I love you
Thank you, random internet man š Hope youāre doing well ā¤ļø
YES YES A BLOG FOR THESE THREE- I havenāt gotten as deep into Markiplierās lore vids, but love Jacksepticeyeās egos and the sides (these three also kind of got me into watching others like Kallmekris and Cameron Geller, although they just play multiple characters they arenāt really regarded as egos?) Iām taking that post I saw abt in what order to best watch Markās lore stuff because Iāve been confused for a while on how to get into it/try to make sense of the story
I donāt really have anything smart to say or askā¦yet. Just. Really happy I found this blog
KALLMEKRIS
God, yes, I love her stuff. I know she doesnāt technically give us a āloreā explanation on why they look the same or anything, BUT GOD I LOVE HER STUFF!
You could watch Markās stuff in any order, but I just watched it in the order the stuff came out. Anyways, thank you for liking my blog ā¤ļø
Friendly reminder: People are allowed to be wrong about things?? Especially when they know theyāre wrong
Unpopular opinion: I want him to be wrong more often. I think itās funny š
I think the funniest thing about MatPat hate is that his critics believe him more than most of his fans. Like bestie he's the guy that taught me that English class can be about arguing for a completely incorrect interpretation for fun as long as you have evidence. He rarely claims his theory is the absolute truth, remember his catchphrase? "But hey, that's just a theory!"
Alright, I cave, Iām asking you bitches /affectionate
Please repost?
It's happening AGAIN-
So fucking based
(also just found out they had a ship name, that's amazing)
I'm back on my Remus Sanders and Wilford Warfstache should could and are best friends obsession again
Headcanons
Remus and Roman fight. A lot. But not about anything serious (usually,) but things like the best pop-tart flavor or could they what if imaginary scenarios. It gets heated in the funny way. When this happens, the other sides say āthe girls are fighting.ā
Logan is the only person to own multiple, metal, labeled rulers
When Patton gets very invested in a person and is convinced they could do no wrong, their glasses are tinted pink.
Au ideas
Roman switches place with Roman and confuses the fuck out of everyone. Yep, I spelt Roman twice. Somehow, SS!Roman and RwR!Roman switch universes which confuses the fuck out of everyone. Yungblood is very aware that something is wrong while Virgil (at first) thinks Roman is playing some sort if weird trick on him. While RwR! Roman is trying to come to terms with being stuck in a universe where six different people look exactly like him and is unsure of how real he is, SS!Roman is going on an epic adventure, hopefully on how to get back to his world (yungblood regrets wanting him to sing)
Iām going to call this one āthe hollow au.ā Long story short, Thomas no longer has access to his sides or vice versa. A group of Thomasās friends come over to find him in a weird, dazed state. Like autopilot but... Worse. Like heās not entirely there. His friends go around the house to try and find something to inspire him or get him back to his old self. One of the friends go into the front yard and find this crystal. When they pick it up, they reveal Patton sitting in the grass hold in his knees and hiding his face. The person gets Pattonās attention, Patton rushes to check on Thomas, yadda yadda yadda, bit of expedition later and now these group of friends have to find the different parts of Thomas and basically put him back together. That's all
If you want more of these, lmk. If you want some more explanations on the au because you wanna write it, also lmk and Iād be happy to help!

When Patton gets mad, he stomps on the ground like a rabbit. This has given him the nickname āThumperā by Roman and āStomperā by Janus.
Janus can't smell, at least not normally. Janus has licked a flower before.
Remus doesnāt actually like the taste of anything he eats, but he powers through it because he knows Thomas doesn't either.
Virgil can sometimes be tricked into thinking he has purple eyeshadow, which will in turn make him embarrassed and give him purple eyeshadow.
Roman has one of those mirrors that's covered in sticky notes telling him how great he is. Most of them were written by him, but some we're written by Patton. One was written by Virgil.
Logan has a mysterious hole in his wall that he covers with a Star Trek poster. How that hole got there is unknown.
Au ideas
Virgil, but heās based on fight instead of flight. Heās punk instead of emo, heās got red on him instead of purple, heās definitely more willing to throw hands, and the flirting with social anxiety video goes WAY DIFFERENT (Going up and talking to him? No problem. Not insulting him? That's the new issue.)
