HELLO, I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU YOUR WRITING IS AMAZING. I LOVED YOUR JAX X READER WHERE READER HAD A BUNCH OF SKETCHES OF HIM. IT WAS SO CUTE, I WAS ALL GIDDY READING IT. THANK YOU FOR FEEDING MY HYPER-FIXATION FOR THIS CHARACTER. GOD BLESS 🫡 🙏 🗣️ 💀

Ahh! Thank you! And you're welcome!

It still makes me so happy to see so many people still enjoying my writing, it's wild to think it's only been like 3 weeks! 💜

There's a lot more Jax to be written and some longer-ish series so all of the character content!

In my friends group chat we've gotten into a huge debate about whether or not Jesus was a Power Bottom.

I'm of the opinion that he's like 75% the Most Powerful of Power Bottoms and 25% Service Top that gives Mind Shattering Orgasms. Because Judas would absolutely be a toxic bro who was like gay but exclusively topped and said there was no way he'd ever enjoy bottoming and Jesus just went "bet. Challenge accepted." And gave Judas such mind blowing orgasms that he couldn't handle it and betrayed him to Pontius Pilates.

I'd just like to thank you for your service in helping to cause this chaos.

every day I wake up to the consequences of my own actions

OMG i got a better pc recently and i JUST realized i can play vault hunters now!!! :000 any advice for absolute newbies? (kinda scared of it)

YAY! you’ll enjoy it I have trouble playing normal minecraft now that I know there’s a Minecraft I can be playing that has Goals and Objectives and also Storage Systems.

and then yes I absolutely have newbie advice! don’t take any of this as gospel I’m hardly a top player these are just things I find handy:

make sure you’ve allocated at least 8 GB to the game before playing to save yourself some headache. 6 GB can work if you’re pushing it, but not much less.

vault hunters discord can be a useful place to join to find various advice and also things like community documents on everything in the game as you need.

you don’t need better armor than iron; since all vanilla armor was nerfed, diamond armor has the same protective strength as iron armor, just with more durability. save your diamonds for other crafts, like a vault enchanter, a diamond pickaxe, and the altar itself!

you do not need a librarian setup because the vault enchanter exists, but you will need some kind of emerald income. I normally use a classic sticks to fletcher in the early game, but more efficient trading halls aren’t terrible to have (farmers, for example, are also good). you can pick up a villager from the overworld as an item with shift+right click, just don’t do that with a villager that currently has a workstation, because that can cause pretty bad lag!

animal jars and animal pens exist! use them! an animal jar works by shift+right click while holding the jar on adult animals. place a jar with at least two animals into an animal pen to be able to breed them; hit shift to see how many animals is in the pen and the cooldown. you can use a bucket to get eggs from a chicken pen or a turtle pen. you can shear a sheep pen to get all the wool from the sheep, a bee pen to get honeycomb. to kill animals in a pen and get drops from them, just kill them with your sword. later, using some combination of modular routers and bee pens is helpful for automation.

JEI is your friend, but doesn’t show you a few vault hunters recipes (namely, any tool station or vault forge recipes). you can view those recipes in their respective workbench. however, JEI does have lists of what loot is found in each vault chest. that’s handy for pouch filtering!

a pouch with a pickup upgrade is your friend; multiple pouches is even more your friend. the sooner you can graduate to using a magnet to pick up items into pouches without using your shulker boxes, the faster you’ll get at running vaults, I promise! so as expensive as pouches seem early on, it’s really, really worth it to start using them. the filter is also handy to prevent picking up junk items.

similarly, breaking chests with vault tools will seem slow to you at first; it’s not it’s faster than manually grabbing the items from chests. you will get a quest about making vault tools, and a chest breaker should be one of your first tools when you do!

anything you find inside a chest in the vault you should keep; any vanilla items you find you should keep. however, any modded item that isn’t inside a chest in the vault can’t be an altar item, so if you’re short on storage space, you can throw those out.

