#serpent's hand

[ajente2o]

There is a Point in the life of every SCP fan when you just have to acept than the foundation's constant fight for normalcy is inherently evil.

That they have no rights to decide what should be public knowledge, what should be free, and what should not.

That for every horror seeking to devour humanity there are at least one random kid that can float 2 centimeters on tuesdays or something.

That for every necessary evil there are multiple cases of inhumane tortures born of incompetence, morbid curiosity and/or their pathological need to contain everything anomalous.

That the garden is the serpent's place

Does the Bright family exist in your headcanon, and if so, how are they all doing?

Please please please let TJ have a good day I beg.

Yes, they do exist! Here are my headcanons:

TJ Bright:

Got a dose of SCP-500 and is now back to full health

Went to Deer College, majored in anomalous medicine

Went to Alexylva University, got a doctorate in anomalous medicine (he is now Dr. Bright)

Works in the medical wing of the Foundation now

Very cozy all the time (wears long sleeves, long pants, gloves, and a hoodie)

Likes painting Warhammer 40k minis

Is good with a gun

Is aroace

Attended the blorbos' wedding

Doing pretty well

Mikell Bright:

Is O5-6

Has a charming Southern accent

Cannot sit still and suits are a sensory overload for him (but when he does wear a suit, it's a white one, with a white cowboy hat)

Doesn't really get sarcasm

Can control plants (because I'm not letting a member of the Bright family get off with being non-anomalous)

Because of the above, he can often be seen with flowers in his hair

Attended the blorbos' wedding (Thompson and Black were sitting a few seats away, disguised as random guests)

Really needs glasses but doesn't know it

Is gay

Doing okay

Sarah Bright (SCP-321):

Loved her stuffed bear

Would occasionally stack blocks as high as she could, then knock them over and giggle

Favorite handler was Dr. Sarah Rilkes, who treated her more like a person than the other handlers (she couldn't fully grasp the concept of this, but she knew Dr. Rilkes was nicer than the others)

Did not like toy balls; they're hard to grab

Drew all the time: on paper and the walls of her chamber

Hated bath time with a passion

Just fell asleep one night and didn't wake up (her heart gave out)

Had a formal funeral: even Mikell cleared enough time in his packed schedule to be there

Doing well (in the afterlife)

Claire Lumineux:

Reads books and watches TV for the plot, not the suspense (she already knows what's going to happen, let's just see how)

Lives in Three Portlands, spending most of her time at the Wanderer's Library

Gives dating advice to her fellow Hand members: "nope, he's trouble", "I mean, sure, if you want to get shipped off to the Jailors in a crate", stuff like that

Crosses the street on her phone; she already knows if a car's coming or not

Attended the blorbos' wedding under supervision

Paints her nails iridescent green

Is a lesbian

Doing great

Adam Bright:

Never hit his kids, but got pretty close

Alt-right; would have supported Trump

Went out to the local bar a lot, didn't come home until after the kids were in bed

Didn't treat Evelyn as an equal (this was the Sixties and Seventies, but STILL)

Usually seen wearing a baseball cap

Wanted to have a son who did sports; when Mikell went off to college, that role passed to Jack, who got his arm broken by that bully Mitch Peters, leading to the next bullet point

Used the window of opportunity created by Jack's broken arm and Mikell's being at college to bring TJ to the Foundation and have him contained

Did not attend the blorbos' wedding, due to being dead (assassinated bc he wanted to get Sarah out of containment) (Mikell was the passing vote on the assassination plot)

Was straight and proud of it

Didn't let anyone find out what his anomalous property was

Slept around a lot

Doing badly (also in the afterlife)

Evelyn Bright:

Great cook, could probably cook the most difficult dishes without a problem

Does needlepoint, usually those embroidery circles

Knits with such speed people think she's using thaumaturgy (she's not)

Is a Type Blue

Wouldn't be caught dead wearing a skirt; we live in a time where women can wear pants and she is going to wear pants

Once knitted an entire cloak for a fellow Hand member because everybody forgot their birthday

Lives in Three Portlands

Attended the blorbos' wedding under supervision

Is bisexual; has a girlfriend but they haven't gotten serious yet

Sends all her children cards on their birthdays

Doing pretty well

Thanks for the ask! Hope this answers your question! -Thaumiel

The Serpent's Hand

The Serpent's Hand is an underground political movement operating in strict opposition to the veil of secrecy imposed by groups like the Global Occult Coalition or the SCP Foundation.

Somewhat lead by The Black Quean, daughter of Site-17 Foundation Director, Dr. Gears, The Serpent's Hand believes that the veil oppresses both the anomalous and the people it keeps ignorant.

All you need to do to join is to say you're a member; it's less of an official group and more of an ideology. The often-considered true organization of The Serpent's Hand make's its base of operation in The Wanderer's Library, a pan-multiversal faerealm library that was created by the forgotten Concept, an archivist of blue and white, these are the ones directly lead by The Black Quean.

A challenge often posed to The Jailers and The Book Burners in regard to civilians is simply "The only way to be safe from something you don't understand is to rely on someone who does."

In their view, they put themselves in power by controlling what people know. It's much harder to defend a demographic you don't even know exists, and it's much easier to control someone when you've made yourself their only means of safety.

All of this culminated in the veil hunt. To The Serpent's Hand, this genocide of anomalies was proof of everything they've been saying for who even knows how long. The Book Burners earned their title during this event when they tried to attack the movement by destroying The Wanderer's Library, they failed, they lost much more than they took; but they took an entire wing of the library.

Even with the backlash, and the reforms after, this proved that the veil was a weapon and a tool of oppression.

"We will free those you keep imprisoned. We will rescue those you try to kill.

The Garden is The Serpent's place.

We are The Serpent's Hand."

My friend and I were talking about how Trump would react to the Broken Masquerade SCP canon and also realized the way the Foundation treats the Serpent's Hand is just like how Trump treats "Antifa" and thus I made this

[goc-agent-labyrinth]

The reason behind GOC nicknames for GOIs

Burnout (Prometheus Labs): They burnt out. They collapsed. They flopped.

Carcinoma (CI): it's a type of cancer that happens when the DNA of a cell gets messed up and the cell starts growing uncontrollably and getting worse for health

Kewpie (Foundation): A collectible baby doll that some people keep on their shelves and don't touch (like the Foundation does with some anomalies)

Kringle (Wondertainment): Kris Kringle. Santa Claus. Need I say more?

Lerna (Serpent's Hand): Based off the Lernaean Hydra (a chthonic many-headed snake). Unrelated, but Heracles (Hercules was the Roman version) killed it for Task #2.

Poe (Parawatch): Edgar Allan Poe wrote spooky stories about the paranormal and the supernatural, like Parawatch does.

Teresa (MCF): Mother Teresa founded this thing called the Missionaries of Charity, a religious group that got its start helping "the poorest of the poor" in the slums of Calcutta.

Warhol (AWCY?): Andy Warhol was an influential and controversial artist who's considered one of the most important artists of the 20th century. He made those paintings of the Campbell's Soup Cans.

if you go to Deer College you're an anarchist hipster 3port suburb kid and no one will take you seriously, if you go to the ICSUT you're an authoritarian suckup, if you go to The Mage's Academy you're a LARPing curmudgeon following medieval pseudoscience, if you go to the Serpent's Hand you're immediately an outlaw literally everywhere, and don't even think about site 43. HOW THE HELL IS ANYONE SUPPOSED TO BECOME A TYPE BLUE THESE DAYS???
