#jimnoth au

[prismadog]

heeeeyyyyy

I finally finished the concept sketches for the emperors of Empires season 1, for my Jimnoth au fic to Love my Enemy. It's taken me like half a month to complete just the sketches cause there are so many little details and design choices that I wanted to include for some of the characters.

fyi, these are just the basic sketches so they're not very refined and on many of them, you'll see nipples and toes peeking through where there are clothes. I plan to clean them up at a later date and refine them, maybe even add color but we'll see.

anyway, here's the concepts! and because this is going to be a long post, I'll put it under a line. their heights will also be typed out below each picture in both inches and centimeters.

Empires Cast - Full Height Chart

Shrub - 4'3" / 129.5 Katherine - 5'4" / 162.6 Joel - 5'8" / 172.7

[theminecraftbee]

you ever have an AU idea in the shower and come up with a fic summary in your head for a fic you’ll probably never write?

anyway, fic working title “go fish”: in one universe, xornoth sees a very corruptible king with a dysfunctional support network, and chooses his side as the one where he possesses sausage. in this universe, however, he sticks around a little longer before deciding on his pawns, and sees the equally corruptible other side of the conflict, sees his brother apparently has a Thing for said very corruptible other side, and goes. yeah, sure. the codlands seem like equally decent a place to launch an invasion from. what could possibly go wrong?

in hindsight, this was a bad move, but by the time xornoth realizes this, everything has gotten far, far stupider than anyone is prepared to deal with. oh dear. oh deer. oh cod.

that’s right, it would be a corrupted jimmy comedy. presuming I still know how to write long form comedy. featuring an unwilling and unsuspecting xornoth redemption via him accidentally getting attached to the codvengers. do I have time to write this? probably not. do I remember how to write the empires cast well enough for this? hell if I know. is it another idea for my back burner pile of ideas? hell yeah, plus anyone who wants can take this idea (hell I know jimnoth was a thing people wrote sometimes, something similar probably already exists). do I keep conceiving of aus where jimmy is imminently possessable? yes, I don’t know why,

#anyway not tagging this for now it’s not enough of a real idea #I just think Xornoth unwillingly getting dragged into a codlands buddy comedy would be VERY FUNNY. #unfortunately I also know my track record with fics that start as comedies so

Lovers of cursed AU's and normal AU's alike, I bring you my arrangedmarriage!AU that I fell in love with. Strap in, it's a bit long :D

So basically in the AU Jimmy is Lizzie's brother and they are from the Ocean empire. When they were younger, their fathet had arranged marriages for the both of them, but they weren't told about it. Lizzie had married Joel and that was it. But then the council asks Lizzie as the queen, what will they do about the marriage between the ocean kingdon (Jimmy) and the lost empire (Joey). Lizzie promises Jimmy she will Joey.

Lore wise, those two kingdoms were at war for a very long time and the mers were nearly wiped out, which is why the marriage proposal was originaly written, to make sure the ocen empire survives. Today, tge situation is reversed, if Lizzie wanted, her and Joel's troops would wipe the lost empire from the map. So Jimmy has to decide if he really wants to start a years old conflict again, just because he doesnt want to marry Joey.

So Jimmy proposed to at least visit his "future husband", to give him a chance. But it's bad. Joey and Lizzie keep threatening each other and Joey clearly hates Jimmy. So Jimmy's looking for alternatives, ways to end the conflict in peace. During a huge argument Joey basically says "The only reason I'm doing this is to save my kingdom, but if you want me to be the bad guy so badly, I'll gladly oblidge. Go on, play martyr for someone who has nothing to lose by killing innocent lives. I'm sure they'll all thank you."

Anyway, they have to announce their marriage at the meeting of the kings (monthly event) and everyone can clearly tell there's no love there, not even friendship. The wither rose alliance teases Jimmy about the wedding. It's so akward and uncomfortable and Jimmy has to leave with Joey, as his fiance.

