Hub (of Sorts): AWD HUB

Note: Should this series get its own hub, too? I might make it a subsection of the AWD Hub.

Prologue: The Second Spark
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/the-second-spark
Day is established, Kitty and Viv are introduced. AWD is back and better than ever, now with 100% less ethic violations!

ACT ONE: The beginnings of AWD 2. Everything looks good, but something is off with this Day guy…

SCP-XXXX: TRIPLE BUG ATTACK
http://lspr.wikidot.com/awd-bug

A fun, lighthearted SCiP with Viv and some anomalous bugs. Very, very lighthearted, very different from AWD 1. Hayk can be dragged into this. She was involved with AWD 1 to an extent, so it makes sense she would be here too.

A Day In The Life of AWD

Another slice-of-life, with Kitty and Viv. Some scenes with Day being weird, not remembering interactions he had that same day. We also get a glimpse at some other AWD members. Little segments here and there of their days. Hayk, Viv, Kitty, Vrishti, Hugh, and someone who gets fired later on.

SCP-XXXX: Frog Attack

Kitty-focused one. A bit more serious, with an evil frog army trying to overthrow humanity. Starts with weaponization attempt, but once the Frog escapes, gets captured, then escapes again to start an army, AWD starts a war against the Frog army. They try first to resolve it peacefully (we can intregate you to human society! ennui protocol so everyone thinks you were always part of humanity, we already did it with chicago forever ago…) but the frogs just want blood, so they wipe them off the face of the Earth. some interaction w/ 225 and Dir Edward to contrast him w/ Jimmy

Interlude: Thaumic Parasite

An SCP where a thaumic parasite latches onto a member of AWD's Occult Studies Division (Eloise Belrose) and AWD uses it as a weapon, at the expense of its host

ACT TWO: Ok, seriously. What's up with this Day guy? This is the Act where cracks begin to show.

to be figured out. last article needs to have the reveal that there's 7 Days, and he's been cloned from SCP-222. i want there to be a GoI Format, the 7 Days reveal could be that. maybe a project with 222 gets blocked by Day?

SCP-XXXX: Questing Beast

A hunt for the Arthurian Questing Beast leds AWD to have an expedition into a fantasy pocket dimension. Kat and Viv are part of it due to their field experience, Hayk for support, Finner for his extradimensional expertise, and Day for oversight, + some others. Kat and Viv are cataloging the wildlife they find, and Day seems pretty callous about everything.

Therapy Talks
http://lspr.wikidot.com/therapy-talks

A year into AWD, Akabi Hayk conducts interviews on other key characters to assess their opinions on AWD and their mental wellbeing. Softer, check-in tale.

GoI Format: Chaos Insurgency Format

A CI format where they attempt to siege Area-34 and get their asses beat

SCP-XXXX: Sixteen Tons
http://lspr.wikidot.com/16

AWD revitalizes the Sixteen Tons program — an MTF made up of captured GoI agents. In exchange for their forced service, the agents are promised a lighter sentence (even if most of them never make it back from these missions). AWD expands the program to include humanoid SCPs. The actual SCP is a woman with the ability to rewind time upon her death, like Moira MacTaggert from X-Men. The Foundation is vaguely aware of this ability, but booked her for some other anomaly she has. The story is told through a Twine interactive story that follows the MTF on the mission to stop a fusion cult of Fifthism and Children of the Scarlet King from manifesting an essophysical entity, with the SCP as the POV character.

Tale/SCP: The Reveal

day and his connection to SCP-222 is discovered

ACT THREE: There's 7 Days???? What the hell!! Kitty and Viv, plus some friends picked up along the way, try to figure out how to grapple with this.

tbd. im thinking that, when they confront Day about being a group of clones, he doesn't really care.

concerns:: should he be clones? i kinda built the story with the idea that he's clones, but idk if that has enough of an oomph to be the big reveal. CRat mentioned thinking that the handshake with the C was some sort of contract, maybe that's it? Jim's been around since the start of the Foundation by hopping bodies. Kitty and Viv find photos from early on with Jimmy there. Would still work with Jimmy showing up alive after we've seen him die.

"Ok."

"Ok?"

"Yeah, ok. I have some secrets, so what? What are going to do about it?"

"I-I.." Kat looked to Viv for some help, but she seemed as lost as her. "This has to be against some rules in the Foundation!"

Day shook his head. "Nope."

"B-but your clones—!"

"Are marked correctly." He held his hand up, brandishing that same 'C' tattoo.

"But your foreheads aren't marked."

"Oh, we don't have to do that anymore. They phased that out forever ago. Did they not update the 222 documents? Oh well."

