From Evolution SMP times. Oh how things have changed... *insert "pathetic" Grian diamonds meme from season 7*
Grian: I hit a little bit of a cave there, found some diamonds, I'm now up to seven. What a pitiful amount! People on other SMPs are like (in a snooty voice) "I've only got five stacks of diamonds, it's not nearly enough" and I- I'm just happy that I've got seven. Look at that! That's my pride and joy.

yes hello im watching evo now to find out more about the watchers from last life martyn inthelittlewoods
anyway
how does this make yall feel from a story telling pov
random thoughts under the readmore
im obsessed with the body language being shown here
(this is like-- a semi-transcript)
taurtis catches grian talking to himself and lightly mocks/teases him. "talking to yourself again?" (grian was bare-handed and then switches to carrying an diamond axe [grian wtf that feels so threatening] ) grian sounds a bit mm strained when he states "the audience, im talking to the audience."
"oh yea the audience, yea right" [he sounds so condescending here taurtis what]
they move closer to one another. (grians swaps from his axe to his pickaxe) they're not looking directly at each other. taurtis is slightly to the left of grian, just out of crosshair. [this is the start of taurtis shimmy-ing around to keep out of grian's crosshair why does he keep doing this taurtis why are trying so hard to stay away]
"does the audience talk back to you grian?" [taurtis says grian with a slight inflection on the -ian and its?? why is he being vaugely condescending about it.]
quietly, [you could barely hear him if your audio was low.] grian mumbles "sometimes..."
taurtis moves closer but still not in the crosshair, "sometimes?"
then like, not mockingly but like almost condescending ig, "yea okay."
which overlaps with grians stutter, "usual-usually"
grian looks down slightly, "-yea in text form" [this is obviously about us commenting on his videos but 'in-character' its fascinating! does this mean he sees words floating in his vision?]
grian looks back up and taurtis asks, "does the-" he moves left slightly, "does the audience tell you to do bad-" he looks towards the right now and backs away " things and-" (grians looks away here briefly, before looking back at taurtis again.) taurtis does a little spin "-blow up-" and moves toward grian again "-peoples properties and stuff?" [this is like, the most taurtis has moved in one moment homie u good?]
grian looks up slightly, "actually they do," (taurtis awkwardly laughs) "quite a lot" taurtis laughs again and as he backs away says "do they?" in a slightly incredulous tone of voice. grian awkwardly laughs with him and affims, "they do, they-"
taurtis says something here i cant discern
"youre blaming " taurtis moves closer to grian, not in his face but deffo near bumping into grian's shoulder. " the voices in your head?"
[okay so with player physics you can like-almost phase into another player before you bump into them and the game registers this as a solid collision and physics the opposing character away from you. im not sure if this is what taurtis did to grian or if grian simply moved away.]
grian backs away and finally moves to where he's looking taurtis in the eyes (aka the crosshair is finally directly on taurtis). "No lo- no, no legitimately"
taurtis backs away and angles himself away, he's almost but not quite out of the crosshair. [he's trying so hard to be out of grian's crosshair without being terribly obvious about it]
grian steps closer and his crosshair is still on him, "people who watch evo are like" they're both laughing and taurtis finally moves out grian's crosshair.
grian then mock-yells, pretending to be the audience "burn the squid! burn the squid! burn the squid!"
"oh my gosh" taurtis murmurs as he looks off then looks back at grian. (this is overlapping with with grian)
"burn netty's house!" taurtis awkwardly laughs. (overlapping again)
"destroy the property police station!" taurtis backs away again and angles his body away and out of grian's crosshairs.
"tnt spawn!" he moves forward into grians crosshairs
"destroy the world!"
"they're blood-thirsty dude." he turns 180 and moves out of grians crosshair. "oh my gosh" he looks off to the side. [hes like, astonished at this]
grian moves to keep taurtis in his crosshair
"theyre just-" taurtis snaps to look at grian directly "they're just valued members of the grian empire" [grian wtf why does this sound so ominous]
"of course, of course" taurtis does a little nod and he looks off to the side and upward. [taurtis feels, like wary?? but accepting of this.]
so uh???? bestie help i analyzed an evo clip for no reason
Mumbo: Yeah, it does. I mean it literally rings a bell. I, like, I don’t even know what to say to you, like, I I I’m both proud and disappointed. I couldn’t really muster a laugh. I don’t know what to say.
