Life Series but beefburgered

Hello my tumblr 👋 I'm not dead, I've just been fandom jumping then felt the urge to make somewhat of a reference sheet for the lifers for future use. Yap session about the designs below:

Grian: Very standard Grian. You can smell the Cherrifire influence in this one. I imagine the turtleneck being wide enough to hide his mouth behind as he stares menacingly into the distance. His eyebrows are practically fused with his eyes but it's probably best not to think about it too much. I have considered placing a literal waffle on the back of his head but it might be tedious to draw continuously.

Scar: Everytime I draw Scar he looks weird. It might be because I'm not too good with longer faces, but that's how I'd imagine the character looks like. I think I'll switch up this design a lot as his eyes and hair bug me sometimes. Maybe experiment with the scars too. Artists make him look really cool as an explosion victim.

Mumbo: The slicked back hair looks right. Extra strand sticking out to make him look a bit disheveled. I wonder if I should commit to making him look more goth/vampire-like. He gets a tiny mullet because it fits.

Jimmy: Wanted to make him look a bit bird-like so I tried to express that with the back of his head. I hope he looks pathetic enough.

Joel: Fairly shrek-like. I wanted to make him look grumpy so he has a shorter and broader build. Also decided that one green hair streak wasn't enough for my satisfaction. His brown coat has a honeycomb pattern, but that's not too obvious. Also, he is shorter than Lizzie.

Scott: Pretty sparkly guy. I wanted him to look quite friendly. He actually has thick eyelashes here instead of eyeshadow but I'm not against that idea either. Kind of miss his Last Life skin.

Impulse: I don't watch Impulse too much so this design was based on some common interpretations of him. The horns are a cute idea.

Skizz: Very standard Skizzleman design. The ripped sleeves and the arms are probably my favorite thing. Maybe I should add more hair on the arms.

Tango: People tend to draw him really different, so I took aspects from designs I liked and put it here. Both his sclera and shades ended up being red, but I thought the sclera was iconic and the design looks more interesting with shades on. I'm not sure if I'd prefer for Tango's hair to literally be made out of fire. I tried making it resemble fire instead.

Etho: Attempted to make him a contender for Top 10 Hottest Anime Men. I'm always interested to see how people work around his definitely unrecognizable Minecraft skin (sarcastic). Like other designs, I think I'll add a maple leaf on his clothes or something.

Bdubs: He looks more terrifying than I intended but that might be the point. Might change his hairstyle here. I'd like to draw his white-haired skin at some point.

Cleo: Very standard ZombieCleo design. The hair was based on their VTuber but I decided to use the clothes from their Minecraft skin. The stitches are the fun part. I might make her hair curlier.

Martyn: Very standard InTheLittleWood design. You can smell the Cherrifire influence in this one ×2. The little beard is a wonderful addition I think.

Ren: Picking between black or cyan shades was tough. He also gets an obligatory ponytail because uhm. Tail. Dog. Get it? I also took a good while figuring out how I should go about his ears. I wasn't satisfied with human ears but I needed the shades to fit somehow. You can smell the Cherrifire influence in this one ×3

Lizzie: Yes, I have watched Empires S1 and S2 and it shows. Whoever first decided to give Lizzie cat-like buns should be given an award. I like the idea of heart-shaped buns too so maybe I'll alternate on that.

BigB: Very standard Bigbst4tz2 design. Don't let his friendly interaction with Lizzie fool you but he tends to stare into your soul for uncomfortably long periods of time. The highlights in his eyes come and go.

Gem: Very standard GeminiTay design. She probably has my favorite skin among this batch. I heard there was a shortage of elf Gem (there isn't) and I have decided to contribute to that (because there's no such thing as too many elf Gems).

Pearl: Inside Pearl are two wolves and I decided to draw the one that's sopping wet. Her hair has a few crescent-shaped curls. I'm definitely looking forward to drawing her more intimidating side sometime.

Overall I was hoping to make the designs simple and mostly accurate to skins/pfps. Nothing too special, other than a few pointy ears I sprinkled around here and there. I might add more to the designs the more I draw them.

[oddly-specific-hermit-headcanons]

The first half of this is Why X made Hermitcraft and where everyone came from and then the second half is watcher stuff which I think is really cool.

Ok so I Hc that there are multiple different reasons Xisuma created Hermitcraft 1) was because he wanted somewhere safe where misfits alike could band together as a weird mishmash family 2) a place he knew was safe and 3) to make a place were individuals who were running from their pasts could stay safe

- JoeHills is hiding from a couple of crazy obsessive Exs

- Doc is hiding from mojang

- Scar is escaped his insanely toxic religious family and some people he got on the wrong sides of.

- XB is there after a messy server corruption that was blamed on him and is a wanted criminal.

- Etho and Mumbo are running from scientists

- Impuse and Ren were running from the military cause they deserted.

- Skizz was running from actual gods but they gave up a while ago.

- Joel is trying to find his wife but stuck around on hermtcraft.

- Pearl was trying to escape Evo and really needed help

- Gem is actually a magical princess who ran from an arranged marriage to live out her life as a strong independent individual and since then her kingdom is crumbled and no one knows where the she went and was titled The Lost Princess

- Grian well we all know why he's there

- Cub was part of a super secret government project but left after the scientist lost the subjects and because of conflicting morals

- Bdubs commited war crimes while trying to save someone's life but ultimately he failed

- iJevin was running from the Watchers who had taken a bit of a liking to him.

I have more that I will build upon cause writing this is cool

Now Little bit of context for the watcher stuff I mentioned

Watchers are like god-like deities that were worshipped long before they became corrupt and evil with power, now only followed by cults. Some players still pray to the Watcher Xelqua since they are the only watcher to have gone against watcher code. Anyways They would prey on players scouting out the most talented ones and experiment on them. Seeing how they could change them, they took Grian because he was a promising young admin, they watched the players of Evolution and when the time came they took Grian made him a watcher and he escapes into Hermitcraft.

