#sanders sides roman
Patton:Hey, Virge, wanna third wheel on my date with Logan?
Virgil:…I guess.
Patton:Ro! Wanna third wheel on my date with Logan?
Roman:Of course!
Patton: Great! I’ve always wanted to double date!
Roman:Wait…
Virgil: I can’t breathe.
Logan: Okay, let’s stop using the term “Butthurt.” We’re not twelve anymore.
Roman: You sound fannytroubled.
Patton:A little bootybothered if you ask me.
Virgil:Someone’s having a tushytantrum.
Deceit, with his hand in the opening of a vending machine: I am the smartest, most civilised side here.
Roman:…are you stuck in that candy machine?
Deceit:I paid for my Rolos. I’m getting my Rolos.
Roman: Why are you like this?
Virgil: I used too much No More Tears Shampoo when I was a kid and I haven’t felt a single emotion since.
Roman: Bitch.
Virgil: Blocked.
Roman: Wait, no, unblock me - I have something important to tell you.
Virgil: Unblocked.
Roman: Bitch.
Thomas: If you took a shot every time you made a bad decision, how drunk would you be?
Logan: Maybe a bit tipsy?
Patton: Drunk.
Virgil: Wasted.
Roman: Dead.
Roman: Alright, so you and I are married.
Virgil: I don’t want to be married.
Roman: Relax, it’s just pretend.
Virgil: I don’t wanna pretend.
Roman: Scared you’ll like it?
Virgil: Alright, if we’re married, I want a divorce.
Thomas: Are you two always like this?
Logan: Yes, they are.
Logan: Studies show that keeping a ladder inside a house is more dangerous than a loaded gun.
Virgil: That’s why I own ten guns.
Virgil: In case some maniac tries to sneak in a ladder.
Thomas: The fact that I’m a legal adult is hysterical.
Patton: *Sighs*
Virgil: Patton, are you Okay?
Virgil: You just walked past a cat without petting it.
Roman: I like your pants.
Logan: Thanks. They were 50% off.
Roman: I’d like them 100% off.
Logan: The store can’t just sell free stuff.
Roman: That’s not really what I-
Logan: That’s a terrible way to run a business, Roman.
Remus: I can’t believe you and Virgil broke the bed! Must have been a crazy night!
Roman: Haha, yeah…
*last night*
Roman: Bet you can’t jump high enough to touch the ceiling.
Virgil: Try me.
Patton: Just be yourself!
Roman: Be myself? Patton, I have one day to win them over. How long did it take for you guys to like me?
Logan: A couple of weeks.
Virgil: Six months.
Janus: Jury’s still out.
Roman: See? “Be yourself.” What kind of garbage advice is that?
Logan: Your existence is confusing.
Roman: How so?
Logan: Your presence is annoying but thethought of anything bad happening to you upsets me.
Roman: Hey, Lo. Did you know that thot means ‘thoughtful person’?
Logan: I have never heard of that specific slang, no.
*later*
Logan: Thanks for keeping me company, Virgil. You’re such a thot.
Virgil, wheezing: I’m a WHAT?
Roman: what angsty part of Thomas did you crawl out of
Virgil: The angstiest you Disney prince ripoff
I love the moment in DwIT when Thomas is trying to explain himself and the following exchange happens;
Thomas: “Virgil, I don’t want to do what he says!”
Virgil: “You mean you don’t want to act on what you think!”
Logan: “Virgil, enough.”
Remus: “Ugh, here we go, Virgil. Looks like Logan has reached his ‘listening to others’ limit for the day!”
I love this so much because it’s obvious that Remus is trying to separate Virgil from the others by playing to their weaknesses. Logan often doesn’t listen to the others, and even though in this situation he’s right, Virgil is still frustrated by him. He plays to Virgils weaknesses often. Like, when Logan reveals that Virgil is partially at fault for Thomas being so distraught and getting no sleep, Remus says, “Despite his best efforts, Virgil could never stop being the bad guy!” Which effectively makes Virgil feel at fault.
Did you notice how quiet and reserved Virgil is that whole video? How defensive he becomes at times? How many times you see a shot of him, standing silently and scowling at Remus?
(This is such an old draft I wrote but I never post on this blog and I feel like this can’t stay in the drafts. Clearly I was going feral over this for some reason.)
