As the gloves glide slowly over Janus’s skin, every finger and scale revealed, he suddenly feelssomethingagain. He feels seen and seen through and naked, and it is the best and the most frightening experience in a long time.
“See. Much better this way,” Patton says softly, his breath vibrating beneath Janus’s cheek. “Now, you can tell me what’s bothering you.”
The pathological lie is already on the tip of his tongue, ready to deny. But without his gloves Janus can’t spit it out. He just can’t.
And then there’s Patton.
He of all people.
Patton, who is as different from Janus in every way as one can be. Patton, who is loud and honest, and sunny and kind, who makes stupid dad-jokes and likes frogs. Patton, who has not the slightest idea what he is getting himself into when he takes off the yellow gloves. Patton, who is warm and firm and real under his fingertips. More than anything else, he is real. Not a lie.
Janus shakes his head, lips tingling and heart pounding. He is sure that Patton can feel the frantically vibrating heartbeat against his chest. Everything in Janus’s traitorous body yells at him that this moment might be the most important moment in his life. There’s no way to deny it. Not anymore.
⭐what a great day to remember to tag ur sympathetic deceit/deceit ships⭐
But seriously guys, please do make sure that you tag at the very least, “deceit” on the post, as there are people who are triggered by him. A few people I know has come across posts about deceit multiple occasions for that very reason. Especially this week, as from what I’ve heard it is sympathetic deceit week.
Be mindful of your fellow fanders and remember to tag deceit if he’s in the post, especially if it’s a sympathetic deceit post!
Exactly! I would go even further and say that we should tag accordingly:
A deceit friendly/sympathetic post: #sympathetic deceit
A deceit ship: #[name of ship] + #deceit ships
Some people want to see deceit works, but not sympathetic ones, and they need proper tagging to ensure that they don’t get triggered. Tagging is easy and free.
Oo! Yeah, I forgot to mention that
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again:
Please also tag abusive deceit!! I hate getting any content where deceit is abusive or horrible to the other sides across my dash.
A lot of people ARE tagging sympathetic deceit, but next to nobody is tagging abusive deceit and it fucking sucks.
Hi, this is the op (on my other account). This post was made in the midst of “Sympathetic Deceit Week” and I was seeing a lot of untagged Sympathetic Deceit posts. This post is not about tagging abusive Deceit. This post was made for those of us that do not want to see Deceit-positive posts.
I have seen several people adding their opinions on Deceit to this post. It drowns out the original intent, and is a potential trigger to people who are reblogging this that don’t like Deceit.
It’s important to tag abusive deceit, but that is not what this post is about.

please tag abusive deceit too!! abusive deceit makes a lot of people triggered/ uncomfortable and if sympathetic deceit is tagged, then abusive deceit should be too.
Hi! I’m the op. The whole point of this post was so I would stop seeing sympathetic deceit posts and now y'all are putting it in the reblogs. Please stop.
Here’s your casual reminder that tagging Sanders Sides content with the “ss” tag or using that acronym in posts is a… bad idea. If you want to use an abbreaviation instead of the full name #tssor#ssides should be fine :>
I still see people doing that from time to time - mostly, because they don’t know it might be upsetting for other users - so I wanted to make more fans aware.
(I’ll gladly explain why it’s wrong, if someone doesn’t know, but I don’t really want to put that information in the original post so it doesn’t attract people who are into this kind of stuff… I can make it more clear in the notes.)
[I don’t like asking for reblogs, but it’d be nice if more people learnt about it.]
the difference between moceit and ineffable husbands is that aziraphale is a little bit of a bastard whereas patton is,,, almost 0 bastard 100 wholesome. aziraphale is like 20 bastard 80 wholesome. and crowley is a little worse at hiding his dorkiness than janus is, janus is a little better at acting very suave and elegant while still being a huge dork deep down.
however, crowley and janus are both hopelessly in love and huge simps for their respective SO’s in these pairings, and aziraphale and patton are also hopelessly in love and have their respective SO’s wrapped around their little finger in these pairings. thank u for coming to my ted talk.
Just some doodles from Discord. I’ll color them eventually but for now im just trying to work out these designs since I really don’t have a consistent way of drawing the sides
[ID: Eight drawings with screenshots of the corresponding requests above them. They are drawn in the same style with white backgrounds.
The first shows Janus and Patton. Janus is wrapped in a grey and white blanket. He sits on Patton’s lap. Patton rests his chin on Janus’ shoulder. Patton is smiling with his eyes closed, and Janus is smiling and looking at him.
The second shows Patton and Logan. Logan’s hand rests on a book he has closed. Patton’s hand covers Logan’s. They are kissing with their eyes closed.
The third shows Roman and Janus. They are leaning on opposite sides of a table. Janus has one hand by his cheek. In front of them is a large chocolate-vanilla milkshake in a glass. They are both sipping from it with black straws. Their foreheads are close, and they are looking at each other.
The fourth shows Roman and Logan. They stand in front of a stove, where a pot of red jam is steaming. Roman has his hands around Logan’s waist. Logan is holding a spoon and giving Roman a taste of the jam. Logan is looking fondly at Roman.
The fifth shows two chibi drawings of Virgil and Logan, followed by a full-size drawing. In the first two panels, Logan and Virgil sit on the couch. Logan touches Logan’s hand, and Virgil turns bright red. The full drawing shows them sitting together with their hands entangled. They are listening to music with the same pair of earbuds, one in each ear. The string meets between them. Virgil is blushing and looking away, and Logan is smiling,
The sixth shows Remus and Janus. They are dancing. Remus has one leg kicked up next to Janus, and Janus holds Remus’ waist. Remus holds Janus’ arm and the back of his neck. Remus is grinning and Janus is scowling. They are looking into each other’s eyes.
The seventh shows Logan and Remus. Remus sits on Logan’s lap and has one leg over the other. His arms are wrapped around Logan’s shoulders. Logan is holding Remus’ back. Remus is smiling at him. Logan is looking at him.
The eighth shows Virgil and Patton. They are facing each other and drawn in profile. Virgil has a hand on Patton’s glasses, pushing them up onto his head. Their faces are close together. They are blushing. Patton is looking into Virgil’s eyes, and Virgil is looking at Patton’s lips. /End ID]
