Meet Sissy
I wrote this so long ago it might not make much sense now, but I have a bunch of drafts I’m probably never going to look at again and it makes me sad no one got to read them. So, here is one.
[After DwIT, before POF]
The light sides were talking with Thomas about yet another issue when a new side showed up.
Everyone was wary but it was Virgil’s expression of absolute terror what made them worry.
“What… What are you doing here?” Anxiety asked, but the new side only let his head fall on the table in the living room and pointed at Thomas.
“Uhh, who is he?” was Thomas’s turn to ask, he looked at Patton after hearing a quiet 'oh no…’ coming from him.
“Ah, I see.” said Logan, and Thomas could only look at all of them, as they refused to say a word. Even Roman was purposely avoiding looking at him, occupying himself by cleaning his sword. It was all silent for a minute until Thomas couldn't take it anymore.
“Deceit!” he yelled.
“Thomas what-!” yelled back Roman but it was too late.
“-m telling you he wasn’t hiding under the bed the last time I- oh, err, this isn’t a surprise I totally expected thi-oh thank fuck there you are!” Deceit seemed to be looking for something as he appeared, he tried to play it off as soon as he realized he was summoned, but it didn’t last him long.
“Language.” said Patton, receiving a deadpan as a response. Thomas coughed slightly to drag the attention back to himself.
“Who is that?” he said as a greeting. But was again, ignored.
“Is there a reason why he is here?” Virgil asked, his tone had an edge of accusation in it.
“’No, please excuse me, I totally brought him here on purpose! I wasn’t looking for him like crazy in the dark mindscape at all!”
“Can we like… not yell?” spoke for the first time, the guy from the living room. Deceit sighed and went to sit next to him. And started murmuring in his ear, the other only looking at the table like it was the most interesting thing on earth.
Patton looked at both with worry, playing with his hands. Thomas was confused, now looking at Logan hoping for answers. The logical side adjusted his tie before speaking.
“Well, Thomas. This is another side of course… He’s-”
“Depression.” said the new guy, suddenly appearing behind Virgil and making him jump in fright. Roman covered his mouth with his hand, trying to hide his laugh, but Thomas heard him muttering “Karma.”. He himself had to swallow a chuckle.
Deceit stood next to Logan, massaging his temples. For the first time they all noticed how tired he looked.
“Are you ok, kiddo?” asked Patton, concern clearly on his face, but Deceit only glared at him, making them all step back, all except Depression.
“So he is my… Depression? But I’m not…” Thomas looked at Deceit, who was pointing at himself, raising an eyebrow. “Oh, right.”
“Come on, Sissy. Let’s go home.” said Deceit to the newcomer, offering one of his hands for him to take. Virgil looked taken aback and startled, as Depression responded, realizing the hand wasn’t meant for him.
“I can’t.” said the guy, everyone took a good look at him, he was very similar to Anxiety, but at the same time, very different. His sweater was a light shade of gray, big and fluffy, and the sleeves covered his hands. It was clearly a bunch of sizes too big because it also covered his thighs only a few centimeters up his knees. His face was covered in dark makeup, but it was all ruined by the black tear lines that crossed his face. His hair was a bedhead mess. Virgil took a step away from him.
Thomas shuddered when the new side looked at him.
“He’s sad.”
Everyone got quiet.
“He’s only growing sadder and sadder, to the point of apathy. I can’t ignore his call anymore.” he said, and Patton glaced worriedly at Thomas, who looked like he was hit by a truck. Deceit pursued his lips, unable to say something against that statement.
“Are you ok, kiddo?” said Patton, softly. Thomas’s eyes slowly filled with tears and he could only look at the floor.
“I’m not… I’m not.”
.
The main idea of this was to portray how the callback/wedding decision affected Thomas. How sad it made him and how, in the long run, putting others first would make him apathetic towards his own needs, since he needs to think about others to be good. And how good he is at hiding how sad this situation makes him (thanks dee). To the point where Deceit can’t hold back Depression anymore, as he would have gained too much power.

My colony likes you~
19 December Virgil's birthday! Happy birthday moonlight!
I'm in this fandom since the end of the summer, but I'm already obsessed with this beautiful characters! Tomas you are such a great man. Even if I can't understand every single word (not my main language) I'm still can understand everything happening.
So I like to create my own AUs, and this is Virgil who live in forest with his spider colony. I was thinking about drawing Patton, but hе either pass out already, or considering to burn Virgil alive. Logan trying to calm Patton, because they need V to guide them through the dungeon

I was a bit stressed yesterday, who knew going over ideas for an "evil Kanan AU" would have such relaxing qualities 😭
Midnight ideas under the cut ~
I feel like it could go both ways, the Empire killing Kanan or converting him - killing certainly saves time, but I feel like at this point there aren't that many Inquisitors left, with Cal hanging around, and there is the connection to his crew - would throw them off focus when they see the man they left for dead - imagine the angst potential
Why Malachor well, everyone was kinda there at one point heh. Plus, I think this could very well end up with Kanan still being blinded- but that's for another day.
Also Ezra doesn't have his scars, he never went after Kanan = the Grand Inquisitor never got the drop on him.
Aight, that's it for my nerd out.
