Shauna and the baby were probably both going to die. depending on your interpretation of the dream realm, maybe for a time Shauna did die. something brought her back, or kept her from staying there. but it wasn't Mari's "wilderness, I hope Shauna doesn't die" or Travis' well intended but useless blood magic (recall Lottie "can't this just be enough? please?" it was never enough) or even the baby's death covering the symbol on the blanket in blood. those are futile hopes and bargains. the baby was already doomed. and the wilderness doesn't trade, we know this. it chooses. someone has to die. it took Crystal and spared Shauna. Shauna thinks she's been snubbed by the group and by extension the wilderness when it takes Javi and Nat is crowned, but what she fails to see is that she was chosen first. she keeps being chosen! not to die, to live. Coach Martinez dying to put her oxygen mask on. Jackie dying to later feed her. the wilderness taking Crystal (where is her body? it belongs to the wilderness now) to get Shauna through a dangerous labor. Nat dying in her place as the queen of hearts twenty-five years later. maybe it always did like Nat best, but it killed for Shauna first. and it kept killing for her. for girls like Shauna (and for girls like the Wilderness) isn't that just the shape love makes? a knife wound.

Cormac McCarthy will write a scene like:
"Hi," said the First Guy. "What's up?" replied the Second Guy. Then the Third Guy appeared and they walked to McDonald's. They were all wearing hats.
And somehow it's the most emotionally charged prose you've ever read.

So since slender has become more or less the villain of my main creepypasta verse, having played a part why all, if not most of the Pastas have ended up the way they are now- in honour of the old fandom I have created an AU which still good old dad slender with some darker elements and more tragic
I present to you: the Father Slender AU.
- Dude was cursed into what he is now after losing his family in a brutal murder
- He doesn’t take kids to kill them, he takes them in the selfish hopes to adopt them, but the curse ends up killing them
- Very protective and views the Pasta’s as his children, but they also have a toxic/ dysfunctional dynamic going on
- Sally calls him Papa and it gives him so much joy
- They all live in his family’s old mansion and he keeps expanding in the hopes of more residences
TLDR Slender just wants his family back but everything keeps going wrong.
