How do you feel about the Mumbo x Fundy ship?

Hmmm let me analyze;

c!Fundy (idk if you're talking about just Fundy's general cubito or his specific dsmp c!character so im using both) is coo-coo bananas about coding and mods and just is as a person, and his dsmp cubito is so wet cat pathetic but also in a way that makes sense with how tragic he and his life is

c!Mumbo is ALSO coo-coo bananas but about Redstone but in a way that makes him seem normal but he's not, specially about his friends and Grian. He's a fun but anxious character, which is important to remember when shipping him cuz it def effects dynamics

I think they could be crazy together tho Mumbo's not at all normal relationship with Grian might get in the way of Fundy's obvious and rampant abandonment and jealously issues, and I think some of Fundy's in generalness could either be really bad or really good for Mumbo's anxiety.

I don't think they have ever interacted tho obvi fandom is well-used to that lol. I think they'd likely crash and burn or have one of the best and most stable relationships with no in-between, tho either way I don't see Fundy as someone who lives on Hermitcraft so they would be a relationship that has some if not a lot time in-between meeting each other and tbh I think that would actually work well for their characters if they work at being okay because they both love what they do and their lives too much to uproot it too much.

Realistically would only work even temporarily if this was either just in general c!Cubito Fundy or wayyy post dsmp!Fundy cuz man that fox man needs therapy and thats really not fair to put on Mumbo in a time when he hasn't learned to cope and move on from that.

All in all;

Absolutely insane, I love it, 10/10, prob woulnt ever ship it myself but id never turn my nose up at it if it was in a fic likly as long as it wasnt in the main fic.

Sometimes being a Gritho shipping fan or even just a Grian and Etho fan, is just passsivly searching for contant, wishing for more, enjoying when they interact

And sometimes its being utterly unhinged and going "I could tottaly make an entire youtube playlist full of every Grian and Etho interaction ever" to fuel my insanity

Will I do it? Probs not but who knows

Will I think about it often? Yes

"shipping and blorbofication are not inherently at odds with understanding a story's deep themes" and "some people can't grasp the themes of a story because they never learned how to engage with stories outside of the lens of shipping and blorbofication" are two statements that can coexist

Doc's about four beers in by now. It's just enough to loosen his lips, especially with Etho eating most of the pretzels so Doc can't eat them. Compared to almost any other hermit under these circumstances, Doc seems barely tipsy at most, but, well, it's not like Beef needs him drunk to vent his latest frustrations at the world, he just needs him tipsy enough not to notice he's talking.

"--and I just don't understand why people are so surprised, man. You--you all have teased me too much to be surprised!" Doc is saying. "Ren laughed at me. Laughed!"

He also, for the record, seems to need to complain about... apparently his husband? Which is new. Beef had been surprised. He's not going to say so, yet, because this is Doc's very belated NHO bachelor party--can they call it that when it's more "sitting around a TV drinking, eating snacks, and not doing anything because they're all too old to be partying", and when Doc is very clearly not a bachelor?--and that would be rude.

"That dog," Bdubs says loyally. "I can kill him for you. I'm the judge so I wouldn't get arrested and I'd make sure you get all his money as a widow."

"No, you can't kill him, man, I still need him for tax benefits!"

"What taxes?" Etho asks, sounding vaguely panicked.

Everyone stops to consider this.

"Beneficial ones," Doc finally says.

"I don't think that's what--I think you're misunderstanding your English again," Beef says.

"No, I'm always right," Doc says.

They sit in companionable silence for a few moments. Someone shouts on TV. The show is in Swedish. Beef has no idea what's happening. He's honestly just kind of waiting for someone else to notice.

"It's just. I don't get it, man! Why are you all acting so surprised I called Ren my husband? You! You all know me!" Doc says, somewhere between accusing and despairing, and hm, maybe these beers were higher alcohol content than normal, if he's already on despairing? "Ren and I have been--after season eight, making it official, it is only a natural thing, yes? But we had--he's asked to have my puppies. You've heard him say our babies would be beautiful."

"That dog," Bdubs says loyally again, this time in a much more suggestive tone.

"More than once," mutters Etho.

"It's not--I mean, we all knew you and Ren were... how do I put this?" Beef says. "It's not surprising that you two are. Er. Help me out here."

"Boning," Etho says.

"EXCUSE YOU?" Bdubs says, scandalized.

