Heya! Got a drabble out from the Anon who sent in this prompt: "Heyo! I'm not sure If requests are open but if they are could you please do a fic with prince and anxiety? Like Anxiety doesn't take getting hurt well and prince makes it a little... easier for him? If ya get what I mean!"

This was quite hard to write. I don't feel like this drabble flowed as well as my other's. But I think I did okay. Anon who sent this in, I hope you like it! It could be gayer, but ya know. :3 Feedback is always appreciated.

Please enjoy:

"Yes you were angry, but that didn't mean you had to take it out on the door. What did the hinged wooden plank ever do to deserve such a profound kick?"

"It was in my way that's what!" Virgil hissed as Roman applied a cleansing ointment to his swollen right foot.

"Well it's not in anyone's way anymore. You can thank your foot for that." Roman capped up the ointment he was using and got out a bandage cloth.

"I was only mad because one of Thomas's so called 'fans' was being a-wait no. You are NOT putting that on me." Virgil took one look at the cloth bandage before pulling his foot away from Roman's grasp.

Roman rolled his eyes. "Oh please Virgil. At least it's not Logan doing this. He wouldn't be as gentle."

"No I would rather have Logan do it. At least he knows what he's doing half the time!"

"What!? Take that back!"

"Hell no...well maybe I'll consider it if you get that sorry excuse for a blood soaker away from me!"

"Virgil. I am wrapping your foot up whether you like it or not!" Roman tried to reach for his foot only to have his hand smacked down by the darker aspect. "Urgh! In your current state, you have nowhere to run! Give in already!" All of Roman's attempted grabs were continuously slapped out of the way each time.

"No! It feels like one of the pressure things at the Doctor's Office."

"It's to keep the swelling down and protect the foot from any infections." The two aspects turned their attention to the logical trait who had just walked in the room. "Would you rather me do it Roman?"

"No. I'm doing this. Virgil's just gonna have to deal!" He grabbed at his foot once more, but missed again. "Ugh! I refuse to give up!"

"No matter what you do Princey, I'm not letting you put that piece of gauze on me!" Virgil hissed again. The darker aspect had climbed onto the back of the couch trying his best to keep the injured foot in the air and fight off Roman at the same time. In doing so, he didn't notice how close to the wall his foot was. While swinging around quickly to avoid another one of Roman's grabs, the inside of the injured foot was then forcefully shoved into the wall.

After yelling at the top of his lungs, Virgil doubled over in pain and fell off the back of the couch.

"VIRGIL!" Just before he landed, Roman managed to hop the couch, roll under the darker aspect's shadow, and catch him heroically in his arms. Anxiety writhed, whimpering in the Prince's grasp.

"Shhhhhh...its okay...I got you." Roman whispered lovingly into his ear as he carried Anxiety back to the couch. "Logan!"

Logan had already came back as soon as he had left carrying a bottle of Ibuprofen and an Ice pack. "It seems we read each other's minds."

Roman carefully set the hurting aspect on the couch and pulled up a footrest, setting Virgil's heel delicately upon it. His eyes were closed and only distraught noises came out of the darker aspects mouth. Seeing his boyfriend like this ripped Roman's heart and pride into pieces. The prince gingerly pulled him onto his lap, wrapped his arms around his waist, and continued whispering into his ear, trying to calm him down.

After seeing Roman had discarded the gauze, Logan knelt down beside the foot and began to wrap it, only to have Virgil shake Logan off. "I...I don't want it!" Anxiety seethed between grunts of pain. The logical trait grumbled and looked towards the royal expectantly.

Roman acknowledged and held down both of Virgil's legs with his own, preventing the darker aspect from moving his lower half. Immediately, Virgil began thrashing about his upper body attempting to get free, that is until the prince buried his face in the crook of his neck and began kissing and tickling with his breath.

Slowly Virgil's whimpering turned into light giggles as his body relaxed. Roman continued kissing up and down Virgil's neck, but decided it wasn't enough. The fingers resting on Virgil's waist, cautiously picked up speed and began to wiggle all around his tummy. With the pain completely forgotten about, Virgil's giggles transformed into laughter. His hands clamped down on Roman's wrists, attempting to pull them away from their positions, but with the darker aspect weakening fast, the prince had the upper 'hand'.

