Stuff I’ve written for Sanders Sides
A lot of what I’ve written is on my other blog and therefore kind of hard to find, and I realized that some people might prefer to read my fics on AO3 instead of tumblr, so I made this masterpost! I hope you like it.
janus intentionally & unnecessarily choosing to act like a cartoon villain whenever he's around and then getting frustrated when the others treat him like one is one of the funniest things about him. king of creating his own problems
[image description: six colorful masks in the style of Commedia Dell’arte. The first is red with golden swirls, a red ribbon and spikes reminiscent of a crown, and is labelled ‘IL PRINCIPE’. The second is light blue with a rainbow string, upquirked eyes, and a single tear running down the side of the face, labelled ‘PADRE’. The third, blue and blocky with simple geometric designs, labelled ‘INSEGNANTE’. The fourth, black with a spiked birdlike nose, shading beneath the eye holes, and patchwork violet details, labelled ‘INQUIETO’. The fifth is a yellow halfmask with snakelike decals and a crack that runs across the bottom, lavelled ‘IL SERPENTE’. The final mask is green and grotesque, with a large nose, huge eyes, and a moustache, and spiky wires emerging from the top - labelled ‘IL DUCA’. End image description]
A continuation of the thoughts from my post about AU fanfiction as modern Commedia Dell'arte - here's the sides as vaguely Commedia-esque masks. Presenting: the archetypal cast of Commedia dell'lati!
IL PRINCIPE, the prince, a more thoughtful descendant of the swaggering Il Capitano archetype. He's often seen with his distinctive red sash, and occasionally a bladed weapon. Il Principe is prideful, sometimes to a fault, and deeply romantic.
PADRE, the father, representing family values and an apparent moral compass. Often played as somewhat naive or foolish - sometimes portrayed at hiding something more devious beneath that, depending on the show and situation. He's recognizable by his fondness for wordplay, and his cheerful attitude.
INSEGNANTE, the teacher, the unlistened-to voice of reason, the provider of exposition. His misunderstandings of common metaphorical phrases are frequently the source of comic relief. It's a common plot point for him to be pushed to his limit and snap, revealing genuine emotion behind his mask of impenetrable reason.
INQUIETO, the restless one - the devil's advocate, quick to voice the negatives of a situation and recommend doing something, anything else. Often takes the role of 'jerk with a heart of gold' - frequently is the recipient of misfortune. A key part of his character is his sharp wit and sarcasm against every other member of the cast.
IL SERPENTE, the snake, is cunning and deceptive by nature. He will often emerge onto the stage in the guise of another character, having stolen their mask offstage. The inevitable reveal where he produces his true mask and slots it onto his face is always met with delighted applause. Il Serpente was originally often depicted as the villain of many productions and still sometimes is, although many recent shows have taken to treating him in a much more sympathetic light.
Finally, IL DUCO, the duke - the brother and mirrored counterpart of Il Principe. Some shows choose to tone down his original conception as a graphic and grotesque provider of foul language in order to make him easier to portray, or easier to sympathize with. Other shows turn up the crassness all the way, and make him downright villainous in nature. Il Duco is, chronologically, the most recent addition to the archetypes, but has quickly found his way into being a beloved and fascinating part of many performances.
One of the things separating the more modern Commedia dell'lati from its predecessor, Commedia dell'arte, is its willingness to play with character dynamics. The plots and settings are never certain from one show to the next, and neither are the relationships between the characters. Il Serpente and Inquieto could be in a committed relationship on one stage, and at each other's throats fighting to the death on another - although, it should be noted, the two are never mutually exclusive. Sometimes the morality of characters are black-and-white, sometimes it's all in strokes of grey, but it's all in the name of exploring new aspects of these beloved familiar archetypes.
Everything's fluid when it comes to Commedia dell'lati - but always recognizable, however distant.
Let’s talk about 16th century Italian theatre.
No wait come back I promise this is actually related to Sanders Sides
So, last night I was talking with some friends about an AU I’m currently working on. I’ve been away from the Sanders Sides fandom for a good while now, but recently my hyperfixation reactivated and now my brain is so ready to write a ridiculously long longfic with a convoluted premise and horrifying implications. (I’m like 25k in. Having the time of my life. No doubt I’ll talk about it more later. This isn’t about that.)
Since I’m not the sort of person who usually writes AUs - I prefer to stick to canonverse, and canonverse-adjacent fics - I eventually brought up how worried I always am about characterization of the Sides in AUs. Because although I do adore an AU; I devour Love and Other Fairytales like candy and think about Lavender For Luck all the time and don’t even get me started on WIBAR, when it comes to my own writing, I secondguess myself a lot. I don’t like to stray too far from canon concepts and characterization. I get worried when I don’t draw enough connections to things that happen in the series, because it feels like a betrayal of the source material - if I change a character dynamic from how it’s usually portrayed, I spend entirely too long thinking about how to make it work.
And someone else said, well, I don’t usually worry about that sort of thing very much anymore.
And I said, why not?
And they said, well, I haven’t watched the actual show for ages. I mainly treat the Sides as stock characters for the stories I write, and my brain fucking exploded.

