Aka the frankenstein's monster au no one asked for

[starcrossedandstupid]

Went to the vid of scars stream and just skipped till I saw etho, since obviously he’s great plus it means background for the host boys stuff I know is coming. What I did NOT expect from this is for there to be a small amount of silence and for scar to say “yeah I know you love Joel, it’s okay etho ya know, to talk about him,” COMPLETELY UNPROMPTED WHAT

I’m dying what is happening

Scar is joining Gem as a boat boys shipper I guess

Perhaps a Fae Etho for swap game :3

I had such a delightful time with this one, thanks so much for requesting! Bonus Bdubs to go with him :D

[ethoslove]

secret life etho is so crazy bc like. you have allies. you surround yourself with people who are on your side who you want to protect and it doesn't even matter. you still die alone

Doc has been known to go on long tangents about Etho. He does this frequently, and they are very long, often mostly praising Etho. He just… does this. A lot. Tubbo started freaking out when he got even near Etho’s afk body in MCC. He seemed to be in the verge of some sort of attack at all times because of Mr. Slab’s presence. He cried.

He's doing the card game !!

Somebody has got to draw Etho's washing machine as an actual washing machine that's just painted like a magma and Grian is just dragging it around. 😂

Doodle requests, thank you for sending them in!!

What does redstone poisoning do?

WARNING for body horror elements. The worst of it is below the cut.

The poisoning takes shape differently for everyone. It slowly replaces you, taking over your body till you are a part of the machine. Before redstone was known to be a toxin, it was used in all sorts of household items. Fortunately, it's not toxic if you don't come in direct contact with the dust. Which is only fortunate for those who don't...

There are preventative measures that can be taken. Avoiding contact with the dust directly by making sure skin is covered by gloves. Goggles can prevent any getting into the eyes, and a mask prevents it from invading the respiratory system. As well as drinking more water and washing yourself off after contact. There's been PSAs over the dangers over time, but they came too late for those who discovered those dangers to begin with.

The first symptoms are often small. Blood that seems brighter than usual, or maybe glitters. Joints that feel stiff, or skin that's hard when pressed down on. Players often suffer nausea or headaches as their body attempts to fight off the poison. At this stage, it can be treated. Many of the hermits, in fact, helped pioneer these treatments. But their experience came at a cost.

Doc: when he received his cybernetics he had to go through a whole process of Redstone safety when it can access your bloodstream. Thankfully, due to the fact he's a creeper and needs very different minerals than human players, he can get away with more Redstone in his system than anyone else. It's a necessary evil, so he'll pretend those wires don't seem to be a tiny bit longer than when they were first installed...

Mumbo: Having come in contact with redstone at such a young age, Mumbo became an example of the dangers. His veins pulse red and glow an ambient light. His eyes reflect light in the dark as if he were something entirely inhuman. His skin crumbles like dust, leaving behind scrapes which glitter with the dust. He's found himself reacting to sculk sensors, and severely affected by lag, sometimes causing his movements to rubber band or repeat.

Tango: He was one of the first players to work with redstone, making watches and clocks. Similar to Mumbo, he used no protection at all. So the poisoning slowly replaced him, until he was encased in metal. It was too risky to try and remove the poison at the stage, so with Tango's consent, they chose to work with what they had. He's now adapted to work with the redstone, which Tango thinks is pretty cool. He does make sure Zed is always wearing his protection, though.

Etho: Despite Etho's history with redstone, the only thing outwardly changed is his eye. No, Etho's symptoms run deep. They're only revealed when he's injured, and doesn't bleed at all. Instead, looking into the wound will reveal the mangled wires and components, twitching and pulsing. Etho's found his connection with redstone is so strong, now, that he can sense it sometimes beneath the surface.

A poll a day keeps the boredom at bay!

[cerealdog]

The sexiest of them all

Came out of my grave just for this

[starcrossedandstupid]

God I hope Joel is the next hermit to join tumblr after impulse(still can’t wait to find out his user! Hermits have such good taste in art)

He would reblog so much boat boys art I think it would kill us

[phoenixtherobot]

Moth Mumbo or Warden Etho!

How about BOTH Moth Mumbo and warden Etho :D

(psst, I'm still accepting requests based off of this post so feel free send em in!)

[ethogirltournament]

Guys…guys my lack of knowledge on the people here is showing again…like I said this will not be the last time…I had some on Cleo but I really don’t know much about iskall…

[jamsofdeath0]

honestly bdubs and scar vying for Cleo's favoritism is the funniest traffic bit.

[raileurta]

I just had an AMAZING thought!

You know the zombie song? Do an animatic with that song with boogy Etho and human Grian.

Think about it. Etho let Grian go at the near end of the session cause he would "never eat your brain" aka take your life.

I might just have to do this myself, it's such a good idea. 👀✨
