Grian had a feeling using the water that grew the giant mushrooms was a bad idea, but since when had he ever had any impulse control regarding these sorts of things? So that's why he was now sitting inside his RV question his life choices as his new ears and tail flicked and swished impatiently.
Turns out that if you drank that water you got mutated, joy.
What was he suppose to do now? He had so much he needed to do today and he couldn't just stay in the RV all day, unfortunately, which means that he has to get out. Looking like this. Let's just hope Doc and Scar didn't see him until he got this fixed, if he even could fix this. Getting to his feet he almost tripped over his own tail, unused to having it, he'd have to ask how Wels, Tango, Python, Ren (and by extent Renbob too) and Impulse managed it. Getting out of the van he immediately spotted not only Doc, but Scar too. By the stars, why did all of this have to happen now?
Grian tried to silently walk to a hidden spot where he could take of without being seen, but Mother Nature seemed to disagree as there happened to be a hide branch right at the tree line, in earshot of the two other Hermits.
Maybe he should have stayed in bed today.
Making a brash decision he took to the skies, praying that he could get the two of his tail (literally and figuratively). To bad that both of the Area 77 guys had an easy time taking of from the ground, and now they were hot on his heels. Getting an idea on the spot, and idea he was probably gonna regret later, he executed it.
Taking a hard turn towards Hermitville he made a beeline for his house, or more specifically, the top. As soon as he made contact with the dragon at the top his hand, and the dragon, got a glow to them and soon the red build was alive and moving, "Distract them!" He cried, pointing at the two approaching Hermits. Nodding the red creature took flight and blocked the twos path, giving Grian time to fly away.
Leaving the shocked shouting of Doc and Scar behind him he decided that going to that Architech meeting might not be the best idea. So instead he went to the End, since no one ever thinks to check there. So now he was sitting on one of the obsidian pillars, doing absolutely nothing. And what does one do when they don't have anything to do? They nap of course!
And nap he did, for a long time actually. So long in fact that some may even call it sleeping, but that is neither here or there.
It had almost been 24 hours before Grian was found by Mumbo and Iskall, the two ready to go Endbusting but having stoped when they saw a red and brown form on one of the pillars. And that's how Grian woke up, crushed in a hug between his two friends. But since he was so out of it he just snuggled into their warmth and started purring, singlehandedly canceling the days Endbusting.
ooooOOOOOoooo
"So you're now a cat hybrid?"
"I guess"
"Nice"
...
"Uh, Scar? Can you let me go? As much as I love a good cuddle with you, or anyone really, I kinda have a hippie meeting too be at"
"Meeting can wait, cuddles now"
"But-"
"Shhh, cuddles"

Context time!
Ok, so I drew theses doodles of cat hybrid Grian, and then I was like; "What if the water that grew the mushrooms mutated him to be a cat?" And then this happened.
So I'd like to say this now, any story set after the hippies added the shroom-room Grian will be a cat hybrid! This is cannon for almost every AU (since in some AU's he's already a hybrid)
And if any of you want to know how he looks like as a cat, here's a picture:

I imagine his cat form kinda looking like a Turkish Angora (Very beautiful cats)
