why hbomb94 should be the next new hermit: no listen this isn't just me being ridiculous listen listen--
okay but like. after today i am ON THIS TRAIN. i am FULLY CONVINCED that hbomb94 would be one of the BEST POSSIBLE CANDIDATES for "new hermit for hermitcraft". and please, just listen to my case for this:
so, after today, i'm fully convinced hbomb is a perfect vibes match for many hermits. he gets along well! he's actually pretty good at staying at hermitcraft levels of pg in videos (like, not swearing--he makes like, the catmaid jokes, but that's nothing worse than whatever ren gets up to on a given day). he's also relatively chill, already friends with a lot of the hermits, and connects well with them on a content creation level. like, he's excited for them, he slots into the bits well, the bits he brings to the table are picked up easily by the other hermits.
and the thing is... okay i KNOW hbomb isn't a huge base builder. i watched vault hunters smp too. but the thing is... he doesn't have to be! you see, there's a certain hermit niche they haven't invited a new hermit into in a while, and that's the niche that someone like joe hills or zedaph (or i'd argue etho or cubfan) occupies. it's the 'weird' niche. i don't think hbomb would be a builder hermit. i don't think he'd be a redstoner either. what he'd be good at is things like... hermits helping hermits! building minigames! have you seen hbomb actually, half of what he did on dsmp or on his main youtube is building minigames and escape rooms. he'd have good vibes! he'd show up to all the events! he'd probably RUN some events!
what he'd be is a new chill, friendly niche hermit, and i think we need more of those? more of the hermits who WON'T be building megabases, but WILL be building games, helping collect resources, and inventing new strange things to do. yes, sure, once again: i know hbomb isn't a builder, and next to someone like joel, that probably puts him out of contention, but... the last two hermits they invited were builders. they need a hype guy. an event guy. another team player. the escape rooms would be ENRICHMENT. it would be wonderful.
plus, i don't think he'd ever stop being a delightful audience insert about the other hermit projects. plus plus, i think he and scar and cub would definitely do a catmaid bit we'd all regret. plus plus plus i think he could do his rant about how weird beetroot is and the hermits would appreciate him for it.
as such i actually think hbomb slots in BEST of the visitors from today as a new hermit. (this is also in part because the empires crew tends to prefer much shorter seasons on their servers than hermitcraft has if they don't want to get bored and the hermits have pretty definitively decided they don't like short seasons. it's also a vibe check. skizz for hermitcraft fans, i am shaking your hand and saluting you, my guy who can't build and your guy who can't build should be hermits who join for similar reasons, we are friends.)
anyway will this actually happen? probably not. but like. listen. for the first time since hbomb hermit adoption arc started this feels VIABLE and i feel the need to make my case for why i want him on because the moment the season rolls over and we start speculating about new hermits this is the guy who has my vote please do you understand now please he'd be so fun--

Y'all remember that MCYT PJO au I asked for help with awhile ago? WELL HERE'S THE CABINS AND MY EXPLINATIONS BEHIND THEM!!
#1 Zeus Cabin: Jimmy, Joel Jimmy: He's a Zeus kid, but everyone somehow forgets about it. Joel: He's competitive and strong. Also, because Jimmy is his half brother through godly parent, i get to make a fun bit about him dating Lizzie. And one of his origins in Afterlife SMP was a thunderborn
#2 Hera Cabin: Scott Scott: Scott's whole thing is loyalty. Hera is the goddess of marriage and is insanely loyal to Zeus. However, I feel like Hera should get at least one affair. So now Scott can use peacocks as weapons.
#3 Poseidon Cabin: Skizz Skizz: Poseidon kids tend to be really, really loyal to a fault and heroic, both qualities I think Skizz possesses.
#4 Demeter Cabin: Sausage, Shelby, Bdubs, Stress Sausage: This man built Sanctuary in a jungle and has flowers in his hair. He sells wood. There is no other place to put him. Shelby: Mushroom gnome, spooky mangrove witch, powerful storm witch, i need not continue. Bdubs: Moss man. Stress: SHE HAS FLOWERS
#5 Ares Cabin: Martyn, False Martyn: His planet is Mars, which is the roman version of Ares. He ended Limited Life in such a violent way, i can't help it. He was also red for the majority of Secret Life. False: I just feel like False should get to kill people more often.
#6 Athena Cabin: Grian, Pix, Owen, Xisuma Grian: This sums it up pretty well
Tumblr media
Pix: Smart man. Archeologist and definitely a nerd. I wanna see him skipping out on training just so he can read history books. Owen: He likes to explore and discover new things in Pirates. In Rats, he's a tinkerer. In New Life, he's an explorer who wants to study hybrids. In Empires, he's a Llama who's curious about how humans work. Just a very curious character overall. Xisuma: Admin. I'm not elaborating.
#7 Apollo Cabin: Gem, Oli, Lyarrah Gem: She is an Apollo kid because of her Empire in S2. She's the sunlight princess. Apollo kid. Oli: MUSIC. MAN. Lyarrah: She writes the captions for the hermitcraft recap.
#8 Artemis Cabin: Pearl Pearl: Y'know, Artemis could've just like... had a kid, even though she took that oath. It wouldn't even have to be with a guy. Gods can change to whatever gender they want. Anyway, Pearl gets to be an Artemis kid because her symbolism is moon, she loves dogs, and will commit murder and hunt at night.
#9 Hephaestus Cabin: Doc, Mumbo, Tango, Impulse, Cub, Zedaph, Fwhip, Iskall Doc: Redstone Mumbo: Redstone Tango: Redstone Impulse: Redstone Cub: Redstone Zedaph: Redstone Fwhip: Redstone AND has a red scarf (don't ask me how that's relevant) Iskall: Redstone
#10 Aphrodite Cabin: Keralis Keralis: Okay, I don't know why, but Keralis gives me the vibes of a very charming person. His voice is nice to listen to, so imagine how useful it'd be if I gave him charm speak.
#11 Hermes Cabin: Scar, Etho, Joe Scar: Trader Scar, scammer extraordinar. Etho: All i must say is Shady-E's. I get "jack-of-all-trades, master of none, often better than master of one" vibes from him. He's funny, he's mischievous, it just works. Joe: Comedy man. Excellent delivery. And, yet again, i look at this man and go "That right there is a multi-talented man with a habit for mischief."
#12 Dionysus Cabin: Joey, Beef Joey: *points at his season one empires theme* i need not say more Beef: Idk, food. I don't really have a reason. I don't know too much about Beef.
#13 Hades Cabin: Zloy Zloy: Zombie man. He writes the Hermitcraft recaps in the dark at 2am with nothing but pure spite.
#14 Iris Cabin: Katherine Katherine: SHE. HAS. COLORS. and also I couldn't put her in Demeter cabin because Shelby is already there and i am NOT excluding Nature Wives from this au
#15 Hypnos Cabin: Bigb, XB, Wels Bigb: Sleepy stuff, right? WRONG. Gaslight. Go in everyones dreams, make fake prophecies, peace out, and cause chaos. XB: I look at his fanon design, I see an alien, and I go "aha he sleeps" Wels: This guy (@dingdinghq) said so and i completely agree. Something about sleeping in S6.
#16 Nemesis Cabin: Edit: wels not here no more
#17 Nike Cabin: Ren Ren: VICTORY. I don't know much about Ren's story in the Life Series, but I look at this man and see someone who has won a lot.
#18 Hebe Cabin: 
#19 Tyche Cabin: TFC TFC: Man goes mining and gets really lucky. That's it.
#20 Hecate Cabin: Lizzie, Cleo, Jevin Lizzie: Witchy vibes. Also, Arson. Cleo: Arson. She uses her magic for Arson. Jevin: He's a magic slime. Also, Arson. All Hecate kids love Arson.

