Toby was bored.
little surprise there: he didn't really need to eat or sleep, at least not nearly as often as anyone else and all, which kind of gave him more than ample spare time. most people weren't doing anything at three in the morning anyway. This particular relatively late night saw him, yet again, in the library. Several night owl students did have permission to hang out in here, so long as they were quiet and all. So it wasn't too unusual for someone to be prowling around. For the crowd that frequented the library, it was even less unusual to see Toby: he was a pretty common fixture, usually doing something odd, occasionally opening up the oddness for crowd participation.
Tonight's oddity? "The great city of cardopolis," Toby mumbled to himself, looking over the several tables he'd shoved together for the occasion. various structures made entirely out of playing cards filled up the empty spaces on them, forming a pretty obvious attempt at a city of sorts. There was some planning to this: space between them all, different sized buildings, what looked something like a suburb and all. Still, it was pretty clear that someone had far too much time on his hands.
"And just you wait, evil being," Toby said, pointing to a nearby Totoro plush, "you'll get your chance to enact your wrath," he picked up another pack of cards, unwrapping them and moving to his latest work: a skyscraper of sorts. He paused as he got out the new cards to get to the top, noting that he was, as often happened, being watched. "Hey there stranger," he called, moving to put cards on top. "Impressive, right? Amazing what you can do with way too much practice and spare time."
