Losing flight means losing your life when you're an elytran.
Their body immediately shuts down if they can't fly for prolonged periods of time.
A few weeks? It's fine, they can still bounce back, they just kinda go in hibernation until they can fly again - which is why community is so important.
If they can't fly for more than a month, it's always best to pick them up yourself and get them in the sky. It can trick their brain into thinking they're flying, and buy them some time.
More than a month is risky. it can mean death. It often does.
Mumbo thought it was a good idea to keep Grian on the ground after he broke his wings.
It wasn't.
Mumbo almost lost his boyfriend, the hermits almost lost a friend, and the world almost lost that Ray of sunshine that is Grian.
He Flatlined. For 4 minutes.
Thank God some hermits know medicine.
The thing is, Mumbo wasn't wrong either. Grian shouldn't have been flying, not whilst his wings were so injured. And Grian didn't communicate his needs, so Mumbo had no idea.
A lot of conversations should have been had, but what's done was done. Now they have to handle the fallout. Mumbo throwing himself into his designs, terrified of confrontating what he's done. Grian still recovering, getting better by the day but afraid of how he's hurt Mumbo.
The hermits will help them figure it out. After all, they're only staying apart because they're so worried they hurt the other. It was a miscommunication, two people trying to do the best for each other. They'll make it through this, the hermits know they will.

Completely random thought- everyone always says „oh, Grian never left the desert“. And while they’re not wrong, they also kind of are. Neither Grian OR scar ever left that desert. The only difference is that scar never left monopoly mountain, while Grian never left that bloody cactus ring.

This isn't for the theme I just thought it was cute
Moth hybrid Mumbo's neck fuzz poofing up when he's flustered
~🪶
Because of his tie, it just ends up creating a very strange ring of fluff poking out the top, whilst the lower half puffs his suit jacket up until you can barely see his face.
Grian finds it equally hilarious and adorable. Whether it's him or another hermit, they're all delighted to see it.
