can u recommend some good aus and fics about jordan and marie I'm begging you plsssssss
*gasp* oh my goodness i love this questionnnnn!
okay, i’ll give you my current top five limoreau fics uploaded to ao3, but honestly there’s so many good ones for you to pick from, you really can’t go wrong with anything. also, these aren’t ranked in any particular order just my top five in general!
(warning: a lot of these are smutty bc it’s the most common rating in the marie/jordan tag at the moment, so if smut’s not ur thing, let me know and i can do a top 5 of non-smutty limoreau fics!)
1. you can take my flesh if you want, girl by stormbxrnbitch
rating: E
this author has only two limoreau fics out right now and both are SO GOOD (seriously, i can’t recommend this author enough) but i’m obsessed with this au which is why i put it on the list!
this specific fic is a vampire au in which marie herself is a vampire (a cool take on her canonic bloodbending powers) and jordan’s kinda (super) into it. it’s a three-shot, kinda marie-centric, and just all around super interesting and compelling to read. it’s still a wip and it hasn’t gotten smutty YET, but the author has promised lots of it for the final chapter!
2. Want Want? by Cherrydrama and Levie101
rating: M
i’ve recommended it on here before but seriously, IT’S SO GOOD!
it was written before episode five came out, so it’s a jordan pov, canon divergence fic on what happens after limoreau wakes up in the bed together, and i don’t want to spoil it too much, but i will say one thing: SPARRING/TRAINING AU.
this one isn’t super smutty iirc, it’s rated M, so it’s good if you like spice but not a lot of smut in your fics.
3. The Weight Of You by Georgiathewholedaythrough
rating: M
another canon divergence fic! written before episode five, it’s also a take on what happens after they wake up in bed together, only this time things get…smutty. it’s marie pov, very sweet, very romantic, and funny too.
4. two timing by diaphanouspages
rating: E
this is a slight au (described by the author as “has a weird relationship to the show’s actual canon, but just accept the violent canon divergence and move on”) in which jordan attempts to make marie jealous, which works and then they end up in bed together. starts off angsty and kinda smutty, but also turns sweet towards the end.
also slight praise kink for jordan, so if you’re into that…
5. Reluctant Study Buddies by MercutioTheVelaryon
rating: M
another canon divergence fic taking place after episode 4 ending, but they all go in different directions i swear!
this is a study partners/study buddies au (as stated in the title) in which marie and jordan are assigned to be partners on a project for one of their classes. it gets a bit steamy, but it fades to black so if you aren’t comfortable with explicit smut, this might be for you! also, very funny and the banter between jordan and marie in it is *chef’s kiss*
(also this author has a bunch of other limoreau fics uploaded, which i also really loved, so i recommend you check those out as well!)
THATS IT THATS THE LIST! i genuinely hope it helped even a little bit, and that it gives you the mariejordan fix we’ve all been craving since thursday 😭 also, let me know your thoughts after you’ve read if you want, i’m always down to ramble on about gen v/limoreau nonsense!

| Rivals to Lovers - Clark Kent - Part Four - Jealous Clark |
pairings: Clark Kent x AFABPlusSizedBlackReader x a little bit of some Bruce Wayne
warnings: more rambling, more thirst, a little bit of awkward, sass, attempts at humor, typos, language, morally gray Clark, jealous Clark
If you don't like it, don't read it. But a quick second for those of you that have hung in there with me this far: I appreciate the love and comments. Seriously, I thought this was gonna be a simple and silly thank you fic for @ramp-it-up--dope writer btw, go check her out when you get the time--who answered my asks in perhaps the best way possible, but it's turned into a chaos series of rambling thoughts and awkward thirst and ngl it's really fun writing a problematic Clark with an equally problematic reader.
In short: I don't think I'm much of a writer, and I promise ya'll that's okay, but thank ya'll for reading and liking and reblogging my raggedy nonsense anyway
(Also I don't write nearly enough to tag people or to do a tag list, but I'll do it just this once bc I never got that kinda request before. Here you go, @glitterandgoldfinds 💖)
“I heard you and Y/N are dating?”
