I know what you're thinking... three weeks with no updates, and they come back with a crappy chapter? Sorry lol... I know what I want the angst to be, I just don't have any idea how to write DarkSide!Virgil. In these first couple chapters everyone will be a bit ooc, sooooooooooooooooooo

"Ooh, the funny 'storytime!' guy from vine wants to explore his personality by using different characters from his vines! How fun." Remus squealed, a menacing grin cracking his expression.

Deceit snorted. "What do you think the internet will say when they figure out that their pretty little Thomathy... isn't so innocent?" He let out an over dramatic gasp, a suspicious grin curling across his face.

Anxiety just smirked. And Deceit saw the uncertainty in his eyes as he did so. He saw what Anxiety was trying to hide. Anxiety was worried that he wasn't a part of the group, that he didn't belong anywhere. After all, he just hindered Thomas.

But Deceit knew that Anxiety was one of them. They were the outcasts, the ones that Thomas didn't want to know existed. The ones that were bad, the unwanted.

And they could be unwanted together.

Deceit smiled and extended a hand to Anxiety. He wore no gloves, and his left hand had scales speckled across his palm and extending across its back. He gave him a reassuring look. "Anxiety... remember, no matter what they think, you'll always be one of us."

Anxiety cracked a small smile and took the snakelike side's hand.

"That video was boring." Remus complained, slinging his mace over his shoulder dangerously. "They should add blood and gore. Or they could just watch porn... oooh! We should remake the Hunger Games! I call District-"

Deceit cut Remus off. "You're right. This series is the most interesting thing to ever happen to YouTube. I think that it's high time that we spiced things up a bit..." He turned to Anxiety, smirking. "With you."

"What? Me?" Anxiety started panicking, the eyeshadow under his eyes darkening by the second. He'll turn back into Paranoia if he keeps this up... Deceit thought.

"Remus is our Trump card... when we reveal him, Thomas will be so unsettled that we can take control, if only temporarily. And Thomas isn't ready for me yet. He'll just push me away. You, however, are much more scary, and he'll have a harder time getting rid of you." Deceit gripped Anxiety's hands softly and looked him in the eye. "I don't beleive you can do this. You aren't ready."

Having been calmed down a little, Anxiety took a deep breath. Deceit rubbed circles on his back and whispered softly. "Hey.... breathe for me. In for four. Hold for seven. And out for eight."

The anxious side complied. Deceit smiled. "If it's too scary, then you don't have to..."

"No! No. I'll do it." Anxiety swallowed and looked up at Deceit.

Deceit cracked a smile. "I knew I could count on you..." he hissed softly, letting go of Anxiety's hand.
