Mumbo was busy working on his pumpkin and melon farm near the watch farm. Surprisingly, there was no technical errors to his redstone, it was quiet flawless.

It was probably a stroke of luck or something but whatever it is, it really was a great day for him.

The sky was clear, the air was cool, the lava beneath him was warm. It's gonna be a peaceful day for our favourite mustache hermit. (Or so he thought)

While he planted some more seeds for the farm, he realized that he ran out of pumpkin seeds, so when he went to his inventory to check if he had more seeds.

There was a lot of junk like some dirt blocks or worn out leather boots in his inventory and was wondering how on earth did he get these boots.

So as he threw the rubbish to the lava, he accidentally pressed a different slot and threw something that made a great deal to him...

As the precious object burned in the lava, Mumbo was in horror, his eyes widened, and his heart froze. Soon he heard someone land behind him.

"Howdy Mumbo, what are you up to?" Asked Joehills as he waits for a response. He walked up to him, revealing Mumbo's eyes filled with shock and regret. "You ok?"

Mumbo kept quiet for almost a minute, leaving Joehills confused and curious. Soon he heard a slight mumble. "I threw my fork of forgiveness in the lava...."

Joehills looked at him with more confusion "You mean the fork of friendship?"

Mumbo shook his head. "No, the fork of forgiveness..... the one that Grian gave to me as an apology gift....."

" Grian will probably understand that it was an accident, it's Grian" responded Joe.

"No, this is unacceptable!" Snapped Mumbo as he got his rockets and flew off, leaving Joehills alone in the farm. "How rude" complained Joe as he flew off and try to catch up with Mumbo.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mumbo landed on his base, he paced around, hoping that it was just a stupid nightmare. Iskall landed near him, wondering what was up with the pacing and stress.

"Bro, are you alright?" Asked Iskall as Mumbo stopped pacing and looked at him in the eye. "Pinch me Iskall...." Iskall looked at him, confused and slightly surprised about Mumbo's tiny request.

Iskall pinched him, causing Mumbo wince a bit. Then he continued pacing around the place. "Seriously Mumbo, what is up with you?" Asked the concerned swedish hermit.

Mumbo still kept pacing, ignoring whatever Iskall is saying. He then heard rockets coming up to his base. He so desperately hoped it was any other hermit but Grian, he's even ok if it was Evil X for once.

But fate had to give him such terrible luck as british hermit landed on the ground gracefully. "Hey Mumbo, I saw you pacing around a lot while I was flying, you alright?" Asked Grian.

Mumbo suddenly flew away from Grian an Iskall, causing Grian to follow him and leave a lonely Iskall. "Welp" pouted Iskall.

"Hey Iskall, did Mumbo by any chance passed by here?" Asked Joehills as he landed beside him.

"He did, but he's already flying away from Grian" Iskall replied, what happened to that mustache man?" He asked. Soon Joehills filled in on the details to what happened to his burnt trident.

Iskall soon understood the situation "ohhhhh.... I mean, it makes sense now"

Joe then stared at Iskall with curiosity filling his head "you know something, do you?" He asked Iskall suspiciously.

Iskall soon nodded " I think you were on a family vacation back then, Grian and Mumbo kinda got into a huge argument. And knowing me felt guilty because a put the prank there in the first place."

Iskall then started feeling the guilt again, but he kept talking;

"So I insisted Mumbo into giving an apology gift to Grian, and I told the same thing to Grian. Coincidences happened and they both surprisingly gave each other new tridents with names. And Mumbo carefully treasured that trident ever since then... in his inventory...."

Silence filled up the base, Joehills can see why Mumbo was very nervous.

Joe then got prepared his rockets "Soon Mumbo will know when he'll tell, he can't ignore Grian forever anyway." Says Joe as Iskall nodded in agreement.

