We've not forgotten, it's just not a high priority right now! Enkay and I are both pretty busy, so we are just prioritizing the tumblr side of things (mainly because it gets by far the most traffic), and we'll update all of the ao3 when we can :)

YIPPEE MORE THEORIES :D also love the "can skizzpulse kiss yet" lmao

Hypno - You're welcome for the boob window ;) I thought he deserved it after looking at all the fanart. And yes, it is an interesting trio! There's a lot of unique combinations of people in our stories, so it's going to be very fun to write, and hopefully fun to read, too.

Also, not going to say if the journal is for Skizz or if he plans to share it with someone else, but like. Ask yourself: would Skizz talk/write to himself? (the answer is yes, he definitely would)

Are survivors a threat?? Would they be harder to kill??? Why would Skizz be thinking about all that is the real question... >:)

Martyn - I love MartRenDoc as a poly trio, my beloved (and yes, they totally would fight over Ren lol, despite him having two hands). Martyn being a 3 IS interesting, isn't it? I wonder why Skizz would've gotten that impression... (aka, I'm not going to give you any hints, but I LOVE that you noticed and want you to keep noticing things)

Gem - She's a warrior :D I mean, she's called Geminislay for a reason lol, not to mention the protective family (Girldad impulse is my favorite <3) Also just always keep in mind that Skizz's notes are just HIS thoughts and are more than capable of being wrong :)

Cub - Enkay and I actually discussed the lils having things like glasses and clothes and decided that they only get them if the Hermit created them, so the Assistants don't get glasses because Cub hasn't made them any lol (there are lils that have accessories though, as you'll see later)

Those last sentences are actually a very specific and important interaction in the Hermit's perception of Skizz, btw :)

SKULK CUBBBBBBB!! I really wanted convex, but I also adore any and all skulk creatures, so we just decided he gets both :D He and Scar have a very specific (and angsty) backstory to explain some of their notes (and it may or may not have something to do with their strange interaction Skizz described). That'll all be revealed in time

Pearl - that last line SHOULD scare you, and imo gives some of the most insight into Skizz's thoughts compared to the other secret notes. What exactly it means, I'm not telling (mainly because Enkay is obsessed with secrets even though I wanna spill them aaaaaall)

Lil creation is not something that happens naturally, I'll tell you that much. There's a reason that everyone on Hermitcraft has one

Joel - Him calling all of them Jeremy is my favorite, no comment on the abilities thing, and yes, Joel would commit crimes if Skizz tried to touch his tail.

B - IS he planning on escaping??? Why would he mention escape?????? ooOOOoOOOOooo the questions.......! Anyways, Enkay and I are still working on the exact map of Hermitcraft, but while there are lots of woods, it's not *completely* surrounded by forest. there is water, idk why you would mention him flying though, Skizz doesn't have wings! :)

There will be Jimmy and Skizz interactions!! There's a lot that needs to happen before then, but it's coming :D

Who hurt him indeed....

---

Thanks you so much for your rambles!!! I adore them sooooo much, the theories make me so happy :D I feed off of people's thoughts and ideas

Lils au galactic translations and theories 2!

Here I am again, I will be translating days 8-14 of @enkays-den and @cannibal-walleye’s silly stupid lils au which I love dearly…

So, as usual, spoilers ahead, I don’t know if I’m gonna go in as much detail as last week’s, but we shall seeeeee

AO3 Link: https://archiveofourown.org/series/4663420

This group of hermits shows a bunch more relationships and oddities that Skizz is learning about, and we learn some… things about Mr. Enigmatic Skizzlypants

Can skizzpulse kiss yet

Day 8: Hypno

VI (6) Intentionally quiet, not shy.

A survivor in general, considering he sails and judging by the stories I heard.

Experienced with combat.

Don’t underestimate anyone here.

-First of all, love Hypno’s boob window Walleye that’s great

-Anyways, Hypno, Joey, and Joel is definitely an interesting trio. Is Lizzie an ocean creature? Maybe she follows them as they sail who knows

-I bet like… $2 that Joey’s first interaction with Skizz involved him flirting… it’s Joey c’mon

-“Don’t underestimate anyone here” is Skittle saying that to himself or does he intend to give this to someone for information? I’m probably overthinking it he’s probably just reminding himself but I’M JUST THINKING

-Are survivors a threat to Skizz? Harder to kill if he’s thinking of that…

Day 9: Martyn

III (3) very arts focused, no mention of fighting, but he definitely has a strong build from something.

