My Childe, Why Do You Do This To Yourself by CityOfAngelsIsLying for Beat_Drop
Fandoms: Vampires SMP
16 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
Owen isn't an idiot. He knows that if Scott finds out he's basically a newborn in vampire terms, he's going to take the easy meal and kill him. So, he lied-said he had been alive 200 years instead of in a state of unconciousness for 200 years. Hopefully Scott buys it.
Scott knows Owen is full of bullshit. No Sire would let a fledgling that young out of their sight at 200 years old, let alone out here. He thinks he's roughly 300, and is lying to make himself look like less of a threat.
Scott and Owen have a truce-they both stay out of each other's business and don't kill any humans. But for some reason, Owen is so, so hungry. And animal blood isn't cutting it.
Scott, on the other hand, is a little concerned at how bad at vampirism Owen is.

Summary
Cleo reappears in the mirror, this time holding a small golden crown. It’s circular, elegant, streamlined. Less of a focus on jewels and more about the curve of the metal. When she places it on his head and starts pinning it into place, it nestles into the strands of his hair like it’s coming home. “The damn treaty, where we send someone off to enemy territory–”
Cub coughs, unseen. “Not enemies anymore.”
“–to get married to a man he’s never met!”
Scar’s stomach twists.
(or, the scarian arranged marriage fic that blossomed from a "quick one shot guys this is fine" to a 16k monster. You're welcome.)

Summary
Grian kills Bdubs, and then comes after Scar with the fury of a man scorned. As he should. As is his right.
Scar does not begrudge him this. Scar kneels, waist deep in murky water, and bares his throat, and says, Kill me. And then he says, hot and desperate, We’ve won, Grian, we’ve won. Can’t we both win?
Grian, his head full of whispers, bares his teeth beneath the rising full moon, and says, No. He says, The ghosts demand a fight.
And Scar, on his knees, smiling, says, Who cares what they have to say? It’s just us here now.
And Grian – a fool, always a fool – listens to him.
(In which Scar and Grian decide to win 3rd Life together. This changes everything, and nothing at all.)

ruffled feathers by purple_nightfall

Summary
CuteGuy looked around Scar's apartment, smiling affectionately.
He caught himself, realizing that his heart was in his eyes. It was a little embarrassing to be so unabashedly fond in front of HotGuy.
Speaking of whom… the hero seemed to be breathing heavily. Maybe he’d pushed himself too hard to get here quickly.
“Here, sit down for a minute. You look winded,” CuteGuy said, pointing him to the couch. “Let me get you something to drink.” He went straight for the cupboard to the right of the stove, where Scar kept the glasses.
HotGuy sat down heavily, making a rasping noise in the back of his throat.
Better hurry with that water, Grian thought.Or: Mumbo is out of town, Grian's apartment is being remodeled, and CuteGuy needs a safe place to preen his wings. Suddenly, HotGuy finds himself somewhere much too familiar.

I Love You, You Love (the Other) Me by AmberishRose
Fandoms: Hermitcraft SMP, 3rd Life | Last Life SMP Series
07 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
Grian has a maddening long term crush on his co-worker and friend Scar. Scar is developing a budding crush on the city's new hero, Cuteguy, after he saved him, or rather his alter ego, Hotguy. Grian has no idea why everyone seems to fawn over Hotguy, and frankly its quite annoying at this point and so is the hero himself, especially now that he finds himself working alongside the boastful and flirtatious hero after accidentally taking up the mantle of Cuteguy after a good deed and a misunderstanding.

Summary
proverb - A person who wanders or travels often and at length will not be burdened by attachments such as friends, family, or possessions.
Bdubs has done well for himself, thank you very much! He's got a ship, he's got business, he's got friends! A man needs nothing more in the grand universe.
It's hard being a human in the great beyond; a new species to the intergalactic community means poachers, a black market, and an everpresent danger.
The solution? Simple! Don't be a human.
Obviously, it's not going to be as easy as that. Not when he finds himself joining the crew of the Hermit Craft, not when he learns he's not quite alone.

Summary
Starting out on Hermitcraft only knowing Mumbo was hard enough. But then there was also Doc. Doc, who was huge and intimidating already. Whose Creeperness set off Grians avian fight or flight instincts if he even looked in his direction. And who seemed to have a personal bone to pick with him courtesy of Grian being a Watcher.

Summary
"Scar?" Grian repeated, more shifting, like he was sitting up. Tired but gentle confusion in his voice. "Are you okay?"
Scar should've hung up. It was bad enough he'd actually called. He should've lied, should've said it was a misdial and pretended to be okay. He should've done a hundred things and he did the one thing he shouldn't, because despite everything that happened between them, Scar felt safest with the one who hurt him. He said, a trembling whisper, "No."

