[@persefida]

this is an infinite war were Grian or Mumbo wins from time to time

[@kromeriffic978]

A non-exhaustive list of things I love about this, in no particular order: - Mumbo talking to the camera like a reality show confessional - Perfect marriage of artstyle and Grian's comic timing - Mumbo winking in Grian's phone contacts - Grian shaking his fist at Mumbo's base is just such a good shot, as is the shovel appearing in the foreground when he decides to bury everything - Cuter style when Grian's imagining buying the goods for his own stock - Lovely dapper Mumbo in general - Different styles of wings/phones - Grian's red eyes of evil plotting - subtitles!! much appreciated, thank you - the fantasy sofa-vandalism scenes are SO GOOD - Grian's jazz hands and "shocked" face after he drops the lava - Grian's "mildly impressed" face is SENDING me, I love it so much - Mumbo pacing in little worried circles after he's been bamboozled - Mumbo falling over from the weight of the coal Honestly, every time I remember this video I come back to watch it several times in a row because it just makes me so happy
