59 parts Complete "There are smarter, more fun ways to get what you want..." Janus Sanders, Selflessness vs Selfishness. In the weeks after the trial Deceit makes good on these words and begins a plan to get Thomas to that callback. No matter the cost.
Patton falls suddenly ill, also literally falls, from a snake bite. They all knew the culprit, the only things they didn't know was how to confront Bananaconda and what heinous demands he'd have to cure the happy pappy. If any sort of arrangement could be reached at all. None of that stops a former Dark Side from putting it all on the line. Someone had to save Patton, no matter the cost.
For all that those four little words had been thrown around no one knew just how powerful and dangerous they were, until a Side is without a heart, a famILY is torn apart, another still hasn't been regained, and their host might slip down a darker path than anyone anticipated.
This fic was based around a pair of animatics made by beatrice difolco.Please search up her works "Sanders Sides Animatic- Friends on the Other Side," and "Sanders Sides Animatic-The Bad Guy."
