RIP Lily
Guys, I was just informed Lily passed away... Details are iffy, but I have a chatlog between myself and her apparent college room mate..
Crying.
I don't want to hear another word about Slenderman, or suicides, or anything like that right now, if anyone values my fucking sanity...

[10:14] SS: oh my god.
[10:14] SS: LILY
[10:14] SS: Finally!
[10:14] SS: I've been waiting forever for you to get on.
[10:14] AA: um
[10:14] SS: I need to ask you something, Lil'...
[10:14] AA: wait, im not lily
[10:14] SS: I need to know-
[10:14] SS: ...
[10:14] SS: Who are you?
[10:14] AA: this is her roommate
[10:15] SS: I swear to god, if you're-
[10:15] SS: Oh
[10:15] AA: okay this is kind of weird but--wait, if i'm who?
[10:15] SS: Nothing
[10:15] SS: I thought you might be some hacker...
[10:15] AA: oh ok
[10:15] SS: ... Well, I guess you ARE a hacker, but you know Lily
[10:15] AA: haha yeah
[10:16] SS: Um... This is awkward. ._.
[10:16] AA: okay this is kind of awkward because with the amount of preparation lils did i almost expected you to know
[10:16] SS: .... Prep for what?
[10:17] SS: What's going on?
[10:17] AA: wow this is kind of weird to do over an im client
[10:17] AA: lils died last week
[10:17] SS: ...
[10:17] SS: Hahaha, I get it.
[10:18] SS: Late April Fools, right Lily?
[10:18] SS: Good one
[10:18] SS: So like, I was meaning to ask you, Lily...
[10:18] AA: that looks really emotionless in text, i mean, i'm really sorry...
[10:18] AA: no, seriously
[10:18] AA: this isn't a joke
[10:19] AA: she left kind of a list of people she wanted me to contact after it happened and you were on it
[10:19] AA: i didnt get to it until now cause there was a whole investigation and stuff
[10:20] AA: and the house has been packed with cops and its been hella stressful trying to get ahold of her family and professors and shit. i dont know why she wanted me to do this stuff
[10:21] SS: ...
[10:21] SS: She had a list-
[10:22] AA: of people, yeah
[10:22] SS: Did she...
[10:22] SS: How did...
[10:22] SS: ... It wasn't an accident
[10:22] SS: Was it?
[10:22] AA: um...
[10:22] SS: ...
[10:22] AA: i dont know if her family would really want me telling anyone...
[10:22] SS: She had a list, though.
[10:23] SS: Which means she knew this was going to happen?
[10:23] SS: ... I think I'm going to throw up. Can you hold on a second, please?
[10:23] SS: Please...
[10:23] AA: well, i wouldn't really say she knew it was going to happen
[10:23] AA: lily was really paranoid, wasn't she?
[10:23] AA: i mean, i know she was--okay
[10:25] SS: Back
[10:25] SS: Yeah, she was paranoid, but I didn't think she'd keep a list...
[10:25] AA: lils was really paranoid
[10:25] AA: REALLY paranoid
[10:26] SS: I know. She said she was getting better, though...
[10:26] AA: i mean, i didnt really mess with her too much but i think she needed help
[10:26] AA: she had been getting worse for a couple weeks
[10:26] SS: Oh...
[10:26] SS: Oh god.
[10:27] SS: I shoudl have... I should have talked to her more
[10:27] SS: I should have. >.<
[10:27] AA: she probably wouldnt have said anything. she never said anything to me, really
[10:27] AA: about it
[10:28] AA: i just kind of happened upon this list and figured i owed it to her to do what she wanted
[10:28] SS: Excuse me if it's not alright, but...
[10:28] SS: Who else exactly is on the list?
[10:29] SS: I just... Need to know
[10:29] AA: uh
[10:29] AA: wait, let me get it
[10:33] AA: okay

[10:34] SS: Um...
[10:34] SS: I can tell them for you
[10:34] SS: ... Was there anything on the list, besides informing us?
[10:35] SS: Like, did she have anything else to say?
[10:35] AA: well, uh, i'd kind of like to just because she seemed to want me to...
[10:36] AA: er
[10:37] AA: i dunno if i should really say
[10:37] SS: Please
[10:37] SS: Tell me...
[10:37] AA: ill tell the others, lils wrote this directly to me
[10:38] AA: nothing that could really be directed at you guys
[10:38] AA: she just doodled some weird shit on it i dont know
[10:38] SS: ... Are you sure she didn't mean for that to be sent to us?
[10:38] AA: why would she tell one of you to contact yourselves?
[10:38] AA: yourself*
[10:39] SS: ... That's all she wrote?
[10:39] SS: Just "Contact these internet bros of mine."
[10:39] SS: That's all?
[10:39] SS: No "
[10:39] SS: No "Hey guys, I'm gonna do this," ect?

[10:42] AA: she wrote it on the back of some packet thing she got in the mail from one of you
[10:43] AA: dealing with missing persons
[10:43] AA: idk she is always fucking writing on things
[10:43] SS: ....
[10:43] SS: Oh...

[10:43] SS: Please?
[10:44] AA: uh
[10:44] AA: didnt you call lil on the phone a lot?
[10:44] SS: Yeah... Is it a shared phoneline between you two, then?
[10:45] AA: yeah

Lily, what happened to you?
-Kit
Regarding recent events:
... Hello, followers. This is Paige.
As those of you who have been paying attention to the Twitter account that my friends and I share know, there have been some abnormal occurrences as of late regarding the necklaces that Kit and I received.
I suppose the first of it was when I noticed that the only tree on my campus that hasn't bloomed for spring is a very tall, spindly tree that grows right next to my dorm. A distorted photograph of my dorm and that tree was posted soon afterward by someone other than myself or Kit.
