Endersent and such things. Boy why you so forehead

[pixzyn]

Alright guys discussion time.

Which Archie do you think is better written?

The Archie from the game or the Archie from Rotai?

And why?

[olivyh]

Ttvillain!mc tracked ace and deuce down, and participated in the unbirthday party(and also possibly helped with"gathering information" from students with cater)

They delivered the documents to Leona(and might've eaten ruggie)

They ate some "salmon" at octavinelle

Played some "games" at scarabia

Delivered some more documents to pomefiore, and watched epel turn to stone

Murdered Crowley and met with the main staff, and was possibly enrolled as a student as a reward

Met Ortho and went into ighnihyde, met idia and let him explain some of his bots(also might've murdered or snatched a few bots for some less than sane experiments)

Followed lilia into diasomnia, and I have no idea what follows

Point is, they got out of diasomnia all safe and sound(?), and lived happily(?) As a student of nrc

.

.

.

And that was my rendition of what the first encounters were like with ttvillain!mc:D

Yep!!!! All of them sound like encounters that would give them an “out” with the rest of the staff-

also the ruggie thing makes me sad 😭😭 hes one of my fav charas and, even though i torture him in my fics, it still makes me feel bad

But!! It would make sense that ttv! yuu would eat him if they were working alongside leona!

[michaels-two-dads]

I would like you to know that you have single handedly tempted me into watching mc:d again

HA. I am so sorry anon good luck out there

[minecraft]

Do y’all think that the reason Hytale and Minecraft: Dungeons are taking so long to release might have to do with both of their development teams being covertly sabotaged by agents from the each others’ sides? The tension between the two is unreal in any case.

Vexes: A Guide (updated 10/30/22)

Vexes tend to be a more forgotten mob, tucked away in corners of the game and tied to a rare enemy...but they’re my favorite and I think they’re beyond fascinating. Here’s all the information out there from official publications and the game itself related to a weirdly complicated mob that often goes unnoticed.

(Some bullet points will mention potential headcanons, but the majority of this post pulls from the actual games, official wikis, and some things which are interestingly parallel)

This post is about the vex and its variant, not the allay. After playing MC:D for over a year it’s safe to say I’m confident enough in what I know and have seen to talk about it now lol

BASICS

So there you have it, everyone - Bravery is useless and the Vex is the worst thing to happen to the sky since someone invented seagulls. Enjoy!

The verb vex, of course, means “to frustrate, annoy, worry, or cause distress to someone.” Even down to the name, vexes are supposed to be a problem.

Vexes never appear in game on their own: they must be summoned by an evoker’s spell. The “call” for the vex spell is an eerie horn noise (not the same as a raid horn) and smoke cloud. Three are summoned at a time.

Evokers only spawn naturally in woodland mansions or in the final stages of an illager raid, so these are the only places to encounter vexes. Vexes are not considered illagers.

Evokers can summon vexes multiple times in combat, but they start decaying and will die 30-119 seconds after being summoned.

Nametagging a vex doesn’t do anything actually! They’ll still die.

Vexes are less than a block tall. Their size is comparable to a bee.

Vexes can pass through ANY block, including bedrock, and are unaffected by lava. The only block they cannot pass through is a boat, which they get stuck in.

The sword doesn’t drop when they die.

Vexes cannot be put on a lead. I tried.

APPEARANCE

They’re a dark blue-gray with a white mouth, wings, and eyes. Their hands are also white.

Vexes spawn with small iron swords, but CAN be spawned weaponless with console cheats. They still attack and have a different animation for unarmed combat.

Vexes aren’t affected by lighting very much if at all. They glow in the dark, but don’t emit light.

Their ‘legs’ are actually a single block that waves when they fly, akin to a ghostly tail.

When a vex is “seeking,” it appears blue-gray and wanders around aimlessly. When a vex is actively hostile, the dark cracks in its body and face turn red, it lifts its sword, and charges straight for its target.

In Minecraft Dungeons, vexes have a different appearance! Their standard form is slightly different and when hostile the cracks in their body (face included) seem to show orange flames. (side note: the “seeking flame” ancient vex boss is fire powered, humongous, and keeps with the fire theme)

NOISES

General Vex noises are subtitled as “vex vexes.” When a vex attacks, it shrieks. Most of the time they just giggle evilly. The mobestiary refers to these as “breathy, low screams.”

