**Name/Title:** [https://www.scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-049 Dr. Theron Sherman], Site Director of Site-42

**Known Aliases:** Sherm, TheeSherm, [https://www.scp-wiki.wikidot.com/dado-hub thee sherbert], Sherman Sherman, The Sherminator, Sherman Tank, Sherman Hemsley, Sherwin Williams, Sherm the Worm, Shermy, P. Sherman 42 Wallaby Way Sydney, Sherman Klump, "Where's Mr. Peabody, Sherman?" 

**Hire Date:** ██/██/2015

**Reason for Joining The Foundation:** Honestly, I was just looking up monsters for a Dresden Files Tabletop Game that I was DMing (FATEcore, to be specific) when I found some cool monsters and joined the wiki for funsies. Then I just started using the SCPs as voice acting demos on YouTube because Creative Commons meant I wouldn't be sued. //Then// I saw people that were actually //watching// the videos and decided to start [https://www.youtube.com/c/theesherm42 Site-42]. //**THEN**// I got really hardcore and somehow wrote --three-- four SCP articles[[footnote]] Also, a Tale. [[/footnote]][[footnote]] Also also, voiced parts for numerous SCPs on the main site. Just check out the Articles tab. [[/footnote]]. And here you are on my Author Page. Go you. Welcome.

**Research Focus:** I have a two pronged thought process about my place in the community:

As an artist and emotional person, I wanted to make cool SCP stuff any way I could. Voiceover was my first route because acting was my easiest accessible skillset and I had a microphone on hand, then I made some video essays because I do some teaching and educating is a passion of mine, then I wrote some SCPs after I gained that confidence. Most of all, I wanted [https://www.youtube.com/c/theesherm42 Site-42] to be a contributing part of the SCP Community rather than being on the outside looking in. 

As a professional, I want to use my background in Theatre and Film to build a full-fledged, community funded production studio called Site-42 Studios. Our goal is to hire on actors, editors, tech crew, makeup artists, props makers, and use all these specialists to make the high-quality Live Action Adaptations of SCP Content that everybody wants to see. A big company like Netflix can’t own the SCP due to Creative Commons, so they won’t touch the license. It’s up to us as a fandom to coalesce and lift up our Content Creators so they can make the best stuff they can.

**Who made the sweet art for this author page?** That would be [[user Yossipossi]] on CSS and [[user smlt]] on the Site-42 logo.

**Hey, isn't A Random Day/Dr. Desai the Director of Site-42?** What? No. There is no canon. Shut up.

[[user Modulum]]
 for speccing this before posting in the forums and on Discord.

Why is there text if this is //**SUPER IMPORTANT DON'T TYPE IT?!**// Because some people don't have headphones and the audio is eleven minutes so I'm okay with people suspending their disbelief.

B: 
Audio Log 1: Hey, we have this dopey anomaly, let's poke it with a stick.

[[collapsible show="+ SCP-3302: "The Jim Look"" hide="- hide"]]

[[[SCP-3302]]]

My first attempt at a short article with no gimmick.

Some random thoughts about this SCP:

Coldpost challenge: I wanted to see if I could go start to finish without help and make it work.

Inspiration can come from anywhere: I had a eureka moment in the middle of a stress state after reading an r/SCP writing prompt about “The Office box set that forces you to binge the whole thing.” I obviously went a different route, but still…

Rule of three: Very basic version in the interview. Test, test, not test. Set-up, repetition, subversion.

Series IV Stereotypes: This is short. It’s not meta. It’s not a world ender or even that dangerous.

The Final Addendum/Twist: The bulk of the article was written to be a stand-alone story about how it would suck to have people know when you thought they were stupid because I don’t think they mention how rude that would be in “The Office.” The final twist came to me right at the finish and I think it adds a nice WTF Weird at the end, and I only had to add 5 or 6 words to the interview to foreshadow it.

[[collapsible show="+ SCP-2700-EX: What I Did For Love" hide="- hide"]]

[[[SCP-2700-EX]]]

This is my first time writing a story with a personal reason; it actually made it harder for me because I knew what I was trying to say but I had to keep adding on more and more because I wasn't communicating that to the reader.

Also, if we need a skip for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I got you fam.

Special thanks to 

[[user Westrin]] (for critting it multiple times)
[[user not_a_seagull]] (for the Draft Forum Crit)
[[user BlazingTrail]] (for having exceeding faith in the concept and a couple crits)
[[user Doctor Cimmerian]] (for a crit that cut to the heart of the issue in a thoroughly academic way)
[[user PhamtomGuy]] (especially for picking the appropriate SCP number)

Cliff's Notes to this Skip

SCP-2700-EX is breast cancer. Run of the mill, non-anomalous breast cancer.
Harold's wife got breast cancer. He made up the fact that it was contagious and made it sound super scary so the Foundation would research it.
He tried to use an SCP to cure it. It got worse.
He tried to get a cross-test with SCP-500, but was denied.
He tried to steal a pill of SCP-500. It didn't go well.
The Ethics Committee let him off easy.

[[[SCP-3802]]]

Thanks to [[User Westrin]], [[User Varaxous]], and [[User MaliceAforethought]] for pushing me to make this a little more than it was, and thanks to [[User BlazingTrail]] for scoping it out near the finish.

Also thanks to [[User djkaktus]] for creating dado and approving of this iteration.

All-in-all, I just had that “hare growth” thing stuck in my head after reading dado stuff and had to get it out; thankfully the top of my head and other body parts stayed attached.

A little heartwarming:
I’m really happy with my headcanon that dado tried not to hurt the kids, even if he didn’t/chose not to understand what he was actually supposed to do.

A little horrifying:
I got some WTFs in crit for the Beta manifestation, so I’m happy about that.

I hope ya’ll enjoy it.

