Purple
The video was...nice, as strange as that was. Everyone was doing their best to make him feel included, Roman especially.
Sure Logan was a bit....Logan and Dad had a little bit more feelings than he would like, he really wasn't looking foward to get physically fought with by the elder for his self-depreciation, but he did appreciate the notion.
Heck, Thomas listened to him, without an eye roll or a sigh or a sad defeated tone, the Host actually listened and even went as far as to make him feel like he fit in.
Actually, he felt like he fit in, standing out wasn't so bad, this time around atleast. But this felt nice, real nice, there was a small feeling of warmth in the hole where his heart should be.
With Thomas tying it all up in a cute round about way and proceeding onto the "happy little message", Virgil sank out with a small smile.

As the video had been filmed late into the eve-he checked his phone-night, it was already quite dark in the commons.
"Heya Verge! Come join us were having a Harry Potter Binge!"
He wouldn't admit it but Virgil almost, almost jumped at Patton's eager exclamation. The other three had changed back into their original wear and wear currently in the midst of grabbing snacks and setting up the movies.
"Really?" He wanted to scoff, to sound at least a bit like his "normal" self but it came out as a small shocked squeak.
He looked at Patton, who was absolutely beaming, guess he was feeling just as much as the father was. Oh great, he was becoming a sap-
"Of course! It's September 1st after all, it's the perfect time for Harry Potter movies"
Speaking of saps, Princey came in wobbling with a huge tray of popcorn, poptarts, chocolate and Doritos. Logic had Sodas and cups. Really they were all set for the movies, he blinked realizing that they were only waiting for-
"You joining us kiddo?"
Him.
"Yeah...yeah, sure thing Dad"
----
Patton all but pulled him onto the couch next to him and together they sat length way, taking up all the room in the couch. Which really was ok since Logan was on his own chair and so was Roman.
Happily the movie began and the familiar theme played, filling the room with its ominously magical sounds, along with the passing of soda and the crunching of snacks of course.
Virgil felt a little off by the fact that he was the only one still in his new clothes, but his Purple hoodie felt nice so he was going to wear it, off feelings or not, besides it was a little chilly and the new hoodie is warmer than the old one. Yeah, that's a good reason.
Dad seemed to like it atleast, he kept rubbing the material between his fingers. "It's just so cool!" He whispered at one point. Verge was sure he blushed but Pat didn't call him out for it. His father figure really was the best sometimes.
----
The movie droned on in the background but he could hardly focus on it. All he could think about was how safe, warm and...nice it felt to be altogether like this.
He had tuned out the film to check on his host. A simple need that was nagging in the back of his mind until he did so.
Thomas had finally gone to sleep after stubbornly replying to tweets. Quite a few Fanders had "scolded" him for still being awake. But soon enough, with the help of Talyn and Joan, his host had accepted defeat with a yawn and let himself be dragged off to sleep by his friends.
Virgil chuckled sleepily as he watched within his mind's eye what was happening to his sleepily uncoordinated manifestor. Talyn and Joan helped him up to his room where the YouTuber practically passed out upon reaching the bed. The two date-mates easily tucked Thomas in before joining him under his large covers.
With his host and friends safely nestled in bed, Virgil, now completely relaxed tuned back in to the movie. However, he found it a bit hard to refocuse on the film as the images kept blurring together. He rubbed his eyes a few times to clear them and proceeded in watching what he assumed was the third movie.
At the fifth he had to squint at the screen and his eye rubbing was almost a prominent occurence. It was usually followed by one or two silent yawns but Virgil payed no mind to it.
A particularly long yawn, during probably the sixth movie, left him temporarily deaf. He blinked and shook his head slightly as his jaw muscles popped and relaxed. The next thing he knew, he was being gently pushed down onto a lap. His eyes fluttered closed almost instantly.
"Get some rest kiddo, I got you"
That was Patton- a good night kiss was being placed on his forehead- yup, definitely Dad.
His lips curled into a small, albeit noticeable, smile.
Yeah, he could get use to this whole standing out and still "fitting in" thing, it was nice.
The small smile didn't leave his face, even as he completely drifted off. Visions of Magic, Wizards and Witches filled his head as he slept comfortably in his Purple hoodie and on Patton's lap.
The father was all too happy to play with Virgil's soft purple hair.

AN:// aaaay, the new vid was the best thing! It was just so great?! I'm serious, Thomas, Joan and Talyn really out did themselves, kudos to them and let's hope they actually get some sleep now lol.
So here's even more good news, I finally got a break from school, no homework this week thank goodness, so I'm working on Innerworks tommorow. Hopefully we get an Update Sunday but if not it will be out Wednesday the latest.
