Markiplier - Blog Posts
How do you think Markiplier's egos and Sanders Sides would interact with one another?
I am so glad you asked! (This is gonna be long)
For context, I imagine the reason they all met was some time-warp space fuckery, and right now the sides only chance at survival is kinda hanging out with the egos until something can get sorted.
As a whole, everything is relatively peaceful. Is there Drama? Of course. But nothing too terrible. Maybe a physical altercation on a bad day, but nothing that would get the sides thrown out.
Let's get the obvious out of the way: Remus and Wilford would hang out. Remus would be fascinated by how off the walls Wilford could get and Wilford wouldn’t think twice about Remus’s insane sentinces. He’s like that Marge meme of ‘I just think he’s neat!’ Remus doesn’t really care about the others, but he loves asking Google fucked-up questions because he’ll just answer. No hesitation. And Remus thinks that's hilarious. Also him and Heehoo have to be kept in separate rooms after the incident.
Patton and Stan would be IMMEDIATE FRIENDS. I’m talking first day of knowing each other, Patton has already made friendship bracelets, Stan makes sure Patton is taking care of himself, and they have a ‘dad club’ that consists of only them two. And they match! They have basically adopted the others as their own, even Patton sometimes able to help Dark. The only person he hasn’t ‘officially’ adopted is Yancy. Patton found out Yancy was a self-made orphan and decided ‘he’s just, like, a friend’ because Patton values his life. (But if we're getting into uncanon egos, Patton basically adopted Erek Derekson and Hates Derek Derekson. Like I fully believe if you put this two face-to-face, they would fight. Patton deserves to go ape-shit as a treat :) )
Logan doesn’t necessarily like Google, but out of all the others, he tolerates Google the most. They pretty much work together to try and get things figured out for everyone, and their relationship is strictly work colleagues. Until Logan found out Google also really likes space. Now he’s intrigued. Another ego that intrigues him are The Jims. Its because he’s heard of a side splitting, but not infinitely splitting. Now he’s begun keeping a tiny notebook on everything he’s learned about the others.
Roman is the most active when it comes to hanging out with the other egos. Him and Yancy definitely bond over their love of musicals and their (chosen) family. For Illinois, however, I feel like they’re either partners or rivals, no in-between. If they’re partners, total bond over their love of adventure and constant compliments. If rivals, very catty behavior from both of them about how self-absorbed the other is. Roman and Dark have a mutual hatred for each other. Roman thinks Dark is the Villain while Dark hates any idea of a hero after Actor. Also Roman found out Dark was twins that re-merged and gained a new fear. And finally, Actor manipulates the shit out of Roman, constantly planting ideas of how similar they are and talking about how everyone else abandoned them so he should stay vigilant.
Janus probably talks to the others the least, keeping his distance and watching from afar. However, he does enjoy learning about the others through the sides that talk to him. Whether it's frustrations or compliments, he takes a mental note of it all. The only person he doesn’t know about at all is Actor, and Roman would love to keep it that way. Janus also loves knocking the more egotistical egos down a peg with off-handed comments. Luckily, that hasn't wound up in anything bad. And while he does do this, he would protect them if it came down to it. While he doesn’t like them, others do. And they all have a use.
Virgil, surprisingly enough, found his way near Dark. I think Dark realizes Virgil’s ‘potential’ and keeps him nearby because if anyone were to stop Virgil, it would be Dark. And if anyone were to help Dark, it would be Virgil. (You know Virgil’s voice thing when he gets anxious? Yeah, I’m gonna be the first to assume it doesn’t stop there.) Virgil over time realizes Dark is a lot like Logan and Janus, meaning he's keeps to himself a lot and attempts to hide his emotions a lot. But because Virgil is near Dark, he’s gotten to know all the others (as well as Dark) very well. Virgil nearly sprinted towards Logan once he found out Heehoo had a scientific name. Also Virgil was the first Side to find out about Dark and Wilford’s Past, which was shocking for him because some of the other egos don’t know his past.
So that's my head canons, feel free to tell me your own, and I hope you have a good day!
