3rd Person POV

Xisuma knocks on the door, peaking his head in the room, "Scar? Grian? You two doing ok?"

"Yep, we're doing ok X, how are you?"

"I'm ok, is Grian ok?"

"Yeah, he fell back asleep just a bit ago but he's feeling better."

"That's good, do you want me to bring you guys dinner?"

"Food would be great right now."

"Ok, I'll go get that, can you wake G?"

"Yep."

Xisuma smiles and heads to the kitchen to get them food.

"Grian, you need to wake up."

"Noooo."

"Come on birdie, you need to eat some food."

"But sleep," He cuddles closer to Scar, relaxing in the warmth, "And cuddles."

"We can still cuddle but you need to sit up and eat, please?"

The parrot sits up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"What's for dinner?"

"Sandwiches' ok? Cub said to eat something easy on the stomach."

"That works, thanks Xisuma."

"Of course, Grian how are you feeling?"

"I'm ok..."

"You can tell me anything, you know that right?"

"Yeah, I know..."

He sighs, setting the food on the night stand, "Let me know if you need anything, ok?"

"We will, make sure you rest too X."

"I will."

"....Xisuma."

"Yeah G?"

"...I...I'm a...I'm sorry about what happened."

"It's ok Grian, it wasn't your fault and I don't care what you say its not your fault. You had no idea they would come to Hermitcraft."

"...I did, X I knew they would come for me....it was only a matter of time before they found me."

"...Why would they come for you?" 

Scar runs a hand through Grian's feathers to calm him down, "Its ok birdie, you're ok."

"...I'm a Watcher."

"I was kind of hoping you wouldn't say that."

Grian looks down at the bed, waiting to be kicked out.

"We'll just have to make sure they can't get back in then."

"W-what?" He looks up at Xisuma.

"We'll have to strengthen the code, make sure they won't be able to get back in."

"You...you aren't kicking me out?"

"No, of course not."

"B-but I'm a Watcher, you're all in danger with me here."

"The only thing we're in danger of is being caught in your pranks."

"Besides, Mumbo and I wouldn't let them kick you out."

Grian smiles up at Scar.

"We can talk about it later, ok? Right now you two eat and rest."

"Are Impulse, Tango, and Bdubs ok?"

"They're doing just fine. Zed is fussing over the two while Bdubs is trying to escape Etho."

"That's good, is everyone else ok?"

"Yes, everyone is ok, your friends are still here too."

"They are?"

"Yep, they refuse to leave until they know you're ok."

"Sounds like Timmy." Grian carefully gets up.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"If Jimmy and Martyn won't leave until they know I'm ok then I'm going to go tell them. They need to go home and rest too."

"Should you be walking?"

"I'm fine, no injuries."

"Just because Cub couldn't find anything doesn't mean you aren't hurt."

"I'll be quick."

Grian leaves the room and the other two sigh.

"What are we going to do with him Scar?"

"I don't know, he's going to be the death of me, again."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You know, Scott's going to go crazy if you don't get home soon Timmy."

The blonde looks around, finding the Watcher sitting on a tree branch.

"I'm surprised you were let out of the house."

"They couldn't stop me if they wanted to. Where's Marytn?"

"Talking to Ren."

"Thank you for your help Jimmy, I know I make fun of you all the time but I do appreciate you."

"Grian are you going soft?"

"Wha- no!"

"You are! You do care about me."

"Nope, I take it back! That's the last time I ever try to be nice to you."

"Awww G man, I love you too."

"Gross, nope goodbye."

"Wait till I tell Joel."

"Don't you dare!"

"Do you two have to be so loud?"

"Martyn guess what Grian just told me!"

"What?"

"He said-"

Purple ropes wrap around Jimmy, covering his mouth.

"Grian, leave the poor boy alone."

"I like him better when he's quiet."

"Let him go."

Timmy glares up at Grian as the ropes disappear, "That was rude."

"You wouldn't stop talking."

"Ok you two, enough of that, why are you in a tree G?"

"I'm a parrot where am I suppose to be? The mountains?"

"Yeah yeah, how are you feeling?"

"Drained but that's because of how much magic I've used."

"Will you be ok if we leave?"

"Yeah, don't worry about me."

"Ok ok, keep an eye on Tango for me?"

"I will."

"See you later G!"

"Bye guys."

The Listeners disappear and Grian heads back to base, finding Scar outside waiting for him.

"There you are."

"What are you doing out of bed?"

"We're doing a family movie night, you wanna join?"

"Yeah, lets go."

The two head inside, sitting on the couch.
