my whump intro!

hey, gang!! i'm annie, you might know me from my main blog (@prodigal-explorer). this is my side blog, and it's a place for all things sanders sides whump! whump isn't a very big thing in this fandom, but i really love it and i think this fandom has so much whump potential.

to clear things up for anyone confused, whump is basically a genre of fanfic/headcanons/content where characters (they are called whumpees) are being hurt either by other characters (they are called whumpers) or by natural elements such as sickness and weather. sometimes, there are characters who help whumpees feel better, or protect them from whumpers (they are called caretakers). whump is sort of like hurt/comfort, but there's not always the guarantee of comfort. whether or not there's comfort is up to personal preference! when it comes to whump, pretty much any kind of pain/injury/hurt is on the table, so when engaging with it, it's important to read tags carefully, just for your own safety!

with this blog, the characters from sanders sides will be playing whumpees, whumpers, and caretakers in an assortment of ways! characters will not always be named. sometimes it will just be (side a) or (side b), or it will just be labeled as "whumper" or "whumpee" if i don't really have a sanders sides character in mind for the scenario.

more info about my page and what i will and won't write below! (warning: i don't censor any of my words, so proceed with caution if that bothers you. some of the content i mention is very sensitive.)

Fanders Sides Season 3: The Asides

Hello dears,

after the introductory post about FSS3 and before starting with the actual episodes, I wanted to write a short post about the Asides too.

As you all know, recently Mr. Sanders moved a few episodes here and there: random stuff became part of the Asides, while ATHD, FWSA and WTIT became main series episodes. Why did it take him so long to realize they were following the plot more than other videos? No idea.

But even though Mr. Sanders seems to find it a bit difficult to distinguish between main series episodes and Asides, the fandom on the other hand seems to know pretty well what the difference is and your suggestions in the survey have been AMAZING.

This is why I wanted to write this post: to expand on some of your best ideas. But also to offer you this post as a starting point. If you have even more ideas/thoughts/concepts for other possible Asides episodes, feel free to add them with a message or a reblog. We can go on forever with great suggestions.

Once again, I applied the same three rules I talked about in the introductory post:

to write something in the real of human/editing possibilities

it should be an idea that can be developed in a 20-minute-long video

no ships

_______________________________

The promised rap battle

During Am I ORIGINAL?, Logan had the best rap battle of all time and in the end, he said Patton would be the next one he would “fight”.

So this Aside will be the match Logan wanted. He will crush Patton with great verses, amazing flow and sick burns.

Patton, on the other hand, won’t take any offense at all and reply with puns. Just. So. Many. Puns.

Will Logan still win? Will the puns be enough to defeat him? Will he start using the power of puns too? Will this battle turn into a huge battle of puns? Will Patton have fun regardless of the result?

You decide on the answers to all of these questions, except for the last one. Because we all know Patton would enjoy some quality time with Logan.

_______________________________

The very normal vlog

This episode is a very normal vlog in which Thomas talks about very normal stuff happening in his life and the Core Sides comments/offers suggestions as always.

So Logan says Thomas should've remembered that doing X thing wasn't great. Thomas replies that it was an infinitesimal mistake.

Patton compliments Thomas with a pun. Thomas replies with another pun.

Roman tells Thomas they should strive for greater things. Thomas says that they should start by improving their acting skills.

Virgil reminds Thomas that trying new things can be challenging and he can fail. Thomas says that it won't be as bad as Virgil's make-up.

Virgil is caught off guard by this, but before he can comment, Thomas ends the episode and sends them all away. Only after the Sides disappeared, he said goodbye to his viewers and turned off the camera, only then he reveal himself as Janus.

Janus stretches, snaps his fingers and says he's still the best liar of all time, before leaving.

The episode ends with Thomas, who is still sleeping in his bed. He suddenly jolts up: "Oh my gosh", he yells, "I need to do a video!”

Bam, start intro.

_______________________________

The troll

An April fools episode titled “Am I the ASSHOLE???” and the whole video is over dramatic and makes fun of tropes, also is poorly shot.

This is the original post of @dillydallydove from which this person took the idea. And it's hilarious, I love it.

_______________________________

The most serious argument ever

A prequel episode set when Virgil was still one of the Dark Sides and centered on an argument they have.

You can choose whatever topic you want, but it should be the stupidest argument ever. And the dark boys should all act as if it’s the most important topic in the world, nothing is more important than this topic and nothing is more important than proving the others are ALL wrong.

Follows shenanigans, Janus pretending to mediate only to say something and add more fuel to the chaos, Virgil trying to prove his point with extra convoluted thoughts, Remus throwing stuff around only to add more chaos, Orange sending death threats.

