Jeff has the most friends out of the entire Dwellers cast. He's in a trio with BEN and Clockwork and another trio with EJ and Nina but overall, his best friend is BEN.
Jeff can be chill and even friends with just about anyone, if they stay on his good side but if there's somebody he doesn't get along with (COUGH COUGH TOBY COUGH COUGH), he'll fight that mf to no end.
Usually, because Jeff gets his rage out with murder, fights with him are almost always verbal plus he couldn't actually make Toby feel any pain so that's off the table. He does stand Toby slightly over cause Clocky in his friend group.

Clockwork is an incredibly frequent insomniac; because she was abused by literally every person in her family, she always had to keep her guard up and that included sleep.
She'd fall asleep in class the next day after pulling an all nighter but her bullies would throw things at her to wake her up. She had to find a very secretive spot during lunch and recesses to sleep which landed her in a bathroom stall by herself most times but of course, the bullies found her there too.
School wasn't safe, home wasn't safe. She had nowhere to go, she knew if she went home she'd be attacked one way or another. If it wasn't being hit in the face with a beer bottle by father, her brother would be breaking the lock she placed on her room that she always had to repair herself. She knew she had to go somewhere but where could she go?
"They'd be happier if I disappeared." She thought bitterly, 2 blocks down from her home. It took her a millisecond to take off running as far away as she could get from that place. She didn't have to get hit, she didn't have to get her cries ignored, her insides wouldn't hurt every morning, even if just for a moment, she could be safe and happy. She was going to take that chance.
Late at night, Natalie found at herself at a park with her drawing book and pens in her hands. The hood of the 11 year olds green jacket was up so nobody would notice her. Her pen scratched the paper as she disembodied limbs and organs spewing out of each hole. There was something freeing about it, taking that pain she'd been forced into and making something out of it.
Sure, the girls at school had found her drawing books once and pasted all the images around school, having written things on them such as "NATALIE'S A FREAK!" In large letters across her art but she paid no mind when she was here. Feeling at peace, at long last, she wanted to find a place to sleep but that dream was dashed when the police cars that'd been circling the area finally caught wind of her.
"There you are, Ms. Ouellette." An officer stated, Natalie hid her book in her bag and began to back up. "Now don't run but I'm afraid your time is up out here. I need to take you back to your parents." Natalie was defeated. She wanted to kick and scream but she knew if she evaded this any longer, the beating would only be worse so she stepped toward the man in the car and got led to the back seat.
Finally home, she stood in front of the door nervously and watched her father fuming from the window to the living room. Her eyebrows immediately furrowed in anger at the man as she pushed the door open, ready to get it over with and gone. "I'm back!" She yelled, her father's attention immediately turning to her. He yanked her by the arm and she prepared but when the first hit landed.
"Clockeye?" Clockwork turned on her side to look up at the face that held the familiar gash and she raised her hand to graze it. "You looked like you were having a nightmare so I woke you up." Toby smiled, placing his hand on her hair. "Oh, uh, yeah. Just some bad memories coming back up." She sits up, letting herself rest on his shoulder.
"You okay with telling me about it?"
"....Maybe not now."
"Alright."
Toby plants a small kiss to her temple and she smiles, resting more comfortably against him.
Clockwork's walls in the main cabin were absolutely filled with her drawings, floor to ceiling with these gorey and scary drawings. Once her and Toby moved out, she got to work on the entire cabin, he loved seeing her art and sometimes he'd help her out:
Ex; Super beautiful and creative drawing of a dead body with a little stickman beside it signed by Toby.
Aaron, despite not being raised by his blood parents, developed Clockwork's fascination with art but not gore, he usually draws insects
I mentioned a long time ago that Toby nearly gets killed by a Zalgoid minion and goes missing for a while but I never disclosed who that minion was but it was actually Scarecrow Girl, but wait there's more! Scarecrow's motives were different than Zalgos',his was to kill Slenderman's right hand man but Scarecrow, because of her past with love, was jealous of Clockwork and Toby's relationship and cruelly wanted to see it ruined for her own satisfaction.
Scarecrow is planned to be a very big antagonist in the TicciWork story within dwellers so I hope y'all are excited!