Xisuma specifically designed Hermitcraft to be watcher proof as 1) he hates them with every fiber of his being and 2) majority of the hermits (himself included) have a possibility of being kidnapped by the watchers if found by Them, for example Doc and Scar they would be seen as extremely powerful potential Watchers.

Doc because of his genius, technological skills and the fact he fought a mojang admin and lived to tell the tale.

Scar because of his strength in magic and that he's part vex.

So when Grian, Mr escaped watcher guy, drops in they're all in fight or flight mode, though most of them are ready to behead G. Obviously Xisuma is the one who handles it and all is good in the end.

The reason why the Watchers would want the Hermits is because they are all 'pure' their raw skills and determination alone is what makes them such a good group,

- Pearl because of her magic and her connection to the moon

- Mumbo and his experiences with cults and the fact that he's a vampire

- Gem and her otherworldly abilities,

- iJevin because his strength and smarts,

- Scar with his magical abilities and vex stuff

- Doc because his technology genius and cause he survived a fight with a mojang admin (he's the first and only one recorded to have lived substantially afterwards)

- Xisuma because of his admin powers and voidwalker power

- Ex same reasons as X

- Skizz cause of his angel counterpart

- Grian cause he's one of the strongest player turned watcher they've made and they want him back

- Etho cause of his cryptic eldritch powers and unknown hybrid status (there is reason to believe he is from the void)

- Cleo because of their skills in necromancy and magic.

And so on

They mainly aim for those who have magic already since they can enhance it and they're less likely to die but that's not always the case.

And that's all I have for now

Hermitcraft / Life Series Fic Recs

Because I love so many of them...

I'll split the fics into completed and updating fics, and try to only recommend currently updating fics (i.e., not abandoned). I'm going to write a little about why I like each fic and what the general vibes are - so this is also a kind of review I guess?

I've tried to @ the authors if they have a public tumblr. Sorry to anyone who didn't want to be tagged, I can remove any @ if you ask (or if I have embarrassingly tagged the wrong person). Anyway, enjoy, and I appreciate reblogs because I want as many people to see these fics as possible!!

This ended up being incredibly long so I'm putting a divider here. Click to keep reading!!! Also, fair warning: shipping ahead! Some fics will have mild sexual content, please read the tags if you are unsure <3

Updating Fics

I have already recommended Help Me To Breathe, lost in the dark (he's got a heavy heart), and There Are Monsters Nearby in this post, so I won't explain why I like them a second time, but definitely check them out!!

Death's A Good Gig by @mawofthemagnetar is probably going to be finished by the time this post gets to you, reader, but I'm putting it here anyway. It's short and sweet, one of my favourite representations of Zedaph (or, Zedeath) I've read, and just a joy to experience. If you like grim reapers and discussions of unions, this one is for you. Also I need more Zedaph in my life.

Look, I'm Sorry, Please Stop Scaring Everyone by @cat-in-the-desert reminds me a lot of a particular TV drama I liked when I was younger, which followed a similar premise. This fic follows Mumbo (vampire) and Grian (ghost) as they get up to various housemate shenanigans and meet their local magic-expert and salesman Scar. This fic is fun, but still includes a nice amount of Feelings and hinted-at Angst which I really love. It's lighthearted, but never boring.

It Hurts To Hope by Inquillitory is my favourite of the "Grian crash lands into Hermitcraft and causes problems for everyone" genre. Seeing how many fics there are with that premise, I think that says a lot. It handles Grian's weird Watcher stuff really well. Honestly, I just want to know what happens next!

killing the boy in the tv by @raspberrystruck is like a sickfic on steroids. If you want Grian with so much past trauma he forgets how to function in society, this is basically the fic for you. I really love how hybrid traits affect the characters' interactions in this fic, and how everyone is kind of messed up because of the imbalance Grian brings. It is wonderfully descriptive in all the right places!

Love Me Like I'm Dead by @daniofcrows is such a gem. You know how hard it is to find good Xisuma whump? It's impossible. I absolutely love how Xisuma and Evil X are characterised in this, and I am obsessed with the unique take on hanahaki disease which I have never seen handled in this way before. The balance between flashbacks and present day is maintained wonderfully and I cannot wait to continue reading this one. Wow.

Oh, you wanted me to do a verse? by @bugbbear is... kind of indescribable. It's horror. It's comedy. It's the apocalypse. It's boatem. Scar eats someone. One of the most interesting and unique apocalypse stories I have read. Slowly updating but worth the wait, in my opinion. This one NEEDS more attention.

So Much For Stardust by @a-plethora-of-peters is basically one of my all-time favourites. Which is a damn good achievement seeing as I don't usually read ZITS fics. Like, ever. In this fic, Skizz is a human abducted and hurt badly by aliens, now recovering in the care of good aliens who don't know how 'sentient' he is. Every update of this one makes me smile, it is wonderful. I love how the characters are written and how the different perspectives are shown. It is just great.

Solar Waltz by @raspberrystruck and aroundtheclock is a brilliant and very very sad regression fic. I love fluffy regression fics as much as the next guy, but this one just... hits different. The hurt/comfort levels are off the charts. Grian is so damn cute the whole time, while also being harrowingly complicated and sad. I am so ready for whatever comes next.

Tango's Castle of Cards by @evilrat-sabre is the one where Tango is a BUG. He's just a little guy (horror). This one is so beautifully written, with poetry-type interludes and perspective changes that really make everything feel so much more impactful. Finding out your buddy is a murder bug isn't the easiest thing in the world. I love this so much.

Traveling Thieves {Dark Fantasy AU} (series) by @amethystfairy1 is basically one of the series of all time. I know I keep saying that but it really really is. I love a good fantasy au, and I love an au with hybrids even more. In this world, hybrids are treated like slaves, but it isn't all doom and gloom for the main characters of each installment. There is a lot of hurt/comfort and the different stories feed into each other in really interesting ways. I try to read as much as I can, though I've missed a few because my emails are buggy. Definitely worth reading these fics, especially since now they're all starting to come together!

