Nail Painting Quotes/Head-cannons

Where someone poses the question "Would you let me paint your nails?" I did these based off vibes and some came out as head-cannons more than actual quotes.

The Morphing Mystery (Part 1)

*Season 10 Hermitcraft*

“Ohh, that was some night.” Mumbo says sitting up in his mothball. His head was pounding, as if his heart and brain had magically swapped places.

He rubs his eyes and stretches, before reaching up to combed his ears back.

. . . . Ears?

Mumbo felt the sides of his head, however, was only met with the shaved part of his hairline.

“Oh dear.” He says, grabbing at the two furry things and pulling them to his eyeline.

Yep. Those are ears alright.

“Oh deary deary me." He quickly shuffles through his chests, "Oh. . . dear.” He finds a bucket of water, and seeing his reflection found that his face, while still seeming fairly human, now had a much pinker nose, with two long rabbit ears on the top of his head.

He opened his mouth to reveal his two pointy front teeth, now slightly bigger. He takes a breath placing down the bucket, before grabbing his communicator. Opening the tab list, he finds Xisuma isn’t in-world but sees one not quite familiar face- but a familiar spirit that could help him.

_______________________________________________

Later

“Mumbo! I'm here at the exact coordinates, right under the giant mothball of death that surely won't fall on me cause it's structurally sound.” Joe Hills calls, causing Mumbo to open up one of the trap doors.

“I'm afraid you'll have to pillar up, Mate, but thank you for coming so quickly.”

“Oh, no problem at all, Mumbo.” Joe pauses beginning to pillar, “I was just gonna go ‘round restocking other people's shops with the stuff I don't need. Other than that I'm— oh.” The Juppet steps into the mothball, closing the trap door behind him, all while not taking his eyes from the younger man, er, if you could even call him that now. Mumbo was on his bed, focusing most, if not all, his attention on playing with his tie.

“I don't know what happened, Joe!” Mumbo cries, not waiting for the inevitable question. “Grian, Scar, and I had gone for drinks last night, and this morning, I woke up like this!”

“And just where was the location of these drinks that had been consumed?”

“Cleo's cafe. We wanted some drinks as they told me about the latest life game.”

“And have either of the others had any code discombobulation aswell?”

“I'm- I’m not sure actually. I haven’t gone to chat with them,” Mumbo ducks his head, fixing his suite, “To be fair, I would prefer if neither of them know that I've. . . changed. I-I haven't actually told them about this hybrid form.”

“Well, it's your choice when you want to speak on the matter, but right now I think we need to find out if the two of them have been experiencing anything out of the already unusual ordinary. I'll go ahead and get on that, in the meantime, you should probably have a think about what else it was you three were doing that could have been the cause of you to morph back to your rabbit self."

"That's the problem Joe, I can't remember anything about last night!" The rabbit cries, his ears falling back."

"Well, perhaps a walk around the shopping district could help you recall something. We can then rendezvous to Cleo’s cafe to ask if they’ve tried some new recipes once I’ve finished up collecting the information needed from Scar and Grian.”

“I suppose that could help. I'll meet you at the cafe. Thanks Joe.” Mumbo says before the Juppet departs, taking his pillar with him. Mumbo takes a deep breath, happy Joe was willing to help him. He then began shuffling through his chests for any spare carrots he had, before his communicator buzzed. However, his appetite soon deceased as he seen the message from Tango.

TangoTek> Mumbo! I gotta talk to you!

I have a whole shpeel about Mumbo having a bunny phase when he was younger. And I have proof. Season 2 Episode 12, 42 and 43. He would refer to himself as 'a happy bunny' when he was pleased with a project. However, I still have yet to find when he switched from that phrase to "chuffed to bits", updates to follow.

As for this story, I've had it in my drafts for a while and finally decided to do something with it. Hope you enjoyed and I'll catch you in my next post.

i have a weird specific problem. but does anyone else picture Pearl with significantly darker hair than she actually has. like I have some weird mandela effect thing where I remember her having like really dark brunette hair. and somehow now she's almost blonde in her current skin but my brain still exclusively pictures her with dark hair. like she is so cool toned dark blue chocolate brown colours to me and I need to know if anyone else shares this vision. has her skin's hair been getting steadily lighter over the years or am I just crazy

[whereispearlescentmoon]

Actually, kinda the opposite. The hair on her skin has gotten darker over on the years. It used to have much larger blonde highlights in it.

