#i love scarland so so so much man

[made-nondescript]

Yes okay!!!!!! Continued under the cut :]

^ Roughly labeled map to just give you an idea of what Currently Exists and where it is! Anything off to the sides that isn't marked isn't part of the park or will be added to the park later :]

The Most Important Thing is that Scarland, like Disneyland, takes the Theme part of "Theme park" very seriously! That's the main way it differs from something like Six Flags. That means that everything in the park should, theoretically, service the "storytelling" of the park as much as being functional.

Also while I'll be saying "is" or "are" a lot what I'll be meaning most of the time is there will be or it can be inferred there is.

Main Street

The main Vibe here is vaguely historical fantasy. Every building looks like it's from a different era and they each serve a variety of in-congruent purposes. On the street itself you can find a variety of street vendors selling out of those rolley carts stuff like snacks and balloons. There are two varients of Jellie themed ice cream, one a bar and the other a popcicle, and there's also popcorn and the slushies !!

^ Popcorn store

This is also the main shopping area of the park! Gift shops and eateries will be sprinkled through out but there's a concentration of them here. This includes a clock/jewelry shop, a pizza shop, a candy shop, a magic shop, and so on. There is also a theatre which I have no choice but to assume shows the HotGuy films and a Hotel!

^ Bookshop combination coffee shop!

^ Hotel - lots of marble, perhaps very clean feeling? just a really nice hotel

^ Souvenir Jellie ears (headband variant) and the interior of a clothing store.

All of the buildings are "facades," meaning one continuous shell. Only some of the buildings are open while others only appear to be full. There will be stuff in the windows, but no interior because the space might be used for storage or something else! In the actual Minecraft park, these spaces are mostly dedicated to Scar's storage system with only a few actually open, including a hotel and two merch/confectionery stores.

There is a warden in the park - not placed there by Scar. (I want to say it was Tango? But I can't remember for sure!) It's in one of the towers (the one with the teal roof). And yes! it Can hurt you through the wall! His name is Alan. :]

Nothing like this exists in the park currently (except for the hotel?) but Disneyland does have/had an in-park apartment where Walt would stay occasionally. It never had a bed but what I'm saying here is it's not insane for Scar to theoretically live in his own theme park.

Back Stage

This is where the ugly stuff is! The back of buildings ARE accessible and are very grey/industrial compared to the "stage" of the park. Entrances to this area are hidden behind foliage or painted to match the colors of the walls. Just anything to keep them out of site of guests!

Back here includes: extra vendor carts, potted trees and flowers, vehicles, extra ride components (incl. an elephant from Jungle Cruise and trains!!!), garage access to the inside of the building, and the garbage disposal! The walls are covered in pipes.

Scar hasn't said anything about including this specifically BUT it would make a really good plot device potentially so I'll mention it: Disney has a network of tunnels running under the park which cast members (aka, anyone working at the park, regardless of job) can use to get places without running into guests. Included in the tunnels are storage room and dressing rooms.

Planter Circle Area

This is where the spoof of the Partners statue is!!! Scar holding Jellie's hand :]] The trees are outfitted with tiny electric lights to give the impression of fireflies <- important for Vibes

Surrounded by benches and more planters full of Lots of flowers.

Castle

It sounds like the castle will be more of a hallway than a formal building as far as he's said? It will have a drawbridge for entry and I'm guessing will give you passage to the rest of the fantasy area.

The moat/lagoon underneath IS deadly and not at all spawn proof. He described the drowns spawning there as “very advanced audio animatronics” which are there to provide a “sense of foreboding.” So. Do with That what you will.

^ deadly lagoon that looks sooo not OSHA compliant

Stuff That's Not There Yet

There will for SURE be a space themed area - this is Scar we're talking about. He's even mentioned it already in passing. It will probably be more Galaxy's Edge adjacent (which is the Star Wars themed area of Disneyland) rather than like Tomorrowland, which is more retro-futurism at this point. Sausage already built him a ship/plane to put there!!

The only other land I can recall him mentioning is "adventure land" which I think he was talking about Frontierland? Or California Adventure? Either way I think we can expect something very Indiana Jones inspired like his main Minecraft skin.

^ here's a completely speculative map based on if this is laid out like Disneyland is, which it might not be! There might also be Micro Lands akin to Disney's New Orleans's Square or Toon Town but he hasn't mentioned anything like that.

That's everything I could think to mention while skimming the relevant episodes!!! So Much still to come... Basically anything that would be sick as hell would feel at home in the setting.

