Ship(s): Romantic Logince and implied Romantic Moxiety

Logan didn't like feelings. For the logical side, they were unnecessary to solve many problems and come up with solutions for many of life's basic functions. So, he would avoid them, push them down and bottle them up until eventually, he became a dull, emotionless man. At least, that's how the others saw it. In reality, Logan's feelings were stronger and more harshly felt than the others, and all because he kept them hidden. The worst feelings of all were the ones he felt around Roman.

All the fanciful trait had to do was look at the bespectacled man and he felt as if he were melting. Heat would rise to his cheeks and creep slowly up his neck, turning his face red. His stomach would toss and churn, and sometimes it felt as if a thousand tiny insects were fluttering around in there. Whenever Logic received a smile or was at the butt of the other trait's lighthearted and well-meaning jokes his heart would beat faster in his chest and his throat would suddenly close, and he would have to give his all to choke out a reply. Logan was confused, because these sorts of things should have scared him, terrified him even. But, he always felt oddly happy whenever these things happened to him. And once again, it was ONLY with Roman, and he didn't know what that would mean. Logan had become worried that since he bottled up his emotions so often, his brain could no longer tell the difference between positive and negative emotions. So, to end his confusion and help him sort out his feelings, Logan decided to consult with the very embodiment of Thomas' emotions.

"Hmm...I see what you mean, kiddo. Feelings like that can be pretty scary if you don't know what they mean," Patton said, tapping his chin thoughtfully and looking at his friend over his glasses, eyes sparkling with amusement. Logan bit his lip, fidgeting with the end of his tie nervously and casting his eyes down.

"Just tell me what they mean, Pat. I-I...I'm so confused. Is there something wrong with me?" Logic murmured, and Morality's eyes softened at how helpless the other trait sounded. Getting up from the armchair he was sitting in, Patton walked over and plopped on the couch next to Logan, taking his hands in his and squeezing them reassuringly. Logan glanced up and let out an offended gasp when he saw that Patton was resisting the urge to giggle, his lips pursed and his eyes shining. Patton burst out laughing and wrapped his arms around Logan, his shoulders shaking with the force of his laughter.

"I-I'm sorry, you're just so adorable! I can't believe you haven't realized it yet!" Morality giggled, letting go of Logic and hugging his knees to his chest.

"Don't realize what?!" Logan practically shrieked, his eyes welling up with tears of frustration. Ugh, too many feelings!

"You're in love with Princey," Patton said, his voice softer, smiling gently at Logan and fighting off the last of his giggles. Logan froze, blinking, and shook his head. In love...? Why would he be in love with Roman? Sure, Logan had a lot of respect for him. He was confident in his abilities as Thomas' creative side, he could always make Logan smile when he was having a bad day, he acted like an egotistical jerk but was really one of the sweetest people Logan had ever had the pleasure to meet, he had a regal air about him that demanded respect even though he never really asked for it, Logan was one of the few people Roman ever opened up to about his negative feelings, he had a phenomenal singing voice, he was so very handsome in a way none of them could ever dream to be, everything about his just seemed to be so effortless and perfect, he always made Logan feel like he was important and needed and-

Oh.

"Oh no... No, no, no, no, no," Logan whispered, clenching his fists and closing his eyes, taking in a shaky breath and closing his eyes. "H-He...I can't be. Th-That's impossible! I'm not meant to feel those sorts of things. I can't!" Logan insisted, opening his eyes and glaring at Patton ferociously. Morality simply smiled and pulled Logan into a hug, ignoring the way he stiffened and gently rubbed his back.
