I know very little about YouTube minecraft at this point in my life so I had no idea that hermitcraft co. and the dream smp squad have interacted.
Watching the clips were grian and mumbo specifically have to hold themselves back from letting on just how much destain they hold toward those punks is really really funny

Wild Life spoilers below! Like, a lot of spoilers.
So, Flower Husbands and Boat Boys fans, how're we feeling?
Jimmy asking Scott to look at his butt and Scott dropping everything to comply, then saying Jimmy's butt is maybe a bit bigger than the G's base, and Jimmy going in the most flirtatious voice ever, "Aww, stop it!" Why are they like this? You all know I'm a die-hard Ranchers truther, but oh my word.
And then Etho "tough guy" Slab coming to Joel to be like, "Joel, Bdubs is bullying me, come help!" and Joel going along with it IMMEDIATELY??? He didn't even question it, just went, that tracks, and went to go bully Bdubs on Etho's behalf. Not to mention Joel seeing the bamboozlers in boats and going, "Hey, that's mine and Etho's thing! I have to go find Etho!" He's so obsessed fr. (Also, Etho coming over to warn Gem and Joel Tango was on the hunt? "Tough guy" my ass, this guy physically cannot restrain himself from being nice and also obsessed.)
Also. Can we talk about Tango real quick (least surprising thing I've ever said)? This guy. He's almost as bad as Skizz at killing! How does he EVER get as far as he does? I say this with the maximum possible amount of love in my heart, Tango is my beloved, but goodness my gracious, he's such a wet cat of a man. The poor guy is so pathetic! I'm glad he can stay smiling and having fun throughout it all though, he's such a good sport. I did genuinely believe he was about to go out of the series about three times in his episode though.
I also loved Gem trying so hard to help the reds and yellows kill her without actively letting them do it was adorable. She was genuinely proud of Mumbo when he finally got her! I love how she interacts with everyone, especially when they're trying to kill her. She's either silent in concentration, sighing in exasperation, or just straight-up giggling with glee. She's having so much fun in this series, I love it. I'm so happy for her.
I loved the way people started gunning for Grian specifically cause he made the series. They're finally rising up against the Watchers, finally taking control of their own lives and narratives. Combined with the hc that each of the wildcards are an aspect of the Watchers (I'm assuming this is something about them being outside time? Idk), and this season is building up some insane lore possibilities.

I also need to talk about my blorbo (scar. Ofc.) so here's my silly thoughts on these two:
Theyre both aroace and awkward as fuck when it comes to showing affection. Scar loved holding hands. Mumbo does too except he's very weird about it and is always very anxious to initiate any hand holding and doesn't know if it's appropriate in the given moment (he's just like me fr)
Mumbo also struggles with social anxiety. Scar struggles with general anxiety. They're both anxious little fucks.
Scar always feels cold and Mumbo is surprisingly warm so Scar loves cuddling with Mumbo. He's like his own personal heater.
That's all for now djfkdkgken
he's so me FRRRR
Mumbo is SO aroace and just incredibly socially anxious, like that man does NOT know how to initiate any physical touches and interactions, he just overthinks everything and just makes himself more nervous (pov a friend just hugged him)
Also!! Yes yes yes Mumbo constantly being warm for some reason?? I've been going INSANE over this idea for so long and GAHHHH his hugs are always one of the warmest, so the hermits who are almost always cold like Scar would 100% just seek out hugs from him if they're feeling down
Which I find silly cause I imagine Mumbo just being����while cuddling for the first few times that happens because he?? doesn't know??? what to do???? he's the completely oblivious to affection type guy. He gets used to it tho ofc, you kinda have to when 2 of the people closest to you (Scar and Grian) really enjoy cuddles and sleepovers
Scar, the incredibly affectionate one + Mumbo, the non affectionate one = "Hey he asked for no pickles" type of dynamic
also you bet Mumbo babysits Jellie sometimes and its definitely not because he's always warm and she's a big fan of it

A formaldehyde chapter? Long time no see fr
Take My Tea With Formaldehyde
[Start] [<Previous] [Next>]
Chapter 16: Tether Me To The Ground
(More beneath cut)
Letting go of Grian felt next to impossible.
It was so wonderful, so dreamlike to have him back in his arms, that Mumbo feared letting him go would be all it took for Grian to push him away again. As if one single, out of place breath would shatter the moment and Grian would change his mind about being close to him. Or, even worse, Mumbo would suddenly wake up in his bed, cold and alone, and he would have to face the reality that it was all just a fabrication of his pathetic, lonely mind.
That Grian would never be a part of his life again.
Really, Mumbo didn’t think he could handle something like that. It would shatter him into pieces far too small to reshape back into what it once was. He didn't want that; to be lonely again.
So, he wrapped his arms around Grian even tighter.
Grian squeaked against him, but he did not pull back. Mumbo’s chest felt tight, a clenched fist falling into place around his heart and tugging. He wanted to hold on forever, until they were completely drenched by the rain, until they were the only things that existed in the universe.
He hadn’t realised before just how much he'd missed the smell of Grian's shampoo. It was so familiar, so comforting - like he was being welcomed home after a long year away. The scent wasn’t something he'd ever given much thought to before, a constant companion that hung around his blankets and the occasional hoodie, but now that it had been absent from his life for so long... he didn't ever want to lose it again.
Unwinding his arms from around Grian’s shoulders felt impossible. He wouldn’t do it, not even as his shoes began to fill with rainwater, not even for the warm, homemade meal had never sounded so appetising before, or–
Oh no.
“My groceries!” Mumbo exclaimed, rapidly yanking himself away from Grian to search the area for his forgotten shopping.
“Your what?” Grian asked, almost blearily. He blinked up at Mumbo a few times, as if trying to reorient himself after such a sudden shift. “Y-you're not carrying any…?”
