#cogitating cap

[loganslowdown4]

It’s comfort Logan hours rn

[muppetable]

i know his birthday isn’t technically till tomorrow (lol thomas and i have the same time zone) but i wanted to share these tweets for some thomas sanders appreciation

[corvus-divum]

Can you doodle Logan in his cogitating cap? :D

Cogitating cap !! I loved this when it showed up it's so silly fun !!

[ellistruggle]

say what you will, but Logan suddenly wearing the cogitating cap for the first time and his face in this moment is the funniest fucking visual gag in the series

[paperleef]

Y’all I think the orange side might be impulse or something similar to irrationality

Edit: adding onto this…

impulse (noun) : A sudden spontaneous inclination or incitement to some usually unpremeditated action. A propensity or natural tendency usually other than rational (Merriam Webster)

Rewatched WTIT and right after Logan goes orange eyes on Remus, Thomas gets Nico’s call and eventually leaves his apartment to go look at art installations with him. Remember, Thomas and Logan had a whole plan of tidying up the apartment and despite all the hurdles set up by Remus, the thing that made Thomas give up on that plan was when Logan, logic, was absent and blinded by the rage he felt when Remus wasn’t taking him seriously.

This line in DWIT is also kind of evidence? This was right after Remus shoves teeth up Logan’s nose instead of nipples which is why Logan went “I thought you said…?”

And Remus goes, “I changed my mind. I bet that really gets to you huh Logan?”

Yada yada yada Thomas changes his mind about doing his chores and that getting to Logan in a way it’s a bit anachronistic but I think thematically it works?

Adding more onto this…

When thinking of the complementary sides, they’re essentially two sides (haha sides) of the same coin: Patton and Janus as the moral character, and Roman and Remus as the creativity. Logan and Orange, while supposedly opposite, must also complement each other. If Orange were to be either impulse or irrationality, he must also act as the similar role to instinct, which is entirely different to anxiety.

It’s the same idea as “living life planned vs in the moment” which could also fit the direction the story with the addition of Nico in the cast as Thomas’ love interest. That leads to two scenarios of a relationship or heartbreak, both potentially opening an opportunity to introduce Orange

Ok cogitating caps are off

[emoprincey]

His lil smile when he puts the cogitating cap on !!

[tstwitterupdates]

My friend and I were discussing what kind of hats the sides would wear, since Thomas mentioned he and his characters would be wearing hats for a while, and we came to the conclusion that

Roman is a crown guy, obvs

My friend remembered Logan wore a baseball cap once, but they said a bucket hat would suit him better. But, seeing as he’s supposed to be kind of business-y formal-y. While looking back at this conversation to write this ask I brought up that Logan would kind of be more of a bowler hat type.

Patton would definitely wear some kind of cute beanie

Virgil also kind of seemed like the beanie type, but I remembered he wore a backwards baseball hat that one time and that fit better

My friend said Remus would wear hats that don’t look like hats, or, like, other people’s heads. Which does seem very Remus!

okay we can all agree on the crown for Roman.

for Logan i don’t know. i think what is most likely is that he just wears the blue cogitating cap because Thomas already has it but eh. you’re totally right that he should wear something that isn’t so casual. i think no one is bringing up the hat he had for his Sherlock costume but i would totally support that one. not too casual and the bowler hat is i think too formal, that would go better with a bow tie and a suit, which doesn’t match Logan’s teacher deal.

Patton with a beanie definitely. specially if it has cute ears, maybe those that you can move with the. the things that hang from the hat that you press so they send air to the ears so the lift up. i don’t know what they’re called.

both Virgil and he could also just wear their hoodies. specially Virgil, i could see him hiding his entire head under the hoodie.

and gosh that Remus idea is horrifying thank you. also i think he would probably not settle for one thing and keep changing it randomly.

but who knows. only thomas.

i think he should get a bunch of the same hat in different colors and have the sides wear them lol. like thomas with a multicolored beanie and the others just wear the same thing in a color that matches their outfits that would be fun.

for the bingo thing?? how about logan??

