wanderer is the type to have sped ran minecraft in his free time for the fun of it. probably holds top ten globally for fastest runs, and yes, he will be teasing you every time you do something 'stupid' (aka something he would never do. i know it's unfair because he literally no-lifes the fucking game).
there was a time where he was busy mining for diamonds while you built your little house together on a hill, you fell down too hard because you had forgotten to wear the feather falling boots he gave you earlier. he just sighs while you finish your little screaming at the screen.
"wait- no you said if i wore the boots i wouldn't take damage when falling!" you have your head in your hands, mic still over your mouth as you whip back up to sprint to your things... thank god he added the gravestone mod. "did you... i don't know, forget to wear them?"
"just say you hate me." you mutter, hearing his eyebrow raise within the tone of his voice, wanderer replies almost immediately: "hey! i did my job and gave you the enchanted netherite boots I GOT YOU."
he scolds you a lot when playing. talking about some "don't do that you're gonna die" "don't- no you don't craft sticks like that" "wait, babe, no. you can't have the iron golem as a pet" just for him to do most of the things for you.
he's also the kind to spawn withers nearby to defeat them while you build. so while you decide what kind of wood you want to be using, he's got his third nether star.
also will begrudgingly get you the wood you want from whatever biome it may be. definitely secretly adds animal mods and gets you fennec foxes. and i mean a lot of them. swears he doesn't know where they come from.
probably defeated the ender dragon while you were asleep so he could freely explore end cities to get you shulkers. why? well you're always complaining about how many chests you make to store your wood/building blocks, so he might as well make it easier for you.
terrible at building btw.
cyno is not really as tryhard as wanderer is, but he knows what he's doing at least. has played the game for at least a hundred or more hours. he's played on servers with the 4ggravate gang i'm assuming, but he takes the time to teach you.
does stupid fucking jokes though. that's not an exception when playing minecraft. he'll genuinely be saying what does the fox say when you bring two of them home.
speaking of homes, he's a pretty good builder i'd say. half the hours he has on minecraft is just building structures and stuff. not that he doesn't pvp though, he just prefers building, and it only increases his preference when he gets to do that with you.
one time you were trying to bring a strider home to add to your collection of pets around the little farm of your base. you already had a fox, a mushroom cow, dogs, cats, fish, nautiluses, horses, a red panda, okay uh... let's just say you have a lot.
so after finally getting a bucket of lava, you made a fenced cage and place the strider inside, naming him mushrooms. you only left to go to the bathroom when it started to rain in-game.
if you didn't know, striders die to rain.
so when you came back and screamed in agony, cyno couldn't tell what was wrong until he saw the fences with a one-block deep lava pool of nothing. good thing your boyfriend is a nice man and gets you a new one while you mourn.
rip mushrooms. that's the actual name of the strider me and friends tried to tame.
xiao is THE pvp player amongst all the people in this list and takes pride in it (silently). yeah he just casually is globally ranked number three when it comes to speedruns and has pvp'ed streamers for money. always comes out on top in tournaments. he loves them but has never streamed consistently.
doesn't know too much about building but is more than happy to learn with you. definitely tries out new mods with you too, had never tried out biome'o plenty until you suggested it. you thought the magic biome there had an adorable shade so you had insisted on playing with him.
he's always welcome to trying but if there's one thing xiao doesn't like, it's mods. deadass. thinks they nerf the gameplay by adding easier things.
changes his mind when you introduce him to the mod that breaks trees when you only mine one block though. i know to me that was life-changing.
is the type to let you freely explore the land you guys settle on while he fights all the mobs. also asks for hard mode because 'normal is too boring'.
enchants EVERYTHING for you and gives you matching netherite trims on your armor. flexes it on twitter like: 'p.s. we yes we are better than you'
has three cats with you named mofu, miffy, and bolt respectively.
aether is the best builder out of everyone here. sorry not sorry. he's not too consumed with being the best pvp-er out there, or the fastest speedrunner, but he's most known for his crazy-ass detailed builds. and i mean DETAILED DETAILED. as in people look at his builds and take inspiration for their own servers. stairs and trap doors are his best friend.
has recreated your shared house on minecraft, cats and everything. and quite funnily, mods are his best friend too, loves mods and definitely encourages you to try them out. especially the furniture mods, and the baking mods. literally top mods of all time by the way (his words not mine).
recreates any building you want as long as you show interest in. jokingly you told him to recreate the empire state building and he did. you have also told him to try and recreate tiktoks with minecraft contraptions that many youtubers have admitted were hard.
he also really likes to make those videos about easy farms for items like sugarcane, or mobs. same thing with redstone, is so consumed by it it's crazy. literally only mines for redstone. diamonds are just a bonus to him, he already has netherite anyway. it's fine. he doesn't need them.
a lot of his gifts (ever since introducing you to minecraft) have been through minecraft/your minecraft world with him to surprise you.
kinich... hmm, is it wrong to assume he's the kind to code custom mods for you? i think he would. pretty knowledegable with said code and if you've been on my blog before... p1xelking is a pretty popular streamer who has revealed to the world that he has a beautiful fiancee, aka you. and now with your relationship being pretty public,
he posts often about your little world with him. and yes, he is pretty good at the game but really he just wants to show the world who he's spending the rest of his life with.
despite being known for an fps player, radiant #44 in north american servers, and an ex csgo pro player for an e-sports org called NTLN, he casually plays games like minecraft with you nowadays, still keeping most of his life private.
mualani pops in on your world sometimes along with your other friends (i.e. tia mavuika, kachina, xilonen, and others) who always post about how cute the little builds you both collab on are.
one experience you will always find yourself laughing at though was when you were trying to find diamonds, and since you were a little busy talking to kinich, you hadn't heard the lava below the diamond block you were mining...
yes you fell, and yes kinich laughed.
you did get better stuff after but you won't forget the stacks, and stacks, and STACKS of melons you brought with you on the trip of mining...
