T.W. Mentions of panic attacks and nightmares.

"You have to sleep Thomas, it affects your mental health." Logan spoke.

"But I'm just not tired" Thomas spoke, yawning at the end.

"Your body language suggests otherwise, Kiddo."

"What bo-" a yawn cut him off "dy language?" His shoulders slumped slightly more and his eyes drooped before he realised what he was doing and stood up straight again, opening his eyes, pretending to be alert.

"Thomas, you're constantly yawning, your posture is worse than mine, and you are not even paying attention!" Virgil snapped his fingers in front of the hosts face, immediately gaining the attention of him.

"Wha-?"

"My point proven..."

"What point?" Thomas asked.

"You're not paying attention, and you're too over tired to do anything"

"Nah, I'm okay. I don't need sleep, I never have."

"Thomas, your anxiety" Logan pointed to Virgil, "is worsening. Virgil is constantly worrying, slipping into attacks and staying awake all night just to make sure you don't do something idiotic, which you have already done by staying up all night."

"Kiddo, we care about you, and Virgil, we don't want either of you suffering the repercussions too badly."

"Indeed, you are both suffering from sleep deprivation and require a catch-up nap." Logan spoke again.

Roman stood in silence, knowing the reasons why Thomas wasn't sleeping, he just didn't wish to talk about it, or make their host feel worse. He just didn't know what to do.

"You're all not having a party, and you invited me, how terrible." Deceit popped up, startling all the other traits, and their host just stood staring at the wall, completely zoned out.

"Thomas?" Virgil snapped his fingers in front of the tired male, and tried to get him to zone back into reality.

Roman groaned slightly, before snapping his fingers, causing the host to turn to him, "Thomas, you need to tell them, otherwise it's going to get worse."

"Tell is what, Kiddo?"

"I've been... suffering."

"With?" Virgil asked.

"Nightmares, they look so real, and feel real, the fear in the pit of my stomach, the fear on their faces, the horror of the scenario, and... and..." Thomas trailed off, tears in his eyes. He looked away from his sides, guilt settling in his stomach.

"I'm your anxiety, why was I not aware of this?"

"Roman?" Thomas hoped the creative aspect would be able to help.

"He didn't wish for you to worry, so he got me to... make sure you were unaware of the situation."

"But I'm the one that keeps him safe from that, I'm the one that makes sure he wakes up, I should have been informed," Virgil spoke, his voice slightly above a whisper, he was disappointed, "did you not think I would help?"

"It's not that Virg, I just... Roman is creativity, and I hoped... maybe he would be able to help... eliminate the negativity and nightmares."

"But that's my job. I protect you..." Virgil's eyes filled with tears as he looked away. He sunk down, not wishing to talk about the situation any longer.

Patton, after glancing at Thomas and Roman, almost knowingly, followed Virgil, hoping to comfort him.

"Well now I feel bad..." Thomas spoke, gaining the attention of Logan and Deceit. 

"It is not your fault, Thomas, Virgil just thought that you trusted him more, that you would want him to help you with these kinds of things." Logan spoke, Deceit shaking his head, in his lying disagreement with the Logical trait.

"He is wrong." Deceit spoke.

After excusing themselves, Deceit and Logan left, allowing Thomas to think about what was said.

"Thomas, you should really sleep, and then apologise to Virgil, as should I, apologise, I mean."

"Will you... stay?" Thomas asked, hopefully. Roman nodded allowing the host to smile slightly.

The two males curled up on the sofa, eventually drifting off to sleep.

The entire time, Virgil watched over Thomas, and despite Thomas being closer to Roman, for obvious reasons, he also alerted Virgil whenever he had a nightmare, allowing he younger trait to feel more welcomed by Thomas.

I was thinking of doing a Moxiety part and a Logan x Deceit part to go alongside this. One of which would explain the photo above, slightly.
Let me know what you think.

Hope you enjoyed
Take care
