Some soft quality time with the family

Day 29: Massive

Big and tall and sexy God Joel & his tiny (re: Normal sized) family <3

Theym<3

I just think it'd be funny if Scott got caught during his Relics Heists

Inktober Day 26: Remove

Behold, my favorite egotistical, rich bastard [affectionate]

This idea scratched my brain until I exploded with gold sharpie paint pens

Inktober Day 6: Golden

Sketchy sketchy whoooaa

Yeah so I got possessed with a demand of Unhindged Joel and this is the result you're welcome

I'm back from the dead and I'm here to offer more of whatever this family is

My favorites honestly

In which Joel's closer to a type of demigod and gets real insecure about his "not godly" form

The gays of Empires have a chokehold on me.

Based on the song "Google Translate / poppies" by Leanna Firestone, more specifically this video cos I did realize it was a proper song lmao

But yeah, they're soft and i love them and they're dorks and dumb <3

Welcome, all, Stratos' most humble of Gods

Behold

Inktober Day 26: Ego

This is empires season 1 king Joel’s weapon of choice

I propose a new curse idea in empires called the curse of the mesa any empire that is located in that biome will have an emperor that is doomed to go insane and is associated with themes of delusions and denial there death will be the same as the ones before them they will die of heart break

tiny Tom headcannon

First things first tiny tom is a girl and a little bit bratty 

she is one of those kids that is obsessed with the idea of a fairy tale happily ever after and when she was abandoned she latched on to that idea and like Jimmy she has a depressing tally board to count the days her goal has not been reached but instead of it being for a train to be build it’s for the days of her not getting her idealized Prince Charming

She admires gem because she is a princess and just like her dads she has delusions about having authority and power so she’s very bossy to the annoyance of everyone plus her father is a god so it’s really bad

she inherited jimmy’s rigid morals and dislike of disrespect and ability to pick her self up

she inherited Joel’s expensive taste and god like strength and patience she doesn’t do things in halves

She loves her brother Hermes but is such a textbook annoying little sister that she manages to be the only that has ever driven the sweet Hermes to loose his patience

They had a very bad first meeting when she found she had a brother she got together a “contract’ and wanted Hermes to agree to unreasonable demands like letting her use his stuff or something like that

Don’t be mistaken Hermes loves her to but there relationship is not the best because he’s obviously the favorite of Joel and he inherited more god powers still she got super strength and is very much capable of picking up both her dads

When she’s older like in her tweens she started to look for parents and it was then she was told who they where

So She went to meet them and when she met Joel it wasn’t good he told her to go back to where she was and when she got pissed he pointed her towards Jimmy so she would take her complains to him instead

Jimmy agreed to let her stay and is very strict but she is the stereotypical bratty daughter so as you can imagine they bicker o lot she also has super strength which makes disciplining her very difficult 

she hates living in tumble town because it’s dirty and she has to do dirty chores she longs to live in stratos but She doesn’t have a roof over her head there and because she still wants to connect to her dads she stays in tumble town

whenever Joel comes he gives her random gifts to piss off jimmy and she worships the ground joel walks on because she is desperate for his approval but she doesn’t respect her other dad who hops from underestimating and babying her to showing disapproval whenever she does something childish

Jimmy try’s to be a dad but the last time he saw her she was a kid and he missed a lot 

over time they do get close but jimmys has a lot to learn and toms got a lot of maturing to do before she gets the picture

I don’t think season 2 Joel is a god but I do think the headcannon I’ve seen of Joel from season 1 and season 2 being the same person is true 

I believe what happened was that after his palace was destroyed and his loved ones went missing joel searched for a purpose to distract himself from the grief 

He still wanted to leave behind a legacy so he became obsessed with building his magnum opus a statue just like his citizens but so much more he would get giant muscles and be very tall and have the power of a god

he based the design off of myths like Zeus because he was inspired by his wife who was debatably a goddess also he used famous Greek sculptures as references 

While He is the same Joel from season 1 he is not an immortal god like he claims he is It would be ironic because it would make him making fun of Jimmy for being a toy hypocritical 

I also think the reason Joel targets Jimmy so much is because they used to be brothers in laws and he used to think Jimmy was a great ally and friend so seeing someone with the same face and even some similarities in personality being a corrupt sheriff well it infuriates him to no end 

Scott: I will fight god.