Completed Fics

Solving Counting Sheep by @theminecraftbee might have rearranged my brain chemistry a little. Another strong contender for 'fics that inspire me to kill Grian', this time with a more concrete notion of "replacement". Three is my favourite fucked up living weapon. It's so rare to find Evo fics in this day and age, too. This fic had me immediately clicking on every update as soon as I got the emails.

Rescue Fire by @imaginethat0327 is one of the most unique takes on a fictionalised life series game that I have ever read. The whole concept is explained in a realistic and easy-to-follow way, as we learn what's happening with the characters. There are several brilliant storylines happening in this one, but my particular favourites are Jimmy & Tango, Joel, and of course Scar & Grian. This fic is full of whump and, well, read the tags, it isn't always pleasant, but those are my favourite things ever. Definitely worth checking out this fic and its currently updating sequel.

don't you know about me? by takenbadgering is a wonderful comedy of errors with just the right amount of angst for a realistic setting type of fic. If you enjoy polyamory miscommunications, rave aesthetics, kandi, school teacher dynamics, and a lovely blend between grumbo, cubscar, and mumscar, this is the one.

Eventually the Birds Must Land by @milo-hypno follows a polyam ship I would have never thought of, and I cannot believe how much I loved it. This married-as-friends fic premise is wonderful, and captures the main trio (Grian, Mumbo, Impulse)'s personalities so well, while balancing them with the incredibly terrifying descriptions of the Watchers and their power. There's a lot of angst here, but it is ultimately hurt/comfort to the maximum degree. I loved reading it as it updated. Yay for gay marriage!

From The Archives (series) by @sixteenth-days was the absolute inspiration for my own Comms AU, and I will never forget its influence on me. As someone basically unfamiliar with TMA, I thought this series might be hard to follow, but it was not! I read all 57 parts in the span of two days, and I think it altered my brain chemistry. Please read it, even if (especially if) you don't know anything about TMA. The Cleo and Grian storyline lives in my head rent free. I mean it. This is horror at its finest. Also there's an audio series of this fic being released rn, which is very cool.

SUPERCRITICAL by @masque-of-plague hits different. It is such a wonderful take on the superhero/HotGuy trope, and it gets so super dark at some points! This one really takes swings at it's fictional government, which of course I love, while at the same time building this brilliantly emotional relationship between Scar and Grian. I do enjoy a bit of enemies to lovers, but the actual plot mixed into the story makes this one extra special. It is thrilling, with action that I don't get to see too often! Great work.

I am weary with contending! is one of the mumscarian fics of all time. From 'this house has people in it'-type horror, to magic gone wrong, to childhood trauma, to attempted assassination, to gender fuckery, this fic has it all. Usually I don't go for convex siblings, but this one is good enough to get a pass from me. Amazingly detailed worldbuilding alongside a brilliantly creative story.

It Spreads by @foxxology may not count as a fic, actually. It's a comic. But it's posted on ao3 so it counts. I was obsessed with this one as it was updating, honestly. It rocked me to my core. The art is phenomenal. The writing is brilliant. I love sculk.

Luck of the sea by Sleepy_Duck is a lovely take on mermaid and human interactions, with Grian as a marine life conservator and Scar as a very neglected mer. This one takes us emotionally in all sorts of directions, and offers lots of hope for the future of the characters. I heavily enjoyed this fic - if you like mermaids and marine biology, check it out.

there are many downsides to being a marine biologist by donnerstag is another mermaid fic but with a pretty different vibe. First of all, it follows what I would consider a rarepair Doc/Martyn. Second of all, reading this as it updated was a thrilling experience that nearly made me cry at certain points. I love how the relationship builds in this fic. It is honestly amazing. The whole idea of experimenting on a sentient sea creature, learning that he can communicate, then losing funding and having to save him from being dissected?!?! It's crazy. I love it.

Thus concludes my fic recommendations. I hope you enjoy at least some of these, and consider reblogging to spread these wonderful fics around <3

[frozenjokes]

Cub and mumbo is a ship I really want to like extremely badly but it hasn’t quite clicked in my brain how they would work so I just need to take a moment to ramble and brainstorm and make it happen.

I think they have a kind of vibe that’s like ‘I saw cub at the ‘eating people’ club!’ ‘what were YOU doing that the ‘eating people’ club?’ I imagine cub being charmed by S8 mumbo and his quite frankly insane workaround to stealing Grian’s soul instead of just cannibalism normal style. Cub might keep tabs on Mumbo after that, just curiosity with little interaction, and he ends up witnessing multiple instances of Technically Not Cannibalism? that leave him kind of baffled?? mumbo jumbo why are you jumping through hoops like this. I am fascinated by you but I think also you are in desperate need of tearing someone apart (and god I’d love to watch). They’ve said a total of five words to each other when cub wanders over to him and is like hey. if you wanted to 👉👈 you could ✌️ rip scar into a million pieces with me :) for fun :)

mumbo goes ?????????no????????"? and cub comes away from this interaction dejected and also with the impression that the issue here is that mumbo is simply repressed and is in desperate need of help and nothing else. commence slutfan135 (attraction and eating people are integrally linked which is a universal for everyone cub has decided)

from Mumbo’s perspective this is coming out of fucking nowhere and he’s deeply deeply confused until he’s chatting with scar one day and the subject comes up and scar’s like oh yeah lol he wants you to eat him soooooo bad he’s been talking my ear off about for weeks and mumbo goes Why. W hy. And scar shrugs. (Unhinged cubfan monologue would not have been understandable to anyone especially not scar but he’s just happy to listen to cub talk. Nothing is more fun than listening to an autistic person go off the rails about something insane.)

