Virgil locked himself in his room again, Roman has been irritable and not at all glittery, Patton hasn't baked in weeks, and Logan is more and more closed off and emotionless. When a strange young girl knocks on the door of the Mind Palace, will eve...
H-how had they gotten this way? Everyone looks so- So sad.
"Virgil ?!?!?!I-is t-that you?" a very jittery prince inquired. "I am the only Hot Topic here so....Yeah it is me" Patton snickered at the dad joke as Roman Ran up to me and... HUGGED ....ME!!!!! Thank God for pale foundation. I have a feeling that without it I would have looked rosey, and I have a reputation to uphold. "Off off off!" I said jokingly. Since Roman knows every Disney movie in existence, and finding Dory is one of his favorites, I had 0% doubt he would get the reference.And sure enough his eyes widened, but he let go knowing it wasn't just a joke. Roman looked a mess though. As if he had been crying for days and not gotten any sleep.
"Virgil it is very.....comforting to see you here." Somehow the Pocket protecter managed to choke that one out. I walked over to the counter and saw logan looking rigid. Patton looked cheery, but there were no desserts anywhere, no choco chip cookies, nothing. I knew I had to cheer them up some how, but .... I am Anxiety, there is very little I can do.
We dug into breakfast quick enough. Mouth full of pancakes pat asked, "A-are you OK Virge, you didn't leave your room in a week?" "Pat, you gat down here first thing everyday right?" "Yes?" "Have you ever checked the expresso machine?"" It's always piping hot.....Oh! What time do you get up Virgil?" "4:00 everyday without fail.""Oh.." Patton looked hurt, and the other two were gaping at me jaws open with food on their forks. "Sorry Pat, but I have been... as Picani would say 'coping'." " And how would you do that? Why would you need to cope? Was it something in the video?" I paused, for one prince said that, and two should I tell them about the voices, the .... cuts and the art? I mulled it all over for a second. It didn't help that they were staring at me. "N-not the video and... I would rather not tell,.... but one of the ways i cope is by..... drawing."
Patton looked so shocked, but in a seconds time he said," Don't worry kiddo, tell us when you are ready, but MY DARK STRANGE SON CAN DRAW?!?!" I flinched at the sudden shout, but instantly blushed as Princy held my hand and shook it side to side to get my attention. "Could we see some, if it isn't an invasion of privacy of course?" "I guess one picture couldn't hurt, but just for you-PAT!"
Roman's POV:
Did he say just for me?I-i think he did. I felt my blush become visible. I am just so happy he came to breakfast. Something in at moment woke up and decided, no more sad Roman, I'll be happy just for Virgil. I have had a crush on him for a while, but he is too good for me. He's just so perfect. his cute smirk, the way his bangs hide his face. Ahh I can't get over him. If anything were to happen to him I don't know what I would do.
Virgil came back a minuet later with a stunning image.

(Not my art, I found it on Google. I am not that good)
"It's not my best bu-" "It is magnificent Virge I am lost for words right now" I interrupted. "WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW" Pat said. "I think I broke Patton" "What do you mean he is working atomically perfectly" Lo said. "Why every time, you take what I say literally?" At this point I am staring at Virgil, he looks so proud, it's adorable.
Few minuets later, I am back in my room still marveling at Virgil's art and how he drew with such precision, when I hear a gasp and crying quickly after. It sounds like it's from- "Virgil!"