A vex’s “voice” is actually more than one at once, usually a hiss, a giggle, or shriek overlapping each other. (I personally think a few of their voice clips sound like they’re trying to say words, such as screeching “NO!” when they’re killed, but I’ll leave that up to your ears)

HOSTILITY AND AGGRESSION

Vexes are one of the hardest-hitting mobs in the game, and their tendency to swarm means they’re tough to fight.

Vexes attack at the command of an evoker. Their hostility is the same as an evoker’s hostility because they must be ordered to attack. EVOKER-SUMMONED vexes attack players, villagers, and iron golems on sight. If another mob (like a skeleton) hits an evoker, the vexes will be ordered to attack that mob as well. They wander in the area around the evoker looking for things to attack until they decay and die.

If the evoker is killed, the vexes are no longer commanded to attack villagers, golems, and mobs the evoker didn’t like, so will leave them alone. They still hate player characters though!

If a vex was spawned in by a spawn egg or spawner, it is NOT immediately aggressive to villagers or iron golems. HOWEVER, it will relentlessly pursue player characters because it doesn’t need to be commanded to kill them, it just wants to naturally. Vexes spawned this way are free-roaming and do not decay with time. If a mob hits them, they will retaliate, but are otherwise content to wander around.

Vexes can’t see through blocks, so the best way to break their aggression is getting out of their line of sight. They can still pass through walls, though, meaning they can sneak up on you and stab you from behind.

Vexes can be spawned without a sword with commands. They attack with both hands outstretched (see above)

MINECRAFT MOBESTIARY (10/10/2017) 

“This flying imp delights in causing ill toward explorers and villagers. Its name is appropriate: it is one of the most vexatious mobs one can encounter, and causes much mischief. Several vex  are conjured at once by evokers in woodland mansions. How much control evokers have over their vex is a point of much debate, but it is clear that they are an evil pairing indeed” (78).

This book confirms that the dark marks on a vex are cracks in its skin.

It suggests that vexes are not made of “flesh as we know it” and that their bodies may be made of flames (but it’s just a guess).

Though the book refers to vexes as “flying imps” and “flying devils” it states that it’s unknown if they’re actually demonic and there’s no evidence of vexes in the nether (Note: this was published BEFORE the nether update, and this also implies that the Nether is demonic or has demons. Fun!)

SIDE NOTE: Vex noises can actually be heard in the Soul Sand Valley ambience even if they do not spawn there. 

When vexes die they disappear in “a cloud of noisome fumes” (Which might be a reference to the brimstone scent of hell (sulfur), but that’s just a guess. Either way, when they die, it stinks. That’s what "noisome” means.)

A vex’s presence in a room is referred to as “a haunting.” This is the same as a group of endermen and I don’t know why. Vexes are more literal though since they’re ghosts/supernatural.

The book suggests that vexes are undead, but the game does not consider them to be! 

MINECRAFT DUNGEONS/GUARDIAN VEX (added 10/30/22)

Souls are actually used and visible in this game normally. They are constantly illuminated but do not glow, similar to how vexes are lit.

Minecraft Dungeons’ wiki classifies vexes as ghost mobs along with phantoms, ghasts, and the wisp that became the inspiration for the allay.

MANY soul-powered weapons in the game either make REFERENCE to vexes (Soul Bow: “shimmers with all the beauty and fury of an attacking vex”) or make vex sounds when equipped (Souldancer Robe, which also makes ender sounds when picked up).

The ancient vex is a boss which can be fought during an ancient hunt and is named The Seeking Flame. It’s unique in that it spawns with THREE EVOKERS (typically a miniboss mob) as its minions instead, is massive, and enchanted with fire-related abilities. It is summoned with two “O” runes, which are only found by breaking soul weapons. You fight it in an ancient desert temple as well!

A variant vex is in this game, the guardian vex. It’s pink, looks animalistic, and has a headshape that’s similar to the arch-illager instead of a square. It has four wings and instead of a ghost tail it has separated legs!

The mob is called a seravex in game files which is a potential reference to a seraph, a type of angel known for multiple wings.

It’s also classified as an ender mob. The item used to summon the guardian vexes in groups of three is called the Vexing Chant, or Lost Evocation in game files. It can only be obtained from the game’s true final boss, the Heart of Ender, in the Echoing Void DLC fought in the End. Their noises are more distorted in an ender-like way too. I won’t speculate on that too much, there’s not a lot of information outside of that right now!

