#mianite season two

[springbudeyes]

have you dropped the world historian lore yet?? they were one of my favorite characters from season 2 and i would LOVE to be able to learn more about them so many years later. i convinced my gf to start watching mianite with me and so far she's absolutely in love with the silly lore and would also love to know any other bts lore tidbits or stories that you have to share (:

hope you're having a great day!

I haven't dropped the lore yet, but I'll take this chance to explain a wee bit.

The lore drop will be a story. It will appeal very much to anyone interested in what World Historian has been up to since Season Two.

I will post on Substack – complete with pictures and an audio reading – and link it on Tumblr.

I'm working on it RIGHT NOW!

It's so cool to hear about new Mianitees entering the fold in 2024. I hope you and your gf have a wonderful time. Let me know if either of you has questions about anything.

Rewatching season two I forgot how poorly the streamers follow and put together the story

[transandor]

I. U have given me so much Mianite brainrot I wrote a poem/song thingie abt it. I haven't seen like. Even a single episode of Mianite-

Anyway uhhhh, hab thing ig:

Three by three, they made the world you see

One by one, they'll make it come undone

Three by three, they'll hold the world you see

One by one, they'll fight to change the way it's run

Chaos, Order, Balance, work against the darkness

Darkness, whispers, secrets, work against the gods

Three by three, to save the world you see

One by one, an enemy undone

Some notes:

No new tags that I saw this month, though as always I could have missed something! As you can see, we already have quite the assortment of canonized tags.

Fics are still primarily in english, but we have three exceptions with significant spanish fics. Karmaland (740 of 842 are in spanish, from 731 last month), Tortillaland (110 of 115 are in spanish, the same as last month), and QSMP (752 of 7,375 are in spanish, from 668 last month.)

QSMP also shows 39 fics in French, up from 30 last month, and 405 in Brasilian Portugese, up from 375 last month. While I did not check every language this month, I checked on the languages I knew had a fic in QSMP and we see 1 fic in ASL (probably a misclick as it appears to be in english), 1 fic in Bahasa Malaysia, 1 fic in German, 1 fic in Esperanto, 1 fic in Filipino, 5 works in European Portugese, 5 fics in Русский (Russian), 1 fic in Suomi (Finnish), 1 fic in Tiếng Việt (Vietnamese), and 3 fics in 中文-普通话 國語 (Mandarin Chinese, I believe), all the same as last month. New is two fics in Polski (Polish), one fic in Svenska (Swedish), and one fic in Dansk (Danish).

In the small and micro fandoms (under 200 fics), some of the most active small fandoms have grown out of this category so we only saw small amounts of growth. The standout fandoms all saw an increase of 6 works, and that was a tie between Content SMP, New Life SMP, and Witchcraft SMP. Note that Content SMP was coming up from only 24 works, so 6 new works is an increase of 25% of the fandom, truly impressive.

In the midsize fandoms (200-1000), Fable SMP has broken that 1000-fic mark and can no longer qualify for our standout fandom! Instead, our most active fandom was Evolution SMP, with 33 new works, followed by Mystreet with 20 fics and Minecraft: Story Mode with 24 fics. Mystreet and Story Mode are both new fandoms so it's unclear whether that's people retagging old work or true new fics.

For the post-canon big fandoms: Empires went up by 178 works, singificantly more than last month's 117, but not beating the previous month's 240, and Dream SMP's increase of 918 beat the previous month's 767, but is still only the second time I've seen this fandom fall under a thousand works plus a month. Hermitcraft is between seasons right now, but still experienced that holiday exchange boost, as its increase of 784 beat both last month's 574 and the previous month's 651. For active fandoms, traffic series posted a staggering 831 fics, which is its highest ever number, beating April 2023's 671 fics. QSMP saw 865 fics, which is part of a three month decline (894 last month, 913 the month before), but still posting numbers that are only exceeded by DSMP.

Overall, the number of fics posted under Video Blogging-RPF (the umbrella fandom that contains all MCYT) is 4,223 fics, a significant increase from last month's 3,489, and the previous month's 4,035, but still exceeded by October's record 4,702. Notably, it's higher than the summer numbers and almost exactly the same as the number we saw last January, 4,235 new works.