I took this as the warning that it was likely intended to be, and immediately went to burn the necklace. While I was gone, it seems Kit's necklace broke. Soon afterward, she awoke from a nap to find a symbol smeared along her wrist in blood, thankfully not her own.
She also found a note in her laptop that read "Now do you see what you have done?" on one side and "Don't lie anymore either" on the other.
Soon after that, I found myself waking up from a nap that I never elected to take, that necklace burning in my hand like it had just been pulled out of the fire. I ended up with a veritable brand on my hand of that same symbol Kit had on her wrist.
The most recent development is of someone taking a picture of Kit while she was sleeping and posting it without her permission...
It seems that two proxies have begun to communicate with us as well, one speaking with '2's replacing his/her 's'es and calling me 'dove', and the other speaking with '1's replacing his/her 'i's and calling Kit 'lizard'.
I assume this is a reference to the necklaces that we have been given by the Slenderman for some reason or another... It is the Slenderman. I know that it is. It can be nothing else. Kit is just being very, very stubborn about it.
... Anyway... Kit and I just had this conversation. I feel that it is relevant enough to share with the rest of you.

[07:37] SS: Paige.
[07:37] SS: Oh my god, Paige
[07:37] PI: Kit.
[07:37] SS: Paige, please, please...
[07:37] PI: Kit, calm down, alright?
[07:37] PI: I know I'm the last person who should be saying so, but...
[07:37] SS: Tell me
[07:38] SS: this is a fucking joke
[07:38] SS: Please
[07:38] SS: Please
[07:38] SS: Oh god, please
[07:38] PI: Kit, stop.
[07:38] PI: Deep breaths.
[07:38] PI: Freaking out isn't going to keep Him away.
[07:38] SS: udjighuighdjjdsgsdj are you still on it being Slenderman?
[07:39] PI: ...
[07:39] SS: SOME FUCKING STALKER IS TAKING PICTURES OF ME WHILE I SLEEP
[07:39] SS: gsdughudg
[07:39] PI: How could you not believe me yet?
[07:39] PI: It's so obvious!
[07:39] SS: Because, why the fuck
[07:39] SS: would they talk to us on the twitter?
[07:39] SS: DID YOU SEE WHAT THEY WROTE?
[07:39] PI: YES, I SAW WHAT THEY WROTE, OKAY?!
[07:40] PI: IT'S NOT HELPING MY NERVES EITHER.
[07:40] PI: ...
[07:40] SS: I've seen seeing
[07:40] SS: *been
[07:40] SS: seeing
[07:40] SS: things
[07:40] SS: in the corner of my eye, Paige
[07:40] SS: I
[07:40] SS: I've been freaking out this past week or so...
[07:41] SS: I can't sleep
[07:41] SS: I have been falling asleep in the middle of the day, instead, because at night I'm up, with my lights on, reading a book and trying to ignore...
[07:41] SS: I'm scared, Paige
[07:42] PI: ... I know. I'm scared, too.
[07:42] PI: I'm terrified.
[07:42] PI: I've seen this sort of thing happen to people... I've read blogs, watched investigations...
[07:42] PI: He drives people to the very edge of their sanity.
[07:42] SS: Paige...
[07:42] SS: No.
[07:42] PI: Yes.
[07:42] SS: No, I can't deal with that
[07:42] SS: No
[07:42] SS: NO
[07:42] PI: Kit, just
[07:43] PI: Listen to me for a second.
[07:43] SS: I don't WANT to deal with that
[07:43] SS: Please, no.
[07:43] SS: Oh god, oh god..
[07:43] PI: I don't want to deal with it either.
[07:43] SS: PAIGE.
[07:43] PI: That's why we're not going to let Him get to us!
[07:43] SS: A SHADOW JUST MOVED OUTSIDE MY WINDOW
[07:43] SS: PAIGE.
[07:43] SS: Dx
[07:43] PI: Move away from windows.
[07:43] PI: Windows aren't smart.
[07:43] SS: I can't
[07:43] SS: I have two in my room, Paige
[07:43] SS: I can't
[07:44] SS: I...
[07:44] PI: Then go somewhere else. Draw the curtains. Something.
[07:44] SS: I'll close the blinds
[07:44] SS: Back
[07:44] SS: Oh my god...
[07:44] SS: Please, just...
[07:44] SS: ... Are there any stories
[07:44] SS: where everyone is alright?
[07:44] SS: Please tell me
[07:44] SS: there are
[07:44] PI: ...
[07:45] SS: I don't want to-
[07:45] PI: ... There are stories where people have gotten away.
[07:45] PI: Runners.
[07:45] SS: I can't
[07:45] PI: People have survived this, Kit, and we're going to survive too.
[07:45] SS: I can't run, Paige
[07:45] SS: This is my home
[07:45] SS: If I run...
[07:45] SS: I can't
[07:46] SS: I just can't
[07:46] PI: Kit, we may not have any other choice.
[07:46] PI: This isn't just some silly residual haunting. This is the Slenderman. We...
[07:46] SS: I only have 1000$ to my name, I'm jobless, how the fuck would I put up with that?
[07:46] SS: 1000$ would last me, what, a week of running?
[07:46] SS: I can't run Paige
[07:46] SS: I REFUSE to run
[07:47] PI: ...
[07:47] SS: I still don't believe it's fucking Slenderman
[07:47] PI: ... We'll have to figure out a wa--
[07:47] SS: I will sit here, armed with my dad's gun
[07:47] SS: and wait it out
[07:47] SS: And if he or she, or it comes into my room
[07:47] SS: I will shoot them in the face
[07:47] PI: Kit, of course it's the Slenderman! All of the signs are here and denying it will not help anything.
[07:47] SS: NO
[07:47] PI: ... Denying it is the first stage, Kit.
[07:48] SS: How do you know it's not somebody just obsessed with the fucking myth or something?
