#Minecraft faultlines

Screenshots from 2021 of sights in my real old Minecraft Beta worlds.

i wonder when the empty was reborn did it mirror the same original landmasses along old skeletons of plates and faultlines or did it just generate a completely different minecraft seed

"The Terrible Fires of Old Regret"

Art I made for Chapter 15 of Faultlines, a fic on Ao3 I worked on alongside @subwalls @marianne-dash-wood @chrysalizzm @spaceeecactus and more!

“Thanks,” I said, even as I winced in empathy for the guy that had just been knocked out.

“No prob,” the haunting vibes of his voice were at odds with his casual choice of words.  “We’re nearly done here.”

Because of Steven Universe (and Minecraft, by way of a reference to Steven Universe), I can’t read “No prob” without thinking there should be a “Bob” after it.

Also, I love the idea of this really spooky voice, coming from this similarly spooky skull guy, just casually going “No prob”. :P

I glanced around the battlefield.  Injured and unconscious ABB members littered the ground around the building.  Though we’d been outnumbered at the outset, only a few stragglers remained.

“Tattletale!” Grue bellowed, “How many?”

“This is it!  Building’s clear!” she called back.

Good job!

Following her voice, I saw her crouching on top of one of the few cars parked along the street, gun dangling from her fingers, out of the way of the fight and with deterrence in hand.

“Spitfire!” Grue called out.  “Snail!”

He’s got a name, y’know. Though to be fair he does go by “Gregor the Snail”.

The two members of Faultline’s team worked in tandem.  Spitfire set about spewing a geyser of fluid out of the nozzle at the base of her mask, directing it to the base of the building, where it ignited on contact.

And there it is. A piece of fanart that was sent to me after 5.1 essentially confirmed my then tongue-in-cheek suggestion that Spitfire literally spits fire, but this is the first I’m seeing of it in the story itself...

I honestly kind of love the literalness of the name. The power’s pretty cool, too. It sounds like it works by spitting out some kind of fluid that ignites when it hits something that isn’t Spitfire herself (or her outfit, one might hope), which is a neat way to avoid the problems associated with spewing fire directly from the lower half of your face.

Mysterious severe faultlining in one of my 2011 Minecraft worlds.

Faultlining between Beta 1.7 and Alpha 1.1 terrain, except that the Alpha one is coming from a Beta generation mod, and the Beta 1.7 one was generated in this world first.
