You Know, If WTIT Hadn't Pretty Much All But Confirmed Orange Having Something To Do With Anger, I Found

Sanders Sides fans:

I haven't seen anyone talking about this, but I think that the orange side watching the others in the calendar is a neat little thing.

OOF I was rewarching some sander sides videos and just realized how suspicious Patton looked when Thomas mentioned making a decision with a blind fold on, and it's just failing my theory about the orange side being wrath/impulsivity

Scrolling through the sanders sides tag after the asides drop like

well shit

My theory is that the Orange side is only talking through Logan because he can't appear as long as Thomas has not acknowledged his existence and the contradiction he create with Logan: Janus first impersonated Patton, taking his form, voice and place in the room... and only appeared as himself after Logan asked Thomas if he wanted to learn something new about himself and spoke Janus' name. To appear Remus had to literally knock Roman unconscious and stand at his place in the room... and he started appearing after Logan tried to start a discussion about Thomas' intrusive thoughts and was repeatedly shushed by Patton Virgil and Thomas. I think they can't appear together at first because the oposite sides create a paradox in Thomas' personality which at first is hard to accept. He can be both a good, moral person (Patton) and also lie and be selfish sometime (Janus). He has a wonderful imagination (Roman) that also let him to imagine the worst possible situation (Remus). Logan represents order, logic, being calm and thinking before acting. The fact that we got a glimpse of the Orange side when Logan (and Thomas on his phone) lost his cool means to me that the Orange side is Thomas anger but also the impulsive actions he might do when he is angry. So in my opinion Logan's eyes glowing orange means that the Orange side represents anger and impulsiveness, that he is trying to come through but that he can't because Thomas has not yet accepted this part of himself and has a hard time balancing the idea that he can be logical and collected but also angry and short tempered sometimes.

Oh my gosh, you're completely right that both Janus and Remus have completed replaced other sides in the conversation before, most likely because they contradicted each other in Thomas' head. It would be reasonable to conclude one cannot act rationally and with anger at the same time. That's so cool.

Okay but Logan having met the orange side before, and just not knowing it because he wasn't wearing his glasses at the time. So he just thought that Virgil was being a little extra spicy that day, and sat with him in the kitchen making him coffee while just talking about random stuff he was researching.

So when the orange side does his big reveal, and says:

"Logic, we meet again~"

Logan has no idea what he's talking about.

Okay but the orange side being the one to pull Logan away from the others, and actively comfort him since he's feeling sad at being overlooked and forgotten by everyone.

Him just stepping up in Logan's place, and up to the plate give his swing a go.

Dry your tears and Get Angry

A theory on the season finale of Sanders Sides

(brought to you by the 5th anniversary special)

it’s pretty common knowledge that flames and fire commonly represent anger. In the most recent Sanders Asides, Working Through Intrusive Thoughts, we get a glimpse of Logan’s eyes turning orange as he is consumed by anger. After the episode was posted, Thomas posted this on Twitter:

In the background of the 5th anniversary special, a certain parallel to this moment can be seen in the background.

A Patton figure with flames on top of it

We all know that Thomas and the team pay very close attention to details, even those in a unfocused background, and so a Patton figurine with flames on top of it with C!thomas being the only other figurine around it has to mean something

Might Patton be the next side to lose his cool?
