I missed you

Read me! : in this I'm calling Deceit, Damien a little background Damien and Virgil use to date now after 4 years apart Damien still has feelings for Virgil and Virgil does to but doesn't want to tell

One time thing

The words left Damien's mouth before he could stop himself to Virgil's suprise, Damien looks terrible he's way to skinny and it looks like he hasn't slept in days. Virgil takes another step towards Demian sadly but he keeps his guard up "you missed me, really?" Virgil snarls sarcastically but inside he just wants to hug him, Damien feels tears streaming down his cheeks Virgil sighs and old habits kick in. Virgil hushs Damien's sobs just as he use to, with kind words and soft hands running through his hair, "I missed you two...." Virgil admitted "Y-You did?" Damien mutters surprisely as tears continue to fall "Mhm, I hate to say it but I did" Virgil says as Damien sobs come to an end, Damien sniffs and says "D-do you really mean it?" Damien curls his arms op against Virgil chest, "of course I do" Damien couldn't help but burst into tears again "I'm here, It's okay~" Virgil takes Damien's hand

"Hey, let's just sit down and talk alright" Damien nods tears still rolling "Mhm sounds good?" Virgil asks with a gentle smile, Virgil leads Damien to his room and closes the door behind them. Virgil still holding Damien hand sat down, he let Damien's hand go but he didn't want to, Virgil was still surprised at how vulnerable Damien was being. It wasn't usually like this normally Damien would comfort him not the other way around, but that didn't matter now. Because Damien had gotten up and was about leave "I know you don't *sniff* want me here *sniff* so I'll leave*sniff*" Damien's voice shook as he spoke

Virgil recognizes that sniff, Damien was going to leave and be in a bad place for a while. Virgil got up and hugs Damien's from behind, "Virgil *sniff* let me g-go" Damien mutters, "No don't leave, Not yet." Virgil swallows his pride "I-i need you here, so please don't leave"

"Okay I'll stay"

Inktober Day 9

Prompt: Ship

Inktober Masterpost: https://alwaysdamfangirling.tumblr.com/post/188070519351/inktober-masterpost

Guess who thinks Roceit is underrated? Me.

So this is my first real attempt at drawing a kiss and, I think I’m kinda happy with out? It turned out better than I expected, since they always seemed so hard to draw.

And I’ve finally caught up with Inktober! As you might have noticed on the quality of my inktober sketches, I did 90% of them on the same day... I’ve been so busy with school lately and the grades I get this year means a lot to my future, so I really need to focus on my studies

I’m here to assist with your need

@darknightvirgil

Here is a list of random headcanons I have involving the sides.

(All of them involve Virgil specifically because he’s the softest bean and I will admit that I kind of love him the most.)

Whenever Thomas has a nightmare, Virgil sneaks into his room to comfort him. Virgil tried to keep that a secret from Thomas but Thomas figured it out as soon as he properly met him and when he finally told Virgil that he’d known, Virgil actually shoved him(gently and in the direction of the couch) and screamed “YOU SAW NOTHING!” before sinking away and refusing to meet Thomas face to face for a week out of embarrassment. 

Sometimes a spider will appear in the house and Thomas(and sometimes Patton) will SCREAM and start shouting for Virgil who will instantly appear and sometimes straight up murder the spider(seriously messing up whatever was around it in the process) or take a moment to toss the spider outside of the house before taking whoever screamed away from where the spider had been and cuddling with them until they feel better.

Deceit likes to cuddle. He’s always cold so he tries to cuddle with one of the others whenever he can to keep himself warm. His favorite person to cuddle with is Virgil because the anxious side is always willing to cuddle and carry him, regardless of what he’s doing at the time, and doesn’t mind when Deceit’s cuddles include flopping on top of him, wrapping around his throat in his snake form, actually crawling into his clothes in both forms, and spontaneously jumping on him while he’s walking around.

Patton trips on air sometimes and almost everyone knows that he does it completely on purpose. The only one who doesn’t know is Virgil, which is good since Patton only trips so that Virgil can catch him.

Everyone likes being carried by Virgil and Virgil is confused by the sentiment but doesn’t really have a problem with it. It all started with Patton who found out he enjoyed being carried by the stronger side early on in their friendship when Virgil had caught him the first few times he’d tripped near him. Deceit found out next when he was feeling particularly cuddly one day and pounced on Virgil for the first time. He’d been both surprised and pleased when Virgil had simply adjusted to carry him while he continued on with his day, not even bothering to question the reptilian side clinging to him. Thomas found out when he’d been particularly sleepy one day while returning home and had almost fallen flat on his face upon entering his front door. Virgil had swiftly caught him before he could and had easily carried him upstairs while quietly grumbling complaints about his lack of sleep, Thomas finding himself to be ridiculously comfortable in the arms of his Anxious protector to the point of falling asleep on the way up the stairs. Logan found out when he’d been overworking himself at his desk and Virgil had popped in, seen how tired and stressed he was, and had scooped him up without hesitation. Logan had complained at first but Virgil had given far too many solid arguments as he carried him to his bed and Logan was far too comfortable by the time they reached it to complain further. Roman found out when he’d dragged the others into a ‘Family Adventure’ and had ended up being flung into the air, only for Virgil to catch him on the way down. It had been quite a surprise but Roman had felt a little like a princess in the arms of a valiant knight and had discovered that he rather enjoyed playing that role when the knight was a slightly embarrassed and concerned Anxiety.

Virgil hangs out on the fridge sometimes and, surprisingly, Patton hates it. He doesn’t mind Virgil being up there in general but the same thing always happens whenever he walks by. Nobody ever really notices that Virgil is up there unless they actively look for him or he makes sure they notice him so whenever Patton goes into the kitchen without noticing him there Virgil just quickly grabs him by the shoulders and pulls him up with him. It always makes Patton scream and Virgil always ends up cackling and saying something ridiculous like “I have obtained my hostage!” or “The fridge goblin strikes again!” and yeah it’s funny but also terrifying and Patton was doing something when Virgil had picked him up and he wasn’t able to do that thing anymore because Virgil only ended up on the fridge when he was feeling particularly sleep deprived and loopy and that meant that the anxious side would not only drag him onto the fridge but would also usually end up sinking them away to a random location to cuddle and nap or to play some kind of slightly deranged game of tag or hide and seek that Patton couldn’t get out of without help from one of the others.

Sometimes, when Patton is in a particularly weird mood, he’ll climb onto the fridge and wait for Virgil to come by. Virgil always notices him as soon as he enters the room but doesn’t bother reacting until Patton pounces on him. Patton always says it’s revenge for all the times Virgil does something similar but the others aren’t entirely sure if he really means it or not because Virgil always seems pretty content with just catching Patton and carrying him around for the rest of the day afterwards.

Deceit will occasionally disappear and nobody but Virgil knows where he goes. Eventually tho, they all find out when they find him in the same place over and over again. It turns out that Deceit likes to take naps in Virgil’s hoodie pockets. Virgil doesn’t mind and Deceit finds it to be one of the most comfortable places for him to take naps.

Patton and Virgil started a boop war a year into their friendship and it’s been going strong ever since. Occasionally, it’ll get pretty intense and the two will end up booping each other repeatedly just rolling around while trying to boop the other until they both finally just collapse from exhaustion.

Out of curiosity, Logan once had Roman scream for Virgil while they were on a mini-adventure and the anxious side had popped in immediately and instantly went after the enemies nearby. When he’d finished he’d turned to the others and had frantically started patting them both down to make sure that they were alright and the other two had been unable to say anything while he did because they had just watched him gruesomely tear apart all of the enemies with his bare hands and it had been absolutely terrifying and also incredibly cool all at the same time.

It turns out that Virgil is weirdly good at cooking. This confuses everyone until he admits that he learned so that he could make sure there was someone around to feed them all if something happened to Patton or Thomas and they were unable to cook for a time. Logan and Roman both defended that they could also cook but were swiftly reminded that they usually messed up when they did it together and would almost always set something on fire when left to do so alone. And Deceit just admitted that he was really bad at it and agreed that Virgil’s back up plan was probably for the best.

If you start certain songs, Virgil is obligated to finish them. The best example is Welcome to the Black Parade but it is not the only one he does this with. Sometimes, Roman will mess with him by playing just the G-note and Virgil will SCREAM from wherever he is and stop whatever he is doing to run over and either make Roman finish playing the intro or will finish it himself before belting out the rest of the song. Once, he was having a perfectly normal conversation with Patton and Logan when Patton said “When I was a young boy” completely without meaning to start anything and Virgil just started screaming out the rest of lyrics seemingly without even meaning to either. Every once in a while, Deceit will just shout in the middle of the living room “TO CARRY ON” and Virgil will respond from wherever he is by continuing the song from there while making his way over to him. There are certain songs that Virgil hates but will still continue to sing without even meaning to. Once, and this is something that Roman will never let him live down, everyone was preparing to watch a movie after a particularly long day and Logan said “But first” and Virgil instantly replied by saying “Let me take a selfie” in a terrifically terrible valley girl voice without even seeming to realize what he’d done until it was too late.