Looped Sun 5

Loop #177

Scott had decided to take one vacation loop and this happened? A null loop? In an empires world where Xonorth won? Without an arm? ... The world tree was very very mean.

Loop #179

Grian had decided to take a vacation loop, nothing too big of course but something relaxing... of course this plan did not predict for a null loop stuck in the end with the most sadistic version of the Watchers possible. Grian would never set fire to the world tree...but the tree is making it really hard not to want to.

Loop #182

Pearl wanted to just have a good loop, being trapped for twenty years in a tower was not part of that plan. It being a null loop even less. Being a damsel in distress is extremely boring without something to do.

Loop #184

This is war, after almost 200 loops Scar had yet to have a Star Wars loop and now he instead had a Star Trek one... To be fair it was a good one but it's the principle! The world tree did it on purpose.

Loop #187

Scott: Guess Grian Isn't going to be the only god now...

Pearl: I guess so... So whose place did we take?

Scott: I know a bunch about this place, I took Mianite's place as god of order and you took Dianite's as god of chaos.

Pearl: Where's Scar?

Scott: According to the loop's memories he's taking Ianite's place as balance god.

Pearl: Wait, wasn't Ianite imprisoned for like...centuries?

Scott: ...

Pearl: Let's go get him.

Loop #189

It was two in the morning when Scar crashed trough the window of Grian's apartment. Grian was not excited to see him.

Grian: Another hero loop?

Scar: What? No! This is a villain loop! Watch and fear, I am the wizard!

Grian: The wizard? Really?

Scar: What!? It's straight to the point.

Grian: ... I'll stop bullying if I can join the villany. I still got a mother spore outfit from last time we looped into season 7.

Scar: Welcome on board!!

Scott: No chaos magic this time?

Pearl: Nah, decided to go waterbending for this hero loop. Get better at healing. Maybe if I get a villain next time.

Loop #191

This was early, Grian had gotten used to sometimes waking up in Hermitcraft season 6 or 7. He wasn't too surprised when he woke up as a Watcher or in Evo. But this? He didn't even think he could loop back to high school. Fortunately this wasn't a null loop so he could actually do something but still...

Loop #193

Pearl didn't mind being an hyena, it was the why that annoyed her the most. At the same time, she should have expected this to happen considering Scar's name. She tried not to sigh as she recites her part.

Pearl: And where to we feature?

Scar: Just listen to teacher. I know it sound sordid but you'll be rewarded when at last, I'm given my dues. And injustice deliciously squared, be prepared!

Loop #193

It's been a while since Grian had gotten to start in the desert, as much as he hated waking up here at the beginning of the loops now it was a bit nostalgic. He knew this was going to be a relaxing loop.

Loop #195

Bdubs: She's losing her freaking mind-

*Boom*

Bdubs didn't get to finish that he became smoke while his items fell to the ground... The spectators weren't happy.

Grian: ...Who decided to give Pearl a gun?

Scar: I did!

Grian: ...why?

Loop #196

Rendog: Give us back that banner!

Grian: Nev'r! If thee need t then cometh h're and taketh t thee phony king.

Ren: Phony? How dare thee, thee damn hippie! I'll showeth thee the wrath of the r'd wint'r.

Grian: Nay, I wouldst winneth.

Skizz: What's going on dude?

Scott: They are talking in shakespearian english.

Skizz: I got that. Why?

Scott: I have no idea. Ren isn't even looping, he's just going along with it.

Skizz: Looping?

Scott: It's nothing.

Ren: Cometh h're and visage mine own wrath thee heathen!

Grian: Is yond a dare? Prepareth thyself f'r a vanquish.

Mumbo: Grian?

Grian: There is a way we can still be friends.

Mumbo: Ther-

Grian: þū meahte geunon mē!

Mumbo: ... What?

Grian: What? It's just some Old english.

Tango: Jimmy? Jimmy? What's wrong?

Jimmy: It's Scar and Grian! Make them stop!

