Janus headcanons bc why not

He tried multiple times to peel his scales off using various methods, this includes but isn’t limited to burning and using a nail file.

Building off the last one, he sheds and his scales grow back, thus giving him hella scars under his scales.

Grows mushrooms under his bed. Not expected from him, but he does it.

Whenever bestie sheds, wherever he sheds has extreme pains that I want to say are like period cramps.

Extremely flexible. Uses this skill to his advantage. (Scaring the other sides and Thomas.)

Has a secret DND campaign that he one day will get the other sides to join. (Never gonna happen.)

He has emetophobia. Remus has took advantage of this.

Cold blooded. He is extremely cold all the time, thus grew the obsession with hot chocolate.

characters who see themselves as more of a Force or an abstract concept acting in the world than as a person. characters who prioritize their role as a cog in some greater mechanism over their own personhood. characters who get their hands dirty, who run themselves ragged, who take on an unbearable weight, who hurt or neglect or give up or straight-up betray the people and things they once held close, because they believe in doing so they are fulfilling their Purpose, the thing they exist in this world to do (and no one else will do it, *can* do it, so it has to be them). characters who've determined that they are constructs bound to preprogrammed code, to a script already written for them by someone/something else, and have been operating under that mindset for so long that they don't know how to live on their own terms. characters who uphold the fate that is smothering them. can anyone hear me

Silly little headcanon that Janus and Virgil always accidentally end up doing the same thing without realizing it.

Janus is very private and doesn't like people snooping around in his stuff, so he writes his notes in a secret alphabet he came up with so no one could read it.

Virgil has a diary he hides in his room and worries about Remus or someone else finding it, so he's written it in his own invented code for good measure.

It's only when Virgil randomly looks over Janus' shoulder in the common room to see what he's writing that he realizes they're both using the SAME DAMN CODE.

They have similar taste in junk food and hide their preferred snack in the same spot where no one will look for it. They think they're the only one stocking it and get confused by how they run out so soon when they aren't eating it that much (the other side was eating it too because they thought it was theirs)

Janus is hungry late at night, and when he goes downstairs he catches Virgil already grabbing one of their snacks, which is when he finally figures it out.

About every other month one of them catches the other doing something they already do and it always ends up like this:

my uh- DRLAMP relationship headcanons-

it’s complicated

Don’t ask how mociet are divorced and married at the same time they just are

[swhhdr-wthhr]

headcanon: because janus is cold blooded, he really likes hugging people for warmth. but virgil doesn't like physical affection and remus is always cold to the touch. so when patton hugs janus for the first time, it's the best thing he's ever experienced

[let-roman-bite-someone]

oh btw i study forensic science and there’s this neat little legal term called the “fruit of the poisonous tree”, referring to evidence that is illegally obtained. and idk why but i feel like this term is gonna come up in a future sanders sides video, it’s so janus-coded.

Why I think Holyghost is T4T

So we know Grace’s mother respects trans people as she uses Ziggs’s proper pronouns, so it’s not to much of a stretch they’d accept a trans daughter. Grace’s main colors are Pink, Blue, and White (the colors of the trans flag) to the point where she even colors her sign that way

We don’t know that much about Max’s personal life however we can peace some stuff together. We know he has a bad relationship with his dad referencing his dad calling him “a little cuck” maybe because he doesn’t accept him, his reference to Judas likely means his family is Christian only adding to it (obviously not all Christians are transphobes but a good amount of transphobes are Christian)

He seems to be friends with Steph or at least former friends, telling her to get behind him at the Old Waylon Place and offering to protect her. While obviously guys and girls can be friends they’re relationship to me at least reads as childhood girlfriends after one transitioned (from my own personal experience as a trans guy) Also adding to the betrayal and him calling her Judas.