[07:48] SS: YOU DON'T KNOW THAT, PAIGE
[07:48] PI: People who accept it and work around it always survive longer. It's a proven fact.
[07:48] PI: It's not a myth.
[07:48] SS: ... Hahaha, myth statistics.
[07:48] SS: It is a myth
[07:48] PI: I've been trying to tell you all this for years now.
[07:48] PI: Years.
[07:48] PI: It's not a myth.
[07:48] SS: ...
[07:49] SS: I'm crying, Paige
[07:49] SS: I hope you know that
[07:49] PI: ... K... Kit, please don't... Don't cry...
[07:49] PI: I'm trying to help.
[07:49] PI: I am.
[07:49] PI: I always have been trying to help.
[07:50] PI: I've spent a good majority of my life trying to warn ALL of you about things.
[07:50] SS: With what?
[07:50] PI: I've been trying to PREVENT this sort of thing.
[07:50] SS: Did you KNOW this would happen?
[07:50] PI: Slenderman is just one of the things that I've been trying to tell you about, but NONE OF YOU HAVE EVER LISTENED.
[07:50] SS: Wasn't one of the things you sent me, that stupid theory that, if you dig in deeper into it, the more likely you are to become a victim?
[07:50] SS: The Tulip theory, or whatever you called it
[07:50] PI: ...
[07:51] SS: Well?
[07:51] SS: I don't believe
[07:51] SS: So why is he here, if it's Slenderman?
[07:51] PI: ... Tulpa. The Tulpa theory.
[07:51] PI: ...
[07:51] SS: Paige
[07:51] PI: I've always felt it's better to be prepared.
[07:51] SS: Paige.
[07:51] PI: ... I don't know why He's here, okay?
[07:52] PI: Nobody ever knows.
[07:52] SS: *sighs*
[07:52] SS: so like...
[07:52] SS: Since you're the expert
[07:52] SS: Besides running
[07:52] SS: How the fuck do I get rid of this fucker?
[07:53] SS: IF it really is fucking Slenderman or whatever.
[07:53] SS: ... Fuck it, I'm not even going to call him Slenderman
[07:53] SS: His name is now John Doe
[07:53] SS: And I refuse to ever say the word Slenderman again
[07:54] PI: ... People have tried to fight Him, but He's far stronger than humans...
[07:54] PI: ... I...
[07:54] PI: ... I won't lie to you, Kit. I don't know how to get rid of Him.
[07:54] PI: Nobody knows how.
[07:54] SS: People have tried to fight John and lost. *writes down in memo*
[07:55] SS: .... Didn't you mention paying him to go away or something?
[07:55] PI: ... That's a stupid joke theory, and it has no place in a serious situation.
[07:55] SS: ... I'm still going to tape 20$ to my door with a note saying to fucking leave
[07:55] PI: ...
[07:56] SS: "Hi motherfucker. Take this twenty, and get the fuck out of Florida."
[07:56] SS: Sounds good to me.
[07:56] PI: At this point, Kit... Do what you want. If running isn't an option for you, then we're wandering into very dangerous territory.
[07:56] PI: Why not possibly make Him even angrier?
[07:56] PI: Sounds like a great idea.
[07:56] SS: Can you run, Paige?
[07:56] SS: Can you run?
[07:57] PI: ...
[07:57] PI: I...
[07:57] SS: You're in college.
[07:57] SS: Right?
[07:57] PI: ... I am... but if push came to shove, Kit, I have a car.
[07:57] PI: I'm not going to underestimate Him.
[07:57] SS: I don't.
[07:58] PI: That's what busses are for.
[07:58] PI: ... I'm just...
[07:58] SS: But I can't run
[07:58] SS: Paige.
[07:58] PI: Fine, fine... I guess we can think of something else... I just...
[07:58] SS: I'm going to be going to a comunity college next semester.
[07:58] PI: *sighs*
[07:58] SS: I can't run.
[07:59] SS: I have a future ahead of me, Paige
[07:59] PI: I highly doubt He cares about that.
[07:59] SS: I can't let this fucker
[07:59] SS: interfere
[07:59] SS: with my life
[07:59] SS: Because running is the same thing as quitting my life.
[07:59] PI: Don't you understand, Kit?
[07:59] PI: We are being followed by the Slenderman.
[07:59] PI: Life stops when you are followed by the Slenderman.
[08:00] SS: No.
[08:00] PI: Priority becomes survival.
[08:00] SS: I will not let JOHN interfere with my life
[08:00] SS: I refuse
[08:00] PI: ...
[08:00] SS: I will survive, though.
[08:00] SS: I am a second generation American, Paige
[08:01] SS: My family comes from conditions where you need to learn how to survive
[08:01] SS: I will survive, Paige.
[08:01] PI: ... If you manage to survive the Slenderman without running and while maintaining a normal life... I daresay you'd be the first.
[08:01] SS: I will NOT let my life be interfered with, and I will NOT let my life be taken
[08:02] SS: ... Paige, you're so pessimistic
[08:02] SS: and that's bullshit
[08:02] SS: What about those guys you mentioned, in Alabama?
[08:02] SS: Aren't they still alive?
[08:02] PI: Kit, He already has proxies trained on us.
[08:02] PI: They know where we are.
[08:02] PI: They know where we sleep.
[08:02] PI: This is terrifying, and I'm--
[08:02] PI: ...
[08:02] SS: ... What the fuck is a proxy?
[08:02] PI: Sorry...
[08:02] PI: I... Okay, one question at a time...
[08:03] SS: What about those other guys?
[08:03] PI: The Alabama case is not yet closed.
[08:03] SS: Like, like-
[08:03] SS: Wasn't there that one guy in Florida too?
[08:03] SS: Or, or-
[08:03] PI: Yes.