Seravex have different hurt noises than vexes entirely which have ender distortion. This is in contrast to the normal vex which has a hurt noise similar to another mob instead....

WILD UPDATE (ADDED 10/30/22)

Vexes aren’t updated here specifically but there are a few things to keep in mind:

Skulk shriekers make noises vaguely similar to vexes and literally show souls as a part of the block.

Illager exploration is hinted at in the ancient city where soul magic most certainly was utilized/studied.

Allays are named opposite of vexes (Vex = worry and Allay = relieve) and seem like a more “alive” or at the very least STABLE counterpart. I haven’t had time to research their deeper connections so I’ll leave that to you. Their noises are very similar in a lot of ways and they have like appearances.

IN CONCLUSION

Minecraft is a sandbox that’s made for creativity and headcanon. The cool thing about vexes is that, like other favorite mobs, they’re up to a lot of interpretation and guessing. Vexes can kind of be whatever you want, even if they’re universally difficult and irritating violent little bastards. As for Hex, I love seeing interpretations of what other people think about the mob and even though I have my own plans and interpretations, I love seeing other ideas. Sure, the Mobestiary says creepers are walking TNT constructs, but do they have to all be like that?? Same for vexes. Are they ghosts? Demons? Murder-fairies? Do they actually exist on their own somewhere? Up to how you see your world!

Y’all keep finding this post so I hope that if you get a chance to look at it after updating that it helps introduce you to the whole mob. Some of my observations have been withheld intentionally just because I’m using them as a plot point for my own character story on this blog and haven’t seen much/any discussion about them at all....but the more I’ve revealed in story, the more I’ve added to this post.

Mr. Love MC’s Choice: Gavin

We fellow producers all have our favorite LI in the game for whom we save our gems and dates, replay their chapters over and over again, sucking our bank accounts dry during the process. And that’s what makes this game so fun! However in my opinion MC’s personal choice is Gavin. I will try to explain it as thoroughly as possible in this post. Obviously they are only my personal opinions at the end of the day so please don’t freak out if you beg to differ ^_^

There are spoilers ahead and this post is a long one, you were warned!

A big, warm hug and grandious thanks to @smallersocksx​ for proof reading so fast and sharing her ideas! <3  </p>

Up until now, I’ve always analyzed ships in subtopics, so this time won’t be any different so I will just dive right into it:

Body Language

The law of attraction between two people in a romantic way has some thumb rules, one of them is that when you like someone then you try to touch them at every opportunity. From all of our LI’s Gavin is by far the one with the most body contact to the MC (The main story only atm, I will come to his dates in a minute ;)). I think the anime speaks for itself, in every single Gavin episode and some of other LI’s episodes (ahem…ep 10 but also ep 11…ahem) Gavin and MC are always in an embrace or a meaningful “hands-on” moment…In the game MC and Gavin are quite often touchy with each other, MC seems to not holding her hands back every time she feels like Gavin’s hurt and reflexively touches him, she is also highly concerned about his hair since every time his hair get messed up by the wind, rain or hormones (swh ;)), MC doesn’t waste any second before correcting his hair. Every reunion they have results in MC reaching out her hands towards Gavin and surprisingly never other way around. Even in a perillious moment in chapter 22 when Gavin goes completely wild and unleashes his “beast-self” the first thing MC wants to do is embrace him. In chapter 24, at the very end among all routes, MC only tells Gavin that she’s missed him and hugs him. Chapter 27...again MC wants to check Gavins body for injuries and tends to them the second they are alone in a closed room. They both yearn for each other’s touch all the way, no matter in which narrative.

If I were to start counting Gavin’s touchy touchy moments on the other hand, then we have to prepare a 4 volumes encyclopedia because that male individual is all about touching MC. Another hint for their closeness is that MC makes notes on Gavin’s scent quite often, mostly related to his jacket or his embrace and while doing it, she always uses adjectives like “clean”, “distinct” or “unique”. Again in ch. 15 she knows its Gavin standing behind her even without looking, because she senses his scent: “A scent that I’d recognize anywhere”. Surely there are many scenes, where MC holds hands with another LI or makes a remark of their scent, but they are not at the intensity or frequency level that of Gavin’s.

