"I'm surprised when you kiss me"
Synopsis: Nico and Thomas's first date couldn't have gone better in Thomas's opinion.
Warning: Swearing, Spoilers for Flirting with Social Anxiety, gay-mess Thomas.
...
“Which reminds me; Sanders, you’ve been holding out on me!” Nico pointed his fry at Thomas, smirking accusingly.
The two were on their first date, and everything had been going real smooth, and Janus would call him out if Thomas denied how hard he was falling.
“Oh?” Thomas smiled and arched his brows. “Really?”
(“Shit , holy shit, what did we do? Oh God, what did we do?”)
(“Relax emo, he's teasing. We're fine!” Roman reassured.)
“When you said you made YouTube videos for a living, I didn’t think you had about 3 million subscribers!” Nico exclaimed, and Thomas could’ve sworn he saw his date's pupils dilate immensely.
(“Try not to flex, Thomas.” Janus smirked, clearly teasing Roman.)
(“Oh you know he won’t!” Patton nudged the snake side. Janus let out a hearty chuckle.)
“Well, I…” Thomas stammered, finding himself in a tizzy trying to figure out how to respond to that.
(“Virgil!” Roman scolded.)
(“Here, allow me.” Logan suggested, scooting closer to Roman.”)
“It didn’t really matter how big my subscription count was, I love each and everyone of my viewers and every single letter on the comments.” Thomas scratched the back of his head looking down on his burger.
(“Aww, Logan!” Patton and Roman cooed as Virgil and Janus smirked warmly. Logan denied the claims on his red meta-physical face.)
Nico smiled at Thomas, causing a flood of euphoria to come crashing down on him.
“Well, that's really sweet.” Nico said, placing his hand on Thomas’s.
He could hear the distinct screams of Patton and Roman in his head.
“Yeah, they mean a ton to me.” Thomas answered with a very sweet sigh.
There was silence between them for a while, but Thomas knew Nico had something to say, so they waited.
(“Shit, did we do something wrong? Fuck, is he mad?”)
(“Virgil, it's quite unlikely that he's mad at Thomas for not mentioning his subscriber count.”)
(“But what if he is?”)
(“Let's ask him shall we?” Janus said, scooting beside Roman.)
“What is it?” Thomas asked, biting his lower lip.
Nico looked him in the eyes, almost embarrassed. He mirrored Thomas' lip bite and intertwined his hand with Thomas’s own.
“Is this okay?” Nico asked.
Thomas gave up on trying to hide his smile hours ago. “Absolutely.” He echoed Janus’s words
(“This is… actually going great.” Janus remarked. Sarcasm and cynicism were absent from his statement.)
Nico exhaled. “Can I ask you something?”
(“Can I panic now?” Virgil asked, fingernails in between his lips.)
“Anything.” Roman made Thomas say.
Nico pursed his lips. “About Sanders Sides.”
Thomas could hear the simultaneous screams in his head, short-circuited by his date’s question.
“Oh jeez! Sorry, you don’t have to answer that if you don’t want to.” Nico stammered, redder than Roman's sashn fearing that he might have crossed a line.
“No, it’s fine!” Thomas said under Virgil’s influence.
(All the sides looked at their anxiety in awe.)
“The sides, well, they’re, sorta like, I guess,” Thomas stammered as Virgil looked to Roman and Janus for help.
“Sanders Sides is kind of my way of discussing my emotional issues and mental turmoil in a light, sort-of gentle way.”
(“Thanks, Logan.” Virgil relaxed a bit.)
“Are they…” Nico prompted, motioning to Thomas's head.
“Yeah, they are.” Thomas replied sheepishly.
“Cool…” Nico said breathlessly. “I love them.” Nico leaned in to pressed a kiss on Thomas’s lips.
Thomas let out a dignified squeak which Nico laughed at. He buried his face in his hands, hiding his embarrassment from his endeared datemate.
(“FIRST DATE AND WE ALREADY GOT A KISS!” Roman yelled. Virgil froze right where he sat. Patton got up and began running around the room.)
(“He said, the L-word…” Virgil muttered, causing everyone to stop. )
The screams in his head made Thomas flinch.
…
“Can I please sleep now?” Thomas groaned.
“Hun, his smile was so perfect, how did you get so lucky?” Remy sat at the foot of his bed legs crossed and day(night) dreaming.
Thomas buried his face in his pillow with a groan.
“And his voice! It was so dreamy! Boy, you can not let go of him!”
“Let me sleep! It's 2 am!”
Remy was right. Thomas just can’t let a boy like Nico go.

