Entry #28 has Jay opening a bottle of painkillers/ibuprofen, probably bought for the headaches associated with slender-sickness, so that's probably the pills SpookyCron was thinking of.

Can you please make that link to a bigger picture toclafane212? It looks like a face but it's hard to tell.


ibuprofen are not pain killers. they're pretty much tylenol

Tylenol is acedomenofen. Or however it's spelled.


It's close enough when discussing what it would cure in the series. Ibuprofen pills are just used for headaches and to treat other things (but none of the other things really relate to MH sickness)

Both ibuprofen (Advil) and acetaminophen (Tylenol) can be used as painkillers. Ibuprofen is not known to be particularly potent under normal circumstances (it's what you take when you have a cold or a headache). Acetaminophen can be used in the exact same way, but in high doses can be more dangerous. Not to say that ibuprofen can't be dangerous in high doses...

Additionally: I'm starting to become curious as to what the title "Conversion" means. Maybe the "conversion" of Jay into something darker, even more Alex-like?

It's jay's conversion due to the slender sickness (entry 74 anyone). Tim is conversing into a more normal state due to his meds while jay is slowly deteriorating.

Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory that is often used to ease headaches and sore muscles. It's a pain reliever in that it helps reduce the inflammation that is causing you pain.

That's being pretty literal. When most people think of painkillers they think of oxycodone or hydrocodone, things of that nature. Max Payne pills.

Lol at all these pills I've never heard of, except ibuprofene. You guys should just toughen up. Real men in New Zealand take a couple of paracetamol and she'll be right.

God, the wait for the next entry is killing me. Usually, I'm pretty patient, given that the boys have life, jobs to contend with, but DEAR SWEET GOD, the suspense.

My precious Jay mentally crumbling away...okay, we all knew it was going to be an inevitability happen one day, but still! It happened! (And it hurts) To be honest, it's the first time I've really felt the pinch of waiting.

Still, I know Troseph will more then deliever and it'll be worth the wait. It wouldn't suprise me though to see Jay and Tim arrive at Tim's house to find Alex and Hoody had long since vacated, just to see the effect it had on them. I know some would find it kind of an anti-climax. I still believe we're a long way off from endgame

And then Tim and Jay find the tape, but then TO shows up and Tim's forced to drag Jay out of there to the car. Cool

Concerning the "Are you both of them?"

Maybe it means are you (meaning tim and jay as a group) both of them (meaning hoody and masky)

Considering how much that face looks like to another guy lurking in the TTA videos:

When Hoody is finally revealed, he won't be Brian/Seth/X -- or at least, not how Jay, Tim, Alex, and to an extent us, know him. It will be a Brian/Seth/X who has been so consumed and wasted away by the Operator's influence that all identifying features have been worn away to just a pale, lifeless face and a pair of bright, never blinking eyes that are ALWAYS WATCHING.

Cause MH is known for it's budget busting CGI, amirite?

Gotta say tho, this would be epic nightmare fuel.... But it won't happen. In 73 he was walking on a bridge with cars driving by, implying that he wasn't wearing his mask since that would be sketchy as fuck and someone would have called the cops. Also in 68, Alex confronted Hoody while his face was exposed and told him to wipe the smile off his face, so he still has lips, and I'm guessing the rest of his face too.