Doing a Summary of the French ccs' Lore (because we are forgotten)
(this last part is a joke don't take it too seriously)
Making a post with the lore we know about every French ccs for those who don't follow them religiously : (I might forget some things because I'm not an encyclopedia)
BAGHERA JONES :
Has said in the past she does see herself (her character) as human, like in the "Regret" animation but has also talked about "dying her feathers" instead of hair, and discussed with mike about not really having hair. Her species/lineage/anything you want to call it doesn't seem to be something set in stone.
When asked from where she comes from she answers Switzerland. It seems to have been accepted by Cucurucho. (also knows about The Shit Tower from the Team du Lundi server, though that might not be really lore accurate)
Doesn't seem to be interested in leaving the island itself, but is REALLY interested in freeing herself and the others from the Federation.
Considers BBH and Forever as her family alongside the rest of the french. Both Pomme and Dapper are her adopted kids.
Has both an underground Base and a Castle far north.
Dropped out of the election on her own accord, jumping from the top of her castle's highest tower.
(note : Please admins, cook something for her... She needs it... She tried for days to solve the book thingy, and Cellbit ended up having the last clues and doing it himself... Please I beg you...)
ETOILES :
Is a masked anthorpomorphic cucumber. No ambiguity about that.
When asked where he comes from, it alternates between France, and Far Away (if I remember well) (Was also part of the Team du Lundi server, but nothing confirms it is part of his canon lore).
What does seem to be conserved is his familiarity with all the french ccs : His close joke-flirting relationship with Antoine, his friendly banters with Baghera, his kind of disciple in redstone and create relationship with Aypierre, and his friendship with Kamet0.
Actually enjoying his time on the Island because of the challenges it offers him. Particularly enjoys showing the Federation and The Codes how they can do nothing against him. Considers himself a simple Warrior.
Has a cave a la BatCave but spends most of his time exploring and far away from it.
His favorite thing is bringing loot and stuff to the other residents.
Is freindly with everyone, and enjoys every egg, with particular admiration to Dapper.
(note : #EtoilesIsMyPresident)
AYPIERRE :
A simple human (note : a headcanon I like and that his community has kinda adopted is imagining him with Doc Ock style mechanical arms)
Comes from a random place in France he wrote kind of has a joke to Cucurucho. As for a potential server he could come from the guy is one of the oldest mc cc on the INTERNET. I could not tell you.
We don't really know his feelings on the island, but is portrayed as an opportunist and enjoyer of contracts. Absolutely willing to have deals with the Federation, though also interested in helping the others leave the island.
"n° 1 Gegg fan". Built a Gegg generator and is behind the Geggpocalypse of the election dinner.
Has a fun uncle/nephew relationship with Richarlyson, he revealed the Geggpocalypse to him before anyone else, and is building a winery to run with him.
Has a small house with multiple elevators and teleport pads leading to his huge Factory complex he will open to the public soon.
"I'm secretly building a machine.." before being cut off by Slime saying "WTF MAN THIS IS CRAZY".
(note : We don't know what that last part is about though most likely linked to the lore he's been brewing with the admins that is coming early August)
ANTOINE DANIEL :
We have no idea what he is, though might appears "human". "We all have multiple faces, Im just the only one showing them all". *about the face that was on his inside layer on his old skin* "I'd rather not talk about that, it's private."
Comes from France, though his reference to the Shit Tower into the new Shit Palace might mean he comes from the Team du Lundi server.
We don't know his feelings on the island, though distrustful of the Federation.
Lives in his Shit Palace that is currently unfinished, with the Moon and it's ring above. Has a secret room under called "La Fin du Monde (the end of the world)" with (old and not updated) thoughts about the residents of the island.
Is easily distrustful though trusts the french the most, and confides most of his secrets in Pomme.
Has a weird admiration/obession with Cucurucho.
(note : Come back antoine, I miss the kids...)
KAMET0 :
Ah ah ah ah... ah.
Etoiles did say he might come back at some point to do a cameo, tough not regularly.
(note : come back to the village Sasuke...)

Transcript of Dream’s message re: DSMP
Hey guys! Dream just tweeted this voice message out on private twitter discussing the future of the Dream SMP. Here’s my transcription of it.
I see a lot of buzz on twitter so I thought I’d talk about it. The dream smp is coming back, there’s a lot of big plans, that’s a thing I guess. People were talking about is it gonna be reboot is it gonna be reset, what now?
One thing I’ve never wanted to do and I feel like I’ve been very strong on the discord and to everyone in general having discussions about it is that we’re not resetting the map, getting rid of the old history, the lore. If we wanted to do that, we’d just do a new server. The thing that makes the Dream SMP unique is the lore and the history.
But that being said SMP servers in general usually do resets every couple of months or whatever cause it does get stale because of the limitations of Minecraft once you get certain items so it does get boring for some people and that’s kinda a shared thing amongst everybody. People like George being like ‘Oh I’m not a builder so there’s nothing I can do on the server because I can’t get on and kill anyone cause everyone has netherite,’ or it’s Tubbo who is more of a builder but once he gets to a certain point its like there’s not that much to do. You’ve already built what you want to build, you’ve built all your redstone machine whatever so it’s kind of a problem related to SMPs.
I do genuinely think we have a solution that we all came up with together. I think I’ve talked individually with every member of the SMP bar maybe one or two that we haven’t linked up with and some stuff is definitely happening. It will be unique. It will be a way we can kind of have the best of both worlds and have an awesome season 2 to the Dream SMP while including stuff from season 1 in a way but still to be continued and also starting things off strong.
 There’s a lot of plans put in place to hold people to play on the server and keep the same family team environment we’ve had on the Dream SMP since the beginning and everyone I’ve talked to so far has been really committed and really excited and that was something I was surprised about, I thought there’d be more people who were iffy or weren’t as interested in it. Everyone has been really hyped, it’s the same discussion that has been going on for a month and a half or so. Things have been really ironed out. There should be stuff by the end of this month. 
As for Techno's stuff, I don't think we'll continue anything to do with his character. As far as I know, he hasn't written anything for himself either. His dad did mention on a call with me the other night that he would be open to doing something related the SMP. Like a charity related thing on Techno’s behalf. So, if that ends up happening, it'd be fully related to his dad and his family. I’m sure primarily anyone who would have any involvement in it at all would be his closest friends and family. That’s all I know for Techno’s involvement.
So, yeah very long voice note, I guess. Lots of stuff coming to the Dream SMP, everyone’s excited everyone seems really interested and hyped to stream it. You guys won't expect what's coming. The story's not ending; the story’s gonna be back and better than ever but there will be a lot of things that will change things. You guys can theorise if you like the dynamics are gonna be different the relationships are gonna be different, there’s going to be a world altering event and yeah, stay tuned all your favourite streamers will be streaming it soon. Everyone will play a part. Peace!