Patton knows how to play the kazoo shockingly well and sometimes he’ll try to sneak up on Virgil only to start playing random songs and memes. Once he started playing the John Cena theme and Roman appeared out of nowhere and tackled Virgil onto the couch. 

Patton quotes memes a lot and Virgil loves it. 

Sometimes, Logan quotes memes and Virgil and Patton both love it.

Logan and Virgil have a game similar to Virgil and Patton’s Boop War where the two will just dab when no one else is looking while making sure the other sees. They take turns to see who can get away with the most dabs at a time before someone else notices. One day, Roman found out what they were doing but when Logan and Virgil talked about it with him they said that it didn’t matter if he told the others about it and when he asked why they both looked him straight in the eye and said, terrifyingly in sync, “Because no one will ever believe you” and left. Roman was both terrified and impressed by how well they’d pulled off the reference.

Suggested alternate ending: Patton decides to join in by throwing knives.

Logan opens his door to see what all the commotion is about and just sees Virgil sprinting down the hall past him with deceit in his arms, both of them screaming. Then Patton also sprints past, still throwing knives, cackling like a madman. Logan blinks and then just shuts his door and decides he needs to take a break or something from literally everything.

Roman eventually comes out to see what’s up and ends up having to join Virgil and deceit in sprinting away from Patton who remains delighted as he chases everyone around the house.

Then Virgil gets cornered, after valiantly saving the other two from the same fate by shoving them into a closet moments beforehand, and Patton just launches several knives at him at once and Virgil is pretty sure that Patton won’t kill him and that he can’t actually die from a physical injury but he’s also pretty sure that this is the moment when he dies and then he kind of just sits there for a moment in confusion when nothing actually happens to him. And then Patton is laughing even more than before and Virgil is confused for a second until he picks up one of the knives and realizes that they were actually just dull plastic knives that looked like real ones and Patton is just dying of laughter because Virgil just looks so incredibly confused and the others had been running so frantically for so long and this was a risky prank that totally paid off because Virgil hadn’t had a panic attack, nobody had gotten hurt, and this had been so much fun. And then Virgil starts laughing too and they’re both dying on the floor, leaning against each other and shaking from the force of their guffaws.

Then Roman and deceit come out of the closet(lol, *coughs* sorry. It’s a reflex.) to figure out why the two had been laughing so much for so long and Patton just looks at Virgil and Virgil instantly knows what he has to do.

So he stands up wielding a handful of knives and grins in the craziest way he can, which is absolutely terrifying because he’s anxiety and he knows how to look scary better than anyone else, and just says one thing in the scariest and most warped version of his voice possible.

“Run”

And they instantly scramble to escape as Patton starts cackling again and yelling for them to come back so they can play together and that was already scary before but now Virgil is also sprinting alongside him and booming with his own terrifying evil laughter and Logan is in the kitchen now as everyone just continues to run around the house frantically.

He ignores the screams of Roman and deceit as he makes some tea for himself and doesn’t even blink when all four of them scramble into the commons for a moment. He does, however, pull out his own little stash of plastic knives that he had simply picked up from where they were lying after Patton threw them earlier and wields them at the the two “victims” when they try to hide behind him.

The game lasts for a while after that until eventually deceit just gives up and throws himself at Virgil, who almost pokes him in the gut with some of the knives he’s holding as he catches him, and declares that he now owes him some cake and cuddles for being so terrifying the entire time(I headcanon that deceit is cold, like, all the time so he always wants cuddles and Virgil is both always warm from wearing a hoodie all the time, a very good cuddler that makes the others feel safe, and always down to cuddle so long as he’s not the one who has to initiate it. So deceit tends to just go and flop on him whenever he pleases and Virgil is totally ok with that cus deceit always knows when he is and isn’t ok with physical contact or anything beforehand so he only does it when Virgil is gonna be cool with it.) and Virgil just laughs and leaves Patton and Roman to finish the game themselves while he carries the danger noodle back to the common area to relax on the couch with Logan and watch some history channel shows.

Eventually, Roman decides to end the game by dramatically dying in the common area while Patton tosses knives at him, giggling the entire time.(Roman and deceit had realized pretty quickly after Virgil also started throwing knives that they were fake because they knew that the anxious side would never do somethjng that could actually cause them harm and he had better aim than Patton so it was pretty easy to figure it out when the knives were just harmlessly pinging off of them)

And then everyone kind of just collapses into a pile on the couch and switches to watching lilo and stitch and Patton eventually makes a chocolate cake later that day for deceit and makes Romans favorite food for dinner while Virgil makes sure to visit Roman the next day to have a fun Disney marathon with just the two of them and gives deceit some extra affectionate cuddles for the rest of the day.

And when Thomas eventually finds out about the incident he asks why nobody tried to stop Patton when he suddenly started throwing knives at everyone and Roman, deceit, and Logan say that they just assumed Virgil would do somethjng if he thought it was actually too dangerous and Virgil just says that he assumed Patton wouldn’t actually kill them even if they were real knives. Patton finds this a sweet thing to say and gives his dark strange son a hug while Thomas wonders how he’s still alive if the embodiment of his survival instinct just assumes that he will be fine if someone aggressively throws knives at him, so long as they don’t mean to murder him directly.

———————————

And that’s my alternate ending to this spectacular tale of Virgil and deceit’s utensil war.

I ended up making this a bit longer than I’d intended but, whatever.

This was fun to think up and at least partially satisfied my need to have some fluffy sympathetic deceit stuff so I am content with that.

2 Virgil to Deceit

2: “Are you seriously throwing forks at me?”

Virgil jumped from his spot on the couch as something hard hit him in the side. He looked at the something. It was a fork.

He looked around the room before his eyes landed on a certain snake ducking behind the kitchen counter.

“Are you seriously throwing forks at me?”

Deceit chuckled. “No.” He said, throwing another fork at Virgil.

“Yes you are.”

“I most certainly am not.” Another fork.

“Can you stop?”

“Yes.” Another damn fork.

Virgil growled, storming towards the kitchen. “That’s it, loser. You’re on.”

It was at this point that Patton heard shouting coming from the kitchen.

“Guys, are you oh… kay…”He fought to keep himself from laughing at the scene he walked in on. This scene being Deceit holding a fistful of forks in one hand, the other holding a fork and reeled back, ready to throw, and Virgil on the other side of the room, standing on a chair, with a handful of spoons in his hand, more sticking out of his pockets, and also ready to throw. There were forks and spoons all over the floor.

They caught sight of Patton at the same time and dropped their ammunition, both pointing at the other with a shout of, “He started it!”

Patton had an amused smile on his face. “I’m sure one of you did.” He let the smile drop, serious Dad Face in its place, “Now clean this up, kiddos.”

oh look more dlamp

Whoops.

Summary: thomas is having a break day, much to logans despair, means he just sits around and eats chips and watches funny videos, which means its the sides day too.

warnings: stupid roman, sympathetic deceit, fluff

platonic or romantic dlamp

------------------------------------------

Last time Roman had an idea to do on chill day, he broke a few lights. He summoned a bouncy-house in the mind palace, Which when he jumped on it, broke the chandelier in the living room. They took turns having ideas, today was Patton's. Everyone loved when Patton chose. The day consisted of warm cookies, cuddles, and disney movies in the evening. Fluffy pancakes in the morning with berries and a glass of milk, Orange juice for Roman, he's lactose intolerant.

And by dinner time they might aswell be at a 5-star resturant, Patton literally cooks gourmet, it leaves Logan speachless, and that's why its gourmet.

He also makes dessert occasionally. Hot cocoa with fluffy marshmallows, a slice of cake or cookies, and a candy of choice. Logan tends to skip the candy. He cant focus when he eats it. Everybody wonders how Dee stays skinny, he technically always has alot of dessert. He usually gets so much sour candy that his mouth starts to bleed.

It concerns Patton greatly most times. But today, the sides were sitting on the couch as Patton made breakfast. Dee was stretched out on the couch, in a snake onsie, laying across Roman, Logan And Virgil's laps.

Hes basically a 6''2 walking pet snake. He'll hiss at you if you man handle him too much, depends on his mood though. Some days you could literally lift him up and spin him around and other days its safer to not touch him or he might bite you. One day the sides caught him with half a dead mouse in his mouth. Ew. He has a large standup lamp in the corner of the room. He acctually needs a heat lamp.

As for the other three, Roman is wearing a disney onsie. Virgil is wearing a nightmare before christmas hoodie with shorts, and Logan is wearing his unicorn neck tie mix.

As Patton called out that breakfast was ready, the living room went from serenity to chaos is a span of 00.2 seconds. Playfully shove fighting their way to the kitchen, which Dee made it into first (he hissed at everyone til they moved). Virgil was always last cause he didnt feel like being in the Chaos. Roman made it second, Logan was third.

Dee technically threw himself into his seat. Roman right behind. Logan casually sitting down, and Virgil tiredly walking over and plopping down.

"You kiddos got in here fast!" Patton cheerfully responded, setting their plates down in front of them.

