The Little Duke
Summary: "Love this:-)♥️ Can I please request secret regressor Remus (0-3) where no one is aware that he does it? Please and thanks 😊" Request by gamblerezra (on AO3), hope I did your request justice! And sorry it took me so long to get it out ^^'
Warnings: Mentions of accidents/bedwetting, auditorial hallucinations, a meltdown scene, brief mention of blood (very, very brief, not graphic at all), skin injury/rash
A/N: …So remember how I said I'd try to be more consistent with my writing? Well, as it turns out, writer's block and executive dysfunction disagreed! I am still updating this tho, so yeah! I promise you guys, I really am trying! Time just goes by so darn fast! But I'm always open for requests!
Remus woke up small and wet. It wasn't unusual, it had been happening for a while now. Usually he just went back to sleep, and dealt with it later, when he was bigger again. He didn't know what it was or why it was happening, but he knew he couldn't go to the others. They'd think he's gross. They wouldn't like it. They wouldn't like him. They'd think he was doing it to annoy or disturb them. But he wasn't! He wasn't doing it on purpose, he didn't even know what it was!
Remus sat up, he didn't want to sleep anymore. But he had to. He was wet, and he couldn't do anything about it like this. But Remus wasn't sleepy! He huffed to himself, not knowing what to do. Why was he like this? He tried to reach out to Thomas, to have him do something, anything that could help. But nothing happened. He tried again, still nothing. He huffed, laying back down. Guess there was no other choice.
Thomas woke up to an unusual feeling. He shifted lightly, before freezing like a deer in headlights. He sat up, heart beating in his chest like a mini drum. He peeled back the covers, his face flushing bright red once they were fully off of him. No. No, he hadn't. There was no way, he couldn't have! He's an adult goddamnit, this just doesn't happen!
"Care to explain why I'm up at—" Virgil grumbled, words drying on his tongue as he processed what was going on.
"I—" Thomas started, feeling so embarrassed that tears were threatening to form in his eyes.
"You wet the bed??" Roman rose up. Thomas could only nod meekly, rapidly trying to blink away the stubborn tears in his eyes.
"I didn't mean to!" he squeaked.
"Aw, kiddo, it's okay! Accidents happen, even to adults! Let's get this cleaned up, okay?" Patton rose up as well. Thomas nodded, taking a few deep breaths and wiping his eyes.
"You— You're right. Sorry," he breathed out.
"Nothing to apologise for hun," Patton soothed.
"Yeah. Sorry. I mean— Y'know."
Right as Thomas got out of bed, it was Logan's turn to rise up.
"First step; strip the bed," he reminded.
"I know, Logan, thank you," Thomas smiled weakly.
"After you're done with that, you're taking a bubble bath," Janus appeared to give his two cents.
"Sure, Jan. Thanks," Thomas attempted to smile again. As he went on about stripping his bed, the Sides all sunk down one by one. No one noticed that one of them hadn't popped up at all.
Back in the Mind Palace, Remus had woken up, only to discover that he was still small. He didn't understand, he was supposed to be back to his big self by now! And he really, really didn't want to sleep anymore! He huffed, deciding to get out of bed. Maybe he could find something to do while he waited? He could just stay in his room all day, it's not like the others would notice anyway. His bed would have to wait, but Remus didn't mind too much, he'd just clean it before going to sleep. Maybe.
Remus looked around his room, trying to find something to do. He wanted to colour! Or draw! But all the art supplies were in Roman's room. Hm. Remus flicked his wrist, attempting to summon himself some crayons and a colouring book, but nothing happened. Remus growled quietly, scratching at his inner thighs. Why were they burning and scratchy? And now Remus' tummy growled, too! There was no way he could sneak in the kitchen without getting caught. They'd yell at him. Usually, he didn't mind, but today, he really didn't want to be yelled at. He just wanted... Well, he didn't even know what he wanted. Remus' tummy felt rotten, and not in the way he liked, either!
"They don't like you," a voice said.
"I know," Remus replied. This wasn't the first time he heard voices, it happened a lot. Usually it didn't bother him, but today was different.
"They'd be better off without you."
"You sound like the Emo," Remus shot back. The voice chuckled coldly.
"You really don't get it, do you?"
"Go 'way."
"You want them. You want them to want you. But they won't. They never will, will they?" the voice taunted.
"Go 'way!" Remus stomped his foot for good measure. He hated the way his bottom lip wobbled, and how his vision blurred as salty tears welled in his eyes. He hated feeling weak.
"They left you. They're not coming back. They have a new family now. Without you."
"No!"
"They don't need you anymore. *He* doesn't need you anymore. He hates you," the voice kept going, mercilessly jabbing at Remus' sensitive spots. Remus saw two strips of colour take form. Yellow and purple. Janus and Virgil. They stared down at the duke, disgust shining in their eyes. They wouldn't speak, only staring menacingly.
"Stop!" Remus closed his eyes and covered his ears, firmly pressing his hands on them in a desperate attempt to silence the voice. He fell on his knees, curling up to be as small as possible.
In the meanwhile, Thomas was trying to work on songwriting, but something kept gnawing at him. He couldn't stop thinking about what had happened. It bothered him. He had gone to the bathroom before going to sleep, like he always did. He hadn't drunk too much water, or anything else for that matter, and his dream wasn't particularly scary. So why had he wet the bed? What was wrong with him?
"You're not making any progress, Thomas," Logan pointed out after rising up.
"I… I know. Sorry. Just…" Thomas trailed off.
"Just?"
"Thinking."
"About what?"
"Just… Ah, you know, nevermind. It doesn't matter," Thomas shook his head a bit.
"If it bothers you, it does matter," Logan stated.
"Is there something wrong with me?" Thomas bit his lip. He looked up from his notebook, but avoided Logan's eyes.
"Why would you think that?"
"I mean…" Thomas didn't finish his sentence. He bit his lip, his gaze wandering uncertainly.
"I just…" his voice wavered, and he swallowed thickly as he felt a lump growing in his throat. He rapidly blinked his eyes, not wanting Logan to see him cry. He didn't even know why his tear ducts were threatening to betray him, there was no reason to cry. It was… illogical. Thomas let out a shaky sigh, hiding his face in his hands.
