#dictator!mack

[world-of-ezraprisc]

dictator!mack reigns.

Artist Note: this piece is pretty challenging to do especially that i have to use a reference for this just because i want to make this fanservice to be different than my past works.

also i still suck at BG.

[yourthoughtsjim]

Do you still consider writing smut?

(If not, its fine and just ignore this ask)

If yes, could you write a AMAB reader x Mack where the reader is the dominant one and Mack's the submissive one?

IF YOU WANT TO, DONT FORCE YOURSELF :)

I have, however I haven't written much for AMAB so I'm not guaranteeing that it'll be good. Would you prefer blue suit or dictator?

[running-on-a-broken-record]

what if i just said that i can fix him (no really i can) fits any of matthew’s characters?

OH MY GOSH YOU’RE SO RIGHT

I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) would be so perfect for MadPat and Mack specifically

Trying to fix Mack (dictator) by dating him and making him change his ways to be a kinder ruler… finally realizing it’s impossible because he’s too far gone??? PERFECTION

Trying to convince MadPat not to be the evil chainsaw maniac he is, and begging him to not murder anyone else, but he doesn’t listen and does it anyway? AHHH

[gaymingintrovert]

dictator!mack: i'm in control of everything, you have no power over me.

also dictator!mack, crumbling into an absolute flustered mess the second the captain does anything mildly assertive:

This is literally what happens and you can’t convince me otherwise

Mack: I’m the one in charge here

Captain: Mack if you don’t fix the coffee machine, you’re getting a demerit

Mack, already fully a dictator and blushing: YeS captain-

The most fun part is the captain’s 100% oblivious to this

So while they’re still getting used to Mack being in charge they’ll just-

“You don’t have permission to be here, engineer.”

And Mack just explodes. He is deceased. Especially if he’s given ~The Look~ of sternness

[insane4fandoms]

i have returned with more jacksepticeye mack thoughts:

i think matpat's portrayal of mack is unnerving and intense, but sean's could potentially be truly unsettling and scary.

i just remembered that mack actually does do that "slit your throat" motion at some point, and omg that's literally antisepticeye's thing-

yet another song from the "everything is a lot" album that makes me think of him:

tbh i almost feel like writing some fanfiction for this guy,,,,

Thats what I always felt about Matpat’s way of playing Mack and the potential of Jacksepticeye’s Mack

Matt’s portrayal is controlling, condescending, and narcissistic, which really gives the dictator vibe from him. The way he holds himself, that wide smile he carries, looking down at the Viewer as if they’re nothing more than an ant. That aura of power and self absorbed narcissism is what makes Matt! Mack unique

While Sean’s portrayal might’ve been similar to Antisepticeye. Erratic movements, the chaotic and scary aura he would’ve radiated, yet the familiar trait to have control. Jacksepticeye’s way of speaking could be loud and brash, quiet and unnerving, or slow and mean. If he puts that mood to Mack’s character, he could be even more of a danger.

Jack!Mack might see you as something lower than him, but like Matt!Mack, they both would want to take away the Viewer’s role as Captain, become the ruler of a colony, and keep the former Captain around for amusement and as a pet. But the one thing of how Jack!Mack could be like as a dictator.

Is the fact he would want to rule with fear, unlike Matt!Mack wanting to rule with power.

Oh how I love character analysis, makes you wish you could actually meet them. Or not.

Ok, so imagine in the universe where Mack gains control of the ship and becomes a dictator, the one where he practically makes you immortal and keeps you in a cell for the rest of your eternity. There’s this big explosion in the middle of the city, and Mack is getting footage of what’s happening live, and in the smoke he sees a very familiar silhouette, which gives his camera a wave and disappears. And he immediately goes running to where the you’re being held captive and when he gets there…you’re still there, chained!like an animal, so he leaves. And the only person who knows what happened is you, and you weren’t in your cell 5 minutes ago.

No Chapter Today

Not only is it Fathers day, meaning I’m not currently home, but my mental health tanked last night and I haven’t completely gotten out of the funk, so today I won’t be posting another DoL chapter (as I also have not yet finished it).

