[COMPLETED] hermitcraft oneshots & drabbles

Becoming a Watcher P.1/? [n/a | Gex PLATONIC]

HHHHHHHHHHHHHH TAKE THIS 

*throws a half written wip at you*

Oh would you look at that, I wrote something that isn't that bad, although it can definitely be way better. This might become a mini series of oneshots if you guys enjoyed this crappy wip.

Also, I'm so sorry to the few people that requested a request. They're just taking bit longer than I hoped... I feel really bad and I might be able to get one of the requests finished by the end of the week. (hopefully)

Part 1/? [there's definitely going to be another part, so don't worry] (Please comment if you like this oneshot and want to see more parts to this, I need to interact with you guys more-)

Watchers are good in this because they deserve more screentime :>

Grian looked at his surroundings in awe as he entered the Watcher Academy. Everything was purple. From the chandeliers on the ceiling to velvet drapes on the windows. Even the marble floor seemed to have a purple tint to it.

Today was Grian's first day at the Academy, the first day of the next six years of training to become a watcher. Ever since he learned about Watchers, he wouldn't shut up about them. Ever since he was selected to become a Watcher, he couldn't stop grinning in excitement. Although he would surely miss the Evo server and his friends, he had a good feeling about this.

Grian took a second to look at other people around him. He had been one of the thirty people chosen to train at the Academy this year. His eyes stopped at a boy sitting in front of him. He narrowed his eyes, becoming a little curious at the guy. He had white hair and red armor.

I wonder who he is...

Grian tapped his shoulder, wiggling his fingers at the red clad man. He waved back awkwardly.

"Hey I'm G- Xelqua!" He exclaimed while smiling, introducing himself with his original name. Since Grian was in a new environment, he figured he could start fresh, set a new reputation for himself. On Evo, he was known as the prankster, the troublemaker. Although he didn't mind the names, he really wanted to prove that he wasn't a nuisance all the time.

"H-hi? I'm Xanthus, but call me X." Xanthus smiled back nervously, nerves getting the best of him.

"Alright X, nice to meet you! I'm still gonna call you Xanthus occasionally." His grin widening. He opening his mouth to say more but quickly shut up as a formal looking Watcher walked up to the group. Grian gestured for Xanthus to turn around, hoping that he'd be able to make friends with the guy later. He had no friends here, he was alone. And it looked like the rest of his classmates were in the same dilemma, as barely anyone knew each other. 

"Hello all and welcome to the Watcher Academy, the most prestigious Academy in all of Minecraft." The Watcher was wearing purple gold-threaded robes over a regal looking dress shirt and pant, an official badge sewed on at the front. "Please call me Prime Watcher Ivan."

"Today is the start of a new life for you. Today is the first day of the next six years of your life at this school. Today, is your first step to becoming a Watcher, one of Minecraft's finest.

"You will be trained to become the best Watcher you could possibly be, the best version of yourself. Us, your superiors, will make sure of that. We will be here, every step of the way.

Ivan looked around the room, rolling his eyes slightly. The newbies were liked overexcited puppies, fidgeting in their seats, an eager look spread among their faces. It was like looking at a bucket filled to the brim with chaotic energy, just in the form of thirty different players. It was like this with every student at the Academy. They first start out as way to eager to learn, to becoming toned-down and mature... well most of the time. Ivan himself had attended this academy during his training years, successfully graduating as one of the top in his year.

"Now, I know you are all excited to start learning, but first you need to get yourself accustomed to your surroundings. Classes will start on Monday, giving you guys the weekend to get used to the area.

"I will be calling out your dorm-mate, each pair will get their own dorm to share. Curfew is at 11:00 pm." He pulled out a scroll, unraveling it to reveal a list of names. "Once you hear you and your dorm-mate's name, please go down the left corridor to find your respected dorm. Your belongings should be there already."

Ivan cleared his throat, and began reading off the list.

"Technoblade and Dream..." (Fun fact: I was watching MC Championships, live, during the process of this)

Grian zoned out, gazing outside at the greenery that surrounded the building. Roses and dandelions shone is the sun, the trees were swaying ever-so-gently in the wind, leaves cascading down onto the grass behind the trees. He wondered how his friends were doing on the Evo server without him. His eyes followed a fox that was gently creeping along the sides of a nearby forest.

"Xelqua and Xanthusvoid"

Grian snapped his attention back towards Prime Watcher Ivan, eyes widening in surprise as he made eye contact with Xanthus who was turned around, looking at Grian.

"So looks like we'll be getting to know each other better, Xelqua."

Grian grinned, shifting slightly in his seat before focusing his attention back on Prime Watcher Ivan.

"Guess so, Xanthus."
