something in the woods somewhere by Enderwoah
Fandoms: Hermitcraft SMP, Minecraft (Video Game)
14 Apr 2024

Summary
A strange man appears behind mushrooms out of thin air, sporting facial features that wouldn't make sense on a good day, pointed ears and black eyes, dressed like he's going to a dinner party in the middle of the forest and changing the temperature with his mere arrival.
This isn't a person at all. This is a faerie.
...oh, clouds, he's just taken something that belongs to a faerie. He just snapped at a member of the fae.
[or: mumbo is a little too nosy for his own well-being. luckily, the fae that he stumbles across is more intrigued than malicious and terribly, terribly bored. title from in the woods somewhere by hozier.]

What You Have in Common With Roses by Wywrd_Artemis

Summary
As sweet by any other name—and pricks all the same
Most humans traveling through the woods treat fae with both fear and respect. When Scar meets a human who shows neither, he’s instantly fascinated. Unfortunately, he doesn’t know the first thing about interaction with humans, let alone human courtship—so Scar settles on pestering the odd traveler to try and steal his name. That’s close enough, right?

Summary
It wasn't too bad, really. After a while you learn to ignore the pain in your stomach, or the dizziness when you stand, or the hollow pits around your eyes. You keep your head down, tough it out, and eventually spring will come. Usually.
Or, Grian is a starving fisherman that stumbles upon Scar’s court

Summary
Throughout his life Grian's always hid his status as a shapeshifter, in fact he frequently wished that he wasn't one, that he had a stable an consistent form just like everyone else. One day The Watchers, in their endless cruelty, granted his wish in the worst possible way before forcing him into solitude for far too long for him to keep track. Now once again faced with players in the previously empty world, Grian really has no idea what to do.

Harbinger of Havoc and Ruin by ForgedDusk (WildSoul_DetachedRealm)

Summary
Watchers live in a realm separate from the servers in their domain, not actively taking part in any one world within their jurisdiction out of disdain for the greed of players/humans.
Listeners live closer to the servers as they are lesser known to the mortals, and they are not as powerful so they are less coveted by power-hungry parasites.
Xelqua was a different sort of Watcher, having once been a player herself that the Watchers greatly favored for her lack of greed for power, just wanting to have fun and cause chaos.
Xelqua had ventured to close to a server at the edge of the Watchers’ domain, and ended up summoned by a cult with no idea how to return back. (Although she mostly doesn’t care.)
Wanting to know more about the mortals that she had once been among, she opted to venture the server in secret as the others figured out a way to bring her back.Bookmarked by ShadowState

Summary
Grian had been running for what felt like hours, gliding through the deep void in an attempt to escape the Watchers.
After finally finding a server to hide in he quickly realises that it was, in fact, not abandoned as he had assumed.When Xisuma went to check the new Hermitcraft Server he saw an intruder hack into it - quite literally.
Though it quickly turns out that the intruder was more a fugitive, running away from the very monsters the admin hated with his entire being.Walking a thin line between truth and lie Grian tries his best to cling to the new safe haven to heal up and hide from his captors, making more connections than he had preferred.
Sadly the Watchers had their own plans with their little disobedient experiment.- Language:

Summary
Xisuma was having an almost normal day.
All went downhill from there.-
The Watchers’s declaration of war against mortals, among all the grandstanding, also boasted the capture of Xisumavoid, the Admin Voidwalker.
It has consequences.

three points where two lines meet by Odaigahara for Idkhowtodothis

Summary
“You could not ban an interloper,” Gem suggested. “I mean, I’m-- I’m a cool person, I have skills.”
Grian narrowed his black eyes at her. Gem wished she could be less aware of his shadow and the ridiculous aura around him, that hint of take a step back that most public server admins wielded as more of a uniform than anything, but she couldn’t stop feeling her skin crawl.
She could feel the code access, if she focused on it. The server-level shifts that’d set her to adventure mode, and whatever had forcibly emptied her inventory on arrival so she didn’t have a single keepsake, so she didn’t even have her sweater.
Grian must’ve done that remotely, as soon as he learned she’d shown up.