Mumbo just approaches cub the next day and goes dude I do not want to eat you and I’m not going to. And cub goes 🥺 please? Somehow this leads to a conversation about desire and carnal attraction and gore and shit and it’s nice probably. Mumbo doesn’t really want to hurt people so instead he chooses to hurt people in extremely convoluted ways instead. Cub suggests he go apeshit instead. you’ve been cannibalism edging me for weeks mumbo jumbo I am begging you. Something something guilt and shame and it’s all an extremely poorly disguised allegory for catholic guilt and shame in regards to sex. maybe it ends with mumbo suggesting cub eat him instead. This might fix him??? I enjoy a predator hunter/hunted dynamic so I think that would go hard with cub being like okay :3 only if I can chase you through my gay little labyrinth. Even better if the turns get tabled on cub and mumbo ends up killing him instead. I haven’t mentioned mumbo is a vampire yet but he is. Then they eat each other the end. cumbo win

Vampire Mumbo and Grian possible holding hands and or kissing (I need for research purposes for Grumbo vampire fic)

Me: but

Scott: uh oh

Scott: oh DEAL

Scott: oh my mumbo i need to think of a drag name

Me: right. have fun with that

Me: when in march?

Scott: first week. the drag show should be that friday

Me: right i'll put it in my calendar

Grian does put it in his calendar, set right on March 5th. That isn’t too far away, really, but gives him plenty of time to prepare.

Then his phone buzzes—another notification from Scar, which immediately sends his heart into his throat as he swipes it away without even reading it.

He might make a noise, also. That would make sense, judging by how both Mumbo and Pearl start, looking up at him.

“You good?” Mumbo asks, then, before Grian can respond, he checks his watch. “Oh, dear—”

Mumbo jumps up from his chair, frantically stuffing his laptop and papers into his shoulder bag faster than Grian’s ever seen anyone do it. “I forgot—study group—”

“Have fun,” Pearl calls. Mumbo, already halfway out the door, simply waves a harried hand and hurries out, a dry erase marker still stuck behind his ear.

“Ah,” Pearl says drily. “He took the marker. Librarians aren’t going to be happy.”

Grian had been planning on using that marker, too. Not for anything important, but he’d had half a mind to draw something stupid on the dry erase board before they checked out of their library study room. Hatsune Miku, probably.

Then he remembers the text message with a jolt, and this time he hears when he yelps. It sounds kind of like Mumbo does when gets caught eating carrots out of the fridge at two in the morning. Just a little ah!

Pearl raises an eyebrow at him.

Grian sighs. “The guy I went on a date with keeps texting me.”

“Okay?”

“I—” Grian wrings his hands— “he’s a really nice guy,” he says reluctantly. “I feel bad for ghosting him.”

According to the barkeep, he’s not just a typical nice guy. Scar is everything that he seems: kind hearted, passionate, funny, a little ridiculous. He doesn’t deserve the hurt that Grian is surely causing him.

“Then don’t,” Pearl shrugs.

“Don’t—don’t what?”

“Ghost him.”

“I’m already doing that.”

“No, like—don’t ghost him.”

Grian blinks. Don’t ghost him? How can he do that while still getting out of this situation?

“Meet up with him again, tell him you don’t think it’ll work out, then block his number,” Pearl says, as if it’s that simple.

Is it?

And. . . .

Well, he’ll get another free meal out of it. Not in a vampire way.

It feels kind of sleazy, but no worse than he already feels for ghosting him. “Maybe you have good ideas sometimes,” he says idly. Pearl chucks a pencil at him, which is quite rude to do to your only brother.

So Grian unlocks his phone, and. . . .

He will text him back. He will.

But not—not yet. He needs a minute to gather his courage.

And how better to gather his courage than scroll through memes for a while?

-

Scar has sent seven messages to Ariana since the date. All of them entirely reasonable.

The first two were to express what a good time he had, and make sure she got home safe. The next two were asking her out on a second date. And the final three were daily check-ins, to make sure his messages didn't get buried.

She has not responded to a single one.

That isn't the end of the world. It can’t be. Because for some reason, the world is still turning and Scar is still found upon it, so it can’t have ended; it isn’t even the remotest possibility! The world definitely hasn’t ended.

But it sure feels like it has.

It’s three days later and he’s in his so-called math class, but he simply cannot force himself to pay attention. They really ought to devise some way to make boring classes more pay-attentionable. Perhaps they can adopt a school cat to frolic about on the table, causing comical cat catastrophes and being given the final say on issues of debate. It would also be nice for student government meetings. Oh, then he would be able to carry cat toys, of which he already has plenty due to his excitement to one day adopt a cat.

It would keep his mind off the angel, too. Otherwise, he can only focus on every little thing that he must have done wrong on the date.

He didn’t offer her his arm when they went in. That has to have marked him down at least three points, if not more. After all, it’s the chivalrous thing to do, and instead he just followed along behind her! Practical, perhaps, to give him more time to check for ice on the sidewalk and not slip, but not how a date should behave, especially on the first outing.

He tried to pressure her into alcohol too, didn’t he? Oh, that was a trainwreck—she wasn’t at all interested in the drink he had picked out, and had elected her own! Of course, Scar wasn’t exactly aware that the drink was alcoholic, but he was the one who tried to order it and he should have made sure first.

And he barely even let her talk! He talked all about himself practically all date, giving her no chance to talk about something interesting to her. How could he even imagine himself so intriguing as to hold her attention for so long? Nobody likes to listen to his Disney rants in a normal situation—Cub always tells him that they’re far too long-winded and he brings them up too often, clearly one of his main flaws, and he’d just flaunted his Disney knowledge all over her without even asking if it was okay!

She probably hadn’t even liked the flowers, no matter what she said. She probably didn’t even want to go on the date in the first place.

Scar sighs. To his dismay, nobody asks him what’s wrong.

He sighs again, slightly louder.

When nobody asks what’s wrong a second time, Scar huffs, glances around for someone to console him.

He’s the only person in the room.

He checks his phone.

Ah. Class ended several minutes ago. The last thing he clearly remembers about the class is the professor writing the agenda on the board—he’d entirely zoned out by the time the first formulas were being copied down.

He should probably go to that study group of Impulse’s, given his track record of paying attention. It does meet today, and fairly soon, right? And in this building, in a study room down by the exit. It’s basically on his way!