They nodded, Well Patton giggled at his silly boys. Dee ended up hissing at Roman for trying to get the maple syrup first, causing Roman to back the heck up. Dee is very possesive of his food, Its a snake instinct. He literally just put some maple syrup on his pancakes then he was completely chill with you taking the syrup. Dee is mainly adorable, but he is a fiesty boi. They quickly ate, And Roman wanted disney movies, specifically the lion king. both lion kings. All the hecking lion kings.

Also Dee will only watch the lion king or the nightmare before christmas. He's stubborn. Virgil was wiping crumbs off his legs, Roman was ignoring the syrup all over his mouth, and Logan was fixing his tie and getting crumbs off it.

Roman ended up crying again at the lion king, he does it everytime. Which earned him Dad cuddles. Dee was curled up in a ball On Logan AND Virgil. He's 6''2 he a big boi even curled up. Hissing happily as Logan played with his hair. Virgil literally just pets him. Patton brought out hot cocoa and they were right on it. Dee kept hissing at his to cool it down, Virgil has no soul according to himself so he attempted to chug it but burnt his tongue. Logan blew on it like a normal person. And Roman chugged it, ignored it and became a ball of energy.

Then he broke another chandelier.

Morning.

my first attempt to get over writers block, not a request.

Platonic dlamp

Summary: Deceit wakes up from a nightmare at 6 in the morning and accidently wakes up all the sides well trying to make cocoa.

its been so long the last sander sides fanfic i wrote was on wattpad

[Warning: angst, Sympathetic deceit]

He couldnt remember much, but he woke up panicked. The sky had only just started lightening. clutching his chest with his hand, he got up. His breath was quick, he had gotten up quickly, nearly springing out of bed, which caused him to get dizzy. Clutching onto his desk, he managed to get to the door. he glanced over at his clock as he noticed it was six in the morning,

Hissing under his breath, he walked out. None of the other sides were up right now, so he should be fine.

He was in a black shirt with some black sweatpants with high lighter yellow snakes on them, aswell as his shirt having a highlighter yellow snake on the back and front, it wouldnt be too hard to notice him going down the stairs if you walked out at that very moment. He stumbled down the stairs, his vision still attempting to focus.

He tripped a bit which caused a small thump, he froze in his tracks, hoping he didnt wake any of the sides, Patton was an light sleeper, very quick to wake up. but he didnt, to deceits relief.

He could hear the crickets from outsides as he got down to the living room. The mind palace just looked exactly like thomas's house until you saw all the multiple rooms on the second floor. Still shooken up from the nightmare, he shakily made his way to the kitchen. Finding his way to the fridge in the dark.

He opened it and nearly blinded himself. Bright light leaking from the lightbulb at the top to fill the fridge.

After he got over the fridge light in his eyes, which might aswell been a flashbang at this time of morning for him, whos been wandering in the dark for like, the past 20 minutes. he scanned the fridge, getting milk out, he noticed red leaking from the side of one of the shelves, the ketchup had got a hole and leaked, Probaly from patton dropping it yesterday night at dinnner. Getting ketchup all over his hands. and suddenly, the nightmare came back to him.

Blood, suddenly clung to his hands. It dripped from a cut on the side of his face. Laughing, he could hear laughing, it was dark. But he seemed to light up the dark landscape. he couldnt speak, or move. they just kept laughing at him.

He jolted back, slightly gasping. Fighting the urge to let tears run down his face and cry in the kitchen, but it had an extremley bad echo. god knows patton will wake with a start. he didnt wanna wake them up at this time, thatd be a crime. he'd had reoccuring dreams like this ever since he left the 'dark sides' it was a burden, some type of cruel punishment for leaving. being in a place he shouldnt be.

He pushed it off, shaking. Going to go get the instant hot cocoa mix from the top of the microwave. It was in a small box they used for popcorn too. he usually hummed to calm himself down but it would echo.Setting the hot chocolate mix down by the milk, he went to go get a cup from the cabinet.

One fell out when he opened the cabinet. Landing on the edge of the count then rolling off, Shattering.

The sound echoed throughout the mind palace. and no later then a minute did he hear patton rushing down the stairs to see what was wrong. he looked concerned, his hoodie to his cat onsie had fell off his head well he was sprinting down the stairs. deceit felt bad, he didnt want to wake anyone up, and patton of all of them.

"Shucks kiddo what happened?" His voice had a panicked tone too it.

Deceit just couldnt bring himself to own up to his purpose in this exact moment.

"i dropped it, i didnt wanna wake you up!-"

"oh Dee you look like youve been crying! what happened?" if anything was a concerned father, this was it.

And suddenly the whole world crashed around him. He collasped into patton, hugging him tightly. Crying, sobbing nearly. The warmth of Patton's embrace was comforting too him, almost like he was sitting near a cozy fireplace. He cried until he generally was choking and coughing on his own tears. Patton giving him a pat on the back.

All the crying awoke Logan first, then roman, then virgil. All coming down the stairs to see Deceit crying into pattons shoulder.

Quickly rushing over to provide more cuddles. he was technically engulfed into warmth as he got alot of cuddles from alot of concerned boyo. Patton invited them to sit on the couch and watch the lion king until Dee calmed down. Which everyone agreed to, and also a very suddenly excited roman. So they all sat down on the couch and Cuddled around Dee. Who patton was proud was in his snake pajamas he bought him for christmas.

They continued to cuddle and such till the movie was over, but by the time the movie was over, they were all asleep.

there will be no abusive deceit in this house.

and to the tags you can see more of me ranting, thank you for coming to my tour.

Warning: Cursing, Angst, Crying, Hearts Broken, Leaving people behind, Remus and Deceit are in this story! But they aren't the bad guys!

The other sides can't stop crying. They were all broken.

Virgil left. Their Virgil. His Virgil.

The emo left. Their emo left. His emo left.

Anxiety is gone. But how? When? Where? Why?

--

11 a.m.

Patton was still waiting. Logan insisted they eat early. Patton was confused, Virgil wasn't usually this late. Is he okay? What did Patton do? Did another fight happen? What happened? Did something go wrong? Did Patton do anything? Did Pa-

Patton was cut short with a hand rubbing his back. He couldn't tell who was in front of him, the tears in his eyes made it blurry. He could hear well though. "--tton. Tap once if you could hear me." The voice said, taking hold of Patton's hand.

Patton tapped and felt the hand. "Logan." He thought to himself as he felt the bracelet he gave him. "Okay. I need you to breathe Patton. In for 4, hold for 8, out for 7." Patton was having a hard time breathing but Logan tapping the beat on his hand helped.

Patton could breathe and see properly now. "Wh-what happened?" Patton asked, wiping away the tears. "You started hyperventilating. That's not usually normal with you." Logan remarked, giving Patton a few tissues.

Patton nodded and started fidgeting with his sweater. Roman came down and sensed the tension between the two. Roman nodded at Logan and sat at far end of the table. "Sooo, no Virgil yet?" Roman asked, tilting his head.

Patton sniffled and nodded. Logan sighed and put an arm around Patton and squeezed him a bit. "Everything will be okay. And Roman? Will it be okay if you check on Virgil? He is usually not this late." Logan said.

Roman nodded and made his way up to Virgil's room. He knocked the black door that was decorated with purple that said "Virge" in his handwriting. "Weird." Roman told himself. He knocked twice now.

Thrice.

Four times.

5 times.

He grew impatient and jiggled the door knob. He was threw the door open and was met with nothing but a dark room. He opened the lights and scanned the room. "Virgil?" He called out. Roman groaned and called out again. "Virge? this isn't funny. Patton isn't gonna be happy."

He stepped inside and checked his room for Virgil. Nothing seemed out of place. His guitar case was in it's usual spot. He checked Virgil's private rest room. No foggy mirror. The bed was messy. It was usually made.

"Virge? ....Virgil?" Roman called out, before checking the drawers. He found 3 envelopes(ah shit here we go-), one in dark blue with Logan's name, one in pastel blue with Patton's and one in res, with Roman's name. Roman's eyes widened. "Shit shit shit shit Virgil no please don't do this to us." Roman said, running out.

"Logan! Patton! Shit Virgil don't do this to us." Roman shouted, going down two steps at a time. "Did something wrong happen?" Patton asked. Roman panted and nodded as he gave out the letters.

"I don't understand, why did he write us letters? Is he showing us his love? Was he in the room?" Logan asked, inspecting the envelope. "Okay specs so he's not showing us his love and no, he was not in his room." Roman said, panting.

"Then..what's wrong?" Patton asked, concern in his voice. Roman raked a hand through his hair and began telling them.

--

"Hey, Roman? What's the best way to tell someone you're leaving them?" Virgil asked, breaking the silence. They were stargazing in their imagination. Roman faced Virgil and raised an eyebrow.

"You planning to leave us Emo Knightmare?" Roman asked, concerned. "Oh! No no no! I just had the question because uh, I'm wondering, is there any way we can tell someone that we're leaving without hurting them?" Virgil clarified, smiling awkwardly.

Roman nodded and looked back at the stars. "Well, you will hurt them really. It's hard to focus because you know you're going to hurt them. But, if I were to do if, which I won't, I would write a letter really. I don't want them to chase after me and all that." Roman said. Virgil nodded and faced back at stars.