His tone was, unsurprisingly, confused. Stiff, like he was trying his best to be lighthearted but wasn’t sure where the line fell. It was so strange, so out of place between the two of them, and the hint of insecurity in Grian’s voice made Mumbo's heart twist- a sharp pang of grief next to the embarrassment at his sudden realisation.
“I- I dropped my groceries,” Mumbo stammered, trying frantically to ignore the ache in his chest. To do anything but focus on that awful tension on Grian’s face. “They're on the other side of the street! Oh, they must be completely ruined now!”
Grian gaped for just a moment or two, a fish out of water as he searched for the words to say. “We might be able to save some? They can't all be ruined,” he said, obviously trying to keep the mood up.
Mumbo nodded, absentmindedly. He really hoped that would be the case. He wouldn't get the meal he wanted if everything was damaged. It was definitely the wrong thing to focus on in that moment, but he had been looking forward to it- to think that it might be ruined… that was just another thought that he wanted to avoid.
“Yeah,” he murmured, eyes finally landing on the discarded shopping bags. “Let's check.”
It was pure instinct, when Mumbo grabbed Grian’s hand in his, linking their fingers together in a tight grip. It had just been so strange to see Grian shift from foot to foot, fidgeting in place like he didn’t know what to do with his hands anymore, now that they weren’t clenched in the back of Mumbo’s shirt. Comforting him like they used to - with their hands intertwined and, ideally, a steaming pot of tea steeping between them - was just so natural.
It wasn't until they reached the groceries that Mumbo realised, mind caught on the tea leaves that he had bought earlier, surely discarded in a puddle somewhere.
"Oh- Uh, sorry about that," he said awkwardly, looking down at their hands. It was a familiar sight. Paler, colder than usual- but so reminiscent of how things once were. Of how Mumbo was so sure they would never be again.
"Ah, no. It's fine," Grian replied, his words slow and hesitant. They dripped from his tongue like syrup, something sweet and tender and slow, and Mumbo pretended not to notice that they both let the touch linger for a moment longer than necessary.
He pretended not to notice the slight blush on Grian's face.
A sight like that… it was from discomfort, no doubt. It had to be.
"Well," Grian cleared his throat, averting his eyes from Mumbo’s now-empty hand and towards the spilled groceries. "There might be some that we could save."
Mumbo nodded in agreement. The bags hadn't broken, thankfully, and only some of it had spilled out onto the sidewalk. "Yeah." He crouched down, tilting the bag upright with a grunt. "Would you- would you mind helping me check what's fine and what isn't? Uh, it's fine if you don't want to, of course, I just-"
Grian cut him off, kneeling down beside him. "Don't be silly,” he said, “Of course I'll help."
They worked quietly for the most part, hands passing over bruised apples and setting boxes of tea back into the shopping bags. It was a much quicker fix, working side by side like this, and Mumbo couldn’t help it as his heartbeat sped up at the proximity. Sitting so closely together, their hands occasionally brushing - it felt like lightning. Like the snapshots of flashing light and the prickling feeling of hairs standing on end.
Most of the groceries were fine, it turned out. Sure, the bread that Mumbo had bought from the bakery had turned soggy from the rain, and one of the jars of jam, a cheap one that Mumbo bought just because, was broken. But… that was all that would need to be replaced.
With Grian at his side and electricity prickling across his skin, it almost felt like a miracle.
Mumbo gathered the refilled bags together with only a little bit of struggle, Grian watching on with muffled laughter, exactly as things should be. The pair of them crossed back over the street, walking quietly until they landed back in front of Mumbo’s apartment building again.
"I'll just... head up and leave these quickly," Mumbo said, nudging his shoulders up to gesture to the bags slung over each of them. "And...then-"
"Grocery store? Together?" Grian said, finishing Mumbo's sentence for him with a small, slightly nervous smile. His jaw was tight, and something about his smile told Mumbo that he almost expected him to say no and just go alone, that they'd say goodbye then and there.
Instead, Mumbo gave him a - hopefully comforting - smile in return. "Grocery store,” he replied with a nod.
Grian’s eyes lit up in an instant, a new sort of clarity banishing the stressed glassiness that had reflected across them before. Suddenly, he looked more alert than he’d been before, as if he’d woken up from a nightmare and finally realised that it was just a dream.
"Sounds good,” he replied, a new, breathless quality to his voice. “I'll- I’ll wait here for you? There's no real point in me following you all the way up…”
Mumbo nodded, swallowing thickly in an attempt to rid himself of the lump in his throat. “Yeah no, you're right. I'll be right down in a second.”
It didn't take long for Mumbo to head up to the apartment. He quickly kicked off his shoes in the entryway, and put the groceries in the fridge without caring where he placed the things. The unbroken jars were left on the counter to be sorted later, and the shattered glass that the pair of them had gathered was carefully tipped into the bin. He took a moment to mourn the bread, before letting it follow suit.
Being quick was the main thing on his mind, desperate not to inconvenience Grian or send the wrong signal. He didn’t know what he’d do if Grian left, if he got back downstairs just to see that he had left Mumbo once again. It felt insurmountable, that possibility of being abandoned, but–
Pausing in the hallway of his apartment, the bare walls suddenly felt incomplete. The pictures of his and Grian’s friendship were still missing from his walls, and the catharsis that had followed that thought for so long was… gone. In an instant.
He couldn't help but feel a bit guilty that he'd taken them down. Sure, he'd needed it at the time, but he hoped Grian wouldn’t take it as anything deeper than that. He didn’t want to upset him, he wanted to do this right.
In that instant, standing in his hallway and staring at the empty spaces where all of his best memories used to be, Mumbo knew that he needed to go back down there. Even if Grian wasn’t waiting, he needed to face it.
Mumbo sighed and toed his shoes on, before rushing back out of the front door.
