Jerri: *has trapped MM in a glass box filled with water to test that magic trick*
Master Mentalist: "I should have expected this. Well, this is the end for me."
Master Mentalist: *dramatically acts like he's drowning, despite clearly being fine.*
Jerri: *is done* "MM, can you just die?"
The others: *laughing*
Master Mentalist: "I'm kinda thirsty actually, hold on." *somehow WALKS OUT OF THE GLASS BOX*
Jerri: *stammers in confusion*
...
Jerri: "Have you seen how many hours this man has with magic?!"
Master Mentalist: *comes back with a glass of water, and just walks back into the box of water*
Schmitty: *laughing through tears* "He's got some water!"
Master Mentalist: "I had to take a break from drowning to drink a glass of water."
Jerri: "THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!!!"
Master Mentalist: "Okay, have I drowned yet?"

Jackbox Headcanons!
I felt like sharing some headcanons today. Just a few ideas I have for some of the hosts. I'll label each appropriately.
Master Mentalist:
He's skilled in various forms of magic. Hypnosis is just his favorite/specialty.
Rarely, if ever, raises his voice. He always speaks in a calm tone. Even if he's angry, which is also a rare occurrence, he'll still never raise his voice at someone. If HE'S mad at you, you've REALLY messed up.
Knows hundreds of ways to help people relax/get a good night's sleep. Good teas, soothing music, relaxed muscles, the works. It's easier to hypnotize people when they're relaxed. Helps get them into a trance.
That being said, he's TERRIBLE at going to sleep himself. He has tired eyes for a reason. It's not that he can't go to sleep, he just refuses to sleep at a decent time. The boy will stay up all night if you let him.
He enjoys hypnotizing the other hosts, just to see how they're affected by hypnosis. (With their permission, of course) Some of them are fighters, taking a considerable amount of time. Others soak it up like a sponge, rapidly falling into a trance.
As his (distant) cousin, he knows Schmitty very well. MM has been busy running his show, but they've kept in touch over the years. When Schmitty recommended him to Jackbox, he was on board with the idea.
Speaking of Schmitty, MM ADORES the Quips. They're just too cute! Likewise, the Quips really like him too. (Then again, the Quips like everybody) They really like playing in his magic hat.
He's easily startled by loud noises. It's one of the few times his voice is raised. He'll let out a loud yelp or squeal when he flinches. He no likey.
Jerri Rig
Is very logical in her approach to things. You HAVE to be when dealing with time-travel tech.
Can make all sorts of gadgets and gizmos out of anything. She DID turn a fridge into a time-travel device.
Secretly gets really excited about things. She tries to hide it as if she doesn't care, but you can see it in her smile.
Slightly cybernetic. The big box on her head DOES come off, but she prefers to keep it attached. Patches up a HORRIBLE head injury she suffered a long time ago. Let's just say there's a reason the box only has one eye.
Has a love-hate relationship with Master Mentalist. She often tries to find scientific explanations for his magic and is frustrated when this doesn't work. He finds it amusing. <3
Plays mini golf in her spare time. That's how she got the idea to use LOW scores for Time Jinx.
Acts sassy but actually really cares about people. She knows all the Time Jinx players personally since they're all time travelers.
Likes to listen to music while she works. Usually, remixes and electronic music.
Dictionary Keeper
Half angel, half devil. Mostly takes after her angelic side but can whip out her devilish features if needed.
Lives in a library in the clouds. More specifically, there's an apartment-esque part of the library she lives in. Her area has all the living essentials. A cute kitchen, a cozy bedroom, even the bathroom is pretty.
The ULTIMATE book nerd. She's read SO many books and is always eager to get more for the library.
Super friendly. She'll happily welcome anyone into the library. When she worked on Pack 6, she quickly befriended the other hosts. Even [REDACTED] was no match for her overwhelming sweetness! (They're dating.)
Finds words in the strangest possible places. In her sock drawer, in her hair, on her balcony, anywhere!
She's learning how to play the piano. This is shown in the credits song, which she performs herself.
Uses Dixie as a nickname, as Dictionary Keeper is a bit of a mouthful.

Whatβs better than 1ne Party Pack 10 host? 2wo Party Pack 10 hosts. >:)
Meet Mandy Drake and Jerri Rig! Hosts for FixyText and Time Jinx!
Bonus : The Person behind Jerri? Also Jerri.
Long story short, Jackbox revealed Jerri as an avatar on Twitter and since all the other avatars were playable, a lot of people ended up thinking that the Jerri we had been seeing wasnβt the real Jerri (She was the real Jerri they were just showing off her design). SO, it inspired me to make a little interp for another Jerri who is from a further post-apocalyptic future where Binjpipe took over everything. Itβs a long headcanon, so Iβll stop there.
For Mandy I made her a mandrake person (hehe get it) because I like a few others thought FixyText was just Word Spud 2 at first (which it is definitely not, itβs more if Word Spud and Talking Points had a baby). Sheβs a crazy coo-coo inventor!
