︎ a︎n︎d︎ I︎ h︎a︎t︎e︎ a︎r︎c︎h︎i︎v︎i︎n︎g︎ i︎t︎.︎"

This genre of storytelling is called solarpunk, btw. It's a direct response to the dystopian cyberpunk and apocalyptic dieselpunk, presenting a brighter vision of the future, one where people learn to listen to empathy.
Cool to know 👍
Thank you for this information !
Something to remember.
Cool. When everyone becomes overly trusting empathetic lambs, those willing to act as wolves will feast on the weak.
See Demolition Man.
@@RealLifeIronMan wow, you must be a blast at parties
With music now? the budget has drastically increased.
There's always been music. It's just always been topic appropriate so low and menacing usually.
@@lorzon yea its probably cuz i listen to his videos without headphones on while doing other things, probably didnt notice it.
@@PadecMaybeReal why do phone speakers and/or videos do that?

I can see why you’d miss the music before it fits in so well with the atmosphere that it just disappears, exploring series really is something aren’t they
I love how Primrose explains that SCP-173 originally wasn’t waiting for us to look away, just hitting a pose for our viewing pleasure 🤣
What a beautiful statue
*SNAP*
I like how it *could* be implying that we corrupted it somehow. Now it's like "oh, you don't want to look at me? I'll make sure you never look at anything else ever again."
It goes back to that bit about "are we rougher around the edges than them because our world is harsher or is our world harsher because of us?".
Haha lucky world.
I believe it was contained originally after killing innocents, but I can't remember.
Within the narrative, I am sure a butterfly effect is to blame, one of the things Primrose muse.
@@warriorscholar41 we were molded by constant attacks from tigers, lions, from the explosions of volcanoes and earthquakes and asteroids. We evolved as the apex predator to defeat all that could hurt us. We're rougher and tougher than everyone else bc we had to and have to be to survive. So to answer the question, the world was rough, and we evolved to be rougher than it so we could thrive in it.
That's the difference between humanity and the animals, we can thrive in this world, they can just survive. They can't do anything if an asteroids about to hit, we can destroy it and enjoy the meteor shower from our telescopes.
@@oracle8192 Your comment makes me wonder if the author of this SCP was in part inspired by the concept of the Great Filter. In case you are unaware, the Great Filter is what arose from us asking "where is all the other sentient life?" Either we are one of the only few species that have survived some great trial or we have yet to pass said trial and the really intelligent species aren't bothering with us until we prove ourselves.
The actual anomaly, the microscopic portal, is a literal filter that keeps us apart from that world, and it won't be until we evolve past the apex murder machines we had to become, until we can realize that we don't have to be that anymore, that we can cross the filter.
This is like a lullaby for adults. Peace of a practical and existential variety. A utopia with a clear path. No anxiety. No stress. I needed this.
One's utopia is another one's dystopia.
@zee Star trek universe? Humanity's ever growing desire for knowledge, and probably more
@user-kv8uj1sg1f Just because there are much fewer obligations in the 6001 universe doesn't mean there's no meaning. Your motivation doesn't have to be survival or the elimination of stress, it could be joy. It could be the satisfaction of a job well done. It could be the fuzzy feeling you get from helping another person out. It could be the calmness that comes from building something with your hands. It could be intellectual curiosity.
To say that the stress is the only true motivator is a defeatist idea. Your motivation shouldn't be to minimize suffering, it should be to maximize happiness.
@zee stress is not at all required for motivation and is often a key factor in unmotivating people.
Motivation sans stress is driven by pure human desire and I assure you utopia or dystopia that can never truly be extinguished.
@zee if stress is the only thing that motivates you, maybe talk to someone, dude.
"...a world where everything turned out alright." I honestly teared up at that. I just want everything to turn out alright for us all
Solidarity my friend. Solidarity.
Me too.
It will be if it's meant to, we will see it through if we choose to.
It will only be so if we make it, but I have that we will choose the right path.