And! there's enough here that you could make it Evil and sinster as well. As mentioned, the warden and lagoon are very deadly and there are a few more mobs scattered throughout. I think there's still a named endermite running around? For some reason? Just to bite at Scar's ankles and remind him he's alive I guess. But !! there's range here

HI i heard you are interested in knowing more about scarland for Non-Threatening purposes. i am very intrigued by these "purposes" and would like to help!! what would be most useful for you to know? whats the biggest mystery to you? :O --made-nondescript

Hello there mutual. I need to.......understand.......Scarland. You feel? I know. Nothing. of Disney/theme parks in general I have Only ever been to Six Flags. And I want to use Scarland as the basis for settings in some fics and like. Listen. I want to watch Scar's s9 but i am actively watching grian's s8 for the first time rn and rewatching the life series and im restarting etho's singleplayer so. One day, but today is not that day, and I wanna get jiggy w it like NOW. ya feel. ya dig. What's the vibe, whats the plan, ya know? how would one describe it - just like. As much detail as to Canon Scarland as I can get my grubby little mitts on.

[solargeist]

With the whole Hermits babysitting Xelqua thing i-

I just couldn't help but imagining Grian like...from a distance...staring...

Or

Xelqua trowing a tamtrum because he wants to spend the whole day on ScarLand and Grian won't let him lol

oh man lol, yeah the first time he asked Hermits to babysit, he probably kept checking in, stressed out.

Xelqua would absolutely throw a tantrum when he’s not getting his way, he’d love Scarland so much !!

He stays all day running Grian around, Scar lets him on rides for free.

Xelqua gets upset when Grian tries to tell him they have to leave, it’s closing ! But Xelqua just… changes the time of day, see now it’s ok to stay ? Grian puts him in timeout.

Doc wakes up slowly. He's had a lovely night of sleep, cozy in bed, dreaming of fantastical misuses of withers. Hotguy gave him an autograph and personally thanked him for finally blowing up Scarland's sound system and getting one over on anyone who might make a button. For some reason, Scar's alien from season six was also there, and then it exploded. That was pretty great too. And everyone had clapped for him, and told him he was the best, most important creeper in the world, and that all of his enemies were just haters, and that they would absolutely listen to all of his opinions, which were perfect, always. And they covered the Hermitcraft server in fresh, ripened tomatoes, and everyone helped him garden them.

It really was a lovely dream. He didn't particularly want to wake up, except perhaps to tell everyone about all of the aforementioned perfect opinions. But alas, even after a perfect, lovely, cozy night of sleep, mad doctors must wake up--

--and scream, as a menacing figure holding a knife looms over his bed. He throws a punch at whoever the person is before thinking and hisses, overestimating his strength and knocking them over. He scrambles for his light.

"Owww," says someone from the floor. Wait.

Doc peers over the edge of his bed. "Grian? What on earth are you doing, man?"

"Almost falling on my knife. You know, this is harder than I thought it would be," Grian says. He is holding his knife in one hand and cradling his now very crooked, bleeding nose with the other. Doc would feel bad, but... ehhh, it's Grian. Who had been standing over his bed with a knife. He probably deserved it for... something or other, Doc'll figure it out.

"You need help?" Doc asks.

"Right. No. Let's get back to this," Grian says, standing up and brandishing the knife again. The effect is much less frightening now that the lights are on, there's blood dripping down the front of Grian's sweater, and it's clear Grian is a bit uncertain of how to look intimidating. "I need you to know Mumbo only has one best friend."

Doc blinks.

"...okay, man?" Doc says.

"What?" Grian says.

"Yeah, like, I don't know what you're talking about. Mumbo and I sometimes talk about redstone, but--"

"You talk about redstone? How dare you! Mumbo is mine, you hear? Mine!"

Doc blinks again, slower. He considers pinching himself. This would be an odd addition to an otherwise lovely, perfect dream, but dreams can become weird nightmares pretty quickly, you know? That would explain why Grian's doing whatever this is.

"I mean, I don't know, he normally comes to me about it?" Doc says.

"Cheater..." Grian says.

"What?" Doc says.

"I can't believe you two! Guh! That was my offended noise!" Grian says.

"Look, uh, I don't really understand what you're doing here man--"

"I'm warning you off of Mumbo! I heard around the block you're his best friend now, so I'm going to kill you now unless you stop that."

Doc squints. "With the knife?" he asks.

"Yes, with the knife!"

"And why am I his best friend?" Doc asks.

"You got the crown! Mumbo said whoever got the purple crown would be his best friend! That's not allowed, only I'm allowed to be his best friend! So I'm, I'm being all threatening! And stuff! Please tell me I'm being threatening," Grian says. "It's been a while since I had to do something like this, I'm modeling off of a different guy I knew, but you know, it's very important to me that you're warned off properly! So there!"

Doc looks at Grian for a while.

"Yeah, uh, man, sure. I'm... really threatened," he says.

"Really?" Grian says.

"Yeah. Really. Very threatened. Hey, uh, my elevator buttons are Grian-proof, supposedly, but I don't know if--"

"Are you--are you trying to distract me by offering me buttons? I'll have you know that doesn't work anymore! Not when it comes to Mumbo!" Grian says. "Although. Hypothetically. If you were telling me there were buttons I could press that you think wouldn't have consequences no matter what I did. That sounds like a challenge."

"Yeah, man, I mean, uh. No. Don't press my buttons--"

"Gotta go bye," Grian says, very quickly, and he shoots out of Doc's bedroom. Doc stares after him through the door.