Example:

This is her Legacy2/season 8 era skin

This is her Empires Skin

This is her Life Series Red Life skin

This is her season 9 skin

This is her season 10 skin.

You can see she's actually gotten a lot less blonde.

[autumnmist102side]

Think there's a typo there. The firefighter skin is for Season 11.

This is her Season 10 skin:

Though she did go lighter in hair color during the last 2 episodes with this skin.

Pocket-Size Pearlo

“Cleeeeoooo.” Cleo hears from the halls of the castle. She had been in the den with her embroidery. Making mental notes of what chores they would need to attend to in the coming days. Oscar laid next to her, sprawled out on his back, in the most comfiest of ways.

“Yes Pearl?” Cleo calls, not looking up from her work. She expected Pearl would be asking to go on a flight or to at the very least visit their house that still resided in the town.

“Would you still love me if I was a bat?”

The vampire pauses her needle point. Cleo had known Pearl to ask silly questions, as was the younger woman’s wit and charm, however this one struck to close to genuine to be treated as one of her humorous antics. Had Pearl a dream that this all had been imaginary? That the battle of Oakhurst and the decision to stay had not been real? Had she hit her head and forgotten the two were turned to vampires?

“Are you alright, Pearl?” Cleo questions before feeling a presence to their left. They turn to find their roommate, albeit a much smaller version of them, at the entrance of the den. Shyly peaking out from behind the wall.

“I was just curious.” Pearl states, flying up from the floor to sit on the couch’s arm. “But would you love me if I was always like this? Fur and all?” Cleo sets her embroidery aside before scooping up the small bat.

“You forget how to turn back?” She questions, deciding it best to be straight forward with it. Pearl ducks her head but nods.

“I was going to, but then I started thinking about it, and then I overthought it and now. . . I can’t change back.” She looks up at Cleo with big sad eyes, “Help?”

“I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do.” Cleo smiles, shifting Pearl to one hand, “Except maybe start making smaller clothes for you.” She tickles the bat’s stomach for Pearl to squeak, pushing the vampires claw away.

“I’m sure you’ll change back in a day or so.” Cleo says, standing and going to the window. They look out at the moon, the hint of red lighting it.

“There should be a blood moon in a few days anyways. You’ll be able to change back via your wolf form.” They set Pearl on their shoulder. “Until then I supposed I should get used to you being pocket size.”

“Pocket size?” Pearl perks at that before looking down at Cleo’s attire, “Does this dress have pockets?”

“Not this one, however I was just about to go and do a bottle restock, which does require our aprons.” They eye the little bat, “Would you like to have some pocket time, Pearl?”

“I would like to have some pocket time.” Pearl nods for their roommate to giggle as they headed to their chores.

Cleo was sure to wear her dresses that contained pockets over the next three nights, before finally the blood moon arrived. Pearl had shifted to her wolf for rather easily, and to celebrate, the two had gone for a run.

Enjoying the wind in their hair and the added strength from the ethereal moon, the patrolled the woods, taking down any bandits that dared threatened their home. They then returned to the castle, nestling beside each other in the den. Pearl’s head on Cleo’s lap. She nuzzled their hand –a thank-you for their patience and care. Cleo pet their puppy’s fur and– as the warmth of the sun shown through the castle window– Pearl easily shifted back to her not-quite-human human form.

There was a call (not really but I seen it so why not?) by @petrichor-system-mcyt and @vsmpheadcanons and I have answered. Apologies for not including the fruit bit of that head-cannon as I had forgotten about it until I reread the post.

Sunflower Duo

Fun Moment from the end of Pearl's Geyser Bridge Adjustments stream that I needed to see drawn.

To be fair, with moments like these, nothing really beats the silliness of the original block people imagery in my opinion, but it is always fun to draw. :D

Fanny Pack Fiasco

“Skiiiizz!” The Angel hears as the doors to Impulse’s trading hall opens. He had come over to grab some spare quarts blocks for his next build.

“Hi Gemmy Bemmy. What’s up?” He says putting away another stack of emeralds.