Bonus points if they manage to set something on fire without matches.

_______________________________

Grocery shopping

Thomas going grocery shopping with his Sides.

Logan is in charge: he wants to put just healthy food in the cart.

Patton begs Logan for at least one single pack of cookies ("Thomas needs them, as a treat!").

Roman checks for the most aesthetically pleasing packages and the ones with the most promises, no matter how far-fetched they are ("Logan, this shampoo will make Thomas' hair fluent and shiny! And this cereal mix will make him taller! We must buy them!").

Virgil disappears for entire minutes, then comes back with a full emergency kit, a new alarm system, pepper spray and a blanket. When Logan asks him why, he replies that the safety stuff it's necessary, while the blanket is for him because it will help him stay calm, once Thomas starts handling this stuff.

Remus runs all over the grocery store, then comes back with different stuff: the first time with the biggest zucchini and carrots he can find, then with sticks and poles. Then, with all the different brands of condoms he can find. Then with lubricants. He says Thomas needs them and drops everything in the cart.

Janus pretends to help Logan, but also sneaks stuff behind other stuff: shorter boxes behind taller ones, chocolate chips under a bag of vegetables and so on. When Logan finds out, Janus picks a bottle of wine and puts it on the conveyor belt. Logan sighs and lets everything go.

Thomas, who went to the grocery store to buy one bag of apples, comes back home with a bag of carrots, a bag of zucchini, 2 boxes of cookies, 3 new shampoos, a pack of condoms, a new emergency kit, two cereal boxes, a blanket and a bottle of wine. And no apples.

_______________________________

The game night

The episode has the structure of a game show, in which every Side has to answer questions about the other Sides, in order to win an amazing prize.

Logan tries to use his intuition, but it doesn't always work.

Patton replies with kind, good, nice answers and everyone feels bad about telling him he's wrong, so he somehow wins.

Roman has no idea, so he drops the first thing that pops into his mind and fails miserably.

Virgil mumbles something, then says he doesn't know/it's stupid/he doesn't want to reply. Somehow, ends up second after Patton.

Janus straight out lies about everything and somehow he's right. But everyone refuses to acknowledge he's right.

Remus throws the most sexual ideas and argues about who has the longest dick. Somehow, he ends up being just one step above Roman. No one understands how, Roman first.

In the end, the amazing price was the last piece of pizza.

_______________________________

The "Sides' daily schedule" series

This can be a series of seven videos, in which every Side takes his time to tell us what they do during a normal day of their life.

Logan shows a perfectly organized schedule, down to the second. His routine includes cleaning, organizing, planning, working, writing, reading and a relaxing hobby: chemical reactions.

Remus sneaks in to be his lab assistant. The video ends up with them blowing up something.

Patton's schedule is more relaxed, made of sunshine, happiness, hours spent remembering the past, sad hours, more sad hours - but then Patton gets better, he gets out of his room and meets his friends. And plans a nice time for all of them.

The evening ends with Logan emptying a whole fire extinguisher on the barbecue, because somehow Patton set it on fire.

Roman starts his day by being his most marvelous self, removes his night-time beauty mask, makes his daycare routine, strikes poses, talks about how great he is, goes around slaying monsters and dueling... all in the morning. Then, he sits and the desk and works non-stop for 20 hours straight. Then, he gets up still with his marvelous self, says he has not been “very productive” and goes on a trip to slay more monsters and flirt with beautiful men in distress.

In the end, Remus has to stop him from working even more, by hitting him on the head. He throws Roman on his bed, throws the sheets on him but, before leaving, he never forgets to carefully put on Roman his night-time beauty mask.

Remus' video alternates between him starting to say something, to huge censored parts. Around half of the video, he loudly protests, because he's censored, even when he doesn't say anything sexual. His day includes pissing out Roman, messing with Logan's chemical stuff, obediently sitting and listening to Janus reading him a book, throwing stuff in a volcano, jumping in a river with piranha and 20 different sexual positions all censored.

Virgil's video shows him doing something peacefully, only to suddenly stop, look directly at the viewers and ask them questions. Like: he's peacefully knitting, then he stops, lifts his head and asks: did you turn the stove off? Is it still off? Or is it on? Is your house burning down? Will it burn down before you go to bed? Will you die in your bed?

The questions stop, to show us more of Virgil’s day and his different ways to relax. Some are heavy blankets and knitting, others are push-ups, running like a madman for hours, sleeping like a log, watching horror movies and doing make-up while listening to emo/rock music.

Janus' schedule is weird. The scene before he's walking, then it abruptly cuts to him knitting, then to him halfway into an explanation of a specific part of a book, to him explaining what he will eat. It looks like a series of scenes randomly put together.

