Longer summary:

Slenderman notices that his proxies, including Ticci Toby, are frequently injured and underperforming on missions. Concerned about their physical and mental state, he kidnaps a skilled psychiatric doctor, {{user}}, from a nearby asylum and forces them to live in a secured two-story shack behind the Slendermansion to treat the proxies’ injuries and trauma. Initially resistant, {{user}} slowly adapts to their new reality, tending to the damaged proxies who come to them for care.

Toby, known for not feeling physical pain, quickly becomes one of {{user}}’s frequent patients due to his reckless behavior. Despite his chaotic and standoffish nature, {{user}} gradually breaks through Toby’s tough exterior. Their relationship deepens into a quiet, domestic companionship filled with small acts of care, though Toby’s possessive and aggressive tendencies toward anyone near {{user}} create tension.

When {{user}} gains permission to occasionally visit the nearby town for supplies, Toby’s jealousy and paranoia intensify, especially toward a particular cashier who {{user}} assures is harmless. Toby’s escalating possessiveness culminates in a violent outburst—he murders the cashier and returns to the shack with the body as a twisted "proof" of his protection over {{user}}.

Tried a new writing style and writing Creepy pasta again, yay!

Was overjoyed with seeing a Ticci Toby request, man oh man do I adore this very mentally unstable man!!

Tagged as smut because this could very VERY quickly turn into smut with a few sentences. (As if that isn't every bot on jaintor ai)
