TJA Projects

""Amy told me about this story of Slenderman, and, um... It sounded weird - I don't know how scared I am of someone named 'Slender Man'-""

TJA Projects was started on April 4th, 2011, with the original intent of parodying the Slenderman Mythos by mixing it with Borat. The heroines, Amy and TJ, did not know what they were messing with.

The first video is here. And there's a twitter. A helpful Unfiction thread can be found here.

The series concluded on September 27th, 2011 with Answers. The End - or Is It? -

It isn't. Find the room before TJ dies in it.


 * Abandoned Playground: A Walk in the Park
 * Adults Are Useless: Played with. TJ is doing whatever she can to protect her child, although it's arguable as to how effective she can be against Slender Man. Nearly parental figure mentioned in the series does something, even if it is just babysitting.
 * Adult Fear: Heavily, heavily invoked.
 * Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: The antagonists threaten children, terrorize impoverished women, are responsible for ruining the lives of several families...and stole Amy's guitar.
 * The Bechdel Test
 * Blood From the Mouth:
 * The Cameo:  when the girls go out of state. He's looking at a tank.
 * Also
 * Creepy Doll: Dahlia's clown doll.
 * Crossover: With another vlog called 5zer02
 * Distressed Dude
 * Fan Service: Just, fan service.
 * Five-Finger Discount: Pulled by Amy at one point.
 * Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: TJ as the responsible one and her brother as the foolish one.
 * Gainax Ending: With the august happening mostly on Twitter and youtube censoring the ending isn't fully there
 * Glamorous Single Mother: Averted with TJ. Motherhood + Slender Man weirdness is not easy.
 * Growing the Beard: Starts off as a pretty average, low budget Slender vlog with two girls that seems to be on autopilot for the typical Slender Mythos signposts. Then Dahlia is introduced and the audience realizes that the stakes are much higher than just two college girls.
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: TJ and Amy.
 * Both in-game and out-of-game. After a viewer reported them to child services, the two purportedly had problems convincing them that they weren't a couple.
 * Hot Mom: TJ
 * Humanoid Abomination: Slender Man as always.
 * Infant Immortality: Tension over whether this trope is played straight or subverted fuels much of the series.
 * Jittercam
 * The Medic: TJ is a nurse. A nurse that carries a knife and a handgun.
 * No Medication for Me: Amy starts off this way.
 * High Octane Nightmare Fuel: It's to be expected.
 * Papa Wolf: Jake.
 * Physical Scars, Psychological Scars:.
 * Practical Joke: This is what the girls initially think is happening.
 * Real Life Writes the Plot: As of the 06/10/11 Update entry, the girls mention joining the military to solve their financial problems. Apparently, the creators are actually planning to start basic training in January 2012.
 * A lot more of it actually, as one of the creators mention in an OOG blog post.
 * Even more with the ending OOG Blog.
 * It Got Worse, TJA has been discontinued.
 * Sanity Slippage
 * Self -Harm:.
 * Shout-Out: Mostly to other works which feature children in peril.
 * Not to mention the obligatory "20 dollars" meme.
 * References to other slender series are made by the main characters as well.
 * Slender Man Mythos
 * Talkative Loon:  in Look at the Liar
 * Teen Pregnancy: TJ with Dahlia.
 * Also,
 * Very Loosely Based on a True Story: Patricia Pearl Tripp (aka Sight) was actually a kidnapping victim . Involvement of Slender Man not actually true. We hope.
