The Series
- In "Don't Shoot the Messenger", Stan takes down Dominic, one of Slender Man's proxies, with little to no effort and manages to incapacitate him for a solid few hours. Not only that, but he's able to convince the proxy to defect from Slendy, and then ward him off from Slender Man afterward. Stan's about the best Action Survivor in the Slenderverse that we've seen on camera, and he considers this a part of his normal job. Dominic even comes back in Season 3, having started a support group for victims of the Slender Man. Slightly negated with The Reveal that Dominic didn't actually defect and ended up killing Stan's client and handing her over to the Slender Man, but it's still a badass showing.
- In "Our Monsters" Stan is playing video games with one of his younger clients, before he opens the curtains and discovers Slendy just standing outside the window where they're playing. Does Stan freak out? Ward him off? Try to kill him? Nope, he just flat-out ignores Slender Man, claiming that he's not worth the time. That moment is just as, if not more badass than Firebrand flipping Slendy off in DEUS EX MACHINA.Stan: I stopped being scared of him years ago.
- And, in "The Bedrock", Stan responds to seeing the Slender Man in his house by saying that he's welcome to stay there as long as he likes and, when Slendy continues watching, Stan simply points him to the door. Bad. Ass.
- It's also worth noting that this is after Stan has hit the Despair Event Horizon because of Willow's death.
- In "Amendments", Stan manages to keep The Rake off his back by trapping it in his old room Also a funny moment.Stan: "Evan", right? Fuck you.
- Stan then manages to, in the words of the creator, "intercept his own death" and become a corruptelam.
- In response to Noah Maxwell's Sanity Slippage on twitter
, Stan says this in response:go fish - "Best Friends" has Serena call out Stan for abandoning his responsibilities as a protector, laying into his guilt complex with tough love. Her parting line is particularly scathing.Evan: Just... stay with me. Please...
Serena: Need somebody to talk to? Why don't you go find your wife? If she's not too busy doing your job. - Props to Susan for having enough balls to take up her husband's line of work, even though it eventually got her killed.
- "To Die" has some simplistic yet stellar teleportation work. To describe it here wouldn't do it justice.
- "Reaching Someone" - Stan, upon deciding to get taken by the Slender Man, instead of panicking and running, puts in earbuds and listens to "Get Your Shit Together", while lip-syncing and dancing along with the music.
- Let it be known that Stan is one of the only Slenderverse protagonists to go out on his own terms. Not only that, but he manages to ensure that the videos showing the world what he's done will remain, even after he's erased from history.
