[made A Thing]

Hi, I’m obsessed with this series it’s an actual problem XD

Hmu if you wanna talk about it! Because I barely have anyone to talk about it with myself 😅😭

React if you’re a sanders sides fan! I wanna follow more fanders

Korina: *talking about The Doodler*

Sophie: What did he do, draw on his victims or something?

Korina: Yeah, he drew his victims.

Big Ryan and Shane energy.

I don’t mind either way, whatever is easier for you to do :)

I am currently debating whether I should post the entirety of the Dukeceit essay and cut off the post after the title or introductory paragraph, so as to prevent the post from being an annoyance to those who do not wish to read it, or post a link to the document that the essay is going to be written on. If I choose the second option, I will paste the introductory paragraph or thesis statement with the post too, so everyone who sees the post could get a sense of what the paper would entail if they were to read it.

Seeing as I have acquired an audience interested in this essay, I find that it would be sensible to ask said audience for their opinions on this. It is also useful to test out the taglist that I have accumulated already, so as to check if I have adequate knowledge on the process of tagging multiple people.

Taglist: @11-fire-slang-words @bumb1e-vee @d0tping @lickoutyourbrains @liemonyellow @richient

If you were not included in the taglist and you would like to be, communicate this to me via ask, comment, or reblog. I would appreciate anybody who does so stating their desire to be tagged in clear terms, because I will not be tagging anyone who I am not certain wants to be tagged for this essay and things related to it. Anyone who does so will be added to the list of people invested enough in the relationship between two characters from a web series to actively want to read a pseudo-academic paper on it. I say this without casting judgement; I, too, am the type of person to do so.

I did it?....I guess? XD

Multishippers come get y’all juice!

Here’s the none-edited version because....why not 🤷‍♀️

(Also the analogical tag don’t work apparently, don’t know what’s up with that but-)

Y'ALL, Y'ALL Y'ALL-

*sigh*

Can one of you draw Virgil in this? You don't have to, I just lack motivation rn.

Oooo interesting!

Oml I need Dark holding a cane, bonus points if it’s the same cane he had as Damien.

Hey, so, I have a silly lil question-

Which Darkiplier version are you thinking of when you talk about him, read/write about him in fanfics or in general, when you just see his name, etc??

Do you imagine early days Dark? Date!Dark? Heist!Dark? That version of Dark where he just has his top button undone and no tie?? Do you think of your own design (if you have one)? Or do you think of someone else’s design? Or do you imagine him at all?

Idk I’m just incredibly curious, I never really thought too much about it until literally right now, and I’m just wondering if anyone else is the same LMFAO

Like, me personally, I tend to think of Heist!Dark a lot whenever I think about him or read him in fics or talk about him etc.

Wait you’re so right!

I’ve honestly never really thought of it like that before, but it makes complete sense!

I agree though, it mainly depends on the context and if anything is explicitly stated in fics etc, if nothing is specifically described I’ll mainly imagine Heist as my “default.”

But this is such an interesting take and it makes a lot of sense ^^

That's facts 🙏💅

i wanna adress something in the heartstopper fandom not enough people are talking about.

heartstopper is becoming a real life tv show which also includes real actors. but i think we should all remember that these actors are real people.

we have all seen pictures of the cast including pictures of Joe Locke and Sebastian Croft and somehow lots of people seem to see this as an excuse to openly ship them. random people message bigger accounts of the fandom and spam them about how much they love certain ships between real actors.

this is inappropriate and harmful! every single person in the heartstopper cast is a human being with a personality, feelings and a private life. we have never talked to these people in our live and shouldn’t expect anything from them! lots of them are also minors / teenagers which makes shipping them even more harmful, especially if you are an adult!

i know y’all are really excited for this show and so am i! i am spamming my instagram story about this every single day because i’m just so happy that this story is coming on the screen. heartstopper is a very important story to many people and i don’t want anyone to be less excited about it!

but i think we should all acknowledge the difference between thinking stuff like ‚aw they’d be adorable together‘ and venting about how hot/cute/anything these actors are to accounts you don’t know or even the actors themselves!

when netflix will stream heartstopper a lot of new people will come into this fandom and enjoy this story but of course there will also be lots of shitbags will come and do harmful things like f.e. drawing sexualized fan art or write weird fanfiction. this is all happening already but it will become a lot more common when the show will be internationally available.

until this point and we should make the cast have a wonderful time with us fans and we should keep trying after that!

long story short: don’t ship or sexualize irl actors and people!!! we all make mistakes but we should acknowledge them and stop our certain harmful behaviour!!! please reblog!!!!

Hey guys, so I know I already don’t post a ton on here, let alone about Sanders Sides, but I know some of you have followed me because of my Sanders Sides related posts.

So this post is mainly for those people who follow me, or any other sanders sides fan who comes across this post who’s just browsing the tags.

I’ve come to the decision that after the season 2 finale, whenever that will come out, I will no longer be watching Sanders Sides as a regular fan.

