Also, To Add On To That, While We The Audience Know That Tim Isn't An Operator Proxy*, Even While He's

Also, to add on to that, while We The Audience know that Tim isn't an operator proxy*, even while he's wearing the mask* and even while he's wearing the mask he isn't actually the bad guy*, it's totally justified from Jay's perspective for him to think all of those things. he had ample reason to believe Tim is untrustworthy, as from his perspective, he just found out the guy who was stalking him throughout season one was Tim all along, and that the operator followed him wherever Tim went.

Jay distrusting and doxxing Tim makes perfect sense in character, even though we the viewers have more information that at least somewhat exonerates Tim.

*well, okay, some members of the audience still think these things, but they're wrong

but completely agreed !!

it's a part of this mindset people have with horror where people take what They know as an audience (either by being shown information the main character hasn't been privy to or by already having seen how the story is going to play out) and judge the characters for not acting With that information.

We know that tim is safe, that he's a good person just trying to do his best to survive in a scary situation, but Jay Doesn't Know That.

people make fun of jay for trusting alex and then in the same breath make fun of jay for Not trusting tim, when what it comes down to is the Audience already knowing the answer.

it seems like some people really struggle to look at a horror protagonist's actions in the context of what information that character is privy to and the situation that character is In.

"why doesn't my horror protagonist trust the character that's going to help them instantly, why doesn't my horror protagonist already know which characters are gonna hurt them" why does this puzzle game have puzzles

six packs are soo scary and unnatural to me. Put that beast AWAY

My Halloween costume from this year! I dressed up as sal Fisher:3 but I also did a Friday the 13th costume of Jeff the killer with my amazing friend @minnathewhore who did Nina, she also was ash! thinking about maybe doing Alex Kralie next year I made the big guitar out of cardboard almost entirely

Re-watching everymanhybrid, I found I'm Evans height and something clicked in my head so I started working out. If anyone ever asks me why I do, I can't wait to explain to them a short man from a slenderverse arg with mussels gave me enough gender envy to start.

Evan Myers is the equalivent of every short trans man and I stand by that.

Every time I get called emo I can feel my confidence boost but as soon as someone calls me scene core as a compliment my entire being shrivels up like those aliens in Mexico
