The way Grian IMMEDIATELY logged on to roast him

[ivys-garden]

Going away for a week. Before I go I'm gonna do some quick deduction of the Ore Snatcher case, going through the evidence for and against every hermit

Confirmed Innocent:

Cleo

Scar

Pearl (admitted it wasn't her on Reddit, thanks Jack)

● Ren - husbands don't do that to each other. Also this isn't the kinda prank Ren does. Through him and False were acting suspicious in Pearls new vid, perhaps the Neighbourhood is up to Something

● False - she was kinda sus in pearls vid, is kinda a prank she'd pull. Probably would only be involved if all the neighbourhood was involved

● Beef - has a motive through big wood, but his pranks are more in your face than this

● Skizz - see Beef

● Mumbo - not his style of prank (honestly he doesn't do much at all). wouldn't get involved unless someone started it first

● Grian - absolutely would not keep it a secret.

● Gem - isn't afraid of Doc and might want to prove it, but she wouldn't be this subtle about it. She also wouldn't keep it a secret, she'd tell everyone

● Wels - hasn't been playing much atm

● Etho - wouldn't commit to it this long

● Jevin - could be him. No evidence either way

● Xb - see jevin

● Xisuma - only involved if its the neighbourhood who's doing it together

● Stress - see Xisuma.

● Tango - see jevin.

● Impulse - see jevin.

● Bdubbs - could be trying to get a new case for court. But he'd never be this subtle about it, besides he'd be the one getting sued which ruins the point

●Keralis - see jevin

● Zedaph - is busy being silly

● Joel - would not keep it up this long. Would brag about it

● Hypno - see jevin

● Joe - see jevin

● Cub - most people say its him, he's got the redstone knowledge to bypass an alarm and is trying to frame Scar.

But: how does framing Scar help him if he's the Snatcher? It's drawing MORE attention to him and he doesn't have to be the Snatcher to frame Scar. And aside from his word the Snatcher has done nothing to frame Scar (the typo was never confirmed to be an attempt to frame sacrifice, only theorised. If it was a serious attempt there'd be way more and the messages would be spread over multiple signs)

You also don't need redstone knowledge to bypass docs alarm or to break the Ore blocks. Aside from this nothing points to it being Cub

● Iskall - this is absolutely his style of prank. We know he can keep pranks secret for a long time due to the prank war. We know he plans his pranks beforehand. He is confident enough to steal a block as Doc is working on the redstone. He has been undergoing “studies” of the hermits,this could be another he's doing. He COMITS to the hit hard, Joel's git the love letters to prove it.

So yeah, top subjects ATM

1)Multiple People (either as a group or as independent agents)

2)Iskall

3)The Neighbourhood, Collectively (Cleos statement would still be true because THEY wouldn't be the Ore Snatcher, the NEIGHBOURHOOD is the Ore snatcher)

Wildcard Pick: someone doing a mission possible. Perhaps even Doc himself testing his audience

ok i'm not done your keralis?? is perfect??? just. the design is Perfectly proportioned to be both spooky and very adorable. and also the hermits' wardrobe??? i would like it???? all the designs are stunning?????? and the fact that you're so encouraging of people who wanna slap their sonas into the universe that there's a whole structure to do it with???????? you're just. you're great, your au is great, i haven't seen you get enough praise recently, so have some from me. ok time to draw bdubbs

I’m glad you like so many aspects of this au! I do all of this because it interests me and inspires me to make more art, so when other people react to what I do with as much enthusiasm as I have it makes it really special to me. And thank you again for all of the compliments, they’ve made my day! :D All I want to do with my art and this universe is encourage other people to tap into their own creativity. This could be by sending me an ask filled with lore, drawing a scene inspired by a piece of lore, designing their own space outlaw to fit into this universe, writing a story based on these characters, or more. Anything you guys do that’s somehow inspired by this au makes my heart full and brings a smile to my face! :D