Trying to do some good self care. Hopefully I’ll have a chapter for tomorrow!

In the meantime, have some cute art my bestie @clemclamdoodles did for me of Mack and Rhys :)

Iswm ponderings- Mack ending

I was thinking about Iswm part 2 with the dicator Mack ending.

We know how the time line got glitched and how the captain's fate got worse and worse with each gltich.

In the first glitch, the captain was first treated like a lowly gopher/ servant nt (Kinda like how we treated Mark in that one ending.)

But then then Captain was being imprisoned, and being injected with things that will prolong our life in prison.

But then we, the captain, were sentenced to death by firing squad and then it was to be broadcast to the colony as an exapmple.

Here is where the ponderings come in. We know egnineer mark got seperated from us, and how sometimes we would run into each other in different time lines.

I wonder how he would have reacted seeing the captain in each of the scenarios.

And then there would be different reactions depending if he was dissilluisoned by us at that time or not.

(Tempted to do sketches or a drabble about this. so many good story possibilties.)

Turkish Café

Artist: August Macke (German, 1887–1914)

Date: 1914

Medium: Oil on plywood

Collection: Lenbachhaus, Munich, Germany

Description

In April 1914, August Macke, together with Paul Klee and Louis Moilliet, undertook what would later become a legendary trip to Tunis. Under the impression of the southern light and the more intense effect of the colors, his art experienced a final heightening. He returned from Tunis with a wealth of watercolors and sketches. He later executed the painting "Turkish Café" in two versions in Bonn, and gave the present one to Bernhard Koehler, who had supported the trip financially. According to Moilliet's recollection, the motif was the covered entrance at the foot of the stairs to the then famous Café des Nattes in Sidi-Bou-Said.

While Macke captures this motif with a number of details in the drawings in his sketchbook, in the oil painting he concentrates entirely on the lapidary power of pure, strongly colored surfaces of almost abstract quality. The light-filled spatial volumes that still played a certain role in the paintings from 1913 have also given way to the dictates of pure color. The green figure of the seated Arab seems to have been cut out of the blue surface of the house wall, his red fez forms a complementary contrast. The orange and violet of the door panel also stand vertically in the picture as a pure, almost indissoluble complementary contrast. The blue of the house wall finds its complementary complement in the yellow of the chair and the awning. In other ways, such as in the works of Franz Marc or Wassily Kandinsky, Macke's pictures gain their "inner necessity" by reducing their color and formal elements to the greatest simplicity.

[segretecose]

Ok, Taskmaster UK tier list. Go

excluding: pre-Series 7 (because it has been ages since i've seen them and i honestly do not remember); Champion of Champions; New Years Treat

(*) indicates the series that i have watched multiple times and/or more recently.

S16*: possibly dictated by recency bias but i genuinely enjoyed this series more than any other i think. it usually takes me a couple of episodes to warm up to the cast but i was immediately sucked in this time. not a single normal person in sight and Sam Campbell is a special brand of insane that i resonate with on a worryingly deep and personal level.

S7*: watching James Acaster get genuinely angry over futile things is one of life's greatest pleasures if you ask me and my god does this series deliver on that front. this cast exists somewhere between found family and deranged Lord of the Flies remake in a way that i find irresistible.

S10: nearly ex aequo with S13 but the fact that this was filmed during the pandemic gives it an underlying hysterical quality that makes it take the cake. the outtakes (especially the "Little Trumper" part) are possibly the hardest i've ever laughed while watching this programme.

S13*: the way the cast interact in the studio really gives this series some extra oomph. i can't quite put my finger on it but the vibe is sort of like Fellowship of the Ring except they all die the second they set foot outside of Rivendell. besides, Greg Davies being genuinely scared of Bridget Christie will never not be hilarious to me.

S11*: very close to S10 and S13 but i have a primal dislike of Lee Mack that means i personally can't fully enjoy these episodes. there are still some excellently cursed moments (e.g., "absolute casserole") to be enjoyed. i had a weird crush on Mike Wozniak for months after watching this. it was humiliating but it bumps it up in the ranking.

