"There you are", a voice behind him said.
He turned around to see a smiling Mumbo swirling around to land softly on the new grass he had just put down in his aviary. He seemed a bit distracted.
"You look like a pirate. But also not really." Mumbo paused eyeing the two colourful birds that had settled on Grian's shoulders. "Something like a crazy cat lady."
Mumbo giggled at Grian pouting, but Grian quickly joined the chuckles.
"Imagine me just commanding these parrots around." He shifted his voice. "Feel the wrath of the crazy parrot pirate. Destroyer of peace and quiet on the server."
"Now that's quite a change," Mumbo said. "One day you are a bird superhero, now you're an.. an avian supervillain. What's gotten into you, man?"
"What do you mean, superhero?" Grian said, putting on a fake-bewildered tone.
"Well you're poultry man." Mumbo seemed slightly annoyed.
"What are you talking about?" Grian said indignantly. "I am not poultry man. No one knows who poultry man is. He is a secret hero, gracing this deserted place with the lively power of his chicken. Besides, I've heard he's gone into hiding. So my doors to being an avian supervillain stand ajar and the smell of power is wafting through them...!"
Grian got lost in thought contemplating this for a moment until he remembered, that he couldn't actually get the parrots to cause mayhem.
Mumbo watched him, grinning. This was Grian at his best. He hadn't even said, why he'd come over, but this cute weirdness was already worth the travel.