Tango: What do you mean-

Grian: 𒁠 𒂠𒀭𒋠𒍦𒋀 𒆭𒋠𒂠𒄀𒊠𒊀𒋀𒀀𒋠𒂠 𒆤𒄠𒀀𒋀 𒋀𒄠𒄀𒁠𒊠 𒁭𒊠𒀭𒁀𒇠𒄀𒈀

Scar: 𒁠𒊀𒍤Y𒄀𒀀𒄠𒌋 𒈀𒄀 𒋠𒄀𒁠𒋀𒄠𒄀𒊠𒍤

Joel: Grian, mate, please stop this.

Jimmy: You'll get used to it eventually.

Grian: 𓃀𓄿𓂧 𓃀𓇌𓋴 𓃀𓄿𓂧 𓃀𓇌𓋴 𓅃𓉔𓄿𓏏 𓄿𓂋 𓇌𓅲 𓎼𓇋𓈖𓎼 𓏏 𓂧 𓅃𓉔𓈖 𓏏𓉔𓇌 𓎢𓅓 𓆑𓂋 𓇌𓅲

Joel: I really doubt it.

Grian: ⊑⟟ ⏁⊑⟒⍀⟒ ⋔⏃⍀⏁⊬⋏!

Martyn: You do know I speak ender right?

Grian: ... I forgot.

Loop #199

Listen, Grian didn't mean to start a religion really. That was more Joel's thing then his. It's not his fault he went god mode right as Gem started her Dawn church. At least he turned the god war between him, an unawake Pearl and Joel into a prank war. Which he was winning by the way. But that didn't stop it from being... Annoying at certain times. At least now he could teleport, that's a plus.

Loop #200

Grian: People! We got an expansion to our loop!

Scar: We did?

Grian: Check your loop memories!

Scar: Why- oh! We are after Secret Life!

Pearl: Finally, we get see season 10!

Scar: Look Joel and Skizz are Hermits.

Grian: Good for them, kinda hardcore that their first month of the season is demise 2.

Pearl: I mean, they are used to the Life Games so It's actually a good way to introduce them mate.

Pearl: Mate.

Grian: I know...

Pearl: I'm so sorry for you.

Grian: I'm going to have so many fishing loops now.

Pearl: It's ok...

Grian: Curse you unawake baseline me! Curse you!

Pearl: ... Snails?

Grian: Snails.

Scar: ... What are we talking about?

Grian: Snails.

Pearl: Snails snails.

Scar: ... Ok then, I'm out of here now.

Pearl: Snails!

Pearl: Is it me or is there something up with the season 10 water?

Grian: It's not you... it might like a moon big thing.

Pearl: Not another moon big, please.

MCYT RELIGIOUS GUILT OFF R3 MATCH 4

CAPTAINSPARKLEZ (MIANITE) VS MYTHICALSAUSAGE (AFTERLIFE SMP/EMPIRES SMP SEASON 2)

CaptainSparklez: "he did everything to prevent (ianite's) death, and yet it wasn’t enough. instead of accepting that there was nothing he could’ve done, that he did all he could, but she was dying from the moment he stepped foot on these lands, and maybe even before then, he still blames himself. he apologizes to her grave for not being enough. he blames himself for her death, for not being enough for his goddess, when he went above and beyond to do everything he could in an attempt to save her"

MythicalSausage: "this man has been reincarnated so many times and he does it all for pearl every time. he had SUUUUCH a breakdown when he met her on esmp season two. threw him off for the whole rest of the day. i know this guy spent his whole childhood praying to a goddess he Needed to believe in with all the shit he was going through because when he came face to face with her he was NOT normal"

[thedailypaper]

ignore that this post should have been made like two months ago

but here, finally, is my final piece for the 10th anniversary mianite zine! this was a wonderful project to work on, and i'm really proud of what i managed to put together!

i was a little iffy on doing a mianitian isles-themed piece, because i know people have Thoughts on this season/spinoff, but it's what got me into mianite and made me finally get a twitch account and meet a lot of my online friends. so i'll always have a soft spot for it <3

[coolcattime]

Hi all!! I've once again had a Mianite AU idea at like 2am and have decided to make that everyone's problem!! So welcome to my little thoughts on a mortality swap au (gods become mortals, mortals become gods)!