POV: You find out you’re pregnant, and it’s the moment you’ve waited for your entire life. You had the image in your head of how you’d tell the father & how he’d react, how you’d hug and kiss in excitement, and tell your families in the cutest way. But instead when you told him, he turned white and his blood ran cold. No excitement, no happiness, nothing. His family threatened you, your mom forces a wedding, and shockingly your toxic father is all you have. And then weeks later, life has other plans for that baby. Imagine how that destroys you, and how much you’d blame the father and his family even though logically it’s not his fault. But that time you had pregnant wasn’t spent happy and enjoying the magic your body was creating, because he wasn’t happy with you, and your magic was ruined. That moment is forever burned into the back of my mind, so every pregnancy announcement I see, I break down because I’m jealous they got what I didn’t, and they got to take that baby home. I want that. And it’s breaking me quite honestly. Every day it’s a new announcement or video online, and I break a little more inside. He had his moments of happiness though, and I remember one night at bdubbs he genuinely seemed happy, with not an ounce of fear; and I felt like things were okay. But then life ruined us. And that’s all I have to hold onto.😔

And I never got to heal from that because I just kept rolling with the punches and making things worse, and then trying to fix all I’d damaged for so long, I never got to focus on me and healing that pain and resentment. I need to fucking heal from that time in my life and all that pain. And quarantine has given me nothing but time to go through that pain and deal with it because what else is there to do but dwell on my mistakes AND my loss, anger, resentment, and bitterness. I’ve been mourning the loss of my daughter, her father, our dog, and our family. It AAALLLL hit me at once. The drugs helped numb me so I could think and not feel. And now I don’t have that so I’m just sitting in my sorrows trying to stay off social media because I don’t need anybody else’s drama added and I don’t wanna see the world falling apart, I don’t want to talk to anyone, I don’t want to do anything. Gotta do what I gotta do now to get myself out of bed and get better so I can get back to life and being happy. I wanna start trying for a baby again, but need a man and need to be happy for that so yeah fuck quarantine, but thank you quarantine for finally giving me time to grieve and mourn and go a little bit psychotic and letting me lock myself in my own psych ward so I don’t have to share a room with a cat killer again in a real one🥴 Imma be okay one day. And imma forgive them all one day.

[redstone-sun]

Yes. Also plz look after yourself hon you're way too important to be laid flat I hope you feel better soon

alsdkjfs thank you so much???ANYWAY. SO. Grian and Mumbo are the main characters because of course they are. The POV sticks mainly to Mumbo because of course it does. Grian is a mostly-private detective who runs around London solving cases(most of the time) and at some point decides that he should hire someone to write down his exploits. Enter Mumbo, a struggling author, who jumps at the idea to get PAID for something. They solve a couple cases (including the Jangler case) before Grian gets the bright idea to solve the biggest mystery of the century: the body swapping serial killer Jack-of-Smiles. Of course, with London the way it is, it’s very hard to kill someone(that’s just how London works) but Jack makes do. The two set out to solve the case and run into a ton of hermits along the way(I have a character post I’ll reblog here in a sec). Cub and Scar run the Vexation and are allied with the Masters of the Bazaar. Joe is a poor writer who is rich in favors and secrets. Iskall is a constable who is a physical representation of “I can’t break the law, I AM the law.” Stress is an overworked courier who is sick of rats. Xisuma is a crime syndicate leader. False is a ring fighter and a member of the Black Ribbon which is basically a murder club. Doc is a doctor in…something��and is Seeking the Name. Ren is a young rake who runs messages for Doc and is a high ranking official in the currency exchange. Special guest appearances by Keralis the devil who is also known as Rally and Bdubbs(Braeden “Doubles” Oleander) the Seeker who returned from his quest with the Sevenfold Knock as well as Kakujo(not a hermit), who hangs out at Polythreme and has a very fast ship. UH YEAH THAT’S ABOUT EVERYBODY I’VE INCLUDED SO FAR, ASKS WELCOME

Chapter 2

there ain’t nothing better than you, got me watching your every move

Shay

I woke up today as the most chipper person in the world. The day is finally here!! I made the dub club. 20 years old. 2 decades old. I swear when you say your she in decades it makes it sound like you way older than you really are. I got to sleep so late last night my phone was being blown up by my best friends, Kammy and Ashlee. The two of them alone had my phone lit. I’m pretty sure they were competing on who could tell me happy birthday the most within the first hour. Weirdos.