(The inevitable video)
The day he makes a gamers against weed video will also be the first day I don't watch one of his videos.
@@Aherea why
I know eventually he’ll have to cover them in a video someday
@@camerondiflo3828 Because GAW is annoying. It's a bunch of internet culture and memes wrapped up in a costume to make it look like an interesting GOI. But it's unoriginal and derivative. People like it because they think the characters are "relatable," but I don't want to read about a bunch of kids being idiots on the internet.
They're basically a derivative version of Are We Cool Yet, but written by people who grew up on the internet.
"It couldn't *just* be a concrete killing machine"
That line makes me tear up everytime.
"The abundance of paper dragons in the library."
I'm gonna cry.
an entire movie played in my head while listening to this. masterful.
You’re not the only one. In fact I honestly now would love to see this made into an actual film
I didn’t realize until I read your comment. I envisioned most of the entire story in my head. Places, settings, and characters came to life for me and I didn’t really think much of it until reading through the comments.
@@Drunklotus I know this is influenced by the art in here, but Studio Ghibli would make this beautiful! With all the fantastical descriptions of all the creatures and buildings I feel like they could really do this story justice.
@@BuckysKnifeFlip funny thing is. I listened to this at work, so I wasn’t watching my screen at all. The author does a good job being descriptive. But yes, Ghibli could absolutely knock this out of the park if they were to try and make a film out of this
Me too :,)
Now I want to see a Studio Ghibli film based on the SCP Foundation…
Too much power can’t be possible they’d need to make an actual foundation for it
I want one for the Compendium.....
Especially one that revolves around this universe and how life is like with all the different anomalies now a part of every day life
I think we just did...
mid
This SCP is simultaneously beautiful and depressing. Its just amazing to hear about an alternate world where humanity pulled itself together to create a future thats better for everyone, including anomalies and other species. And yet, its so sad to see it go away like that, now becoming a goal that even they aren't even sure is possible to reach. It really makes you wonder what the foundation is fighting for and if they really could change the very way they work to better benefit humanity. Honestly this SCP made me tear up with its ending, really well made and poetic
Incidentally I live on the coast of Peru, do you want to know what I see?
I see a polluted sea, I see people living barely at minimum wage in an overpopulated coastal city filled with rubbish and smog, I see incompetents and criminals elected for the government, I see hideous news with death, scams and abuse every day.
I literally cried when I thought of the difference between one reality and another.
@@commandermcnash5137 Aquí el lugar ideal es Estados unidos
@@Beetlebum55 Living in the US, I promise you it is not utopia here either.
It's definitely better in many ways than Peru, but there are a lot of things that are still horrible.
It's fine as a story, but it's a little preachy. The finger wagging and statements that humans are too paranoid and should just trust everyone and every entity. Then we would all live in a perfect utopia. But if the Scarlet King showed up to destroy their universe, they would eat their own words.
I started crying like 5 minutes in and still am 35 minutes in
Fun fact: This anomaly was created to be the anthesis of SCP-5000. The writer even admitted that in response to SCP-5000’s premise of the Foundation declaring war on all of humanity, SCP-6001 was written as a way to answer the opposite question, “What if the Foundation declared peace?”
SCP-6001: Why Not?
Are you even allowed to admit you make SCPs in response to other SCPs in a respect-obsessed website like that?
@@jakespacepiratee3740 That's just being idiotic. I won't even explain why. Try to understand it yourself. Well, respect doesn't mean what you think it does.
@@jakespacepiratee3740 if it's well liked enough
TES states that at the beginning.
"Asking a chair to move a couch would be deeply insensitive" this whole article is wonderful.
yeah that sentence has very Douglas Adams vibes
Assuming the chair is sentient and sapient, then yes.
@@MrTigracho Which it is; that's how they know it likes being useful, and likes being a chair. 🙂
“The soup was sublime, although a bit heavy on the garlic.”
MY BOI SCP-5031 LETS GOOOOOO
He's living the dream, hope he gets paid in rotisserie chickens.
THE MURDER MONSTER CHEF
HOLY SHIT I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE THAT UNTIL YOU MENTIONED IT WHAT
Haha this comment lead me to first read this SCP! Not disappointed!
I hadn't read that one yet and now I'm crying. I love these kind of SCP entries.
47:49
It’s 5031, living it’s best life!
Honestly, the story of 5031 feels like one of the closest stories in the SCP world to this one. It started off incredibly violent, deadly, and dangerous, but that was just because it was scared and stressed. When it was given love and care, it became happy, friendly, and an excellent chef.
Love it when David says the soup was a bit heavy on the garlic too, cool lil reference to 5031s article where it freaks out after it runs out of garlic powder haha
oh my god I thought I knew what it was talking about!!!!! 5031 is one of my favorite SCPs I’ve read, I’m so glad it has its own restaurant and is happy 🥺😭 no more tossing bowling balls around. I wonder if he still plays piano!
A comment from the channel skittensays has brought me here after learning 5031 makes an appearance during this scp
Legit the first SCP article to make me cry, it got me good. The wholesomeness was too much for me to handle!
That article deserves every last upvote!
It is beautiful. It’s despair reflecting hope. It’s when selflessness of the whole benefits the self most. What a wonder to aspire towards.
I've listened to this video about a dozen times and it's honestly my favorite story so far and I finally know why. The alternate universe never claimed to be a "perfect world" only a "better" one. It still has problems and obstacles it has to overcome, Dr. Primrose even says as much. The significant difference is that the whole world collectively came together to solve those problems for the benefit of everyone. We don't need a perfect world, we need to give everyone a place in the solution in a flawed one.
That's fucking beautiful. I like that, keep that attitude.
👏👏👏👏👏👏
My heart warms with the message