"Hey…" Logan sat across his host, unsure what to do.
In the Mind Palace, Remus was getting closer and closer to meltdown territory. It was getting harder to breathe, the voice was getting louder, and the burning and itching of his tighs was getting to be unbearable. He hated this. He hated this, he hated this, he hated this! Remus let out a scream, fiercely ripping his pants off before aggressively scratching at his inner thighs. Angry tears burned in his eyes as he reached for the first object he could reach, before throwing it at the general direction of the taunting voice.
"SHUT UP!" Remus shrieked, clawing at his ears for a moment before throwing himself on the ground, shrieking incoherently as his thighs demanded to be scratched again. There was a knock at Remus' door, causing his hands to fly from his thighs right back to his ears as the sound pounded at his eardrums.
"NO!" he screamed, throwing whatever object he could get his hands on toward the door.
"Ow!" Patton yelped, getting hit in the face with an empty deodorant container. He rubbed at the tip of his nose, processing what was happening. He flinched as he realised the state the still shrieking little duke was in.
"Hey…" he entered the room, and sat on the floor, making sure to give Remus some space. He reached out to the red-faced boy, carefully stroking his hand once. When Remus didn't protest, Patton continued, slowly but effectively getting the toddler to calm down.
"There ya go, Dad's here buddy, Dad's gotcha…" he coo'd gently. By now Remus had completely stopped screaming, but silent tears were still running down his face, his anger melting down to sadness. He reached his little hands out, choking back sobs, a quiet whine escaping his throat.
"Aww, you want Dad to pick you up?" Remus didn't answer verbally, instead just clenching his fists in the 'grabby hands' motion. Patton took the cue, and gently picked the boy up. Remus winced as his thighs pressed against the fabric of Patton's clothes. He had scratched them so vigorously that they were now completely raw, dried up blood covering his fingernails.
"You poor thing! Dad thinks you need a bath, hun. And then, once you're all squeaky clean, we'll put some lotion on your thighs so the hurt will go away. That sound good?" Patton murmured softly upon inspecting Remus' thighs closer. The boy nodded, rubbing his eyes, exhausted from his meltdown.
"What got you so itchy in the first place?" the fatherly Side asked. Remus just shrugged, not quite sure himself. Patton looked around, only now noticing the pants on the floor.
"…Oh," he understood now, the lingering smell in the room making more sense. Truthfully, he had not paid much attention to it at first. It was Remus' room, it was subject to strange smells, and generally, it was better to not ask questions. By now the other Sides had learned to tune it out. Now, however, was not the time to dwell on that.
"Well," Patton said, "let's get you cleaned up!"
Some time later, as Patton had finally gotten the freshly-bathed toddler in a pull-up and t-shirt, and the washing machine running, he felt the ever-so-familiar tug of someone, likely Thomas, summoning him. So, Remus on his hip, he sank down.
"Oh! Logan! Did you need me for something?" Patton asked, surprised to see that it hadn't been Thomas who summoned him.
"I…" Logan started, his words drying on his tongue as he processed the fact that Patton was holding what appeared to be a toddler.
"Is that… Is that Remus?"
"Yup!"
"…Why is he a toddler?"
"No clue! So what's up?" Patton asked.
"Right, well, Thomas is experiencing a sort of… emotional crisis, and that's not exactly my area of expertise. I figured you would be able to help," Logan explained, gesturing to the host, still hunched over the desk, hiding behind his hands.
"Huh, okay," Patton frowned a little before walking to Thomas.
"Hey, buddy…" he started, gently laying a hand on his host's back. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, nothing, just…" Thomas trailed off, taking a breath and rubbing his face before turning to look at Patton. His eyes were a little shiny, and he seemed exhausted. His brows furrowed in confusion once his brain registered the toddler Patton was holding.
"Remus," Patton explained.
"…Huh?"
"I don't know either, I just found him like this."
…How small is he?" Logan asked, furrowing his brows as well as he thought.
"Can't be older than two, I don't think. Poor guy had wet the bed, so we had a bit of a bath, and got some lotion on that nasty rash," Patton explained, gently moving Remus' legs a little so the other two could see how red and raw they were.
"Is… Is that why I…" Thomas trailed off, too embarrassed to say it outloud.
"Of course!" Logan suddenly explained, smacking his forehead as the realisation dawned on him.
"Remus' regression must've had a side effect in affecting you, Thomas!"
"A *Side* effect? Eh?" Patton grinned.
"…Yes? I'm not sure what you're implying here, Patton."
"It's- It's a pun, just ignore it," Thomas shook his head a bit.
"…Anyway, we can't leave a two-year-old on his own. I trust you'd be willing to care for him until we figure out a way to get him back to his adult self, Patton?" Logan said, raising his eyebrow slightly.
"Oh! Uh… Of course!" Patton tried his best to conceal his surprise, quickly regaining his composure and giving Logan a grin. Taking care of Remus couldn't be *that* hard!
Right?

nails and polish
Cg-patton
Agere-janus
Warning-nail biting
Janus didn't like his fingernails. There were brittle and would spilt or flake. They never stayed nice or at an even length because they kept catching on things and getting little rough edges that he hated the feel of. He wore gloves to prevent any damage to them. Mostly from himself as he got in the habit of biting and chewing on his nails when they got uneven in the hopes of fixing them without having to hunt down a nail file or clippers.
The issues with the gloves was they made using things like touch screens, tiny buttons and small toys frustrating. Tear inducing on a bad day and Janus was already having a bad day.
That was why he was in soft comfy clothing sitting with Patton on the floor surrounded by toys. Patton had to reassure Janus that he didn't mind taking care of him for awhile. "You've been stressed a lot lately, You need some relaxing time." Patton said as he clicked Lego pieces together. Janus did agree with that and so he focused on working on his Lego house he was making.
He had removed his gloves so he could pick up the pieces better. He was struggling a little bit but it was still fun.
Until one of his nails caught slightly on a piece. The previously smooth edge now had a small dent in it. He tried to ignore it before glancing over to see Patton was too busy to notice.
Maybe if he was quick. He brought his hand up to his mouth and started chewing on the rough edge.