"Hey Ro?"

"Yeah Virge?"

"Thanks for being a really nice friend, I'm sorry for calling you nicknames and all that." Virgil said, facing Roman.

Virgil chuckled and smiled softly. "Same goes to you V. Past is past, we're friends now." Roman said. Smiling.

But

He still never gets hurt.

He's broken and Virgil doesn't knows.

--

Patton felt tears going down his cheeks. Logan was shocked. Roman is...broken, really frustrated.

"No no no no no Virgil. No. No!" Patton said, letting his head down and letting his tears roll down his face. "..Roman? Did you know?" Logan asked, hugging Patton tighter. "No, I didn't I- I didn't mean- I just- I never wanted to give him id-ideas, Logan, P-patton, I'm so- I'm so sorry." Roman stuttered, panicking more and more.

Patton looked back up and opened his arms and let Roman fall into his touch. "I'm really- really so-sorry I- I'm very sorry, please fo-forgive me guys!" Roman said, starting to panic. "Ro, breathe, 4, 8, 7, continue that." Logan said, grabbing Roman's hand and tapping the beat on his hand.

Roman's breathing slowed down but he was still panicking. "I-i think we should read these. Privately, but f-first, we should, see if he's with the others." Patton suggested, rubbing Roman's back. Roman nodded and Logan gave a thumbs up.

"You two should rest, I'll go ask. For now, stay safe." Logan assured, closing his eyes and sinking out. He opened up his eyes as he heard a voice say "Logan!" He looked around. "Remus' room." He thought. "Logie! What are you doing here specs?" Remus exclaimed, placing his deodorant on the side.

"Ah Remus. I have a question. Have you seen Virgil? He isn't in our area and he left us notes and we thought he was wi-" Logan said, before being cut off by the door being swung open by Deceit. He looked at Remus, whose smile fell and Deceit, who was not wearing his usual outfit.

(How did Deceit open the door in time well- that's a story for another day-)

"Okay wait wait wait! You got the letters too? Logan, thank god." Deceit exclaimed, making his way towards both. "Wait..how did he give you the letters, may I ask?" Logan said, gesturing to a dark green envelope on the side. "I-i'm not sure. I woke up and found these next to me." Remus said.

Logan nodded and paced the room. "Have you read them yet?" Logan asked, ignoring the feeling of panic growing in his chest. Remus shook his head and Deceit sat down beside Remus, putting an arm around him.

"Ah, I suggest you read them privately. But if uh, your feelings, get in the way. Ask for help." Logan said, looking back at Remus and Deceit. Remus was crying now and Deceit's eyes were teary eyed.

"I- I just- I really miss him Logan. I kn- I know that it doesn't se-seem like that. He- he would be the- there for me and D-dee. We-we would play and lau-laugh.. He- he was our be- ..." Remus choked out, tears falling more and more. "He was our best friend." Deceit said, finishing the sentence for Remus.

Logan sighed softly and nodded. "I-i know..he was like a brother to me. He was a nice friend. I'll leave you guys for now. Farewell." Logan said, smiling softly and sinking out. He was able to catch Deceit's thank you before sinking out.

--

Logan rose up and looked down to see a note on the kitchen table.

"Hey Logie! Roman and I are in our rooms. We decided to take a break before reading our letters! We'll start reading them at around 1 p.m.! I think you should do the same! Bye!

~ Patton & Ro"

Logan smiled and took his letter out from his pocket. He made his way up the stairs. He entered his room and tossed the letter on his desk. He plopped himself on his chair and looked at the clock.

"12:59"

Logan waited until it hit 1 and took the letter. Roman was on the floor, taking out the letter from it's envelope. Patton was lying down on his bed, doing the same thing. Deceit was in the other side's kitchen. Remus was in his room.

(From here, this is gonna be what it says in their letters! Enjoy <3)

Dear Dad,

   Pat, I'm really sorry. Please forgive me. I'm very sorry. You didn't deserve this but this seemed right for me. You're amazing. Your puns make me laugh. You make a wonderful friend Patton. You deserve a "Patt-on" the back for that. I'm glad you learned how to accept Remus and Dee.

   You don't know how much that means to me. You're really loving and caring. I hope you take care of yourself more. Your feelings aren't stupid or dumb. They matter a lot. You make an amazing dad. Your cooking is delicious. You treat us like we're your kids.

  Patton. I love you dad. Take care of yourself too. Love ya. Keep being awesome. famILY. I'll come back,  not soon though.

                                                      ~Virgil

Dear Roman,

  Roman..i'm really sorry. Please please please, forgive me. You're a really cool guy. You may not think the same but I do. Patton does. Logan does. Deceit does. Thomas does. Even Remus does. You're a lovable dork and that's why you're my closest friend.

  You deserve the world Princey. You're amazing. You're cool. You're sweet. Kind. Wonderful. Smart. You're YOU Roman. You're "Really Obviously Mascular And Nice". R-O-M-A-N. I'm glad that we moved our differences away. Sureee, call me out for being cliche. But I'm saying the truth.

  You are my best friend. Patton is my dad. Logan is like my brother. Deceit IS my brother. Remus is also my friend.  But you, you're my closest friend. My friend. The friend who would look out for me when the others are away.

  Roman, I'm sorry but I can't keep my feelings away now. I like love you Roman. I always have. Not the best friend love. Love. Love as in late cuddle sessions and movie nights. Roman. I love you, Roman. I'm sorry that you have to go through this, really I am. But this is what feels right for me, and I hope you understand. I understand if you can't forgive or if you don't love me. I really do.

 For now stay safe, this isn't the end. I'll return. Just not soon. Te amo con todo mi corazón.

                                  Lots of l♡ve, Virgil

Silence fills the whole mindscape. Nothing but silence. A pin could drop and everyone would hear. No one dare moves.

Patton's the first to break. He bursts into tears and holds a patch from Virgil's jacket that came with the letter close to him.

Remus follows next. His sobs get louder as he slowly brings up the patch of Virgil's jacket to get a better look at.

 Deceit is next, unable to let go of the patch of his little brother's jacket. Every sob came with more pain than the last. It just hurts.

Logan has never felt so broken in his entire life. His whole body shook with choked out sobs as he buries his hair in his hands, staring at the patch in his lap.

Roman, Roman couldn't breathe. He loved Virgil. Virgil was his dream. Roman shook his head in disbelief as his shaky hands held the final patch in his hand. Every sob came faster than the last.

And there left the sides. Missing the only thing that held them together. Patton's son. Remus' best friend. Logan's best friend. Deceit's little brother. Roman's love. Virgil is gone.

 When would he come back? And...will he keep to his word?

How It All Started

Summary: This is how Deceit even ended up in the other sides poly relationship.

Word Count: 4702

Warnings: Torture, mentions of abuse, um...Remus....yeah I know I said I wouldn’t write about the man, but eh he was essential for this story.

Pairings: DLAMP

“Roman we are not watching Cinderella again!” Virgil yelled, jumping for the remote in Roman’s hands.

“Jump for it Hot Topic.” Roman said to his boyfriend, while the other three of their boyfriends face palmed.

“Since it’s the anniversary of Deceit joining our relationship...shouldn’t we let him choose?” Logan asked, holding Deceit’s hand. He still wasn’t much for the fluff of the relationship but he was fine with the hand holding.

“Let’s not watch the Jungle Book.” Deceit hissed out.

“Ooo! It’s been a while since we’ve watched that!” Patton smiled. Roman found the movie, and Virgil found his way into his seat. Roman sat down in between Virgil and Deceit, and as the movie played Deceit just remembered everything that lead up to this.

A year ago

Deceit was assisting everyone in the creation of their little pride party. They threw these every year ever since the four of them had gotten together, so Deceit was never invited as they didn’t really like him to begin with. This year was different however, Deceit was rather good when they weren’t on screen saying things like he had to go and stop Remus from escaping from the gate. So the sides inevitably invited Deceit, who at first was reluctant to go. Patton had begged the snake boi to join, and still stood his ground. Virgil ended up getting a little sick so the yellow section of the party would have been completely neglected if Deceit hadn’t came to help. Logan gave Deceit specific rules, nothing out of the ordinary but he did say that it all had to be lined up with the previous color. He was only going to set up decorations that were more focused around the colors yellow and green. Patton and Logan were handling the blues, Virgil was on the purple, and Roman took over red and orange. Deceit figured it was for the best, as these were the areas in which they were more comfortable with creating decorations for. As Deceit finished up with yellow he took a step back to admire his own work, and he began working on green.they were trying to get this all perfect adding their own style to each section. Deceit was finished, and began to leave heading back for his gate guarding duties, when Roman had walked up behind Deceit.

“Deceit could I ask you something about the yellow area?” Roman asked, tapping Deceit’s shoulder.

“Um no.” Deceit said, and Roman pointed at balloons, and table. Deceit stared at it for a bit when he realized, everything was not  lined up, which went against Logan’s rules. Deceit scrambled back over attempting to fix his mistake before the logical side had noticed. Which he was lucky enough to do with the help of Roman of course.

“I didn’t need your help.” Deceit mumbled, rubbing his arm. Roman chuckled, a smug smile on his face.

