    Summary

    “We’ve got bigger problems.” He finds the gunpowder he was looking for and drops it into Mumbo’s hand. The man sobers a bit, giving Grian a tight smile.
    “Yeah…Your hair.”
    “The moon, you–” Grian smacks him with a wing, glaring.

    or

    Scar used to cut Grian's hair in the desert. They're back on hermitcraft now, and Grian's having trouble coming to terms with a lot of things. The first being that he killed his best friend. The second: that he fell in love with him first.

    Summary

    The first thought that crossed Grian’s mind when he saw the figure on the other side of the altar was one of instinct.
    This man is dangerous.
    It was an easy one to understand. The leader of Magic Mountain, a renowned mage in his own right, was supposed to be dangerous. The image that Grian had conjured up in his mind still couldn’t measure up to the way that a presence made his entire body seize up for a precious second. It was impossible to catch, at least that’s what he thought, until green eyes flicked up to his with a knowing glint.
    Archmage Scar would be his toughest enemy yet.
    Or,
    Prince Grian of the Southlands is forced to marry the leader of Magic Mountain to secure a peace treaty. This simple marriage seems to be nothing at first, but Grian is quickly thrust into a political war that will determine the fate of the many kingdoms that hang in the balance.

    Summary

    Mumbo Jumbo isn't in the Jaeger when Grian and Scar fight, however much he wishes he could be. Which means he has to watch them fall apart without him. He thinks of how things were, how Grian and Scar used to be, and wishes there was something, anything, he could do.

    --

    Or, a Pacific Rim AU in which Mumbo is a Jaeger Tech, Grian and Scar are Jaeger Pilots, and there really actually is a simple solution to their problems, if only everyone would talk to each other.

    Summary

    The lights of the whole district went out with a pop, streetlights and autocars grinding to a halt. The contrast felt like losing touch with reality, stimulation dropping to zero: no lights in the windows, no holographic advertisements crowding the sidewalks, every VR port in the city running on emergency battery power. Grian activated his wings on reflex, but there wasn’t an attack. It couldn’t have been an attack, or Pearl would have already been moving.

    The only possible threat was the storm over the sea, a roiling unnatural thunderhead that the lack of advertisements made significantly more visible. It was coming in from the west. To the east the sky was clearer, and the clouds had gaps between them, and one of those gaps cradled the moon like a picture frame.

    It was impossible to concentrate on anything else after seeing the moon. The heightened winds, the debris slamming into the unshielded buildings, the shantytown lights blinking off one by one as they diverted power to their defenses– none of it meant anything. None of it even registered.

    “Pearl,” Grian said, almost too fascinated to be horrified, "am I dreaming, or is the moon big?”
