Pig Jousting

[placeblocks]

Did you guys watch Guude's latest Mindcrack? It's so fantastic. Guude gets in a call with Pause and Beef about halfway through and as you can imagine it's full of shippiness and funny.

They discuss masturbating into socks, as well as butt plugs, for instance.

Beef and Guude are bickery-shippy, and Pause tries to mediate, and also gets a bunch of orange wool to win Millbee back from MC, apparently. (Beef and Guude also discuss how he feels about it.)

Beef has an amazing line somewhere in it (I can't find it, but I'll link a timestamp if I do), where he says to Guude basically, "Come and get it" or something, but it's really sexy, okay. (EDIT: Here it is, om nom nom nom.)

Also, Beef keeps calling Guude "Guy" and it's like a weirdly cute nickname. That is all. (Except not because there are so many great lines/moments.)

Oh good. I was just (very slowly) trying to write my own version of this post.

For some reason I really love the way Beef said, "Give me materials, I will help you finish this thing, Mr. Busy Guy With The Family." This must be those things called feels I hear so much about.

And oh gosh, the whole exchange with Pause about Millbee.

Guude: Generik's on his knees in front of Millbee. How's that make you feel, Pause?
Pause: *silence*
Guude: Oh now I know why you wanted all my orange wool, Pause. You're gonna try to get in good with your old guy.

And then that way Pause said, "I'm not gonna let anyone steal him from me." D'awww. <3

Speaking of Millbee, there's some odd things going on in the chat. I'm very interested to know what's going to happen with the whole situation with Millbee and the B Team, and I can't help but wonder if relevant things were happening.

Pause is definitely the best when it comes to "playing along" with the whole gay/boyfriends thing. Guude and Beef do when the fancy strikes them, but they seem just as often to not. Pause is always "in character" though when it comes to his boyfriends, which is pretty hilariously awesome. Guude teases in an almost mocking way, and Pause takes it totally seriously, "Not gonna let anyone steal him from me." Awwww, so cute.

Beef helping Guude out is just adorable, and his restrained politeness with regards to how bad the whole jousting arena/flag/pens/etc. I just love that Beef comes over and starts building for Guude without asking or anything. Beef is definitely the creative/artistic one of the three. It's a bit sad, because Guude clearly WANTS to be, he just tends to lack an eye for "beauty" within Minecraft builds.

Edit to add, I do like some of Guude's builds, like his water tower, etc. So he's not entirely without beauty, but it doesn't come as naturally to him as it does to Beef, I think.

Yeah, Guude's tower builds are super cool, but he does struggle with the building aspect of the game a lot

Millbee was streaming the construction of a giant sheep while this was happening, and Genny stole his water bucket that he used for transportation up and down the thing. Genny also left him some baked potatoes. It was really weird.

Oh man, I love having people around to fill in the gaps for me like this.

Though the WEIRDEST chat was Anders going on in his misspelled glory, and Baj taking up the cause and dropping into Welsh or something. What a trip all of that was!

[isi]

I know, I was just thinking this is what I get for not paying attention to livestreams.

Baj talking gibberish was so funny. Or was it Welsh? I wouldn't know.

[placeblocks]

Same thing, isn't it? ;)

[isi]

In that case, I still want to know what's going on with Millbee and the B Team.

Did the stream also cover the part Beef referenced when he said MC killed Millbee? I wonder what that was about. Or did that happen accidentally during an episode of Orange Wool and I just didn't remember?

[crystalllized]

It may have, but I signed off pretty early. The stream was going for ages! It might have happened before or after I was there. Hopefully we see a video, or one of them mentions it. I haven't watched today's Orange Wool yet, either,

[isi]

If it was during the stream, it had to be before, since it didn't appear in the chat and Beef mentioned it a while before the discussion with Generik in front of Millbee.

I have watched today's Orange Wool (it's awesome, as usual), and I'm pretty sure no killing happened.

[guiltyshirts]

Aww these guys! XD Guude's reaction to getting exp from breeding was priceless.

Guude and Beef were definitely bickery-shippy - I wonder why Beef suddenly dislikes Guude's leather armour? It was only a few eps ago they dressed up for each other in it. :/

Is Pause trying to win Millbee back from the B-Team, or from MC? Hmm.

[crystalllized]

Millbee's such a slut :P

They're perfect for each other, Flirty Pause and Slutty Sheep.

[guiltyshirts]

Stupid Sexy Sheep. ;)

I think Millbee needs that on a t-shirt. V-neck, of course.

[placeblocks]

Upvote for you!

[isi]

Not sure what to make of the leather armor thing. I guess everyone's just really critical of Guude's clothing choices this episode, see also: the bickering over his cape.

Pause would be winning him back from Generik, the way I understood it. It doesn't make sense for him to use orange wool to win Millbee back from the Orange Wool duo. Though I wonder how he feels about MC with the "Orange Guys" thing.

[guiltyshirts]

Yeah, also Orange Wool have great chemistry but I don't get much of a shippy-vibe from them.

Can I just say, Millbee/Bdubs is UNF.

I've noticed that sometimes Beef acts different when he's in different group settings. That is, he acts one way when it's just Pause and Beef, he acts slightly different when it's Guude and Beef, and slightly different when it's Guude/Pause/Beef(/Baj). It can be subtle, but I think it stands out. When Beef's just alone with Guude, they tend to be a lot more playful/friendly with wittier banter. When he's with Guude and Pause (and Baj), he tends to be a lot more caustic and "mean." They just rip on each other more and mock and tease.

I think it's a kind of machoism. I've experienced similar sorts of hierarchy in the behaviors of myself and my own friends before. Backin high school, I had one friend I was really nice to in private, but was always belittling in public. I didn't even realize I was doing it until the friend called me on it and made me realize. So, if I had to guess, that's what I'd say was going on here. Beef and Pause together operate a bit to "pick on" Guude (especially given that he called them over for their opinions/"help", so they're already in the "lording it over you mentality"). They probably do it entirely subconsciously.

It also makes for better video in both instances, I think. (i.e. getting along in duos, having some conflict in trios+)

[isi]

That's an interesting deconstruction, and it actually makes a lot of sense, looking at it in terms of who else you're with. My brain decided to also go on a tangent and make the connection that of course you wouldn't want to look too flirty with someone when others are around, lest they catch on and tease you for it.

[placeblocks]

Yeah, that's definitely possible too. Especially when that person is your boyfriend.... lol. And it could go back to the whole thing I went on about the other day. (And also the whole "pulling the pigtails of the girl you like" except, you know... in this instance it's killing her with your blue Smurf penis instead....)

[isi]

Oh, and Pause's new video has some footage that Guude cut of them briefly messing around in the lava arena, if that's of interest to anyone.
