Going Back To My Roots By Drawing Janus In A Dress

alright ive known ive needed a new prescription for a while now, but who was going to tell me Virgil's sleeves had zippers on them? Was this just common knowledge im too blind to notice??

✨💜 New headcannon ✨💜

(Based on what I did today) Virgil won't say if he wants to hold hands, he'll write or draw on his palms something weird like "place hand here" and simply hold it out at people until they hold his hand

Okay, so I just remembered this video I watched years ago and their was an animal I initially disagreed with.

This video is about what animals best represent the Sides (not just Janus being a snake or Patton being a frog). And one stuck out as different to what I expected; Virgil is a bat, a vesper bat to be more specific.

I disagreed with Virgil being a vesper bat as I always saw him as a spider (most likely a tarantula). But

✨💜 NEW HEADCANNON TIME ✨💜

What if Virgil, being both a Light and Dark Side, gave him two different animal traits?

His Dark Side animal would be the tarantula. His Light Side animal would be the bat.

Think about it... Isn't it adorable??

... Can I offer you some suggestions, @scribblesun?

Janus has hammerspace in both his hat and capelet.

Virgil has super speed, leaving puffs of smoke behind him (this might also be an abused power as he has stolen from Janus and Logan in the main series)

Roman & Remus have physical/visible thought bubbles and can interact with them (and pull things out of them)

Patton moves in the rubberhose animation style (it's also kinda fun but creepy imagining Remus to do the same)

Logan can think and speak at super quickly, and seems to make lots of (good and well thought out) assumptions but is always right

And going of the theory that, yet to be revealed, Orange is the embodiment of rage; he would would be the one to have the steaming fire coming from his face based on his emotions (although I also like imagining Logan also having it, but in more of a malfunctioning robot way when confused)

Hammerspace: where an object comes from/goes when a cartoon character pulls out impossible objects from nowhere (copied from previous post)

Rubberhose: the older black & white animation style in which characters move without discernable bones, making them super bendy

Added note in case of confusion, feel free to ignore all below:

I am going to add this note here because I feel a little bad about it and just putting the first vague idea down, I had no idea what to give Logan.

I do still like the idea but I don't know if I described it very well; it was supposed to be like that (anime?) trope when a character is just so stupidly intelligent that it hurts, especially when the answers are so confusing that no human could be expected to make them. Purposefully exaggerated example; Akechi Touma from 'The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.'

Okay so we all know when Patton got Remus an air fryer and it was kinda weird, he should have got Remus these

Random example question to ask aphobes :

Why is it considered sexual harassment to push a straight woman into having sex, but not when she's asexual?

Why does it change anything, I thought a "no" is a "no"?

there was a shocking amount of women in the hear me out cakes

I'm just reblogging this because it made my entire day

Janus Week Day 4 - Name Reveal

For @darksideweeks Janus' week! I've had the draft thumbnails for this comic sitting pretty for three years and today's prompt was PERFECT for me to blow off the dust and actually draw it!

(I have many ideas of how Janus shared his name with Remus but this is by far the funniest.)

Image ID below the cut.

[ID: A four page digital Sanders Sides comic with the brainlicking.tumblr signature at the bottom of each page.

Page 1: [A small yellow panel at the top of the page with a speech bubble]

Janus: I... ...I would like to tell you...

[Whole page panel with Janus at the forefront, his back to the viewer and his arms crossed behind his back, he is facing Remus. Remus is sitting on a purple couch, concentrating on reaching a book.]

[Bottom left panel. Remus looks up in surprise.] [Bottom right panel. Remus is looking intently at Janus with both hands pressed together in front of his mouth, there is a green text box with an arrow pointing to Remus that says, "Not saying a word because he genuinely wants to know."]

Page 2: [The panels of this page are bordered with yellow with faded text that reads, "HE'S GOING TO LAUGH" over and over.]

[Top panel. Profile shot of Janus' torso, going from neck to waist, he is facing to the viewers left. His arms are out in front of him and is taking off his right glove.]

[Middle panel. Closer shot of his right hand, it is now ungloved.]

Janus: My name...

[Bottom panel. Closeup shot of the lower half of Janus' face, teeth bared and his hand close to his mouth.]

Page 3: [Whole page panel of a bust shot of Janus, he is grinning widely, his expression cheeky and is pressing the length of his pointer finger against the space between his upper lip and nose. There is a mustache drawn on the finger.]

Janus: Is REMUS!

[Bottom panel. Janus and Remus stare at each other in silence.]

Page 4: [Top panel. Janus and Remus burst into laughter, there is yellow and green "HA HA"'s written around them, with green text of Remus saying, "You silly bitch!" to Janus.]

[Whole page panel. The laughter from the top panel trickles down the middle of the page. Janus is now sitting with Remus on the couch, he peeks one eye open at him, still smiling.]

Janus: It's actually Janus.

Remus: Aw, we match!

Janus: Heh, yes we do.

A head cannon that shouldn't make sense but somehow does : Virgil Sanders having the most friends outside of the Sides.

I like to imagine all of the Sides having friends outside of the other Sides but Virgil (despite being (social) anxiety) seems to have the most friends. He gives off chronically online but the funny kind, if that makes sense - So probably has a few online friends.

He also has a reliance on Thomas' real friends to calm himself down so him wanting and making more friends than the others makes sense to me.

The other characters are a bit different :

Logan is the only other introvert and has difficulty expressing his feelings.

Roman seems to preoccupied with his crushes or defeating his enemies to make a lot of friends.

Janus is (excuse my implied language) too b*tchy to have friends outside of for gossip.

Remus - pretty obvious. He'd probably befriend rats / raccoons / and other "pests" instead of humans, if that changes anything.

Patton is the only other Side I could see having a plentiful amount of friends. If Patton does go to church, he would absolutely befriend other church-goers. I also see him going to public parks often so could meet more people.

I refuse to be the only person with this head cannon when it makes somewhat sense (to me, I might be speaking nonsense).
