Summary
For the past five years, Virgil has been stuck in an orphanage with only bad memories and music to keep him company. There had been hope, at first, that if he smiled and behaved he’d find a loving family to call his own. But in the end that hope died, crushed under the truth his father had so often repeated- something in Virgil, hidden deep beneath the polite exterior, was rotten.
Simply put, Virgil was a bad omen. No matter who fostered him, their lives crumbled in Virgil’s presence. It started with small things- a leaking sink here, a cracked window there-, but it inevitably escalated until a broken marriage or a burning roof led them to return Virgil. After the eighth or ninth time, he stopped forcing a cheery attitude and accepted that he wasn’t worth the effort. Any effort. It would be best if everyone left him alone to melt into his corner and disappear.
But there was someone that wanted him, a couple that was almost as strange as he was. Despite his warnings, they took him in and gave him a warm home. And yet... can they really fix the broken mechanism of Virgil’s heart? And is this magical new world as wondrous as it seems, or are there monsters lurking in the shadows?

Summary
Snippets of Patton's time at the Academy (and his relationships/friendships with Logan, Silvie and Lars).
[This fic is meant to be read after More Than You Know (first fic in the 'series', ongoing) and will make 0 sense without it. I don't recommend trying it out as a standalone, but you're free to be god's strongest soldier and have a go anyway haha]
