Affection 101 (Sanders Sides)

Prologue: Logan's Dilemma

Unedited

Logan Sanders: The Logic Side Of Thomas. He was the left brain that handles the calculated, logical thinking with reasoning. The learning and educational side to Thomas. Logan is practical and precise, being factual and a realist. However, coming with his personality, comes the fact that he overthinks. In fact, he was all alone in his room, reading a book and overthinking. What was he overthinking about? Well...

Everyone in the Mindspace, at least the core sides (and Remy) are in a large polygamous relationship. Everyone has agreed to love one another equally to prevent jealousy and to accommodate for everyone's feelings towards everyone. Thomas hasn't seen more productive, happier days since this arrangement has been made. Everyone has been more efficient and has a better attitude towards different side's imput. However, Logan feels somewhat guilty. 

Logan doesn't often show emotion or appreciation. Logan is more secluded, enjoying the quiet and letting himself get emerged into a world of words or playing a brain-testing game like Scrabble. Maybe, just maybe will he play Cards Against Humanity. Only if Patton is not around. Either way, Logan feels like he is somewhat neglecting his partners and feels as though he isn't contributing enough. Patton is extremely affectionate, Roman is as well. Both have different ways of conveying it, but they both do so quite often. Virgil is what most refer to as a tsundere when it comes to expressing himself, but he does eventually get over his flustered harsh nature and also show his affection. Even Remy has his own way of showing his romantic interest in everyone, mostly involving buying gifts and doing makeup and hair and stuff. Logan doesn't really do anything to show his affection towards everyone, and it's eating away at him.

The book he was reading just so happened to be a romance novel, trying to research and gather what he can about relationships. He has Thomas's Past Relationships all down in the memory, however those all ended some time. He doesn't want his ties to the other sides to end in heartbreak, thus an even worse and more heart wrenching song that "The Things We Used To Share" he produced. 

Logan sighed, closing the book and placing it on one of the many shelves adorning the walls of his room. He walked over to one of the three desks he had. A reading desk, a research desk, and a desk to hold documents and other useful models. He had his globe and structure of different atoms and cells on that desk. He spun the globe, feeling bored and discontent. For once, Logic didn't really have an answer. He looked at his fkashcsrds and his box of famous quotes, also on that mahogany desk. He put his hand in the navy blue box and pulled out a slip of paper. A quote a day keeps the problems at bay, right? At this point Logan was just stalling until his mind thought of an answer.

All Relationships only have one law: Never make the one(s) you love Feel alone, especially when you're there.

Logan felt even worse. Emotions are still new to him. It was a marvel at how many negative emotions one could have and how few positive ones there are to balance this negativity out. Emotions are a strange phenomenon. Back to the Topic at Hand: He shouldn't have to be so reclusive. He needs To learn how to make himself in this large multiamorous work with himself in the equation. He needs to learn how to show his form of affection so none of his lovers will ever doubt him. Logan wants to be a good boyfriend for all of them. He wants to be there for them.

Logan placed the quote in his pocket rather than back in the box or in the waste bin. That's one quote he needs memorized. He needed to learn how to do this, and he knew exactly which one of his boyfriends to start with.