Has a strong spirit, very confident.

No special abilities as far as I can tell.

-By the way Skizz writes the definition of polyglot down it makes me think he didn’t know the word beforehand, which it is a weird word so I guess if someone doesn’t know it that makes sense but Sizzle is Sizzle and I feel like he’d know that word… then again, I think too much.

-Ren, Doc, and Martyn are so silly, Ren has two hands and Doc and Marty will kill eachother for him anyway

-Martyn with a 3 is weird—but also, Skizz hasn’t seen any combat stuff from him. He may not know much combat or he does, and it might surprise Skizz at some point.

-“He definitely has a strong build from something” what does this man do… maybe it’s all the running around stage/j

Maybe he has some weird lore idk Martyn always has that stuff

Day 10: Gem

VIII (8) More skilled than Impulse in combat but no size or resistance advantage.

Probably not experienced in true combat.

Fae magic can only be used if making a deal, has no effect on combat.

Should be careful when speaking to her. 

Can become small and easily sneak around.

Can probably fly.

Impulse would probably kill or die for her.

-Fae Gem! Even without her magic (as long as Skizz chooses his words carefully) she’s ranked pretty high!

-If Skizz wants to take out Gem, he has to deal with dad and sister uh ohhh

I love girldad pulse

-Also, by true combat Skizz means fighting for harm or death according to Enkay, so Skizz doesn’t think Gem would know much on actual killing

-Even with that she’s still an 8, maybe cuz she’s Imp’s daughter Skizz thinks that she is very formidable (she probably is)

Day 11: Cub

VI (6) Seems pacifist, reported to not leave his lab very much.

Nevertheless, intelligent and perceptive.

Unknown how skulk infection could augment or disable vex powers.

Him and Scar kept asking very specific questions and looking at each other when they thought I wasn’t looking. I can’t tell if it’s because of whatever they think my history is or they’re suspicious.

-I love the stupid assistant doodle, I thought it deserved glasses (Enkay was HATING on it (meanie)/silly but I think it looks even more like it’d piss off Skizz)

-For the last sentences, I think scar was just being snoopy and a little suspicious but cub was really trying to figure out what Skizz’s deal was

Or they were actually both on the same page but who knows with the Convex boys

-I love skulk Cub

-Skizzy Wizzy doesn’t know what a firework is presumably, so we need a scene of Skizz seeing a firework show maybe that would make him less suspicious (or more because oh my god they have multicolored fire shooters or smth)

-We’ll see if Skizz ever learns the skulk history, whether that’s Cub’s personal history with the stuff or the actual history of skulk (assuming Skizz again does not know what it is) idk-

Day 12: Pearl

VII (7) Skilled in combat in human form.

Wolf form very large, strong, and fast. Smelling and hearing.

Maybe enhanced senses in human form.

Impulse would probably kill or die for her.

I don’t think I could hurt either of them.

-So the last line… it scares me, because either Skizz likes the daughters and doesn’t want to hurt them, OR because Impulse will kill for them, he can’t touch them

I told this to Enkay and just got-

Evil

-From “I’m not sure what their exact ages are, since they have lils” I don’t know if this has been addressed and I’ve definitely not been told, do lils like… spawn at a certain age? Or do you just gain the ability to summon some at a certain age? Interesting… so if you don’t make it past like age 20 you can’t come back! Dead and gone loser LMAO

-I love the Poppyseed doodle, since these notes are in like ink or pencil or something I wonder if Enkay just doesn’t erase any mistakes, makes it more authentic Skizzy that way

Day 13: Joel

VII (7) Genuinely confident in his abilities.

Strong build, plus sailing requires being good at a lot of different things.

No visible powers, but tanukis are known for having special abilities of any kind.

-As an avid Joel fan (even though I do not talk about him ever) I love the singular Jeremy he would definitely do that

They look like a Jeremy anyway

-I wonder if Joel does have any powers, or if he is just good at combat enough to compensate for that. But Skizz does say that tanukis can have special abilities—whatever they are—so we shall see

-Swizzle I think if you ever touched Joel’s tail he would just try to murder you LOL

Day 14: B

VII (7) Non combatant, usually only in or near the forest and easy to keep an eye on, but still great for spying.

Don’t think the cookie thing was a poisoning attempt, they already knew my allergies by then.

