I can’t find it but I think there was a public livestream where Thomas said something like he can’t choose a favourite side to play because he loves them all in different ways, and then called them all his babies—
like, genuinely when you love your OCs this much—
it was just so sweet!🥹

Logan time!! *smacks him with a metal bat*
Personal headcanons/design things:
The de-facto leader of the sides. Although Character!Thomas is mostly governed by his morality and creativity, Logan is the best at keeping the peace and good relations amongst all the sides. Even before Virgil joined he had amicable relations with the dark sides. Friendly? No. Practical? Yes.
You know what? Yeah. I’ll get a little silly with it. He helped Remus and Janus orchestrate the whole “send Virgil over to the Light Side” thing; He understands those sides of Thomas are sides that are repressed and Repression! Isn’t! Healthy!
Patton thinks that he’s the Get Along Guy but really it’s Logan. Patton has weird standards on who is and isn’t “acceptable” (which change drastically later). But initially Logan is the one holding this Whole thing together and he’s holding it all with twine and scotch tape. He’s endlessly tired.
He and Janus are playing chess and everyone else is playing checkers. In that vein, he also views Janus as an intellectual contemporary (though he begrudgingly finds Patton helpful to discuss thought experiments with as well).
Has a mini fridge in his room filled with triple shots.
Has an info-binder on the other sides—their likes/dislikes etc…
He’s extremely observant.
Always stands like he’s giving a presentation 💀
2nd tallest of the sides, after Virgil.
His room has The Archives (copies of all school notes/info Thomas has ever learned)…Every few years or so he does File Closing (shredding) of any info that hasn’t been pulled on in that time. It’s like the burning of Alexandria to him.
He has a very meticulous file system (it’s analog).
Has a 1990’s style computer. It has one game and that game is chess.
I believe in side solidarity so he also enjoys hosting DND one offs with Roman sometimes (Something something combo of imagination and strategy).
One time Remus got ahold of Logan’s sacred Tumbler Cup and refilled it with something absolutely vile. He has not attempted to do so since.
Now I don’t think Logan knows exactly what the dark sides are per se (in terms of their additions aside from Janus—, or what causes them) but he has his suspicions (something something dehumanization).
Somehow has a connection to the Orange side???

So uh... any other TSS fans know REPO! The Genetic Opera?
Anyways, after two and a half years I’ve finally finished this comic! Drawing the original 9 pages and then having to re-draw them all took up most of that time lol

I adore the fact that Virgil actively likes horror media; As a horror lover with anxiety it just makes so much sense to me. Sometimes when I’m in a panic I need an equally stimulating distraction to pull me out of it. It’s like what Logan said about how it’s easier to give your focus to something than take it away from something else; When my anxiety is busy freaking out over supernatural demons it’s not focused on the actual real life problems that would otherwise be overwhelming me. There’s also something comforting about being in a controlled environment where you are actively choosing to feed into your anxiety and letting it contribute to the experience, kind of adjacent to the thrill of a roller coaster ride or the butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling when you’re around your crush.

Y'all ever get obsessed with a fandom despite never interacting with the original thing and basing your understanding of it purely off of what the common consensus among the fandom is?
And then, years later, your brain decides to briefly get obsessed with it again, but instead of going and watching the original content, you just base everything off of your now even more vague understanding of canon? And then, eventually, you end up just creating your own thing that's slightly based on the original concept?
Yeah, that's me with Sanders Sides right now
Anyways, here's some doodles

Plants
Anxceit (Virgil x Janus) Hypnovember 2020 Day Twelve: Plants Warnings: hypnosis, fingering, overstimulation
"I insist," Janus says, petting the side of Virgil's face. Virgil grits his teeth at the action, but lets Janus caress him anyway. "Let me brew you some tea. I'll make a nice big pot, and by the time it's nearly empty I promise you'll feel better." 
Virgil mutters something bitterly under his breath. 
"It won't be gross," Janus assures him. "Here. I'll make some, and you can try a cup. If you don't like it, you don't have to drink it. Does that sound okay?" 
Virgil looks down, frowning, before eventually mumbling "whatever." 
Janus kisses the top of his hair and then heads off into the kitchen, leaving Virgil sitting on the edge of the couch, anxiously bouncing his leg while the television show on in the background blends into a slew of ambience. 
He stares at the screen, but the pictures meld together into one headache-inducing slurry of light. His chest hurts. He feels like he's suffocating. 
Suddenly, a loud whistle from the kitchen causes him to jump, followed by a clatter as Janus presumably moves the kettle from the lit stove to an empty space, allowing it a few seconds to cool. Then, Janus comes out of the kitchen holding a cup of steaming hot tea. He hands it to Virgil with a soft warning, and then kneels in front of him. 