It felt like he was holding his breath for the whole of the journey down, every step felt like jumping a gaping chasm. It was so intimidating, to care for someone so deeply and have no idea where he stood with them, but-
Wasn’t it worth it?
“Sorry for taking so long,” he breathed as he came to a stop in front of Grian, standing exactly where Mumbo had left him.
“It's alright, you were pretty quick, honestly,” Grian shrugged, tapping the ash from his cigarette with a practised hand. He turned his head away, taking one final drag and breathing it out into the open air of the street before putting the cigarette out under the heel of his boot. He looked nervous again, his brows knitted together and the smell of smoke clinging to him like a fog.
The waiting must have gotten to him too, Mumbo thought, and suddenly Grian following him upstairs felt as if it might have been worth it after all.
With a slow, measured breath, Grian pushed himself off the wall and fell into place beside Mumbo like a moon hitting its orbit. As the rain pattered down behind them, Grian asked, “Grocery store?”
Nodding in response felt a little like being pulled into orbit too.
~
Honestly, going to the grocery store with Grian turned out to be surprisingly fun, albeit a little awkward.
It had been so long since they last met, and Grian had just returned to his life from nowhere, and yet…it was weirdly fun. It felt good to walk together again, to stroll down city streets and point out random, pointless things that they saw. Nodding towards a movie poster that the other might enjoy, or stopping to pet a stray cat together - Mumbo had never realised how the lack of those things had felt like a bullet hole; an open, weeping wound that he just couldn’t patch on his own.
Getting to the grocery store had been half of the fun, and then Grian gave him a dramatic bow as he handed over a basket, and Mumbo couldn’t help but chortle along with his antics. As the two of them paced the aisles of the grocery store, gathering whatever groceries had ended up too damaged to save and sneaking a couple of extras into the basket too, their conversation was near constant.
They would joke and prod at each other, lifting silly or obviously knock-off products off the shelf and laughing together, like they were trying to find their way back to their causal banter. The jokes were slightly awkward and never really that good, but despite that, without fail, they would both always find themselves laughing.
Occasionally, there would be an unnatural silence or a silted reply, something to remind them that they were not yet back to normal, but- it felt like progress.
Like one step forward.
When they were finished, Grian immediately fished up his wallet from his pocket, and when Mumbo tried to stop him from paying, he said, "Mumbo, it's my fault your groceries got destroyed to begin with. Please just- let me pay for these ones.”
His words carried a weight, something that seemed so out of place at that moment, just buying groceries, just spending time together doing ordinary things. His face was set into something determined as he took out his credit card and held it up.
“Please?" Grian asked again.
Mumbo couldn't say no, not when he looked so sure of himself. He had missed Grian's smile, and if he had known how big Grian would smile when Mumbo said yes to the offer, he would've said yes even quicker.
He'd apparently always be weak to Grian’s smile, no matter what.
~
On their way back from the grocery store, as Mumbo was midway through telling Grian about a silly bird that had landed on his windowsill a few days earlier, Grian suddenly stopped.
Mumbo turned back to look at him, finding him staring at the sleek, bold sign of the shop that they were outside of: the bakery that Mumbo had visited earlier that day.
He looked contemplative for a moment, before turning to look in Mumbo’s direction and pointing at the sign. “Is this the place you got that bread from?” He asked.
Puzzled, Mumbo hummed, “Yeah?”
Without another word, Grian stepped into the entrance, taking a deep breath in through his nose to savour the warm, fresh smell of the store. He peered back over his shoulder once he noticed Mumbo wasn’t following him.
“C’mon, aren’t we going to replace that bread as well? It did end up ruined by the rain.” He said, mouth hanging open as if he had something else to say too, but wasn’t quite sure how to word it.
Mumbo waited, patient and unwavering with a grocery bag over his shoulder. They stood like that for a while, maybe thirty seconds as Grian debated his words, lips shifting ever so slightly like he was weighing them up on his tongue.
Then, he looked away, and if Mumbo hadn’t been paying such close attention, he might’ve missed Grian’s whispered, “You looked upset.”
His heart is swelling in his chest, something warm and tight that sits heavy at his core. It’s a little like an anchor, weighing him in place and pinning his feet to the ground, but that grounding sensation is so comfortable at the same time. He wants to bask in it, to stretch out and feel it all like a cat in the sun. It’s just so- thoughtful. So familiar.
He missed it. Missed this side of his best friend.
With a smile, Mumbo nods. He takes Grian’s hand in his own as he brushes past him and into the bakery. “Yeah,” he smiles, and the words are warm like hot cocoa on a cold winter’s night. “That sounds like a good idea.”
~
In the end, they left with more than just the bread.
This time, Mumbo paid for the replacement loaf - another crisp, mouthwatering thing that he was excited to dig into - but apparently, Grian had some more money to spend on Mumbo too. He wound up buying some pastries for the two of them, a couple of golden croissants and pain au chocolat that were fresh out of the oven, the chocolate still half-melted and gooey.
There was some oddly domestic arguing about who should pay, a short and discreet battle of pushing each other's credit cards away from the register when they finally got to paying. Grian demanded that he was buying pastries for the two of them, like it was a given that he'd get something for both. Like it was some irrefutable fact, even as Mumbo reminded him that he’d paid for the ruined groceries.
Grian had been smiling the whole time they play-fought as the poor cashier waited to serve them – the sort of wide, stretching grin that came from a joy too large to contain. Oh, how Mumbo had missed it. He'd missed seeing Grian happy.
They’d split the payment eventually, and the rest of the walk back to Mumbo's house was pleasant as well. The two of them chatted casually about nothing, about whatever came to mind, no matter how random or silly. If Mumbo wanted to, he could close his eyes and pretend that everything was the way it always had been.
But, as they approached his apartment building once again, it only became more obvious that it wasn’t.
