Hearing Joel die in Grian's video, the panicked "Its-- Grian, it's not going wel--!"

Those last words. The cut-off. The panic. Grian freezing. The loud silence after. I screamed. What if that was my last straw.....

Canary down!!

i vote they reset bad boy manor every session and we see how quickly it burns down every time

Tbf i think Etho's audio issue was that he couldn't record his voice properly because his Kleenex mic stand fell appart cuz it got too wet from all the tears

Let's unpack this for a second:

Jimmy falls off the bridge

Grian screams his name as he falls

Lightning explodes in the sky

The server is silent, everyone confused about what just happened

The silence is broken by Joel basically collapsing to his knees like a wife who just lost her husband at sea, wailing in the chat

Joel proceeds to go insane. Wolf pack tendancies and all that

when grian gifted etho the diamond sword, jokingly tapping the blade against etho’s shoulders when he knelt at grian’s feet, he thought nothing would come out of it. that it would become a forgotten joke between friends as their world descended into bloodshed and chaos. weeks later, hiding behind a pillar on bread bridge as etho approached him, grian thought his life would end right there. low on health and supplies, there was nothing he could do unless he got a lucky shot. but then: do you wanna enact the sword?

As I was busy drawing other things during Limited Life, I never got to put in my piece for how to classify Martyn within the “sun, moon, and stars” victor analogy. 

My suggestion is that keeping an analogy *clearly* meant for a group of three and trying to add a fourth thing that fits just as well was never going to work, and so I decided to do something else.

So here is my submission: I made them a time cycle, representing Day, Dusk, Night, and Dawn.

My reasoning is that the aesthetic works well, which is kind of all the reasoning we had for the sun, moon, stars analogy. Do with it what you will lmao, but the painting looks nice.

thinking about a limited life kid au where the whole game is just a REALLY intense game they made up that's kind of like capture the flag and mafia in one. every sunday their parents bring them to grian's house for a play date.

one week grian stayed up way past his bedtime the night before so he was practically falling asleep and they had to drag him around. another week cleo and pearl couldn't make it so they dragged gem and lizzie, who were on a walk together, into it.

everytime they get tagged or scrape their knee they lose an hour of playtime, and they gain half an hour when they tag someone. they have one of the parents choose a boogeyman each week.

the clockers are playing house on a bunch of rocks, the bad boys are on the back porch, the mean gills have claimed the pool, team ties has the swing set, and the nosy neighbors are by the bushes.

i just really like limited life kid aus. they're so cute!

NOSEY NEIGHBORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XP

[ID: Two digital Limited Life drawings, one of Pearl and one of Big B. Pearl is holding two diamond sickles and wearing a blue cat hoodie, she also has a cat tail, against a red background. Big B is holding a diamond sword and wearing an orange frog hoodie against a blue background. They both have happy expressions with closed eyes and stuck out tongues. /End ID]

my cool and epic headcanon is that Tango’s fire changes color depending on the biome just like actual fire in the nether. He then forgets to tell everyone about it, so his teammates are a little concerned why he’s blue-raspberry flavored all of the sudden.

imagine, if only for a moment. joel and jimmy. they meet up and they click. like glue, like lego bricks with their spotty colors, and like old friends that have seen each other before again and again. their timers tick and they ignore the flames that consume them as the realize they died together.

then they live together.

imagine once again grian joins these ragtag self proclaimed "bad boys" and fits just as well. though not as well as jimmy and joel first did, their bond stronger than ever, jimmy feels a pull towards grian in some unexplainable way that he has many times tried to put into words.

he somehow felt it would be easier explained if they Listened.

now imagine a day has passed and grian fits in so much better than they thought, the stitching they needed like a patch on leather jackets and aviators to boot. they laugh and they build what they all agree on is the most ugly thing created but it helps joels plague. one which they vow to help him with. they build the bread bridge on bad boys manor.

and somehow, they're proud of the blood sweat and wheat.

imagine these three bound to each others side through every murder and kill they get. they find themselves with no allies and a metallic taste in their mouth as they grit their teeth and get by. they may not have allies but they have each other.

death holds a string of desires over their heads as they reach and reach.

imagine the first death comes in their bridge. their mourning period starts as they give in and realize that they can't save their bridge and in some twisted turn of events they all feel genuinely sad over it. they spent an ungodly amount of time on it, and while it may not be much more than an eyesore by the end of it it was theres.

but the memories last longer than what was lost.

keep on and imagine their plan of recovery, it comes from the sky with a carrot cake, a loaf of bread, and a submarine sandwich. the sky is safer and they crave safer. although not pretty its theirs and they capitalize. the grip of death urges them forward and they stretch the base as far as their eyes can manage until they run out of blocks

it reminds them of what they had lost.

and imagine the three keep together. they love each other and they care for each other. the time ticks down and again. it feels like they can never possibly get out of their pit of red. hot and angering but the time keeps ticking. their minds keep ticking.

they see the fear on each other, like moldy bread.

and imagine jimmy falls one too close to out and they huddle around him like guards, they can't lose each other so they go hunting. hunts lead to death. and death leads to reminders. reminders of what was lost, what they could have had, and reminders of how far they had come.

jimmy had died on skynet 2. their relapse in memory. the one memory they couldn't get back

imagine now, joel gets scared. too frightened to think of anything other than jimmy and grian. he can barely feel any remains of morals as he bounds around looking for any easy kill to save grian. he fears for his death. and he fears for grian. he knows its his time. he doesn't want it to be. but he already took from grian. and he doesn't want another thing to be taken from him.

he dies on the remains of bread bridge with grian just out of his sight. forever in his mind.

the world goes still as the thunder strikes and takes salvation away. the water trickles and falls and he sees joels blood seep into the water. grian sees his own tears join with the heart of jimmy still in the blocks around him. he sees his friends and the only people he would give the world to die. too soon. far too soon. he sobs and he cries and he cant think. he can only mourn because thats what they did together. and thats what he'll do alone.

Incomplete Summary of Limited Life Session 2

Bdubs engages in Hubris. He is predictably punished for this.

It is found that the Bad Boys are named after the quality of their puns

Chekov's Flammable Wooden Mansion 2: Electric Boogaloo

T.I.E.S somehow manages to largely stay out of trouble, and also gets a fourth chance at cow farming

Scar and Cleo Scam the Server

Bread Bridge My Beloved

[thebadb0ys]

i love team T.I.E.S. because we have etho and impulse who are (in my opinion) some of the most composed players and then. tango and skizz who are always screeching about something and it's so funny to me the contrast 😂