How many creaklings are in this area?

Sprites are very small, again a good spy.

Don’t escape through the woods.

-Skizz planning on escaping at some point? Or is it if he needs to escape, don’t go through the woods? I don’t know the map of the hermit settlement but I feel like there would be woods all around. Probably if skizz needed to escape, his best bet would be the water or even flying out.

But he doesn’t need to escappeeeee idiot…

-I hope there’s a chapter in the fic with lots of Jimmy Skizz interactions cuz he keeps talking about him and I love Jimmy and Skizz

-B’s lils are so cuteeee stupid spider

-Skizz is always gonna be edge around the forests- maybe he’ll try to talk to B? I hope so I love them

-Dude why would the cookie be a poisoning attempt who hurt you Skizzy

Andddd that’s it-

Uhhhhhhhh oh my gosh I RAMBLED sorry guys that’s a lot- uhhhhhhh hopefully I’m not boring…

Skizz what is UP with you

ANYWAYS hope you enjoyed! I’m excited and scared for these next few ones…

Cya in 7 days!

I am going to EXPLODE THEM WITH MY MIND

Zedaph: We are sitting [in the wrong order] for ZITS

Tango: should have reorganized us

Impulse: yeah I thought about that, switching you two. But then y'know (impulse gives skizz a little fond touch) Imp and Skizz would be split up, we can't have that.

Skizz: we can't, this is the way it's always been

Source: Imp And Skizz Podcast: ZITS Reunion!

Day 16: Scar

And, the full photo, since Cub's already out!

Day 15: Jevin

Sorry it's later than normal!! forgot to schedule the post. as always: All journal posts, @hermitadaymay fundraiser post, and go follow @enkays-den for all the hard work they do!! + click to see our fic ao3

hiii i was wondering if you’re still updating This Side of the Screen and the skizzpulse band au? sorry if this comes across as annoying just wanted to know 😓

i just binged the all of whats out rn of TSotS and its amazing i am hooked <33

It's not annoying, that's a fair question! I do plan to continue both of them, it's just a combination of things that have been stopping me :( A big reason I haven't been working on those is that I've been focused on my lils au with Enkay for Hermit a Day May, and we've been working on that for well over a month. The other thing is that I'm just generally struggling to find consistent motivation and time to actually work on it, but that doesn't mean I've abandoned the projects entirely!! I'm about halfway through the next chapter of TSotS, but it's slow going. Idk how long it'll take, just know I'm working on it :P

do you think you'd ever release the galactic font for download? I actually really love it, enkay did a great job making a handwriting version of galactic. it's been really fun reading the extra notes, I've finally managed to get to the point where I don't need to have the key on hand anymore! 🥳

I'm not against it, but I have no idea how that would work, and Enkay says he doesn't want to host something on his Google drive, so if anyone has other ideas, let me know! Also, good job learning to translate!! And thank you for taking the time to translate and read the notes :) I'm glad people are getting invested :D

hmmm. I was torn on whether that "IX" at the beginning of impulse's galactic notes was a typo of "is" or if it was deliberate, and now seeing that grian's and tango's both start with "V" I'm certain it's deliberate. roman numerals perhaps? but why would grian and tango have an earlier number than impulse when skizz met impulse first? and the same number to boot...

my initial theory (probably should wait for more of these to drop first, but I'm prepared to be wrong lol) is that skizz is assigning each hermit a threat level, since impulse had a lot of notes about him being a good fighter with a number of possible weapons, while grian's and tango's notes both imply lower offensive capabilities (at least from what information it seems skizz has been able to gather at the point he wrote them).

very cool stuff! also learning galactic from reading these lol. using the alphabet chart less and less!

Sorry it took so long to get to this! But I love the theories, and no, it wasn't a typo :) (I would say there have been no typos, but *cough cough* Enkay)

Also yippeeeee, learning galactic! I also first learned it reading someone's fic, so it's fun to pass on the tradition lol

Day 14: BigB :D

Once again, it's kinda not really part of the hadm stuff, but today is collabs, so I guess if you count the life series, B is allowed? Idk, and frankly, idc. I do what I want.

there you go! idk what to say in these things anymore. He's a fluffy guy, classic Joel

Day 12: Pearly Pop!!