Perhaps Impulse’s study group will provide a suitable distraction for his heartbreak. He needs one, and desperately. Even imagining a cat hasn’t worked.

“Er, Scar?”

Scar looks up; Scott’s standing in the doorway, his backpack only half on his shoulders. Oh, good! Someone to opine to!

“What are you doing in my stats class?” Scott asks. Scar doesn’t answer that question and instead slides his phone across the table toward Scott, still open on the text thread with Ariana.

“Am I coming on too strong?” he asks, terrified of the answer.

Scott looks vaguely like he still wants to figure out why Scar’s here, but the opportunity to insert himself in someone else’s relationship drama is too tempting and he picks up the phone.

“‘Sorry if I made you uncomfortable, I just want to make sure you’re okay and not kidnapped or unable to speak due to some terrible accident, because if you got hit by a car as soon as you left after our date I would feel really bad forever and ever, so just text me if you’re alive because you’re very attractive and I think someone would probably want to kidnap you (BUT NOT ME) and I just want to know that you’re safe,’” Scott reads aloud. “You sent this?”

“Yes. Is it too much?”

“I mean . . . yeah.”

“Which part?” Scar asks, leaning forward. Scott gives him his phone back.

“The whole thing. It’s giving desperate,” Scott says. “You want her to chase you too—or, him, I mean.”

Scar chuckles. Oh, Scott. “An angel.”

“Did not clarify the gender.”

“A girl, Scott,” Scar says, a little affronted, though he isn’t sure why. “I’m not gay.”

Scott puts his hands up. “Geez, sorry. I just heard you tell Impulse the other day that Bdubs is super cute, so I didn’t want to assume.”

“Well, yeah, but every man finds men attractive.”

“No . . . no, I . . . I don’t think they do?” says Scott. “Guys who find guys attractive are . . . into guys.”

“Well, no. Every man has another man that they would, you know, go for! On principle! Like—like Ryan Reynolds!”

Scott looks at him. His eyebrows are raised, mouth a thin line.

Scar isn’t sure what that look means.

“How many men have you found attractive this week?”

Scar rolls his eyes. “Well, that’s impossible to count. You might as well ask how many animators work on any given film! There was the guy serving mashed potatoes yesterday, a real looker in the restroom this morning, a very pretty boy in make-up the other night, Bdubs, a blond boy playing soccer on the quad, this boy in the library, a—”

“Yeah,” Scott says. “Most men only have, like, one guy ever. Not every other man they pass.”

“Okay, but, I’m just as attracted to girls!” Scar protests. “So I can’t be gay, I must be straight. You’re either gay or straight, Scott!”

“Not remotely true.”

“I have to get to my study group,” Scar says loudly, snatching his phone off the table and grabbing his cane. “Thank you, Mr. Smajor, for your opinion. It will be recycled as soon as is convenient.”

“Gee, thanks.”

Scar raises his cane to him, then begins the trek downstairs to Impulse’s study group. He barely debates a moment before heading toward the elevator rather than the stairs. Maybe a year ago he would have chosen the stairs, but he doesn’t want to push himself any more than necessary.

“Scar! Good to have you,” Impulse says when he walks into the right study room (after walking into the wrong one twice). “Take a seat, man, right here.”

Scar isn’t the first person to show up, but he is surprisingly early. He takes the proferred seat, setting his cane up against the table.

“We’re actually going to split into two rooms,” Impulse tells him, leaning against the table. “I’ll be helping with more advanced concepts here, and Mumbo will be taking the easier stuff in the other room.”

“And trig is. . . ?”

Impulse laughs. “Definitely advanced, bud. How ya been?”

That’s a loaded question. Scar sighs dramatically and lets his head fall on the table. “Terrible. I took the most perfect angel on a date last week, and I haven’t gotten a single text back!”

“Who, Bdubs?”

Scar blinks. “What? No. You and Scott, I swear. . . .”

“You told me he’s cute!”

“Lots of guys are cute,” Scar waves off. “I’m straight, though. Not that anything else is relevant, because it was the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen, and now I’ll never see her again!”

“Aw, come on, buddy,” Impulse says encouragingly, laying a hand on his shoulder. “There’s someone out there for you! And you know what? That’s what math is all about—finding what’s missing to make you whole!”

“I thought it was about finding x,” says Mumbo, poking his head into the room. Despite the potential of witnessing Mumbo’s beautiful mustache, Scar doesn’t lift his head, grimacing as he considers Mumbo’s suggestion.

“I don’t want to find my ex, Impulse, I can’t believe you talked me into this—”

“Nope,” Impulse says firmly. “Nope. It’s about finding a missing number.”

Her number isn’t missing, though. It’s right there in Scar’s phone, ten digits that will never respond to him, ten fingers he’ll never be able to clasp between his own again, ten children they’ll never have. . . .

Scar’s phone buzzes, sitting, as it is, on the table beside his head.

Scar straightens up immediately, scrambling for his phone. In his haste, he actually pushes it further away, then right up to the edge, teetering, tottering—

Scar practically throws himself across the table to grab it, and he manages to wrap his fingers around it, thank Mumbo—

But, as a result of the sudden exertion, Scar’s hands are suddenly sweaty, and his phone slips out of his hand and lands face-down on the tile floor.

“It probably wasn’t even her,” he says morosely, staring at the phone below. “It was probably another text from that lost dog poster I put up.” “Oh, you have a dog?” Mumbo asks, while Impulse steps around the table to pick up the phone.

“No.”

“What?”

Impulse, phone in hand, places it back on the table—then seems to think better and picks it back up, placing it directly into Scar’s hand. “I don’t know if all those cracks were already there,” he says. “I think you need a new phone, buddy.”

There aren’t any new cracks, luckily, and Scar turns on his phone to see—

Yep. Another text from one of the lost dog posters.

Just as he begins to return to being a puddle of gloop on this table, his phone buzzes again. His heart leaps into his mouth, he frantically fumbles for the button—

Another lost dog text.

