Virgil knew that they were making a video about the wedding but he didn't want to go. He wasn't ready to go. After the whole reveal in the last video, he felt that Thomas hated him.
The other sides kept reassuring him that Thomas didn't hate him, but Virgil had a hard time believing it. He was just glad that they didn't hate him.
Out of boredom and curiosity, Virgil decided to visit Logan's room, wondering is he was also taking part in the conversation. However, when he got there, he wasn't expecting what he saw.
Logan was aggressively typing as he muttered under his breath. He looked frustrated and kept messing with his hair. He looked like he was about to cry. But Logan never cries, right?
Virgil immediately rushed over to his friend, softly closing the door behind him. At first Logan seemed startled at his arrival, but then he spoke.
He fixed his hair and cleared his throat, "Ah, Virgil. Is there something you needed?"
"Mmm, not really. I was bored and wanted to know if you were in here." He mumbled in response. Virgil cursed himself for be so awkward.
"Well of course, where else would I be?" Logan stared at Virgil with seemingly no emotion.
"Well I uh, I figured that you'd be in the video? I mean I figured they'd need your input because you're logic and you could give a bunch of interesting facts and I'm rambling now sorry." Virgil looked away and rubbed the back of his neck.
Logan gave a soft smile and responded, "Well, logic and emotions don't seem to mix and besides, you seem to be the only one that thinks that my input is important."
Not knowing what to say, Virgil cleared his throat, "Soooo, what are you working on?" Referring to his aggressive typing.
"Oh this? I figured that since I'm not physically there, I could put my input in little text boxes. Making my information "optional" as Patton would say." He answered with a sad smile.
Virgil looked at Logan, "What do you mean 'optional as Patton would say'?"
"Oh that," Logan straightened his tie. "Well, when 'I' first appeared on screen I gave two options, 'Ignorant' or 'Informed'. They chose ignorant."
Virgil didn't know what to say to that. He knew that Logan "had no feelings" but, by the way he looked, it was obviously hurting him more than he let on. The two sat in uncomfortable silence for a few minutes.
"Well, if you're going to stay, you can sit on the bed. I'm afraid I won't be very good company though." Logan stated after a few minutes.
"Oh right. Okay um, yeah." Virgil responded, mentally cursing at himself. The truth is, Virgil just wanted Logan's company, he just didn't know why he was so awkward. Virgil walked over to Logan's bed and laid down, putting on his headphones and listening to "Thnks fr th Mmrs" by Fall Out Boy.
Even though he was doing his own thing, Virgil couldn't help but notice Logan becoming more and more upset. While he was worried for his friend, he figured that it would sort itself out until Logan finally snapped.
"DAMNIT!" He yelled, accidentally startling Virgil. He looked at Virgil and his face softened a little. "Sorry Virgil, I just-I'm so tired of-of everything." His voice hitched a little at the end.
Virgil sat up and patted the bed next to him. Logan sat down and laid his head on Virgil's shoulder. Virgil blushed a bit at that.
"It's okay. Lo, just let it all out, I'm here."
"I just. I don't understand why they ignore me. I try to be helpful, I really do, and I thought that maybe using text boxes would get them to listen to me more? Thinking about it now, it sounds like a stupid idea. But-but Patton he- I was talking and- he just." Logan couldn't handle anymore and just started sobbing and shaking. He clung onto Virgil as if his life depended on it.
At first Virgil was startled and a bit flustered, but he hugged him back. Not saying anything, knowing that he wasn't done.
Logan took a deep breath, "He just pressed skip all! I thought we were friends, I mean maybe I'm just misreading all of this but, friends don't just ignore their friends, do they? I know I don't show it, but I have feelings to, you know? I'm not a robot! It just...hurts. So bad."
And Virgil did know, he's felt like that before. He looked at Logan and took a breath, "I know Logan. I do. I'm not the best at comforting people but just know that you are amazing. And I know you have feelings, they should know that too. If they ignore you, then they're just a bunch of assholes. But I promise you that I will never EVER ignore you, and if I do, you have full permission to slap me across the face. I'm so sorry this is happening to you Lo..."
Logan chuckled a little before pulling apart from Virgil, wiping his eyes, "I'm sorry. I know this isn't really the Logan you're used to, huh?"
"I think I like this Logan better." Logan looked at Virgil with surprise. "I like the Logan that's honest with others, and himself. You shouldn't bottle these feelings up, believe me I know. You should let the others know how you feel, or... I could do it if you don't feel up to it."
Logan smiled as he laid his head back on Virgil's shoulder, "Thanks Virge. You're the best."
Virgil blushed, "Yeah well, I know you'd do the same for me."
The two stayed like that for a while, in comfortable silence. Although the two were blushing messes. After a while, Logan spoke up, "Virgil?"
"Mhm?"
"Lay with me?" Logan asked in an unusually small voice.
Virgil blushed but nodded, "O-okay."
The two laid on the bed. Virgil being the big spoon. Before long, he heard Logan cry softly.
"Logan, what's wrong?" Virgil internally panicked. Did he say or do something wrong?
"No it's nothing. I'm just really thankful. It-it hurts. But it's nice to know that you have my back. So, thank you, so much Virgil."
Virgil blushed yet again, "Like I said before, I know you'd do the same for me."
The two stayed in comfortable silence once more before Logan fell asleep. Virgil looked at the logical side and smiled. Logan was good company after all.
