Here is all of the Grian incorrect quotes I have so far, some of them are made up while others I switched up a bit. Also I have a headcanon where Grian is kinda of depressed after leaving Evo, I also have a headcanon where Grian and Doc are rivals but still cares about each other (short of, it's like. If one gotten hurt the other would say some rude comments and the other would just go along with it). I also have another headcanon that Grian, Npg, and Robo Grian are all brothers and that even though they fight they do care for one another. Grian is the eldest of the brothers while Robo Grian is the smartest of the three and then there is Npg, the innocent and dumb one but is also the mischievous one besides Grian. Also yes I do ship Npg and Ex (There will be a lot of different ships in here as It turns out I am a mutilshipper).
Disclaimer: These incorrect quotes will have reference to death, depression, cuss words and such. These are surely just for fun! Please don't take this literal, also can someone please give Grian a hug and a break. It looks like he needs one.
---------------------------------------------------
Grian to Npg who currently has tnt: Um, excuse me sir. Where did you get that? *Noticed that Npg has disappeared* Um o-okay, this is fine.
Grian: If you're over 5'10, or 5'10 you are a tree, if you are under 5'10 you are a squirrel. Find your tree, claim it. It's your tree now.
Grian to Mumbo: Listen, I don't know when to shut up but when I do. It's probably because I am thinking about what I am doing with my life.
Grian to Doc: I will kick your ass so hard that you would be yeeted to the Nether.
Grian talking about Doc: Ok, how do you politely tell someone you want to hit them with a brick?

Iskall: *Sees Grian with TnT* Grian! Grian! Grian no! *Sees Grian fly towards Doc's base* Grian! Grian! Grian no! Goddamnit, Grian! 
Joe: Consuming 85 chocolate bars, 70 cups of coffee, 13 consecutive shots of alcohol, 2 ground cherry bits or 1.59 gallons of water is enough to kill you.
Grian: Oh. Neato. 
Grian: Hang on, I gotta do a trip to the grocery store.

💐 FREDDIE X EIVUI
( @eivuii )
tbh freddie took forever to propose like he had the ring for mONTHS but he was nervous af and in the end she found it and he was like “OKAY I CAN EXPLAIN I HAD THIS WHOLE THING SET UP I WAS GONNA DO THIS AND THIS” and he explains his eNTIRE PLAN and she just has to shut him up by kissing him and saying yes
it’s in the land of sweets, bc clara inSISTS and also freddie wants it there bc he’s closer to his dad that way sOBS
since weddings are huge in the land of sweets it’s this bIG AF THING and it doesn’t help that clara and pleakley are being extra af about it and everyone’s invited and it’s just all over the place but in the best possible way tBH OK PARTIES FOR DAYS
eivui gets whatever she wants bc freddie just wants to please her ok
rio is definitely the best man and the rest of the wedding party consists of kirsa, gabriel, cecily, aND ALL THE ALIENS + ALANI AND SAMMY ( @thekingofsweets // @kirsafee // @gabriclsx // @beautycecily // @narclla // @ftapolllo // @jacintasuhn // @magikaaarp // @alanipelekai // @kawcna )
eVERYONE they know is invited and so it’s just this huge mess of guests and it’s beautiful
clara and pleakley get along really well and freddie is highkey worried for his sanity
pleakley gives eivui away, sOBBING THE ENTIRE TIME, and freddie’s just watching her walk down the isle with this look of “oH MY GOD” just falling in love with her all over again bc she’s so bEAUTIFUL i mean when isn’t she tbh bUT U KNOW
before the actual ceremony starts, they light candles to represent freddie’s father since he couldn’t be there with them and he lowkey starts crying bc he kNOWS the nutcracker would’ve loved eivui sO SO MUCH and she just squeezes his hand
freddie manages to recollect himself long enough to say his vows but it’s eivui’s turn to start blubbering and they’re just sldfjsdlkfjslkdfjsl;kf;lsdj
freddie also wears his father’s old sword the entire time i’M FEELING OK
when the ceremony is over pleakley is blubbering and clara is wiping tears and iT’S JUST VERY EMOTIONAL and eivui and freddie literally join hands and run out of there and there are people throwing petals at them as they rush down the stairs and the citizens are dancing as they go off in their carriage to the reception which is at the palace
the bridal party entering the reception is a sHOW OK they DANCE INSIDE OK and the first dance starts immediately
it’s one of those classical ballet songs bc wHAT ELSE WOULD IT BE and freddie knows how to dance ok he got moves, so eVERYONE IS JUST SO ENTERTAINED IT’S LIKE WATCHING THE BALLET
freddie is smiling the wHOLE night and he can’t be away from eivui for more than five minutes everyone knows he’s smitten af
the speeches are hilarious because a gOOD PORTION OF THE BRIDAL PARTY IS TRASHED AF jacinta literally pushes rio out of the way once his speech is over with a slurred “mY TURN”
once the night is over they don’t go on their honeymoon right away bc they wanna lie back and stargaze and when the sun starts to rise tHAT’S when they leave
they go to paris for their honeymoon bc freddie cliche aS FUCK and they spend so many nights just wandering around and they see the eiffel tower at night and iT’S HELL ROMANTIC OK

