I still like the idea that Anxiety/Virgil is a very primitive part of the brain and gets tricked into things or thinks about stuff sometimes in a similar way that animals or small children do
Anxiety: Everything sucks we’re going to die I don’t like the look of that person over there are they gonna go through Thomas’ car we should…
Logic: *puts a blindfold on him*
Anxiety: *sudden silence*
……..
Anxiety: Where are the keys?
Logic: In our pocket.
Thomas: *checks his pocket for the keys*
Anxiety: Oh okay.
Thomas: *puts the keys back in his pocket*
Anxiety: Dude where the hell did our keys go
……..
Logan: There are no monsters in the closet.
Virgil: Roman?
Roman: There’s a demon squid in the closet.
Virgil: Logan there’s a demon squid in the closet.
Roman: No wait I was kidding.
Virgil: You need to close the closet.
Logan: But even if it was real that wouldn’t…
Virgil: Close the closet!
Thomas: Fine. *gets up and closes closet*
Virgil: Finally you’re listening to me. Good. Now we’re safe.
……..
Deceit: Patton was never real.
Anxiety: Oh my god Patton was never real.
Patton: Hi!
Anxiety: Oh my god you guys Patton is actually real.
Logan: *facepalm*
…….
Roman: Hey Logan check this out. Hey Anxiety, think fast! *pretends to throw something at Virgil*
Virgil: *flinches and then looks around* Where is it? What did you throw? *checks the couch cushions*
Logan: We really need to talk about how you interact with him.
Virgil: *tearing apart the living room now* I KNOW YOU DID SOMETHING WITH IT.
……..
Patton: I like this horror movie.
Virgil: That girl is gonna come out of the screen and kill us.
Logan: Verge that’s impossi-
Virgil: DON’T SAY I DIDN’T WARN YOU MORONS WHEN OUR FINAL SECONDS DRAW NEAR.
i support this
Ok but Virgil with no sense of object permanence hiding in his hoodie and assuming if he can’t see you, you can’t see him.
Why he often uses the strings on his hoodie. If he can’t see the embarrassing thing you’re doing it must not be happening.
I want this in canon so badly now you have no idea.
Thomas: *does an embarrassing thing*
Virgil: Quick! Cover your face!
Logan: That..that won’t do anything
Roman: *does slight of hand with a quarter*
Virgil: AH! THERE’S MONEY IN MY EAR GET IT OUT!!!
Logan: Roman… we talked about this.
—-
Virgil: We’re lost.
Logan: No we’re not. We have navigated there five times before.
Virgil: Oh god. We’re so lost. We took a wrong turn… somewhere. What if we get kidnapped!?
Logan: That is highly improbable as we are almost there according to the GPS which supported by the fact that we can now literally see the building.
(I laughed way harder at all of this than I have any right to. XD)
