Virgil didn't enjoy confrontation much, but he simply couldn't deal with yelling. No matter who was yelling it always spiked his anxiety. He was wrapped in the scent if Patton with all the blankets around him. It was a sweet, cookie and spice kind of smell and somewhere deep down he almost liked the smell. "What an amazing performance, kiddo." Janus whispered somewhere just to Virgil's left. "I adore how you chased the others out for me." He growled on. Virgil felt the familiar sensation of tears welling in his eyes but he refused to give into the urge with the snake side near. The last thing he needed was gossip that he was a crybaby.

"It was just an act." Virgil tried to sound okay, but his voice broke on him so instead he changed the subject back to Janus. "Doesn't this make it better for you? You're in Patton's room. As soon as he enters, send him to your room and be on your way." He growled out. Janus just smirked his yellow snake eye glowing in an unnerving manner. "Are you okay virgil?" Janus asked, hissing out the question. Virgil visibly fought with himself while he tried to reign in his overpowering emotions. "How I am doing doesn't matter at the moment. How Thomas is reacting to all of this is more important." Virgil growled. Not like how I'm doing has ever bothered them before. He silently added to himself.

The two sides sat un a very uncomfortable silence for a few seconds. Patton opened the door and had walked in without yet noticing Janus's presence. "Get into yet another fight with the precious Princy?" Janus asked Patton, which made the fatherly side jump a bit. "W-what are you doing in my room janus?" Patton asked in a accusatory tone.