"I'm going back to fucking bed," Doc says, because frankly, this has convinced him he doesn't need to be awake. And also a security system. A security system that can roast pesky birds. He's sure he can come up with something. Mm. Roast bird. He falls back asleep, vaguely convinced he'd dreamed up the whole incident.

(In the morning, he finds a very grumpy Grian stuck in his elevator. Well. He supposes having to fix it is worth the expression on Grian's face there.)

[modernsuperhero]

Btw ages ago I came up with a Scarian au where Scar is of course the mayor of a lovely city. He's quite wealthy too - before his venture into politics he designed the very successful Scarland theme park, which rejuvenated the city's economy and boosted his own pockets too. He's very active in the community and generally beloved by the people.

He is also secretly HotGuy, the city's vigilante superhero, using his wealth from Scarland and his connections as mayor to try to untangle the mess of corruption and organized crime throughout the city! And also like, saving cats from atop trees and things if he happens to come across those too. The city however has recently become host to a deathly parasite, the lethally beautiful Mother Spore. Because she's an independent villain, HotGuy has no way to anticipate her attacks and just has to drop everything when she starts to try to take over another city block or something.

However, HotGuy is not the only person running around the city with a mask and a dream! There's one character who's known just as much for his menace as for his heroism: Poultry Man! Poultry Man may not be a villain, but far be it from him to veer away from pranks or minor shoplifting. HotGuy has chased him down after catching him egging buildings or nicking treats he didn't pay for, but he's also shown up to help HotGuy pull survivors out of the water when there was a terrible bridge collapse, or help break up fights that start to get too violent.

And then, of course, there's the final masked figure in HotGuy's career: his sidekick, CuteGuy! He simply appeared one day, kitted out in military grade weapons and body armor spray-painted pink and white, complete with frills and bows and bullets, asking how he can help. HotGuy is skilled at combat and firing his bow, but CuteGuy is on another level. For some reason, he follows HotGuy's every command to a T, never taking the lead despite obviously having extensive experience. Despite his compliance, he refuses to discuss his past or identity.

Somehow, though, none of these three characters are ever in the same place. If Mother Spore is ravaging a street, Poultry Man doesn't make a peep, and CuteGuy never comes to HotGuy's aid. Poultry Man always gets away with his pilfered knickknacks before CuteGuy arrives, and so on and so forth. And you see, Scar is no fool. He knows all three's secret identities - or rather, identity.

[More under cut]

It is none other than one of Scar's long-time friends and neighbor: Grian.

Grian has known Scar since his dreams for Scarland were nothing more than doodles in his teenage sketchbook. He adores knitting, baking, and taking his cats (however unwillingly) on walks outside. Scar moved into the mayoral home when he was elected, but he still owns his old house right next door to Grian's. Grian is a cheery architect who proudly boasts about being Scar's friend.

And Scar has no doubt in his mind he is also secretly terrorizing the innocent people around him, and that he has both attempted to kill, protect, and annoy Scar as HotGuy on countless occasions.

...Okay, he doesn't know WHY Grian is doing that, or... how, but it HAS to be him! He swears all of their voices are the same, and even with the different masks on they all look exactly like him! And, he's never seen any two of them in one place! Scar is sure Grian's innocent civilian facade is nothing more than that.

It also explains some things: Mother Spore's flirtatious remarks whenever they fight, Poultry Man's annoying cackling when he leads Scar on another chase across town, and CuteGuy's insistence on keeping him alive and following him like a shadow.

Grian and Scar used to be close. But as Scar's life got more complicated, he had less and less time to spend with his friends.

As baffling as it is, Scar is certain that while he was gone Grian became a supervillain of epic proportions, and he's probably only just begun toying with HotGuy and the rest of the city for his own amusement.

...

The truth is Scar is completely wrong!

Grian, Mother Spore, Poultry Man, and CuteGuy are, legitimately, four different people (or entities, looking at Mother Spore) who have never met.

Or, well, that depends on your definition of "met". :)

[mochiwrites]

STOP I CANT WITH THIS MOCHI PLEASE 😭😭😭😭😭 pls more secret husbands 🥺 /nf

more secret husbands for you!! :D <3

season 9. ohhhh season 9.

grian loves scar’s elven tree. he also really loves his long hair <333 sometimes when he’s bored and they’re relaxing, grian will start braiding scar’s hair just because. scar always really enjoys it, he gets really relaxed and becomes jello against grian

god the looty and booty conversations… scar calls grian’s booty “adequate” one time as a joke and this man Never lets scar live it down. “gonna say it adequate again, dearest?” “griaaaan, it was one time! you know I love your beautiful booty! it’s amayzin’!”

