Definite pill shaking heard. Thank you for picking up on this- man, this gives us great insight on his soon-to-be-known 7 month fugue. I'm sure I don't have to point out Tim's/Masky's pill habits to show how relevant this is.

He's Jay. He's use to it by now.


Seriously. Its not 'taking it well' IMO, its flat affect from a kind of Slender-induced PTSD.

 		1) That heart-beat was so perfectly terrifying. At first I had to chuckle over it, but it succeeded in stripping away my lulz and finding the delicious TERROR-center once I realized that it was coming from outside and that the camera was picking it up, and ohgodwherewasitcomingfrom GAAAAAAH

The flickering TV was also pretty fecking awesome.

Fish-eye lens totally threw me. Fish-eye images kind of make me uneasy to begin with. This is going to be poop-tastic if we get a mixture of fish-eye and the Operator. OR Fish-eye and TTA. Sad Okay, now I'm not sleeping tonight.

Could be the Slender!doll arm, if it moved! The light is at an angle that it it would put most of the arm in shadow.


Regarding the beginning, I am getting the feeling that the 'Wake Up' twitpic is significant because it shows that TTA has been orchestrating things in the background; I don't think that it helps us to determine whether or not he's on Jay's side, though it does reinforce that TTA has been in contact with and may very well have been controlling Jay for some if not all of the last seven months.

I dunno about you guys, but with the heart-beat noise and the flickering, I want to say that that's either Operator or TTA-related. My guess is that TTA was probably physically present at the time, given that he seems to eff things up. Patta-patting a heart-beat on some hollow surface to welcome Jay out of a fugue state does seem like a dick move, and TTA is kind of a big old douchebag. XD

I don't know if there's anything else that we can speculate over; I didn't spot any Operator this time around (but then again I didn't spot Jay's hand at the beginning, either!)

After this entry, it's likely that Jay is going to be watching over videos, in character: if this was woken today, all of this is happening in real time. He's probably just been driving around all day to try to shake his brain into gear. Now he'll probably be searching other alternatives like tapes or footage that he finds.

I'm curious to see if this becomes something that consumes the entire season: will Jay spend seven months forward reviewing seven months back?

You guys, to think that we were going to get any answers! Scoffity scoff!

Still, if that gal happens to show up again, I'll be intrigued.

Need to watch it over again to decide if there's anything else worth squealing about. In the meantime: no emoticon can properly portray my fangirl-face right now. It's actually probably kind of terrifying to behold. Some kind of combo of @_@ and 8D, probably.

It could also explain the Twitter picture that looked a lot like him (And possibly memory gaps). We speculated he's becoming a Masky, and now we may have some solid evidence to back it up. Very Happy

Or... My other wacky theory, because i'm good at making those up. Is that TTA was with him a fair bit so he left a pill packet there just in case he needed them (Lame i know... but yeah my random theories are weird. >.>)

That actually makes a lot of sense, I mean, look at how Alex reacted to Slendy's appearance in #26. Nonplussed, accepting.

 		My guess is that considering Jay still had the camera(s) on him, what he'll be doing is going through footage that's already been recorded and posting it, as opposed to posting it as it happens.

It also stops when he turns the TV off.

It'd be interesting if TTA WAS physically present, but there didn't seem to be much room for him to hide and do that in the hotel room! Especially since the noise seemed to be coming from the TV; he'd've had to hide behind it or near it or something, and there just wasn't the space. I feel like that noise was either his alarm (though weird-as-fuck alarm, honestly), the Operator's unseen influence, or Jay himself having some effect on technology (though honestly this'd be a bit weird, considering that the camera strapped to his chest is fine).

Honestly... in-character, it's a bit touching that pretty much his first act upon waking up was to get online and tell us about it! Though his mention of him not having uploaded the images was interesting; how the heck does HE know he didn't upload the images? Unreliable narrator time!

*eta*
Re: Jay taking it well, I don't think he is. But honestly, how would YOU all react if you suddenly woke up missing 7 months? I know I'd be pretty shellshocked.

 		In regards to the heartbeat noise, if you pay attention the beats correspond to the TV turning off and on. Older TV models make a distinct sound when they're turned on and off. I would assume the sound was coming from the TV being turned on and off repeatedly.

This is beautiful, it can correspond to TTA's anti-hero vague MO. In Entry #####, how he claimed control was being taken away from him, how in 'Warning', he was taunting Jay and his stupid ways of combating the Operator (and the comment of 'failure nigh' in the vid description), and the mask left for Jay in his last escapade at 'the house'.

Perhaps... TTA is pretending to be on Slendy's side for the sake of keeping himself safe, but really is trying to help Jay and Co.?[/spec]

It's a hair/piece of string from the seat that is blown by the a.c.

FFFFFF--

TTA, you nefarious bastard! D: I thought you were secretly a good guy, and then you go and steal a Jay's last seven months!

Honestly, this ties together too well to be unrelated. Brutal. Control WAS taken away from him.