Joel: I’m sorry but no.

Joel: Sure you may be verified on Twitter…

Joel: But are you verified in the eyes of GOD?

Jimmy: … I don’t need to be verified nor do I want to be verified in the eyes of god.

Could I ask for some smallidarity perhaps… (esmp2 maybe) /nf

Woah totally unexpected request from me, who would have guessed

never in a million years could I have foreseen this! /silly

here you go, the sillies! I freestyled their designs, but I think they came out really well and I’m actually really proud of these!

Idk I just think they are cute! And I really like how joel’s hair came out in particular, I might use that on my main design! And thank you sm for the asks these guys are just so silly this was really fun to draw. Plus one more vote for biggri nation yay!

This is for Han specifically (oh my gosh you have no idea how many tries it took to spell specifically lol). Shadowbeans marriage! I decided that they should both wear dresses because dresses are more fun to draw and also I kind of suck at drawing suits.

Sigh… I miss empires. Big fish wife and tiny clay husband.

I was rewatching Joel’s esmp 1 because I wanted to. So I did a little drawing.

That’s all! Just a silly doodle, I’ve decided that not every drawing I post has to be something special, sometimes it can just be something simple like this lol.

Jimmy's and Joel's Afterlife SMP episode 7 spoilers!

(Also Empires spoilers)

*TALKING ABOUT CHARACTERS ONLY, NOT CCs!!!*

I was so certain it was either gonna be Scott or Sausage to kill our server's local cat jesus (based on Jimmy's streams).

I guess Jimmy reverse kidnapping (surprise adoption!) failed lol.

Anyways theory time, sorry ya'll but I'm pumping out ideas rn. Just gotta wait until exams are over to unleash hell on this blog!!

So, in Empires, Joel has a familiar connection to both Lizzie and Jimmy (his wife and brother-in-law).

And in both their recent death on AL, he is present. So we all kinda agree on the fact, after everyones finales, Jimmy and Lizzie lost themselves and memories again, Joel basically became that "good guy goes and abandon morals" (man lost his family, friends and that big castle in like 5 minutes)

->Joel became the mad king.

How can you be a mad king without at least killing your families for unintentionally abandoning you amirite? He doesn't remember his past life but the regrets of that life transfered to this one like a sort of whisper in the back of the head that gets louder everytime

People will focus on orge!Joel but I, who still has not gotten over empires finales, will cling onto any theories of empires as long as my brain still functions

[ WIP ] Empires, but it’s Pokemon

Had this AU stewing for quite a while!! I have many thoughts, but I don’t know what to do with them entirely.

But! I do have these pokemon teams!! Most of them, anyway. I may be able to make an entire region, but I sadly cannot make an entire dex of mons. I believe there’s a tumblr up for that regional making. I also could not do or at least list the whole teams for everyone on the bottom end, since their vibes are hard to match ( Well, Lizzie and Jimmy are easy, but I’m not listing them yet?? ) so if you want to suggest some mons for them, please do!!

Now.. Welcome to the Imperia Region!

Abosoultly amazing and incredible. Light swearing

Idc what everyone says JOELS FINALE WAS COOL!! I think some people just have to accept that some empires creators don’t feel as comfortable doing a lot of in depth lore and that’s fine!! Personally I think empires is about the creators giving us something to run with and make our own by making silly head-canons or writing our own stories based off the world and characters they’ve given us. If you really want in depth lore watch someone else but let other people be a little silly with it. Also as a hardcore jeremyism lover I’m just glad we got more jeremy
