Yeah that fits well. So I really am wondering why she isn't decomposed. Also I'm wondering when they're going to make all of this fit with the season one "ending" because, whikle I'm not sad at all to see more videos, I thought it was a solid ambiguous ending. Now I rewatched it and am trying to reinterpret it but it's hard.



Due to the embalming process bodies don't actually decompose for a while.


Well we don't really know what happened to Stormy after she died. I get the impression that her family/etc weren't informed and I doubted she was given a proper burial given the nature of her death, but I guess that's up to interpretation since Michael and Shaun didn't tell us.

Ah, that's true. I need to rewatch the series to remind myself of these details. Maybe whoever put her there kept her on ice? Confused

Well Michael has some explaining to do.

Yeah, obviously Michael cares about Shaun or Habby wouldn't be using him as bait. Patrick warned Shaun about Stormy's impending death too. So I would take Habit's story with a grain of salt (unless, of course, they want to change the backstory of Patrick's switching sides from evil to good).

In a way, it's such a pity. This was one of my favorites out all the series when it started, more subtle and believeable. Maybe someday they will describe how they originally planned to end it (before they came to be such buddies with the EMH creators and jumped on the Habit train). I don't blame them for wanting to close out their series though... they gave us a good ride!

Be interesting to see Patrick go against Habit too. Maybe they are insinuating that Patrick is a being that possesses people like good ol' Habby.

All of anything HABIT says should be taken with a grain of salt, he is manipulative and will say anything to anyone in order to get what he wants. And then he'll torture them for fun, as seen in the latest video. That being said, I do believe HABITs whole plan here is to lure Michael by slandering his name in front of his own brother, but I do believe that there is a spot of truth to what HABIT is saying. Perhaps Michael knows more about how to use his manipulative inhabiting beast (Patrick) to call important life or death decisions including the tall guy than he leads us on to believe. Michael always pretends he has no idea what has been happening when he was under the influence of Patrick...but what if that wasn't the case? This is the big question this video raises for me.

I always assumed that, the "alternate persona" created in order to protect Michael was just a cheap excuse "Patrick" used to put Shaun at ease. Patrick obviously has some other-worldly knowledge no human would have at their disposal, and Patrick knows how to get away with CLOSE contact with Slenderman and come out unscathed other than the pre-existing mental conditions that Michael/Patrick share. So, I do believe Patrick is a separate entity, not a branch off of Michaels own personality. And I also believe Michael is fully aware about most aspects of Patrick, just as knowing of Michaels faults and flaws. So, it will be very interesting to see if they pit Patrick against Habit, as it sounds as if the two entities have some history and Michaels will to survive will be a key component if the two timeless beings come together and do battle.

The way HABIT is describing it, it almost seems like Michael is himself a timeless being that has lasted a long long time against Slender Man. It makes it sound like he's done this before, to other families and people. Like he's wandered through the ages. Slender Man learned that Michael will keep 'feeding' him in this manner, and so he continues to follow and torture him, forcing him to go from place to place and family to family because he knows Michael will deliver.

I am actually inclined to believe HABIT's story. It kind of makes sense. He's manipulative and lying. He's a survivor and will do whatever is necessary to escape. Almost like a weaker god being constantly coerced by a much much stronger god. If there's a being like HABIT and the Rake that can resist but also co-exist with Slender Man (who is still think is the strongest of all the 'other' creatures), I don't see why there can't be an immortalized man who runs.

If this is the case though, I don't see why HABIT would want to get involved in this guy's life. Still, it's an interesting thing to think about.

Well, considering Patrick/Michael was introduced before they met the EMH guys, I'm sure they had to alter his backstory to fit the new crossovers (that is if Habit isn't lying about him).

If Michael didn't care, why should he come after Shaun?

Also, I think we saw at least part of the aftermath of the Michael/Habit battle...
in TT's Severance video we see a bloodied Michael (or at least the actor who plays him) coughing and collapsing in Habit's bathroom.

Prehaps to remove a pawn from the picture? HABIT does things that HABIT does, we don't necessarily know what they mean or why but he sure does love to torture and kill to get his knowledge and his way. If that means another timeless being or even worse for HABIT another "iteration" character will get knocked out of the picture, you better believe HABIT is gonna get on that shit so he doesn't end up in a checkmate with stick-in-the-mud, thus ending his iteration/immortal life.

EDIT: Also, he wants the arms. We don't know why, but he really wants the clock arms. That's probably his main driving force, but more importantly that would give him a leg up on ol' slendy.

That is one of the main things if not the only thing HABIT lied about, Michael cares deeply for Shaun as we can see, whether this is a fluke in his programming regarding survival or a soft spot Shaun has left in Michael/Patricks heart, I can't say for certain, but I can tell that Michael DOES in fact care about Shaun otherwise he wouldn't have been affected so heavily in terms of emotions when Shaun yells at him or gives him a negative vibe. This is all bait for HABIT, he knows the position Michael and Shaun were in before he set up to take Shaun, and I believe he intends to take advantage of that.

And that's an interesting point with the bloodied Michael, perhaps they do in fact engage in immortal battle. That's gonna be a fucking ride man.

I don't believe a word that HABIT said to Shawn. Maybe I can believe that Patrick has a bit more to his character than we thought before, but I don't believe the whole story about Michael. We know that HABIT's goal was to break Shawn, and, as we can see, that is exactly what he did. The best lies have a speck of truth in them, a hint of believability.

Anyone notice how HABIT acknowledged that there are two personalities in Michael, and yet, he attributed Patrick's horrible actions to Michael? Once again, it seems to me like HABIT cared less about telling the truth and more about breaking Shawn.

I agree with the people who say that his goal is the lure Michael. By slandering his name on camera and by torturing his brother, HABIT has virtually guaranteed that Michael will come "to the rescue." And, based on what we saw in "Severance", it won't end well.

Also, did anyone notice the breath? It is May, and they were in an attic. I think that this video took place in the winter, obviously not long after the other MLAndersen videos, the latest of which we know are outdated. These videos probably are filling in the gap between "A Summoning" and "Severance."

SignerJ, once again you are dead on with what I'm thinking in terms of speculation. I agree Shaun is bait, and I also agree HABIT lied about Michael because of those inconsistencies (in terms of Michael/Patricks personality traits getting mixed up) you pointed out that I didn't even notice before, only reinforcing what I thought. And the breath is a VERY good point, I was assuming it may be because HABITs presence is causing cold (like a spectral entity or whatnot), but then again breath wasn't visible when Jeff was being tortured (at least I don't think so), so you may very well be right with the speculation that this particular video is time-wibbly-wobbly and most likely occurred during the winter canon wise.

Hey all, the original Media Meltdown server is kaput because fuck Blip, so here's the Anderson Journals interview with Dylan and Austin from early 2012 reposted to Youtube.

... and I just noticed it's misspelled with an O instead of E. Derp. Will fix.

The hell happened to Michael? Where has he been and why hasn't he or Patrick saved Shaun?
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
To me, it looks like he was in some sort of trance from when he wrote those comments to the middle of the video journal.
