MINECRAFT: REACT MODE
What time is it?
React Time!
Here's your host, ShiningHopeBeast!
Hey everyone! It's me, Shining! And welcome to our brand new show: Minecraft: React Mode! The name of the game is simple- it's exactly what you think it is! On this show, we'll be taking a character, or characters, from Minecraft Story Mode and letting them react to something. Anything! It could be a person, a place, an item, a concept- you name it, they'll react to it!
How will we decide what our favorite characters will react to, you ask? Well, by you, of course! Submit something you want to be the object of the react, and each week we will pick one lucky person's review for our next react! Also, there will be a poll up on which character(s) should be in the react, so make sure to go and vote each week!
This week, since this is our first episode, yours truly has picked out who is reacting and what they are reacting to.
Oh, and by the way, this is the real world. We're not in Minecraft. I repeat: we are NOT in Minecraft. So when any of our guest stars are brought here, they no longer have Minecraft bodies. However, we can move the show to the Minecraft world occasionally. Also, they have no idea that they will be on the show- it'll be a surprise!
So without further ado, let's get on with the show!
What time is it?
React Time!
First, today's show is guest-starring the one and only: Jessie!
Jessie pops into existence above the center of the stage, the spotlight beaming down on her and making her gold hairpin glisten as it holds her black hair out of her face. Startled by her sudden arrival, she yelps and almost falls down as she drops to the stage, but regains her balance quickly. She smooths down her denim overalls over her white shirt with red sleeves and realizes that she is . . . different.
"What happened to my body?" she asks to herself, looking over as much of herself as she can. Then she looks up, which is when she realizes she is the center of attention in front of a decent sized number of people, who are cheering and clapping for her.
"Uhhh, where am I?" She looks around in confusion, her muscles tensing in defense.
You are on the amazing new show Minecraft: React Mode!
Jessie jumps, startled by the voice. Her eyes narrow. "Who are you? Why have you brought me here?" she asks accusingly.
A girl just as short as Jesse walks out onto the stage next to her. Her black hair swings behind her and her dark eyes sparkle as she speaks into the microphone she is holding.
To answer your first question, my name is ShiningHopeBeast (call me Shining for short). I am the host of Minecraft: React Mode! As to why you're here- to react to things of course!
Jessie eyes her warily before deciding the scrawny girl isn't much of a threat. She speaks slowly and carefully. "What do you mean, react?"
I mean, react! I show you something, and you respond genuinely to it. Nothing else on your part.
"What kinds of things will I react to?" Jesse relaxes more, her natural curiosity getting the better of her.
Oh, I don't know. Lots of things. Random things. Whatever the viewers come up with.
Shining gestures to the crowd in front of them with her free hand, shrugging.
"And nothing bad is going to happen, right? This won't require the world to need saving again, will it?" Jessie asks.
Nope! Everything will be great! I promise you, this is not a secret plan to take over the world. Nothing bad will happen.
Shining beams with a wide, friendly grin. Jesse seems to believe her and nods along.
At least, I hope nothing bad will happen, she adds underneath her breath.
"So, what will I be reacting to first?" Jesse puts a hand on her hip, raising an eyebrow.
Well, that's a good question! Today you will be reacting to . . .

Today you'll be reacting to . . .
Shining stops, holding a finger up in the air.
Wait! We're missing something. Or rather, someone! We have another guest in today's episode! Drumroll, please!
A very cheesy drumroll sound plays before the announcer guy introduces the other guest star.
Also in today's episode, we are starring the dashing young man Lukas!
Lukas pops in right next to Jessie and falls to the stage to her right. Luckily, he lands with the same grace as a cat. As cheers and shrill screaming come from the audience, he narrows his eyes, eyeing the fan-girls cheering for him. He turns around to look at his surroundings and comes face to face with Jessie.
"Jessie?" His eyes widen in surprise. "What are you doing here?" He pauses before amending his query. "Better question, what am I doing here?"
Jessie quickly rattles off all the details she knows. "We're on this show called Minecraft: React Mode, and she is the host." She points over her back to Shining, who grins and waves cheerily. "Her name is ShiningHopeBeast; call her Shining for short. The point of this show is for us to react to a bunch of random things that the viewers-" She points her hand to the audience- "come up with. Don't worry: this is all pretty much harmless. There's nothing evil going on here." She turns to Shining. "And you never did tell me what in the world happened to my body."
Oh! That's what today's react is about! Real-world human bodies!