In the following month Jimmy tries to big brain the marriage and find alternatives, that he could present at the meeting. So when the gather again, he proposes an ambitious plan: "The treaty says that the second child of the ocean king will marry the jungle king's son, unless any of them are married beforehand." so Jimmy presents the maps and the families and then says that if he and Joey marry the Rivendell twins, then they have a mediator for the conflict and they don't have to fight. Some kings don't like that, because it would make the alliance of all the kingdoms too big. Katherine loves it.

Joey is a bit mad, because he had admited to Jimmy in a moment of weakness that he likes Xornoth. Jimmy had met Scott a few times. The elfs laugh at Jimmy too and Xornoth mockingly proposed to Jimmy, to prove his plan was naive and stupid. And Jimmy's angry. He spent so much time, so much effort, he's throwing himself into a loveless marriage. So to the shock of everyone and out of spite he says "Thank you prince Xornoth, I Jimmy of the Ocean empire accept your proposal." and slams the door and leaves.

Jimmy goes to a balcony and freaks out, because Scott and Joey looked both hurt by it. Joey will murder him for trying to marry his crush. Scott will hate him now for sure and "Why did I do that?!" His angsty boy phase is interrupted by the Wither rose alliance who come to "congratulate" him on his new engagement and only the girls sound genuine. As per tradition, Scott invites Jimmy to Rivendell to "meet his future husband properly"

So Jimmy takes his things from the lost empire, trying to avoid Joey, because it looked like they were starting to bond (Joey liked Jimmy's plan to marry the twins and even joked he would help Jimmy woo Scott) and now he betrayed him. The last part I have for the AU, is that Jimmy slowly befriends Xornoth and after the discovery that Xornoth likes Joey, but he's just a bit much sometimes, he decides to wingman them.

The ultimate wingman move Jimmy pulls is by approaching both Joey and Xornoth with another proposal - A three way marriage. "I might not marry for love, but I think you should have the chance." and they both accept. So the next month Jimmy reannounces his marriage for the 3rd time. Now it's up to Scott to make a move :)

Bonus bits:

Jimmy: "Remember my stupid plan to avoid war? The plan when we marry the elf twins? The plan that would never work? The plan you opposed? That plan!"

Scott at the altar: Jimmy please, just say "I do"

Jimmy: "This is my villain speech and I want no interruptions. You see I've recently had three fiancees-"

Xornoth: turns to Joey "Are you sure you still want him as your best man?"

#empiresblr #empires smp #solidaritygaming #joey graceffa #scott smajor #dangthatsalongname #xornoth #jornoth #jimnoth #flower husbands #au idea #fanfic #I think this au could be a lot of fun #I'm naming it: #Your turn AU

[riobug]

For the Jimmy breaks Xornoth out of the Nether au, Xornoth ends up hiding the fact he's Xeor's champion and becomes a guard or advisor to Jimmy. This means he never get into a relationship with Joey, as said emperor sees him as not very powerful, and Scott, who was raised on the bigotry view that demons were the spawn of Xeor and therefore bad, never even considers Jimmy as an Ally, much less a lover. Result is Jimnoth. ☀️

why are my anons full of jimnoth truthers how did you get here /nm

#this is so funny #why are you drawn to ME #empires smp #empire smp #solidarity gaming #xornoth #jimnoth #rio answers :o

[prismadog]

guess who just finished the refined line-art for their Jimnoth au...that's right, it's me, I got the character concepts drawn. they're still uncolored (and they'll probably remain that way for a long time, but hey, I got them drawn at least)

I also plan at a later date to make some posts regarding the characters' backgrounds, not seriously long posts like this (hopefully), but kinda just the basics like their family or empire - there is SO much that's locked up in my brain that needs to be spilled.

there's several images below - the full height chart plus close-ups - and I'm going to include some details below each image. this is going to be a bit of a long post, but hope y'all enjoy!

