Minor key theories and happenings
Things have still been really very quiet, which for me is almost worse than things happening, in a way. I think I'm going to probably start taking photographs a lot more in the hope that the Slender Man will show up one day, because why not? The other day I was kind of poking around with the higher frequencies, as high as I could, looking for anything weird, and then I just sat down with a friend, and he had this video game magazine I owned and I'd read before, cover to cover, at least five times out of boredom, and so I picked it up and flipped it open-- and on the very first page, on the very first phrase I happened to look at was, "the Slender Man mythos."
Needless to say, I flipped my lid and scattered the papers inside everywhere.
But other than that rather unusual coincidence -- and is anything really a coincidence? -- nothing has happened. That afternoon I told my mother about it and we were sort of talking about it, and she mentioned a theory that maybe the Slender Man was somehow different from the other shadow people. So, in our kind of myopic human terminology, I think he could be...like an arch-demon? Somehow more powerful or wilful than other shadow people? He does seem a lot more unique than the rest of them in what he does...on a side note, it really bothers me that no one believes me, which is partially why I really want to get a good photograph or two! It's so frustrating, you wouldn't believe how much, when you tell someone any latest advance in what's going on in your brain circuits as they maniacally whizz away at trying to figure this out, and they sort of condescendingly pretend to believe you and ask you to show them the photograph once you have it.
This afternoon I poked around with the high frequencies in the early night and I was looking out a window, and although it's sort of stupid, I was telling him to show up and doing my best to taunt an interdimensional Lovecraftian horror, and then a streetlight flickered several times, turned off, turned on, and turned off again. The truth is much subtler than a horror novel, but so much stranger.
