#GGG + Impulse

[bigmoon-is-bigwife]

Man still rotating the GGG + Impulse team. Cleo's comment about how GGG is historically very loyal to their day one partners (with a few rare exceptions) and Impulse is....Impulse. I don't watch his POV but I think he HAS remained loyal the last few seasons, he just can't shake that reputation. I think he's just most known for being disloyal out of anyone in the series. I'm interested to see how this plays out

[justnormallucas]

While I already love GGG and their dynamic with all my heart, I think they are the group that talk about their past seasons together the most, and from a lore perspective it makes me love them in Wild Life so much more

It works so perfectly with the whole “winners remembering their game” headcanon since in each season they won, they were involved in some way (GGG, Divorce Quartet, real life reunion) and what’s more is that it fits with each of their characters this season.

Pearl’s willingness to cause trouble and make enemies because her winning season was Double Life aka their messy breakup.

Cleo being the enabler since Real Life was very chaotic but very low stakes, just friends having a silly fun time.

Scott then being the one to keep it all together and sane because GGG were at their strongest as a team in Last Life.

it always awesome when these three pair up they are just so much fun together, and cannot be more happy theyve properly teamed again and can’t wait to see what unfolds this season

[seawitchkaraoke]

I love how angst obsessed the fandom is but I will say I think it's very funny bc everyone is like ohhh GGG+Impulse is gonna be so angsty, that cannot end well and I'm here like well, see, I think they might disappoint you bc Cleo and Scott are the most loyal ppl on the server, they never betray their day one alliance and Pearl is usually the same as well and also.... I think while the fandom is obsessed with angst, the creators might just be excited to properly team up again

So what I'm saying is, I am so excited to read super angsty fanfics while watching this group be absolute besties in the actual series lmao

Finished Martyn’s episode 1

NO ZOMBIEWOOD TEAM </3 (yet) but possible grityn and ahasbands team, if Mumbo and Skizz can stop being so paranoid for five seconds /lh

About to watch Cleo’s pov but from what I saw in Martyn’s, GGG + Impulse???? HELLO???? This is everything I’ve ever wanted (other than zombiewood)

[something-wicked-within-me]

Silly little WL au of mine,,,,

Against all odds, PICS stay together. Or, at least, the GGGs do - Impulse is the one to team with Gem and Joel. He leaves around Session 2.

It's episode 9. The final confrontation. They're all on red - most of the other teams have already fallen, aside from a few stragglers, and it's the GGGS vs Gem, Joel and Impulse ("GIJ", they've affectionately dubbed themselves, so their catchphrase could be "the gij's up!").

"Pearl," Gem pleads. "Please. Come with me! We can be Soup Group again! Well — plus Joel, but... Soup Group! Come on. Don't you remember Murder Camel? We can destroy those guys! Please. You don't need them. Let me save you." "Oh, Gem..." Pearl's eyes soften, as she strides forward, lowering her sword to cup Gem's cheek in her hand. The deer-hybrid leans into the wolf's touch. A deer trying to save a wolf. How pathetic. Gem gasps as she feels Pearl slot a sword between her ribs. The fawn looks up, horrified, her face almost betraying betrayal... though, that would be the wrong term, because betrayal required them being allies in the first place! They'd never been allies. Let alone friends. "You want to save me? Please. I don't need saving. I'm right where I want to be." Pearl was sick of people telling her who she should be with - what she should want, do, think, be. She knew exactly what she wanted. She wanted Cleo. She wanted Scott. And she wanted this deer to rot. She allowed Gem's corpse to fall to the ground with a cold smirk. Nothing but roadkill. Then, she stepped back to her real team, her real friends, her darling partners. Gem was an absolute idiot if she thought she'd betray them. Pearl gave Cleo a peck on her forehead above her forebrow's stitch, and kisses Scott's star-littered nose. Affectionately, Scott wiped the blood off her cheeks with his thumb, like she'd gotten a bit messy eating an ice cream cone and hadn't just killed a rogue roe. She giggled. "Guess the gig's up for the gijs," Pearl couldn't help but mock the dead doe, and Cleo rolled her eyes teasingly at her pun as the two mollycoddled. "The gijs are almost up. Now, come on," Cleo pulled Pearl's sword out of Gem's forgotten corpse while Scott and Pearl were peppering each other with nose-kisses like it was a competition — was it rude of them to be bill and cooing in front of Gem's dead body? Probably!— and offered the weapon to Pearl in the same way a queen might offer a knight back their blade. Once, Cleo might have hesitated to hand her a weapon, but not anymore. Running a blade through each other's backs now would be like running a blade through their own. "We've got an Impulse to catch."

Real Life is just like, a Greatest Hits version of every single other life series. And also it happens in about an hour

[ty-bayonet-betteridge]

cleo: "pearl... we're in the same team."

pearl: "...for now, right. this is how it always-"

cleo: "NONONONONONONONO-"

[solarockk]

I want to make an animatic of the life serie and cant catch me now the new olivia rodrigo so bad but i HAVE to wait for the finale or ill be upset i didnt include the new winner

[lolli-popples]

So, in the first episode, GGG(Impulse) took most of the creaking hearts from the pale garden.

Now in episode 2, BigB is a creaking. The first thing he does after this change? He goes over to their island. Hangs around their group all episode. He agrees to ally with them.

Fun fact about creakings, they need to be within 32 blocks of their heart and will disappear if forcibly moved from that range.