Only in the end, we will find out he did it on purpose, because he has no intention of telling what he actually does. So he tells the viewers to have fun with what they have (which is basically nothing), while putting on a beauty mask, a glass of wine in his hand and relaxes into a bathtub.

_______________________________

The "Dressing like each other" series

This can easily end up in another series of videos, in which every Side raids the closet of one Side and they all dress up like him.

Logan's closet should include tons of shirts and lab coats, so they would all dress up like teachers or lab technicians. Roman hates it, Remus loves to dress as a mad scientist.

Patton's closet should include bright colors, funny hats, animal prints everywhere. Either they would dress up as animal lovers or as stereotypical fathers from the 50s. Janus searches everywhere for something that's not bright-colored. In the end, he fights Virgil for the only two gray clothes.

Roman's closet should include rich, embroidered dresses with beautiful details on every piece of fabric. They would end up dressed as members of the court or royalty, with matching, fabulous makeup. Virgil complains and calls it "extra and preppy", only to end up being fabulous.

Virgil's closet should include black, emo, laced dresses for everyone. Also, guyliner and leather/laced matching accessories. Roman complains and calls it "dark and gloomy", only to end up being fabulous.

Janus' closet should include black and yellow dresses, fancy hats, polished shoes and fancy accessories like golden pocket watches, handkerchiefs with embroidered initials and so on. Logan appreciates the formality, Roman the nice details. Virgil calls it "even more extra" and ends up being quite fabulous. (Janus refuses to acknowledge it)

Remus' closet should include the most insane, batshit stuff, possibly put together in the weirdest way. They could end up dressed entirely in fishnet clothes, rainbow clothes, silly costumes or the most baroque, heavy costume ever known to mankind. Also, a shit ton of accessories, wigs, makeup and everything you can think of. Somehow, Janus is the only one who manages to find a coordinated set.

_______________________________

And now, it's up to you!

Do you have more ideas for the Asides? Share them! The weirdest, the strangest, the better! :D

Ordem Paranormal x Sanders Sides that literally no one asked for

Let's get y'all up to speed. "Paranormal Order" (Or Ordem Paranormal) is a RPG tabletop game that has horror and puzzle-solving genre. Not much fighting but depends on the campaign. I won't info-dump here since that's not what I'm going through.

In OP, there are these things called elements/entities of the paranormal/whatever the occultist uses. And me, a categorizing nerd, I have placed each of the sides with one of the elements with explanations.

There are Five elements; Blood, Knowledge, Chaos, Death, and Fear.

Let's get the two obvious out of the way:

Patton: Blood

(*Dead stares at the camera*) This element is literally "Feelings". The blood that flows within the "Other Side". This entity is pleased by any intensity of feelings that it comes across... Come on, my guy, it makes sense. (As such as life, these things are like pokemon weakness/strength. Blood surpasses Knowledge)

Logan: Knowledge

(*continues dead stares at the camera*) "To know everything is to lose everything." A quote from the official book/wiki. Same with Patton, this doesn't really need an explanation. This entity is about discovering and learning about everything. Funny that; Knowledge overrides Chaos

And now the 2nd easiest

Remus: Chaos

(*Continues to dead stare*) Remus fits this entity to a T. It's unpredictability, the unfiltered energy that he gives off, and the unexplained nonsense he sometimes say out. Chaos is kinda built different, since it doesn't follow its own logic. Sometimes, Remus will help (in his own way) or sometimes he'll see how the shit goes out for his entertainment. Who knows. Only Remus does. Chaos shouts over Death

Our beloved Anxeity, Deceit, and pure, heroic Light Creativity... the three hardest I have to think about in terms of OP entities.

Virgil: Death

Don't let the word scare you. This Entity is about Time, mostly. It runs in the OP so everything in existence has a place to end. Every story has an ending and this entity is there to see. It. Through. The reason I put Virgil in Death is purely because the others don't show anything like it? Someone can research and try to connect the dots that my brain is trying to connect. Death in OP already has a black/gray color scheme. Death overpowers Blood

Roman: Death

Roman was originally put with Remus into Chaos, but the more I think about it, the more Death seems to fit him a bit more. Roman doesn't have the chaotic energy that either has. But, according to the wiki, Death entity revolves things around itself. Telling things that there's a limit and there's more things to do. Kinda reminds me of that one video, yeah? Death ignores Blood

Janus: Blood and/or Knowledge

You thought I would put Janus in Fear? Nah, Janus is a wild card, same with the other two above. In OP, you can switch elements but kinda have to stick with one. I'm stuck between the two entities for Janus, without making him into a monster. Blood, sure, emotions but it's where he kinda need it and Knowledge (Ignoring that Knowledge entity is known for being yellow) the vibe of it fits the darn snake. I'll let yall do your research if you've read this far. Janus is so hard to categorize without his literal reason of existence.