And finally Max’s over performance of masculinity. Max is stereotypical toxic masculinity in human/ghost form. I think it at least started as overcompensating so people see him as a boy although soon after he just went mad with power. Pete mentions knowing him sense the fourth grade, Hatchetfield is a small town so while there are a few different schools a lot of the people at Hatchetfield High probably knew him before he transitioned and maybe even told the people who didn’t. It’s really hard to get people who knew you before you transitioned, especially cis people, to see you as your gender. So Max becomes the epitome of toxic masculinity, they have to see him as a guy now. Plus it’s pretty common for AFAB trans people to lean hard into masculinity at the start of their transition regardless of how they actually want to look.

Also us seeing Max shirtless doesn’t mean anything sense it’s all in Grace’s head, Grace might not even be aware Max is trans (after all who would tell her she doesn’t have friends)

Edit: I just remembered, Pete is hiding from Max in the boys bathroom, if Max is cis there’s no reason Pete would be safe there but if Max can only use the girls bathroom…

Hopefully this is the last fandom I'm going to be falling in this season

How the sides store their braincells:

Roman: in the fridge next to his pasta art

Virgil: in dark corner filled with dust

Logan: neatly stored on a shelf in display cases

Patton: in a big group hug in a get along t-shirt

Remus: on the side walk outside, in the sun, where they rot and fester

Janus: in a vault behind a painting that remus stole for him (it has a permanentmarker moustache)

Thomas: what braincells? The sides have them all

[sanders-sides-uncorrect-quotes]

[an0thergl1tch]

This is just a set of random headcanons about why Janus has a cane that I personally enjoy:

1 .Remus and Roman gives him arthritis with the amount of bullshit they put him through

2. Janus occasionally forgets he is not a snake and forgets he has human legs

3. Fashion, drama, pizazz

4. It’s funny as hell to yank people with it and drag Remus around like he’s on a leash

5. Janus is hungover, drunk, and sleep deprived as fuck constantly and needs stability

6. His emotions and stress weigh him down to the point of being in legitimate pain (oof angst)

7. It’s a nice to casually and seductively rest against at a vintage bar

8. Weapon

9. Charlie Chaplin kinnie

10. Shedding hurts and makes it a bitch to move sometimes

Some additional theories I just thought of :

11. Snakes are naturally cold blooded, however the bad thing about that to Janus is as long as he isn’t properly heated, his limbs will likely have reduced blood flow causing him to be unsteady

12. Snakes have a very different diet from humans, and considering he already has a pretty bad diet (90% red wine) he likely can’t get all the nutrients he needs and is heavily anemic which can make it easy for him to get dizzy

13. Yes I am hinting at POTS / orthostatic hypotension Janus (fun fact a snakes heart rate is only slightly lower than humans, ranging from about 52.61-83.19bpm)

14. Need I have to mention again being anemic as fuck (same)

The sides as emoticons:

Patton: 83

Logan: 8/

Roman: >:D

Virgil: >:/

Janus: >:)

Remus: >:{D

Alright I'm already in love with the whole cold-blooded Janus fanon-turned-canon fact we've got, and I still absolutely love the fic potential it has for putting Janus in a position for hurt/comfort by making him cold and therefore sick, but listen...

What about the opposite?

When it's warmer outside, reptiles like to sunbathe and soak up as much heat as possible, especially since the warmer they are, the more energetic they become.

And since Thomas lives in Florida, there's likely to be lots more warm days than there are cold, so I'm just thinking about Janus lounging outside in the sun for half the day, and while everyone else is miserable from the heat he's all lively and chipper.

All the other sides are sweaty and tired and just generally hating life, and even Logan can't bring himself to get any work done with how humid and unpleasant the weather is even indoors, then there's Janus practically prancing around the place with a smile because for him this is the best day ever.

(I also headcanon that it's a main reason he wears all black. Aside from it being fashionable and fitting with his aesthetic, it also helps to attract and hold in heat, which he finds really useful.)