early skill points should include at least one in heal and at least one in vein miner. strength is very good early game, especially all the way up to strength four. speed is really good but expensive so save getting speed until you’re ready. you only need two levels in un-specialized stonefall to negate fall damage altogether when you use the skill, which, if you’re like me and can’t mlg, is a lifesaver. I also recommend early points in dash and javelin. don’t be precious with skill points, though, they’re easy to change later! also unless you take the intelligence talent, early game you’ll NORMALLY have better strength than you do ability power for the skills that require AP. however, you can re-spec this easily later.

expertises, however, CANNOT easily be reset—you’ll get a free neuralyzer (check spelling haha) at level 50, but beyond that you need an omega pog, which is… expensive to say the least. so you SHOULD maybe be precious with these! experienced is the only one I’d say is definitively BAD. personally I recommend maxing out fortune and bounty hunter with your first 25 levels, but not everyone likes having the double bounties so that’s a “I prefer it” thing. late game, infuser and mystic are really good, but early game you won’t use those. angel is SUPER FUN and always really convenient to have but angel blocks aren’t cheap, so I never unlock it until I actually have the materials to make an angel block. jeweler is definitely actually good but I kind of hate perfecting jewels so I don’t take it, but most people who like maxing out tools do want that one.

I had a whole post about knowledge unlocks but basically, do the ones you want most as you need them, but drawers, the vault compass, double pouches, or stack upgrades are normally my first choices.

level matters more for gear than rarity, especially early game when you level through new tiers of gear quickly. if you get new gear with better implicit stats in a new, higher-level tier, replace your old gear, even if your new gear is common and your old gear was omega. later game is when having higher rarity gear will actually start to matter.

unless you’re very good at the game don’t try to be iskall, use a chestplate, not an elytra, in the vault. so you know, you don’t die.

keep up with the quest book! it’s handy like that! you can go back and read old quests too!

don’t be afraid to change your difficulty settings to whatever you have the most fun with—I basically always play in vaultMode casual and I like it that way!

watching other vault hunters like the hermits can help a lot!

and most of all: HAVE FUN!!!

I love Judas x Jesus but I think more people need to talk about Jesus and John the Beloved 💔

I mean look at them 💕

"The one whom Jesus loved" 😭

What's your AU's canon explanation for someone having the Judas' tongue trinket 🥴

idk

Gonna cheat a little bit here and reference multiple songs but… these lines from Jesus Christ Superstar have been on my mind for a good while:

“If you strip away the myth from the man” “I remember when this whole thing began/no talk of god then we called you a man” “You sad pathetic man” “He’s a man/he’s just a man/he is not a king/he’s just the same as anyone I know/he scares me so”

I am sooooooo normal about the way Judas loves Jesus. Most other characters revere, deify Jesus, but Judas doesn’t do that. He loves not Jesus the Messiah, but Jesus the man. There’s something so tragic about the supposed traitor being the only one who truly understands Jesus’ struggles regarding his divine destiny (as showcased in Gethsemane). How do you love someone when your love is infinitesimal in the grand scheme of things, when the one you love is half god, half sacrificial lamb? When you’re not sure he’s even human? His accusations in The Last Supper is equal parts “you’re getting out of control” and “why must you sacrifice yourself this way when you’re just a man, why make your flesh and blood bread and wine?”. In my opinion, when it comes down to it, the logic behind Judas’ whole “your followers are getting out of control, I have no choice but to turn you in” thing is anger towards Jesus for becoming an idol and driving his followers into a religious craze, when he could’ve done his activism as a human. When you interpret it this way, Judas’ repeating “Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, who are you? What have you sacrificed?” becomes so much more than bitter mockery; he’s demanding the one he loved to answer the question that tormented him all along.

What would you think if the writers pulled a fast one and had Judas not immediately die from the hanging? Instead, he was taken down and rejoices when he hears rumors of Jesus resurrection before soon dying of his neck injury.

Hi anon! And thank you for this ask!

As to this one, considering that Judas’ betrayal of Jesus and his fate is a well known part of the Gospels, I don’t see the show runners changing it from what’s in the Bible.