"Janus." Patton said causing him to jump before tearing up from being startled. Patton was quick to pull him into a hug. "oh I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean to scare you. You just can't chew on your nails." Patton said gently taking Janus' hand away from his mouth.
"icky!" Janus said shaking his hands a bit, squirming as Patton grabbed a wipe to clean Janus' hand before grabbing the yellow gloves. "No! nononono! No oves!"
"You can't bite your nails slitter." Patton said waiting for Janus to calm before he put the gloves on.
"I be good! Prom-est!" Janus said with wide teary eyes. Patton couldn't say no to that.
"What if we found something else to cover your nails?" Patton asked.
"No oves?" Janus sniffled. Patton kissed Janus' forehead as he brushed away his tears.
"We'll try baby." He said relieved that Janus relaxed. He gave Janus his teether ring that look like a curled up snake. Something to bite while Patton filed smooth his nails.
Patton wished that Roman was here, he would be able to figure out how to cover Janus' nails without gloves. Patton looked around his room for something that might work and stopped when he noticed the small box of nail polishes. He hesitated, he didn't want Janus eating nail polish if it didn't work. Then again they could just try something else if it didn't work.
"You want painted nails Hisser?" Patton asked grabbing the box and opening it showing off a small pastel rainbow.
Janus' face lit up and he happily wiggled, "pink please!" he said pointing to the light pink. That wasn't the color Patton expected, mostly because the yellow was one of Janus' favorite shades.
Still he smiled and gently took Janus' hand so he could paint his nails. "Can't bite polish." Janus stated around the teether.
"That's right! Very smart!" Patton praised.
"You thought of it!" Janus said poking Patton with his free hand.
Patton laughed. "I did! We are both pretty smart then."
Janus made a happy squeak noise. He chewed harder on his teether as he watched his nail get covered in the soft pink color. He looked down at the half built legos. "I'm done playing."
"That's ok, you can't play with wet nails. Maybe we should watch something while they dry?" Patton suggested.
Janus nodded happy. Patton finished painting his nails and Janus watched as he cleaned up. "Can't help. Wet nails." Janus said giggling.
"Sassy snake." Patton said ruffling Janus' hair.
Janus looked at his painted nails. As soon as they were dry he felt the edges, coated in the polish they were smooth. Safe. He would need to paint his nails more.

Day 7: Clowns
Roman replayed the conversation he had accidentally overhead in his mind, his regressed brain trYing to process it as best that he could.
“He’s such a clown.” Janus had said to Remus as soon as Patton left the room. Roman had started to follow after his Dad, but stopped just outside of the threshold when he heard Janus speak. Immediately he was on the defensive. His Dad was notta a Clown! He was silly sometimes, maybe even goofy-silly a lotta times. And he knew some magic tricks…
“Yeah, but he’s your clown.” Virgil had responded back.
“That he is. But don’t tell him that.” Janus said with a chuckle. Roman frowned. Was his Dad really a clown? And did he perform only for Janus?
Roman sat on the floor as he pondered the conundrum. A whole lot of minutes had passed since he’d started thinking about it, probably even more than 8, and that was so many minutes! And he still didn’t know! Was his Dad a clown?
Clowns were funny, and his Dad was funny. But clowns also wore makeup, and Patton didn’t do that very much. But they juggled sometimes! And Dad kinda knew how to juggle. And he knew how to fit a lotta stuff in a tiny car. Maybe Dad was a clown…?
But how could he prove it?! And how could he do it without Janus finding out? He didn’t think it was very fair that Janus got to keep Patton’s clownery all to himself. He wanted to see his Dad juggle and dance and OH! And his Dad’s shoes are MASSIVE. Of course his Dad was a clown! It all made sense now!
He was just missing one thing…
A honk!
All clowns honked. It was clown law, Roman was fairly certain. If he pinched his Dad’s nose, it would honk really loudly, and surely that would be such convicting evidence his Dad would have to admit it right on the spot! It was the perfect plan!
Roman stood up and hurried off towards the stairs, eager to know once and for all if his Dad was a clown! It was the question of the year! No, the decade! No!! the century! He’d wanted to know since forever and now he was for sure going to find out!
Roman found Patton standing outside his room chatting with Logan. Well, that was no good. If Logan heard Patton honk, he would definitely go tell everyone! Probably claim it was a science-tific discovery. Roman would have to be super clever to figure this one out.
“Dad!” Roman yelled, gaining the two’s attention. Patton smiled brightly at Roman, and that was only making him feel more and more confident that his Dad was a secret clown.
“What’s up, kiddo?” Patton asked. Roman bounced over, standing right behind Patton and setting his chin on his shoulder.
“Lolo, I saw Remus playing with one of your ruby cubes down stairs.” Roman feigned tattling. He knew the ruse wouldn’t last long, but he just needed Patton to himself long enough so he could test his honking abilities.
“My rubix cubes? That’s quite alright. I know he enjoys stimming, and so long as he’s taking care of them properly I don’t min--”
“He gots it in his mouth! He’s trying to solve it with his tongue, like dis!” Roman stuck his tongue and wiggled it a bit, but Logan immediately turned his gaze away.
“The visual presentation was unnecessary, Roman. But thank you for informing me. I’ll have to go talk to him. If he’s going to put something in his mouth, he needs to sanitize it first. Excuse me.”
Logan quickly left. Patton let him go with a wave, but turned slightly, maneuvering Roman off his shoulder and facing him.
“Is that all you wanted? My big brave prince protecting Logan’s possessions?” Patton teased, poling Roman in the tummy. He giggled and shook his head, before leaning in close towards Patton, lowering his voice.
“Do you have a secret, Dad? One that only Janus knows?” Roman asked. Maybe his Dad would just tell him. After all, Roman was an amazing secret keeper, the bestest in the world! And this was his DAD. Dads told their kiddos everything! Patton’s face turned a bit red.
“W-what are you talking about, buddy?” He asked. Roman rolled his eyes, wasn’t it obvious?
“You know! The secret! The thing you only do for Janus?”
Patton’s whole face went red and he looked away. Roman frowned. Why wouldn’t his Dad tell him? It wasn’t a big deal! He loved clowns! And he loved his Daddy!