Unable to move his legs, Virgil was at the mercy of his lover. All he could do was giggle and laugh as Roman moved his hands to the various tickle spots he knew to drive Anxiety crazy. Once Roman's fingers trailed up into Virgil's armpits, the grip the latter had on Roman's wrists slipped, hands falling limply to his sides.

"Pffffahahahahahahhahahah!!! Princey!!! Cut it out!!!"

"But you seem to be enjoying yourself. Plus, I would rather hear your adorable laughter than to see you screaming in pain." Roman continued gently scratching at the hollows, making sure each stroke elicited a fair amount of giggles. Moving his tickling fingers back down their previous route, they halted at his hips and began to squeeze lightly and rapidly.

"PRIHIHIHIHIHIHCCCEEEYYYY!!!" Virgil threw his head back into Roman's chest, cackling like a madman.

"Awww Virge. Don't be laughing like that just yet! We haven't even gotten to your most ticklish spot!" Roman stopped his assault only for a second to boop his lover on the nose, eliciting a high pitched grunt from the darker aspect followed by more laughter as Roman continued his tickle attack.

"Ahem. Roman." The royal turned his attention to Logan who motioned to Virgil's foot. The pair had been too busy with their own antics they hadn't noticed Logan had already wrapped up the foot and laid an ice pack on it.

"But...but...I wanted to do it!" Roman pouted.

"I would have let you, but you seemed slightly...preoccupied." Whilst smirking, Logan took the bottle of Ibuprofen, opened it, and handed a pill to Roman. "Have Virgil take that. The swelling and pain should be gone within the next 20-45 minutes." Roman nodded and stopped his assault only to be faced with an uncooperative, sour faced Anxiety.

"Take the pill!"

"Heck no!"

"Take it!"

"Noohohoho-*gulp*!" As Virgil tried to protest, Roman delivered a sharp poke to his ribs which in turn opened his mouth and allowed Princey to shove the pill in. He kept his hand there in case Virgil decided to spit it out. The darker trait huffed in irritation through his nostrils and swallowed the pill.

At that moment, Patton walked in on the scene and the biggest smile played across his lips as he saw the two other aspects parenting Virgil like he would have. The darker trait was now burying his face into Roman's chest, while the latter held him close.

"AWWWWWW!! This is so cute!!! What happened here?"

"Long story short. Virgil was being difficult about us wrapping his foot up, thus he accidently injured himself further. Roman tickled him to ease his pain and I wrapped his foot up for him. It seems his compliancy has returned."

Patton chuckled. "Ah! No worries there! He was just being salty because he was...defeeted. Glad to see hes TOEtally okay." Roman and Virgil both chuckled at his puns while Logan just blinked at his dichotomy.

"If...you know what? It's not worth it." Logan threw his hands up in the air and marched out of the room, not wanting to deal with anymore ridiculousness for the day. Patton smiled at the two cuddling aspects, before following in Logan's footsteps.

"At least he wasn't disARMed!" The moral trait shouted happily.

"PATTON I'M DONE. No more please!" Patton only giggled as they both faded from Roman and Virgil's view.

Virgil cuddled into Roman's arms, still heaving from the bout of tickling he had received. Even though he had secretly enjoyed it, Anxiety would never admit it to his lover. Seeing as how the darker aspect was no longer trying to get away, Prince removed his legs from restraining Virgil's and set his feet flat on the floor. Virgil's gaze met Roman's as they stared at each other lovingly for awhile.

"Sorry...for being difficult." Virgil mumbled as he buried his face back into Roman's chest. The royal smiled as he placed a kiss into the darker aspect's fluffy hair and then carted a hand through it.

"It's ok. As long as you feel better. But that doesn't mean I'm not getting my revenge." Princey's mischievous smile returned as he began to scuttle his fingers along Virgil's ribs, once again flooding the entire Mind Palace with the sound of his laughter.