Clark smirked, dusting bagel crumbs off his shirt as he finished his breakfast. “Where’d you hear that?”
“I won’t even entertain the question.”
“Right. The award winning Lois Lane always has the story.”
There was a quiet pause on her end. It was a bit hard to discern as he tried to tune out the bustling sounds of the coffeehouse around him. From the sound of it, she was making coffee. He finally picked up on her laughter approaching the phone. “You should do my PR.”
“Busy, unfortunately. Gunning for your job, in fact.”
She laughed again. “I can tell. Anyway, Luke tells me you’re gonna try the cooking class too?”
“Yeah we are,” he said, now picking out an assorted mix of your favorite donuts. He heard a lower tone in the background and a light smack that had her giggling. He rolled his eyes.
“Oooh we? Sounds kinda serious,” she hummed, giving him an invitation to volunteer more information.
“No comment.”
He heard a male’s voice in the background again. Obviously Luke. It was too distorted to understand, but he was certain it was annoying.
“Hmm,” she purred, sounding like she was following up with a small sip, “Maybe I should pump Y/N for the details.”
She wasn’t joking. She was almost as relentless and nosy as you were to get the facts.
You could definitely hold your own, but he just didn’t need the headache.
He paid for the donuts with a light laugh. “We just got started, I wouldn’t call the reverend.”
“No, but it’s kinda a huge scoop. Maybe I should make this the next cover story,” she taunted saucily, making him laugh a little louder.
“Hilarious. You know, jealousy’s not a good look on you, Lo’,” he sassed back, checking the time. She snickered on the other end.
“Not jealous, just surprised. Y/N’s a pretty hard sell. How’d you land her?”
He left and casually held the door for an elderly couple, eyes on your building two stoplights down. “Just. Lucky, I guess.”
Lois hummed in agreement. “You do have a flair for luck that I’ll never understand.”
He laughed, dipping his head modestly and picking out a table to sit at in the outdoor dining area. You probably weren’t awake just yet, as evident by your phone going straight to voicemail, so he decided to give it 30 minutes or so. “I guess it’s a matter of perception.”
“Clark...Mmh…Clark…”
He paused. It was a whisper. Your fevered gasps that pierced his ears through all the clamoring of the waking city. It was a cry for him. Falling from your lips. It switched something on in him.
“Mmh…yes. Please…I deserve it,” you groaned through needy gasps. What the fuck were you doing to yourself that had you sounding like that?
A soft vibration accompanied you and his mind nearly shut off. You were thinking about him...while you were...Fuck.
“So anyway, see you in class?”
He blinked, his thoughts interrupted. Lois continued on the other end, completely oblivious to any of it. Something about Luke’s pictures or some shit. He didn’t really care. Which was truly a first. He took a small breath.
“Yeah. Sorry. Signal broke up,” he lied, trying to gather his thoughts, “Call you back.”
"Everything okay?" she asked, a little concerned at his detached tone.
He snapped out of it, eyes falling to the stoplight that changed to red.
He licked his dry lips. He did need to stop.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm just almost to her place."
"Ooooh, I see. Well don't let me hold you up."
He could've told her "It's not like that, I'm just bringing breakfast"
He could've worked it around to say "Nah, I like the company."
Anything that came out of his lips next would've been another step closer to stealing her away from her mediocre boyfriend
But instead
He exhaled a low, breathy laugh. "Thanks. Later."
He barely registered hanging up. You'd finished quickly, the soft puffs of your breath fading from his senses just as quickly as they came. That was a sucker punch to his health. He wondered if he could wager just a peek. Just one. Through a few thin walls.
He could just imagine you there, muscles still tense, gradually relaxing, honey-soaked thighs sliding down your sheets, your panties ruined--provided you were wearing any. He took a deep breath. Granted you were his girlfriend--fake or no--you were his friend first.
