FALSEHOOD!

my first comic of the year, and of COURSE it’s analogical

as always: Get Dunked On, Virgil

(lil bonus under the cut)

Roman and Virgil are childhood "friends" that lost touch after high school

Roman's an author and Virgil's a singer/songwriter/musician

One day Roman's driving home when he hears one of Virgil's songs on the radio

He doesn't think much of it at first

The melody's pretty, so he leaves it on

Then he starts listening to the lyrics

It's this story about a prince and a knight that lose each other after a war

It's really sad to listen to both characters wish they hadn't lost the other

And the singer sounds so pained like it was an old wound he was recounting

And Roman just has this moment like

"oh shit this is about me"

So he calls the radio station asking who wrote the song and sure enough it's his old "childhood friend" Virgil Tempest

He goes on this long trip calling a ton of people and traveling the country trying to find him

Finally he tracks him down at a hotel

He knocks on the door and Virgil opens it, all mussed hair and tired eyes

"look, as much as I love my fans, it's the middle of the night and I'm tired"

Roman interrupts him with a quiet

"Virgil?"

Virgil looks up at him and Roman can see the recognition in his eyes

Analogical stans, I have starved you for too long

TStweet 28/11/20 :

Virgil: purple

Patton: pink!

Roman: yes

he starts talking sometimes and just. stops. and stands still for a second, before he zones back in and keeps going with whatever he was talking about

when he’s walking, he tends to pause and stare into the distance and the others are just like “what are you doing you’re in the middle of the walkway Roman please”

because of both of those things, he comes off as very absent-minded, but honestly his brain just goes faster than the rest of him so sometimes he has to let everything catch up

he has days where he feels restless and understimulated and he just kinda wanders around the house looking for something that can entertain him for a while

that ^^ results in him sometimes standing in the middle of the living room just frowning while he tries to think of something to do and the others are just like “why is roman glaring at the tv”

either he jumps into things immediately (when he doesn’t necessarily have everything he needs to complete them) or is dead set on gathering all the materials for a project before he even THINKS about starting

both of those scenarios mean there’s a lot of half-finished projects and random materials scattered around his room at all times

cleaning fluctuates between being the bane of his existence or the only thing that makes him feel alive. there is no in between

sometimes he just. smushes words together to describe the thing he’s thinking of just right

(it drove Logan insane until he realized that’s basically what people have been doing since language was invented)

stimulation!! is vital!!! especially like sharp or crisp things, crunchy foods and clicky objects and percussion and such. very important

(although I also think he’d love like orchestral crescendos, that kind of mounting musical moment yknow)

he has moments where he is so overwhelmingly emotional that he feels like he’s gonna implode if he doesn’t express it (it’s usually him seeing something beautiful and getting really excited about it)

on that note he is so enthusiastic which is CANON babey!!!