This scp feels like a series final to the SCP Foundation. Specfically in how it's full of throw backs to other scps, but they're all in a better place than they were when you first read about them. It's like how some kid's adventure cartoons will bring back a bunch of one off characters in the last few episodes, but a lot of them are happier and better adjusted because the main characters redeemed them.
It's almost like it's a shitty fanfiction.
@@monandoboi7360 Someone's mad
@@monandoboi7360 Maybe you should take the lesson of this article and lighten up and be optimistic for a change.
Jesus. The ending there with the beautiful art of the cat-I cried for a solid while, hugging mine. That was a beautiful story and well narrated.
Out of all the horrid stories from the SCP universe, this one gave me the most post-story depression. Thinking about what could be or could've been has always been my biggest vulnerability.
Things will get better, its not over yet. :)
This entry isn't nearly as bad as the dragons, now those don't have happy endings and break your heart.

I just read this comment when she said those words! Why?!
Just when I thought they couldn’t make this article more emotionally hitting
Spoken like a servant of the Broken God… 🧐
>Lie down
>Try not to cry
>Cry a lot
This is by far the most beautiful SCP entry i’ve listened to, it is also the saddest. I genuinely shed a tear when primrose simply answered “he was a nerd” thats how real friends mourn. Not to mention when she said she just wanted another day with her friend. Aside from all the feels stuffs, i think this is the most descriptive fictional world i’ve heard so far without all the scp anomalous memeplex mumbo jumbo. It was just a wonderfully crafted world. I think i’ll give this another listen
hope is such a strange bittersweet feeling to get from an SCP document I'm literally about to cry
I like how the cats like “don’t say that around canines” but then calls us monkeys😂

@@jonahnesmith7004 no it shouldn't. Either make fun of everyone or no one at all.
Has anyone else noticed that the name this alternate reality gives to our universe, A6K, is a reference to the act that this was an SCP-6000 contest entry?
Sometimes things are just in the front of our nose....
Well spotted 😅
Damn, was enjoying the story so much that A6K just sounded pleasant and felt RIGHT. If that makes any sense.
Wait. What's the A and K about ?
@@skaynne54 don't know if the A has any specific meaning, maybe it's just a random pick by the author... But 6k is a away to denote 6000, as K is the abbreviation of Kilo, or a thousand in SI (The International System of Units)
@@viniizero or it’s “a 6k”
I'm not going to lie, despite being pure Noblebright with no dark secret or twist ending, 6001 still really manages to add to the Grimdark of the SCP cannon for me, as a glimpse of what could have been, only around long enough to highlight how screwed our reality is before it's snatched away.
Its nobel bright gleam makes our shadows all the darker.
I argue it is more a matter of if circumstances were different. Things like the factory and "bigfoot" are extremely dangerous and hostile for reasons we arent quite sure. Bigfoot to the fairies and the factory was using sacrifices and blood rituals to make anomalies.
It's a horror tale in its own way. The humans in that universe are doomed to atrophy from laziness and turn into WALL-E humans. When a single hostile entity enters their universe, like the Scarlet King, they will be unprepared and be wiped from existence.
Comfort and prosperity are at best temporary pleasures that can not be allowed to remain permanently in any society lest its members become complacent and unable to handle unforeseeable challenges. When the human race ends, it will be because evolution has atrophied our brains from becoming rarely needed.

