Thomas: VIRGIL!

Virgil: *jumps back* stop screaming I'm right here.
————-

Thomas: -I have a job interview
————-

Logan: what if, we did our own interview for you.
————-

Logan: now, I have composed of interview questions that will most definitely relate to similar ones asked in an actually interview.
————-

Roman: *claps* great lets get started-

————-

Thomas: we all caught up yet?

Virgil: god I hate it when you guys decide to leave people hanging like that. *breaths deeply*

Roman: it's for dramatic effect, Jack smelleton.

Virgil: are you done acting like a child?

Roman: I don't know, are you done acting like a worn out mop?

Virgil: ...

Patton: ....

Thomas: ......

Logan: *fixes his glasses* now, let us continue. Thomas, why did you choose this field of work

Virgil: because it's the first place He found hiring.

Logan: falsehood. *turns to Thomas* you don't want to answer like that, it makes you sound uninterested and like the job is pointless to you.

Virgil: maybe you're uninteresting and pointless

Logan: ignoring that statement. Thomas, maybe answer with your back straight, Eye contact, and a confident face expression

Thomas: *adjust himself to Logan's liking*

Roman: *leans over* maybe a little more smile and a little less constipation...

Thomas: *sighs and hunches forward*

Patton: now he looks like the hunch back from Notre Dame

Thomas: this feels awkward....

Patton: no no. You're doing fine, sport

Virgil: and by that he means you're gonna make a full of yourself.

Thomas: *grunts*

Logan: no no. Just smile. You're trying too hard.

Virgil: are you telling him he shouldn't try at all?

Roman: you know that's not what he means.

Virgil: you seem to know a lot of what people mean Roman. Why don't you tell me what he means?

Roman: *opens mouth to respond*

Logan: we are getting off topic. Thomas, let's try another question *flips the cards* you good fam? *confused*

Virgil: ...

Patton: ....

Thomas: ....

Roman: .....

Logan: wrong card-

Thomas: yeah wrong card

Logan: *flips it again* how would you describe yourself?

Thomas: well-

Virgil: you sleep all day, you barely have the energy to make videos, you cry over spelt milk, you can't talk to anyone new, socializing scares you.

Thomas: um...

Logan: think of positive things

Virgil: ok- he's really good at doing nothing. Is that better?

Roman: *sighs dramatically*

Patton: now let's not stray from the real topic.

Thomas: well- I'm very good at problem solving-

Patton: that's it. You're doing good

Roman: you work better with the people around you.

Patton: you like to express your feelings.

Logan: you think positively in stressful situations.

Thomas: *smiles* yeah. I guess I do

Patton/Logan/Roman: *smiles and looks to Virgil*

Virgil: *sighs* you care a lot about how you talk to people. You prepare yourself before each project to make sure it's perfect-

Thomas: *smiles*

Virgil: you don't make decisions before asking you're team mates their opinions....

Logan/Roman/Patton: *smiles sweetly*

Virgil: *turns to them and clears his throat, shrugging* what? it's true...

Thomas: thank you guys...

Patton: we're here to help you sport

Thomas: *changes things so he's back in his living room* you guys really helped me... y'know, figure out the positive things to say in an interview...

Logan: wait but I made so many more interview questions-

Virgil: yeah, I think that's enough for now Logan.

Roman: I have to agree with Virgil here.

Patton: *nods smiling widely* he did great.

Virgil: so is that it. Can I go now. Are we done here?

Logan: *fixes glasses* I do not see anything else we could help you with.

Roman: BESIDESSSSS your wardrobe, you mustn't go looking like that.

Virgil: another day?

Roman: *sighs* but I barely helped....

Thomas: you all helped me. I just... I just need to find the positive things about myself. Sure it's scary... but everything's scary before you actually do it-

Roman: like acting and performance!

Thomas: yes, just like that. *smiles*

Virgil: *starts to slide down* so I'm just gonna go then...

Logan: yes.... I have to continue to study my vocabulary cards *starts to slide down*

Roman: and I have to pick out the most stylish outfit for you couch potato *slides down*

Patton: and... I have nothing to do... *slides down*

Thomas: welp.... I hope this helped you guys to preparing for interview questions. Or even to remind you that there are good things about you. *smiles* welp, take it easy out there girls, gals, and non binary pals. *waves*
