    Summary

    "I don't want to pry," Xisuma said when they were speaking before his official invitation to join. "And not answering won't change whether or not you get whitelisted. We admins just prefer to have a heads up if anything's likely to come trying to dig you up, so we can keep you and everyone else safe."

    Grian thought back to obsidian and endstone and blood, to tattered wings and torn robes and so so many unseeable eyes, and swallowed hard.

    "No," he said, his voice shaky. "No, I don't think anyone will come looking for me."

    "Okay," Xisuma answered, and that was that.

    Until they invited two new people to the server.

    or, the Hermitcraft Backstory Rule says that you don't ask other people about their backstory, you let them tell it if they want to and leave it be if they don't.

    Unfortunately for Grian, one of the newest Hermits was also a player on his old server - one he'd thought had been dead for years - and she's going to drag his backstory kicking and screaming into the light whether she means to or not.

    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.”

    - or -

    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.

    Summary

    The Admin sinks to one knee. “What are you doing?” Xelqua demands before he can stop himself, voice cracking.

    “Well,” a voice comes from The Admin, and it is… it is not weird, but it is, and Xelqua can not describe how - just that it sends another shiver down his spine. “You don’t exactly look happy, and I’m afraid that may have something to do with me.”

    It does. “That doesn’t exactly explain your… Everything.”

    “No use in intimidating you, friend.”

    Or: 5 times Grian meets a Hermit, and one time they already knew one another.

    Summary

    Grian’s really not that much of a picky eater, no matter what Pearl says. It’s just… a little hard to eat sometimes, that’s all. It’s fine, though, no big deal - he’s got plenty of tricks to get through it.

    (AKA, how Grian gets through the ordeal of eating, from when he’s a Player to when he’s… not.)

    (Inspired by the hunger au by definitelynotshouting!!)