Foundation: Who are you?
Compendium: I am you, but lighthearted
well I'm you but not in the violating all the geneva conventions
@@thoughtexperimentsotherstu4680 Yes, I do agree, the Compendium is likely gonna experience XK class scenario pretty soon.
Remember, the foundation is only around 200 years old, wayyy too short of a time to truly realise all the anomalies _even_ if the world was behind them.
Which means they have possibly been utilising various anomalies that may, in the long run, cause quite some issues.
And to create utopia, you first need to change how the entirety of humanity thinks and operates on the fundamental level, which does also mean they have been using cognito hazards to change people's mind to their way of thinking.
Aka. This is a horror story from my perspective of this.

Beautiful
Flashing back to Hayao Miyazaki. This is how he'd show the Foundation, I'm sure of it. I also teared up quite a bit at the end. I also loved the reverence with which they treated the statue. The picture the article was based on was actually an art installation. So it's only right that the Statue get pride of place in an art museum. But I loved how so many of the old scps got a new spin, a chance at happiness. I'm curious where Dr. Bright is in all of this, but if Abel isn't violent I doubt Bright's in the pendant. The sapient cephalopods and the telepathic spider were two anomalies I was so happy to see. The dragons were a shoe in, but it seems I'm not the only one who remembers the telepathic spider and scheming ole Levi.
Pretty sure that some of this music is from his film soundtracks
This article deserved the 6000 spot, honestly. Perfectly written and far more heartbreaking, emotionally affecting than any other SCP piece I can remember.
I like to believe somewhere, Lord Blackwood is in this universe as a Sea Slug 😎
I cant tell if you like him or not
I just want to see my man Blackwood given back his full body and memory. If ever there would be a worthy and fitted ambassador for our world to theirs, Lord T. T. Blackwood is that person. His respect, wonder, passion, and humility are the greatest of humanity and as long as people like him are around, there's hope yet.
@@XSpamDragonX oh I love him but the Sea Slug thing makes me laugh 😂
That man is so full of soul and exploratory vigour, I wouldn't be surprised if he was a changeling that could transform back and just marvel at the worlds phenoms
@@AJScraps I love that bit of the story. This implies another adventure he had, that resulted in his current predicament, that we can't yet read, because it is still ongoing and he doesn't really have hands to write it down with.
I thought Ouroboros was the best crossover SCP story. This takes that cake... and turns it into a friggin bakery.
This one really suffers from obnoxious convenience and coincidence. It’s like they just went down a list of popular SCPs and said “HEY LOOK ITS THE THING, DONT THINK ABOUT IT”. It’s peak of lazy fan fiction writing.
A good crossover has tact when it comes to bridging stuff together.
I think it’s most obnoxious in how there were literally no new or unknown SCPs, like he just happened to only bump into or hear about all the big names.
@@gummyboots Although I understand where you're coming from, this scp is supposed to be an optimistic view of the scp world. Think of it as a fairy tale that's just a fun look into an alternate universe. The amount of scps mentioned in the article is just a way of showing, individually, how each anomaly can be used for the betterment of everyone or at least be less terrifying.
An anomalous bakery that can instantly make your favorite food perfectly.

I love the SCP universe for it's horror and wouldn't want all the SCPs and stories to be this positive (hell, this one wouldn't even work in that case), but such a unique gem like this really enriches the whole SCP universe for me.
Just out of reach..
For me anyways, this one kind of completes the whole SCP universe as a story. It takes it from being a world pretty much doomed by a multitude of ever increasing threats, to one of hope where maybe one day the job will be done, and humanity can just live.
"It also mentions the abundance of paper dragons in the library and having to move Cassie and her sisters between shelves"
Oh baby, Cassie, the dragons, the teleporting chair and more got happy endings in this universe! It's nice to see articles like this. Just a feel good or happy stories, a nice break from the usual doom and gloom
Even some of the more vicious and deadly SCPs got a happy ending. EVEN FREAKING 682!!!
Imagine the first person asking a chair to move a couch learn the hard way.
And cassie learning not to jump between books blindly especially the 18+ "mature" books. Especially "adult cartoons".
OMG the dragon in the cave in Italy must be alive too and flying some were
Exactly, like a previous commenter said "EVEN FREAKING 682!!!" and I add EVEN THE (Formerly KILLER) PEANUT (SCP-173)!!!
Why did they have to bring the fucking chair
“How do you feel about Paris?”
“I’m sure there are some nice gentlemen there, according to our worlds Kanye west”

