Summary
How Grian cleaned his wings was an enigma even to himself. It was hard to tell if they were actually "wings" in the normal sense considering how he got them, and then there was the fact that there was no guessing what could happen if others figured out how they came to be as well. It didn't matter, though, because Mumbo was a great friend who covered Grian's back by using that freaky brain of his to help solve everything.
Too bad Grian's little girl was simultaneously a little shit who liked to cause problems. Like father like daughter, he supposed.
(AKA a 5+1 fic where five times Grian has "no choice" but to ask the others for help, and one time he... decides he kind of does.)

The art of taking care of others (and the unconventional methods that come with it) by MayuriPng

Summary
Xisuma is always tired.
Well, in X’s humble opinion, the sleep deprivation came with being a good, competent admin. His job is to (quite literally) make sure all of the hermits were healthy, happy, and not scheming chaos, especially when it came to Grian. Thing is, that also meant updating the firewalls and communicators, making sure that the respawn mechanic was working flawlessly, fixing various bugs that conveniently appeared in the middle of the night…yeah, he should stop talking if he doesn't want others to worry about his health. Point is, he’d do anything to make sure that all his friends were physically and mentally okay.
Which included playing dirty.
-----
Or: 5 times Xisuma was a hypocrite while also being a worried dad, and one where people finally caught up on what was happening.Series

Summary
After Tango bans the saturated soups and honey bottles from the lobby of his decked out game, Xisuma, Cub, Stress, Grian, and Scar start mixing soups and potions for the pure curiosity of it! Too many combinations and techniques that make each batch of concoctions unique leads to endless exploration, and it seems like with every twist they put on a recipe, the entire thing flips around. More dangerous soups and potions like weakness or poison are handled with care, and everything is going smoothly... until they try to be a little more efficient with their materials and time, and accidentally get a little more careless.
It's a problem of too many cooks in the kitchen, and unfortunately, there are 2 types of grey colored base potions known. Xisuma mixes the wrong one with his experiment.
Xisuma drinks a Bad Soup. He blacks out.
"And uh, one more question..." Xisuma asked. "Who are you?"
Very bad indeed.

Summary
She showed up at Kris’s door with her hood up and her tail twitching, smelling like smoke that wasn’t hers. She had one of her mother’s old flannels tied around her waist, the sleeves long and dragging. Kris didn’t ask. Just stepped aside.
Toriel, from the kitchen, poked her head out and said only: “Shoes off, dear. I just mopped.”
Like Susie belonged there.
Like she wasn’t a guest anymore.
Kris gave her the couch and curled up on Chariel. Susie protested, at first—“It’s your damn house, dude,” she said, “I can sleep on the floor, I’ve done it before”—but Kris was already half-buried in blankets and completely silent, which meant the conversation was over.
At some point, when the house had gone completely quiet and the shadows settled, Susie whispered:
“Hey.”
Kris shifted their head to look at her.
The moonlight caught her hair, the jagged edge of her teeth. Her eyes were clearer than they ever were at school. No posturing. No sneer. Just Susie. Bare and real in a borrowed T-shirt, her knees pulled up, her voice a rasp.

Summary
But in the morning, all of the thoughts from the night before were gone. All of the stars and the inky black were gone, and all that was left was Scar's huge hands gripping him close and his leg between Scar's thighs and his nose pressed into Scar's shoulder. All of him surrounded by all of that, and the unfortunate feeling that he'd never been so fucking close to something he wanted while also nowhere near it.
The grip on him was tight, and Grian whispered, "Let me go."
or, Grian doesn't want to let Scar close

Summary
Among the crimson mess on the floor, a twinge of bright yellow could be seen. Scott leaned closer, picking apart the small pile until he could pick up the small yellow petal. He had never seen one before, at least never when he thought about him (thinking of him without a name usually stopped the flowers).

Summary
The Watchers weren’t quite satisfied with how Secret Life played out, so they’ve decided to mix things up a bit. The players they had chosen had gotten far too comfortable with the games, so they needed to do something to change that. All the while plotting to get back one of their own.
Meanwhile Grian discovers just how little control he has over the games, how easily players can be turned against one another, and how persistent the past is to repeat itself. Not to mention just how much his own worldview differs from the truth.

Summary
“Alright.” Joel had been quiet since the mention of the watchers, and when he spoke now he sounded tired. “So, the Watchers took us all and dumped us on a random server with no clear way to leave, is that about right? And we have life game mechanisms in place.”
“Sounds about right.” Grian nodded wearily.
“Well, fine. All we need to do is be careful and not die, yeah? Seems simple enough. Just focus on staying safe, gearing up, and trying to get home. And the admins will surely be looking for us.”
Grian looked around at the birch clearing, then up at the sky, sun blazing overhead. “I mean, it sounds fine in theory… but these are the Watchers we’re talking about. Who knows why they sent us here. And surely they have some sort of trick up their sleeve.”OR,
Twelve players find themselves stuck on an island filled with unknown mobs and life-game mechanisms. How are they gonna get themselves out of this one?

Summary
Twenty-six hermits, scattered through the universe.
Grian has a problem, and it’s in the form of secrets he never planned on letting go of being yanked out by the roots. Tango has a problem, and it’s called Grian and secrets he’s kept. Impulse, Etho, and Mumbo have problems as well, from being caught in the middle of fracturing friendships to revealing the genocide of your entire race to the aftermath of stealing your best friend’s soul. (Scar and Pearl fall along unexpected sides, while Skizz falls back on his status of not actually a Hermit.)
Back on Season Seven in the wake of the fall of Season Eight, seven Hermits and some unexpected guests shatter along faultlines on the journey to return to twenty-six.
