Not Wanting To Be Outdone By The Benders In The Gang, Sokka Invents The Flamethrower, The Supersoaker,

Ford, to the most anxious 12 year old in Gravity Falls and perhaps the entire planet: You simply have to not feel any fear

I've had an Infinity Train story in my head for at least a year now. It's a post-canon story following Lake but there's also an "OC on the Train" second plot and the two plots intersect later. It'll be a series. I told myself that I should finish the whole first story before posting it, but when have I ever done that? Then I told myself to do it in chunks of 10 chapters (there will be roughly 40 total). Now I'm like, "Why not just do it in chunks of five?"

The first few chapters I wrote about a year ago, but I got stuck and then I was writing Mindscaperers and now I'm writing like 5 billion different stories. But I still think that this one is almost ready to be sent out into the world. (This is because I've almost finished the first five chapters. Yes, it took me over a year to get this far, but only because I was working on other stuff, which yes, I will still be doing, but I love this story and want to share it soon.)

Other Infinity Train characters will show up throughout the series (Hazel, Tulip, Grace, One-One and Samantha will both have minor but important roles in at least the first book, heck, I even have plans for Ryan and Min-Gi!) but Lake and Kaya (the OC) will probably be the main characters for the majority of it.

I have no idea what the rating is going to be, so I'll probably leave it at "not rated" for now. Reason being the story is going to deal pretty heavily with stuff like self-harm and anxiety. I'm not sure if it warrants an M rating, so for now . . . NR.

But there will be fluff! It is very much a Fluff and Angst, Angst with a Happy ending sort of thing!

I'm pretty excited for Lake's part of the story, because there really aren't a ton of stories about her like . . . trying to integrate into society as a literal metal person. How do you even do that?

Series name is A Place To Call Home, first book is called We Only Broke The Train A Little Bit (More Than You). It's gonna be fun! And angsty. And fun! And hurt-y. And fluff! And also some dark parts. But fluff!

I'm really excited about this.

#mcsm#mcsm confessions#minecraft story mode#mcsm petra#mod note: where does she use the word moratorium?

In the very first episode, if you lose the building competition and then say “Losing is the worst” or something to that effect, Petra says, “Enough! I’m calling a moratorium on moping!”

I believe “moratorium” means to end something.

I like petra's random use of big words like WTF is a moratorium??

Why did I set the poll for three days . . . I didn't expect this many votes and am dying of curiosity

I have too many projects.

No one voted so I'm going to take that as a yes. One day I may or may not get around to actually making said incorrect quotes blog, but not right now.

I just want y’all to know that one time during lockdown I played a lot of Minecraft because I had nothing better to do and then later I was going to go into my room after a shower so I could go back to being a hermit but it was dark so I just thought “oop, can’t go in there, there’ll be skeletons spawning there and they’ll shoot at me”

And for LIKE FIVE WHOLE SECONDS I didn’t question it and I just turned on the lights and walked out into the living room to wait it out, just thankful I had my pajamas on already so I didn’t have to fight off the shooty skeletons in my dark closet where there might be some creepers too

And then all of a sudden I was like “Wait what the frig skeletons aren’t real” and then just went back into my room

And I think about that a lot. So if ANY OF YOU dare to think that I have any more than three and a half braincells on a really good day, just please remember this and know that you are sorely mistaken

I decided to try writing horror.

I am having Regrets.

(I’m not going to stop though)

I’VE ALMOST PASSED 200,000 WORDS ON AO3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (It’s 197,000 right now)

sorry just had to scream into the void for a minute there 😅

“We need to apologize to mcsm” Minecraft storymode was never bad to begin with

yes some of the dialogue was awkward and there was a few plot holes but it was still GOOD, it had a unique animation style that stuck to the source material the story actually felt like it would fit in Minecraft!!!!
