A Vial of Sand

The first in a series of crossovers between the Life Series and The Mistholme Museum of Mystery Morbidity and Mortality (TM5) podcast. Given the relative size of the fanbases, chances are that you're a Life Series fan but not a Mistholme one. No worries! You don't need to know anything about TM5 going into this (nor about the Life Series for that matter).

Summary
Clinging to the jagged New England coastline, Hermit’s Hollow was a town of whispers on the wind and eyes in every shadowed corner. Shrouded in secrets and the ever-present Fog, the only real products of its barren soil were lingering myths and half-told legends. But in the Hollows, those flourished like unkillable weeds, digging in their roots and choking the life out of anything that dared compete.
Growing up in Hermit’s Hollow, Pearl was faced with a choice: learn to live among the weeds, or let herself be strangled.

Summary
Mister Wizard won’t meet his eyes.
And—honestly, Max thinks that might be a bit unfair. Like—sure, he messed up. What else is new?
Or, Max Blunder was always going to be a screw-up. It was his destiny since birth—even his name set the precedent for the rest of his life. He had made his peace with that, after so long.
So why does it hurt so much when he makes this mistake?

Summary
The case of Hermitcraft v. Goodtimes, McGrian's H.C. (Season 10), Bdubs' Court of Law, held at a reasonable time with reasonable, calm-minded players who certainly do not already have a verdict in mind on account of what happened to the shopping district.
The court calls GoodTimesWithScar to the stand.

In tears, this is too funny. Legit can’t tell where canon ends and the fic begins. Did the author invent a hc10 conflict for the fic or did I miss a whole cow-related event in the middle of the season??? The answer is unknowable

The sky is empty of eyes.
That’s not something the others would notice, and Grian can’t see the difference, either, not anymore. It’s something he feels instead, as keenly as the absence of wings, the oppressive looming presences missing from the corners of his mind. The Watchers are gone.The Watchers have been defeated. Grian has been defeated.
With his powers gone and his betrayal revealed to everyone, he’s been sent to a new world for… hang on, this isn’t a death game. What is it the Listeners want from them?
And why won’t Scar just leave him alone?Bookmarked by anti_alias

What the hell. How could you just drop this and expect me to be normal about it. This is slice of life in the way cutting a gash into a still-bloody hunk of meat is a slice of life, and I love it for that.
This captures the core feel of the desert better than anything I’ve read. When the miasma of toxic watcher lore coalesces in my mind, this is the essence of that nebulous cloud of feeling. I love this from the soaring heights of agony to the pits of despair to all the mundane spaces in between

Summary
A map in the Sanctuary is about as useful as a steaming cup of coffee in a desert, but Scar’s all too gleeful to whip out the old roll of parchment from beneath the counter and roll it flat. But before the traveler can lean in too close, Scar flips it over and splays it out wrong-side up. Nothing but blank, vaguely yellowed paper stares back up at them.
Scar feels the stranger’s eyes on him. He imagines it’s what burning in the sun might feel like.
It’s enough, Scar tells himself. This has to be enough.

Holy shit, oh my god. This is incredible. The atmosphere and the slow reveal of scar’s entrapment in this fantasy spider-filled-desert-sanctuary realm after the fallout of third life? Insane. I’m such a sucker for these types of full circle stories, where familiar elements reappear from start to end, but return with crucial differences
This one in particular reminds me of “Like Honey in Your Teeth,” a desert duo fic that lives rent free in my head at all hours. There’s so much to dig into here, from the omission of the yellow webs (they jump straight from green to read without dwelling on yellow) to the significance of the moonlight when Grian is typically represented by the sun. It’s so rich in symbolism and character that I feel like I’m the one drowning in a cup of coffee in the desert. Simply amazing stuff.