“Honey, I don’t think I’m fully understanding what you’re talking about.” His Dad continued to deny it. Well, fine! Roman would just have to reveal it, and then he’d know and then his dad could show him all his jokes and tricks and stinky Janus wouldn’t get them all to himself anymore!
“This!” Roman declared, before reaching forward and pressing his finger down on Patton’s nose.
The two stood in silence, staring at each other.
Silence…
“Why didn’t it work?” Roman asked, beginning to tap Patton’s nose repeatedly.
“Roman, what in the world--”
Patton was interrupted by footsteps climbing up the stairs. Roman turned around and saw Logan and Janus standing behind him. Logan had his arms crossed. Uh oh…
“Would you care to repeat to Janus what you told me, Roman?” Logan asked. Roman felt his face burn with shame and he shook his head no, smartly not saying a word.
“Remus was taking a nap, no Rubix cubes to be found. Pray tell, little one, why did you lie?” Janus asked in his mean old caregiver voice that wasn’t actually mean but made Roman feel smaller and guilty. Tears pricked his eyes.
“I just wanna’d know wha’ Daddy does for you.” Roman whimpered. Janus’s eyebrow quirked up.
“What do you mean?” He asked. Roman opened his mouth to answer, but Patton was quick to intervene.
“I don’t know if that should be said out loud.” His Daddy said, his voice cracking a bit. Janus and Logan looked really confused, and now Roman felt very very very guilty.
“I love you Dada,” Roman wept, clinging to his Daddy tightly. “Even if you’re a clown. M’sorry! M’sorry I lied m’sorry!” Roman cried and cried. He didn’t want his Daddy to be ashamed of being a clown, he didn’t want everyone to be mad at him for telling a fib because he wasn’t trying to be mean he just wanted to know!
“What?” Everyone else said at the exact same time. Patton wrapped his arms around Roman and hugged him close.
“I know. I know it. I hearded Jana call you his clown. M’sorry!” Roman cried, burying his face in Patton’s neck. The room was quiet for a moment, before he felt his Daddy’s chest rumble with laughter.
“What?” He barked out with a laugh. Roman peeked out of his Daddy’s neck and looked over at Janus, his face burning.
“It was…In context it…I…” Janus was at a loss for words, which was pretty rare. Roman sniffled and looked back at Logan.
“Sorry for lyin’. Wanted t’see if Daddy would honk.” Roman explained, which elicited more laughter from Patton, and Roman caught Logan smile slightly. He wasn’t sure what he was saying that had everyone laughing so much…
“I know you’re sorry. Thank you for apologizing, and I forgive you.” Logan said, and Roman felt so so so much better. He would never ever ever lie again, not even to find secret clowns.

more caregiver remus content pls
i don’t typically view patton as a regressor but if remus is his caregiver im all for it. thats a good dynamic
kiddo patton being afraid there’s a monster in his closet or under the bed and remus being like “what?? a scary monster?? thats MY job!!” and going to “fight the monster” for trying to be scarier than him. idk if im explaining the vision correctly but im soft over it
cg remus making kiddo patton pancakes in different shapes like a skull, a bat, a slime monster which was definitely not a failed attempt at a werewolf that he messed up and adapted on the fly. patton is a big fan of the pancakes so long as they’re not spider shaped. thats his only rule
THESE TWO WOULD BE GREAT. PLS

Huzzah, Sanders Sides agere!
I see both Patton and Roman as flips, and ship them heavily, so here's a drabble of headcanons! 🌟
Tumblr media
cg!Patton and small!Roman
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[art]
roman is a flip, and regresses to either 2-4 or 7-9 depending on the day!
lots and lots of outdoor play and adventures! but also a lot of quiet time indoors in patton's room whenever roman is upset.
patton provides roman with limitless amounts of crayons, chalk, paint, and anything his heart desires to create with. roman is EXTRA creative when he's tiny, tapping into that childlike whimsy again.
roman goes up to patton wanting fairy-tales be read to him, as the prince he demands it! (even though patton would read them to him no matter what.) roman's favorite is the storybook version of disney's beauty and the beast.
roman loves to watch every disney animated movie in huge marathons, and patton makes them popcorn and snacks for sometimes weekend-long regression and film binging sessions.
roman and patton both wear their onsies when they spend time regressing!
roman can sometimes get angry or really sad, and he throws big loud tantrums that tire him out really badly. patton waits them out patiently, then swoops him up to take to bed for snuggles and comforting words. other caregivers might call that behavior bratty, but patton understands it too well to ever be mad at roman, especially when he's small.
patton loves to play toys with roman, whether it's plushies or paper dolls or action figures, he really enjoys indulging roman's storytelling drive!
Tumblr media
cg!Roman and small!Patton
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[art]
patton is a flip, and both an age regressor and a pet regressor! he regresses to around 6-8, and he's a frog regressor.
pat is a hyper, and i mean HYPER kiddo, and it's even worse when he's in froggie mode.
roman loves to set up 'dates of fun' where he plans a whole list of activities to keep patton busy the whole day. he includes arts and crafts enough to fill up hours at a time, movies, books to be read to him, and much more. patton's energy is always wiped out by the end!
patton loves the winnie the pooh books when he's small, they're immensely comforting to him.
patton is VERY cuddly and affectionate during regression, and roman is definitely not complaining about the extra love!
patton mostly wears even comfier clothes than usual, like big sweaters over shorts or his onesie! roman does like to draw him into games of dress-up in the imagination, though, dressing patton in very nice princely clothing for them to play games in.
patton can occasionally involuntarily regress as well, and those are much less happy times. he gets very, very sad and gloomy, tending to stay in bed the whole day curled around his blankets with his pacifier.
roman tries to give him space when he needs it, but the moment patton asks for comfort, roman jumps to action to brighten his day in any way he can manage. patton may be very nostalgic, but how much he loves and is loved by roman helps keep him grounded during the bad times.
roman will take patton to the imagination and imagine up a biiiig pond or pool for him to play in in his smaller lilypadton form! lots of things to hop on and dive through.
lilypadton will try to hit roman in the face with his tongue, 100% of the time, roman better keep his reflexes good.
roman gives in to little patton's puppy eyes so easily that he regularly accidentally lets him eat himself sick on sweets and baked goods. "mom i phrew up" moments directed at logan galore between the two of them.

