#but thats only because ive chosen to have grian be the main character

[set-in-stardust]

Hi! I’ve been eyeing veritatem dies aperit for a while because I love mumscarian but I’m ngl the “mumbo jumbo & goodtimeswithscar” tag has me a little worried. Is the endgame of the fic full mumscarian or is it more of a grian has two hands scenario? (Not that there’s anything wrong with scarian + grumbo I just prefer them as a triad over a v poly relationship)

The ending ends up being more of a triad! Since the fic is from Grian's perspective, you do get more of a v feel at times, but throughout the story (at this moment) there are moments that unfortunately Grian misses due to.. circumstances :) or that he takes in a jealous way between Mumbo and Scar.

I definitely plan on this being a triad scenario. We all love Grian and as much as he is the main character in this situation, I don't want to write a "Grian has two hands scenario" cuz,, I just don't!

Of course the romance starts as a main plot between Mumbo and Grian, then Grian and Scar as things happen, but at the same time, Mumbo and Scar are becoming closer and developing a more intimate relationship. I do wanna write some shorts for post-story and other moments that aren't shown from the main POV after I finish VDA, though!!

The relationship isn't really the main plot focus after shit starts going down, but I do want to have it here because it's a part of the characters journey through the experiences and also helps foster conflict that ends in a pretty great poly triad (itll be great as long as I go with what I have planned, I mean)

Hope this makes sense, feel free to leave me another message if you have any questions!!
