THOMAS SANDERS SPOILERS!!!
Letās be fair, everyone is talking about the cutesie moments of Roman and deceit āflirtingā across the courtroom. THATāS NOT TODAY ON THIS BLOG. If you REALLY wanna see if this is true or feel it may be, rewatch the video or something. If it feels so important to tag Thomas or ā@ thatsthat24ā thatās all up to you. IN A REBLOG, FOLKS, as I myself would never pull him away from what heās doing.
This is about the sentencing. Yes, you read that right.
The sentencing is the ending moment of the court debate in which Roman is forced to sentence Thomas for his alleged crimes. Whilst, we all are aware that he was ānot sure what he was doingā, he made a memorable choice to me. Throughout the video it is a debate about whether to attend a wedding(Selfless) or attending a callback(Selfish). In the beginning, it is quickly made known of Deceitās presence as he acts out of character for the regular Logan(Logical thinking/Left brain). As Thomas realizes that Deceit perhaps has a reason to be here, he is allowed to stay. Ensue the debate.
The others believe Deceit is merely trying to get Thomas to admit to being a bad person. This, however, is not the case. In fact, even Deceit says so. Itās easy for them to excuse as Deceit being Deceit. Deceiving them into the assumption that there was more. However, littered through the courtroom debate reveals that even the others understand that there is more to it. In comes an analysis of it.
Deceit questions Virgil(Anxiety) as a witness, causing Virgil to state clearly āIām no beacon of truthā. Then again, who is, right? However, later on, in a scene with Roman(Creativity/Passion) and Patton(Morality/Honesty), conduct a small acting scene. Upon asking Romanās opinion on the details of it, he responds that it āwould not bother himā and that it ādoesnāt matterā. That humans are entitled to their own emotions, and not always to be tethered to acting on the behalf of others. That they live their own lives, and whilst we wish to indulged in their approving presence, we cannot force them. If a person would not be content, they should not be forced to attend a wedding.
All the while, Deceit is nodding and smiling. After all, he isnāt after guilt-tripping Thomas. Earlier on(yes this is all jumbled, apologies.) Deceit even questioned a very confused and surprised Logan. Upon asking his role in Thomasā personality, he stated that he is indeed more than just his logical thinking. He indulges in the other things he does, including primary oversight of the language center, director of activities for the right arm, and punctual behaviour on Thomasā behalf. When asked of his plans for the date of both the callback and the wedding, it is made clear that Logan himself prioritized the callback. Thomas himself stated that he was more interested in the callback, and that he was a bad person who was willing to deceive his friends to get away from the wedding. Believing it fulfilled Deceit, he made it clear that he was a ābad, selfishā person. Patton even makes it clear that he doesnāt have a clue what heās doing. He is trying his best to be there for Thomas. To steer him down a selfless path. Believing what he wants to be fact. Even telling Thomas āIām sorry I lied to you. I just told you what I wanted to be true.ā Thomas forgives and admits it wasnāt Pattonās fault at all for his actions. When found guilty, Thomas looks to Roman for a sentencing for his crimes. Roman, confused, and torn between emotions, asks what it means. When told that it a punishment or least favourable decision for the accused, he sentences Thomas to attend the WEDDING rather than the callback. While, we all could say it was a punishment to himself by choosing the wedding, he also punishes Thomas.
This entire ordeal greatly upset Deceit, which confuses the others, even Thomas. They say āisnāt this what you wanted? Me to admit Iām a bad person?ā And Deceit is fuming. It was not his intention at all. In fact, the opposite. He wanted to get Thomas to understand that he isnāt a bad person for attending the callback. It wouldnāt make him selfish, and can easily be explained away. He makes it known throughout the case that Lee and Mary Lee shouldnāt stop Thomas from achieving his dreams. That they shouldnāt hold him back. He believes Thomas should be able to admit that he had a callback. That passion can sometimes interfere with morality, and that it can be good for you mentally in some cases. He never seems to get that point across, but decides not to press the matter further, growing sly once more.
What do I gain from this? Not just ālisten to deceit you jerksā or āDeceit can be goodā or even ālying is sometimes okayā. What I get is that there IS more to Deceit. As Logan and Roman unconsciously side with Deceit, it is made clear. It wasnāt Deceit convincing or manipulating them to believe him. It was them unknowingly understanding his point. As told from Logan, he is not JUST one thing. There is more to every side. Deceit was trying to spare Thomas an increase in his depression. He was trying to HELP. Yet, they pushed him aside and didnāt believe or trust him due to preconceived ideas of him. Due to his name literally meaning āliesā, they thought every word was(as Logan would put it) Falsehood. Yet Deceit is part of every one of them in a small way. Even Patton and Logan. Itās easy to see that even āemotionlessā sides like logic can prioritize things their creator wants more. Like the callback. Despite having known about the wedding far longer, Thomas prioritized the callback. It was important to him. So it was important to Logan. Thus, being on the calendar instead of the wedding.
Deceit isnāt bad here. Heās just misunderstood. Misinterpreted. Cast aside as a liar. This cruel, honest mistake could cost them to lost Deceitās merciful kindness. Though, he is not bad. Merelyā¦painfully helpful. When Thomas sees him, he knows heās lied. He knows heās either received or delivered misinformation. Deceit is helpful. Not āevilā.
But I suppose thatās all I have. A thing Iāve thought of in the shower. I hope youāve enjoyed your stay. While youāre here, why donāt you check out my blog?
