A Fun Virgil Inspired Scrapbook Page

A fun Virgil inspired scrapbook page

do you guys ever like forget you're interested in something until you start engaging with it again and you go "oh wait i'm like crazy crazy about this yeah"

YES!! THIS IS SO COOL! I GENUINELY WANT SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO HAPPEN IN THE SERIES! LET THE BOY GO FERAL

“Together, We’ll Ring in the New Year” Artist: Motion City Soundtrack

tws: flashing images, alcohol, sides inadvertently hurting each other’s feelings; no one’s meant to be unsympathetic, but lmk if any tags need to be added anyway

(i had a lot more fun with this than i expected)

What is Remus' contribution?

Let's discuss

So as we know all of the sides' sole purpose in life is to help make sure c!Thomas is safe, successful and happy in life:

Logan is responsible for his learning, vocabulary, reasoning, logic and curiosity;

Virgil is responsible for his safety, vigilance, attention to his relationships, caution and basic life preservation instincts;

Roman is responsible for creativity, ego, self esteem, adventurousness and romantic pursuits;

Patton is responsible for his morality, sense of wonder, joy, memories and nostalgia

Janus is his self preservation instinct and represents his more selfish impulses and adds some nuance to the group's discussions.

Remus...?

As we know, there are no "bad" or "evil" sides, and that presumably includes Remus and the orange side soon to be revealed.

However, as hard as I may try I can't seem to come up with what might be Remus' role. All of the sides take on multiple crucial roles in c!Thomas' life and sure, it could be argued that Remus' disturbing suggestions and mental images he conjures serve as moral tests in which by consistently picking the safe, healthy option over the dangerous or unethical option c!T can be sure of where he stands morally. But how many times can a man's morals be tested before it just becomes exhausting? What else does Remus do? Surely he doesn't only represent intrusive thoughts, when the other sides represent so much beyond what they're best known for?

I would like to hear your thoughts, headcanons and theories about Remus, cause I'm afraid I really don't get his character. At least not so far. I would like to get to know him better as a character in the next episodes.

[Muffled Announcer Voice] EPIC RAP BATTLES OF HISTORY

Op predicted the future?? Also I need this fic in my life

give me more fics where the insecure one is Logan damn it

give me fics where

-they never give him reassurance because they just assume he doesn’t need it

-the focus is always on Virgil bc of his past and they’re too busy with him to see that Logan is falling apart

-they’re more rude and blunt with Logan bc they assume that it doesn’t hurt his feelings (because he doesn’t even have feelings, right?)

-Logan isolating himself because its not like the other three care either way

-Logan feeling so alone because everyone calls him nerd and boring and they never want to talk about his interests and they don’t even realize what they’re doing to Logan’s self esteem

-Logan just eventually stopped leaving his room because it hurts too much to

-Logan stops talking to and interacting with the sides

-It takes at least three weeks for them to even notice and if that doesn’t just twist the knife in Logan’s heart even more

-they all go to find him in his room sad as heck (almost crying perhaps???) bc he has n o b o d y. nobody.

- “Logan, sad? He doesn’t have feelings!”

-And those words hurt even more because they really came to his room just to antagonize him

-crying? yes

-kicking them out? yes

-more isolation? yes

-Patton is obviously the one who understands that his feelings are actually hurt

-he realizes how horrible they have all been to poor Logan

-more tears? yes

-getting mad at himself and the others? yes

-Patton going to Logan’s room only to be turned away? yes

-angst ensues

-Logan slowly but surely letting his walls down around Patton (the other two don’t even believe Patton and haven’t apologized because theres no need to, right?)

-Patton’s heart breaks every time he sees Logan’s smile die down when the other two enter the room

-Logan refusing to talk to the others because “get on with it, calculator watch” and “you’re the least favorite character and you know it”

-Patton has had enough

-Patton gets visibly angry at the other two for the first time in forever

-the two finally realize the damage they’ve done

-Logan refuses to let his walls down bc they only finally care bc Patton yelled at them, not because they actually feel bad

-more angst

-it isn’t until he catches Patton comforting a distraught Virgil and Roman that he understands that they’re actually sorry

- “he won’t even look at us, Pat” from Roman and “Out of all people, I should have understood” from Virgil

-Logan forgives them, but can’t forget

-M O R E T E A R S A N D A N G S T

-he still has a hard time letting his walls down

-every time the others see Logan, he tries to leave the room, and he stops talking and it breaks their heart because thats their fault

-it takes a long time for Logan to begin to talk to them again

-he catches himself talking too much and stops mid sentence, because they don’t care and he talks too much etc etc

-more tears

-im going to write this BYE
