    Summary

    Scar held the bag of gold aloft, waving it over his head as his team cheered. It hadn’t been too difficult to take down the target, just a rogue golem that had slipped out of its control spell and rampaged through a small village, but the reward had been a few dozen gold pieces, plus a boost to the mercenaries’ reputations.
    He barely noticed as an almost imperceptible weight vanished from his right side. He quickly whipped around, searching the crowd as his hand patted his belt, predictably finding the sack of gold they’d earned today missing. Sighing, Scar rolled up his sleeve and pressed the pad of his thumb against the True Sight sigil Inked into his skin, the pair of eyes lighting up as he applied pressure and spoke the activation phrase.
    The brunet winced at the wave of energy rolling through him, blinking a few times to adjust to the new wave of information hitting his brain as every detail became ten times sharper. He quickly noticed his target, a short man with a hair color between blonde and brown who was turned away from him and in the process of slipping a certain bag under his jacket. Grinning to himself, Scar calmly began to walk after the pickpocket; the thief was good, but not good enough.

    Summary

    “This is a trick, I know it, you can give it up now.” Pause. “Stop it. I know you’re a trap, don’t pretend.” Pause. “I’m not…I’m not going to fall for it.”

    Grian tried to roll off of his mangled wing, a string of broken chirps spilling from his lips as he did so, pain spiking through the limb. He lay on his stomach, drained and exhausted and hurt, and the tears continued to fall to the freezing cobbles beneath him.

    “The snap wasn’t real, you’re…you’re faking it. You’re…this isn’t real, this is a trap…” Pause. “Okay. Fine. I’m…I’m coming over. But no sudden moves. I…I’m bigger than you, I know where your weak spots are, you can’t attack me and win.”

    A quiet shuffling sound came from in front of him, slightly to his right, and it was getting closer. He tried to shrink back, but for his efforts, he received another spike of agony through his wing. He weakly chirped, hurt-hurt-help-please, and the shuffling stopped.

    “Okay, I’m gonna…I’m gonna touch you now, you can’t…don’t move.”

    Summary

    Life with the watchers was a constant flip-flop between too much and too little. Sometimes Xelqua would find himself entertained for years, watching over his players, sometimes he’d be working with other Watchers, punishing those who disobeyed, sometimes he’d be the one being punished. Other times he found himself drifting in the void, the silence loud in his ears as he floated, his wings beating idly to keep him afloat in the starry darkness.

    It was during one of those times, as he watched the lights fall and rise, waiting for Oculine to give him something to Watch, that he felt something change. For the first time in three hundred years, he felt his code, it was tugging him towards something in the distance.

    ---------------------------------------------

    A series of events leads to Grian getting his wings broken, joining hermitcraft, and inadvertantly getting mentally adopted by Xisuma. Grian wants none of those things to happen, but theyre going to anyways.

    This fic is made solely for me, so please read whats on the tin!

    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.
