This Canary's had enough

rewatching limited life

[tatretot]

nightmare. or, a “double victory” and its consequences

[bad-traffic-smp-ideas]

Wildcard idea: they have a little buddy following them wherever they go and is also linked to the player's lives, all of them look like little mascots representing each lifer's fanon theme/current skin (ex: grian's being a parrot, bigb's being a small creaking, you get the idea)

All of them are either a: voiced by oli pitching his voice higher and saying generic lines that each lifer is known for (needed to add in oli somehow, can you blame me?) or b: tiny, high-pitched snippets of things the lifers have said within the series

Bonus thing that i just wanted to add for fun: all the dead lifer's "buddies" do exist, they either spawned near the place of death/grave or found wandering around the map and they seem very sad that their "parent" died

This would probably be a nightmare to set-up now that i think about it..

I've rambled for too long now, see ya :>

So, like...

[ooooo-mcyt]

Seeing Etho constantly fighting his urges to protect and take care of his teammates because they don't want it this season.

And he's constantly using his side alliance with Gem and Joel as an outlet and deferring to doing even the silliest things for Bdubs when he does ask for something.

Because the Tuff Guys are supposed to take care of themselves, but it's always come so much more naturally to Etho to take care of other people.

been thinking FAR too much about wildlife after that finale but somehow i have gone back to the beginning with mumbo and skizz’s deaths

and mumbo’s was a big moment with the breaking of the canary curse and i saw a lot of discussion about how “the coal miner loved the canary so much he sacrificed himself to keep the bird alive” cause of all the coal miner mumbo theories and i absolutely LOVE this but i’ve also been thinking about all the other curses, in particular grians and what if grians curse interrupted jimmy’s?

because he created the wildcards and knew when they were happening, grian was so much more involved with the “creation of this world” that because his character was so intensely woven into the fabric of it, his curse (killing his allies) was held together more strongly than any of the others to the point where it overwhelmed jimmy’s curse and accidentally prevented it. it could also be seen as a “punishment” from the watchers for grian meddling so much this series that they set off his curse first because they wanted him to be alone and completely forgot about jimmy. thats also fitting because his superpower was invisibility because he was forgot by the watchers/"""script""".

anyway, to conclude, that's why grian wanted to kill jimmy so badly and why he knew it had to be by his hand, because even though the curse was forgotten some part of grian knew jimmy being alive Wasn't Right and that he would have to be removed by grian personally to fix the "Mistake"

[thatstoomanysausages]

Anyone making some insane connections right now?

Grian having the widow curse? A name which correlates to a type of deadly spider? And he names his doom tower the ‘Spider’s Nest’?

Grian, I love you for every name you drop, because they are all bangers.

[kianaisspiraling]

Okay so it doesn't seem like the Spanners are gonna disband, but I am also noticing potent foreshadowing for a Bad Boys-like end, in which Grian is alone and has to hunt for a new alliance. It would be sad but interesting to see how that goes for him

Also, I am slightly disappointed to no longer believe in the possibility of a Jimmy win solely because his team-up this season would make it hilariously ironic. Buddy got down to red at one point, I do NOT have faith in him (affectionate)

Finally, I have a question:

You and a super intelligent snail both get 1 million dollars, and you both become immortal, however you die if the snail touches you. It always knows where you are and slowly crawls toward you. What's your plan?

mumbos breakdown over his tower illustrated !!! i posted this on youtube too so if you wanna go over there to see it, links under the cut!

[definitelynotshouting]

hello gang its been far too long since you received scarian kisses from me

luckily i am here to change that<3 massive shout out to @sculkshrieking for giving me this idea and @shaklyart for the absolutely GORGEOUS animatic that fully sparked this discussion in the first place, seriously please go give it some love guys its incredible. Anyway woe, TJ Shouting smooches be upon ye >:]

"... Don't kiss me," Grian breathes, so low and heady that it fills Scar's head with light, a clean and dizzy wash over everything still lingering between them. Here, in this microscopic space, there are no grains of sand; no loneliness; no secrets; no cruel and counting timer. Only them, and a warmth beginning to boil, rolling in with the same potent energy of a summer thunderstorm.

And it's so, so easy to let Scar's task do the work for him.

So Scar tips forward, closing the space between them once more— catches Grian's lower lip between his teeth, rolling it into his mouth with slow, deliberate motions. Grian's breath audibly hitches; both hands lift to frame Scar's face, tangle in his hair, and the firm tug of fingers gripping him at the roots has Scar gasping into the kiss. He retaliates by releasing Grian's bottom lip, only to shift the angle to catch his cupid's bow, nipping at the sensitive skin— until Grian sucks in another shaky breath, fingers tightening, mouth falling lax against his. Scar soothes away the sharp sting, folding wordless apologies against Grian's mouth in a language beyond words, beyond any buzzing syllable that will never, ever leave his throat again.

