I'm sorry I'm so basic. But i had to do my take on Altruistic Skittles' animatic, *Every day a little death*
I had block on my other stories, and this ah has been infiltrating my dreams. I have no idea how long this is going to be. Hope you enjoy.
Virgil was bored out of his mind. His Father, the King of the Isles of Storms, had insisted he attend yet another boring conference between him and the King of Starlight. He said that it would help Virgil to become a better King someday. But Virgil didn't want to be king.
So he decided to sneak away while his Father wasn't looking and find something more interesting to do. Waiting until the King was mid-lecture, the six-year-old slipped under the table and crawled away. The only one who saw him go was Prince Thomas, who only grinned.
Virgil made it out the door, and started sprinting away. His black cloak billowed behind him, giving the impression of flight. He giggled, not paying attention to where he was going. Suddenly, he ran straight into someone about his height. Both went down hard.
"Oof," came a voice from underneath Virgil. The young Prince flinched and scrambled off. He was horrified to find that he had ploughed into Prince Patton, the youngest Prince of Starlight. He started panicking, his breaths speeding up crazy fast.
Virgil had had anxiety attacks before, but not as bad as this. He felt like he was dying. There was someone touching him. Usually, touch was a big no go during an attack, but this was...comforting. He began to calm.
"Are you alright?" Virgil looked up to see Prince Patton offering him a hand up. Virgil accepted.
"Um…" Virgil began awkwardly, "I'm fine."
"Hi fine! I'm Patton!" The prince in blue giggled. Virgil stared in awe at the freckled, bespeckled boy, then began laughing along.
"No, my name is Virgil," The boy in purple gasped out.
"Can I call you Virge?"
Virgil nodded, beaming. He'd never had a friend before.
Patton's face lit up like the sun. "Do you want to play hide-and-seek with me?"
"S-sure!" Virgil squeaked. Patton covered his eyes and began counting. Virgil scampered off, hiding behind a tapestry. He couldn't have known at the time, but this was the beginning of a fast friendship that would only grow.