just binged all of redstone and skulk in one go. HOLY SHIT!!! i left some comments on ao3 but that wasn't enough. i needed to come to your tumblr too bc this fic has Changed Me A Little. it makes sense- i've been subscribed to you on ao3 for a while (remember hound's tooth? i think that was when i started following your writing. and monsters splitting hairs, although i'm not quite caught up on that one), and that was for a good reason- but tanguish and helsknight are something else! part of why i like fanfiction is because i get to see more of characters i already like- it takes a special fic to get me so invested in characters i've basically just met! and you do it so well! like. the subtle character things! the way i can pick out the hermits' (and martyn's, but i'm calling him a hermit for the sake of convenience) traits in the helsmits, but warped and twisted around like a funhouse mirror? fantastic. i love it. im eating that shit up. the ilttle differences and similarities between tango and tanguish, helsknight and wels (bc he isn't acting very knightly right now), impulse and the demon- it's so cool to see! i also saw the other ask you got where you talked about your process, and how you give your characters a list of traits as a guide to writing them- i'm definitely going to have to borrow that trick. it works! so well! it shows in your writing in the consistency of how the characters behave!
some other thoughts i had while reading:
helsknight being religious probably has a lot more to do with him being a knight than wels being a lutheran irl (which is where his name comes from and i find that hilarious), but still. if it's unintentional it's hilarious and if it's on purpose then it's a fun easter egg!
i relate to and understand tanguish, because i too would want to befriend helsknight, and also because if a bunch of big scary people basically adopted me and tried to teach me how to use a knife i would be so pathetic about it.
i relate to and understand helsknight and tango, because tanguish is the weirdest little cat ever and i too am captivated by his pathetic little freak charms, and i want to be his friend.
i neither relate to nor understand wels, because 1) if i saw my friend's presumably-evil counterpart skulking around the shopping district i would likely call them first (just seems like the polite thing to do, and also bc if helsknight showed up and the ppl who found him didn't call wels about it i feel like he'd probably be more than a little pissed), and 2) look at tanguish. he's just a little guy. he's a little guy and it's his birthday. how could you be mean to him.
tl;dr: redstone and skulk has compelled me to the point that leaving comments on ao3 wasn't enough, i needed to ramble straight into your inbox because it's just so good.
Tumblr media
Oh my gosh! Firstly: thank you for all the kind words! I'm glad you're liking my writing so far, and thank you both for the comments and the scurry into the inbox. I love hearing people's thoughts, even if I don't have the spoons to respond to everyone all the time :'D
For your bullet points:
-- I didn't know Wels was Lutheran! I knew he was ex-military, and at least in my family's trends, military and religiosity go hand in hand, so it makes sense. But still! Learning new fun facts! I know nothing about the Lutheran Church [I was raised Baptist.] Probably gonna do some reading later.
-- I feel like Tanguish is going through that phase of "all the biker/military uncles have decided I'm one of them for some reason" and as someone who has gone through that before, for the same baffling non-reasons [used power tools in their presence once, a la Tanguish barely participating in a fight once] I sympathize. Very interesting somewhat scary people. Why did you invite me to sit at your table. Why do you keep slipping me tequila and buying me knives like I'm in on the joke.
-- Tanguish is such a specimen we all just want to look at him under a microscope. He is so scared yet so brave. He thinks knives are scary but he leaps off buildings. He's scared of getting hurt and seeing blood but he has no regard for his personal safety. How do you fit so many oxymorons in such a tiny body---
-- Wels please, he's a little guy and it's his birthday! Stop bullying him!!
Addendum: I agree Jackrabbit is very Tanguish coded. It is now on the playlist.
Want to live like an animal?
By the skin of your teeth?
Put your good face on, you're foolin' no one
You're a jackrabbit underneath
One step forward, step right back
Run for the hills, honey, run for the hills, honey
Run for the hills, don't look back

How did blob Sam and Blob Dream and Blob Punz come to exist? I’ve seen them referenced a couple of times and I am Curious.
Do they get the Zoomies?
oh!!!!! I zoom around you. Dream can make blob versions of his friends as part of his admin magic, little helper guys<3. The blobs are mostly just extensions of the people they were made after, connected to their thoughts/preferences.
Tumblr media
(all blob art by @corvesfelinesart, who is one of the best people in all the world)
Dream made Punz a little blob of them first, and Punz absolutely loves it. A little guy with bee wings who can hide easily, spy on people, and existence lets Dream know that Punz is okay whenever they're out doing things.
After Sam sees Blob Punz for the first time, he asks Dream, curious, if he can make one of Sam.
This was very interesting and cool for about thirty seconds until Blob Sam starts nuzzling Dream's cheek and loafing on his shoulder. That is Sam's shoulder and Sam's Dream and this false Sam is a Threat.
Of course, this only leads to Blob Sam becoming jealous over Dream, as a reflection of Sam. It doesn't matter that Sam perfectly well knows that Blob Sam is just him, he is Glaring at the evil awful little guy skittering around and chirping and receiving kisses that are meant for Sam.
Sam has managed to pick a fight with himself. Blob Sam is purposefully causing issues to get attention and also trying to trip big Sam and Sam is furious but he can do Nothing because Dream clearly loves that blob.
Dream: I love him because he's you :)
Sam: But I Am Also The Better One, Right, You Love Me More?
It's ok though he gets kisses and told he's a good boy and he's Dreams favorite Sam.
Dream teases him (1) one time that blob Sam is a little easier to carry around (when Sam is slumped on top of him) and Sam breaks down into tears. Dream has to pat him and reassure him that he's still his favorite Sam even if he's hard to carry, it's fine because it means Sam can just carry him instead. Blob Sam can't do that, can he? (Sam is carrying Dream and sticking his tongue out at blob Sam because he Won)
Also!! Originally, Blob Sam isn't jealous over blob partners, because Sam isn't jealous over blob partners.
Until Sam starts bonding with Blob Dream who enjoys hanging out with him while he does redstone, because there's lots of fun noises and he can be put in a front pocket to see everything.
and so Sam starts getting jealous over Blob Dream,
so blob Sam starts getting jealous over Blob Dream.
Blob Sam is now loafing on Blob Dream.
Sam can't bully Blob Sam within either of their sight because Dream will think he's being silly, and Blob Dream will get upset because he loves Blob Sam :(
Tumblr media
Also very important Blob Sam info. He has Toe Beans. Little Paws. Dream pokes his little toes and blob Sam chews on his finger. It is a Good Chew, A Loving Chew. Big Sam is furious because he doesn't bite Dream so Blob Sam shouldn't either.
Sam: Punz, he's breaking the rules, Punz!!!
Dream defends his little Blob Sam, because he doesn't even have teeth!!! So it can't be biting!!! He's mouthing!!! (Sam also starts mouthing Dream to display dominance.)
Meanwhile Blob Dream is wiggling to try to also get Blob Sam in the pocket because he wants to show him the redstone.
Dream ends up dropping Blob Sam into Big Sam's pocket and telling them they need to go have a get-along day. Sam is fuming the entire time, but then he gets into working on his redstone, and Blob Sam also enjoys redstone! And he can even help! He can get in all the little spots and adjust things. They are the best Redstone team, They Get All The Things Done. Sam begrudgingly begins to befriend his blob because it is actually nice to have a lil buddy for redstoning. Blob Sam gets head skritches and pocket time and zoomies and he is delighted.
When he returns and gets to cuddle with Dream again, Sam is a little less grumbly about it (but still grumbly until he gets his own cuddles.)
Sam and Dream napping in a cuddle pile while Blob Sam is tucked close to Dreams chest. Blob Dream is 100% off stealing things from the kitchen.
Maybe he just wants cheese, did anyone ever think about his needs. (He's not even eating anything, just stealing things for his hoard) (the hoard will be ruined by rats in about a week and he will Cry)
Sam helps him make a safer little box hoard that the rats can't get in, and he also makes him little food replicas rather than actual perishable foods. Blob Dream is delighted, and both Punz and Sam take some notes to make sure that Dream has a safe space for hoarding
(They get So Many Zoomies. They are filled with Love and Joy and Silliness, Your Honor.)

