Actor Mark - Blog Posts

Actor Mark and Bryce fistfight when?

Markiplier and Brandon Rogers both had a Tumblr and they were mutuals.

I did another :)

(I think we know why ‘Hero’ has a question mark after it)

@heavy-metal-papillon I love this so much, I had to extrapolate

So, I said this in a post a little while ago, but Actor manipulates the shit out of Roman, constantly planting ideas of how similar they are and talking about how everyone else is going to abandon them so he should stay vigilant. And Roman, who wants to believe the best in his friends but is self-conscious (very notably in the series), trusts fully in Actor, loving his natural creative genius and his ability to create in general. And Actor loves how much Roman feeds his ego, so of course he keeps him around.

However, Janus sees right through Actor’s bullshit. (My characterization of Janus is a bit sympathetic, so hang with me.) He doesn’t necessarily like Roman, but he’s not stupid. He knows Actor is only using Roman. And, in turn, using Thomas. He isn’t quite sure what Actor is capable of, but he is not going to let Roman or Actor push him or anyone away.

So while Actor is trying to convince Roman to be his right-hand man and leave the others behind because ‘they’re just going to leave him anyways,’ Janus is working around the clock to A) Find out Actor’s true intentions and past (spoilers: it ain't great) and B) Make sure Roman is always hanging out with the other sides. In his mind, even Remus bothering him is better than Roman hanging out with Actor.

And Roman is confused, conflicted with everything he feels between everyone, but is none the wiser.

Me, looking at two characters that don’t know each other and are from completely different medias: Their relationship is so toxic 🥰

You wanna know what's fucked up? That Anti and Canon!Jack are called ‘comedy duo.’ COMEDY DUO. As if Anti hasn’t possessed and murdered (or at least attempted to murder) Jack out of cold blood. Out of all of the ego character pairings to get that name, you chose those two?! That's like calling Dark and Actor Mark ‘Bestie Duo’ or Patton and Logan ‘Muder duo.’

I get it's an inside joke, but the name is WILDLY misleading.

How do you think Markiplier's egos and Sanders Sides would interact with one another?

I am so glad you asked! (This is gonna be long)

For context, I imagine the reason they all met was some time-warp space fuckery, and right now the sides only chance at survival is kinda hanging out with the egos until something can get sorted.

As a whole, everything is relatively peaceful. Is there Drama? Of course. But nothing too terrible. Maybe a physical altercation on a bad day, but nothing that would get the sides thrown out.

Let's get the obvious out of the way: Remus and Wilford would hang out. Remus would be fascinated by how off the walls Wilford could get and Wilford wouldn’t think twice about Remus’s insane sentinces. He’s like that Marge meme of ‘I just think he’s neat!’ Remus doesn’t really care about the others, but he loves asking Google fucked-up questions because he’ll just answer. No hesitation. And Remus thinks that's hilarious. Also him and Heehoo have to be kept in separate rooms after the incident.

Patton and Stan would be IMMEDIATE FRIENDS. I’m talking first day of knowing each other, Patton has already made friendship bracelets, Stan makes sure Patton is taking care of himself, and they have a ‘dad club’ that consists of only them two. And they match! They have basically adopted the others as their own, even Patton sometimes able to help Dark. The only person he hasn’t ‘officially’ adopted is Yancy. Patton found out Yancy was a self-made orphan and decided ‘he’s just, like, a friend’ because Patton values his life. (But if we're getting into uncanon egos, Patton basically adopted Erek Derekson and Hates Derek Derekson. Like I fully believe if you put this two face-to-face, they would fight. Patton deserves to go ape-shit as a treat :) )

Logan doesn’t necessarily like Google, but out of all the others, he tolerates Google the most. They pretty much work together to try and get things figured out for everyone, and their relationship is strictly work colleagues. Until Logan found out Google also really likes space. Now he’s intrigued. Another ego that intrigues him are The Jims. Its because he’s heard of a side splitting, but not infinitely splitting. Now he’s begun keeping a tiny notebook on everything he’s learned about the others.