It was impossible to ignore just how much had changed as Grian started to lag behind, his steps slowing down and his chatter growing quiet. He seemed hesitant, like he was unsure if he should really be there, and for a second, Mumbo was struck by that same worry that Grian would leave. He fell quiet too as he stepped into the entryway of the apartment block, an impenetrable silence growing between them, awful and bulbous.
If Grian was going to leave, this was the time. If he was going to turn tail, like this entire day had been nothing but a fluke, then it had to be now.
Mumbo held his breath, and he didn’t let it go until Grian was following him up the stairs.
There was something newly tense between them as they arrived at Mumbo’s apartment, and neither of them said a word as Mumbo opened the door to let them both inside. Taking off their shoes by the door was second nature, a force of habit that had always existed in this place. Grian was a little stiff as he placed his shoes on the rack, in the same spot that he always used, as if being here was a machine that had not been turned on in years, the first few moments followed by creaks and groans as he shook off the rust.
Mumbo set his grocery bag down for a moment to shuck off his coat, hanging it on the coat rack before heading wordlessly to the kitchen to unpack the shopping. It felt strange, knowing that Grian was just down the hall and out of sight – like he was a friend visiting for the first time, that initial guest awkwardness hanging between them – but Mumbo was grateful for the moment’s reprieve nonetheless.
He took a breath, something careful and measured.
From the hallway, Grian called, “Mumbo?”
"Hm?" He paused, unsure of whether he should go back over to Grian to check on him – like he would do if this really was his first time coming over – or if he should trust that Grian was instead familiar enough with the place that it was like a second home to him at one point.
"Should I- maybe hang our coats in the bathroom instead? They're soaking wet…" He asked, nerves still bleeding into his tone.
At least he’s not the only one, Mumbo thought distantly.
"Oh!" He exclaimed. Mumbo hadn't even thought about that, a bit too caught up in the fact that Grian was back at his apartment. "Yes, that'd be really sweet of you if you did."
"Will do then." Grian replied, and Mumbo could hear the smile in his voice.
Mumbo worked diligently as Grian shuffled about down the hall. He could hear him getting hangers out of the closet and shucking the fabric onto them, ready to hook them up over something in the bathroom. Probably the shower rail, Mumbo thought distantly as he put the groceries away, sliding dented cans of beans into the cupboard and shuffling through the bags of fruit that had been dropped. Some of them were too squashed to save, instead being tossed into the bin, but most of them seemed to be in pretty good condition as he rinsed them off in the sink.
He was so focused on sorting out the groceries that he didn’t realise how long it had taken Grian to return to the kitchen until he was finally sidling into place on the other side of the counter. Mumbo paused, puzzled, and opened his mouth to ask what had taken so long.
Then he realised.
Like a spear of ice through his chest, Mumbo realised that Grian must’ve seen that the posters were gone. He must have – after all, the door to the bathroom did go directly into Mumbo's bedroom, and he had a bad habit of leaving the door open. The stark blankness of the walls wasn’t easy to ignore, either.
The posters, the CDs and the photos of them together - they were all gone, and Grian had seen it.
Maybe he-
Grian was fidgeting with the sleeves of his sweater as he stood before Mumbo, eyes downturned and tired. Mumbo found himself lost for words again, unable to think of a single thing to say. Should he offer up an explanation? Should he wait for Grian to make the first move? Did he even want them to get into all of that right now? All of the hurt; the raw, aching wounds in his heart?
When Grian cleared his throat, Mumbo was certain that the cobbled-together peace they had created together was about to fall apart all over again. Their conversations and jokes, the walk to the grocery store and back, the bread – it would have all been for nothing.
Instead, all Grian asked was, "Can I help?"
Huh.
"S-sure,” Mumbo replied, a little dazed.
It felt so strange, a building tension like lightning just about to strike, electricity building in the air. Higher and higher and then- nothing. No accusing words, no hurt shouting.
That shouldn’t have been as shocking to him as it was.
“Okay,” Grian nodded, reaching into the bag to grab the bread.
“Okay,” Mumbo returned to washing the fruit.
And… then they didn't need to speak more. They fell back into quiet, an easy routine of passing things to each other and moving around the room with little effort. Eventually, Mumbo’s anxiety at the changes Grian must have noticed died down, and he was able to breathe just a little easier again. It felt so strange, shifting around each other in the kitchen again; it was still second nature, even after so long apart. Sure, they did bump into each other every once in a while, but even that was familiar.
It was in that moment that Mumbo realised just how tired he was of feeling scared. Of waiting for the other shoe to drop, so shaken in his friendships that it was as if he didn’t remember how to trust anymore.
He was sick of it, of not being able to look Grian in the eyes and trust his intentions. Of not being able to hear him promising to wait, and knowing that he would be there whenever Mumbo returned.
This comfort, this mundane song and dance that they had done so many times before, he missed it more than anything. He missed having a friendship that was easy, so badly that it was like his heart was weeping.
Like this, shifting around each other in the kitchen as Grian eventually put the kettle on to boil and Mumbo set out some tea leaves to steep, he could almost glimpse the way that things had been.
His heart ached for it. He wanted it back so badly, wanted things to return to the way they had been in the past. Wanted the two of them to be the natural duo they always had been.
Then, suddenly, they were sitting on opposite sides of the table, just like they were that night. The momentary comfort had vanished, and instead it all just felt awkward. Far too awkward, far too uncomfortable.
Mumbo's gaze flickered to Grian's, wordless and unsure. Grian stared back, and the unwavering eye contact gave Mumbo an odd sense of deja vu. He tried to push it down, but it just ended up making him slightly nauseous.
Did Grian feel it too? The sickness at the reminder of what happened here before? He must've. Maybe that was why he hadn't started speaking, too afraid that the words from that night would creep their way up his throat, or maybe it was simply because he didn't know what to say.
The silence felt unbreakable, so thick and suffocating that he surely would’ve been able to touch it if he reached out to try.
