As someone who was influenced by the fandom to dislike Shaun, but eventually realized he wasn't a bad person, here are some reasons not to hate him:

-First of all, he does care about Michael. And that's why he stayed, even when he was Patrick. He may have been immature with uploading that video with Eric, but that's just one of his character flaws. He runs away from his problems, and often doesn't apologize. But that doesn't mean he doesn't love Michael.

Michael is his brother after all. If he didn't care, he would've told HABIT where he was, so he could have his freedom. But he didn't. Shaun died because he was refusing to give away Michael's location in order to protect him. If he didn't care, he wouldn't have tried to contact Michael multiple times (mentioned in ‘A Message from Shaun’), and he would've just ran away, cut contact.

-I believe he's just afraid. His brother is having all of these crazy hallucinations, and saying that he's being followed by an entity that could harm both of them, and anyone close to them. So, Shaun puts some distance. Not because he doesn't care about Michael, but to keep his close ones safe.

-I also believe that their parents have to have had a part in Shaun's mentality. They kept Michael away, probably feeding lies to Shaun as well. Shaun was growing up getting told that his brother was crazy and needed to be locked away in a hospital. So of course, that was what he believed. He didn't believe Michael's words about the grandfather clock for a long time, shrugging them off as Michael being ‘crazy’ once again, even though he himself could remember something about that clock. He didn't even believe Slenderman's existence because he thought Michael was making it up. He was blinded into being afraid of his own blood and flesh, his brother.

(P.S this is all my opinion, and i'm too tired to look through all of the MLA0 videos again, so sorry if this is not lore accurate. i just wanted to ramble lol)

Im running off 3 and a half hours of sleep so here's how long the Slenderverse characters can/do sleep. -Mod Havoc

Jeff:

He needs 8 hours. If he doesn't get 8 hours he's groggy all day. Not even coffee can save him if he doesn't.

Vince:

He's okay on 6 to 7 but he prefers 8 hours of sleep. (He sadly doesn't get 8 due to other circumstances...Evan)

Evan:

People have seen this man sleep in short bursts and still be fine the next day. He's a menace someone stop him.

HABIT:

He keeps himself up as long as he can because he likes the loopy on edge feeling you get when you haven't slept in 24 hours.

Micheal:

Bless his heart, the boy gets awful sleep and he's always tired in some capacity. He needs a good nap.

Shaun:

Like Jeff, he usually sleeps pretty normally. Except he usually can't sleep unless everyone else is.

Patrick:

He takes several naps through the day and that's what he calls sleep. He feels like he always needs to be alert and he's not really wrong.

Noah:

He used to sleep well. Now he gets 5 to 6 hours max because of nightmares or other awful occurrences. He is always tired. (My poor blorbo)

Prebrand:

He either hibernates or doesn't sleep at all. Life's not easy for this poor man.

Firebrand:

Same with Prebrand. But when he sleeps, he can sleep through anything. Dead to the world for 8 to 10 hours.

Milo:

He needs sleep meds to not only stay asleep at night but to also feel tired. After everything he's been though he doesn't get tired until he takes his sleep meds anymore. (SOMEONE NAP WITH HIM)

Kevin:

He's the type to be okay after 6 hours of sleep running on monster and pure spite. Or alternatively sometimes he always wants a nap and his social meter runs out fast if he doesn't get 8 hours.

The Observer:

Doesn't like sleeping. Have you seen him sleep? I certainly haven't. (He's napping in the corner of the room pretending hes awake don't bother him he slept an hour last night)

MLandersen0 Community Posts

okay, here’s a sort of analysis (?) for the recent Mlandersen0 YouTube community posts, because people should talk more about them AND i need to overanalyze everything; so here ya go.

(this is part 1. there are 6 posts up rn, and this post would be WAY too long if i do all 6. so i’ve divided them to 2 parts, will post the other in a few days probably :) 

first post: Antigonish?

Antigonish is a poem written by William Hughes Mearns, which you can read here. 

I'll just write my interpretation, and how I think it relates to mla0: the poem revolves around a man, who is portrayed as a ghost. The speaker/narrator of the poem is clearly scared of this mysterious ghost man, telling him to “go away, go away, don’t you come back any more!” and “go away, go away, and please don’t slam the door…”. Now, as for the connection to mla0, i have two theories: 1. the ‘ghost’ is Slenderman, and it’s from Michael’s point of view. Which i think makes some sense, as the ghost and Slender also appear and disappear mysteriously, and of course, Michael wants him to go away, and 2. it could be about Michael’s guilt and past getting to him. All the people that are dead because of him and his want to protect himself, are haunting him, and the ghost is metaphorical. These are just theories though, so the meaning could be anything really. 

second post: So it goes?

This one is a song by band ‘Matthew and The Atlas’, you can listen to it here. According to an analysis from this website, the song talks about an entity of sorts, lingering around the speaker’s life since he was young. There’s a theme suggesting that the speaker fears the entity, and has never been able to confront it or get some closure on what it wants (as suggested in the chorus: “Deep below the earth I might have found you, High above the tower I could not see”). Also, according to a comment on the Genius page for this song, the song writer Matt Hegardy, explained that when he was young, he was attacked by a man with a knife, later resulting in bad dreams consisting of a figure standing over him. In my opinion, that’s exactly Michael’s relationship with Slenderman. Slender is an entity, plaguing Michael’s mind with nightmares, and basically ruining Michael’s life completely, but he never gets the chance to confront Slenderman, and get the closure he needs. So he’s stuck, being miserable and feeding people to Slenderman, without even knowing why. (also, now that i think about it, this could also be about Patrick. but i’m leaning towards Slenderman)

third post: And they call me a throwback when I cry, “Remember?”

