sunrise siblings
techno and niki grew up together in the nether, where their sounder is almost fully consumed by the rot. they run away with a few remaining kids. techno is the oldest, so he usually goes hunting while the others stay safe. he feels as though it's his responsibility to protect everyone since he was meant to become a brute. instincts and stuff. he's out hunting one day, then that day becomes two, then three, then forever and niki thinks she's lost her brother. years pass. most of the sounder has left or died by now, usually to the rot or ghast attacks. niki, the most experienced trader of them all, decides that if her brother, her best friend, is still alive, that he must be through the gate. he would've come back otherwise, right?
meanwhile techno is ruling an overworld empire, his partner by his side. and he has not forgotten about his sister, and he feels so, so guilty for leaving, but he was young. he wasn't intending to get captured. he fought in the arena for years, his skin now marred by endless strikes of the whip and the blade. phil saved him, and he is indebted, and he is grateful, and he loves his friend, the one who rescued him before he lost all semblance of sanity to the arena. the arena, which was never kind. the voices of his sounder, once the blood god's favorite, now in ruins, haunt his mind. and they call for blood, so he chases it.
niki steps through the portal, light brighter than that of the forests, or the ghasts, or anything she's ever seen before. the roof- is it a roof?- is a foreign color, so is the ground. there is no lava, but something different, flowing lakes and falls and rivers of some transparent substance. there are, not mushrooms but similar, things that shine like gold sprouting across the soft floor. she takes a few, wary at first, hoping that her brother will still love her, still accept her gifts and trinkets like he did long ago.
she does not find techno, not for a long time. but as she fears the rot setting in, she encounters a caravan who she has met once before, and they take her in, nursing her back to health. she travels with them for a while, though she never steps back into the nether. and when she stumbles upon the roots of a young rebellion, well, she finds some hidden part of her, the part that takes after her brother, calling out for blood and for glory.
years later, if she finds technoblade, she will pretend she does not know who he is, and when she is alone, she will cry. and if he almost dies one day, and if she reveals her identity then, and if they embrace for what seems like eternity, and if they slowly rebuild a long broken bond, that is not for us to know.

I sometimes forget about all the interesting things Niki just said. What do you mean you just walked into the woods and ended up here what do you mean the nights in Lmanberg are longer what do you meann
RIGHT??????? i love thinking about the dsmp as a deeply Weird server, whether that's through admin intentional maliciousness or sheer neglect. and the stuff about puffy ending up there with no memories of her past as well......it makes me so thoughtful

Been Watching Weird Fruit Explorer(?)... and I just...
W-Who let Bored Danny have BooTube?
Sorry, YOU-Tube. He has TWO Apps now. BooTube is bigger. Way more random, yet... somehow more niche? Meh. It's what happens when you get billions of billions of people who all have their own Obsessions to rant over, on a site.
Ember's channel is pretty lit, tho, ngl.
He stopped using YOU-Tube almost overnight. Too many ads, weird algorithmic pushiness. No thanks. It was too small and too "trying to take my money". You know?
Buuuuut? See.... TUCKER is the Tech guy.
Coding and that sort of stuff. HE does hands on work. You want a toaster? He can MAKE you a toaster! With LAZERS! Runs off The Goo! But a program? Eeeeeeeh? Hit it with hammer maybe? Monkey make fire? Hit with stick? Blergh.
Yeah, he can SORTA push through.
But he suuuucks.
And like... he had a headache, okay? His project had just, quiet literally, exploded in his face. So when he looked at his phone? All the apps were blobs. He clicked the one that LOOKED kinda right. Shoved his arm in his phone and brute forced a channel set up.
He figured he could ramble about Space!
It's not like he cared is anyone LISTENS or not! It's a "for him" thing, you know? Like a diary. But more... putting on a ☆~show~☆?
So he rambles from the floor of his Lair's Lab, crashs and wails in the distance, green sky occasionally visible as he lazily floats by windows. Dropping... juuuust past human knowledge understanding of Space. Talking like he's STUDYING somewhere. Referencing PAPERS no human will ever be able to find.
But a few they WILL.
Some of which, are currently? Only half written.
But then? Oh YEAH... he should eat! You know... Sam keeps bringing him fruits and veggies and stuff from her internship at that Botanical Lair. Stuff never seen before of Earth. Or hasn't been seen in centuries.
Again, like, a FEW that? Randomly? Have???
He picks up something sharply purple, bright orange insides. Crisp crunch. He makes a face. And starts to ramble about it, distracted from Space. "Weirdly mushroom-y" he notes. "Kinda bubblegum sweet? But like... CHEAP bubblegum. Like it hits you all at once and is kinda chemically. But it disappears real fast? Huh. Spicy too..."
It's the first video on the Playlist. One of hundreds. Two of the green Lanterns RECONIZE that fruit ad HIGHLY toxic to humans, can't recognize what planet they're seeing. Or how this alien teen got himself on YouTube.
He seems... unaware of how incredibly famous he's become.
But his strange techno Pharoah friend has not. HE is both perfectly aware and apparently amused. Has taken to feeding him rare and hazardous flora and fauna, to see if it tastes good.
....there have been an alarming number of plants from dead planets.
And the comments the kid makes? Alarming as hell.
Sam's just pleased everybody's getting their greens. Danny's glad him n tuck get to hang and do "try weird foods and fuck around, bro time". They've made lazers! Talked about stuff! Debated why Martian Manhunter is THE superior Justice League member.
Danny understands. Wonder Woman is a BAMF. But he's biased, Tucker. He doesn't CARE if she has a sword and flowy, impressive locks! Shape-shifting telepath! From MARS!!! *imaginary mic drop*
And Tucker? Is conquering the YouTube scene with this charming, weird, relatable young alien. Who rambles about Space, debates nerd stuff, eats weird plants and describes them, and makes sci-fi technology! Theme? WHAT THEME? Phantom is a weird channel, man. You never know what you'll find!
And no one can get rid of it.
Believe them, governments have TRIED. Censorship? Not possible. Not without removing the whole SITE.

