Welp, here's the log, keep in mind PI is Paige, SS is me, Kit.
-- paraInquirer [PI] began pestering sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] at 17:36 --
[05:37] PI: KIT
[05:37] PI: KIT KIT KIT
[05:37] PI: KIT PLEASE BE AT YOUR COMPUTER
[05:37] PI: For the love of all things supernatural
[05:37] PI: PLEASE
[05:37] PI: BE
[05:37] PI: AT
[05:37] PI: YOUR
[05:37] PI: COMPUTER
[05:37] SS: Hey, Paige.
[05:37] PI: Oh, thank Heavens.
[05:37] PI: Okay.
[05:38] SS: What's up, sexy? XD
[05:38] SS: :P
[05:38] PI: Okay, are you /sure/ there wasn't a return address on that package you got that necklace in?
[05:38] SS: Oh, you saw that?
[05:38] PI: Yes.
[05:38] PI: Just now.
[05:39] SS: Yeah, I'm sure. I thought maybe Gwen or you sent it.
[05:39] PI: ... Do me a favor.
[05:39] SS: I was gonna ask you guys, actually
[05:39] SS: ?
[05:39] PI: Check again. Please. Just, one more time.
[05:39] SS: Okay.
[05:39] SS: Brb, let me look for it
[05:41] PI: ...
[05:41] PI: ... Please, please, please let there be a return address...
[05:42] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] has returned. --
[05:42] SS: So, like...
[05:42] SS: I found the package.
[05:42] PI: Yes, and...?
[05:42] SS: It's like one of those yellow envelope packages. Had bubble wrap and everything
[05:43] SS: No return address though.
[05:43] PI: ... None at all? You looked all over...?
[05:43] SS: There's not much to look over, Paige.
[05:43] PI: ... Okay, sorry, just... Please tell me you drew that symbol on the bottom...
[05:44] SS: What symbol?
[05:44] SS: You mean the cool one? I thought it would make like, a great henna tattoo or something...
[05:45] PI: Not the lizard. I mean the circle with the 'x' through it, on the bottom of the jar.
[05:45] PI: Please tell me you drew that.
[05:45] PI: Please.
[05:45] SS: Yeah, that one, like I said, it would make a great henna tattoo- No
[05:45] SS: I did not. O.o
[05:45] PI: ...
[05:45] SS: Why? What's wrong?
[05:46] PI: ... Crap. Crap, crap, crap...
[05:46] PI: ... You don't know what that is?
[05:46] SS: No. I swear it looks like a math symbol or something though.
[05:47] SS: Brb.
[05:48] PI: Kit... That's not a safe symbol. Bad things happen when that symbol shows up.
[05:48] SS: Back, sorry, my dog was barking at the window again, he's been barking at nothing lately. =_=
[05:49] PI: ...
[05:49] SS: Bad things?
[05:49] PI: I was /really/ hoping I wouldn't have to deal with this... ever. In my lifetime. I've been expressly trying to /avoid/ this situation.
[05:49] SS: ...
[05:49] SS: Paige
[05:49] SS: How long
[05:50] SS: did you stay up last night
[05:50] SS: reading creepypasta?
[05:50] PI: I'm being serious, Kit!
[05:50] SS: ... Or Homestuck. Or some other fiction-
[05:50] SS: In your lifetime?
[05:51] PI: ... I... I was just really, /really/ hoping this wouldn't happen to me...
[05:51] SS: You sound like this is of diiiiiiiiire conscequences. Did I just, like, set off the apocalypse?
[05:51] PI: Well...
[05:51] PI: Maybe not the /apocalypse/...
[05:51] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] sits down in front of PI for story time --
[05:51] PI: ... But some bad things could go down very, /very/ soon.
[05:52] SS: Paige.
[05:52] SS: Paige
[05:52] SS: PAIGE
[05:52] PI: What?
[05:52] SS: PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIGE
[05:52] PI: Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
[05:52] SS: *Pats your face*
[05:52] PI: ...
[05:52] PI: You think I'm joking.
[05:53] SS: .... No, I think,
[05:53] SS: Maybe you're being a little paranoid?
[05:53] SS: Over a silly circle?
[05:53] PI: ... That's... That's not just a silly circle, Kit... I swear.
[05:53] SS: Chill, Paige, like I said Gwen probably sent it to me.
[05:54] PI: ... I really hope so... Because, if not...
