This fandom sometimes has a problem understanding the difference between canon, fanon, and headcanon. And sometimes it's harmless and sometimes it's not. Because it's one thing to have your own fun idea for why two side don't get along or to see a popular theory that people have and run with it. But, for example, "ducking out" was never canonically indicated to imply suicide (that's fanon), and nothing in canon actually supports Logan turning into the Orange side, or that one of the core sides would "turn evil" (that's all fan theory/au territory), and so a lot of people wind up basing further ideas on subtext that was never there except in fan content. And to give another *completely random* example, you can't just assert that shipping Anxceit is evil because "Janus is Virgil's abuser", because that is absolutely not canon. You made that up in your head.

Have people forgotten that videos that are neither main series episodes nor Asides episodes are not canon? They're just for fun. The sides are gonna act out of character in those videos just for fun. It's not gonna ruin the story

i honestly kinda feel like most ppls problems w current sanders sides are largely just... them having been disconnected from the source material for too long. like,,, ive been active in the fandom for 7 or 8 years now. & i rlly don't feel like the series has changed all that much?
sometimes i genuinely wonder how many people have watched the entire thing in one sitting. like. recently. i see a lot of complaints about how characters are entirely different or how it feels completely different as a show? but when you watch everything at once it kinda just feels like the natural progression of these characters and their dynamics, and the evolution of (irl) thomas's goals with the series.
obviously everyone is allowed to feel however they feel. it just hurts me a little that so many ppl seem so,, vitriolic? about it? it's been nearly 10 years now. thomas has gone from a young adult to a grown ass guy!! & i think it's rlly amazing that the series has grown and developed with him. like,,, it can't be 2017 forever. but i don't think that's a bad thing. if anything i think it's rlly lovely that this show has grown with us. idk!! food for thought, mayhaps,,,

it really annoys me to see everyone headcanoning king creativities name to be Romulus because um
Romulus killed his twin brother Remus and founded Rome.
At least to me, it's saying that no part of Remus existed at all. Not that it was all good before the split, but that there was no aspect of Remus at all in king creativity.

I'm not convinced that the orange side is gonna be justice. If he was, he would have never been a dark side with how much C!Thomas loves "good" values. Besides, isn't a sense of justice already covered by Patton, who is his Morality? Orange side feels more like something that's related to shame and anger. My guess is that he's either repression or self-judgement

I saw some people said Janus should have stayed a villain and that his redemption arc came out of nowhere... I get wanting the bad guy to stay bad, but the entire premise of Sanders Sides is solving personal dilemmas through understanding all parts of one's self. If Virgil could get redeemed, why can't the rest of the dark sides? Also Janus's redemption spanned several episodes instead of just 2 (3 if you count My Negative Thinking) like Virgil's. It absolutely didn't come out of nowhere. Maybe a bit rushed since he got redeemed right after his debut, but not out of nowhere
It feels like these people came back after the hiatus only for the nostalgia, and when they didn't like the new episode for whatever reason, they blamed it on Janus
Also in case some jackass decide to jump to conclusion, no I'm not a sympathetic Deceit fan or even a fan of him in general. I just hate stupid criticisms

It's my 2 year anniversary on Tumblr š„³

Month late but this is sooo fucked I thought itās already only been a year š
now this one pisses me off the most, steak fire anon again;
why is it that when it comes to gender hcs that differ from canon; the most accepted one as transfem in particular is janus? why is janus the most common tfem one? why not virgil? why not remus?
oh! i know why! its because canonically janus is the most "feminine" he's the most "queer" acting. obviously that means hes a trans woman.
just because a man, or a presumed man, is queer presenting or holds himself in a feminine manner DOES NOT mean he must be a tfem egg. people do this to Real People too not just characters; and full disclosure i have no problem with tfem hcs, i love them! especially when anti canon like tfem janus! i love tfem janus!! but why is that the only anti canon tfem hc people talk about in this fandom?? why dont we talk about tfem patton.
people dont see or acknowledge how different a trans person is after coming out as trans in any direction ever; how janus holds himself now has nothing to do if he might be a woman or not. and too many fanders see a slightlt femme man and jump to "/Shes/ So Gorgeous!!" "š„?" it gets really fucking annoying really quickly.
and im transfem (adjacent) myself! men should be able to be feminine without removing thier masculinity!! why is this so hard for people to grasp.
yes janus is a caricature of a drag queen at times. it is because hes a "dark" side of DECEIT and is being truthful to himself bc thomas cant stand to see the ugly (gay) truth <- at least in the past.
janus is the way that he is because hes also thomas' queer side. literally. he was shunned to the deciet role bc of how ingrained the homophobia was. saying janus and only janus is the only transwoman is a disservice to that characterization.
ty for coming to my ted talk.

i absolutely hate how certain hcs really can Tell You how op views the world:
for example, patton, being a foodie AND fat. commonly. the dark sides having "unattractive" features such as. a different nose bridge. and the following one i will elaborate on in my next ask.
anyways it goes to show how internalized stereotypes that are Quite Harmful to Real People seep through in tss hcs. "Ugh" is all i really have to say on the matter

this is probably a non-issue but with the revival of the sasi fandom it reminded me of smth that used a bother me a lot, so. yea
n e ways i remember back in the day people used to headcanon like, patton especially, but sometimes the other sides, as like? pan or straight. it always kind of rubbed me the wrong way cause like. thomas has always been decently open abt his struggles w being gay, esp in the new ep with the whole "ill just be another reason why gay couples dont work out" bit, and saying characters that are, essentially, a reflection of him would be in a hetero relationship felt weird 2 me
i feel like its different with genderbends or gender hcs in general, too? like ive always seen genderfluid janus and those are fine, but changing characters like (once again using patton as an example because it was most common with him) to straight always felt like they were erasing the fact that thomas, and c!thomas/his sides are queer. changing mlm to wlw or other/other etc was never an issue 4 me, either
ik you said you reserve the right to delete toxic ir otherwise rude submissions and im definitely not trying to be mean at all but this is kind of a big topic? so i understand if this gets deleted sorry i just remembered it and i needed to say it somewhere.
sorry this is kind of long

It's probably just because I'm afraid of change in general but the amount of activity in the sanders sides tag is almost scary to me. I mostly do AUs and I'm always reluctant to tag my posts with the main fandom tags because I feel like I'm annoying the people looking through it by being off-topic, but with the new episode it's even worse. I'm glad there's something to talk about, but I feel even more out of place than I did before. Everyone's posting about the new episode (rightfully! It's very fun! I love seeing those posts, I'm not complaining!) and I'm standing there waiting until things have calmed down so I don't feel like I'm interrupting everyone

(Also not limiting personal comments to tags for this- anon you should post anyways! You could put āsanders sides auā, āsasi auā, ect., and if people are that much bothered by it they can block. This sort of scenario is me scrolling through the main tag rn if anything, getting to see newly posted stuff.
Trust me Iāve main tagged for much less- stupid memes or live blogging. Do whatever you feel most comfortable with ultimately but just saying Iād love to see those aus!)
I was really anxious about me not liking the new ep or idk maybe that I wouldn't be as into tss as I was before but oh boy was I WRONG im injecting wids into my vains anyone wanna join me

I love seeing people come back to the fandom. The new episode did bring new life and energy to the place, but I really wish they wouldn't act like this place has been /dead/. There are so many wonderful people in this fandom who have stayed active, creating art, writing fics, running events, making animatics and edits fan games and more and it just...
I don't know, feels bad having the people who moved out come into your house and treat it like a graveyard. It's been quiet, yeah, but a lot of us still live here.
