Logan’s Spotify playlist doesn’t get real or emotional until the second half or so because Logan doesn’t expect you to listen that long. The description literally says “Listen, or don’t.”

He hides it under the first half of the playlist which consists of the content you’d expect from him. The first songs represent the mask he wears to conceal what’s underneath: the second half of the playlist where he opens up about his frustrations, anger, grief, sadness, and growth.

he’s Remus & he will not adhere to a schedule because he’s unexpected like that

"It's really difficult for a person to create their own life and their own freedom. It's going to become more and more difficult, and it's going to create more and more disillusioned people who become dishonest and angry and are willing to fuck the next guy to get what they want. There's so much stepping on the backs of other people in our profession. We've been so lucky that we've never had to do that. Part of it was because of our own tenacity, and part of it was because we were lucky."

Now let's talk about why this is interesting. Janus is referred to by Patton as "an inner coach that acts with the the one intention of self-preservation" (he also says this is the "simply put" version of who Janus is, just throwing that out there.)

Later Janus himself suggests "compiling a list of people we need to nudge...down a flight of stairs till they hold another round of call backs", and on two separate occasions tried to get Thomas to turn his back to some degree on his friends for his own benefit, I'd even be willing to argue that it might have been Janus encouraging Roman to get Thomas to stay hanging out with the "charming fellow" rather than going to Joan's reading.

In case you guys need the list of songs of each one. i’ll edit this post and add the new ones when they come out.

Roman

Bear witness to the chosen one(s)-- a few favorite songs of mine! Fair warning: these tunes carry highly infectious cases of giggles, the wriggles, and the sniffles. So take care when listening... lest you get lost to the music! -Roman ❤

Patton

These are a few of the songs I used to listen to when I was your age... and my age now!! Now, I'd keep Alka-Seltzer on hand, cause I've been told this playlist is a little heartwarming. Lemme know how you Like it, cause I cant find the Like button anywhere! -Patton 💙

Logan

I was impelled to compile this selection of songs. I dont entirely understand some of the lyrics, but I still found them compelling. Listen, or dont. -Logan

Virgil

I dont usually do this... but here's my music... dont make fun of it. These are just some songs I listen to when I need to tune everything out, I dont know. -Virgil 💜

Janus

I loathe music, and if you listen to this playlist, you'll understand why. These songs are overly cheerful, frivolous, and frankly, they make me sick. But... if you want to take a listen, be my guest. -Janus 💛