Yes! I feel like all of them have regressed at some point and have the others take care of them. Remus and Patton would be good caregivers for little Roman in my opinion.

Birthday Boy
Summary: It's a certain little boy's birthday! Because we all need more Agere!C!Thomas in our lives, don't we? Plus I wanted to write something for Thomas' birthday :3
Warnings: None!
A/N: Just a little something I came up with for Thomas' birthday! Even though it's technically already the 25th over here in Finland, haha
"Biwthday, biwthday, biwthday! Biwthday, biwthday, biwthday!" The very little Thomas chanted, running around the living room in his pyjamas and flapping his hands. It was six in the morning, and Thomas had woken up the Sides just moments prior. Despite adult Thomas not being a morning person, little Thomas was already more than awake, stopping his running just to excitedly jump in place. Patton was in the kitchen making breakfast, and Roman and Remus were watching the little one in the living room. Logan was helping Patton, and Janus and Virgil were situated on the couch, eagerly waiting for coffee, trying to stay awake for the birthday boy.
"Excited?" Roman affectionately ruffled Thomas' hair, the boy clinging to his sleeve.
"Uh-huh!" Thomas nodded, pressing himself against the prince before wrapping his arms around him, tightly gripping to his shirt. He hid his face in the crook of Roman's neck, just staying in the other's embrace for a moment.
"Aw, is it hug time?" Roman smiled, giving Thomas a gentle kiss on the top of his head.
"Mmm. Cuz I wuv you," Thomas smiled, squeezing the other one slightly tighter. Roman slightly teared up at Thomas' adorableness, having to stifle a squeak.
"I love you too, pipsqueak," the prince returned the squeeze, subtly wiping his eyes.
"Bleh! Gross!" Remus stuck his tongue out, pretending to gag. Thomas and Roman let go of each other, turning to look at the green twin.
"You're ruining the moment," Roman groaned.
"Yeah, duh. That's the point," Remus grinned.
"Maybe you're just jealous that I got a hug and you didn't," the red twin shot back. Both twins knew that the other wasn't serious, but Thomas didn't seem to quite understand. He tugged at the hem of Roman's shirt.
"Mus want hug too?" he asked worriedly.
"Yeah, I think he does," Roman nodded. Before Remus had a chance to react, Thomas ran to him and gave him a tight hug too.
"Is okay, wuv Mus too," the little boy assured, clumsily patting Remus' back.
"Mus famiwy too," Thomas continued. Remus could've sworn his heart was being squished to mush, as he finally realised to return the hug.
"Okay, you little booger, you got me, I love you too," he said, ruffling the little's hair.
"I'm not a boogew!" Thomas giggled, as the two let go of each other. Thomas took off, not wanting to leave Janus and Virgil out. Roman gave Remus a smug look.
"You shut up," Remus gave his twin a light push.
"Hey, I didn't even say anything!" Roman pretended to be offended.
"Breakfast is ready!" Patton hollered from the kitchen.
After everyone had finished their pancakes and Janus and Virgil had gotten themselves caffeinated, it was finally time for Thomas to open his presents. The boy could barely contain himself, vibrating in excitement. He was sitting on the couch, having gotten himself dressed, waiting for the others to bring out the gifts. He was wearing his Steven Universe -shirt, khaki shorts, and kitty paw socks. Thomas couldn't stay still at all, constantly kicking his feet, flapping his hands or wiggling on his bum. After waiting what felt like forever, the others finally made their reappearance.
"Happy birthday, Thomas!" they all exclaimed in unison. The boy jumped off the couch, frantically flapping his hands, running and jumping around the Sides. He went to hug Patton, who set the cake he was carrying down on the coffee table before returning the gesture.
"Happy birthday, lovebug!" the paternal side smiled, planting kisses all over Thomas' face. The latter giggled, squirming lightly.
"Wuv you!" he squealed. Patton ruffled the boy's hair before he took off, situating himself back on the couch. He rocked side-to-side as the others set down all the presents.
"I love you too, honey bear! Are you ready to blow out your candles?" Patton asked. Thomas nodded eagerly, and the others began singing as the little boy took a big breath, and blew out his candles. He closed his eyes and made a wish as everyone clapped. Virgil was the first one to hand Thomas a gift to unwrap. It was wrapped in purple giftwrap, and it had black string around it. The little began shredding the wrapping paper, soon revealing a box that, once opened, revealed a sensory cube and a Cheer Bear plushie.
"Thank you!" Thomas squeaked, picking up the plushie and hugging it tight to his chest before getting up and running to Virgil.
"Wuv you!" he smiled, wrapping his arms around Virgil. The emo returned the affection, gently cradling Thomas' head for a bit.
"You're welcome, kiddo. Love you too," Virgil smiled, ruffling Thomas' hair.
Soon enough, Thomas had opened all of his presents, and was now running around, wearing his new cape and crown, and swinging his new toy sword and shield about. He'd also gotten a 120 box of crayons and five colouring books, three chewie necklaces, shaped like a yellow star, a red Lego brick and a purple light saber, a footie onesie, a new Lego set, a few new story books and a red pacifier with a yellow star sticker on the button and a matching sippy cup. Thomas was more than happy with these gifts, and occasionally thanked one of the others amidst their game. Thomas and Roman were princes, and Remus and Janus were the bad guys.
"Gonna get you!" Thomas squealed, running toward Janus. The yellow Side gasped, pretending to run away, but letting the little boy collide into him.
"Wuv you!" Thomas gave Janus a tight squeeze. The older one returned the gesture, gently rubbing the little one's back.
"Love you too, tiny tot," Janus ruffled Thomas' hair affectionately.
