Why are Jimmy and Tango the most duo ever?

Like. I wouldn't have expected them. But it makes so much sense.

They're loud, they're brash (in a positive sense), they have big reactions. They both can't build (though looking at Jimmy's After Life Series and Tango's recent Hermitcraft video, that is clearly a fucking lie-). They both stumble and fall through Minecraft and die in the silliest ways. They both ran around like headless chickens when they respawned and wasted several seconds where they could've looked for their dropped stuff. They hype each other up, in a way; one's excitement and loudness feeds the other's excitement and loudness.

Plus, they were, like, really sweet with each other?? Jimmy telling Tango that it's okay when Tango apologized for getting them killed, Jimmy trying to reassure him by telling him 'hey, I'm probably going to get us killed as well', to which Tango immediately responds with a little laughter and 'that's fine', Tango going to help Jimmy when he saw Jimmy getting the 'Not today, thank you' advancement, Jimmy hyping the house Tango built, Jimmy showing off what he gathered each time when he went out, Tango worrying for Jimmy when he was cornered by Etho and Joel on the bridge... hello??? I'm here for this friendship!

In case you can't tell, I'm really looking forward to more shenanigans of this duo lmao

#double life smp #dlsmp #jimmy solidarity #solidaritygaming #tangotek #tango #traffic smp #I still need to check out Joel and Etho's perspective but I'm also intrigued by their dynamic #haven't really watched Etho yet but Joel's brand of unhingedness is very fun #so we'll see how that goes #(Also about them being sweet: I was writing a really mushy romance scene before double life dropped #and now all my brain can conjure up is some really mushy romance stuff between Jimmy and Tango. Which...#I might actually need to write. Like. The brainrot is real.#There's a lot of pining on my brain right now and I might make that everyone's problem.#The writing I did was for a different thing lmao but works just fine.#Anyways. That's why all of that stuck out to me. Might write it. Might not. You'll see.)#((I doubt anyone would be interested...?))#Lac's own posts

3. taxi

oh man, this one FOUGHT me y'all. so much cutting and pasting. I am not even kidding when I say that everything that happens in this chapter was supposed to be part of the last one, and I gave up and cut that one off early because I was sick of trying to finish this part. and now this is my longest chapter yet. you know, out of all three of them. at 1.3k. lol. I am not, how do you say, fast. but I was hoping I'd be able to get a chapter written over christmas, and I'm really proud of myself for finishing it!

Content warnings for this chapter: box boy universe, pet whump, dehumanization, cage mention, rampant classism. As always, please tell me if there's anything else I need to tag.

[masterlist] [chapter two] [chapter four]

“Okay I know they’re supposed to be expensive but what can you possibly be charging this much money for.”

“Adoption fees are to offset the cost of room, board and medical care while at the facility,” the employee parrots, without so much as the decency to look ashamed.

“He does not look like he has had literally any of those things while he’s been here. Or possibly in his entire life.”

“Ma’am, if you cannot afford the adoption fee, then you cannot adopt a Pet.”

“Oh, I can afford it,” Vanessa growls, handing over a very shiny credit card before her mouth can get her in enough trouble to stop the employee from taking it. She bites her lip until she tastes copper to keep from saying, I’d just rather put it towards something that isn’t blatantly and obviously going right back into Worldwide Rehabilitative Un-fucking-limited’s pockets despite the fact that this is supposed to be a goddamn government facility.

Harm reduction, she reminds herself. Paying extortionate fees to kill shelters is still harm reduction. It’s the unsavory truth, but it doesn’t make the blood in her mouth taste any sweeter.

“Sign here,” the woman says, handing her credit card back along with a digital pad and stylus, and Vanessa cracks her wrist before she takes them. It’s sore and snapping like a glowstick from the mountain of paperwork she’s already been made to sign since the employee unceremoniously hauled the man on the floor behind her down from his double-high-stacked wire crate. She can’t decide whether to consider it an obscenely large amount, or an obscenely little one for all that it represents.

She can’t think about it too hard. Can’t draw too much of her own attention to the fact that she’s really doing this, or she might just run screaming back out into the grey-tinted autumn afternoon, and then where would this guy be?

She scribbles her name on the touchpad, and just like that… it’s done.

—

“Don’t forget your leash and collar,” the employee reminds her.