Grian pushes in further, a ragged noise punching from his throat; the answering riptide of fervent affection threatens to drown Scar in liquid gold, and he drags Grian as close as he can get him, lips sliding leisurely over his, arms wrapping tight around his waist. Like this, they could be one person. Like this, there is only the aching stretch of their own bleeding hearts, a horizon of broken stitches— and the desperate, clawing urge to sew them back together again. To make them whole.

When they part, it's by less than an inch; Grian breathes in deep, the same air Scar exhales, and his lips brush Scar's with each tentative sway into each other's orbit, scattering electric sparks in their wake.

Grian's voice is, miraculously, even quieter and headier than before. "Don't—" His voice catches, cracking the word in half. "Don't kiss me." He leans forward, brushing his own featherlight kiss against Scar's lips. Back. "Don't kiss me." Swaying forth again, another kiss; this one just as a soft, just as syrupy. When Grian pulls back once more, his eyes are lidded. Then, pretenses stripped as clean from his voice as sun-bleached bone, he begs— he breathes: "Scar, please— just kiss me."

And Scar— bathed in the gilded sunset of their kiss-bruised memories, with his heart a hummingbird thrum in his throat— throws his task to the wind, and obligingly falls back in.

I want to make a full in depth post later explaining how scar could be each of them respectfully.

Also I need to say SOMETHING because I've been tormented by this for the past few days after having been made aware but yandere Pearl makes me so upset, imo it's such a disservice to her character!! That or other interpretations that just make her out to be evil. I understand the appeal of the trope and for AUs and stuff, ofc go wild!! But that is very much not what happened in DL canon and anyone who thinks that she's only interesting with the yandere trope attached is a fake fan!! Pearl was labelled crazy and of course she leaned into it, because what else does she do? Nobody wants her, everyone believes she's lost it, so she might as well!! At the very least it serves as some intimidation that Pearl CAN use to her advantage but did she ever want to? She's not crazy for Scott, not by any stretch of the imagination. She wanted some kind of approval, or acceptance. She didn't just want Scott to herself or whatever argument people try to make and she most certainly wasn't evil or cruel. Many times when people were getting up to mischief, Pearl didn't take large part if at all even if she was there. She often played along and, yeah, she played along, like most Lifers would, no? I can see how her behaviour could be observed as obsessive when she keeps trying to settle near Scott but, I don't even know how to articulate my thoughts other than to reinforce that that wasn't her obsessing over Scott. I suppose you could view Pearl as evil depending entirely on what you classify as evil in a death game where most everyone has to kill anyway, and where a lot of people commit arson and stuff (Joel killed some Jellies, loved to bully Jimmy, retaliated having the Relationship burnt down by burning every other establishment he could, is he also evil? What makes Pearl evil? Does she just get called that more because Joel is expected to be a menace by default?), but there is so much more nuance there than some form of "she flipped on a dime in session 1 and immediately became a crazy ex after a breakup". But you know what, that's what Scott wanted people to believe and if anyone in the fandom does then I have news for you

Also I'm not trying to say that playing a villain character is bad (Scott is such a villain though not at all a plainly visible one, and he's very compelling as a character) nor am I trying to make Pearl out to be some totally innocent sweetpea. Or maybe I am. #Pearl did literally nothing wrong to warrant this (but like, art of her being girlboss and stuff goes hard still, she OWNED the scene still when she embraced the label. She was mad cool, but it's not "being evil" that makes a character mad cool)

(PS don't take this too seriously, although I do heavily disagree with this interpretation personally, I'm not police and also I love all the Lifers including Scott dearly. Reminder that this is just about the characters they play and it's reasonable for viewers to believe his story foremost if they've only watched his POV and such, I think)

Hey I saw ur reblog on that post about Grian being a girl for a minute straight and. Can I ask about the containment breach video with Maui where people thought he was a trans girl??? I am so confused and so curious. Did you ever find it?

OKAY SO BASICALLY. I have not found it. Weeps. IF ANYONE HAS THE POST I BEG FOR IT!!

It's a video of Maui in Grian's yard while he's petting her and cooing sweet cat adorations at her. The video is just that, she's being a sweet cat and he's being a good cat parent. The most you see of him is his hand. It got reuploaded, and that should've been that. But people started reblogging it joking about how his voice was really high pitched and he sounded really girly, and the clip was not really recognizably mcyt, so it ended up breaching containment. Because its a cute cat video. People love that shit.

So in the reblogs you get people going "I thought this was a cute trans girl playing with her cat but apparently it's a minecraft youtuber???" And obviously people went batshit over that because holy fuck thats so funny. Grian girl moment!!

I swear on my left asscheek this post is real. Unless I like. Fucking hallucinated it or something.

Hopefully someone finds it!! Glad I've gotten you invested along with me!
