Thomas takes anxiety medication to shut Anxiety up for a few hours. They work, and do indeed shut him up. The rest of the personality notices his drastic attitude change and odd silence.
Prince is the first to respond. Anxiety's skin paled, eyeshadow was no longer needed, and his voice was lost to the wind. His voice grew weaker by the hour, and by the third day, he could barely open his lips.
Thomas' friends celebrate the sudden drop in his anxiety, and a new burst of confidence. They encourage him to keep taking the medication, and Thomas went oblivious to the effects it would have on the trait it was silencing.
Anxiety's lips started to mold together after the first week, they lost their pinkish tiny and chapped surface to become the same as his cheeks.
The traits panic, not knowing how to fix him, and why this was happening. Prince is determined to protect Anxiety, and to fix him. But when his first few attempts don't work, he can only hope a true love's kiss will work.
Miles is barely holding on. After graduating early, the bullying and abuse he once experienced have been replaced by an unbearable silence and a persistent ache in the back of his mind. With no one to turn to, he slips into a routine that makes him feel invisible and forgotten. Can one person really save him? He doesn't think so-but he has no other choice. He's suffocating, and just looking at this one person feels like the most refreshing breath of air he's ever had.