I hope the last SCP ever added to the wiki is a retread of this one. Personally I would call it SCP Infinity: Unity
dang thats good
that's if there is a final SCP
@@mr.midnight3581 one day there will be a final SCP, whether it be becouse there's no one willing to write more or becouse there's no one left to write or even nowhere left to write, but eventually everything has to come to an end
@@zalanmarkus4939 that's not entirely true I mean we have no idea what happens when everything ends, I mean for all we know the ending is just the start of another longer story in a long line of stories that have been going on and on and who knows where it started to begin with
@@Fallen_Family welcome the pataphysical "big bang." If narrative entropy exists, it's when there's nowhere left to go in a story. When one story ends, but the creativity and curiosity to explore remain than a new world can begin.

Primrose: Because I wanted just one more day with my best friend, okay!?

Sad
called it
Haha, same, and I'm sad I din't get to share it with anyone as nobody I know would ever bother to listen to it, moreso immerse themselves enough to feel for it. But I'm happy to see so many others I don't know enjoying it though.
And it's a cat saying that... damn
That part hit in the big feels.
remember when scps were weird containment procedures for even weirder things?
now we get audiobooks on alternate earths
im not mad about it
but i DO miss the old days
I hope the guy that wrote 173 sees vids like this and is proud of the universe and movement he created by accident
That's a downfall
@@yoggothemadgod6196 only to the shortsighted
world building amirite
@@yoggothemadgod6196 depends on perspective. To each their own. But IMO , these entries should be mixed with normal scps. I don’t want the scp entries to stray too far from its original course, but occasionally, these entries are quite nice.
This SCP’s whole theme of “fitting” somewhere really reminds me of the Wayward Children series (a series about children who are summoned by worlds in which they fit best), especially the parts about some people just fitting better in other worlds.
I really, really needed this today. I'd like to think that after all of that, after everything he'd seen, David would try to work behind the scenes to try to influence our reality to become the one he saw. And maybe, just maybe, he finds a cat one day and names her Primrose after his best friend from another world.
I would immediately get the anecdote out of the bag to the highest people I have contact with (considering David sent the mail to my self-insert), and see if it inspires them as it did to me.
My idea: inspired by David's testimony of SCP-6001 and O5-3's sense of ethics, the O5 Council and EC invite over the Global Occult Coalition and Manna Charitable Foundation to offer peace.
>The Special Containment Procedures Foundation will keep containing anomalies that won't contribute to the world or are dangerous.
>The Global Occult Coalition however, will destroy those if it's possible and won't result in a different threat.
>The Manna Charitable Foundation will normalise helpful anomalies to improve the world. Their first gift from the O5? Access to SCP-006 and 107. They make it rain health across many places, which is a fantastic start.
The best ending in a nutshell
Also the strange absence of a Sarkic Cults and Daevites parallel does give an interesting perspective on what differs
They might of either died out, found a proper way to fit in, or simply didn’t exist at all.
Edit: wanted to mention that I think they probably got folded together into that Red Hand Organization that was mentioned along with the Children of the Scarlet King.
My headcanon is that they were the "rough edges" the peace keepers had to deal with. It's not like you can happily compromise with the slaver bloody expansive empire or the inhuman fleshy monsters that worship disease
I figured that at least some Sarkic groups simply refused to participate in the Copendium's society and continue to exist in their own little corners of the world.
The Proto-Sarkics (who are peaceful but isolationist, even in the regular SCP universe) probably still live in their remote Eastern European villages, far away from the rest of the world.
@@wasserruebenvergilbungsvirus yeah, they're probably like that one village that gives blood and organ donations. They probably also supply food to any entities that rely upon human flesh exclusively for sustenance as a form of alternative to the genuine article. If not either of those, they're likely just chilling on there own, being their isolationist selves. Maybe some weird stuff goes on but nothing compared to the other universes. Heck maybe they helped with some of the advancements in the Avalon Universe.