[08:03] SS: I KNOW THERE WERE OTHERS
[08:03] SS: And you said they were still alive!
[08:03] PI: But what you don't understand is that these people are running.
[08:04] SS: no
[08:04] SS: you said some of them weren't...
[08:04] PI: I have a feeling the Florida case will end in the victim being hollowed out.
[08:04] SS: ....
[08:04] SS: Hollowed?
[08:04] PI: And the topic comes back to proxies.
[08:05] PI: "Hollowed" is a term often used when Slenderman turns a human into one of His assistants. A proxy.
[08:05] PI: Someone who serves Slenderman's will.
[08:05] SS: Hahahaha.
[08:05] PI: As to how much free will of their own these proxies have, I'm not sure...
[08:05] PI: No one has a set theory that everyone agrees with.
[08:06] PI: Why are you laughing?
[08:06] SS: See, that's one of the things that makes me not want to believe John Doe's myth.
[08:06] SS: Because
[08:06] SS: Jesus fucking christ, if he's so powerful, why does he need human servants, Paige?
[08:06] SS: I'm a mystery and sci-fi girl too, but I don't blindly believe myths
[08:06] PI: He doesn't technically need them.
[08:06] SS: I question them
[08:06] PI: He just chooses to have them.
[08:07] SS: No
[08:07] SS: No, Paige
[08:07] PI: Yes.
[08:07] PI: Kit, I have no clue how you could possibly still think this is a myth.
[08:07] SS: A powerful creature would not choose that, unless they need them, for some reason
[08:08] PI: He probably uses them to blend in with the rest of society... get closer to His targets.
[08:08] PI: ... Besides, Kit.
[08:08] PI: Even God has angels.
[08:09] SS: God's too fucking lazy on a cloud to come down here himself
[08:09] SS: :P
[08:09] SS: John Doe must be so fucking lazy, then.
[08:09] PI: ... I would be more apt to use 'confident'... or perhaps 'wise'... because He knows the inevitable.
[08:10] PI: He doesn't need to come after us because He knows His proxies will bring us to Him...
[08:10] PI: Or we will come to Him of our own accord.
[08:10] PI: ...
[08:10] PI: M-my point is...
[08:10] SS: ...
[08:11] PI: He has proxies trained on us. The ones who posted the statuses with 1s and 2s on the twitter can't be anything other than proxies, at this point.
[08:11] SS: How do you know?
[08:12] PI: Kit, I woke up from a nap that I didn't choose to take with a symbol burned into my hand. Someone took a picture of me during this involuntary "nap" and posted it. That same person took a picture of my dorm and a tree by it with the same sort of distortion.
[08:13] PI: Distortion in photographs and videos is common for those targeted by the Slenderman.
[08:13] PI: They often show up near His proxies as well.
[08:13] SS: Ugh
[08:13] SS: Paige
[08:13] SS: I need to go, like, now...
[08:13] PI: ...
[08:13] PI: Alright.
[08:13] SS: No, no, it's not you
[08:13] SS: It's
[08:13] SS: a family thing
[08:14] PI: ... Yeah, I... I understand...
[08:14] PI: ... I'm just...
[08:14] PI: I'm so sorry, Kit.
[08:14] PI: I'm so, so, /so/ sorry.
[08:14] PI: I'm probably the one who dragged all of us into this.
[08:14] PI: You're right. The Tulpa theory.
[08:14] PI: I just...
[08:14] PI: ... I wanted to know all I could.
[08:15] PI: Just in case.
[08:15] PI: ... I see where that got me now...
-- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] changed their mood to OFFLINE --
... I truly am sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen. Kit, Sam, Gwen, Lily... I'm so, so sorry... I just pray that He will lose interest in us soon... and that I haven't inadvertently done just what I was trying to prevent.
As those of you who have been paying attention to the Twitter account that my friends and I share know, there have been some abnormal occurrences as of late regarding the necklaces that Kit and I received.
 |
| The tree outside my dorm. |
 |
| Kit's Symbol |
She also found a note in her laptop that read "Now do you see what you have done?" on one side and "Don't lie anymore either" on the other.
 |
| Then my hand's symbol. |
The most recent development is of someone taking a picture of Kit while she was sleeping and posting it without her permission...
I assume this is a reference to the necklaces that we have been given by the Slenderman for some reason or another... It is the Slenderman. I know that it is. It can be nothing else. Kit is just being very, very stubborn about it.
... Anyway... Kit and I just had this conversation. I feel that it is relevant enough to share with the rest of you.

[07:37] SS: Paige.
[07:37] SS: Oh my god, Paige
[07:37] PI: Kit.
[07:37] SS: Paige, please, please...
[07:37] PI: Kit, calm down, alright?
[07:37] PI: I know I'm the last person who should be saying so, but...
[07:37] SS: Tell me
[07:38] SS: this is a fucking joke
[07:38] SS: Please
[07:38] SS: Please
[07:38] SS: Oh god, please
[07:38] PI: Kit, stop.
[07:38] PI: Deep breaths.
[07:38] PI: Freaking out isn't going to keep Him away.
[07:38] SS: udjighuighdjjdsgsdj are you still on it being Slenderman?
[07:39] PI: ...
[07:39] SS: SOME FUCKING STALKER IS TAKING PICTURES OF ME WHILE I SLEEP
[07:39] SS: gsdughudg
[07:39] PI: How could you not believe me yet?
[07:39] PI: It's so obvious!
[07:39] SS: Because, why the fuck
[07:39] SS: would they talk to us on the twitter?
[07:39] SS: DID YOU SEE WHAT THEY WROTE?
[07:39] PI: YES, I SAW WHAT THEY WROTE, OKAY?!
[07:40] PI: IT'S NOT HELPING MY NERVES EITHER.
[07:40] PI: ...
