After watching Mary Poppins, Nanny McPhee, and Bedknobs and Broomsticks, the sides decided to go check on Logan. The logical trait had left to go do some research on stitch removal. Roman carried Deceit into the mindscape despite the whines of protest from the snake trait.

"Oh shush, Jack the Fibber. Let me do this," Roman stated. Deceit rolled his eyes and crossed his arms, but let the prince carry him nonetheless. Roman gave Deceit a soft smile, gently setting him on his feet as they appeared in the minscape. "Alright, are you ready Jykll and Lied?"

Deceit nodded and followed the trio to Logan's room. Upon entrance he was quickly hugged by Rage and Depression, Self Doubt stayed in back but offered a smile. Deceit hugged them back, trying to calm them down.

"When you disappeared, we thought something bad happened to you! You should've shown us before teleporting away like that; what if you landed in Leader's room?!" Rage yelled, worry a clear emotion. Deceit pulled back and drew symbols on Rage's hand with his finger. "I know that, Dad, but what if something bad happened? What if they weren't willing to help?"

Depression clung to Deceit's torso like a koala. "Ray's right, if the light's didn't get to you, then Leader would've gotten to you! You're lucky that Logan of all people was willing to help!"

Deceit flinched back, guilt showing on his face. He went to explain, but the stitches kept him quiet. He placed a hand over his mouth and drew symbols on Depression's hand.

"Guys, give the poor guy a break. Remember, he's Pop's dark side, he's still sensitive with emotions and his lack of ability to hide it is causing him pain." Self Doubt took the two boys from Deceit. "You doin' alright besides being mute?"

Deceit nodded, pulling the dark prince into a hug. Self Doubt hugged back awkwardly, pulling away after a couple seconds.

"I might have found a way to remove the stitches," Logan spoke up. Everyone looked at him expectantly. "But it will be rather painful, and you'll still be in pain for a while."

Deceit shrugged, not caring if he'll be in pain. He just wanted to be able to speak again. He quickly began drawing symbols on Self Doubts arm. The prince of darkness gave him a concerned look, Deceit nodded in approval.

"He said that he doesn't care how painful it is; his main goal is to help Thomas and he needs to speak to achieve that goal." Self Doubt explained quietly after everyone looked at him for translation.

"Would you like me to make the rooms while you're doing that Microsoft Nerd?" Roman asked. Logan nodded bringing Deceit to sit on the bed. Roman took the three dark sides to go make the rooms.

Patton left with Virgil to go tell Thomas the news so Logan could do his thing.