BONUS:

(c!)Thomas Sanders: Fear

Purely, because, Fear is the entity that powers all the other elements. Without it, the "Other Side" won't function. But no person can get Fear and continue being sane. For all I know, putting Fear in him would make him a monster so the protagonists of the campaign have a reason to gain victory.

Poor lil Sides, what happens if you have to kill Thomas yourselves? Hm? What a tasty idea...

(If anyone in the Ordem Paranormal fandom seein' this, uh, shut up)

#gods nobody stfu #sanders sides #thomas sanders #ordem paranormal #nobody talks #I did this for Alice in Borderlands but that's not as tasty thought as ordem paranormal #where LITRLY ALL OF MY FAVE CHARACTERS DIE #LOOK #IF YOU LIKE THIS KINDA OF SHENIGANS #THE HORROR AND THE OCCULTISM THING #ORDEM PARANORMAL IS YOUR GUY #But you gotta know that it's in protaguses #gods I have no auto correct #but still give it a shot

As Sovereign of Thomceit, I've come to ask a very important question......... Janus why on earth aren't you looking after your son he has two dads right there???? Sir???? /hj

No but really, would y'all like to raise Jake?? How would you feel about having a kiddo??

~🌺

"Who's Jake?"

"Well, I'm not sure we're looking to have kids yet and as much as I love kids, I haven't decided if I want any of my own someday or not. I really like being a godfather and uncle. I still think I want to start out with a dog first, but gosh, even that's a commitment I'm not sure on at the moment. I do think Janus would make a great dad. To a puppy or a human."

I Wish (Prinxiety)

This goes out to everyone craving some Prinxiety like I am.

TW: mild panic, spoilers for the latest Asides, mention of a bad breakup

Part 2 here!

--------

“One more chance at happiness..... squandered.” Roman sighed, his expression going dark. “It’s probably for the best.” Virgil looked at Thomas, who was watching the cute guy walk away, then at Roman. He knew he needed to do something. Things hadn’t been great since the last episode, and this was the first time he had seen Roman truly excited about something in months. Virgil felt his breath quicken and his mind race, but he pushed his body toward Thomas and shoved him right towards the cutie.

And they began to talk. Virgil began to take deep breaths, zoning out a bit. Then he heard the cute guy speak.

“...My. Gosh. You should have just said hi!” Virgil and Roman froze.

“O-oh, yeah?” Thomas stuttered.

“Yeaah... I had writers block anyway.” Virgil smiled to himself as Thomas and the cutie, who’s name was apparently Nico Florres, continued their conversation. Now he could focus on his breathing. There was a lot of nervous laughter. Then, Nico smiled, picked up the Karrot King bag, and said, “Well, let’s not waste this one.” Roman’s eyes lit up and a wide, excited grin spread across his blushing face.

“Shut up.”

“Shut up!” Virgil turned to watch the scene before him. “Thank you.” Virgil turned to Roman, startled by his words.

“Uh, you’re welcome, I guess? In all honesty, I really don’t know what that was.” Roman stared at him, huffed a bit, and placed his hand on Virgil’s shoulder. Then he smiled softly, eyes shining, like he always did when they were dating. And, just like those old times, before Roman even knew Virgil’s name, Virgil’s stomach erupted with butterflies.

“Bravery.” Virgil’s face flushed, and he huffed a bit, flustered.

“What? No. I--I--”

“Shut up, emo,” Roman said affectionately. They turned to watch Thomas and Nico again, Roman’s hand still on Virgil’s shoulder.

***

Virgil smiled at Roman and Thomas. “I’m gonna head up to my room. I’ll see you guys later.” Thomas and Roman smiled and waved.

“Bye, Virgil!”

“See you soon, Gerard Gay!” Virgil chuckled and sunk out. He did love that particular nickname. He sighed as he flopped onto his bed, smiling at the ceiling. He then sat up and slid off the bed, then lifted the mattress. He pulled a small photo album off the slats and sat on the floor with it, flipping through the photos. He smiled at all the images of him and Roman together, holding hands, sharing gentle cheek kisses, and doing various romantic things in the Imagination. In all of them, he was wearing his old hoodie, and in a few of them, his eyeshadow was very sparkly purple. He’d almost forgotten it could do that.