What abt human techno going into the nether just as normal, without any golden armor, and then getting hunted out by piglins? As a piglin, other piglins wouldn't care about him, but now they do :3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You’re right - usually he doesn’t have to worry as much going into the Nether. He kind of forgot that was a privilege he had as a giant Piglin hybrid. Well let’s just say the locals are… a little bigger than Techno remembers.
(Since Techno’s a hybrid both regular Piglins and Brutes are a bit bigger than him - but never like this)

so we can all agree that the newest 2WEI song (take the crown) is the trailer song for an Antarctic Empires Emerald Duo pg14 movie where Techno is a gladiator who earned his freedom and has vowed to destroy the government that enslaved him and Philza is an old demigod banished to a solitary plane of existence for five decades after attempting to run a coup against the ruling class.
They meet on a battlefield, Techno having joined up as brute muscle and Phil having used some minor illusions to pass as a quirky avian and join the bombardment team. Combining some similar plot beats as Oceans 11 and Atlantis: The Lost Empire, they gather a specialized team of insurrectionists, anarchists, battle mages, and warriors to take down the imperium from the inside, eventually planning on restoring the nation to the democracy it was in Phil’s earliest memories. But will they manage it, or will their bloody pasts and violent present seat Technoblade on the throne as the Antarctic Emperor, with Philza as his right hand, the Angel of Death? (Spoiler, the second option. It’s the most controversial film finale decision of the decade.)
The movie is filmed in a style somewhere between Dune 1, the Prince of Egypt, and Topgun. (denis villeneuve is too busy and too expensive, but it’s clear they’re taking inspiration. Bold colors and lighting and a lot of shots of the sky, wildlife, architecture, or of characters’ hands.) It’s scored by an up and coming indie musician, working under the consultation of Ludwig Gorannson in his spare time as a pet project, though his association with the film doesn’t really come out until it Smashes the expected theatre income in the first two days of release and critics start Raving about it. Techno’s actor is nominated for an Oscar for one of the most compelling intricate portrayals of ptsd and platonic devotion in modern cinema, but doesn’t actually get the Oscar.
Tumblr is flooded with gif sets of Techno in the Obligatory No Armor After Gladiator Fight Scene and the Late Night Vibing With Phil In A Loose Poet Shirt scene (firelit, lots of closeups of his eyes, the film is obviously attempting to express his complex emotional state and his deep relationship with Phil, and is failing miserably at doing Anything but making him hot. The internet is ✨gay✨ about it, because when is the internet not?) Also most of the simps are calling Phil a dilf.
Fit MC is the fan-favorite side character, his four scenes and nine lines of dialogue are clipped and edited and giffed and memed into the dirt. (His armor and prosthetic, the makeup and costuming department say, were the hardest thing to do in the entire film, which is why he isn’t in too many shots.) Though, a close second is Niki, who is played by a woman built like a brick house who doesn’t wear sleeves, so…. Yeah. We all know what the response is there. The effects, including Phil’s wings, are almost entirely practical and the only real places it gets iffy is Steve, the giant war polar bear that’s pretty clearly clipping through a few snowbanks here and there. Nobody can agree on which characters are morally reprehensible.
Within a few years, very few people outside a dedicated fan base have seen it and a few assume it’s made up like Goncharov. It’s also, for some ungodly reason, been labeled a Christmas film. (most of the plot happens in the ice and snow, hence ‘Antarctic Empire.’) I guess nothing says ‘Christmas spirit’ quite like ‘unmitigated violence, platonic yearning, and overthrowing oppressors.’

