History TearJerker / MarbleHornets

** [[spoiler:Tim's [[HeroicBSOD anguished sobs and vomit]] sure don't make things better...]]

**** Or he could have razor blades for some other purpose. This one knows a lot of people who prefer loose razor blades to mounting them in a razor because they feel it offers them more precision and control.
** Hoody's actions get a bit more tragic in light of Entry #73, which implies that [[spoiler: he's suffering from full-fledged Slendersickness and only stole the pills because he desperately needed them himself.]]

* The Ending of Entry #86. [[spoiler:Unless we get an Entry #87, it's heavily implied that ''everyone is now dead''.]]

* What is the one thing that a severely depressed person like Tim needs to hear? "Everything that has happened is your fault! And it's not going to end until you're dead! So I'll tell you what: if you don't do the right thing and burn to death, come and find me". I honestly wondered for a moment if Tim would take Alex's advice.

** A relatively minor one, but given that he wasn't a murderous psycho at the time, I felt bad for Alex when it became clear that nobody besides Brian and Tim were coming to his auditions.

* Entry #84 seems innocent, showing Tim and Brian auditioning for Alex's movie. But at the end, Tim realizes that [[spoiler: Brian is wearing the same sweater as the Hooded Masked Man]]. This leaves him to question one thing: If he had known that [[spoiler: Brian, his best friend, was totheark, would he still have killed him?]] In the end, he says that he knows Alex is watching the video, and dares him to come find him.

* Entry #83: Tim is at the college, possibly retracing Jay's steps. [[spoiler: in the midst of a severe coughing fit, he hears movement, and immediately calls out Jay's name. Hoping against hope that Jay somehow escaped The Operator like Tim did in #65. He didn't.]]

* Entry #82:Tim finds a video on Jay's laptop that that takes place a day before #77. [[spoiler: Jay calls Tim from Rosswood and leaves a message saying that he's sorry and wants to patch things up between them. But then The Operator attacks him, presumably causing his violent and unhinged behavior in #77. If that hadn't happened, Tim and Jay would've worked things out, and the terrible chain of events that happened (including Jay's apparent death) might have been prevented.]] Even worse, Tim [[spoiler:never got that message.]]

* Entry 81 ends with the reveal that [[spoiler:someone stole all of Tim's medication from his bag. The medication that is the only thing preventing him from turning into Masky. His only known protection from the influence of the Operator. Tim is not only completely alone now, he is also totally defenseless against his enemies.]]

His only known protection from the influence of the Operator. Tim is not only completely alone now, he is also totally defenseless against his enemies.]]

** Tim [[spoiler:running through the building, desperately searching for Jay, crying out for him after finding the camera and the bloodstain. You can hear the heartbreak and failure in his voice, knowing that he unintentionally led the closest thing he's ever had to an ally to a horrific fate.]]

-->'''Tim''': [[spoiler: This wasn't supposed to happen.]]

* Probably something everyone saw coming, but it doesn't lessen the impact. In Entry 80, [[spoiler: Jay enters the building where Alex supposedly is. Jay finds Alex but is shot immediately and dies, and has his body is presumably taken away by the Operator. Tim has taken over the channel and the final words in the entry are heartbreaking and simple. "I don't know what to do."]]

* Entry #77: [[spoiler: Just when it seemed like they were becoming friends, Jay's recent paranoia and SanitySlippage has caused him to slip so far from the protagonist we've always known him as that as a result, Tim has taken his camera, left him tied up in his house, and has now taken over the Youtube channel.]]

** [[spoiler: It's even worse than that. Jay saw the tape and seems to blame Tim for it, despite it being clear that A) Tim wasn't himself, literally, and B) Masky was trying to save Jessica. Jay's sanity has slipped that far.]]

** [[spoiler:Masky wasn't attacking Jessica in the hotel; he was ''protecting'' her. Likewise, Hoody stood guard over her until she woke up, and stayed with her until Alex drove him off at gunpoint. Even with that, he ''still'' followed them and waited for an opening to allow Jessica to escape. And with all that, she still ends up attacked and left on the side of the road, Masky getting to her mere seconds after she was taken by the Operator. Masky's aura of failure is almost palpable in the aftermath of that, as he slowly takes off his mask and stands there, [[WildMassGuessing likely blaming Jay and Alex for slowing him down with that broken leg]], which is what stopped him from getting there in time to save her from getting taken.]]

* Entry #76: [[spoiler:Things got worse. The search for Jessica was hopeless all along; Alex killed her and left her corpse for the Operator around the time Jay left the hotel they were at, and apparently Tim had something to do with it.]]

* Entry #76: [[spoiler:Jessica is gone, and has been since Jay's left the hotel]]

* Entry #75: [[spoiler:Jay has attacked Tim and, feeling betrayed that Tim was keeping secrets from him, has left him behind. Jay really is alone now, with no home, no friends, and Tim has implied that if he watches the tape, that things will get even worse.]]

* entry #73: We find out that [[spoiler: Hoodie needs the same medication Tim needs, which requires him to scrounge his hiding spots repeatedly and steal it from peoples' houses if it comes to it. While his goals are still unclear, like Entry #68, it's humanizing for him and it's hard not to feel sorry for him.]]

** Slightly less despressing theory: [[spoiler:some people use razor blades to cut pills in half, such as when their dosage has been adjusted.]]

** Hoody's actions get a bit more heartwrenching in light of Entry #73, which implies that [[spoiler: he's suffering from full-fledged Slendersickness and only stole the pills because he desperately needed them himself.]]

* Entry #71: Jay learns two very important things: That he cannot trust his own memory, and in one of the blackouts that he cannot remember, [[spoiler:Alex beat him senseless and left him to the Operator's tender mercies.]]
