Group Rewatch S1P6: Mashed Potatoes Spellbound Caves Episodes 11&12

[mindcrack_love]

So you know how last time I said Mhykol's "myah" sounds like "meow"? Ever since, I've had this image in my head of Pause petting catboy!Mhykol. Meowkol? ...Make it happen, fanartists. Bonus points for Mhykol's glasses, because nothing gets me more than catboys with glasses.

Episode 11: Pause | Mhykol
Episode 12: Pause | Mhykol

Regarding the many posts vs. few posts question: there will still be a weekly chat post (which I will probably rename "Chit Chat'n with Mindcrack Love" because that amuses me) but you are highly, HIGHLY encouraged to just post your observations and prompts as they come to you. The chat post will stick around just in case, though!

I will try (emphasis: try) to tag posts with everyone who shows up in them - yes, that includes everyone mentioned in the chat posts. If I miss any, let me know!

Regarding Season 2 of Group Rewatch: Here's our shortlist:
* UHC Season 1&2 (Team Nancy Drew attempts to defeat the Ender Dragon with Ultra Hardcore on; Season 1 was only 5 episodes, so with Season 2 it's 19 eps)
* VintagePause Vinyl Fantasy & Lethamyr
* OOGE Spellbound Caves (fun for compare/contrast with Mashed Potatoes on the same map, perhaps? Or are we going to get tired of the vines, the viiiiiiines?)
* OOG Portal 2

Which of these would you like the most? Do you even care? :P We'll probably get through all of them eventually as well as MC/Nebs CobbleHaters Season 2 because I said so. Biased mod is horribly biased.

an OOGE-y prompt of the moment

[mindcrack_love]

I'd really, really like to see a fic in which OOG thinks they're going to corrupt Etho and/or teach him the ways of the world, really try to make him let go of his propriety and privacy and open up to them, both emotionally and physically.

Whether or not it's really just a somewhat tender, somewhat silly first time for their sweet Canadian boy or Etho ends up surprising them with what he really knows? Well, that's up to you.

Pause/Millbee - How we met.

Videos up now. Mining together on the server and telling the story of how they met. <3

really known as: the moderator giggles through Dungeon Survival with YoshiToMario #7

* I hiss when I laugh too :3 I'm sure other people find it creepy but I find it kind of adorable, and it's nice to know I'm not alone :P
* MC's shock when he finds out there's no Mountain Dew in the UK made me giggle like a loon.
* Yoshi always hits MC right in the lapis. No that's not meant to be innuendo. Mostly.
* I agree with Yoshi on 1.3 gravel. It's an unpopular opinion but I care not!
* The perfectly synced "Link just got an item" sound from the two of them oh my heart oh my heart
* MC's accidental 360 no-scope kill is delicious.
* if anyone here has seen Steins;Gate, then you know why I'm laughing when Yoshi says "Dr. Pepper! It's a doctor!" Ahahahahhaa. /kind of obscure anime reference
* ...and derpy Yoshi is derpy. *facepalm*

Ugh I enjoy these two so much and I'm so happy to see MC do co-op ugh feeeeeeeeeeelings.

quick thing on today's MineZ

Guude: "You know what you need?"
Beef: "Fish?"
Guude: "A baby."
Beef: "A baaaayby. You keep saying that like you want to help me create one!"
Guude: "Oh! You know, I'd let you sit on top of me and spin."

WAIT. WHAT.

Well, if we're all suddenly dissatisfied with PauseunBeef, suddenly Guude Beefyfist (lolwut) is an option? And again with this lack of legs thing. How is it that Beef always ends up getting teased so mercilessly? Firstly the falling to his death, then the Endermen, now this. Goodness!

EDIT: The comments started talking about Doc (EDIT EDIT: and Etho!), so I've added more tags. :P

Heights...

[placeblocks]

Okay, here is a weird, sort of stupid one, but I figured I'd ask anyway. How do you guys determine how tall the Mindcrackers are in a story? Do you go based off IRL height (or assumed IRL height), off their Minecraft skin (in which they're all the same height), or whatever suits your fancy? I don't adhere to any sort of sexist yaoi tropes of "taller guy is the top" or whatever bullshit (and actually tend to invert those when possible!), but I do still like to know who is taller if one is, and in a case like Pause/Guude, Alex is WAY taller than Jason. Does that mean Pause is way taller than Guude, too?

Totally a stupid post, but I figure some of you might have head canon you want to share or something... I know my world was a bit rocked when I learned Pause was 6'5" IRL...

(Sorry not sure how to tag this one... Maybe a "discussion" tag?)

Since we brought up that Doc stream in July, have a prompt.

Start listening at minute 20. Doc says he can't prank Etho because he "likes him too much", and that he struggles when he has to go against him in UHC.

OBVIOUSLY, this means UHC fic, basically something like the amazing Gomeric comic "Anyone But Him", but for the Science Bros of Science pair: DocM vs. Etho in UHC, struggling to justify fighting each other, not wanting to hurt each other. Please?