The third and final member of the soup group! And as such, I can finally release the full photo from Skizz's journal :D

This is the first drawing I did for this challenge, so I'd redo a few things in hindsight, having finished many since then, but I still love it! lmk what you guys think, and, as always: All journal posts, @hermitadaymay fundraiser post, and go follow @enkays-den for all the hard work they do!! + click to see our fic ao3

Day 11: Cubfan!!

Couldn't decide if we liked vex or warden Cub better, so he's both! You're welcome. Tbh he has one of my favorite backstories, I'm very hyped for him and Scar :))

God and Impulse's favorite princess. You get it

As always: All journal posts, @hermitadaymay fundraiser post, and go follow @enkays-den for all the hard work they do!!

Thank you, @/Enkay Designs for the support on kofi !

Day 9 (kinda): Martyn!

Like we said before, we're doing life series members as well as normal hermits in our au! Instead of outfit swap, we have Martyn today for Hermit a Day May! Also notable in this fic is that he's in a poly relationship with Ren and Doc <3 (More on that in our future posts)

As always: All journal posts, @hermitadaymay fundraiser post, and go follow @enkays-den for all the hard work they do!!

AAAAAH I'M SO EXCITED TO READ THISSSSSSSS

ok first impressions, I love the distinctions you made between galactic and english writing and why it exists, as well as notes on the purpose of the journal. I'm so happy you're thinking so deeply about all this!!! "The more silly comments are in English, so Skizz knows that if someone does get ahold of the book that they’ll be reading the English portions" is such a great piece of analysis. (Also right off the bat, Skizz seems VERY lonely/paranoid from your descriptions lol)

Impulse - great ideas on why Skizz wrote that, not gonna confirm or deny bcuz it's spoilers, but great theories...

Tango - no particular thoughts, but you analyzing Skizz's analysis is making me happy wiggle in my seat :P

False - "WHAT DID IMPULSE DO TO GET A 9 WITH THE SWORDFIGHTING 4 ARMS LADY??" evil cackling >:))))) Also love that you're comparing ratings between the hermits and why Skizz might've given those

Mumbo - also love that you're thinking about the hermits as a community and not just them as individuals with the redstone thoughts + noting that Skizz comes from a very different place from Hermitcraft. Also interesting to me that you notice Skizz's familiarity with shulkers (side note: we have the most interesting shulker lore in this that will probably never be discussed, but still makes me happy)

Thank you so so much for your thoughts! I eat them up like they're the most scrumptious dessert :3

Also: All journal posts, if anyone's interested

Have good day <3

Galactic translations and theories of lils au

Hi! I will be translating and theorizing @enkays-den and @cannibal-walleye’s lils au posts at the end of every 7 days :)

AO3 Link: https://archiveofourown.org/series/4663420

So, let’s start for the first 1-7 days! 

I will also say that I am a beta reader for this au, am in a gc with the two of them, and I don’t know if I know information that the public isn’t supposed to know… so if you see this and I say something and enkay/walleye don’t shoot me down before it’s too late uhhhh congrats!

I entered this au wanting Skizzpulse kissing and here I am… they hate eachother/silly

This is also my first time ever making a tumblr thread like this, so if it’s messy I’m sorry :,(

Spoilers if you want to translate days 1-7 on your own

I’ll do a summary here on what I think these journal pages are exactly

The general thought of these galactic messages are that Skizz is analyzing how much the hermits are threats to him, depending on their abilities, and he is most likely preparing if he needs to ever fight them. Knowing how they are and their strengths and weaknesses are probably the only way he can beat them if he has to.

It’s a journal but it’s also maybe a strategy guide, so Skizz knows as much as he possibly can about each hermit.

He intends for only himself to be reading it, so hopefully no one gets ahold of his journal and knows galactic, maybe it’s a prominent language from where he is from.

The more silly comments are in English, so Skizz knows that if someone does get ahold of the book that they’ll be reading the English portions

Skizz’s true thoughts/analysis is in galactic though.

Skizz is on high alert, no one is truly a friend in his mind, no matter how nice they seem.

Day 1: Impulse

IX (9) very tall, can fly, extremely heat resistant

Can shed disguise instantly.

Armourer 

Axe and sword proficiency

Taught daughters how to fight.

In human form he is unarmoured could have demonic traits without the form.

Tail and talons and horns human form.

He can hurt me.