I Know
( hinted scarian ) desert duo fic
Summary - after limited life, everyone was soon back at their respective servers. There were still times that they have to look at their own surroundings, especially above them. Scared that something will explode again. Grian and Scar on the other hand was still there at the desert.
( Sets in during buttercup timelineee )
Grian was at their cherry tree base , just trying to figure out their last plan to get back on the goat. He thought of getting rid of the man’s redstone again but he knew the other would just start to get more for himself with all the diamonds they own now.
He sighs at the thought and lays down flat on the ground, ignoring the bed near him thats just two blocks away from him. After a bit, grian was still there, only head empty.
– Grian! “ The man in a red jumper groaned in pretend annoyance after hearing the voice. On the other hand, the guy yelling just kept on calling out for him until he was near.
“ Oh mister, don't just lay down there! It’s cold! “ Grian ignored the other by closing his eyes and putting his left arm on them. He heard a humm of disappointment on the other.
Silence was there, it was calming but also uncomfortable. There were only the two of them, the man with a moustache was a bit busy with their work and the other two decided to procrastinate on theirs.
Grian decided to remove his hands and flutter his eyes open, the first thing he saw was the brunette squatting beside him while his face was looking down directly at the other.
Grian was startled but not enough for them to stop staring at each other without any thought of talking or moving. After a minute of two Scar finally spoke.
“ You should lay down on somewhere more comfortable “ they were still on that position, awkwardly trying to communicate on who should move first.
“ No. “
Scar sighed at this response and finally stood up, the other got a little disappointed at that but his face fell while looking at what the brunette was about to do.
The man took a chair, enough for him to reach the leaves that's a substitute for a roof, he quickly moved the leaves to the side and made a bright ray of sunshine hitting the spot he wanted.
He then moved away from the area and smirked at the other. Meanwhile the dirty blonde was there trying to cover the somehow annoying light oh his face, too stubborn to even move away from his place.
“ G, c’mon now you can't be that stubborn “
“ I can, and I will! “
Scar rolled his eyes, and walked on his way to the buttercup meeting table. He pulled out a bundle filled with hia ‘ oh so famous ‘ cookies.
“ You hungry? “ Scar asked. “ Only if it’s not bread. “
Scar chuckles a bit, “ Are cookies bread? “
“ Depends if you put yeast and water in them. Do you? “
“ No! Never! “
“ Can I have some? “
“ You’re going to need to get off of there to get them “
Grian jolts up, glaring at the other whose face was in their signature smirk.
“ I hate youuu.. “
Grian stands up and walks over to the other chair beside the terraformer, The brunette handed the other the bundle while munching one of his handmades.
“ I forgot that you make really good kisses, I missed this. “
“ Why thank you, Grian! I’m glad you liked them . “
Grian humms in response, trying to not make it awkward as it ever was. “ Grian, did you ever regret it? “
“ What? “
“ oh uhm–Nothing. “
Grian heard what the other said loud and clear, but he was confused about the statement. He had many regrets, definitely more than what you can ever think of, he was just confused on what it was about.
He looked back at the bundle, filled with cookies.
Cookies.
He sees now.
“ I don’t know. “ He replies
“ I see. “ The hint of despair was there.
“ Do you want to talk about it? “ Scar looks at him, clear sorrows in his eyes. Suddenly Grian didn’t feel like eating the pastries.
Silence.
It was just silence. They knew they would have to wait for a decade to get any answer, they knew that both of them were still in pain. What they didn’t know is how they’re going to approach each other without the unfortunate atmosphere.
“ I miss mumbo. “
“ We saw him yesterday. “
“ Yeah, and I still miss him “
“ I miss us. “
Scar fiddled with his the last cookie on his hand, playing with the texture of it while knowing he won’t eat it after.
Grian was still quiet, dull, not reacting physically. Inside it did hurt, it hurt trying to leave.
“ You miss the desert, not us. “
“ It was never about the desert, G. “
“ You only cared about the monopoly. “
“ I cared about us. “
“ Surely not. “
“ I did. “
“ I was betrayed, Scar. “ Grian winced, saying his former partner’s name shouldn't be this painful.
“ I know, I’m sorry. “
“ They made me kill you. “
“ I know, and I apologise. “
“ I didn’t want to. “
“ And yet you did it again.
“ Im… I didn’t mean t... “
Scar stood up, the air felt suffocating. He couldn't look at the other, could watch the other leave. He couldn't.
“ Scar…Are you still there? “
“ You can look if you want to know. “
“ I’m sorry. “
“ I know. “
“ I’m so sorry. “
“ I know. “
“ Im.. “ Grian choked a sob, his breath hitched and it started to get really hard to breath.
“ Grian.. I forgive you. “
“ You always do. “
“ I know. Maybe next time I won’t “
“ That’s a lie, we both know it “
Scar hums in response. “ Well—Did you regret it? “
“ I regret everything. “
That’s good to know. Scar thought.
“ I’m also sorry. “ Grian looked at the other.
“ I made you feel unsafe back in uhm, last life? No double life. Uhm “
“ You shouldn’t be. “
“ Back when you were gone in the last life game. I thought. I thought you’d start yelling at me and be really mad, y’know it was a scary thought Grian! Really it was! “
“ I knew, I heard. “
“ What? “
“ I saw, I watched, I knew. “
“ And you didn’t bother telling me? “
“ We weren’t exactly allies that time. “
“ Right. Right… “
“ I was never mad. More of. Disappointed “
“ You sound like a mom! “ He tried to lighten the mood up.
“ Really Scar, I was disappointed. Not to you but myself. “
“ Scar I killed you again, by my own fault. The last thing I wanted to do! “
The brunette walks back at the table, not sitting but just standing in front of the other.
“ It wasn’t your fault. Anyone would have died in that situation. “
“ I killed us. I ruined this us that you oh so missed Scar. Yet you always seem to forgive its— this whole thing! Big distraction to get away from all my problems, from our problems! I didn’t want to think about it. Scar. Please. “
“ It’s okay G. “
“ It’s not. “
“ I know. “
“ We’re a mess aren’t we? “
“ Yeah. I forgive you by the way. “
“ I know. “

“Dude, you really need a front door.”
Impulse jumped and yelped a little too high pitched for a burly dwarf, turning around to find Doc standing behind him.
“Doc! Hi! Yeah, it’s a work in progress, you know how it goes.” Impulse chuckled and ran a hand ruefully over his beard, mentally scolding himself for not building a door. Now Doc was going to think he was less cool and put together!
“If you’re not careful, any ol’ mob could come right in.” Doc smiled, leered almost, then dropped the dramatics after a second and sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. “Impulse, I need a favor from you, and I hate to ask but I must.”
“What is it?” Impulse asked. He and Doc ran in similar circles- well, only in that they both used redstone. Impulse wasn’t, like, intimidated by Doc… not at all. They were colleagues, friends. Totally. This was a causal conversation.
“Can I be your roommate for a few weeks?”
Now that wasn’t exactly what Impulse had been expecting. “What?” He looked up at the creeper man in confusion.
“I’ve been super angry at my projects this past week, and I need someone who can handle me if I explode.” Doc explained. “I don’t want to explode, but if I do, or try to, I need someone strong to stop me.”
Impulse grinned. “So you think I’m strong?” He wiggled in a self-congratulatory kind of way, super casually flexing.
Doc snorted. “You’re a demon, and you’re currently cosplaying a dwarf who has mined out the inside of this mountain- I've seen you carrying boulders like its nothing. You’re a tank, my friend.”
Impulse knew Doc was laying on the flattery hard, but it was working, so it was acceptable. “Yes, of course you can stay here for a bit. Let me make you up a little Doc corner for you to sleep in.”
“Did someone say interior decoration?” Gem fell through a hole she had mined in the ceiling, crashing to the ground, but scrambling to her feet at once. “Well howdy Doc! It’s been a bit!” Gem took Doc’s hand from his lap and shook it vigorously. “Dang! That’s crazy, how long has it been… probs since you and Ren kept interrupting my peace and quiet with your obnoxious redstone menaces last season!” She was squeezing his hand quite tightly.
“As we can all tell, she doesn’t hold a grudge against you or anything.” Pearl appeared out of the kitchen of the dwarven keep, eating tinfoil and chips. “Also Impulse, you’re out of chips. And tinfoil. No idea why.”
“What- why are you two in my house! How did you get in? When did you get in?” Impulse sputtered.
“No front door.” Doc reminded him, pulling his definitely not throbbing hand away from Gem’s.
“Listen, if Doc is staying with you, he’ll need a cute little room. Me and Pearl are experts at decoration- let us handle making him a room! Please!!!” Gem begged.
“As long as Doc’s okay with it, sure.” Impulse chuckled, raising an eyebrow at Pearl, who was starting to inch away from Gem- clearly this was the first time she was hearing that she would be helping to decorate Doc’s room.
“Go for it- I wanna see what the best builders on the server can do.” Doc said with a smile.
“Fantastic!” Gem grabbed Pearl around the wrist. “Let’s go, Pearl!” She skipped away. “Oh, and Doc? Flattery will not work on us, redstone boy.”
Doc and Impulse watched them go off to an unfinished part of Impulse’s keep and start laying down shulkers.
“See, you have nice neighbors. I just have Scar, who has decided that every moment not trying to ‘hot guy’ me is a moment wasted.” Doc sighed and folded his arms.
“Oh yes, they’re lovely. A few quirks, but I’m sure they’ll treat you well.” Impulse chuckled.
“Quirks?”
——
Doc found out what those quirks were rather quickly. Impulse had bade him a good night at sunset promptly, saying something about sticking to a schedule, and left Doc in his newly constructed “Doc Room”, which consisted of a red bed, walls with redstone splattered on it, and a stuffed creeper on the bed. Doc was laying there, holding the creeper and trying to sleep. It was hours earlier then he’d usually crash, but he wanted to respect Impulse’s house rules, as he was a guest.
He’d had his eyes closed for a while, but gave up finally and opened them again. He clapped his hand over his mouth to stop from screaming at the sight of Pearl standing over him, eyes wide and all-knowing.
“Pearl?” Doc whispered. “What the fuck are you doing?”
“Watching you sleep. Clearly.” Pearl said nonchalantly, like this was a normal thing to do.
“You can’t just watch people sleep!” Doc sat up, still whispering, but indignant. “It’s weird!”
“No, it’s literally not.” Pearl said, then failing to elaborate on that. “Anyway, you’re not asleep. I don’t sleep. Gem is on her fifth coffee of the night. Do you wanna come haunt Joe Hills with us? We just kind of stand behind trees and walls and recite poems incorrectly at him. It’s not for any kind of revenge or anything, we’re just assholes.”
“I- yes, I guess?” Doc got to his feet and put on his crocs. This was one way to forget about the redstone, he supposed.