[07:40] SS: I've seen seeing
[07:40] SS: *been
[07:40] SS: seeing
[07:40] SS: things
[07:40] SS: in the corner of my eye, Paige
[07:40] SS: I
[07:40] SS: I've been freaking out this past week or so...
[07:41] SS: I can't sleep
[07:41] SS: I have been falling asleep in the middle of the day, instead, because at night I'm up, with my lights on, reading a book and trying to ignore...
[07:41] SS: I'm scared, Paige
[07:42] PI: ... I know. I'm scared, too.
[07:42] PI: I'm terrified.
[07:42] PI: I've seen this sort of thing happen to people... I've read blogs, watched investigations...
[07:42] PI: He drives people to the very edge of their sanity.
[07:42] SS: Paige...
[07:42] SS: No.
[07:42] PI: Yes.
[07:42] SS: No, I can't deal with that
[07:42] SS: No
[07:42] SS: NO
[07:42] PI: Kit, just
[07:43] PI: Listen to me for a second.
[07:43] SS: I don't WANT to deal with that
[07:43] SS: Please, no.
[07:43] SS: Oh god, oh god..
[07:43] PI: I don't want to deal with it either.
[07:43] SS: PAIGE.
[07:43] PI: That's why we're not going to let Him get to us!
[07:43] SS: A SHADOW JUST MOVED OUTSIDE MY WINDOW
[07:43] SS: PAIGE.
[07:43] SS: Dx
[07:43] PI: Move away from windows.
[07:43] PI: Windows aren't smart.
[07:43] SS: I can't
[07:43] SS: I have two in my room, Paige
[07:43] SS: I can't
[07:44] SS: I...
[07:44] PI: Then go somewhere else. Draw the curtains. Something.
[07:44] SS: I'll close the blinds
[07:44] SS: Back
[07:44] SS: Oh my god...
[07:44] SS: Please, just...
[07:44] SS: ... Are there any stories
[07:44] SS: where everyone is alright?
[07:44] SS: Please tell me
[07:44] SS: there are
[07:44] PI: ...
[07:45] SS: I don't want to-
[07:45] PI: ... There are stories where people have gotten away.
[07:45] PI: Runners.
[07:45] SS: I can't
[07:45] PI: People have survived this, Kit, and we're going to survive too.
[07:45] SS: I can't run, Paige
[07:45] SS: This is my home
[07:45] SS: If I run...
[07:45] SS: I can't
[07:46] SS: I just can't
[07:46] PI: Kit, we may not have any other choice.
[07:46] PI: This isn't just some silly residual haunting. This is the Slenderman. We...
[07:46] SS: I only have 1000$ to my name, I'm jobless, how the fuck would I put up with that?
[07:46] SS: 1000$ would last me, what, a week of running?
[07:46] SS: I can't run Paige
[07:46] SS: I REFUSE to run
[07:47] PI: ...
[07:47] SS: I still don't believe it's fucking Slenderman
[07:47] PI: ... We'll have to figure out a wa--
[07:47] SS: I will sit here, armed with my dad's gun
[07:47] SS: and wait it out
[07:47] SS: And if he or she, or it comes into my room
[07:47] SS: I will shoot them in the face
[07:47] PI: Kit, of course it's the Slenderman! All of the signs are here and denying it will not help anything.
[07:47] SS: NO
[07:47] PI: ... Denying it is the first stage, Kit.
[07:48] SS: How do you know it's not somebody just obsessed with the fucking myth or something?
[07:48] SS: YOU DON'T KNOW THAT, PAIGE
[07:48] PI: People who accept it and work around it always survive longer. It's a proven fact.
[07:48] PI: It's not a myth.
[07:48] SS: ... Hahaha, myth statistics.
[07:48] SS: It is a myth
[07:48] PI: I've been trying to tell you all this for years now.
[07:48] PI: Years.
[07:48] PI: It's not a myth.
[07:48] SS: ...
[07:49] SS: I'm crying, Paige
[07:49] SS: I hope you know that
[07:49] PI: ... K... Kit, please don't... Don't cry...
[07:49] PI: I'm trying to help.
[07:49] PI: I am.
[07:49] PI: I always have been trying to help.
[07:50] PI: I've spent a good majority of my life trying to warn ALL of you about things.
[07:50] SS: With what?
[07:50] PI: I've been trying to PREVENT this sort of thing.
[07:50] SS: Did you KNOW this would happen?
[07:50] PI: Slenderman is just one of the things that I've been trying to tell you about, but NONE OF YOU HAVE EVER LISTENED.
[07:50] SS: Wasn't one of the things you sent me, that stupid theory that, if you dig in deeper into it, the more likely you are to become a victim?
[07:50] SS: The Tulip theory, or whatever you called it
[07:50] PI: ...
[07:51] SS: Well?
[07:51] SS: I don't believe
[07:51] SS: So why is he here, if it's Slenderman?
[07:51] PI: ... Tulpa. The Tulpa theory.
[07:51] PI: ...
[07:51] SS: Paige
[07:51] PI: I've always felt it's better to be prepared.
[07:51] SS: Paige.
[07:51] PI: ... I don't know why He's here, okay?
[07:52] PI: Nobody ever knows.
[07:52] SS: *sighs*
[07:52] SS: so like...
[07:52] SS: Since you're the expert
[07:52] SS: Besides running
[07:52] SS: How the fuck do I get rid of this fucker?
[07:53] SS: IF it really is fucking Slenderman or whatever.
[07:53] SS: ... Fuck it, I'm not even going to call him Slenderman
[07:53] SS: His name is now John Doe
[07:53] SS: And I refuse to ever say the word Slenderman again
[07:54] PI: ... People have tried to fight Him, but He's far stronger than humans...
[07:54] PI: ... I...
[07:54] PI: ... I won't lie to you, Kit. I don't know how to get rid of Him.
