Arron and Nick have been friends for about ten years. But after Nick's parents are hurt in a car crash, Arron takes Nick in and they start living as roommates. Wanting to cheer Nick up, Arron convinces Nick to make a vlog with him and put it on YouTube. Being [[Creator/HPLovecraft Lovecraft]] fans, they call it Strange Aeons. However, the vlog quickly falls apart after Nick becomes depressed and antisocial, avoiding cameras at all times. Wanting to do everything he can to help his friend, Arron starts posting all the videos he took of Nick on the vlog channel, to create some form of documentation in case Nick were to seek help. He soon discovers that whatever was affecting him may have been more than just depression.
Strange Aeons is a recent entry into the ever-expanding [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man Mythos]], having started in early July 2012. Like most vlogs of late, it starts off with a few videos where not much happens, focusing on the relationship between Arron and Nick. But it soon takes a hard left turn into "what the hell is going on?!" territory, especially when Arron ceases being the only one contributing to the channel.

!! The story provides examples of:
*AdultsAreUseless: Where the hell are Arron's parents?! [[spoiler:Couldn't they help him with finding Nick?]]
**It's justified with Nick's parents because, you know, they're seriously injured.
*[[ArcSymbol Arc Symbol(s)]]: Two glyphs have appeared in the series so far. What they mean, we have no idea yet.
*BreatherEpisode: "Atlantic City". For the first time in weeks, Nick seems happy and healthy. [[spoiler:At least until he goes for a glass of water.]]
*ClusterFBomb: Nick can swear a blue streak when he's mad.
*DaylightHorror: Almost the entire series takes place in the daytime. That makes it no less scary.
*FreezeFrameBonus: If you pause at the right time in "SA Vlog #6", you can see a familiar face peeking out the [[spoiler:castle]] window.
*GenreSavvy: Arron is a big fan of the [[TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man Mythos]]. He has tried multiple times (unsuccessfully) to get Nick into the fandom.
**Arron also showed Artie [[MarbleHornets Marble Hornets]] after "no he didnt" was posted to get her up to speed.
*HeterosexualLifePartners: Nick and Arron have been friends for ''at least'' ten years.
*HiddenInPlainSight: [[spoiler:The legs behind the curtain]] in "Compilation" don't move until the end of the video. But at that point, the audio burst distracts you from noticing them.
*HostileShowTakeover: The man in the jumpsuit has posted videos on Arron's channel several times.
*MeaningfulBackgroundEvent: Check out the top of the curtain at the end of "Compilation".
*MindScrew: You'll more often than not have no idea what's going on when watching the series.
*NoFourthWall: Arron and Nick have frequently interacted with fans of the series.
**It was in fact a fan's tweet to Arron that tipped Nick off to the "documentation" videos.
*PoliceAreUseless: Sometime after "SA Vlog #5", Arron called the police to report [[spoiler:Nick missing]]. So far, nothing has come up.
*RealLifeWritesThePlot: Luke, the co-creator, really is in college in Boston.
*SanitySlippage: Nick started talking to himself and compulsively drawing before [[spoiler:he went missing]].
*SeinfeldianConversation: One that even references {{Seinfeld}}, in "Compilation".
*TheSlenderManMythos: A very new addition, and very popular for its age.
*SmashCut: In "SA Vlog #5", which turned to out to be [[spoiler:footage that Arron took and later uploaded in "Addendum".]]
**Also in "SA Vlog #6". The clip hasn't been explained yet.
*TemptingFate:
--> '''Artie''': If you're sure there's no Slender Man, then...
--> '''Arron''': Well, of course there isn't. We can operate on that assumption, right?
*ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight: A door slam and a [[spoiler:whisper]] in "Atlantic City".
*ThoseTwoGuys: Nick and Arron.
*UnreliableNarrator: Possibly Arron. He claimed that he couldn't see the clips in which the Slender Man makes an appearance, but suddenly could after "no he didnt" was posted.
*UrbanLegend: Arron says he believes the Slender Man to be this in "'no he didnt' Talk".
*WhamEpisode: "Addendum" shows that Nick is more disturbed than we thought. And that he's in so much more danger than he knows.
**"The 'Missing' Posters" shows ''something'' leaving its mark on a [[spoiler:blanked-out missing poster]] of Nick.
**"no he didnt" is a seemingly inexplicable clip that is filmed by neither Nick nor Arron. But whoever did film it, has the same pursuer as Nick.
**"didnt mean to" is another video by the guy who uploaded "no he didnt". Wee see that he is clad in some sort of jumpsuit as he emerges from the forest.

Arron and Nick have been friends for about ten years. But after Nick's parents are hurt in a car crash, Arron takes Nick in and they start living as roommates. Wanting to cheer Nick up, Arron convinces Nick to make a vlog with him and put it on YouTube. Being [[HPLovecraft Lovecraft]] fans, they call it Strange Aeons. However, the vlog quickly falls apart after Nick becomes depressed and antisocial, avoiding cameras at all times. Wanting to do everything he can to help his friend, Arron starts posting all the videos he took of Nick on the vlog channel, to create some form of documentation in case Nick were to seek help. He soon discovers that whatever was affecting him may have been more than just depression.