He missed Roman. Their breakup had been pretty bad, and then they hadn’t really interacted for years before Virgil’s first appearance in Sanders’ Sides, though it still hurt every time he’d heard Roman mutter, “Ugh, this guy,” or, “I don’t like him,” under his breath. But things had gotten.... better. And today was proof of that. “I wish.....” Virgil whispered under his breath. What did he wish for? Roman back? Did he?

He could think of a million reasons why that couldn’t happen. Things were actually okay between them, and Virgil didn’t want to screw it up, he didn’t know if Roman and Janus were still a thing, he didn’t know if Roman missed him, too, and what’s to say that if he did, and they got back together, things wouldn’t end exactly the way they did before, and push Roman away from him forever, etc., etc.

“I wish....” What did he wish for?

***

Roman sighed, resting his head on his desk. He smiled as he thought about that afternoon at the mall. And Nico! Nico, Nico, Nico! He could see bright things in Thomas’s future. Romantic things. Roses. Kisses in the rain. Dinner in France. He glanced at the picture frame in front of him. It was laying upside down on its flat side. He turned it over and sat up. He studied the photo of him and Janus kissing under the door to his bedroom in the rain that night they went on a walk in the Imagination and Roman thought it would be romantic for them to be drenched. He removed that photo to reveal one of him and Virgil. Virgil was in his old hoodie, sleeping on Roman’s shoulder after a long day of getting Thomas through high school. He smiled. Those days had been the best. Virgil’s eyeshadow was often a brilliant, glittery purple like it was today. Roman had missed seeing it. He missed Virgil. “I wish,” Roman sang softly. What did he wish for? Virgil to come back? To try and fix all the mistakes they’d made when they were together?

He could think of a million reasons why that couldn’t happen. The one at the very front of his mind was that he and Janus hadn’t technically broken up yet. Even if they hadn’t spoken in five months. But the thing with that was, Janus called every night still. At first, he’d left long, teary voicemails apologizing endlessly and begging Roman to call back. He’d also texted Roman constantly, looking for some sort of reassurance that Roman was safe and taking care of himself. Roman had thought about texting him back and saying that he couldn’t talk to Janus right now, but that would mean he had to talk to him, and he couldn’t do that. Eventually, the texting stopped, and the voicemails turned into two sentence summaries of what had happened that day and a request that Roman call him back.

And, like clockwork, Roman’s phone rang, and, like he expected, it was Janus. He stared at it a moment, then sighed and picked it up.

“Hey,” he said.

“Roman, thank God you’re alive! But what the hell? Why didn’t you answer my calls? Or my texts? Couldn’t you have let me know you were at least safe, even if you weren’t really okay?”

“I didn’t think you cared that much,” Roman spat, anger rising in him. Mostly towards Janus, but also at himself, because even after five months, he wasn’t ready for this, and he knew that, but he had answered anyway. He sighed. “Look, Janus, I’m sorry, but I’m going to go now. I shouldn’t have taken your call.”

“Wait. Please.” Roman sighed, but stayed on the line. “I’m really, really sorry about what I said five months ago. I know how much you hate being compared to Remus, and I had no excuse to lash out the way I did, especially with the way things had been going.”

“I know,” Roman said. “But it doesn’t change anything.”

“I know.” Janus’s voice broke, and Roman felt tears welling up in his eyes. Wasn’t it enough that he cried himself to sleep every night? “What are we going to do now?” Roman hesitated.

“I--” He tried to hold back the tears, but they fell anyway. “I’m sorry, I--”

“Shh, don’t apologise. It’s okay. Call me when you’re ready, okay?”

“I don’t know if I’ll ever be. Bye, Janus.”

“Are you breaking up with me?”

“.... Yeah. I think so.”

“O-okay. I’ll see you around.” Roman hung up. He covered his face and sobbed. “I wish.” What did he wish for?

Across the hallway, Virgil and Roman both sat in their rooms, the emotions weighing them down indescribable. “I wish,” they both said at the same time, unbeknownst to them.

“I wish Virgil/Roman and I hadn’t broken up.”

good news, sluts! my brain's no longer being completely stupid (only mostly), i've seen the new asides and...have some thought-y thot thoughts:

*deep inhale*

Okay, first things first: this art style is soooo fucking cUTE and I'm a jealous, squealing bitch. Anyone who knows who the artist is, could you link me to them, stat? I think Thomas mentioned them at the beginning of the ep, but nYeh, brain hurt, doesn't wanna do wooork-

Okay, I'll admit, I was a little...apprehensive when I first saw the thumbnail and title. Part of it's just me being a bitter Remus Stan, but also...okay, deep breaths, controversial opinion time, get ready:

I don't ship Prinxiety.

Like, at all.