- lots of love, rayn 🤍

Thanks for the ask, Ryan! I can absolutely do my favorite boy, apologies for my lack of hinges.

I think Logan is probably the most trustworthy, not bc none of the others wouldn't try their darnedest, but bc he also wouldn't get distracted and he's very capable and nor very impulsive generally.

I don't think anyone can quantify the sheer amount of Logan angst I have read, which is a fantastic marker for how much I like him. I relate to him so hard. I was always smart (and got called a robot frequently) but I have trouble with the emotional stuff. Identifying emotions is not my strong suit so sometimes I'll be straight chilling but start crying and have no idea why.

Also he has eldest daughter syndrome for real. Someone please help my boy.

Also one of the few cases where we could fix each other. If Logan Sanders told me he was proud of me I would shatter into a million pieces and reform into a better person. If he gave me a pat on the back and told me everything would be ok I'd say I'm yours in whatever way you want me. Lab partner? Done, I'll bring PPE. Help with work? I'm not that smart but I'll try. Wanna make out about it? My tongue's already in his mouth. Who said that?

Also, hi, he is so fucking tragic. Everytime he is ignored he takes it as a personal failure and if anything ever happened to c!Thomas that he could have prevented if he had been listened to it would destroy him, even if he literally did everything he could. c!Thomas cannot function without his Logic, we all know this. He's trying so hard, but he's not getting far at all and it really does matter. And this is why he feels like he can't ever be silly or have fun bc the weight of his world is on his shoulders and I'm not crying about it I swear.

I also need everyone to acknowledge the growth he's gone through. Whenever something gets brought to his attention and he sees that he needs to work on it, it doesn't happen that episode sometimes, but he does change his methods or behavior. He's trying so hard. That's what really gets me is his genuine, honest, whole-hearted effort that he puts into everything he does. That's my BOY.

Another thing really gets me is how absolutely tender Logan can be. Like Mr. No Emotions rolls up and does his best to provide comfort and care even though it's not his strong suit and he knows it (though he will try to defer to someone who's better at it if possible). This is absolutely related to how genuine he can be, which makes his current state devastating to me. Bitter cynicism is not what I want him to feel like he has to do! He's always been a little sarcastic and a little petty, but like in a way that didn't make me concerned for his mental health. He had such a beautiful outlook at the beginning but it's long since started to crumble. I hope he's not left with ruins.

I have so much to say, I don't think I'll ever be done. I really want to talk about what a dork he is. 'Cogitating cap'? I'm in love with him. I could never argue with him like 'whatever you say bbgirl'. Except for when he's doing that 'I don't have emotions' routine. I need all of them to stop lying to each other and themselves.

Right, so current state of canon thoughts. I need him to have the bitchiest, pettiest, rawest break down imaginable. He deserves to let it out and I want it to be explosive. I want him to do something they can't ignore.

Just in case I want to be clear, I don't think he's perfect and he's not the only one getting ignored. He is absolutely not the only one denying his feelings and I need ALL of them to cut that shit out. Also any annoyance expressed is at the character as a 'person' not the narrative, I really like how everything is being written and explored. That 'done dirty by canon' mark was hesitant and now I can't even remember why I put it there. I'm sure I'll remember in the middle of the night, I've had a long day lol.

Thanks again for the ask, and as always, absolutely anyone and everyone is welcome and invited to agree or disagree or ask for clarifications or expansions. I tried to keep it short and tbh compared to the amount of thoughts I have, I succeeded.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME THAT WAS THE CUTEST LITTLE LOGAN SMILE IN THE WORLD

[idyllphile]

I have a headcanon that Logan created the Cogitation Cap back around the time of "Fitting In (Hogwarts Houses!)" with the intention for it to be part of his everyday outfit so he could cover up his new purple hair. he scrapped the idea but still kept the hat because he likes it and thinks it's cool