Soon he took off, leaving a lonely Iskall.

~~~~~Keichi: this is my first time doing this, but TIME SKIP~~~~~

Grian soon gave up chasing him, letting Mumbo go. He thought to himself that he's probably busy, although he needs to repair his elytra.

He walked to the nearest nether portal to get to the blaze farm, he soon saw Jevin also collecting XP from the blazes, so he joined in.

But he realized that Jevin wasn't moving at all aside from his arms. "Jevin, you ok? Looking stiff." He asked.

IJevin didn't turn his head but he spoke; "Doing fine." He smiled at him as he sweat drops.

But before Grian proceeded killing the blazes, he heard a cough from Jevin's direction. But it wasn't him. He soon saw a black fabric poking behind him.

"Mumbo?" Soon the mustache hermit left the farm, running to the closest portal. "MUMBO COME BACK!!" Yelled Grian as he ran to the portal, leaving the blue slime all by himself.

(Keichi: *inserts All by myself song* ;) )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"God why didn't I fixed my elytra when I had the chance?" Complained Mumbo as he leaves the portal and runs through the shopping district.

Grian soon appears and sees Mumbo running, he chased him down trying to talk to him. There was something bothering him and as an Architect bro and his friend, he cares for him.

Grian then realized that he had a fixed elytra! He immediately put on the elytra as he runs and gets his rockets and flies to him.

Mumbo looked back to reveal Grian flying up to him, he knew he couldn't stand a chance. Suddenly something caught his eye, a plan came up from his mind. He leads Grian near the statue of hermity, just in luck, he saw Joehills walking near the shops.

Mumbo then turns a sharp left, and Grian followed. But as Grian turn to the corner, he was met by Joehills who tried to get out of the way. He dodged Joe by 1 inch as Joe fell on the ground and landed to check of he's alright.

"You ok Joe? Sorry about that." Apologized Grian as he extends his arm to the hermit. Joe took the hand and stood up to brush the dirt on his clothes.

"Chasing Mumbo huh?" "Yeah, trying to find out what's going on." Replied Grian as Joe looked at the sun sets on the horizon. "Best if you go home before it gets darker." Advised Joehills.

Grian listened and flew off to his base. Joe realized that hint of disappointment he saw on Grian, did Mumbo really tried avoiding Grian for that long?

As Grian lands on his base, he couldn't stop thinking of the possibilities that Mumbo is straight up ignoring him. "Is he really doing this on purpose?" Thought Grian, he was starting to get hurt thinking about it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Before the sun sets completely, Mumbo was on a skeleton horse he found near the coast. He was just riding his skeleton horse under the sea, passing all the fishes and seaweeds as he arrives at his base.

He leaves the skeleton horse walking around his base and goes up to his storage to clear half of is inventory. Mumbo felt tired from all that running, he knows that Grian will soon find out. But he was too scared to see his reaction.

Suddenly he saw a green beam of light coming from his beacon. Meaning he has mail!

He went to look inside the chest full of chicken eggs and saw a book. H took out, and started reading it.

To Mumbo Jumbo

                                   Seeing as you would just run away again, I will just do it the old fashioned way. Is something wrong Mumbo? Because you have been ignoring me non stop. If you don't want me to talk to you or disturb you, then you could have asked me straight away. I'm hoping nothing is bothering you that much.

-Grian          

A tear dropped on the dry pages of the book, Mumbo realized that he was crying. God why was he a big spoon?! He's crying over a burnt trident, what is wrong with him?!

He walked up to his bedroom and threw his body on the bed. He felt like a big baby, as he wipes the tears from his eyes. His eyes felt heavy and drifted off to dream land........

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Grian woke up, feeling a beam of light on his face. He putted on his elytra and flew up to his aviary and sat near the tree chunks.

He really felt curious and concerned about Mumbo, he wouldn't bother checking on him. But he'd just run away again.

