I started watching Evo SMP. I still don't fully understand the lore but I at least know some of the watcher/listener concepts.

Watcher!Grian and Listener!Martyn designs :D
Small details I want to point out:
Martyn’s wings are Ender Dragon wings! Don’t really have a reason for giving him them, I just thought they looked nice
Grian’s Hermit wings are parrot ones, his Watcher wings are more equivalent to raven/crow wings
Grian’s eyes are covered in his Watcher design, but visible in his Hermit design, meanwhile Martyn’s mouth isn’t visible in either design :) Take from that what you will
The key around Grian’s neck is just from his shops on HC. Whether it’s the entity, Grain Train, or whatever/ whatever season I’m inserting him in, the key is just to that specific shop
Had a lot of fun coming up with these! Will probably do more, I think Pearl is next on my list to draw 👀

Take some Grian and Martyn watcher/listeners that I was using as a lighting practice. There was a bit of a gap between when I drew them which is why they look different to eachother. This isn’t really meant to follow any particular cannon/headcannon just for fun

Yeah, I'm a missing link of this illusion I am not really here, I'm an intrusion I don't swim or sink, I just float I don't need gravity, I just need growth
Tumblr hates gifs oh well. Stills under the cut for infinitely better quality.

Limited Life Finale spoilers
Martyn who remembers what happened in 3rd Life.
Martyn who watched what Impulse and Scott were trying to set up and remembered Bdubs and Scar and Grian.
Martyn who remembers the pain of betrayal as only two were left standing.
Martyn who remembers green and yellow and red red red as the pain of grief wafted through the air as Grian and Scar fought.
Martyn who remembers watching Grian throw himself off the edge of the cliff to escape the pain the loneliness the grief of what he'd done being drawn out so so long–
Martyn who pierces his partner in the back (and doesn't see the smile of pride on Scott's face) and chases Impulse down to just get it over with.
And when Martyn blinks himself awake, it is him who is pulled into a bone crushing hug as he hears the tinkling laughter of Scott, cheering for his success.
It is Martyn who glances around and sees Pearl smiling at him, congratulating him on his win and jokingly lamenting that it was him of all people who won.
It is Martyn who looks higher and sees Grian, something like sadness in his eyes, like sympathy, but with a congratulations of his own and a sweeping gesture to the world around them.
To the other players.
To the Listeners, who Martyn isn't sure Grian can truly see.
To the Watchers, who Martyn himself can barely perceive.
Martyn, who has won the fourth game.

fresh new watcher/listener headcanon: they do better when the opposite sense is completely taken out of the picture
like u give a watcher noise-cancelling headphones and suddenly they gain a +14 to perception, they see Every Detail and can see up to like a billion miles away from where they're standing, everything that makes up everything down to the molecule if they squint, in a fight they're so good at tracking how their opponent swings and makes the smallest, most minute of eye movements that it basically looks like they're predicting their opponent's movements just from analysing what they're already doing down to an insane degree. all you gotta do to make a listener unable to hear you is, well, not talk. that aint gonna work here. you're communicating through body language and overly-expressive looks? the watchers read it like its (very literally) its own language. reading lips is a breeze. passing notes in the back of the class ain't gonna work here.
on the other hand, give a listener a blindfold and they become acutely aware of the Exact BPM of Everyone Within A Billion Mile Radius. watchers, when they are not using their ability to literally see everything everywhere all at once, can be hidden from. you plant yourself behind a big enough tree and you're damn near invisible. hiding from a listener in this state is impossible. both literally and figuratively- give a listener a blindfold and make 'em interrogate someone, they're able to hear every vocal inflection, every hesitation, every cutoff, and will probably instantly know whether youre lying or not. their fighting style becomes completely reactive- with a fast enough reaction time (and lets be real theyre mildly immortal pseudo-gods, their reaction time is fast enough) they can hear the sound of an arrow cutting through the air and dodge it without even looking. they can catch blades on their own weapons and are the master of side-stepping out of the way when someone tries to stab them from behind like the cool kids they are
i feel like if you pitted them in a fight against each other, they'd be insufferable to one another but absolutely enthralling to watch from the outside. i'd like to think that watchers are very formal, since they have that whole lawful evil type nonsense going on, so the way they fight is very by-the-books, won't break rules, fights like they're being scored type beat. on the other hand, listeners are, again, purely reactive. they are impulse-driven chaos mongerers, and thus they fight dirty. below the belt? low-hanging fruit? sounds good to them. they'd go for an easy shot in the Nether region, if you know what i mean (jimmy and grian are exceptions; they purposely act the opposite of what they're meant to because they're sort of just Like That tbh)
but yeah, they'd be SO annoying to one another. the watcher keeps having to parry the listener's bs blows (which annoys the listener to no end because the POINT of those shots is that you DON'T SEE THEM COMING!!), keeps trying to land hits but is evaded at the exact last second, probably on purpose just to make the watcher mad. like, the listener hears the sword coming at them from a mile away but doesn't dodge until the last possible moment just so the watcher can see how small a distance they missed by. but then the listener tries to make shots of their own and they're blocked halfway through the swing. the listener barely even comes close to hitting them because the watcher is predicting the damn future or something stupid like that, making it impossible for them to do anything unless they move like an absolute maniac so the watcher can't predict them. similarly, the only way the watcher can land anything is by exclusively using fake-outs, which just feels wrong.
honestly, i'm imagining a spar between martyn and pearl like this. they're so silly i think they would lightheartedly get on each other's nerves in this way until the fight is abruptly ended by pearl kicking martyn in the nether because yes, she fights by the rules, and it was a spar with no rules so. hey. fair game.

So more lore has been dropped thanks to Martyn on stream the other day. He said that nobody except Grian is a watcher, and Grian left them. According to Martyn, Grian left the watchers after 3rd life.
What if he was instructed to do the games. He was told to orchestrate this death game for all of the people he cared about, and his response was no. So they forced him to play the game himself, which only made him bond more with those he was only meant to watch. And when he won 3rd life, he was so distraught over being forced by everyone, especially the watchers, to kill his partner instead of both of them winning, that when he returned to the watchers he refused to help them again. He left. But they still are controlling everything, and now there is no voice for the players among them, and that’s why they pushed Grian and Scar together again in DL, was because they essentially were saying “look at him. This is what you traded us for. Now you have no choice but to be with him again, to remind you of your decision” and Grian did not want to appease the watchers and he wanted to keep Scar out of it, so he went to BigB.
Someone who knows about the watchers. Someone who was on EvoSMP. Someone who understood.
I believe that he still has his powers (as shown by boogeyman rolling and time dealing) and is by all means of technicality still a watcher, but he does not agree with the watchers and what they are doing. They feed off negative emotions, and he does not agree with that. He is essentially just acting as an independent player who happens to be a watcher right now. Martyn also mentioned a group called “Speakers” but no further info was given on that subject. I’m fairly sure he also said there are no canonical listeners in the series. Jimmy was also asked “Jimmy do you think they are still watching” in a stream, and he was at first confused “what do you mean?” but then realized what the fan was asking and replied “oh…you mean the watchers?”, so Jimmy knows that they control the series, he knows they are watching them. I think BigB, Pearl, Grian, Martyn, and Timmy all know that the watchers are pulling the strings, and they choose to either acknowledge it (Martyn) not confirm anything (Grian & Timmy) or just not mention it (Pearl & BigB).
TL; DR: Martyn said Grian left the watchers after 3rd life, but I think he is still a watcher, just acting independently.
