I made a deal with Logan that if he opened an ask blog, that I too would open one.
A deal that I… totally expected I’d have to honor.
Anyways,
I can be your snake in shining armor for any advice you so desperately need to hear.
To keep this blog organized, unlike Remus's dumpster fire of a room, there will be the following tags in place:
#ooc-post - Out of character posts from Mod TJ
#deceitful-answers - Questions about specific things that you are looking for answers to
#snake-sympathy - Asks looking for comfort or the like, I try to be truthful when needed
#generic-janus - General asks/posts about myself, the other sides, etc, though I'm not sure why you'd ever want to talk about them
#reptile-rps - Finished story roleplays with the other sides (this tag will be added after the fact)
Any triggers will be tagged when appropriate
A couple more unimportant things
I'll be using this divider to indicate when my gloves are off:
(@/strangergraphics)
And this divider to indicate that they are on (You definitely won't be seeing a lot of this one):
(@/saradika)
If there’s no header, assume gloves are on.
I believe this is everything I need to say, but I'm sure Virgil won't lecture me about Tumblr etiquette again next time I see him.
Well, farewell to all, until we meet again - ✨🐍
~~~
Hey, Mod TJ here. My friend Blue runs the @logan-inquiries account, and I decided to make one too because it seems really fun (so you'll probably see us interact a lot)
Few things to mention:
My time zone is CST, but I do stay up late a lot, so I don't really have a schedule for this. Just gimme a couple days, I’ll answer as soon as I can. (but even if its the middle of the night, you can send in an ask anytime)
I use It/He pronouns
I am not an expert in the Sanders Sides lore, but I have been in the fandom for a While (way back in Vine days). So if I get something wrong, oopsies, this is just for fun
I am cool with any ships (including polycules), except for remrom
Warning, there will be uncensored potty language in these posts that will not be marked (thomas quote wahoo)
To explain the whole divider/gloves thing if you're unsure: When Janus has his gloves on, he could be truthful or lying. When they're off, she is definitely telling the truth
Any Janus headcanons I have that might affect this blog I'll put here (this'll be updated when needed): Janus uses He/She pronouns
As for triggers/boundaries:
I will delete asks if I feel they go against these boundaries, or just generally make me uncomfortable. I will not judge the person sending them, I'll simply delete them and move on (unless it becomes a repeated behavior)
I am ok with asks about general advice about suicide/self-harm/eating disorders, but please no in-the-moment stuff. Please do not send an ask if you are in immediate danger of anything, specifically self-inflicted. I am not 911 or a helpline
Like I said, I am cool with ships/flirting, but I do not want any explicit sexual content/smut on this blog. However I am not against a good dirty joke
There shouldn't be any explicit blood/gore, but there may be some Remus-style intrusive thought depictions, and those will be tagged accordingly

Logan, dear, would you want to go on another walk together? I have a couple things I’d like to… discuss.
It’s your job to pick the scenery this time, I can’t do everything for you.
- @dont-ask-janus
Janus. Hello. I... am quite busy at the moment, but...
[After a moment of thought, Logan steps outside of his room.]
I'd be happy to spare some time for your thoughts. Follow me?
[He leads Janus to the Imagination entrance, tapping the doorframe. He looks pensive and careful. Eventually, he nods, satisfied, and the entrance morphs into a thick, dark oak wood, entangled in vines.]
I hope this is comfortable. Let us walk?
[He motions towards the door, allowing Janus to enter first. It's an overdone cliche and he knows it, but he kind of wants to see how she reacts.]
[He snorts a bit at the chivalry comment, but nods regardless. With a flourish, he pushes open the door.]
Let's take a walk.
[Inside is a massive, lush forest. A squirrel scurries past their feet, drawing attention to a gnarled path in the center. It's a narrow opening, almost claustrophobic at spots, and it smells like nature and the thick scent of wild grass and flowers.]
Privacy is a rare commodity, but I believe this should suffice. No one can hear us here.
Ah. It's... well. My experiences are intrinsically linked with Thomas's, as are yours, so... this is my greatest recollection of the forest beside his grandparent's house, when he was very young. It is likely faulty in some ways, but Thomas saw it as a magical thing. I did my best to recreate it.
So. Shall we walk?
[He holds out an elbow, the picture of chivalry, in offering.]
--
[ooc: don't worry I've been crazy busy too but it's fun to come back to regardless :> also I had no clue about which forest to talk about so I Made Some Shit Up. yes and motherfucker]
[He takes Logan's arm, smiling softly while looking around at the trees]
He would come out here every chance he got. Roman and Patton got to go wild, daydreaming about being a knight in shining armor. You were analyzing every stick, trying to find the perfect sword.