Of course here you go!
All for you...
Yan!Etho x Reader
Warnings: This oneshot will contain the following; Yandere behavior, stalking, possessiveness, Slightly forced kissing. If you're uncomfortable with these things then dni.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One day while you were building, you got a DM from Xisuma the admin of the hermitcraft server. You had checked your communicater and checked Xisuma's DM, it said: Greetings U/N! I've seen your builds and might I say they're wonderful! Would you be interested in joining Hermitcraft S8?
You were really excited and immediately replied to Xisuma.
I would love to join hermitcraft!
He responded immediately
Wonderful! The IP is: [ insert hermitcraft IP or a random IP ] you can join whenever you like. :)
You replied with a thank you and said you would join it already. You got your teleporter and inserted the IP, you then pressed ' Join server '.
After server hopping for a minute you landed in the Hermitcraft server, you looked around in awe at the beautiful builds. A few seconds later you noticed a blob of green and gray coming towards you, it landed and you recognized who it was. It was Xisuma, You were literally screaming internally while keeping a straight face.
" Hello U/N! Welcome to Hermitcraft season 8! If you couldn't tell I'm Xisuma, the one who invited you here. " Xisuma had said to you while holding his hand out, you shook his hand and said
" Hello Xisuma! Thank you for inviting me to the server! It's an honor to be invited to server with talented people. " You smiled at him he told you it was no problem and said to follow him so he could give you a tour around, you accepted and followed him. He introduced you to the hermits and they were all excited to meet you.
Etho was definitely the most excited one out of all of them, he had seen your builds before and was very interested in meeting you. He was the last one introduced to you, when Etho saw you were like an angel sent from heaven. When you introduced yourself and mentioned you were FTM transgender, he was very supportive just like the other hermits. Xisuma had left you since you mentioned that you wanted to talk to Etho more, you did have a bit of a small crush on Etho before joining the server.
You talked with him for a while, you had an interesting conversation. You two realized you had a lot of common interests. You had mentioned that you should probably go getting materials to start a base, Etho offered to help but you kept on saying no need. He kept on insisting and you gave up and let him join you. You guys continued to talk to each other while gathering materials, the more Etho talked with you the more he would fall for you. You were just so infatuating and you had an amazing personality, Etho could name a lot of things that he liked about you.
Once you finished getting everything you needed you noticed it was already night and you knew you wouldn't be able to build so much when there is a lot of mobs, Etho insisted on you staying with him for the night, you decided to accept this time.
A few weeks in hermitcraft you really got to know the hermits more! you even spent more time with Etho. You loved making so many builds with Grian, you also decided to do multiple pranks on the server. Grian and you became best friends, even Scar and Mumbo became your best friends too! Mumbo would usually teach you how to build some redstone contraptions, Scar would take you on fun outings.
One day, You were just in the middle of building when all of a sudden you feel that weird feeling that you're being watched. You looked around but saw nothing so you just shook it off. What you didn't know was that there was a certain white-haired ninja watching you.
The past few days you started to get creepy love letters and gifts, they would appear anywhere near you like when you were mining you had spotted a [Favorite Color] Teddy bear holding a heart and a note, you looked at the note and it had said: " To: My Beloved U/N, From: your admirer. :)". You were really creeped out by this, the next few weeks the love letters became more creepier and it had included some pictures of you doing things. You decided to go to Etho and tell him about what was happening, you had asked him if you could stay with him and he was overjoyed when you said that.
" Hey Etho? Could I possibly stay with you for a while?" You asked him after telling him what happened
" Of course U/N!" Etho's eyes sparkled with excitement, I mean his own crush who he has been stalking asked him to stay with him! In the same house!
" Thanks! I forgot to mention that you can just call me [Name] instead." You had said to him
" O-oh alright!" Etho knew already about your name he was just surprised that you decided to tell him. He accompanied you back to your house to get your stuff, what you didn't know was that Etho was just staring at you with a lovesick expression. Once you had collected all of the necessary, you two went back to Etho's house. You guys were talking the whole way there, Etho just became even more in love with you. Your laugh and your smile, the sparkle in your eyes when you were excited he just adored those things about you a lot.
Once you two arrived to his house, you and etho placed down your stuff. Etho then asked you if you wanted some food and you accepted, you were really hungry so you decided why not. Once Etho finished making food, you two started eating. After eating for a while you drank what seemed to be normal water, you started to get light-headed. The last thing you saw was Etho staring at you with a lovesick expression and you passed out.
When you woke up, you looked around and noticed you were tied up in a chair. You did notice too the pictures of you on the wall and things you lost, you saw a bed so you thought that you were in a bedroom. you heard the door open, you looked to see Etho standing at the doorway without his mask on.
" oh you're awake love." Etho had said to you while smiling, you tried to get out of the ropes you were tied in
" Why are you keeping me like this Etho?!" You had yelled at him while struggling to get out of the ropes, Etho shook his head and started walking near you. When he was infront of you, he lifted up your chin
" I'm doing this to keep you safe [Name]" He said
" Safe from what?! The mobs?! I can defend myself Etho!" You retorted at him, he frowned at that
" You'll understand soon sweetheart" He replied while leaning towards you, you tried to back away but you couldn't. He started to kiss you and you kept on trying to push him back, you successfully pushed him slightly away with your legs. He sighed and shook his head
" You'll love me soon [Name], after all I did so much things all for you..." He then went out the door and you could hear him locking the door
You were stuck. There was no escape, you had to be with him forever..
I apologize if this is not what you wanted! I can rewrite this if it's not what you wanted anon! <3
I also apologize if my grammar is kinda bad -

Joel was a bit unsure what to expect of going back through the rift to hermitcraft. Sure most of the hermits had come over and they were all pretty friendly, but itd be different this way. Theyre all heading into the hermits world and homes. Joel also knows theres some hermits who didn't cross over to visit empires. Etho, of course, was one of them, and was someone Joel was looking forward to seeing. It had been a while since double life but they got on like a house on fire (ha.) yeah there'd been some making out and cuddling but in the end it wasn't anything more than that but they were still good friends. There was also a couple others though. Joel struggles to remember their names, theres one of Ethos old friends from mindcrack - hes vaugely heard about him from Etho himself. Theres also one of Tangos best friends? Maybe? Joels not sure. Jimmy and Tango talk A Lot and most of it is just gossip but Joel swears Jimmy has told him about the other member of Team ZITS? Joel thinks that what he said, obviously Joel already knew Tango, Impulse, and Skizz, but it was that Z guy that Joel didn't know. Joel thinks he remembers Jimmy telling him that he does weird redstone contraptions? But honestly hes not sure if that was Jimmy talking about him or about Tango.
So yeah. Joels nervous. But hey, here goes nothing, right?
So he steps through the rift.

