i havent interacted with sanders sides in so long because i just sort of lost interest at one point. i looked at the tag out of curiosity and. thomas used au for thumbnails??? and didnt pay artists??? what HAPPENED

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

House MD AU.

Logan is House. Patton is Wilson. Theyre both unwell but in very different ways. Thomas is Cuddy, who could use several drinks.

i had a small town au in my drafts thats been there longer than we've known janus' name. i was still calling him dee 😂

Can we take a minute to talk about how the dark sides appear? Like, we've seen Virgil rise up onto the screen many times with ease, however we've also seen him be summoned in a flash by outside influences. We've only ever seen Remus flash onto the screen (unless you count his first appearance in DWIT but I don't because he was behind the TV) He clearly has no interest in rising up like the light sides do. He's there to spook you and catch you off guard. However we've seen Janus ATTEMPT to actually rise up multiple times. Once when he was pretending to be Logan in SvS, and another in the latest Asides. We can tell he isn't very good yet, as he keeps stumbling and has yet to go up smoothly, but he's TRYING. He's trying to fit in and be like the light sides. He's trying to prove to Thomas that he's on his side. HE'S TRYING TO SHOW THOMAS THAT HE ISN'T A THREAT. Anyway this has been your sporadic "Remy Wont Shut Up About Janus Sanders" post, come again.

So this episode has given us wonderful information such as...

Virgil can be summoned by an adrenaline spike

Roman sleeps for over 11 hours in one sitting

Janus is canonically cold-blooded (and roman knows this)

Remus named his shower drain "Joanne's Fabrics"

Both of the other dark sides have already known this

Janus and remus had to "come all this way" for the video

Logan doesn't usually plan Secret Santa, someone else does

Logan voluntarily wore a Santa hat and invited the dark sides

Logan called roman a "master of (almost) all rhythms"

Patton knows very little to nothing about remus as a side

Virgil arguably knows logan the most of all the sides

And I think that's beautiful

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

As hilarious as the bitch slap itself was, let us not neglect all that came immediately after it because there's so much to discuss

Virgil saying "it really is Christmas!" in response to the slap

Patton being too focused on his present to be upset about it

Remus watching the scene unfold with barely contained glee

When roman accused janus of being rude for the whole episode (mostly he was just drunk), logan agreed that "he didn't even share the mulled wine"

Janus actually admitted that he was out of line

Patton said being "catty" is virgils thing, and virgil acknowledged that it was about him hissing like a cat

Janus not actually being too offended by the slap at all

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

The subtle confirmation that Remus and Janus have just NOT been included in anything for YEARS?? Can you imagine living in a world with exactly seven people and you don't get invited to Christmas?? I'm sorry, I'll never shut up about this.

me resurrecting this blog to spam reblog analogical memes. thats the only thing that brought me back

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

virgil in his room to himself before secret santa: no its fine. logan will know smths weird when i give him a newspaper he'll OBVIOUSLY check inside immediately. he wouldnt think id give him a gift that bad. duhh.

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

for everyone who had a fucking heart attack this ep

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

you are allowed to have criticisms of a 30 something year old public figure. its okay. you are not ungrateful.

TS tweet 16/9/23

Collaborated on eight videos this week, made a short video with awesome voice actors, debuted a podcast, Chapter 4 of Roleslaying is premiering next week, and just finalized the script to Part 3 of the Sanders Sides finale. I’ve been working my ass off, I’m really proud of me.

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

*pokes tss community* psssst! anyone still left?

[rainbowplaidvirgil]

literally. i used to love this fandom during its heyday. I spent almost all my time on here. but then things just... stopped happening. and people started getting bored and leaving, and then there was nothing to keep me interested, despite me desperately clinging to it. I had to move on.

it's so sad i'm still into sanders sides - i love the characters and storyline - but i had to move on bc nothing was happening

i went back to rewatch the series for funsies and there was only 1 new episode??? in the almost 2 years i've been gone??? it's ridiculous

No yeah. It’s so sad and upsetting for real. I don’t blame you for needing to move on. I have only kept up with this blog out of pure nostalgia, both for the memories in the fandom and for the show itself, and love for the characters. Otherwise, I would have probably deactivated a while ago. I’ve been tired of waiting and waiting for so long.

Some thoughts about the new asides episode

I really like the bit where Logan tried to meet Remus in the middle. He acknowledged that Remus had a role in helping Thomas and keeping him safe, even if he didn’t quite understand Remus’s purpose. He was willing to listen to Remus, and he wanted Remus to give him the same courtesy. I don’t know, even though it didn’t work, I thought it was a nice moment.