I. Cannot believe I just wrote those words. ANYWAYS

they do the villager stuff with tango, and poor tango is third wheeling the Whole time. by now they know their friends are trying to set them up together, so their goal to mess with them is in effect. rip tango

the diamond pillar war… the fact that it started between scar and grian is so ???? look, they’re grossly in love and are absolute sweethearts. but they’re also the most competitive bastards with each other. it’s a part of their love language

scar has accompanied grian on many diamond hunting trips so he can make his tower bigger, and vice versa

when the hotguy thing starts… everyone is incredibly surprised by how accurate of a shot scar is — with the exception of grian, who knows how scar even got those accurate shooting skills. I think there’s a moment where he checks in with scar, just to make sure he’s okay and it feels alright. which has scar melting, pulling grian in by his waist and kissing his forehead, “I’m feeling a-okay, sweetheart. thank you for checking”

grian is very quickly exasperated by hotguy

when they go to the end together and scar kills him, he feels horrible. he didn’t mean for grian to lose all his stuff! he immediately heads home to meet grian in the overworld and help him with whatever he needs. he kinda follows grian around like a kicked puppy — except he’s the one who kicked himself. grian, while annoyed and a bit frustrated, takes scar’s face in his hands and promises that it’s alright, give him a few minutes to cool off

after their end busting trip there is a very long cuddle session

when grian starts having issues making progress on his mega base, he hides out in scarland a lot more. in fact, they’re in scarland for most of the season. the main reason is because grian wants to experience as much of scar’s dream with him as he can, and scarland is more polished and complete than grian’s rocks are

when building the scarland castle, scar consults grian a lot for block palettes, gradients, general building ideas. grian is his personal cheerleader through the whole thing

grian is also really clingy with scar while mumbo is off world. outside of scar, mumbo is very close with grian. after he crashed into mumbo’s redstone world, the two of them bonded a lot. they almost instantly became best buds. mumbo is grian’s second emotional support guy. he’s also been a constant in grian’s life since he joined hermitcraft (something he’s not used to having outside of scar) so grian misses him a lot, and with a member of his flock gone, he gets clingier with the others

scar doesn’t mind all that much, he loves a clingy grian — he’s always told grian not to be afraid to ask for things with him, and grian being clingy is a result of that. it makes scar happy to see (and maybe after losing him for two years or so, scar is a little clingy too)

grian bounces building ideas around with scar whenever he gets stuck on his base. sometimes the two of them will go there together and see what they can throw around

THE FUED WITH DOC…. it’s really funny because these two really are each other’s worst enablers. scar hasn’t been sleeping because he’s been stressing with building and hiding it so grian doesn’t worry about him. but that’s thrown out the window during grian’s intervention with his base. and then they’re flying to doc’s tunnel bore and oh god they’re in so much trouble. they hide together in scarland and start making evacuation plans to hide in their apartment in hypixel

and I’ll end this with: in between every season, with the exception of the jump between season 8 and 9, the two of them go back to their hypixel apartment with jellie and spend their breaks there <3

Hermit-a-Day May (Day 3 // Favorite Build)

I mean it has to be Scarland. I've been a huge disney parks nerd since I was little and Scar puts so much passion, love, and detail into his builds. It's been so fun to watch it come to life.

Joe Hills' pinball machine and Grian's magical alleyway from Season 8 are right up there with it. But I ran out to time! At least I have this recent Saarland piece to use. These hermits are so dang creative, man.

If you saw me post this a day too early no you didn't

[dumpsterfiree-art]

Man I haven’t posted here in a WHILE. But my @scarland-artbook came in yesterday !! I adore it so much, and the bonus print and stickers was lovely ^^

[stiffyck]

I've had this writing for awhile now and I apologize that it's long

At first, Scar thought having this superhero identity would be a fun idea. He never expected it to become a problem for him or any other Hermits. Scar was confused as to why he couldn't remember hours in a day or even days in a month. He only got more confused when Hermits would come to him asking about why they were being "HotGuyed". Scar tried to brush it off, but it was just a thing that bothered him so much.

It was a day when Scar woke up early and got an early start to working on Scarland. He was looking at building, trying to figure out what needed to be added.

Jellie meowed as she was sitting next to him. "I know, right? Something is clearly missing!" Scar talked to the cat. Scar kept thinking, and then he straightened his back. After being in a zombie apocalypse and two Life games, Scar sort of delvoped a sense of knowing when he wasn't alone.

He didn't hear someone call out his name or hear the sound of rockets. It was early morning but not dark enough for mobs to spawn.

"Hello, Scar." Someone spoke from beside him. The voice sounded familiar, it was very much like his own. Scar turned his head to see himself in his HotGuy uniform and obviously very Vex like. It was a bit odd to see HotGuy having Vex features because that's not at all how Scar originally imagined HotGuy. The man grinned, a wicked grin. A grin that was of someone who is villain like and not a hero.

"It's been a while. How about we have a little chat?" HotGuy questioned as he threw an arm around Scar’s shoulder. It felt more like a demand because Scar couldn’t do anything but nod.

