Work Text:
The sound of piano starts playing and with a black screen on display with texts saying "Be ready in a second." along with the Twitch chat flooding in with a wave of greetings and emotes. After minutes of waiting, the music's volume lowers when the solid black fades to a facecam of Craig fixing his hair while putting aside a water bottle.
"Hi chat, it's been like, so long the last time I've been live. What's up?" Craig greets his enthusiastic viewers with his normal, monotone voice. He proceeded to read a few donations out loud and interacted with them before he continued on, "Sunset_Fever, thank you for the 10 gifted sub. 'A second stream within a week? I hope you aren't dying lol' haha, very funny. Look, I just have more free time than usual and we're doing a little something today."
Craig minimized his webcam and showed his screen with the opening menu of Minecraft, "Okay, so for those who did not see my Instagram story, you might be wondering; 'a minecraft chill stream? again?' you are dead fucking wrong! It's not just a chill stream because today I'm gonna be playing with Tweek. The lovely guy, who made the wonderful music that we're currently listening to, is joining us today." He clicked the multiplayer option and scrolled to find the server Craig and those guys frequently play on.
Feldspar joined the game
Tweek_: o/
Craig smiles at that, as he sends his own "o/." His avatar turns around and starts walking off a mine, assuming that he'd been off gathering resources last time he was on. Craig checks who else was on the server: it was only the two of them.
"By the way, I kid you not, chat. This dude is a fucking god at building. Apparently, he had always been into legos since he was a kid? Tweek mentioned that during one of our conversations, that's when I asked him if he ever played Minecraft. I got him on the server then Token gave him most, if not all, of his current armor and tools. I know, a rich ass even in game."
Craig continues to find his way out as he talks to his viewers, making a few stops to fight off monsters, "We gave him a tour for a bit but then Tweek ran off and went to find materials for his first build in the server, which is his cottagecare house. He said that it might be done by now, so we'll be visiting in just a second after I get back up there."
Craig interacted with his donos during his way out before he finally got back up from underground. He started typing on the Minecraft chat.
Feldspar: where r u :/
Tweek_: at clydes base
Tweek_: lets meet at my house
Tweek_: be there in a min!
Feldspar: omw
Feldspar: join vc2 btw
He smiles as soon as he heard the sound on Discord, notifying Craig that Tweek has joined the call, "Hey, man. What the hell were you doing at Clyde's base?"
"Oh, hey! I'm trying to find the, ngh, spore blossom that he promised me last time. I'll be on my way after I get it."
"Nah, he probably lied. I'll make a little detour to my place, just start going on your way to your house." Craig said as he turned to the way to his own base.
"How are you sure?" Tweek responded in a light teasing tone, "Don't tell me you stole it from Clyde so you can get my pickaxe." He laughs softly.
"Fuck off, man." Craig laughed back at the blonde as he arrived at his base and started rummaging through his chests, "Oh yeah, I'm live right now. Just so you know."
Tweek's laugh was halted by a gasp, "CRAIG, WHAT THE FUCK! Oh god, gah! I'm so sorry, hey Craig's chat! I hope you're doing well! Ngh, oh Jesus, I thought you said you were going live tomorrow?!"
"Chat's saying they're all doing great. Okay, got the flower, I'm on my way."
"Don't just ignore the fact that you, gah, lied about when you were doing your stream! Ngh, I had a whole greeting prepared for your viewers!"
Craig paused for a minute with a goofy smile on his face, "No way. There's no fucking way you did that."
"Gah! Yes, I did! But you ruined my chance on giving, dare I say, thousands of people watching this a good first impression! Hng!"
"No, I didn't." He continued sprinting when he spotted their rendezvous, "They love you, right chat?"
"Jesus Christ. Craig, I will beat your ass."
"Try me, asshole." He said as he sneaked up to Tweek and starts hitting him with the spore blossom.
"OH MY GOD, STOP!" Tweek hits him back but with an iron pickaxe to back Craig off, "You are, argh, such a dick!"
Craig laughs out loud as he drops a stack of the item then heals himself with steak, "Okay, I'm sorry. Here's the flowers you oh so desired."
Tweek took the spore blossoms in his inventory with a scoff, "Fine, I'll forgive you just this once." He entered his house and exited a different door, leading to a gazebo.
Craig smirks and turns to his camera, "Oh, chat, I just remembered. This guy, right here, wanted a single spore blossom in exchange for a netherite pickaxe."
In an instant the chat was flooded with a wave of people voicing their disbeliefs. Most of them were choruses of 'WHAT's and emotes.
"Oh my god, what are they saying?" Tweek asked as he placed the flower at the center of the ceiling.
"Well, kevin849_ said 'why the fuck would you trade anything for a spore blossom?' exactly what I said when he struck a deal with fucking Clyde."
"Because, ngh, I was scared to get one myself!"
"How can you be scared of Minecraft, man?"
"Okay, try exploring the new caves with my anxiety and answer that question!"
Craig threw back his head as he laughed out loud, "Alright, geez, I was just messing with you! You didn't have to pull the anxiety card on me, Sir I've-Only-Played-Minecraft-In-Creative-Mode-Since-Day-One."
Tweek hits him again with an axe, "I don't want to talk to you anymore." He stated before going back to his house.
"No- wait- come back, Tweek! You're supposed to accompany me throughout my stream!" Craig sprints after him.
"Not until you stop being a dick, I just might!"
"Come on, please? Chat's saying 'cute build', by the way."
"Aw, thanks! You're so nice chat! Don't be fooled though, I got it on YouTube. I've made at least one of that house on every server that I've been in but with a little twist every update."
"Seriously? So you just had it memorized when you went to go get materials?"
"Yeah, I wanted to feel at home! Also because I'm kind of attached to the build itself. Ngh." Tweek giggled.
"It's cute." Craig muttered under his breath. He went ahead and checked some of his donations, "'You should hire Tweek to rebuild your base' okay, fuck you. My base is perfect as it is."
"Craig, I'm sorry, but I've seen it. It's literally just a big fucking square."
"Exactly." He chuckles as Tweek let's out a laugh at that, "Okay, so, my plan today was just go get more materials. Not to be an asshole or anything, but Tweek; can I ask you to come explore the caves and mine some diamonds with me?"