:0 i would love to hear how you write etho!
after making that post and going to bed i've realized that it's so hard for me to describe all the thoughts that go into it so
tl;dr: i have consumed an ungodly amount of ethoslab content to the point that writing him is kind of second nature
you could also probably go thru my archive for etho text posts i've rb'd, cuz those have also influenced me a lot and i'll link a few at the end. i also sincerely recommend watching and rewatching his hc7 because that is like, everything i love about etho in 40-smth episodes.
long and kind of complicated/messy answer under the cut. i tried to go as in-depth as i could w/o being overly rambly
when you think of etho, what do you think of? you probably think "mysterious cryptid redstone guy who is scary." that is the devil talking. he is not mysterious, a cryptid, or scary at all. he is just a guy who's reputation is bigger than him.
here's some (very basic) traits i'd assign to etho before any of those:
humble
reflective*
confident
competitive
friendly
mischievous
avoidant
*reflective in the sense that he mirrors other people's energy.
originally i had a whole rant typed up explaining these personality traits, but i realize you are probably a fellow ethogirl and a lot of these need no explanation. if you want an explanation/to better understand why i chose those personality traits, i am going to once again recommend his hc7, as well as checking out anything he's done with team canada (pick a series and just start watching. if you dont know where to start, one of my beloved mutuals has a neat little guide for ppl new to etho's content that includes some staple team canada content.)
some things i apply to my etho that make sense to me that might go overlooked by the casual enjoyer:
he is so incredibly neurodivergent coded. i am not going to make any assumptions on etho's brain structure, i dont think its my place, but seriously. give your etho some silly thing to be super passionate about on the side. make him easily distracted/get off topic easily. make his storage system start out well but quickly descent into chaos as he gets too lazy to use it.
he goes with the flow! this goes along with me describing him as a reflective person. he "yes, and"'s stuff like there's no tomorrow. he takes whatever energy is thrown his way, and he chucks it right back at you. he gets dragged into shenanigans and goes "oh this might as well happen! let's see how far we can take it."
he likes to avoid problems he doesn't see as immediately his own/aren't immediately affecting him. his response to moon big was literally "i'll let the other hermits deal with it. look this low gravity makes not having elytra so much easier! lets go build a bee farm." if it doesn't affect him right this instant, or there's nothing he can do about it, he will worry about it later (and probably forget to worry about it.)
he prioritizes the "fun" factor above all else. if you know what the bamboozler is, you understand this. also, the bee farm i just mentioned. if there is a very efficient/straight-forward way to do something or a very fun way to do something, he will go with the fun way most of the time. if the only option is boring, he'll find a way to make it fun.
his reputation precedes him, but his reputation is a little inaccurate to modern times. someone who doesn't know him very well might think he's menacing or scary, but the reality is that he's just a silly little guy. don't get me wrong, there is a reason he's seen as menacing, and if he wants to be he can be, but most of the time he's just here to chill.
his humor is very roundabout. he tells a very long story to get to the punchline, or he tells something that plays into stereotypes so much it's ridiculous. here are some examples. he is also a professional "your mom" joker, like i literally cannot link enough examples his staple joke is "your mom."
most importantly, i think, is that etho doesn't take himself too seriously. i think a lot about the quote from cleo that goes like, "etho doesnt say he's a grownup, he giggles and runs away." so dont make etho too serious!
HE IS LITERALLY JUST SOME GUY. i cant stress this point enough. he should have "just some guy" energy. tiny voice he's doing the best he can. things happen to him and he is mildly bewildered. something goes wrong and he needs like, one second dedicated to panicking before he does anything about it.
just for bonus content, some of my favorite posts/clips that heavily influence the way i interpret/write etho. he is so ^-^ | he calls food poisoning an adventure | evidence that etho's a former scene kid | obviously your mother never loved you 'cause you're some sorta monster :) | "you jerk" compilation | etho teasing scar in among us

