This. This. I didn’t have the best home growing up and I used to wish that slenderman would take me away from mine and let me live in the mansion, it used to be a beautiful thought for me, who gives a fuck that it’s out of Charecter?? I used to wish I could meet masky, hoodie, Toby, jack, and for some reason wanted to flip of Jeff but also try to get along with him. It’s in my diary’s from when I was younger! So, even if it’s not realiztic, let people have this. Because it’s hard enough without others shitting on how you feel or your ideas.
Potential unpopular take but…
I don’t like it when people give others shit for like the Slendermansion stuff or making the Creepypastas and slendermythos act like a family.
Is it realistic? No. Can it be a little out of character for the creeps? Yeah. Is it hurting anyone other than maybe being mildly annoying? No.
It’s not a bad thing to want to pretend that these fake serial killers and monsters and whatnot are living together and having the best found family moments when they aren’t out killing people. Some of us needed to believe in that when we were younger, and some people need that now.
Besides, everyone is deserving of normalcy, God knows Tim/Masky craves it, so why not write them not being murderers and suffering through life
When I was little, like nine or something, I wasn’t in an abusive household but I was being bullied at school, and when I cried myself to sleep, I cried hoping that Slenderman or Toby or someone would come take me away to the Slendermansion and I’d be away from it all.
Should little kids be reading Creepypasta stuff? No, but we did and they’re able to find it. So why not let it be something that makes them feel safe, even for a moment, even though it isn’t real.
Who cares if it’s “not what they’d do”? It’s what I, and a lot of other people, needed them to do. So who cares
