Happy snake gay 5 year anniversary to those who celebrate 🎊🎊 🎉🎉
Guess what game I recently finished
I do not "think before I place my voxels" I do not "look up references" I put my chisel on 1x1 and I lock the fuck in. and if I don't like it? I break the block.

[Image Description: Tags that say the following: #listen i have the perfect psychological torture scheme for that man #step 1: follow him around for a couple days and perform the most subtle innocuous magic you can #the candle he was about to light is somehow spontaneously already burning. the room smells like cherries after he mentions them. #step 2: scale it up a bit. when he gestures angrily to dismiss his courtier there's a spontaneous gust of wind in his chambers #he orders the castle groundskeeper to trim back those awful hedges and then suddenly the leaves fall off each bush right before his eyes #he yells at his councilors to just be QUIET already and for the next two minutes they literally cannot speak #step 3: uther must confront the horrifying realization that he himself is gifted with the magic he so utterly despises #to be clear i don't even necessarily think that there would be some big changing of his ways or anything #but i think it would ruin him. i think it would drive him fucking bonkers #bbc merlin /End ID]
i love this scene so much. i wish re-genes and their mad-scientist girlfriends were real
