Drew my pookie while watching cases of disturbing lost media. I’m gonna go nap now i’m tired asf

[dippable]

i REALLY wanna talk about chaimailchasers. most of this info i have was in sagan hawkes' video about it, so if theres something not in there, i won't know about it (i get too scared to watch it on my own lol) anyways thoughts utc you guys know the drill

first of all, i really enjoy chainmailchasers. it's absolutely incredible, and i love it with all my heart. personally, i'm seeing a lot of influence from that "hey peebrain, you teleport?" thing from a while ago. however! there is a lot to talk about. mainly, the dragons/images and how they change.

i think that the images change through literal actual evolutionary processes, kind of. i think they all have a common ancestor, but they don't breed or whatever- instead reproducing asexually. this is why they have SIMILAR characteristics, but not all the same. some of these similar characteristics are the smile (seen in smiledog, kinda in the mario victim image, solar plexus clown glider, trollface, and if you can be silly about it, grace's computer wallpaper) and the hands (seen again in smiledog, the trollface drawing, somewhat in the mario victim image, and in the background of grace's facecam). i think that these characteristics elude to how they are all related, but i'm not sure which is stronger: the common ancestor, or the descendants.

other than what they look like, it seems their power level is directly reliant on what they used to mean back in those days. the trollface was a "runt" because it didnt curse you or bring any ill will, most of the time- which is why, after the heaven stairway incident, people fell back to earth grinning. they were dead, sure, but they would have lived if they didn't hit the ground. the reason trollface was used is because to some (including me!) the face was somewhat uncanny, but nowhere near as terrifying as smiledog. it wasnt terrifying to many, but for those it did scare, were they the ones that didn't fall back down to earth?

lastly, the prickheads. their security protocols are not deeply explored, but it's said they had enough power to keep basilisks under control- even though it put them at risk. this means they had some insanely powerful technology (whether it was laden with crosses or well encrypted, i'm unsure) but it's very likely that arthur, murph's little brother, will be INCREDIBLY important in the future.

i'm not entirely sure where to put this, either, but icecreammonkeyfan's videos are deeply concerning. he is the mad boy that slipped through time, yes, but what is he? what will he become? why did something suddenly go wrong? is this anything to do with der großman?

either way, incredible video by sagan, and super cool series, too. i'm absolutely excited to see where this goes in the future since the videos are genuinely unsettling as hell, and i can't wait to see what happens with the series.

Overview of my headcanons

I was thinking about those fics we all read in 2012. Y/N gets kidnapped. Y/N lives with murderers. Y/N is actually special/a demon/someone’s kid/just crazy.

And I wanted to revamp the idea as I have grown into my old age (almost 20 😉)

So here’s the “ground rules”:

Slenderman, the Operator, Der Großman, whatever you call the stick man, I like the idea of him being a forgotten deity. Once a protector of the lost, dismissed as myth, he’s now twisted by the urban legends told about him. Gods are shaped by belief, and as his stories have become more violent and cruel, so has he.

That said, he’s not a father figure in the mansion. (I’m calling it the mansion for now until I have something more solid) He’s more of a moderator in this ‘deal with the devil’-esque arrangement with everyone. He was a sort of shepherd before he was corrupted and so that instinct? Ideology? That muscle memory is still something he acts on. He finds broken minds, disparaged souls, and offers them shelter, protection, maybe even community, all for a price.

This is where I blur MarbleHornets and creepypasta. In MarbleHornets, Tim is the only one left ‘infected’. Alex, Jay, and most importantly Brian are all dead. The Operator offers Tim a compromise of sorts. He and Brian worked well together against Alex, the sort of teamwork he can utilize. He’ll stop haunting Tim, he’ll even bring Brian back to life, but in return they run his errands. The human world has evolved so much since he’s Changed and he needs something to subsist on besides belief. People just don’t leave offering like they used to. His new toys will go and ignite fear of The Slenderman. They even have a great jumping off point. MarbleHornets is already so popular.

In the same vein, he “saved” the rest. Jeff, EJ, Ben, Toby, Jane, Natalie, I’m too lazy to name to rest. And the amount of control he can exert over them is equal to whatever he has to offer them. Hence Tim, Brian, and Toby are on such short leashes, they owe their lives to him. Where as others like Jeff have a place to stay, if they want it. In exchange he can direct him to preferred victims. Whether or not Jeff follows through is a bit of a gray area.

The “mansion” is tied to the Operator. A physical manifestation and exertion of his power. If people start to forget him again, it starts depleting. More rotten floorboards, mildew, just generally dilapidated. Maybe a whole section of the house disappears, conservation of energy and all that.