It's a rare sight seeing Janus on his knees, but Janus seems content resting his cheek against Virgil's thighs and staring up at him as Virgil slowly lifts the cup to his lips. 
Virgil only takes a small sip before warmth begins to flood through his body. 
"Eating or drinking when you're anxious can help calm you down," Janus explains, voice hushed. "The body is trained to see eating as something people can only do when they're safe, so if you're consuming something, you must be safe enough to do so." 
Virgil takes another drink - bigger this time - swallowing down the unique blend of sweet sugar and a flowery taste unrecognizable to him. It's definitely not a tea he's had before. 
"Do you like it?"
Virgil purses his lips, finishing the drink off before shoving the cup back into Janus's hands. "That doesn't taste like chamomile." 
"It isn't." 
"Or like green tea."
Janus smiles, eyes sparkling with amusement. "It's not that either." He stands up, brushing his pants off, before petting Virgil's bangs out of his eyes. "Let me get you another cup. You still look tense." 
Virgil doesn't feel tense, but he's also not staring at himself in a mirror. If Janus thinks he looks tense, then he just might. He sees Janus into the kitchen, and then looks toward the television. 
He can't focus on the words of the show, but that's fine. He doesn't care about it anyway. 
Janus comes back into the living room, this time also holding the kettle. He sets it on the coffee table, and hands the full cup back to Virgil, who once again holds it firmly in his hands. He sips it immediately, and once again feels the warmth spreading throughout his body. He's too focused on the relaxation the sweet tea brings him to hear Janus's soft murmur of "good boy." 
On a normal day, perhaps the fact that such a thing as a cup of tea has made him feel so nice and relaxed would be suspicious. Being such a stressed individual, Virgil would laugh outright if he was initially told that drinking some tea would have him feeling this relaxed. But, somehow, it was. 
The drink both smells and tastes pleasant, and as the sweet liquid splashes against his tongue again, he relaxes further into the couch. Everything else around him fades into a fuzzy vignette, with just the tea being at the forefront of his mind. 
Until Janus is slowly pulling the cup away from Virgil's lips with a soft laugh. 
Virgil opens his mouth to complain, blinking his eyes a few times to fully focus on Janus's smiling form. As his fingers curl tighter around the cup being taken from him, he finally glances down and realizes the cup is empty. It has his eyes going wide, as he suddenly releases the cup altogether, letting Janus grab it and set it aside as Virgil processes that he'd been holding an empty cup to his mouth and drinking air from it for... who knows how long.
"Oh... sorry," Virgil mumbles, as he wipes his mouth on his sleeve, briefly hiding the lower half of his embarrassed face. "I think I'm tired. I should go to my room." 
He's speaking with a slight daze in his voice. It's not completely noticeable to him, but Janus smiles as he hears it. 
"Tired" is the only explanation he can come up with for the way he's feeling. The TV sounds more and more muffled; the feeling of his hands on his jeans feels fuzzy. He doesn't realize why this bout of weariness is affecting Janus, who is clear in his vision, and firm in his touches. 
"Oh, don't be silly," Janus responds, waving his hand dismissively as he turns towards the coffee table. "You still seem so stressed; you should have a little bit more." Janus is already pouring Virgil another cup, and urging it into his hands as he speaks. 
"But... but I don't feel stressed. I feel really-"
"Relaxed?" Janus smiles, leaning up to cup Virgil's cutely confused face, and gliding his thumb over Virgil's flushed cheek. "That's good, of course. It's good to feel relaxed. But what's wrong with feeling even more relaxed? And the tea tastes good, doesn't it?" Janus moves himself onto the couch, settling himself next to Virgil as he helps the latter bring the cup to his lips, and watching as it's tilted ever so slightly. 
"There's nothing wrong with having just a bit more for good measure," Janus coaxes, as Virgil's eyes are fluttering shut as he drinks more tea down. Janus's hand rubs over his thigh comfortingly, and Virgil's mind struggles to pick whether to focus on Janus's touch, or the taste of the tea. 
And when he finishes that cup, Janus pours him another. And when Virgil's movements become sluggish enough for it to be worrying he might spill the hot liquid over himself, Janus holds the cup for him. 
He's encouraged to drink more and more, until Virgil can't think enough to protest or comment on anything. He can only remain obnoxiously aware of when there's no cup in his hands, and no tea in his mouth. 
"Do you like the tea?"
Virgil moans in response to the question, which causes Janus to huff out a laugh. 