       2. The Setting

All four LI’s are representing a certain archetypes women are usually attracted to:

Kiro is a pop idol (target audience 13-15)

Victor is the young successful businessman with a high dominant demeanour and Mr. Grey-ish attitude (target audience 25 upwards or any 50 shades of Grey reader)

Lucien is a young attractive professor with a mysterious and enigmatic vibe (target audience 20-24)

Gavin is the misunderstood bad boy (high school) and later a righteous police officer (16-19 for the bad boy Gavin and 20 upwards for the righteous police officer, special agent, military commander... a pilot?! anything including a uniform fetish)

So, in the game, Elex could take any of these paths and develop it in a way that the chosen path becomes a true love story. I gotta admit, Victor’s story comes at times very close to being one. However, his never-ending bickering and belittling in his 90% of the time cold demeanour just make him lose major points. Plus, MC mostly goes along with Victor’s tone, even though she is a kind and friendly person, she bickers with Victor not because that’s her personality but because that’s the way she can cope with him. If only he were a little bit less domineering.. Which is why I never feel like MC and Victor would belong together irl. 

Seemingly Elex and Mappa take Gavin’s way imo. Because… 

In the main story MC loves all of the LIs in a different way and also has romantic feelings to each one of them to a certain degree, but when we look at it closely and read in between the lines of MC’s thoughts Gavin is a little bit more romantically portrayed than the other guys. 

           a) First of all Gavin had a crush on MC during high school cannonically: Even though Gavin only says that it was a farewell letter, MC says once that she wishes that she could’ve read that “love letter”.  I will stop here with Gavin’s feelings because this post focuses on MC. 

           b) MC, too, was kinda into Gavin during high school because in Episode 18, when she goes to Loveland Hugh during her farewell tour before going with her ultimate sacrifice , she remembers Gavin in intimate things like “watching his athletic body” or “wearing men’s clothes-meaning his-”. Additionally she remembers taking note of his face shining in the sun in the very back of the line during her recital. Even before it all she was specifically interested in him. Her memories with the other LI s are comprised of rather friendly moments like flying kites together but when it comes to Gavin she once again thinks about more intimate elements. Not to mention that the game gives MC a farewell with Gavin. In her final moments she only thinks that for Gavin her grievance would be the hardest. In the End of the Abyss era (ch. 15-18) MC meets all of the LIs after their changes again and reacts to all of them with joy…surely, but only when she sees Gavin hovering above her in the helicopter it is again…drum roll…drama: “The next second I saw a pair of amber eyes…shining like brilliant skies” this girl is always romanticizing Gavin.

“-Can you hear me?

-Can you see me?

-See my heart pounding again at the sight of you?” (so are you saying that your heart wasn’t pounding before? oh ok ;))

Fast forward to CH34 where MC fights Leto for the final time and remembers our guys and again, while she remembers other LIs for their sacrifices and their protection of her, she remembers Gavin's warm arms...

           c)The game takes his time and turns the half of a whole chapter into a date in chapter15 Ep 1-9. There is no other chapter in the game where MC spends time with any of the other LI’s in which there is only the two of them, whereas nothing relevant to the main story happens and they share solely many sweet, romantic and almost hot (when MC tries to dry Gavin’s face in her flat and realizes that she stands way too close to him, she then prepares herself to say something, but gets interrupted by the alarm) and again, MC is getting close to Gavin, not the other way around like Lucien pushing MC against the blackboard, that little sneaky Lucien (actually I could write a post with a masterlist of Lucien’s advances to MC:D).

           d) MC’s premonitions revolve mostly around Gavin (when they are not about the whole world or the black queen). Her dream about the rooftop rescue, her Room 404 dream, her daydream in the office in 6-13 in which Gavin’s suffering and from which she wakes up crying out his name leading to Willow, Kiki and Anna remark on playfully how unfair it is to dream about Gavin and disregarding the other guys. She also sees his future in episode 15 twice! If I am not mistaken, she only sees Victor’s future once in her dream and a vague vision of him in ch 18 but other than that she has no premonitions about Lucien or Kiro. Besides in the anime MC uses her power unintentionally yet instinctively twice while having Gavin in mind in episodes 5 and 8. The third time, she uses her powers in this way is in episode 11 with Victor but he is not her driving force for this but she is driven by the imminent danger they both are in and she doesn’t particularly think about Victor at this moment. In the game it additionally happens in chapter 22 when Gavin is cornered by the mechanical arms and is in a tight spot, this sight makes MC have a surge of rage and to unleash her powers in a great magnitude. Gavin is Queen’s soft spot i.e. More importantly Gavin is a constant part of MC’s future frame. She has her visions about other LI’s past but when it comes to Gavin it’s only his future. MC doesn’t have visions about Gavin’s past, like, ever. While Kiro, Lucien and Victor are stuck in their pasts with MC, Gavin has made peace with his past, is living in the present and looking forward the future (one of his best qualities imo, not being stuck in the past). Ironically, it’s MC, who’s stuck in the past in Gavin’s case. 

