Grian stepped out of the server and was immediately tackled.
Pearl pinned him to the ground, wings vibrating, eyes gleaming— then blinked, recognizing him. "Oh. Grian."
"Hi, Pearl," Grian said casually, "found you."
She carefully climbed off him, helping him back to his feet and dusting off his sweater and wings. "Sorry, I was—"
"Patrolling to make sure the hacker doesn't escape?" Grian guessed. Pearl nodded, looking away in slight embarrassment. Grian frowned, noticing the dark circles under her eyes. "How long have you been out here?"
"Thirty, maybe forty minutes," she muttered, kicking at the dirt. "No one else is out here, so I've just been guarding the firewall."
"Riiiiight. . ." Grian said, drawing out the word. "You might want to check the time again, you missed your stream."
Pearl stared at him, then silently lifted her wrist, eyes widening, no doubt seeing the missed messages from Tango. "Oh. I didn't. . . hm."
Xisuma suddenly emerged from the server dome, tensely glancing around at the two winged hermits before relaxing when no threat presented itself. "You two alright? Something going on?"

FanfictionHacking onto Hermitcraft really isn't a good idea. Especially when you quickly realize your mistake and try to leave but can't because the hermits are just so damn determined to heal those hurts you've been holding onto for a long time. Sorry Tommy...
