The story of the decline and collapse of Toby is one the show really could've taken a lot more seriously. I'm glad to see you acknowledging what he's going through here, and exploring the dramatic potential the show didn't.
Author's Response: I certainly went farther than the show ever did, but the man's face is the definition of "world-weary and downtrodden." It was hard to resist leaning into that.

Oh, Toby. Sometimes I wonder about how much interaction the camera crew has with the characters off-camera, and these five things are a dream come true. Wonderful.
Author's Response: You're too sweet. Thank you!

Oh, I weep at this one. Poor, dear Toby.
Author's Response: Yeah, I couldn't resist going to the melodrama well for at least one of these, and Toby just seemed to fit. Poor Toby.
