roman of reston 🤝 roman gage

[id: the two-panel "corporate needs you to find the difference" meme from the office. first, images of roman from rswr and young roman from laoft, both peeking from behind a tree and drawn in a rough animatic style, are shown on separate pieces of paper. the caption reads: "corporate needs you to find the difference between this picture and this picture." the next panel shows pam beesly, smiling and saying: "they're the same picture." end id]

Starter Things for My Friend

Hhehe I got my friend into Sanders Sides and she’s in the fandom now, so I’m making this lil post with some fic recs, blogs to follow, and artists to check out to start her out in the famILY. I’m probably forgetting some great fics and amazing blogs, so sorry, and this is based off my personal experience so I’m sorry if your faves aren’t on here. Feel free to leave more suggestions in the notes for her (and even me) to check out!

Let’s hope that Tumblr fixes its problem with links, because this post is full of them

Fic Recs:

A Lesson in Practicality and the sequel Probable Theorem by @residentanchor (as well as the animatics for chapter one and two by @robinsdraw)

Silence and Duality and the sequel Just Other Years by @parkersanders or @xaandiir (this was the first fanfic I read when I joined the fandom so I couldn’t not rec it)

Cinderpatton by @quillfics42 (gosh I hope this one gets a sequel)

A Different Side of Hogwarts by @notalwaysthevillian

Lost and Found (Tangled AU) by @notalwaysthevillian

In the Witch’s Nest by @misplaced-my-notes

It’s Only Logical by @tinysidestrashcaptain or @mewsicalmiss (on ao3 it’s nsfw. This link to the tumblr masterpost is sfw, but it isn’t completely up to date as there are more than 16 chapters now)

I’m Here by @sandersfander1820

@anxiously-unsatisfied-world has some great Sanders Sides stories

@sanderssidescelebrations is literally full of fics from Spooky Month and the upcoming Holiday Month that are all unique and amazing

@literally-logicality-trash is going to write an incredible fic based on their brilliant SoulKey AU

@random-snippets has an abundance of stories that are great

@findmethesun is a blog of asks in regards to a wonderful AU

Aisling by @terminally-anxious hasn’t been updated in a little bit, but I loved it so much and it deserves to be on the list

Blogs to Follow (this is based on who I personally follow and some other blogs that I know of, so please don’t be upset if you aren’t on this list):

@the-psycho-pie (they aren’t exclusively Sanders Sides, but I love them so they had to be on the list)

@sandersstudies

@softestvirgil because they are a freaking amazing person

and @magentatheprinter because that’s really funny to me

@my-emo-little-nightmare

all of the people listed above that wrote fics

this just shows that I need to follow more blogs lol, please leave more suggestions

Amazing Artists (A+ for awesome alliteration? :P)

Ok I’m not gonna lie, I just went exploring on Tumblr to find these artists because I don’t know any art blogs by name specifically. But these people can give you a taste of how talented this fandom is

@justisaisfine I only saw their art recently and their style is so cool

@breigrace they aren’t exclusively Sides but their cover art for the episodes are absolutely beautiful

@well-love-has-failed-me

@self-conscious-fander

@the-pastel-peach

@weeklylogincedoodles if Logince is your thing

@5am-the-foxing-hour (beware of Deceit)

To find more fics and blogs and art, just go exploring! Search up ships that you like, look for certain tags, and don’t be afraid to ask other blogs for recs as well.

Please please please add more suggestions to this list! I’m still fairly new to the fandom myself, so my knowledge of good blogs isn’t very broad.

Again, this list is based off my own personal experiences, and just because certain people are on the list, doesn’t mean they are better than anyone not on the list. Everyone in the fandom is amazing, no matter the follower count, or any other factor.

If anyone on this list is uncomfortable and would like to be taken off, please let me know! I don’t intend to cause anyone discomfort.

To my friend, or any other new fanders that stumbled upon this list, welcome to the famILY! I hope you love it here. And I hope this list was useful to you in some way.

[Added much later: Hello, I wrote this list like a month ago and it’s been sitting in my drafts. My friend probably won’t get tumblr, so she won’t use this list, but I’m gonna post it anyway. Also, feel free to follow me as well, I’m always down to make new friends!]