“I need leather for my–” Gem stops, spotting the tan oblong bag around Skizz’s waist, “What– are you wearing?”

“Oh this?” Skizz smiles turning from the villagers to show off the small pouch. “I got it at the hub yesterday. Really good for holding spare emeralds. You like it?”

“No!” Gem grimaces, “Why would you get one of those? They're so cringe especially when you where it like that.”

“Aw c’mon now Gemmy Bemmy.” Skizz grins, teasingly now. “You can’t tell me this isn’t like having a purse or something.”

“Purses aren’t worn right above you’re crotch, Skizz!” Gem counters, sinking into her shoulders, “Also they’re bigger and aren't as weird to wear as that thing. It’s not even a good color!”

“Well, you know, I could go back and get more. They did have a neon blue one available.”

“Ugh! That's not what I meant! I mean it doesn't go with your outfit and the blue one would be worse! It'd make you stick out like a sore thumb!” She huffs for the Angel to laugh.

“What? You mean you wouldn't want to be seen with me? You know there was a hot pink one at the store. We could match. Could even get your name sewn into it."

"Absolutely not!"

"Aw c'mon, could come in handy what with all those little details you're putting in your base”

“I wouldn’t be caught dead in one, Skizz! Anyone who wear’s that is out of their mind!”

“Skizzly!” The two hear before Pearl flies in, skidding to a halt before walking over. Gem can’t help but notice Pearl sporting a similar polka dotted pouch on her hip as Skizz greets the Aussie.

"Digging the fanny pack Poppers." Skizz says, "Gotta say polka dots definitely your style."

"Thanks, Skizzly. I got it from the gift shop when Scar and I went to watch the new Toy Story movie. Not as bad as we originally thought. Still was just a cash grab though. He got Star Wars one.”

“Of course he does.” Gem rolls her eyes for Skizz to giggle. Pearl turns to the redhead.

"And just why do I hear the subtlest hint of judgement?

“Because I was just telling Skizz how horrible those things were."

"They are not! Gem just wants to play style cop here and say our fashion choices are commendable. You don't think they're lame, right Poppers?"

“No, they’re great! Small, compact, and since they come in so many colors, you can have one for every occasion!” Pearl counters for Gem to roll her eyes.

“Well at least you wear it better than Skizz does.”

“Wha-! This is the best place for it! Right in front. I don’t have to twist, and I don’t gotta risk pulling something to get out my emeralds.” He says pulling some out as some pocket lint escapes as well.

“Still looks bad.” Gem huffs before Pearl pipes up.

“Well, why don’t you try one Gem?”

“No way!” The Canadian shakes her head, “The day I try one is the day the nether freezes over.”

“Oh,” Pearl’s wings droop, “well then should I take this gift back?” She holds up a blue and polka dotted present. Gem slowly takes a breath, praying to Notch that Pearl wasn't serious.

“It’s just– I thought we could match and seeing as you have all those little details for your interiors, thought it would come in handy. But if you'd rather have something else–” She turns to leave for Gem to grab her arm.

“Now hold on.” Gem pauses a slight guilt now in her chest, “I at least want to see how bad it is."

"No, you don't. It's bad. Almost as bad as mine."

"Yeah, but you can make it work, and I at least want to see what character you got me."

"I don't know. You seemed like you've made up your mind about them."

"Give me the box, Pearl!" Gem demands, tired of this back and forth.

"Okaaaaay." Pearl says slowly passing her the present.

The red head makes herself comfortable on one of the shulkers, before tearing into the gift, ignoring the other two’s silent eye-conversation.

“Honestly, I know I said they were abhorrent, but I at least want to see–” Gem stops upon opening the box. Instead of a fanny pack like Pearl sported, there was a small satchel like bag. Lifting it up, she seen that it had the iconic duo of Minnie and Daisy on it.

“Got ya.” Pearl laughs as Skizz joins in. Gem gives a sigh of relief.

“I thought you said it was like yours.”

“It is like mine! Except yours had Daisy on it as well as Minnie." Pearl pauses to smirk, "C'mon you really think I wouldn't remember all the times you've said you wouldn't be caught dead in one of these? I knew an over the shoulder bag was more your style."

“Well, thank you for that consideration.” Gem says hopping up to give Pearl a hug, “I don’t know what’d I’d do if you had actually gotten me one.”

