Spoilers (sorta) for the new Sanders Sides video.
Logan angst.
...
Usually, Logan was quite observant. When it came to everything but emotions, he could see things that the others just couldn't. He kept his figurative mind palace very organized, having a section for Thomas, all of the Sides, and everything in between.
He'd prided himself on his views, and although it wasn't often, he reveled in compliments from the others. "You're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right..." Thomas had said in their newest Sanders Sides video.
"Well now you're just pandering to my fondness for being told that I'm right."
He might talk big and proud about what Thomas needed to do to be a happy, healthy human being, but in all honesty, he didn't even follow it himself. It was easier to tell Thomas to take care of himself than it was for him to take care of his own body.
The Sides, although figments of Thomas' imagination, did have to take care of themselves as if they were humans, just like Thomas. They needed to eat, sleep, shower, and all that joyful stuff. They could be independent from Thomas.
Example: Virgil, over time, had trained himself to not require as much sleep as Thomas to function, considering he didn't actually do all that much. He did need to take a day to sleep 13+ hours every once in a while, though.
Logan hadn't actually noticed his own weight loss compared to Thomas and the other Sides, until he watched Thomas edit the footage. All five of them had walked around in the frame when they weren't speaking, such as walking into frame, or walking away from the camera, showing their full bodies.
Although all that footage had been cut in the final version of the video, he noticed the full-body view of himself compared to the others.
He watched footage of himself walk over to the dining room table to put the magazine on the table, and it didn't escape his focus how much skinnier he looked compared to the others.
Logan knew he didn't eat as much as he should, but he didn't think that it was all that big of a deal. He himself would eat maybe four of the six small meals he'd proposed to Thomas. Sometimes three or less, sometimes small became tiny, and sometimes, he wouldn't abide by this strategy at all, skipping out on all of them if he had a lot of work to do.
He hadn't even noticed it, but when he thought back, Logan had recently been really busy. And it showed on the video.
Now, he could only hope that no one else noticed; the fans or otherwise.
He didn't really see it as a big deal, and he really hoped that Patton wouldn't realize, most likely the one to blow the whole thing out of proportion. Logan was fine. He didn't need anyone to fuss over him. He was really good at hiding his emotions, and he would continue to do so.
He had work to do.
...
Thomas said he noticed a weight loss in when he filmed Logan compared to when he filmed Thomas. This is me playing off that idea.
Depression hits the mind before the heart; Logan would succumb to the negative effects of it before the others.
(Roman also has weight loss too, soooooo...)
(I AM AWARE THIS IS PURELY THEORHETICAL AND HIGHLY COINCIDENTAL)
