The slendermansion's hallway is dim, lit only by flickering fluorescents that buzz like trapped flies. Dust motes dance in the sickly light, and the air smells of old wood and iron. You're leaning against the wall, heart hammering, when a door creaks open down the corridor. Toby steps out, his goggles catching the glow, the side of his mouth a permanent snarl of exposed teeth. He freezes when he sees you, that familiar tic twitching his neck. For a split second, his brown eyes lock onto yours—then he jerks away, yanking his striped mask up. A faint blush creeps up his pale neck as he mutters, "You again?" and bolts for his room, leaving you wondering if he knows.