[07:54] PI: Nobody knows how.
[07:54] SS: People have tried to fight John and lost. *writes down in memo*
[07:55] SS: .... Didn't you mention paying him to go away or something?
[07:55] PI: ... That's a stupid joke theory, and it has no place in a serious situation.
[07:55] SS: ... I'm still going to tape 20$ to my door with a note saying to fucking leave
[07:55] PI: ...
[07:56] SS: "Hi motherfucker. Take this twenty, and get the fuck out of Florida."
[07:56] SS: Sounds good to me.
[07:56] PI: At this point, Kit... Do what you want. If running isn't an option for you, then we're wandering into very dangerous territory.
[07:56] PI: Why not possibly make Him even angrier?
[07:56] PI: Sounds like a great idea.
[07:56] SS: Can you run, Paige?
[07:56] SS: Can you run?
[07:57] PI: ...
[07:57] PI: I...
[07:57] SS: You're in college.
[07:57] SS: Right?
[07:57] PI: ... I am... but if push came to shove, Kit, I have a car.
[07:57] PI: I'm not going to underestimate Him.
[07:57] SS: I don't.
[07:58] PI: That's what busses are for.
[07:58] PI: ... I'm just...
[07:58] SS: But I can't run
[07:58] SS: Paige.
[07:58] PI: Fine, fine... I guess we can think of something else... I just...
[07:58] SS: I'm going to be going to a comunity college next semester.
[07:58] PI: *sighs*
[07:58] SS: I can't run.
[07:59] SS: I have a future ahead of me, Paige
[07:59] PI: I highly doubt He cares about that.
[07:59] SS: I can't let this fucker
[07:59] SS: interfere
[07:59] SS: with my life
[07:59] SS: Because running is the same thing as quitting my life.
[07:59] PI: Don't you understand, Kit?
[07:59] PI: We are being followed by the Slenderman.
[07:59] PI: Life stops when you are followed by the Slenderman.
[08:00] SS: No.
[08:00] PI: Priority becomes survival.
[08:00] SS: I will not let JOHN interfere with my life
[08:00] SS: I refuse
[08:00] PI: ...
[08:00] SS: I will survive, though.
[08:00] SS: I am a second generation American, Paige
[08:01] SS: My family comes from conditions where you need to learn how to survive
[08:01] SS: I will survive, Paige.
[08:01] PI: ... If you manage to survive the Slenderman without running and while maintaining a normal life... I daresay you'd be the first.
[08:01] SS: I will NOT let my life be interfered with, and I will NOT let my life be taken
[08:02] SS: ... Paige, you're so pessimistic
[08:02] SS: and that's bullshit
[08:02] SS: What about those guys you mentioned, in Alabama?
[08:02] SS: Aren't they still alive?
[08:02] PI: Kit, He already has proxies trained on us.
[08:02] PI: They know where we are.
[08:02] PI: They know where we sleep.
[08:02] PI: This is terrifying, and I'm--
[08:02] PI: ...
[08:02] SS: ... What the fuck is a proxy?
[08:02] PI: Sorry...
[08:02] PI: I... Okay, one question at a time...
[08:03] SS: What about those other guys?
[08:03] PI: The Alabama case is not yet closed.
[08:03] SS: Like, like-
[08:03] SS: Wasn't there that one guy in Florida too?
[08:03] SS: Or, or-
[08:03] PI: Yes.
[08:03] SS: I KNOW THERE WERE OTHERS
[08:03] SS: And you said they were still alive!
[08:03] PI: But what you don't understand is that these people are running.
[08:04] SS: no
[08:04] SS: you said some of them weren't...
[08:04] PI: I have a feeling the Florida case will end in the victim being hollowed out.
[08:04] SS: ....
[08:04] SS: Hollowed?
[08:04] PI: And the topic comes back to proxies.
[08:05] PI: "Hollowed" is a term often used when Slenderman turns a human into one of His assistants. A proxy.
[08:05] PI: Someone who serves Slenderman's will.
[08:05] SS: Hahahaha.
[08:05] PI: As to how much free will of their own these proxies have, I'm not sure...
[08:05] PI: No one has a set theory that everyone agrees with.
[08:06] PI: Why are you laughing?
[08:06] SS: See, that's one of the things that makes me not want to believe John Doe's myth.
[08:06] SS: Because
[08:06] SS: Jesus fucking christ, if he's so powerful, why does he need human servants, Paige?
[08:06] SS: I'm a mystery and sci-fi girl too, but I don't blindly believe myths
[08:06] PI: He doesn't technically need them.
[08:06] SS: I question them
[08:06] PI: He just chooses to have them.
[08:07] SS: No
[08:07] SS: No, Paige
[08:07] PI: Yes.
[08:07] PI: Kit, I have no clue how you could possibly still think this is a myth.
[08:07] SS: A powerful creature would not choose that, unless they need them, for some reason
[08:08] PI: He probably uses them to blend in with the rest of society... get closer to His targets.
[08:08] PI: ... Besides, Kit.
[08:08] PI: Even God has angels.
[08:09] SS: God's too fucking lazy on a cloud to come down here himself
[08:09] SS: :P
[08:09] SS: John Doe must be so fucking lazy, then.
[08:09] PI: ... I would be more apt to use 'confident'... or perhaps 'wise'... because He knows the inevitable.
[08:10] PI: He doesn't need to come after us because He knows His proxies will bring us to Him...
[08:10] PI: Or we will come to Him of our own accord.
[08:10] PI: ...
[08:10] PI: M-my point is...
[08:10] SS: ...
[08:11] PI: He has proxies trained on us. The ones who posted the statuses with 1s and 2s on the twitter can't be anything other than proxies, at this point.
[08:11] SS: How do you know?
