I'm a bit of a character outfit/costume nerd and I was wondering if you had anything to share about what went in to making the outfits for The New Order's season 2 outfits? I can tell that Lukas and Petra keep the more "hero" appearance because they are still active adventures, while Axel and Olivia have more casual clothes becuase their focus has shifted from being adventurers to being leaders of Redstonia and Boomtown respectively. (Also whoever decided that Axel should wear a flannel and a skull shirt was so right and deserves cookies.)
The goal for season 2’s costume design were to reflect two things:
1. How things had changed in the characters’ lives since the first season - Lukas is still an adventurer, but a new one focused on stories and exploration, hence his new (frankly, anime-inspired) outfit. Petra is still clinging to the past which is why her armor is still the same one from the portal arc, just endlessly repaired and cobbled back together. Axel and Olivia have traded adventuring for running their towns, so their clothes reflect that… and then of course Ivor is a ninja now. Naturally.
2. How the server/world on the whole had changed and evolved - Something we never got the chance to show is that Beacontown is a hub city connected to every other town by a complex subway and mail tube system. It’s even connected to worlds within the portal network thanks to complicated and well-organized use of the enchanted flint & steel + the atlas of the old builders. This means that people from all over the world(s) are coming together in Beacontown to make it a melting pot of all kinds of styles and appearances. Characters like Radar in his hoodie + tie combo, Jack’s urban pirate look, Stella’s power suit.. these are some of the looks meant to reflect the increasing diversity of Jesse’s world and move the art direction away from some of the semi-medieval/fantasy vibes that were still hanging around.
I just want y’all to know that one time during lockdown I played a lot of Minecraft because I had nothing better to do and then later I was going to go into my room after a shower so I could go back to being a hermit but it was dark so I just thought “oop, can’t go in there, there’ll be skeletons spawning there and they’ll shoot at me”
And for LIKE FIVE WHOLE SECONDS I didn’t question it and I just turned on the lights and walked out into the living room to wait it out, just thankful I had my pajamas on already so I didn’t have to fight off the shooty skeletons in my dark closet where there might be some creepers too
And then all of a sudden I was like “Wait what the frig skeletons aren’t real” and then just went back into my room
And I think about that a lot. So if ANY OF YOU dare to think that I have any more than three and a half braincells on a really good day, just please remember this and know that you are sorely mistaken
As a note... it showed up in the Billford tags anyway. Oops. ^^;
Oh my goodness
I don't know what to do
I don’t know how I feel about this . . . On one hand, it’s not exactly inaccurate. It technically was about billford. On the other, I don’t want anyone thinking I actually ship them
If I ever say I ship Bill with ANY member of the Pines family, it’s an imposter. Shoot them. Preferably with fire. Lots of fire.

As someone with a few years experience in martial arts with sparring, I would like to explain some
yelp of pain--like "ah!" And then a groan like "ohh" as the nausea hits
Curl protectively over their gut
Arms out to stop any incoming punches
After expelling air from the impact, they may not be able to breathe in. They may just lose some of their wind, or all of it.
If whumpee is trained (or used to it!) they may know to breathe out a little on impact, softening the blow and reducing the amount of air they lose
It hurts, so victim is going to be at least grimacing and guarding their stomach
Losing your wind is disorienting and panic-inducing, even for someone with training
A hard enough punch may be enough to drop whumpee, especially if: they are skinny (less padding), their body is trying to conserve oxygen (like they lost ALL their wind at once), they are panicked/outmatched (to protect themselves), or they're going to puke
Puking can also happen a bit afterward
Meant to post this a while ago but couldn't find it. This was just me messing around (I can draw better than this lol)
Lake: I'm really glad "fight me" has replaced "sue me" because I don't have money but I do have fists and I'm always angry
when people put "trigger warning" on their content without specifying what the trigger warning is for
This has been on my mind and the brain rot of mcsm is strong I need to talk about it with someone who's a fan of the game anyway
I don't know if I'll get over the fact Jesse doesn't process the fact that they died they just be shocked for a minute then just brush it off
LIKE HELLO YOU JUST DIED?!??
YEAH dude just keeps going… tbf if you’re talking about the moment in ep8 he didn’t get much chance to process it anyways since he’s gotta get straight back into the fight, but the weight of it all probably hit him hard on the night he got home once everything’s settled :( same goes for the rest of the group too
We need to talk more about the redstone aunts. Get the redstone geniuses of their individual times, Ellegaard, Harper and Xara in a lab together (with Olivia shadowing and also spontaneously combusting from the fangirling) and there will be things invented no one has ever seen before in mcsm. Be prepared for a speedrun of multiple-back-to-back technological revolutions and also intergalactic space travel in like a month. That or the three of them would end up killing each other and the planet at large first (mad geniuses are notoriously bad at getting along with other self-proclaimed geniuses). It's a match made in either the Aether or the Nether.