From the same number, actually. Something about the picture on the poster being a picture of their own dog, clearly taken while it was in their backyard. Scar isn’t trying to read all that, so he’s not entirely sure what their problem is.

Well, that was possibly the biggest disappointment of his life. And now he has to do math? Why, he might as well just be put out of his misery right now! Just taken out back and put down, like a sad dog, preferably a cute one like the ones he used for the posters, but a sad one nonetheless—

Wait.

Another message pops up, hidden under the first two that he had carelessly swiped away.

Ariana: lol no worries i’m alive

Ariana: a date on thursday maybe?

With any luck, Scar will get used to the gymnastics that his heart surely oughtn’t be performing.

Even if some part of him doesn’t ever want to get used to her.

Solar Event [Chapter 3]

Pair: Scar/Grian [DesertDuo]

Tags: Space AU, Space Cowboys, Eventual Romance, Fluff and Angst, Comfort

Summary: Grian immediately clicks with their new friend Mumbo, and Scar feels complicated about it.

A perilous moment forces Grian to relive old wounds and gets the comfort he needs from a good friend—or co-pilot? Maybe.

Words: 23.7k

Link: Solar Event Chapter 3 on Ao3!

An excerpt from the chapter:

“Hello! I’m Mumbo.”

The tall lanky creature stood before Grian, bug eyes petrifying through him with a sort of kind look to those brown pupils. Mumbo leaned backward to pull the lenses off of his eyes, revealing the normal sized orbs beneath with a slim face and a button nose, almost like Scar’s. Tufts of white and red fur lined the man’s sideburns, blending into the black hair on his head. Antenna waves around curiously, examining the air. Grian thought he’d looked similar to what Alerion described as a vampire, with a white streak running through the man’s strands.

So the silliness ensued.

Grian smiled the moment he shook hands with Mumbo, their conversation flowed so naturally it was rather comical how well they’d bonded.

“Hello, I’m Grian.”

[pluieasteroides]

moon elixir (buttercups au)

hi! i'm back with another au (meau; pronounced meow lol)! this was my idea for the deadeye zine project, but unfortunately i wasn't selected :/ i'll still write the fic i thought of tho! so here are a few details about it >:D

it's a cowboys-themed au, though there are mythical creatures in it (i.e., vampires and sorcerers, mostly)

grian is a watcher (which is kinda like a biblically accurate angel in this au? ish?) (and a cowboy! yeehaw!)

mumbo is a vampire (and an heir)

scar is a sorcerer (and a cat hybrid + an assassin/hitman)

scar and grian are from this one town that's near the desert (idk the name yet lol) they were childhood friends (and bonded over the fact that they're both mythical/magical creatures) and eventually fell in love (though they never confessed! ;0;) but one day scar betrayed grian by joining the police force (he was in desperate need of money and being a police hitman would enable him to pay for all his necessities) (grian views it as betrayal because he's always been against the government) thus, grian left town and scar has been looking for him ever since so he can properly apologize and confess

and so grian becomes a cowboy and starts robbing banks and rich people's houses/properties! >:D but in order to not be found, he's constantly on the run across the desert. he gets hurt many times by government officers, and at some point, one of his eight wings breaks (he has two on his head and six on his back; one of his back wings gets broken)

from scar's pov, nothing really happens for a while, though he does gain money by getting commissioned to kill. the government pays him well, and so he investigates cases and stuff. suddenly, a series of mysterious murders happens across the desert and its neighbouring towns/villages. eventually, people fully believe grian is behind the mysterious murders, and so scar is sent on his tail by the police force

one day, still hurt and in need of money to get cured, grian decides to steal from a powerful vampire family (mumbo's!) but while there, he meets mumbo, and they make a pact: if grian protects mumbo and leads him to a faraway town across the desert (so he can escape his family), mumbo will give grian his blood in order to heal his injuries. and so they're both on the run!

grian rapidly finds out that mumbo's the person behind the mysterious murders lol; mumbo never really socialized outside of his family's estate, and so his hunger is quite powerful, and he does not know how to control it yet (he was forced to feed off his friends and children back at the estate because his parents believe in vampiric supremacy and so the poor guy's kinda traumatized lol)

cue silly shenanigans between grian and mumbo! they start falling for one another, and grian begins feeling guilty over his feelings because he's still in love with scar, and he doesn't really understand that *yes* you can fall in love with multiple people (lmao) the angst is angsting

because mumbo is nocturnal, he and grian travel during the night and sleep in motels/tents during the day. they're both pretty weak and need frequent breaks, so they are quite slow in their travels

one night, as the sun sets, grian wakes up with a gasp; he's had a vision. (since he's a watcher, he has visions of the future-kinda like alice from twilight lol-) he saw scar running towards him. panicking, he and mumbo grab everything they got and are back on the run

but scar gets to them impressively fast, and arrests them by bonding them to him using runes/spells. the thing tho, is that scar needs to spill blood to cast spells/draw runes. so, famished, mumbo jumps on him and starts drinking his blood (and is addicted cause sorcerers' blood is super 'refined' and tasty lol) so scar and mumbo are accidentally blood-bonded because of mumbo's bite (they share emotions, feelings, and pain). everyone is kinda annoyed at each other and their relationship is very tense at the beginning lol; grian feels even more betrayed and is still very much angry at scar because of their shared past too. though, they start traveling back to scar and grian's original town nonetheless

but of course! they all for one another over the duration of their trip lol ;; and so scar ultimately decides to run away with mumbo and grian :>

idea of a very specific scene: at some point, grian and scar can't stop arguing in the middle of the day while mumbo's trying to sleep and he grows immensely fed up of their quarrels, so he gets up from the bed, kisses scar, then kisses grian, and shouts 'THERE. THAT'LL SHUT YOU BOTH UP.' LMAO

they do... other stuff while in motels. if you get what i'm saying. wink wink

scar loves to wrap his tail around mumbo and grian's legs :( and he purrs super loudly (especially when cuddling them)

oh oh and mumbo has gigantic bat wings :P

but yeah that's pretty much it for now! i have already started writing a fic for this au :> hope you like it as much as i do (it's so important to me lol ;w;)