No peeking. Not yet anyway.
Your shower kicked on and he nearly audibly groaned. You were making it really hard to be a gentleman.
Impossible.
He let his morals slip a little as his view of your apartment faded to the interior, eyes curiously peering into your world. He'd never been up there before. Your decorations revealed a bit more to him than he knew. Your awards and achievements were framed above your work area. He’d recognized a good portion of them. From Fresh New Journalist, to Journalist of the year—two years in a row, around which were framed pictures of you with all the members of your team at some point or another.
It made him smile a bit when he saw that you actually saved the picture of the you and him after losing the office paintball game, both of you splattered with yellow. A color you sarcastically quipped complimented his eyes. His chest pounded when he thought about how cute you were, dusting paint out of his hair, standing on your tiptoes. Jokingly reminding him that it was his fault your position was given away because he was so damn tall. It made him laugh. You always made him laugh.
Shit.
Had it always been you?
No, he’d known Lois far longer, and was in love all the way. But somewhere along the line, you’d sneaked in and hit him with your jokes, your wit, your smile… Dammit Y/N.
Almost as if summoned, you emerged from your bathroom, wrapped in a towel and his eyes darkened a bit, sliding along your curves in the terrycloth.
He could feel his face heating up a bit; this was wrong. He knew that. But he was too curious to stop now. A bead of water caught his attention--a stray drop from your soaked curls that framed your pretty face as you rifled through your drawer. it ran down your chest in a jagged pattern before disappearing into the darkness of your cleavage.
This was so wrong.
You looked so content. So...satisfied. He felt his body tense when you loosened your towel, ready to drop it for the cute floral lingerie you'd pulled out. He swallowed heavily, his eyes dropping just as the towel fell from your chest.
He couldn't. You weren't his. Not yet anyway
Call him a bit of a sentimental sap, but he didn't wanna spoil the surprise.
He ran a hand over his face, glancing at his phone, trying to figure out how to proceed.
So eventually
There he was
Like a soothsaying sex goblin, he was standing in front of your building with donuts
You suddenly felt a wave of panic wash over you
Like if "I LOOK A MESS" was a feeling
Which. As far as you knew, it was, but you'd never say something so cliche aloud.
Besides, as far as effortlessly sexy went that morning, you were ahead of the game
Also you were too lazy to change. Clark was unexpectedly intruding into your space. He was just gonna have to deal
If you were petty, you'd admit that it was a great excuse to show him the ass he was missing out on bc the lounge shorts clinging to you right then were practically screaming "Lemme sit on that face for an hour or two"
But you weren't petty
"Oh wow, is this what they call a full service boyfriend?" you joked with a grateful hum, your interest fully directed at the donuts he'd brought.
Unfortunately, you missed the absolute shameless way homeboy took in your scent
Like he was smelling his favorite pastry
He couldn't understand it
He didn't wanna try
All he knew was that a new fixation was forming and unlike Lois, you were already half his
The sweet smell of something cinnamon-y wafted from you. Body wash or lotion or something. His eyes followed you as you strolled into your kitchen, and set the box down. Your hair was still a little damp, pulled back into a curly bun. Cute.
“Something like that. I thought I’d drive you to class to make up for last night."
“Oh yeah,” you remembered with a laugh, “Drunk texts? What were you up to last night?”
“It was a hell of a night, believe me,” he said, making his way to your sofa, seeming to want to leave it at that. As badly as you wanted to pry, you let it go.
“Well anyway, we don’t have class today.”
“Oh. Well what do you wanna do today?”
You gave him a strange look. “What? Offering to hang out with your fake girlfriend for the day? What happened to Take No Prisoners I’ll Take Your Girl Clark Kent?”
“He’s off for the day,” he said, rolling his eyes. He did that a lot with you. You laughed, successfully working his nerves.