“I won’t be using those,” Vanessa says, with all the imperious rich-lady self-assurance she can fake.

“You will if you don’t want to be liable for civil and/or criminal penalties up to and including the permanent forfeiture of your right to Pet ownership,” the woman drones like she’s rattling it off from a handbook, and nobody has the right to own a person but even Vanessa knows better than to argue the system with someone who literally works for it.

She grinds her teeth as she takes the lengths of bulky blue nylon from the woman. She crouches beside the man, who’s bent himself into an odd kneeling fetal position on the cold tile floor. “Sorry,” she whispers as she slides the coarse material around his throat, feeling his pulse beat harsh and rapid underneath. She hopes she’s being quiet enough that the employee won’t hear her talking to him like a person—because he is a person, goddamnit—but she knows better than to trust her own volume. Best if she can get the fuck out of here with him now, before she makes a mistake.

She really doesn’t want to lead this dude crawling down the street like an animal. Doesn’t want to imagine what people will think. But she asks him, “Can you stand?”, and he makes a sound like a choking dog, and so much for both their dignity, she fucking guesses.

“Ugh, fine, whatever, just… come on.”

—

Fuck standing, the guy can barely support himself on all fours. His joints threaten to buckle at every step as Vanessa urges him out onto the chilly sidewalk. Coat of dirt aside, he’s got nothing on him but a pair of boxers as filthy as he is and that godawful blue collar, and when his bare skin meets the frigid pavement his body clenches so hard she can practically hear his teeth slam shut.

She looks at the unwashed man before her, shivering hard enough to rattle his bones in the cold October air. Looks at her thick brown coat. Ugh, she likes this coat, the lining is stitched in in all the right places to keep the texture of the shell from making her want to climb out of her own skin and no amount of dry cleaning in the world is going to convince her to put it on again once it touches… whatever the fuck is all goddamn over this guy. She sighs and shrugs it off.

Fuck fuck fuck it’s cold. She’s shivering herself in just plain blue jeans and her second favorite Cure t-shirt. But a million “if you’re cold, they’re cold!” memes flash through her mind and she grumbles aggrievedly and drapes the wool coat over his massive, gaunt frame. This dude has like a foot on her standing, she remembers when the lapels will barely pull around his shoulders. She’s gonna have to shake Austin down for clothes.

God, it feels beyond fucked up to have a person on a leash, and it doesn’t help that the cheap blue nylon feels plasticky in her hand and she hates the texture. She can’t imagine how much worse it must feel around the throat of the shuddering man before her. She’s taking the damn thing off him as soon as she gets him home, she’ll get him a better one if Roselle can’t find her a loophole and she absolutely fucking has to, but when the fifth or sixth cab passes her by without even slowing down she starts to wonder how the hell she’s going to get him home at all.

—

“You want to go to the corner,” the employee says boredly, not so much as looking up from her newspaper when Vanessa shoulders her way back through the door.

“You what?” Vanessa echoes.

“The corner. Better if you go another block or two, even. Cabs don’t stop in front of the shelter.”

Of course they don’t, Vanessa thinks.

She hipchecks the door back open and returns to the stupid goddamn hitching post they so conveniently provide along the front wall of the shelter, where she’s awkwardly strung up the loop of the stupid blue leash. “Hey, uh, dude? I’m gonna go up the street a bit, okay, I’ll be right back. Don’t go anywhere.”

He barely acknowledges that he’s heard her, curled back up under her coat in that same odd position with his forearms tucked into his chest. “...not that you would,” she adds dubiously, before power-walking away to the next block.

Vanessa hisses through her teeth in the bleak grey air and rubs at her goosebump-riddled arms, but true to the employee’s disaffected word it’s only a matter of minutes this time before a cab driver catches her wave and pulls over. “Thanks,” she says as she tumbles in. “I’m going back to the Heights. Need to pick someone up first, though. Just on the next block.”

The driver looks skeptical, but he rolls down the quiet street all the same—until he clocks the shelter just as Vanessa tells him to stop. “No. Nuh uh. No way. I don’t let Pets in my cab.”

“I’ll double your fare. Up front.”

The driver shakes his head, staring revulsed in the direction of the hitching post. “Not worth all that crud on my seats.” Oh. Great. He’s seen him.

“What if I cover the seats. Newspaper.”