[thunderlingcloudie0fficial]

I saw a post saying that every Grian need a Mumbo then felt bad because I don’t have a Mumbo but then I realised: I AM MUMBO AND MY BFF IS GRIAN BECAUSE SHE:

>Likes parrots

>Chaotic gremlin energy

>Get called Sun(by me)

>Creative

>Talktive/People person

>Short

and I’m

>Get called vampire

>Introvert

>has black hair

>tall

>Quiet

No wonder I like platonic waffle duo

[stygiansauce]

not even gonna lie bro I almost became physically ill with excitement when I saw you answer a question and mention a southern ranchers fic that I’ve yet to hear about- I was all like “AHHHHSKKSMDKKS- I don’t feel so good :(“

I know I’m rambling but I said all that to say southern tango tek makes me ill <333344!!!! /pos ofc :)))

As a proprietor of the south it is my duty to feed the masses southern propaganda and I will do so one Southern Tango fic at a time.

I know that I have bookmarks attatched to my AO3 but there are some crazy good fics out there I need the world to know about, so if you don't mind Anon I would like to use your ask to scream into the void.

I Will Bend Every Light in This City by AutoCrafted - This is a short and sweet one shot surrounding Joel and Tango and I re-read it every other week because its beautiful and I love it.

AutoCrafted also wrote 12 Days Till Christmas a Ranchers fic where Jimmy and Tango get stuck in a Hallmark movie. its so cheesy in the best way and it doesn't help I love terrible movies.

Stretching Endless Night by tunastime - SCIFI ETHUBS FICCCCCC. I'm an enjoyer of a lot of Tunastime's fics, but this one is extra tasty.

where the world begins by waverideen - Rancher's Ranch au where Jimmy is a ghost and its so amazing? I'm not much of a crier and this fic had me pulling out tissues. One of those fics I long to have a physical book of one day.

Do you like Ethubs? Look no further than winterjan. Yall will find me writing books in the comments of their fics. Top tree author of all time for me.

as above, so below by birrdie - I will preface that ALL of birrdie's works are amazing. but as above, so below is my favorite. This is one of the few fics I've read where I had to wait for it to update. Each chapter had me on my toes, its so amazing. It's 70's detective Grian partnered with psychic Scar trying to solve a string of missing persons cases. I am big fan of "something is wrong with this town, and me" stories and this is keyboard smash level of amazing. you might recognize birddie from their zombie Au, outbreak (mczu). It's pretty popular here on tumblr and I will outwardly say that I have not, and will not read it. I read the scarian installment and missed a tag and violently sobbed. I can't put myself through that again...The Etho vampire fic was epic though, so that makes up for it. Just...go look at their AO3 its so worth it.

Of course to finish us off, I'll shout out Dirges in The Dark by WixWrites one last time, because it truly is amazing. - This is the wild west X Lovecraft cross over that Anon is talking about above :).

These are my biggest Recs right now. I have spent the last three months scraping the Ranchers tag on AO3, I'm on page 60-something now out of like 108? Idk I'm actually crazy. Enjoy the recs nerds.

[w1ngedv01d]

There's nothing I love more than Vampire Mumbo.

Combine a Terrifying Creature Of The Night with my Scatterbrained Science Man? Perfection

His face is constantly red bc he keeps coming uo with redstone projects to do outside and tries to go out and do them in the Middle of the DAY because he Forgot that's Bad for him

Grian has to offer to let Mumbo drink from HIM because he tried to ask several times and just got so awkward he was about to combust

When people comment how they're relieved he's not a scary vampire he immediately goes "I could be scary!" in a defensive tone

And no one believes him until this dumbass (/affectionate) focuses on projects for several weeks and FORGETS HE NEEDS BLOOD, then goes on a short blood hungry rampage

I love him

Please love him?

Looped Sun 17

Back to regularly scheduled programming.

Loop #462

Grian: Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy what do you mean you got a child!?!

Jimmy: Oh you know... it just happened.

Grian: ... HOW DOES IT JUST HAPPEN!?!?

Jimmy: Listen! Listen Grian. It was Tango who broke the fabric of reality.

Grian: Just... what loop did you get her from.

Jimmy: Fear and Hunger.

Grian: ... I... Jimmy mate...did you adopt the god of fear and hunger?

Jimmy: Well... Scott and Tango did too.

Grian: yhbdggfsthxayhcsdgnptsdjkogf kfarjnf ghjvJimmy Jimmy Jimmy what!?!? (Canon accurate noises)

Loop #465

Pearl: Mate, how long is this loop going to be?

Mumbo: I... have no idea.

Pearl: Ugh, why are we even in jail? I got nothing from loop memories.

Mumbo: Crimes? Probably?

Pearl: No shit.

Mumbo: Pearl!

Pearl: We should break out.

Mumbo: What!?

Pearl: I said we should break out.

Mumbo: ... Alright.

Loop #467

Scar: Grian, where did you-

Grian: Scar, this loop is going to be great!

Scar: It is?

Grian: I present to you, the tardis!

Scar: ... Oh! Is this a ...uh Doctor Who variant?

Grian: You bet it is!

Grian: So, anywhere you want to go?

Scar: Oh uh... Hmmm... I need references for a castle I'm building.

Grian: Middle ages, reinassance or?

Scar: I uh... castle? Like regular castle?

Grian: Let me think... 12th century should do.

Scar: What is that!?

Dalek: I am a Dalek.

Scar: A Daklek.

Dalek: Dalek.

Scar: Dilek? Dalk?

Grian: A Dalk!?! Pfttt-

Dalek: Exterminate!

Grian: And now is the time where we run.

Scar: Wait if you are the doctor am I a companion. Am I going to die or be stuck as a robot or something.

Grian: ... No.

Scar: Well It's just-

Grian: You aren't dying. I promise.

