And now that ive had a proper freakout
I wanna talk about the dark sides for a minute, because i have some ideas thanks to the new episode.
Going by the color theory but also my own theory that the dark sides are oppisite to one side but a twisted version of another side-
Wrath is the orange side, he is logan's oppisite, feelings over facts, rage that blinds you to reason, he wants whats right but he doesnt care how the goal is achived. Like the other dark sides, a little of him is useful, nessecery even, but too much and well...just look at logan. He lashes out trying to prove he's not a joke and only ends up making an argument for the oppisite. But he is still in a way, morality. He's fury over injustice happening, and he refuses to wait around or calmly debate or ask nicely.
Call me crazy but i think Thomas does a pretty good job of ignoring him.
Belive it or not he is the oppisite of Roman, despite everything about him seeming like a twisted version of patton. He is vain and self involved and wants what he cant have but unlike roman he doesnt let go, he never lets go, no amount of logic can make him. He is actually a twisted version of anxiety. You know when you worry youre not good enough dor your friends? And then this evil little brain goblin goes "i hate them for being better than me" even tho you dont hate them, youre just jealous.
Jealousy, envy, greed, pride, its all a part of hunger. Everyone wants what they cant have. But Roman only wants the best for Thomas. He wants to acheive thomas's dreams, not whatever he's craving at the moment. Hunger is a powerful distraction but it is just that, a distraction.
(For the record, Deceit being Patton's oppisite makes sense in this theory because he is very much a twisted version of logan. Intelligent but manipulative, smart but obscures the facts as he sees fit. After all deception is about having the knowledge and choosing how much of it to share and how.)
And just as a little sidenote, what if hunger is the dragon witch?
Anyway its pretty obvious Thomas hardly ever listens to these sides if they exist.
But that might change if Logan and Roman keep treating Patton like this.
He might have to make a deal with a certain dark side.
