#Protective Virgil

[tentacle-therapissed]

IMO the fanon interpretation of the Dark Sides’ dynamic ignores the fascinating canon implications that they’re more like forced family than anything resembling found family. These are three characters who genuinely do not seem to get along— at the very least, Virgil has made it clear that his function as a Side does not mesh well with either Janus or Remus’s functions, and the moment he saw an opportunity to be accepted by the others he ditched them with absolutely no remorse or lingering attachment. Meanwhile the dubiously canon interactions Janus has with Remus come off as him putting up with Remus’s antics simply because what else is he going to do? The most friendly the two of them ever get is when they’re collaborating to screw with c!Thomas— it’s like they’re coworkers who have nothing else in common besides their overlapping goals. The three currently introduced ‘Dark Side’ characters are united only in the fact that they were all outcasts. ‘The Dark Sides’ isn’t even a meaningful phrase, it’s something Roman came up with on the spot to lump together all the Sides that were too complicated and ambiguous to be part of the OG triad. Virgil doesn’t even use the phrase ‘Dark Sides’, he specifically made the point to call Remus and Janus ‘the others’ instead. He knows he used to be part of That group but it wasn’t because he actually identified with them, it’s because everyone else grouped him with them and until AA—maybe even until Fitting In— he thought his only option was to double down on being an antagonist and collaborate with the other ‘antagonist’ Sides no matter how uneasy they made him.

The Dark Sides are those roommates with no prior history who weren’t able to change their contract in time. They’re the students who got put in a group project together and have wildly different ideas on how to approach the material. They’re the only remaining members of a dying club trying desperately to find some reason to keep hanging out together so the club doesn’t die. They’re the kids who all got detention on the same day and figured talking to each other was better than complete solitude. They’re the inhabitants of that one abandoned lunch table in the back of the cafeteria because no other table will take them.

#i do think there’s a level of protectiveness Janus feels for Remus and even Virgil because again their one commonality is that they all #represent parts of c!Thomas that he doesnt want to accept. aka stuff he’s in denial about. which Janus therefore wants him to confront #but its like a ‘hey! don’t dismiss these guys because they’re a part of you whether you like it or not’ #instead of a ‘hey! don’t dismiss these guys cause they’re my buds’ #sanders sides #the dark sides #sanders sided analysis #virgil sanders #ts virgil #janus sanders #ts janus #remus sanders #ts remus

Patton makes bracelets

Headcannon Patton makes all of the sides friendship bracelets they have a colour representing each of them and look like an 8 year old made them BUT he makes sure to hand-give them out to everyone with like the biggest smile :3

Logan and Virgil would seem unimpressed but wear it religiously, every day, no matter what. Roman would wear it every day but lose it after about 2 weeks. Janus would say "thank you SO much, I'm so impressed by the fine craftsmanship, I can tell you spent SO long on it" and wear it around is ankle every day. Patton never finds out he still wears it all the time. Remus eats it the second Patton turns around.

“When you lov- care for someone not much hurts more than their scorn”

VIRGIL LOVED THEM ALL FROM EPISODE ONE

This little shit

loved them and was just putting up a villainous font so he could protect them from the real dangers. Cause that’s the only way he knew how to keep them safe. Even though it came at the cost of them loving him back.

Ugh. The drama. The angst.

#I need cannon to address this more #it’s such an angsty concwpt #playing the villain to protect ppl u LOVE #virgil sanders #sanders sides #and now he’s bffs with the guy he used to be enemies with #he’s still a bitch tho <3

Léon Cogniet (1794-1880) "Métabus et Camille" In Virgil's Aeneid, Camilla is the daughter of King Metabus and Casmilla. Driven from his throne, Metabus is chased into the wilderness by armed Volsci, his infant daughter in his hands. The river Amasenus blocked his path, and, fearing for his child's welfare, Metabus bound her to a spear. He promised Diana that Camilla would be her servant, a warrior virgin. He then safely threw her to the other side, and swam across to retrieve her. The baby Camilla was suckled by a mare, and once her "first firm steps had [been] taken, the small palms were armed with a keen javelin; her sire a bow and quiver from her shoulder slung." She was raised in her childhood to be a huntress and kept the companionship of her father and the shepherds in the hills and woods.

This benjamin mendy thing is honestly so disgusting with all the footballers supporting him like?? This is why a lot of women are afraid of coming out. Even before he was proven innocent, crusty ass boys still supported him. And I've seen a lot of comments of people saying "this is why you shouldn't date these women date black women" blah blah.. are you saying black women will take the sexual assault and disrespect from you ugly ass players and not report it? Do you think this is uplifting us? It's not. It's gross AF! death to everyone fr.

