Minds Collide - Logicality Ch 2

Chapter 2

Word count: 1246

Patton sat resting his chin on his hand, staring off into a state of blissful daydreaming. He let out a wistful sigh. 

“You’re not listening, are you? Patton. Pat!” 

Patton blinked, focusing his eyes on his friend, “Huh? Oh, sorry Roman, what were you saying?” 

Roman rolled his eyes dramatically, “I was talking about my newest performance which you were supposed to help me run lines for but CLEARLY you have other things on your mind. What’s going on in that brain of yours Padre?” Roman eyed him curiously; a tall man of 20 years with light brown, flowy hair, and hazel eyes. He is undeniably handsome and a natural gentleman. He is the full package, and he knows it. Above all else, he is a sucker for romance.

Patton smiled sheepishly, “I’ve just been thinking… about a boy…” 

Roman gasped, his eyes widening in intrigue, “A boy?! Pat, you must tell me EVERYTHING!” 

Patton giggled, lying on his stomach in Roman’s bed. “It’s nothing he just… I met him in the library where I read to my kiddos. He’s so- he’s unlike anyone I’ve ever met before.”

Roman smiled encouragingly, “It’s been a while since I’ve seen you this infatuated with someone. What’s he like? What’s his name?”

Patton fidgeted with Roman’s bedspread, smiling to himself as he thought about the boy in the library who he was becoming so fond of. “His name is Logan. He’s tall and so smart. Like so smart. Like smarter than anybody I’ve ever met, he’s like a computer.” He giggled, “But he’s like cute smart, y’know?” Roman laughed softly, Patton continuing. 

“He wears these glasses and he like always wears a tie? I don’t know if that’s just his quirk or what but he is always wearing a tie and he just… makes it work? I don’t know but he’s cute…”

Roman smiled, “What do y’all talk about?” 

Patton giggled, shaking his head, “Lots of stuff I don’t even understand. Like he loves space so he talks about space and I don’t understand any bit of it but I’m just like sure whatever you say cutie.”

Patton and Roman burst into a fit of laughter, Roman shaking his head endearingly at his sweet, homosexual friend. “You sure seem to like him a lot Patton but you’ve only known him what? A week? Two tops?” 

Patton shrugged with a slight smile, his cheeks turning pink. “I- I know it’s early but-” 

Roman cut him off, “I’m not judging you Padre, I get it, I’m just saying y’know, be careful. I don’t want my buddy to get his heart broken, okay?” 

Patton nodded, “I know! I don’t expect him to like be my boyfriend or anything. I know I don’t know him well yet but it doesn’t hurt anything to have a crush! It’s fun!”

Roman smiled, “That it is, my friend!” He accepted a hug from his fatherly friend, rubbing his back. Roman and Patton had a special bond and as much as Roman loved romance and, well, love; he worried about Patton. Patton rarely fell in love romantically, so he was excited for his friend. Despite his excitement, however, part of him was still worried. Nobody deserved to have a broken heart, much less sweet Patton. 

 Later the next day, Patton was back in the library to read to the kiddos. He showed up much earlier than necessary to have a chance to talk to Logan. Unsurprisingly, the glasses-wearing boy was sitting in his usual spot, reading his novel and drinking something from his Yeti. 

Patton smiled, holding a tray of cupcakes as he slid into the seat in front of Logan. “Hiiii Logan!” He exclaimed happily. 

Logan looked at him, placing his bookmark in his book before setting it aside, “Hello, Patton.” 

Patton watched him, his blue-green eyes bright and piercing. “How ya doing today?” 

Logan thought for a moment before giving a courteous nod. “I have been well, how are you?” 

Patton giggled at his formality, still not quite used to it. “I’m great! I have a surprise for you.” Logan raised a questioning eyebrow as Patton worked on taking the cover off of the tray of cupcakes he had placed in front of them on the table. He uncovered the tray to reveal several cupcakes decorated to look like cats, aside from one cupcake which didn’t quite look like the others. “We’re reading cat books this week instead of puppy books so I made cat cupcakes! I, uhm… I know you’re not so much of a fan of cats or puppy designs though so I made this one special for you!” He blushed as he pulled the unique-looking cupcake out of the tray, handing it to Logan with a napkin. The cupcake had dark blue frosting flattened on the top as the background with a planet drawn neatly on top, surrounded by stars. The cupcake looked professionally decorated and Patton smiled proudly at his work. 

Logan took the cupcake from his hands, staring at it for a moment before blinking and looking up at Patton. “This was very thoughtful Patton… thank you.” Patton giggled, his blush only growing darker. He watched as Logan took a bite from the expertly decorated cupcake. “Do you like it?”

Logan nodded contentedly, “That is quite delicious Patton, although your baked treats always taste satisfactory.” 

Patton nodded, giggling happily, “Thank you, Logan!” 