“Well I want the decorations to look good just as everybody else wants them to.” Roman said, walking over to Virgil and the rest of the group. This left Deceit on his own, he had made time to come and help the group set up for their party, but he had a job to go back to. He walked away before the other sides could see him leave to guard the gate that let any dark side leave their territory. It was a lonely job, as the only company he ever got was when Remus attempted to go and invade Thomas’s mind. Deceit sat down on the ground by the gate, only to hear a very familiar voice.

“So do you ever just think about ruining their party by killing Virgil.” Remus said, as he held onto the bars trying to break them. Deceit smacked his hand, and glared at Remus.

“Don’t touch the gate…” Deceit growled. Remus rolled his eyes and walked away. Deceit was bored, and he could only think about how much the other sides despised him. He saw their effort as them simply trying to be nicer to him and began silently crying, as to not bring attention to himself. He ended up crying himself to sleep, for what he thought were a few seconds, but suddenly four angry sides were glaring him down, with a rather intrusive dark side.

“Did you enjoy your nap?” Logan asked, as Virgil shoved Remus towards Deceit.

“I think you lost something.”

Deceit was overwhelmed, but didn’t want to show any signs of weakness. So he simply placed Remus back in the gated area, as the other sides complained how their party was ruined.

“If you were awake and watching the gate our party may not have been destroyed by Remus!” Patton scolded, and Deceit ended up shaking his head. He wanted desperately to be apart of their relationship, but he couldn’t because he could never be there. He was a dark side, a side no one particularly loved, much less liked. Deceit watched as the others left and set up their party for tomorrow, which Deceit was sure to stay up all night, and prepared to stay up all throughout the day tomorrow. The night was long and boring, hearing the dark sides taking their naps, only for them to try acting up later. And it wasn’t like Deceit could easily hold them back. His ability to keep a hold on what the dark sides did would have negative repercussions on him. So of course the next day when they resumed their party, he was so worn out. He just wanted an ounce of sleep, but as soon as one dark side was down, another was up and at it trying to escape, and they all knew now that Virgil wasn’t hurting Thomas anymore, so they wanted to try getting him back.

“Deceeeeiiiitttt let me out….it’s so boring….I’ll let you look at some p-”

“Yes.” Deceit cut Remus off, although Remus just pouted and walked back into his cell, one of the more easier dark sides to handle. The end of the day drew near, and Deceit’s eyes were slowly closing.

“Deceit are you hungry?” Patton asked, bringing a plate of snacks to the snake figure.

“Yes….” Deceit mumbled, too tired to lie though it always seemed like he was lying and Patton sighed beginning to leave with the plate of food. Deceit looked at Patton, a desperate cry came from Deceit.

“Food….” Deceit leaned against the wall, and slid down it his body finally giving up, it was not used to not eating or drinking, he normally had some breaks but today it was impossible due to how active the dark sides are around this time.

Patton spun around and placed the plate down next to Deceit and then left to go get something for him to drink. Deceit scarfed down the food, he left the plate next to himself, and waited for Patton’s return. Patton came back down with some water bottles, and then left. He didn’t want to see Deceit struggling, and that’s just what Deceit did, he only opened one water bottle and drank every drop of water, and decided that he would spread out the dates he drank water. He just hoped the food would keep coming down. 

“How sweet~ Patton pities you…” Remus says, sitting by the gate again.

“Yesss, keep talking….” Deceit groaned, kicking Remus through the bars. Only getting his foot stuck.

“Sh*t.” Deceit attempted to get his foot out, but Remus took the opportunity, and yanked the boot Deceit was wearing off. This didn’t help Deceit at all, as when he tried getting his foot out his ankle would just get caught on the bars. Remus had left to go grab something, and when he returned he had a knife. He grabbed Deceit’s foot and just slowly dragged the knife down Deceit’s foot. Deceit was unprepared, so the pain was unbearable.  Deceit’s eyes watered, but didn’t want to show weakness. Remus left once more but this time brought more things to torture Deceit with. He didn’t say anything, and just took a lighter out and held it directly under foot. It was hours before Remus got bored, and left the gate again, to go and mess with the sides. Once Remus left, Deceit let out a soft sob, once again Deceit tried getting his foot out.

“Deceit!!!!!!!!!” a lot of annoyed sides came down with one dark side. They all saw Deceit laying down, but figured he was just taking a well deserved nap. They didn’t hear the soft sniffles 

coming from him, so they turned to leave.

“Hello Deceit~ how’s the foot doing?” Remus asked, making his way back to his torture tools, and grabbed the knife once more to mess with Deceit’s foot, but he was able to make it further out and cut some of Deceit’s leg. Deceit finally couldn’t take it anymore and a distressed sob came from him. Roman turned around seeing Deceit on the ground, and panicked. He rushed over and snached the knife from Remus.

“Bad! Leave you fiend!” Roman yelled, as the other sides rushed over as well. Patton and Logan helped Deceit get his foot out of the bars, and Virgil managed to get all the things that Remus was torturing Deceit with. Deceit’s quiet sobs made everyone unsettled, they all noticed the bottles of water that Deceit was relying on, and Logan took notice of how freezing the room was, and how little light came in to keep Deceit from passing out while he worked.

“We should probably make his living quarters a bit more…” Logan was struggling to find the words to describe Deceit’s “room”. 

“Survivable?” Virgil looked around taking notice that Deceit didn’t really have a “room” to really sleep in. It was just the gate Deceit watched, and a schedule on when each dark side was active. Patton was heartbroken, seeing the lying side, so distraught, it was a side to him they never actually saw.

“I mean I guess you could say that.” Logan stated, searching for a first-aid kit which was another thing Deceit didn’t own down here.

“Patton if you could go and get the first-aid kit from upstairs. It would be greatly appreciated.” Logan held Deceit’s foot, noticing the various cuts, and burns around it. To make it worse his ankle showed signs of bruising mostly from his many attempts to escape.  While Virgil took his jacket off to try warming Deceit up. Once Patton got back with the first-aid kit, he handed it to Logan and wrapped his cardigan around Deceit as well. Deceit was warming up a bit, but not enough for him to be wide awake, and his inability to sleep because of the gate guarding duties he was given made things ten times harder for him to stay awake.

“This is going to be painful.” Logan said, as he began cleaning the cuts that littered Deceit’s leg and foot. Deceit was prepared this time, and held his breath, and whenever he felt the pain was to much he’d flinch his foot away. Logan was patient with Deceit as he was used to doing this with Patton as well, when he got a small cut. Once Deceit’s foot was cleaned up and bandaged, Logan had Roman pick Deceit up and bring him upstairs, while Logan dealt with making sure the dark sides stayed at bay. Deceit’s body temperature was increasing steadily, as he no longer was in a dark freezing room. Roman laid Deceit down on the couch leaving to go and stay with Logan, while Patton and Virgil stayed with Deceit. Virgil was sure to run a hand through Deceit’s hair, as that had helped him calm down when he was panicked. And Patton made sure that Deceit was never in a state of hunger and or thirst. 

“I’m okay. You guys can leave.” Virgil and Patton looked at each other but stayed with Deceit.

“You’re not okay, you’re hurt we’re going to take good care of you.” Patton said. Deceit squirmed, he felt uncomfortable the sides normally “hated” him. So he of course hid himself under Patton’s cardigan and Virgil’s jacket.

“Dee do you need anything?” Patton asked, carefully pulling the jacket and cardigan off to see Deceit’s face.

“No…” Deceit mumbled, and then Virgil got up to go and get Deceit a blanket. Patton just kept an eye on Deceit, and made sure he didn’t run off. Virgil came back with a blanket and handed Patton his cardigan back, and took his jacket back. Virgil threw the blanket over Deceit unsure of how to feel about Deceit being in this condition. Deceit slowly fell asleep, as he was now content with the warmth he had, though he didn’t feel safe. Not a bit.

Patton stared at Deceit for a bit before asking Virgil an important question.

“Should we let him into our rooms for the night?” Patton felt that Deceit was in danger after all he was working so damn close to the dark sides that he probably didn’t get enough sleep. Virgil snapped his towards Patton and replied.

“You trust him? Sure he’s been good for a couple weeks, but it’s still a huge risk.” Virgil was completely right, but in the back of his head, he knew that even Deceit didn’t deserve this. Patton sighed, knowing that Virgil would disagree with this for a while before accepting it. So Patton waited till Roman and Logan came back, which they did later.

“Who’s watching the gate now?” Virgil asked, as he stood up and moved away from Deceit.

“Some of my guards, they should be able to take over from now on. As I don’t think Deceit should be down there anymore.” Roman said, motioning his hands towards Deceit.

“That begs the question where will he be living? There’s not many rooms for him to occupy up here.” Logan said, and Roman shrugged. 

“He can stay in the closet room under the stairs for a bit.”

Logan nodded at Roman’s suggestion, and Patton and him went to work on it. They finished up not long after and they had Roman move Deceit in there. The sides then went to sleep, deciding that they were not in the mood to have a movie night.