All of that team has creaking hearts on them. But they haven't given any to BigB as far as I'm aware. Just saying. Maybe he has to stick around.

[bigmoon-is-bigwife]

I did NOT expect Cleo, Pearl and Scott to team together again! I USED TO PRAY FOR DAYS LIKE THIS! They're so messy, all reminiscing about how they've all killed each other before <3

Also Impulse is there.

[something-wicked-within-me]

Praying next ep Pearl stays with GGGs forever and ever. and Gem lives with Joel and they barely interact all season

it’s okay guys pearl will leave *that* alliance and then be with someone else who actually cares like gem and joel or the bam girls guys it’s gonna be okay guys we have to stay strong guys gUYS-

(Is it delusional for me to think that if gem sees first hand the way scott and cleo treat pearl she would actually be like "Hey hold on don't be mean-!"?)

it’s okay…it’s okay…someone will see what’s happening between ggg and actually talk to Pearl about it…she’ll realise that this isn’t good for her…trust…

(Honestly anon I’m so tempted to write something along the lines of Gem comforting Pearl, if I stay in this torment nexus for long enough I’ll have enough motivation)

Wild Life Session 1 takeaways thus far:

- Tiny Grian blends in with the fish

- Scar and Jimmy are doing their best... I don't have anything specific to say, but I like their cherry hill base plans. And I'm just really glad Scar decided to call them Bam Boys instead of Bang Boys.

- Grian's reputation as a cheater precedes him and it cracks me up... He really is out here like "You really think I'd cheat on you guys? I've been gone for like 5 minutes" and Mumbo and Skizz are just not having it.

- Grian: "I'm not here to share." [Realizes Martyn took all the sugarcane right in front of him.] "Oh, wait... Can I have some?"

- Etho calling BigB his big brother and saying he's nervous about wandering away and needs someone to hold his hand...

- I really enjoyed the Etho-Bdubs banter over the black horse. Bdubs had so many great lines throughout this episode. I especially liked "Wait, I can't take this- That's a bad example for the children."

- Giant Etho and Tiny Scott in the boat...

- Martyn looking around in confusion when he can't find Ren like "I think Ren shrank so much, he perished."

- Ahasbands... save me, Wild Life Ahasbands... Martyn gushing over Mumbo (to Ren) and imitating Mumbo's voice and talking about how cool he is (followed by their later teasing chat over Martyn inventing the wheel) is killing me slowly...

-> sldkfjsdklfj wait, Martyn really is gunning to bring Mumbo on his team, huh? Yeah, that's not gonna last.

- Ren and Martyn talking about how they were going to claim the top of the cherry hill unless someone already put down a sign, and then they reach the top of a long climb and there's just a sign saying Scar and Jimmy live there. Comedy gold...

Martyn: I think [Grian] thinks of you as 'less than half.' Mumbo, who has spent an entire episode bragging about being tiny and loathing anyone big: Or more than half. That'd be worse.

I'm crying.

- I enjoy Martyn saying "I love that for us" in regards to a group he's trying to schmooze his way into, but isn't yet part of.

- I'm fascinated by Sub 1 Club's obsession with getting as tiny as they can and opting to go into swim mode as a form of land travel.

- Oh gosh, Mumbo knows Martyn so well... The lack of faith he has in his honesty is incredible.

- Mumbo screaming at Martyn, "I knew you were tall! I knew it! You're just pretending to be small!" in regards to his personality despite him being small enough to fit in a pocket.

- Martyn leaving by saying "I'm not your friend anymore" sdklfjskd?? Drama in the Ahasband household tonight (/jk)

- Pearl, reluctant to kill animals that have low respawn: Yeah, but porkchops...... Scott: Taste great; yeah, you're right!

- The dichotomy between the other groups I watched, who mostly kept trying to mine or build after they shrank, and GGG + Impulse who started doing parkour.

- CACKLING at Pearl dying, asking her teammates for food, and Cleo looks straight at her and says "Arguably, you shouldn't need any" since her hunger meter refilled when she died.

- Impulse is going to be a really interesting balance to GGG because Cleo is being lightly "aggressive" towards Pearl (Denying her food, teasing her and Impulse for having a thing for soup since they're the Soup Group with Gem). Cleo and Scott cling to each other a lot, so Pearl having a close friend and not ending up a third wheel is interesting.

Scott, digging, calling up in a wobbly voice with his heavy Scottish accent: Pearl, there's a drowned down here! Pearl: There's a... clown down there? Impulse: There is now!

- I doubt the bit will be continuing, but wouldn't that be hilarious if the Clocker family tree extended due to Cleo joking that Pearl and Impulse were her parents?

- Considering I'm currently in the "Impulse and Cleo struggling with half-smothered resentment and weirdness over 3rd Life and stuff" arc in Dog's Life... their conversation about Cleo saying she doesn't trust Impulse is perfect timing. That is literally the arc I've been posting.

- Etho said they're playing in a 500 x 500 world instead of a 700 x 700 one this time. There are so many people this time, so this should be interesting!

-> Even on a server brimming with people, BigB's alone again... (It is very late when I'm scheduling this, so I will watch him another time <3)

Heather, Heather, Heather, and impulse

I've seen GGG and Guy, GGG and Girldad, and GGG and Gossip as well and I love all these options.

Petition to call GGG+impulse gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss, and grownup

[azaleastobloom]

GGG+Impulse are very much early 2000s internet aesthetic to me
