I Have Been Figuring Out How Mine-imator Works And This Is What I Create

Headcanon that Harper loves listening to Ivor’s rambles because she was isolated for so long and it’s comforting hearing someone else’s voice, like a constant reassurance that she isn’t alone anymore and accompanied by someone that adores her unconditionally.

I got Journal 3 for Christmas and I need everybody to know that Ford has drank human blood. Or consumed it in some form.

don't know much about enneagram but this is an interesting look at their personalities!

What Enneagram types are the main cast? I've been thinking about this for some time and here's my two cents. If anyone has ideas/corrections about any mistypes I'd love to hear them. This is mostly coming at it from the 'core fear' aspect rather than outward displays of personality, but I think it could inform potential character arcs.

*Jesse: 2, Helper. Fears being unwanted/unworthy of love. 2 empathetic, self-sacrificing type fits the optimistic protagonist role Jesse plays, and the fears can really be pushed in dire situations where her friends end up throwing in the towel and leaving. Potential backstories for this root fear include (as one anon mentioned a while ago) being an unmoored orphan.

Olivia: 5, Investigator. The fear of being useless/incapable adds depth to her self-worth issues over not being good enough in her abilities (building competition, redstone, etc.) and can be maximized for profit with Ellegaard's death, whereby Olivia can step into her shoes as a kind of successor.

Axel: 9, Peacemaker. Fears separation and conflict, which manifests as a passivity and resignation of the state of things. Axel is dissatisfied with their—the Treehouse Trio's—situation, but has convinced himself that it's just the way it is. Growth would be following his passion when the opportunity arises (finding Magnus and becoming the King of Boomtown)

Petra: 8, Challenger. Fears being harmed or controlled. This one may be a stretch but the rest of Petra's personality (self-reliance, resisting weakness and the need to stay in control (e.g. her conflict with Jesse in S1E7) seems to fit this. Could be explained by a really shitty childhood. Growth is learning to take a back-seat and show vulnerability (which is excellent fodder for a romantic subplot)

Lukas: 6, Loyalist. Fears not having stability. Very loyal and cooperative: Lukas is repeatedly loyal to his friends, shown when he goes back for the Ocelots or even Jesse in S2 if you ended things on bad terms earlier. Growth is abandoning his old post (The Ocelots), finding his own way and taking the risk to join Jesse's gang instead.

Bonus Aiden just for sillies: 3, Achiever. Shares a similar basic fear of worthlessness with Jesse, but manifests it outwardly with ladder-climbing and hunger for fame instead. Hangs around the negative levels of Type 3, with growth being accepting his inherent self-worth and actually doing some good instead of endlessly chasing Jesse's shadow.

*This is written with F!Jesse in mind, at least. I haven't seen an M!Jesse playthrough so I can't determine whether it's accurate or not.

Apparently MCSM is getting a bit of a resurgence bc people hated the Minecraft Movie trailer so bad. I've been into MCSM for several years and Gravity Falls for about one year, and the Book of Bill coming out made that fandom just explode.

Both my fandoms (well, two of them) are having a resurgence. At the same time.

Happy New Year's everybody!

in 2025 let’s bring back being enthusiastic on ao3. leave a comment on every chapter. leave kudos and, if necessary, leave “double kudos” in the comments. tags and notes on bookmarks. the whole nine yards. let’s show fanfic authors how much we love them.

So I mentioned to my family that I was reading for another fandom and they were wondering which one. I chose not to tell them because I have a fondness for making people guess things instead of outright telling them . . . uh, it might also just be anxiety about words. Anyway, so I gave them a couple clues and they were guessing. And I was pretty sure they'd stumble upon the correct fandom given the clues and what they were guessing, and I knew if I hesitated before answering they'd think it was that one.

So they were guessing, and I was finding all this greatly amusing and going "nope" and then they guessed "Ben 10" and I hesitated, which made them all think I was reading Ben 10 fanfic. This was hilarious to me, because I was actually reading . . .

. . . ha, did you really think I was going to tell you what fandom it was?? Nope lol! Suffer!

Okay, so maybe this story isn't as funny to anyone else as it is to me. But I was having fun. So. Yeah. There's the story.

If I disappear from updating my fics just assume I’ve picked up a new fandom and have been reading 1 million fics of it. And probably written at least one work anonymously for it. I actually have a story that I personally find hilarious about this new fandom (new for me, it’s like two decades old lol) that I’ll reblog this post with. But not right now because I don’t feel like it.

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

cast iron? yeah thats a pretty common spell to learn
