 		I dunno, Masky always struck me as dumb as a fencepost. He may remember things Tim doesn't, but he reacts to everything on a very basic level ("Hate Alex...He called me Alex! ATTACK!"). I think Tim's higher cognitive functions go dormant when Masky takes over.

Now, I could see Tim "summoning" Masky, if he felt he need Masky's powers, or if he couldn't handle a traumatic situation.

 		I think it's a bad idea for reasons that have already been listed. What I would be interested in seeing is them (or Tim on his own) trying to actually merge the two personalities. So rather than "Tim and Masky", it's just Tim, with some extra knowledge and abilities.

I think he showed us that he is making some effort to confront his demons in the latter part of #65 when he has returned to the hospital, smashed the wall where it said LIAR and had a nervous breakdown in front of the door just before downing a whole bottle of pills. Unless you're suggesting that he was Masky during this Entry, then I'd say he's trying to confront his demons, especially if we consider that we now have so much evidence regarding the pills being a defense against becoming Masky, a help for fighting off the slendersickness, and apparently a method of defying The Operator. While at the time of 65 originally, people thought he might OD, and that it might have been intentional. I personally was stunned The Operator didn't appear in the hospital at the end of the Entry... If he had've rolled out that door Tim was screaming at I probably would have fainted haha

I am no match for this unbeatable combo.

Actually, what you've described here seems to me like Tim trying to suppress his Masky side. What I was talking about was incorporating it.

 		It's an interesting idea and it would be cool to see but I don't think Masky would be all that gabby.

At this point I don't think we're ever going to see masky again, Tim's pills are keeping his masky state at bay. As for jay, he's going to have his own masky state if he doesn't get better soon. I just hope the "hoody is jay from the future" therory isn't right Very Happy


I think you misread something.
It's not "Will Tim become Masky again?", it's "Should they force Tim to become Masky?".

They won't. When Alex jumped the unmasked Hoody in his squat: "Where's Tim and Jay?"

Uh, yeah. Don't even know why that theory even popped up in the first place.

I understand the question. I'm just saying it would be hard to force Tim to become masky because he's already doing better (pills). And Jays in such bad shape he wouldn't be able to pull a hoody like in entry 61. If anything Tim would stop feeding jay his meds and give him a mask if they needed a masky like person with masky like solutions.

 		Look at me! I finally made a thread with an actual discussion!!!


I think I stated that if this event occurs, Jay is in a normal state (or as normal as he can be)

In my opinion, going to the hospital of his own volition was him trying to uncover more about himself that he didn't remember. I think once he started having a panic attack while in the room with the door he thought he might be slipping into Masky, so he downed the pills to prevent it and possibly just passed out from exhaustion.
