If there was a Sander Side Themed The Road To El Dorado, these are the best pairings I can think of (ignoring the ships it implies)—
Roman as Miguel, Logan as Tulio, Janus as Chel
Remus as Miguel, Janus as Tulio, Virgil/Dark!Logan as Chel
And if I had to put them all as characters—
Janus: Chel (master of deception, the entire reason Miguel and Tulio get away with their lives, the only one in the trio with a braincell count in the double digits)
Logan: Speaker For The Gods dude (was adhering to the rules/lore that had been written, tried to bring down the liars who dared to impersonate gods by going batshit evil, 'being feared is the only way you can get them to respect you')
Remus: The King (sharp enough to notice Miguel and Tulio are only human, goofy enough to let them pretend to be gods because it's really raising his people's spirits and they got rid of The Speaker For The Gods, his rival)
Roman: The Horse (he's just along for the drama, baby)
Patton: Miguel (nice, friendly, hates that the villagers are scared of him, doesn't have a voice in his head, no braincells just a himbo)
Virgil: Tulio (wants to finish the plan and get out, much more anxious than Miguel, comes up with all the excuses to get them out of trouble, has like seven braincells but not all of them work at the same time)
Sometimes I remember things about myself like that I have a chronic illness or that I'm part of an oppressed group or that I've actually been catcalled and I'm like oh worm I forgot about that
Another fun fact: Roman, Remus, and Virgil's were all in the same fic
Roman: Threw himself down a staircase
Orange: Kissed Logan years after they broke apart their mutually toxic relationship
Janus: Fell off a cliff (and just barely caught himself)
Remus: Made a painting with his own blood
Patton: Agreed to go on a long hike with his friends when he's never been able to before (and was out of breath by the top of the first hill and had to be carried by Remus)
Logan: Realized wayyy too late that Remus (his best friend and previous roommate) and Roman (his friend and current roommate) were brothers
Virgil: Met Roman and in less than a minute, in his second sentence spoken to him, called him out for self-harming
Can you imagine Remus trying for hours to create a perfectly normal animal for Patton for his birthday but he's running out of time so like
Remus: *pops up, holding creature*
Roman: *immediately draws sword* Are you trying to KI—
Remus: No! No, no, it's not a cat.
Creature: *looks exactly like a cat*
Remus: Well, not really. See, I made it look like a cat, cuz Patton loves cats, but he's allergic. So it's not really a cat.
Roman: *half-lowers sword* How do we know you're telling the truth?
Remus: Um... If I was trying to be evil, I'd do it much more bluntly?
Roman: *sheaths sword* That's true.
Patton, looking at the creature: Aw, kiddo, it's so cute! Does it have a name?
Remus: Um, no, I thought I'd let you name it. If— if you want it.
Patton: Of course I do! Aw, that's so sweet of you.
Remus: *hands creature to Patton* Just be kinda careful, I'm still new to making normal creatures, so it might be a bit—
Creature: *starts to yawn, as it's mouth gets widest it breaths a spiral of fire, closes its mouth and does a little mlem at the end*
Remus: ...odd.
Everyone: *carefully watching Patton's reaction*
Patton: Kiddo...
Patton: ...I LOVE IT! Oh my goodness!
Patton, scratching the creature's stomach, in a baby-voice: Who's the cutest little not-kitty? You are! Who's my cute little fire-breathing-cat-lookalike? You are!
Remus, softly: *eyes tearing up* He likes it.
Roman: *solemnly sets hand on his shoulder* You did good. You're making us proud as a club member.
Remus: *sniffle* I like this club.
More beans: Acquired!
Patterns: cut
Colors: matched
Bois: pinned together
Reference boi: ready
Special eyes for the special boi: Ready
I had a cursed thought (Remon and Romus) and had to continue (disregarding the cool, plausible names, like Vergilius and Romulus)
Janus, Janan
Remus, Remon
Virgil, Virgus, Virgan
Roman, Romus
Logan, Logus
Patton, Pattus
Thomas, Thomus, Thomon
Janus’s light side name is Janan
You know how the Spider-Characters's Spidey Sense go off in Into The Spiderverse when they meet? That's literally just queer people meeting irl
And now, a new one
Heart broke: Good Omens isn't a romance because while Crowley has been in love with Aziraphale for 6000 years, Aziraphale is either too oblivious or scared to see what's right in front of him and pushes Crowley away
Broke: Good Omens isn't a gay love story because Crowley and Aziraphale aren't in love
Woke: Good Omens is a gay love story because Crowley and Aziraphale are in love
Bespoke: Whether Good Omens is a gay love story or not is debatable; it is, however, undeniably a story of the love between Crowley and Aziraphale (whatever type of love that may be)
Neil Gaiman: Good Omens isn't a gay love story because while Crowley and Aziraphale are in love, they are not human males, they are an angel and a demon
(When nobody else could open the envelope) Janus rolled their eyes, picking up the letter and opening it. "Dear..."
“I feel like Batman. I must go, Gaythem needs me. But Remus you’re coming with me.”
“Oh, I feel the love. I was singing too, where's my hug?”
“I’m not judging you. I’m just, well, judging you."
“If you want to talk, we’re here to listen."
“I’m polyamorous. That's not my thing, I’m still thinking, I just wanted to help move the attention off of you, um, ‘cuz Remus already knows that, um…"
“Put that on your resume. 'You’re good at that,’ Roman Prince."
“Who are these kids? I just wanna talk," Janus said, cracking their knuckles.
“For the record, you're perfectly valid."
Remus thinks this is the funniest thing and keeps trying to wear revealing clothes to hear Logan say it again but nothing
Then one day he gives up and is wearing normal clothes
Logan, still straight-faced: Prude.
Remus:
Patton: (unbuttons polo one button more than usual because it's hot out)
Logan, completely straight-faced: Whore.
Patton:
Patton: (unbuttons the next button just to see what will happen)
Remus: Is doing pretty well, has continued to stab needles and sewing scissors into his eyes so his workspace is a bit bloody, you can tell he is making an octopus though
Virgil: Refuses to use a sewing machine because it scares him (a very reasonable fear), uses thimbles, it's slow and clumsy but he makes a pretty cool stuffed stormcloud in the end
Patton: Is doing surprisingly well! He keeps stabbing his fingers with needles on accident and drawing blood (not much though), he ends up with a cute little blob frog that's definitely friend-shaped
Logan: He watched Janus sew once and immediately got the hang of it. He made a stuffed cube. It is a perfect cube. None of them know how he did this. He can't thread a needle to save his life though, he has to keep asking Janus to do it for him
Roman: Was crying because he tried something much too complicated and failed and Janus had to gently coax him back to the workspace and help him make a simpler design and assure him he wasn't a failure and the second design turned out and he was really happy with it and thanked Janus for not giving up on him and Janus just gave him a little smile
He/they (both equally good)I love asks, requests, general interaction, and stuff like that!Mostly various fandom stuff, I'm just having a good time and enjoying myselfI hope I can make you smile :)