“You’d probably fill it with bricks and kill us with it.” Skizz states, “Though you know, I could still get you that pink embroidered one–”

“Not on your life.”

I saw a post from @2dadsfromaz about which hermits would wear a fanny pack and decided to write a drabble about it. Thank you for the inspiration!

Ally Pearl Incorrect Quotes

You know, I see so many posts that say the fandom mischaracterizes Pearl, and it always makes me question if I do that too. Maybe I do, maybe I don't. But I know one thing, during Pride it's always just so much fun to have Pearl be like:

Anyways, idk if this will be my last post for June or not so if I don't post again this month, Happy Pride!

[zer0caffeine]

Original post by @morallygrayautisticscientist here, this post was so funny I decided to draw it lol.

For those of you who joked about Stratt projecting her period cramps on Grace, I drew that too here.

Panel by panel below:

[autumnmist102side]

You know, I usually think I'm pretty normal about the Minecraft YouTubers I like. . .That being said, I thought this was Pearl and Cambam and got really confused why Pearl was shouting "Grace!" Before I actually looked at the tags. . . So there's that.

Antagonist Pearl for Pantheon

Okay, it’s somewhat known (at least by most Spuds) that Pearl is debating being an antagonist for PanSMP, and plans to wait and upload a movie at the end of it all instead of doing episodes. She said this in her ‘I Have Some Thoughts’ Vod at about 3:00:44 if you want more info.

Well, I’ve been doing some thinking. Did thinking last night, did thinking this morning on my walk. I’ve been thinking.

Pearl’s gonna be hard to dislike. She’s sweet, she’s funny, all around silliest of gooses. But— But she can be a lovable antagonist, and more than likely will be reading the comments on the other vampires champions’ episodes to get ideas and see just how she’s coming across to the audience. She said in her vod that she hopes people will understand that she as a CC would never go and bully anyone, but her Pantheon character would.

Now, here’s the thing, if she plays her cards well, as in, becomes an antagonist people love— an antagonist people love to hate even— that sets her up to have the confidence to play the antagonist in the future. (this is important for a future post)

Just giving her confidence in general with roleplay would be great, and I love love LOVE that Owen reached out and asked her to join vampires. I still remember the raid in which he mentioned that they don’t do a lot together and said he’d poke Pearl for a project. I just. . . I want so bad for this antagonist thing to go well for her, and am so excited for Pantheon to give her this chance.

Now do I know anything about Greek Mythology? Eh, slightly. I know about Hestia being technically Ace. I know Zeus sleeps around. I know about Odysseus (learnt bout him in high school) and Poseidon, Hercules and Megaera (Herc kills her at some point I think). I know about Cerberus and Hades. . . That’s it. Oh, and I know there’s one named Athena. Other than that, lost as a goat with a bucket on its head, but I am excited!

Let's remember: Asexuality is the absence or lack of ATTRACTION of the sexual kind. I know a lot of the memes and stuff we see often imply us not liking or having anything to do with sex, but that's not always the case. So, wherever you are on the favorable–repulse spectrum of asexuality, know that you are valid and we love you here.

More Hermit Pride Stuff

Happy Pride! Was really excited to post this.

Also what Pearl and Mumbo said is true! You are valid! Whether you're out or not, have found your label or are still looking, you are valid and we support you here! Remember to stay safe, stay happy and be proud of who you are! We love you here! ❤️

To our wonderful, beautiful, most whimsical Aussie streamer. May her day be as bright as she makes ours. ❤️

LGBallT Comic #2

Does anyone else's brain do this!? I can't be the only one.

Also, the little heart on Ace is to incorporate parts of the new ace flag. I like the meanings of the stripes but not so much their design. (Personal opinion. You can do what you want.)

Also the pale green sword is to help represent loveless aces, because the loveless flag (at least the ones I've seen) uses pale green and a sword, and I thought it'd be a cool design going through the heart.

Avid

Disclaimer: I didn't watch Avid except for his first vampire's episode, other than that I was pretty indifferent about him.

However, with that being said, I did have an opinion about his vampire's character.

Some may have picked up on it in my As The Moon is Red fic, if not here it is, but I SO wanted Avid to be the villain in Vampires.

And I mean that I wanted him to turn into the villian, not be a villian from the get-go.