Deceit woke up, and looked around his new “room”. He sat up hitting his head on the lowered ceiling he had now. When he saw the door his first thought was to leave but when an intense pain shot through his leg, he sat down on his bed. He saw there was a heater in here, and fluffy blankets. Along with a digital clock, which read it was around seven in the morning. Deceit didn’t plan to get up, until the smell of pancakes, and eggs hit his nose. He didn’t realize he was hungry until then, and he carefully limped out of the room. He limped towards the kitchen and glanced around the corner, seeing Patton cooking and the other sides eating breakfast. Deceit instinctively walked away, but when he placed his hurt foot down he yelped. He panicked and rushed into the room he found himself earlier, he didn’t care about the pain. He sat curled up on the bed, he knew he normally wasn’t welcomed by the sides, so he wanted to stay far away from them until he was sure they weren’t going to kick him out and back to the gate.

A soft knock was heard from his door, and then it was opened, and Patton poked his head in, finding Deceit curled up and his foot clearly bleeding a bit. So he walked out to get Logan, who was in the room rebandaging the snake’s foot. Deceit stared wanting to make sure Logan didn’t try anything. Logan noticed but didn’t say anything, he didn’t want to pry into Deceit’s methods, besides he’d just lie about them.

“There. Does anything hurt?” Logan asked, standing up nearly hitting his head.

“Yes….” Deceit mumbled, which Logan nodded, and walked out. He just assumed that Deceit would lie at any moment given. So when he told a truth it was almost impossible to tell if it was. Deceit sat in the room for the rest of the day, and waited till he heard the sides walk upstairs, he limped out to get food, a meal a day was good enough for him. He found what little leftovers there were and snuck into his room with them munching on them and then going back to the kitchen and washing the dirty dishes. So of course after a few days of this, everyone got suspicious as to why the leftovers would just disappear. So one night Logan walked downstairs and found the snake himself taking the leftovers and limping to his room, so Logan waited in the kitchen for Deceit to walk back out. When Deceit did and when he saw Logan he knew the gig was up, nervous he cleaned the dishes and hoped that Logan wouldn’t question why he had them.

“So it’s been you eating the leftovers.” Logan stated, and Deceit gulped.

“No...I haven’t even seen the leftovers you speak of.” Deceit looked around for an exit.

“Don’t lie Deceit I watched you enter your room with them, and then leave with empty dishes.” Logan went on about how Deceit should stop lying if he wanted to be trusted by anyone. It was at this moment Deceit broke down, he was not used to having to sneak around like this, and limp around either.

“I’m sorry I was just hungry, but I knew you guys didn’t want me near you so I would wait till the night when you guys left dinner and take whatever leftovers were there. Every morning I’d bang my head on the ceiling and I just have nothing to do and nobody to lie to.” Deceit let out all the struggles of his living now, he was overwhelmed with all the new changes and Logan could see that.

“Deceit let me help you back to your room. And we will settle this in the morning.” Logan helped Deceit into his room and onto his bed, and then made his way to his room.

In the morning Logan made his way to the other sides rooms to wake them up, he wanted to see if what Deceit was saying was true, about him waking up and hitting his head. He told the other sides of the encounter he had and they were all on board. So they all walked downstairs and listened in on Deceit. And sure enough when Deceit woke up and a quiet “Ow.” was heard, but aside from that no movement. So Patton went to make breakfast and the other sides sat around looking to see if Deceit would make his way over. Sadly, Deceit didn’t leave his room, so Logan couldn’t confront the side about last night. Once they were all done eating breakfast, they all still waited to see if he’d leave his room. Though the side didn’t even appear, so Patton began placing the leftovers on a plate and brought it over to the living room, which it seemed like they were all meeting up at. Logan got up and walked to Deceit’s room, knocking on the door, he heard someone scrambling from bed, and the door was open to a rather teary eyed Deceit.

“W-What do you need?” Deceit tried keeping a smile on his face, despite the clear signs of him being distressed.

“Come on we need to talk.” And Logan didn’t wait for an answer, he just grabbed Deceit’s wrist and pulled him to the living room, where the other sides looked over and waved.

“Yes. Yes. I want to go over there!” Deceit cried, trying to escape Logan’s grip. Logan sat Deceit next to Virgil who helped him calm down shockingly.

Deceit sighed, and grabbed at Virgil’s hand. Virgil flinched, but held Deceit’s hand as well, knowing full and well that the lying side, was panicking. Patton got up and handed Deceit the plate, he wanted the other side to eat something.

“Deceit I’ve come to the conclusion that you are scared of us.” Logan stated, as Deceit’s grip on Virgil’s hand grew tighter. 

“Y-Yes….” Deceit felt surrounded, Roman was sitting to his right, with Virgil to his left. Patton just sat close by Roman, while Logan stood in front of him. It didn’t help that Roman was holding that stupid sword of his. Deceit had zoned out staring at Roman’s sword, wanting to be alert to any movement made by Roman.

“Now does anyone have any ideas to make Deceit feel comfortable near us.” Logan asked, and Virgil rose his hand much like a student would.

“Roman could stop bringing that sword everywhere.” Virgil pointed at Roman, who looked down at the sword and then up at Deceit. Everyone finally took notice that Deceit’s eyes were locked on to it. Roman quickly left the room, to put the sword away, which left the others to think of other ways. Roman came back not to long after. 

“How about we make a new room for him to stay in! So he’s not hitting his head early in the morning?” Roman suggested, which Patton and Logan nodded to, Virgil was skeptical, but then again Roman and Patton probably wanted to make a new room for him regardless.

“Roman. Patton. You two can work on that correct?” Logan asked, the two nodded.

“Oh! We could invite him to tonight's movie night!” Patton yelled excitedly. The other sides kind of stared at Patton, but Logan, Roman and Virgil nodded. He was uneasy, the suggestion was nice enough, but all that went through his mind was:

“Did they really want me around?”

“I-I mean no...I’d rather sleep in the closet.” Deceit said, and Roman frowned.

“So no?” Roman asked, and Virgil sighed.

“He means yes.” Virgil said, shrugging. Roman smiled, and then stood up.

“I’ll get to work with Patton, ideas for Deceit’s room won’t make themselves!” Roman ran upstairs with Patton following behind. Virgil stood up, and in turn yanked Deceit up. Deceit acted like he was fine but he was hella nervous.

“Logan should we start helping set movie night up?” Virgil asked, and Logan nodded.

“While Patton and Roman are normally the ones who set our movie night up, we’ll work on it.” Logan summoned a list and handed one to Virgil, who now was partnered with Deceit. Logan had his own list, and told them what he would be doing, and that was most of the pride decorations, while they were on snacks. Virgil and Deceit were in the kitchen, the cookies were what Virgil was willing to do, but the other thing that was supposed to be for the last day of their pride party, was the cupcakes,which required multiple colors of frosting, and tons of work. Deceit was not comfortable but said yes, anyways. Everything was going smoothly until, he had to make the frosting, and while he was working on it, he would mix up the colors due to someone mixing the caps up, didn’t know when or why it was done, it just was. But now Deceit was on the last color he needed to mix, and since this was it he was out of powdered sugar. So when he reached for the color he needed he put in another yellow instead of red. Virgil was finishing up with the cookies, but when he felt an overwhelming amount of anxiety, he looked for who it could possibly be, he didn’t expect Deceit to be panicking over an accidental color swap. Virgil helped Deceit calm down, saying that it was bound to happen with the amount of work given to him. The two of them just placed a whole bunch of red food coloring into the frosting, and sure enough they got a red color. Deceit felt much better, as they finished the timer for cupcakes had finished, and Deceit was taking them out. He let them cool off, while Virgil began making popcorn. Patton and Roman came in, and took over, saying that they would frost the cupcakes, and Roman noticed the excess amount of red used. He wasn’t worried though, because he saw red and he was fine with this. Virgil and Deceit decided to go to the new room created for him. Deceit was happy, seeing a heater in the corner of the room, and a spare one in his closet if one broke. Then he noticed the snake print on the bed sheets, with some nice fluffy pajamas for him when he went to movie night. Deceit was actually happy, the walls were a pastel yellow as to not hurt his eyes when he saw it. Virgil liked the room as well, sitting on the bed which turned out was heated, how Roman and Patton did it no one knows. Deceit laid down, and curled up next to Virgil, who wasn’t objecting. Virgil took his phone out and ran his hands through Deceit’s hair, the side blepped, which Virgil took pictures of to tease him later with. They were there for half an hour when Roman and Patton came up to tell them movie night was ready. The Virgil left to go and get changed into pajamas while Deceit switched into the fluffy pajamas that were left for him. He didn’t rush downstairs but still managed to trip over his own feet. Roman happened to be there and caught Deceit holding him close. Deceit was indeed a blushing mess.

“I would have been fine.” Deceit mumbled, and Roman rolled his eyes.

“Sure you would have been Jack the Fibber.” Roman walked over to the couch holding Deceit in his arms and searched Netflix for something to watch. Deceit was trapped on Roman’s lap to make room for Virgil to sit on the couch, but it didn’t stop the side from feeling trapped. None of this was really planned, and when Virgil came down, he already had a suggestion.

