so we're all in agreement that if jimmy doesn't die first, we'll make art and fics of the bad boys finding out grian's a watcher and jimmy asking if he can remove his death curse and grian managing to do it

#bonus points if this happens while they're discussing what he is and isn't capable of.#extra bonus points if he says it wouldn't be easy because undoing the work of another watcher is easier said than done.#extra extra bonus points if the reason grian's able to break the curse is because he's one of the ones who initially cursed jimmy.#even more bonus points if upon admitting this he agrees to break the curse to make it up to him.#even MORE bonus points if he lets jimmy know that this might be risky #since he's messing with things tied to his fate and to his life itself and if it backfires he might accidentally kill him. or worse.#jimmy understands the risks and wants to do it anyways.#joel is instructed to not intervene no matter what so he stands there and tries to stay silent and calm #while grian is unblinking and chanting in incomprehensible tongues with way more eyes than anyone's supposed to have #when the curse breaks the canary wings on the sides of jimmy's head fall apart and vanish and he has normal ears now.#some time afterwards he comments that he hadn't even realized the feathers messed with his hearing until they were gone #which i suppose makes sense since he doesn't remember a time before his death curse.#...wait. what if this DID backfire.#causing grian to accidentally permakill jimmy. thereby fulfilling both their curses at once in an attempt at breaking one of them.#ok i can't tell which version of this i like more
