Warning: Suicide!

-Roman's Pov-

YOU CAN FORGET ALL ABOUT BEING CREATIVITY AND JUST GIVE YOURSELF INTO THE ANXIETY.

"No. If you could do that to Virgil, though."

WHAT? 

I MEAN I WOULDN'T BUT YOU COULD.

"What?"

YEAH, I WOULDN'T HELP YOU BUT I PROMISED TO HELP SHOW YOU THE ROPES.

"Oh. Can I really do that?"

YEAH.

"But..."

VIRGIL NEVER DID IT CAUSE IT WOULD MAJORLY AFFECT THOMAS AND HE HAD A MORAL COMPASS SAYING NOT TO SCREW WITH PEOPLE'S HEADS.

"I guess I used to... but a little magic won't hurt, surely?"

As Ro approached his old room, he started remembering all the good times with the others. 

I'll just manipulate his mind to make it seem to him as if he's been creativity forever and I'll give him all of the information on all of my powers. That should make up for it. Should I steal the information from his powers? Well, he's not gonna need it and undertaker promised that I couldn't get hanahaki. What do I have to lose?

VIRGIL WAS JUST LIKE YOU WHEN HE STARTED. THE WORLD IS A DANGEROUS PLACE AND CHANGED HIM. JUST LIKE IT'LL CHANGE YOU.

Then I'll just have to tie up all my affairs.

I HOPE YOU DO.

As Ro knocked on the door he called out, "Virgil."

"Oh hello Roman, I wanted to come down to your room to catch up but I thought you'd want some alone time and the ideas have just been pouring. Pouring I tell you."

"Ro. Call me Ro. A name change for a job change. I'm glad, I wanted to talk about that. You are the creative side now so wouldn't it be best to leave all the anxious parts behind. Including the memories."

"What are you talking about Roma-Ro. You can't do that!"

Ro didn't answer and simply pinned Virgil down and used his power to knock Verge unconcious. 

Now to take his memories and put slightly altered versions of my memory in their place.

As Ro received Virgil's memories, he was shocked. Was this really Virgil's world? No wonder he was depressed. The world wasn't sunshine and rainbows, indeed. I guess Virgil and Logan are the ones to shelter us from it. They kept us safe. And now it's my job. To protect the others.

Just give Virgil my memory, no need to alter it except for erasing the last two months. Hanahaki and Death. He didn't go through that. I'll also blur Verge's features so he doesn't remember and the memory forgets that I like him. Good job, Ro.

/Virgil's Pov/

I better go and see Logan today. Yesterday I fell asleep during the creation of an extra special idea and I need Logan's help with the mechanical bits. So, off to Logan's room. It's actually for Patton's birthday so Logan better not tell him.

"Oh hey Virgil."

"Hey Logan!" I never understood why Logan suddenly started being nice to me. We clashed all the time but now he's like my best friend.

"Do you require some assitance?"

"Yes Logan, I'd like some help. Let's go into your room and work on Patton's birthday gift."

"But Virgil, Patton's birthday was a month ago."

"Really?"

"Yes, back when you were anxiety."

"I was never anxiety! Who even is anxiety?"

"You don't know who anxiety is? Mind if I run some tests."

"Sure, but why don't you just call him? Anxiety!"

<Logan's Pov>

"Are you guys really serious?" Ro snapped at them.

"Now now don't get your bee in a bonnet. Also what the hell did you do to Virgil?"

"What I had to do. It's all for the best. Now if you'd kindly not interfere!"

"No way, he's my friend and I'm sure whatever you did is not morally sound."

"Did someone say Morality?" Patton said as he popped up.

"No, I said morally."

"Ugh fine. I just want to fade into the background and not be noticed but I keep getting involved. I'm a terrible anxiety."

"I'm sure that's not true." Chimed in Verge.

"Ugh, whatever, can I speak with Logan and Patton alone then."

"Whatever you want. I hope they'll tell me after though."

"He's a way better creativity than I ever was." Roman said as he walked around the corner to where Virgil couldn't hear them.

#Roman's Pov#

"That's not true. You were a great creativity." Said Patton.

"No I wasn't but let's not fight about this now."

"What did you do to him?" Logan seethed.

"I took away his memories of being anxiety and replaced them with mine."

"So he has your memories?"

"Yep, but I decided that wasn't enough so I basically erased anxiety from the memory."

"That's why he didn't even know that anxiety existed."

"Yup. Logan, I realised that you and me are the protectors. We protect creativity and morality from seeing the harsh cruel world around. I've always been a fighter. He's always been a fighter. We fought for different things. I'm only thinking about thomas now. I'll do what's right by him. Protect him. I don't need to be cared for because I don't care about being cared for or accepted. I only care about thomas's wellbeing. So I'd appreciate if you left virgil to be none the wiser."

"Roman. You're worried everything will turn out just the same as before. Well, you can't alter fate. Why don't you clean your slate as well?" Logan was calm and collected.

"Then everything will go back to square one and all of this will have been for nothing. Despite all this, I still love him and I won't let him get hanahaki."

"Pardon?" Logan interjected.

"The undertaker told me he would take me back to before I died. To when Virgil was outside my door. He said if I promised to confess then he'd take me back to that moment. So the love must have been mutual if I wouldn't have died if I took that route. I've ruined all that now."

THERE'S STILL ONE WAY. KILL YOURSELF AND LET THE UNDERTAKER TAKE YOU BACK TO THAT MOMENT.

Yes, this is the only way.

"I'm coming for you world. I'll take back what I've done and fix this."

Ro teleported back to his room and acted fast. Rope? Check. Weird bar thing on the wall for some reason? Check. A stool? Check! Was he ready to do this? Hell no but it's the only way. He tied the rope to the bar in a noose, stood on the stool and put his head through the hole. Then he kicked the stool out from under him, the rope tightened and he died. He didn't even lesve a suicide note.

As he opened his eyes again, he saw the undertaker looming over him. "Roman, here twice in the same week, my you've been busy."

"Is the deal to transport back and confess still on?"

"No."

"Then I guess I'd better go to hell."

"Somethings different about you, Roman."

"What do you think? I experienced all of Virgil's memories of being Anxiety and I committed suicide. How do you suppose someone would feel after that?"

"Oh wow... To think you did all those things by choice. You're still in love with him after everything?"

"Even more so."

"Alright, I'll send you back. I hope you make the right decision. Seriously, don't screw up!"

"I won't!"
