Remus walked into the kitchen where Patton was baking and hopped up onto the counter, waiting for the other to notice him.

After about ten minutes Patton finished what he was doing and finally turned around and saw Remus.

"Oh! Remus, kiddo, what's up?" he asked, wiping his flour covered hands off.

"Other than the ceiling, of course," he added jokingly.

"You're the heart," Remus began immediately. "Hypothetically, what do I do if I'm like- Really sad but so is Virgil and we both need comfort and no one else is available, what do I do?"

"Well uhm-" Patton started, looking beyond conflicted. "Of course you should help Virgil, but oh, you're important too, I- Uh- Well-"

Patton seemed to just freeze completely, not even seeming to be breathing.

Remus proceeded to poke him.

"Huh. Might've actually broken this one. Oops," he said, shrugging, before hopping back off the counter and walking away whistling.