S9: i've only watched it once back when it aired and maybe it would rank higher if i did watch it again. Ed Gamble's actual visceral rage at David Baddiel during that one studio task is legendary, i wish we got more of that. unfortunately i can't remember much else.

S14: as deducible from this list one of my favourite Taskmaster tropes is Contestant Who Desperately Wants to Do Well being teamed up and hindered by Inept Contestant(s) and the Dara O'Briain - Fern Brady - John Kearns partnership is a shining example of that. ranks low(er) only because i feel like the tasks themselves weren't terribly memorable.

S12: similarly to S9, i feel like i need to revisit this one to form fair judgment but i don't think i ever really clicked with the cast. i liked the contestants individually but perhaps their interaction was hampered by the social distancing measures. i remember it was enjoyable but that's about it.

S8: another example of one cast member souring the overall experience for me. i didn't love Lou Sanders in this and i just can't be objective about it. Joe Thomas had some good moments i think.

S15: even though it's the second most recent series i can't remember much from it. nothing against the contestants but unfortunately i think something did not work and the comparison to S16 makes it look even more lacklustre in hindsight.

What if the egos saw the reader watching gtlive

(btw, i love all your fics) <3

Thank youuuu

The Detective:

— He’d probably laugh a little bit when he sees you watching his videos

— Probably teases you a little bit, but he really loves that you care enough to watch his videos just for him

MadPat:

— Probably doesn’t care

— He notices how the host looks strangely similar to him… hmmm…

— But doesn’t worry about it

Mack (dictator):

— I think he’d make note of it and use it as a way to distract you

— Like, say he has to leave you alone for a while to do dictator stuff that you can’t be part of, so he puts the screen in front of you to keep you occupied while he’s gone

— Kind of how parents will put screens in front of kids to keep them distracted

The Hermit:

— He would not trust screens at all

— “What is the talking box?” “Who is the tiny human?”

— Definitely very disturbed by it

WarfPat:

— “Ohhh, my good ole alter ego!”

— Probably judging him for, well… everything, but it won’t bother him if you watch MatPat’s videos

— Won’t let you watch GTLive when you could be with him, though. It makes him jealous (even though he’d never call it “jealousy”, what a silly word)

DarkPat:

— Hates it.

— Forces you to turn it off and probably gives you the silent treatment for a couple hours

— Eventually calms down enough to tell you about his hatred for MatPat, and respectfully asks you to never watch his videos again

Ness:

— “Woah is that me?!”

— 100% jokes about how you’ve found his long lost twin online

Every time you watch it, he makes a comment like “Oh, I can hear my twin” or “Are you watching my twin’s YouTube channel again?”

[gaymingintrovert]

I don’t know if your request are open? But I’m a Mack lover and I wanted a Mack and captain interaction please! :) (ISWM)

My requests are open! I just haven’t gotten any in a long time!

And absolutely, fellow Mack lover

Here’s some little drabbles with the Macks (there isn’t much resolution in them because I’m bad at writing short things but that’s okay-)

Crewmate

“Captain!” Mack runs up to you, hiding something behind his back. You turn to him. “Yes, Mack?” “I made you something! Close your eyes!” You hold your hands out and close your eyes, and he hands you a small box. You open the box and look inside, seeing a small metal flower and the words “Will you go out with me?” engraved on the box. You giggle and kiss Mack’s cheek. “Of course!” He blushes a deep shade of red and smiles brightly. “I’ll pick you up at dinner! We’ll eat in the bridge!” He hugs you and kisses your forehead before running off, skipping happily. You go back to your room and put the box on your desk in plain view, excited for your date.

