Random Logan Headcanons!
He’s the youngest of the group and used to being smarter than others, but because of being younger he didn’t have many friends which led him to be more closed off to others. He studied statistics on every subject so he could have contributions to conversations since he has trouble in social situations, which leads perfectly into my other headcanon that-
Logan is on the autism spectrum! People often assume that he’s neurotypical because he’s intelligent, but he’s not. When he was younger he didn’t understand jokes or why people found things funny so he researched the science behind it. It comforted him to know the exact processes that led to abstract concepts, even as he got older he found himself researching about the chemicals that led to love, why people had different sexualities, and why people felt lonely. He gets really overstimulated whenever people are arguing and talking over him.
He has a bunch of words games on his phone which he plays to relax. It helps him feel in control when he’s had a particularly difficult day. It helps him to feel like there’s always a solution, a rationality to things.
He often reads descriptions on how certain abstract paintings are supposed to make you feel or asks Roman about them and documents his findings. Like, how red is anger or passion and how round shapes often symbolize joy and gentleness.

Sanders Sides & Youtube head canons
This is just what I think the sides would watch on YouTube.. :)
Warnings: swearing, mention of depression and anxiety
just found this in my drafts, I have no idea how long it’s been there
Also- the names aren’t color coded because it wouldn’t let me do that for some reason
Enjoy!
Logan:
- MatPat STAN
- Film Theory, Food Theory, Game Theory, all of it
- After he watches a movie for the first time, he sees if any of his faves have made a video on it yet
- After a debate (or when he feels like debating) he looks up the topic on YouTube to see if he can find any video essays
- He knows what ASMR is, so you know what I’m about to say
- HE IS OBSESSED WITH ASMR, okay???
- Especially personal attention centered ones bc he doesn’t get personal attention irl
- Started watching Buzzfeed Unsolved with Virgil after AA
- When he’s had a bay day or week he searches for those videos that are titled “This video will make you cry”
- Not going to elaborate on that one so here ya go, my fellow Logan stans
Virgil:
- Watches emo band music videos (obviously)
- ADORES those SFX makeup artists
- He may or may not want to be a makeup artist in his free time
- When he’s anxious, he watches ASMR
- No one is aware that he does this
- He knows that Patton and Logan watch it, but he’s given them so much shit about it, he cannot ever tell them he likes it too
- One day when he was having a panic attack, he thought “oh what the hell, it’s worth a shot”
- Has been hooked ever since
- He loves conspiracy theory videos, as we learned
- Religiously watched Buzzfeed Unsolved
- You know those people who make sculptures that look exactly like Tim Burton characters?
- Yeah, his watch history is FILLED with video after video of people crafting Jack Skellington or Emily, the Corpse Bride
- He may or may not have tried to make one himself
Patton:
- Obviously watches the videos where the pet’s army parents come home
- LOVES baking videos, specifically Preppy Kitchen, because he adores how neat everything looks
- When he’s had a rough day, he makes a quick run to the store so he can whip up one of the recipes from the video
- Really likes art related ASMR
- It soothes him
- He sometimes watches gaming videos
- Games like Minecraft
- Or anything on DanandPhilGames
- When he’s depressed, he watches music videos from Thomas’s favorite bands when he was a teenager
- For that sweet sweet nostalgia
- Clips from The SpongeBob musical cheer him up as well
Roman:
- Watches broadway performances
- His recommended is filled with small artists who sing covers
- Seeing people following their dreams makes him so happy
- But when he’s feeling regret about the wedding, he actively avoids them
- Sometimes falls down an art rabbit hole because it's SO PRETTY
- He doesn’t understand why Virgil likes the SFX makeup videos, when the beauty guru’s videos are drama filled and “have pretty makeup”
- As we know, he likes epic fail videos
- When he’s having a bad day, he will watch those for HOURS
- Really likes the commentary videos about 90 Day Fiance
- Does not watch the show outside of those, but absolutely LOVES to watch those
- Or maybe he does watch it, you decide ;)
Janus:
- You KNOW he is subscribed to every single drama channel out there
- When he gets a notification from one of them, he stops whatever he is doing and goes to watch it
- All for the tea
- Okay this may sound a bit off for him, but he cannot stop watching YouTubers who dress like they’re from a different time
- Rachel Maksy, Karolina Zebrowska, etc
- He loves him some chaotic queens
- And he gets to learn new things
- Not only about history and fashion, but about sewing
- This man made his capelet and that is not up for debate, I’m sorry
Remus:
- Watches pimple popping videos
- And cystic surgeries, apparently
- Virgil got him into SFX makeup, so he enjoys watching those videos when he needs something a bit tamer
- JermBot is his FAVORITE BITCH
- His chaotic energy is *chef’s kiss* in his opinion
- Watches old clips of Evil Knievel to see if he can attempt the tricks
- Starts fights with people in comment sections for funzies
- Also watches Buzzfeed Unsolved
- Because why the fuck not
- Okay this next one is kinda angsty but here we go
- He and Roman used to watch Simply Nailogical together so they could do art on each other’s nails
- The art that Roman did was a mirror image of Cristine’s, and Remus’s was, well.. You know-
- Remus-y
- HOWEVER - that does not mean that his nail art wasn’t good, because you know damn well that it was
- So when he’s having a really bad day, he watches her channel