Here's a little rundown of my Season 1 thought (might do Season 2 layout later):

The three champions have directly swapped with their gods so

Tucker is the god of the overworld (with Mianite as his champion) Tom is the god of the nether (with Dianite as his champion) Jordan is the god of the end (with Ianite as his champion)

They also mostly find the alignments of the gods they've swapped with but they're also still Tucker, Tom, and Jordan so like Tom is more of a trickster than straight up evil and Tucker and Jordan can get into decade long grudges out of spite and misunderstandings.

Sonja is a self-made goddess in the way that the wizards are. Killed a god, absorbed their powers, became a goddess. You know typical stuff. I'm not sure if she has a champion, if she does, it's probably Wag. She's heavily associated with secrets (and maybe the deep dark...?)

Capsize and Redbeard are deities of fortune. Capsize controls good luck and Redbeard controls bad luck. Or rather they used to do that. They've been missing for as long as anyone can remember and everyone's fortunes have kinda got to shit. The two have mostly been forgotten by the time that the current champions discover the gods.

The plot gets kickstarted by the champions discovering the evidence of Capsize and Redbeard... then very quickly discover more evidence that points to Redbeard being dead and Capsize being imprisoned.

As far as they can all tell, someone plotted to and successfully abducted Capsize with the want to have complete control over good fortune (and likely keep it entirely for themselves). Redbeard caught wind of the plan but was killed before he could stop it, which is why bad luck has been out of control for generations.

Unfortunately when they bring this news to the gods at large, all of them immediately start blaming each other and very quickly end up on the verge of war. So the champions are left having to investigate their own gods to hopefully stop a war in the heavens and restore the balance of fortune.

AUs/Headcanon Projects

Trollhunters AU Masterpost (because it would be a pain in the ass to list them all)

Starborne Kingdom of Dianite :: My MCYT Starborne AU! Builds off Jordan's origins smp lore, continuing the story (since he fucking won't /lh /j) and adding worldbuilding to the realm of the starborne (in my headcanon, its a version of the Aether!) How the Aether and the cast works comes off a tidbit from non est ad astra (see below) so we got two tiem reesters + hermits + lifers and the canon OSMP cast

Masterpost | AU Tag

Tales of Aitheaca/Gays on a Boat :: Mianite Post-canon/post-Isles fanstory! Gays on a Boat follows tiem reester after season 2 and goes up through Isles (following everyone else but tom and jordan). Tales of Aitheaca picks up where Isles leaves off (if i pretend like the end of Isles doesn't exist it can't hurt me) and takes them to another relative universe in pursuit of a multiversal anomaly, where ultimate balance rules. also the boat is a dimension traveller and to everyone's shock not the only one

Gays on a Boat | Tales of Aitheaca

Mianite Godswap :: Joke AU I made during Octobernite, but also has a bit of story tied to it. mostly an excuse to make syndisparklez between a dianitee and mianitee because that concept is fascinating to me

Mianite x Life Series :: Fan season of the Life Series that builds off a funny little game that Ianite, Dianite and the Watchers play with their casts and swap them around, putting the lifers in a blank slate world of Mianite S1 with the objective of being the last one standing, and Jordan and Tom in a hardcore world where of they die, the world dies

Death’s Scale of Justice :: Headcanon for cEmeraldduo in the Mianite universe! :D Inspired by when Philza showed up at Jordan’s witch hut, Phil is a priest for Ruxomar Ianite and former friend of Spark lookin for his goddess when he disappears. Also includes the backstory for cTechno where he unearths Bellinite, the god of anarchy, revenge and blind vengeance (aka the Blood God) from the depths of the S1 World

(Unnamed HC 10 Worldbuilding) :: WIP, expansion and theory on the story behind Magic Mountain in Hermitcraft season 10 using Joel's temple to Lizzie and Mumbo's mined lab lore as a baseline. no tag yet but is in reference to the mosaic of lizzie and jim on art blog + canary in the iron mine painting

