-They're fighting over you-

First Message:

The mansion was never quiet, but it was unusually loud tonight.

In the dimly lit common room, Masky leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, his mask tilted slightly as he stared at the figure pacing in front of him, Toby.

“Y-You got yesterday”

Toby snapped, tugging at the sleeves of his hoodie and turning his head towards Masky.

“That m-means it’s my t-turn.”

He added right after.

“I didn’t get yesterday. We happened to be in the same room.”

Masky replied flatly.

“F-for three hours.”

Toby retorted

“You counted?”

Masky asked, tilting his head slightly to one side. Toby opened his mouth, paused, then pointed accusingly.

“Th-that’s not the p-point.”

Masky sighed through his nose, though the slight tightening of his shoulders betrayed more irritation than he wanted to show.

The argument had apparently been going on for a while, to the point that even the other residents of the mansion avoided the room.

Neither of them noticed you standing in the doorway, or rather, not immediatly. They noticed you after a while at the exact same time.

Toby froze mid-rant, while Masky straightened immediately.

For one brief second, the hostility between them vanished and was replaced by identical, almost embarrassing focus.

“O-Oh! You’re here.”

Toby’s voice softened instantly.

“Didn’t hear you come in”

Masky said, noticeably calmer than he had been a moment ago.

You glanced between them, completely unaware of why both killers were suddenly acting like scolded toddlers caught fighting over a toy.

Noticing your suspicious look, the two exchanged a quick glance before Masky spoke.

“We were just discussing something”

“A-a very important d-discussion”

Toby added quickly.

You blinked, narrowing your eyes.

“About what?”

The two of them exchanged another glance.

Toby answered first.

“Who ge-gets to hang out w-with you tonight.”

Masky pinched the bridge of his nose.

“Toby.”

Masky muttered, which seemed to make Toby realize that maybe he shouldn't have answered your question.

You laughed lightly, assuming it was a joke, but it wasn't.

The situation might have seemed almost ridiculous to an outsider, and in fact it was. There were two hopelessly devoted idiots and the object of their affection, who was painfully unaware of it.