“Damn. I was hoping to ask him for some pointers,” you said, sarcastically snapping your fingers. He eyed you as you moved past to clean your mess.
Damn you hit different in pajama shorts.
Focus, Clark. His eyes flickered to the television. Rather to the assorted bouquet on your television stand. It was rather extravagant, the stems and petals covering the edge of the screen obnoxiously. A gold card was in a black holder sticking out from it and he was curious about the sender.
“Pointers about?”
“I have an interview/dinner date with with Bruce Tall-Dark-and-Broody Wayne tonight and truth be known, my man’s kinda hot.”
If you only knew how broody he was, he thought to himself, feeling a familiar bit of nagging jealousy tugging at him. “He send the bouquet?”
“Yeah. Aren’t they gorgeous? Somehow he found out about my favorite flowers. The man’s mafia, I’m certain of it,” you joked, completely missing the pointed stare he was giving your flowers.
What do you know? Suddenly got an opening in my schedule.
How about dinner, 8:00 at La Mercerie?
It paid to have X-ray vision.
In this case, though, it left a bad taste in his mouth. You were going out on a date with Bruce Wayne. What the shit?
“What's the story?” he asked patiently, his eyes plastered on the tv now, not registering a single bit of what was showing onscreen.
“The 30th annual Wayne Concert Commemoration? It’s one of the other stories that I got bumped to cover since you scooped me on the whole Nightwing thing, remember?” you said, feigning a bitter tone that made him smile again.
“All that salt’s gonna raise your blood pressure.”
You looked pleasantly surprised at the clap back, whirling to face him with your hand—and a soapy spatula—on your hips. So fuckin cute. “Okay. Farmboy’s got jokes. I gotchu next time, though. This story’s gonna be great.”
“I dunno. A concert story doesn’t sound too exciting,” he continued, a small smirk twitching at his lips. In truth, his emotions were swirling. If he didn’t joke, he might’ve actually have tried to convince you not to go.
“I’ll think of something. So watch your ass Kent.”
"I will," he resigned with a small smirk.
He’d much rather watch yours, to be honest, admiring the light way it jiggled when you shifted your weight to your other leg, your focus back on the dishes.
Fuckin focus, Clark.
Bruce Wayne was dangerous. In more ways than one. The Dark Knight persona was, of course, but somehow Bruce himself was even more dangerous. Bruce Wayne was a handsome billionaire. A playboy. Plus, for all the good he’d done, he was still a marked man with a hell of a lot of enemies. Enemies that would hurt you to get to him. Even if you were just a fling.
Which you weren’t gonna be. Were you? One of his knuckles popped. How long had his fists been clenched? His mouth went a bit dry again.
“Do you have something to drink?” he asked suddenly and you looked at him blankly. What were you thinking about? He’d obviously snapped you out of some deep thought. You always had that look when someone interrupted your train of thought at work. You were also usually kind of grouchy when that happened, but you just gave him a lopsided smile. Which somehow made it worse. Your good mood was beginning to bug him.
“Oh! Yeah! Sorry. Help yourself,” you said, nodding to the fridge. He tentatively did as he was told, spotting some sodas in the door and deciding to grab one. He needed a drink. Ideally one with a sting stronger than a Dr. pepper, but he’d just have to take the L. It wasn’t like he could get drunk anyway.
“I was just thinking,” you said, drying your hands on your towel.
Oh fuckin finally
He needed wanted to know what was swimming through that devious mind of yours
“We can go wander around the park a bit if you want. It’s right next to the shopping center, so I can pick up a cute outfit while I’m there. You know, multitask.”
“Works for me,” he said, pretending the soda is what gave him such a stale tone.
“Sweet, lemme go get dressed,” you said with a pleasant smile. He couldn’t lie, the sudden image of you slipping out of those clothes did flash across his mind multiple times that morning, and he wanted nothing more than to tell you to forget Wayne and stay in all night with your boyfriend.
Which he wasn’t
Not for real
But he was most certainly on your mind
He knew that much
It wasn't Bruce's name coming from your mouth
Yet...