I can see the appeal, and these dorks were so very, VERY cute in this particular ep, but I was honestly turned off by the ship long ago due to how overwhelmingly popular it is and how some fans characterize these two and treat this relationship as if it's the only valid one, y'know, the works—slight tangent, but that's also why I don't ship Logicality or Remile. I honestly vibe much better with ships like Roceit or Analogical, y'know?

Cutting in for another brief tangent: I'm surprisingly okay with Demus/Dukeceit/Receit/Trashnoodle/Whatever-Their-Ship-Name-Is-Oh-God-Why-Do-They-Have-So-Many-Fucking-Names; maybe it's cause they haven't actually interacted in canon and the fan content gives me such good Gay Disney Villain content, idk man im weird—).

Still, their interactions were both hilarious and sweet and like I said, I see the appeal, it's just not my cup of tea. y'all Prinxiety fans got fucking FED and I'm happy for you nerds. Enjoy ze happy boys!

I guess another factor in my...low-key hesitance when I first saw what the ep was about is that...okay, get ready, another controversial opinion, le gasp: well, I'm not a big Virgil fan. In fact, at times, he swaps places with Patton as my least favorite sides—especially with some of his recent behavior in eps like DWIT (the "prohibit your breathing comment" really triggered me, for example). Sometimes, his attitude, especially around other sides like Roman or Janus, reminds me a little too much of my sister, who I don't have...a very good relationship with. Add to that how the more...intense side of the fandom has a disturbing tendency to turn him into the 'uwu precious woobie emo baby who can do no wrong' while unnecessarily villainizing other CERTAIN sides in the process, and...I think you all see where I'm going with this little rant 😅

However, upon actually watching the ep, he wasn't...that bad? I don't think? I enjoyed watching him be a flustered, disaster-y mess and genuinely excited at the end, his interactions with Roman were nice enough, and him literally pushing Thomas to make a move with Nico despite his obvious panic attack was a nice moment of genuine character development. I like seeing that, that's the good shit right there. And him being all flustered and shit, and smiling so much at the end of the vid was just...well, adorable. This man has no fucking right to be this cute, my god

alsoooo

pURPLE EYESHADOW

PURPLE EYESHADOW HE LOOKS?? SO GOOD?? WTF?? SLAY EMO, SLAAAAAAAY FUCK, DOES THIS MEAN I HAVE TO CHANGE MY HALLOWEEN COSTUME NOW?

alsoooo

hAPPY ROMAN

YESSSSS~ MAH BOI MAH SON MAH DUMB BITCH HIMBO PRINCE MAH EXTRA MESSY CINNAMON ROLL

ITS BEEN SO LONG

AND HIS LITTLE HEART EYES THROUGHOUT THE VID, OH MY GOD-

IMMA JUST IGNORE THAT "ADDING [MISTAKE] TO THE LIST" COMMENT I AM LOOKING AWAY I DO NOT SEE IT LALALALALA

THOMATHY, SIR, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT MAKING THESE TWO GAY IDIOTS SO BAEBY

Okay, but Virgil not realizing that "cyberstalking in real life" is literally just stalking is both a big ass mood and further proof that, yes, Logan is indeed the only one holding the braincell out of this disaster of a lot. God help them all if he ducks out in the next ep.

👀

And Thomas x Trash Can is my new OTP. I dub thee ✨ "Trashmas" ✨

we sTAN TRASHMAS

Wait, does that mean Remus actually WAS in the ep? Cause, y'know, trash man?

hmmm

👀 👀

Okay, okay.

With how much Virgil and Roman were going off about Thomas constantly lying, I was (understandably) a tad bit disappointed my snek son didn't even make a fucking cameo, but y'know what? In hindsight, I'm okay with this it's fineee~

He was just off playing with shadow puppets and stealing money from us desperate, content-starved peasants with his sheer extra-ness and, honestly? Gotta respect the hustle.

Get that precious, precious coin, dapper snake! Wring us poor losers dryyyy!

*evil snek laugh*

Also, this is a breather ep and adding Janus in probably would've caused unnecessary drama with the Roceit breakup and the constant antagonism between Virgil and him. It probably would've distracted from the point of the ep (flirting with social anxiety, exactly what it says in the tin)—much like it wasn't really Virgil or Remus's place to show up during POF. Does that make sense? I think it makes sense. Sorry, brain going brr-

Still, I can't believe the "Fuck Janus Sanders" Club is actually canon now 😂

God, first Patton in a skirt and now this.

Thomas Sanders, you delight in fucking feEDING this gremlin nest of a fanbase, don’t you? You RELISH our screams of joy and pain and suffering, dON’T YOU?