“What about Into the Spider Verse?” Virgil sat down next to Roman, and everyone agreed with Deceit just silently shaking his head no.

So they watched it anyways, knowing that he meant yes. Deceit was stuck in Romans lap, and felt so uncomfortable, and attempted to escape. Roman let go of Deceit not wanting him to have a panic attack, which he was lucky enough to avoid. Deceit sat on the floor which to be honest was the worse. He was cold, even with all the fluffy clothes he was wearing. So when Patton noticed him shivering, a fluffy blanket was wrapped around him. So Deceit was content now, watching the moving on the ground. Deceit was just so quiet, that everyone forgot he was there, when Patton had asked a question Deceit was sure to never forget.

“So when are we gonna ask Deceit to date us all?”

Deceit’s draw hit the floor. He turned to look at Patton, who blushed now realizing the mistake.

“I-I mean...now I guess.” Roman said, they all looked at Deceit hoping he wouldn’t reject them.

“Are you all positive you don’t want me?” Deceit asked, the movie playing in the background.

“Well if we didn’t want you then we wouldn’t have tried getting closer to you for the past month.” Logan stated, and now that Deceit thought of it, they were trying.

“Well my answer would have to be no.” Deceit said a huge blush on his face.

“Yes!” Roman cheered, as Virgil somehow some way made space for Deceit on the couch.

Present time

Deceit looked at Roman, remembering that he had rejected sitting on his lap a year ago. So he decided he had to do it now. And that’s just what he did, he plopped down on Roman, and stared at him. Roman was as red as his sash, and Deceit had a smug smirk on his face.

“Wow...I can see why I rejected this a year ago.”

“DECEIT GET OFF!” Roman cried, as the rest of the sides laughed a bit.

It sucked, and I know it did hopefully I fixed all the parts I realized weren’t cut out for the story, but now it’s done and is delivered on time!

DUKE will be making an appearance as a villain. There are no ifs ands or buts. I already made an exception to Deceit for the fact that I honestly believe he's trying to help Thomas in his own way. Deceit had to deal with keeping the dark sides locked away. A guard of sorts. But when Remus/Duke mentioned Deceit had told him that the cell he was basically locked in was no longer guarded. Deceit in my eyes was technically a protector trying to keep Thomas from beating himself up. As Anxiety said the dark sides are messed up as Remus had shown. Deceit is definitely twisted but he hasn't shown signs of being incapable of change. So there's my answer.

BNHA Sanders Sides Chapter 3

Word Count: 1786

Warnings: Angry Logan(Although he may not feel anything)

Pairings: Suggested (Remile, and Prinxiety)

Summary: The gang is heading to Roman’s home, all while Logan is having a small fit about having to hang out with Apate. (Oh! And Logan will not forever be angry with Apate.) 

The school day was over, and Apate was walking with his brother to his left, and Patton to his right. Patton of course was next to Logan as well and he had something against Apate. Emile and Remy stood side by side, holding hands. Apate was curious, but he wasn’t going to ask now as that could be uncomfortable to answer now. Roman lead the pack, as they made turns that Apate didn’t even recognize.

“So...Patton...where does Roman live?” Apate, tilted his head confused, and Patton smiled.

“You’ll see. I know Virgil went once alone, but they never explained what happened.” Patton explained, Virgil’s face becoming red.

“It was his way of apologizing okay!” Virgil exploded, Roman turning around only to comfort Virgil. Apate was confused, always so sure that his brother was ace. Apate ended up dispelling the thought not wanting to bring up the topic of relationships, knowing that he himself was never a romantic type. The group was full of small talk, and playful bantering, Apate wasn’t focused on where they were going, but when the group came to a stop, he was shocked to see where they were.

“Y-You live here?! This is awful!” Apate yelled, everyone staring at him as he blushed and hid his face.

“Yes I do. It’s not the best living arrangement but it gets the job done.” Roman, said as he placed a code into a large gate, and then led the group towards the large double doors of his home.

“This is living terribly?” Logan asked, now looking at Roman.

“Of course it is, I wanted the mansion to be somewhere prettier, with a beautiful view…” Roman said, waving his hands around.

“Princey are we staying over tonight, or  studying and going home?” Virgil asked, and Roman turned around a bright smile on his face.

“You are welcome to stay!” Roman knocked, and a butler held the door open for him, Roman thanked the kind man, and then brought everyone to a living room, with a fireplace, which he lit for everyone to get cozy. Apate was enjoying every last bit of the warm flames.

“So! What have we all come here to study for? I have some math homework I require assistance on!” Roman yelled, making Virgil’s face light up.

“I can help with the math, if you help me with chemistry.” Virgil said, and Roman nodded.

“It’s a deal! Does anybody else need chemistry help?” Roman asked, when nobody answered, the two of them split off from the group. Logan and Patton split off together as well, and Emile and Remy left as well. Mostly because Apate, said he was fine with his homework when in all reality he needed help with english, but the one who would assist him was Logan, so Apate skipped his english homework, and lied about finishing it.

“Alrighty! Now that everyone’s done with homework how about he play games?!” Patton asked, everyone nodding their heads. Logan chose Clue, which Patton was surprisingly good at. Roman chose Twister, because when it was him and Virgil they ended up in some really awkward pose. Emile and Remy chose, truth or dare, which Apate hated. The game was fine until it was Logan’s turn, and he asked Apate.

“Truth or Dare?” Logan asked, a deadpan look on his face.

“Dare. I mean Truth...sorry.” Apate, smacked his face.

“Don’t do that Apate.” Virgil warned.

“Oh yes sorry.” Apate looked up apologetically and Logan continued with his question.

“What ever happened to your real birth parents?” Logan didn’t see the issue in asking this, he simply was curious. Roman did notice Apate’s squirming, and the tears welling up in his eyes.

“Um Logan that was a bit to soon.” Virgil said, trying to comfort his brother but failing.

“Apate? Would you like to come over to the bathroom with me? I’ll help wipe the tears from your eyes.” Emile spoke up, Apate got up and nodded, so Emile gave the group time to explain.

“I didn’t know it was sensitive.” Logan said, shrugging.

“Well, I don’t even know what happened to him. He doesn’t like to talk about it with anybody.”  Virgil sighed, and then sat next to Logan.

“The only thing he’s told me, is that his old family is the reason he is a pathological liar.” Virgil said, rubbing the back of his neck.

“Hmm, I shall think over this. I still don’t like him.” Logan mumbled, Patton looking at Logan with a scowl on his face.

“Logan! That wasn’t nice.”

“It wasn’t? Oh I’m sorry I missed the part where I’ve gotten to know him for a year. You guys, Virgil’s family only adopted him over the summer. We have no knowledge on what Deceit is capable of!” Logan yelled, but not loud enough for the boy in question to hear.

“Are you angry...because we’ve gotten to like him faster than we got to liking you?” Roman asked, crossing his arms.

“No! I’m not angry! I’m just concerned that you are trusting him so easily, he’s a pathological liar! He will lie unconsciously.” Logan’s reasoning was understandable, but everyone else just wanted Apate to feel accepted.

“You two need to bond. Because honey, you two are going to have a big fight soon.” Remy said, sipping some coffee.

“Oh that’s a great idea!” Patton clapped his hands together.

“Not a great idea! I do not get along with Deceit, “Apate” as you call him. But if I were to be next to him alone I may lose my mind!” Logan yelled, throwing his hands in the air.

“Well you need to do something, because if you hurt my brother again, I’ll have to fight you.” Virgil said, his eyes fixated on Logan. Everyone was silent after that no one wanting to speak after the threat just made.

“Well, how about the lock someone in a small space game? That forces you to get close.” Remy mumbled, as both Patton and Virgil stared Logan down. Roman, was already standing up and picking Logan up, while placing him in a closet, Apate was thrown in by Virgil shortly after.

“Um...what’s going on?” Apate asked, searching for a light switch. Logan rolled his eyes, and sat Apate down.

“They want us to bond, so the door is probably being held closed, and there probably is no light switch.” Logan mumbled, and Apate listened.

“So...what should we bond about?” Apate asked, he fidgeted with his hands, now wanting to keep his lies at bay.

“How about….your quirk how does it work?” Logan asked, referring to the snake scales.

“Well! Much like a snake, I have scales, and venom, but I have to bite people. So I’m going to be  a close combat fighter….” Apate messed with his shirt.

“What does the venom do?” Logan asked, looking closely at Apate.

“It enables me to paralyze people for a short amount of time.” Apate mumbled, Logan nodded his head.

“Well your turn.” Logan gestured to Apate to speak.

“So...what about your quirk?” Apate asked, messing with his hair, as Logan crossed his arms again.

“Telekinesis.” Logan stated, staring at Apate, noticing the constant fidgeting that he was showing. Apate seemed like he was still looking for an escape, or that light switch he thought to look for.

“Are you okay you look uneasy.” Logan asked, uncrossing his arms.

“I’m fine...just not a fan of the dark...I need out….” Apate’s breathing was out of sync, and Logan stood up to pound on the door. Although everyone had moved outside, the only one left inside was Remy, who was sound asleep.

