Hey everybody! Decorating lockers, or meeting at lockers, we love them. For four years, Toby Isaacs and Manny Santos have been great friends-- wise counselors, shoulders to lean on, understanding. Well, we believe it's time for something more and that these two ultimately deserve each other. Our Locker Buddies, whether friends or lovers, deserve a shot, even though it is a long shot. The cheerleader and the gamer geek defy social circles because they truly care for one another, and we hope romance is in store for them.

Because they give the best advice at Degrassi.
Because like J.T., Toby couldn't stop staring at Manny's thong.
Because it's a longshot, but we like longshots.
Because sometimes friends make the best lovers.
Because she comforted him after Rick's death.
Because Emma wanted Toby to like Manny instead of her.
Because Toby banged his elbow to get a kiss from her.
Because he would treat her right.
Because she went to Rick's funeral with him.
Because they've been friends since season one, it's time for more.
Because she needs a good guy.
Because Manny told Toby to stop acting weird.
Because she tried to warn him about Kendra's locker.
Because he got jealous when J.T. was measuring Manny.
Because they're both mature.
Because J.T. got a chance, why shouldn't Toby?
Because he'd appreciate her for more than what she looks like
Because it's unexpected
Because she thinks he's a sweet guy.
Because he wouldn't let her go.
Because he cheered when she won Prom Queen.
Because DTV likes Tobanny, too.
Because he likes her, even in that weird prom dress.
Because they both follow their heart.
Because she wouldn't have to chase after him.
Because she was on his list, but now she's on top.
Because Manny thinks he seems kinda cool.

Tobanny Quotes

Islands in the Stream
Toby bangs his arm on the locker*
Toby: Ahh oohh! Ow!
Manny: Toby what’s wrong?
Toby: I banged my arm! It hurts!
Manny: Aw poor baby! Is there anything that I can do to help?
*Manny kisses his elbow before walking away*

Careless Whisper
Manny: Someone’s in love
Toby: Yeah but I think she’s mad at me
Manny: And you’re doing this for her
*Toby nods*
Manny: Big mistake, trust me Toby it will make her feel smothered.
Toby: Smothered? No it will show her I care

Back in Black

*At Jimmy’s locker*

Manny: I didn’t know Jimmy had so many friends
Toby: Jodi Menkanico, Heather Sinclaire. A lot of these are from strangers.
Manny: Really
Toby: People who don’t even know Jimmy care about him. My own friends won’t talk to me.
*Manny puts her hand on Toby’s shoulder*
Toby: I have to go to Rick’s visitation tonight but, I can’t face his mom.
*Manny shakes her head*: What about JT?
Toby: What about him?

As you can see, our Locker Buddies spend a lot of time at the locker together. Foreshadowing? Because significant others often meet each other at their locker. Maybe one day, Toby and Manny will decorate each other's lockers.

froggiepopple · 05-23-2005, 09:29 AM

welcome Mar

Mariael311 · 05-23-2005, 09:37 AM

Thanks!

I just like to give people chances. I mean there are some couples that I just refuse to ship but I just can't be like how I am with my Roswell ships...where I am so devoted..it's freaky!

froggiepopple · 05-23-2005, 09:46 AM

I have never seen Roswell. This might sound like a stupid question but does it have anything to do with the Roswell that is famous for UFOs and such?

Kinda...they took the idea of a crashing tosay that 4 alien hybrids survived on this planet and fell in love. Tried to find their way on Earth and how to survive and not get caught by the feds! I loved that show! Still do..else I wouldn't be still in love with JAson Behr and spending my money to see him!

I loved BtVS and DC. They all came out about time. WHen I was in HS they were all the rage...

Mayberry · 05-23-2005, 10:05 AM

Welcome Mar!! Glad that you're open-minded about the LBs. Out of curiosity, are you a Max/Liz fan?

I watched Roswell until it went to another station. But I've been recently watching the older eps.

Adding!!

We're really doing well, LBs. Thanks for posting!

froggiepopple · 05-23-2005, 10:12 AM

I don't remember what BtVS stands for but I do know when I was in HS, DC was popular.

Mayberry · 05-23-2005, 10:14 AM

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I think.

Hell Yeah!! I'm a Dreamer at heart! I just loved them. I mean they had their flaws and right now I'm bitching about them at the Dreamer thread at the Roswell board but I still love them!

I'm obsessed. I think the majority of my avis and wps are all dreamer stuff!

Are you really? God..I'm obsessed..I have the dvd's and every ep on VHS tape!

Yup...BtVS mean Buffy..I was a huge fan of that show. I had loved the movie and the show rocked..well until Angel then I have a few choice fav eps!

But yeah..those were the days!

froggiepopple · 05-23-2005, 10:31 AM

Yeah that makes perfect sense. I don't really remember Buffy being too popular in my high school though.