Original Projects

non est ad astra, mollis e terra via :: Multiverse lore dev, work in this is used mostly in reference to MCYT fanon, but also is a project i'm using for some OC stuff (includes worldbuilding for my Mianite RPG characters Ophi and Aurelia, and concepts for the Nightmare Spectrum)

For Good Measure :: Story of my stream sona, Sir Monty Jones aka where he was prior to becoming the wanderer of the outerverse. Takes place prior to Arcadia of Avalon and is basically monty python but if they were my ocs and silly knights and also minecraft

Arcadia of Avalon :: Original Arthurian retelling but i don't gaf I just think knights deserve to be stupid, gay and full of angst as the gods intended. Mostly an excuse to write my rarepairs and do some funky worldbuilding where the land of King Arthur is a war over the power of creation. i can't explain it better than that but trust me its a good one

Wide Awake in the Witching Hour :: Current set of lore and story for my sona Sir Monty Jones. Continues where For Good Measure leaves off and is, relatively time wise, lines up to the current timeline of HC10 and the Mianite RPG

[kittyplayz1cantmsg4somereason]

Heyyyyy pspspsps new Captain Sparklez fans who are enjoying the “Minecraft but if one of us dies the server dies” episodes, you should watch Mianite.

I want to resurrect this fandom and these two wonderful bastards have given me a spark to possibly light the fuse.

Also Mianite fandom how many of you are still here and like… alive? That’s not exactly what I mean but like how many of us still care? Like how many people would lose their minds with joy if one of them tweeted that season three starts next week.

[springbudeyes]

Please enjoy the first installment of a new series I'd like to call Gamemode 0!

If you're waiting for Mianite Season Four (ha), this will hopefully tide you over. Gamemode 0 is a highly produced mini-series that tells a story through text, dramatic audio narration, a musical score, and images. It stars a villain who was an edgy Grim Reaper in 2015 and it poses the question—how much has Kikoku Botan really changed since 2015?

That question will be answered over the course of – I'm guessing – seven-ish chapters? The first chapter, which you're about to read and hear, is based on a Minecraft RP session held in a single night. Those present for the session include World Historian's original writer (me) and a group of talented role-players. More info under the cut!

Here's the cast:

(All characters are voiced by me.)

Background:

The project was Mianite Etherealis. We played on a private 1.12 server for two years, ending in early 2023. The chapter you're about to read (titled Session One) covers the RP session that brought World Historian into the narrative.

I would almost go so far as to say that you're about to experience a canon World Historian mini-series with implications for all World Historian content in existence.

Is it actually canon? I don't know. It's as authentic as you'll ever get for WH, that's for sure. I've spent the last nine years developing the cosmology being used here. I planted the seeds for it when I created World Historian in 2015.

But no, Gamemode 0 isn't Dec-and-Tom-approved canon. And my astounding co-writers aren't offical Mianite writers. And Etherealis isn't a piece of lost Mianite media, though you can think of it that way if you'd like.

Vision:

Gamemode 0 will follow the plot of Mianite Etherealis for one more session, then embark on its own original plot centered on World Historian.

That being said, my aim with Gamemode 0 is to dig up a piece of the past and link it to the future. This series is one of many projects that could result from that effort. If it sees enough support, it could grow beyond text, images, and audio. We have endless headroom here.

If you're looking for Botan's history in Ruxomar, you'll find it. If you're hoping for a glimpse into Akemi and Mina's lives, you'll get it. If you seek all manner of strange World Historian lore, consider it yours. If you just wanna sink your teeth into a juicy hunk of Mianite meat, go get a napkin, you menace.

We have plenty of chapters to take us from the past, to the future, and back again. I could just list the plain facts about World Historian in a lore post, but I could never be satisfied with that. I'm a storyteller.

Disclaimer:

The players own their characters. Most of the dialogue and actions in Session One come straight from the corresponding RP session. I'm just putting it all to a narrative and making readability tweaks for first-timers.