[05:54] PI: Oh.
[05:54] PI: Looks like I have a package in the mail room...
[05:54] PI: ... brb.
[05:54] SS: Alright
[05:58] SS: Paige?
[05:58] SS: Back yet?
[05:59] SS: ...
[06:02] SS: Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaige
[06:02] SS: Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaige
[06:02] PI: ... I'm... I'm back...
[06:02] SS: Oh good! :)
[06:02] SS: Crud, brb
[06:02] PI: Sorry it took me so long, I just...
[06:03] PI: ...
[06:03] PI: Please come back, Kit...
[06:06] PI: ... Kit...
[06:06] PI: Are you back yet?
[06:08] PI: Kit...
[06:09] PI: ... I am way too freaked out to open this thing by myself.
[06:12] SS: I'm back, sorry it took me so long
[06:12] SS: Huh, why?
[06:12] SS: What's wrong?
[06:12] PI: ... Guess what I just got.
[06:12] SS: ........................ IS IT SKYRIM?
[06:13] PI: ...
[06:13] PI: Kit, be serious.
[06:13] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] puts on serious face --
[06:13] SS: Yes, dear Paige?
[06:13] PI: I just got a package without a return address.
[06:14] SS: Which proves my point
[06:14] SS: That it might be one of our penpals. ._.
[06:14] PI: ... I really hope you're right, Kit.
[06:14] PI: ... I... I think I'll open it, now that you're here.
[06:14] PI: brb
[06:14] SS: Alright, I'll be there with you in spirit.
[06:14] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] cheers on --
[06:18] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] waits in the shrubs. --
[06:19] SS: .... I just realized, solo makes not only cups, but plates too...
[06:19] SS: Fascinating.
[06:21] SS: Like, seriously though. My mom just bought them.
[06:21] SS: And it's like.... "Damn."
[06:22] SS: ... Shutting up now.
[06:22] SS: Yup...
[06:22] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] whistles to self. --
[06:29] PI: ...
[06:29] PI: I'm back...
[06:29] SS: Welcome back. :D
[06:29] PI: Um... It... I got a necklace too...
[06:29] SS: Oh, cool!
[06:29] PI: But it looks a lot different from yours. It's not a bottle or anything. It's just a pendant.
[06:29] PI: It's... It's really pretty, actually.
[06:29] SS: Oh.
[06:30] SS: That's still cool. :)
[06:30] PI: I'll see if I can take a picture of it with my phone or something...
[06:30] SS: Alright.
[06:31] PI: ... Maybe you're right. Maybe Gwen did send these, and she wanted to be mysterious about it or something.
[06:31] SS: Either Gwen, or one of the others
[06:32] PI: Well, I doubt it was Sam. xD
[06:32] SS: Lol.
[06:32] SS: Sam is already cheap with mailing...
[06:32] SS: : P
[06:33] PI: CRAP
[06:33] PI: CRAP CRAP CRAP
[06:33] SS: See? You were going nuts over nothing- What?>
[06:33] SS: What?!
[06:33] SS: O.o
[06:33] PI: ...
[06:33] PI: I... It... That symbol...
[06:33] PI: It's...
[06:33] PI: It's on mine too...
[06:33] PI: It's on the back, and... I didn't notice it until now.
[06:33] PI: Okay, this seriously isn't funny.
[06:34] PI: We really need to find out who sent this to us.
[06:34] SS: Well, like I said, it was probably someone we know. ._.
[06:35] SS: If it has the same symbol, all the more likely
[06:35] PI: Well, one of our friends has a really bad idea of a joke.
[06:35] SS: I dunno, I like mine. O.o
[06:35] SS: I just need to get a new chain or something for it...
[06:35] PI: I... I like mine, too, but...
[06:35] PI: That /symbol/, Kit.
[06:36] SS: I still don't get why the jebus you're getting in a knot over it. O.o
[06:36] PI: I dunno if you'll remember, but a while back I sent you guys photocopies of few newspaper articles. The kidnappings?
[06:37] SS: Huh? Which ones?
[06:37] SS: You sent out a lot of things involving ghosts, serial killers, and other things, Paige
[06:37] PI: But this one was different!
[06:38] SS: Okay, Paige, do me a favor, please?
[06:38] SS: Like, I AM being serious here
[06:38] SS: Get up a moment.