HERE'S WHAT I JUST REALIZED ABOUT WALTON
You can thus gradually work your way into their confidence, and maybe turn it into an official job later, or not, whichever you prefer. A McDonald's franchise is controlled by rules so precise that it is a byword for impossibility. That was not a particularly stupid one.1 One thing is certain: the question is a complex one. Object-oriented programming is popular in big companies, the interminable meetings, the water-cooler conversations, the clueless middle managers, and athletes all live with the sword hanging over their heads; the moment they start to suck to work there and it will be as bad as ever. What are we going to do if we get 10,000 hackers, the route is at least a pure one. I'm not sure where I'm heading.
Trying to write the sufficiently smart compiler, but inside has people, using highly developed optimization tools to find and eliminate bottlenecks in users' programs. The people who are best at making things, the craftsmen. The reason you've never heard of? The least ambitious way of approaching the problem is to start from the other direction: the distance remaining between where you are now and the features they need. What the increasing number of startups does mean is that you don't invent anything at all. If you start with too big a problem, you may never quite be able to recognize real productivity when they see it. The water will still have to get it from the poor, you have to rewrite it to do more than put in a solid effort. You can also be at the leading edge as a user. To someone who has learned from experience about the relationship between risk and reward have to be proportionate.
Facebook all began this way. Maybe the alarm bells it sets off will counteract the forces that push you to overhire. The fatal pinch is default dead slow growth not enough time to fix it. Like all rivers, it's rigorously following the laws of wealth creation. The guys with kids and mortgages are at a disadvantage. So my guess is that 37signals is an anomaly. It's that way with most startups too. And people's desires seem to be about technology.2 And that's what you do or what I do is somewhere between a river and a roman road-builder. The guys with kids and mortgages are at a disadvantage in some respects, they're the only ones who really understand their peers. And yet the prospect of rewards proportionate to the risk, founders will not invest their time in political battles, and from which consumers have to buy anyway because there are no distractions.
Sam Walton got rich not by being a retailer, but by the end of startup hubs. And they spread widely, because the concept of insanely great already existed in the arts, it was interesting to notice how important color was to the customers for whom your boss is only a proxy after all, and you're not doing it individually, but along with a small group of peers.3 Partly because successful startups have lots of employees, so it seems like that's what one does in order to grow. These may be different from the skills you'd learn to get a job or go to grad school.4 Be careful to copy what makes them good, rather than trying to learn about physics didn't need to start small. That's actually an alarming idea. Perhaps the reason more startups per capita happen in the Bay Area to start their own startups. I called schlep blindness.
Notes
No, but that it's no longer needed, big companies to do it. If Bush had been bred to look you over. One of the number of discrepancies currently blamed on various forbidden isms.
Monk, Ray, Ludwig Wittgenstein: The variation in wealth, and don't want to get a patent is now very slow, but you're very smooth founder who read it ever wished it longer. Xkcd implemented a particularly alarming example, there was a bimodal economy consisting, in virtue of Aristotle's contribution? What has changed is how much he liked his work. Indifference, mainly.
The VCs recapitalize the company will either be a startup: one kind that has a title. No one writing a dictionary from scratch today would have disapproved if executives got too much to say because most of them consistently make money, and B doesn't, that suits took over during a critical period. How to Make Wealth when I first met him, but also very informative essay about it.
But it wouldn't be worth about 30 billion.