Mumbo probably should say something, but he didn’t know what. And then-
Then, they were laughing.
For seemingly no reason. Just laughing. It was all so weird, so skewed to the left that he couldn’t help but to smile at the oddness of it all. It just felt so wrong, like biting into an apple and tasting a pear. It was so absolutely, bizarrely wrong. It shouldn't be like that.
Grian shook his head as he cackled at the sheer ridiculousness, his arms wrapping around his stomach as laughter bubbled up from somewhere deep inside the both of them, and suddenly, Mumbo understood that they were on the same page.
Somewhere in their time apart, they'd ended up in sync. They had needed it. They had both needed a break.
Maybe it wasn't enough just yet, but they were both making some progress. It had been a relief to see that Grian was a lot more healthy, it had been a relief to see him smile, and it had been a relief to have him back. Sure, there was still awkwardness, and an odd tension tingling the air, but things felt slightly more right.
And slowly, Mumbo allowed himself to hope. Hope that maybe, this actually would turn out okay. Maybe they'd manage to repair their fractured friendship. He wanted to try. He hoped Grian did too.
Still, there'd be a lot to sort out, and maybe it was too late. Mumbo didn't want to acknowledge that. Not yet.
At that moment, he just wanted to hope.
Even if just for a little while.

More life series pairs I’d like to happen and why I think they could!
(This time there will be repeats and I won’t do everyone I’m incredibly biased)
If I keep doing pairings I have to be right at least once.
Martyn and Jimmy: I love them together so much!! They teamed with the south lands but based on their quiz scores they probably don’t remember (they could totally still team up with each other) I think it would be funny to watch jimmy see Martyn doing lore.
Scar and Lizzie: someone commented them in my last one. I love them together already they interacted twice in last life and it was everything to me. They’d scam everyone probably on a mountain and it would be great. Scar would call her Liz and I’d freak out every time.(<!!!)
I went and looked it was Lolli_Popples
Scott and Impulse: I want impulse to win. I think they’d be such mean girls together. If they were boogeymen they’d just be such jerks about it.
Etho and Grian: etho has to give in at some point. I love when someone makes etho a worse person it’s fun to watch. I want fanart of them for the sillies.
Cleo and Joel: they could be so silly!! Arson duo for real!! They would set fire to the whole server and laugh!!! It would be delightful to watch.
Scar and Mumbo: I have a hard time imagining mumbo teaming with a non buttercup. Karma for grian stealing mumbo in last life when he was going to team with scar!!
If Gem joined I could really see her teaming with Pearl. Also I love them!!! They are the cuties ever. It would popularize the ship, and more sapphic ships in mcyt please I’m begging.
Bonus bigger groups:
Pearl, Ren, and Joel: they are wolves and they bite you and are so pathetic. Just the absolute most pathetic ever. ever.
Cleo, Gem, Pearl, Lizzie, False: way too overpowered but it would be fun to watch!! All girl group!! Which hasn’t happened yet so!! Southlands vibes fr. They don’t trust each other and will betray each other when asked. They’d probably build a castle or something insane and it wouldn’t even be that pretty but it be insane for a death game. The team will never all have full diamonds.

Hihi Mochi you want people to continue sharing songbird insanity with you?
I love it so much, and I eagerly waiting in anticipation for the next chapter of good intentions because HOW ARE THEY GONNA GET OUT OF THERE ALIVE??? Grian coming in clutch mayhaps cause he's lived his whole life without magic. Just don't get hurt again Grian I don't think I can handle anymore guilt.
Cleo as Fae King is so beautiful <3333 I had been hoping it would be them and I screamed in excitement when I saw their name on the page.
Fwhip is a little genius spooky man sneaking in like that. I love the way you're written him this far.
Also Doc <33 the way he just covered for Grian and accepted that eh was undercover but went "👀 okay but you're explaining this to me later" dad vibes. I hope mans doesn't get hurt I don't think I could handle Mumbo's sadness if that Happens /dramatic
Also unrelated to good intentions itself but I love Tubbo and Scar's relationship in songbird's blood and I'm also feeling for Tubbo so hard after finding out that actually hey your dad isn't a human also the supernatural exists and ALSO not only is your dad not human he KILLS people and is THE Grim Reaper.
Also also will Tubbo ever meet Bdubs, the moss man living in his basement? :3
Also Mumbo, Grian and Scar <333 three lonely men in three different ways and they're all coming Together and even though they've got a lot of hurdles to go through they're finding their way to each other. Mumbo and Grian constantly holding hands also makes me so giddy /pos
hehehe yes. YESSSSS >:3c
I have so much lined up in this next chapter that’s MMMMMMMM very tasty. very !!!!!!!!! the idea of the characters not being able to use magic is SUCH a fun idea to me because now they have to be ✨creative✨ about how they handle this. and it’s so exciting because we really are all sitting here like “crap how DO they get out of this???” I’m so excited
I love cleo as fae king for SO many different reasons. all of which I cannot say because spoilers </3 but 🥺 hehe I’m glad I could deliver on the excitement :D
WAHHHHH TY ;w; I don’t have too much experience with fwhip’s character outside of like. seeing him in sausage’s pov in empires. so I’m running with nothing but vibes and a dream LMAO. but ough his character in this upcoming chapter is <3333 he’s got some lines that I think everyone will be so normal about mhm mhm
I’m so glad the dad vibes for doc are coming through SKCKDKCKFK he’s honestly so fun to write emfkdkfk esp with him just accepting grian is under cover So easily like he did. I’m sure he’ll be fine though :>
TUBBO AND SCAR’S DYNAMIC MAKES ME CRY WAHHHHHHH. I have some stuff set up for them in this arc that I’m ;-; about. fr wanna hold tubbo so gently in my hands—his entire world got flipped upside down :( and things are only about to get crazier </3
he technically already has met bdubs :D prior to canon actually starting. but who knows…. Maybe we’ll see them interacting :3c
just in general the three of me make me so :(((( they’re all dealing with their own form of loneliness and wahhhhhh. somehow they all end up gravitating toward one another 🥺 things are. Going to get Tough for them in this arc but they’ll be stronger for it <3

suggestion as someone who knows the Bare Minimum about slay the princess, hear me out:
gempearl au?