Change with the Tides by Mitos (SeriouslyCalamitous)
Fandoms: Hermitcraft SMP, Life Series | 3rd Life SMP Series
05 Mar 2025
Tags
Summary
Grian presumed his soul was actively leaving his body – providing him with just another last minute delusion to take him into the next life - until he heard music.
His tired delusions were a lot of things, but they were never music.
Grian blinked, once, twice, then a third time. Still, the shape on the horizon didn’t fade. The light didn’t fade. The music didn’t fade. This wasn’t the blurry shadow of what may or may not be a rock, or the light of the moon against a wave imitating a town. This was a genuine miracle. This was his relief.
It was a ship!
- or -
After being cursed by a witch, Grian finds himself stuck in the form of a parrot with no way to change back, and only a conveniently handsome pirate captain to rely on until he reaches land.

Foolhearted by Mitos (SeriouslyCalamitous)

Summary
“I’m sorry, Grian,” Scar repeated. “Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?”
For a moment, Scar thought he saw Grian’s gaze dip again, but with distance between them, and the glare from a lamp on the other man’s glasses, he couldn’t be entirely sure. It made his heart squeeze all the same.
Grian straightened, huffing, “No.”
Scar hesitated. “Are you sure?”
“Positive,” Grian said. He leaned into the couch cushions, his countenance changing with the wave of a hand. His face relaxed, his legs crossed in front of him, and a wide smile split his lips. “You’ll pay for what you’ve done in due time.”
- or -
After an April Fool's Day prank goes wrong, and his fake flirting attempts go south, Scar has to endure an entire day of Grian giving him a taste of his own medicine.

Kiss and Tell by Mitos (SeriouslyCalamitous)

Tags
Summary
“The only way to truly know that kissing isn’t for me would be to test it.” Grian propped his head on his hand, mulling it over absently. “Specifically, with someone who’s known to not be a bad kisser.”
His roommate tensed.
Grian raised a brow. “Is something the matter?”
At the sound of his voice, a small change crossed Scar’s face. He relaxed a bit, mouth pulling into a polite smile. “Well, if a good kisser is all you need,” Scar said. “I’ve never gotten any complaints.”
- or -
After a couple bad experiences, Grian's fairly sure kissing isn't something he enjoys. Scar seeks to change that.

Summary
Scar could be the poster child for trouble, though usually it doesn't mean coming face to face with a deity, “Well, last I checked, Watchers cannot die.” and getting stuck on their island, " Even with your boat, you cannot leave my island." But at least he's used to getting himself out of it.
.
.
.OR tired of the Watchers, Xelqua creates a hidden island safe haven for himself, in which nobody can get on or off. Nobody except apparently, Scar, who somehow ends up on his island and gets stuck there.
inspired by Love In Paradise from EPIC: The Musical, featuring Grian as Calypso

Summary
Grian had a secret.
Not one that he was super happy about, either. Not one that he could share, not one that he could get off his chest. It was one that weighed on him – or maybe he held onto it with scarred, scared hands. Because if he told anyone, then things would change. People would change. His life….everything would fall apart.
Because Grian was a Watcher. And that made him dangerous

Summary
"Grian, what are these?"
Weakness, he tries to rasp; it comes out garbled, so he sucks in a long, slow breath and tries again, lungs trembling with the effort. "Weak– weakness."
Scar drops the bottle like it's burned him. "You took three weakness potions?" he chokes out, and that seems to break whatever trance Xisuma, Pearl, and Tango have been in this entire time. They rush forward, eating the distance between them in rapid strides, until they're all crouched around Grian.
Grian shuts his eyes again, before remembering he isn't supposed to do that. He wants to say sorry. What he says instead, is: "It was– safer. Like this. For you."
It amounts to about the same thing.
Or, I finally buckle down and post the rough draft of hunger au, where I give Grian every mental illness known to man and also a few new ones. Please heed the tags.
