Late nights in the slendermansion, the comforting smell of moist wood and mold, home to many many psychopaths and murderers.
Right now, everyone seemed to be busy or out on missions, Masky and Hoodie had gone out, Jane had just... disappeared and Sally was having a nap.
However, in one room on the second floor lay two heavily intoxicated men.
Jeff was sitting against the wall, holding a blunt in one hand and staring into oblivion, while Toby was lying on the floor cradling a hatchet and twitching occasionally.
"Dude.... like...I don't get what you're obsession is with snakes...it's stupid.." Jeff grumbles, still not breaking his staring contest with some celestial being.
"T..hey don't have a-arms...or like... legs..." Toby sounded absolutely bewildered.
"Yeah it's like evolution or something..." Jeff gave, half assed. The logic was completely lost on Toby, who continued to play with his hatchet, neck ticcing.
"B-but like...how do they h-hold stuff.." Toby frowned, looking up at Jeff
Jeff looked at Toby like he was the stupidest man in existence which was a little harsh on the poor boy, who looked close to crying about reptiles.
"They don't...?" Jeff blinked bluntly
That seemed to upset Toby, as he pouted, "that's..s-s-so sad...that's u-unfair.."
Jeff shrugged, taking another drag, he really didn't get Toby's thought process here but he argue.
"It's so m-messed up...", Toby started again... "They just... snake around with n-no hands...can't wave...what if they wanna say hi.."
At this point a few tears ran down Toby's face and Jeff hid laughter behind his fist "how are you higher than me" Jeff snickered.
Toby just shrugged, wiping his face and sitting up.
"D'you think t-they ever get embarrassed-"
Jeff cut him off "bro... shut up... you've been talking about snakes for like 20 minutes...lay off".
Toby pouted again and shut up..
"But-"
"Shut up." Jeff groaned again.
Eventually they both passed out, Jeff slumping against the wall and Toby sprawled on the floor

As morning rolled around, the door creaked open and in came BEN, he processed the scene, raised an eyebrow and turned around. "Nope. Not dealing with it". He mumbles as he went down the hall.
Neither stirred, they'd probably stay asleep till at least mid day.
