“They didn’t expect to fall in love.”

Basically these three are aliens who have been sent to Earth to learn about their cultures through music. On their planet, all emotions are felt through expression of music. they don’t realize humans are different! When they are not learning through their secret identities, they head to a club owned by Thomas Sanders where they’ve parked their spaceship in his back yard and basically he agreed to let them stay so long as they help him at his work where they sing DJ and drum. 

Virgil, who had been crushing on his teacher all semester, finally tries to work up the courage to ask him out but alas Logan (who has been disguised as a professor) doesn’t understand the hint. Depressed, Patton drags him, Remy and Emile to dance and that’s where Virgil sees Logan and is like WAIT MY STUFFY TEACHER IS A DJ?!

And he gets all excited and works up the courage to ask if he can play with them on stage! Logan of course takes this as a DATE because sharing music is very intimate and only close friends do it but adding music to the score?!! THAT’S LIKE GETTING KISSED!!! 

DO NOT REPOST.

Commissioned @sweetest-honeybee​ to draw my Sanders Sides DJ Aliens! She did SUCH an amazing job, she even got their weird leg anatomy right!! <3

ROM&CE (Roman), B@ckBe@t (Deceit) and DJ L0GIX (Logan) in all their Alien glory!!

Logan’s alien form in the Secret DJ AU! 

The Species:

His species is polymorphic in that each individual can change a singular aspect about themselves. In Logan;s case, he can morph into having four arms for better mixing. Roman, who is also one of his species, can alter his voice so that he can have melody and harmony at the same time when he sings. Their species is musical in that they express emotions mostly through the sharing of music and song in some fashion. When you find a song that goes well with yours it’s like destiny so when Virgil asks if they can make music together it’s actually an intimate moment of sharing their feelings even if Virgil doesn’t at first recognize that’s what’s happening. When Patton sings with Roman in a duet Roman absolutely assume they’re in love because he basically professed his affections for him. 

They tend to have speaker-like organs somewhere on their person that act both as sound amplifiers and also as ears and beat projectors hear sound very differently. Logan’s are on his feet which handle beats and in place of his ears, however he has tech around them to amplify and alter the sounds to be louder which changes the beats as he taps his foot or changes the synth quality to his tones. 

Roman has these kinds of speaker organs on his back which help change his vocal range.

Dee has them on his hands and feet and uses them specifically for amplifying his drumming beats. 

The Tattoo:

In his alien form, Logan;s tattoo floats above his arm because it’s ingrained with tech that he uses to disguise himself as a human (y’all can thank @pendulumtess for that idea). It’s got the same phrase written in his language but it’s all the same: “It’s A Planet Dammit” because what kind of world doesn’t recognize Pluto as a planet??? Roman and Dee also have tattoos on their person that have the same function- to use as a disguise shifter, however they do not look the same as Logan’s as they can choose whatever style they want. They ALWAYS glow in the dark if they are not currently disguised.

Why he, Dee and Roman are on Earth:

The first time Roman sees Patton at the club he thinks he's adorable. Humans are oddly shaped.... They don't have the extra arms they do and their legs are shaped strangely and missing a joint, but what he's notice is that humans come in so many shapes! Patton for example.... He's very round and that's absolutely adorable! Buuuuutt he's also so good at dancing, it doesn't matter what sing it is he just let's go and feels it and that's so attractive! Roman often sings specifically so he'll dance and he hears him shouting things like "Oh I love this song!" Before just having fun. When he got so excited he started singing right along with Roman the alien gasped, hearing his harmony fit perfectly with his own. Roman was quick to drag him on stage to sing with him and Roman's heart just melted because this is the one!! No one had ever matched his song before so perfectly!!

They kissed on stage, Roman isn't sure if Patton understands what just happened but he was all about trailing around the small human like a puppy because he was super lovestruck!!!

They know many forms of music and on their world each individual has their own form of musical expression to show their emotions. Logan specializes in 80s type synth and tecnho.

Roman can vocalize in many forms of music but generally sticks to soft lovesongs and pop songs because they are closest to how he sings in general.

Dee does not sing but he expresses his emotions in the form of rhythm. It's why he's a drummer. If you catch him tapping or thrumming a beat it's because he's happy or a slow best if he's sad or a really quick staccato if he's excited. He's very very physical in that way, if you hug him and you pat his back he knows immediately you must feel as happy as he does.

Logan used to be his professor the previous semester and Virgil was crushing on him but once he was done with that class he was like ok he's not my teacher I can ask him out now! But he does and Logan Doesn't Realize he's asking him out on a date and flat out says he's busy.