Normal Sander Sides, but everyone tolerates each other a little more. Virgil realizes Janus is annoying, but also the main reason why people lie is fear. Patton, after every severe disagreement, makes each of the sides something to eat because he just wants them to know they're loved despite the disagreement. Remus will throw earbuds at Patton when heās about to say something SUPER heinous. Logan and Janus have conversations over books. Roman will, periodically, write a note apologizing to some of the sides if need be. Sometimes all of the dark sides bother Thomas at once because it's funny. They still fight and argue over things, but the only real issue between them is Roman being mad at Remus because he keeps eating bathroom supplies, which wouldnāt be a problem if THEY WERENāT MY BATHROOM SUPPLIES YOU DICK
If I come up with anymore, Iāll let you know
1. That one fangame that represented Darkiplier as a girl. (Paired with Damien and Celine creating Darkiplier, it makes my head go round)
2. I saw a post that I couldāve SWORN was a SanderSides rp post, but it was a Wilford and Dark rp post. And the only reason I thought it was the first was because of the use of āStorm Cloudā (Now I can only imagine someone calling out āstorm cloudā and both of them responding and being really awkward about it.)
3. āWhat are you gonna do? Punch me? You canāt fucking punch me.ā (Blooper Remus. Iconic.)
4. Stan and Patton are, like, the same person. Just different fonts.
5. If they existed in the same universe, Chase would warn the others about Anti and everyones reactions would boil down to āTHAT CAN HAPPEN??/WE CAN DO THAT??ā (Mostly referring to the sides, Markās egos seem a little jaded. More of a āwell, that might as well happen.ā)
6. Does anyone else remember that one time that Patton said āNot all loops are bad. Fruit.ā? Because I do. And I can confidently say that Dark and Anti would be furious if they heard Patton say that.
May add more to this, who knows š¤·
I feel like if one of Thomasās dark sides said the phrase ādid you miss me?ā all of the Jacksepticeye and Markiplier girlies would loose their shit
Your brain is so big, I love this
{{Hey, since Mark made the comment about Dark "Not being evil, just misunderstood" after saying a few years back that Dark "Did not push us out to save us"
Don't think about both being true and the potential character development angst that could possibly arise from it.
Don't think about Damien losing his bitter shell and struggling to come to terms with betraying the one person who trusted him most.
And don't think about Celine coming to realize all of the vile shit Actor has continually put the district attorney / Y/N through and realizing that when it comes to him. Her and the DA are in the same boat and out of fear of losing her brother she tossed someone who was at the time helpless under the bus.
Dark has made zero progress in Actors regard for what we know. Don't think about how that would worsen the impact of all this-
Don't think about the guilt.
DON'T THINK ABOUT IT.
DON'T THINK ABOUT DARK QUESTIONING IF HE ACTUALLY IS THE VILLAIN IN THIS SCENARIO (he's not). AND DON'T THINK ABOUT ACTOR USING THAT AGAINST HIM.
IM NOT GOING TO USE THIS AS A FANFIC PLOT POINT, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. }}
So, last night I was talking with some friends about an AU Iām currently working on. Iāve been away from the Sanders Sides fandom for a good while now, but recently my hyperfixation reactivated and now my brain is so ready to write a ridiculously long longfic with a convoluted premise and horrifying implications. (Iām like 25k in. Having the time of my life. No doubt Iāll talk about it more later. This isnāt about that.)
Since Iām not the sort of person who usually writes AUs - I prefer to stick to canonverse, and canonverse-adjacent fics - I eventually brought up how worried I always am about characterization of the Sides in AUs. Because although I do adore an AU; I devour Love and Other Fairytales like candy and think about Lavender For Luck all the time and donāt even get me started on WIBAR, when it comes to my own writing, I secondguess myself a lot. I donāt like to stray too far from canon concepts and characterization. I get worried when I donāt draw enough connections to things that happen in the series, because it feels like a betrayal of the source material - if I change a character dynamic from how itās usually portrayed, I spend entirely too long thinking about how to make it work.Ā
And someone else said, well, I donāt usually worry about that sort of thing very much anymore.Ā
And I said, why not?
And they said, well, I havenāt watched the actual show for ages. I mainly treat the Sides as stock characters for the stories I write, and my brain fucking exploded.