I wanted his paranoia to consume him. Making him practically go mad. Declaring himself leader of the town, running 'tests' to see if someone was a vampire, exiling anyone who didn't comply, making plans to invade the castle, and just being so controlling and demanding that both townsfolk and vampires would want him gone. (again character Avid) Then the townsfolk and vampires pulling an' ol' enemy of my enemy is my friend thing.

I wanted the breaking point for one or both groups to be him killing Drift because he believed she'd been turned when she hadn't been. And then have him trying to go on a murderous rampage to destroy everyone else.

I wanted him to be the villain.

I just didn't know why.

But other than that, I didn't engage with the talk of the harassment tweets, and now that this has all come out I just gotta say. . . Dang.

To be honest, I've been there with a creator that I had liked. So, I know it sucks hearing that they're not a good person. It sucks a lot.

But absolutely go and show support to the SBK crew, the artists and other victims who have had to go through this. My heart goes out to them and all of the former Avid fans. Much love Darlings.

Get Waxed

Warning: T-words

“We are never ever ever. Getting back together. Hmm hm hmmm hm hmmm hmmm talk to my friends, talk to me.” Gem hums bopping her head the music coming from her comm. She needed something to make organizing this storage system bearable and music was the first idea she had.

“Okay all nether wart organized. Now to just–”

Beep Boop Boop Beeeep

“Ugh, Etho,” Gem groans, not bothering to look at the man, “I’ve already told you, those things are cute, but I don’t need them for my storage. It’s just a small one.”

Boop Boop Boo-bop

“I swear if he just placed one and left, I’ll–” Gem stops upon turning around. Much to her surprise, before her stood a very familiar, albeit now angry, copper golem.

“Oh my Notch.” The red-head breathes before laughing as she rushes and scoops up her favorite Australian.

“Boop Boo-Boo-Boooop.” Pearl beeps trying to push out of Gem’s arms before inevitably resigning herself to the red head’s affection, ignoring the heat now coating her face plates.

“You are adorable! I haven’t seen you like this since I was a blaze hybrid!” Gem coos, finally loosening her grip some.

“Beep blip boop bop.”

“Why do you have your robot noises though?” Gem’s eyes widen, “Or did your voice switch to it when you morphed?”

“Bee-Bee-Beep boop.” Pearl bleeps, trying to pry her way out of Gem’s hold again. She scans the storage before spotting a redstone chest. She points to it, looking up at the Canadian.

Gem sets her down, biting back a smile as she watches her little copper golem scurry over to the chest and retrieve a redstone torch that she shows to Gem. The red-head can’t hold back a giggle as she grants permission for Pearl to use it.

“-op” Pearl beeps, shoving the torch in her mouth like a three-year-old. Gem cups her face, doing her best to hold in all the teases and coos she wanted to say.

“Om nom nom.” Pearl swallows before taking a breath, “Whew, honestly, it’s bad enough that my magpie form gives me enough flashback to Wild Life. Geez.” Gem giggles again for Pearl to turn to her.

“What you giggling at, huh?”

“Just the fact you’re technically shorter than me now.” Gem’s grin widens before she spots a slight bluish green tint on Pearl’s shoulder cuff. “Have you not waxed yet?”

“Huh?” Gem nods to the spot for Pearl to see it, “Oh. No, but I’m sure X will have this fixed before I need it, and I always have my axe on me.”

“Pearrrrrl, X left for the snapshot world this morning. He won’t be back again for three days. You’re gonna need wax. You don’t want a repeat of that one time do you?” She huffs for Pearl to cringe, “We were lucky Owen was still a copper golem at the time.”

Pearl ducks her head recalling the day in New life. She had woken up completely oxidized one morning, unable to move anything. Joints, neck, limbs– she couldn’t even open her eyes. Fortunately, Owen was able to receive her S.O.S. and find her.

“It took me, Shelby, and Katherine all day to scrape off all the oxidized bits, and I know it was torture for you.” Gem says turning from a chest, some beeswax in hand. “Now c’mon, the sooner we do this the safer you’ll be.”

“N-now wait a minute, Gem! We can talk about this!” Pearl sputters, quickly backing away as Gem advances with the horrible substance.