You had a stick up your ass then, just as you have one now.
[She turns to him, smiling and suddenly holding a glass full of wine]
One that helped us out of many situations, though as usual, they all listened to Virgil more than me. I could tell them the wild mushrooms were poisonous, but Anxiety had to scare them out of eating any either way.
[He sighs, but shakes it off.]
We're... working on it. That is what's important, I believe. Everyone is trying.
[Logan walks forward with her, calmly. He doesn't push; just waits for him to speak when she's comfortable.]
[He nods... for a bit too long, trying to mask his emotions]
...Is that what's important, Logan?
I'd assume that being logic, you'd believe in more of a... karmic worldview.
If you've done bad things, you must make up for them in order to not be bad.
[She's rambling now, talking quickly to distract from the fact that she's talking about herself]
Like all of your scientists and philosophers you care so much about. They weren't good people, plenty of them were god-awful douchebags. And they weren't even hiding it!
But because they contributed so much to the world, they get to be remembered as the best of the best. They at least somewhat have made up for their wrongdoings. They succeeded at being good enough.
So why is trying to be better what's important? Shouldn't those who try but fail be punished all the same?
[She realizes she's been talking for a while, and looks at the ground]
You have a fair point, Janus. If we are to view the world in this karmic light, then yes--one has to even out the good with the bad. Similar to how one might cut a dangerous chemical with water to lessen its effects.
[He stops, then, and turns to face her fully, arms crossed and no judgement on his face.]
But it's important to remember that we--all of us, including you--are not chemicals. We aren't simplified substances, we aren't molecules of one thing.
We are not pure. It isn't possible to be.
[Logan pauses, and breathes, focusing his words.]
In the same way that old rhetoric of "two wrongs don't make a right" outlines, one wrong and one right don't make a positively neutral outcome--a net zero, if you will--because they are two entirely different subjects. It would be like adding imaginary and normal numbers. Like oil and water. They don't mix, they don't combine, they don't make an equilibrium.
So in the same way that one cannot make up for all their wrongdoings, neither can they dilute their righteous actions. They have to be viewed separately, and with relevance to their beginnings.
I apologize. What I am trying to say is, intentions matter.
[He offers a hand.]
What's bothering you, Janus? I'm not asking you to speak plainly, but don't stop yourself from speaking--I want to know.
Logan, I'm happy not being with all of you. I mean that to say, I'm happy being a "dark side", because I do my job. And I can't do that job if I am on the same level as you.
But... sometimes I can't help but wonder, what if?
Then I stop wondering, because if Thomas sees his deceit as good, then everything goes to hell.
[He takes a deep breath]
Sometimes I want to talk to everyone. Just a normal conversation. No ulterior motives. No... deceit.
[ooc: sorry for taking so long, school and sickness is kicking my ass lol]
*Patton put his cat hood up, it was one of the things that made him feel better* "it feels like my advice doesn't help anybody anymore..." *Patton mumbled his voice barely audible*.
Patton listened intently to Janus, his knees still pulled up to his chest, nodding gently. "I just want to help everyone the best I can... even if it doesn't always hit the mark, it's the thought that counts, right?" He lifted his gaze from his knees, offering Janus a appreciated smile.
Normally, Patton would rush to hug anyone who offered him comfort, but boundaries he didn't wanna make Janus uncomfortable, taking the cookie, "Thanks Janus. I appreciate it alot."

Ello Decei- er- Janus! I made…progress! With Logan! He’s angry, he knows he’s angry, and we’re gonna work on that! Any idea where I put my flash cards? Just- in case I need them. To show to him!
@orangelo-sanders
Orange, darling, I know how much you love antagonizing Logan. I mean, I enjoy it too.
However, I must ask for you to... leave him alone for the time being.
Not because I care or anything, of course not. I just...
[he thinks for a moment, before an idea hits him]
I'd like to be the one terrorizing him for a bit. That's all, dear.
[ooc: btw you have full reign to not listen to janus lol]

OUT OF CHARACTER, AAAA I DUNNO! I haven’t done anything in people’s ask boxes because I haven’t wanted to be irritating and honestly I’ve got no ideas🥲 but it’s not just me noticing everyone’s been less interact-y lately?
[OOC: I apologize! I'm adjusting to college, lol. Please don't be afraid to send things to my ask box, I truly don't mind in the slightest--it just might take time to get to it, but I love it all the same. Again, I'm sorry!! I'll try to stay in the swing of things.]
[Also, @dont-ask-janus is in the same boat too! He's still around, and likely just real busy.]
