Deceit's Problem

A shift in pace

"We are so lost." Patton said, arms wrapped around his small frame. They had been travelling in the mindscape for two days and Roman kept saying the exit was, "Just up ahead," or "We are nearly there." Roman huffed. "We are not lost, we are nearly just taking a detour." Logan pushed his glasses up his face, "Incorrect. We passed that fern three times these past two days." Roman groaned, "I will not regret taking us to the snow biome this time."

Patton put his cat hoodie on that was tied around his neck and shoulders. "It's okay kiddo. We could just build a snowman or make snow angels." Roman sighed, "We did that when we first got here. Plus I have this bad feeling..." Logan huffed, "Just because Remus is 'the bad twin', doesn't mean you shouldn't trust him alone in the house."

Patton bounced in front of Roman, "Remember Virgil and Deceit will be with him. I know you still don't 100% trust Deceit, but I know for a fact you trust Virgil." Logan then said, "Yes, you need not to worry... lit ...Logan is here to supply you with knowledge." Patton and Roman looked at him. "What?" Roman smiled, "Wrong vocab card Logan."

The next couple of minutes were spent like this: Roman was teaching Logan about being "lit", Patton had made not three... not four... but TWO... two snow dogs, followed by a snow angel and Logan practiced being 'lit.'

"Hopefully that bought us some time." Roman said, sitting down on a large rock as he retied his shoe lace. "That was 33 minutes and 40 seconds." Logan said looking up from his watch. Roman groaned. "Ughhhhhhhhh. I can't be bothered with this anymore." He dramatically placed one arm over his head.

Patton sat down next to him. "At least we are together. And look on the bright side, the more we are in the mindscape the better Thomas's well-being is!" He fist pumped the air. Logan folded his arms over his chest. "Yes, That is a positive outcome. If we begin to be pessimistic, we could start to affect Thomas. And being the so called fam to him, we should look after him."

Patton hugged him, "You got your slang right!" Logan looked down at Patton, before hugging him back. "Yes. I am very intelligent in that area." Roman chuckled, "Sure you are Logan." Logan was back to being serious as he let go of Patton. "Let's make a deal Roman. We keep walking round for another 5 hours, and if we are still here we are lost."

Roman pondered it for a moment, before taking his hand. "Sure. I THE GREAT (PAPYRUS) PRINCE ROMAN SHALL GET US OUT OF HERE!!!" Roman took the lead, as Patton and Logan trotted close behind him....

"I'll get us out of here..."