Strange Aeons is a very recent entry into the ever-expanding [[TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man Mythos]]. Like most vlogs of late, it starts off with a few videos where not much happens, focusing on the relationship between Arron and Nick. But it soon takes a hard left turn into "what the hell is going on?!" territory, especially when Arron ceases being the only one contributing to the channel. It has recently taken a break (the break starting with a video called "Abeyance", no less), but it seems like it can come back at any time. Its YouTube page can be found [[http://www.youtube.com/user/StrangAeons here]], along with [[strike:Nick and]] Arron's [[http://twitter.com/strangaeons Twitter page]].
----
!! The story provides examples of:
*AdultsAreUseless: Where the hell are Arron's parents?! [[spoiler:Couldn't they help him with finding Nick?]]
**It's justified with Nick's parents because, you know, they're seriously injured.
*[[ArcSymbol Arc Symbol(s)]]: Two glyphs have appeared in the series so far. What they mean, we have no idea yet.
*BreatherEpisode: "Atlantic City". For the first time in weeks, Nick seems happy and healthy. [[spoiler:At least until he goes for a glass of water.]]
*ClusterFBomb: Nick can swear a blue streak when he's mad.
*DaylightHorror: Almost the entire series takes place in the daytime. That makes it no less scary.
*FreezeFrameBonus: If you pause at the right time in "SA Vlog #6", you can see a familiar face peeking out the [[spoiler:castle]] window.
*GenreSavvy: Arron is a big fan of the [[TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man Mythos]]. He has tried multiple times (unsuccessfully) to get Nick into the fandom.
**Arron also showed Artie [[MarbleHornets Marble Hornets]] after "no he didnt" was posted to get her up to speed.
*HeterosexualLifePartners: Nick and Arron have been friends for ''at least'' ten years.
*HiddenInPlainSight: [[spoiler:The legs behind the curtain]] in "Compilation" don't move until the end of the video. But at that point, the audio burst distracts you from noticing them.
*HostileShowTakeover: The man in the jumpsuit has posted videos on Arron's channel several times.
*MeaningfulBackgroundEvent: Check out the top of the curtain at the end of "Compilation".
*MindScrew: You'll more often than not have no idea what's going on when watching the series.
*NoFourthWall: Arron and Nick have frequently interacted with fans of the series.
**It was in fact a fan's tweet to Arron that tipped Nick off to the "documentation" videos.
*PoliceAreUseless: Sometime after "SA Vlog #5", Arron called the police to report [[spoiler:Nick missing]]. So far, nothing has come up.
*RealLifeWritesThePlot: Luke, the co-creator, really is in college in Boston.
*SanitySlippage: Nick started talking to himself and compulsively drawing before [[spoiler:he went missing]].
*SeinfeldianConversation: One that even references {{Seinfeld}}, in "Compilation".
*TheSlenderManMythos: A very new addition, and very popular for its age.
*SmashCut: In "SA Vlog #5", which turned to out to be [[spoiler:footage that Arron took and later uploaded in "Addendum".]]
**Also in "SA Vlog #6". The clip hasn't been explained yet.
*TemptingFate:
--> '''Artie''': If you're sure there's no Slender Man, then...
--> '''Arron''': Well, of course there isn't. We can operate on that assumption, right?
*ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight: A door slam and a [[spoiler:whisper]] in "Atlantic City".
*ThoseTwoGuys: Nick and Arron.
*UnreliableNarrator: Possibly Arron. He claimed that he couldn't see the clips in which the Slender Man makes an appearance, but suddenly could after "no he didnt" was posted.
*UrbanLegend: Arron says he believes the Slender Man to be this in "'no he didnt' Talk".
*WhamEpisode: "Addendum" shows that Nick is more disturbed than we thought. And that he's in so much more danger than he knows.
**"The 'Missing' Posters" shows ''something'' leaving its mark on a [[spoiler:blanked-out missing poster]] of Nick.
**"no he didnt" is a seemingly inexplicable clip that is filmed by neither Nick nor Arron. But whoever did film it, has the same pursuer as Nick.
**"didnt mean to" is another video by the guy who uploaded "no he didnt". Wee see that he is clad in some sort of jumpsuit as he emerges from the forest. He pours a ring of salt around the entrance to a bus stop, for unknown reasons. Whether he meant to or not, [[spoiler:he's teleported away when he stops to rest]].
**"seeing me again" is the whammiest episode yet. Jumpsuit Guy wakes up the next day in the same place he started in "didnt mean to". He finds [[spoiler:the ring of salt dissolved by water and a glyph marking the floor of the bus stop.]] He runs until he reaches the front of a building. [[spoiler:He then marks the railing around a sunken window with the same glyph seen in "The 'Missing' Posters".]] Then we hear a faint voice coming from the window. [[spoiler:Nick's voice. From the clip in "Compilation" and in real time, right after Arron and Nick filmed "SA Vlog #1". [[ParanoiaFuel THIS IS ARRON'S HOUSE.]]]] And THEN we see him pour a ring of salt around the entrance, only for Slendy to appear [[JumpScare ''right behind him'']].
*WhamLine: "Well, you did tell me to be honest." has been used twice so far in two very whammy, VERY different contexts.