The Exploring Series is a gift to us. I didn't think I would ever see a video on this skip!
I think the only skip this channel cant explain is 5251, seriously how do you explain that anomaly without a prior reading? The video can't be a reading vid
TES is the Avalon 👌
I feel the things that david felt. Jealousy and anticipation of the something bad happening, because that's just the SCP foundation. It never happened and I felt myself grow (In the sense of SCPs). I will never look at SCPs in the same way.
My professor in college once said that, according to his beliefs, the departed don't suffer in hell because they are burned and tortured. They suffer in hell because upon dying, they got a glimpse of what heaven is like. And that they will forever suffer a great longing of wanting to be in heaven.
I am not a religious person but this SCP reminded me of what my professor said.
The paper dragons and having to hold back 999 from helping the baseline reality??? I love this story, it’s been a while since an SCP has made me this happy 🥺🥺🥺
The theme was nature. This is an excellent entry, as it feels like a look into a softer world and how all it takes is a different mindset.
The Foundation lives in Fear. The Compendium basks in acceptance.
I want to make a world the Compendium would contact.
Who's with me?
The Compendium also have an army of 682 instances in perfect health, and even they don't know when or why they stopped being hostile towards every living thing.
I'ma give that a hard N O
@@antitheist3206 it's implied that because the compendium is accepting and cooperative with anomalies, they're accepted by the immortigons, as one said "you are no longer disgusting".
Seeing as the compendium has literally no reason to change their mindset, the immortigons are a non isssue
@@pyther5019
But the Immortigons are.
We aren't the Compendium, and we don't know what about them made humanity "not disgusting" to them.
@@antitheist3206 i see them as a reflection of humanity, our worst aspects as a species. In A6K they're violent tirading, domineering monsters, because that's what we are. In the compendium universe, where humanity is much less violent, so are the immortigons, now reduced to mostly passive gentle giants
This was tragedy by contrast. A unique and brutal sense of melancholy. Thanks for this
That mention of the unwilling teleportation guy broke my heart. It’s very in character for scp cruelty, but DAMN.
Cat: Don't say the k-word
Caspian: I'm gonna do it
Cat: No! You can't say it!
Caspian: KITTY
🅱️ *ITTY*
They use kitta amongst themselves
This one is beautiful. In a universe of despair, avarice, and violence. There needed to be an opposite version, one so beautifully done that it could spawn its own collection of stories.
I hope they make more stories from this universe
This scp makes me both sad and happy, in a weird way, happy that story like this was put to paper in the same group of stories which are always really dark, disturbing or horrifying, it allows it to evoke a much stronger feeling, but i am also sad, that something like this just doesn’t seem possible in reality. I can only hope that one day we can achieve some sense of unity. Thats the kind of response a story like this got from me
I loved the studio ghibli iconography and music in the background, a very peaceful and enjoyable SCP adventure. Thank you!
Im sitting here crying. It hurts so much hearing this reality knowing the one we live in and the one the scp-universe lives in. I don't know. I just feel so much right now.
Of all the SCP videos I've listened to here, this was honestly my favorite. Such a sweet journey and far from the norm!
Oh hey it's Lathland. Neat seeing you around here. Used to watch your From the Depths videos a bunch years ago. Looks like your channel is growing! Glad to see.
Did not expect too see lathrix here.
I miss Fl’ank
Hello lathland
The greatest crossover event in history
This is quickly turning into my favorite scp story. It's wholesome AF.
This is honestly one of the most interesting SCPs, rather than death machines or scary phenomenons , it's happy and utopic
it still hits you just in a different way than any one of the eldritch horrors or unapologetically philosophical novella length tales or articles idk how to put it but im gonna be thinking about this one for weeks
Anyone else ever go “man I wish he uploaded” then within the hour he does? Cos this is the third time in a row