Would it be interesting to see? Yes. Would it make an interesting fic? Yes. But do I personally see it happening? No. And I feel like showing something like this would get a mixed bag of reactions. Some would like it and some wouldn’t. And I just can’t see Dallas and the crew doing something like this in my opinion given that they try to stick to what’s written in the Bible as much as possible.

Again, thank you for asking, and may God bless you today and always ❤️

What about “Chrollo Dickens”? According to thesaurus.plus

Dickens and lucifer are semantically related. You can use "Dickens" instead a noun "Lucifer".

Seems like the most subtle one amidst all the synonym. 🤔

And yes, your post got me so curious, I immediately had to google it. haha

THIS COULD WORK...... it'd just sound so funny though....... he might avoid the wrath of his darling's parents, but then he has to deal with his darling making jokes at his expense. it's a risky tradeoff. the third time he hears something like "i wasn't a fan of great expectations ngl" he's gonna feel kinda gloomy about the entire thing. this went far differently in his head. sigh.

saw your fill about jax and the reader having a litter together and i feel like giving birth in the circus opens up such an interesting question of like. do they actually exist? theres no human equivalent to any of them in the 'real world' and although the reader went through the process of carrying and giving birth to them if they should somehow miraculously be able to return to reality one day their kids just wouldnt exist at all

I actually had a chat with someone about this and that any pregnancy in the circus (at least in my opinion) would result in an AI baby. Because I have another request from someone on AO3 mentioning pregnancy as "messing with data". I definitely don't think it could happen (getting pregnant that is) in the circus but it's a fun little twist with the idea of Caine or whoever "messing" with the data or whatever.

God, can you imagine the angst? Having a digital baby and getting so attached just for you to leave the circus and just, not have your baby anymore? Oh, the sweet sweet angst...

But honestly, my brain doesn't always see a request and think it takes place in the digital world. Some of my writings don't take place in the digital world so much as just having everyone not look human and just take place in the real world. Basically just scrapping the digital aspect and it's just a freaky weird world where weird shit happens. (Which is why in that writing the surroundings are vague on if it's the circus or the "real" world.)

But yeah, I feel like any sort of magical data hocus pocus of pregnancy would result in an AI baby because there is no human equivalent in the system. Kinda feels like build-a-bear but for babies... build-a-baby... Or the sims... but build-a-baby sounds funnier.

So... Judas betrayed Jesus, right? He brought the Pharisees (?) to Jesus' location and facilitated his arrest and execution. This we all know, right?

...but we also know that Jesus would *know* about this happening. He knew that Judas was going to betray him and he did nothing about it.

...but ALSO we know Jesus told Judas 'It would have been better had you never been born' so it's pretty safe to assume Judas went to hell (or wherever they go when they do something Very Bad). And I suppose the crucifixion *would* have happened either way, but that gets me thinking. If this was planned by both God and Jesus even before he was born to Mary, and Judas was always meant to play a role in it, *why* did Jesus despise him? *Why* did Judas very likely go to Hell if it was all part of God's plan?

I suppose Judas was doomed by the narrative.

But... that also makes me think about how this can be applied to today. Life in general.

According to Christians, are we ALL doomed by the narrative?

Thoughts one conjures up while trying to AP Yoru ni Kakeru on prosekai.

mfw i wanna brag abt having awesome pointless pseudonyms but its not good opsec to tell people what your pseudonyms are

[theminecraftbee]

i can't reblog that hypno fic bc it made me feel Physically Ill to read but just wanted 2 say excellent job writing gruesome horror 👍 you are very good at it

THAT’S FAIR. even on the scale of “deliberately brutal” that I write, that was definitely all the way on the consequentialism end, haha. I tried to warn VERY HARD for it as a result but the mood whiplash from what I did for the first two definitely exists and that kind of writing isn’t for everyone! I am glad you think I did a good job at least, I am having fun taking this week to stretch my “man would that be fucked up or what” muscles, but also, as a warning to anyone reading my hermit horror ficlets, I am taking this week to stretch my “man would that be fucked up or what” muscles, which means sometimes they’re going to probably be Very Deliberately Uncomfortable. if you need to block them, go for it!
