SCP-5012 │ No Escape From The Bottomless Pit │ Euclid │ Auditory/Biological SCP

Hello! - My voice sounds rough in this one. I can only apologise. I'm having a bit of a hard time diagnosing what's wrong with my vocal chords and how to fix it (It's also the reason that I've found it hard to make longer videos this year.). They are always covered in mucus and the more I clear my throat the worse it gets. I'm trying to get a doctors appointment to try and get some medication help along with cutting out spicing food, caffeine and dairy from my diet. As always, thank you all for your patience.

"Shouldn't we call the Foundation?" "Oh yeah, I called the Foundation." "Well, where are they?" "...In the Hole."

SCP always throws you a curveball. You come in expecting a fun, simple tale about a bottomless pit, and you end up with hallucinogenic cherries and obscure musicians.

Shorthand: Cherries that make you hallucinate about music and dancing, inspiring many into writing of their experiences. Longform: Mental teleportation to parallel world, as expressed through song, dance and setpieces. One researcher went in too deep, and this may be more dangerous than it seems, as these pits have no bottoms.

A cautionary tale for co-workers not to eat things they find in the office fridge that do not belong to them..

Volgun is such a godsend for the whole scp community

Yeah... definitely going to need an "Extra Credit" for this one.

I don't know if it's the way this is written but I find this really hard to follow. Something about an orchard, then cherries and hallucinations, something about a memorial orchestra, it just feels all over the place and I have no idea what's going on or what the SCP even is.

So, this is kinda like C.S. Lewis' The Magicians Nephew in terms of world hopping, then? Instead of pools of water, we have musicians that somehow suddenly connect worlds together; in our world they appear at trees bearing cherries. To eat these cherries is to be given visions and hallucinations of the worlds connected to by the musician they came from, and to eat of the musician is to be teleported to that world. (The good doctor's disappearance is caused by his eating of jam from a violinist/fiddler tree.) The problem is those alternate worlds are fundamentally unharmonious with our natures built in this reality, described here as a fiddle, a trumpet, or another prevailing instrument that restricts or contorts the doctor's nature. He finds some relief eating cherries and having literal trips to other worlds, but he only finds long-lasting satisfaction by eating the musicians and teleporting completely. (He's presumably not the first to do this, since the musicians are described as animal-mangled.) Since the musicians are spread among multiple trees in our world, this seems to be the case elsewhere (the reason why he doesn't know where he'll end up until he's learns to recognize the musicians he's about to eat). He only finally arrives home after eating the cellist, who is missing from our grove but present everywhere else (presumably each musician is missing from the world they link to from others). That's because our world is the one that resonates with the cello and is connected to from other realities by the cellist - the doctor only notices the cello integrated into our existence after being in every other musical world and returning to ours.

6:02 you see, this is what happens when you don't label what you put in the fridge someone will eat it thinking it's normal jam and get erased from existence.

This is basically a real, bad DMT trip

Everything is fine and dandy, until someone decides to use the anomalously-sourced fruit jelly in the Site's cafeteria!

this really is a 5000 series in every way

Can't believe they used my marriage with my ex-wife as an SCP title.

"Fifty-twelve" sounds like someone doesn't know how to say sixty-two.

Title of this SCP describes my current financial situation.

Something about these readings. I love em but I often space out. And I have to start the video over. Cuz if I miss anything it’s like I know nothing 😭

“Woah. Whatever that was it’s gone for good.”

Bottomless Pit is a great Death Grips album