[06:38] SS: Make yourself a cup of tea or hot chocolate or something.
[06:38] SS: Chill down, and then explain it to me, okay?
[06:38] PI: ... Okay... Okay, alright...
[06:39] SS: Because you sound really freaked out, for text...
[06:39] PI: ... Alright... I'll... I'll go get some tea or something...
[06:39] PI: brb
[06:39] SS: Alright. I'll brb too, I'm gonna make myself some tea, because I'm in the mood for it.
[06:47] PI: ... Okay.
[06:47] PI: I have tea...
[06:47] SS: Wow, back at the same time
[06:47] SS: Putting my my sugar now.
[06:47] PI: ... I will still never understand how you can drink tea with sugar...
[06:48] SS: FOUR PACKETS OF SUGAR, NONETHELESS
[06:49] PI: ...
[06:49] -- paraInquirer [PI] shudders. --
[06:49] PI: A-anyway. That's not important right now.
[06:49] SS: I don't get what's wrong with that. This sugar substitute isn't that strong.
[06:49] SS: Anyways
[06:49] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] sips tea, with ears ready --
[06:49] PI: Okay.
[06:50] PI: So when I said that this was different, I do mean that it was different.
[06:50] SS: Okay
[06:50] PI: This little installment of articles ended up being about twelve pages, and you guys refused to read that much.
[06:51] PI: I think this was about... five or six months ago.
[06:51] SS: That's a while ago too...
[06:52] PI: But is it starting to sound familiar...?
[06:52] PI: Even a little?
[06:52] SS: Um, god, I can't remember.
[06:52] PI: >?< Okay...
[06:53] SS: Refresh me a little more?
[06:53] PI: Anyway, whether or not you remember, I did send them. I remember getting stared at while I used the copy machine in the library.
[06:53] PI: There were at least twenty articles, all about kidnappings and disappearances.
[06:53] SS: Oh! I remember you mentioning something like THAT- Well, the library thing.
[06:54] SS: That people gave you funny looks...
[06:54] PI: ... Of course you remember that part and not the important part.
[06:54] PI: Anyways.
[06:54] SS: Sorry. S:
[06:54] PI: It's okay... I guess I'm a little agitated about the whole thing.
[06:55] SS: But anyways, Paige, why are you beating about the bush?
[06:56] PI: Some of the disappearances were eerily close to where some of us live. If I remember correctly, one of them was even in Sam's hometown. And they were all under mysterious circumstances.
[06:56] PI: And every last one of them had that symbol somewhere near where the victims were last seen.
[06:56] PI: In schools, in bus stations, in forests, in fields...
[06:56] SS: WAIT! I think I remember now!
[06:56] SS: Kinda
[06:57] SS: I remember only paying real attention to the Alabama one...
[06:57] SS: Sorry. >?.<
[06:57] PI: No, no, that's /perfectly/ alright!
[06:57] PI: At least you paid attention to one of them!
[06:57] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] shivers. --
[06:57] PI: So, /now/ do you see why I'm freaking out?
[06:58] PI: Sometimes the things I talk about are relevant to normal people.
[06:58] PI: I promise.
[06:58] SS: Wow. O.o
[06:58] SS: Maybe it's just like, a coincidence?
[06:59] PI: ...
[06:59] PI: That'd be the best-case scenario.
[06:59] SS: Maybe you're thinking too into a small little symbol. ):
[06:59] PI: But it's shown up twice now, Kit!
[06:59] SS: Well...
[06:59] SS: I dunno Paige.
[07:00] SS: Maybe it's like, one of the new internet memes?
[07:00] SS: Like, how people are all saying "Yolo"?
[07:00] SS: MAYBE IT MEANS SOMETHING COOL.
[07:00] PI: ... I... I mean... Maybe, but...
[07:00] PI: ... But why would you make a meme out of something so dangerous?
[07:01] SS: Well, like I said, it looks like a math symbol
[07:01] PI: Calculus doesn't usually a meme make.
[07:01] SS: It's like the reverse of a Buddhist sign becoming the Nazi's sign...
[07:01] PI: ...
[07:01] SS: Well, I don't know Paige. Dx
[07:02] PI: Comparing this situation to the Nazis really isn't helping my nerves.
[07:02] SS: ... Fffff- Did I say something I shouldn't?
[07:02] PI: I... Well...
[07:03] PI: Let's just... not bring up Nazis anymore.