FOAMING AT THE MOUTH I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS CONCEPT

[lavendernlilac]

Ahahahahaha. Do you have anything to say about secret husbands on this blog. Hahaha . wink wink nudge nudge

I’ve got a few different thoughts to share 👀

first of all, scar being handsy and flirty? definitely translates to the bedroom. by the time he’s done with foreplay he’s got grian trembling like a leaf under him. this man Cannot keep his hands to himself. at all. he has to touch every inch of grian that he can. and he’s practically singing grian’s praises the whole time

he knows how needy his love is and he makes it his number one goal to give him as much attention as he wants

they’re both very weak to praise, though grian found out about his own weakness to it by accident. scar feels like the type to me to already know that sort of thing. but grian is so boisterous and confident that praise? him? nah

scar calls him a good boy one (1) time and grian makes the most pathetic noise

mycelium resistance? they may leave the actual “war” outside the door, but there’s certainly been a few occasions where mother spore faced some discipline from the mayor

I think they almost got caught once by bdubs — they both liked the thrill of it

grian loves teasing scar, it’s payback for the desert. he likes being able to press his buttons and see just how long it’ll take him to crack. it’s something that’s definitely gotten him down on his knees quite a few times

oh, and when grian goes to scar to keep him from starting a resistance? scar does not hesitate to pull him into his lap and feel him up, got him all excited and took him right there in scarland. resistance successfully prevented

[bipbopdepmop]

man I love hermitcraft. just. there's so much love in it, at the end of the day. its a conversation a connection a partnership between creators and creations. every block is planned and placed with thought and care. every build has a story. countless hours, days, weeks are poured into the planning and the gathering and the building and the recording and editing and releasing. if you follow the season from beginning to end, you watch the story get written and there's something so special about that.

just. take a moment. remember the stories.

see, scarland, years in the making, a dream made reality. a magical, whimsical place of colours and brimming with life! as grian put it, everything you make contains a part of your soul. and it's so full of light and goodness, vibrance and energy.

see, decked out two, dungeon of doom and terror. the ravagers and the wardens and the vex and even good ol one eyed willie. see the redstone, tangled and infinite and moving and changing. see the citadel itself, see the games they played. the final runs, the group stumbling after each other, laughing and dying and hunting and dying and laughing, laughing, laughing.

see the museums, standing tall and proud. light and dark, cluttered and open. king's reign, empires, the whole history of two years at your fingertips, meticulously gathered and collected. see the hidden secrets and stories all waiting for us to explore.

see the pinball machine, every block placed to scale. see the exterior, galaxies hand-picked by eye and a photo.

see the charity stream area, the minigames they played and the chairs they sat in. see how much money they raised, how many people they helped.

see the ugly as sin starter house, and remember.

see the minigames, bin-go and blood on the clocktower and false's elytra course and the blue river raceway and countless others that I'm sure I'm forgetting.

the bases. all the bases. bdubs and his amazing builds, straight out of a painting. doc and his massive perimeter, walls depicting ancient myths, telling ancient stories. grian and his rift, bringing us to other lands, other stories. scar and scarland, oh scarland, the stuff of hopes and dreams. cleo's atlantis and jevin's castle and xisuma's skull and impulse's dwarven forge and gem's elven palace and pearl's alien landscape and false's amazing castle and stress and iskall's western area and keralis's amazing city and zedaphs wacky zany zedvancements and so many more.

and a note on grian's signs of affirmation in his finale. see the care and respect the hermits have for each other. hermits helping hermits, both the group and the action.

the king storyline, the resistance assistance, the soup group! empires crossover, the pranks, the secret santa, all the events! decked out opening, again, the charity stream!!! friends of hermitcraft, skizz and martyn and even that one guy, hbomb, coming to play. make-a-wish visits. the buttercups vs. doc and the great filling of the perimeter. the button! alive to the end. the TCG!!! jevin's egg hunt. tango's astral library, and the nether tunnel system, more efficient than ever before!

hermitcraft is a love letter to art and creation, to friends (family). and above all it's a love letter to us. the viewers. without us it wouldn't be possible, at the scale it is today.

I love hermitcraft and I hope you do too. the hermits love hermitcraft. and they love you too.

this post came around again on my dash and it is a nice end bit to this: a message from scar.

[rachiecrown]

(also if you saw me post this under the wrong ask no you didn't)

---

Mumbo was falling behind. At least, that's how he felt. Everyone else was so far on with their bases, heck, even Decked Out Two was close to being finished, and here Mumbo sat with a deepslate and copper box and a half-done outline he was not very satisfied with.

He paced around the path that floated around his bamboo farm. He loved the color pallete, he loved the idea of having some sort of multi-tired building full of fully automated farms and whatever else his little engineer heart desired, and he loved the idea of it looking like a more impressive version of his vault, but something about it just felt incorrect to him.

Maybe it was the floating water pillars.. Or was the copper variant not oxidized enough? What if the floor beneath the bamboo farm was too different? What if everything looked too similar? Mumbo shook his head. Surely, if he just kept adding to it, the base would turn out alright, but at the same time Mumbo couldn't bring himself to continue building.