"Yes, well, I suppose I should have expected an answer like that. Too relaxed to move your jaw, it seems." Janus pours the last bit of tea out of the kettle and into the cup, turning to Virgil with it in his hands. "It was a pain crossbreeding seeds until I developed a plant that not only tasted good, but had relaxing properties as well. Weeks of endless care and dedication; honestly, it was all quite tiring. I need a bit of relaxation myself after that." 
Janus hooks his fingers within the handle of the cup, holding it with one hand away from Virgil, as he leans close to Virgil's chest. His free hand caresses Virgil's face, slides down his neck, and comes to gently massage one of his shoulders. 
Janus hums. "I see a lot of your tension has been relieved. It's easy to relax when you can't even remember what you were upset about, isn't it?" 
Virgil looks with half-lidded eyes at the cup of tea. It's not filled as much as the others have been, as there wasn't much liquid left in the kettle, but it was enough for one final, satisfying gulp.
Lazily, Virgil reaches for it, but before he can grasp the cup, Janus is tilting it back and dumping the contents into his own mouth, greedily gulping down the last of the tea he'd painstakingly brewed for Virgil. 
The action causes Virgil to sit upwards, eyes wide as he cries "Janus!" 
Janus bursts out in laughter, wiping his eyes as he musters an "I'm sorry! I'm sorry. I'm- I just couldn't resist!"
Virgil feels an incredibly overdramatic feeling of betrayal due to the thievery that just occurred, leaving him mouth agape and fingers curled into fists that relax moments later as Virgil's body struggles to retain any sort of tension. 
So, in a desperate attempt to salvage the last bit of addicting tea-taste quickly leaving his mouth, Virgil lunges forward and clumsily presses their lips together, quickly tangling his hands in Janus's hair so needily that Janus's hat is knocked off his head and onto the floor below. He doesn't care that Janus is still laughing, smiling against Virgil's lips and occasionally breaking from the kiss to snicker, and instead focuses on licking into Janus's mouth, and sucking on Janus's bottom lip in such a way that Janus half-expects him to bite it in his foggy state. 
And Janus thinks it's adorable. 
Virgil's desperation for the sweet drink - that does very little for Janus with how little he consumed - affirms Janus's notion that he did a good job. Not that he needed that fact to be confirmed; he was pretty convinced as is, but this amount of need from Virgil is quite appealing. He's so attractive when he's cute and needy!
Virgil moans against Janus's lips, greedily suckling down the lingering taste, until Janus inevitably pushes his fingers into Virgil's own messy locks and firmly pulls him away. 
When Virgil opens his mouth to complain, Janus loosens his grip, and lets his fingers softly massage Virgil's scalp, while using his other hand to press a quieting finger to Virgil's lips. "Hush, Virgil," Janus insists, voice low and steady and calm. "There's no need to complain. You drank an entire kettle! Don't you think you're being a bit greedy? A bit selfish?" 
Virgil stares at him as though he's too dumb to process what Janus is saying, and is instead more interested in the way Janus's lips are moving. 
"It's... it's so good," Virgil murmurs. Janus is unsure of whether it's an argument or just a statement in itself, but smiles regardless. 
"Yes, I know. Trust me, I spent a lot of time making sure it'd be just perfect for you. Perfect for the others, even! Though, I definitely spent my time growing those plants with you in mind." Janus's finger moves from Virgil's mouth to his face, and gently runs his knuckles down the length of Virgil's jaw. "I can always make more, though. You know that, right? I can make more any time you're stressed and need some nice, encouraged relaxation." 
"But first," Janus continues, pulling his hands from Virgil, "let's get you undressed. I bet you feel so hot after drinking something so warm, don't you? And in all your layers; it must be unbearable!" Janus's fingers run down to the buttons on Virgil's jeans, which he immediately works on getting off. "These tight jeans, for example, can't possibly feel comfortable." 
Virgil squirms, as he suddenly feels uncomfortable in his clothing, and wants to get out of them. How grateful he is to Janus who is helping him out of his clothes! But as Janus slowly works Virgil's black jeans down, he grinds his hand over Virgil's bulge, earning a loud moan. Blearily, Virgil seems to process that he's hard. How long as he been hard? He tries to think back to when he first got aroused, but he quickly loses his train of thought within a mess of fog, and so obliges to just lay back and soak in his arousal. 
All he cares about is Janus, and the minimum amount of pleasure Janus is generously giving him. 
His boxers are slid off with little resistance, with Janus running his hands over Virgil's thighs. "Good thing that tea is keeping you nice and hot, huh?" Janus says, as Virgil's eyes flutter shut. "Otherwise you'd surely be shivering right now. It's so nice of me to keep you warm, isn't it?"
Virgil nods, moaning out "uh-huh." 
