| “ | Your brother's a bit of a... weak-minded, drug-addict, emo kid, y'know? I, on the other hand, like to see myself a bit more as a leader. Y'know, I'm a go-getter. That sort of stuff... | „ |
| ~ Patrick to Shaun Andersen. |
| “ | Life boils down to choices, Shaun. You choose to wake up, go to work, go to school, whatever it is you do, for your own good, don't you? Everyone does that. That's what life's about, right? It's this path, or that path, ant you hope it turns out the way you want. I've made mine. And I know your not happy with it, but I can promise you this: It's for my own good. It's for Michael's own good. | „ |
| ~ Patrick |
| “ | You miss your friends, yeah? (Pause) I don't really need a response I guess. Rude. (Pause) I think we both know you'll see them soon, Vin. But that's why you're caught in this f***ing shitstorm. You and them. He likes you. Because you're different from the usual bodies. You're not like me. See, my whole f***in' thing is; I know they get stronger, the more that we spread the knowledge of their existence, it's- a f***ing virus loop, man, it feeds them. It's more toys in their f***in' toybox. Every soul you touch, every friend, family member, lover, and stranger that you interact with, willing or not, you roped them f***ing into this, they're all a part of this and they're all trying... God dammit, man. | „ |

Biography[]
Initially, Michael had began sleepwalking during the course of events, however, it eventually got to the point where he would carry a knife into Shaun's room as he was doing this. Eric and Shaun eventually decide to bring him back to the mental institution where Michael had stayed at originally.
Patrick makes his official appearance in the video Going Away Present, where he ties up Shaun in his basement. He takes pleasure in tormenting Shaun Andersen, and also requests to Shaun that he calls him Patrick. Eventually, Patrick leaves a knife next to Shaun and lets him free himself as Patrick disappears. Its later revealed that while Michael was institutionalized, he would attack other patients and call himself Patrick. This is revealed to Shaun by Stormy, a former patient at Michael's hospital. During his visit with Stormy, Patrick appears threatening the two with a knife, and tells them that Michael is trying to kill himself with pills. Patrick says that since the two share the same body, he can't allow that. He then leaves, taking Stormy's knife with him.
Its later revealed that Stormy was threatened by Patrick and went as far as attacking her by forcing her to hide Michael's flash drive from Shaun. This is revealed when Shaun visits Stormy a second time, only for the two to be attacked by the Slender Man. Patrick appears for a brief few seconds by teleporting into the elevator with Shaun. After a few months pass, Shaun and Stormy begin dating and living together, whereas Michael would return warning Shaun that Patrick showed Shaun and Stormy dying in multiple ways. Michael eventually returns to Shaun, saying that he is "all better now".
Michael begins living with Stormy and Shaun. All things are fine, until Stormy is later killed by the Slender Man. It is later implied by HABIT that Patrick did this.
Patrick made a short appearance in the Stan Frederick video called 13. Unsatisfied Customers when Stan called Michael on the phone and told him that he was going to move their appointment to a few months, he then told him that everything was going to be okay. Michael then turned into Patrick and started laughing, he told Stan how Michael's brother was cut into pieces by HABIT with a chainsaw and that Stan has no idea what he was wading into. He then hung up on Stan.
Patrick later made a voice appearance in EverymanHYBRID during Tape 3 of the Princeton Tapes where he calls Vinny in order tell him about the Iteration cycle. He reveals that he is stuck in the iteration cycle alongside Vinny and his friends but unlike them, can still remember everything and also reveals that Slenderman, The Rake, and HABIT become more stronger the more their existence is spread. However, he does imply that Vinny (or, more likely, Dr. James Corenthal) might be able to break the cycle eventually.

Trivia[]
- According to HABIT, Patrick has existed for longer than either Shaun or Michael has. He also says that Patrick gives himself all sorts of families and friends throughout the years to surround himself with food for the Slender Man. He also says the reason he scared Eric away was because he was catching on to Patrick's sociopathic lifestyle. HABIT mentions that Patrick would be considered a sociopath, if he were human.
- In an interview with a fan, Dylan Sindelar (the co-creator of MLAndersen0 and actor for Michael Andersen/Patrick) stated that Patrick is the aspect of Michael that retains all of the memories and knowledge of their previous iterations, similar to a computer hard drive, while Michael is born anew each time, knowing nothing. He also said that Patrick is able to see the Slender Man for what he really is: a massive Eldritch being.