I know a lot of people in the fandom are pretty bored of the lack of content or are just tired of waiting, or is upset with how the series is being handled/treated at the moment, or have just fallen out of love for the series, and I completely understand every single one of you who are feeling like that.

Personally, I am pretty tired of the current treatment of the series, I am incredibly tired of the lack of communication we get, I’m tired of being strung along with little comments to make us stay, I’m just tired.

Now, this is not to say that I am against Thomas in any way shape or form, no absolutely not. I want to make that incredibly clear! I do not hate Thomas Sanders! I am not against him! I understand this year has been awful for him both mentally and physically, and I am so proud and happy that he’s been doing better recently. And I wish nothing but the absolute best for him!

But there’s only so much I can defend. And lack of professionalism, communication and organisation is, unfortunately, not something I can defend.

There has been so many times where Thomas’ could’ve told us something, updated us on the writing, the production process, filming, etc etc, and it has just been radio silence, other than a few tweets here and there that still imply he’s in the writing process.

I’m at a point where I am even scared that the finale is just not going to be worth the wait we’ve had to sit through.

Let’s face it, the fandom is dead, the series is in purgatory - practically on the brink of death - we get no updates, no episodes, and the only sanders sides content we get is either ads or a little something for us to talk about for about a week, maybe 2 if we really milk it out.

But other than that, Sanders Sides has become a cash grab and filler content. Just let that sink in for a moment…

Yeah, I don’t know about you, but if this is what it’s like now, who knows what it’s going to be like for season 3. Yikes.

And personally, I don’t want to be around to watch that. I’m already having to watch a series I love and care about deeply slowly die in real time, I really don’t want to stay to see how far it will fall.

Now this is not to say that I am going to stop watching Sanders Sides, no I will still watch it, I will still watch season 3, but I will just not be considered a “regular fan,” more so just a casual viewer.

Once something dies down for me, I more or less just stop caring for it, this is pretty common for me and it’s pretty unfortunate to be honest, I’ve been like this with many other of my past special interests/hyperfixations, but for me if there is nothing to keep me hyperfixated on something….then what’s the point? For example: a few years back I was incredibly fixated on Teen Wolf, I watched the entire series on Netflix and I was completely and utterly obsessed. It was a main hyperfixation of mine for a long time, and then I finished the show. And whilst I still enjoyed it, I still liked it, it slowly faded into the background for me overtime. I may not be completely and utterly obsessed with it anymore now, but I still like it and I look back on it very fondly.

This has been the same for Sanders Sides, and it has been like that for a while now for me.

I still love it, I’d still like to see the end of it, but it’s just….not a huge thing for me anymore.

So yeah, after season 2 I am done with Sanders Sides, at least on a regular fan level.

Thank you so much for liking my Sanders Sides posts, despite how few there are compared to other sanders sides blogs on here, but I appreciate you stopping by and checking out my art and my theories/ideas.

I believe I still have a few sanders sides drafts on here that I never posted, so if you’d like to see them then I am more than happy to post them!

I’m not leaving the fandom forever, I’m more so just giving my time and energy to other things, and that’s okay. Sanders Sides will always be there, no matter how long it takes /lh.

So whilst this is not a goodbye, it’s more of a “see you around” I suppose, so I’ll see you guys around! Again thank you so much for checking out my lil sanders sides corner of the internet, and I hope you all carry on creating your amazing art, writing, edits, cosplays, headcanons, ideas and theories for this truly amazing series. And of course, I hope you enjoy watching Sanders Sides!

Bye guys! Much love and take care 💛🫶

I honestly don’t know why I like them so much XD

I think because of how little we’ve seen them together (for now anyways, that’ll probably change as the series goes on) it leaves you a bit of creative freedom to come up with something for them, like how they grew up together, how they used to be, what they’ve been through together etc etc.

I think also just seeing what other fanders have made for headcanons and things, I remember seeing a post a little while ago saying how Janus and Remus are basically Morticia and Gomez and I’ve been obsessed with the idea since XD

Also the idea of them just being chaotic together, whether as friends or otherwise, is just so neat to me. Like they’ve just got no fucks left to give so they do what they want and they don’t care.

They’re the type of pairing that can be anything and everything, they’re best friends, they’re lovers, they’re soulmates, they’re married, they’re roommates and whatever else, and it would always stay consistent. They’re still chaotic and they care about each other, in whatever way you want to interpret the ship as, and I think that’s special in of itself.

I just think they’re neat and I want to see them interact more, I know the romantic ships will never be canon and I don’t expect them to be, but Janus and Remus being chaotic best buds would be pretty cool to see on screen 😂😌

So yeah, there you go >w<

(Also the fact that they have SO. MANY. Ship names still amuses me XD)

HELLO

All fellow dukeceit enjoyers

please

rb this and sound off with why you love this ship.

feel free to be as detailed and poetic as you like or just scream at me.
