[waterfall8484]

It's a new month, and a new opportunity to discover your next favourite Hermitcraft fanwork!

Welcome to the first monthly rec post, a place for you to spread your love for that one fic, that special piece of art, or even that creator you just can't get enough of! To kickstart your inspiration there's a specific prompt every time, but you can rec whatever you want regardless. You can also use the prompt to make something new, and share it here.

This month's prompt is: Beginnings

For this one I'll share the fic that first got me into the Hermitcraft fandom (and, by extension, into tumblr): The Red Sun Never Sets by
ThaneZain. It's a bit heavy, so heed the warnings!

And if you like that one you may like the unofficial AU version featuring Evil Xisuma by residentevilxisuma, Make Me Hurt, Make Me Bleed. This one's even heavier, but has such an awesome emotional weight to it that it's worth the suffering - to me, at least. This one's not finished, so keep that in mind.

Another fic that really made an impact on me at the time is The Weight of Lies by BastardBin. It's not finished, but well worth the read anyway if you like hurt/comfort, angels and demons, and Grian/Mumbo.

My last rec is a fanvid not about the beginning of Ren and False's participation in the Minecraft Championships, but rather about the beginning of the period where the Hermits were seen as something more than joke participants - and also about one of the most enduring MCC teams ever, the MCC 9 Blue Bats. remember the name by genesis frog is on youtube and also on AO3 if you want to give them some well-deserved kudos.

Oh my gods The Weight of Lies changed my life and even though it isn't finished I will sing my praise of it till the end of time. It's strange to remember I was following it when it was still being updated regularly. I miss it.
I have not read the other ones but I'm curious!
Very cool animatic too! :D

I love TWOL, I'm still holding out for updates once in a while.