Things that mean different things in my different fandoms:
Puppets:
For Thomas it's a happy learning moment
For Mark it's angst time with a possibility of death
For Jack it's just a scary, scary death
2.Dark sides:
For Thomas, it's Virgil, Remus, and Janus
For Mark, it's Dark (The original dark side)
For Jack, it's Anti (The original glitch bitch)
3.Actors/Acting
For Thomas, it's Roman and an opportunity
For Mark, it's ‘Actor Mark’ and Manipulation
For Jack, it's what he has to do to fake cry during his projects, have you seen that?! I was stunned! Speechless!
4.Loops
Thomas’s most severe problem with loops is fruit
Mark is trapped in literal time loops and space tears in the fabric of the universe
Jack is stuck in ‘Fucking circles’ doing things ‘over and over’
5.Choices
Thomas, very calmly, goes through his choices in every episode with each of his sides
Mark doesn’t really get a choice, but you do! You get many choices
Jack really has no choice and is stuck in the middle of whatever the fuck Anti and IRIS are doing
6.Interview
Thomas’s 5 year anniversary babey!
Mark’s universe just has Wilford asking some questions
Jack, please, give Chase a break! He’s just a boy!
I’m writing Roman (Sander Sides) and The Actor (Who killed Markiplier) meeting and holy shit, the manipulation go crazy.
Lowkey wanna post it, not sure though.
OH MY GOD!
Me, after watching like 90 out of 100-something iswm parts: Celci F. Kelvina like Celsius Fahrenheit Kelvin
It's always “If they were in the same universe, Wilford and Remus would be friends/dating/enemies” and never “If they were in the same universe, Roman would have a field day or mental breakdown learning everybody's names”
Reminder: Roman thought the names Janus and Virgil we're embarrassing. There are canon characters named “Captain Magnum,” “Heehoo,” and “HeapAss.” (Yes, HeapAss is canon, he’s one of Yancy’s friends. Also yancy is a good example for this.)
Roman would have a mental breakdown as the names get more and more ridiculous and Virgil would just hover around him until finally he gets really close and goes “And you thought my name was bad.”
If you are ever confused about the Markiplier lore, don’t worry ❤️ Logan Sanders would be too
Fun Facts:
Anti’s first canon appearance was October 10, 2016
The first episode of SanderSides came out October 19, 2016
And A date with Markiplier came out Febuary 14, 2017 (Valentine's day)
Meaning all of these great series came out days (or months) apart from each other! Isn’t that cool?!
I’m not wrong. Are you gonna look at this and tell me that I’m wrong? You can’t, because I’m not. If you did, that would be lying.
I just wanna draw my community blorbos as the autism creatures
And if they don’t, that's also okay! I’m sure whatever Mark makes will be great!
Markiplier making a movie gives me joy
B/c last year after space when he said "I'll probably not make something to this scale again" (paraphrase) ngl worried me b/c for some reason I thought he wouldn't make something so beautiful like In Space again
But he's making a movie and we can all rejoice!
Let's hope the egos show up in said movie hehe!!
So fucking based
(also just found out they had a ship name, that's amazing)
I'm back on my Remus Sanders and Wilford Warfstache should could and are best friends obsession again
The world is not ready for my blog
Markiplier egos: The Canon and Uncanon
I have come to a horrible realization that you can tell which Sides/Egos are canon for the other series I like, but not for this one! So, of course, I’m gonna fix this. (Also I’m doing this based of characters that do and don’t appear in the ‘with Markiplier’ series canon)
(For the mark section, C - Canon, N - Not Canon, P - Possibly Canon)
The obviously canon
Darkiplier (Also Damien)
Wilford (Also William b. Barnum)
Mark (The actor)
The Jims (all of them, but I’m going to count the four iterations of Jim we see for simplicity's sake)
Yancy
Captain Magnum
Illinois
Stan Wheeler
Heehoo
Murdock (I considered putting him in the “that's just mark” category)
The door monster
Canon?
Bingiplier (plus mini bing)
Googleplier (all four iterations)
Bim Trimmer
King of the squirrels
Dr. Iplier
Ed Edgar
Septiplier (I know)

If we add up all of these egos, we get 46 egos in canon, 72 egos in total... Tell me if I missed any (or if there are some that shouldn’t be counted) and I’ll add them to (or remove them from) the list!
I feel like if one of Thomas’s dark sides said the phrase “did you miss me?” all of the Jacksepticeye and Markiplier girlies would loose their shit
Interesting take, but hear me out:
Wilford would say the most fucked up shit in he most casual way, which others would be disturbed by. Also he would constantly be twisting peoples words (unintentionally) to say kinda messed up shit. This gives Remus two choices.