What's next, actual canonical Janus and Remus interaction? Patton saying the fuck word? The Dragon Witch comes back? Janus's bowler hat gains sentience and takes over the world, Doris-style? What do you have planned, Thomas? Joan? WHAT ART THOU PLANNING, I MUST KNOW YOU HEATHENS YOU FIENDS-

And Virgil's little "would it be fair to him" comment, tho.

👀

Like, I get in the context of the ep, he was likely talking about Nico and how it wouldn’t be good for a potential relationship with Tomas to be founded on lies, but still...my anxceit heart aches, man.

Gimme that sweet, sweet angst with a side of mutual regret and possible future reconciliation and maybe something more wink wink nudge nudge on top, pls

...and fries.

Honestly, tho, that entire bathroom monologue was fucking beautiful, man. And relatable, too—i can't tell you how many times I've talked to myself in public restrooms because I just didn't know how to get the words I wanted to say out. It's...kind of embarrassing, tbh

Speaking of embarrassing, uh, crying stall guy.

Just...

Crying Stall Guy

Like, I was expecting someone to come out the bathroom stall after Thomas stopped talking, but...I honestly wasn't expecting that. God, that whole scene was so cringe worthy and fucking hilarious

Honestly, Thomas in the ep in general was a huge ass mOOD and we collective gay/bi disasters ALL related with him, and if you say you don't, you're either lying to yourself or a demon.

There is no in between

sorry I don't make the rules

Like, I get this series is literally a gay disaster talking to himself for thirty minutes or longer, but like- EMPHASIS on the 'disaster' part 😂

Like...Thomas, you're lucky you're such a goddamn bean, because GOD, I cringing so hard when he first started talking to Nico

Although, I too have apologized profusely for genuine mistakes and am a flustered bi mess around my crush sooo

😅

And god, Roman's "thirty = old man" jokes made me feel old...and I literally just turned twenty, like, come on, man!

Maybe that's because I was literally watching this ep after finishing my ACT and had been sitting with a bunch of high schoolers, with their tiny fucking desks and tiny fucking water fountains smeh

*clears throat*

Anyways, uh, we STAN Nico Pintrovert Florés in this house

He gives me such big Carlos from WTNV vibes for some reason and this makes me sooo happy

and YESS, he's a WRITER

And he's??? So sweet?? A pure bean?? Just sits on his laptop at the mall food court all day, like a god-fucking iCON?? A Nightmare Before Christmas fan?? weARS GLASSES??

my hEART

*cries*

The fandom seems torn between "Nicomas" and "Karrot Kings" as a ship name atm—personally speaking, I'm casting my vote for the latter

*crosses fingers* please dont be another janus x remus multiple ship name issue guys, please please please I can't keep track of them all-

*clears throat*

On that note, I'm guess I'm gonna go try and whoo over my crush with carrots now. If THIS disaster can do it and make it actually fucking work, god damnit, so cAN I

Meanwhile, in hell, my brain's just screaming "CANON LOVE INTEREST CANON LOVE INTEREST CANON LOVE INTEREST-"

God, I hope Nico isn't just a one-shot character, he's too pure and Thomas and him are adorable gay Disney fans and I stan

Oh, I wonder how the other sides'll react to him.

Wait.

Oh god.

This ep just unleashed a new fresh hell of potential Nico x Sides ships, hasn't it?

Welp, time to prepare for ze incoming flood of fanfics, I guess. I'll get my umbrella and rain boots.

That last shot of Virgil during the endcard was so fucking ominous oh my god mom im scared can you come pick me up-

Goddammit, Thomas and Joan, I'm NOT fucking ready to be traumatized again, fUCK

I wish I wasn't a broke ass university student so I could contribute to Thomas's gloriously extra Patreon—both so I can support my favorite content creators who make this amazing blessed content and also, to join my boi Janus in fucking destroying society by giving money to the people who actually deserve it, fuck YOU GOVERNMENT-

Okay.

New headcanon time as to why Patton, Remus, and Logan weren't in the ep: they were helping Jan film that Patreon promotional video.

Remus directed it, Logan helped with the lighting and script, and Patton was just there as the cheerleader.

