An assortment of Grian appearance headcanons I’ve had on my mind lately!
(Obligatory mention that I’m talking about Grian the character and not Grian the youtuber, here’s your confirmation that this is not about real life guy Grian minecraft whose appearance is well documented, but rather it is about his minecraft roleplay character who is made out of pixels and blocks and whose appearance is very much up for discussion)
His eyes are that shade of brown that’s so dark it looks black
He wears glasses, and through experience he has learned that unless he wants to be replacing them about once a month he needs them to have a thick and sturdy frame
Grian has a whopping case of adhd and is extremely good at misplacing his belongings. His glasses are not exempt from this just because they help him see, and he has managed to lose every single pair he owns several times. At some point one of his friends (I'm leaning Pearl or Jimmy) got tired of hearing him complain about it, and got him a golden chain to keep them on. Grian pretends he’s just using it because it appeals to his love for shiny things, but in reality it actually helps him a lot and he would be very sad were he to lose it
Speaking of his adhd. This guy moves. He does not sit still, does not like to be doing nothing. He builds, he helps other hermits with stuff they don’t have time to do, and he is well known to do Grindy tasks. And you know what that means? Grian is strong. In fact, Grian is buff
This is related to some hybrid stuff I’ll get more into in a sec, but very specifically, Grian is a flyer and those natural wings need a lot of muscle around them to work. That means a lot of upper body strength, especially in the pectoral region. Yes, I said gritty rights.
I wish I could remember what artist originally drew Grian’s waffle as an undercut with a pattern because I love that headcanon so much. He varies what the rest of his hair looks like (he has a manbun in season 9) but the undercut stays no matter what
Tangentially, the reason Mumbo now has a waffle as well is that his hair just grows in that shape now. He has extremely specific alopecia, and it is unclear whether or not Grian is the same or if he just prefers to keep his hair that way.
Grian has clear and visible bald patches in his eyebrows. This is a product of him having had TNT blow up in his face one too many times, resulting in the follicles having been damaged
Along a similar vein, he is also missing somewhere in the realm of 1-3 fingers total on his hands
I don’t think of Grian as someone who is very particular with his hair or with stuff like makeup. Most days he’ll do the bare minimum of combing his hair to look presentable and that’s it
That said, he loooooooves shiny jewellery, and his wardrobe is by far the largest on the server. Due to aforementioned constant moving he need things that are practical to move in, but other than that he has no rules on what goes in there. You’ve got sequinned mini skirts next to permanently dirt-stained overalls next to rainbow bucket hats. This guy has it all.
He does sometimes wear a red sweater, but I am going to say something controversial here, guys. Look at that man's shirt. Look at that cleavage view. He’s wearing a v-neck
Okay so hybrid headcanons. I have several, mutually exclusive ideas here, but I will go with one I think is, frankly, very underutilised: gryphon hybrid Grian!
Want avian Grian for all of the historically present bird coding? Also want to acknowledge the fact that he has so much mischievous cat energy? Gryphon Grian! He’s half bird, half cat, half human, and all menace.
There are a couple of different bird species I think he could be.
House sparrow, for the noise levels, the tendency to travel in a pack, and the sheer gremlin energy these little bastards exhibit outside of my kitchen window on a daily basis.
I think he could definitely be some kind of corvid too. Maybe a magpie? Beautiful plumage (fight me), incredibly intelligent and likely to make that your problem, and with a call that lends itself very well to Grian’s screech-laughter
You all know my opinions on potoo Grian. It works, okay? Look into his horrible, haunted eyes, you know it to be true.
For a season 10 fisherman arc Grian I am very much leaning towards an oriental darter. There’s just something about the idea of Grian spearfishing for mending books, and sulking in the sun to dry his wings when he only catches fish that I enjoy very much
Owl for his cursed head movements
Okay so wings talk time! I headcanon that naturally avians simply do not have wings strong enough to fly with. They’re too short, and even for someone like Grian who flies A Lot the musculature to support a humanoid frame just isn’t there. That said, elytra are easily modified to function as a sort of wing extension/prosthetic, that allows them to gain much more power for less energy expended.
You would think, with me being the owner of three cats, that I would have some kind of idea for a specific breed of cat he might be. The thing is, my family have historically always kept the same breed (Norwegian forest cat mix c: ), so I know very much about those and no other cat breeds. He is simply cat :)
Biiiiig naughty tortie vibes. My sources for this is I have one of the latter and she is the same level of Problems a Grian
This is the little madam caught in the act of doing something dastardly. She commits one hundred crimes every single day and we love her. Tell me that is not big Grian vibes right there. You can't, right? he is a naughty tortie
Other Grian hybrid options I also like: avian, watcher, robot!!, cod, enchanted armour stand come to life!, and fey!Grian

Mistletoe Kisses meme || accepting
@countlessrealities sent; ❗ : My Rick ambushes your Rick under a mistletoe [[ bc ofc they have to do the idiot edition xD ]]
Standing there, drinking some eggnog, Rick hardly noticed the special plant that hung just above him. It's not like he cared. The tradition was only meant as an excuse to get kisses from his boyfriend. And he didn't see him around at the moment.
Which was odd because usually he could. He loved to stare at him from across the room. Just watching him interact with the family and their friends who decided to stop by. The way his counterpart moved and talked, it lit up something within himself. Something warm and bright.
Suddenly hands on his shoulders brought him out of his thoughts. He felt his body turn forcibly towards his counterpart. There he was. That smirk matching the one on his face. As if they both knew where this was going.
"Finally came for your kiss, huh?" He whispered, feeling himself walk backwards.
His back hit against the wall. It didn't matter if they were still under the mistletoe or not. What mattered was them, in this moment, sharing something special.
Both of his hands cradled that jaw, as they met in the middle. The kiss was slow but heated. His tongue slid through after just a couple of nips to that bottom lip.
He breathed him in. Savoring every moment of this. He didn't even care where he had dropped the eggnog. It could be pooling on the floor for all he cared. The only thing he could think about was his counterpart, Rick.
Breaking away from the kiss, he kept his eyes closed. "Mm, damn, y-you taste so fucking sweet, I-I wonder what else about you tastes fucking sweet~" And if he would use this as an excuse to ditch the family and go mess around with his counterpart, then that would be the perfect ending to this night.

Does Lysithea have any unique lines during the “House Ordelia's trying to rebel again, time to take some inspiration from Daddy I and destroy it once more” mission? I know she has no reaction when Claude pulls an Ionius and crushes any Leicester Houses that try to quit in GW, but there's no way the writers would be ballsy enough to just have Lysithea not react at all to Edelgard quelling a rebellion started by her own house.
Also lol at the “the Three Hopes datamine is unfinished, buggy and won't be receiving any updates” warning message; guess even the people on that site don't like the game enough to spend significant time datamining all of it's dialogues
Lys ?
Being relevant to the plot when she can be called a child again and express her love for sweets ??
Are we talking about the same Lys ?
I didn't check everything yet, but of course she wouldn't have a line about this, else she'd be more interesting as a character, and the Fodlan games don't want that, instead please focus on the uwu cute girls from GW.
I wasn't expecting a thing from Lys in Fe16 to begin with (there's a line after the Solon reveal where she suggests she knows more than she says, but refrains from saying a thing... After civilians were foddered and her classmate exsanguinated...) so it's no surprise that her nopes paralogue with Hapi and Supreme Leader about visiting one of Cornelia's labs ends up with :