1. He is my rival
2. He is my new partner in crime
Take this as you will
people always say wilford and remus would be buddies but i personally think remus would despise wilford bc he thrives on reactions to his intrusive nonsense and wilford isn't phased by anything
MY NERDY YOUTUBE BLOG
Hey, hi, hello! My name is Devon, I go by He/Him pronouns and I like Youtubers! (All YouTubers. All of them.)
This blog is mostly for a very specific group of people that my brain has hyper-fixated on for a very specific reason. That being:
MARKIPLIER
JACKSEPTICEYE
THOMAS SANDERS
(Possible) Temporary Obsessions
RanbooLive
Escape the Night (Mostly Matpat and Rose’s character ❤️)
Dad Feels
And that reason is:
EGOS/SIDES!
Patton, Chase, Wiford, Remy, Robbie, Eric, I love em all! Right now I just post ideas and silly concepts, but I may also show art and stories and that kind of stuff. (I don’t think my art is that good, but who knows! Someone might like it)
MY DOS AND DON’TS
DO
Ask me about literally anything fandom-wise! It can be about just one of them, it can be about the collective, it can be about how I think they’d interact, it can be anything!
Ask me (pretty much) anything personally! I’d rather no nsfw comments, but besides that ask away!
Tell me about headcanons or story ideas! I love these characters and (almost) any interpretation is a good one!
Request something for me to write/draw! I can’t promise I’ll do it or that it will come out the way you want, but I might! (If I don’t, I’ll probably tell you and give you a reason why)
DON’T
DNI if you are: A racist, a homophobe, a Nazi, a TERF, a sexist, or an anti to the following people above. The last one I’m a bit leaniant on, but all the ones before that DO NOT.
I allow constructive criticism, but not all criticism. Don’t have anything nice to say? Don’t say it!
I hate that I have to say this knowing some weirdos out there, but please... No romantic or sexual RemRom... Just no.
And that's all! I hope you enjoy my blog and have a great day!
I feel like if one of Thomas’s dark sides said the phrase “did you miss me?” all of the Jacksepticeye and Markiplier girlies would loose their shit
This is so valid
Random out of the blue headcanon that Captain Magnum is afraid of heights. I don’t know why, it’s just a gut feeling :/c
Dad crew
I love them so much ❤️❤️❤️
This is perfectly okay if you don’t want to do this, but can I have a dad crew?
Stan Waterman, Chase Brody, and Patton Sanders
Thanks for reading ❤️
You got it! 💕
If this helps anyone, here's the way I think of it:
It goes who killed Markiplier, wilford motherlovin warfstache, Damien, Markiplier tv, a heist with Markiplier, a date with Markiplier
Because iswm constantly hops between different times, it has existed at all of these moments in history at once. That's why D!Mark asks us on a second date, that's why we visit Yancy in prison and find out he tried out for parole, and that's why we seemingly hop from place to place even before we get to any of those points. All because of the warp crystal.
It's also why Dark talks to us in ahwm, because he can now teleport to wherever he wants at any time he wants. Sorry if this was long but I hope it helped <3
I guess what i find so frustrating is that the markiplier cinematic universe feels like the fnaf lore and it could be easily explained that the reason that it doesn’t matter where ahwm,adwm, and iswm is because none of this is real because the house is putting you into this purgatory of stories to leave you to rot into eternity but thats not canon just some shit i made up
Like none of this makes sense and thats the point of it from a STORY point but from a storyline perspective its confusing as hell
Only difference is that fnaf is supported to be in chronological order and the Mcu is supposed to not have a timeline
You see my dilemma
Cursed thought: The “I got the titties, she got the ass” trend on tiktok but it's Wilford and Remus
WHO KEEPS MAKING THESE ARTICLES?!?!?!
The similarities that I find between Thomas’s story and Mark’s story scare me.
Yes, as well as others! I may make a post about it soon

Spreading this!! Please reblog and share!! Mark is one hell of a creator and human being, go watch The Edge of Sleep and best of luck to him!!
Hi all, I have something important. Whether you're in the Markiplier fandom or not, or if you even watch Markiplier at all, if you like internet creators, and seeing independent artists making what they want to make... I urge you to read. This is happening right now!
