« Et pour quelles raisons étranges / Les gens qui n'sont pas comme nous / Ça nous dérange ? Et pour quelles raisons étranges / Les gens qui pensent autrement / Ça nous dérange ? Et pour quelles raisons étranges / Les gens qui tiennent à leurs rêves / Ça nous dérange ? »
Michel Berger
Is not this the ultimate monstrosity of the truth - that it relies on a pre-ontological obscene idiosyncratic scenario, so that if this scenario is no longer operative, truth itself disintegrates? The paradox is thus that, far from simply deranging/distorting the ‘proper balance of things’, fantasy at the same times grounds every notion of the balanced Universe: fantasy is not an idiosyncratic excess that deranges cosmic order, but the violent singular excess that sustains every notion of such an order.

MKKK can u elaborate on ur janus/orange dynamic.... i am intrigued... - @transfemlogan
I would LOVE to. Goddd i have so many thoughts. Buckle up everyone this is gonna be a long one
Icarus was actually the first to "join" the dark sides- janus started the whole thing shortly after The Split™️ (which i'll probably get into eventually).
Their early relationship was really just a matter of survival, in the midst of a mindscape in crisis mode- it's the reason icarus agreed to being hidden away in the first place, though he'd deny having ever agreed to it at all.
For the first year or so, it's just the two of them, stewing in a lot of doubt and frustration and bitterness and regret. Once remus enters the picture, things start to finally balance out, as he brings some much needed levity and distraction into the dynamic.
After that, they've pretty much settled into their main dynamic, the one featured in my early 20s stuff.
All icarus has ever wanted is to be listened to. His whole life, he's been ignored, disregarded, hidden away, forgotten. It's for this reason that icarus fucking despises janus- as far as he knows (or believes), janus the reason for everything that's ever gone wrong in his life. Icarus hates everything that janus represents, and he'd love nothing more than to put that asshole in his place.
(Little does he know, janus has already done it himself.)
Janus knows what icarus wants. He also knows that as long as he has everything under control, icarus has no way to fight back, or get out. He has an ironic bit of sympathy for icarus- he knows what it's like to feel powerless, to be disregarded. When it really comes down to it, they're in the very same boat. But janus being janus, he's allergic to telling people anything, so he just lets icarus think whatever he wants to think. There's nothing wrong with a comforting lie, after all. And at least it keeps him occupied.
Now let's jump ahead a bit.
*i love you like an alcoholic starts playing*
Season 2 is where their dynamic really starts to get juicy. After.. *gestures at virgil* events happen, all bets are off. Janus reveals himself, he gets what he's always wanted, and best of all, he still has everything under control- everything being icarus. At least, that's what he thinks.
Icarus is currently in the middle of transitioning from "it's so over" to "we're so back", thanks to his newly discovered escape route named logan. After years of watching from the sidelines, as everyone else gets what he's always wanted, he finally has a way out- and you bet your ass his number one priority is to make janus regret everything. (And his number two priority is probably to have a kickass musical number whilst doing so.)
What i really love about their dynamic is the familiarity of it. This established back-and-forth they have, this endless battle that they've just grown accustomed to. It's the epitome of "unstoppable force vs immovable object". Because at the end of the day, they're both driven by a sense of duty- a devotion, an obsession, even. They're both completely committed to their goals, and they're eachother's biggest threats.
They're stuck in this never-ending cycle because it's who they are. Neither of them will ever back down, no matter the cost. And if they go down, they'll go down together.
After all, anything's worth it for him, isn't it?
Been compiling my thoughts about all the possible icarus ships and their dynamics. Heres what ive got so far, copypasted directly from my notes 👍
Lorange
-the classic.
-the closest thing to homoerotic two aroaces can be
-nerd x jock but they're both in their 30s
-constant tie-pulling and glasses-stealing
-icarus LOOOVES getting in his personal space
-debates on the regular (more like debates)
-"the only person icarus will always listen to and the only person who will always listen to him" <- quote from one of my tags
-icarus is so fucking invested in this guy's life
-"i can fix radicalize him."
-its me boy im the ps5 speaking to you inside your brain
Morange

-icarus learns about patton's whole situation and he's just like What the fuck. Dude i straight up just thought you were evil but this is way more fucked up??
-they probably do a lot of cooking/baking together
-making smores with icarus's fire powers
-patton is a constant supplier of spongebob bandaids
-"he asked for no pickles!!"
Royange
-this would never happen. Anyways
-this ship is a biohazard. Keep everyone else as far away as possible
-their entire relationship is a competition
-icarus wants to put roman in his place so badly. And i think we should let him ❤️
-calling him princess as an insult
-icarus for sure has a weirdass sense of superiority about being a better "brother" than roman is
-they have so much in common and icarus hates it
-they would serve so much cunt together if they didn't absolutely despise eachother
Oranxiety
-anxceit with extra steps
-he was an emo. He was a punk. Can i make it any more obvious
-doing eachothers makeup while listening to nirvana or some shit on full blast
-ive said this before but virgil for SURE had the biggest crush on icarus when they first met
-virgil has a type and its people who could absolutely just beat him up
-icarus teaches virgil how to fight
-their post-acceptance dynamic is messy as hell and so interesting to think about
Derange
-NUCLEAR levels of toxic yaoi
-"i can't believe we're both communists anarchists!" "I'm goth and trans" -virgil
-i made a whole longass post about this one so i'll leave it at that.
-you know if you think about it janus's hand trick is kind of like a muzzle who said that.
-you know if you think about it his strings are kind of like a leash hello. Whos there.
Rerange
-bros with benefits
-besties since childhood
-always doing dumb shit together
-god thomas made us best friends because he knew our moms he couldn't handle us
-remus is the only thing keeping icarus sane

-i love the image of the two of them composing/choreographing icarus's obligatory musical number together (remus is the backup singer)
-they have the craziest freakiest sex imaginable (neither ever leaves unscathed) (they'll do it anywhere but in bed)
-biting for sure
Thorange
-holyyy fuck.
-lots of mixed feelings at first, takes a while to get used to eachother's presence
-icarus does a mental reset every time thomas acknowledges him
-separation issues for sure
-scary dog privilege
-thomas does not want scary dog privilege.
-"thomas. I love you. But for the love of god can you please lock the fuck in"
