SCP Foundation

Not… bad.

Does he move between blips? How do we know he is 35?

What does he do from 21 seconds to 28 seconds?

EDIT: Oh man, I forgot to tell you why I love this.

It stems from that phone number not being used yet. Combined with the fact that there's already temporal fuckery going on, it's reasonable to suppose that this loop started in the future. Which means that, at some point, he's probably going to cause an actual nuclear explosion. At a Foundation site.

Does that make sense at all, or am I missing some obvious thing?

I like the idea. I'm upvoting based on the idea. Parts of the execution are a little weird, though. The containment procedures are really specific, maybe more so than is necessary. Your next-to-last line has a spot of "redacting multiple sentences to change tone suddenly", a thing I hate (though you wouldn't be the only person here doing that). And the last sentence, the crosslink, is a wee unnecessary.

But upvote.

The idea is very good, but in general, crosslinking SCPs is not a good idea. The radiation dose might be a bit low, also. The lethal dose of radiation at the Goiaina disaster in 1987 was 4000-6000 mSv, and people survived doses of 7000 mSv.

Upvoted.

Couple things:

If SCP-1033 attempts an escape, all efforts are to be made to stop it to prevent massive radiation contamination.

This seems superfluous, as of course the Foundation is going to try and keep him from escaping, regardless of the reason why.

Interviews with witnesses found that people in the area experienced a vision-encompassing white flash, accompanied by a two-second burst of static from an unknown source.

I'm a little unclear on this. Are they hearing a noise like static from a TV or radio just in the air? Or are radios in the area suddenly playing static? It could maybe use some clarification.

Other than that, I like this.

I advise adding a few seconds to each stage here. 30 paces in 10 seconds isn't really walking….typing and sending that message in 6 seconds is really fast. You could basically extend his cycle to a full minute without it feeling lengthy.

That said, I love this. Upvoted.

*edit* try it….try walking at a pace of 3 steps every second, checking your wrist every 10 steps….i just did, that was crazy :P

basically i suggest taking everything that you're having him do and go through the motions, recording yourself doing it. time yourself, and find out how long it really should take for each section, and then use that.

You cannot know the megatonage of a device from the radiation unless you know the distance.

Okay, you can estimate it based on the time from when he sends the message to when he starts to lose bits of flesh… Assuming he's the one that sets it off!

Personally, I'd put a D-Class (in a rad suit) next to the guy and steal his phone and the envelope…

For some reason, I feel like he should say 'Are we cool yet?" instead of chuckling. Other then that, awesome.

The idea is okay, but a couple of things in the description don't ring true scientifically.

"SCP-1033 was emitting well over the lethal limit of radiation, approximately 15,000 mSv"

Sieverts are a measure of the total radiation dose received by a subject over a period of time, whereas this sentence seems to be talking about the rate of radiation emission by the source itself. That would be measured in curies or becquerels. Also it makes no sense to talk about whether a source of radiation is lethal or not, as that depends entirely on distance and length of exposure.

"The injuries SCP-1033 sustains correspond with that of a victim of a 1.5 megaton nuclear device being detonated."

This makes no sense either, as the effect would depend tremendously on how far away the subject was from the centre of the blast, and there doesn't seem to be a way of estimating that from the information available.

Part of the containment procedures needs to be the Foundation registering and maintaining control of that phone number.