I wrote all this ages ago and it was just sat in my drafts for forever so here y'all go:
Oh my god glow dont make me think about this bc ill actually start going feral.
THE LOOPING COULD BE SO INTERESTING WITH GEM'S CANONICAL DIMENSION HOPPING...
Okay. Okay. In depth thoughtd below the cut but it will be both 1. Spoilery 2. Lowkey incomprehensible if you dont know much about the game LMAO
First off, I think Cleo would be the narrator. Why, you ask? Because its MY au and I get to put my blorbos where i want. But if im being fr then its bc she has i think the perfect combo of exhausted britishness, willingness to manipulate and lie, and overall just the Vibe to fit the narrator. Bonus points if they're a fractured version of time witch cleo from WCSMP.
And then... THE VOICES. THIS IS WHAT I IMMEDIATELY SNAG ON. Would the voices be different people, or potentially just alternate versions of Gem? Also yes ive decided gem is the protag and pearl is the princess but thats bc my original knee jerk reaction was "gem is the princess (esmp2 gem was a fave) and pearl is the hero" but then i thought harder and went waittt i love shapeshifter pearl and dimension hopper gem. I can work with that.
Anyway yeah im thinking different people for the voices, but I'd probably give gem her own internal dialogue alongside it bc it'd be less interesting if she was just the vehicle for the plot in this au. I'll probably have her be both the actual 'hero' character and voice of the hero, for simplicity.
The first ones to come to mind are false as the voice of the paranoid, because she is my #1 paranoia rep i love her, and grian as voice of the contrarian bc he fucking would.
Potentially joel as voice of the cheated, or stubborn? If we do bring wcsmp elements in then prismarina would make a great voice of the cheated too LMAO. So, Joel for voice of the stubborn
Scar is Very voice of the opportunist. And obviously the witch is double life pearl. Which is so perfect?? Like goddamn???? Especially bc i love dl sunflower duo. AND THE INTERNAL DIALOGUE VIBE WOULD BE ALMOST LIKE IF GEM AND SCAR WERE ALLIED AGAINST PEARL AT THE END OF SECRET LIFE
Broken is hard to pick a voice for, maybe mumbo? but the tower would Definitely lean into Santa Perla and the farmer god esmp2 stuff. I could see him being like "oh well it would probably be for the best if we just listen to the giant god lady who could crush us, right?"
Hunted... I was unsure for a while but maybe Shrub? Wolf spirit shrub would be rlly fun for that. And ig the beast would be some form of alien s9 pearl? OR we could lean into the more monstery salmon/siren/merfolk s10 pearl stuff
Cold could be Cub, i dont know much about him but he seems very chill and pragmatic enough for me to push to the extreme here
Skeptic... My mind has gone entirely blank for this one... ETHO MAYBE i can see etho for this. I have no idea what pearl version would work for the prisoner though
Smitten....... maybe shelby? Specifically great witch Shelby. Idk i think her whole vibe around katherine could be translated into what we need here. plus i love giving crumbs to yuri rarepairs- OR i could lean into santa perla again here and have it as sausage kinda worshipping an idealised person of the past pearl he loved (though not romantically, to me at least), which could work for a damsel variant?
anyway i dont wanna get Super into the major spoilers for stp so i wont elaborate much further, but goddd im so normal about this concept

I respect that you have concerns about possible homophobia behind criticism of Scott, but your post about it used some inaccurate information.
Grian cheating is actually a recurring plot point in many desert duo fanfics. It isn't ignored. The difference is that when discussing the CCs, Grian's cheating was actually a result of wanting to switch up his content (Double Life happened after a post on the Hermitcraft subreddit where Grian was criticized for always grouping up with Scar and Mumbo), while behavior towards Jimmy often doesn't have as clear of an OOC reason for it.
Furthermore, Scott isn't the only one who gets flack for how he treats Jimmy - to use a recent example, people had major issues with Sausage's behavior towards Jimmy in Minecraft SOS. To use an older example, Jimmy had to reassure chat in one of his Raft streams that he was okay with how Grian, Joel, and fWhip (all married to women) were treating him, and even repeated that reassurance when he cut it down into a shorter video.
It's also important to note that Scott isn't the only LGBTQ content creator in the MCYT sphere. Joey Graceffa is gay; Lizzie, Gem, and Cleo are bi; Shubble is ace. You also make assumptions in your post that Pearl is straight, which we don't know for sure, as she's private about her personal life. While she has a boyfriend (at least I'm pretty sure he's a boyfriend), she often refers to him as a roommate instead of a boyfriend, and she could very well be bi/pan or ace. We don't know, and assuming people are straight as default can cause issues.