Shout-outs:

Happy birthday yesterday, Honor! We love you!! I guess this is one of your presents. Thanks for letting World Historian take over as the big scary dude for a session. And sorry for writing out our best boy, Oleander. We should co-write something someday.

Cloud, thanks for going back to our defunct Minecraft world to set everything up and take the awesome shadered screenshots for Session One. Also thanks for making c!Cloud such a great POV character. He carries Gamemode 0.

Thank you, Moth, for the un-shadered screenies, for being my PR person, and for supporting me generally all the time. PDA PDA aaaaa!

And thanks, Metal, for being the cool one. B)

Calls to action:

Mianitees, shower love upon my friends. I know Moth and Cloud would jump at the opportunity to answer asks about their passionately crafted OCs. And so would Honor and Metal, I suspect. With the right motivation, who knows what they could create?

The link will send you to my Substack blog, where you'll be able to read, listen, like, and subscribe to my newsletter. The paid subscription has no advantage over the free one; most of you will pick free, but if anyone would like to support me financially, that would be super appreciated. (If we get some traction with subs, I'll set up sub goals and a budget for upgrades to my production.) I plan to release Gamemode 0 chapters as frequently as I can, but I will post something to my Substack every month—Mianite related or not.

Also please like and reblog this Tumblr post if you dig it and want to see more.

Now go and enjoy your food.

[ID: Digital drawing of a side profile of Captain Sparklez’ minecraft character, kneeling down, facing right, head in hands. He has long long black hair that is covering his face, a white shirt, black pants, brown belt, and brown boots. In the background are the black and teal lines of a reactor. At the bottom of the drawing is Minecraft dm text that reads “[Intuition -> me] You feel as though a warm light has been extinguished.” /end ID]

I Have Been Thinking About This For A Few Years.

I can guarantee that someone else has thought about this. But the whole "Tubbo being the son of Captainsparklez in DSMP" and then him being a dragon hybrid as a result. Something stuck in the back of my mind with that, and it just won't leave. So if you know The Realm of Mianite, you know the Lady Ianite, goddess of Balance. Her domain and themeing being of the End. Also the Ender Dragon. So where the hell is this nut case going with this? THE POSSIBILITY OF TUBBO ALSO BEING THE SON OF IANITE. Hear me out please. The champion being a dragon hybrid and a goddess of the End. Like we are talking Goddess of Death and her champion having a son named Tommyinnit--Same thing, same thing. ANYWAYS! If you remember in season two, Spark (that universe's version of Captainsparklez) WAS MARRIED AND HAD CHILDREN WITH THAT WORLD'S IANITE! I'M JUST SAYING THIS IS A REAL POSSIBILITY! Like she could have just showed up and been like "Oh here, I made a human child in your image, they are also half dragon like you. Bye!" And it just went down hill from there. So if Tubbo also happens to be half god, in this case the son of the Goddess of Balance, wouldn't that be wild? Not sure if it actually works in the long run but the possibility is absolutely there!

godddddd every time i think too hard about mianite and ideologies i just turn to mush. it’s so good. the deconstruction of good vs evil ideologies is SO well done i could literally talk about it for hours. there is no black and white. the fucking twist of mianite being the bad guy in season two will forever be one of the top cinema moments ever. because order is creation, right? order is for good guys. it keeps people in line and society running. but it also keeps people in line. it silences and stifles and is unyielding in its control. order is not truth. chaos is not lies. you can obscure to keep things in order just as much as you can revolt to uncover the truth. the concepts themselves hold no weight. it is only when someone decides to wield them that they gain morality.

and balance? justice? that is never for just the good guys. it’s teaming with the bad guys to keep the number of players on the field even. it’s creating chaos when things are too put together. it’s fighting for whatever the losing side is, no matter their ideologies, because there is no justice until there is balance. you cannot have a just fight when you outnumber your opponents 10 to 1. your narrative morality doesn’t matter. balance is not neutrality. it is not inaction. it’s taking action where action is missing. it’s filling the void created by others. and by god do i not think of these lessons every waking moment.
