You can love but you can never know.

So I've been gathering information.

The great thing about being me is I'm an unknown. I'm not a proxy I'm not a runner and I'm not a target so the proxies don't really know or care about me.

As such I can walk right into the apartment and they either just assume I'm supposed to be there or that I'm just a stupid human who has no idea what's going on.

I've only been challenged once and merely acting dumb let me get through it.

So I've learned that the man who crashed into me is named Xerox.

Is it because he can copy himself or something?!

Is he some superpowered monster?!

Nope.

He's the guy who does all the menial tasks and his boss used to work in an office and so he considers him to be a copy boy.

Of course you can't call him copy boy so he calls him Xerox.

Almost makes me feel sorry for him.

Anyway I've decided to wait outside for him to leave again and follow him and jump him when I get the opportunity.

As much as I may feel for him if he doesn't answer my questions I will make him bleed.

Dinner and a slaughter

I'm quite lucky.

As I was heading back home after watching one of my proxy traps I ran into someone.

Literally ran into.

Well actually he ran into me.

Guy comes barreling down the street crashes into me and roughly shoves me out of the way and continues on.

This would have sucked except for one thing.

I spied an operator symbol drawn on his shoulder.

I followed him to an apartment building and I can't believe I didn't notice this place before.

It's a brick building with mostly red brick but on the front of the building there are a number of orange bricks that form a crude operator symbol.

Coincidence?

Could be but the guy with the symbol went in so I'm assuming it's not one.

Gonna watch the place for a bit as I try and decide what to do.

The green eyed monster versus the faceless tall man

Still searching for proxies.

Not much of interest happening.

So have this instead.

Yeah.

Now you know where my title, Url, and description come from.

This song doesn't really have anything to do with this blog.

I just really like the song and find the lyrics suitable creepy and awesome.

Can't think of any romance/dating themed titles at the moment.

So, I had never expected finding proxies to be easy but I guess I had not understood how hard it would be.

I've been searching for a while.

I've even gone the risky route of putting up a couple of operator symbols in obvious places and watching them for anyone who reacts strangely to seeing them.

I realize this could just as easily catch me a runner as opposed to a proxy but it doesn't matter since no one showed any sign of interest in the symbol.

Gonna have to keep looking.

What are the chances there are no proxies around here?

Likes Long walks along paths of black leaves

Alright... Apologies to Gargoyle I judged too quickly.

However it seems I shall have to try and come up with some new tactics.

With the seeming lack of people working against him perhaps it's time to turn my attention to the knowledgeable dark side.

I wonder if there are any proxies in my area.

I shall have to keep a lookout.

She awaits her Slender by the sea.

So Gargoyle recommended I summon Slendy with the Ars Goetia thing.

Gargoyle why do you want me dead?

What part of "I want to find him before he finds me" did you not understand?

I read what happened after and that was not a controlled meeting.

I'm not sure I'll be trusting any further advice from you.

Anyone else got any ideas?

I am: Woman Seeking: Slender Man

So how does one go about finding an inhuman monster that

A. Can teleport

B. Be anywhere in the world

C. Does not, as far as we know, require sleep or nourishment

and D. Has it's own special plane of existence to retreat into that we normal humans can't reach?

Well the best way I can think of is find out where he currently has an interest and just stake out one of those areas until he shows up.

How does one find out where his interests currently lie?

Two possible ways.

1. Read the blogs of those currently being hunted by him and hopefully getting them to inform you of their location so you can stalk them and hopefully catch him in the act of stalking them.

2. Hunt down his minions or their blogs (What kind of servant of a dark master tells people about his day to day operations?) and find a way to get them to spill information or blood.

Which way should I attempt. Well one seems much safer so we'll try that way first. Now I just need to find a good runner blog to track.

You will meet a tall, dark, stranger.

Have you ever heard of The Slender Man?

Of course you have.

If you haven't than get out you're worthless.

I met him once.

When I was 9.

He just appeared beside me one day while I was waiting to cross the street and grabbed some one walking by.

He didn't even notice me.

I watched tentacles grow out of his body and spear into the person repeatedly until they were full of holes.

After that his tentacles squeezed them until they were crushed into a small pile of blood and guts.

He dropped the pile onto the ground and turned to look at me.

One of his tentacles reached out and brushed my head and then he was gone.

He was so fucking awesome.

So now I'm 18 and if I'm right it's around these years that he comes back for people he met as kids.

That's how it works right?

Well I'm going to find him first.

I'm not going to wait for him.

I'm not the kind of girl who let's people keep her waiting.

Eldritch monster or not.
