Part 2 of the Mindcrackers! I'm still continuing these little portraits of the mindcrackers for practice drawing guys. It's been very helpful and a nice warm up these past couple days. Part three will hopefully be done soon since there's only a few more left.
This was started a year ago (Seriously, a full year)(also that means this was thought of before people left the group and such) and i stopped halfway before remembering it yesterday and picking it up again. Hopefully the part where i stopped and started isn't obvious. (i don't think it is though? hm.) This is a silly idea born from me and one of my friends conversations during lunch and supported by fanart, an idea that escalated way too quickly and only now i have finished. Hope you all like it! c: Tips are certainly welcome, i don't write a lot but i would still like to improve! (There is pretty much no shipping in this though if you squint super hard?? don’t hurt your eyes though.)
“Alright! Squirrelytrouble28 just asked what’s the worst gift you've ever received? Um hm I don't think I've ever really gotten a bad gift I mean this one time someone gave me a box of apparently bacon mints which was really weird, what about you guys?” Guude glanced around at the others who were gathered near spawn, they had just finished a caving expedition –which went very well despite the worry of having an abnormally large group of ten people- and had decided to pass the time by asking the stream questions. The questions varied from favorite foods to what color underwear they were wearing (some of the mindcrackers being all too happy to answer, which created many innuendos and laughter)
“Well i was given a butter flavored lollipop once, which was horrible I might add,” Pause grimaced at the memory before continuing “Wouldn't say that’s the worst though…but nothing else really comes to mind at the moment sooo.” He ended with a shrug.
“I don't know why but a friend gave me a yodeling pickle-don't even ask why exists at all but that was really weird but also cool I guess.” Bdubs said once Pause was done.
“I was given really short shorts, and I mean really short with the word ‘sexy’ sprawled on the back. That was interesting.” Millbee inputted, causing a burst of laughter and giggling.
“Why don't you ever wear them?” MC questioned with a grin, earning him a laugh and shake of the head from the sheep.
“No way they're terrible! but what about you, what’s the worst gift you've gotten?”
MC paused before answering, “I don’t really have a weirdest gift though I have gotten some strange ones before, nothing too extraordinary though.”
“Nothing really weird but I did get a constellation mug that shows up when you fill it so that was nice, not bad though.” Kurt said after a nudge from Zisteau, who spoke after him,
“Well I've gotten some weird gifts, a lot actually…some of which actually inspired some of my ideas. The first one that comes to mind actually is based on my next prank so unfortunately I can't tell you, sorry!” he chuckled and grinned as the group exchanged nervous but excited glances as to who would be on the receiving end of his prank.
“Nothing really comes to mind, so I don’t think so.” Docm said simply, to which GenerikB nodded.
“What Doc said.”
“Really? Nothing?” Well viewers, now you know who to send your weirdest gift ideas to!” Guude laughed before he motioned to Nebris and Etho, “What about you guys? What have you gotten?”
“Well me and Etho would send the worst present we could think of or simply find to each other at some point so it’s safe to say I have gotten many weird presents…” Nebris replied as Etho simply chuckled and nodded in affirmation to what Nebris said. Light conversation began as some of the mindcrackers answered questions asked in chat meant for specific people rather than the group entirely. Once finished sorting through the gathered materials from the expedition they were doing before the Q&A, they lazed around on the grass or propped up against something while answering the rest of chats eager questions.
Zisteau sat up, catching the attention of the other mindcrackers"Hey, another group question from uhh...drelneair74? Sorry if i messed that up, they asked if any of us have tattoo's. In my case, no, ink wouldn't really work on me for obvious reasons." He shrugged motioning towards his skin "Don't think ink will stay in bones, otherwise i would obviously have the best one." A chorus of objections sprang up at the last sentence along with a few eye rolls before doc spoke up.
"Like the last question, i don't have any tattoo's for the same reason as Zisteau."
"Man you guys are so boring" Pause stated, about to add something before bdubs snorted,
"Do you even have tattoo's?" he asked grinning at him.
Pause looked affronted at the question, placing a hand over his heart in mock hurt. "Of course i do, just look!" He suddenly grinned, pulling off his shirt revealing multiple different markings and symbols.
"Are those...tribal tattoo's?" Kurt questioned, leaning forward to get a better view.
"Yup, cool right? What about the rest of you, though nothing will be these" Pause striked a pose, causing groans from half of the group and wolf whistles and laughter from the others. "And what about you bdubs-who-doubted-the-majestic-pause? got any?"
"Nothing as grand as you Pause" Bdubs rolled his eyes, statement dripping with sarcasm as he rolled up a sleeve to reveal a simple tattooed emerald on his shoulder. GenerikB nodded and rolled up his own sleeve revealing the same tattoo on the opposite shoulder. A chorus of oohs sounded as everyone pieced together the reference to the b team.
"So who's next?"
