Light in the Dark (Grian x Scar, Grian Angst)

I wanted more Grian angst, so here we have it

TW! SH, I'm not sorry

I've just bestowed you with fanart, you're welcome btw

The hermits were growing more and more worried by the day. Grian, usually the life and soul of the server, had become increasingly withdrawn. His laughter, once a constant, was now absent, replaced by a hollow silence. His absence was felt keenly by everyone, and it wasn't long before they began searching for him in earnest.

Days turned into weeks. Grian's base remained untouched, his projects abandoned. The community tried to keep the spirit alive, but the hole left by his withdrawal was palpable. They exchanged worried glances and whispered conversations, their anxiety growing with each passing day.

Scar was the most affected. He missed Grian's mischievous pranks, the shared jokes, and the building sessions that stretched into the night. Scar had always been perceptive, attuned to the shifts in Grian's mood. And lately, something had changed. The cheerful facade Grian wore had cracked, revealing a deep, unseen pain.

One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows over the server, Scar decided he couldn't wait any longer. He had to find Grian. He visited the places they had built together, the spots that held memories of better times. Finally, he found Grian in a secluded corner of the world, sitting alone by the water's edge.

Grian's appearance was alarming. His clothes were disheveled, and dark circles framed his eyes, which were red from crying. Scar approached slowly, heart heavy with worry.

"Grian?" he called softly.

Grian didn't respond. He just stared at the water, lost in his thoughts. Scar noticed the faint, fresh marks on Grian's arms, and his heart clenched painfully. He had suspected, but seeing the evidence of self-harm was a harsh reality he wasn't prepared for.

"Grian," Scar said again, his voice shaking. He sat down beside his friend, wrapping an arm around him gently. "Please, talk to me. What's wrong?"

For a moment, Grian remained silent. Then, in a voice barely above a whisper, he began to speak. "I... I don't know how to handle it anymore, Scar. Everything feels so heavy. I can't stop the thoughts, and... hurting myself feels like the only way to make it stop."

Scar's eyes filled with tears. "You don't have to go through this alone, Grian. We're all so worried about you. I'm so worried about you."

Grian finally looked at Scar, his eyes filled with a mix of despair and hope. "I'm scared, Scar. I don't know how to get out of this."

Scar pulled Grian into a tight hug, holding him as if he might disappear at any moment. "You don't have to know right now. Just... let me be here with you. Please, let me help."

Grian clung to Scar, the dam of his emotions breaking. He cried into Scar's shoulder, releasing weeks of pent-up pain. Scar held him through it all, whispering soothing words and promises of support. When the sobs finally subsided, Scar shifted them so they were lying down, Grian's head resting on his chest.

They lay there in silence, the night enveloping them in its quiet embrace. Scar's arms remained around Grian, a protective cocoon against the darkness threatening to consume him. There were no promises of easy fixes, no declarations that everything would be okay. Just the warmth of their shared presence, a silent vow of understanding and care.

As the stars twinkled overhead, Scar continued to hold Grian close, letting him know without words that he wasn't alone. The path to healing would be long and difficult, but for now, in this moment, they had each other. And that, perhaps, was enough.
