Romans POV

After a while of Virge and Paranoia whispering, they figured out where they thought he was.
"He's at one of his secret bases, I'd guess. It's underneath the statue of King Creativity. You do the password, it opens, and his base is right there. I could show you where it is, and we could go... talk to him." Virge said.
"Yeah, it's fairly simple, and we've both been there before." Paranoia said.
"Okay, that makes sense... now we just need a plan..." I mused, trying to think of a plan.
"Well, really, he'll know we're there when it opens. There's no need to plan our inevitable defeat..." Vi trailed off.
"Virge, we will survive this, and save Patton, I promise." I said, hoping he'd believe me. Heck, I didn't even believe myself.
"Okay, if ya say so, Princey." Virge said, rolling his eyes.
"I do believe Virgil has a point, though, Roman. He will most likely know when we open the entrance to his base, so there's no need for a plan, really, except when we fight, for which the statistics say that here's a 80% chance we fight." Logan said, knowledgeably.
"Okay, well let's plan our attack strategy." I said, and we started planning.
Virge has his fire, I have my sword, Logan has a wand, and Paranoia has a crossbow, and Emile had a... magical pencil? (Why do I feel like there's a cartoon/anime where a person has a magic pencil? Oh well, I had no ideas, so... this is what y'all are getting!)
Okay, then.
Patton also has his bö staff, but I doubt he'd help us.
Thomas said he'd sit this one out with Patton, and we agreed, since they were both too weak from not enough food and sleep.
We were ready, so we went into Imagination.
——
When we got to the point in between mine and Remus' kingdom, we found the statue of King Creativity.
Vi did the password, and we went inside, tiptoeing down the stairs, having our weapons ready. Or a pencil, in Emile's case.
When we got down there, we saw Remy... just, standing there, surrounded by a weird glow...
An orange glow.
"Remy!" Emile called. We all looked at him, and he looked down. It was hard to tell in the dark, but he seemed to be... blushing?
Later, Mr. Romance. Focus.
"Okay, guys... we gotta try and be quie-" Vi started to say, but was cut off when we heard a familiar laugh. Well, more of a cackle, really.
"Oh, you guys think you could just sneak in here? You almost made it, but unfortunately, your little friend decided to scream 'Remy'... now, you're all dead." Insanity said, and it was creepy how... sane he was when he said that crazy sentence.
We quickly descended the last few stairs, and were prepared. Emile had his pencil a centimetre away from the paper, prepared to draw whatever was needed, Virge's hands were already lit, my sword was out of its sheath, Logan's wand was raised, and Paranoia already had an arrow in his crossbow.
We were ready.
Suddenly, Remy's eyes opened, and he just stared at all of us. Only when my eyes were getting heavy did I understand what he was doing.
"Guys, look away!" I said. "He's trying time make us fall asleep, and he can only do that with eye contact!"
I quickly looked at everyone, and noticed that their eyelids were dropping, but they turned away.
"Okay... well if we can't look at Remy, and Insanity's standing next to him... what'll we do?" Virge asked.
"Well... I suppose I could cast a spell... but if it misses, it might hi-" Logan started.
"You're not gonna hit Remy!" Emile said, then he looked down again.
"It's fine, Emile, you like him. But, for now, let's not hit the poor guy. Instead... let's figure out how to lure Insanity here." I whispered. Emile went bright red when I said that he liked Remy, and we started planning how to get Insanity over to us.
——
It was almost a shame we didn't bring Remus or Janus, cause I was sure they'd like our plan. It involved deception, and a little bit of craziness, like what Remus would put into Thomas' mind before he'd sleep.
We had Emile draw it, and it came to life.
Standing there, was a naked hula girl. (What can I say? I asked my Remus for an idea... and that's what I got... I feel bad for everyone, including myself)
After a little bit, Insanity started moving closer to the girl, obviously interested.
We had been taking turns sneaking peeks towards Insanity and Remy. Remy's eyes stayed open, so that's why we could only peek.
When he started moving towards her, we were happy. Until, he threw a throwing knife at the hula girl, effectively killing her.
"Silly people. I'm gay! Just like Thomas, and just like all of you!" Insanity said, cackling again.
"Freak... I didn't think about that..." I admitted, shamefaced.
"It's fine, Ro. How did we know? For all we knew... he could've been straight..." Virge said, trying to make me feel better.
"Actually, the chance of him being straight and one of Thomas' Sides was very low. Like, less than 3%." Logan corrected.
"Logan, shut up! I'm tryin' a make Roman feel better!" Vi said.
"Okay, okay. You two are both pretty." I said, stoping their argument.
"'Trying to'." Logan corrected quietly.
"Okay, well... that didn't work, now what?" I asked.
"Well... we could always loop around." Paranoia suggested.
"Or, I could create something and have it attack him. Or, multiple things, so that he'd focus on those, we'd be able to save Remy." Emile suggested.
"How about, half of us loop around, to save Remy, as Emile creates those things to attack him? It might work... after all, he'd never even notice we're saving Remy, since Remy's behind him now, and he'd be too busy attacking those things to get Remy back by the time he notices!" I whispered, compromising, and making the ideas even better.
"Yes! That's a... good idea, Roman." Logan said, and he was calm by the end.
"C'mon, you know you loved it, nerd!" I said, teasingly.
"Fine... perhaps I did... prefer it, over the other ideas that were made." Logan said.
"Okay, guys. Let's figure out who does what, and quick!" Vi said, and we starting planning our new idea out.

I have no idea how this'll go, hopefully well, but... I don't have plans for anything, except a couple ideas bouncing around in my head. Other than that....
So, yeah, we're basically both feeling the surprise at the same time, so...

BAI!!!!!!