Like In Fairytales of Old for the fake title thing?
Virgil is a modern kind of witch. He doesn’t turn people into frogs, he doesn’t spend hours toiling over a bubbling cauldron, and anyone coming to him for a love spell gets not-so-politely shown the door. He also doesn’t much believe in fate, so for the most part, he ignores the fact that his grandma thinks it’s his destiny to “break the sleeping prince’s curse.” Whatever that’s supposed to mean.
But one night, he’s out in the woods, looking for elixir ingredients, and he stumbles on a clearing that reeks of old magic. In the middle of it, there’s a man sleeping, rooted to the ground by flowering vines that cover him. Some of them even seem to puncture his skin, and for a moment, Virgil is positive that the man is dead.
But his chest rises and falls. So Virgil approaches, and the moment he works up the nerve to actually touch the guy, the vines disappear, his wounds close, and his eyes snap open.
The man’s name is Logan. And evidently, he’s a prince from a different world. A different world that literally seems like it comes out of a fairy tale, because apparently that’s a thing.
Virgil takes him home, because what else is he supposed to do? He intends to set the man up with some kind of life and then send him on his way, but he finds himself getting attached way too quickly, and Logan doesn’t seem particularly inclined to leave him either. He’s so curious about how this world works, and maybe Virgil should find it annoying, but really, it’s just endearing, his thirst for knowledge.
They’re inching their way toward... something, when shit hits the fan; apparently, breaking the curse has set events in motion, and now, people from Logan’s world are crossing over into this one, looking for him, and not all of them are friendly.
Logan’s really smart, but he’s also one of the biggest idiots Virgil has ever met when it comes to his own safety. He’s going to have his work cut out for him if he wants to keep him alive. And maybe kiss him sometime. That’d be nice too.
thinking about Patton and how he said “I Am the Walrus” when asked to name a song title that represents how he feels, which is funny and all, but could also be a diversion because he doesn’t actually want to answer the question and say how he feels
Reminders!!
Can I offer you a calm Logan in this trying time?
The snake boi himself He’s always so fun to doodle
art block only lets me draw comfort characters rn sorry T^T
And then they have this training for a few years after they get found out about being a were-mer and you have assassin training.
Pssst, assassin mer Virgil who goes on land to kill the prince Logan but ends up accidentally ‘seducing’ him and falling in love -🦭
I love the idea of a mer assassin
I approve
I mean I do this so-
Patton: And he said yes! Can you believe that Virgil?
Virgil: of course I can Pat, you’re a great guy
Patton: Awww Virgil you’re so sweet
Virgil: eh debatable
Patton: Virgil no
Virgil: Did you figure out where you’re going to take him?
Patton: oh dear lordie I have not!
Meanwhile Virgils just bawling his eyes out cuz he’s tired and overthinking sending smiley faces and stuff.
Thomas’ ego takes a few too many blows. Janus helps.

___________________________
Roman typically liked color.
The purple and blues of his best friends, the green of his brother, the yellow of his… of Janus, his own glowing, vibrant red – Roman liked color.
At least, when it wasn’t splashed across his skin.
“I told you not to read the comments section,” Janus clucks, lifting Roman’s chin with one gloved hand and frowning at the marks on his neck, “and what do you do?”
“Checked for accolades from my dearest fans?” Roman flashes a grin, wincing when it pulls at the cut on his lip, breaking open once more.
“Let’s go with your story,” the snake says, dryly, snapping open a first aid kit. “Oh, and please stay standing. It’s so much more convenient to check up on you when you look like you’ll pass out at any second.”

Since Spoopy season is upon us I did a little crossover art of spoopy bois in the style of a spoopy show!
Deceit, remus and Virge from @thatsthat24’s sanders sides series in Over the Garden Wall’s mysterious Unknown!
Also imagine, if you will, Deceit singing Into the Unknown and Logan cutting in in the above line going “the loveliest... FALSEHOODS!!!!!! Of allll~”
Virgil: If you found out you only had one day left to live, what would you do with it?
Patton: Say goodbye and mend my relationships.
Janus: Something illegal.
Logan: Accept my fate.
Remus: I would message ten people saying that if they didn’t forward the message to 10 other people, I would die tomorrow.
Roman: What?
Janus: That’s fucking awesome. Can I change my answer?