"Ethics Committee, the Overseers! They gotta have some issues with this."

Day scoffed. "You don't think they know? Hell, they're the ones who came up with the idea of cloning me."

Characters

bleh

Katherine Summers

Katherine Summers

Kitty

Basic Information

Name (aliases, nicknames etc.): Doctor Katherine "Kat" Summers. Kitty for Vivian

Age: 35

Gender: Female, she/her

Place of birth: Portland, Oregon

Residence(s): Grew up in Portland. After stumbling into 3Ports, she moved there until she graduated from Deer College. After getting scouted by the Foundation, she moves into living quarters in Site-225, and then in Area-34. Her room has always been messy. She tries her best to keep it clean, but she's always so busy with other stuff.

Ethnicity: Jewish

Culture: Culturally American. Her parents were practicing Jews, but she never really had a thing for it. Moving into 3Ports as a teenager normalized the strange early on. She tends to approach the anomalous with curiosity rather than fear, a stance that occasionally clashes with older Foundation staff.

Occupation(s) or specialties: Parabiologist. She chose to pursue this after witnessing the wildlife in 3Ports, and determined to make them the focus of her life. She was fond of her work at Site-225, studying and caring for the anomalous critters that come in. But in Area-34, she feels hesitant to put her expertise to work, scared that her efforts will be retooled for weaponry.

Socioeconomic status: Well off for most of her life. Finanicially stable but detached from material pursuits

Appearance

Defining facial features: Soft features framed by curly brown hair tied up in a loose bun. Her eyes, gray green, were bright with curiosity, but ringed by fatigue. Friends see warmth and quiet humor. Enemies might see nervousness

Height, build, body type: 5'7", average build. A bit from the athletic side from fieldwork, but she hasn't had much chances for fieldwork after Area-34. A bit self-concious about it, though rarely acts on it.

Mannerisms and gestures: Talks with her hands. Adjusts her glasses when thinking. Taps her fingers against thighs or tables when anxious. She's more comfortable expressing thoughts physically than verbally.

Style: Practical. Favors layered clothes, usually muted colors. Gray, green, navy. Lab coat almost always on. Her aesthetic isn't careless, just unpolished, a byproduct of a busy mind.

Dress: Labwear most days. Field gear for fieldwork. off-duty, she wears soft sweaters and jeans, things that can be easily cleaned. She dislikes formality, but has a forest green dress on hand.

Accessories: A small silver pendant gifted to her by Vivian during their recruitment

Other visual features: Small scar on her left hand from an encounter in Site-225. A small tattoo of a deer on her ankle that she got while drunk in college.

Personality

Defining traits: Curious, empathetic, quietly stubborn, idealistic to a fault. Originates from her upbringing in an supernatural environment. Over time, idealism hardened into subdued defiance. She's learned not to challenge superiors openly, but she still questions everything.

Personality type: INFJ, Enneagram 4w5, Virgo

Archetype: Which common tropes do they exhibit?

Strengths and weaknesses: Her compassion allows her to understand anomalies others fear — but it also leaves her emotionally exhausted. She's brilliant at observation but struggles with decisive action when stakes turn moral

Flaws: Tends to internalize guilt. Overanalyzes everything. Avoids confrontation until it festers.

Beliefs and spirituality: Agnostic leaning towards atheism. Finds more awe in biology than theology

Morals and values: Believes the anomalous is not inherently dangerous — just misunderstood. She's guided by empathy, but knows the Foundation's focus on study and containment is a moral sinkhole.

Hopes and dreams: To rediscover the sense of wonder she first had in 3Ports. She wants her work to mean something, preservation, not exploitation. But in AWD, that feels naive.

Skills: Parabiology, field survival, observational documentation, animal behavior analysis, sketching, quick adaptation in unfamiliar ecosystems.

Interests or hobbies: Sketching, gardening, reading, playing old games.

Powers (if any): Very, very low thaumaturgy potential. Maybe enough to make a single spark or shake a spoon, but she's never bothered working on it.

Intimacy: Physically shy but emotionally deep. She's been in love before (Hey, Viv), though neither acted on it. Prefers emotional intimacy over physical.

Tastes and preferences: Prefers tea to coffee, though she drinks both. Loves the smell of soil and rain. Prefers small groups to crowds.

Fears, phobias, or prejudices: Scared her work will be used for harm. Mildly claustrophobic, hates being underground too long. Ironic, given Area-34's location.

Contradictions: Wants to help others but avoids vulnerability. Criticizes Foundation ethics yet would never speak out against it.

Pet peeves: People who misuse scientific jargon. Colleagues who treat anomalies as tools.

