The interview ended up going very well! Thanks to Logan's preparations, Virgil was calm throughout the show. Roman and Patton had a blast helping Thomas answer questions and overall they all thought it went super well!

"Guys that went so well!" Thomas cheered.

"Roman my outfit looked awesome!" Thomas smiled.
Roman puffed out his chest with pride.
"Virgil your stayed so calm, I'm super proud of you!"
Virgil blushed.
"Patton I really feel like we got to express whats awesome about being a Youtuber, thank you!"
"Aw kiddo!" Patton smiled.

Logan waited for his praise, but it never came. Logan looked down sadly. He had worked really hard to prepare and helped the others do the same! Where was his compliment?
Logan was about to sadly sink out when-

"But what if the TV studio exploded while you were there?!" Remus had appeared sitting on the TV.
"Remus?!" The others gasped.
Logan stayed silent, but offered a wave.
Remus waved back.

"What are you doing here?" Patton asked.
"What? I saw the interview and I just was thinking what would happen if the Host had a heart attack-"
"Enough of that Remus!" Roman scolded. "We don't need that right now!"
"Fine! Fine!" Remus shrugged.

Remus turned to Logan.
"Hey Logan?" Remus smirked.
"Yes Remus?" Logan asked.
"The Oven Exploded!" Remus recited the inside joke.

Logan tried to hold it he really did! But he laughed. He laughed really hard. Remembering the explosion, the smiles, the good times, it felt great.

The others just looked confused. "The oven exploded"? What was that supposed to mean? And why did Logan laugh at it? Logan never laughs!!

"Thanks Remus," Logan smiled softly. "I needed that."
"Of course buddy!" Remus smiled sincerely.
"Now get on outta here, I imagine everyone is pretty on edge." He gestured around to the other sides and Thomas. Honestly he could care less, he acted as if they weren't there.
"Alrighty, see ya!" Remus waved and sunk out.

It was silent for a moment. Everyone stared at Logan in shock.
"....What?" Logan asked, honestly confused.
"Y-You laughed!" Roman gasped. "You never laugh!"
"Excuse you, I have some sense of humor." Logan crossed his arms.
"Humor? 'The oven exploded' is humor?" Virgil asked. "What does that even mean?"
"Its an inside joke, doesn't matter." Logan waved him off.
"An Inside Joke?" Patton asked. "When would you have had the time with him to make an inside joke?"
"Really everyone, it does not matter!" Logan was getting irritated.

He couldn't let them know what was going on, but he didn't want to keep lying to their face. He needed a way out of this-

"Guys calm down!" Thomas said. "If Logan says it doesn't matter, I believe him."
Logan smiled softly. That meant a lot too him.
"Thank you Thomas," Logan nodded. "I will take my leave now," he sunk out.

Logan rose back up in his room.
That was close. But worth it! He really needed some cheering up and Remus had provided it.

"Logan,"

Logan turned around and saw Deceit and a guilty looking Remus.
"Hello Deceit, hello Remus," Logan smiled softly. "May I help you?"
Deceit looked at Remus. "Say it." He commanded.
Remus sighed. "Sorry I almost got you in trouble Logan."
"What?"
"I showed up and mentioned our joke. I'm sure the others probably yelled at you for even talking to me."
"N-No!" Logan said. "You don't have to be sorry!"
"What?" Deceit and Remus looked up at him.
"Before you showed up, I was actually quite upset. I was being ignored and it didn;t feel ideal. But when you showed up, and made me laugh....I needed it. Thank you Remus."
"Thanks goodness," Deceit sighed. "I was worried he had gotten you in trouble."
"Well sure I was interrogated a bit, but Thomas let me off the hook. Don't worry, our secret isn't out."

Deceit smirked. He sauntered up to Logan and took his hand.
"Secret huh?" He kissed Logan;s hand, and Logan blushed. "Who knew you were such a liar. I like it."
Logan didn't even object to the liar bit. Deceit had kissed his hand!!
"Yeah!" Remus smiled, ruining the moment yet somehow also making it better. "Your sexy when you lie!"
Deceit rolled his eyes and Logan blushed even harder.

"Well we'll take our leave," Deceit said.
"W-Wait!" Logan called out.
The other two turned around.
"I...Uh.." Logan wanted them to stay. He wanted to spend more time with them. But what excuse does he use?!

"Yes Logan?" Deceit asked.
"Do you...Wanna um.. do you want some crofters before you go?" Logan asked.

Thats so dumb, Logan mentally facepalmed.

"Is that an excuse for us to stay longer?" Remus winked.
"It is," Deceit said.
"Wh-What? No its not!"
"Logan. I'm Deceit." Deceit deadpanned and Logan blushed.

Logan blushed and hid in his hands.
"Relax Logan!" Remus put an arm around the Logical Side. "We'd be happy to stay!"
"Indeed," Deceit smiled. "We would love to stay with you. And thats no lie"
