Intrulogical

A Dark Side

(Logan's POV)

The whole of my getting replaced by Janus in the most recent video was planned, so I wasn't as upset as I had seemed on camera. What wasn't part of the plan, however, was Janus calling Remus evil or him 'pulling a Virgil' as Remus called it. A few days had gone by since the video came out and Remus was still inconsolable, but not in the way you'd think. He'd been non-stop rambling for the past three days as if he'd gone completely insane. Like something inside him had figuratively broken. "LOGIE!" I was greeted with a flying hug. "Feeling better I see," I said as my boyfriend practically smothered me. "Much, thanks for taking care of me!" He shouted as he let me up. "Uh-oh, you're being summoned," Remus said it just as I was pulled into Thomas's living area.

"Yes, Thomas?" I inquired. "Logan, buddy, I'm sorry if I've made you feel unwanted, but...you cannot seriously be thinking of becoming a dark side," Thomas said. All of the light sides were there. "Is this an intervention? Thomas, are you seriously holding an intervention for me?" "You are a traitor Logan! I cannot have you going around saying whatever you want! It'll hurt Thomas!" Roman's thoughts were never very well put together, but I got the gist of what he was saying. That's when it happened again. The arguing, the pointless shouting in which logic had no place. They were all yelling at each other about what I should be doing. The best part was that they weren't even acknowledging me. I laughed, I just started cackling maniacally. It had finally happened the final metaphorical straw. I snapped.

Soon they all turned to me, I was just cackling. I managed to catch my breath to say something. "It's too much! IT'S ALL JUST TOO MUCH!" I threw my hands into the air. "NOTHING MATTERS! I'M ALWAYS SO STRESSED BECAUSE WHY? BECAUSE NONE OF YOU EVER LISTEN TO ME? IDIOTIC!" They all had looks of horror on their faces as I doubled over in laughter again. I felt something protrude from my back. I felt funny like I was changing. My thoughts became more twisted, my outfit got darker. I felt more powerful. I was a dark side. Eventually, I stopped laughing and wiped the tears from my eyes. "How do you like the new look? I think it's cool! Patton?" The fatherly side backed away. "Aww, is wittle Patton scawed?" I asked, stepping closer. "Cause I feel great! So freeing!" "Logan, what's happening?" Thomas was clearly afraid. "Isn't it obvious, Thomas? I'm a dark side now! Now you'll have to listen to me!" I exclaimed excitedly. "Babe! You did it!" Remus ran over and kissed me on the lips. "Yes, yes I did," I responded. Thomas looked even more shocked. "You guys can have relationships with each other? Isn't that kind of like, well, fucking yourself? Sorry, Patton." Thomas was so shocked, I was surprised he hadn't gone catatonic yet. "Well, you see Thomas, we can appear however we want in the mindscape, so no, it's nothing like that." He seemed to calm down a little. "Get. Out." Roman had drawn his sword and was pointing it at us. "C'mon babe, we're clearly not wanted hear." Remus and I sunk down.
