"Iskall's thigh is... juicy"

"Yeah, Ren... Ren knows about my thigh"

[riacte]

some thoughts about some ren ships:

ren/martyn: it's fine and it's cool until springtime comes and there's a melancholy in the tepid, humid air that clings to your skin and clogs up your lungs. and it's really fine until you start planting carrots again in the way he did and you realise all the small moments in your life have been defined by those few months you spent with him. there's a before and an after. his influence has melted so casually in your daily life that you don't realise it. it takes years for the intensity and absence to sink in even though it's always been there. and you finally understand. what you felt on those carrot fields was love. (note the past tense. note that you're a liar.)

ren/doc: words cannot describe what happened in that damned van. they're not husbands, they're FREAKS. they almost wish they did romantic shit like stargazing and going on dates but it's just a lot of being cooped up in the tiny van and the intimacy of repairing each other's prosthetics and lying in the same bed and staring at each other for hours while listening to nothing but the hum of the air conditioner and each other's breathing. because they're "bros".

ren/cleo: they practice "on and off platonic smooching". whatever that even means. physically affectionate to the point of being disgusting. they can stop and start back again at any time but somehow it's healthy. despite all the intense pda and cuddling and shit, no one emerges emotionally devastated. their dms are just spamming heart emojis.

ren/false: he's been lowkey crushing on her for so long he's genuinely forgotten about it. from her point of view, he's been acting this way around her since forever so she's also forgotten about it. they exist in this miraculous and meticulous limbo in which no one crosses a line because they don't think about it. they have the keys to each other's bases and water each other's flowers. one day they wake up and make each other breakfast and look out at their beautiful mess of a shared garden because it's their sixtieth day of accidental cohabitation and go "how did we get here again".

ren/iskall: i know it's long gone and the magic's not here no more and we can't go back to who we were. maybe i'll joke about "wrong person, right time" but that feels like stabbing myself in the chest with a dull knife. i look at you and from the bottom of my heart, i feel love. regardless of what kind of love it is. when i see you smile, i can still feel it against my lips. so maybe we still wear each other's clothes. so maybe you still drink from that ugly mug i got as a gag anniversary gift. so maybe you still consider sending me a love letter as a joke. best friends to lovers to neighbours. jokes and casual flirtation and even more casual declarations of love. i love you and you love me but we both know it's not the same anymore. still, it was good. for a while, we were good.

A discord server Im in did this thing where we choose 10-15 of our fanfics we wrote and pick a random line to put here so Ima do that on tumblr

1. “Darkness”

Grian couldn't breath correctly. He kept hyperventilating, his vision blurred, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest. Why? Why must this happen to me?

2. The Benefits of Dehydration

"I think Mumbo's probably still looking for you, y'know" he jokes. "Ughhhhh i don't wanna gOoo" "Grian you have to at some point"

3. No I’m Not

The night proceeded normally.

If you count all the lights being on and no one sleeping, normal.

4. Reunited

It was hopeless. He was far away already and Grian didn't know what just happened. He decided to enter Hermitcraft, and go sit in his base for a bit to process what happened. He didn't even bother reading the messages on his communicator.

5. Race Against the Clock

I hate my life.

Okay that's a little much, but I hate this disease.

Yea that's better.

6. Heather

"Iskall... would you like to dance with me?" Ren nervously asks him. It hurts to see, but even though I'm saddened by it I'm happy for Ren. "Yes of course!" Iskall perks up.

7. New Years

"Why am I even going to a New Years party?" Grian groans. "Because it's fun. And I want cookies" scar answers him, as if he was ready to say 'I told you so' once Grian goes and enjoys it. (By force if needed.)

8. Sleepover

"So uh my kitchen's on fire."

"Grian... are you serious?" I could hear him trying to stifle a laugh. "eee-yep" I answered. "Alright I'll come over and help you put it out" and with that he hung up.

9. Our Spot

"Doc!" I screamed happily without thinking about anything else in that moment. "dude, did you decorate this!?"

"Uhm.. yeah! I did!"

"This is awesome! Why did you though?" I continued, slowly walking away in awe.

10. Two all-nighters

It was an odd sort of curse the terraformer had, but every night that he had a nightmare he'd come to Grian and feel better.

11. Chase With Fear

She rang the doorbell and heard Enid's mom yell for Enid to get it. "Ugh okay" Enid replied. She opened the door and started with, "if you're looking for Lucille Sinclair, you're at the wrong house," she sounded annoyed.

12. Operation EX

I screamed at the sight. I'm not sure why. No one could hear me. I couldn't even hear me. It took me what felt like ages to realize I was crying. I knew I wouldn't be able to do anything from the void. I couldn't message anyone, only receive messages. I couldn't come back to the surface. So then why was I now sad my brother was gone?

As much as I love "canon compliance"/compliance to real life in RPF fics, I think that it'd be so fun to get silly with it.

Make Ren a werewolf. Yes the real guy! He can still live in England and do British things, but he's just a werewolf. How would that affect his day to day life? How would that affect his relationships? Maybe that's why he doesn't really date. Maybe he gets so stressed out every months or so, because on full moons he needs to physically restrain himself.