Habits and quirks: Twirls her pen when thinking. Talks to herself or her plants when writing, Keeps plants alive with startling consistency.

Focus and obsessions: Protecting anomalous life. Her focus can become tunnel vision — she'll prioritize a specimen over her own well-being.

Possessions of value: Her gifted pendant, her first field notebook from 3Ports, a faded photo of her and Viv taken years ago.

Health: Occasional insomnia; mild stress-induced migraines.

What they like about themselves: Her curiosity and compassion. She feels these keep her "human" amid the Foundation's distant coldness.

What they dislike about themselves: Her hesitancy to act, and how easily she doubts herself.

What they admire in others: Conviction, humor, boldness.

What they dislike in others: Blind obedience, cruelty masked as pragmatism

Relationships

Family or guardians: Parents were kind but distant, more devout than she could relate to. Their structured worldview clashed with her need to explore.

Pets: none. Use to keep a gecko at Site-225, but left it with Edward when she moved.

Friends: Vivian Day (closest friend, unresolved history). Occasional correspondence with old Site-225 and Deer College friends.

Allies and enemies: Generally well-liked among staff. Cautiously distrusted by higher-ups.

Past and current partners/love interests: Vivian Day. Tension between professional loyalty and personal affection.

Mentors and confidants: Dir. Edward Irkiv (Site-225). Helped shape Kat's ethical foundation

Heroes: The early naturalists who documented anomalies.

Trust: Earned slowly but deeply. Once lost, nearly impossible to regain.

Background

Upbringing or parenting style: Middle-class household. Parents loving but traditional. Kat grew restless and distant, drawn to exploration and independence.

Formative memories: Discovering a Way into 3Ports at age 13

Education: Top of her class at Deer College, major in parabiology with a focus on field ecology. Found theory dull but thrived in fieldwork.

Major life events: Discovering and moving into 3Ports, recruitment into the Foundation, meeting Viv, cataloguing her first anomaly, transfer into AWD.

Accomplishments: Published several internal Foundation reports on anomalous ecosystems.

Failures: Lost a specimen under her care ate Site-225. Still haunts her.

Disappointments: Watching AWD lean into armament. Feels like betrayal of everything she worked toward

Motivations

Goals: Short-term: Survive AWD without compromising her ethics. Long-term: Create a framework for ethical anomaly management within the Foundaiton

What do they want?: To protect, not weaponize. To build meaning into a system that discards it.

How do they try to get it?: Careful diplomacy — she plays the obedient scientist while subtly redirecting projects away from exploitation.

What happens if they do/don't succeed?: If she succeeds, she'll become a quiet reformer. If not, she'll lose herself to cynicism.

Internal conflicts: Duty vs. conscience

External conflicts: Bureaucractic pressure, political oversight, and the weaponization of her field.

What are they trying to hide?: She once sabotaged a project at 225 to prevent the euthanization of an anomaly.

How do they wish to be perceived?: Competent, professional, compassionate

What are they proud of?: Empathy, scientific integrity

What are they ashamed of?: That she can't bring herself to leave the Foundation

What do they regret?: Letting her relationship with Viv drift into ambiguity and silence.

What is their legacy?: To be remembered as someone who tried to protect what couldn't protect itself.

Communication Style

Language(s) spoken: English; limited Spanish (Area-34), Latin (classification), and Cantonese (Viv)

Literacy: highly articulate, though occasionally rambly in speech. Her reports are meticulous but filled with side notes and questions.

Accent: Pacific Northwest American; soft-spoken but firm when sure

Vocabulary and cadence: Avoids scientific terms in casual conversation. Tends to pause mid-thought

Emotional range: Often controlled; emotion leaks through tone rather than volume

Body language: Hunches slightly when uncertain, opens up physically when teaching or explaining.

Visual cues or “tells”: Tucks hair behind ear when nervous, looks down when lying

Style of humor: Dry, understated; fond of absurdity. Uses as pressure valve.

Emotional range

How do they display and react to:

Affection: Gentle, quiet; often shown through small acts, not words

Joy: Soft smiles, laughter

Sadness: Withdraws, becomes even quieter

Fear: Rationalizes it; channels into overanalysis

Surprise: Blinks rapidly, "Huh"

Anger: Controlled, simmering — rarely explosive, but when she snaps, it's final

Disappointment: A sigh, a slow shake of the head

Praise: Deflects it modestly

Criticism: Takes it personally, even if undeserved

Irritation: Pinched expression, terse replies

Antagonism: Withdraws first, then retaliates with precision

Attacks: Defends others more fiercely than herself.