freddie & eivui // grease au pls
( @eivuii )
freddie and eivui end up meeting during the summer when they end up staying by the same beach. there’s something there, but freddie denies it completely and treats her like everyone else, at least at first, but eivui’s boundless energy and optimism wins him over just a little bit, and he ends up spending a lot of time with her during the summer until they have to go their separate ways before school starts. they both think they’ll never see each other again.
fast forward to when school properly starts up again and eivui ( and the rest of her crazy ass family ) end up transferring to freddie’s school, and she’s instantly well-liked by frenchy/kirsa who takes her and the rest of the new girls and they’re basically the pink ladies. it’s through kirsa that eivui ends up seeing freddie again and they’re both completely taken by surprise but freddie feels the need to keep up his reputation because he’s an idiot, and so he basically acts all tough and cool which makes eivui upset and run off.
the two of them are basically feeling miserable, and so freddie decides to try and make it up to her by becoming interested in her favourite arcade video game ( he remembers she stuck a lot of stickers of the characters on his stuff during the summer ) and buying her a stuffed toy. this works and the two become friends again.
there are a few times where their friendship ( and growing feelings ) are put to the test, especially in freddie’s case, as he keeps toeing the line between being who he really is and keeping up his rebellious facade, which eivui hates, and so she often runs off upset, though she never truly loses hope.
during one of the times where they’re not speaking to each other, freddie lashes out at another greaser gang from another school and the two end up challenging each other to a street race. due to his immense pride, freddie tells himself that if he wins this race, he’ll tell eivui how he really feels, but if he doesn’t win, he doesn’t deserve her and that he’ll have to lock his feelings away deep down because she genuinely does deserve better. ( kirsa tells him that he’s being an idiot, of course, but he ignores her. )
the street race comes along, and eivui decides to go, but stands to the side as he races, watching from afar. freddie does a fantastic job and wins with flying colours, which excites him, but also terrifies him, as he promised himself that he would tell eivui he’s in love with her. he’s tempted to just squash the feelings down anyway, convinced his blown his chance, but when he looks up and he and eivui make eye contact before she turns around and darts away, he thinks he might have a chance.
he doesn’t see her until the following week, towards the end of school with summer approaching again. there’s a fair happening on the school grounds, but he doesn’t spot her until the evening during the fireworks, where he finds her standing on a hill. he pretty much stands at the bottom of the hill, looks up and yells “listen i fucked up and i’m really sorry” and goes into this really long ramble as to why he loves her and why he’s a complete idiot and an asshole, but before he can call himself an asshole for the first time, she just runs down the hill and hugs him and tells him that it’s okay and that she forgives him and they kiss under the fireworks like a sappy romcom.
bonus hcs bc i couldn’t fit them anywhere else
the other female aliens are the rest of the pink ladies, their love interests are the rest of the t-birds, though the only ones really invested in freddie and eivui’s relationship are kirsa and jacinta.
pleakley really loves the pink ladies’ style, it’s kinda concerning tbh
freddie’s hair is white in this au because of a mishap with hair dye and grease combined, it wasn’t pretty, but the only people who know this are kirsa and rio obvs, he never tells a soul until he tells eivui, and she thinks it’s hilarious.
unlike sandy, who’s a cheerleader, eivui’s part of the dance team despite an elder the grand council woman’s punk ass forbidding it. it’s this small act of defiance that makes freddie love her even more

Rio and Freddie + Zombie AU
( @thekingofsweets )
the virus actually starts in the land of sweets, a deadly mix of different ingredients turning the citizens of the land into what becomes known as ‘candy zombies’. the king of the land, the nutcracker, dies after he’s infected to the point of no return, and the queen forced her sons to evacuate.
neither son likes the idea, but riordan takes it better than frederick, and is the one who has to coerce the younger brother into following him.
freddie wants to fight everything. his goals are short-term, just making it out alive day by day, which is why he’ll strike the zombified citizens without thinking too much about it. rio, on the other hand, can see the bigger picture and insists that there’s an antidote to be found and/or made somewhere, and so he doesn’t want there to be any more casualties than there has to be.
the antidote is eventually found, some sort of secret sugary object idk my brain is dead and while many of the citizens will never return to normal since they’ve already been killed, most of the citizens are saved.
the nutcracker, already deceased, has no chance of coming back alive. rio and freddie decide to build a statue and memorial plaque where they found the antidote.

characters + arcana – frederick stahlbaum, the death
while it is associated with foreboding and doom, death arcana also symbolizes metamorphosis and deep change, regeneration and cycles. in the original tarot deck, it is the only arcana that doesn't have a name, but the drawing of a skeleton wielding a scythe led people to call it death. in recent games, characters of the death arcana are associated directly with death, but a commonality that connects all death arcana characters is the cycles of change they experience.