i kkmow scott isnt the only queer one brother ive been into mcyt since i was 10 i dont need u to explain to me who is and isnt queer im an og lizzie fan😭
firslty man saying that grian thing is. stupid. im sorry. no, saying there is a reason grajn as the person didnt wanna group up w scar so his character cheating makes sense yet scott who explained why he didnt wanna team up w pearl and instead went w cleo but u claim there was no real reason to do that even tho rp reasons is just as fine of a reason is just. strange. ike even if scott did it just bc he wanted to for no other reason than teasing jimmy that doesnt justifiy making him out to be an abuser or making posts anaylizing how he makes jimmy uncomfortable/is weird to jimmy specifically which ive Seen Multiple. scott and jimmy have always had a bit of a rivalryand its just fucking weisd ppl make out scotts teasing as inherently toxic yet say nothing about grian or joels teasing
also ive never seen grian vilinized or made scars abuser if this is a common hc its not one ive seen, just unpacking the cheating is not the same thing as making grian scars abuser or making him clearly seen as negative all portrayls Ive Personally seen paint grian in a sympathetic light and the fandom as a whole does that in general w bad actions grian does. pretending its of a similar caliber is just strange considering how blorbofied grian is and how ppl r convinced scott is literally maliciouly trying to hurt jimmy In Real Life like dude be so fucking fr rn
ill admit i dont watch sos nor raft streams but im calling out ppl who r calling scott specifically abusive and ive literally never seen anyone as vilinized as scott in fics i can think off the top of my head 3 fics ive seen where scott is the vilian and portrayed as jimmys abuser which is NOT true for anyone u mentioned. if u havent seen this i understand u might think jimmy expressing boundaries about his friends is the same thing which is a valid point to bring up but im specifically pointing out how it is normalized tto have scott specifically be an abuser or cruel villian which is NOT the same as fans expressing concern over if some ppl r going too far w the bit. thats fine genuinely
ur right i did assume about pearl i shouldn't have i dont rlly watch her thats also on me but also doesn't take away the point i was saying. literally her being bi aroace or even a lesbian does not take away the point i made about reducing her character to the violent female hysteria but also tragic victim of scott. as an agender aroace lesbain...buddy i know straight aint the default. when i talk about misogyny and homophobia the point is the misogyny and homophobia. im sorry i called someone who hasnt come out at all yet straight i dont assume someone is queer until proven otherwise bc thats just weird to assume. i just literally never saw pearl included in queer mcyt creator talks ever but assuming she isnt straight doesnt change literally anything about the mysongy or weird homophobua that only scott is portrayed in a negative light for actions he does in double life

this episode has given us so much headcanon food what???
we got:
-grian calling chickens his family (THE AVIAN AGENDAAAAA)
-the whole mumscarian buttercup petname
-grian putting eyes over doc's base to tell him that they're watching him. are you kidding me?????? THE WATCHERS????? grian will never escape the watcher lore
-falling sand crashing grian's game. IS THAT A 3RD LIFE REF- 💥but fr though like his brain just shuts down whenever he sees scar and sand-
-also i'm like pretty sure that the size of the eyes he made is the same size as the evo watcher symbol. might be wrong on this tho
-he never left his hippie phase ITS BACK WOO
-also only serves to prove my point that mumbo has rsd

(I’ve been reading too much angst for DL Scarian. I need something else before I spiral… again)
Cw: Possession and Possessive
This is a idea I’ve had for a while with Demon Scar and Mortal Grian. Grian Iives I’m a supposed haunted house with his roommates. And Scar has taken a liking to the pretty man
-
Ghost and demons weren’t real. Grian tried to ignore the strange things happening in the home. Mumbo just forgot something or the footsteps were Impulse. Or the door closing was actually Pearl messing with him.
It wasn’t anything else. Nothing strange was going on here. Grian didn’t believe in things like that. But the others were experiencing it too. It wasn’t just him. And Pearl swore it lived in the basement. Where they found that pentagram and sanded it off the floor.
It was nothing, sure someone had tried to summon something but it wasn’t real. Grian swallowed, the footsteps up from the basement again, he was home alone. Just the house settling. So he went to check on it going down to the basement, to prove it was no one.
Then he shivered, when did it get cold? Grian took a breath and saw fog from how cold it was. Then a hand touched his shoulder, he jumped turning to see who it was. A rush of cold again… no one was there.
Yet… Grian stood there, staring at the ground. Hands on his shoulders, clawed and long. “Stay with me.” The voice purred into his arm.
The cold spreading up to his feet and legs, hugging his body. Sliding up slowly, Grian felt cold, yet didn’t want to move.
“Good boy… stay still, let me in.” It was in his head now. Grian should be afraid but all he felt was calm, so very calm. There was a pause, Grian found himself staring at the wall now.
Then his arms moved but… he wasn’t moving them. He couldn’t move them. As his fingers and hands moved against his will “hmmm, been a long time since I’ve had a body.” His voice says, but he didn’t say that!
His hands rub his arms and chest and down. Looking over every inch of himself. “Nice. I think I’ll enjoy this body.” The thing in him laughs then pauses “As for you, pretty bird, just relax and let me do the talking and walking. You’re mine now.”
Grian could only watch as he moves upstairs and went back to work. The thing in him piloting his body around easily.
Oh no… what has he done!?
Damn why can I have a demon take over my body and do everything for me? Grian so lucky.. Lmao OKAY BUT FR THIS IS GOOD. I love me some demonic possession, having like a demon and the mortal fall in love meanwhile.. Ugh I lvoe it
Grian slowly becoming to love this quirky demon possessing him, kinda liking having a step back from doing things..

ask game!! tell me about 'won’t you think of me once in a while' please!! :D
why i am so happy you asked! it is a space war au (heavily inspired by the worldbuild in the halo game series)
this au is like. child soldier grown up and regaining some stolen memories. had an extensive chapter about grian just being bad at his job. oh and skizz is an AI in impulse's helmet. scar's only in the military bc he got busted for 1 too many times. grian's a kind of dummy trooper, no specialized skills compared to pearl or impulse or scar, but he's one of the few survivors left on this entire planet bc he was left behind! and so was a certain scientist mumbo jumbo who thinks a key turnin point in their war is living at the heart of the planet (spoiler alert: yea it's gem. gemini slay fr.) iskall is also a soldier who gets his shit wrecked and saved by an alien stress.
here's a lil snippet: (this was my only slash lh snippet i could share. the whole folder is pure angst. no one's having a good time)
“Commander,” Jimmy interrupts with a short bow of his head, “I promise I’ll do my best. I’ve got no intentions of dying.” 