By the Fireplace
Summary: Jesse is struggling to handle the massive responsibility that comes with the formation of a new town, luckily, she meets a certain individual who just might make the perfect intern.
Hello teeny tiny MCSM fandom skjhdf, have an origin story for how Jesse and Radar meet
(Involves a few of my own personal headcanons for flavor but, ya know, MCSM is a sandbox for the fans now :,,) )
Beacontown. It had a nice ring to it, and an even more pleasant interior. It was a town built from the rubble of a great disaster, and yet those that inhabited it acted as though nothing bad had happened. They treated every day as a new beginning, as an opportunity to let their creativity shine. With the lack of rules against building privileges, no two buildings looked the same, and neither did the residents. In the early days of its formation, everything was bare and bland, but as with everything worth investing time into, it would show its true colors soon enough.
As Jesse walked through the gates of town, coming back from an evening expedition to gather supplies, she was greeted by warm smiles and genuine shouts of glee at her return. Half a year ago barely anyone even knew her name, and now they sang her praises in the streets. It was a rather jarring transition, but one that Jesse embraced with gratitude and humility. Handing off the bag that was thrown over her shoulder, Olivia approached her carrying a clipboard. 
“Jesse! How did the trip go?” She questioned, watching as one of the redstone engineers she brought with her carried the bag away to share the resources amongst the teams who needed them. 
“Not too bad, managed to gather lots of wood and cobblestone,” as she glanced over at the houses lining the streets, she noted the lack of color and decor, “I know we want to let everyone design their own homes, but with repairs still in place I think we need to focus on the necessary construction elements first.” Olivia nodded as she wrote something down, using the quill to gesture at the other end of town. 
“Good idea, they’re actually working on extending the border as we speak! There are a lot of people who want to live here, Jesse,” Olivia’s tone was optimistic, but her name was said with a hint of caution. Jesse knew her responsibilities kept growing with each passing day, that she would soon have to send others out on these resource runs so that she could stay back and monitor the repairs being made to town. 
“Yeah… I noticed,” Jesse groaned, running her fingers anxiously through her hair. “You uh, you sure you don’t want to stay here?” Olivia huffed out a half-laugh, patting Jesse’s shoulder sympathetically. 
“You know my place is in Redstonia, but I do think you need to hire some help.” Jesse knew she was right, but how would she go through a proper hiring process while people are still just trying to find a plot of land to build their homes on. It was nighttime she worried about the most, when everyone whose homes were not complete had to stay in a temporary shelter to avoid the mobs that might slip through the gates. She shuddered at the thought of someone getting hurt because her defenses had not been assembled properly. “Jesse? You still in there?” 
“Hm? Oh, yeah… sorry… Got a lot on my mind is all,” she replied, “I know you’re busy with your own leadership tasks so, thank you for stopping by to help us. You know as soon as Beacontown is up to livable standards I’ll be heading over with a team of my own to help you.” Olivia smiled softly, putting her hand over her heart. 
“It’s no problem Jess, anything for a friend,” Olivia clipped the quill to her board before looking towards the last house she had been standing near. It was more of a foundation at the moment, but her builders had already started laying down the stone needed to secure the basement. “Speaking of which, I’d better make sure my guys are on track. I’ll check back in before we settle in for the night.”
“Thanks Liv, and let them know they’re welcome to any spare resources once every base build is complete.” Jesse called as Olivia headed back to her sector. With the number of residents moving in constantly growing, not only did the negotiation of land have to be settled but the resources needed to be designated in proper quantities for the plans everyone comes up with. In order to allow everyone to build their own type of home, there needed to be guidelines for how large the space could be and how expensive it would be for extra materials required for complex builds. Her head spun just thinking about the amount of paperwork she had to complete. 
On her way back to her temporary cabin, a rather small building that had just enough in it to keep her comfortable, she briefly spoke with many citizens. A lot of them were thanking her for stepping up and insisting on creating such an accepting place to live, while others requested certain things from her which she had to write down on the fly. Sometimes she missed the simpler days, and busy nights like this were the main reason why. 
However, as she reached her destination, she noticed someone was sitting with their back up against the far wall of her cabin. Everyone else was bustling about, getting to know their new neighbors and concocting unique creations to share with one another. Whoever this was seemed to be rather forlorn, their head resting against their knees as they sat in a fetal position. Jesse tilted her head slightly, noticing this person was sniffling. She approached as quietly as possible, hoping not to alarm them. Clearing her throat first, she quietly called out, “Hey, are you okay?” The individual jolted in shock, their head whirling around as they curled further in on themselves. 
“O-Oh my gosh… I-I-I’m so sorry!” Jesse could tell he wasn’t past his teens, shivering like a leaf in an emerald green hoodie, his glasses tilted to the side as he attempted to wipe away the tears in his eyes using his sleeve. “S-So embarrassing…” he muttered. 
“There’s no need to be sorry, or embarrassed,” Jesse took another step forward, about three steps away from where the boy was hunkered down, and got down on one knee. “What’s your name?” She figured an introduction would be appropriate, “My name is-”
“Jesse…” He interrupted, immediately slapping his hand over his mouth, “I-I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have s-spoke over you…” Jesse made a pained, commiserative expression as she sat down instead, crossing one leg over the other so she was level with him. 
“It’s alright, I should have assumed you knew who I was,” Jesse nodded in his direction for him to go on. He shifted uncomfortably, looking down at the ground before he spoke.
“My name’s… Radar,” realizing he was averting eye contact, as if he had been scolded by an imaginary force, he looked back up and met her eyes. “I-It is an honor, to m-meet you, miss!” Jesse released a pssh from between pursed lips. 
“No need to call me miss, just Jesse is fine,” she observed his body language for a moment longer before deciding it was safe to move on. “Now, what are you doing over here all by yourself, Radar? Did you just move in?” Radar recoiled slightly, but managed to muster up a response sooner than before. 
“I uh… technically don’t live here,” he glanced at the front gates, “I just got here earlier today but…” he hesitated, chewing on his bottom lip. 
“Radar, if you don’t live here yet, I’m not just going to kick you out,” Jesse phrased her words gingerly, hoping not to upset him further. He was clearly shaken up about something, but she wouldn’t get any information if she scared him off. Radar threw his hood up over his head before admitting why he was hiding. 
“I-I don’t have the emeralds to p-pay for the land…” Jesse pondered for a moment, searching for the right words. 
“Did you come here with anyone else?” Radar shook his head, “Not a sibling… or a parent?” She could hear him whimper under his breath, looking up only slightly so that the top half of his face could be seen from under his hood.
“The… Th-The Witherstorm…they… they didn’t make it…” Jesse’s pupils constricted as she absorbed the horror of that statement. This poor kid, alone and afraid, now left without his parents because of the monster she destroyed. That damned command block destroyed the lives of so many people, took the loved ones from those who survived and left others with unhealable scars. Using her arms to push herself forward, she sat directly across from him, slowly reaching a hand in his direction. 
“Hey, it’s… it’s gonna be alright,” she spoke softly, allowing him to see her hand before she placed it on his upper back. He was still badly shaking, and she couldn’t quite tell if it was from the cool night air or his fear of being thrown from one of the only places within miles where he could stay under a roof. “I’m going to help you, Radar. You hear me?” Radar fully lifted his head, his big red eyes still flowing with tears as he attempted to speak. 
“Y-Y-You will…? R-Really? You won’t k-kick me out?” 
“Of course not, I have plenty of room in my cabin,” She smiled softly, rubbing his back up and down, “besides, I’m in need of a new intern. Think you could help me manage some of the construction around here?” Radar couldn’t contain his relief, throwing himself forward as Jesse braced herself. She managed to catch him as they both fell back, Jesse holding herself up with one arm and embracing him with the other. 
“I promise! I-I promise I’ll do good! I’ll do whatever it t-takes to help you a-and the rest of Beacontown!” Jesse closed her eyes for a moment, squeezing Radar before helping them both back to their feet. 
“I’m sure you will, buddy. Why don’t you head inside and sit by the fireplace, your hands are ice cold.” Jesse suggested, reaching down and fixing Radar’s glasses that were lying askew. Radar had his arms wrapped around himself as he nodded excitedly, walking towards the cabin door. 
“Thank you, Jesse…really. You’re a r-real life saver,” he added before heading inside. Jesse relieved a sigh, the memories of the battle with the Witherstorm flooding into her mind. She thought about poor Ellegard, about all those townspeople who she couldn’t save as they attempted to flee, she wondered if Radar’s parents were there… 
She thought about Reuben, about her best friend and most loving companion. The Witherstorm destroyed so much, but it didn’t destroy the light within all of those citizens who now inhabited Beacontown. It didn’t stop them from fighting back, from rebuilding their lives from the ground up. She was proud of each and every one of them, and hoped this new chapter of their lives would blossom into something special.
Even though everyone treated Jesse differently, like an idol to look up to, she had to admit she didn’t feel very different. Before becoming the Hero in Residence, no one seemed to care about the young bookworm who enjoyed playing with her pet pig and going on simple adventures. Many people didn’t even know who she really was behind the wall of popularity and fame that followed the defeat of the Witherstorm and the dismantlement of the Old Builders. They don’t know she snores when she sleeps, they don’t know she used to skip rocks on the river near her treehouse, but most of all, many people didn’t even know she was an orphan herself.

YHS: A Serialization [] 5. Respite- or Something Like That
⚠️Warning! This episode contains discussions of murder, suicide, and other crimes. These topics are not shown or described in detail.⚠️
Tumblr media
┍━━━━━»•» 💛 «•«━┑
September 4th, 2015.
Slow, calm afternoons are under appreciated, honestly. This whole week, despite it being the first week back at Yamada High, has been relatively quaint. For me, at least.
I feel as though most people my age rush through life, thinking by the time they’re thirty that their freedom is gone and nothing will be exciting.
That’s not true whatsoever, as every life stage is vital for enjoying life. Fun does not necessitate decadent parties or wild love lives, to me it means the triumph of acing a difficult test, the satisfaction of saving money cooking good food from the comfort of my own home.
And to me, the meaning of life is the thrill of solving mysteries.
The locals of Las Allayes County speak of a rumor that on every October 31st, a pair of lovers disappear. And not because of the high crime rates during Halloween. Last year, an elderly couple was found dead in their homes in San Atlanta, which is particularly odd as San Atlanta is a fairly wealthy neighborhood. It was officially declared a double-suicide, but I have my doubts.
In this city of unpredictability, where the corrupt seeps through the veneer of austerity, things are never what they appear. And as always, the police ignore this and take the easy way out instead of thoroughly investigating the crime scene.
But it is what it is. It’s Friday, school’s over. I should relax. All my current assignments are done, I have some banh mi pate to eat, I have Mystreet episodes to catch up on. It’s not like I have anything to attend.