“We can,” Gem says grabbing Pearl as she turns to run. “while I make sure you can’t rust.”

She sits on her floor, wrestling a protesting Pearl into her lap before she begins rubbing the wax onto Pearl’s head pieces, focusing her attention on the joints. Pearl tries desperately to pry her way out of the now taller girl’s hold.

“No, Gem! C’mon plehease not– Eep!” Pearl squeaks before falling into giggles as her shoulders scrunch. “Gehehehehehehem!”

“C’mon Pearly.” Gem giggles, catching Pearl’s wrist as it flings up.

“No! Stahahahahahahap!” The golem laughs feeling her arm getting stretched and the wax getting applied to it. She twists around only to be pinned to Gem’s wooden floorboards. The evil dragoness giving the golem an all too familiar tongue-in-teeth smile.

“Awww, does my little copper golem have the giggle wiggles?” She teases making Pearl scrunch her eyes as her body squirmed more.

“Noohohohoho! Nohoho teheheheheasihihihihng! Gem!” Pearl begs as the Canadian starts on her side.

“I can’t believe you’re still this ticklish even as a copper golem. You’d think you wouldn’t have any nerves.”

“Ghehehehehehehem! Please! Beep bee-beep boop!” She bleeps, struggling to get her wrist free. Meanwhile, debating whether to grab Gem’s other hand or not.

“Pleeease make sure to get your belly?” She asks, tracing the beeswax up to it before going in circles. “Well, if you really want me to.”

“Nahahahah! Beep Bop Bop!”

“Awww, aren’t you adorable!?”

“Stahahahahp! Dohohohn’t cahahall me cuttttte! Boop beep boop!”

“I didn’t call you cute. I called you adorable. There’s a difference.” Gem states matter-of-factly. She grabs Pearl’s other arm, starting the wax coating on it.

“I dohohon’t cahahahare! I ahahaham nahahahat!”

“Oh yes you are! Just look at you! All giggly and squirmy, and obviously I love that pretty smile.”

“Gehehehehehm nohohohohoho! Beep beep bloop!”

“C’mon now, I’m nearly done with this top bit. Just gotta do the waste plate and legs before making sure those feet plates are clean enough for this. If not I’ll need a brush.”

“Theres nohohoh nehehehed for thahahahat!” Pearl insists, her head shaking wildly. However her voice falls onto deaf ears.

Gem continues her torment, smearing the wax onto Pearl waste before scrubbing at the legs, focusing her attention on the knee panels. Finally, she grabbed a hold of Pearl’s ankles.

“Gem! Gem! Plehehease.” Pearl giggles, attempting to crawl backwards to get out of Gem’s hold. The red head smears some wax around the ankle before looking at the base of her foot. She grimaces.

“Did you walk to my base!? These things are filthy! Looks like I’m gonna need a brush after all.” She turns, reaching into a chest to bring out the feathered torture device.

“Gem no, Gem no! Nohohot the brush-sh!” Pearl sputters, as Gem pulls her back towards her.

“We can’t use water, Pearl, and the wax won’t work if you’ve got all this dust on you.”

“Just use a piece of leather! Or wool! Or– or something!”

“Why?” Gem smirks, waving the brush teasingly at her, “Scared this brush is gonna make you giggle?” Pearl cups her hands over her mouth, turning away

“Ah ah ah!” Gem gently takes her wrists pulling them away, “I wanna see that smile.” Pearl whines, trying to grip the floorboards.

“Now, answer my question. Why you so scared of the brushy brushy brush?” Gem teases, dusting over Pearl’s stomach for the golem to cover her eyes.

“Nohohoho!”

“Well, if you can’t give me a reason.” She pauses, dusting down her legs and to the tips of the Aussie’s feet plates. Pearl tries her best to hold back her giggles.

“Behehehcausssse it’s nahat fahahair!”

“Ooooh, I know, but it’s more fun this way.”

“You mean more fun for yoohohohohohohu! Nahahahaha!” Pearl screams as Gem starts getting the bottom plates. The Canadian being sure the feathers made their ways into the treds. Pearl kept her eyes hidden, pleads and giggles pouring from her mouth simultaneously.

“Gotta hold still Pearly. Or else this will take us all day.” Gem teases before catching Pearl’s other leg.