seeing red
a very short (1,036 words) c!rivals duo fic based on the @sixteenth-day-event's prompt 'protective violence'.
The nether was a dangerous place.
Where in the overworld daytime gave some reprieve from the monsters, the nether didn’t have the same grace period and that meant even experienced players had to be careful. It meant that Techno always made sure he had a couple potions, healing and speed, and a spare gold helmet on him, just in case something happened, because something always happened.
The current something was the fact he had lost sight of his travelling companion.
Dream could take care of himself, sure, but Techno didn’t like it. He didn’t like that he had gotten so distracted that he had either lagged behind or left Dream behind. A hint of panic was rising in his chest, the drone of the voices in his head growing a tiny bit louder.
Yelling out wasn’t the best idea. They couldn’t have gone too far from the haphazardly constructed nether highway and Techno didn’t want to risk getting caught out here, without an ally. Not after what had happened, the execution that had only failed because the totem had reversed his death.
Techno frowned, took a deep sniff of the air, looked at the slightly spongy netherrack, and picked a direction to head in.
The bastion was a surprise.
The small gap, hidden by a blackstone half-slab, was an even bigger surprise. Dream cursed as he fell through it, hitting his arm, hard, on the way down. His ankle had twisted awkwardly when he hit the ground and his other leg had folded under him, pain radiating from his knee. The injuries weren’t much of a concern – he had plenty of healing potions and supplies on him – but what was a concern were the piglins that had been alerted to his presence by the fall and the fact the ill-fitting gold helmet had fallen off and rolled away, still spinning to a stop.
“Fuck—Ah, shit!”
Dream barely got his shield up in time to block the arrow, barely managed to lift his axe to parry a blow from a brute that had charged him.
He was still on the ground.
He was still on the ground the brute was huge compared to him and if Dream could just get one a healing potion out, get to his feet, then he would be fine—
But another brute had approached from the side and using his shield to defend himself left him open to the piglin’s crossbow attack.
I’m dead, thought Dream as the arrow sunk into his side, finding the gap in his armor by sheer luck.
Gritting his teeth, he jerked the arrow out and rolled to the left. There was a drop, shorter than the one he had fallen down in the first place, and it hurt when he landed on the blackstone but it would give him a moment.
Out of nowhere, an irrational thought crossed his mind: if I kill piglins, is Techno going to be pissed at me?
Anything he did here would be self-defence and Techno was the sort who would understand that but for some reason Dream couldn’t shake the thought. It was irrational and it made him slow and he barely got half of the healing potion downed before he ran out of time.
The glass bottle smashed to floor and Dream raised his axe, back to the wall, as the piglin brutes came at him.
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Techno saw the bastion and knew something was wrong even before he heard the sound of fighting. A bastion could be one of the more dangerous places; the crumbling blackstone created a maze that was hard to navigate and almost all of the inhabitants wouldn’t be happy to see a stranger. He drew his sword as he hurried forward and hopped up on one of the walls, looking down into the bastion.
He found what he was looking for immediately. He smelled the blood in the a second later.
A swarm of brutes had backed Dream into a corner.
If he lowered his defense a little, just enough to try to pearl out or take a potion, he would have been overwhelmed. He couldn’t even attempt to block the arrows being sent his direction from a piglin on an upper level.
The voices were like his heart pounding wildly in his ears. Techno saw the man who had saved his life and Carl’s life struggling, fighting for his own life, and saw red.
Without thinking, Techno downed a speed potion and crossed the bastion’s wall, hopping across the gaps, until he was on the level above Dream. He bodychecked the piglin, kicking their crossbow off the platform and into the lava below. Then he jumped down, sword over his head.
The first blow hit one of the brutes across the chest and they stumbled back with a startled noise. Techno might have felt bad but Dream was bleeding, his mask had come loose, and even under the armor it was clear his chest was rising and falling rapidly. Techno had never seen him like this and the only clear emotion he felt in this moment was worry and anger.
Bringing his sword up, he caught the next brute in their shoulder, rendering their arm and axe useless. There was a squeal of fear that Techno met with a roar of anger and it took three more swings of his sword before the remaining brutes turned and fled in fear.
Techno turned to Dream.
“You alright, man?”
Dream nodded.
“I’m—I’m fine,” he lied, loosing his balance and pitching sideways the moment he spoke.
Techno caught him, steadied him, and then carefully pulled his mask back into place.
“Yeah, you’re definitely fine,” said Techno with a crooked grin. His heart was still pounding but the voices had quieted. He pulled out his spare gold helmet and placed it on Dream’s head. It was big; it fell forward and covered part of Dream’s mask. Techno resisted the urge to laugh, resisted the odd urge to hug Dream, and instead took him by the hand to guide him, to keep him from stumbling. “C’mon, let’s get the heck out of here.”
“Yeah…” A beat and then, leaning into Techno’s shoulder, Dream said, “Thanks.”
“Anytime, Dream.”