💙: “CRAAAAAPPPPPPP!!! THE METRO SHUT DOWN!!”
Tumblr media
*BAM!*
The door slams open.
💙: “GOLD! Sorry!”
💛: “What happened?? Where were you, anyway?”
💙: “SoIwasatthemetro-“
💛: “Why?”
💙: “-soIcouldgotothisguy’sgarageconcert-“
💛: “WHY?”
💙: “-becauseIhavenothingelsetodo-“
💛: “You could work on your introductory essay-“
💙: “But that’s boring! Anyways so the Redstone Link is down because someone got stabbed-“
💛: “Why would they shut a whole line down over a stabbing?”
💙: “Because it’s connected to some weird gang that everyone’s scared about-“
💛: “GANG?! Is it- wait. Tell me everything you know.”
💙: “Ooohhh! Okay, I-uh… the cop blocking off our station said some guy in a hoodie stabbed another young dude at the Sky Station.”
💛: “Seems fairly standard so far.”
💙: “But apparently the hoodie guy had some tattoo that matched a local gang- Y’know, that cop was really talkative.”
💛: “For once.”
💙: “Yeah, and that gang has been rising in prominence.”
💛: “I’m surprised you know that word.”
💙: “Yeah! Wait- hey!”
💛: “So this gang… hmm. What did you want me for, anyways?”
💙: “Can you drive me to Industry City?”
💛: “…I don’t have a car.”
💙: “Well, can’t you, like, call a taxi?”
💛: “We’re not going to Traum County, Kat. What the hell kind of a concert is this guy hosting?!”
💙: “Hey! It’s in Miller Avenue! It’s not that scary there-“
💛: “So instead of getting shot at night you’ll just get stabbed? Face it, you’re not going.”
💙: “OH MY GOD! YOU REALLY ARE A PROBATION COP!”
💛: “Don’t you dare call me a cop.”
💙: “Oh, how ironic! Says the one that gets into everybody’s business! Since you like snooping so much, snoop THIS!”
Tumblr media
💛: “YOU FOUND IT?!?”
💙: “I knew it! This wasn’t Liv’s-“
💛: “No- There was this rumor going around that The Erinyes lost a pendant containing info on rival gangs!”
💙: “…Who?”
💛: “The gang you were talking about earlier? Yeah. They’re probably the perpetrator behind the stabbing.”
💙: “Oh… that explains why Liv told me to keep it..”
💛: “Just give it to me. The police might accuse us of being accomplices, or worse, lose it.”
💙: “Sure… hey wait! Since I gave you the pendant-“
💛: “UGHHHH, FINE. I’ll give you money for a taxi. You can go, on one condition…”
💙: “Yeah yeah, don’t drink anything anyone gives me-“
💛: “Besides that, tell me everything you see and hear. And charge your phone.”
💙: “Ok! Thank you, Kimmy-“
💛: “And double check the taxi’s license plate. And just call me Kim.”
💙: “…Aight!”

I’m… not sure how to feel, honestly. Like, obviously I’m exicted for the garage concert and excited to meet more people that aren’t my… pseudo-sister, but at the same time something about how Kim was freaking out about the… Erin-yes?? And the stabbing make me kinda worried about how I’ll integrate into Yamada High.
But it’s okay. I know my street smarts. I can even show off my solo-cup juggling skills to impress people!
Everything will be okay.
…Right?

SO MUCH MAGIC!! i love it its so cool i wish i had access to mumbo's library just so i could learn more AHHHHHHH
grian using glyphs to fight is gonna be so cool!! there was a point in time where i was super obsessed with the moral instruments book series by cassandra clare (if you know it) and it made me fall in LOVE with the concept of magical symbols, so this is extremely exciting EEEEEEEE
also SCAR'S MAGIC! we got an explanation of what he used to kill those hunters in the last one that's so COOL
“Taurtis could still be alive.”
I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW IT I KNEW IT my boy's coming back I JUST KNOW IT EEEEEEE
oh god unless he turned evil or something. or scott finds him and uses him somehow. what if grian has to kill him. oh goodness.
NAHHHHHH IM SURE EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE FINE:D
“You chose to do something kind with it,” he says, “twice, if you count just now. You guys really focus too much on the black and white.”
THIS!!!! grian i love you so much omg HES SO RIGHT!! kinda.. i mean.... scar's kinda stabbing him and mumbo in the back..... but he still has a point!!! people tend to compartmentalize things into bad and good way too easily, but nothing's ever that simple! the boys need to give themselves some credit
“Not that I’d complain, Mumbo’s a lovely companion to eat with.” He smiles charmingly at the vampire, who seems to flush under Scar’s sudden gaze.
theyre so cute i love them
(None of them knew that this would be the last happy moment they would have for a long while.)
WHAT DO YOU MEAN???? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?????? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? NUH UH!! NUH UH!!!!! THIS IS THE END OF THE STORY THEY LIVED HAPPY EVER AFTER THE END!!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN😭😭😭😭😭😭
“Scar speaking! How can I help you, Scott?” 
you can help by HANGING UP THE PHONE AND PICKING UP TUBBO AND GRIAN AND MUMBO AND PEARL AND BOOKING IT TO THE NEAREST REDSTONE BACKWARDS-FLYING JET TO FUCKALL, ANTARCTICA SO SCOTT CANT FIND YOU
im so scared. it feels like something big's coming and it'll be terrible for our boys.
EHEHEHEHE TYYYYY :D
I’m excited about grian using glyphs and getting his hands on a Real form of magic that he can use and MMMMMM. I do know of that series though! I very much enjoy the concept of magic symbols
and SCAR’S MAGIC AUGHHHH. I’ve been holding onto that for months. I’m really excited to have finally written it out in a fic !!!! I love the reaper’s eye concept soso much, and it’s a perfect way to say that taurtis is still alive :3c
I really love grian being almost like. “the voice of reason” when scar and mumbo lean too much into monster vs human. because it’s more nuanced than that. people are more complex than that
as for everything else…. hehehehehe :)
I’m sure it’ll all be fine

I've recently started consuming Cubscar content, so here's an idea that I came up with.
This is set in like a Victorian era time period (I hope it's the right one) where redstone is a new, sensational discovery.
Scar is a very wealthy and successful business man and nobody knows much about him,not even among the rich or the dozens of business competitors.This man is a wealthy mystery.But everyone does know one thing about Scar Goodtimes:
He doesn't crack.
Scar is constantly upholding an image of a sharp smile with welcoming eyes,who always says what you want to hear.You never see him get angry,at best,he'll look a little defeated when someone turns his ideas down,but even then he's still smiling.
But then there's news of a man gaining profits and fame at a frightenly rapid pace.His name is Cub,a redstone genius in a world where people knew little to nothing about redstone.He's known for pumping out inventions every few weeks and selling his products even faster.He very quickly is accepted into the upper class and their inner circles,which includes Scar.
At first,Scar doesn't give this Cub guy a care in the world,and is certainly not threatened by him from a business standpoint.But then they both end up going to an event at the same time,and Scar can feel eyes burning into him the entire time. Eventually,they accidentally bump into one another and introduce themselves.
But then Scar is left speechless as Cub brings his hand up to his lips,kisses it,and says "Scar Goodtimes,it's a pleasure to meet you.I hope you're as dazzling as that silver tongue of yours."
And everyone stops and stares as Scar's face burns.
YES GOOD. Cubscar is amazing
*slams my fists down* THIS IS SO SO SO GOOD. This feels like a Victorian Era steam punk vibe except it's Redstone- god Scar just gets so smitten with Cub. That smile drops into nervous line, his face going red- his brain stopped working as he reboots staring at this man, Cub, chuckles and drops his hand.
Quickly he composes himself to the sounds of whispers and his grin is back ten fold, welcoming Cub to their high society and commenting about how wonderful his inventions are. Perhaps they can meet together at a later date and discuss business?
Cub grins back and gladly agrees.