Summary
“What voices, Scar?” Martyn asks again, a bit closer now, snapping him back to attention.
“You— You know the Secret Keeper voices? When you succeed your task?” Scar asks, the words practically bursting out of him, propelled by the pressure of being kept at bay for so long.
Martyn’s eyes narrow just slightly, his gaze flickering to the Secret Keeper and then back. “Yeah, I’ve heard ‘em. We all have, far as I can tell.”
Scar nods and swallows, pasting on a shaky grin. “I hear them all the time.”
OR, The Watchers take a special interest in Scar.

Summary
The rift, while eventually settling into a cooled, inactive state, still radiates leftover energy — Xisuma had told him that it was nothing to worry about, so Grian didn’t pay it much mind, not after everything between Hermitcraft and Empires had settled.
Weeks later, the rift spits out one last body.
Evil Xisuma had been banished to the void for an indefinite sentence. He didn’t expect an early unintentional release, one that he didn’t facilitate but knows he would reap the consequences for. He wants to run, but how long would that last? He can’t leave the server, but… surely there’s something he can do, right?
Turning yourself into a cat and finding peace in a feline retirement from villainy wasn’t his plan, but he can’t say he regrets it.

Summary
“Please ask me out,” Grian said quietly.
“I want to, but not when you’re drunk,” Mumbo sighed. “And Scar too, I want you both. But when you’re sober, I won’t take advantage of you.”
“But you won’t, though,” Grian said. “You’ll pretend this never happened, cause you’re too scared of the consequences that could occur if we don’t love you back, and you don’t want to ruin our friendship.”
Or:
Grian and Scar get drunk, and Mumbo confesses to them on the premise that they’ll forget about it in the morning.

Say Hello to the Reaper Kid by Paranoid_Pug
Fandoms: Yandere high school, Hermitcraft SMP

Summary
Another scream rose in his throat. He wondered how much longer it would go on for, how much longer before what was left of his voice gave out, or whether he was just doomed to scream forever.
He wanted it to stop. He wanted this all to stop. Most of all, though, he wanted what he couldn’t have.
Revenge.
---
Or;
Grian never made it out of the dark and dingy basement, never made his escape from the town that haunted his teen years. Sam went too far, and now Grian is dead.
However, he's far from the only ghost to roam the halls of a cursed high school at night. Finding himself trapped within the halls he once walked when he was alive, Grian is determined to make something of this seemingly endless existence.
He just never quite expected that something to be a family.Series

"You've got to be kidding me," he groaned. "It's you again?"
Etho dared to roll his eyes, that bastard. Stratos was not eager to fight him again.

or: The Double Life ensemble, except Etho's Hero Agency had the great idea to partner up Heroes and Villains all to get points from the criticizing public. Amazing. Nothing can go wrong, nothing will go wrong, and everything is going to stay the same even after the partners ultimately break apart. Joel, for one, has faith in that, and Etho just hopes this won't stir up unpleasant memories from the past.

Summary
Martyn awoke with a sharp, shuddering breath, his lungs filling almost unwillingly as he shot upright. His body was on fire, the sensation flowing through his veins and culminating in his stomach like a stab wound. Which didn't seem all that far from the truth as he considered it.
“Welcome back to the land of the living." A voice came from his side, and he whipped his head around to see Grian crouching next to him. "How are you feeling?”
Martyn raised a shaking hand to eye level, turning it back and forth. It was covered in blood that glittered in the moonlight, nearly black. There was a violent wound torn into his stomach, barely held together by threads of golden magic.
“Did…am I dead?” He looked up at Grian, a feeling of dread pooling in his stomach along with the blood. “Did Scar kill me?”
“Yep.” Grian extended a hand to help him up. “And you were dead, but you’re back now. So welcome back to the land of the living.”

“And so what’s interesting about this build is that it’s actually inspired by-”
“I DON’T WANT THE HISTORY OF IT I JUST WANT THE NAME!” Bdubs shouts. Scar flinches in surprise and stares at him, mouth half-open. He tries to say something, but Bdubs cuts him off before he can start, “I know you’re gonna go down this deep path like- ‘OH! Martin Stanley came up with this thing, he was a great engineer for his time he did this and this OH here’s some concept art!!!’ Two hours later, WHAT’S IT CALLED?!?”
Scar… didn’t know what to say. He doesn’t know if he should say anything, really.

Grian takes to the sky before Xisuma can finish their sentence.

It turns out Grian has had feelings for Scar for a while but didn’t know because the watchers modified his code to suppress romantic feelings. Luckily Xisuma notices and fixes his code but now Grian’s being hit with years worth of pent-up pining and, understandably, panics a bit.