I’m super excited about today even though I won’t be doing anything, but I’m slightly sad because of the message I got from Keith this morning:

7:58am: HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL. I love you so so much. I’m pissed at myself for not being there with you today. I hate not bringing in these moments with you, but I promise when I get there we’re gonna celebrate. Me and you. I still have to give you your gifts.I love you again. Have fun today. Send me pictures.

I love him so much. The organization that gave Keith a scholarship to come to this school asked him to speak at their banquet and it so happens to be Saturday. He was going to just skip it and come be with me but I told him to handle his business. Even though I want him with me, we can always celebrate. We live 3 hours away from the school and he works Mon-Friday from 8am to 5pm so he can’t just come see me and then leave. He’ll be back when everyone else comes back, next Friday.

Keith swears he’s my sugar daddy. I sent him a picture of the pink fur Fenty slides, next thing you know he ordered them and sent them my way. They should be here tomorrow actually. He got me other stuff, but I won’t know until he gets here I guess.

I got out of bed after replying to my text messages and completed my morning routine. I decided to just put a grey jumpsuit, my pink adidas, and one of my jean jackets. Its gonna be hot out but I’m gonna be sitting in training until like 5pm and those rooms are cold af. I’m still cute, jacket or no jacket. I put on some lip gloss and some mascara. I threw my hair in a ponytail for the day, I really didn’t know what to do with it. I grabbed my things and met up with my coworkers so we can go the stupid training.

Once I got downstairs all 9 of my coworkers screamed happy birthday and damn near gave me a heart attack. They’re so great. I really didn’t expect any of them to remember. One of my favorite coworkers Maria gave me a chocolate cupcake and I swear I nearly hugged her to death, I love chocolate cupcakes. Maria is literally the sweetest girl ever I kid you not. She’d probably cry if I told her I hated chocolate. She’d be shitty because she just wanted to get me to smile. After all the birthday wishes we headed to training.

—– My phone was ringing all through the first leg of training. I been waiting for lunch all morning just to call people back. Lucky for me, today is a short day. We’re gonna be getting out of training at 3pm instead. The last presented had to reschedule.

I decided to call Keith back first being that I know his lunch break will be ending soon.

“Happy birthday to my favorite girl!” He answered.

“Thank you baby, how’s work?”

“Eh, work is work. Missing you so I’m not feeling it today. How’s your day going? You gonna do anything?” I told him I probably wasn’t and he told be not to be lame on my bday. We talked for the next 10 minutes then he had to head back to work. He’s right though, I should definitely figure out something to do.

I sat with the other staff members for lunch and we actually talked about things we should do to celebrate the birthday of myself and two other staff members. Our birthdays are around the same time. We decided to go to BDubbs and that’ was fine wit me cause Um… 60 cent wings plus broke college student sounds like a plan that works. ———–

Why is that when you look good and you post pictures on Snapchat, twitter or instagram your old niggas start to hit you up? I posted a flick on twitter, 10 minutes later my ex started texting me. Like what do you want? I hate having to remind these dudes that I’m a taken girl. Like you know. You just wanna keep pressing me.

Anyways, I just left BDubbs and it’s time to talk to daddy again before I go to sleep. He told me to call so.

“Baby remember when I told you that I’m waiting on everything to be finalized with the apartment And I might need a place to stay for a while? Well yea I’m gonna need to stay with you. Is that still okay?” He said.

“Yea. You’re lucky I have my own room. We just gotta figure out how to get you in the building all the time. You have to live in the building to key in now. Then changed the rules to the residents halls. If you don’t live here you can’t swipe in. We’ll figure it out. How long you gotta stay with me though?”

“I’m not sure I’m assuming 2 or 3 weeks.”

Three… weeks…. we have never lived together nor have we ever spent every day for three weeks together. Hopefully this works out cause that’s a long time for two people who have different living habits.
