Item #: SCP-EQ-017
Object Class: Safe Neutralized
Special Containment Procedures: The area around SCP-EQ-017 has been purchased from the locals and a nature preserve has been built around it, staffed with ponies under Foundation control. Amnestic spells have been distributed through the local population along with the cover story that a nearby river was the original SCP-EQ-017 instead, and that it has lost its properties. Any creature showing too much interest in SCP-EQ-017 or the false river are to be interrogated and doused with amnestic spells.
Acquisition of liquid from the object is to be done with telekinesis only, and requires the approval of at least one (1) researcher with level 4 clearance. All personnel interacting with SCP-EQ-017 are required to wear modified level A hazmat suits. Liquid removed from SCP-EQ-017 must be tagged with a tracking spell and accompanied by a team of six (6) armed guards at all times until delivered to a secure testing facility. Liquid is to be tested for reactivation of anomalous properties daily.
Description: SCP-EQ-017 is a small river located 250 meters outside of the Kirin village, inside the Peaks of Peril. Any creature that comes into contact with liquid from SCP-EQ-017 will enter a state of suppressed emotion and lose the ability to speak. This state will persist indefinitely.
SCP-EQ-017 primary area of effect is strongest along a thirty meter stretch starting at a waterfall, with the chance of being affected by its anomalous properties diminishing the farther downstream one goes. The liquid displays no anomalous properties before this waterfall. Surrounding the base of the waterfall are forty-four menhirs ranging from thirty centimeters to four meters in height. Each menhir contains carvings of a variety of simple shapes exactly five centimeters in depth, which constantly radiate with magical aura that has yet to be identified. Radiometric dating has determined that these menhirs are at least __,___ years old. To date these menhirs have resisted all attempts to be removed.
Liquid taken directly from the immediate area of the waterfall retains its properties indefinitely, until it is applied to a living creature. Chemical and magical analysis has discovered minuscule magical particles in the liquid that become absorbed through the skin as if magnetically attracted. It is currently believed to be some kind of magic pollution radiating out from the menhirs. See the experiment log for more detailed information.
The area around SCP-EQ-017 is unusually lush, containing a wide variety of flowering plants and fruit-bearing trees not native to the Peaks of Peril. A unique subspecies of Hyacinthoides non-scripta, commonly referred to as "Foal's Breath", only grows on the banks of SCP-EQ-017. This flower, when mixed in liquid and imbibed, is the only known way to reverse the effects of SCP-EQ-017. These flowers only grow around the point of the river where its anomalous effects peter out, the correlation of which is still under investigation.
It has been determined by a unanimous vote of the O5 Council to utilize liquid from SCP-EQ-017 as a method to pacify D-class until they are needed for testing. Cultivation of "Foal's Breath" to prevent extinction of antidote ongoing.
Experiment Log SCP-EQ-017
Experiment 017-1
Test Summary: D-193 instructed to submerge entire body in a tub containing 300 liters of liquid from SCP-EQ-017, then subjected to a set of stimuli.
Result: D-193 complied with request and completely submerged self in tub, emerging completely under the effects of SCP-EQ-017. D-193 responded to conversation with head tilts and disinterest, answering only basic yes and no questions. D-193 did not display any reaction when tickled, poked with a sharp implement, or shown a clip from the ending of "Old Yellow". D-193 did not participate in a deliberately initiated musical number. D-193 calmly returned to their cell and sat docilely on their bed until supplied with antidote.
Researcher's notes: If this stuff works the way it appears to, this could change every aspect of the Foundation!
Experiment 017-2
Test Summary: Six D-class instructed to submerge entire body in a tub containing 300 liters of liquid from SCPEQ-017.
Result: First two D-class emerged from the tub under the normal set of effects. The third, D-226, emerged with greatly reduced symptoms. D-226 retained the ability to speak in a monotone and reported experiencing the normal array of emotions, but as if they were happening to somepony else. Remaining D-class unaffected by liquid, which chemical analysis revealed to have become ordinary water.
Experiment 017-3
Test Summary: D-888, a changeling, doused with liquid from SCP-EQ-017 from a shower nozzle for thirty seconds.
