Just finally put together that the thing Ken from the Barbie movie reminds me of that I couldn't put my finger on for the longest time is Rocky from Rocky Horror
Eating Crofter's and yeah, I finally get Logan shoveling it in his mouth right from the jar, this shit SLAPS

So you mean to tell me that a red himbo with self-esteem issues, a father with no son but has spirit, a teen stuck in his emo phase, Google with emotions on incognito, a lawyer with a Self-Care agenda, and Sin ALL make up a man with a flower obsession??
Logan: Just wrote offly instead of awfully. Can you tell I'm exhausted?
Janus: Yes, because this is a verbal conversation so I don't have any idea what you're talking about.
Logan: ...
Logan: I'm going to bed.
Janus: Good choice.
Hey look, it's me
dee: gets crushes easily
also dee: is unable to imagine himself in any sort of romantic relationship because of his unwillingness to express vulnerability to others
therefore dee: cries
Dee is like "guess ill daydream abt romantic scenarios w these people although never bother to make a move in real life"
Writing a fic where C!Thomas is autistic (undiagnosed) and I was writing and was like 'hang on this might fit a little too well...'
Anyway lmao new theory?
I think if anyone finds the labels of light and dark absolutely meaningless, it's Logan and Janus, because they both know they all help Thomas equally, so I think they're most likely to befriend each other.
When Janus snatched away Logan with his cane and took his place, Logan had to know he was being impersonated, yet there was no sign of Logan attempting to stop him. 'Logan' also didn't return immediately, which leaves room for me to presume that they discussed it, but he returned quick enough, which leaves room for me to presume that they agreed on Janus taking his place.
These facts in mind, I would say they absolutely recognize this in each other, and as they both know there's no figurative 'cap' on affection the sides can receive, they support each other. If they receive praise from each other, it's mutually beneficial. (I also believe there's a reason that Dark Side!Logan and Loceit AUs are so common and easily supported by canon)
I chose to imagine them hanging out, talking about how the other sides have brushed them off/ignored them lately, and talking about their interests (for example, a conversation I had with a friend:
Them: [showing me their art, beginning to explain it because it's around the theme of a band they really like]
Them: And it— sorry, I should stop, people don't like it when I talk about it so much...
Me, internally: Tell me who said that and they'll pay
Me, externally: No no I want to hear it keep talking
and I feel like that's how it'd go with them)
And Remus! I feel like he's going to have a much bigger + irreplaceable role than shown so far. Like how Janus was introduced as 'Deceit,' but we learned he embodies self-preservation + self-care too. But for now, about his actions:
Roman is a Light Side. He is Good Creativity. He's Thomas's hero. He's literally a prince charming. Everybody loves him.
At least, that's how he's seen, right? We know he's actually got some self-esteem issues. But externally, he's perfect. Externally, 'the Duke and the Prince literally wear the black and the white.'
When Thomas's creativity 'split,' and Remus was created as the embodiment as Bad Creativity and the villain of the story, how everyone would see him was predetermined. He's the annoying one; the bad one; the one nobody wants around.
So that's what he made himself. He knew he couldn't get positive attention, so he made himself get the attention he could get: negative attention.
He's not just a kid screaming on an airplane. He's the sibling that's overshadowed by his brother, who's perfect. He's the kid who acts out to try to get the attention that his brother gets for being good.
Because if Remus acted 'good,' so what? Everyone else already does that. To get attention, he either has to somehow become 'better' than Roman, or be so much 'worse' that everyone takes note. (And this is super common in kids.)
This is my take on everything and this is very long and probably repetitive but if I am anything it is not succinct
So we all remember these scenes:
C!Thomas: You’re right, you’re right, you’re right, you’re right, you’re right, you’re right.
Logan: Well, now you're just pandering to my fondness for being told that I'm right.
-
C!Thomas: (sighs) You're right.
Janus: Oh, I'm sorry. Uh, what was that? I couldn't hear you.
C!Thomas: (louder) You're right.
Janus: AH! YES! Ha! It feels SO GOOD! SO GOOD! Aah...
And before you say 'praise kink,' hear me out:
Janus recently revealed himself to Thomas, and nobody else seems to like him. Remus might, it's undetermined, but Remus doesn't seem like the kind to tell anyone that they're right.
Logan, as we know, enjoys being called 'cool.' I doubt being called intelligent would have any effect on him; he knows, he's Logic, he has to be intelligent. And they seem to just either know he's saying facts or ignore him.
They're probably the least likely to be told that they're right. (Besides Remus but he seems to take it out by bothering everyone)
That might have been the first time anyone ever told Janus he was right. And don't get me started on how under-appreciated Logan is.
What if they both react this way because they don't get told they're right often/at all?
Like, whenever someone says they want to listen to me rant about one of my hyper fixations (a rare occurrence) I freak out and get really giddy and happy. Maybe it's the same way for them.
And yes, Logan's response wasn't very emotionally charged, but he either suppresses his emotions or doesn't show them as openly as the others. The last time he showed an emotion, he hit Roman in the eye with a crumpled vocabulary card.
So... Yeah. Just consider that. I don't know I never know how to end my rants in real life I usually just get interrupted before I can finish
THANK YOU!!

What do you call a fic that takes place on Dream’s smp server but everything is underwater?
Damp au
Can you imagine the absolute chaos if Thomas confirmed Sleep's name and it wasn't Remy
“Patton two-point-oh-my-god.” (When Patton gets a punk makeover)
In his corner of the garage, Virgil started snapping. His hands were up by his ears as he did, and he was grinning, seemingly in his own little world.
(I just realized— we’re all in the community, aren't we? Well, I don't know about Virgil.) Virgil’s snapping had stopped, but now he was rocking back and forth on his heels. “I’m gay. And trans, actually.”
“Looks like you gotta rap now, man. I don't make the rules.”
“Yikes, man. Er— sorry, is it alright if I call you that?”
"At school, to defend my hiding behind layers and black clothing, I pretended to be goth or emo ..."
”Do you want to kiss?” (Who?) "Me."
“I’m scared of someone finding out my deadname and using it. Any time I hear it, I just freeze up ..."
"I’m not really accepted in a lot of trans spaces, because I don't want surgery or HRT. I just… Identify as a guy. That's not enough, apparently."
He/they (both equally good)I love asks, requests, general interaction, and stuff like that!Mostly various fandom stuff, I'm just having a good time and enjoying myselfI hope I can make you smile :)