The most uplifting SCP exploration yet.
life is strange, this just makes me sad.
@@deannasmith4443 this made me seriously Uncomfortable, just the similarity to Communism just causes so much dread.
@DEEPFOXJUDE Well My Parents and Grand parents told me tons of stories of there life’s in the Ussr, and just the Similarity to the Bolsheviks and seeing it work. Just seems so Wrong and a tragedy waiting to happen.
@Micheal KO for communism to work the people in power need to be Morally perfect, Would you spend trillions of dollars every year spending money on everyone, Racists, homeless people, Nazis and disabled people giving them decent enough luxury.
It always ends up with one small group being exterminated then bigger and bigger and we end up with the Ussr Exterminating people by the Quota.
Maybe for a while it could work, but someone will eventually screw it over with his own Hatred or Greed it will always end up into a Dystopia, And quicker then most other form of government for finding such a great person to replace a great person before.
Sorry If I sound to Aggressive
Sorry This is probably a thing I shouldn’t have responded too, Sorry for Wasting your time or whatever else I probably screwed over.
This should become another thing. Like how SCP became legit after the SCP-173 creepypasta, this alt-SCP-foundation-compendium could become a legit thing too.
I want to start writing for the Compendium.
I am not sure what version is more creepy.
Man, this one made me cry, this is a book, whoever wrote this article deserves to be a author, wow, it's so good.
Not gonna lie, I was waiting for David to get outed as a furry the entire time
*SCP 953 Wants to : Know your location*
Im dead
She's a doctor 🥼🐈🐱
She is an animal not a furry herself
@@EspeonMistress00 Yeah you're right. Beastiality is way better.
Often in a world filled with horrors and darkness, you believe that there truly is no way to keep the world safe. But if one tries hard enough and keeps looking into the light, you may find the means to achieve unity…and peace
I love how in this world things didn’t magically get better humanity just got their shit together, it took work and sacrifice and compromise
This video was so wholesome and sweet it cured my depression, gave me type 3 diabetes, improved my eyesight and fixed some longstanding childhood trauma I didn't even know I had. As a simple guy from Eastern Europe I say "Bravo TES, bravo my friend".
The "person" being referenced when David says he knows someone who can keep a secret? That has to be his own cat, Primrose.
Would be the only thing that made sense to me.
According to the author, it’s actually referring to *you*, the reader
Its the reader.
I thought the same to be honest
It's YOU! Or Mangg. Or me or us 😊
I'm not even in 8 minutes and I'm crying! The idea of 1762 not only being alive, but thriving, it makes my heart weep with joy.
I think the beauty behind the story of all the great, wholesome utopia, is a tale of a cat who wants to see her deceased friend, even if it was not her friend, one last day.
That is strikingly beautiful.
47:50 5031 now makes the world's best Ramen. Nice.
Normal reality:
Horror action.
6001 reality:
Slice of life.
You deserve a break after this one! It's funny that two of the best scps imo are polar opposites. 5000/6001. Thanks again for all that you do for us ✊
They DEFINITELY would have been opposites if this article won the 6000 contest
I actually didn’t like the 6000 contest winner because it lacked the same wonder of a typical article that the exploring series would cover, which to me really makes an SCP article. This to me is amazing then, since even though most of the strife of the SCP universe is absent in 6001, the article still manages to preserve that familiar sense of wonder in all the articles that I think most of us can agree are some of the best articles on the site. This would have made a great -000 entry.

Such a sweet story, and I loved how you delivered it.
Was about to question how you watched all of it in two minutes
He always delivers
Its still so surreal to me that there's this weird overlap between my music production UA-cam and my SCP UA-cam lol
Especially with the choice of music. I swear I felt like I was about to cry at the end when David and Primrose had to say goodbye
He is good
For every grim dark scp there's always a very hopeful scp to put everything in a new light. Also no matter what universe the mosquitoes are still the worst.
It would be interested to see how "Avalon" would Interact with or view the SCP Foundation of the Broken Masquerade Timeline.
Or the palisade one
Or Doctors of the Church, or Unfounded.
There’s one small crossover tall from the bellerverse canon and 6001, it was cute
This heart warming SCP brought me to tears.
I damn near cried too.
Honestly expected more comments admitting this lol. I couldnt even help myself by the very end - easily my new favorite SCP
I read it a few minutes ago.
I cried.
Right up until the very end I was waiting for the bad news about 6001, it wouldn't be a SCP without something going wrong, right? Anyway, in times as hard as they have been, it is nice to hear about a SCP with an optimistic tone.
Something did go wrong. Primrose had to say goodbye to caspian one more time
@@voxpop9 I almost cried at that part. The fact that she was saying goodbye to a friend she already lost and most likely will never see again is a real tear jerker. Especially with the music
@@undeadprinceofchaos3731 ikr! i almost cried too
It's a sad tale, not because of something bad happening there, but because something wonderful isn't happening here.
I've listened to this so many times, and it always makes me cry. It just sounds so nice. I'm so tired of life being defined by suffering
Every couple of months i return to this video and cry my eyes out for an hour straight. It's both comforting and depressing at the same time.