The rest of the day went by, Thomas playing with his new gifts and with the others. They had tacos for dinner, and then watched Aladdin, Thomas' favourite Disney movie. By the movie's end, the boy was yawning and rubbing his eyes, and Logan proposed it was bath time. They got through it with ease, and soon enough Thomas was wearing his new onesie and new pacifier in his mouth, hugging Cheer Bear tightly against his chest, waiting for Logan to come tuck him in. Before long, Logan entered the bedroom with Thomas' new sippy cup, and one of the new books, Winnie the Pooh, that Thomas had picked to be his bedtime story. Logan set the sippy cup on the night stand, and tucked the little boy in before sitting down next to him.
"Did you have a good birthday?" Logan asked. Thomas nodded, making grabby hands toward the older one. Logan obliged, wrapping his arms around Thomas, and gently patting his back.
"Wuv you," Thomas mumbled tiredly around his pacifier, tightening his grip slightly.
"I love you too, starlight," Logan assured, ruffling Thomas' hair once they let go of each other. The logical one opened the book, and made sure Thomas was comfortable before starting to read. Thomas was exhausted enough that it didn't take long for him to fall asleep. Logan stopped reading, and carefully got up. He tugged Thomas in one more time, before planting a gentle kiss on the little boy's forehead.
"Sleep well, stardust," he smiled.

The difference between nightmares and bad dreams.
 Agere Logan, cg Virgil, Cg Patton.
They weren't nightmares. He didn't wake up crying or shaking like the others did when they had nightmares. He didn't have any confusion about what was happening. He knew he had been asleep, his dreams were unpleasant and then he woke up.
There was no need for him to go find someone to help him calm the nervousness. Logan didn't wake up in a cold sweat like Virgil did, he didn't scream out like Roman did, he didn't shake like Patton. He wasn't confused at what was dream or not like Janus would be and he didn't need to have someone tell him he was fine!
He knew he was fine. He had unpleasant dreams all the time. If he got unnerved by the dark he turned his light on and got to work. He didn't go back to sleep, not when he knew he was just going to have more unpleasant dreams. What was the point of sleep if it stressed him out more than helped? Besides, he wasn't real he didn't need sleep.
Logan knew he was lying to himself but he couldn't tell what parts were the lies. Maybe he wasn't lying so much as he was wrong. That was a thought that made going and asking someone for help not an option. He was stubborn and he didn't need help.
He might want it though. He had already been awake for four hours, barely sleeping for two before his dreams had forced him out of bed and to his desk. He wasn't working tonight. At least he had started off working but ended up playing with his pens as he regressed. He knew there was a moment where he realized he was regressed but since he didn't regress for a bad reason he was fine to be by himself.
That made sense. He should only need someone to watch him when he needed help the most. It was too early to watch anyone else up. He couldn’t make sense of the clock so he was just listening for someone else to start moving around outside. Then it would be awake time- morning and he could go hang out.
Just hang out, he didn't need watching!
He heard a door open quietly then close. Footsteps on the stairs. It sounded like Patton! Patton go up kinda early sometimes so maybe it was morning now. Logan opened his door slowly to make sure he didn't wake anybody else and tiptoed down the hall to the stairs.
Virgil was sitting on the couch with his weighted blanket wrapped around him looking upset, Patton was in the kitchen making something. Probably hot chocolate or tea since Virgil must have had a nightmare. He looked like he did. Logan almost jumped when Virgil looked at him and jumped.
"Jeez Lo don't sneak around in the dark." Virgil muttered as Logan walked over to the couch and sat down sideways so he could face Virgil.
Logan sat with his legs crossed, "Sorry. Are you ok?"
"Yeah, just...fucking nightmares am I right?" Virgil said with a shaky laugh. Logan glanced towards the kitchen when Virgil cursed but Patton didn't hear them so it was alright. He wasn't going to get Virgil in trouble for swearing.
"I don't get nightmares." Logan said flatly.
"I bet you don't have dreams at all." Virgil said. "You never talk about any of them."
Logan didn't want to argue. He wished Virgil was right, then he could sleep all night and he wouldn't have to spend so many hours alone in the nighttime before other people woke up.
"Logan!" Patton yelped as he stepped in the room with two mugs of tea from the smell, peppermint. Logan liked peppermint tea. He didn't have a nightmare so he didn't need any, he firmly reminded himself. Beside its for Virgil and Patton who have had a rough night. "What are you doing awake?"
Logan shrugged as he watched Virgil take the mug of tea from Patton and wrapping both hands around it. Most likely using the warmth from the mug to ground himself. Virgil tended to have the most lingering discomfort from nightmares. "You have a nightmare?" Patton asked offering Logan his mug of tea, Logan politely declined it.
"He doesn't get nightmares." Virgil said smiling a little bit. A wistful tone in his voice.
"A bad dream then?" Patton asked looking at Logan concerned. Logan could tell by the way Patton's tone had shifted just slightly that he knew that Logan was little.
"I'm fine." Logan said looking down to pick at a loose thread on the end of his pants.
"Lo did you have a bad dream?" Virgil asked.
"Yes." Logan admitted.
"I'll go make you a cup of tea." Patton said getting up.
"You don't have to. It was just a bad dream I'm fine!" Logan said a bit grumpy. Maybe a tiny teeny bit happy that they seemed to care even when it was just a bad dream.
"Why didn't you say anything?" Virgil asked, his tone also shifted now. Great they were trying to take care of him because he was little not Virgil who needed help!
"Because it's just a bad dream! it's not like a nightmare." Logan huffed grabbing a spare blanket and wrapping it around his shoulders. He had been an older kid but now he was getting younger and that wasn't fair! He shouldn't be upset just answering questions!
"Bad dreams are still upsetting." Patton said softly.
"Do you get bad dreams often?" Virgil asked as Logan refused to look up at either of them.
"Maybe." Logan muttered.
"You are allowed to ask for help ducky." Patton said firmly pushing his untouched mug of tea into Logan's hands. Patton stood to go make himself another cup and gave Virgil a glance that Logan couldn't read.
"What makes a bad dream not a nightmare?" Virgil asked. Logan sipped at the peppermint tea and hummed before answering.
"It's not so bad that you have to have help." Logan said.
"So bad dreams aren't scary?" Virgil asked scooting closer to Logan and letting him curl up against him.
"They can be! My dreams can be really scary." Logan said hugging the warm mug to his chest, the warmth reminding him that he didn't need to be afraid of the shadows.
