This isn't an AU, but it takes place in between Becoming an Adult and Taking on Anxiety, and Virgil is a dark side at the start! (You all probably know where this is going at this point lol)
TW // alcohol, bars, very minor language, kissing without asking for consent

"You ready?" Patton asked Roman
"Yep!" Roman replied excitedly
"Commence operation light in 3,2,1, go," Logan said. The group walked out of the bar.
I should probably explain what's happening. Roman and Remus have control over a section of Thomas' mind known as 'The Imagination'. They can make the imagination look like anything they want, at any given time. Roman, Logan, and Patton have a plan, and they decided that the ideal setting would be a bar, so Roman had turned the imagination into a small city, complete with a nice, mostly empty, bar.
Logan and Patton walked into the discrete control room set up in the bar. Roman had made sure to put one in. In order to get to it, you had to go through a crawl space behind the bar top, but once you were in it was a room full of high-tech equipment. It had several screens displaying the scene in the bar, as well as a piece of equipment they would use to play music into the bar when it was time. In the center of it all, were two chairs. Logan and Patton sat down, ready to start.
Roman walked into the dark side common room, finding it empty. He wandered around for a bit before finding who he was looking for. Virgil was standing in front of the fridge, eating handfuls of shredded cheese straight from the package.
"Virgil, can I talk to you?" Roman asked. Virgil slowly turned around, realizing he'd been caught.
"Yeah, sure. What's up?" He asked, his face bright red with embarrassment.
"Follow me" Roman responded, walking out of the kitchen, Virgil close behind. Roman lead Virgil into the imagination, and the pair walked side by side through the streets. Due to the time, the streets were mostly dark, being lit up only by streetlights. It was very quiet and peaceful. When they got to the bar, Roman stopped.
"Could we stop in for a drink?" Roman asked. Virgil nodded silently and the pair walked into the bar, sitting down on the stools.
"Okay, cut to the chase, Princey," Virgil said
"what are you talking about?" Roman asked
"I'm not an idiot, Roman. I know you wouldn't conjure up this entire complex city and take me for a walk through it if you didn't want something from me, so what do you want?" Virgil asked. Roman sighed, not expecting to have to be this far into the plan already.
In the control room, Logan presses a button and music started flowing through the bar.
"Right here, right now
I put the offer out
I don't wanna chase you down,
but I know you see it" Roman sang
"you run with me
and I can cut you free
out of the drudgery and walls you keep in" He continued. He then pat the bar a few times, causing some shot glasses to appear and a bottle of liquor to appear and slide across the bar. Roman opened the liquor and began pouring it into the shot glasses.
"So trade your typical
for something colorful
and if it's crazy, live a little crazy
