I just read this whole story...
It's very interesting!
I wonder mostly about what the slender man represents. At first, I thought he was Death. Like, the Grim Reaper. But the more you describe him, the less he seems to be Death. I also wonder what the forest symbolizes.
It's hard to identify with both characters, but Scarlett even more so. Sometimes it's annoying though how low her self-esteem is. . . but at the same time, maybe she is actually psychotic.
I can understand Scarlett being hard to relate for some, because she's the character that I poured a lot of my crippling insecurity and self-defeating tendencies into. She's not psychotic or bipolar, she's just the persona of the "lost child."
Anyway I rant. I'm glad you found it interesting! (:
