I am not immune to Minecraft YouTube propaganda-
(Also this is so long and this is only for the first video, it’s 3 something in the morning as I type this. I’ll watch the second one tomorrow.)
ThatMob: A cardboard box obviously-
Reader: -I can see that, but why is it moving and making noises ??
ThatMob: Dude do I look like I know everything ?
ThatMob: *Opens the cardboard box* ..what the hell is this ?
Verity: *Bouncing like a rubber ball* ow.. ugh..
Reader: A h.. uh.. *carefully grabs Verity before another bounce* ..you good there little guy ?
Verity: Whew thanks.. Hello ! I’m Verity, your personal helper friend ! Ask me anything. I know everything !
Reader:…..Of all the things you could ask.
ThatMob: Gonna maybe build a house and a lookout..
Reader: Okay, that sounds about decent enough for us.
ThatMob: I’ll build it cause you’ll take years if you do.
Reader: No I won’t ! I just.. like to find a nice color palette for the stuff I build !
Verity: *Slightly muffled* Would you like some recommended wood color palettes ?
Reader: Huh ? *pulls Verity out* You can do that ??
Reader: Oh my goodness, yes absolutely ! *pets Verity gently.*
ThatMob:…I could pull a ‘color palette’ out of my [redacted]-
Reader: Stop asking about random animal noises.. please.
ThatMob: F i n e.. was getting bored anyway..
Reader: We could you know.. keep going and find somewhere for our house and lookout ?
ThatMob: Probably.. wait.. hey Verity where’s the nearest diamonds ?
Reader: I don’t think it’ll-
Verity: -Y Level -58, 73 blocks northeast.
ThatMob: *Laughing* ..what ? Maybe he is useful, but if that’s wrong I’m drop kicking you into the ocean.
Reader: Wha.. no ??? *Hugs Verity.*
Verity: *Smiling very widely* ..I tell the truth and only the truth !
ThatMob: *Rolls his eyes* yeah, yeah we’ll see about that.
Reader: *Trading with a villager* ..Is this even a good trade ?
Reader: *Jumps* ..uh why not ?
Verity: It’s a terrible idea.
Reader: Oh okay ? I’ll check with some other villagers.. thank you.
Verity:….You’re very welcome.
Reader: He’s building the house.. guess I should get some more food, wanna come with me Verity ?
Verity: Gladly ! I’ll go wherever you go.
Verity: You’re welcome, it is my job as your personal helper friend.
Reader: Right for me and Mob.
ThatMob: Is there another village nearby ? For different trades and stuff.
Verity: Yes, south. But I would avoid the ones to the east.
Reader: Huh ? What happened ?
Verity: Uh, the villagers are gone.
ThatMob: Gone ? Like they disappeared or ?
Reader: That.. I don’t like that.
ThatMob: Stuff happens, probably got eaten by zombies or something..
ThatMob: *Looking around* Huh, it really is empty.
ThatMob: Here lemme see Verity.
ThatMob: To ask about.. *gestures to the empty village* ..the obvious ?
ThatMob: Verity what happened here ?
Verity:..Something passed through.
Verity:…Something that was hungry.
Reader: Dude.. I think.. we should go home, I’m getting scared.
ThatMob: Yeah, way ahead of you there.. *grabs reader’s hand.*
ThatMob: *Messing in chests.*
Verity: Do you live alone ?
Reader: Hm ? No.. I live with Mob and you I guess, why ?
ThatMob: *Glances over at the two.*
Verity:..What’s your favorite place in the world ?
Reader: Probably my bed, I like to sleep a lot.
Verity: That sounds nice.
ThatMob: Oh is he asking us questions now ?
Reader:….Does Verity look different to you ?
Reader: I dunno his smile is.. off, and I swear he talks differently than before too.
ThatMob: Maybe you’re just tired, pouring over your enchantments and potato farm.
Reader: Both benefit us.. but they’re not that tiring !
ThatMob: Hey Verity.. play me something, like.. a song.
Verity: *Insert the song here.*
Reader: This is.. pretty.
ThatMob: *Holds out a hand.*
Reader: Oh no you don’t-!
ThatMob: -Oh yes I do.. *lightly tugs reader into a little dance.*
Reader: *Slightly stumbling but smiling* Dang it mob..
Verity: *Grinding his teeth together.*
Reader: *Walks downstairs to the muffled sound of music* ..Verity ? What are you doing ?