[08:12] PI: Kit, I woke up from a nap that I didn't choose to take with a symbol burned into my hand. Someone took a picture of me during this involuntary "nap" and posted it. That same person took a picture of my dorm and a tree by it with the same sort of distortion.
[08:13] PI: Distortion in photographs and videos is common for those targeted by the Slenderman.
[08:13] PI: They often show up near His proxies as well.
[08:13] SS: Ugh
[08:13] SS: Paige
[08:13] SS: I need to go, like, now...
[08:13] PI: ...
[08:13] PI: Alright.
[08:13] SS: No, no, it's not you
[08:13] SS: It's
[08:13] SS: a family thing
[08:14] PI: ... Yeah, I... I understand...
[08:14] PI: ... I'm just...
[08:14] PI: I'm so sorry, Kit.
[08:14] PI: I'm so, so, /so/ sorry.
[08:14] PI: I'm probably the one who dragged all of us into this.
[08:14] PI: You're right. The Tulpa theory.
[08:14] PI: I just...
[08:14] PI: ... I wanted to know all I could.
[08:15] PI: Just in case.
[08:15] PI: ... I see where that got me now...
-- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] changed their mood to OFFLINE --
... I truly am sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen. Kit, Sam, Gwen, Lily... I'm so, so sorry... I just pray that He will lose interest in us soon... and that I haven't inadvertently done just what I was trying to prevent.

The Awkward Moment
Where Kit realizes this is turning from a "Post your mail exchange letters" blog to a "Post any interaction between your distant state friends" blog, due to the fact mail is expensive as hell, slower than chatting on a messenger, and your friends are rarely online anyways... Well, I posted on twitter about it, but I've been worried for a while about what Paige told me, and kinda freaked out over it. So I waited, and waited, and waited for word from Gwen.
Yesterday, I caught her online, and here was our conversation:
-- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] began pestering amethystNymph [AN] at 22:08 --
[10:08] SS: Oh my god.
[10:08] AN: What about him?
[10:08] SS: Where the hell have you been, Gwen?
[10:08] SS: ... Hahaha.
[10:08] SS: Very funny
[10:08] SS: But seriously woman, oh my god...
[10:08] AN: I stayed out too late again.
[10:08] SS: Oh?
[10:08] AN: Got grounded. I wasn't even out with guys or anything, I was just walking around with my camera..you know how I am
[10:09] SS: Yeah...
[10:09] SS: So like, can I be rude for a moment despite wanting to hug you so much, and ask you something?
[10:09] SS: ... Besides that question
[10:09] SS: I shall go ahead and ask anyways...
[10:09] AN: But of course. You seem kinda freaked out
[10:10] SS: Gwen, you wouldn't have happened to have sent me anything lately, have you?
[10:10] SS: Like, not a letter, but...
[10:10] SS: A necklace?
[10:10] SS: I mean, it's cool if you, did, it's pretty...
[10:10] AN: Haha, no...no, I didn't
[10:10] SS: Oh.
[10:10] SS: Alright...
[10:11] AN: I would have been all "DUDE, HOW'D YOU LIKE THE GIFT" when you pestered me if I did <3
[10:11] SS: ....
[10:11] SS: That's right...
[10:11] SS: Um, do you know if Lily or Sam planned anything?
[10:11] SS: Because recently, both Paige and I got necklaces in unmarked envelopes...
[10:12] AN: Sam is an assbutt, so I doubt he did, and I haven't spoken to Lily in a while. But neither of them told me anything
[10:12] SS: Freaked Paige out more than me I think , but I'm kinda freaked out myself....
[10:12] SS: Oh.
[10:12] AN: Whoa, that's uh...wow. o_O
[10:12] SS: Alright.
[10:12] SS: Thanks, Gwen.
[10:12] AN: No problem. Come talk to me if anything's bugging you, okay? (:
[10:13] SS: Yeah...
[10:13] AN: Mama Gwen is heeeeere <3
[10:13] SS: I know. :D
[10:13] SS: Um, Gwen, one other question...
[10:13] AN: :D Sure
[10:14] SS: Do you remember any thick packets that Paige sent us, pertaining to missing persons cases in our areas'?
[10:14] SS: About...
[10:14] SS: A guy in a suit?
[10:14] AN: Suit guy, suit guy.....I..yeah, I do. I skimmed it. I have no idea what I did with it, though..
[10:15] SS: It's alright. I probably left mine under a shitload of papers.
[10:15] SS: Skimmed it too.
[10:16] SS: Well, thanks Gwen.
[10:16] AN: No problem (: give your fishies much love for me!
[10:16] SS: Thanks a lot. I just need to see if I can ask Lily about it- Foxtrot loves you!
[10:17] AN: :D I love him toooo! And yeah, ask Lily. She might know something.
[10:17] SS: Hopefully.
[10:17] AN: I sure as heck don't. I wish I did though :\ mysteriouussss
[10:17] SS: Pffft
[10:17] SS: Lily is quiet and mysterious too. :P
[10:18] SS: She might know more, hopefully...
[10:18] AN: Fingers crossed <3
[10:18] SS: Yus.
[10:18] SS: Now let's change the topic, since I haven't seen you in forever!
[10:18] SS: :D
[10:18] AN: Oh, sure!
[10:21] AN: About that walk I took, I snuck out at 2 and walked around till about 6 ish, I wanted to see the sunrise, right?
[10:21] AN: I tried to take a picture, and when I looked back at it, my freaking camera glitched out. Severe disappointment :\
[10:21] SS: Wow, damn.
[10:21] SS: I hate when cameras do that
[10:21] SS: Did you drop it or something?
[10:22] AN: No, I was just...o_O holding it. Maybe it doesn't love me anymore
[10:22] SS: Meh. My camera does that quite a bit at night, where it just like, quality-dies on me.