Random SaSi Headcanons

Virgil's animal/animal trait is actually an armadillo (though he does share similarities to cats and spiders because of his introverted tendencies)

Orange can be a little shit (affectionately)

Janus uses his cane for chronic pain reasons, especially on higher pain days

Orange will call the Others by their colours instead of their names ( Janus would be Yellow, etc.) and following this pattern, calls c!Thomas "Rainbow"

Remus has a pet kraken on his side of the Imagination

Different places in the Mind (the Mindscape, the Imagination, everyone's room, the Mind itself, etc.) are all somewhat sentient

Mr. Fuzzy can purr, which helps Virgil calm down sometimes (Virgil will never admit this)

Logan knows how to draw out star-maps and read them; sometimes, he'll help the Creatives when they're making some sort of skyscape and he'll map it out

Patton and Remus enjoy puns together

Roman gets literal burnout, and Remus usually helps with it bc he understands as another Creative

When things get really overwhelming, Virgil will go to Janus for help; they never say anything to each other and won't talk about it afterwards

Virgil can be a bit of a mother hen when taking care of someone

A common way to show & receive affection/care between everyone is different forms of Gift-Giving

c!Thomas will try to put time aside to spend with his Sides, bonding, as an act of self-love

When Logan is ranting about something he's passionate about, his irises turn indigo and literally star-shaped

Logan normally has blue-grey eyes (outside of c!Thomas' perception of him)

The way c!Thomas perceives the Sides is how they look/act while around him, but may look/act a little different when he's not actively "seeing" them

The way the Sides act in videos is them intensifying themselves for the characters they play & are a bit calmer when not filming

Patton is a pretty good baker, but he struggles with cooking different things

The Sides take turns making dinner & Patton usually makes breakfast for everyone; everyone makes themselves lunch unless there's a special occasion

The twins host fun events in the Imagination to help keep everyone a little more entertained

Roman has a secret special place he goes to in the Imagination when he's really stressed; Remus is the only other one that knows about it

Nico Flores knows some things about Floriography and will rant to c!Thomas about it; c!Thomas loves listening to him

Sander Sides s2 Finale Theories

Hi,

A few days ago, I suddenly remembered Sander Sides exists and that I like it. I've been AWOL for a year or two, drifting in and out of the fandom BUT now, I have come back in full force. I am present, once again.

So, obviously, I have been wanting to see what other fans think of the series. Specifically, I want to find anyone theorizing on what will happen during the season 2 finale. Because, listen, I've been theorizing on what will happen since "Why Do We Get Out of Bed in the Morning," and that was when I was in middle school. So, obviously, my own theories have changed drastically and I want to know how others have as well.

So, please, if you have a theory, tell me all about it on this post (or any other way if you want)! I am eager to hear ANYTHING. I don't care if you do or don't have evidence, I want to know what you think will happen. You can even tell me what you think will occur to one specific character (I do/did it all the time to Roman, so I understand).

Please, let me know!

[the-bisexual-bitch]

I need more analogical in the headspace. I don't want AUs, I want my two Little Autistic Guys shoved together in the brainspace because Virgil is having a Bad Time and none of the more 'emotional' sides are available (they were helping Thomas or something), so Logan helps. Or Virgil just SPECIFICALLY wants to be around Logan.

I need more of them being specifically described in the brainspace and looking different from Thomas. I need more of them being mildly upset that they don't look like themselves when they're helping Thomas.

I need more of the darksides and lightsides being basically two weird semi-funtional poly relationships.

I need more of Virgil having been in an unhealthy relationship with one of the Darksides and thinking he got away from them

I need more of Janus actually biting people and having venom.

I need more angst around Virgil feeling like he's a poser who's actually Bad and undeserving of the care given to by the Lightsides

I need more of Virgil not liking the phrases "Darkside" and "Lightside"

I need more of Virgil feeling infantilized by Patton and Patton struggling to get it

I need more long essays written about One Line to read and be convinced by.

(Please recommend fics, artists, tumblr accounts, etc.. I'm begging you.)