Ah, he was burnt out, wasn't he? Mumbo realized this with a long, drawn out sigh. Despite how badly he wanted to continue creating, he really just couldn't go any further with this project.

Mumbo donned his elytra and grabbed some rockets, taking off from the path and quickly soaring over his vault, as he decided in that moment he wanted to see Grian and Scar. As much as he's used elytra and rockets over the years, it never seemed like the thrill of being so high up had ever mellowed out. Mumbo turned and glided towards Grian's base, slowing and landing at the halfway point between his and Grian's bases and continuing his speed as a jog.

He placed his hand on one of the pillars at the entry way. "Grian, you here?" He called, but got no response. "Grian!!" He tried again, but still, nothing. "Ohh, if he's not around his base I'll just go to Scar." He decided. The only reason he stopped at Grian's first was because Grian's base was closest.

After a few minutes of checking around Grian's usual spots and possible areas he could be building in, then also the underground cave the rift was in, Mumbo changed direction towards Scarland.

When he landed near the still unfinished entryway, he spotted Scar and Grian just about to head into the theme park, Scar showing off what Mumbo believed was an absolutely gigantic golden "admit one" ticket. Mumbo landed in a jog again and slowed to a walk as he approached the two.

"Oh, hey Mumbo!" Scar called with a wave. Grian turned as he loudly sipped on a Scarland slushy. Mumbo stopped and folded his arms across his chest. "Hey, guys, uh- so like, I was wondering if you'd like to- uh, hang out, maybe?" Mumbo stammered. He was already flustered from the frustration of his base, and now his face felt hot.

Scar covered his mouth with a giggle. "Oh, Mumbo, your face is all red." He pointed out. Grian grinned. "You flustered, Mumbs?" The two made their way over with sly grins, and Mumbo looked away nervously. "Well, well uh-"

Grian seemed to sense Mumbo's discomfort. "Hey, this isn't your usual Mumbo-nervousness." Grian prodded Mumbo in the chest. "What's wrong?"

Mumbo sighed as Grian refolded his wings and Scar walked over with curiosity. "It's my base, man, I can't keep building. I'm all burnt out." He explained. Grian and Scar nodded in thought, and Scar smiled and snapped. "I've got it! You can tour Scarland with us!" He exclaimed, grabbing Mumbo by the shoulders and dropping the giant ticket.

Grian promptly snatched the ticket up. "It's mine now, boys!" He claimed, and he promptly ran off into Scarland as soon as Scar swiped at him, both shouting and giggling. Mumbo laughed at the sight, following the two.

The day continued on into late afternoon as Scar showed off the shops and streets of Scarland. Mumbo's arms were piled high with all kinds of goodies, which Grian helped carry at one point.

By the time the sky started to change colors, Scar dragged the two up to his castle excitedly. "And here, the sunset is Ah-maze-ing!!" Scar pronounced his words flamboyantly, throwing his hands in the air joyfully. "I'm sure it is!" Mumbo agreed, smiling at the whimsy Scar had. Mumbo glanced at Grian, who was chewing on some popcorn with a smile, balloon strings tied around his wrists by Scar because Grian had kept letting go of them.

Scar placed down some stair blocks for the trio to sit, him sitting on one end, Grian on the other, and Mumbo in the middle. "So, did you enjoy your day at Scarland?" Scar wondered, a smile on his lips. Mumbo nodded "It was lovely," he said as Grian gave a thumbs up, his mouth full of popcorn. Scar clapped. "There's no rides yet, but once there is it's gonna be a hundred times more fun."

"I'll bet." Grian agreed after swallowing his food. Mumbo looked up as the clouds turned all sorts of yellow and pink shades from the sunset, sighing happily. Scar and Grian both leaned against him. "So what about your base? Did you clear your head?" Grian wondered as he put his arms around Mumbo's waist. Scar joined with his arm over Mumbo's shoulders.

"W-well.." Mumbo felt his face grow hot again. "My head is clear now, yeah.." Grian rested his head on Mumbo's shoulder, with Scar putting a hand on Mumbo's leg. Ohh, Mumbo had to change the subject before he got too flustered to speak! "And so now I'm wondering if you two would be interested in blowing up my base for-"

Grian leaped up, his wings fluttering in excitement. "We can blow up your base!?" Scar pulled his hands away to clap, a wide smile on his face. "I've always wanted to blow up a base! When can we do it?"

Mumbo laughed. "You didn't even let me finish my sentence! I was gonna say for a stack of diamond blocks each!" He watched as Grian and Scar's eyes lit up. "We're getting paid!?" Grian shouted. Scar clapped again. "Ohoho! Are we starting tomorrow?"

With a sigh, Mumbo tilted his head back. "What am I going to do with you two?"

[darkaviarymc]

mumscarian....? i haven't heard that name in YEARS......... and. and . you're asking ME for headcanons?!! oh gee...

anyways

* mumbo k. jumbo loves taking pictures of scar/grian. especially candid ones. so whenever one of them is not looking, he just.. yknow. sneaks a lil' picture. nobody has to know! (everybody knows)

* y'know confident and collected scar? yeah forget that whenever he gets called handsome or complimented by either of those two. he melts. MELTS. he's gotten better at it in recent years, but still. whenever either of them call him handsome hes like ME?!