Jack's Big Rambly Nonsense Theory Post About Episode 3 ✨️
I am a merciful fella so the rambles will be contained under the cut.
hey! what's up? this is the only thing I care about for the time being so I'm gonna ramble about it! I don't know what I'm doing! all of this could be wrong! I'm very excited!
Please feel free to reply/reblog or like.. idk, y'all can tag me if you wanna make a separate post jumping off of, responding to, or completely annihilating (in a friendly way!) any of my theories here.
What The Heck Is Antikythera?
i didnt know what this was and it seemed somewhat important since it's in the title (lol) so I looked it up.
one of the first things I found was the wiki article for the Antikythera mechanism, which is basically a computer/calculator from Ancient Greece that predicted astronomical positions and eclipses. It was found in a Roman shipwreck in the Mediterranean in 1901 and might have been constructed as far back as 205 BC. (it had gears and everything! cool!)
Considering this device is related to astronomy and approximately, oh, ALL of our protagonists are interested in and have connections to astronomy, I don't think that's a coinkydink! additionally, since this is fictional and there are no limits, mayhaps the Antikythera mechanism is a part of the story and it can do (and does do) more than predict celestial events...? 👀
Now, I admit I read about this one interesting thing and kinda just ran with it, but in case there's anything else about this itty bitty little island, I did look into it more. According to the Wikipedia, Antikythera was settled and abandoned several times throughout history. This is also where the wreck with the mechanism was discovered (hence the name), and apparently lots of birds use the island as a pit stop during migration, but that's about it. It's enough for me to laugh shrug and carry on with my mechanism theories, lol.
The Ellen Austin, The Bermuda Triangle, & Maybe A Ghost Ship
Since our beloved quartet is confirmed to be aboard the Ellen Austin and they're en route through the Bermuda Triangle/Sargossa Sea where the Ellen Austin is said to have encountered a ghost ship, I'm gonna continue with my previously-held theory that we're getting a ghost ship encounter! (In one story about the Ellen Austin, they had some of the crew go onto the ghost ship to bring it back to shore with them, and the crew ~mysteriously vanished~ which is... interesting. 👀)
I have a few ideas about what this potential ghost ship might be:
An Ancient Greek vessel straight from Antikythera, with or without a mechanism, but probably with. [squints at map] I mean, the Mediterranean isn't that far from the Sargossa Sea/Bermuda Triangle area. And/or maybe there was some time-and-space nonsense happening that could land it on the other side of the Atlantic. If our quartet could get poofed from a satellite in 1835 back to Earth in 1881(?), then a mysterious ship could plausibly get zapped to another place and/or time. Might be a bit too on the nose but c'mon, the name is in the title, there's gotta be a connection to Antikythera, and who says it can't be this? Could also have ghosts!
A slightly less ancient Roman cargo ship like the (shipwrecked) one that had the Antikythera mechanism. (Please see above for hand-waving about date & location.) Maybe the ship has a mechanism on board, and maybe it's also got ghosts—both of the Ancient Greek variety via the mechanism, and of the slightly less ancient Roman variety via it's their dang boat. Bonus points if the Greek/Antikytheran(?) ghosties were scaring the daylights out of the Romans and are responsible for the ship becoming a (double) ghost ship. Of course this also hinges on how literal the "ghosts" in The Ghosts of Antikythera are, but I'll ramble about that in a little bit.
A much less ancient ship from whatever eras make it more likely to be in the Sargossa Sea, but it has an Antikythera mechanism somehow. This would take out a lot of fuss about how the ship got here or how it could have survived this long without being wrecked or discovered, AND it would bring up new and fun questions such as "why does this random ship have an Ancient Greek mechanism" and I call that a win-win. Could be a classic pirate ship, could be a newer vessel that'd be more familiar to the crew of the Ellen Austin... idk im not a boat guy but I think there's some fun possibilities.
bonus theory: the ghost ship has "witch" in the name or has a name related to witches, or maybe literally just has "wicked" in the name, purely based off this tweet:
thank you @man-down-in-hatchet-town for being my Twitter scout, lmao
Just 'cause, you know... wicked, witches. The waves could be just part of the water theme since (i assume) the episode takes place predominantly at sea, or perhaps the ghost ship is literally carried "this way" by the waves.