Cleo’s lips are pressed into a thin line. Jimmy would kill to know what else is eating away at them, what Cleo must know that he doesn’t. 
“But neither does Grian. Or any of the rest of us. I’m saying sorry for what you’ve lost, not what you will,” Jimmy corrects cooly, eyes flashing when a man in a higher-up uniform chooses that moment to walk up to them and intrude on their private conversation. 
“Rookie, you don’t need to suck up to the Commander, they’re not gonna let you stay,” Joel teases, low and cruel, and Jimmy glares daggers at him. 
“Aye, get, I’m not sucking up--” 
“Boys,” their Commander interrupts before they can dive into an argument. “Joel, shut up.” Jimmy’s already trying to spit out another curse or maybe even a thank you when Cleo tacks on, “And Jimmy, you have more to worry about than me. Focus on yourself, your skills aren’t much better than Grian’s.”

🐭 for the askgame but in the way of "omg i love seeing this person pop up on my dash and their blog is an actual masterpiece and i admire them which makes me feel a teeny tiny bit intimidated just cause i don't want to seem like a complete wuss yet here i am rambling about this to you at 5.30am with no regrets" kind of good (?) intimidating if you get what i mean (call me mumbo jumbo the way i anxiously ramble and cant sit still while doing it all the time) (also call me grian the way i get giddy whenever we interact as if you were mumbo jumbo himself) (does this make sense? im not sure)
ashy i fucking adore u LMFAO every ask from u is a delight fr. also, for reference: me sending asks/DMs to any of my mutuals is a disaster, i take forever to write something that won't make y'all think i'm a total dweeb and sometimes i'm just like "fuck it we ball" and hit send anyway LMFAOOO
(it makes sense and i am giggling and kicking my lil feet about it !! same hat !!!!)

Every time I think I’m insane about Mumbo Jumbo Grian proves me wrong
This man is No1 Mumbo fan head over heels heels over head down bad whipped silly goofy heart eyed brain gone simping attention seeking needy gf dead on floor revived kicking his feet giggling writing love poetry blushing stupid goo goo eyed heart skipping beats in love desperate yearning pining cartoon love hearts all day every day every hour every second for one mustochio gentleman
Mumbo thinks he knows how insane Grian is over him HE’S WRONG HE’S SO WRONG HE IS WRONG IN EVERY WAY not because it’s not obvious (it’s so obvious bestie) but because even Mumbo’s overestimates are underestimates regarding Grian lol tho that c b tru for all of the ppl in love w Mumbo……..
Grian is fighting killing stabbing for the position of Nomebe1 Mumbol lover tho. Fighting off everyone else. ‘Secretly’ (he’s so obvious bestie). Like I think ur G n Doc have the most obv rivarly over Mumbo (‘secretly’ (they’re so obvious bestie) but Grian’s fr so fighting egen1 else too lmaoooo this man is so jealous n yet so simping at the eame time
It’s so obvious bestie im betting at least 1 other hermit decided go piss G off aboi it by cosying up to Mumbo n then realised oh I see why Grian is so obsessed w u now fuckin WHOOPS </3
N Grian oats them on the back like ‘there there u got it we got it we all get it ok here’s our support group but also reestabloshes his claim over the num1 Mumbo gf title
Will Mumbo ever find out about this LOL NO Grian would perish and a Mumbo would still never know the extent of his insanity no one does not even the other hermits at this point the pesku bird is GONE GONEFUHFYDYD
So o7 to Grian. I might b a big Mumbo fan but Grian puts his own heart lovingly secretly (obviously) on a leash for Mumbo to hold n Mumbo doesn’t even know about it LOL /lh
(Also ty for keepin my other asks in ur invox AAWWWWWWWW that’s spcuttte bestie!!!!! Got be fr rn I legit thought tumblr had eated them LOL so ty for lettin me know gim o7 o7)
- 🌱 Anon
Jsiajasbwhdwkdi all of these are just so true though. For this current season I think Gem would be the funniest hermit to try and prank Grian but'll end up falling herself (Scar had his time during season 8 [oh Martyn did it as well during last life lmao]).
Honestly at this point I'm tempted to change my blog title to "#2 Mumbo fan (no one can beat Grian)" and just call it a day.

Screaming, crying, dying inside, aaaaaaaaaa the Pearl and Grian convo was so BAD, HELPPPP
I mean, it was good in the sense that you wrote it masterfully, but IT'S A MESS omg
You're right, you did make it worse than Mumbo and Grian argument, dear heavens aboveeeee
I just wanna pick all of the characters in the fic by the scruff of their neck, like a bunch of kittens, and give 'em a lil shake. Just a lil. Hopefully enough to knock some sense into them, just enough to make them realise... I dunno, the value of trust and open communication? Mayhaps?
They all have so much emotional baggage, they end up (metaphorically) tripping over the suitcases on the floor, smh
~🌠
PS On a more personal note, congrats on getting your dream job!!! I hope you love it there ^.^
(Also, I too had a BNHA phase a few years back, so it amuses me greatly to know that you decided to get an editor job bcuz of being a beta-reader for a fic from that fandom lol/pos)
STAR ANON HELLO!!!! :D
Oh my gods yeah the Pearl+Grian convo is a wreck fr, they are both so fucked up and im really glad people found the dynamic and behavior i portrayed with them to be interesting and like, smth that hit really well. Truly, just writing that convo felt like continually getting hit in the face with a spiked baseball bat; i cant even begin to imagine what that was like as a reader 💀💀💀💀💀
Thank you so much for the congratulations!!! Waking up to that email was like the world's best glitter bomb to the face AKDNAKDJKSKS i was so excited and shocked. And YEAH absolutely buckwild that bnha got me into the editing profession. I never wouldve guessed that bnha fanfic would lead to an entire career for me 😂😂😂😂😂
