Sanders Found Family Circus by parallelmonsoon for Fangirlwriting
Fandoms: Sanders Sides (Web Series)
28 Dec 2020
Tags
Summary
“Come on, Ro! What could be more trustworthy than a bus full of gross old carnies?”
The neon lights of the truck stop flickered in erratic patterns across the rain slick curves of the bus. It looked like something old and refurbished, with rounded corners that reminded Roman vaguely of a Volkswagen beetle.
Sanders Lost and Found Circus. The font was angular, the letters painted in a repeating pattern of yellow, purple, indigo, blue that shouldn't have worked but somehow did. Below the name emblazoned across both sides the bus had been painted, each scene rendered with such loving care to detail that they were almost surreally true to life.

The End of a Perfect Summer's Day by parallelmonsoon
Fandoms: Sanders Sides (Web Series)
22 Oct 2020

Summary
The rain beats steady against Janus's shoulders. He’s soaked through, shivering so hard his back aches. He isn’t sure how long he’s been walking. Hours, surely, though it feels like days.
Every block looks the same. Ubiquitous city. Cracked sidewalks, pigeon shit, brownstones standing sentry. The streetlights cast a dim, wavering light that seems to pulse.
Janus trudges on and thinks of warmer times.

Summary

Purity is determined to protect Thomas from himself...no matter what it takes

Trotting on Down the Road to Destiny by parallelmonsoon
Fandoms: Sanders Sides (Web Series)
23 Aug 2020
Tags
Summary
Virgil just wanted the saddlebags. They were full to bursting- with coin, with food, and if he were lucky, maybe even with clothing warmer then his threadbare tunic. He never meant to get involved. He never meant to go deep and *remember*. It was so much easier to go gentle and walk as a wolf.
Logan had to admit he was impressed. Not enough to give up the package he carried- too much depended on it. But the elf had managed what few others ever had. He'd taken Logan by surprise and that was worthy of admiration. The road ahead is long and it wouldn't hurt to have a guide-
And Patton? Patton is just happy to have a new pup. And this one- this one is going to survive. Patton will make sure of it.
No matter what.
(In which Virgil is an elf with a wolf's soul, Logan has appointments to keep, and Patton is a cyborg dog built to kill. I don't know either, folks. This is a weird one.)

Summary
Connected to Mind the Gap. Various headcanons for the sides' rooms with an eldritch twist. Let's just say Thomas really shouldn't go exploring inside his own head without a tour guide.

Summary
In the aftermath, Thomas realizes that part of self-care is taking care of the people who care for him the most. It's time he learned to love the sides and give back just a little of what they've given him.

Five Squared Classification AU Notes by parallelmonsoon
Fandoms: Sanders Sides (Web Series)
01 Aug 2020
Tags
Summary
Just some expanded information on this universe. In this classification AU, class is based on a person's primary instinctive drive and stress response, NOT their sexual role. These notes go over how class is assigned, each class's tendencies, and how society handles class.

Summary
Five men. Five different classifications. Virgil is a Little without a Caregiver. Patton is a Caregiver who gives up everything to make others happy. Roman is a Dom who isn't dominant enough. Logan is a rare, proud Neutral who is tired of rejection. And Deceit...well, no one knows what the hell Deceit is.
Five men. One fandom convention. One chance to find each other and maybe, just maybe, find what they've been missing.
Fate will be working overtime this week.

Summary
Roman tells Remus that Deceit called him evil. Truth be told, he wanted to hurt them both...but he never expected *this*
-

Summary
Remus remembers
(Or Deceit really should have thought this through a little better. It turns out removing memories from the embodiment of intrusive thoughts doesn't work too well.)

Virgil gives Patton a Father's Day Gift in the form of a pun.
Janus suffers and remembers

Summary
Thomas has visited all of the other sides' rooms by now. All except Janus'. And if Janus won't show him, he'll sneak a peek himself.
That was a mistake.
(Or Thomas falls inside himself and needs a little help getting out.)

Summary
They face off under the blasted red sky. Thomas stands behind Deceit. Patton's sickly-pale throat bulges. He spits his venom (words, just words, and there's nothing more dangerous) and Deceit does the hardest thing he's ever had to do.
He steps aside.

Summary
The sides aren't human. But Virgil? Virgil even less so.
(In which Virgil turns into a cat when pushed and it's anything but cute and cuddly)
-
Tags
Summary
Fate is never guaranteed and every prophecy has its riddle. It's Virgil's job to put the puzzle pieces together and bring soulmates together. He's very, very good at it. One of the best. It brings him some comfort, knowing he's helping other people find what he lost.
His next case, though? It's shaping up to be one hell of a challenge.
(AKA. Exploring the idea of soulmate markings and bonds being less then helpful in locating each other. It turns out fate is a tease.)

Summary
It would be easy to assume that Patton was the oldest. But consider...empathy takes time to develop. So do logic and creativity. Anxiety, though? Anxiety was there from the very first cry
(Just a little sorta-drabble on the idea that Anxiety is actually the oldest side.)

Summary
Virgil is a street dog who knows better then to trust. Roman was born to be a champion. Remus refused to play the game. Logan lived a pampered life and hated every second of it. Deceit suffered.
And Patton? Patton just wants to go home.
A take on The Incredible Journey. Joan runs a transport company that transfers animals to rescues and fosters in other states. This time around he has a full load- until a crash on the highway sees four dogs, a cat, and a crippled rattlesnake lost in the wilderness. Patton is sure that if they just find his person everything will be alright. First, though, they'll need to work together to survive.
This is NOT a Disney flick. There will be some graphic scenes and plenty of drama. This is more based on the original novel and the podcast Film Reroll.