       e) I will intentionally not delve much into S2 stuff, but one thing has to be in this post…We know that in S2 MC goes back in time and relives the last 17 years. During these 17 years she makes sure to spend her high school years close to Gavin. So given the chance to rewrite her past, she would choose to make good for the lost years that she regretted dearly in S1 (she gushes out about her regrets in S2 Late Autumn Date in detail). We are yet to find out more about the nature of their relationship during high school, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a “will they, won’t they” situation. Since the game wouldn’t put any of the guys in an ex-boyfriend role, that would be the most romantic frame possible.

        3.  How other people see Gavin x MC

f) In CH 36, the one before CH 37, where every LI gets the same intimate moment with MC, only Lucien and Gavin are getting close to kissing her to which MC doesn't show any rejection towards... She is the one accidentally kissing Gavin btw and this is the only time before CH37 that MC either accidentally or willingly kiss any LI on his face or near his lips.

g) In S1, MC only posts two pics with the boys in her moments. One of them is a selfie with Lucien and the second one is with Gavin, hugged from behind. No other LIs ever have a moment with MC. Neither on their accounts, nor on MCs.

It is always a good indicator to look at how other characters perceive a particular ship. For Gavin and MC, it is almost obvious that once they are standing side by side, others see them instantly as a couple. Sure, at the orphanage some children ask Lucien if MC is his girlfriend or that one actress threatens MC to stay away from Victor because he’s hers (btw what happened to her?) With Gavin however, it’s practically a running joke. 

As mentioned above, her once daydream in the office with Gavin shoutout in CH 6-13 drew the attention of her co-workers, leading them to mock her for thinking about him too much even though her dream was rather a nightmare. Besides, Gavin is the one showing up the most in MC’s office and he also lift her up to his shoulders once in the Visiting Hours date and Homer took a pic of that hilarious moment. 

Every time MC is at STF HQ, respectively, Gavin’s co-workers or subordinates too take note of her presence and in chapter 12 they are even caught red-handed by one of the agents as MC is busy “correcting” Gavin’s hair (because see point 1). Eli seems to be aware of the intimacy between the two and even probably assumes that they’ve done the deed, because in ch 12 he is surprised to hear that MC hasn’t seen Gavin’s wound yet. He presumes that she already saw him naked…oh Eli! Season 2 has even more eminent scenes, we just have to wait and see.

In chapter 15 when they deliver Perry to the hospital, they are mistaken to be his parents by the hospital personnel not once but twice! Needless to say, they don’t find it necessary to correct the misunderstanding. I mean Perry is, what, 6…MC 22, Gavin 24 but they automatically think that they must be the parents?! Sure thats common sense- wink wink nudge nudge ¬‿¬ -

In chapter 22 Shaw makes a comment on MC willing to go to where Gavin is  with a “Really, all you do is following him, isn’t it?”. He uses MC to trigger Gavin in Airport date as well.

And of course, there is Minor…The ultimate number one wingman and the most original Gavin-stan! Minor uses everything in his power to bring them together both in the main story and in dates. He even calls her Sis-in-Law in public in CH 35 which MC doesn't reject. This doesn’t even need explanation.

Last but not least:

Their couple chemistry went viral lol.