"Then why aren't they nightmares?" Virgil asked.
"I don't wake up screaming, or confused, or crying." Logan listed off. "So it can't be a nightmare!"
"If someone else had one of your bad dreams do you think they would call it a nightmare?" Virgil asking making Logan think.
"I think so." Logan said, a bit grumpy to admit that he might have nightmares after he said he didn't.
"Well nightmares or bad dreams." Patton said returning. "My door is always open."
Virgil gave Logan a one armed hug and seconded that.
Next time Logan woke up in the middle of the night he would go to Virgil's room and be reassured that everything was fine. He would crawl into bed with him and they would sleep untill morning, Logan waking up feeling better rested then he had in months.
For now he would drink his tea and listen to Patton and Virgil talk about light topics to ease the mood.

Day 11: Full Moon!
Logan sighed as he bumped open the front door with his hip, his arms currently occupied with a bundled up and sleeping Janus. He readjusted his friend in his arms, before silently moving through the kitchen. He hadn’t expected anyone to still be out. It wasn’t particularly late, but late enough that most people would have retired to their rooms.
Which is why he startled a bit when he ran into Patton in the living room, sitting on the couch.
And from the way Patton jumped, he didn’t seem to have expected Logan either.
“Hey! You’re back so soon?” Patton asked with a slight head tilt, his eyes gazing down to Janus.
“Yeah.” Logan said, hopping Patton wouldn’t detect the slight disappointment in his tone. Logan had been very excited to show little Janus the full Hunter's Moon, and just star gaze a little bit. He had wanted to take littleJanus out star gazing for a while actually, but the the little thing was usually either too tired or preoccupied.
"He fall asleep on you?" Patton asked, scooting over on the couch and patting the space beside him. Logan appreciated the gesture and walked over, though not before laying Janus down in the other couch, making sure the regressor was settled before sitting himself down next to Patton.
"Not on me. But beside me, yes." Logan eventually answered, still struggling to mask the disappointment. And he knew he had failed with Patton’s next statement.
"And you're disappointed by that, hm?" Patton phrased it like a question, but Logan got the feeling it was anything but. He sighed, debating the merits in his mind about lying, but found it to he useless. Patton seemed to know anyways
"I am. And I feel very disgruntled by that fact. I really shouldn't be having this many emotions about it." Logan admitted. He wasn't upset with Janus by any means! Logan would never be disappointed in his little one for listening to his body and falling asleep. But he still felt…hurt. It was strange.
"Hey, don't be so dismissive of your emotions, Lo." Patton said, his face filled with worry, until he suddenly smiled and placed a hand on Logan's shoulder.
"Can I give you a Dad's perspective?" Patton asked. Logan fought the urge to argue that Patton might have any perspective stemming from being a dad, seeing as he wasn't really one. But Logan also wasn't a female nor a mother, and yet still allowed himself to be called mom, so he wisely kept his mouth shut and instead nodded.
"You know how sometimes one of the kiddos will come up to you, and really want to show you something? And we follow along, and when we see whatever silly thing they've made or found or learned, we make our eyes go big, and we ask them all about their thing?" Patton asked. Logan nodded.
"And sometimes we hype up that interest, right? Because we want that kiddo to be seen and know that we care about the things they want to show us." Again, Logan nodded, still unsure where this was going.
"Well, kids don't have those same instincts. That doesn't mean Janus doesn't want to learn, it just means that maybe we have to find some compromise that works on his level." Patton suggested.
"Well... how do I propose I do that?"
+++
Logan couldn't stop himself from smile as he held hands with Janus, who babbled excitedly beside him.
"Mom and Jan field trip!" He sung excitedly as they walked. Logan chuckled as he continued to guide Janus towards their destination.
He had listened to Patton's advice and met Janus in the middle. Janus was si y too exhausted to stay awake to star gaze at night. But, Logan had found a way to bring Jnaus to the stars during the day time, when you would be up and rearing to go.
"You need to be on your best behavior at the planetarium, little one." Logan reminded as the building came into view. Janus nodded once, but the big bright smile on his face was proof enough to Logan that he was going to have lots of fun.

THE SIDES (+ extra) & THEIR PACIS ! (headcanons)
Not all of these will have images! Some of them will if I can find an example of what I am imagining :)
Under cut because it got super long!! -_-;
Roman - obviously, very disney themed or prince themed. He'd prefer red pacifiers, because it's his colour !!!, but will make an exception if it's a character he likes.
The 1st 1 is a Queen of Hearts themed paci, but I think Roman would love all the red details and especially the little crown. I also think Roman loves lilo & stitch (more than usual when he's regressing) & would have a blue paci if it means he can have stitch on his paci.
(Also I think stitch reminds him of his brother Remus and he loves his brother! Even if big him denies it)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(1 & 3 - bellesbinkies on IG, 2 - kittycat.crafts)
Orange - we haven't met him, but I think he loves orange juice and probably has a paci covered in oranges. (Big him is so upset everyone keeps comparing him to an orange and gets even more upset that little him loves oranges).
Janus - has to have a snake on it. If it doesn't have a snake on it he cries and cries and cries until Roman/whoever summons a new one/adds one. Unfortunately, I cannot find a paci that has snakes on it :(
It can be any colour and decorated any way, but it has to have a snake (or multiple, preferably). He also loves when his pacis are the colour of his caregiver(s)!!
I did find this one by bellesbinkies & I think it's right up his alley anyway :3 just imagine there's a snake on it, or janus will wail.
Tumblr media
( 1 - bellesbinkies )
Remus - bright green and covered in as many charms and jewels as he can put on it. Once it becomes unusable and he starts all over with a new one!! I think he has a gir from invader zim center piece or a skelanimal (most likely lolita the dolphin).
He also 100% somehow chews through the all rubber pieces of his binkie . No one knows how he does it.
Tumblr media
Patton - FROGS !!! He most likely owns like 20 pacis and theyre all different. One has a frog centerpiece and another one has a dog and another one has a rabbit and another one has a cat— he needs a million (even if logan tells him its impossible to own a million). He likes to switch out through out the day, he doesn't want any paci feeling unloved !!!
I bet he also loves pacis with shakers!