They spoke about Logan’s novel for a bit before falling into a comfortable silence, scrolling through their phones. Patton was scrolling through the internet, but he wasn’t very focused. He wanted to ask Logan out. Maybe not even on a date, but perhaps just to hang out and do something fun! He just had to find the courage to ask. He really liked talking to Logan and spending time with him, but he had no idea what Logan thought of him. He took in a nervous, shaky breath, setting his phone face-down on the table and smiling at Logan. “Hey, Logan…” 

Logan looked up from his phone at Patton, humming curiously, “Hm?”

Patton fidgeted nervously with his hands, “Would you like to hang out outside the library sometime? I was thinking we could see my friend Roman’s play together.”

Logan stared at him, studying his face as he thought over what Patton had said. He wasn’t used to someone asking him to go out and do anything, he wasn’t quite sure how to respond. Maybe it could be fun to go out and do something with a new friend? He shrugged slightly, “Okay… I can appreciate a theatrical performance.” 

Patton’s smile widened, “Really??! YAY!” he clapped his hands, and moved to hug Logan out of habit, backing out as Logan tensed up uncomfortably. Patton giggled quietly from embarrassment. “Sorry… A-Anyway! Can I give you my number? So that we can plan to go to the play?” 

Logan cleared his throat, nodding and opening his phone to his contacts, allowing Patton to add himself in as a contact and message himself so that he’d have Logan’s number. 

The rest of the day went as smoothly as it could, with the two falling into comfortable conversation until Patton had to go to the children’s section to begin his reading hour. Logan read his novel while Patton read to the children, sending glances over at Patton now and then. Although he didn’t quite know why or how to put it into words, he was looking forward to his plans with Patton.

While I'm working on music and art and stuff like that, I'd thought I'd take a bit of time to post...this!

These are 7 of my OCs that I had the idea of drawing as these characters at one point, and it was so fun to do so. I got into this series around the point where Deceit and Remus were introduced, and it has made me really come to love the dynamics all of these characters have with each other. So...Thomas, if you happen to read this, thanks for making so many inspiring things I have gotten to see...I hope I get the chance to make more things inspired by your work in the future! ^^

Virgil is a bat until Thomas says otherwise

Why I think Virgil is a Bat

               I’m back, I’m back on my bullshit, let’s lock and load. We all hope and pray that all the sides have animal traits like Janus does. We took Lillypaddon as proof that Patton is a frog (and so died a lot of fan art) and assume the tentacles mean that Remus is an Octopus, or The Kraken or Cthulhu. That leaves everyone else up in the air.

               I myself have waffled on Virgil and Roman’s animals, but for Virgil, I finally made up my mind. Until further notice, I think Virgil is a bat. Here’s why:

1.       Bats are emo as fuck, all my Edgar Allan Hoes agree.

2.       Talyn, who first suggested the idea of all the sides being animals, loves bats. Because they’re little puppy babies.

3.       One of my earlier essays cited that Bats in spirit animal symbolism represent fear, change, dreams, and the night.

4.       Virgil also represents fear, he’s anxiety, in a bloops video he said he was a nightmare, which alludes to dreams, he changed during his redemption arc, and he’s very fond of the night.

5.       Bats are nocturnal. Virgil is likely nocturnal as he keeps Thomas awake. At the very least Virgil is most active during the night.

6.       Bats hibernate, meaning they go to sleep until the cold goes away. Much like Virgil, who wants Thomas to sleep through his problems.

7.       Obligatory “This animals hisses, Virgil hisses ergo…” bats hiss, it’s hilarious

8.       Bats can fly, bear with me, Virgil has an opinion on flying. He hates it. Now if we apply fan logic, the only logic my brain uses, we can speculate. What if Virgil hates flying because that’s a part of who he is as a dark side? This could be a connection to him being some kind of flying animal. Him being able to fly or defy gravity also makes all kinds of hilarious ‘High anxiety’ visuals.

9.       The term ‘Bats in the belfry’ alludes to one being crazy, anxiety is the second most common mental illness. Virgil could easily be the bat in Thomas’s belfry.

10.   The term ‘Running like a bat out of hell’ applies to Virgil’s control of Thomas’s being able to run away from danger.

11.   Work is slow, I’m clutching at straws.

12.   Aesop, the Greek story writer, wrote the fable of the bat. The bat does not get involved in a war between the birds and the beasts, by telling each side he is one or the other. In the end, the beasts don’t want him because they think he’s a bird, and the birds don’t want him because they think he’s a beast. This seems a very Virgil story, in the fact that he’s not a dark side anymore, but lately he’s having doubts that he’s not a light side. He is affectively and animals that is both and neither. And knowing Thomas’s love of Greco-Roman connections and lore, this may just be possible.

13.   Bats are near sited, much like Virgil being short sited at times.

14.   Bat’s use of echolocation reminds me of Virgil’s exorcist voice. This is just my personal opinion.

15.   While you should never touch a bat in the wild, they are definitely an animal that Patton would love to cuddle.

16.   Bats purr, and I want that. I will let go of my ‘Virgil Purrs’ head cannon when you pry it from my moldering corps. You will have to break each skeletal finger to remove that from my decaying hand.

Thus, concludes my list. Have a wonderful day.