"Yeah. Boning," Beef says. "Doing the horizontal tango. Probably some vertical ones too. I mean, you're definitely into some things--"

"Fighting dragons," Etho dryly adds.

"THAT WAS STILL GROUNDS FOR DIVORCE," Bdubs shouts, apparently over being scandalized and moving straight to offense.

"Two seasons later? Man, you just wanted to wring as much alimony out of me as possible," Doc says immediately.

"And? I'm a judge now, I know these things."

"My point," Beef says, before they can start arguing again, or before Etho can point out that they hadn't ever really been married to get divorced in the first place. "My point. We, uh, all knew you two had a thing. It's just, uh, marriage is... different! It's different, and--"

"You didn't INVITE ME TO THE WEDDING!" Etho says, finally unable to hold it in. "Whyyyyyyyyy? Doc, I thought we were friends! I thought we were friends, Doc! I wanted to go to the wedding!"

"It, it was a little thing," Doc says. "A common law marriage as much as--"

"Hey, wait, why didn't I officiate it, huh?" Bdubs says.

"That's not fair, you can't be mad at me for not inviting you to the wedding, the moon had just exploded!" Doc says.

"It had?" Etho says.

"Yeah, well, I exploded too and I still would have shown up," Bdubs says.

"I don't remember an explosion?" Beef says.

"Wait, the moon did something?" Etho says.

"Focus," Beef says. "Look. Doc. Also, love you man, but I always figured that if anyone was going to propose, it was going to be Ren."

Doc scoffs. "Clearly you don't know my husband, then."

Everyone waits for him to elaborate. Ren, after all, is the one known for dramatic emotional appeals. While Doc is equally dramatic--that's why Beef is throwing a bachelor party for the great fit as opposed to off showing him that Big Salmon can still show someone how to sleep with fishes--he's not exactly great at emotions. Surely, he will elaborate on why Ren would never be the one to propose between the two of them.

He doesn't.

"Anyway, I think it's been obvious for, for years, and you all are morons, and--why is the TV in Swedish?"

"THANK YOU!" Bdubs says. "I thought it would be rude to point out."

"Oh, I like it, though," Etho says as Doc changes the channel to a home improvement show. Yeah, sure. Fits the vibes of this bachelor party as much as anything else. Beef grabs another beer. He pauses.

"Wait, you said a common law marriage. That means you haven't actually had a wedding yet, right?"

"Not really," Doc says.

Beef considers being reasonable, and then he lets it go.

"Dibs on planning it," he says.

"WHAT?" Bdubs says, rounding on Beef.

"I--hey, I didn't agree to this!" Doc says, as Beef begins negotiations with Bdubs. Etho laughs, louder than he normally does, and throws an arm around Doc.

"Let it happen, man. Let it happen."

It's a good party, and a good night.

HELLO its time for dancin, and just for fun I'm gonna college au-ificate this one :>

30. I Wanna Dance With Somebody cover by Fall Out Boy

Grian cackled as he nearly tripped over his own feet in the living room, only Jimmy's panicked hands keeping him upright. The music blasted through their house, shitty bluetooth speakers blaring dance party music as loudly as they could rig them to.

Joel was bent nearly in half wheezing at the two of them as the rest of their friends mingled and danced in the space they'd hastily cleared. The end of the semester party was upon them, but between terrorizing Jimmy into dancing with him and pestering his friends, Grian could see that there were still some people not quite in the party spirit.

With mischief in his eyes, Grian broke away from Jimmy and snuck over to the side of the room just as one song ended. Heavy guitar thrummed through the room as he tapped Etho on the shoulder where he was leaning halfway through the doorway. He startled slightly, sighing when he saw Grian.

Etho made a noise as if to speak, but Grian put his finger over Ethos mask before he could. "I know you're going to sneak out of here as soon as you possibly can, but you're not leaving before you give me a dance," he said, pitching his voice just loud enough to be heard over the music.

Grian was sure it wouldn't work, readying himself for yet another failed attempt at getting just a little bit closer to the man. What he was not ready for was a hand slipping around his own and tugging him into the hall outside. Etho curled his hand around Grian's waist, and the smaller man looked up at him with cheeks flushed from more than just the several drinks he'd already downed.

"I suppose I can do one dance," Etho said, and Grian could hear the smirk in his voice.

Grian grinned back. Success.
