I came here for Soviet bugman Master Chief and left tearing up at the Broken Masquerade version of Alexei. That was beautiful

When Bigfoot is the least weird part of an SCP...

[sethleoric]

I love how it's basically a metaphor for Veterans trying to live in society again.

[johnyonghwang]

I find SCPs that are don't hurt anyone actually much interesting than the horror cliche's that SCP is known for.

[dominatorandwhocaresanyway]

"living bug as armor"
so basically soviet warframe

[tiredfailure]

Man alternate universe Russian Master Chief hits way different

[Green_Guy]

Why is the concept of "living armor" just always so cool to me?!?
I always imagined a sort of friendship between a doc and an SCP... and... this was... beautiful, sad... and beautiful.

The world Major Alexei comes from is very reminiscent of Metro 2033 - with Alexei being a Guyver version of Artiom

"The last three years have been hard. I'm not meant for this world, Doctor. This is a world of flashing lights and happy people and air and food and capitalism and things I'd never imagined. Your world is stranger than the books and music and films I was allotted ever allowed me to conceive of. People in Russia walking on the surface, making phone calls to friends in the United States while military personnel from both countries cooperate to secure peace in places like Libya and Syria. It's beautiful, Doctor █████████. And it's not meant for me."

This one paragraph of the POI file of 2273 and it made me legitimately grateful of my life because it reminded me that things could be a lot worse. I swear, the people who write these stories for some of the most ambiguous scp's should be authors because HOLY HELL are they dedicated to telling a convincing narrative.

tl;dr: scp articles have no right to slap this hard.

[yehonathan]

Damn... this SCP is not about the aesthetic of this humanoid-insect, but the feels that he provides.

[MalcavIan]

"A machine whose gear grind against each other is a machine that cannot work." *looks over at the news* Yep.

[jasdanvm]

The fact that the russian goverment of Broken Mascarade despised him for being an anomaly, wich he was made into by an alternative Russian government is just really hurtful.

[jonbaxter]

"Though Freidrich is unmarried, he is not unloved"
Aww...

"The letter was four days late"

oh...

[devonharris]

Thank you, AJ Blackwood, for this gorgeously written tale that makes us all forget the fact that he looks like a monster.

[ianrenova]

A very human scp entry. A story of a warrior finding peace.

[masterzoroark]

Calling SCP "Crows" is fitting. Stealing shit from people, hoarding knowledge

[connerhastings]

Before containment: *BLYAT*
During containment: vibin with my friends
After containment: sad anime music while in church

[Site_]

Surprisingly deep; always appreciate authors who go the extra mile.

[samuelsami]

There is no victory without sacifice mason, we russians know this the best

[CommanderViviax]

That is amazing!

Poor Alexei! I'm glad he found happiness. And a friend in Dr Friedrich.