[07:03] SS: I'm sorry, Paige. >?.<
[07:03] SS: Sorry.
[07:03] SS: Dx
[07:03] PI: No, no, it's okay.
[07:03] PI: I just...
[07:04] PI: I'm just running the worst-case scenario through my head... Y'know, like I tend to do when something paranormal might be involved.
[07:04] SS: Like that time I told you I thought my house might be haunted, and you jumped to demons?
[07:06] PI: ... I /know/ you had a demonic infestation. All the symptoms pointed to it.
[07:07] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] rolls eyes --
[07:07] SS: You told me to put crosses all over my house, and that if they turned upside down it was demons.
[07:07] SS: That didn't happen at all.
[07:08] SS: And those white candles only served to ALMOST burn down my house...
[07:09] PI: But what about the salt thing? The salt thing worked!
[07:10] SS: Sure, Paige, sure.
[07:10] PI: It did! You said that the atmosphere felt lighter after you did the salt thing!
[07:11] SS: .... Okay, I admit it felt better.... BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN LIKE A PLACEBO, PAIGE
[07:12] SS: My mind was playing tricks on me, I bet... :p
[07:12] PI: You just don't want to admit that I have legitimate research and proof behind my work.
[07:12] SS: So, doctor Paige
[07:12] SS: Do tell me
[07:12] SS: What is it this time?
[07:12] SS: Demons?
[07:12] SS: Cthuhlu?
[07:12] SS: Shadow people?
[07:13] SS: ... Jeff the Killer?
[07:13] PI: ... You know that Jeff is a medical impossibility.
[07:13] SS: I know
[07:13] SS: I'm humoring the poorly written story.
[07:13] PI: ... Oh.
[07:14] PI: Right.
[07:14] SS: ... My tea ran out.
[07:14] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] sobs --
[07:14] PI: I'm sorry...
[07:14] PI: Uh... You can go get more, if you want. I'll wait.
[07:14] SS: Nah, it's fine.
[07:15] PI: Um... Well... Of the things you guessed, the third is... the closest.
[07:15] PI: ... At least, according to most theories.
[07:15] SS: ... Cthuhlu?
[07:15] PI: No. Shadow people.
[07:15] SS: ... Excuse me while I...
[07:16] SS: Just laugh?
[07:16] PI: This isn't something to laugh at, Kit.
[07:16] SS: Okay, done laughing.
[07:16] SS: Shadow people, really Paige?
[07:16] PI: Or, well... Let me tweak the definition a little to fit this particular entity.
[07:16] PI: Not... shadow people, per se, but...
[07:17] SS: Oh hey, are one of those people from Kingdom Hearts gonna jump out at me now?
[07:17] SS: A paaaaaaaarticular entity.
[07:17] PI: It's not shadow people.
[07:17] PI: That was just your closest guess.
[07:17] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] strokes imaginary beard. --
[07:17] SS: Do go on, Paige.
[07:18] PI: What I think we might be dealing with is... an impossibly tall, humanoid figure. Some theories say he has multiple arms, some say he has no arms at all. He's known to roam in forests, and he's been found in folklore way back into German woodcuttings and even some cave drawings...
[07:19] PI: Have you ever heard of the Slenderman?
[07:19] SS: ...
[07:19] SS: Slenderman?
[07:19] PI: Yeah.
[07:19] SS: Hm.
[07:19] SS: Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[07:19] SS: HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN.
[07:19] SS: Nope.
[07:20] PI: It all fits, though! All of the articles I found were disappearances in wooded areas with mysterious circumstances!
[07:20] PI: Nothing was left behind, Kit! Nothing!
[07:20] PI: No human can do that.
[07:20] PI: And that symbol...
[07:20] SS: Paige.
[07:20] SS: Paige.
[07:21] SS: Are you talking about suity?
[07:21] PI: ...
[07:21] PI: ... Suity...?
[07:21] SS: Suity.
[07:21] SS: I think you mentioned him once...
[07:21] SS: I was only paying half attention.
[07:22] PI: ... Um... W-well... I tried to tell you all about him once, but...
[07:22] PI: None of you seemed like you were paying attention, really...
[07:22] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] shrugs --
[07:22] PI: But... in most depictions, he is described as wearing a suit, if that's what you mean...
