SCP-5317 reference or something. SCP-6747 too, actually, but in SCP-6747-C they're exactly the same thing.

I had a weird ass dream about dr thauddeus thaum is a temu (but successful) version of scp 6747.
So it's kinda like the foundation after the whole 6747 electric boogaloo, they decided to go for round 2. Make the nearly-identical machine (like the one in 6747) but they scavenged whatever left of king's body to make the new machine
Instead of ressurection, they were like "what if we could make life" and then thauddeus thaum was written to exist. But unlike the previous version, thauddeus thaum is more stable, too stable, the whole narrative bubble become stagnant and vulnerable to narrative corruption. But the foundation is too scared cause they don't want emo wattpad dr. king 2.0.
Until that noir parody came in and caused chaos. Thauddeus never gained much character development but murphy forced this guy to actually get more motivation to develop thus becomimg more resistant to corruption.
I guess murphy saved the day again?
Far, far too many KINGs. Nothing to do with EPHEMORA, somebody said he looked a little snake like and it was all downhill from there. I’ve been having a bought of art block

Small Pataphysics ramble
In the second episode of Admonition, AKA SCP-6747, there is a section written by Placeholder under Addendum 6474/I that serves as a sort of introduction to Pataphysics and several of its key concepts. Particularly, this section is very interesting to me
At first, the very obvious statement one can glean is that our world (the world of the author-entities) described is in itself partly fictional and has a higher dimension above it. In rebuttal to that, a person more familiar with the SCP wiki might bring up the existence of SCP-5500. Certainly, while SCP-5500 is said to be occurring within the “real world”, nothing like it actually happened IRL so perhaps there are reality-spaces that exist in between our universe and the SCP multiverse.
However the more interesting implication in this section comes in the form of the “narrative dimensions” described. Three types of realities are described in terms of narrative dimensions here: a 1D world (with one fictional dimension), a 2D world (the SCP world) (with one fictional dimension and one real dimension) and a 3D world (with two real dimensions and one fictional dimension).
The implication here is obvious, and while it may just be my interpretation I find it to be more interesting then the alternative, and that is that every single reality-space has atleast one fictional dimension and thus partly fictional. That POTENTIALLY, there is an infinite string of realities stacked on top of each other all of them fictional in small ways. And that includes us, our reality.
This is perhaps one of the biggest reasons why I love Pataphysics in SCP works and why it manages to set itself apart from all other sort of metafictional works. There is of course the scientific way the information is processed and presented but the way authors manage to explore certain themes and theories and philosophy in such a beautifully clinical way.
One thing that a lot of metafiction or self-referential fiction tends to not dwell upon is, how do WE know we’re not fictional? Or atleast partly fictional? How do we know there isn’t some higher layer of gods influencing us simply using their imagination. This small section manages to ask that question but instead of it being a question or the questioner even being us: it’s a fictional personal in a layer below us telling us the answer. Yes, I am fictional but so are you.
This section is not the focus of the article at all, simply being an explanation of how Pataphysics work to supplement the actual focus of the article (which you should go read for yourself by the way it’s really good.) but it is still really chilling. These thoughts are probably not original and have probably been talked about before but I just wanted to ramble a bit and neither Twitter or Discord has the proper word count so. :p
There’s something in the machine…
[Alternate design of the KING for EPHEMERA. While the actual machine doesn’t look like this in the comic, you will be seeing this design from time to time : ) )
small bit of admonition fanart
I might make an inked version perhaps. Anyways yeh!!
I just very recently re-read Scp-6747. And I gotta say it's definitely more enjoyable when you actually, FINALLY, understand what's going on. :)
It took a while. 6747 was definitely that one ADMONITION article that I did NOT understand for so long. But I think I finally got my brain around it. 👍
Also i think I might've come out of this experience being way more knowledgeable about pataphysics, than stuff ontokinetics and metaphysics. Which are both usually my specialities!
Usually pataphysics is like my actual personal hell when it comes to understanding it.
Oh well. I'm very open to new understandings of fictional parasciences :) 👍
Now all that's left is to figure out how the hell essophysics works...