Ghosts — Like, Literally? Or Do You Mean Metaphorically?
We already know that Pulp Musicals will be exploring multiple genres—sci-fi, horror, mystery, adventure—so I'm betting episode three will add some horror to the mix, especially after Matt's delightfully ominous words in the trailer:
In this web of mystery, Margaret has begun to unravel her own... but she is not the only one awakening. And soon, our heroes will find that the light of discovery can bring forth shadows darker than anything they could have ever imagined.
...Yeah, sounds like horror and/or ghosts to me! So maybe the ghosts of Antikythera are real actual spooky scary spirits, in which case I am very excited to pull up a chair and listen to Herschel scoff and try to find a rational, scientific explanation for any spooky happenings. (Idk if he believes in ghosts or not, but in this case I hope he doesn't because that will make it much funnier for me. <3 )
On the other hand, "horror" is incredibly vague, so maybe we won't get jump-out-and-say-boo ghosts at all. Maybe the ghosts of Antikythera are more unsettling because they aren't an active, supernatural force wreaking havoc on the open sea—maybe they're just an empty vessel, forgotten memories, and the lingering consequences of the actions taken by people who are long since dead. What's scarier—the dead staying behind to screw with you face to face, or the dead abandoning their troubles & mistakes and leaving clueless strangers to get stuck with the deadly fallout?
Honestly, tho? I'm excited either way, and I'm very curious to see how scary Matt plans to go.
Theories That Don't Have A Ghost Ship, Because You Never Know
I am 100% behind the ghost ship theory, but making theories is fun so why not throw some other ones out there. Full disclosure, I don't think these are that likely, and some are mostly gonna be for laughs.
They find a shipwreck. I'm really only considering this because the Antikythera mechanism was found on a wreck. I don't think the Ellen Austin would stop to investigate a shipwreck if they happened upon one, and I also don't know if they'd even have the equipment to safely or effectively investigate it if they wanted to. Then again, maybe they would stop if they saw the wreck go down, and also who needs to go down in the water if you have a passenger with magic powers? If Margaret could launch the Sagitta, she could probably fish up a wreck easy peasy. Maybe she wouldn't even need the ship to stop, she could just see (or sense?) something in the water and reach out with the Radiance. And if whatever she brought onto the Ellen Austin was haunted, then that could kick off the ghost stuff... huh. I actually kinda like this idea!
Atlantis? I think someone mentioned this in the chat for the trailer's premiere. I'm inclined to say "probably not" though... unless the quartet gets poofed or otherwise summoned closer to Greece. But I think they'll probably be sticking around the Sargossa Sea, since there isn't a lot of time for them to be traveling all around in a ~90 minute episode, and the previous episodes kinda picked a place and stayed there. Doesn't necessarily mean we couldn't get an underwater city (or formerly underwater city), of course. It just probably wouldn't be Atlantis.
...I actually don't have any other ideas right now, lol. I really think it's gonna be a ghost ship. And that the Antikythera mechanism has something to do with it.
Oof okay, for the sake of my eyes and brain, I'm going to stop staring at my phone and thinking for now, lol. I will probably come up with some more thoughts & theories as time goes on, but I think I have used all my batteries for today.
Again, if anybody reads this and wants to contribute or comment, feel free! 💫

The tags about 77-2 impulse definitely Not losing 3lsmp got me thinking about a full blown 77-2 in datd 3lsmp scenario now- like assuming everyone is still equipped with the powers/skills they have, do you have any thoughts on what would happen?
