"They were supposed to be here... You don't think they skipped town on us, do you?" Marcus said, his sneakers crunching on the broken glass littering the floor as he eyed the empty room. A half-open door creaked against the bracing draft from across the room. Matt snapped to attention at the sound, and wide toothy grin spread across his face. "Nahhh. I think we got 'em right where we want 'em."

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME work of my boys on the hunt by the incredible @expiredfrij0les. GO SUPPORT 'IM HERE!!

✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: Happy Birthday Matt! :･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ✧

Part two of Matt's birthday celebration is finally here! This one ran a bit later than I originally wanted (ofc I promise Before The Month Is Over and look what happened...) but, at least it's done! His birthday has already passed (11/2), but now I'm finally caught up on the birthday cards for my fellas! Be sure to keep an eye open for his birthday story later today!

Dreams of summer on a rural property, of record players, rain bouncing off puddles at night, of figures moving and shifting beyond in the shadows.

Who's the Best (and worst) Roommate?

1. Matt. Simply by virtue that he's... never around? He spends extremely long amounts of time away from his room (spending the nights with Marcus usually instead), which means when he was a 2nd year you'd get the whole room to yourself most days. The times he actually is in his home dorm he mostly keeps to himself and reads or listens to audio books. He does like to talk and make friendly conversation though, so if you initiate he'll perk right up from whatever he's doing to chat. The most bother you'll have from him is when him, Marcus, and Kaz get together for a group study session, but they're able to move if you need privacy.

2. Kaz. He's just a sweet boy! If a bit if a pushover sometimes. He likes to talk and get to know you better, but is understanding if you'd prefer to be alone. Any mess he makes he makes sure to keep to his side of the room, though he also gets antsy when the room is a mess he doesn't like to voice his concerns when it happens. If you're feeling under the weather he'll offer to get you something from Sam's to help you feel better. He spends a lot of time away from his room throughout the day and mostly just comes back to sleep late at night (though he tries to be quiet as possible when he comes back too late). Every week him, Marcus, and Matt will have group study sessions and alternate between each other hosting, but they can usually move to the lobby if you ask.

3. Stahli. Yet another sweet boy! He likes to talk about his day and your day, and might offer to make you some tea and a treat when he's making some for himself. Actually he might offer you food often, since he's always looking for a taste tester for his cooking experiments. He's a little bit of a neat freak though and might pester you to clean things up if you leave the room too unkempt for his taste. Also, he can't stand strong fragrances so he might complain if you want to burn a candle/incense with too strong a fragrance or if you use body spray/perfume.

4. Phobos. He's antisocial and doesn't like being bothered. Being his roommate is only nice if you don't want someone to talk to, cuz chances are he won't want to talk to you even if you try and initate conversation. It's possible to befriend him, but it will just take a bit of time. He stays up really late on his computer, so hopefully you can sleep through the clicking of his keyboard. He gets pissed off if you try to have company over, but can ignore them by playing on his computer with his headphones on.

5. Marcus. He keeps to himself for the most part, so you won't have to worry about him bothering you, however insomnia + night terrors will make sleeping in the same room as him a bit of a challenge. You might hear him wake up or make startled noises periodically through the night. Also his boyfriend Matt is usually hanging around the room with him and will often spend the night. Somehow he's even more nocturnal than Marcus is. Hopefully you'll get used to it. Other than that him, Matt, and Kaz will have group study sessions sometimes and he'll host it in his dorm room. He's understanding though if you want him to move somewhere else.

6. Nyx. Unfortunately staying with him would kind of suck unless you share a lot of characteristics with him. He spends a lot of time alone in his room when classes are out, so I hope you weren't hoping for privacy. Because of his low heat tolerance he requires special accommodations and keeps the room fairly cool, so hopefully you like cooler temperatures too. He often stays up late on his computer and does voice calls with his friends, and while he'll try and lower his voice he still isn't that good at monitoring his volume. There's also a slim chance of Spontaneous Eels knocking on your door at any given moment with no warning. No they won't go away either if you turn them away. He sleeps with a sound machine and a lava lamp cuz he can't stand the dark and quiet. Also he will absolutely get upset if you have too loud of company over, even if he doesn't say something. Hypocrite.