This is the base I have right now! Writing it all out I want to write a Quotev story-based quiz like when I was 13.😅

Next up is going to be either my oc that I’m shoehorning into to this story or going more in depth on the individual characters I’m including.

So, we know HABIT is an acquaintance since you guys have mentioned him, but I'm curious if there's any other entities that we might know of?

Also, what's your favorite candy?

Hare Has Mentioned A Few, Very Discreetly. You May Know The One We Call Der Großman, Though Its Name Is Different To Many. I've Noticed Many Humans Call It The Operator.

We Don't Particularly Like The Operator.

I'm Sure You've Heard Of The Entity Known As The Rake. We Avoid It.

HABIT Is...Difficult To Discuss. To Other Entities, It Is Simply Playful, If Not A Bit Possessive. But It Does Not Adhere To Human Morals In The Least. It Takes The Most Destructive Path For Every Solution It May Need. It Feeds Off Of Carnage And Despair. That Is Simply How It Is. But If You Have No Soul To Steal, No Pain To Consume, And No Fear To Amplify, It Is A Mere Fellow.

There Are Another Few That You Most definitely Don't Know. Entities That May Show Themselves Soon. But Not If Hare And I Have A Say.

Also, My Favorite Candies Are The Worther's Caramel Hard Candies.

Hi I’m really curious about slender man, I learned about slender man was see by people so many times but the slender man was make up from computer. I’m so confused about it. Is slender man real or host?

Great question! Slenderman himself was created on June 10th, 2009 by Eric Knudsen and was posted on the Creepypasta site under "Something Awful". So Slenderman himself is a fictional character. However in older Germany there were carvings of a creature called "Der Großman" meaning "The Tall Man." This could be we Knudsen got his inspiration for his character. Hope this helps!!! :)

Slenderman and the Fair Folk

Look, I’m not saying Slenderman is a member of the fair folk (and the Unseelie.. probably) but consider this: Slender Sickness Symptoms: Coughing fits/coughing up blood, nausea, paranoia, vomitting, extreme fatigue. Other symptoms may also be bloody noses, fever, and rare cases of amnesia.

Elf-shot/Fairy Illness/Tinneas Sidhe: Mysterious bruises, cramps, paralysis, death, extreme fatigue, nausea, vomitting, ‘withering away’, depression, fevers, amnesia, ‘consumption’, coughing blood, hallucination.

Slenderman seems to be well known for kidnapping children (whether he kills them or not seems to vary from source to source.), along with stalking, and killing those in his forest.

You know what else does that?

Fairies.

There are lots of old tales and warnings about never talking about someone having a beautiful child/baby. Why? Because the fair folk might come and take them away. Perhaps the stories of changelings are the most well known. Fairy children left to replace the stolen mortal babies until the parents figure out what was going on.

The Huldufolk of Icelandic lore specifically kidnap children and leave changelings in their place. It is said that the children are loved and spoiled by their fairy parents. The Bendith Y Mamau of Welsh origins also do this.

Of course there are plenty of tales of fairies outright killing or harming those who anger them or otherwise insult them. There are legends of the fair folk burying entire villages under avalanches or inflicting famine and plagues.

You also have the Will-O-Wisps who lead people astray in forests at night, often to their death’s in bogs.

Plus everyone knows fairies love forests.

Violence and strange appearances are not uncommon among stories of fairies, either. Red Caps were known to be extremely violent as well as a cannibal of both humans and other fairies. Plenty of fairies are dangerous - dullahans, the wild hunt, Bean-Fionn (the Drowners), Sluagh.

In Scottish folklore you have the Seelie Court (dangerous, but more likely to be benevolent to humans), and the Unseelie Court (malicious fey). The Seelie would be more likely to play relatively harmless pranks on humans. The Unseelie? They would harm humans because they could or it was just entertaining.

Fairies also have extremely wild and varied appearances from the stereotypical little man/woman with wings to, literally, a foot with an eye and hands. I’m just saying - Slender’s appearance would be relatively tame in a fairy court.

Given that there are also strong belief in fairies in Germany and some origins have Slenderman coming from Germany and being known as Der Groẞman.

And Slenderman having proxies? Well fairies don’t just kidnap children. The former Huldufolk? They are said to kidnap adults to put to work as slaves. What are proxies? Slaves stuck doing Slender’s bidding. Sure he has them kill people instead of work fields but is it really that different? Slender’s slaves are just reaping a particular bloody and troublesome crop.

Manor in the forest? Sounds a bit like an old barrow-mound. Barrows were known to be the homes of fairies and elves and some were extremely opulent. They are also extremely protective of their barrows. Slender probably doesn’t like idiots trashing his home.

So I’m not saying Slenderman is a fairy but... he def. could be a fairy in the Unseelie Court. Not even the strangest or most powerful among the court.

Fairies are weird.
