    Summary

    Scar can’t answer, too busy trying to control his breathing. It was Grian who had helped him build their home in the desert. It was Grian who had chosen to stay by his side, even after he didn’t have to anymore. It was Grian who had sat on the mountain with him, pointing out the stars and naming them.

    It was Grian who had looked at him when they were the only two left, and had said there had to be a winner. It was Grian who had led him back to their mountain, hand in hand, and beat him to death in the shifting sands.

    Grian remembered none of it.

    OR,
    The prize of the victor is to forget what they had to do to win. This causes problems for Scar, who has developed a fear of Grian and can’t tell him why.

    Summary

    He should have know it would happen, eventually. He was discovered, unmasked as a Watcher and sent away for the safety of the server. All of those living in Hermitcraft had any memories of him wiped, save a little ache in a soulmate's chest.

    Now he watches, and protects, and yearns.

    Title is from "Graceland Too" by Phoebe Bridgers.

    Summary

    Xisuma is absolutely terrified of water.

    He wouldn’t be caught dead admitting it though.

    Or, a ton of times X failed to tell anyone about his phobia, and the few times he couldn’t ignore it any longer.

    Summary

    Etho didn’t like touch. 

    This was understood amongst the Hermits. It was a thing. Just as Joel hated horses and Mumbo hated sitting still, Etho would shrink away from physical contact and stand on the outskirts of social situations. The Hermits understood that you didn’t touch Etho. 

    However, something being understood was very different to something being practised.

    --

    Etho hates touch. The hermits don't understand the breadth of his fear. He struggles to articulate this.

    Summary

    “How do I know?” The kid spits, knife raised again, trembling violently. His eyes are wet, angry and pleading and piercing right down into Grian’s soul.

    “...If I can fly?” Grian asks, confused. His heart is beating fast.

    The boy shakes his head violently, taking a lurching step forward, now only a few feet away. Something about his eyes almost seems familiar, but the thought is fleeting. The knife looks sharp. The child is crying, slow tears that barely have an effect on his voice.

    No,” the kid says forcefully. “How do I know you’re not a zombie?

     

     

    OR,

     

    A young Scar fresh from a world overtaken by zombies stumbles through The Rift onto Hermitcraft, and is quickly adopted by the rest of the Hermits, who have no idea who he actually is.
    An older Scar grapples with a past that he'd rather forget, all while trying to avoid the version of himself he left behind a long time ago.

    Summary

    "Don't make me take back my words," Grian grumbled.

    Hotguy beamed at him. "Well then! Why don't we get you home, beauty?" Hotguy questioned, holding his arm out for Grian to take.

    Grian rolled his eyes but indulged the hero. He slotted his hand through the man's arm and gave him a questioning smile, "Seriously, why do you keep calling me that?"

    Hotguy gave a sly smile but nothing else, letting the professor's question be left on a cliffhanger.

    -

    Grian just can't get a break. He works a double life, has to deal with an annoying hero cop, and now there's someone or something following his every move. So, being the idiot he is, does everything in his power to ignore such. Unfortunately, that can not be done for long no matter how hard he tries.

    Summary

    “I think we have a neighbour,” Scar tells him, tiny hat perched on his head, and Impulse frowns.
    “You mean Cub?” he says, because Cub’s the only other person he can think of in the immediate vicinity. 
    “Oh, no, no,” Scar says. “I meant of the ghostly variety.”

    Summary

    My Grian was sorry too, reads the note pinched between Grian's fingers. His skin feels cold under Grumbot's acid-green glow. What exactly does that say, he wonders, about the other timeline? What did Grumbot do?

    What did he do?

    Or: in another universe, Mumbo wins the mayoral race, Scar founds the world's least underground resistance, Grian vanishes mysteriously, and in search of her missing friend, PearlescentMoon logs into a season 7 that never ended.

    Summary

    “What’s the use of you if you’re never here? We just want what’s best for you. We love you, Scar.” They purred, a gentle hand brushing through his hair. They're going to snap your throat. They're going to slice your gills. They’re going to-

    Their grip hardened, fingernail digging into his scalp. “You’re so privileged compared to the animals. Don’t we treat you nicely?”

    No, you don’t. “You do.” He assured.

    “Now, why don’t you show us your use? We have a new fighter for you to train.” They said, the burning grip finally letting up as they pulled away.
    ~~~~~
    Scar has been here for years. The cycle repeated every time, it didn't matter that he was their favorite. ‘Train, fight, repeat. Stay polite, play along, and don't die.’ He’s tasked to train a new mer for fighting, but what happens when this mer has help…?

    Nothing. He will never trust humans again. (Right?)

    But maybe, someones destiny is more entwined with his than he thought.

    Summary

    Grian is home early. Which is fine and all, Mumbo doesn't have to know everything Grian gets up to, but he was pretty sure he was at work today, so it's just a little odd.

    Especially because Martyn walks in behind him.

    What if Grian had joined Dogwarts instead?

    Summary

    The Watchers didn't tell Grian much about the new life games, only that it would be like Evolution SMP. When the game begins Grian freezes, seeing the skin the Watchers put him in. They choose to remind him of his past, not Evo, not even his high school years, but his life as a wizard in a far off kingdom of Valor... He'd never told anyone of that life, refused to due to the terrible things that happened during it. How is he meant to play this new season when he's too petrified to even look at himself?

    or

    An au where everyone is placed in their old skins but the Watchers put Grian in his skin from KOV leading to him having a panic attack.

    100% of the first chapter was written before the series came out (Past life) so this is just going to be inaccurate asf. I also added Mythical Sausage and the Orion sound because I wanted them to join the series. Sue me. 3 Plus mumbo is there too because that was also written before it was released and i'm not re-writting chapter two either because I wanted mumbo in the season okay.

    "Here we are," Mumbo says, confirming Grian's suspicions (and the GPS map) that this is their destination. "Home sweet home."

    "Swanky," Grian says. "How'd you land it?"

    "Nice job," Mumbo says. "Pays really well."

    "No kidding."

    Grian moves in with Mumbo after months of Mumbo asking, but things are... weird.

    Summary

    “No, Grian!” Scar exclaims, reaching for his diamond sword. “You know, I was planning on hitting Team BEST first, give ‘em a real good thrashing. Send a message and all that! Can’t mess with ol’ Scar! Not anymore, no sir!” He takes another step toward Grian.

    It’s the instinct of green life, Grian knows, that has him backing away slowly. He takes a few tiny steps backwards.

    Scar looks at him, something angry and hurt in his gaze, “But I think you’ll make a good first message to the masses. You were the first to take advantage of me, after all.”

    or, grian has won third life. choking on his guilt, he jumps. but he isn’t taken to the afterlife. and he seems to be the only one who knows about third life.

    Summary

    Nobody had told Foolish he was supposed to be getting a new roommate this school year, but that was okay. Foolish was flexible, he could adapt. But that also meant nobody had told him he was about to acquire the most annoying, most stubborn, most insufferable roommate known to man. Somebody who, from day one, seemed to want to make Foolish’s life a living hell.

    This sure was going to be an interesting year.

    Summary

    When the nuke went off, Bad felt a pull inside of him that he hadn't felt in months, in almost a year. He cradled a shivering Dapper tightly in his arms, and he did not want to let go. He never again wanted to let go... but he knew the pull could not be resisted for long. Only bad things would follow if he tried to.

    -

    OR: q!Foolish dies to the nuke at the end of Purgatory, and q!Bad's duties as a Grim Reaper call for him. Foolish may be part Totem of Undying, but no choice for revival comes without sacrifice. (AKA I added a shitton of lore and angst regarding immortality into block game.)
