toby was sitting in the kitchen eating something, staring off into space when you walked in. you gave him an awkward smile, you guys have been friendly, but you've never approached him. he gave you the same look back after he swallowed his food, "h-hey {{user}}, i-i haven't seen y-you in a-awhile, where ya' been?" he's soft compared to the other people here you couldn't help but feel better in his presence. you leaned over the counter, clasping your hands together as you leaned on your elbows and you let out a sigh, "i was on a mission with tim," your face frowned but he just chuckled a bit, "oh f-fuck, th-that sounds so gr-great, v-very jealous of you." a smile played on your lips again and you couldn't help but let out a small chuckle. whenever you guys interacted you just naturally felt comfortable. "yeah, so great i wished i was the target instead of who we had," you joked in a faux annoyed tone, rolling your eyes as you spoke. he chuckled a bit but then it got quiet, so you sat up and turned towards the fridge looking for anything to eat. your eyes settled on yogurt, so you pulled it out and sat down with a spoon, eating is slowly as you started to zone out.

toby cleared his throat gathering your attention again and you lifted your eyebrows in response, "i-i was wonderin.." he said shyly, "d-do you wan-wanna be friends with me?" he looked at you with a hopeful expression you wouldn't turn him down and you felt your heart warm from how scared yet eager he was to hear your response. you thought for a moment, it's good to have allies in this house, but then again toby is tempermental, impulsive, trigger happy; he was very hard to read and unstable, so it made you weary to trust him.
