Summary
He should have know it would happen, eventually. He was discovered, unmasked as a Watcher and sent away for the safety of the server. All of those living in Hermitcraft had any memories of him wiped, save a little ache in a soulmate's chest.
Now he watches, and protects, and yearns.

Summary
Finally, a piece clicked into place, and Martyn ceased his struggling. His jaw dropped.
“Grian?”
“There we go,” Grian whispered, grinning ever wider. “Now, you remember me.”
Martyn heard himself let out a breathy laugh, rife with disbelief. He stared at the other man and a twisted level of understanding settled over him. Out of all the people he’d encountered on his journeys, of course Grian would be the one he bumped into in a realm of immortal beings.

Datastream!Martyn glitches between worlds and accidentally melds with a version of himself that he never should have been able to meet. Only another god can make things right.

Summary
A street rat and an orphan, Martyn had been taken in by a coven of witches in the royal capital. They raised him, and he could probably make himself a wealthy man within the span of a few years if he stayed here, but even still, all he wanted was to get out of the city.
Then he could finally be alone. No longer having to dial his social skills up to 11 day in and day out as he frantically ran the crowded front for his teachers famous apothecary. He's finally proven himself worthy of being a full-fledged witch, earned his emblem, and now it's time for the journey to a remote village that's been seeking a witch of their own for a long time. Open his own apothecary and pass the days peacefully without the stress of the city's roar all around. Unfortunately, the roads are treacherous, and a young beautiful witch traveling alone was a coveted prize. Martyn has a plan, though.
Shame plans never turn out how they're supposed to.{In which Martyn wants to be left alone, Ren can't decide which mask he needs to wear, they're no strangers to the cruelty of the world, and this is the first day of something neither could have dared to hope for.}

Summary
Having been one of the earliest people "rescued" from the datastream, Ren has helped a lot of people to get used to their new bodies and the new sociaty. Some has trusted him more, some has trusted him less, and Ren can't fault anyone for that.
Spring is proving to be the most distrustful person Ren has met yet. Part of Ren itches to know why- but only time will tell. Right?

Summary
When the Listeners first contacted Martyn and Jimmy, back in the days of the Property Police, Martyn had assumed that they were better than the Watchers. More benevolent, perhaps. Not cruel as the Watchers had been.
Martyn has been with them since Last Life, and he's since revised his opinion on the goodness of the Listeners.
He knows, with a certainty, that they are far worse.

Summary
“Grian?” Scar asked, ignoring the shake in his voice.
“Yeah Scar?” Grian looked eager. Open. Gods, Scar missed that look.
“Can you cut my hair? Right now?” You could hear a pin drop in the room. Grian looked like he wanted to say something, but closed his mouth and nodded instead.
---
Scar returns to Hermitcraft as the only one to fully remember the experience of Third Life and Last Life with no magic able to sooth the rough edges of it. Even Grian, tied close to the gamemakers, remembered it like an echo of someone that wasn't him playing the game, and helped wipe most of the event from the others' mind upon request. Too bad Scar was a very special boy who's magic refused to let that settle in. He's perfectly okay though! No side effects from that whatsoever. The panic and fear were temporary, so there was no need to let anyone know about that slight issue. Now if he could only give himself a haircut so no one could have a handhold on him, that would be nice.

Summary
With a frustrated groan, Cleo buried her head in her hands, not for the first time questioning the sanity of her actions.
“You’re an impulsive fool,” she scolded herself. “Just look at the mess you’ve gotten yourself into.”
Unfortunately, neither the cave nor Martyn’s corpse offered any reassurance in return.
---
“I’m not asking for that,” Pyro pleaded. “I’m just asking to not be alone, Owen!"“You’re a vampire. You’ll always be alone. Best get used to it now.”
---
Scott sat perched on the edge of his place of rest, waiting.“Hello, Owen,” he greeted, tipping his head back and leaning his weight on his hands, peering up at the balcony where Owen stood. “Have you finally come to join me?”
---Cleo and Martyn are struggling in the woods; Scott and Owen are losing patience; Pyro and Apo are conflicted; M and Avid feel guilty.

Summary
It's a classic tale of love: Grian, a mer from the depths of the sea, makes a deal with a sea witch to exchange his voice for a pair of legs and go visit the human whose life he had saved. Only in this case, Grian is more interested in the sea witch than the human.
(If only someone had bothered to tell Scar, the sea witch in question, about this divergence).

The Breaking Point of a God by grey_cat_crozzing

Summary
Watchers were supposed to be worshipped. It’s their source of powers as minor deities, after all.
Grian, who wanted nothing more than to forget his Watcher past, was quite happy not to be worshipped at all. So when the Hermits collectively started praying to Xelqua and Grian started to gain a lot of Watcher magic, it put a real damper on his mood, health, self-perception and his relationships. With Mumbo gone off-world, it was now up to Scar, Pearl and Xisuma to worry about him – if Grian would let them. But Grian was nothing if not stubborn. He’d get through this alone, right?
..Right?

Sometimes it feels like no one even remembers that he was part of Last Life, like it was a dream all along and he’s just the unlucky one that didn’t forget.
Scar can’t help but wonder if maybe he’s the only one who’s torn up over what happened. Maybe it’s him who’s broken.
or; how Scar handles everything that happened in Last Life and starts to heal.
