I’m curious to know, when you say Remus’s function serves like an alarm clock, do you think Remus is aware of/intentionally fulfilling that role? Because I have always interpreted it as, from his perspective, his role is simply to be c!Thomas’s creativity the same way Roman is. His version of creativity is just rejected by c!Thomas and the other sides (often for good reason, but sometimes not). Even though his ideas are sometimes dangerous or unrealistic, the role of creativity isn’t always to do everything that pops into your head. Roman has unrealistic ideas as well but because they’re not as upsetting to c!Thomas, they’re seen as fanciful rather than totally forbidden. A lot of what Remus wants is just for c!Thomas to censor himself less and explore darker, more mature themes in his art. Idk about him representing ‘repressed truths’ since intrusive thoughts are by definition not rooted in realistic conclusions or in what the individual actually wants. I def see what you mean about Remus serving as an alarm for Thomas’s mental state, especially in WTIT, but idk if I see Remus’s intentions in WTIT as being that complex and altruistic. Especially since he’s genuinely upset whenever c!Thomas and Logan ignore or defeat his creative inventions. (Also sorry if any of this comes off as confrontational, I genuinely love reading your analyses and I’m just curious to hear your perspective more!)

hello! no worries btw, idt this is confrontational at all! i find it to be an interesting point of discussion :3

the reason i entertain the idea of remus being repressed truths (or thoughts in general) is because i acknowledge remus is a faulty representation of intrusive thoughts, in a meta level. this episode was created before major discussions of what intrusive thoughts really means blew up on tiktok. even by how remus is executed as a character, it is clear to a lot of us that what he suggests isn't Just intrusive thoughts. rather he's a mix of that and impulsivity!

but for me, remus Has to be aware of and Cares for his role as a side of thomas. i expounded it more in my extensive orange side theory, but to reiterate: the baseline need of the dark sides is to get listened to, but because thomas has very bad black-and-white thinking, it's almost required that they be meticulous with their plan execution. in this case, remus kinda Has to get along to get what he ultimately wants: to be listened to.

i generally think all sides do things in the interests of thomas and themselves. i don't think it can be divorced from each other actually— their entire foundation of existence begins with their roles in connection to thomas.

it is still. a very open question to ask though about how does remus actually want to give back to thomas. when i say he's an alarm clock, i say that he's hyperaware of thomas and the sides' struggles and his presence means you should probably do sometjing about it. but then we don't actually know if the end goal is if he wants thomas to get better by acknowledging the intrusive thoughts and winding down, OR if thomas should truly follow through with these thoughts.

there's a lot of mystery when it comes to remus and his true intent. all i can say is that he does want the best for thomas in a way only remus sees fit. you asked if he was aware of his role outside of creativity and for me, yeah! i think there's too much scenes for insecurity callouts to the other sides for remus to be unaware of his role :3 man knows all your secrets! all kept hidden!

Has anyone seen my dog?

He doesn't come when called, has a habit of stealing, and hates father figures.

He's a terrible dog but I miss him and want to see him again.

With the grandchild who chose violence, any brave idiots wont be leaving the castle without a bite mark, or worse, without a limb.

He's gonna need 2 more arms for these kids.

a note from yours truly

a lil emotionally distant when it comes to this site sorry - I don't really have any interest in social media other in discord - maybe it's because i have a tendency to doomscroll but also I've just,, haven't felt very happy with my online presence so to day.

given how things are currently sometimes hopping on the dashboard makes me anxious. i still will reblog important world events and what not , but I kinda just.. shut myself off whenever I'm on here , unrelated to world events .

sometimes i hop on to see what my favorite artists have posted, but that's it really. long story short I just don't have a lot of interest in social media - or at least being myself on here, I feel more comfortable on discord then anything (though.. ill have to weed out a few things first -some spaces I don't really like or feel safe in I guess.)

i sound depressed but im really not , I'm more neutral than anything, I'm kinda going thru artblock so I'm tryna hold it out you know? ever since i left the t/m/c fandom I've got better things to be fixated on - though there's always going to be that hole in my heart where it lies - it lead me to met my 2 of my close friends after all,

OK but regardless though - im not going to be active on tumblr as much now, if any of my mutuals or whatever want my discord just send me an ask - tumblr pms are trash as I'm never rlly sure if the other person sees my message.
