"Oh, Virgil...you can't possibly think they could ever truly like you." Deceit purred. Virgil pulled back, lowering his gaze.
"They do," he mumbled. Deceit snake eye, normally glowing, was duller than usual, the only indication that he was telling the truth. That didn't, however, stifle the bright, manic gleam in them.
"Virgil, you poor soul. They've really tricked you I to thinking they care for you? How pathetic. They hate you, Virgil. You hurt Thomas." His eyes gleamed again. A lie, but Virgil didn't look up in time to catch it. "Not that it's your fault. It's just in your nature, darling. You can't help that. But...you could always...remove yourself from the equation." A long, heavy pause. "Permanently," he added when Virgil glanced at his door. "No ducking out."
"I could always...go to the subconscious," Virgil mumbled, a spark appearing in his dull eyes. "It would help Thomas, because he wouldn't be without anxiety, but my physical form would fade."
Deceit grinned his teeth gleaming in the dark, an almost predatory glint in his cold eyes.
"Exactly."
