ImpulseSV's Double Life: Episode 1

**DOUBLE TROUBLE!** is ImpulseSV's first episode of Double Life. It was uploaded on June 17, 2022.

## Plot

The episode starts with Grian’s introductory video, after which we see ImpulseSV gather wood, stone, and iron and make tools. He crafts a lot of shields and comes across EthosLab, GoodTimesWithScar, and BdoubleO100. He gives each of them a shield and they ask him to help them fight a bunch of underground mobs. EthosLab gives ImpulseSV a stone sword and GoodTimesWithScar pushes him into the underground cave.

ImpulseSV fights off creepers and skeletons while the others enter the cave behind him and he crafts torches to spread around the cave. BdoubleO100 and GoodTimesWithScar leave while ImpulseSV and EthosLab kill an Enderman and continue to mine in the cave before deciding to go to the surface and kill animals for food.

ImpulseSV and EthosLab notice GoodTimesWithScar, BdoubleO100, and InTheLittleWoods going to the pillager outpost and decide to follow them. They fight off the pillagers together and GoodTimesWithScar obtains an allay. ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100 cook food and share it with GoodTimesWithScar while fighting off more pillagers. They leave the vicinity of the pillager outpost and mine exposed ores next to a river.

BdoubleO100 is shot by a skeleton and ImpulseSV takes damage; ImpulseSV then lets himself by the same skeleton so they can confirm that they are indeed soulmates. EthosLab and InTheLittleWoods come sailing towards them in a boat and BdoubleO100 tells the two that he and ImpulseSV are in love. InTheLittleWoods hits ImpulseSV to check whether they are speaking the truth and EthosLab questions whether they have a happy marriage; they assure him that they are extremely happy.

ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100 go caving together and BdoubleO100 confides in ImpulseSV that he’s worried about killing him and that he doesn’t have any food. They notice the name tags of Solidarity, EthosLab, GoodTimesWithScar, InTheLittleWoods, and SmallishBeans in a cave below them but decide not to go to them; instead, they go to the surface to gather food. They meet Rendog and tell him they are soulbound. Rendog congratulates them and asks them when the wedding is; they respond that they already had the wedding, and that Rendog probably didn’t get the invitation.

ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100 leave Rendog and break grass for wheat seeds. They find two cows and put them in a boat together. ImpulseSV smelts iron while BdoubleO100 starts a wheat farm. Grian comes across them and shows them the horn he obtained. He asks them whether either of them took a lot of damage and they tell him they are soulmates. Grian thinks he might be partnered to either Solidarity or GoodTimesWithScar and leaves to go look for his soulmate.

ImpulseSV crafts a bucket and he and BdoubleO100 harvest watermelons, planning on keeping some of them for a farm. ImpulseSV goes looking for water while BdoubleO100 stays behind to tend to the crops. ImpulseSV finds water near the border of the map and returns to BdoubleO100 who is talking to TangoTek. He puts the water next to the wheat farm and the three of them fight off a skeleton; TangoTek gives BdoubleO100 the bone that the skeleton dropped as he needs it for the farm.

TangoTek leaves the two and ImpulseSV spreads torches around their base. They discuss what style they want their base to be (they decide on mid-century modern) and ImpulseSV digs into the hillside while BdoubleO100 starts building with spruce planks. ImpulseSV moves the furnace and crafting table inside the base and realizes he’ll need another bucket of water to make an infinite water source and to keep BdoubleO100 safe, who is building high up.

ImpulseSV hands BdoubleO100 his water bucket and makes an iron chestplate for him, which BdoubleO100 thinks shows that ImpulseSV doesn’t trust him to stay safe. BdoubleO100 leaves to get water while ImpulseSV continues working on the base. Bigbst4tz2 comes across ImpulseSV and tells him he already knows that he’s soulmates with BdoubleO100 since BdoubleO100 told him. Bigbst4tz2 leaves to go looking for his soulmate and food, though ImpulseSV tells him he’s free to stop by for food at a later date.

BdoubleO100 returns to the base and he and ImpulseSV place their beds together before laying down together for a moment. BdoubleO100 cooks chicken, beef, and mutton and hands two eggs to ImpulseSV; however, neither of the eggs spawns chickens. BdoubleO100 places jungle wood to start a cocoa bean farm and makes an infinite water source before handing the bucket back to ImpulseSV.

