To be honest, we don't really gain much by the guys seeing the videos anyways.

Not unless they also remember the events captured in the videos.

Exactly. It might 'jog their memory.'

I don't think it would.

It'd just be more WTF for them. The videos are for us to figure out.

I think some of the phantom tweets are sort of auto-somnambulism on the boys' part - "HABITHASBITME" etc. I think any or all of the boys have done some of those and forgotten them, which leads back to some slips in behavior and speech over the last few weeks, like when Jeff began referring to SM as "Him," capitalized. Whereas HABIT has proven he is capable of coherent thought and speech, he can use Twitter and converse with SM in open air. He doesn't need to send stream of consciousness stuff like that.

I think it's a little off for SM to use the twitter himself with that last one. I prefer him never speaking, at all, in any medium.

The key word here is 'inertia.'

As for what I mean by that, allow me to elaborate. It's a simple matter regarding the laws of physics: Inertia and momentum. When Evan attacked Slendy in Ashen Waste, he claims something was slowing him down.

By Newton's Third Law, this inherently cannot be physically possible - If Evan was swinging as hard as he says he was, then he should have impacted with that bat.

But, he's slowed down, seemingly by nothing, he falls back, starts spitting up blood, and then Slendy literally disappears. The instant you start factoring in stuff that literally breaks the laws of physics, anything is possible.

Therefore, I presented this compared to the matter of the morse code videos: If something can break the laws of physics like that, it probably isn't a stretch to say 'something is hiding these videos from you and not us.'


Not to nitpick but Evan slowing as he tried to hit slendy isn't exactly breaking physics. All it requires is an outside force to act to oppose inertia, whether the force is seen or unseen is an irrelevant matter. In the original stories he did have some supernatural powers attributed to him (fire and turning people to mist IIRC)

Is that the original Grimm version?


Nope. Black Lagoon. Hansel and Gretel were pseudonyms for these twin children who had spent their lives starring in snuff films.

Got the Jeff tweet at WaWa before Harry Potter (which was amazing). I so called it.
I got all excited and showed my friend who listens to me when I ramble about EMH, but she hasn't watched everything yet and didn't get it. Sad

I still think that the Morse videos and the other clips they can't see are clues for us. They give us more insight (and way more headaches) into the characters/series.
If the guys are meant to see them, they will when they're supposed to. Harping on it won't solve anything.

Oh my god those tweets made me so incredibly happy. rofl

And they were also wonderfully revealing. All of which that I can see, you lovely hybrids have already divulged. <3

So I've been thinking.

HABIT's mom only called him HABIT right? What if that was because he wasn't her son, but rather an intruding entity that was inHABITing him?

Yeah after that uStream they've taken that idea and beaten us over the head with it. I think we could print out every frame of the videos in to flipbooks and mail it to them via USPS and they'd just "receive" a pile of ash.

Also +100 internets to anyone who actually does that.

That's actually a really interesting idea. Her son wasn't her son, so she had a new name for him.

And perhaps 70's-Evan actually survived and now stalks everyone.. AS THE RAKE!!!.. or some guy who's just kinda stalking around the guys, unrelated to The Rake.

I had a thought similiar to this - what if, at one point, HABIT(a separate entity) did something terrible and, like all children with 'Imaginary Friends', when Evan's mother blamed him, Evan stated, simple, "Habit did it!"

Evan's mother, knowing no better, thought that Habit was just Evan's imaginary friend, and started calling Evan Habit anyway.