Visually speaking, when they stand side by side, for me Gavin and MC look the most like a couple (Kiro is too childish and fashion icony compared to MC and Victor is too mature and business attire-ish making him look like her uncle rather than boyfriend, Lucien is the only one besides Gavin who actually suits MC visually). I am not saying that looks are the main indicator btw so don’t lynch me please ^_^

Come to think about it, MCs life is intertwined with that of Gavin's the most. Considering how she knows his father, brother and colleagues and spends so much time in "his world" whether it's at STF or NW. In the main story MC and Gavin have their favorite restaurants (ehm it's never souvenir due to obvious reasons 😉), share the same passion for music, have many common memories from high school and most importantly their world views are very similar. Both are prioritizing others safety over themselves and are compassionate for anyone who is in need. They are both ambitious and hardworking but not to the point of being power driven. Both are humble and finding hapinness in the smallest things. Maybe that's why they say the same things simultaneously or say the things the other would say simultaneously. MC and Gavin are highly compatible and have a harmonious, healthy relationship despite the conspiracy around them.

     4. Anime

Okay okay, listen…Yes, the anime wasn’t the best adaptation and many of us were disappointed by the ending (including me), still, the anime makes a part of canon MLQC universe and no Gavin-stan should complain about the anime because the anime put canonically Gavin on a pedestal. In a total of 12 episodes, all guys had 2 episodes each BUT Gavin was actually blessed with 3 episodes and so many romantic moments to count…let’s count them anyways :)

Mappa introduces all guys in episode 1 so MC encounters them all in the first 25 minutes but she first meets Gavin in episode 2 and the two spend almost the entire time of the episode together, not to mention the extremely romantic first-fly scene in the sunset. As I mentioned in point 1, MC and Gavin are always in physical contact in any given episode. Anime made sure to portray every single interaction they have romantically.

They even went so far to mix Gavin scenes in other guys episodes (he offers her a ride to work in ep 3, she has an emotional moment with him after the first shooting misunderstanding while Lucien is standing right next to her in ep 4, Gavin is the one to catch MC mid-air in ep 10, this episode ends with them in their life and death embrace falling down in dawn… and then he falls on her in ep 11).

When it’s a Gavin episode MC has no romantic scenes with any of the other guys, let alone having any scenes at all. Its only about Gavin in Gavin episodes. Also, the storyline is edited in a way that between MC and Gavin a romantic story develops. Their meet cute conspiracy, their misunderstanding with Lucien, followed by the “drop the senpai” offer and finally that 5 seconds long gaze deeply in the eyes in ep 8 while holding hands.

It is really sad that the anime ruined this development in the final episode but taking into consideration that there might be a second season, they probably chose to make the change in Gavin’s character after the NW project remarkable.

Another point in the anime is  that they kinda exaggerate Gavin’s Evol a little bit. During his stand-off with Lucien Gavin’s bullet cuts through Lucien’s shield and all in ep 8,11 and 12 there is a significant emphasis on the intensity and destructive power of Gavin’s Evol. I mean, whose Evol is the most upfront one in episode 12? We see Lucien using his Evol only twice, both very briefly, Kiro/Helios/Key and Victor even have to use guns to protect themselves and/or MC. Gavin’s shown using a pistole once at the beginning, after that it’s all turbines and tornadoes and just Gavin unleashed. 

I think it’s an exaggeration because in my personal opinion, Lucien is actually the one with the strongest Evol, followed by Victor and then comes Gavin. Lucien’s ability to copy an Evol is simply the strongest trait one could have, sure it comes with the downside that he then doesn’t have enough time and focus to excel in any of those Evols, Victor can literally create black holes are you kidding me?! But because his Evol has its limits it puts him in the second place. But in the anime, Gavin’s Evol is extremely powerful and destructive and they also created some really cool scenes in which Gavin uses his Evol in various styles (accelerating his bullets speed, dodging a bullet, lifting MC in any and every situation, flying- obviously- and sometimes just overpowered destruction).

But in the anime in comparison, Lucien looks like a copy-cat of Evols and Victor like someone who travels through time to find out nothing can change the course of events (on a side note I will never understand why did Mappa toned down Victor so heartlessly, he is a  powerful character and has countless sweet, emotional moments with MC).

        5. Dates

I left dates to the end because they are highly subjective and don’t belong to the main story. NEVERTHELESS, Gavin’s dates include here and there some hints which may indicate that MC tends to like Gavin maybe just a little bit more. I will just add it as bullet points here since I’m pretty sure that the list will be enriched over time.

Slightly drunken date: Shouting out loud in public “Gavin! I’m crazy for you!”

When the Galaxy Falls Date: “...and in that moment, I make an eternal vow in my heart. To give all the blazing love and the most endless warmth to the person in front of me. Standing on my tiptoes, I carry a heart which is filled with courage to move forward, receiving Gavin.”