Result: D-888 emerges from shower under the effects of SCP-EQ-017. D-888 transforms upon instruction into a variety of creatures, and the effects confirmed to persist in all forms.
Experiment 017-4
Test Summary: D-789, a yak, instructed to place one hoof into a bucket containing 2 liters of liquid from SCP-EQ-017 and remove hoof after ten seconds.
Result: D-789 did as instructed and jerked their hoof out immediately, claiming the water was ice cold and that they wanted to smash the bucket. Researcher noted the thermometer recorded the liquid was room temperature. D-789 ordered to return their hoof to the bucket. D-789 refused and claimed their whole foreleg felt odd. Researchers decide to observe ongoing effects and instruct D-789 to describe the feeling in more detail. Ten seconds pass before D-789 muttered "...smash..." in a dull monotone and then goes silent. Full effects of SCP-EQ-017 confirmed two minutes later.
Experiment 017-5
Test Summary: D-272, a dragon, instructed to imbibe a tea brewed with liquid from SCP-EQ-017.
Result: D-272 drank one cup of tea, vocalized the word "Huh.", placed the cup on the table, and sat still on their chair. Subsequent testing revealed D-272 to be under the expected effects.
Researcher's notes: This stuff is a miracle. There's nothing we won't be able to contain with it!
Further testing indefinitely suspended due to limited reserves of remaining SCP-EQ-017 liquid.
Addendum: Two weeks after initial containment, a sonar scan revealed an unusual shape buried in the riverbed below the waterfall. Upon recovering the object, all the surrounding menhirs stopped glowing at the same time. Testing of the liquid revealed no traces of magical or anomalous properties. SCP-EQ-017 deemed neutralized and remaining gallons of liquid collected prior delivered to Site 20 for storage.
The removed object was revealed to be [REDACTED] reburial did not reactivate SCP-EQ-017. Item given the number SCP-EQ-___ and delivered to Site __.
The origional river was so nasty, Im sure the antidote came,
:sunglasses:
as a Re-Lethe?
Is the buried object comic canon or SCP ?
Are we going to see any other defunct files? Discord's statue before his reformation, perhaps?
“Aw mare, this stuff is super useful!”
“We broke it”
“[REDACTED]!”
Wonder what would happen if Grogar was introduced to this.

This, among many other reasons, is why I had to destroy this object. A spring that quells emotions, specifically anger? There's no reason at all for every sapient entry to not read "Took a bath int he spring and calmly went to their cell". Just kinda undoes the whole fun of the story.
I thought it only took away your ability to speak. Autumn claimed that she went crazy while under its effects.
10702490
I rewatched the episode very closely. They used the phrases "The waters calmed emotions, and peace was soon restored" and "If we get dunked in there, we will never be able to speak or feel anything ever again!". Honestly, I was surprised too. It wasn't what I remembered from the episode, but when it's stated that clearly... what can you do?
10702680
Twilight is a PoI and the Foundation don't use amnesic spells due to her political and cosmic importance. It's quite possible the mirror was donate after she assume the crown.
Due to her new duties of ruling a country that was accustomed to the same head of the state for millennia. She donate the mirror to voluntary to be better defended and the book was a accident, she may have not notice being too busy.
If you feel so maybe try to write a tale when Twilight notice the journal was missing and have to go to her memories in search of it and eventually discovering a secret government organization that is so secretive they purposely erase the memories of they own ruler.
10702997
Sorry, I don't know what the Foundation does with POIs in the Baseline Foundation. Just watch over them and ensure they don't screw things up too badly?
10703128
Worlds leaders in my headcannon are given a basic explantion of the Foundation objectives. Outside from that they probably receive amnesiacs if they presence anomalous activities.
Twilight probably is given the basic as well but has no risk of having her memory erased due to cosmic importamce and she is connected to a force that keep the universe in balance.
She donate the mirror along with her journal accidently and don't notice yet. If the season 10 comic goes by she still ajusting her position.
Thinking back in the show Starswill did show multiple locations of "darkness" and one of these places is Manehattan. It would be nice to write several deadly SCPs show in the city time to time.
