I don't think evil xisuma would ever come out as non binary. I think they would be bothering xisuma one day while he's trying to make some stupid farm and they would say to him You know it's funny how all these hermits assume I'm a man just because you are one. They didn't even ask me. Bit inconsiderate, isn't it. and xisuma would say Huh. I never thought about that. Um. Well. Are you a man? and evil x would say Not really. so xisuma's like. Oh okay. well are you... a.. woman? and evil x says No. and xisuma's a little bit lost at this point so he says alright. well. do you want me to ask everyone to not... call you "he" anymore? and evil x says No. and xisuma's like Well alright. I'm not quite sure what the point of all this was then. but he probably keeps that last part as an inside thought. And then evil x tries to lightning strike him but they miss. and that's really embarrassing for them so they run away.
so then later when xisuma sends evil x a minemail (minecraft email) invite to help with his next snapshot overview video, and for some reason evil x agrees, x refers to evil x using they/them the whole time because he's pretty sure that's what he's supposed to be doing. And evil x seems to like that because they don't even try to kill him with lightning the entire time. And so xisuma is like Ok then.

After he’s finished laughing at Iskall, the two of them start working together to finish drying off Iskall’s clothes. Beef knows full well that if he doesn’t, the man will almost certainly spend the next week naked, just to spite Beef. It’d go against the spirit of the message, to have Iskall turn around and strip because of it.
“I still can’t believe you filled my house with fishes! After I spent a whole ten minutes getting them for you!” Iskall complains. “You do not understand being neighborly. It’s sad.”
“I told you, the more fish you got me, the better your interior would be. You should be grateful, really. Many people would only dream of getting to sleep with this many fishes. It’s a much kinder warning of what will happen when you mess with me than some people get,” Beef advises. “Big Salmon isn’t very happy with you.”
“Sleep with—okay, first, I cannot sleep with salmons, because it gets all my clothes wet. I respawned underwater, Beef!”
“Well, better not upset me more,” Beef says.
“Second, I do not know phrases well. I thought that was a… a saying meaning that you kill them, when you make them sleep with fishes? I thought it was a crime thing. I did not think—sleeping with actual fishes was involved,” Iskall continues.
“I find that in my line of work, double meanings are handy to really drive the point home,” Beef says. “You’ll never know how you’ll sleep with the fishes next time, after all.”
“Right. Okay. Sure. Third: since when were you in Grian’s weird fish cult? Because, dude, I don’t know if I would have spent a whole ten minutes gathering salmon for you if I knew you were in a weird fish cult.”
Beef huffs, offended. “Not a cult! Thats the wrong—I assure you, religion has nothing to do with Big Salmon, just profits and salmon-related—hold on, wait, did you say Grian?”
Iskall stops, confused, from where he’d been airing out his jeans next to a campfire, nearly setting the article of clothing on fire in the process. Beef and Iskall are promptly distracted trying to put out the pants fire, and for a moment, Beef nearly forgets his conversation. After the now somewhat singed and somehow still not dry pants are rescued, though, Iskall remembers.
“Anyway, yeah, Grian. I didn’t think you were involved with him. He made a whole weird cod cave and everything. I think he was trying to worship some ocean fish thingy. It was weird.”
“I don’t know how to unpack that,” Beef says.
“You’re doing it too!” Iskall accuses.
“No, I’m making legal business decisions,” Beef says. “I think I would know if I were in a fish cult, especially one for something as gauche as cod.”
“Technically the cult is about a mending book,” Iskall says.
“Okay, sure,” Beef says.
“He tried to tell me it wasn’t a cult too, but dude, it definitely was. I am judging him. And also you. Get better things to do.”
“It’s not—you are misunderstanding. It’s a family,” Beef says.
“Still don’t get it,” Iskall says.
Beef groans and rolls his eyes. “Like the Godfather.”
“Oh! You are trying to kill me, but for dramatic crime reasons! I get it now. You know, the whole salmon thing still seems a little creepy though, especially with Grian’s cave. Are you sure…”
“Absolutely positive,” Beef says. “I can’t believe you accused me of following something Grian started. I’m offended.”
“Shouldn’t you be more offended at the cult thing?” Iskall asks.
“You’re the one with the giant monolith. You’re one to talk,” Beef says.
“I don’t see how that’s related,” Iskall says.
Beef looks across the neighborhood to the giant looming grey obelisk, covered in runes and filled with esoteric blocks Iskall had collected from all of the hermits. He looks back at Iskall.
“Yeah, fine,” Beef says. “Let’s just finish drying out your clothes.”
“You owe me even more now,” Iskall says.
“I absolutely do not, don’t even start—”

I am a bit too emotional (my hands are shaky) from the fact that even though Mumbo has been on Hermitcraft from Season 2, he chose to show items from S6 to S9, and most of his memories are connected to Grian.
Sahara coin? Grian.
Mumbo for Mayor? Grian.
Redstone incident report? Grian.
Boatem horse... The richest hermit — Grian too, probably. Who else could've been behind it?
And.
The Grumbot command output with "I MISS MY DADS I MISS MY DADS I MISS MY DADS" in binary code. I CAN'T HOLD IT. The last time Mumbo saw Grumbot in S7 wasn't even his initiative. And everything that Grumbot said in S9, about the world having no purpose without Mumbo — was all because of Grian.
The mark Grian has left on him. And Mumbo's love and gratitude. He could've put anything, anything that is more about him. Mumbo was all alone during S2-5. He did so many great things all by himself. He did not enjoy collaborations, he did not want to participate in group activities, but it has changed only because there was someone persuasive and passionate, someone who loved Mumbo from the begining.
He chose these memories. These words.
I. I just can't.

I haven't seen anyone else document this so heres how demise is going as of everyone's first episodes, besides bdubs bc he hasn't released as of making this post.
(I may have gotten some things wrong; I didn't have time to completely watch every episode so i might have missed somethings)
Dead: Cub, Doc, Etho, Gem, Grian, Impulse, Jevin, Keralis, Ren, Scar, Skizz, Tango, Beef, Zedaph, Cleo.
I think only Grian, Impulse and Cub have gotten their kill but I didn't check for that so there's probably more.
Alive: Bdubs, False, Hypno, Iskall, Joe, Mumbo, Pearl, Joel, Stress, Wels, Xb, Xisuma
So so far, 15 dead, 12 still alive, afaik. Already half of them are dead, lol.
