Coma

✨

Cw: crying, angst, bruise

"How is he?" Virgil asked Patton, "Is he getting any better? Please tell me he's getting better."

"I'm sorry Virgil, but he's still down," Patton sighed, looking across the room.

"No, no, no... It's been 4 days already!" Virgil leaned backwards to rest his body on the wall behind him, coverying his face with his hands, "When is he going to wake up?"

"I already told you, I don't know. He's the only one who knows about this kind of stuff, but- well, we can't ask him," Patton gave a few steps forward to come closer to his friend, "I'm sure we'll find some way to fix it. Janus is still in the library, right?"

"Yes. He hasn't left since yesterday, he's still looking through the medical books to see if he finds something that'll help us. I know we tecnically don't need rest and all, but it still concerns me that he won't even eat."

"Don't worry, Janus is strong. There aren't a lot of things that can harm him," Patton said, strocking Virgil's hair.

"You should also rest Patton. You've been watching him since the accident, you deserve to do something else," 

"I'm not sure I should," Patton looked up to the bed that layed across he room, "I mean- This is my job, isn't it? I'm the one that cares, I'm the one who-"

"Patton," Virgil placed his hands on Patton's shoulders, making the other side look at him, "That's also my job. I'm Anxiety, remember? I'm the one who cares. I'm the one who protects."

"Alright..." Patton closed his eyes, and a single tear feel down, "I do need a rest. But I don't want to put too much responsibility on you..."

"Don't worry 'bout that Patt," Virgil hugged him, "You are going to do better for the team if you rest. You are our only chance on retaining Thomas's memory if this doesn't end well. So please, for once in your live, give yourself a break."

Patton sighed, as he ended the hug, "I'll take that into consideration," He smiled, standing up.

"Oh, Patton, before you go," Virgil also stood up.

"Yeah?"

"I'd advice you to be careful with the twins. Neither of them has taken this correctly, they refuse to go outside the imagination. I'm not saying that you go inside to tell them to take a break, that can only end badly, but if you see them around the mindscape, be considerate and care for your words. They are both very unstable," Virgil advice.

"Thanks for telling me kiddo," Patton closed the door as he stepped outside. 

Virgil was now alone in the room. Well, alone except for the side who was resting on the bed. Virgil aproached him, a nostalgic smile curving his lips. He stared down at his friend, who had his eyes closed down maintaing that calm and neutral expresion he always wore. The only thing disturving the peacefull scenery was the bruise he had in his head, covered by badly done bandages. None of the sides knew medical aid. They had done their best trying to help, which wasn't exactly much. 

This had all happened when Joan and Thomas where jocking around in the house. Not much, just the ussual chit chatter, making jockes, and basically having fun. Neither of them saw the toy that layed on the floor. And neither of them was fast enought to stop Thomas from tripping with it and hitting his head with the stairs. 

In the mindscape it had been total chaos. The twins where lost, Janus was confused, Virgil was scared, Patton was hurt. But the one who had had it the worst was Logan. And there he layed, unconcious in his bed, just like his host, instead that Logan wore his ussual outfit while Thomas was in a hospital gown.

Logan... They all missed him. No one never knew how much they all needed him until he was gone. Right now, after four days of him being in a coma, Virgil realiced how juch they actually depended on the logical side. Most of their problems where fixed by him and no one gave him the credit he deserved. He must feel so bad, so lonley...

Tears started to fall down Virgil's face. He needed Logan. Logan was the one who brought back the sense of reality, the one who remembered that it'll all be ok, the one who actually cared for him. 

Virgil shook his head. Come on Virgil, you know Logan is strong. He'll be ok. 

But what if he won't? Logan... this wasn't the first time something like this happened. Every time that Thomas got hurt, there where two sides that got affected. Patton, who got the pain, and Logan, who got the injury. Patton had gone mostly un-harmed this time, since in a coma, there was no pain. On the other hand, Logan was still unconcious. 

That's the problem with being the side with the strongest connection with reality. That reality struck back. And even if Logan was the strongest when it came to injuries caused in the mindscape, he was vulnerable in reality. So vulnerable that he may never recover.

Virgil washed off his tears with his sleve, but that didn't stop new ones from falling.

"Come on Logan... I need you. Please wake up. Please, we need you to get better. If you don't- I don't know what we'll do without you. Thomas needs you. I need you. I need you save. So please, please wake up. Please," Virgil sobbed, as he hugged his friend. 

Now was the moment when Logan would wake up, wasn't it? It was always like that. In movies, in books, in life... Logan had to wake up. He had to. This was the moment, this was the chance. Virgil leaned back, watching the other side, hoping that he'd be right, hoping that Logan would wake up.

But nothing happened. There was no change on the sleeping pattern, no movement, not the slightest trace of recovery.

Virgil fell down, burrying his head on his arms that where leaning on Logan's bed. His body shook, it temblered cause of the tears and grief. Logan wouldn't wake up. He wouldn't be back, wouldn't he? He'd stay in a come forever, even if Thomas recovered. There was no way this would get better. Virgil would have to live without the only person he truly cared about. And that'll end him.

hehehe angst >:3

this is the only kinda stuff i can come up naturaly, so sorry about that... i'm able to write fun and cute stuff, but it doesn't come up as easy, or at least, it's harder to think of a prompt.

So if you want something other than angst, leave suggestions in the comments or something!