The driver sizes her up with a calculating gaze, one elbow propped on the back of his seat, and somewhere in the middle of wanting to punch him for looking at her she finds herself wishing for once that she’d dressed… richer. Finally, he grouses, “Triple fare. And the meter’s runnin’ while ya cover ‘em.”

“Fine,” Vanessa spits, and sprints out with the door wide open before he has time to change his mind.

She barges into the shelter one last time, hopefully the last fucking time in her life if she has any say in it. Leaning over the counter, with a grin that’s probably a little too smug for her to be proud of, she snatches the newspaper directly out of the apathetic employee’s complicit hands.

hey guys, i just wanted to thank everyone so so so much for all the support i received yesterday. waking up this morning was literally overwhelming with how many kind people chose to help me out and i'm eternally grateful. having two more weeks of security in the place i'm staying is literally. a lifesaver and i can't thank you all enough <3

in some hopefully cool news we are fast approaching 2000 followers! i mentioned it a little in the tags of my last post but i've been making tentative plans for ideas on what to do as a celebration... i Had been thinking about doing a side game and submitting it to the orifice game jam (the theme is. very appropriate for this game after all XD) but apparently game jam entries get uploaded by other people to a kind of database where despite it being an unranked jam everyone is pretty critical with their ratings and that's not really my vibe for a silly side-game that assumes some familiarity with the characters already for a follower celebration i guess.

so i suppose i'll just have to make an orifice-themed side game outside of the jam LMAO 😏

i have a decent idea of what i want to do with it... now that i'm not doing the game jam i might expand it just a Leetol cos i'd like to finally use polls on here and maybe give you guys some things to vote on about it lmfao. but we'll see how it goes! thank you all again <3

#posts from the mortal world #also i have to say the idea of my game. being uploaded to a database without my knowledge/permission is uh. Scary?#please don't database my games sir...#also i'm not entirely sure why the site even accepts submissions that aren't from the owners of the works?? that feels Odd??? but anyway #i don't know exactly how Many orifices will be involved i haven't decided that yet LMAO. but certainly. An Amount...#which is to say i don't know how Raunchy it will be. time concerns and so forth. but we'll see!!#i am trying this optimism thing out to see how it goes

NEXT UP ON WANDOR WEDNESDAY WARS........SOMETHING BRAND NEW!!!

Rather than the traditional single-elimination bracket, this next competition will take on more of a track meet style, meaning fewer rounds of polls but MORE characters moving on each time!

We'll have four (4) preliminary qualifying heats, with the top four vote-getters moving on two (2) semifinal heats, then the top four vote-getters from each of those will meet in one (1) eight-character final.

Get it? Good.

But what's the competition? I'm so glad you asked.

Welcome...to Wandor Winja Warrior.

That's right, this time we are pitting our beloved blorbos (and other motherfuckers) in the beautiful sport of ninja warrior. Unfamiliar with the concept? Check it out (actual run starts at around the 1:30 mark):

youtube

Basically the most intense obstacle course you can imagine, made to test one's agility, strength, and speed in unique ways. Who has what it takes to reach the top of the warped wall in the shortest amount of time? Who falls off the second quadstep and gets disqualified? You tell me.

Here are the randomly selected qualifying heats, set to start tomorrow:

Heat 1 Linus Mosk Luthen Rael Perrin Fertha Corv Cinta Kaz Birnok Syril Karn Karis Nemik

Heat 2 Leida Mothma Kleya Marki Mon Mothma Wilmon Paak Bix Caleen Jezzi Dedra Meero Gorn

Heat 3 Xaul Kino Loy Brasso Saw Gerrera Cassian Andor Ruescott Melshi Vel Sartha Taramyn Barcona

Heat 4 Taga Blevin Timm Karlo Salman Paak Tay Kolma Lonni Jung B2EMO (idk just go with it) Arvel Skeen

Remember, even though you can only vote for ONE person, FOUR of them will advance from each poll. So don't just think about who you think is the fastest out of everyone, consider 2-4 as well and think about voting for one of them instead. One or two votes could make all the difference.

May the best ninja win!

#honestly #we'll see how this goes #it could be a train wreck or it could be a lot of fun #either way it's only three weeks lmao #anyway shoutout kacy #the only justification i have for thinking my fave could do any of this #but even i will probably not vote for vel on this one #andor #wandor wednesday wars