“Apate, I know I hate you and everything, but….look I’m not happy about the situation, and I think that you’re the worst at telling the truth. But I don’t think anybody should have to suffer.” Logan said loudly, hoping that maybe one of the guys outside would hear him, sadly none of them did. Logan knew that they wanted him to get along with Apate, but he hated the method used. So he did what any sane person would do, and began searching for exits, leaving Apate to panic.

“HELP!” Logan’s banging on the door, scared Apate further, until the door swung open. A woman, stood on the other side.

“Logan? Are you okay?” The woman asked, she helped Logan out, along with Apate.

“Oh dear he must be terrified let me go get some tea.” She walked off, Logan shaking his head.

“Why did Roman’s mother have to find us…” Logan mumbled, bashing his head on a wall.

“Oh that’s his mom?” Apate asked, Logan turned towards Apate. He knew Apate was new to the school, and didn’t want to cause him to go back into the panicked state he was in by blowing up on him.

“Yes, she works at the school.” Logan said, and then smiled.

“She’s a teacher, and she is the kindest woman I know.” Logan stated, as she walked back in.

“Logan I love the kind words, but please don’t call me “Roman’s mother”. Just call me May.” May stated, then looking over at Apate, and handing him the tea.

“You must be the new friend Ro, was talking about.” May said, sitting up straight.

Only after getting a good look at May was when Apate began noticing her.

“Y-You’re….Imposter! The hero who can change her looks and voice, to whatever she desires.” Apate’s panic seemingly gone.

“Yes! That would be me, A bit of acting is involved, but that’s why my Ro loves to act. He’s been in several plays.” May sighed, and looked down at her ring.

“His mom would have been so happy to see how he turned out.”

“Oh? He had another mom?” Apate asked, Logan sat down and crossed his legs.

“Yes her name was Katie, Roman was just nine years old when it happened. She was the Magician like she loved to call herself, really great at causing illusions. She died during a mission. Oh Roman was so sad, but he worked really hard to make his quirk just work.” May smiled, and looked at Apate.

“I’m sorry I didn’t know.” Apate said, looking at Logan who also had no knowledge.

“Well everyone has their secrets, and everyone tells lies. Speaking of which Logan, you’re little statement of hating this poor boy for his lies is kinda mean. Heck, what about the time when you lied to your father about your grade, in which I had to keep you under watch here because you were afraid of him.” May said, causing Logan to look down and away from Apate.

“Logan is your father abusive?”

BNHA Sanders Sides Chapter 1

Word Count: 1320

Warnings: N/A, unless (sympathetic Deceit, counts but like I hardly consider that a trigger.)

Pairings: None…(yet)

Summary: Basically the sides are all now enrolled in a school similar to U.A., but it’s in the US, for obvious reasons.

Virgil’s home

Virgil was not excited to go to school, he wanted to just stay hidden away in his room, avoiding the world at all costs. Granted he was overreacting but he knew something would go wrong, like everything always did. So he just laid down in his bed, knowing that he would much rather get kicked from the school of his dreams than to be humiliated in front of a ton of students, that would hold it over his head for the rest of his life.

“Virgil! Come on! We’re going to be early….” his brother, Deceit, screamed from downstairs. Virgil groaned, he knew that Deceit would keep yelling unless he was down there and ready to go to school.

“Give me a few minutes…” and with that Virgil was up and moving, throwing aside everything, and finding his school uniform. Which was easy for him to do, since Deceit walked in earlier and placed his clothes on his desk. Virgil quickly got dressed and ran downstairs, only to run into his snake like brother. Deceit was on the ground, Virgil being a bit taller than him didn’t make anything easy for him to hold his ground.

“O-Ow…” Deceit stood up quickly brushing the dust off of his body. He was clearly upset, but didn’t want to strain the relationship him and his brother had further. Virgil rolled his eyes, and began walking out the door, the walk to school wasn’t one that had to be rushed, so him and Deceit actually had a nice stroll there. Deceit tried to make small talk, but Virgil didn’t like to listen to his younger brother, as he was always lying about things he’s done, and the rare time he spoke in truth, was about things he really didn’t like to hear about.

“D...I don’t want to talk right now, so please shut up.”

Deceit’s eyes fell, as he really wanted to become friends with his brother, even if they weren’t blood related. So Deceit shut his mouth and waited to get all the way to school so he could go and make friends.

“D, remember, if someone comes around and hurts you, tell me. Don’t paralyze them. Stay safe little bro.” Virgil gave Deceit a small hug before departing. Deceit had a giddy smile on, it was one of the few times Virgil initiated any form of contact with Deceit so of course he was happy. The bell for class rang, but Deceit had no clue where to go, and searched for it as everyone had left. He wanted to find Virgil, but his older brother had walked off and he didn’t take note of where he went. So he wandered the school, his schedule in hand, and a nervous expression on his face. It took him fifteen minutes to find another person, but it was someone who had just left a classroom. They wore, glasses, and they wrapped their jacket around their neck instead of wearing it properly. He seemed to have notice me as he walked out and ended up sauntering over to me.

“Hey there kiddo do ya need some help?” He asked, and he sounded so friendly.

“U-Um….no….” Deceit mumbled, secretly cursing his stupid lies.

“Okay then kiddo.” he began to walk off and Deceit sighed, he was lost, but didn’t want to lose his chance at having a friend.

“W-Wait! I lied...I do need help. I-I was just nervous.” Deceit quickly told a semi-truth, and the boy turned around.

“Well you don’t have to be scared at all! My name’s Patton, and you might be?” Patton extended his hand, and Deceit slowly reached out to shake it.

“Deceit.” Deceit said softly.

“Very neato name! May I see your schedule?” Patton asked, Deceit handed that to Patton, and Patton chuckled.

“It’s the room I just came from kiddo!” Patton handed my schedule back to me, and I just had to open my dumb mouth.

“I could have so found it on my own.”

Patton flinched at my tone of voice, and he soon had a scowl on his face.

“Well! I guess you don’t need help finding the rest of your classes.” Patton stormed off, and Deceit ended up deciding to keep his comments to himself. When class ended, he searched endlessly for his next one.

“Stupid...Stupid Deceit…” Deceit mumbled to himself, bumping into someone on the way to finding his next class. The person was a bit taller than him and backed away from them.

“Sorry…” he was folding on himself, and he hid behind his hands.

“What’s wrong? You seem distressed.” he smiled, and moved Deceit’s hands down.

“N-Nothing.” Deceit mumbled, and the boy in front of him, sighed, and led Deceit to the side of the hall.

“My name is Emile, would you like me to lead me to your next class?” Emile asked, Deceit, who gladly accepted.

“Y-Yessss” Deceit struggled to tell the truth, and Emile could see that but didn’t push into it.

“Let’s go!” Emile dragged Deceit with him.

“How do you even know where I’m going to be for the next class I haven’t given you my schedule!” Deceit cried, as he was dragged around, Emile’s steel grip crushing his wrist.

“I’m just helping another friend everything’s okay!” Emile placed Deceit in front of a door, and then ran off to his own class. Deceit walked in nervously and his eyes darted around the room, finding Patton shared this class with him, and Patton was talking with Virgil, and three others. So Deceit steered his way to the back of the room so he was far away from everyone. Deceit already had a rough day, and he didn’t feel like making it worse.

“D! Come here!”

Deceit walked over, a frown on his face. He tried to hide behind his hands again, mostly because he felt bad for earlier.

“D. I wanted to introduce you to my friends. Thomas he’s a very spectacular person, Logan, he’s the smarts of the group, and Roman is our idiot of the group, and you’ve already met Patton.” Virgil had a very sheepish smile on his face, almost as if he knew that Patton and Deceit already had a bad start.

“We’ve heard that you are a...Logan what was that word again?”

“Pathological Liar.”

“That! And we would like to help you not do that, or at least get to know you better so we can tell if you’re having a terrible day.” Roman said, probably knowing about the meeting with Patton.

“Oh u-um…okay? What don’t- I mean do you want to know?” Deceit corrected himself, and the others caught it as well. Logan scribbled something down, and seemed agitated already.

“How about where you came from? Virgil told us how you were adopted into his family, and how he really didn’t like how much you lied, but he does say that there are some positives about you!” Patton began to smile.

“Um...I-I do...like the question.” Deceit said softly, Virgil quickly walking over to comfort him, knowing some bits of his past.

“Not the best start up, question...how about your favorite animal? Can you do that?” Virgil asked, his voice was never that soft unless he felt Deceit was in danger.

“Snakes…” Deceit said, everyone looked at each other and softly giggled.

“Figures you have half a snake face!” Roman shouted, Deceit softly giggled as well.

“Alright if we are asking questions along that line...what’s your quirk?” Logan asked, sitting down with his notebook scribbling down everything about Deceit.

“Paralyzing venom….I have to bite people to use it…” Deceit mumbled and Roman was squealing.

“You have such a cool quirk!” Roman chuckled, and then Virgil glared at Deceit.

“Anyways D! Shouldn’t you tell them about your hero outfit?” Virgil sighed, and Deceit scratched the back of his head.

“It’s not ready yet…” Deceit mumbled.
