Virgil was just sitting around, taking a break from editing his most recent video when his phone buzzed. Assuming it was Logan checking that he was alright he picked up his phone to answer. But instead of seeing a text from 'Nerd' he found one from an unknown number.
Now Virgil usually didn't answer anything from an unknown number. After all, who knew what was on the other side? But at the moment his mind was not functioning like normal, and so despite his better judgement, he opened the text, and typed out his answer.
Unknown:Hello there!
Virgil:Who tf are you
Unknown:We met at Mia's party last night, Roman?
Virgil:I have no clue who either of those people are
Unknown:What? Are you sure?
Virgil:Pretty sure you got the wrong number
Virgil expected it to just end there, but nooooooo. It had to go on.
Unknown:Well this is embarrassing
Unknown:What are you like?
Virgil:Excuse me?
Unknown:What are you like? Personality, looks
Virgil:Why the hell do you want to know?
Unknown:I got a number expecting to have a new friend, might as well keep with
Virgil rolled his eyes. The nerve of this guy! However, the idea of having a friendship where the other person had no clue who he really was, felt appealing. Virgil hated the idea of getting fake friends just because he made videos on the internet that had just started to gain views. It was starting to get hard to find out who really cared about him and who just wanted clout. So this, was a great idea for him.
Virgil:Well what are you like
Unknown:I do a lot of acting, it's my job after all!
Virgil:You said your name was Roman right?
Unknown:Indeed, how about you?
Virgil changed the contact name to 'Roman', promising himself he'd find a better more funny one. No one on his phone had a serious name, not even Logan.
Virgil:Just call me V
Roman:Well aren't you mysterious
Virgil:Think of it like a video game, you'll unlock it in the future
Roman:I do like a good challenge
Virgil laughed and shook his head. Telling Roman his name might reveal who he was. Since 'Virgil' wasn't a common name at all. It's not that it was a bad name, it just was easy to recognize.
Roman:Just so that I'm not misgendering when I tell my friends about the mysterious man in my texts pronouns?
Virgil:He/him. I see you are a man of not being an ass too
Roman:Of course lol
Roman:He/him for me
Virgil:Got it
Virgil broke out in a grin. It happened every time someone asked him his pronouns. It already felt like he could tell Roman about IT, though, that was still a risk. Better to be safe and careful then get cursed out and possibly threatened.
Roman:So V, what do you look like?
Virgil:That's non of your damn business
Roman:Alright than keep your secrets
