yknow i havent seen one of these and it’s been plaguing me for like a week and ive gotten extremely attached to it so (there’s a lot of angsty stuff here so let me know if i missed tagging something please. the last thing i want to do is upset someone)
give me a single dad Remus au
give me an ace Remus who met someone when he was young and didn’t know any better and fell fast and hard. She was quickwitted and knew how to keep up with him like no one else. Didn’t realise until too late that she had a nasty side. That she had criminal history and gang affiliations. Didn’t realise she was abusive and manipulating. Didn’t realise he should leave until his first son was on the way. Give me a Remus who does everything he can to raise and protect his son, to give him a better childhood than his brother and he did, who when times were bad has to ask Roman to babysit indefinitely and a Roman who despite any grudges is always there for his brother.
Their first boy, little William, got his mother’s sharp tongue and his dad’s creativity and knows how to talk to save his own skin. He likes snakes and dinosaurs and chocolate brownies and the colour yellow. He lies too much, but it’s necessary. It’s sad that it’s necessary. Doesn’t change the fact that it is. William is blind in one eye. Remus will not talk about how it was William’s mother’s fault, but he certainly will never forget. William will be about seven, maybe eight, in our story. (William as a name for Deceit is a theory i read somewhere and i love - like ‘wiles’ being cunning/devious plans, it’s like wiles-i-am. also william snakespeare. i just like the name) She decides they’re having another child, and so they have another child. Little Virgil. Virgil is a very anxious baby, but he likes blankets, elephants, mismatched buttons and the colour purple. He is probably about 18 months when Remus’ partner (finally) gets arrested.
It was really about time. Turns out she was involved in several illicit operations, including drug smuggling. The abuse really just topped the charges off.
So now Remus has to step up, raising his kids, getting William through school, working three jobs to make enough for them and to pay Roman back because Roman lets them live with him. He doesn’t know what he’d do without his brother. Roman is patient. Roman forgives him. Roman understands he doesn’t know what he’s doing and helps as best he can. They’re brothers. They stick together.
William’s form room teacher is Logan. Logan, who notices things - like how William will lie to defend himself and those he’s decided to call friend. How he will always share his lunch even though he doesn’t really have enough to do so. How his clothes are kind of threadbare. How his eyesight in his one good eye isn’t particularly good. He finds an old pair of his twelve-year-old son Patton’s glasses that’d fit the boy and all of a sudden William is doing better in class. He starts packing a little extra for lunch each day to give the boy. He steps in to help in as many quiet little ways as he can. Parent Teacher interviews end up being quite emotional. Remus is blown away that someone can be so quietly kind to a stranger’s child.
Logan and Remus will quietly fall in love. Remus is terrified of making the same mistakes as before but their sons get along like a house on fire and he’s never met anyone more genuine than Logan. He’s terrified that maybe this isn’t actually love and he’s just convinced himself he likes the next pretty face and sharp tongue, but Logan isn’t like that and Remus is never rushed or forced into anything he’s not comfortable with and it’s so new for him. And he’s terrified that Remus will turn out just like his ex, and leave his boys with nothing, but somehow he just keeps managing to pull off this good-person thing again and again.
And eventually, against all odds, Remus gets his happy ending.
yeah……….. i’ve just been thinking.
(really rough) family portrait
@leiasolo77 i expanded on our conversation more hope you dont mind the tagging
*grabby hands* If/when you write it, pls tag me
I’m a sucker for mini foods, and i was just struck by the idea that a infinitesimal Patton makes cooking videos and sure things looks a bit weird and out of proportion, but no one can really tell he’s a tiny until he asks Thomas to help him with something and this BIG hand appears on the camera as Thomas arrives asking what he needs help with.
The Youtube following hit a small dip from those who does not like borrowers, but then it just shot into the air as more people saw it. It’s Patton’s most popular video.
Thomas is so proud of him.
Here’s a compilation of most of the baby!Sides suggestions that were in my inbox! 💙
@/anon Thank you! I hope you like Remus and Dee cheering Virgil on as he takes his first steps :D
@bexxbeauty I did yours in combination with @notalwaysthevillian‘s great suggestion of baby!Virgil and baby!Patton napping together ♥
@cardigancladclod his first instinct was to twist it and mess it all up.Later on he probably disassembled it. For science.
@/Disney anon: I absolutely had to put Remus in here as well because brother bonding time..! Unfortunately, Remus isn’t very much interested in the romantic scenes.. But he’s wide awake during any and all action and villain scenes lol
@thatanimegirl0 Thank you!! :D Also that someone definitely had to be Virgil because I have a soft spot for big brother Virgil to a toddler!Deceit haha
Note: Please, don’t send in any more suggestions as I have enough in my inbox that I still need to decide on what to do with. Thank you! :)

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Ik freaking adore this!!
Some character designs for my human au: Jelly Rats & Pasta Stars (aka Papa Thomas and Kiddo Deceit AU) ((I’m planning to write it... i just have no idea how the heck i want it to play out... i don’t even have any key points))
“Thomas hadn’t really planned on becoming a single parent, yet here he was, taking care of a 3 year old orphan boy who seemed to hate him… it was hard to know when the kid didn’t speak to him despite having been in his care for a few weeks.”
The main characters. single dad Thomas and foster child Deceit (Lloyd in this au) and the neighbour father and son the Picani’s.
I probably won’t do the other characters: Thomas’s friends, the rest of the sides, the figments, cartoon therapy characters. but if i do... it might take a while... it all depends on my creativity and motivation (which has been extremely low recently).

Awwwwe!!
This is ADORABLE!
I DIED & RESURRECTED
AWWW
Fluffy headcannons? Well, I work with kids a lot and kids up to about age 6 or 7 genuinely don’t think lying is bad so consider baby deceit and Patton tricking the others for fun by pretending to be each other because it’s not ‘wrong’ to lie yet. Patton making dee wear his glasses and dee stealing some of Romans makeup to put the scales on Patton while they giggle to each other about how sneaky they are and how they’ll trick the others. It never works but they have fun
that is frigging adorable
like does he summon everyone like that? does he only summon roman by pulling on his hair because he knows that will get his attention? do all the sides have different ways in summoning different people? I NEED ANSWERS (and headcanons)
Roman = hair
Patton = Cardigan, now cat hoodie
Virgil = Hood (cue Virgil giving away several coughing and hacking noises once he’s summoned)
Deceit = By the SCRUFF OF HIS CAPE!
@randomslasher I’m pretty sure virgil with baby patton would just be pure panic altho compared to the other sides he’d probably be the best choice responsibility wise
hnnnnng my heart can’t handle it
Between ‘play dough is for playing not for eating’ ‘not the right time buddy’ and simultaneously wanting to murder Roman and running round like a maniac trying to make sure his play goes perfectly - Virgil confirmed as Mom Friend.
This is perfect and I love it
Single dad of three Virgil will forever be my favorite Virgil headcanon