If techno and Tommy were in different places. How did tommy managed at first?? I imagine techno.coming back to pick him and protect him, specially if they are family, but how did that reunion go at first
Tommy was better off than most tbh, the baseball field was fairly empty as it was only practice and not an actual game. When the announcement rang over the speakers to evacuate immediately, for parents to take their children home, most children, while nervous, went compliantly with the coach back to the school. Tommy had slipped away and stayed behind. One rule techno had given him was when lost, stay in the last place Techno knew he had been, and techno would find him there. So he stayed behind in the field, and when the first few zombies started shambling towards him, Techno had beaten them first, scooping his little brother up with an arm and a broken violin in another. He had abandoned the shattered violin on the floor and picked up one of the bigger bats, and brute forced his way through the few that came at them, Tommy's arms wrapped around his neck

Actually. Full post on this topic.
Pandoras vault is a work of art, not just narratively but mechanically.
It’s a fucking tragedy that so few people positioned to appreciate how complex and amazing pandoras vault is got to see it.
Like. Tubbo was salivating for a non canon tour for a reason. Techno’s awe and compliments when he entered the prison speaks volumes.
Alarms to detect block breaking? Layers of explosion protected obsidian? Daily changed out keycards? From a system that was completely inaccessible and sealed? Ender pearl chambers for fast recall? A network of nether portals to prevent someone from linking a portal to inside of the prision from the nether? The visitation system?
That thing is a marvel. Not only is it constructed in survival it’s constructed to be truly survival functional on a server where people will brute force and just break in.
And as fans and server mates found possible ways in, Sam patched it, was there to defend it, multiple times, in ways that suited the narrative.
Then he found weaknesses to allow for a extraordinarily epic, fully in camera, in survival break in. Then patched them. Then did it again.
And to hear Sam talk about it there’s more to the mechanisms than we ever saw.

Oo what about cHannah?
I'm just getting increasingly enraptured with her. Summaries for lore are helpful but going back and rifling through old vods gives me such deeper impressions of their characters. She talked about how she's aware of how women and femininity are usually ignored and underestimated and how she actively plays up femininity in her builds and general vibe so she can catch them off guard and kill them more easily, and also how her evil lair thing under her base isn't representative of her either and is exaggerated partially as an intimidation tactic. It's interesting to me how these things aren't necessarily 'acts' but that she leans into certain aspects of her personality while masking others depending on the situation. It's also more apparent in more subtle things like her level of politeness, how much she insults people, whether or not she makes an effort not to swear, etc. I think it's fun that she is a person who will insult and argue with you more if she likes/trusts you and I think it's an interesting and subtle level of guardedness for her character.
I also think it's interesting how much she enjoys fighting. Some characters like the feeling of violence or control or vengeance but she enjoys the act of fighting and it like. is very neat to think abt seriously. When she's running around on the first day she thinks its stupid that she's fighting zombies, not because they're irritating but because she thinks they're below her to fight. She lists her ability to kill other people with pride and a main core fact about her. The context to her joining the server is her losing in a fight to Dream but beating Punz. She is actively excited to fight Sapnap when Puffy tells her about him. She gets into repeated rematch fights with Punz outside his house. I think the only other character I've seen on the SMP that actually likes fighting as much as her is maybe Techno.
I also am fascinated by what Hannah's afraid of and what she's not afraid of. She's terrified of cave spiders because they've killed her in her previous hardcore worlds. When she and puffy get trapped in a void maze trap and Puffy's freaking out she just silently brute forces her way to an exit and seems undisturbed, but she's very scared when she thinks the two of them are lost and can't get back to the main SMP. She's initially freaked out by the Egg vines and says that they look 'poisonous' but after Puffy explains it to her she is totally frightened by it. She believes that it's evil and that it can mind control people and she's cautious but not. afraid in the same way other characters are.
One last thing I looooooove how much she carries over from her old experiences. As said before she's scared of cave spiders due to a hardcore series but also carries a bunch of her stuff on her instead of storing it and makes a ton of crafting tables because of it. She calls the Central SMP 'Mid' out of habit from Minecraft Hunger Games. Her entire fighting thing and most of her pre-smp knowledge of other characters comes from bedwars and other fighting minigames. I just like when people do that
