SomewhereBetween Patton&Virgil

i was spared

-At some point Logan gets so fed up he makes the others do a DNA test with him just to confirm they are on no way related. He prints out the results and carries them with him at all times.

-Roman: *insert whatever side you want here* is super attractive tbh Random student: You look almost identical Roman: Exactly.

-Virgil introducing his friends: This is _____. Yes, we have the same last name, no we aren’t related. Yes, we look similar; we still aren’t fucking related.

-Logan used to rarely get confused with the others as he was the only one with glasses, but then Patton ended up needing glasses and picked the same. God. Damn. Frames.

-They all have incredibly specific outfits and color schemes to keep from getting confused with one another. Once Patton tried to shake it up and wear a black shirt and all day he got “Love the new shirt, Logan!”

-Adding on to the switching places: Patton and Roman do that a lot. They find it hilarious and every day people squint at them to see if they switched places again. Virgil and Logan can’t understand how people mix them up because they’re around them so often.

Teachers always mix students up - even if they don’t look alike

A teacher who just taught Roman, and now has a class with Virgil in it: “Rom-Vi-No. Patton? Virgil? …..Mr.Sanders!”

Teachers with 2 or more or ALL in class:

“So…can I say “Sanders 1, 2, 3, and 4-?”

All: “NO!”

(its really annoying when they do that)

“Haha maybe if one of you dyed your hair or something…That’d help haha”

“Can someone take homework for….whichever Sanders isn’t here today I’m not even going to guess”

“Lo-Vir-Ro-Pat….. I’m gonna point at one of you and will that student come up to the board please”

Logan is leading them into the class room and just stops. He then turns to the door and starts banging his head on it. Virgil is next and looks into the room to see what caused this. And just let’s out “WHY DOES THE UNIVERSE HATE US!?”

Patton and Roman are confused. What’s going on? So they look around the two and that’s when they see it.

Right there on the white board.

Mr. Sanders

And there sitting startled behind the teacher’s desk is a man who looks like he could be their father.

Thomas looking so confused at a pack of teenage doppelgangers and being so lost about what to do. The whole class just staring at the lot of them and some brave soul works up the courage to ask if Mr. Sanders is related to any of the teen sanders only to get all five of them to answer back “No,” in unison in various tones of disbelief, frustration, and resignation. 

Thomas turns out to be pretty good at telling the boys apart and seems to gain their respect, making the group of unrelated Sanders grow to five as they all try and escape to his room when they’re bored or annoyed. They all groan when he reveals he has reading glasses, with the exact same frames as Logan and Patton that he doesn’t usually wear. 

they all meet because they all visit the library for different reasons and settle into completely different areas. patton came for the computers to finish an essay but got distracted by small animal videos and is constantly reprimanded by the librarian for squealing until finally they raise their voice saying “MR. SANDERS” and they get four different responses

virgil once was so fed up with getting confused with the others that he just response to every name

roman got a secret admirer letter and was so touched until he read “i love you, patton”

logan went a whole day with everyone calling him roman and he DID N O T understand why but later found out that roman ran out of contacts and had to wear his glasses that (surprise surprise) were the exact same frames as him

After the original teacher comes back from maturity leave they decide to move. A new job was offered to them that was in another state. Roman, Logan, Patton and Virgil were sad to see their teacher go and wondered who would be the replacement? So that Friday they gave the tacher a farewell party and said goodbye. (Patton made a cake for them)

They each decide to style their hair differently and it turns out they had the same idea and they all come with the same hair style - sans Virgil who has a lot more of an emo-fringe than the others.

Patton and Roman have styled themselves exactly the same before to mess with the school. It backfired because everyone still mixed them up with Logan and Virgil.

Logan has a name badge. People ignore it.

When they get their homework returned, they all have to meet up after class and swap so they’ve got the right grades. Logan almost had a heart attack when he got a paper back and found he had only gotten a C, until he noticed the name Virgil Sanders at the top. That prompted him to offer Virgil study sessions, and he found out Virgil was actually really clever, he just didn’t have the energy to try that day.

Swapping for each other in detention and not getting caught. Also swapping for each in detention and getting caught, and subsequently both having detention.

The eternal frustration of having to explain “NO I’m not Logan/Roman/Virgil/Patton and NO I do not have an overdue library book now please let me check this out!”

Teacher: You went to the bathroom ten minutes ago. Lo/Ro/Virg/Pat: No that was Lo/Ro/Virgi/Pat.

Group projects. Enough said. 

•the teacher calls out a mister sanders, they all perk up and stare at the teacher, waiting for clarification. The teacher is terrified the first time this happens.

•someone just walks up to one of them, before staring in horror as the other turn and look at them as well.

•"wait, theirs ANOTHER ONE????? Are you guys clones or something?“

•"hey logan, hey… other Logan?????”

Pepole end up calling them the sanders sides, simply as a catchy way to refer to all of them.

•"wait, I didn’t know you had a brother. Why didn’t you tell me?“

“I DON’T!!!”

“That is the third person this week saying that to you, and you still say you aren’t popular. What’s up with that?”

So here's the thing, there's a girl in my school, we look nothing alike, act nothing alike, and don't even have the same names. But our names are both 'words' (Faith, Hope, Joy, etc) and so everyone is always mixing us up.

So like one day the four do go and get their hair died different colors. They go shopping and get outfits that don't look remotely similar.

They go to school on Monday... And everyone still mixes them up.

They kind of give up on trying to be noticably different after that.

Ah yes, I’m describing this area, and while doing so make a casual reference to the last great war the land has seen, as it is relevant to the description of this landscape– 

wait have I mentioned the war in the story yet???

*Has to go back and read the previous chapters to make sure I mentioned the war*

First draft for fanmade Sanders Side character Lust!