Head Engineer

Mack spent most of his morning looking for you. You had gotten into a habit of doing your own thing in the morning, and Mack was admittedly not the biggest fan of that. He wanted to spend as much time with you as he could without admitting to you that he wanted it. “Captain.” He stands directly behind you, stopping himself from holding you. You try to hide your blush. He’s never been this close to you, though he has been slowly getting closer and closer to you. “What do you want, Mack?” “I have go make sure you’re doing your job right.” You roll your eyes. “I assure you, I’m doing my job right.” You hear him take a deep breath and feel his hand gently rest on your shoulder. “I-I also wanted to ask if you wanted to take a break. Together.” His shyness is clear in his voice and you giggle. “That sounds nice.” He brightens up. “We can take that now if you want.” You nod. “Yeah. I need a break.” He takes your hand and leads you to a break room. You two talk for a while, eventually starting to get closer to each other and even cuddling a little. Mack looks at you towards the end of the break. “…Captain? Would you want to maybe…go on a date with me?” He blushes and looks away from you. You feel your face heat up and you kiss his cheek. “I’d love to.”

Dictator

Mack thought you were nearly perfect from the second he saw you. He never started showing his affections for you until recently. You didn’t expect to have a very good life on the new planet, but Mack made sure you were taken care of. You had one of the best rooms in his house and you were kept very safe from the people who disliked you. Mack had wanted to ask you to be his for a long time, but was never confident enough. Today, he gathered all his courage and knocked on your door. You had apparently been asleep, since your bedhead was obvious (and quite adorable to Mack). “Y/N. I wanted to talk to you about something.” You start looking a little nervous. “W-what is it?” He takes a deep breath, most of his confidence suddenly gone. “I wanted to tell you that I’ve adored you for a while. I-I was wondering if you would want to…go on a date tonight?” His bright blush is obvious and he looks nervous. You relax and smile. “That sounds wonderful!” He smiles and picks you up. He twirls you around and kisses your forehead. “I’ll make sure everything is perfect!” You giggle and hug him back.

[insane4fandoms]

Remember that time Dictator Mack made you immortal so you would always serve him forever?

If that ain’t some baby girl shit, I don’t know what is

[lightleckrereins]

Question based on a costume detail I recently noticed (thank you, all the queens posting farewells to Courtney Mack!!):

Do you prefer the Parr costume with the studs across the neckline like the OBC (2021) had or without it?

Personally I think it’s a nice touch and I feel the newer Parr costumes look a little unfinished without it, especially because it looks like some don’t even have a lining (this def feels like the wrong word, but I’m not a fashion/costume expert) on it.

(Also small secondary question: Do you plan to add the Parr top with the studs on the neckline to the game? I know the update’s already planning to have SO FREAKIN MUCH GOODNESS that I’d 1000% get it, but I guess it can’t hurt to ask!)

Thanks for being awesome and maintaining an awesome blog♥️

I don't mind it either way tbh. The trim finishes the final line on the top, but also it breaks the illusion ofhaving only mesh over it. In theory the black trim is the worst option as there isn't another black only edge in the entire costume, but I actually like it (did my own costume that way which says a lot).

You aren't wrong in that the costumes aren't lined at least in the skin toned panels. They use a skin tone mesh matched to the actor's skin tone and the stripes on top of it. UK and US costumes use slightly different mesh which dictates the finishing of the collar.

US costumes have a very see through mesh (you can see the underlayer through it and sometimes the bra depending on the leotard material) so folding the mesh on top to hem it would be visible from the outside so the trim becomes necessary. I don't know why they stopped doing studs though. UK costumes have a much thicker mesh that can be folded back and finished by hand without becoming visible, this way it looks as if there is only stripped mesh on the center panels.

And the real question is which Parr top am I not adding into the update: US, US with studs on the collar and UK with darker studs are all coming

New Story!

I’ve got a new story I’m working on! It’s a fanfiction for the series In Space With Markiplier, and follows my OC, Rhys Williams, and their story as secretary for their cousin, Captain Carter Wheeler!

This is an OC x Canon story that does heavily focus on the relationship between the MC, Rhys, and their love interest, Mack. It also focuses on dealing with and overcoming childhood trauma, betrayals, and heartbreak.

It is currently rated T, though it is possible that as the story progresses that this could change. Ratings and Tags will be updated as needed!
