I read all of the EverymanHybrid 2012 posts, and this one, 2013.

If you're feeling really masochistic, check out the 2010 and 2011 threads. Any fresh insights? Always nice to see a new perspective.

Fresh insights: This took me a while and I still have more perspectives for theories. I might be reading into the deeper meaning too far, but at the same time they did call the youtube channel everymanHYBRID.
As it comes to Everyman as an allegory (In reference to the everyman play)...

Death=Slenderman
Firebrand=Evan
Guardian=Vinny
Doctor=Dr. Corenthal

Everyman=Habit and by extension: Evan, Vinny, Jeff.
Habit is mankind in general, which has a tenancy to fight and kill each other. Habit originally has an affect on all three everyman (like when they kill the deer). Evan gives in to bad habits, (ex. Help to fight the rake when they are at Jessie's house and when Nick is attacking Evan he lets HABIT in to help). While Vinny and Jeff stop giving in to bad habits. That is why Habit currently only inhabits Evan not Vinny or Jeff.
In the play, Everyman bargains with death.
In the video Habit and slenderman have some conversations.

The following characters abandon everyman on his journey to death:

Fellowship=Society
The cops don't help, 911 doesn't work.

Goods=Evan's knives
Evan buries a knives in the first trail and he think they will protect/help him. But in the end, they don't.

Strength and discretion
Well in the face of slenderman nothing seems to help. These characters could be Nick and Daniel?

Five-Wits=Sparky
The five-wits are the five senses, touch, hearing ect.
Sparky tries to alert Alex to danger.

Beauty(vanity)=Vinny's beard
Hear me out. This is the best explanation I have for Vinny's beard disappearing in the entry where Alex disappears, in proximity to slenderman.

Cousin=friends=Jessalyn, Jessie, Lexi, Ryan,

Kindred=Family=Alex, parents,

-------------------------------

Knowledge=Steff?
In the play, knowledge is specifically knowledge of sin. Knowledge leads everyman to confession and thus reviving good-deeds. Knowledge only betrays everyman at the very end, hence Steff not being around in the candleverse scene.
A different kind of Knowledge abandons Jeff at the end.

Confession=?

Good-Deeds is revived by confession(Penance) and accompanies everyman to death (saving him from hell). Guesses—

Good-deeds=Rabbits
Rabbits feed our habits

Good-deeds=The rake
I don't know how they could revive him so they might be screwed if the rake is good-deeds.

Good-deeds=Evan and Steff's baby

Alternatively:
Evan=Everyman
Vinny=Knowledge
Jeff=Good-deeds
Meaning Jeff will be revived by confession.

The characters depend on whether a character from one everyman story can represent more than one character from the other. Or whether each character is a 1-1 relationship with the other character.

I agree with these observations, with the caveat that Dr. Corenthal is trying to change what is happening(to some extent) but he does fit the "moral" giver of the story by being the only character who could be alive after this is all over.

Agree.

I'm assuming since the characters in the play are allegories for human characteristics... could Steff be Fear? Hopelessness? Victim? Etc.? I mean in most of her ICANSEETHEWORDS posts(been awhile) she seems scared, frightened, upset, etc. Hopelessness/Victim could be her being raped(was she? I always assumed it was HABIT'S baby, and it was convieved via a rape. I maybe remembering wrong) and having the baby, kind of like a victim.

Could Confession be the videos? Kind of like "We tried! We really did! We tried to be good people.", the idea just came to me so...

Idk about these, I'd assume the handwritten characters(Firebrand, Voyeur, and Guardian) have to be the 3 guys or Steff or Dr. C. So they can't be those; NOW they could be more than 1 character/allegory so...

I'm pretty sure the baby was conceived from Evan and Steph having consensual sex.

Kinda OOG:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I recall someone asking one of the boys (Jeff, I assume) and him confirming OOG that the baby was not a product of rape.


This info was then posted in the Unfiction thread, where I read it. Unfortunately, I'm not sure where to look for proof of this outside of combing the old EMH threads. And I'm too lazy to do that Razz

you will soon be gifted valuable information from our mutual acquaintance as per our agreement. be wary, he's a dangerous one. ~ F


New tweet suggests that we will be seeing the crossover video we've been expecting between TT and EMH here pretty soon, as the 'dangerous mutual acquaintance' is almost certainly HABIT, going by prior videos.

My first thought was Lee from Whispered Faith, as he's currently missing having been attacked by the Rake. My roommate thinks it was the person referred to on the whietboard "Diner - probably drunk".

Ah...guys, you might want to take a look at this:

I'm pretty sure that it is Michael, not Noah.

Please refer to these two images:
Guy behind door #2
Michael, as we last saw him

If you look at the wristband in each image, you will notice some correlation: both people have two wristbands, and both wristbands are on the left hand, whereas Noah's single wristband was on his right.

Furthermore, if you re-watch that scene and compare it with the image of Michael, you may notice a couple more things: the body types and hair colors are the same.

Even more, if you re-watch MLAndersen0, you may notice that Michael moves in very similarly to how the guy behind door #2 moves.

Finally, OOG:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Not only has TribeTwelve been stated to have crossed-over with MLAndersen0, but the MLAndersen guys and the EMH guys are good friends (can't remember my source). A crossover between EMH and MLA0 makes sense.


EDIT: One last thought -- remember how HABIT said that he was expecting "visitors"? As in, plural? If it was Noah/Firebrand, that would only count as one person. However, what if it was both Firebrand and Michael? That would count as two. That would even explain the opening door in "A Summoning."

Thoughts?

EDIT: Curses, confirmed OOG moments before I post. I have amazing luck.