The title is a lyric from the song below, Old Tyme Mem’ry by Erik Petersen. Now, the song’s overall meaning is nostalgia on vintage ways of living, as the song tells the story of a family who had to sell their farm after the death of the father, and how the new owners of the land have no connection to the land, instead opting for luxury and modernity. (thanks to this site i understood that lol, go check it out for a more in-depth analysis of the song) But in general, the atmosphere of the song is one of nostalgia and reminiscing (which is honestly the theme of all of these posts), and that’s why i’m assuming it’s Michael posting these. He’s reminiscing on the past, where everyone was ‘okay’ (as okay as they can be, at least) and alive, but know he’s alone. All he can really do is reminisce, as he has nothing now, no family, no friends. Really, I think he only has Patrick, who probably isn’t very stable, and Slenderman. 

okay that’s all i could find :) thank you for reading, and for anyone who is too bored to read all that, TL;DR: most of the themes of the songs/poems Dylan/Michael have posted have a theme of haunting/nostalgia. So my theory so far is, Michael is alive and living his life in guilt, reminiscing on the past about all of his wrong doings, and all the people who are dead because of him. He’s lonely, guilt-filled and grieving the life he could’ve had, if only everything was okay.

also!! credits to all the websites i linked, the helped me undestand the meanings of all the songs in depth, so of course, lot's of credits to them.

Someday you too Will go to war And by that time may you not fear death anymore --------- Shaun, as inspired by @mla0 :]

[pagodazz]

Ethan you should do Patrick anderson headcanons

THANK YOU MOON I LOVE YOU.

Here we go.

PATRICK ANDERSEN HCS.

he's sososososo special to me and he's so . real and relatable I love him.

DIVERSITY WIN!!! the entity connected to your brother is GAY!!!

Just had to get that one out of the way, and now I can continue.

To me Patrick is someone who is so so UNBELIEVABLY convinced he's a being made for only hate and evil, when in reality he's capable of something more.

I find him to be one of the most interesting slenderverse characters, I mean, he genuinely goes from being feral to remembering every life he's lived and he's just so defeated. he's so alone. He's not human but he's not an absolute monster y'know? and I think being so attached to Michael definitely taught him love.

Patrick is a being full of so much sorrow, he keeps a smile on his face while he knows he'll never get that happy ending he dreams of.

He's SO human for something that is NOT human at all. and HABIT was right for saying that.

-----------------

THIS MAN HAS DISCO FEVER. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.

he THRIVED in the 70s, that's when he was his best. And I firmly believe that's when he realized that humanity could actually be worth something.

Patrick is FULL of funk. I don't know if that makes any sense to anyone, but it does to me. He's genuinely the type of guy to have a victim tied up and he's just dancing to disco music right in front them with the weapon of his choosing and they have no choice but to sit and watch this wannabe theater kid go crazy.

He's so obnoxious but I think it's absolutely amazing. I bet he absolutely KILLED IT in the clubs back in the day.

-----------------

Despite popular belief, Patrick genuinely loves Shaun. Shaun is Patricks everything next to Michael. I think that if he wasn't so afraid of rushing Shaun's death, they would've been alot closer.

They're not siblings in every iteration, but I like to think most of the time they are. I like to think that there was a time that Patrick got to actually love Shaun, but he realized that no matter what he does, he's just going to lose them anyways, so what even is the point?

Although, I genuinely don't think he expected HABIT to cut Shaun up, that REALLY fucking killed Patrick.

Vinnie and HABIT really fucked with the timeline and i mean, that's what Patrick wanted. That's WHY he warned Vinnie back in the 80s.

So I think he blames himself entirely for the loss of both stormy and Shaun. And I mean he's not exactly wrong which is the worst part for him. it quite literally is his fault this keeps happening.

Hes a sick selfish parasite who does nothing but spread diseases to those he cares about.

------------------

Patrick can play many instruments I know that for sure, and I think he can sing.

He's always had just the heart of a performer in him. Like if he had his choice, or his freedom, he would take the first opportunity to climb onto a stage and show off his talents as if to say; "LOOK AT ME!!! IM WORTH SOMETHING!! I HAVE SOMETHING TO GIVE!!"

Because I think no matter what Patrick is always going to remain hungry for attention, and to be loved by many. He wants his chance in the spotlight, he wants his time to shine, and he's gonna do anything he can to get that moment. he KNOWS there's no escaping and no stopping what goes on, but he might as well make himself WORTH something.

--------------

I believe that Patrick has known a previous iteration of the emh guys, (this IS canon, but I think they were friends, and VERY close) But I think that Patrick and Vinnie were the closest.

there's just something about the way he talks to Vinnie in the Princeton tapes, it's as if he's known him his whole life. like he knows exactly what makes Vinnie tick and how he acts and how he'd answer him.

And sure you could say that it was the collective giving that kind of information out, but I would have to DISAGREE!!!!!!!!

Patrick feels solidarity with Vinnies situation and I really like the way they contrast each other.

Vinnie is just a guy who's more like a monster and Patrick is a monster who is more like a guy.

I like them. alot.

------------

I HAVE SO MANY MORE SO PLEASE DONT BE AFRAID TO ASK ME FOR HCS. I LOVE GETTING THEM AND ANSWERING THEM