A bottle pops open, and sounds of squirting can be heard, but Virgil feels too lethargic to care. Janus's voice is the only clear thing in his brain. "And how nice I am to help you feel good and relaxed." 
"Mm..." 
Janus adjusts Virgil's position so that his head is resting on the arm of the couch, legs spread just enough for Janus to lift his hips. 
Then, two of his fingers are pressing into Virgil's hole, earning a surprised moan as Virgil's back arches off the couch. His fingers push against the cushions, but his body otherwise stays limp. He lets Janus pull his legs around his waist, and just lets out unintelligible noises as Janus pumps his fingers slowly in and out of him. 
"Aren't you so lucky that I'm here to take care of you?" Janus asks, though he hardly expects a clear answer. "The moment I saw you all tense and anxious, I just knew I had to take care of you. Of course, I know you're typically averse to being vulnerable, so maybe I had to give you some... subtle encouragement." 
Janus pushes his fingers fully into Virgil, scissoring them apart and then pushing him back together, and listening to the way Virgil whines and pants at the feeling.  
Then, the pads of Janus's fingers thrust against Virgil's prostate, making Virgil suddenly cry out in pleasure. 
The cute noise has Janus chuckling. "Right there? Here, let me press it again, just so I'm sure." 
Janus does a lot more than just "press," as he instead forcefully drives his fingers into Virgil's prostate again, earning another pathetically loud moan. His thighs close around Janus's waist, but Janus merely pushes them apart, softly uttering to Virgil to relax. And Virgil does. He sucks in a deep breath, and his body presses further into the couch beneath him, dazed and blissful and twitching every now and then in pleasure as Janus's fingers continue to please him. 
And then a third is being pushed into his hole, stretching him further and pleasing him immensely. 
"Janus!" Virgil gasps, attempting to push his hips down onto Janus's fingers, only to be stopped by a firm hand to his hip. 
That hand crawls up Virgil's chubby stomach, giving it a teasing squeeze, before Janus's hand is sliding back down and curling around Virgil's cock. He strokes it slowly, but Virgil moans as though Janus is squeezing and pulling his shaft with vigor, no doubt overly sensitive due to the vivid warmth his body was experiencing. 
"So nice and relaxed..." Janus coos, keeping his voice passive and gentle. "But still so hot. All that tea sitting in your stomach just promptly warming you from the inside out! It's making you feel so sensitive, isn't it?"
"Uh- uh-huh-" 
"And so needy?" 
Virgil whines, toes curling as his thighs squeeze around Janus's waist again. Janus lets him this time, and just smiles as Virgil's chest rises and falls constantly, a quick rhythm of sucking in a sharp breath only to exude a shaky moan. His fingers twitch against the couch. 
"Cl-cl-"
Janus shushes him quietly. "Don't speak. You don't need to speak. I already know what you're feeling, my Virgil. You don't need to tell me, nor do you need to beg." 
Virgil's eyes squeeze shut, moaning in response. A thin line of drool glistens as it slides down Virgil's chin, dripping away as Virgil's head leans back and leaving a trail in it's wake. 
"You're close? You want to come?" 
"Mm-!" 
Fingers curling around the base of Virgil's cock, Janus squeezes firmly and then strokes faster, while his fingers inside of Virgil continue pressing into his prostate at a leisurely pace. Virgil whines, trembling as Janus pleasures him, before he's coming suddenly over Janus's hand. 
Virgil pants, as Janus pulls his fingers out of his hole, but then whines again as Janus's hand begins moving on his cock once more. 
"Janus- Janus?" 
"Shh, shh." Janus strokes him nice and slow, using his own semen as lubricant as he rubs his hand up and down Virgil's length. "Trust me. You need this. Let me help you relax completely." 
And Virgil does. 
He lays back, shuddering as Janus's thumb glides over the slit of his cock, smearing Virgil's mess over himself while going torturously slow, building the warmth in Virgil's body back up to its peak, until he's once again consumed by a ravaging heat plaguing his oversensitive flesh, causing each brush of Janus's hand over his pudgy stomach and each pump of his cock to make him moan. 
But Janus is right. Janus is always right. Virgil needed this - he needed to relax some more. Sure, the tea had calmed him significantly, and he couldn't even remember how long it'd been since his first cup or when the television had been clicked off, but to be fully brainless and taken care of like this... it's what his body wanted. What his mind wanted. What he needed. 
He feels his orgasm building, but doesn't do anything but moan, which has Janus softly encouraging him to let go. Let go of all the stress inside of him, all his worries, all his thoughts, and let Janus take care of him completely. 
Completely, entirely, absolutely. 
