    Summary

    After a while, the boy looked up at Grian, “Why are you guys- Why are you so fuckin’ nice? I’ve been here for like half an hour, and no one has gotten angry at me for being a dick, that Xisuma bitch saved my life, and helped me calm down after a freakout- What the fuck? I don’t understand!” He cried, and Grian just let him talk. It hurt to hear, and made him wonder who hurt this kid.
    His avian instincts weren’t helping either, it was not the time to be trying to take in an abandoned fledgling. It also did not help that between the ugly sobs the kid was making, he could hear the repressed chirps that struggled to pass through whatever barrier this kid had put up to stop any bird-like sounds.

    Summary

    "Don't do anything to him," Tommy manages, heartbeat throbbing and throbbing. "Please."

    Wilbur frowns, but it's Techno who steps forward. "Tommy, he's not going to do anything," Techno tells him cautiously. "You don't need to worry, alright?"

    To you, Tommy would say, if he was stronger. He's not going to do anything to you.

    But he doesn't. Tommy keeps his mouth shut—whatever it takes to stay.

     

    When Techno and Wilbur Soot-Watson anger a bully, it shouldn't be an issue. They are as untouchable as they can get, for students anyway.

    It's unfortunate that Tommy, their foster brother, isn't. Being their soft spot, it only makes sense that he becomes the next target.

    Summary

    “I don’t want to leave.” Grian said, finally looking up to Scar. Beneath that flat, controlled tone and stoic expression, there was something unbearably sad.

    ~

    Scar and Grian were left in the world, alone, forced to finish the game. To honor the months they spent in the desert, the two make a five day pilgrimage to the Monopoly Mountain.
    This follows their death march to Pizza's grave, the complex emotions that both of them have trouble processing and communicating, and the sense of doom up to the bloody, bitter and ugly end. Scar has a home - Hermitcraft - to return to, and Grian has to return to the Watchers. What can you do when your fate is already written for you?

    (Expect DesertDuo hurt/comfort and shenanigans, lots of emotions, Scar's Adventure Stew [tm], Grian ignoring his emotions, the final fight scene and a brief look at the aftermath of the game)
