Using my platform for a non-Joel Hermit for a moment
[edit: he changed it to "Manifeting Mending" which actually yes is even better! Also further reading says yes, people have just started saying 'manifest destiny' to mean 'achieve my goals' or whatever, he didn't pick a random phrase, he tried to sound hip like the kids]
Grian's episode title was "Manifest Destiny", which was a VERY BAD United States policy/idea to justify American Imperialism and... check out the wikipedia link above for more.
Grian fixed his episode title in less than an hour. Thanks Grian!
It's very easy for posts to go viral and for corrections to be missed, and as an American who did quite a bit of US history in school a person, I really appreciate Grian promptly fixing this. <3

I like the idea of grian needing glasses to see properly.
He's just a lad who wore glasses in yhs, and looked overall harmless
But maybe Sam accidentally destroyed his during ts, so he needed to squint all the time, unintentionally making himself look more threatening (esp with a gun💀)
Hermit!grian got new glasses, but every time he takes them off, he looks intimidating once more

Ya’know those fics where you shove a bunch of the same characters from different AUs in a room just to see what would happen?
Yeah, I wanna see that with Grian so badly
Like every version of Grian ever
Hermit Grian, Yhs Grian, Evo Grian, Grian from any of the life series, MCC Grian, Ariana Griande, NPC Grian, and maybe even Cuteguy, etc. etc.
Like, please, I want this so much-

NEW THOUGHT NEW THOUGHT
ok ok so, you know how when you get stressed it’s harder to keep calm and and shit?
What if Grian gets more watcher-like when he gets stressed
if we run with the “the watchers are evil and he ran away” thought process, then it would make sense that he would have anxiety whenever he thought of them
Then he would start having more watcher features show up; his eyes/wings turn purple, he gets more eyes, etc
and with those showing up, he’d get more anxious and get more features, turning into a spiral of he can’t calm down until he isn’t in his watcher form, and he can’t get out of watcher form until he calms down
even if we go with the “the watchers aren’t evil, just chaotic fucks/ overbearing parents and Grian left just cuz he wanted to” it still works
It works because Grian would be afraid of how the other hermits would react
he has no idea if they know what a watcher it, if they’ve met one before, or their opinions on them
so he’d be afraid of scared or disgusting his new friends just for what he is
thus the spiral again
Maybe eventually the other hermits start to find out, by either he tells them or they walk in on him in the midst of a spiral
Pearl would know by the time she showed up -cuz she is a watcher-
none of them would really mind, I think at most Scar would be mock offended Grian didn’t tell him sooner, and then go into a million questions
but even after they all know, he still get anxious when he starts to turn, so he has really good control of his emotions
Credit to this amazing cosplay for the inspiration

It's times like these, when Grian refers to snails as molluscs and gastropods, that I remember he has a degree in marine biology. In retrospect this makes the fishing arc funnier I think.

please please please give me writing advice
i know my writing sucks, i’m working on it
both are grian centered
first is about watchers and an au i got off tik tok, also it’s a one shot
second is a desert duo enemies to lovers hero/villain au (scars the hero, grian’s the villian) and is multi chapters
