They all stared at Techno as he finished recounting the events that had happened.

"OH MY FUCKING GOD- NO WAY THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED" Wilbur exclaimed, slamming his hands on the table as he stared at Techno with his mouth open.

Techno shrugged, grabbing a book from his inventory "I guess i'll just throw this out then" He  let out a (fake) sad sigh.

"NONONO WAIT" Techno smirked at this. Man does he love teasing his twin. "GIMME THAT!" Wilbur reached forward trying to swipe the book from Techno.

"Wait- Hold on, Techno you nearly got scammed?" Phil asked, his brain still processing what his son had just told them.

"Yes- Wil stop- Dad control your balding son" Techno huffed as he kept dodging Wilbur's grubby hands. Wilbur on the other hand paused at this "Stop saying I'm balding, My hair is perfectly fine." He frowned.

"Alright alright both of you calm down. Wil sit down, Techno stop teasing your brother, and Tommy stop trying to steal all the cookies" The two brothers paused and looked at Tommy, who was currently trying to shove as many cookies as he can in his bag.

"HEY! LEAVE SOME FOR US"

--

After his sons had finally settled down, Phil had put another batch of cookies in the oven and was now waiting for it to bake.

"What do i have to do to get the book" Ah, so now they were negotiating.

"Hmmmm, throw away all of your beanies"  He deadpanned, secretly enjoying the flash of horror that overcame Wilbur's face.

"You know I can't do that! I'd rather do your chores for a month!" Wilbur basically pleaded, Techno pondered for a bit.

"Deal." Wilbur's face visibly brightened "Also i was already planning on giving this to you" Techno grinned, handing his brother the book. Though he must've not heard him (or chose not to) because his excited expression didn't change.

He quickly opened the book and lo and behold was Grian's writing. It read: Happy Birthday :D -Grian.

"Wilbur Sewt do you like Groin??" Tommy questioned, purposely butchering the man's name. Wilbur rolled his eyes at his younger brother's antics "Yes he is very cool Tommy Aint it" Tommy squinted his eyes at Wilbur "I agree with you Baldbur Soot" Phil sighed.

As the two boys bickered in the background, Phil thought about what Techno had told them. Grian? He hadn't heard that name in a long time

"Gri! Get back here you-" a child's laughter rang out through the air "Catch me first!"

"Gri! Gri where are you!? GRIAN!" A blonde boy watched as his home, his village burned to the ground. His brother nowhere in sight.

"Phil?" Techno's voice broke him out of his trance, he looked over to his sons looking at him with worried glances "You good there big P?" Tommy asked, briefly glancing at Wilbur.

"Huh? Oh yeah- sorry i got side tracked there. Anyways, Wil tell me about Grian. You seem to quite like him" Phil smiled at his piglin son who beamed at the chance to ramble about his idol(?).

"Oh boy, here we go" Techno sighed, mentally preparing himself for the upcoming ramble of a certain avian.

-

Phil listened as his son rambled about Grian. Apparently Grian had started two civil wars, is one of the richest hermit, has a running gag of being a bread, TURNED himsself into a bread, Became a mother spore, and so much more.

Phil let a small smile creep onto his face as his son excitedly talks about Grian, his other two brothers piping in here and there. It seems that the twins are more into Grian rather than their youngest who claims that Mumbo Jumbo is the "Poggest man alive" and is "More Phil than Phil". Which earned a offended "What" from the man.

"Oh and Phil get this, they settled the war through MINIGAMES like" Wilbur made a bunch of hand gestures that basically screamed "wtf???? Like what???? What to the nth degree???"

Phil let out a small laugh at this "Oh! Didn't Grian also kill Dream before?" Wilbur looked over to his twin for confirmation "Yeah, like 3-4 times I'm pretty sure" Tommy nodded along his brothers  "That was very impressive and cool of Grine if i do say so myself"

Phul blinked, back when they were younger Grian was more interested in building stuff rather than PvP stuff while Phil used to be more interested on PvP stuff rather than building stuff. Tho he stopped after a while and decided to do building for a bit.

"Come on Gri, it'll be a quick spar" A child huffed at his older brother's words "Fine, but only if you help me build my tower" "Deal!"

Dream was one of the best PvPers he's ever known, (Techno will always be THE BEST PvPer in Phil's eyes, but then again he's biased)  so it was pretty impressive that Grian manages to get him more than once.

"Yeah, it was considering Grian is more known as a builder than a fighter" Wilbur commented, biting into another piece of cookies. Phil let a small sad smile rest onto his face as he stared at the tea (which he made during Wilbur's rant)  in his hands.

"So that's what he's been doing these days.." Techno noticed the slight dampness in Phil's attitude "Oh? Do you know him Phil?"

Phil paused, Fuck- they don't know that he's their uncle.

"I'd be suprised if he didn't after your rant" Techno rolled his eyes at his twin who scoffed offendedly "Don't act like you didn't butt in during my 'rant' Mr.Techno Clout Chasing Blade" Wilbur bit back at his twin.

Tommy watched his older brothers start to bicker as he calmly drank his coke. He had decided that today was a quiet day for him thank you very much.

Though the bickering was short lived as Phil interrupted the two "So uh, there's something i haven't told you yet" he started, looking at the three of them.

His sons turned silent after sensing the seriousness that came with Phil's soft voice. Techno motioned for his dad to continue.

"Well first off, you have an uncle" He watched as his son's expression turned to shock before Techno squinted at him.

"Okay.....what does this have to do with-" Techno cut himself off, his eyes widening as he realized what Phil was implying.

Phil sucked in a breath through his teeth, smiling sheepishly at his sons.

"Grian is your uncle, uh.. surprise..?"