Logan is protective of Virgil :)

#sanders sides #analogical #tss logan #tss virgil #I love ddlc x sanders sides comparisons #this is canon because I said so #I’m hoping for more Virgil and Logan interactions #also protective Logan :D

Lime lime lime I’m obsessed with so many of your stories. But also what is everyone’s approximate ages in tktsaaiw ? I’m so thinking about it

i don't have specific set ages from them, but i've personally been envisioning them as in their twenties, and not all that far apart from each other. i do know that patton's the oldest (group dad), roman is the youngest, and logan has been in space the longest.

#logan and patton both prioritize doing what they can to protect roman (youngest and newest to their situation) #but really they all try to look after each other #inb4 i make an au where ampen virgil gets taken hostage by a gaggle of teenagers #tktsaaiw teoba au <- noise i make after i stub my toe real hard #im just making keysmashes at this point #asks #tktsaaiw #anonymous #if you have age theories and propositions of your own that's also fine #my policy is if i dont mention it directly in story you can believe whatever you'd like #whatever sparks joy even #that's why there's 30 different designs for the alien cast :) #queue

Virgil getting drunk at a party and Remus having to give him a piggy back ride back home

And Virgil is in a black dress (it was Remus’s idea)

So rem was death glaring dudes who got to close

Oh Ree would sock the shit out of anyone if they even dared got close to Vee especially when his Emo's intoxicated (Bullshitting the chaotic mustached man with the 'Asking for a dance' card only makes it worse especially when Vee's taken and Ree knows how parties are) Once Ree takes him back home he makes sure he puts him in comfy pajamas and when morning rises and the hangover kicks in for Vee his ball of chaos makes sure to take care of him until he's feeling better

*Roman and Remus showing up late for the royal rumble medieval-style battle they planned for all the sides to participate in in the imagination*

Logan: So, you’ve finally arrived to your own… battle… what the hell are you both wearing?

(Remus & Roman are both in their skirts)

Remus: It’s our ass-kicking outfits, bitch!

Roman: Battle skirts mean we S L A Y

(Both strike a pose)

Virgil: Oh god, we’re gonna lose, aren’t we? How much is this gonna hurt?

Patton: Now now, I’m sure it’ll be fine! Like playing DnD, right? We can’t really get injured right? … Right?

Remus: Oh, I took safe mode off Poppacorn! There will be blood!

Janus: Wonderful, I so wanted to ruin my new caplet.

Logan: Sigh.

Roman: Get ready boys! Weapons up!

Virgil: Shit shit shiiiiittttttt

Patton: Language! AAAAHHHH *charges ahead of everyone*

Remus: *beaming with pride*

Logan: Huh. Fatherly protection instincts. Fascinating.

Patton: *covered in slime* No problem kiddos! I love you all SO MUCH *continues fighting*

Roman: Guys, who else is getting a little crush on Patton right now?

The Rest: Uh huh. Yep. Agreed.

a student of mine brought her best friend's sketchbook for me to see today. it was at the bestie's request, because she was my student almost five years ago. back in the day she was an 8-year-old drawing mostly poop and toilet paper rolls, but she enjoyed drawing and after the first time I showed interest on it she started showing me more of what she drew.

she's getting so good at it. she's been clearly studying anatomy though she still tends towards less realistic styles. she draws little comics about her and her best friend's ocs. she's been exploring other mediums too, like watercolors instead of just pencil.

now I'm sitting here and holding back my tears because I am so, so proud. I remember sitting with her after class a handful of times because she had a new drawing to show me. once or twice we stayed late because she missed her mom and she just needed to cry about it, and we chatted about what she'd been drawing while we waited for her grandma to pick her up.

I don't think she remembers any of it, and it's okay. I'm just so glad she didn't quit it. and I'm so thankful that she trusted me not to be a dickish adult about it. she's even been open, they both have, about the fact that they're on that teenage girl into gay ships phase. they had no way of knowing I'm queer, because talking about anything lgbt+ is a no-no, but they trusted me anyway.

I hope it all means I've been doing something right. and I hope I get to see other sketchbooks as she progresses.

#virgil chats #i wish i were more like her #i miss that teenage bravery #you know? #they don't care because it's just fun #life takes that away from you so quick #gods are my witness I will fight tooth and nail to protect that innocence as long as I'm able #my kids will be kids if I have a say in it #I refuse to diminish their accomplishments #and I refuse to treat their interests as lesser than #I am many things but I will not be the adults I had in my life growing up #and I'm confident I can relearn to be that carefree #I trust that they'll teach me

Logan- Adaine

Patton- Gorgug

Roman- Fabian

Virgil- Fig

Janus- Riz

Remus- Kristen

#fantasy high #sanders sides #i would be willing to switch fig and riz because fig’s whole thing is about being a liar and pretending to be other people #and riz definitely has some kind of anxiety disorder #but going on vibes i just think riz is very smart and cunning like janus and i think fig is very unpredictable and protective like virgil #so either or