2 become 1 date “No matter whether the wedding is real or fake I only want to be your bride.”  Here comes the Groom event where MC had a prob wedding with each and every LI but she actually only wanted to be Gavin’s bride (obviously Gavin’s heard her loud and clear since he’s bought a gem/ring right after) and that gem is brought up in…

The Returning from Afar Date - Thank you for silently watching over my mood. Thank you for always returning to my side no matter where you go. The white muslin drifts to and fro. My heart stirs, and I gently touch the muslin in front of me. Sunlight streams in. My fingertips brush the soft white muslin, tracing the word “Gavin” on it. I turn my head to the side, blinking at Gavin a little playfully. “This word - apart from it being your name, it also has another meaning. It’s “courage”. MC getting poetic, but who wouldn’t in that date (thank you @smallersocksx for reminding me and without @cheri-translates we poor Eng-server players would be left in the dark so thank you for translating season 2 for us!!!) but than MC verbally and literally makes her feelings clear in…

Late autumn date (2nd season translation by @cheri-translates) “I close my eyes, holding onto his solid arms. I lift my head to welcome his lips, savouring his unique breath. The person in front of me has shed off the roughness of youth, leaving behind only the purity of youth. He often makes me forget that he once used to be unrestrained like the wind. He has a body that is stronger than everyone else’s, a tough soul, a will that is as firm as steel, and a heart full of tenderness – it is soft beyond compare. 

I cling to his waist tightly using my calves, wanting to brand every part of him into my heart. 

“I want to bear his everything.” 

Gavin: “Do you like it?”

“I like it…I like it very much…I like it so much that I don’t know how to prove how much I like it” “The rest of my life is yours, The years that we’ve missed out on are also yours” (whatever I have, I will give it to you. I will give everything to you, leaving nothing behind)

I rest my case

Do you think minecraft can get any more medieval? Btw I hope the next thing after the updates announced at minecon we see is cave updates cuz they shown interesting looks for cave in MCdungeons. (Maybe not enough to be a theory.)

I have pretty strong feelings about Minecraft: Dungeons.There are a lot of unique blocks and textures shown in the Minecraft: Dungeons trailer which I wish were a part of vanilla Minecraft already but now that they’re part of MC:D it seems like they have more reason to deny adding anything unique from it to the main game in an effort to kinda drive more sales? Like I actually really hate that to be honest because IMO they could’ve probably have made MC:D, or something VERY close to it in regular (although modded slighty...) Minecraft but they purposely chose not to because MONEYYY babey. So this title being out soon sort of “competes with” or “overturns”  minecraft in terms of medieval aesthetic territory as well as improving combat mechanics in regular minecraft.I lowkey hope they add some of the unique things shown from the dungeons trailer to the main game such as craftable iron braziers, the blue mana and red vitality crystal clusters (or at least just different crystals based on biome) and also the new darker stone bricks... are they perhaps... basalt stone bricks?Also I kinda would like it if andesite, diorite, and granite had brick versions and not just the polished stuff. idk how the crafting would work but it should be a thing imo. Maybe pillars too. Speaking of, it’d be nice if those stone types were biome-specific and that you could make anything requiring stone out of them in crafting recipes... Also I’m not sure but it looks like... sand being smoothly piled up like snow is a thing from that screenshot but that would be an awesome thing to have too. Like sandstorms that make it “rain” sand in deserts.Also shown in MC:D is a gravely-dirt kinda block and new “cavern dirt” texture. I actually really like the style of them. Also there’s a chain link block shown which I think would be a pretty good addition to regular minecraft. Y’know, to swing on and build contraptions with? but yeah now MC:D is a thing it really seems like they’re never going to get “too wild” with what they add to minecraft after the village and pillage update. It really does seem like “minecraft 2″ in a sense even though (and actually, moreso because..) they’re trying to dispel that notion. Regular Minecraft is probably going to see sparser and less exciting updates (like wow have you seen the current update schedule? they’re planning to finish the biome update.......”early” next year... like jeez...) while they make a boatload of cash on selling cosmetics and EXP and DMG boosting potions via microtransactions with MC:D while adding a new boss raid to it every week or so.

Maybe I’m just being pessimistic but like, yeah, dealing with a massive company… Microsoft here.. so I’m expecting the worst for mc out of mc:d being a thing now.