MC stood up shrugging off his coat before hesitating and also removing his shirt, revealing a detailed hylian shield on his lower back. "Not as elaborate as Pause but still pretty nice in my opinion." he shrugged before grabbing his shirt and orange coat back and proceeding to put back on his clothes, "Though, Millbee's tattoo is much better"
"Aw no MC why!" Millbee whined as the others started questioning him and pleading for him to show. "Okay well its not like you would be able to see it anyways, fluff!" he sent a haughty smirk to MC before MC flashed one back to him, causing the smile to fall.
"I have a picture" MC said simply, still smiling at him.
"You do not"
"Oh c'mon guy you gotta show us!"
"Yeah Millbee it can't be that bad!"
Millbee shook his head folding his arms, "well even if i did want to show it this stream wouldn't be pg anymore, which im sure Etho wouldn't approve of." Silence met his words before a few interested grins bloomed on some mindcrackers faces, though Etho was frowning slightly. Millbee shifted uneasily at this reaction before MC spoke up again,
"It’s not in that bad of a spot, still somewhat PG i guess-"
"So where is this tattoo and picture exactly?" Pause asked the question everyone was wondering, causing Millbee to finally shrug and motioning for MC to get the photo.
"In my defense, i was really, really drunk." The multicolored sheep muttered before MC presented the picture. Which cause a lot of laughter.
Alot of laughter.
"O-oh my god how much did you have to drink to get that?!" Pause fell over in laughter, other mindcrackers who stood to look at the picture were doubled over as well, staring in horror or amusement at the photo, or were looking at him in sympathy trying their best to hide their own giggles. Even Millbee ended up laughing, not ever really being upset at the 'secret' and shrugging it off.
The picture showed Millbee, where he still looked like he was in the tattoo parlor evidenced by the backround, with the word “bootylicious” in glittery hot pink fancy lettering on his butt.
"Hang on so, so when did you actually get this?" Guude asked, not quite recovering from his laughing fit.
"You remember that month where i 'dared' myself to wear pants?" Millbee replied, to which everyone stared at him after knowing the real reason why he did that.
"I was wondering why you kept wearing them after showing your hatred of them" Kurt pointed out as the other guys were shaking their head after not realizing why he would suddenly do that during that time.
"Oh uh hey chats mentioning that we all haven't answered yet, so who's next?" Etho questioned as Guude shrugged.
"Well i haven't went, though it’s probably not as great as Millbee's." Guude shook his head, still chuckling as he removed his shirt revealing his symbol on his back, a decently sized tattoo though simple.
"So even when you don't have your shirt on, you still kind of do?" Nebris chuckled.
"That's the idea!" Guude replied putting his shirt back on.
"Woah wait hang on guys, its been like 10 minutes and Nebris and Etho haven't made this a competition they need some kind of reward" Pause remarked before Nebris suddenly smirked at him.
"Oh I can make this a challenge, what do you say Etho? Got any tattoo's?" Nebris challenged as Etho stared back at him.
"Too late." Pause shrugged, propping himself up against a tree to watch.
"Indeed i do" Etho and nebris both pulled off their vests and undershirts, revealing elaborate tattoos on both males. Etho had what looked like a very complicated and elaborate redstone creeper contraption etched into his skin, no detail spared, even the redstone seemed to shimmer. His tattoo started at his upper shoulder and ending at his upper back. Nebris had the ender dragon curled around his body, the head ending at his chest, with the dragons wings and back on his back. The tail seemed to continue down further, past his pants and possibly curling around one of his legs. No detail was spared on the dragon either, every scale painstakingly created with a steady hand. The other mindcrackers whistled, impressed by both tattoo's nodding their approval.
"I think this one, for once, is a tie." MC pointed out to which Etho and Nebris grumbled their affirmations.
"So thats everyone right-no wait kurt did you go? I don’t think you did, do you have a tattoo?" Guude turned to him as Zisteau suddenly smiled mischievously.
"Saving the best for last of course!" Zisteau nudged Kurt which caused the other to nervously glance away.
"What do you mean? He has one?" Guude asked.
"It's always the quiet ones." Millbee added.
"C'mon show us!" Docm prompted, which caused the rest of the mindcrackers to nod and encourage him to show them. Kurt pulled off his coat before rolling up his sleeve fully, exposing a full arm tattoo that seemed to go past his shoulder. So many little details, starting at his wrist from the carefully inked words and borders, to the clouds and tiny yet thorough cityscape which morphed into the moon and stars and the dark night to reveal carefully intricate constellations, not sparing a star on his skin. That was only on his lower arm. The upper arm was decorated with intricate planets and moons, even the international space station was included. The sky ended with the sun, which was drawn almost cartoonish. A large yellow circle with a thin white border surrounding it, with black wisps coming out in even intervals. Inside the white border was words and symbols, none of which were in english, while in the yellow orb there was what looked to be hieroglyphics. The mindcrackers stared in silence and awe, astonishment on each of their faces.
"If this was a contest it's obvious who won then."