In 2019, Markiplier was in a narrative horror podcast called The Edge of Sleep. It's an AWESOME show, if you're into psychological horror, apocalypse stories, or just audio dramas with great acting and amazing sound direction I highly recommend it. People LOVE this series, me included. And after it's success, they revealed a TV adaptation was in the works in 2021.
For a LONG time, multiple years, we have heard nothing about The Edge of Sleep. The show went dark and has been presumably stuck in development hell ever since it was announced. None of the cast have been legally allowed to talk about what's going on with it, how far along it is, or even when it's slotted to come out. Fans were originally very excited about the show, but many of us had all but given up hope of it coming out at all.
And now... It's here. But in a different way than we expected.
About a week ago, Mark released an update vlog where he explained that The Edge Of Sleep was coming out on October 18th. No warning, not a single trailer or promotion, or any sign that it was even releasing besides Mark's video. He explained that in order to "open doors" for his own theatrical release, Iron Lung, the studio has given him and his community the task of getting The Edge Of Sleep to the top 10 on it's streaming service. What streaming service?
...We don't know. Mark explains he isn't legally allowed to tell us. He's only allowed to say that it's coming out on the 18th, and it needs to be in the #10 spot or higher in order for him to do anything that he wants with his own movie.
Then, for even more chaos to be added into the mix, The Edge of Sleep ACTUALLY went up on Amazon Prime Video on October 15th, three entire DAYS before the date that Mark was given. He explains in a NEW update vlog, that this was not malicious, and the studio just did not at all expect people to find the show before it's intended opening day... For some reason.
I hope I don't need to say how insanely weird this all is, and a complete MESS from a studio perspective. Mark has little to no power over what happens with The Edge of Sleep. He was the executive producer and acted in it, but that's it. He isn't an advertising company, or in control of any of the streaming details for this show. When it airs, where, how, etc. Qcode, the studio producing The Edge of Sleep, has done almost nothing to even make people aware of it's existence, now days after it's gone live. They are putting a lot of heavy lifting onto Mark and his fanbase to get this show seen, a fanbase he now is forced to ask for help from for his own professional relationship's sake.
There's not a lot of information about what exactly is going on, and Mark has worded everything very gently. He assures that this change up is not malicious, but many of us are skeptical about the studios intentions in all this, and whether or not they actually want The Edge of Sleep to succeed. I have my own suspicions that Mark would be speaking out about this further (as he is known for doing to youtube), if he wasn't 1. Legally bound, and 2. DEPENDENT on his relationship with this studio and Amazon to be able to pursue his future creative aspirations in any way.
This is where you come in, reader! Because we can help!
The Edge of Sleep is an awesome show, I watched it myself yesterday and I have no doubt anyone who tries it out will love it. The cinematography in particular is absolutely stellar. It is streaming now on Prime Video, and is also going to to release on plex.tv (which is free) on October 18th. It's already gotten high in the US charts, but now the important part is keeping it there, showing longevity and viewer interest to Amazon and the studios. If you have Prime Video, or if anyone you know does, WATCH THE EDGE OF SLEEP! Get a 30 day free trial for it! Listen to it in the background after your done! Show it to your friends, family! Get everyone you know in on it.
Not only that, but showing genuine engagement and interest for the show online is very important for it's success as well. Shout it out across your profiles, especially Twitter! Make memes about it, fanart! Rate and like it on IMDB, as well as Prime Video itself. Leave reviews for it! Even if you don't watch it, support for it online will help massively.
Mark is an amazing creator. He has made many ambitious film projects over the years which he releases for FREE on his channel. Just 2 years ago he released In Space with Markiplier, an OVER 7 HOUR LONG, film-level quality epic which is one of the best things I've had the pleasure of watching in recent years. He is an amazing actor, aggressively passionate, and is dedicated to paying his film staff fairly and honestly. I want him to keep making things he wants to make, to succeed and pave the way further for YouTube creators to be taken seriously.
Mark is one of the most well known YouTubers ever, he's one of the biggest creators on the platform. If he can't succeed at moving into the industry, it's going to be a lot more difficult for others going forward. It sets a precedent.
SO WATCH THE EDGE OF SLEEP! Enjoy the hell out of it! Enjoy it with friends! Let's give the power to creators we actually care about! Everyone who wrote, composed or at all worked on the original podcast AND this adaptation deserve to see their ideas come to life, and the recognition for this awesome product they've created for all of us to see!
