Though to further indulge yall on this little au I have, here’s some thoughts and ideas:

Herobrine, in this MCSM au, is a entity that has been inhabiting the Minecraft world for as long as it had existed.

Herobrine has seen world after world after world come and go, and lives in a place in between, above, below, etc., the planes of reality (let’s say in game terms he inhabits corrupted codes/an undeveloped part of the MC world. Idk how codes n anything like that works so ill have to see)

In general Herobrine occupies in a space that is indescribable to anyone within the MC world

It contains secrets and untold truths that are forbidden and too much for the mind of MC characters to process and take in. They weren’t meant to process it, nor were they programmed to

Several key areas within the MC world act as gateways between the MC world and the Indescribable Territory (where Herobrine would inhabit)

One of them being sealed off by the very diamonds that Jesse and Petra just so happen assumed to be treasure (you think they’d learn from Romeo but ig not *shrug emoji*)

But anyways basically upon taking those diamonds from the gateway platform, Jesse practically (and unintentionally) opened a gate that allowed Herobrine access, thus allowing him to grapple on whatever he can to get out of there

And he just so happens to grapple onto our telltale hero Jesse

And because he made contact with Jesse, the longer he inhabits their body, the more Jesse would be forced to reckon with the things Herobrine had both witnessed and hold knowledge over

Which would further corrupt their mind