* grian loves to just. murder them in kisses. its like an attack at times. you never know when its coming.. you just deal with it until grian flies away like nothing ever happened.

* mumbo's love language is quality time, scar is physical touch and words of confirmation, and grian is acts of services btw.

that being said, scar and grian will just hop over to mumbo's base for fun whenever they feel like it. mumbo might be an introvert, but he just loves to spend time with his partners.

grian and mumbo pick on scar a lor, sure, but they also love to just. call him handsome in the middle of conversation. especially when scar isn't really paying attention and its just them too. and he gets all the hugs and cuddles at night i swear (hes just like me frfr)

scar loves to cook/bake for grian, and mumbo usually cleans around his base (but not too much... thats pearl's job.) not much too add there but still!

anyways rhats it. teehee. much love from anonymous mumscarian enjoyer xx

I'm sorry I only just got to answer this!  I love them so much!  It's all so sweet and wholesome and made me smile.  If I may also add:

* Mumbo’s favorite picture is one of Scar sitting cross-legged in bed, half asleep, while Grian sits behind him on his knees unbraiding his har (sleeping with the braids is uncumfy) 

* One time Scar was planting flowers around Scarland, and Grian landed right behind him and greeted him with, "Hey, handsome."  Scar's brain immediately quit because like?  He was covered in dirt and sweat and his hair was an absolute mess and face was a bit sunburned?  Grian thought he was handsome even like that?  Yes.  Yes he did.

* Grian doesn't even have the good sense to wait until Mumbo is done with his redstone contraption first.  He'll just tackle the poor man while he's in the middle of setting a line of repeaters and once Grian leaves, Mumbo will have lost count and have to start over.  (I don't know how redstone redstones)

* Sometimes while Mumbo in engrossed in a project, Grian will just perch on a ledge somewhere and keep him company.  Sometimes Grian will talk about funny things that happened around the server, sometimes Mumbo will think out loud about whatever he's doing.  Then Scar will come swooping in to join them, and Mumbo will greet him with, "Hello, handosom," before he's landed and... welll...

GoodTimeWithScar experienced kinetic energy.

* Sometimes after Scar bakes, Grian will go around and sweep the flour off the floor.  None of that flour got there because they were goofing off.  Not at all. 

Thanks again for sending this lovely ask!

45 for the drabble game if you're still taking them? :3

I already did 45 here, so i did a random number generator instead and got 31! honestly this drabble took an entirely different tone than this song i swear the vibes are not the same help

What? Me, worry?

┈ ┈ ┈ ⋞ 〈 ⏣ 〉 ⋟ ┈ ┈ ┈

Scar likes to work on a project during the evenings in Tumble Town. Jimmy spots him in the tavern nearly every night, huddled next to the warm light of lantern. He's always writing in a book, or sometimes sketching.

Jimmy decides that tonight, he's gonna check that out.

"Howdy, Scar," he says, sitting down in the chair directly opposite of the man.

Scar jumps practically out of his chair. "Oh!" he cries. "Oh my goodness, you scared me!"

Jimmy grins. "You were awfully into that book, weren't you?"

"Oh this?" Scar asks, shutting the book. "Nah, it's nothin'. So what can I do for our illustrious sheriff tonight?"

"Didn't have much to do," Jimmy responds. "Just wanted to come over here and see what you were working on. Can I see it?"

Scar deliberates for a second, before passing the book over. "Sure."

Jimmy flips it open. It's filled with sketches of beautiful buildings, alongside messy notes and lists of blocks. There's some areas of color where it looks like Scar had been experimenting with block palettes.

"Dude, this is gorgeous!" Jimmy says. "I had no idea you were an artist!"

This succeeds in making Scar a bit bashful. That in itself is a feat, one which does not escape Jimmy's notice. He smiles a bit smugly. "Are these for Tumble Town?" he asks. "I love them!"

"Ah, well, no not exactly--" Scar says. "They're for my theme park."

"You're building a theme park?" Jimmy asks. "Like, here?"

"No," Scar says. "I was building it at home."

Jimmy looks at the drawings. They're a little messy, with lines going every which way, but in a way that still looks somehow careful and deliberate. Maybe practiced is a better word than messy. They're sketched in the hand of a practiced artist. Some pages have been marked off, and Jimmy realizes that they're all failed iterations on the same building design.

"You built all this at home?"

Scar takes the book from Jimmy and flips to some pages closer to the front. He points out a building on the page. "Not all of it. I built this one before we left. But the park was still unfinished when we went through the rift. It's been my project since we joined that world. I've wanted to build one for years and finally got the chance."

"Can you show me it?"

Scar laughed. "Well, not until the rift gets fixed at least. We're not going anywhere right now. But I guess you can come visit when all this is over."

