Rancherduo Stories

Welcome to the Realms, a world I built from shards of Minecraft and Double Life lore and a lot of imagination for the sole purpose of housing our wonderful Ranchers. You're about to embark on a journey across time, but it will all be worth it when the souls of those bound to each other are finally united. I ask for your patience as we progress through the creation of the Realm, and the days that follow, until we ultimately reach the time when our Ranchers can settle down in a place called home. ~~ Enjoy the ride!

Jimmy is upset by the death of his beloved pet frog, but neither Scott nor his Bad Boys pay attention to that, too busy arguing. So, Jimmy leaves and runs into Tango, who offers to distract him. He makes it his personal mission to make Jimmy smile again. Aka, Jimmy hangs out with team T.I.E.S. and later returns to his Bad Boys.

Imagine a world where you're connected to another person. One special person is your soulmate. When you hurt, they hurt. When blood spills from their skin, petals bloom from yours. Grian is sure his soulmate is very clumsy. Every single day, its something new. A rose on his arm, baby's breath on his hand, tiny buttercups on his cheek... But Grian is also sore. For nearly five years of his teen life, he had dealt with constant vines and petals in his chest, throat, and nose. Even with them dying down a fair amount after he turned 18, he still wakes up heaving for his breath and some days he swears if he were to cut open his legs, he'd find petals under the skin. It hurts for him to walk on those days. He just never thought of how bad it must then be for his soulmate. If he was struggling to walk because of vines in his joints, how much pain must his soulmate then be in?

Tango stuck out a hand, his eyes shining with something dangerous. Something enticing. "You heard me, pretty boy. Imagine the headlines, 'World's hottest Sheriff teams up with dangerous bandit! Most powerful duo Mars has ever seen?'" --------- Jimmy solidarity is the sheriff of one of the sectors on Mars. Everything changes when a bandit decides to sneak into his town.

Beamville is the most ordinary place in the world. It's a small town with neat streets and paved roads. A little monochrome place of greys and straight edges. The people are ordinary too. Everyone knows everyone. Everyone was perfectly ordinary. Everyone except Jimmy Solidarity. Jimmy is a young man with exceptionally bad luck and a past he'd much rather leave behind. He lives in Beamsville trying to scrape by as a bit of an outcast, so different from everyone else. But then a new neighbour by the name of Tango Tek moves in next door and he and his friends flip Jimmy's life upside down. (Will sort front cover out soon, dw about it)

angst, fluff, smut, you name it, i'll write it! i only write in my free-time so there's no set update schedule! more information on the first page!

He thinks of beautiful gold shining in front of him, sunlight pushing through closed blinds, and honey so sweet it makes your teeth rot with a simple thought. It's smiling at him with a crazed look that he knows mirrors his own, high on adrenaline and in love with the person under his blade. He thinks of exploding for him, he thinks of killing for him, he thinks of dying for him. He thinks of a cooked meal getting cold, a missing soulmate, and invisible claws across his eyes. He thinks of 4 cows and warm words that follow, a beautiful song unique to them, solid arms, and a teary reunion. Or: Ranchers being gay in MCC and I blacked out. ---- Art Credit: @lunarcrownn

My gift to @Grumb0t for the 2023 MCYT Secret Santa event. More information in the Introduction chapter.

Jimmy works at the kindergarten, but one day goes to the game store to pick up something for his friend when he meets a cute cashier... he comments on his strange accent and ends up getting his number... -in the end he never could repay Joel for making him go to the store that day and changing his life. cover by applestruda on tumblr (i live for apples art go show them some love)

Tango closes his red eyes and sighs. He's probably just being paranoid because of the supernatural cases rising in the city just a few miles from his manor. He checks the grandfather clock once more, and the second it passes Jimmy's normal arrival time, he feels something in the air shift. Goosebumps form all over his arms, and a painful chill shoots down his spine. Danger, it screams, and that's enough for Tango to bolt out the door at record speed and follow the path he knows Jimmy takes to get to him every time. ---- Art Credit: @sillyeefers

Back on my bullshit with yet another au that no one asked for lmao This book will have more of a oneshot style but there will still be a general continuity here! You can always request as long as it's one of the ships mentioned in the intro chapter because you know, continuity

The avian closes his eyes for a moment, not saying anything. Of course, he would go to the same school and class and now share a living space with the guy he made his enemy. "I'm Tango! Of the Tek variety, I think we will have a great year together." "Yippee." Jimmy cheers unenthusiastically under his breath and hides his head in his arms on his desk-their shared desk. This is going to be the worst year of his life. ---- Art Credit: @shepscapades

Small story about jimmy and Grian, plenty of watcher stuff involved also some rancher duo

Tango got cocky. After months in a secret relationship with his boyfriend, Jay, he was pretty confident that his homophobic parents wouldn't find out. Well, given the fact that he was jarred awake at three in the morning and told he had a half hour to get out of the house due to a leaked photo, he was wrong. Luckily, he finds a group of teens in a similar situation who call themselves the Hermits. His new life seems like a paradise compared to his old one. But his new life is far from cupcakes and rainbows... Warning: There will be a lot of swearing and shipping in this book. There will be a proper cover soon.... shhhh

Mumscarian week, day 5: "Polyamory." Grian and Mumbo go to visit Jimmy and Scott, while Scar stays on Hermitcraft to bother Tango. Apparently all three of them have questions about polyamory and (accidentally) talk about it to the ones in such a relationship. Although they're unaware of the other's thoughts and feelings, they all decide to take the leap and confront each other. Aka, Jimmy has to deal with pesky Grian, Scott tricks Mumbo into talking and Tango really wishes Scar would just leave him be.