-The thing that prompts “He can hurt me” is probably on the way back to the hermit settlement thing imp and skizz run in to something/someone and they aren’t friendly, impulse kicks their ass

Alternatively, Skizz is generally scared of Imp cuz of what he’s learned of him so far

Impulse could have some talent that he shows off at some point that scares Skizz

This is just guessing tho idk-

-From these first days I’m PRETTY sure the first letters are Roman numerals for the threat/strength level of the hermit, so there will be numbers next to them.

Day 2: Grian

V (5) can fly, seems to be very agile in the air.

Others complain that he starts wars, presumably not real ones, but seems to be a menace for sure.

Likely a decent fighter.

Sneaky, impulsive

Day 3: Tango

V (5) Heat resistant, not to the extent of Impulse.

Very smart, but does not seem like a strategist.

Not very confrontational.

Despite his attitude, seems unlikely to initiate combat.

-The fact that Skizz says “strategist” instead of like “strategic person” makes me think that Skizz is grouping all the hermits together like they’re an army.

Ex: strategist tango, fighter false, etc

-“Unlikely to initiate combat” also adds to this

Day 4: Jimmy

III (3) Doesn’t seem like a fighter, no significant muscle definition, all bark no bite.

Taller than average, can fly.

Learning the ropes, so he’s not experienced.

Very loud voice, could easily warn others if he needed help.

Day 5: False

IX (9) Twice the arms, twice the danger.

Extremely skilled with weapons and fighting.

May have teleporting and night vision depending on how any end abilities she has. Not that she would tell me if she did.

Uses elytra but is probably very good at flying from all the tests.

X openly said she’s a good fighter. Is this a warning?

-Poor Skizz is realllyyyy on edge, I bet X was just very proud of False and just told Skizz that just to do it. But Skizz thinks he has an ulterior motive-

-The fact that both Impulse (who what we’ve seen so far of him in the actual fic, seems less than a 9) and False (who has 4 arms and amazing fighting skills) are both 9, what makes a 10?

-WHAT DID IMPULSE DO TO GET A 9 WITH THE SWORDFIGHTING 4 ARMS LADY??

Day 6: Mumbo

V (5) depends on phantom traits but even then they’re not that powerful.

Don’t sleep around him.

Very smart but not a fighter.

Smarts seem more technical than strategic.

His flight ability has no physical limitations like the elytras or winged hermits. 

I wonder if he can tire out.

-This is a note from the whole page, Skizz comes from somewhere (world? universe?) that doesn’t have redstone. Either the hermits are rich, their land is rich, or Skizz’s old world specifically just didn’t have it.

Skizz’s old world had shulker boxes but not redstone, though maybe getting shulker boxes/pouches are easier in the lils universe

-Also, the scribbled out part was confirmed by Enkay to be Skizz crossing out sprites, and

I find it cute that Skizz is starting to use their phrasings :D

I may see if I can timeline it like which was the first entry which was the last and which are kinda in the middle. But who Skizz meets in what order could already be answered in future lils chapters, no clue, and it does seem like a lot of work but I have it noted down here sooooo maybe.

Day 7: Bdubs

IV (4) literally not a worry at night.

Aggressive personality but doesn’t seem like a fighter.

Don’t know if his abilities are different to a classic tree dryad.

His sprites like to spy.

-Bdubs’s lils are the biggest threat of Bdubs LOL

-On a less angsty note, love the thought of the army of impys and clocks following skizz

And that is all!

This is an amazing series and I love talking to Walleye and Enkay about it bec it’s loreful, angsty, and silly at the same time very cool stuff :)

See you in the next 7 days :D

Please tell me you'll be posting the translations for the galactic? Or that someone in the tags will, bc it makes my head hurt to try but I desperately want to know

We will, but only after all the journal pages are released, on our ao3! If you stick around, your patience will be rewarded. Until then, the galactic is a secret for the people willing to translate it >:)

For the brave (assuming you can distinguish between this and Enkay's handwriting lol):

Edit: some people have posted and reblogged with translations, if you want to look for them :-) You can use the skizz's journal tag on this post to search

Day 8: Hypno

I forgot to schedule this before going to bed, shhhh don't tell anyone... Also, for people who have sent asks, Enkay and I are working on answering them!! It's just been a little busy :P Hope you enjoy Skizz's entry for today :D

As always: All journal posts, @hermitadaymay fundraiser post, and go follow @enkays-den for all the hard work they do!!

Day 7: BDoubleO !!

The moss man himself! I love his stupid lil guy, he looks just like a tiny glare <3