Logan - probably has around 3 or 4 pacis that he switches through, but his most used is something that looks like the one below. He also has his CG (or himself) glue on little letters that spells out "little star" :)
The rest of his pacis are dark blue with various themes, like doctor who and ocean animals! He has a bingo paci too (He loves bluey!)
Tumblr media
Virgil - i found this one and this is SO virgil. He probably goes all out for his binkies !! He wants his binkie to be "spoopy", but not super scary or else he gets really scared (remus once tried gifting him one that was just a little too much for baby virgil & he couldnt sleep alone for weeks).
He uses one paci at a time, usually for months, but once he gets tired of it, he will swap it out.
Tumblr media
EXTRA !!
C!Thomas - has a steven universe paci. It's red with a yellow shaker full of little stars (like steven's shirt)
Emile Picani - a snoopy paci that's black and white with little charms
Remy/Sleep - all black paci, covered in little "z"s with the words "sleepy baby" on it.

When the Night Comes Game Review
Tumblr media
Reviews can contain a few spoilers. Heavy, in-depth spoilers will have a warning. All opinions are my own and I have not been paid to do this review.
Dev Team - Lunaris Games Romance Routes - 6 individual and 2 polyamorous routes Rating - M17 Available On - Windows, Linux, Mac Price - $12.99
Overall Rating 5/5
Summary (retrieved from Lunaris Games website)
When The Night Comes is a queer, narrative-driven, supernatural visual novel originally released for free over a year from October 2018 - November 2019. When The Night Comes: The ReVamp is set to release in late Spring 2021 and will be a definitive version of the original game with a number of improvements, including voice acting and updated UI and artwork. 
Play as a renowned Hunter; a creature slayer who has been called to the quiet, strange little town of Lunaris to assist the local Enforcers with an investigation into a series of unsettling and unexplained supernatural murders. Immerse yourself in the world of witches, vampires, demons and lycans as you slowly unravel the dark mystery that lies deep within the roots of the town.
The question is, are the creatures of the night the ones you should really be afraid of? 
A story of finding a home and a family in the most unlikely of places, and a lesson in learning to bare your teeth at your maker.
Reaper Review
When the Night Comes was a game that I had no intention on loving. I was dipping my toes into playing dating sims/otomes on stream and I really liked the art style so I decided to play it and it was the best decision of my life.
The city of Lunaris is cursed by an unknown creature, leaving its citizens living in fear whenever night falls, especially every few days when the beast habitually hunts. 
You play as a Hunter (fitting huh?), called in by the Lunaris Hunter team to help them put an end to the attacks. With customizable name and pronoun options, you’re slowly introduced to the main cast who are primarily all your romance options. 
CAST (in order of appearance):
Ezra (VA - Adam Faison) He/Him : The local witch with kind eyes and a heart to match.
Tumblr media
Finn (VA - Gideon Emery) He/Him : Vampire clan leader whose comments made me blush on more than one occasion.
Tumblr media
Augustus (VA - Jonah Scott) They/Them : Major General of the Hunters and one of my all time favorite romances.
Tumblr media
Piper (VA - Ione Butler) She/Her : Fellow Hunter with the cutest laugh and loyal to her comrades to a fault.
Tumblr media
Alkar (VA - Jalen K. Cassell) He/Him : Resident mischievous Lycan who honestly shouldn’t have as bad of a reputation as he does.
Tumblr media
Omen (VA - Chris Patton) He/Him : Cinnamon Bun of a demon who is too good for this world.
Tumblr media
Throughout the game you meet side characters, work with the main cast, and investigate as much as you can about the creature that stalks the town. While it is an otome, the level of mystery in the game about the investigation and deaths is quite high and I found myself falling deeper into the story that when the big reveal came I was overcome with emotion. You find out just as much about the MC as you do about your companions and the mystery of the town.
One thing I appreciated was that there is no split between romance and story either, but rather the romances add to it, showing in their own ways how they grow to care about you and your wellbeing as the MC. The characters also have moments with each other, not just in the polyamory routes but in friendships and when you learn about their intricate backstories with one another. The banter between them all is on another level and I’m especially fond of the end of the game when all of the main cast come together in one big plan to find the beast and destroy it for good. Nothing annoys me more than being engrossed in a story only to be then thrown into lovey-dovey mode (and don’t get me wrong I love lovey-dovey mode). 
Other things to note:
There is a festival scene which you can explore and spend time with your LI with a beautiful CG (a special full-screen static image) at the end of the moment that I just wanted to stay in forever.
Clear heart icon for dialogue options that are explicitly for romancing a character. So if you don’t want to romance anyone you can easily do it or on the other hand if you want to lock in a romance you don’t have to stress about what to say.
All of the best lines have voice acting however I’d say only about 75-80% of the game has voice acting. It’s a little annoying but only because I love the cast so much.
There are over 60 CGs and post-game mini stories (which I actually didn’t learn about the post-game stories until I was writing this…time to go play again!). 
Of course bad endings are possible…but to be totally honest I’m too scared to play that route!
Lastly, my favorite part of the game would have to be the spicy scenes with your LI, if you so choose to pursue them. Without being visually explicit, you get to enjoy some sweet sweet spicy time with your favorite characters and this is where the voice acting is present a majority of the time if not completely. Now I love me some spice, but sometimes CGs can put me off from it. I prefer to imagine what’s going on rather than be shown AND if you’re trying to play sneakily, CGs are just a huge announcement to what you’re doing. The script is so well done that in my opinion CGs aren’t necessary.
This game has all of my love and I’d recommend it to anyone and everyone, so if you’re looking for a story with mystery and well developed characters I would say you’ve found it.
Purchase the game HERE.

tomas sanders
I'll call it more a hyper fixation then cute gay shit but I've been recently watching a lot of Thomas Sanders and more sanderside than his other content Patton is a CG or a little you could not tell me otherwise, Virgil is definitely a trauma regressor for me, Roman CG ,and also Logan CG
could somebody explain to me why I grew attached to Patton yeah he has a wonderful lovely cute adorable personality but something drew me into like him and I don't know what it is, btw I feel virgil is relatable and Roman is my creativity when I drink too much grape juice
