Wow. Talk about attention to detail.

The different answers to one single question.

Might be a weird compliment but I think part of why Cleo and Scott are such an effective team in the life series is because they're both really really good at bluffing.

Cleo is very outright with the fact that she doesn't consider herself very strong at pvp, even compared to other members of the server. But people are still very consistently scared of them. Why? Well, I think a lot of it is that Cleo acts like someone who is really good at pvp. They're often very threatening, very overtly aggressive, as a preventative measure, just to make sure they're never seen as an easy target. Cleo tells everyone that she can and will ruin them at the first slight against her, and frankly, people aren't interested in testing that. Even if Cleo doesn't actually consider themself to be the strongest fighter, it matters more how they're perceived by other people. Fire- which Cleo is very famous for using as an easy punishment for any wrongdoing against her- is also a very good threat display. Usually minecraft fire is, honestly, not that hard to deal with, and the damage is usually superficial (unless you're joel and just kinda stand in the fire until you die), but the thing about fire is that it's big and dramatic. Surround yourself in flames twice your size and make sure you don't flinch when they point their weapons at you and people will be scared of you without you having to fight, because you look like more effort than you're worth.

Scott isn't overtly threatening in the same way most of the time, but he achieves a very similar effect with his ability to keep consistently calm and collected. I've watched multiple scenes where people come to kill Scott just to literally panic and backtrack as soon as he acknowledges with calm amusement or irritation instead of seeming threatened (i also think this is how mumbo got him in wild life- scott is literally so used to startling people with a mostly calm acknowledgment of their murder attempts that he genuinely didn't expect mumbo to actually still activate his trap, even when scott was standing on it). I've watched multiple scenes where Scott is objectively outmatched or even outnumbered in a fight just for the others involved to falter or outright retreat because Scott wasn't acting like someone in any danger, because even if he's on four hunger and one heart, he often still talks like he isn't scared. If you he just smile or roll your eyes and don't flinch back from them, people will eventually get really confused, wary, or tired, and will, again, decide you are more effort than you're worth.

It's honestly a testament to their intelligence, social and situational awareness, and emotional control, that both Cleo and Scott are so good at bluffing (albeit with slightly different forms of it). I don't know how to wrap up this post, they're just really good at this competition, thanks for coming to my ted talk.

i am once again showing you my designs for these guys

bring back tumblr ask culture let me. bother you with questions and statements

My art for my Project Lumen UI designer application! Featuring:

-A bunch of buttons (Grian would be so proud); a specialized button for each of the Winners to access Reputation across the server (no clue if a feature like that is possible or planned but thought it would be fun :D); dialogue boxes for being on Green, Yellow, and Red life; the Main Menu button; and Inventory button.

-Loading screen animations! The ones here are for Third Life and Last Life.

@project-lumen I present humbly (plz don't Martyn me)

Y'all, I need help...

I need tips for writing Joel? Cause I've got a Chapter 2 lined up from Joel's perspective where he's coming back on the ship, but I don't know how to write it

If it helps, here's what I've got:

"The ship was in full disarray. The crew rushed back and forth, heaving lines and tightening the sails, throwing the sandbags overboard. Everyone was ecstatic to be returning home after three years at sea, "

Yes that's all that's in the chapter right now and yes I stopped in the middle of a sentence

PLEASE HELP I'M GOING CRAZY BUT I NEED TO FINISH THIS PART AND ESTABLISH THE JOELOTTIAN TRIO BEFORE I CAN GET BACK TO LIZZIE AND HER SHENANIGANS

Secret hack: Imagine the songs as a different fandom singing them instead. Works for me and I listen guilt-free every day :D

10 minutes into Descendants and the worst part is I would like the music if wasn't this

I've got my Life Series playlist on in the background and I'm building it up again. Feelings are doing their feeling thing but I'm getting it back up. I usually do write it somewhere else, this is a one-time exception, but I'm definitely copying down anything I wrote to Libre once I stop for any reason now. I've got my list of things to hit. I'm gonna do this!

Screenshot of what I have as a little preview/self esteem booster :3

@baosci @whiver-wyverncat

I've got some bad news...

My computer had to reload all my Chrome tabs and apparently I hadn't saved my second chapter of Drowning via preview yet? And like an idiot I hadn't copied it into Libre Office.

So I just lost the entirety of my almost finished second chapter.

I genuinely don't know if my motivation can recover from this, cause I definitely can't remember everything I wrote, and I don't want it to be any different. I feel awful and I'm so sorry. Maybe it's not my place to be, Baosci you are amazing and I can't wait to see where the canon of this goes, but I don't know what to do now. I love y'all. Maybe I'll figure out a different way to write it.

That's all. Just wanted to let you know.

i know there’s more than this out there but it really is incredible that people will look at a fictional character someone else wrote and collectively say “I will write you a hundred happy endings.”
