 		There was a letter that made it sound as if Corenthal thought of his patients, including Habit, as children of his own. That they were like a family.

I guess our lovely Captain disagrees?

I'm enjoying the myriad plot threads that are springing up, because at the moment I have faith that they'll all tie back together. There's evidence that everything is connected, but we're still in the thick of it, so it's hard to see how it all ties back.

Of course, if we're still doing this four years from now and have nothing but further confusion, then there's problems. But for now? I'm having fun.


Right, as am I. There's a reason for all this and I trust that EMH know what they're doing enough to be sure that it's all connected and not just thrown in to add some interest factor. They're doing it exactly the way they should I think in that it's apparent that there's reasons for the things going on but we don't have enough information to determine how it's all connected which adds to the mystery and fun of it all.


If you go back and re-watch the episodes and look over the letters and such, it very quickly becomes apparent how much of this is planned out. There's hints and foreshadowing all over the place. Just look at all the extra ADitL content that's come up since then. They clearly did a lot of extra filming that day.

(and HABIT is still idle on g-mail you have no idea how hard it is to resist the urge to start messaging him)
Yeah I think it's important also that they've got everything planned out before they jump into things. Like this whole SEVENTRIALS thing. If they didn't know what the fuck they were doing with that, it could get really difficult to figure out what to do next. lol The trials have got to be a difficult thing to figure out how to work out without ending up with people obeying things that they shouldn't be obeying. (Sending a bucket of blood to HABIT) lol

(HABIT idle on g-mail = he's browsing this thread. srsly)

 		The same letter said that "Jeffery, Vincent, and HABIT" were taken from Dr. Corenthal, and that the doctor would not let the same happen to Linnie.

HABIT might hold a grudge for letting the doctor play favorites.

Hmm, good point. And in that last letter he referred to him not as HABIT, but as Evan. So maybe (again, assuming HABIT is a possessing entity) got kicked out of F!Evan with Corenthal's help?

I am so jealous you don't even know :T
On the topic of over-analyzing, Evan doesn't know he's being possesed by HABIT, right?
So how can we know he's the only one? Only Evan has been caught on camera acting strange, true, but if HABIT was having an effect on the others it could possibly explain why they cannot see the hidden videos?
I dunno, just brain-drabbling.
I think he does have an impact in the way that he has control over the things they remember, they see etc. But it seems like he's focusing on one of them at the moment to use as a sort of pawn. As is HABIT it seems. Whether they're both doing it for the same reason or are fighting over him is unclear. But it's apparent in Evan particularly because of his frequent coughing fits, odd behavior, etc. None of which have really been seen among other members of the crew as of yet.


Well looking back at the hidden videos again, there's footage there they don't remember filming right? And Evan doesn't remember what happens when HABIT takes over, and doesn't notice he has amnesia. It's far more likely that HABIT is focusing only on Evan for now, but the footage in those videos just doesn't make sense, and it annoys me.
Well we don't know if they remember filming it because they can't even see it. lol My guess is that they did film those clips when they were conscious and themselves but HABIT takes over and makes the hidden videos while they (most likely Evan) are completely unaware. So that still provides no valuable evidence that HABIT has inHABITed anyone but Evan.

I'm sure the footage in those videos makes perfect sense as they do seem to have a purpose and message behind them that we just don't yet have the resources to interpret entirely. There's gaps in their consciousness (for example, when they go to run down slendy in the car and then just way up with no clue what happened) where who knows what could have happened as well. It's also entirely possible that certain clips are from future events, knowing the time manipulating properties of slendy.

 		@Complex: That's a good point. He could be blaming Corenthal for not fighting harder to keep them together. It would make sense. He was a kid, however cruel and rather fucked up, so he probably saw it (and still does see it) as a betrayal.

@Rhiannon: Isn't it impossible for Evan and Fairmount!Evan to be the same? After all, Evan was born 1990 or so since he's 20, and those letters dated back further than that.

 		Fairmount!Evan would be roughly fifty years old if he was still alive.

I'm gonna just throw this out there as an idea since there's not really much evidence backing it up... Doesn't there seem to be quite some similarities between HABIT and Corenthal's relationship and HABIT and Slendy's? I don't mean to imply that Slendy = Corenthal cos that's quite the assumption but it's just something to ponder. Both relationships strike me as being very much a father/son type relationship only the child is resistant to the father's control and wants to only do what he wants.

Ya don't have to take that seriously, guys. Just something that occurred to me.

They're not the same person. I think that HABIT, on the other hand, is the same entity. It may have possessed F!Evan, and is now inHABITING EMH!Evan. I think that the connection between the Fairmount kids and the EMH crew is stronger than just that, but I'm not sure what the connection is yet. Perhaps something involving reincarnation, time travel, and/or multiple dimensions.

 		Well, before drawing parallels between Slendy and Corenthal, it's believed that both Damsel and F!Vinnie had met with Slender Man before; Damsel was told to come north by The Man, and The Man comforted Vinnie after killing the reverend who molested him.

 		Unless future EMH figures out a way to destroy slendy that also rips a hole in space/time which launches them back in the past to become the previous Fairmount counterparts. I rule out nothing at this point regarding these guys.

 		I doubt they'll find eight-year-old actors willing to cooperate

Yeah I'm not claiming that Dr. Corenthal is the one and only Slendy and that's the end of it cos that'd be kind of ridiculous. (I'm not claiming anything actually, just pondering) But regardless, there is a similarity from my perspective between the two relationships though I'm unsure what that could mean as of yet.

Well I think that this would be a big epileptic tree leap of faith, but maybe this "father son type relationship" between Habit and slendy is much more literal than we think? Maybe Slendy isn't eternal, but has a rather normal lifespan, but just finds a replacement (Habit) each time, whom he grooms into this role with madness and overall strange behavior. So fairmount evan was a Habbit, but then later the doctor began scribbling habbit everywhere - and talking about evan as if he was "gone", and now Slendy is seen to talk about people as his children. I kind of doubt this all to the point that I almost didn't type it out, but it could at least partially fit...


In other words, the reoccuring/reincoarnating characters part could be true, but also actually applies to slendy and habit as well?

Disprove away!

Yeah that kinda occurred to me as well but like you said, it's a stretch because we have so little information to back it up. I'm not going to try to disprove it because there's really nothing that can disprove it much at this point. It's perfectly possible but there's also many other things that are possible that we can't see yet with the little information we have.
