Hi, my name is Redtomatofan and I’m addicted to alcohol and prescription drugs.
I won’t go into much detail, it’s something that I’ve been dealing with for quite a while. So much has happened this year and it forced me to acknowledge that this really is an issue and I need to decide where I want to go in life - do I want to continue this slow suicide or do I want to get help. So I decided to get help.
I’ve been attending individual therapy and NA support groups for a few months now. I’m alcohol clean, drugs not so much (I’m getting there) but the cherry on top of this whole recovery journey is me going to a rehab.
So yeah, my point is that I’m going to a therapy centre… next week (September 30th). Which is both amazing and gives me hope that I might get better but also it’s scary as fuck. I’m supposed to stay there for 4 months (till the end of January) and I can already tell it’s going to be one hell of an experience.
Also this is where I really need to apologise. I’m so sorry to everyone who constantly keeps waiting for me to finish their commissions or Ko-fi requests. I have time until Tuesday next week (September 29th) so I’ll try my best to draw as much and as fast as I can but I can’t promise I’ll be able to finish everything. I have a shitton of stuff to take care of before I leave so I’ll be out quite often. On top fo that I sprained my ankle on Saturday so I walk extra slow too and it’s just the worst fucking timing.
I’ll try to be active on social media as well since being a part of this fandom, interacting with other people who love the same things and talking to all my friends is what keeps me going in all honesty. I’m probably not going to be posting any art however, I highly doubt I’ll have any privacy (I’m sharing room with other people) and I have no idea how much free time we have planned in our daily routines.
Again, I’m really, really sorry. I’m making this post to let everyone know I’ll drop in activity real soon but I’ll talk to everyone who is waiting for an artwork from me individually too.
Thank you everyone for reading and bless you all. Love you guys ♥️
Author’s Note: And now you all love big brother Virgil too. Sorry, I don’t make the rules. (Also, @star-crossed-shipper you asked to be tagged!)
Chapter 4/4:
Virgil was immensely relieved on learning that none of them would be living with their parents while the trial was going on, though he didn’t think the furious looks on their faces when the three of them were taken away would ever stop haunting his nightmares.
He hadn’t actually gotten a chance to tell either Roman or Remus what was going to happen before it started happening, and he regretted that the second both of them turned to him with such scared looks on their faces as they were all walked out of the house.
“It’s okay,” he said, pulling them both close as soon as he got a chance. “It’s gonna be okay. We’re not going anywhere you haven’t been before, okay?”
“Virgil, what’s going on?” Roman whispered.
“We’re going to go stay with Patton and his Dads for a while,” Virgil said, with the best attempt at a smile he could manage.
“What, why?” Remus asked. He sounded confused and worried, but he didn’t sound upset, which would help Virgil sleep a little easier that night.
“I’ll explain on the way, alright?”
He made sure to sit in the back of the car along with them, so when the social worker taking them to Thomas’ house started to drive, they could talk in private and without any of them having to turn around or lean back.
There are no thoughts in my head, there is only low tech grunge baby Batman with severe social anxiety wearing baggy t-shirts and sunglasses in the house.
