the todestrieb is not a attractive thing to me.. i just want to meet him and see what hes really like, and input the results in my spirit journal (if he doesn't abduct me or drive me crazy firsrt)
Mizu-Taki, your nonchalance at being abducted or driven crazy is what indicates you may not be fully aware of your own todestrieb. Curiosity is a wonderful thing, but it must be tempered with caution. Otherwise it's simply being reckless.
Look at it this way, maybe I tell you I want to learn more about Tigers. Then I say I have booked a trip to India and I want to travel alone deep into a nature reserve and commune with the Tigers. And then, if I get close enough I plan on riding on the back of the tiger like I'm riding a pony.
Surely you would say to me, "Bartlebee, that's a very bad plan! You should go with experienced guides, and avoid doing anything foolish, like trying to ride a wild animal. If you are lucky you won't see anything, but if you're unlikely you'll get to be a tiger's lunch."
Slenderman is the tiger.
