Work Text:
“Jimmy how do you have so many shards?” Scar asked, holding onto the mane of his horse gently.
“I’m just the best minecrafter obviously,” Jimmy smirked and got a laugh from mumbo.
After mumbo ended his laughing fit by the enchantment table, he got up and went over to Jimmy and observed his work. The cod boy was trying to make yet another telescope for scar, the telescope he had before was know owned by mumbo in return for a diamond. Now it was jimmy who had to make scars new telescope so that they all had one, which was fine he had plenty shards to spare and could always get more; its just that make them had gotten a bit tedious and boring.
“Jimmy you need two copper not one” mumbo noted and was swatted away by jimmy telling him that he knew.
Scar let out a wheeze, “best minecrafter? As if jimmy.” The other let out a scoff, “be careful scar, i have the power of the group. You could just not get a telescope”
With that, the horse owner shut up and let jimmy work. It was nearing daytime and by the time jimmy was done, the sun was about to rise.
Scar gave a thanks to jimmy for giving him the final telescope. It was silent for a moment before Martin let out a child-like screech. He fell backwards slightly and rubbed his eyes.
“You alright mate?” Jimmy half laughed. Martin nodded “I didn’t realise the sun was up, it got in my eyes that’s all.” He started blinking rapidly to get the pain out of his eyes.
Jimmy full on laughed “yeah us brits don’t really get the sun do we? It’s bloody bright innit.”
“I’m learning more and more about your culture everyday” scar stated and helped Martin up.
It was quite for a moment more. Then they all looked at eachover through their spyglass and let out a somewhat grunt. Before ultimately falling to the ground in laughter. They stayed like that for a while, and then scar had to go to do whatever he needed to do.
After about like an hour or so, they three left had started packing up to leave when a certain red sweatered man came along.
“Grain!” Mumbo noticed him first, pulling him into a hug. After the semi-normal greetings, Martin showed grian their new toys. Of course they showed it off by crouching and saying ‘ahar’ in a British accent and obviously grian wanted to be apart of that.
“Well grian, you could join but I need some copper to make you a spyglass, i spent my last bits on scars one and then he left.” Jimmy explained. They quickly solved the problem when impulse joined in and passed the cod his copper.
Now there were six members of whatever they were called.
Jimmy, scar, mumbo, Martin, grian and impulse. A fine set of people.
After about 15 minutes of messing around, mumbo spoke up.
“Is this the long eye lads now then?”
Immediately jimmy and grian’s eyes lit up. That’s it, that’s their new name.
The five boys set off soon after, heading towards grians ‘south tower where I sulk’. Jimmy made the comment “yeah see British people do sulk a lot” which confused grian and impulse but set the other three bursting with laughter.
They reached the tower at about night time, so Martin says. Well done Martin, you can see the moon, well done 👏.
Grian had said about five towers for him and the others to live in, and that they could communicate through signs and telescopes. Plainly, mumbo had already started a redstone contraption for ‘emergencies’ but they had fun none the less.
It was about 2 in the morning (impulse specified, not martin) when they had all settled down and got ready for bed. They had planned out what they were going to do in the morning. They ended the day with looking through their spy glasses and whispering “ahar” before falling to sleep.
