Being aspects of Thomas's personality the four sides did occasionally like to prank one another. Sometimes they'd have prank wars and it was either every man for himself, two on two or three of them would gang up on one.

The whole thing was hilarious but they stuck to certain rules to keep it fun for everyone. Rule number one was no spider pranks. Rule number two was to make sure the prank was funny for the person being pranked too. The third and final rule that they made up to add an element of stealth was Thomas couldn't find out about any of it and the one to clue him on would have to do an extreme forfeit.

Late one niggtt Roman decided to ask Virgil for help with a prank on Logan. Virgil raised an eyebrow wondering why Roman had chosen him but then Roman said "we're going to swap his and Pattons glasses and see if they have the same glasses."

Virgil geld back a huff and said "that's not a particularly creative or impressive prank." he tried to say it in the least mean way he could.

Roman frowned and replied "as if I would stop there, I have other things planned but I need you to sneak into Logans room because he's a light sleeper and you're really good at walking silently."

Virgil thought it over and then asked "if I do this, what's in it for me?"

Roman seemed to think and then a smile came onto his face. "my gratitude." he said with a sweeping bow and Virgil scowled.

Roman hit him with a pleading face and Virgil groaned and agreed to get the glasses but muttered that Roman owed him a favour for doing this.

Virgil quietly opened Logans door and peeked inside to see the trait slumped at his desk. Virgil shook his head at how insistent he was about working. Logan was probably the worst about sleeping, after Virgil of course.

Virgil tiptoed into the room, steering clear of the parts that creaked and managed to get to where Logan was sleeping.

Virgil scanned the desk for Logans glasses and realised that the trait was still wearing them. Virgil cursed mentally and reached a careful hand towards the glasses.

With great precision he slowly began to remove them but Logan stirred and Virgil shoved his hand over his own mouth, frozen in that position until Logan settled back down.

Virgil slowly began removing the glasses again but suddenly Logan grabbed his wrist and it took all of Virgils self control not to scream in shock. He checked and realised with relief that Logan was still asleep but now he had a problem.

Logan grip was strong and Virgil had to let go of the glasses to angle his arm so he could pry Logans fingers off.

After a long tense moment Logans hand was no longer holding his wrist and he started slowly pulling the glasses again. Eventually he got them off and he started to back away but he wasn't paying attention and stepped on a creaky part of the floor.

Logan stirred and looked around, blinking and squinting due to not having his glasses. "who's there?" he asked in a gruff voice and Virgil prayed he didn't notice him.

"I may not have my glasses on but I can see you still." Logan said, starting to get up from the chair and Virgil stood rooted to the spot.

Logan stepped towards Virgil, his hands in front of him to stop himself falling and his feet stumbling slightly.

Virgil took another step back to avoid Logans hands but overbalanced and fell backwards.

"ow." he groaned and Logan spoke in a smug voice. "I knew you were there Virgil, you're the only person who can walk quiet enough to get this far into my room while I was sleeping."