GoodTimesWithScar and Grian visit BdoubleO100’s and ImpulseSV’s base and lie in their beds; Smajor1995 and ZombieCleo show up as well, and ImpulseSV tells them he and BdoubleO100 are soulmates. Smajor1995 and ZombieCleo believe that they are paired with PearlescentMoon and InTheLittleWoods and ask ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100 whether they have seen those two; they respond negative. Smajor1995 tells the two that SmallishBeans is stealing their crops and they head outside.

Smajor1995 and ZombieCleo leave together while SmallishBeans, ImpulseSV, and EthosLab meet up with Solidarity, who tells them about how he died and lost all his items when TangoTek blew up. SmallishBeans gives Solidarity mangrove roots and BdoubleO100 gives him directions towards spawn. SmallishBeans reveals that he and EthosLab are bonded, and they capture an Enderman in a boat, only for SmallishBeans to accidentally break the boat and get killed by the Enderman, which also kills EthosLab.

BdoubleO100 kills the Enderman, and he and ImpulseSV collect SmallishBeans and EthosLab’s items. ImpulseSV crafts a chest to put the items in while Solidarity decides to keep one of their spyglasses. Solidarity leaves to go check on TangoTek while SmallishBeans and EthosLab return to retrieve their items. ImpulseSV asks to keep one of their amethyst shards and they agree. SmallishBeans and EthosLab think that ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100 still have some of their stuff, but they tell them that a creeper blew up after they died, which might have caused some of their items to disappear. BdoubleO100 gives EthosLab his iron leggings back and EthosLab gives BdoubleO100 his and ImpulseSV’s beds back.

BdoubleO100 and ImpulseSV return to their base while SmallishBeans and EthosLab leave in boats. BdoubleO100 and ImpulseSV plan on getting iron so ImpulseSV will have armor, and BdoubleO100 asks ImpulseSV for a clock to seal the deal. ImpulseSV goes caving by himself and explores a mineshaft. He notices the deep dark but decides not to go there. He returns to the base and admires BdoubleO100’s progress on it.

ImpulseSV smelts gold and shows BdoubleO100 the golden apple he found in the mineshaft, which they aren’t allowed to eat. BdoubleO100 plans on framing the apple and putting it on the wall, calling it ‘the forbidden fruit’. ImpulseSV crafts a clock and hands it to BdoubleO100, making their bond official. BdoubleO100 hands ImpulseSV four gold ore that he stole from someone else’s chest.

ImpulseSV asks BdoubleO100 if he’s seen any brown mushrooms and explains his plan to make suspicious stew for regeneration. InTheLittleWoods and PearlescentMoon show up at their base with items from the Nether to trade. BdoubleO100 asks for one blaze rod, one nether wart, and one soul sand while ImpulseSV asks for a brown mushroom. They offer InTheLittleWoods and PearlescentMoon copper, but they ask for diamonds. They then offer their golden apple, but PearlescentMoon already has one of those. BdoubleO100 offers them two cattle for food, but they reveal that they already have porkchops from killing hoglins.

PearlescentMoon and InTheLittleWoods start leaving but PearlescentMoon turns back and asks them for a horn. BdoubleO100 gives PearlescentMoon a horn and ImpulseSV quickly puts his sword away. InTheLittleWoods hands ImpulseSV a brown mushroom and asks whether, in exchange for a blaze rod, he can have access to ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100’s cow farm, promising to repopulate it whenever he uses it. BdoubleO100 initially accepts the deal, but ImpulseSV demands for two blaze rods while BdoubleO100 thinks they should get one soul sand and one Nether wart as well. InTheLittleWoods declines and he and PearlescentMoon leave.

InTheLittleWoods eventually returns to the base and gives BdoubleO100 one blaze rod, one nether wart, and one soul sand in exchange for unlimited access to the cow farm. InTheLittleWoods leaves and ImpulseSV and BdoubleO100 plan to make a secret room at the back of their base. The explore the cave system behind their base before putting two baby cows in a secret chamber at the back of the cave.

BdoubleO100 makes a cobblestone cover outside the base and ImpulseSV plants the brown mushroom under it. He bonemeals the mushroom but it doesn’t grow. BdoubleO100 makes a composter inside the base so they can get more bonemeal. They try to grow the mushroom again, but it doesn’t work. BdoubleO100 breaks leaves from a spruce tree he grew next to the base and obtains a sapling. He makes more bonemeal with the leaves while ImpulseSV chops the spruce tree. BdoubleO100 manage to grow the mushroom and ImpulseSV collects the brown mushroom blocks and removes the white stem.

ImpulseSV puts two brown mushrooms in a chest in the base and gathers oxeye daisies, planning on making suspicious stew on the next session. He then ends the episode.