Also in the same episode a ancient temple was discovered bellow Hollow Shades where it depict the Pony of Shadows and Sunburst remark the location was remote and abandoned long ago. It would make sense the Foundation bough the entire land and purposely erased any mention of the Well of Shadows and that village was massacred by Foundation soldiers once it was discovered they were cultist trying to find a new vessel for the Shadow.

I honestly thought the effects could only apply to Kirins, or at least until you play with those runes enough to "change settings". Then again maybe I should rewatch. Still, I'm sad to see this scip get killed by accident.
But hey, in other news, glad you're in a stable situation again! Hopefully your job treats you well now.
Oh, and tiny correction: the Foundation usually blocks out the entirety of a number, so instead of "__,000", you'd see "████" or "█████".
Protip: spoiler the block characters like this: ████.
So is pinkie pie's mane and tail hair an scp? I feel it should be...or she should be...
She totally is....
10708454
She 'potentially' might be an anomaly. It's entirely possible that everything she's been shown doing was due to her Cutie Mark magic manifesting in this way. Still, Pinkie is odd enough she might be an anomaly classed as a Thaumiel given she's uncontainable long term and generally benefits pony kind as a whole.
Other SCP ideas
1. Sombra's Horn - Indestructible and will continue to reform King Sombra on its own. Can infest the land if left unchecked and spawn dark crystal formations. Said Crystals seep away the ambient magic found in the land and from nearby lifeforms and help fuel Sombra's revival. This is based on when his horn was cut off by Cadance's shield and infected the land. When Sombra revives he becomes a Euclid or Keter level threat. Could even give his reformations like stages, so you get his smoky resurrected form and you get his actual physical body one.
2. Discord's Statue - The original one he was imprisoned within. It's spent over 1000 years soaking up and containing Discord's chaotic power. The Fragments from the statue are anomalous and form a shared mind. The statue causes sporadic bursts of chaotic activity but only does so for attention. The statue can be contained by simply complimenting its chaotic abilities.
3. Inspiration Manifestation - I know Spike destroyed the Book, but I remember the magic leaving Rarity? Presumably that magic could simply find and create another magical book to store itself inside? Maybe its harder to imprison because the original book containing it was made out of something that kept the magic bound to that one book. Only now it can escape and possess other books. turning them into a new copy of itself? People effected are thankfully easy to spot due to the glowing green eyes and magic?

i just think itd be really funny to see how the scp tries to "secure here" and "contain her" XD
10708990
Pinkie is the MLP equivalent of 343.
10708953
She's a Keter / Thaumiel, subclass
WhiteGray*.She's (probably) uncontainable, but she's a force that benefits the Foundation by helping to contain hazardous anomalies, and usually she is benign outside of containment... Unless her alternate persona "Pinkamena" is activated, and she becomes a serious threat to herself and others.
If we give Pinks an examplary nomination of 100, then I think she'd be Keter/Thaumiel - White, a Class A instance, then Piniamena would be SCP 100 - B, Keter - Yellow, and would have her own set of containment procedures (with the goal of turning back into normal Pinkie). In this case, there is no SCP 100 by itself: only 100A and 100B.
(I realize this does not perfectly follow the standard SCP-F format, feel free to improve my idea)
10709896
I mean it could be possible that Pinkamena is now an independent entity after Pinkie took brief control of Grogar's bell? Splitting herself off during that event. Or maybe that god-tier Pinkie has actually become its own things, set to return sometime in the future? There's also the possibility of one of more Pinkie Pie Doppelgangers from the Mirror Pool becoming or transforming into Pinkamena?

Oh, I remember that story! Yeah, that was definitely in the back of my mind when I was typing that reply up earlier, I couldn't remember the title or I may have linked it. Glad to see you have a good eye for similar stories.
A good SCP would be the Wendigos.
Accord to the show they were disprove by modern historians as a myth than the truth of events that happen one thousand years ago.
The Foundation could hold the three Wendigos you see in Season 9 and thanks to a containment breach they manage to escape and cause havoc.
They containment largely consist in the hapiness of the population with negative emotions being predominant they will become too strong to be contained and will escae a way or another.
Why don’t you end it with the file for SCP-EQ-1000 also known as The Magic of Friendship.
10701049
I was actually wondering something along those lines myself.