Virgil comes with a weak whimper, cock twitching as it spurts semen once again over himself and Janus, though this time Janus retracts his hand fully, making a small noise of disgust at the mess covering his fingers. He summons a towel to wipe the fluids away. 
As he moves the towel over Virgil's body, he goes "there, all better. Wouldn't you agree?" 
Virgil can't form the words to respond, but he hardly needs to anyway. Janus knows it's all better, and as he helps Virgil get his boxers back on, and then lays atop him to cuddle, Virgil can at least interpret that they still have a few more hours worth of relaxing to go. Nice, intimate relaxing, with Janus keeping his head tucked under Virgil's chin, and Virgil's arms lazily around his waist. Their heartbeats could sync, and so could their breathing. 
Nice, intimate relaxing.

Roman: I splurged on a new jacket for my birthday. Do you like it?
Logan: Objectively it is adequate.
Roman: Whoa, slow down with the compliments, Casanova.
Logan: However I will say, seeing you in it makes me, uh, think more than just objectively.
Roman: … wait what?
Logan: I’d go so far as to say more than adequacy. I think you, look very… nice?
Roman: Logan. Are you flirting with me?
Logan: I… believe so?
Roman: Best birthday EVER! Do it some more.
Happy Birthday Princey! Slay all day! 🧁🌟❤️🤍🎂🍰🌹🌈💙🖤❣️👑🎉🎈🎁

Do you think Biden would have beaten Trump had he run in 2016? I know Biden stepped aside because because of his son, but it also seems likely he stepped aside for Clinton.
Yes, I do think that Biden would have beaten Trump in 2016. I don't know how Biden would have handled a campaign at that time with the death of his son having taken place much more recently, but if he could have emotionally handled the rigors of a full-on Presidential campaign at that time, I think he would have beaten Trump in the general election.
The question to me is whether or not Biden could have won the Democratic nomination in 2016 if he had run against Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. Obviously, Biden was younger at the time than he is now and still a much better retail campaigner than Hillary ever was, but I don't know if a Biden campaign in 2016 would have had the same energy as the Sanders campaign that year -- either from the grassroots or from the top-down. It would have been a much different campaign than 2020, as well, because that one took place during the pandemic and Biden was able to run against an historically unpopular incumbent in the midst of botching the worst public health crisis that every voter in America had ever lived through.
The other big question if Biden had run in 2016 is the role of Barack Obama. In 2016, Biden was the incumbent Vice President, finishing his second term of a partnership with President Obama that ended up being one of the closest personal and political relationships that a President and Vice President ever had. But it is no secret that President Obama did not believe that then-Vice President Biden was the best choice to succeed him. Biden's emotional well-being after the death of his son in May 2015 certainly worried Obama, but in books and reporting since that time, it's been apparent that Obama believed that Hillary Clinton made more sense as his successor in 2016 than Biden for a number of reasons. That ultimately resulted in some hurt feelings on the Biden side at the time when Obama seemed to be urging Biden to step aside in 2016 while the Vice President was still considering a potential run. It never impacted Biden's loyalty to the Obama Administration or truly got personal, but it was especially troubling to Biden because he still had not made a final decision about a potential 2016 campaign and one of Beau Biden's dying wishes was that his father would run for President. Obama never directly discouraged Biden from running in 2016; he thought that Biden earned the right to make his own decision about the race, but he was worried about Biden's emotional state in the wake of Beau's recent death, he worried that Biden wasn't the right candidate to defeat Hillary or Bernie for the nomination, and he worried that a potential Biden loss -- either in the primaries or the general election -- would tarnish Biden's overall political legacy and possibly come across as a repudiation of the Obama Administration eight years in the White House.
Of course, Trump's victory over Hillary in 2016 gave Obama's successor the opportunity to immediately start reversing many of Obama's accomplishments and reset the hope and change represented by Obama's successful 2008 campaign. And the irony is that the crucial, traditionally-Democratic blue-collar voters that Hillary Clinton's campaign tended to overlook in 2016 are the same voters that Biden has spent a significant portion of his political career representing and connecting with. So in 2016, Trump won battleground states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Pennsylvania, and Ohio that Obama had won in both 2008 and 2012. Without those states in 2016, Trump wouldn't have defeated Hillary Clinton, and when Biden did run against Trump in 2020, his victories in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania (Trump once again won Ohio and Iowa) were crucial in the Electoral College.

The fact that all these judges keep finding bullshit reasons to delay Trump's trials so he can pardon himself when he's reelected because "leftists" have their heads so far up their asses they can't see the big picture and are willing to let the entire world (including Palestine) burn by voting 3rd party has me 💥