Roman is the most active when it comes to hanging out with the other egos. Him and Yancy definitely bond over their love of musicals and their (chosen) family. For Illinois, however, I feel like they’re either partners or rivals, no in-between. If they’re partners, total bond over their love of adventure and constant compliments. If rivals, very catty behavior from both of them about how self-absorbed the other is. Roman and Dark have a mutual hatred for each other. Roman thinks Dark is the Villain while Dark hates any idea of a hero after Actor. Also Roman found out Dark was twins that re-merged and gained a new fear. And finally, Actor manipulates the shit out of Roman, constantly planting ideas of how similar they are and talking about how everyone else abandoned them so he should stay vigilant.

Janus probably talks to the others the least, keeping his distance and watching from afar. However, he does enjoy learning about the others through the sides that talk to him. Whether it's frustrations or compliments, he takes a mental note of it all. The only person he doesn’t know about at all is Actor, and Roman would love to keep it that way. Janus also loves knocking the more egotistical egos down a peg with off-handed comments. Luckily, that hasn't wound up in anything bad. And while he does do this, he would protect them if it came down to it. While he doesn’t like them, others do. And they all have a use.

Virgil, surprisingly enough, found his way near Dark. I think Dark realizes Virgil’s ‘potential’ and keeps him nearby because if anyone were to stop Virgil, it would be Dark. And if anyone were to help Dark, it would be Virgil. (You know Virgil’s voice thing when he gets anxious? Yeah, I’m gonna be the first to assume it doesn’t stop there.) Virgil over time realizes Dark is a lot like Logan and Janus, meaning he's keeps to himself a lot and attempts to hide his emotions a lot. But because Virgil is near Dark, he’s gotten to know all the others (as well as Dark) very well. Virgil nearly sprinted towards Logan once he found out Heehoo had a scientific name. Also Virgil was the first Side to find out about Dark and Wilford’s Past, which was shocking for him because some of the other egos don’t know his past.

So that's my head canons, feel free to tell me your own, and I hope you have a good day!

Things that mean different things in my different fandoms:

Puppets:

For Thomas it's a happy learning moment

For Mark it's angst time with a possibility of death

For Jack it's just a scary, scary death

2.Dark sides:

For Thomas, it's Virgil, Remus, and Janus

For Mark, it's Dark (The original dark side)

For Jack, it's Anti (The original glitch bitch)

3.Actors/Acting

For Thomas, it's Roman and an opportunity

For Mark, it's ‘Actor Mark’ and Manipulation

For Jack, it's what he has to do to fake cry during his projects, have you seen that?! I was stunned! Speechless!

4.Loops

Thomas’s most severe problem with loops is fruit

Mark is trapped in literal time loops and space tears in the fabric of the universe

Jack is stuck in ‘Fucking circles’ doing things ‘over and over’

5.Choices

Thomas, very calmly, goes through his choices in every episode with each of his sides

Mark doesn’t really get a choice, but you do! You get many choices

Jack really has no choice and is stuck in the middle of whatever the fuck Anti and IRIS are doing

6.Interview

Thomas’s 5 year anniversary babey!

Mark’s universe just has Wilford asking some questions

Jack, please, give Chase a break! He’s just a boy!

I’m writing Roman (Sander Sides) and The Actor (Who killed Markiplier) meeting and holy shit, the manipulation go crazy.

Lowkey wanna post it, not sure though.

If this helps anyone, here's the way I think of it:

It goes who killed Markiplier, wilford motherlovin warfstache, Damien, Markiplier tv, a heist with Markiplier, a date with Markiplier

Because iswm constantly hops between different times, it has existed at all of these moments in history at once. That's why D!Mark asks us on a second date, that's why we visit Yancy in prison and find out he tried out for parole, and that's why we seemingly hop from place to place even before we get to any of those points. All because of the warp crystal.

It's also why Dark talks to us in ahwm, because he can now teleport to wherever he wants at any time he wants. Sorry if this was long but I hope it helped <3

I guess what i find so frustrating is that the markiplier cinematic universe feels like the fnaf lore and it could be easily explained that the reason that it doesn’t matter where ahwm,adwm, and iswm is because none of this is real because the house is putting you into this purgatory of stories to leave you to rot into eternity but thats not canon just some shit i made up

Like none of this makes sense and thats the point of it from a STORY point but from a storyline perspective its confusing as hell

Only difference is that fnaf is supported to be in chronological order and the Mcu is supposed to not have a timeline

You see my dilemma
