About this deal

I should add that that [FURTHER ACTION REDACTED] covers a lot of messy business. (Most of it was taken out in case the Fifth Church got their hands on the information—but I’m getting ahead of myself.) One such point is the full cooperation of the FCC and Ofcom in allowing us to kill broadcasts whenever we required. The favor we did them to make them owe us like that is beyond even my clearance. The good thing with this novel is that it made SCPs more known since I got this in my local comic shop in the mall and the art illustrated in this novel was beautiful I loved Iris and Dr. Bright shown in this anime art style! I hope if a new volume is to ever be published that they fix the problem with the characters and write stories on more fun SCPs rather than just all SAFE classes.

Instead, we got the daily life of what I suppose was a reader insert? The protagonist is described as a normal high school boy, but to be honest, with the name being redacted, I just changed the pronouns and pretended I was reading about a girl instead. The protagonist is basically spirited away to the SCP Foundation, is labeled SCP-105-C, having been discovered to be able to enter and leave photos. They become an important asset in researching past events, attract the attention of Dr. Bright, etc. It all feels very escapism and wish-fulfillment. I can respect that, because I think people are just afraid to be self-indulgent these days. The CMA monitors all national broadcasts, especially network television, for anomalies related to SCP-1425. Any such anomalies are to be removed from broadcast through one of several classified means. the protagonist is one of those blank slate vessels for the reader to project onto. he’s super uncompelling as a character and very difficult for me to sympathize with. theres no motivations for him or a semblance of a personality outside of being a generic, non-descript high school boy. like come on, i know the author is trying to make him average, but like average people have personalities. they have wants and desires. they’re not boring grey boxes, they’re funky colorful shapes!

Dialogue - I don't know if it was the translation or the author's writing but people just do not talk the way they do in the book. It is so awkward and unnatural. Especially Iris. It broke any sense of immersion I had.

The [REDACTED] publishing company is determined to be a front for the Fifth Church, and is seized. MTF Theta-11 “Wranglers”, MTF Gamma-4 “Money Lenders”, and MTF Lambda-21 “Cave-Dwellers” are sent to the Texas, Maine, and England printing facilities, respectively. All MTFs are met with armed resistance, and engage with no friendly casualties. Publication of SCP-1425 is ended. The publisher’s headquarters in [REDACTED], California is commandeered by MTF Phi-1 “Hostile Takeover”. Peppy: Really? Sorry, I got distracted, I guess. Kids, pay close attention. I’ll teach you how to make candles out of whoever you find lying around!theres chapters where i like yk? if it was just The Coffee Machine or Josie The Half-Cat where iris and the mc just do cute slice of life stuff at the foundation, it could’ve been nice! i might’ve even liked it a little. yes, it still would be disappointing since the scp wiki is more about horror and the paranormal with darker themes, but it would have just been a kinda alright read other than a waste of time.

Now imagine that the place where your desires are made real has a name. It’s called the Fifth World. The Fifth World is the cosmos twisted around you into the shape you will wish for. It has never been, but you can make it so. If the current world is like a tight, collared suit, then the Fifth World is like a flowing robe that allows complete freedom of movement. You will never truly move before you move in the Fifth World. You’ll feel like a square on a piece of paper who was only just tlaol [sic] about up and down.Character relationships and actions - The main character develops an attachment almost immediately. I don't know if this is supposed to indicate some sort of connection he has but it felt forced. He also doesn't give any thought or concern to his family until late in the story. For any normal person that would be their first thought if they have a normal life (as the main character does). He immediately assimilates into his new life and gives us no reason to sympathize or even care that he has been torn away from his family. A number of times he even says the people he meets at the SCP are his family. the writing is mediocre at best most times, but theres practically no character development! well, it’s not like any could be made in the first place because the main character doesn’t have any /character/ to him. I bought this book because I loved the stories of SCPs and what their existence could do to impact humanity. But this novel or book was pretty terrible. For one I did not like how they portrayed the characters (especially Iris/ SCP-105) they in a way kinda sexualized her or made her very naive or just made the character stupid. And the SCPs that were chosen to be written for this novel were boring, except one. The story also makes no sense. Dr. Bright is put on here too because he can choose and posses whatever body he wants. He chose to go with a Japanese woman because the main character was Japanese and I think he tried flirting with this kid. Every time they mentioned Dr Bright and their movement as a woman they would always mention breasts, legs, or the “pretty face” that they had. It was unnecessary. Even for as insane Dr. Bright is those parts didn’t have to be added especially when something serious or important is going on and when it cuts to Bright this is what I will be reading from the main character. And I don’t really like how Dr. Bright even tried to flirt with the main character or Iris they’re literally teenagers who would still be in high school. The amount of times I read Dr Bright trying to kiss or touch Iris or the main character was disturbing. Star Focus: Find your night spot and begin to focus on your star. [ Prologue, Section 3: “Star Focus Calendar”: “April ██: Epsilon Sagittarii. If you can’t find it in your star chart, it’s the base of the hunter’s bow and the brightest star in the constellation.”] As you stare up into it, use your mind-clearing word. Your meditation is: “████, ████. Now is our time. Here is our space. We take your star. We hold your bonds. Repay your debt. ████, ████, ████.” Don’t worry about memorization; any time you use your mind-clearing word, you’ll remember them, even if you only read them once. If you do it right, your star will disappear. You’ll feel it resonating with the others in your void.

If you’re learning of Event 1425 for the first time, the details reported here may come as a surprise. It’s a hard notion to swallow, even for a Foundation researcher, that we could cut three weeks of Western culture from memory and history. That doubt is justified.

This girl who plagues him in his world is the instigator of his incarceration. They form a bond that is a big motivation in the story. I really liked her and found their differences intriguing. when i heard the book was coming out, i was so excited! the scp foundation is one of my most major hyperfixations and i love it to death. and when i saw it at my bookstore i was absolutely over the moon and so happy to be able to finally read it.