"What do you mean, real world?" asks Lukas.
"And what do you mean by human bodies?" adds Jessie.
Well, it's kind of hard to explain, but I'll do my best. So basically, you guys live in this alternate universe sort of thing, where everything is mostly made of blocks. There's nothing really round in your world. Even people are very blocky. Also, you guys have very strict and standard mechanics. Like you have a certain number of times you can get hit before you die. Or you can build things with blocks. In the real world, it's not limited to blocks. People are not blocky- they have different figures.
Jessie shrugs. "I guess that kinda makes sense, in a weird way."
Lukas shakes his head, trying to wrap his mind around it before giving up with a sigh. "Sure. Whatever you say."
What time is it?
React Time!
Today you are reacting to- real-world human bodies!
Jessie shrugs at Lukas, her elbows and wrists bending so that her palms face the ceiling. Lukas however, isn't paying attention to her, but instead is checking himself out.
"Woah," he says quietly as he holds his hand out in front of him. He splays his fingers and flexes them, watching the joints bend. "That's so weird." He wiggles his fingers before making a fist. "I didn't know that hands could do that."
Jessie is more captivated by her overall figure. She marvels at how her waist is slimmer and her hips and chest wider than the rest of her body, and how her arms and legs are generally cylindrical. She reaches a hand up to touch- gasp!- what was this? Something connecting her head to her torso? It was round and soft, and she could wrap her two hands around it- the wonder of having five separate fingers!
That's called your 'neck', Shining explains. It connects your head to your body and holds your esophagus, AKA throat, windpipe, vocal cords, and larynx.
"Neck," Jessie repeats softly. She turns her attention to her head, which is no longer a box. She feels how it slimmed down to a rounded point- her chin. And her hair! She runs her fingers through it, letting some come to the front instead of being flat and immobile against her back.
Lukas is still amazed by his hands. He is bending his pinky finger forwards to see how much it can bend when it cracks with a loud pop! Fascinated, he began popping all of his knuckles one by one.
Shining grimaces at the sound, internally shivering.
Well, I think that's all the time we have for today, folks!
Jessie and Lukas stop what each of them is doing and turn to her.
"Really? That's it?" Jesse questions. "That was short!"
I did kinda take up a lot of time at the beginning introducing our show. And I need to talk some more after you guys leave, so . . .
"Fingers are cool," Lukas breathes, making different shapes with them.
Don't worry, you guys will be back soon! There's a whole load of episodes coming up in the future, and you'll get to be a part of some of them! Oh- and don't forget to tell your friends all about your experience today and get them pumped for the chance to be on the show next time! Whoever you don't talk to, we'll send out formal letters- but it's not as fun as talking to someone with experience, is it? Well, it's time for you guys to head back to Minecraft!
"Mine . . . Craft?" asks Lukas quizzically.
Oh, that's the name of your guys' universe.
"Oh."
Say goodbye to everyone!
Jessie and Lukas turn back to the audience. "Byeee!" calls Jesse with a grin and a wave. Lukas smiles and waved as well before they disappear with a flash.
Shining steps into the spotlight, speaking into her microphone with her other hand on her hip.
Alright, everyone, that's it for the first ever episode of Minecraft: React Mode! I hope you enjoyed it! And now a little more stuff to say before we close today.
Firstly, Minecraft: React Mode will be a weekly show. Every week on Sunday the newest episode will come out, unless something comes up, which you will be notified of.
Secondly, don't forget to vote for whom you want to be in the next episode of Minecraft: React Mode! The poll will be up on my profile- go and check it out and vote! Read the poll description first, but just so you know, you have up to five different votes for characters on the list. Remember, the highest voted person(s) will be in the upcoming react!
Also, remember to send in ideas you have for the next episode! You can do it in the form of a review or in the form of a PM. It can be as silly or as serious, happy or sad, strange or normal, as you want- anything you want!- (as long as it is Family Friendly). I will be looking at all the suggestions, and one lucky person will get their idea chosen! Will it be you?
Additionally, the poll for the characters and the openings for idea suggestions for the upcoming episode will close Friday night (where I live)- that means you'll only have Sunday-Friday to make your suggestions or votes each week! (That's because we'll be filming and editing the episode on Saturday- this is not a live show.)
Finally, we do not own Minecraft: Story Mode, Minecraft, Telltale Games, etc.
We are looking forward to hearing from you all! Have a great week, and we'll see you next time on Minecraft: React Mode!
