I drew cat girls instead of studying
this limbo is looking fun
September 3rd has arrived and I am Here to celebrate Joan for Joan Appreciation Day! Because they are so talented and intelligent and deserve all the love and appreciation.
Joan works so flipping hard?? They do so much background work for the videos we know and love, and I am constantly amazed by them.
They have a great understanding of quality story-telling. Their encouragement to Thomas to “trust the audience” when they were writing the script and filming Moving On parts 1 and 2 is something I am still learning how to do but they did so, so well?
A lot of what we currently love about the Sides wouldn’t even exist without Joan having joined the writing team with Thomas: the Sides having names being just one example of many.
Joan is to thank for some of our favorite lines, too! (”E equals MC Scared” I know is definitely Joan’s doing haha)
On top of that, they write songs??? And they’re amazing. Both “The Things We Used to Share” and “On the Borderline” were written by Joan and I honestly can’t flipping wait for the EP Thomas has been hinting at because their music is so good?? (and also can be hilarious; Joan wrote the songs in the Tweet Tunes video)
JOAN IS HILARIOUS in general I mean any video they’re in they usually make me laugh at least once they are a gem
Joan took the lead, I believe, on the design of Deceit. And to be honest, regardless of how you morally feel about Deceit as a person/concept, Deceit’s character design is brilliantly nuanced. I mean, the whole concept of him being about the lies we tell ourselves even more than the lies we tell others?? I wrote a whole rant about how much I think Deceit’s character is just brilliantly executed but the amount of thought that went into him just still amazes me and I love it?? I can’t wait but am also scared to know what other Dark Sides they’ve got in the works, because I know Joan said their favorite is yet to make an appearance.
Joan’s acting holy smokes. Elliot is such a complex character with snark and depth and emotion and I love them (Elliot) but so much of that is because of how wonderfully Joan is able to convey those complicated feelings and thoughts as Elliot like whoa
Also, they’re so reassuring and kinda inspiring in some of the things they say. Example A: “If the people around you tell you that you’re wrong for identifying the way that you do, they have no right to say that. You are the expert on yourself. You get to tell people who you are. They don’t get to tell you who you are. You’re human. And if wherever you’re from is going in a direction that doesn’t agree with who you are, that doesn’t erase you. Your voice still matters.”
Also, they’re so incredibly dedicated. Like, can we not forget that they helped edit “Why Do We Get Out of Bed in the Morning?” (animating Roman’s part of it on top of all the other edits and such that they had to do for such an edit-heavy video) while recovering from invasive surgery?
I love them.
Happy birthday Roman!!!!! This is parental royality for the #fanderspridemeetup2019
MCC is best! Especially grid runners good hmmm
How I, personally came out to my dad: a video of me coming out of a closet saying “so I’m gay, hi Dad!”
How Phil Lester wanted to come out: opening a closet door saying “hi I’m gay”

if they are not gonna talk the entire first episode tv logic dictates they are going to have an emotionally and sexually charged flashback cold open that frames their relationship in a new light and also reminds us of their affection and adoration for each other before cutting back to the estranged present day. and that flashback’s name? s3 1941
They/them | I switch fandoms like the wind don’t come at me bro This acc is old so like if you knew me at my sander sides obsession no you don’t :)