Grian: ... Out of all the companion's fate getting to replace the toymaker is hardly the worst one.

Scar: I didn't know vex magic could work on gods!

Grian: Eh, to be fair the whoverse gods are pretty weak compared to others.

Loop #450

Grian: I always told you that you were like a vampire!

Mumbo: ... I don't appreciate this.

Grian: Oh come on Dracula, at least you get to use new magic.

Mumbo: I can't leave during the day Grian! It's pants! I can't go on my bike trips!

Grian: I mean, can't you go during the night? It's not like anything can hurt you.

Mumbo: Of course no- ... Wait... Hmmm...

Mumbo: Grian mate, can I please come in?

Grian: Hmmm...nah.

Mumbo: G, mate, please?

Grian: Nope.

Mumbo: You spoon! Let me in!

Loop #473

Grian: You haven't named her yet? You can't possibly call her The Girl forever.

Tango: Not really, namificating is not something you can just do and she doesn't mind being referred as the Girl.

Grian: Does she have literally any other name you could use!? A nickname? A middle name? Her mother's maiden name.

Scott: Technically the Ancient One.... though the Endless if you consider that to be her mothers maiden name.

Grian: You are not naming a child The Ancient One... or the endless.

Scott: You named your children Grumbot and Jrumbot.

Grian: It's ...different!

Scott: Huh uh. Of course.

Jimmy: Grian Isn't fully wrong though.

Scott: I know... It just feels weird to think about.

Tango: Maybe we can start from her...title?

Scott: Girl or Ancient One? Both are awful names full offence.

Jimmy: Maybe Ancient can become An-something. An-uh...?

Scott: Uh...you mean something like Anne? Annie? Anita? Angela?

Jimmy: Exactly!

Tango: Hmmm... We should try asking her if any fit...

Scott: We have a name and a middle name too.

Tango: We wrote down some ideas and had her choose.

Mumbo: Oh!

Grian: Finally.

Tango: Anne Fair Tek.

Grian: That's a good name- Wait wait wait... Fair...Anne... Fair and Anne. Fear and Anne-ger...you.

Scott: Oh, he's quicker then I tought.

Grian: You named her after a pun!??! I- am... I don't know how to feel about that.

Tango: She liked Anne best ok? she chose it. I just had to at that point.

Scott: Don't tell Jimmy though, he hasn't realized it yet.

Loop #476

Pearl understood why this happened, she really did, but she also didn't think she would enjoy it, looking at her loop memories it seemed she was stuck in Double Life after winning... It was exceptionally lonely.

It had been two days when she realized she could just leave the server pretty easy, the Watchers might try to stop her but she was also a goddess multiple times over. Yet, she also wanted to see how long it took for someone to come back to search for her.

The answer was two weeks it seems, she was almost starting to consider the "leave the server" option but she was glad she didn't. Now the players here probably expected her to be insane or rabid, instead they were going to find her tending to her newest build.

The fact it took a day for them to even try to approach was indication of how scared they were of her, it was funny really, she just had a lovely day working on her garden and base during the whole thing.

Pearl: Hello there mate!

Scott: Pearl!?

Pearl: That's me!

Scott: ... You aren't... attacking me?

Pearl: Oh why would I? You sacrificed myself for me! It's not like you do it for everyone.

Pearl didn't want to hurt Scott, even an unawoken version of him, this didn't mean sshe couldn't use her knowledge of him to be annoying. And she could see him react to her comment, acting ignorant was so fun sometimes.

Scott: O-oh. I see you built a new base?

Pearl: Yeah, had nothing to do for a while.

Scott: I- ... Sorry-

Pearl: Oh don't worry. Want some apple juice?

Scott: Apple juice!?!

Pearl: It's like water? But with apple flavour and made from crushed apple?

Scott: I know what apple juice is Pearl, I just didn't -

Pearl: That's good then, want some?

Scott: ... Uh...sure?

In the end her and Scott talked a bit and then he left very confused... Then after a bit came Grian and she decided she was going to have some fun, just a little bit.

Pearl: Hey there mate, want something to drink?

Grian: uhh... Sure?

Pearl: We got juice, tea, water, spiders, coffee-

Grian: Spiders?

Pearl: Oh sure here you go!

Grian: Wait no that's not what I meant-

But she had already started poaring spiders into his cup.

Loop #479

Grian: I had the weirdest variant loop.

Mumbo: What was it?

Grian: It was Last Life except for one thing. One horrible thing.

Mumbo: ...??

Grian: You know that time I took your mustache?

Mumbo: ... Yeah? Grian: Everyone. And I mean everyone had a mustache except for you.

Mumbo: ... Ew.

Grian: I know! I don't know which is worse! Your face is all like weird without a mustache.

Mumbo: ...Thanks...

Grian: No offence.

Mumbo: Just go on G.

Grian: But seeing Jimmy with it was almost as cursed! It doesn't look right on him or Cleo or ...Etho! Etho had the mustache over his mask!!

Mumbo: ... How?

Grian: I don't know! That's the problem!

Loop #481

Grian: How do you even have Anne join the server? Most of the time whitelist is strict.

Tango: Made her a full player a few loops ago and then just tell X that she's my daughter.

Grian: And he believes it?

Tango: It's not a lie.

Grian: Eh. Guess not.

Tango: And even if he didn't he might be the owner but I'm an admin as well and the other admins would back me up too.

Grian: ...

Tango: I want to ask you a favour.

Grian: ... Let's hear it.

Tango: You... you know fear magic don't you? From your TMA loop as The Eye?

Grian: So Scott told you about that? Yeah.

Tango: Anne... she might not have been to the depth but I know that despite still being a little girl she is in part the god of fear and hunger she can become.

Grian: ... So?

Tango: I just want you to teach her, Scott will help as well since he was of The Vast in that loop.

Grian: Sure, god of fear and hunger implies a second part too doesn't it?

Tango: We are working on it... We might ask Famine from the good omens loop but it's a bit more complicated.

Grian: Alright, I'll do it.
