    Summary

    Virgil knew something was off as soon as he stepped out of his room. If he'd been smarter, or less desperate for food that wasn't the leftovers he'd stolen from the Light Sides, he would have turned around and gone right back in. Would have tolerated the feeling of his stomach digesting itself, would have curled up in bed until twenty-four hours had passed and not minded the headache. But he'd shaken the feeling away, instead, made soft by hanging out in the Light Side where quiet didn't always mean something terrible was around the corner.

    He was three feet from his room when a hand pressed over his mouth.

    *

    Pre-Accepting Anxiety: Virgil hasn't been doing very well at his job lately, and not all the Dark Sides appreciate Deceit's attempts to keep them hidden from sight.

    Anxiety makes a convenient scapegoat.

    Summary

    The world goes quiet for a short while.
    I rest against your chest.
    I look up to see you smile.
    For this moment we may rest.
    We talk about the world, its creatures and problems each day.
    We talk until our tongues may fall off, But now we stay silent and lay.
    Upon the grass we rest and watch the birds take off,
    From the branches they sat on.
    I can hear the breeze against my ears.
    From this angle on the grass we can see the swans,
    And how they swim upon the water. that when hit by the sun, it clears.
    I can hear the trickling of the water, I smell the grass, I watch the clouds.
    I'd have this bliss with no other person.
    But my delight of our time together needn't be said out loud.
