Back on topic, somewhat. Who do you all think the Observer is?

A. Noah
B. Milo
C. Liam
D. Kevin
E. Someone Else

[Rodion Romanovich]

Someone Else. I would have said Milo, if not for the glasses.

I'm mostly basing this on what Observer told us on Formspring, about watching Milo die and whatnot. If this wasn't Observer-Milo watching Human-Milo die (again, this would be my main theory if it wasn't for those damn glasses), there's really no one in the story that fits.

One problem is that we don't know that much about what being an Observer means. If you can you still appear as your normal self (and some of the Formspring responses seemed to point that way), then my main suspect would be Mary Asher.

Not just someone else, but everyone else. The Observer said on formspring that he was a collective mind. I think he is a being made up of the minds of those that slenderman has slenderfied, and is constantly searching for more victims.

Also it is clear that the Observer, whatever it is, can directly interface with computers (telepathically?), kinda like the transformers did in that horrible movie. Because of the way he "Sees" the internet, he can change things in ways that don't make sense to us, i.e. the new profile pic that can't be changed back, and the mysterious keylogger.

For some reason, though, he can't use the spacebar when in the computer like that. I remember him saying on the formspring that typing with no spaces "makesiteasierforme."

But yeah, that's all I've got for now.

(I have no outside information that would ruin this development, honestly.)

I'm kinda thinking that the Observer is Milo, somehow. Only because I love twists like that, when the antagonist was really just a friend / relative that was dead from the beginning.

Perhaps the Observer is Teddy Valiant then?

It's been established the Observer is some kind of collective of many people or souls, but I think in terms of activity in TT it has some sort of central physical mass and I suspect that is Milo. But he's probably not the only one.

Yes, the Observer "saw" Milo die - because the Observer is/was not Milo. But Milo is now part of it and has become the Observer for all intents and purposes of its interaction with Noah.
