Logan's POV:

I went to go get the first aid. I feel like I should regret getting mad at Virgil but I see no point. He was the only one there making him the only suspect.

Then again deceit could have just fallen...whatever. I just need to grab the first aid from the kitchen and then I can leave Patton to take care of Deceit. I need to calm down in my room.

I grabbed first aid kit and walked back to the living room, where there was a tense silence.

I was just going to leave it, handing the kit to Patton and about to leave to my room.

"Hey Logan?" Patton asked, grabbing the first aid, "could I talk to you for a moment?"

"Yes, what is it patton?" I ask, turning back to face him. It's only proper manners for human interaction.

"Could...you possibly help me with...deceit," he hesitantly asked, obviously trying to cover what he meant by also telling me what he did.

I think he means Deciet as a whole? Maybe all the problems? I think he may have realized what I believe is Deceit's lack of weight. That could possibly be the reason why he is sick...although it seems he has been doing this for awhile, Thomas is 5'10" and in pretty good shape. It takes longer than a week to lose at the least 50 pounds in one starvation period. He would be more prone to being sick with the lack of nutrients. I'm not sure, I will have to look into it more.

"Logan??" Patton snapped me from my thoughts, must have gotten lost for a moment.

"Apologies, Patton, yes. I believe I can help but we need to discuss it with Deceit," I respond, making sure to make my tone void of useless emotions.

Deceit sat up a bit, whispering out a spite filled lie, per usual, "I'm /totally not/ right here."

Patton turned to him to apologize, "sorry Dee! But can we ask you some questions?"

He hesitated, before answering, "I cannot promise to you that they will be truthful."

"Well is their any way to make that a higher chance it will be the truth...?" I ask, it would be much easier if we didn't have to decipher what he is saying.

He looked at me and his snake eye seemed to thin, did I say something wrong? He sat up and looked to Patton, then back to me and shook his head.

"/No. there isn't,/" he said blatantly. I might be wrong but I believe that was a lie. Their is no point in getting into it though, he obviously doesn't want to tell us.

"That's ok, just answer the questions the best you can!" Patton exclaimed, trying to lighten the mood.

Deceit merely nodded, I noticed him fidgeting with his gloves. Might need to note that as a sign he is lying.

"So how long have you been feeling sick?" I start off the questioning.

"Maybe a few days," he said, "I didn't recognize I was sick until now...I guess."

Patton went next, "and did you do anything to try and get better?"

Deceit stopped messing with the gloves, and responded with, "/yeah, I tried to eat something to make me feel better./"

Hm, interesting.

"What did you eat?" I pushed to see how he reacted.

"/just some crackers./ I had felt sick," I can't tell if he's lying, and by the way Patton looks he can't either.

"Well how often did you eat before then?"

"/Normally?/ what do these questions have to do with me being sick?" Looks like he is catching on. Need to go back to the general questions.

"Nothing, just seeing if that's why your sick. Is there any reason why you would be sick?" I ask, trying to make him less suspicious.

He glanced at me and pulled at his gloves slightly, "other than the dark side of the mind scape being freezing cold, not really."

Hm, seems almost like when he is fidgeting with his gloves, that is when he isn't lying.

"Well why didn't you tell us sooner we would have let you and remus stay here if we knew that!" Patton exclaimed, interrupting my thoughts.

Deceit looked just as shocked, "I thought Virgil would have complained, neither of you have been to the dark mind scape?"

Patton an I both shook our heads. We haven't even gone halfway down the hallway before to my knowledge. Deceit had barely made it past the white walls when I retrieved him. I would have assumed he'd know this but I guess not.

"Well...yes it's freezing there, that's why remus and I wear so many layers. /it helps,/" he explained, pulling both gloves snug on his hand and wincing when he pulled it up on his left.

"Can I see your hand?" I ask.

"Oh /yes/ I'd absolutely let the one who has /no/ emotion touch my injured hand," Deceit spat, hissing a little on the S's.

Patton tried instead, "then may I see? I promise that I will be gentle."

deceit hesitated before easily taking he glove off and holding it out to Patton slightly. When Patton went to hold it Deceit flinched, odd. Patton did not seem to have any sort of intimidation or threatening look. I might need to note that too.

Patton easily took Deceits hand and looked. Dee-oh look now Patton and Remus are rubbing off on me. deceit seemed to be nervous, almost scared of something. I decided it was best if I asked, "are you alright Deceit?"

Have gave me a frightened look before stuttering out what seemed to be a forced response, "n-n-no I-I-I'm not."

Interesting....I wonder....