[07:22] SS: I tried to pay attention, all I got was "wears a tie and a suit"
[07:23] SS: After that, I couldn't take it too seriously
[07:23] PI: ... At least humor me and tell me that you got that he was also
[07:23] PI: Oh, I don't know
[07:23] SS: I can't find guys in a business suit to be scary. ._.
[07:23] PI: EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
[07:23] SS: .................................. Maybeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
[07:23] PI: -.-
[07:23] SS: Didn't you say he was a pedophile, though?
[07:24] PI: I said no such thing!
[07:24] SS: .... Could have sworn you did
[07:24] SS: Something about liking little children
[07:24] SS: Which again, makes me OH so scared.
[07:24] PI: I just said that the first major report that was published in the paranormal community proposed the theory that the Slenderman has a tendency to take children as opposed to adults...
[07:24] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] is being sarcastic, btw --
[07:24] PI: But there's been all kinds of recent evidence that's suggested otherwise!
[07:25] PI: College students and older!
[07:25] SS: ... It's a good thing then, that I'm still not in college yet...
[07:25] PI: ...
[07:25] SS: I will be by fall, but...
[07:25] SS: :P
[07:25] PI: You're not taking me seriously at all, are you?
[07:25] SS: Paige.
[07:25] SS: I can't take a guy in a suit as scary
[07:25] PI: What?
[07:26] SS: I just can't
[07:26] SS: It's just... Humorous.
[07:26] PI: But he's not human, Kit!
[07:26] PI: HE HAS NO FACE, FOR GOD'S SAKE.
[07:26] SS: ...So does my stupid math teacher when I zone him out.
[07:26] PI: ...
[07:27] SS: Pssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, Paige, you reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally need to stop staying up late at night, reading these stories...
[07:27] SS: I read a few you sent, and could NOT sleep for like, 3 days.
[07:27] PI: ...
[07:27] PI: Really?
[07:27] SS: Chill, brofasa.
[07:27] SS: And yes, of course.
[07:27] PI: But... But I sent you really tame ones. ._.
[07:28] PI: Starters, even.
[07:28] SS: You're my friend, I actually DO try to read your stuff-
[07:28] SS: ....
[07:28] SS: I'm sorry I'm a pussy then.
[07:28] SS: Who can't sleep
[07:28] PI: N-No, that's not what I meant!
[07:28] PI: I...
[07:28] PI: Oh, gosh... I'm sorry, Kit... u.u
[07:28] SS: At the thought of a human murderer under my bed, licking my hand in place of my dog, who's hung in the bathroom.
[07:28] SS: Dripping blood
[07:29] PI: ... Oh, yeah... I did send you that one, didn't I...
[07:29] SS: Yes.
[07:29] PI: ...
[07:29] PI: Sorry. ><
[07:29] SS: I have a dog, so it hits home- It's alright
[07:29] SS: It was an interesting read
[07:29] SS: I DO like horror novels and things like that anyways, I'm just a scardy cat after the sun sets.
[07:30] SS: XD
[07:30] PI: ... But... But this isn't one of my silly creepypasta. I swear to you that I have compiled enough evidence to believe that the Slenderman is very, /very/ real.
[07:31] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] sighs --
[07:31] SS: Paige
[07:31] SS: You want me to believe
[07:31] SS: That a man in a fucking business suit
[07:31] SS: would send us fucking NECKLACES?
[07:32] SS: Of all things?
[07:32] SS: That's
[07:32] SS: just.
[07:32] SS: silly.
[07:32] PI: ... I... I don't know why he would do it, but...
[07:32] PI: I don't know, Kit!
[07:32] PI: Maybe he has plans or something!
[07:33] PI: He's proven himself to be very intelligent, especially as far as paranormal creatures go.
[07:33] SS: ... I can see it now, the faceless loser using a sharpie to draw that symbol on a tiny ass bottle
[07:33] PI: ...
[07:33] SS: WITHOUT EYES TO SEE HOW PERFECT HIS CIRCLE IS, BTW.
[07:33] PI: I really doubt he did it himself.
[07:34] SS: Paige.
[07:34] SS: Can we change the subject, please?
[07:34] PI: It was probably one of his human assistants.
[07:34] PI: He has those too, y'know.
[07:34] SS: Please?
[07:34] SS: Paige
[07:34] PI: ...
[07:34] PI: But...
[07:34] SS: Please?
[07:34] SS: It's silly, Paige.
