Could you write something where one of the sides has amaurosis fugax ( painless temporary/episodic blindness) and they don't want the others to notice?
I know nothing about this except what a quick google search has given me. So, I don’t feel comfortable writing a fic about it, but I will write a hc list thingy. Please correct any mistakes I’ve made in regards to this! I less had this include the actual causes of amaurosis fugax, because I don’t know exactly how that type of stuff would work with them being sides.
- You know what they say - “love is blind” - and sometimes, this was true in an almost scary way
- When Roman first discovered he had amaurosis fugax, he was terrified, to say the least. Not that he would ever let on.
- The first time the temporary blindness happens, Roman had just rescued some royalty from a dragon witch. Luckily, he had already taken out the enemy and just needed to get the royalty back to the castle safely. Suddenly, it’s as though a black cloth has been put over his eyes.
- It’s a couple minutes before his vision returns and he is doing his best to stay calm
- Once he gets back to the shared part of the mindscape, he goes immediately to the library (which is typically Logan’s domain) to do research. This is where he comes across the term “amaurosis fugax”
- He refuses to tell the others about this though. He is meant to be the fearless prince. The prince that has no weaknesses.
- Everyone starts picking up on signs that something is wrong though.
- They start to ask questions. Why does Roman suddenly know exactly how many steps it takes to get everywhere in the main part of the mindscape? Why has he suddenly stopped joining them when they go new places when even Anxiety agrees to go with? Why has he stopped making so many trips to go on quests?
- Then one day something terrible happens to Roman. He had gone out on a quest, one that suppose to be simple. He had another episode though and ended getting hurt, worse than he had in the past.
- When he is returned home in his injured state Patton immediately puts him on bed rest ( not that Roman can argue anyway, he’s in too much pain). The other sides finally have a chance to question him. Their main question is how the heck did you manage to get this hurt?
-Roman refuses to answer them
-That is until he is high on pain killers
-He ends up spilling exactly what’s going on, what happened and what he knows about it.
-The others are quick to take on any thoughts that they’re going to think less of their Prince over something like this; an illness that can’t be helped.
-The others then start making efforts to make Roman’s life easier when he has his episodes