Maybe one night, when he's lost track of the lunar cycle, he's on call with someone he's been harboring a crush on for too long. That night, the full moon blooms into color, and shines on him. Ren of course, doesn't know what to do, so he ends the call abruptly and closes his shades.

It's not long until this person starts to ask questions. Is Ren okay? What happened? He ignores them until he's all wolfed out of course, but you know how Ren is. He'll probably ignore them a bit longer.

Days come and go, and Ren ignores them for as long as possible, as well as any other messages from their mutual friends. Until he receives a message from his brother of all people, asking him to talk. So he does. And they agree that Ren should just... tell them about the werewolf stuff. Worst case scenario, they don't believe him.

So he does. And they listen.

And most of them are skeptical at best, Ren can't actually be a werewolf after all. But one of them does believe him, and of course, it's his crush.

Of course they're concerned about how he's treating his body during the full moons. With the chains he straps his body to the bed with, and the scratch marks he leaves on himself by accident. So they suggest coming over and... "helping".

For some reason, Ren lets them.

Ren lets them lay him on the bed, and lets them tie up his wrists, ankles, and thighs in rope. He can't move, but it's comfortable this time. It's actually quite nice. So Ren lets them over during a full moon. And the next. And the next one too.

He can feel himself grow calmer, even as the moon starts to grow bright. He's comfortable with them in his house, tying him up, and leaving kisses down his back as he starts to transform.

It's... nice. To finally be loved.

Like how he's always wanted to be.

OKOK SO.. During season 6 Ren was the very first person out during demise and he like started going ape trying to kill the other hermits, mainly by silly traps. Kinda just saying he was collecting everyone’s souls. After demise was over he gave his soul to Iskall. He lived in Joe Hills graveyard where he practiced juggling. He was so silly and I miss him dearly.

i think grimdog and zedeath should fuse and terrorise the living together <3

also. giving your soul to another man 🤔🤔🤔🤔 kinda gay.

[babygirlbdubs]

Lets Talk About The Perception Of Ren This Season.

Going to try say this as politely as possible, this season it just feels like some people are Infantilizing and really boiling down the relationships he holds with certain hermits to something that it's not + turning Ren into a one dimensional person and character.

I wanted to try address a couple things in this post regarding that; How the fanbase has been reacting to how hermits are treating him on camera mainly (Long Post, so it's under Keep Reading <3).

Regarding how the neighbourhood of ministries have been treating Ren;

They are all very close friends. and have been for up to 10 or so years. Please, for the love of everything holy watch old series like Foolcraft, Hermitcraft UHCs, the Renskall Podcast, older seasons of Hermitcraft etc. Hell, even watch my favourite VOD; Sea Of Thieves. You quickly learn the dynamic they have, and the fact they all go off on playful banter (and also re: British Humour/Love that Cleo and False have mentioned off-handedly in streams and videos before being typically brash and sarcastic. Also not to mention how Martyn is British; I'll get to that later though.) There's a really specific dynamic where Iskall, False and Stress are close friends with him and care about him deeply; and Ren has openly talked about how much the Hermits have helped him out during IRL struggles. The roles and performance they put on for the camera is not going to always reflect how they treat each other off camera, let alone show how much they all deeply care for one another. Cleo has outright mentioned how much they care about Ren on stream too even. A lot of hermits have mentioned how much they appreciate Ren, and have complimented him + said affirmations on stream.

Regarding hermits ribbing him/not playing along;

If something happened that was uncomfortable for Ren or Too Much, it would've been mentioned after and not included in anyone's POVs. Ren's whole kinda thing is being a Theatre Kid, his whole thing is being dramatic and taking up roles for the sake of creating fun storylines and contents for the other hermits to either play along with or turn into something else. If a hermit took it a way Ren wasn't happy with He Would Bring It Up To The Hermits Because They Are Adults And Communicate Amongst Each Other. Like I mentioned above, the banter is very much more part of british humour and culture/attitude, as well as their general dynamic going on.

I've even seen concerns of it being bullying, which is far from the case. I think a lot of us longer term viewers have a better grasp of how much they all care about each other and how deep the friendship goes.

The other concern I have is how like, the joke of him being a 'Wet Pathetic Dog' is kind of going a bit overboard to the point where it's the only defining factor people are mentioning about him? and that like, so much so it genuinely feels more like the fanbase is infantilizing him or making him out to be this damsel in distress who needs to be rescued. He's a grown adult man, who can more than easily speak up for himself and advocate for himself. Minimizing him down to this pathetic useless character who can't do anything is just rude and misses the point of the characters he tends to play when doing storylines. He tries his hardest to organize server events and include all the hermits in things, which is both great for content and a great show of how much the hermits are willing to go along with his ideas and either see where it plays out or evolve it further. Mind you there's always MULTIPLE if not ALL the hermits being willing to play along in these events!! from the mining event this season to the king Ren arc last season all the way to log fellas in season 4.