[10:23] AN: CAMRAAAAAS! *fist shake*
[10:23] SS: Unpredictable bastards!
I hope I see Lily soon. She's almost always busy with college work.
Also, as to not make this post boring, the fish that Gwen and I were referring to, my baby Foxtrot:
Yesterday, I caught her online, and here was our conversation:

[10:12] SS: Alright.
[10:12] SS: Thanks, Gwen.
[10:12] AN: No problem. Come talk to me if anything's bugging you, okay? (:
[10:13] SS: Yeah...
[10:13] AN: Mama Gwen is heeeeere <3
[10:13] SS: I know. :D
[10:13] SS: Um, Gwen, one other question...
[10:13] AN: :D Sure
[10:14] SS: Do you remember any thick packets that Paige sent us, pertaining to missing persons cases in our areas'?
[10:14] SS: About...
[10:14] SS: A guy in a suit?
[10:14] AN: Suit guy, suit guy.....I..yeah, I do. I skimmed it. I have no idea what I did with it, though..
[10:15] SS: It's alright. I probably left mine under a shitload of papers.
[10:15] SS: Skimmed it too.
[10:16] SS: Well, thanks Gwen.
[10:16] AN: No problem (: give your fishies much love for me!
[10:16] SS: Thanks a lot. I just need to see if I can ask Lily about it- Foxtrot loves you!
[10:17] AN: :D I love him toooo! And yeah, ask Lily. She might know something.
[10:17] SS: Hopefully.
[10:17] AN: I sure as heck don't. I wish I did though :\ mysteriouussss
[10:17] SS: Pffft
[10:17] SS: Lily is quiet and mysterious too. :P
[10:18] SS: She might know more, hopefully...
[10:18] AN: Fingers crossed <3
[10:18] SS: Yus.
[10:18] SS: Now let's change the topic, since I haven't seen you in forever!
[10:18] SS: :D
[10:18] AN: Oh, sure!
[10:21] AN: About that walk I took, I snuck out at 2 and walked around till about 6 ish, I wanted to see the sunrise, right?
[10:21] AN: I tried to take a picture, and when I looked back at it, my freaking camera glitched out. Severe disappointment :\
[10:21] SS: Wow, damn.
[10:21] SS: I hate when cameras do that
[10:21] SS: Did you drop it or something?
[10:22] AN: No, I was just...o_O holding it. Maybe it doesn't love me anymore
[10:22] SS: Meh. My camera does that quite a bit at night, where it just like, quality-dies on me.
[10:23] AN: CAMRAAAAAS! *fist shake*
[10:23] SS: Unpredictable bastards!
I hope I see Lily soon. She's almost always busy with college work.
Also, as to not make this post boring, the fish that Gwen and I were referring to, my baby Foxtrot:

Chatlog: Kit and Paige
Hey guys, Kit here again. Forewarning you guys now, this thing kinda became long because Paige and I talk too much. So, like, yesterday Paige messaged me about what I was posting on the twitter( Here's what I got from someone with no return address: https://twitter.com/#!/Thuslychained/status/180043346973175809/photo/1 ), and she was kinda freaked out. I'm still skeptical about the things she told me.
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.
[07:34] SS: C'mon.
[07:34] PI: ... But we could be in serious danger, Kit... I swear...
[07:34] SS: You and I both know it's really, really silly.
[07:34] PI: It's not silly!
[07:34] SS: Paige, nothing is going to happen.
[07:34] PI: ...
[07:35] -- paraInquirer [PI] sighs in defeat. --
[07:35] SS: Even if some guy in a suit DID come along, I have my trusty pocket knife, and my dad with a gun.
[07:35] SS: Okay?
[07:35] PI: ... I hope you're right, Kit.
[07:35] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] hugs --
[07:35] PI: I really, /really/ hope you're right.
[07:35] -- paraInquirer [PI] hugs. --
[07:36] SS: C'mon, if you want, let's talk about that one book I told you about. You said you liked it. :D
[07:36] SS: Kay?
[07:36] PI: ... Okay. And... yeah, I did like it.
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.
[07:34] SS: C'mon.
[07:34] PI: ... But we could be in serious danger, Kit... I swear...
[07:34] SS: You and I both know it's really, really silly.
[07:34] PI: It's not silly!
[07:34] SS: Paige, nothing is going to happen.
[07:34] PI: ...
[07:35] -- paraInquirer [PI] sighs in defeat. --
[07:35] SS: Even if some guy in a suit DID come along, I have my trusty pocket knife, and my dad with a gun.
[07:35] SS: Okay?
[07:35] PI: ... I hope you're right, Kit.
[07:35] -- sociallyawkwardShrub [SS] hugs --
[07:35] PI: I really, /really/ hope you're right.
[07:35] -- paraInquirer [PI] hugs. --
[07:36] SS: C'mon, if you want, let's talk about that one book I told you about. You said you liked it. :D
[07:36] SS: Kay?
[07:36] PI: ... Okay. And... yeah, I did like it.

Hey guys, I just made a twitter to keep all of our thus-watchers Who the hell am I kidding, nobody cares but the rest of us up to date on happenings. I guess I can use it to announce any livestreams or chats that we wanna do? Hmmm....
OH! I can use it to be silly and experiment. There we go.
I can also use it to say when I send out a letter?
... Now I feel stupid for making it. Gah. Oh well. Here's the twitter: https://twitter.com/#!/Thuslychained

Okay, um..since everyone seems to be doing an introduction, I guess I should do one, too. Even though it will be weird because I'm really bad at stuff like that.
My name is LILY. I have a passion for CHOCOLATE MILK and HENRI MATISSE PAINTINGS. I like reading books, a lot. I plan to own a book store at some point in my life. I also like writing letters to my friends/pen pals. Awesome.
Um, that's all I got, guys ): Is that okay?
