Requested by @ILiveInDenial . This is part two to the last one shot I did, only this is in Morality's point of view, not Anxiety's. They wanted to see more of Morality opening up, and so.... I hope this is what you wanted ?? Anyways, this is going to be a really short one shot and I apologize. But uh... I hope you enjoy it anyways.

"Us lesser traits stick together, right?"
I gave Anxiety a weak smile.
"That's why we're the best."
Anxiety returned my weak smile. He hugged me, something he didn't do often, but it felt genuine, and I appreciated it.
"Alright, Patton. You should talk to Logan and Roman about this." Anxiety said. "Besides, not to kick you out or anything, but you should leave soon. It's not healthy for you to be in my room for too long."
"Alright. I'll go." I said. "Thanks, kiddo."
Anxiety clicked his tongue, his own unique way of saying "you're welcome", and I sank down.
I appeared in Thomas's empty living room. I sighed.
I needed to talk to two traits in particular.
"Logan! Roman!" I summoned each.
"Yes?" Logic said.
"Is this important? I was about to get some beauty sleep." Roman said.
"We need to talk." I said.
"Whatever could you mean by that?" Roman asked.
I sighed. "I'm done, okay?! You guys think you're the best traits, don't you? You think that if only you could have your way, then Thomas would be better."
"Falsehood." Logic said. "I recognize that Thomas needs all four traits to function."
"Then why do you belittle me to the point that all I'm good for is the difference between right and wrong?!" I said. "I'm not a kid, I'm the oldest trait Thomas has! You treat me like I can't do anything right, because I just don't understand! Well, guess what? I do understand. I understand and I'm done. This can't go on."
"So you're quitting like Anxiety did?" Prince said.
"No! This isn't about Anxiety!" I said. "This is about me confronting you guys about all the shit that you've been giving me!"
They froze.
"You never curse..." Logan said.
"I didn't think you even knew how to curse." Prince muttered.
"I'm not the kid you think I am." I said, feeling tears forming and using my cardigan to wipe them. "I'm mature. I can be responsible. I can be just as good as you guys."
"Patton, we're sorry." Logan said. "We should be ashamed of how we treated you. We didn't mean to belittle you in any way."
"Exactly." Prince agreed. "C'mon, Patton, you're one of us! We would never harm you on purpose."
"You're our Patton. And from now on... We'll listen to you more, got it?" Logan said.
I looked up at them. "You mean it?"
They both nodded.
"Thanks." I said.
"You need a... a hug?" Logic offered reluctantly.
I nodded.
Logan came over and very awkwardly hugged me, but I was grateful.
"For the record, you should listen to Anxiety more, too." I said after the hug. "That's partly the reason he felt unwanted and unneeded. And that's why he left."
"We will." Prince said. "And... That includes me. He might get in the way of my dream-chasing... But sometimes he can be a good guy. I should recognize that."
"Good." I said.
"Now, c'mon, Patton. You wanna look at pictures of cute puppies to cheer you up?" Logan offered, knowing how much I love puppies.
I nodded, and we did exactly that.