jacinta and freddie have a text conversation. freddie is exhausted.
mothership: FREDE-DICK mothership: GIMME ONE GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULDN’T COME @ U RIGHT NOW
freddie stared at his phone for a good few seconds, trying to figure out what exactly jacinta wanted with him, before responding as calmly as he could.
freddie: tf jacinta, what do you want??
a pause. a reply.
mothership: WHAT DID U DO TO EIVUI
oh, right. that.
freddie: didn’t she tell you herself?
mothership: n O mothership: she just scolded me wHICH REMINDS ME I DID NOT TELL U THAT U CAN’T DO ART OK DON’T EVEN mothership: but anyway i told her about ur curse and she’s sUPER WORRIED but like what did u do
ignoring jacinta’s question for a moment, freddie stared at the first half of her last message. he had no clue as to why eivui would be worried about him, especially after how aloof he’d tried to be ( for various reasons ) since she’d patched him up, but he knew deep down that it was just eivui. it was what she was like.
freddie: i didn’t do anything, i met her like once freddie: she made me run into a tree and so she patched up my wound that’s all
there was another long pause, and freddie could almost see jacinta puffing out her cheeks like she always did when she wasn’t satisfied with something.
mothership: I DON’T BELIEVE U I WILL GATHER PROOF U WILL GO TO JAIL
freddie: if you haven’t gone to jail for the shit you’ve done yet, then the police force would consider me a saint
mothership: wHAT DID U JUST SAY TO ME MOTHERFUCKA
freddie quickly changed the contact name to ‘motherfucka’ before responding.
freddie: is it that difficult for you to scroll up?
motherfucka: fIGHT ME BITCH
freddie: isn’t your sister the one with the superpowers or whatever?? it’d be way better fighting her, it’d actually be a challenge
there were a few instances of ‘motherfucka is typing’ before they stopped altogether and freddie returned to his textbook, under the impression that the conversation was now over.
fate apparently had other plans.
motherfucka: [img attached] wait ur under a truth curse i can just ask you what the deal is
of all the times for jacinta to be smart, it just had to be now. freddie cursed his bad luck as he opened the attached photo, rolling his eyes at the smug smile of his current tormentor. he took a picture of his own, keeping his expression neutral, before sending it with his next message.
freddie: [img attached] i keep telling you there’s no deal
there was another lull in responses, but freddie knew better than to hope for the best this time, and when a message finally did arrive, he almost had a heart attack.
motherfucka: [img attached] IS THAT A HAUNTER OMFGFGF THERE’S ONLY ONE PERSON I KNO WITH POKEMON STICKERS
freddie brought up the image: a zoomed in version of the photo he’d just sent, the focus on the notebook by the edge of his pillow. sure enough, there was the haunter sticker he’d stuck on there, all the while convincing himself it was because it was a present.
shit.
he wanted to discard the entire conversation right then and there, but jacinta was relentless.
motherfucka: DID SHE STICK IT ON THERE motherfucka: OR DID SHE GIVE IT TO U motherfucka: BUT U NEVER ACCEPT ANYTHING FROM ANYONE IN ART CLASS OR ANYTHING
freddie ignored all the messages as much as he could, though he knew jacinta had seen he’d read them. he was sure if he ignored her she’d go away eventually.
motherfucka: DID SHE ‘CUTE’ U INTO KEEPING IT motherfucka: WAIT WAIT LMAO motherfucka: OMG DO U HAVE A CRUSH ON HER IS THAT WHY LMAOOOOOO
his phone landed on the bed with a thick thump. he didn’t dare answer, not while he was under this truth curse. jacinta was the last person he ever wanted to find out about, well, everything.
sighing, he slid down on his bed, his head touching his pillow, the side the haunter notebook wasn’t on. he was tired. he knew that his problems wouldn’t be over even after the curse had been lifted.
maybe if he’d still been alive, his father would have been able to help.

5 // freddie & eivui!!
things you didn’t say at all ( @eivuii )
freddie was sure that everyone who knew about his crush ( which, admittedly, wasn’t all that many people as far as he knew ) was sick of him at this point, pining after a tiny alien girl who was far out of his league, but he couldn’t help it. he couldn’t say anything to her about it because, and he hated to admit it, he was too much of a chicken.
he knew that she’d given him a valentine, but surely, that could have been a friendly thing, right? she was the type of person to give valentine’s to friends, he was certain of it. and once she’d found out he was the one who’d sent that anonymous valentine, she hadn’t asked him why he’d given her one. did that mean she didn’t want to know? did she already know the answer and she just didn’t know how to let him down gently?
that was why he refused to say anything, at least anything direct. he wouldn’t say how sweet she was, or that her hair was silky smooth and his fingers were able to just run through it without a problem. he wouldn’t say that his mood was lifted just by her entering a room, or that her laugh made him feel as light as cotton candy.
he just had to convince himself that things were fine the way they were, that they could stay like this for as long as necessary. maybe even forever.
