They Are So Dumb - Tumblr Posts
so true this is literally ALL of them
something very compelling about accidental bonding spirk fics.
it's like, oops! i love him so much that i've unintentionally tied our souls permanently together! surely this was caused entirely by my own affection, and he could never feel the same way! <- they're both thinking that, btw. sharing both a head and a brain cell and still never getting a clue.
Regarding the new expiramental update:
I think it definitely a step. Though maybe a bit rough. The idea is good. My main issue is that it doesnt really fix anything? Trading in Minecraft isn't fun its tedious. And making it slightly more tedious doesn't help the issue. The other thing is that people like the hermits aren't the norm. Most players don't have hours to make huge farms so they can fly for 10000s of blocks to find a persific biome. Not to mention the challenges if you dont even have an elytra. But even if non of that matters the villagers will still end up in trading hall at the end of the day. It'll just take a little longer. And thats not fun.
The more I think about it the more I think villagers ai should just get an overhaul. Where we stand right now villagers serve as much purpose as a cow. And we treat them as such. As cruel as it is. One of the main reasons for why they are put in two by one wholes is because they die so easily. The amount of times I have come across a village and half of the population are just stuck in a whole, or in the well or on top of a hill.
All this to say, I am glad that mojang are at least thinking about villagers because they deserve better.
Prompt 41
A mage (yes I know I love making mage villains of the week, but if they didn't want me to make them all the time, they shouldn't be so fun and full of opportunities) puts a spell on Geralt while he's on a hunt. He can only speak lies / the complete opposite of what he feels or means to say, and the only way to break the spell is to reveal his darkest secret. This is all well and good and easily fixable, presumably. The best part is Jaskier has caught on near immediately to what the curse is, and is able to translate all of Geralt's lies and antonyms. "I don't need more supplies for potions." "We'll go looking for a greenhouse or whatever you need, then." "I hate this song." "Why thank you, Geralt! How lovely to know that opinion is a lie!" "Can I braid your hair again?" "Never." "Perfect!~" Except for the times he pretends to forget the curse's existence. "Feed Roach all the apples you want." "Oh, I shall! Thank you for the permission!" He did not give permission. Geralt just deals with the curse for a month or two, before being fed up and deciding to just trust the mage's so-called cure for the curse, and says his darkest secret. That he's in love with Jaskier. However, he's neglected to find a way to explain the cure to Jaskier, and now Jaskier just assumes he's heard another lie / complete opposite. Jaskier is heartbroken, assuming Geralt must dislike him at the least, and hate him at the worst, and suddenly all those teasing comments over the years are seen in a new worrying light. I mean, Geralt, cursed to say the exact opposite of what he means telling Jaskier that he loves him? Jaskier races away from their shared room and gets absolutely wasted in a tavern all the way across town. Geralt paces and panics alone in their shared room for a few hours before going and returning his bard back home. He now has to spend the entire night internally-writing and rehearsing his big explanation speech and apologize to his bard for the miscommunication.
Prompt 46
In a modern world, Jaskier and Geralt are unlikely best friends. Have been for years. An odd new part of the routine however is Jaskier's sudden insistence on watching horror movies nearly every night he and Geralt hang out. It's the last thing they do every time, late at night, sat on the couch together, and it's what they do before Geralt leaves back to his place. They sit by each other on the couch, of course, they're fine with being near each other. They've been best friends for years. But Jaskier's fear of actually paying attention to what's on the screen usually ends up with them cuddling, as Jaskier hides from the movie by shoving his face into Geralt. But Jaskier just keeps asking for the horror movies, so he must like the movies, despite them scaring him. He was always a bit weird. Geralt supposes it's not too odd for his friend. That's why Geralt is incredibly surprised when he gets a call at 3 am from Jaskier's room mate, yelling at him to stop forcing Jaskier to watch movies he's afraid of, because they don't want to deal with Jaskier waking up from nightmares any more. Jaskier meanwhile thinks that the night terrors are TOTALLY worth getting an excuse to cuddle Geralt nearly every night. It's been so many years of being deeply in love with his best friend, and he's like a starving man being fed crumbs. He's just glad Geralt hasn't seemed to catch on yet!
