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.

YAY new thread! Great start Nikki.

Mayberry

Thanks guys!! So glad we're on our third thread. If anyone can contribute to the first post, that would be great....banners, avis, songs. I think we can do a reminders list, too. Just want to pump up the first page.

froggiepopple

I can attempt to make a banner, if I can have some good Tobanny pics. However no promises if I don't think it looks decent enough I probably won't put here right away.
Here are some reminders:
1. lockers
2. hunters
3. hot tubs
4. kisses on the elbows
5. prom
Sorry that is all I can think of for now

froggiepopple

I made two banners. One for the members:

and one for the reasons:

Mayberry

froggiepopple

Here is a banner for the reminders;

Mayberry

Amanda, yeah, I'm pretty sure we're the most active UC.

Added your banner, Leigh. I really like the color of the reminders one.

froggiepopple

I made a Tobanny timeline. There isn't any episodes from season 3, because I don't remember there being much Tobanny interaction then. If anyone knows if there is please let me know and which episode. I will then fix the timeline.

Mayberry

Leigh, love it! Where'd you get the idea for the timelines?