The reason Janus made a dog with shadow puppets wasn't just to flaunt his deity status and prove how he is truly above us mere wretched mortals

despite that being the absolute truth and we all know it, don't lie to yourselves

No, it was really him trying to do something cute and silly for Patton, because Moceit rights, daMMIT

*inhales*

noww

guys, gals, and nonbinary pals

it’s time forr

the most wonderful time of the yearrr

WAITING FOR THE NEXT EPISODE

Step right up, folks! Hear ye, hear ye, my prediction for the next episode: Prinxiety v. Moceit! With special guest stars: Karrot Kings vibing in adorable gay and Intrulogical, bitter at being excluded aGAIN

Who will win? Who will lose?

here’s a hint: we all will because in this sick twisted game they are no winners only losers-

Place your bets, folks! ✨

Haha im not readyyy~

tl;dr

this episode has cleared my skin, watered my crops, and ended my suffering—an adorable calm before the... angsty fucking shitstorm that’s coming far too soon. Prinxiety stans, enjoy your food. Place an 'F' in the chat for me and my fellow grieving Remus stans. Trashmas is the true OTP, but Karrot Kings is cute too I guess. I've only had Nico Florés for 24 minutes, but if anything happens to him, I'll kill everyone in this room and then myself. Purple eyeshadow Virgil makes me question my sexuality aGAIN, and happy gay disney prince rights y'all. Say a big ole 'fuck you' to capitalism by giving your local dapper snake moneys. Concussion makes brain go brr and imma go buy some carrots and be gay now.

psst hey @quarantinevibes2020 you wanna join me in being disaster-y? i’ll bring my best gay stare and you bring the wine

Until next time, my lovelies! ~ Ches 🖤

Logan's Dark Side (Theory)

With all the excitement going around about the identity and name of a new Dark Side, I've seen several posts speculating about what Logan’s Dark Side may be, and I present five options.

One: Logan’s Dark Side is Deceit. Think about it. I don't believe there has been confirmation by Thomas himself on Patton and Deceit being “opposites”, so to speak. Deceit represents false information. Who gives information? That's right: Logan, or Logic. You may be wondering: “who is Patton's Dark Side, if it's not Deceit?” And to that, I present two options.

Patton's Dark Side is the mysterious orange Side, the one we haven't seen yet. While this is the more likely option and fits the color theory more than number two does, I think what would be cooler is…

Virgil is Patton's Dark Side. I've heard that Thomas has said there are three Light Sides, three Dark Sides, and one Neutral Side. You're most likely thinking: “shouldn't Virgil be the Neutral Side?” And I will not deny that that is possible. However, Patton is, among other things, Thomas’s feelings. You know what's also a feeling? Anxiety. Virgil is the fear you feel, the worry that claws at your chest when you walk across the street, or when you think about opening up to someone, or when you talk to a person you just met. Virgil would represent fear while Patton would be in charge of Thomas's other emotions. This would allow the orange side to be the Neutral one.

Two: Logan's Dark Side is “Frustration”. I'll be honest, this is the least likely one that he'll be, but it's a possibility nonetheless. Logan has already shown himself to become angry when he feels he isn't being listened to or taken seriously. Frustration would simply be an amplified version of that. Frustration would be what Logan feels when things aren't logical, when things don't make sense, when things are complicated and complex and he doesn't understand.

Three: Logan's Dark Side is “Apathy”. I know, I know, you're probably thinking that I copied this idea off of @parano--vigilant, and while their video certainly added to my theory, I've actually had the theory for a while now, and far before I saw the video. Apathy would be the coldness, the uncaringness, that one may feel when making logical choices. Apathy would be the sort of “ends justify the means”, and while he would look at the bigger picture a lot of the time, he would ignore the hurt he is inflicting on others while he does things. He doesn't care. He can't care.

Four: Logan’s Dark Side is “Repression”. Repression is a topic that has been brought up frequently in the Sanders Sides series, which I feel may be hinting at something. Repression shows up in every character. Virgil and Remus have been repressed, Deceit is part of the “this isn't happening, I'm fine, nothing is wrong” mindset, which is a part of repression, Roman has repressed his insecurities and outright ignores when he is hurting, Patton has repressed his negative feelings, and Logan has repressed all feelings whatsoever. Repression is the mastermind, sitting in the shadows, whispering false comforts of how everything will be fine. Repression is the puppet master, stringing along the others and causing them to lash out in anger and sadness because of the pent up pain that's been inside them for so long. Repression is Logan's Dark Side because of how he says things that should be logical, but in reality, aren't. Repression is the most dangerous Dark Side.

Five: Logan's Dark Side is Virgil himself. Virgil is overthinking things, giving off information that could be true but is also so utterly irrational it's unlikely, but the possibility’s still there. Virgil is the paranoia one feels when they don't know enough about a subject, when they are simply left to imagine with their mind. Virgil is the fear of something one doesn't understand, and that is the most terrifying thing of all. Virgil is Paranoia, and Logan is the logical one explaining how it's most likely fine.

Of course, it's all up to Thomas, Joan, and the others, but if one of these theories turn out to be right? Hoooo boy, I just might scream.
