Jeff went to Liu's funeral, he was wearing a stolen suit that honestly didn't fit well, and he stood in the back with a facemask to hide the smile carved in his cheeks

Jeff also has nightmares about Liu's empty casket. He doesn't know if Liu's body was ever even in it, but the idea that it was haunts him.

Slender is very old, for a living being, but young in the terms of his species evolution. His kind are of course very closely related to humans, there is a reason why only humans can become one of his kind.

He would never tell of course. He finds humans to be unfit for anything other than eating and dislikes being near them.

The Creepypasta's are all technically *not* human

-

There is a vast & intricate world that exists beyond just Slender & the Creepypastas, where other characters fall on a spectrum of powers all in a constant struggle for more of the human plane

-

Slender isn't the only of his kind with Proxies and the Proxies of a bunch of slenders meet up every month or so to speak diplomatically about the needs of their masters.

They also trade contraband like energy drinks, junk food, beer, cigarettes, weed, and other illicit substances. These are primarily gained from victims' houses, but some things are stolen directly from stores

Like they basically have an entire trade and barter system that they use instead of money-

Examples include: 1 pack of cigarettes = 4 energy drinks, 2 beers = 1 small bag of weed, 1 full box of snack cakes = 1 hit of whatever hard drug their looking for

The Proxy economy is booming after any holiday that has candy

This is never a silly ask. I love this. Of course they have fears! I think a lot of their fears stems from their abuse/trauma so it's hard for them to overcome them.

Toby generally doesn't like the proxy mark on his neck being touched

But if he trusts his partner enough, he'll allow them to touch or kiss it for just a moment! Though, that takes a LOT of trust from him, so it might be nearly impossible...

And while we're on the topic of proxy marks:

All proxies (and those under Slenderman's control/influence) have a proxy symbol carved into them somewhere on their body

These people have the option to carve the symbol onto themselves, or have slender do it for them. Whether that be under his mind control, or by his own hand

It's not necessarily painful when Slender leaves his mark on you himself, in fact there are many people with his mark that are unaware of it

Slenderman will use the mark to burn the afflicted as a punishment or a warning

And since Toby can't feel physical pain, it gives him severe mental anguish instead

Depending on their ranking (and if Slenderman likes them) proxies are granted certain invulnerabilities and semi-immortality

Part 1 || Part 2

For my Glitchedverse AU

The first proxy an operator claims is almost always seen as special to the entity

They are usually treated better even if they might not be the strongest ones in the long-run due to the sentiment

These proxies usually have a closer bond to their master due to this favoritism and special treatment

If/when they die, the operator is more likely to bring them back as something less mortal, usually referred to as a Reborn

An example of this is HABIT. He was Slenderman's first proxy prior to becoming the powerful entity he became after being revived during the war with Zalgo However, while he had loyalty to Slenderman and worked as part of the Collective for ages, his desire for power led him to turn his back on his former operator While neither has made a direct attack against the other, the rift is there. As he's no longer human, Slenderman can't force HABIT to bow to his will either

These proxies can greatly influence their master, as their thoughts on matters are usually put into consideration

Weakness in them is usually forgiven much faster, though still corrected through punishment when necessary. Even they aren't immune to suffering the wrath of their boss for failure

Their relationship to other proxies created after them can greatly depend on their own abilities. Respect is earned, not given.

HABIT was actually a strong proxy from the beginning, as Slenderman had chosen carefully. Many resented his brutal leadership but respected him for his power and out of fear His skills were later enhanced by Slender, as they were once close, while he was still human. HABIT was one of the few proxies Slender ever held respect for prior to the entity turning on him

Depending on the operator, sometimes the first proxy can help influence how the entity decides to treat proxies created later on

An example could be the first proxy setting standards to train and command proxies based off positive reinforcement rather than punishment to make them want to obey more readily If the operator is open to ideas they may try it out, seeing it as a way to strengthen their power without as much resistance. Other operators however may see that as a weak way to deal with beings lower than itself and disregard the idea

Not every entity that can create proxies feels sentimental for their first one.

Those who aren't seen as special for being the first are often discarded when deemed useless like any other proxy

Masky has quite the dad bod. What I mean by this is, he's bulky. His muscles aren't heavily defined, but they're there, especially in his arms. Boy slim thicc, skinny legend got me quaking

Toby is lean but muscular. He probably has the lowest body fat percentage out of all three. Very fit and very strong. Probably forced into small spaces (windows, fences) by the other two just because he's the only one that can actually squirm through.

Hoodie is a decent mix between Masky and Toby. He only works his arms, hates leg day.

They compete for your attention 24/7

Threesomes are banned after you tired it once and it ended with the two of them arguing possessively over you.

You double date often since they do behave knowing that dates are very important to you.

Kate tends to be the softer one and is good at comforting you.

Hoodie gives the best advice out of the three of you.l so you normally go to him when you need to talk about issues.

Neither of them are that great at cooking so you tend to cook most meals.

While they do tend to bump heads, they often plan special things for you.

You always make sure to plan for days to spend doing special things with each of them.

You and Kate watch horror movies together and go on nighttime picnics to stargaze on your weekly dates.

Hoodie is more outdoorsy so the two of you usually do something outside all day followed by dinner at the diner where you met.

You’re no longer allowed to be paired with either of them on missions and normally your sent with Masky or Toby.
