If you had a choice, would you prefer to be a proxy or a victim?

If you are a victim you will eventually disappear but as a proxy you have little to no free will.

I'd rather be a victim.
I think I'd enjoy being chased by Slendy.

Well, being a slightly masochistic son of a bitch I think I would like to be a victim. I mean... Yeah. What more can I say other than I think, even if I would be terrified, I think I'd enjoy being stalked and turned crazy! At least that would put some excitement into my otherwise boring life.

I would prefer to be a victim. I'd rather have at least a small chance of survival. And while I SERIOUSLY do not think being stalked by Slendy would be an enjoyable experience, it'd be better than being his bit**proxy.

No contest, I would be a Proxy. I have the mask already, All I need to do is put on my hooded cloak and I'm ready to stalk MH style.

The hell kind of Slender stories are you watching/reading?


I'm going the victim route. Not that I'd last very long as a victim, as my response to seeing Slendy outside my window would be to run out there and try to punch him. Which would result in my instant demise in an incredibly violent and graphic manner, only for my remains to be found hanging from a tree the next day. But at least it would be an awesome way to go.

I'd go for the type of Proxy that generally shows up only in blogs.

You know, the kind that has a relatively well-outlined power structure with other Proxies, complete with email newsletter, and complete control over their own free will. They just happen to work for the Operator. Some of them think he's God, some of them think he's Daddy, some of them just figure he's the winning team.
Sure, the chances of becoming a murderer are pretty good, but Runners have that chance too. Everyone just wants to survive, and I definitely think that working for Slender Man would be a decent way to keep him from killing you.

'Course, you might still get killed by a wild boar or something while stalking people in the woods, but better than getting quartered by an outer god in a suit.

Same here. This might sound stupid, but besides the fact that I'll eventually die, I actually do want to be stalked by slendy.

Depending on the flavor: Proxie. Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer.

I think being a proxy would be safer than being stalked, not until it turns nasty though and you have to stalk a friend

I would go victim. Because, seriously, from every proxy thing I've seen or read it's basically joining a Cthulhu cult of sorts (joining up to make sure you get eaten first when the real end comes, whilst staving off death in the short term. And you probably go insane, which wouldn't be good).

Plus, if I was a victim, I could at best try and pull an Omega or Arkady and go out awesomely. Or at worst I could pull a Frap. Either way, it's the victims life for me. A slow, drawn out breakdown, followed by a fast and messy end.

Definitely a victim. Voluntarily becoming a proxy requires a certain degree of being horrendously evil that I don't have, and in involuntary cases, you're pretty much just a victim who gets used as a living puppet to stalk, kill, and/or proxy-ify others.

I will not be used as a tool to inflict pain and misery upon others. I will not serve under anyone, let alone the Slender Man.

I'd probably just take a third option and blow my brains out. I'm not going to be played with by an eldritch beast either.

I'd take victim. At least I know what side I'd be playing for when the end came, while the proxy can't figure out what year it is.