Reader: Oh kay.. it’s a good thing Mob’s a heavy sleeper, almost thought I heard that in my dreams.
Reader: *Gets out a bucket of water to drink from.*
Verity: Do you like to dance ?
Reader: Um not particularly, but I don’t mind it on occasion.
Verity:..Would you dance with me ?
Reader: Dance with.. you ? Is that something you want ? *sets bucket down.*
Reader:….Okay, easy there tiger *carefully picks up Verity* we’ll just sway around and stuff.. easy.
Verity: *The music softens as Reader sways with him in their arms.*
ThatMob: *Sits up and stretches* mornin’ Verity, anything I need to know-
Verity: -Something is coming in three days.
Reader: *Rolls over in the bed* Mm ?
Verity: Something is coming in three days.
Reader: That’s.. that’s not really helpful ?
ThatMob: Is it something bad ?
Reader: *Looks to ThatMob* ..Dude.
ThatMob: Whatever it is.. we could stop it right ?
ThatMob: -Just a second, here put this on. *tosses diamond armor at Reader.*
Reader: I.. *sighs and puts the armor on* ..can we talk about this ? Something isn’t right about this.
ThatMob: I know and I’m gonna do something about it… trust me.
Reader: *Grabbing some cooked potatoes* Verity ? You look.. really different.
Verity: I’ve always looked like this.
Reader:..No you didn’t, I know you didn’t.
Verity: I’ve always looked like this.
Reader: *Holds a hand over him for a moment before letting it fall* ..what’s gotten into you ?
ThatMob: I don’t know what’s up with Verity, but he’s clearly not normal.
ThatMob: We’re gonna build a wall around the house for extra protection, and.. we’ll have a talk with him tonight.
Reader: *Sighs and slowly nods* yeah.. that’s a good idea.
Reader: *Glances outside* ..did it have to rain ?
ThatMob: The weather has a way of.. sensing the dramatic I guess, kinda sucks..
Reader: Let’s.. just get this over with.
ThatMob: *Nods and walks up the stairs in front of Reader* Verity..
Reader: We need to talk..
ThatMob: The empty villages, the.. thing that was hungry..
ThatMob:..Was that you ? Are you the thing that’s coming ?
Verity: *Starts playing that song again.*
ThatMob: Are you kidding me ? You.. no.. I’m done with this.. with you.. *leads Reader back downstairs.*
ThatMob: -Sleeping.. in the morning we’re dealing with him.
ThatMob: *Starts placing dirt blocks over Verity* ..alrighty Verity, I think you’ve been in this world longer than we have.
Reader: *Watching ThatMob as he makes his way downstairs.*
ThatMob: I think you knew what happened to those villages.. so.. we’re gonna leave you here-
Reader: Maybe we should’ve used cobblestone..
ThatMob: *Shrugs and nudges Reader out of the house* no use now.. let’s just head to the lookout.
Verity: I know where your base is..!
ThatMob: Course you do, you.. you know everything.
Verity: It’s already over.. you’re mine.
ThatMob: *Starts walking off.*
Reader: *Follows mob while looking back at the house wearily.*
ThatMob: I’m done.. I knew we shouldn’t have trusted you..
ThatMob: We should be fine, trapped Verity in.. and we’re at the lookout.. we’ll be safe.
Reader:….What if that doesn’t hold him ? Or whatever he is.
ThatMob: Then we’ll figure it out, like we always have.. got food and weapons.. and you got me.
Reader: And there was one bed..
ThatMob: We’ve shared before, don’t make a fuss about it now..
ThatMob: And you steal all the blankets, yet I deal with it.
Reader: *Rolls their eyes and tries to sit on the bed.*
*Verity is nearby, you cannot fall asleep.*
Reader: No.. no.. how ? I thought he said three days ?
ThatMob:…It can’t be here..
Reader: *Takes out axe* we.. we’ll be okay, like you said..
ThatMob: Yeah.. got a sword..
ThatMob: And a full set of armor too.. *opens the door to the lookout* ..we got this.
Reader: *Grips the handle of their axe tighter as they hear familiar music.*
ThatMob: *Shining a flashlight around* that’s his music.. *moves the beam of light till it stops on something.*
???: *Its bones crack as it turns to the two.*
Reader: Ver.. Verity is that.. you-?
???:………………Mine…… *screeches as it reaches for reader.*
ThatMob: Hell no- *grabs Reader and takes off up the stairs.*
