This tale took quite a while to write. Not because of its length, which is nothing out of the ordinary, but because of the subject matter. I've written about the apocalypse a few times before, but never quite in this manner, I think.

This tale (and holy fuck, that title) hit me pretty damn hard.
The best among us trypoor panny, he tried so hard and fail.
We gotta work faster.

This is wonderful. Would you mind giving us a list of all the SCPs referenced in this? I got a bunch of the obvious ones, but…
Sure thing:
By order of appearance:
- SCP-1915
- SCP-1935
- SCP-1440
- SCP-963
- Pangloss (various)
- SCP-076
- SCP-073
- SCP-343
- SCP-2845
And various human characters appearing in tales.
I said it in chat, but it bears repeating here.
This piece is incredible on every level. You should be very proud.
If you had asked me what could defeat or destroy every last person, group, and anomaly on the SCPverse's Earth, I would have told you "nothing".
+1.

I…truly don't know what to say about this. This is…amazing. Phenomenal. Powerful. Terrifying. It is probably the best work I have ever seen on the site, and if it isn't, it is very close. You literally took the concept of Nothing…and made it more terrifying than it already is. Dmatix, I don't know that I've ever told you how good of a writer you are, but this is freaking amazing.
+1. I've never wanted so badly to upvote a tale a second time.
Honestly, this didn't quite do it for me. Of your three apocalypse tales, I found this the weakest. I just am not sure what the idea is. Some unstoppable force of annihilation is unleashed out of a drab reality bender, and it gradually consumes the world? It's well-written, but more admirable than interesting or enjoyable.