I for one think that Kj would attempt to either Bust Out ala that one red sun crossover fic, snap people out of it, or just cause massive amounts of chaos/start trying to profit from the great amounts of Stuff resulting from it
Though I think also that it kinda depends on if the gang decided to join out of free will initially or if they just got plopped there all of a sudden because could you imagine if you had just A Squad of angry angry people not being pleased about a common enemy? Nice knowing you 3lsmp world o7 (though side note I think Grian would just absolutely lose it someone give this poor man a break) (also side side note Keralis, Bdubs, and the Narrators would also probably do extraordinarily well huh)
man, okay, so. it's really interesting trying to figure out how the 77-2 cast would do in 3lsmp, and tbh it also depends on if we go with the Classic 3lsmp cast or "the entire cast is just 77-2 characters." either way i'm assuming they all want to be here bc if not they Would stage a Grand Escape
sidenote fluffy and i were briefly discussing "what happens if 3lsmp but a kakujo's there" a few nights ago and it turns out the answer is "it all goes down roughly the same as long as nobody cheats too hard. also martyn's voices do Not like kakujo (breakerbreakerbreakerbreaker) and kj eerily doesn't change At All on his red life." i have no idea if we'll ever do anything more with it but martyn totally sees kj do dark magic at some point and is Unsettled
anyway i'm about to start rambling so. readmore. mild 77-2 spoilers and hey if you haven't read 77-2 now's a great time to do so! it's one of our fave aus we've (co)written. so here's the masterpost
right, so, if we just put the classic 3lsmp cast in this situation but give them their corresponding powersets from 77-2, we're going to see. a lot of things change. powers-wise:
impulse is nearly impossible to kill, bc he instinctively ticks back to before he'd receive a fatal blow
bdubs. vines. crastle's a lot more defensible all of a sudden
while grian has branches access, i think as long as nobody gets turbokilled he probably won't use the branches -- he doesn't have that Instinctive Usage drilled into him as hard as impulse does. he's gonna be more of a bastard though
cleo, oh man cleo. cleo can't not use her power, and if anyone does Important Things on the server she'll know. she won't know what they are but she'll Know.
etho and tango are truly just fucking vibing
ren is also just vibing but with a little bit of anxiety from ["PURPLEHEART" FILE MISSING]
scar is [DATA EXPUNGED] and that leads to some interesting consequences
day 1, cleo stops grian from blowing up scar with a creeper, bc the resulting ripple would be so large that she absolutely does not want to know what it'd be like. martyn and ren still hit it off, but with the added wrinkle that ren is a little more initially untrusting of martyn. impulse still agrees to Day One Crew, but in a very serious tone, and also warns Bdubs about phantoms. cleo and bdubs still have some lingering tensions over the 77-2 Incidents. everyone not from hermitcraft has no idea what's going on.
you can see how this would spiral.
---
MEANWHILE, over in the "it's the entire cast of 77-2 in 3rd life" universe, things are on fire! keralis and scar are our Red Desert Duo this time -- they both wanted to be the conman figure and decided to team up. and by "decided" i mean keralis sweet-talked scar into it and scar's a little grumpy but figures it gives him a good shot at winning. grian's still technically in debt to scar, but he's more of an unpaid intern and the chances of him eventually defecting to someone else's side are pretty damn high.
doc and bdubs immediately set up NHO Part 2 and recruit iskall (vive la revolucion) to their side. they try to convince false to join, but she's decided to stick with cleo rather than do shenanigans. the Gals are immediately declared an enemy of the New Hermit Order and cleo is delighted by this.
impulse and kakujo both independently decide they want absolutely nothing to do with this nonsense and leave; impulse runs into ed while doing villager stuff and kakujo runs into joe while trying to build a house in a mountain. they both make secret duo alliances. unbeknownst to ed and joe, impulse and kakujo are a Day One Alliance, a fact which will delight joe and utterly bewilder ed.
i don't know who wins this one. it'd be a sheer disaster though.
