TL;DR, the blog is on hiatus for now. Thank you for all the support. <3

Hey guys, I know it’s been a few days. My motivation for this blog has come to an unfortunate halt. There are a few reasons for this, including personal troubles I’m experiencing right now, a general lack of engagement for the blog altogether, and the fact that I don’t feel like I have the grasp on the characters anymore that I should. Now that Sanders Sides episodes are coming back, I really want to be able to separate my fanon interpretations of Thomas’ characters from their canon counterparts. I really respect Thomas and his work, and I want to be able to experience the next episode and the season finale without fanon clouding my judgement.

I’ve decided to put the blog on hiatus for now. I’m not going to say forever, because I believe in the “never say never” motto, but at least until the season finale is out.

I don’t want to just abandon this blog without a word after all, all the askers have been so supportive and fun to interact with, and I’ve also received so much fanart that I never even expected to get! Fan content for a blog of fan content?! That’s so cool! I want to apologize for leaving it here, but thank you for letting me tell you a story, and if/when the blog comes back, I hope that I see some familiar usernames.

Take it easy, guys gals and nonbinary pals!

P.S. I will still be posting on my main @halfhissandwich so if you want to keep in touch, you can meet me there. :)

Bowie: Whoa! Wow, you people really capture my beauty! Thank you so much for the art, I love it!

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Ooc: The admins' admittion that they don't like drawing dresses has caused me a bit of guilt, and thus, I apologise. Specifically to the admin, not to Bowie, this is highly amusing.

Also, the dress you drew does look good! I actually like it more than his OG outfit. OG outfit is kinda plain below the bow tie, could you use a ✨️boutonnière✨️ (that's the little flower that you see on mens suits)

Bowie: I’m never really in the mood for putting up with him.

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Gorgeous. Wonderful entry, Bowie! It's as if you were in an anime!

Dang, now I kinda wanna see at least Bowie as a magical girl, Sailor Moon style.

Bowie: I hate this. I mean, I look stunning as always but I hate this.

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Bowie Boy:D hope he likes it:D

Bowie: Oh, thank you so much sweetie, what beautiful art! I feel so loved! /gen

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Admin: What the heck have I done

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

To Nico pls,your last name really suits you since you're as beautiful as a bunch of flowers

Nico: Bowie be quiet

Bowie: Fine…

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Thomas. Sorry bout the migrain but we discovered that nico has a third facet. Self loathing. He thinks you are too good for Nico and wants to convince him to break up with him so you can be with someone who can actually make you happy.

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

I lost the plot a long time ago for whatever is going on in this blog, but I wanted to say thank you for running it still you make SO much art for it it’s insane and awesome

Admin: you and me both, anon 😅 The plot is kind of on hold and I took a short break, but thank you for the kind words, it’s very appreciated :)

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

(Me wanting Mociet)

HEY JANUS, PATTON! KISS!

Janus: PATTON!

Patton: Hehe, sorry. I saw the asks and figured I’d show you some love!

Janus: I totally don’t want it in the slightest!

Patton: Okay okay! I’m sorry!

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Heyyy there Thomas, Thomathy, Thoma llama ding dong, Thomas the dank engine (/ref) how are you doing? Are you doing well?

Hey Nico! Write anything interesting lately? Anything about a Carrot king Or kings should i say? How’s life going?

(Ok this is one of the ones where Admin just cannot make art for it, I’ve tried like 15 times, I’m so sorry, but I have to do text for this, I PROMISE I TRIED)

Thomas: Oh, um… I’m okay. Things are just a little quiet lately…

Nico: Wha- Carrot kings?

Thomas: What do “carrot kings” have to do with anything?

Nico: I don’t know, it… it weirdly makes me think of “pintroverts”?

Thomas: Pintroverts? Huh, that sounds familiar.

Nico: It does?

Thomas: Yeah… almost makes me want to put our names together!

Nico: Nicomas?

Thomas: Like that!

Nico: Huh. How odd.

Thomas: I wonder why “carrot kings” made us think of that stuff.

Nico: I guess we’ll never know.

Thomas: I guess not.

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

I think I might have an idea for you, Vestie. Scarfie is linked to Nico's opinion of his creative works, hence him being a bit of a perfectionist. As the saying goes, most artists are their own worst critic. And for a lot of creative people, the things they make are often in attempt to make a legacy that goes beyond them, I know that's the case for me, and most people would wanna make sure they're legacy is the best it can be. In many ways, a creative piece can be like an extension of the creator themselves, that's why it can be hard for people to separate art from the artists.

So yeah, TL:DR Scarfie is linked to Nico's opinions of his creative works and the legacy he wants to leave.

(Not sure if the full details made proper sense. Hope it did.)

“… how long have you been holding onto that one?”

Bowie: Don’t interrupt my interruption, that’s rude.

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

hey vestie! wanna be friends? :3

“So if you can befriend my… associates, then I don’t see why not.”

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Remus birthday drawing!! What do you thinky stinky?

The Tasmainian Devil's named Su-Su, and she's a feral creature on par with yourself. You like her?

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Shut up Vestie, or whatever the heck your name is!! It's everyone here against you, you're not convincing anyone that Thomas and Nico aren't absolutely freaking adorable together! They love eachother and it's amazing!

Logan: Wait, what?-

“I didn’t say anything.”

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]

Don't worry Lo-

The other anons are just excited since Thomas and Nico are being all adorable together

Logan: Good, so why is this an issue, askers?

Scarfy: I mean, technically…

Logan: Pardon?

Scarfy: Nothing!

[ask-nico-and-the-sides]
