[@DrUltralux]

Grian is Timmy’s personal bully, but in the best comedic style, not actually nasty. Love it.

[@bluefeye]

so far, grian has been late because he was: - pre peeling his fruit - organizing his over 120+ tie collection in colour order - cleaning/polishing his gong - getting his eyebrows waxed - just hoovering up - trimming the hedges outside his house - just liked interrupting solidarity's stream flow - taking his cat for a walk - pairing up some socks - napping - organizing his haribo so he can eat them in colour order - cutting his grass with scissors - finishing up his knitting (he was knitting a little maui) pick your favourite lmao

[@TickleAsshairs]

Gotta be polishing his gong, feels like the most surprising thing he'd own/do

[@Skywalker8510Too]

Definitely the peeling of the fruit. The fact that everyone went along with it made it so funny.
