SCP Foundation

Ducks distributing swords for iPhones is a way to make an SCP, I guess.

This is a co-authored work between myself and plaguebearer.

Critters include Hot-coles, Eskobar, JanitorCakeworth, Uncle Nicolini, Rounderhouse, Alces_alces, DarkStuff, and HumidHermit. Without their help, this article would be very different from where it started. (Super special thanks to Uncle Nicolini for looking this over more times than reasonable. You're a champion.)

Image was taken by myself, Rockteeth, after taking a walk in Boise, Idaho and seeing this mallard on the sidewalk. I took the picture, and decided it wasn't worth crossing the duck to go to a gas station for soda, and went back to my friend's house.

Hilarious stuff right here. Funny article, RockTeeth and plaguebearer, great job on this one!

Dude! I love this! I can't see anything wrong with it! I love the concept so much! I hope The Volgun does this.

While you have certainly made the character more interesting since I read this in the original draft, there really isn't very much here. I said it once before, but I wanted a reason to care about this character. You two did better at explaining the character's background, but with the interview log it felt more as though it was just shotgunning details about the duck instead of building it up throughout the article.

The ending felt tacked on; why not develop more of a background on the "wizard" in different addenda? I get it that this duck wants to keep with the times, but why would the Foundation even consider trusting it with technology? How does this thing even know what a Google Pixel is when it is supposedly a medieval being?

There's a mystery here; if the SCP were a goose, I might venture an anser. As it is, I only have an atida.

In terms of anomalous ducks, SCP-2730 and SCP-2250 are much more bizarre. As a talking animal, it pales in comparison to SCP-1845 or SCP-1867. And as an eldritch being trapped in the form of a mundane animal, SCP-2576 is much funnier.

The entire thing just feel tacky for me. It's like something piled over one another without clear connection. It's a duck, for some reason. It speaks, in inconsistent vocabulary, for some reason. It trades with old stuff from the 1000s, for some reason. It hates(?) humans, for some reason. It has pocket universe, again, for some unknown reason.

This Duck 100% used to be a dragon.