[id: a drawing of janus sanders standing in front of a shattered mirror. he stands with his back facing the viewer and holds a cane, looking back at the viewer. the space where his face should be is entirely blank. the mirror shows the other sides and different symbols for them in the shards. in clockwise order, it shows patton with white feathers and a cross, remus with bloody mirror shards and a pile of skulls, logan with a star and a few eyes, roman with a sun and swords, and virgil with black teardrops and a lightning strike. the very bottom of the mirror shows a yellow snake, a trident, and a green apple with a bite taken out of it. end id]
mirror, mirror
ver. without janus under cut
Woahh
i have to know
Sanders Sides fans !!!! please !!!! tell me who ur fave is !!
and also reblog !!!! please !!!
I’m starting to suspect that the only way to get my fics written is to write them
I need more adult sanders sides ppl up in this bizsnatch so-reblog this Only if you are 18+ and in the sanders sides fandom
I do Not mean "I turn 18 in a few-" no, schedule the post for then, then. Also do Not mean "I’m mature for my age!" Bestie I am so sorry someone told you that
Idk it just makes me uncomfy when I go to interact with nsfw sanders sides stuff just to discover "this is a minor, a minor wrote this" it just hhhhhhh nooooooooo, not comfy talking that kinda stuff with minors when I myself am an adult
“This is philosophy class?” says Virgil incredulously.
“Oh, it’s far more than that!” Deceit exclaims gleefully. “This, fellow Sides and esteemed Thomases, is the trolley problem!”
Do yourself a favor and read Pick A Side by @sometimes-love-is-enough I had SUCH a good time reading it and this scene had me rolling on the floor!! I made this in like 2 days my hand hurts a lil bit
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
I think the reason that sanders sides is so easy to form a fandom around is because the characters are so simple.
They took a guy and simplified him into six different pieces via an unconventional therapy technique and gave them all gay little costumes. Ready made little man shaped vessels to project all of your feelings onto.
You’ve got; emo, dad, nerd, hero, evil twin, and guy that lies and wears bowler hat. And even after character arcs that is still most of what they are.
Simple. Easy to understand. All have the same face. Can canonically shapeshift. Project all of your insecurities onto these literally cartoonish color coded weirdos.
Oh I forgot about the cosplay aspect as well.
These guys cover every part of the effort spectrum when it comes to cosplaying.
Do you wanna slap something together last minute? Two characters are just polo shirt and accessory.
Wanna make like one special piece as a weekend project? Purple guy is perfect for that.
Wanna make or buy an elaborate costume complete with medieval fantasy weapons? Two characters will do that for you.
Wanna do an elaborate makeup job? Guess what? There’s a guy for that.

YOU HAVE ENTERED
SATURDAY
It's Friday tho
saw someone saying that assigning posts to fictional characters is lame. that’s not lame. that’s what makes us human
what separates us from the animals is that we are capable of looking at a post online and saying “that’s blorbo from my shows”
Attention Content Creators
There’s a new Situation and because of this Situation I can’t even tag anyone to spread the word. I was recently informed that as of about 18 hrs ago at this point (Jan 1st, 1pm EST) NO NEW POSTS are showing up in ANY tag search on ANY browser/app. I’ve checked this to confirm.
Myself and many others have noticed that posts have been taking a very long time to show up in tags these past fews days (my last post took about 5 hrs). Yesterday around 2pm EST staff reported they were aware of the issue and were working on a fix. This new development appears to have started around 7pm EST, which leads me to believe it’s a result of the “fix” that’s currently in progress. Unfortunately this has made the already bad situation impossibly worse in the meantime.
I have no idea how long this will be an issue but you may want to hold off on posting any new content until it’s sorted out.
so logan is the only one whos ever actually tried to walk away from the camera instead of sinking down right?
what if in the next episode logan just leaves the house entirely.
the next episode is all the sides and thomas confusedley and frantically running around in public asking everybody if they’ve seen the human impersonation of logic anywhere
eventually they find him in a bar downing vodka and ranting to this random dude sat next to him
For every hour he’s gone, Thomas progressively loses more braincells and makes even stupider decisions.
They try to find Janus because he’s the last brain cell but he’s on the roof somehow
After a few hours of loosing braincells,Thomas starts picking up manhole covers, making clicking noises with his tongue like he’s calling a cat and in a high pitched noise calling “Logi, Logi, Logi - c’mere, where are you? Logi Logi”
I couldn’t resist. 1.8k of Remus streaking, Thomas enabling people to commit identity fraud, everyone being in love with Janus, and Logan befriending a very special guest under the cut.
“You know what?!” Logan snapped. “Fine. Fine. If you are going to continue this obstinate, defiant behavior, I refuse to partake any longer.”
“All Patton did was say a broken pencil has no point, Specs,” Roman said.
Logan took a deep breath, letting the horror of the moment settle over him afresh. “Right. Well. I believe that I need a moment to connect myself.” He nodded cordially. “If you’ll excuse me.”
Then he turned around and walked out of the house.
