It’s Just Some Little Thing is a Minecraft YouTube fanfiction by CurrentlyWorry. It is a Modern AU, centered around an Enemies to Lovers story arc for the QSMP pairing of Cellbit and Roier. It was posted to Archive of Our Own between June 2023 and September 2023. As of July 11, 2024 it is currently the most popular QSMP fic by kudos count on AO3.

Summary

Cellbit quickly cuts him off, “What’s your name, if you don’t mind me asking? I feel like it’s only fair, since you apparently know so much about me.”

The guy schools his expression into something more neutral, but Cellbit can tell he’s just dying to be rude- he probably would’ve already had some sort of smart ass response if they weren’t currently in a classroom surrounded by other parents. Instead, the man responds, “My name’s Roier. My son’s name is Bobby, in case you were wondering that, too.”

Cellbit definitely was wondering, so he can tell Richarlyson which kid to stay away from.

---

Or: When Cellbit overhears another dad criticizing his son during a little league game, he promises to never interact with that asshole or his son ever again. Too bad Richarlyson doesn't feel the same, since said asshole's son ends up becoming his best friend. (Enemies-to-Lovers!AU)

Author's Notes

At the end of the fic, CurrentlyWorry left the following author's note:

13 chapters and an epilogue later, It's Just Some Little Thing is complete!

When I posted the first chapter at the start of summer, I really did not anticipate the reaction this fic would receive. Sorry to be a little parasocial for a second, but my main reason for starting this story was because I was in a pretty bad place mentally- I really needed a long project that would distract me while I was getting my shit together. Now that this fic is ending, I've had a lot of people comment and reach out to me to tell me how much this fic has meant to them, so I think it's really important that you guys know how much this fic has meant to ME, too.

I genuinely expected to give up on this fic halfway through. I had the entire story planned out, but I honestly didn't think I had the motivation to write the entire thing. Now, almost 200k words (!!!) later, the fic is complete, with the only deviation in my Sunday upload schedule being posting a day EARLIER once. For someone who has always lacked motivation and has a hard time completing things on time, this was HUGE for me. And I didn't just gain this motivation to post out of nowhere: It's because of all of YOU that I felt encouraged enough to keep posting every week. All of your wonderful comments and kudos and tweets and bookmarks made me realize that, for some strange reason, people were actually looking forward to what I was writing! This was a very crazy experience for me, someone who has never received this sort of positive feedback in my LIFE.

So, I just wanted to take this final author's note to say: Thank you! I never, ever would've expected to find such an amazing community in a MINECRAFT SERVER (lol). Maybe this note seems too sappy for a fanfiction about cubitos, but I just wanted you guys to know how much I appreciated your support and the way your compliments are going to follow me to every project I do from now on, qsmp or otherwise.

This fic is complete now, but I definitely plan on writing more! Probably more oneshots from now on, just to give myself a little break lol. I'm super active on twitter, so if you'd like to chat with me or wanna know what new fics I'm working on, that's the best place to reach out (@currentlyworry).

Thank you so much for reading! Have an amazing week, and I'll see ya when I see ya! :)