So, I was rewatching Perfect Gift again for like the 100th time and I just make a realization.
It's about the newspaper that Logan was given. He was so quick to assume it was just a cheap newspaper and nothing else to it. That's pretty depressing when you think that he's not seeing things in a deeper perspective anymore. It's as if he doesn't see a point to do so anymore.
It was sorta like how in the 5 year Anniversary vid, when Thomas asked "What do you think is next for us?" And Logan gave up and said "You tell me". He doesn't see the point in putting his two cent in anymore and starting to think that the others don't see him more than just a boring, worthless, out of date person that's just a stereotypical nerd.
However, when he starts actually looking deeper into the newspaper, he sees something different, something unexpected. A well thought out puzzle for him specifically. Showing that the others, Virgil specifically, knows Logan is more than boring. He like reading, yes. He likes puzzles, yes. Making it a game full of mystery and fun? You wouldn't think Logan would be into that but he is. It proves there is more to Logan. A happier side to him that he's repressed for means of being taken seriously.
The newspaper is a representation of Logan. On the outside, he's inconspicuous. He's normal. He's put together. You wouldn't think much of him or give him a second thought or glance. But, once you look deeper and actually start reading into him, you see a whole new, different person. Someone happier. Someone interesting. Someone hurt. Someone frustrated. Someone... that's more than meets the eye.

Okay Okay Okay—More Samder Slides headcanons time..You’ve opened Pandora’s Box…
Personal headcanons/design things:
Keeps food in his pockets and then forgets it’s there. The way I know the amount of crumbs are insane.
Re-attached his logo with haphazard stitching so it matched Virgil’s :]
Always loses one sock in each pair. ALWAYS.
Has THE most insane takes. Leads to a lot of fun Patton and Logan discussions actually (*Hits them with the Trolley problem*: DISCUSS)
Patton would take the Utilitarian approach I think…Would think you should always sacrifice the one person in the trolley problem instead of the five because it minimizes the most suffering).
To that point, I really do think all the sides would enjoy watching The Good Place. Probably also The Magic School Bus.
All film media in Patton’s room is on VHS. Even if it came out recently. He made them that way.
I know we’ve literally seen his room in canon but in my heart it looks like Howl’s Room in Howl’s Moving Castle (insane levels of eclectic).
Has set the kitchen on fire 237856 times. It will happen again.
Has hand-made bracelets (themed each of them around one of the other sides).
Also has a hand-made doll collection…Roman’s doll is kind of like a traditional princely doll, Logan is probably a cube craft doll, Virgil’s is Coraline style (later redoes it with Remus’ help to add Virgil’s extra legs and mandibles (they’re articulated. He’s very proud)). Remus is a finger puppet and Janus is a sock puppet (those last two might change later)…
To that point: he still has a spider phobia, but he’s working on it (mostly for Virgil. A lot of it is him being like “could you please describe “x” to me, or draw me a picture before you revert so I know what to expect? :).” It’s going well.
One time they tried theorizing what kind of spider Virgil was. Patton immediately threw in Jumping Spider (he’s not) but Logan was happy to hear Patton had done some kind of research into something.
He’s Roman’s test audience/proofreader. He may be a Yes Man, but he’s good at spotting when character motives are unclear in a story/just generally to bounce ideas around with. They have days where they parallel play. Patton does his arts and crafts and Roman does his writing. At the end of it, they swap and critique.
Me throwing my takes at you (thank you for coming to my TED Talk):

I need more analogical in the headspace. I don't want AUs, I want my two Little Autistic Guys shoved together in the brainspace because Virgil is having a Bad Time and none of the more 'emotional' sides are available (they were helping Thomas or something), so Logan helps. Or Virgil just SPECIFICALLY wants to be around Logan.
I need more of them being specifically described in the brainspace and looking different from Thomas. I need more of them being mildly upset that they don't look like themselves when they're helping Thomas.
I need more of the darksides and lightsides being basically two weird semi-funtional poly relationships.
I need more of Virgil having been in an unhealthy relationship with one of the Darksides and thinking he got away from them
I need more of Janus actually biting people and having venom.
I need more angst around Virgil feeling like he's a poser who's actually Bad and undeserving of the care given to by the Lightsides
I need more of Virgil not liking the phrases "Darkside" and "Lightside"
I need more of Virgil feeling infantilized by Patton and Patton struggling to get it
I need more long essays written about One Line to read and be convinced by.
(Please recommend fics, artists, tumblr accounts, etc.. I'm begging you.)
