Good lord I have not posted anything in a looooong time. Sorry about that y'all. :'(

Anywho, have some wholesome Christmastime cuties! ^_^

Warning: Roman has a dirty mouth, as usual.

"The fuck? The fuck! The fuck is in the air?" Roman sang. "The fuck! There's white shit everywhere!"

"ROMAN SANDERS!" Patton shrieked. "WATCH YOUR MOUTH, MISTER!"

"Sorry, Dad."

It was early December, and the sides were all eager to get in the Christmas spirit. What better way to do that than a movie night? Of course, they fought about the choice of movie for about half an hour, much to Logan's annoyance. "The Grinch," the classic claymation "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer," and "A Charlie Brown Christmas" were all on the table. However, Virgil was adamant that they should watch "The Nightmare Before Christmas." Luckily, that had stopped the arguing. Although, Patton was not particularly amused by Roman's profane Vine reference.

Virgil and Logan glanced at each other and giggled. Patton yelling at Roman was the funniest thing, especially considering neither of them knew they were hopelessly in love with each other. The two left brain sides had discussed it before; they noticed how Patton and Roman always stared lovingly at the other when they weren't paying attention. It was adorable. Gross, but adorable. The arguing only increased the romantic tension.

"Hey, Pat?" Virgil asked. "Why haven't we put up decorations yet? All we have is the tree."

Patton stopped in his tracks, almost dropping the tray of hot cocoa in his hands.

"Oh, heck! I left it all in the attic!" he exclaimed.

"PATTON SAID HECK! THAT'S SWEARING!" Roman shouted, pointing at Patton. Patton playfully stuck his tongue out at him and left the room to retrieve the box of Christmas decorations. Roman smiled and sighed, and Virgil noticed that his face had turned pinker.

"Sooo..." Virgil leaned forward and smirked at Roman. "When are you gonna tell him?"

The Prince looked shocked."Tell who what?" he asked.

"I think what Virgil is insinuating," said Logan, looking up from his book, "is that you and Patton have some romantic desires for each other that need to be addressed."

"W-what?" Roman was fully flustered. "No! I could never tell him my feelings! That would ruin everything!"

Virgil felt his pain, but he would never admit that. He had had romantic feelings for Logan for months at that point, but he didn't want to ruin their friendship by admitting that to him. Sometimes, though, it was extremely difficult to hold back his feelings. Since he and Logan had become closer friends, Virgil had seen Logan smile more frequently. And it was a beautiful sight. It only made him fall more and more in love with the intelligent side.

"Tell who your feelings?" Patton reentered the living room holding a large green tote full of tinsel, stockings, and other Christmasy things. Roman shot an icy glare at Virgil and Logan who had begun laughing hysterically.

"I'll...I'll fill you in later, Pat," Roman answered nervously. Patton seemed content with that response, and he started hanging various strands of garland all over the place. Soon enough, he had decked out the entire Mind Palace with holiday cheer.

"Wow! This looks incredible!" admired Virgil.

"Thank you, kiddo!" Patton beamed. "Oh! I almost forgot!" He ran around the corner and pulled out a tiny sprig of—
