You guess seven spacebar presses. It logs you in first try. Smartass OS, dumbass password.

Or: you are Avery. You are about to make a series of mistakes. The worst part of it all is easily that you’ve somehow made it completely impossible to screw things up for yourself ever again.
And that’s saying a lot, because you’ve been a fuckup on purpose for a very long time.

Hey, so, if Eight's potentially fully meta-aware, including the medium he's in, does that mean he'd know if he wasn't in a Youtube video? Including, hypothetically, being in a fanfiction?
Bear with me. I'm gonna try something weird and see if it works. (Which, obviously it does, otherwise there wouldn't be much of a story.)

The Construction of the Eighth Wall: Layered Realities in MCYT Storytelling by iamsolarflare
Fandoms: MCYT (Minecraft YouTube), Minecraft (Video Game), kww collab, 100 Days Multiverse
29 Dec 2025

Summary
An academic essay on the concept of layered "fourth walls" as a part of the nature of MCYT, primarily focusing on three case studies of interesting interactions with this metanarrative aspect of the medium -- the Librarian's From The Fog series, Kenadian's Wifies Debunk, and Legundo's 100 Days Multiverse.
Originally written as part of the MCYT Meta Zine -- I highly recommend checking out the zine in its original form as well, as it comes with some really stunning illustrations!

Summary
Ten jailers, nine fights, nine lessons learned. There is one person the Stranger never did end up against -- “I am no fighter like you,” the Voice had said, and that was probably true.
But, if they had to guess, he might have something important to teach them anyway.

Summary
Hello again, friend of a friend...
--
Legundo's involuntary trip through the multiverse has landed him in all sorts of predicaments, worlds with hidden dangers or unobvious threats. One thing has been constant, though - he has always been alone, with the exception of the ghosts of his past that h(a)unt him.Technically, that hasn't changed. It's just gotten infinitely more obvious and infinitely less easy to negotiate with. With Legundo's usual ever-present time limit bearing down on both him and this new unknown, things seem set to unravel... whether or not anyone wants them to.

Summary
A sort of suspense/supernatural AU (can we call this New Weird? kind of) based on the Area 77 arc during Season 6 of Hermitcraft. There are aliens, there's time travel, there's a whole lot of fog, and of course there's funky formatting!

Summary
He closes the laptop, leaving his room dark.
Now that it's over, the panic is draining away from him as if it was never there at all. What replaces it is a leaden emptiness that climbs into his limbs and settles in his chest. There is no more terror, no more grief, no more hope.
There's just him, and he is full of golden light.

i'm a sucker for analyzing the irl implications of minecraft ARGs and i'm also a sucker for some funky eldritch prose. this hits the nail on the head for both. it's very good!

Summary
It takes until Kenadian logs off to really register how late it is.
When Wato had told him that Wifies would log on at nine o'clock, he hadn't thought anything of it. But now it's the wee hours of the morning, Kenadian's been staring at his monitor for several hours, and he's exhausted.
The multiplayer menu blinks at him as he pushes away from his desk and stretches his legs for the first time since his Wifies alarm went off. The dulcet tones of "Wet Hands" fill the quiet air.
"Fuck," he mutters. He stands and scrubs at his eyes. The bedroom squishes around in the air, like a whole place is a cube of jello being gently compressed. "That was… something else."
(The events of the collab took place inside a video game, which raises... a lot of philosophical questions and a lot of scientific ones. Ken and Clonefies talk in the aftermath.)

new gender just dropped and it's triangles.
in all seriousness though, this fic OWNS. 10/10 horror, the type of thing that makes me want to stare at a wall for a while. it's good, and i like it.

Summary
A half step is all is takes — one second Xb is in the shade of the market stalls, the next he’s slipping through dimensions, Hypno close behind him.
Eyes are everywhere. Reality is hidden behind the void. And something quiet stalks their steps, something that cannot die.
But hey — they’re Horse Head Farms! And surely, they can survive this.