“Don’t you dare try to kick me, Pearlescentmoon.” She scolds before pinning the golem’s legs under her knees. She plucks a feather from the brush.

“Gem wait! Gem wait! I’m sorrehehehehy! BAhahahahaha!”

“You’re gonna think you’re sorry when I’m done with you.” Gem says brushing both feet. The two go on like this Gem swapping the bush and the feather every now and then, even threatening to bring out a whole new brush, until finally both feet were clean.

“I hope you learnt that lesson. Now,” Gem sets her tools down before retrieving another piece of beeswax from the chests making Pearl gulp.

“G– Gem– Gem please.” Pearl eyeing the dreaded substance, “You know– I– I’m too sensitive.”

“Yes but you have to be able to walk though. The rain will damage you more if you get caught out in it, and considering you’ll be walking back home. . .” Gem takes a deep breath, breaking the new beeswax in half, “I’m gonna have to do it heavy.”

“No. Gem. Please no! Have mercihihihihihihihi!” Pearl arches her back, feeling the beeswax being scrubbed against her plates. Beeps, pleads, and laughter erupted from her as she felt the wax making her more sensitive to the scrubbing.

“It’s for your own good, Pearly. Besides,” Gem smirks down at the wiggling golem, “Wouldn’t want my favorite little copper golem getting caught in the rain now would I? Why if anything happened to you, I would miss that adorable smile of yours, not to mention how tick- tick- ticklish you are.”

“Gehehehehem! No! Nahat thahahahahaht! Bloop bleep bleep beep boop!”

“Yes this Pearly! You need it. Even though it's triggering my cuteness agression.” Gem grins, making the wax go into the treds.

“Nohohohoho! Boop bop!”

“Awww, what's wrong? Is my Australian a bit Tick-tick-ticklish.”

“GEHEHEHEHM!” Pearl shrieks, her laughter growing silent.

“Yes my favorite little Pearly? Hm? What? Can’t handle a eensy weensy bit of tickling? You know I’m barely touching you. Awww, such a cute little guy! My cute little Pearly pop all giggly. Loving all the tick-tick-tickles.”

Thickth

Gem immediately pulls away, dropping the beeswax. Pearl finally takes in a huge breath of air,

“Soorrey!” Gem pauses, “Are you alright!?” She lays a gentle hand on Pearl's leg.

“Y-y-yeah.” Pearl breathes, her head lulling back and forth. She takes in another deep breath, “The– the bu– bubblesh.” Gem nods. Every hermit already knew Pearl was ticklish but only a few knew she could actually laugh herself into suffocation mode if things get too intense.

“Soorey. I forgot the silent laugh tends to be the sign to let up. You sure you’re okay?” The red-head gently pulls her best friend up and into her lap. Pearl nods, continuing to take deep breaths, listening to Gem’s heartbeat.

“Yeah– I’m– I’m good. Knew you’d– pull away at the first– d-damage tick.” She swallows, “Still not– as bad as the time . . . I saw Skizz’s– T-Tazzy devil.” Gem pets her head piece, chuckling.

“I still can’t believe you laughed yourself to death. Genuinely freaked out Tango and Skizz.”

“What about Griba?” Pearl looks up at her.

“He was too busy loosing his birdseed to care about anything else.” She states for the two to laugh. They stay there a moment more, Gem slowly stroking Pearl’s arm.

“You sure you’re alright? Didn’t overheat or anything?” The red-head asks, cupping the golem’s face and turning it to look at her. Pearl gives a smile before nodding.

“I’m fine. I’ve had worse than that many times. I mean you remember the Secret life sleepover.” She shivers for Gem to chuckle.

“Anyways,” Pearl climbs out of her lap for Gem to spot something. “I guess since I’m here, I could help ya with this storage system, huh?”

“Um, yeah, if you want. But, um, there’s something else we gotta do first.” The Canadian states for the golem to tilt her head to the side.

“And what would that be?”

“Well . . .” Gem bites her lip, furrowing her brows, “I didn’t get your back.” Pearl twists an arm around to feel the plate.

“Ah beeeeeep.”

LGBallT+ Comic

I remembered this from two weeks ago. Strange experience, but possibly a relatable one.

Yeeeaaah, I still don't know what to make of the experience. But figured it'd be an interesting comic.