Jimmy's chest squeezes a little at that. He doesn't want the rift to be fixed, because he doesn't want the hermits to leave. He doesn't want Scar to talk about his home, because he wants this to be his home.

But he can see the effort put into these plans. And they're exactly that, plans. He's seen how Scar works on them diligently every evening. Scar's not going to stay. Scar's going to leave eventually so that he can execute these plans.

"No, like, walk me through it right now. Here."

Scar's eyes light up at that, and he wheels himself around the table so that he can sit closer to Jimmy. He starts at the beginning of the book.

"My good sheriff," Scar says, in the voice of a showman, "allow me to introduce you to the greatest theme park in the world. It's a place of magic and mystery! It is a place where all can come and leave their worries at the door."

Jimmy hangs on his every word.

"Welcome," he says, "to Scarland. This is my concept art for the park, but I have built all of this already. I created this main walkway, you know, so it could be this grand entrance! And I landscaped these gardens to go with it."

"They look amazing," Jimmy says. "Man, you're such a good builder. I can't imagine how great it must look in real life."

Scar's smile is radiant. He goes on to to explain his choices for each building facade. He explains how the lights on top of the building swivel to provide light when needed but be out of the way during the daylight. He explains the purposeful placement of trees to keep the area aesthetically pleasing. He tells Jimmy about how he recorded morning and night messages to be played through the park loudspeakers, and gives Jimmy a demo of what they sounded like.

By the end, Jimmy almost feels like he's there. He flips through the book once more, looking at all the concept art for Scar's future builds. They're all beautiful, each and every one. Scar has even included plans for rides and exhibits in each one. He's made notes about what components he would need to make them run. He's written ideas for shows that could be put on in the theater he's going to build.

"This is the most magical place on earth, you say?"

"Of course," Scar says.

"I think I can feel it," Jimmy says. "I think I can feel it."

>> still accepting asks! give me a number 1-100 and specifiy if it's for spotify, and i'll try to write you a short drabble based on the song. i may or may not get to it though full disclosure <<

[ weirdly specific artist asks ]

[happy-hermit]

Okay, you asked for some Scar angst, and I was skimming your blog for some inspo and saw the idea about the summoning circle working and I remembered a throw away line from Mumbo's video that inspired angst.

So Mumbo tears over to Scarland, but just before he arrives:

GOODTIMEWITHSCAR has left the game

Mumbo's a bit bewildered, but okay, it's probably good he collects himself. He needs to clean up and explain at least some of why he manhandled the poor man's elytra off of him. Plus, honestly he needs a friend to talk to now, and Grian's one of his best ones, so he goes back and sets about settling into Hermitcraft, one tiny bit at a time.

Meanwhile, when Mumbo arrives poor Scar sees something he's been both hoping for and dreading in equal measure for a long, long time.

MUMBO has joined the game.

And look, Scar has never been a wise man, and honestly he has been doing his best to pretend this isn't going to happen. Yet now that it has, he finds that he is not ready. He might not ever be ready. He doesn't want to think about that place. Doesn't want to talk about the past. He doesn't want to think about any of it. He wants to dwell on the now, think about the future and leave that hellhole and every memory involved with it -good or bad- in the past.

Luckily for Scar, in his quest to not think about this moment, he got involved with the Create server, so he has a place to go. A place Mumbo can't follow. And without thinking things through too much, he disconnects from Hermitcraft.

So poor Mumbo has help dealing with things, talks about some of the trauma with Grian, begins to start building again, keeps sending private messages to Scar and getting no reply.

Meanwhile Scar's left his communicator on his bedside table in his moving house and he's on a terraforming binge. Look at him, he's catching up on all the work he's neglected. He's so productive.

He's so alone.

He hates being alone.

But he hates thinking about the apocalypse more.

Besides, after he abandoned Mumbo back on Hermitcraft, he probably deserves to be alone anyways.

This post sponsored by Mumbo saying "I keep trying to get a hold of Scar but he keeps saying he's busy." during his last episode. Why can't I be normal about things.

YESSS WAIT THIS IS SO GOOD. SCAR PANICKING AND RUNNING AWAY TO HIDE WHEN MUMBO COMES BACK. And it makes sense too because like. Seeing Mumbo now will be different from the Mumbo that left hermitcraft for a break. The Mumbo that comes back is the Mumbo that Scar remembers from that world, and as much as he loves him he is now associated so wholly with that place. And Scar hasn’t talked about it yet. He hasn’t confronted it, hasn’t healed from it. He’s been pretending it never happened. He’s been keeping that door locked tight for years and Mumbo has just appeared with the key. He doesn’t think he’s ready.

And poor Mumbo worrying that Scar might still be mad that he left him in that world, maybe worrying when he can’t find Scar that he somehow got sent back there, which doesn’t make sense but he’s spiraling— and then the other guys from the create server mention that Scar’s been spending a lot of time there, so like. Now Mumbo knows it’s on purpose. So he gives Scar space as much as he doesn’t want to, and Scar pretends that that’s what he wants.