7. Vantablack. As if being around them for long periods of time wasn't unnerving or invasive enough, their side of the room is a godamn quarantine zone. They like to decorate their side of the room with bones and teeth strung up like string lights along their bed and there's a locked chest at the foot of their bed which you can only assume is full of human skulls. Weird sigils are painted on the walls around the window and by the doorway and they will NOT let you scrub them off, no matter how much they bother you. There's a weird smell of moss and lake water that permeates their side of the room at all times. You get the feeling they might have been rummaging through your things when you're not home but you have no proof. They're talkative and really want to get to know you better, but you get this weird feeling that they don't just want to get closer to you because they want to be friends...

Once ya learn 'n understand the rules, it becomes a lot easier to bend an’ break 'em. Ya get it?

Matt is a character I originally made as part of my creepypasta Dementophobia, but he’s one of my favorites so I wanted to bring us into TWST too just for fun! Matt is best friends with Marcus and Kaz, and the three of them have a history that they bring with them to Night Raven College.

I’m SO excited to finally have my hands on this! As part of my eventual (see also: accidental) goal to fill up every TWST Dorm with an OC/Sona, my favorite creepypasta boys Marcus and Matt have officially joined the cast!

Art Commissioned from @laizy-boy! (Posting with their permission) Consider giving their commissions some love when they become available!

Rank your OCs based on how good they are at lying.

Sounds fun! For simplicity's sake I'm going to limit the ranking to my currently active TWSTocs-

Who's the Best Liar?

7. Kazuo - This poor boy can't lie to save his life. He's an awful liar and hates to even try, and unfortunately it gets him in a hell of a lot of trouble with the wrong people all too often. He's gotten hurt from his inability to lie far too many times, and has learned instead to just keep his big mouth shut to try and avoid the hellfire.

6. Stahli - Brutally honest even when it hurts, and when he's not being brutally honest he's just honest in general. Lying isn't something that comes naturally to Stahli, he just doesn't think to do it most of the time. He says what's on his mind even when it hurts the person he's talking to. But he's not entirely heartless, and will stop and sweat momentarily to tell a lie if it makes someone feel just a little bit better.

5. Nyx - He's not the best, but he has his moments where he can squeak through a lie if it's small, fast, and innocuous enough. His physiological reaction sometimes is a tell to when he's trying to bluff his way out of a situation: the fur on the base of his tail stands on end, and his ears start to twitch just a bit more frequently than usual. Sometimes if it's quick he can get through a lie smoothly, but if you keep pushing him he'll just get more and more obvious.

4. Phobos - He just doesn't talk much to people in general, so it's not like he'd have many chances otherwise. But he does have his fair share of secrets to keep, and those are things he'll fight someone on to keep them secret. Gets angry the more your challenge his lies and arguments, which leads most to drop the subject because, really, who would get that upset if they weren't being honest?

3. Marcus - He isn't proud of his ability to weasel out of trouble by stretching the truth when needed, but it really has saved his hide more times than he'd like to admit. When you've lived a life like his you learn quickly that sometimes a white lie deals less harm than the truth ever could.

2. Matt - He tends to stray on the side of omitting information rather than outright lying, as tis in his nature as a deal-maker, but that doesn't mean he can't easily tell a lie in order to further his own goals. Twisting and bending information has been what's kept him alive for almost all of his life, though that doesn't mean he can't be brutally honest when he chooses to.

1. Vantablack - Lying comes second nature to them. Honestly, they even do it compulsively sometimes without even thinking. Their whole being, their everything, was built and matured on the back of pretending, acting out roles, putting on façades, and lying through their teeth until they get what they want. Which sometimes what they want could just be to fuck with somebody for shits and giggles or to gain information about something or someone they want to know more about, but sometimes their intentions are more than just a little darkly malicious.