[[[Ignorance is Bliss]]]

Almost a Doomcon entry, now just part of a sweet canon we can build at a leisurely pace.

Thanks to The Whistleblowers for working with me on an excellent end-of-the-world that let me throw some characters in a hella unique situation and run wild with it for 8,500ish words.
[[User Yossipossi]] [[User Modulum]] [[User BlazingTrail]]

Also thanks to [[User Doctor Cimmerian]] for crit, [[User Cyantreuse]] for a thorough line-by-line, and [[User Westrin]] for letting me know that the jokes landed well.

__Notes about this Tale:__

Essentially, I got super excited when I thought about the idea of a Terminatoresque future apocalypse where the Pattern Screamers wrecked the planet, but there were still Foundation forces holding out because the Screamers only come after you if you know about them so when they're pinned down, the Agents self-amnesticize, and wake up in a 28 Days Later situation where they don't have a damn clue what's going on until they manage to get scooped up and retrained. Alan's cold open was pretty much my first idea from that train of thought.

My first thought was to have Alan essentially go through a cycle; wake up, get picked up and retrain, make friends with the team, go on a mission, shit goes bad, self-amnesticize at the last minute, and wake up to do it all again. Somewhere along the way, the team became singularly Brianna. I also found that I wanted her to be more capable than Alan (it made it interesting for him not to be the Greatest Soldier Evar TM) and as he realized that, it made sense that he was going to have to die to save her so she could fight on better than he could.

It was only an hour into writing it that I realized that I had never actually written a Tale before, that I didn't exactly know how to write one, and that the only time I had tried to write in first-person perspective before couldn't get off the ground. The Whistleblowers liked what I had from the first hour and that gave me the confidence to drive forth. From there, I essentially called on my experience from writing TTG campaigns to drive me through the story. (Where are we? What is located there? What do you do? What effect does that have? Where do you go next? Rinse, repeat.) and it drove me fairly well down the nearly 10,000 words. 

The nice thing about writing a story for a Tale versus a TTG is that while you are riffing, if you come up with an awesome idea, you can go back and build in foreshadowing after the fact. In my game nights, I'd always be going "Damn, that would have been awesome if I'd been leading up to that somehow," but for Ignorance, I could go back and add those Chekov's Guns and those plot threads that I'd thought of the ending for.

Special shoutout for Cimmerian and what I think is the brilliant idea for changing to third-person perspective after Alan dies. Just, so thematic, much meaning.

[[[SCP-5886]]]

> And I'll be there before you know it, I'll be gone before you see me
> 
> And do you think you can imagine, anything so lonely?
> 
> And I know you'd really like me, but I never stick around

> Because time keeps dragging on, and on, and on…

This is my first article in over 2 years. The inspiration is the song The Ballad of Barry Allen by Jim’s Big Ego, and I have a lot of feelings about that song and this piece. I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you to VoidLady, etoisle, and KatieBoo for critiquing this piece.

Spoilers: 

This is The Flash, but sad. One day his status as a Speedster class superhero activated, and now he moves faster than we can perceive, and his perception of time has adjusted accordingly.

James can interact with us however he wants, but the first time he's even been seen in a long time is when he started hanging out mostly on the bed in Site-42 while waiting for Pegasus Rising to open a hole to a new universe. We try to stick him with a needle? He moves so we don't stick him. Seems intangible to us, as best we can tell.

If half of a 50th of a second feels like 1.5 hours, he is moving, just, so fast. What did he do that real-time year he was wandering? Did he ever encounter a person or anomaly that could provide him a shred of company in that time? What’s on the other side of that wormhole? That's fodder for future stories. If you write a James Biggio Tale, I’d love to see it.

Finally, heh. I wrote a short story about a speedster. I guess you could call this "Flash Fiction."

Post-Edit: Just some things about being James that would suck that I thought about.

-No Internet, because the signals don’t travel. Hence libraries.
-No cars, because the engine would function that slowly. I’m imagining he biked everywhere.

[[collapsible show="+ SCP-5542: Cake By The Ocean" hide="- hide"]]

[[[SCP-5542]]]

Yes, this was inspired by the meme of "Everything is Cake" paired with the title of [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWaRiD5ym74 that song.]

Special thanks to [[user Glewmie]] who earned the hell out of that Co-Author credit. Between line-by-lining this so hard it went from good to excellent and inspiring me to build other parts well beyond what they were initially, I would be remiss in not sharing the spotlight for this work.

Thanks to [[user Etoile]] for the deep crit as well as VioletChaos364 and SCP-420-J from Site-42's Discord server for voicing support. Thank you to Goose for the initial idea as well as bugging me until I actually wrote it.

Spoilers, Easter Eggs, and Themes:

High Concept: "Bougie Monsters are pulling a modern day Hansel and Gretel in SoCal."

Once Santa Barbara was chosen as the setting of the story, I recalled that the show Psych was set there. That's how we got a local psychic/detective and the character names and personalities of the investigating agents.

Agents on the wiki are very often strict and serious business, so I'm quite excited to get some Foundation employees acting like normal people, joking around on the job, and of course, sometimes the bad guy gets away.

Engelbert Humperdink made an opera of Hansel and Gretel starring Rosina Leckermaul.

You can totally make flour and bread from human bones. They did it in Paris during a famine. It killed those who ate it though, so best not to be grinding bones for your bread. (I know that's Jack and the Beanstalk, but it's still Grimm!)

While searching for articles to read, I discovered that [[User MaliceAforethought]]'s first article was also an infohazard that had to be contained via an audio file (the same schtick that I did for my first article, [[[SCP-3086]]]). I offered to record it for him so it could be done the same way, and [[User TSATPWTCOTTTADC]] tagged in to help and did the Russian voice wonderfully as well.
