Accepting Anxiety, Part 1/2: Excepting Anxiety! Page #3

[Logan]:
He may not have had a physical presence, but he was always there within Thomas, to some extent. And he contributes more than what you credit him. Plus, he too, may represent more than just anxiety, even though it is a significant part of who he is.

[Roman]:
Even still, I just don’t see why he’s necessary. If Anxiety is gone, what do we have to lose?

[Thomas]:
I don’t fear death.

[Patton]:
Wow.

[Roman]:
So, you’re super brave. That’s good.

[Logan]:
There’s a difference between bravery and acting without caution. Think fast! *Chucks a laptop which hits Thomas in the back of the head*

[Roman]:
Oh, my- sweet Cole Sprouse, what-

[Thomas]:
That really hurt. Was that a laptop? That, like, hurt real bad. Woah…

[Logan]:
Unalert, and without his natural defensive reflexes. Yes, it seems that Anxiety has officially clocked out.

[Roman]:
Okay. Well, he can work on that.

[Logan]:
Thomas, did you remember to lock your motor vehicle earlier today?

[Thomas]:
I probably did, I’m not sure, but probably.

[Logan]:
Weaker memory.

[Roman]:
Wh- that’s not a symptom of a lack of anxiety.

[Logan]:
Not directly, but with the anxiety over leaving his car unlocked… Thomas always double checks to make sure, securing that memory in place.

[Thomas and Patton]: I doubt anyone will go looking through my [his] car- oh my gosh [goodness]!

[Patton]:
You just see the best in people.

[Logan]:
But he can’t always afford to.

[Patton]:
Ugh, yeah… I guess you’re right.

[Thomas]:
Well, it sounds like I’m in trouble or something.

[Roman]:
No, it sounds like these two are worrying too much.

[Logan]:
That’s the thing- is anyone among us worried?

[Patton]:
It’s because he isn’t worried and that doesn’t seem right, Roman.

[Thomas]:
Princey’s never liked Anxiety, that’s his problem!

[Roman]:
That’s not true.

[Thomas]:
Mmm…

-flash back-

[Anxiety]:
Hey there, Princey.

[Roman]:
Ohhkay, I can’t stand that guy.

-switch flashback-

[Roman]:
(as Valerie) I’m trying REALLY hard not to like you right now.

-switch flashback-

[Roman]:
Still don’t like you.

[Anxiety]:
What was that?

[Roman]:
Uh- chim chim cheroo!

-switch flashback-

[Roman]:
To offer his mopey, dopey input? I- I don’t like him.

-end flashback-

[Roman]:
Oh, now your memory works… That’s convenient.

[Logan]:
It is interesting to note that Patton and I have both had our moments of seeing eye to eye with Anxiety… But you seem to remain resolute as ever in how you perceive him.

[Roman]:
Look, I am the dreamer, and the one BIG thing that gets in the way of pursuing any new adventure, is fear.

[Thomas]:
*holds up a pair of jeans* Took my pants off!
