They Call Us Keepers

""That's why I'm a Keeper. I keep things that people need. That's why they call us keepers.""

- Just Basics, the first post

TheyCallUsKeepers/Let us Live/Let Us Keep Living is the blog of Jeff ("Just Jeff"), a teenager who decides to chronicle events pertaining to The Slender Man Mythos. Naturally, it goes horribly wrong. Unlike other blogs, Jeff's decline doesn't come after a slow descent into madness, but instead after he decides to give himself over to the Slender Man to be with Nessa.

And that's when the blog gets interesting.

After a mental battle with LOST, and freeing Fallen/Cheska, Jeff began working toward cataloging all the blogs, aiding other runners and bringing them all to the same side.


 * Battle Couple: Most recently, Jeff and Cheska.
 * Boobs of Steel: Cheska can kick your ass.
 * Dating Catwoman: Jeff's initial relationship with Fallen.
 * Deal with the Devil: Once more, to be with Nessa.
 * Demonic Possession: LOST could be seen as this.
 * Enemy Within: LOST is definitely this, leading to Fighting From the Inside.
 * Dogged Nice Guy
 * Face Heel Turn
 * Fighting From the Inside: Against LOST
 * Heel Face Turn