"Might as well check on him" Grian told himself as he took off again and headed straight to Mumbo's. But once he arrived, he noticed Joehills talking to Mumbo down there.

He landed quietly and hid behind the storage area. He doesn't know why, but it looks like Joe is.... lecturing Mumbo about something? "You'd be surprised" Grian thought to himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Come on Mumbo, just tell him the truth!" Complained Joe as Mumbo was thinking in his mind.

"The truth?" Asked Grian to himself.

"I can't......" confessed Mumbo as he scratches his head, making Joe even more annoyed with his stubbornness. "Grian is Grian! He's rarely serious about anything, even during the war!" Complained Joe more.

Grian felt quiet hurt again "How mean Joe" T^T

"It's very special Joe, what would you do if you lost something that your loved one gave you?" Questioned Mumbo.

"Obviously tell them! Or it will make things worst! Just tell Grian that you accidentally threw your trident in the lava!"

Grian suddenly stopped feeling a little down and a little anger filled up his mind "Mumbo ignored me hardcore because he lost that stupid Fork of Forgiveness?!"

"This is what I've been worrying about, Mumbo I swear to god you could have told me sooner!" Grian fixed his sleeves ready to punch him.

"MAYBE IT'S EASY FOR YOU BECAUSE YOUR JOEHILLS, I'M A MUMBO JUMBO SPOON!!" Snapped Mumbo, causing Joe to be surprised by how his emotions immediately changed.

Grian stopped before he revealed himself.

Mumbo got back to his senses, then looked back up at Joe, starting to calm himself down.

"I was really attached to that Fork of Forgiveness not because it was my treasure, it's a way of showing Grian how appreciated I am. I once hurt him, and I'm not making that same mistake again! I don't want him to think less of me..... because I'm just a big fat idiot......."

Joehills was astonished by that answer, he can finally see why he doesn't want Grian to know.

Something watery was in his eyes, Grian tried his best not shed a tear. But instead smiled, he felt touched on how he put so much effort and appreciation he put on that fork.

It was nice that Mumbo cares about his feelings.

Joe looked at him with a smile and put his hand on his shoulder. "It's ok if you don't tell him now, take your time till the time comes"

Mumbo nodded and bid him farewell. Joehills then flew off to the shopping district.

Mumbo then continued fixing his storage. "Redstone repeaters stays here, tree saplings go to another chest-"

"What about me Mumbo?" "No way Grian, you can't fit in ther-" Mumbo then drops the sapling and looks at Grian, who surprisingly was beside him.

He quickly puts on his elytra and runs to the edge as Grian chases him again.

But as Mumbo jumped and used his rockets, he fell on the ground in a big thud! Realizing that he forgot to mend his elytra yesterday, god why was he a big spoon?!

Grian hurriedly went to his mustache friend with worry. "Mumbo are you alright?" He asked as Mumbo slowly stood up, feeling the pain from that fall. "G-Grian........ I-I need to fix my-"

Grian immediately put his hand on his shoulder, and smiled at him. "I heard everything Mumbo, you could have just told me." Pouted Grian "I was feeling lonely, your a spoon from hiding secrets."

Mumbo hugged Grian, surprising the blonde hermit. " I'm an idiot.........." mumbled Mumbo..... Grian chuckled at him.

"Bruh, I also lost my trident last week" admitted Grian as he blushed embarrassingly. Which alerted Mumbo

They both looked at each other, and just laughed. It was quiet the coincidence that they hid the secret of losing there own gifts.

"Note to self, never give each other tridents ever again" says Grian as Mumbo punches his shoulder. "Not making promises." Says Mumbo as they continued laughing.

He's felt so happy to talk to Grian again without any fear lingering behind

The End

~~~~~Bonus Chapter~~~~~

Mumbo just logged on to the sever to reveal a big Mumbo statue near his witch farm. There was a sign and an item frame with a trident, name "The fork's husband". The sign said "Because a spoon and fork are meant to be together".

Mumbo shrugged at Grian's joke and gladly took the gift. Although the one thing he doesn't know is..... it wasn't Grian.....

~~~~~~~~~~~

Grian was somewhere else infront of a big poultry man statue, feeling confuse to why his new trident was called "Your the fork"....
