the one issue about the hermit post system is that when you receive mail, the shulker box doesn't state who sent the mail, unless the sender wrote their name down on a piece of paper. because of this, hermits are able to frame other hermits by sending mail using another hermit's name, while the real sender is left anonymous.
while joel is away in japan for two weeks, it's a perfect time for pranking!.....etho
-on stream, cleo said that they are planning on filling joel's mailbox with love confessions from etho. for example, "this made me think of you" and "do you like me? check yes or no."
-someone left a "love joel x" sign at iskall's base. as a response, iskall is spamming joel's mailbox with love letters and flowers, saying "hi x" and "thinking about you x". the thing is... iskall didn't leave his name on any of the notes he sent.
alongside cleo's love confessions from etho, it is very likely that joel will think iskall's love letters are also from etho. it's boutta be the "joel xo" and etho statues all over again
anyways, the hermits are having too much fun with the mail system, which is great because pearl, etho, and tango worked really hard on it. all i know is that when joel comes back online, he's gonna have a big surprise waiting for him lol
"Joel is obsessed with Etho" "Etho is obsessed with Joel" Yes, but- I wanna talk about Iskall. This man bought SIXTY-FOUR. A FULL. STACK. Of Joel stamps. And sent him not one, not two, not three, but four packages, with messages that all end with "x", aka "kisses", to Joel the same episode he got his mailbox. He also sent a ghast tear named "My tear of happiness" with a piece of paper that said "For you x"
Pearls reaction to it too:
Transcript:
Pearl: "(Sixteen) -diamonds? I think that's correct."
Iskall: (Overlapped) "That is correct."
Iskall: "Yup"
Pearl: "I believe so, unless I'm completely wrong."
Iskall: "Here you go!"
Pearl: "Oh my gosh, look at that! Ohh, beautiful sixteen diamonds!"
Iskall: "Yeah!"
Pearl: "Did you just-? Hang on, did you just buy six- Oh my gosh, Iskall!"
Iskall: "Okay, well I'm off!"
Pearl: "Not gonna say anything, you enjoy your newfound obsession!"
"There's gonna be more [stamps] coming when more Hermits get added to the system. There's only five left, including Stress"
Pearl has clearly learned from the Grian Mumbo potato incident. This time she's making sure Iskall knows that his specialist little guy /gender neutral CANNOT receive mail yet no matter how badly he wants to send her some
