Going Bird Brain/Instincts
Narrator POV
As the Hermits are watching, Dom and Taurtis give bird brain Grian attention that they thought for a second about if they should knock and ask if they could help.
“We should be truthful and say we heard what happened to them.” Mumbo stated quietly.
“Then what would we say after that, we decided that we should follow to see if they would be okay” Doc, who almost yelled that question but didn’t after realizing that the others would hear them.
“That’s exactly what we can say to them! Way to go, Mumbo and Doc” Xisuma praised them both for a random semi-good idea.
As the Hermits all started to walk away from the open window and head to the front door, they could still hear Grian’s cooing whenever one of the boys gave him attention. Once they reached the front door, Cub knocked on the door. They could hear Grian stop cooing and letting out a distress call for not knowing who was at the door.
“Dom, could you answer the door ‘cause you know how to deal with Sam if that’s him” Taurtis says with a little hesitation in his voice.
Dom starts to walk up to the door, until he hears Grian running towards the front door. It was too late by the time Dom and Taurtis called out to Grian because he was already opening the door. Dom and Taurtis froze as Grian jumped into the arms of the first person in front of the door.
Both of the parties froze when Grian first cuddled into Cub’s arms, once it went by them Scar started to hit Cub lightly because he wanted to hold Grian. Grian gave a look that said something along the lines ‘could I cuddle into his arms’.
Cub gave Grian to Scar and Grian cuddled right into Scar’s arms. Scar was giving off a lot of body heat, so the Avian tried getting closer to Scar. Both parties thought it was cute but Dom was still a little worried because he never met them.
“Ok, I will admit this is cute and all but why don’t you look worried Taurits. And who are you guys? Why does Grian have so much trust in these guys unlike Sam?” Dom questioned Taurtis but also the other Hermits.
“These are the people Sam let stay in the house but we didn’t get their names because we didn’t want to get into trouble with Sam.” Taurits answered.
“Could we have names and would you guys like to come inside and sit down, especially the one that is holding Grian,” Dom asked.
“Sure. I’m Xisuma, the one that is holding Grian is called Scar, Cub is the one that Grian jumped into, the one that looks like a Zombie is Cleo, the one with a mustache is Mumbo, the creeper hybrid goes by Doc, Iskall is the one that is currently by Scar being obsessed with Grian, the one that is by Cub and has a mask on is Etho, False is the one on my right and Joe is the one on my left. Sorry that we didn’t introduce ourselves to you before.” Xisuma, told the names and apologized.
“It’s fine. It’s clear you can be trusted because Grian doesn’t normally want to cuddle with strangers or go into their arms on his own at all.” Dom explained.
They continued to talk for a little bit longer until Grian decided that them talking was annoying and he wanted attention. So, when all of their focus was on him he started to coo at them for anyone to pat his head. The only four that understood what he wanted was Dom, Taurtis, Mumbo, and Scar which they all took turns giving him head pats.
“Hey Scar and Mumbo, how do you know he wanted head pats?” Taurtis question.
‘X, should we tell them?” Mambo questioned.
“Yeah, it would be easier for all of us.” X started to talk, “We are from the future and Grian is actually a player on my server, which he and some other hermits have not been teleport ed here.”
“Wait, Grian finally gets to safety. He won’t have to live here anymore. Do you know anything about what happens to us?” Dom was thankful but also asked a question.
“No, sorry. G doesn’t really like to talk about his past but every now and again he would leave the server for about a week or two and come back all happy.” X started to explain, “But now that I think about it, he probably goes to see you guys, maybe? Sorry we can’t really give you a straight answer.
“Thanks, we just wanted to know if G has a better life in the future.” Dom says.
As they continued to talk, they never realized that Grian was getting really good cuddles from Scar until they heard Grian coo really loudly. When they all looked at him they saw him curled up in Scar’s lap while getting head pats from both Scar and Iskall.
“Well aren’t you guys cute,” Doc started as he slowly walked towards them, “Aren’t you cute little birdie, hmm.” Doc says as he pats Grian’s head too.
Grian continued to coo and chirp under all the attention he was getting. One look at him and you could tell he was one happy bird hybrid. All of them were just glad to see their friend happy and looking all sad for, mostly Dom and Taurits.
They all started to go upstairs towards G’s room because he has the biggest room ‘cause of him having wings, the Hermits learned about him having the bigger only after going upstairs. Once they were in his room, Scat sat on the bed because he still had Grian in his hands, who fell asleep.
They all talked in whispers while Grian was sleeping so he didn’t wake up from the loud noise. After they were done talking, Dom went to get extra blankets and pillows for them all to sleep in the same room with Grian; to make sure nothing bad happens while it’s just Grian and Scar.