[from left to right] row 1: Shrub, Katherine, Joel, Fwhip, Gem, Joey, Sausage row 2: Pixlriffs, Pearl, Scott, Xornoth, Jimmy, Lizzie

Shrub - 4'3" / 129.5 Katherine - 5'4" / 162.6 Joel - 5'8" / 172.7

Shrub

Shrub has many scars from her childhood because she grew up in the Nether in a crimson forest. she was raised as a farmer but knew a good deal about fighting because a close friend used to be a warrior.

the piercings she has on her ears are made of gold - gold keeps piglins calm, though her earrings wouldn't have been enough. before coming to the Overworld, she had gold bands on her wrists.

the mushroom hat and boots are just for aesthetics because of where she grew up [these may be colored like the crimson mushrooms later on]. the gnomes of her village had mushroom accessories to help them blend in with their surroundings.

she has a very distinct lack of breasts due to her being a part of a very androgynous, "sexless" race - they still have the concept of gender but they don't have the male/female sexes. this means that Shrub essentially has pecs instead of breasts, very muscled ones because she is a tiny strong boi who could bench press an average man

Katherine

Katherine is a faerie with cat features - it is very common for the faeries of the Overgrown to have features of some sort of animal.

she walks around barefoot because she likes the feel of the grass on her feet, but also because it makes her feel grounded - she will wear shoes on occasion, specifically when she's going to other empires

Katherine has several piercings, something that was influenced by her childhood friend Scott - some are silver and some are gold.

the bands she wears are engraved with blessings from her people - long life, love, good will, strength, and courage. this is a common type of gift from one faerie to another.

due to her cat-eyes, she can see very well in the dark, and she has exceptional hearing thanks to her large ears.

Joel

Joel is a very chill guy who wears light, but very detailed clothing - those of Mezalea live in a hot and humid area and believe it would be suicidal to wear heavy clothing (like the real King of Mezalea on the youtubes)

he doesn't care much about shoes because he likes the feel of the clay and moss on his feet - he will however wear shoes on occasion if he's traveling to any cold biome (ie Scott's empire).

the symbol of his people and his empire is the Mother Tree [design was inspired by the Celtic tree of life] and he wears it proudly - it was the Mother Tree who allowed Mezalea to blossom and it was also the Mother Tree that breathed life into Joel himself [more on this later in a future post]

he is a bit on the thicker side due not only to how bountiful the food is in Mezalea - their main food source is horse - but also because he works a lot with large, heavy blocks of clay and moves statues around near-daily. [not shown] his hands and clothes are often stained with clay because he likes to sculpt figures and statues.

Fwhip - 5'10" / 177.8 Gem - 5'11" / 180.3

Fwhip

Fwhip is a mischievous guy that wears quite a bit of clothing for not only aesthetic but also out of necessity because of his work in the labs - the scarf was made by his (and his siblings') mother when he was little.

he, like his twin Gem and his little brother Sausage, have some form of dragon features because while their mother was human, their father was not - however, for much of Fwhip's life, he only had the horns, the wings came later on when the Grimlands blessed him with power when Xornoth tried to corrupt the land.

Fwhip broke his right horn in a lab accident when he was a teen - he thinks it makes him look badass.

[not pictured] he has some scarring in multiple places - burns and cuts - from various incidents during his experiments.

Gem

Gem wears thicker clothing because the Crystal Cliffs can get quite cold - any hats she may wear all have holes made in them to allow room for her horns.

unlike her twin, Gem does not have wings, but instead she has a near-endless supply of magic, something that neither of her bothers naturally possess - this was a point of contention between them all in their younger years.

the moon and stars she wears represent her empire of the Crystal Cliffs

she carries around a Wither Rose that's been preserved with magic - it's something that she and her brothers share, though they have their roses in safe-keeping in their homes.

Joey - 5'11" / 180.3 Sausage - 6'0" / 182.9

Joey

Joey is an avian with multi-colored wings [not shown] - his family is the only one in the Maztec empire that is avian, everyone else is a cat-person.

he is also fairly light, not bird-light, but just much lighter than the average person due to being an avian.

he wears very little, very loose clothing because 1) it makes him look hot as fuck and 2) the jungle he resides in is hot as fuck

the bands and other jewelry are common-place in the Maztec empire, as well as tattoos - tattoos are seen as a sign of strength and beauty, strength because it takes a strong person to endure the tattooing process and beauty because they're just into that.

the symbol that adorns all of Joey's clothing represents everlasting life - something his people worship unconditionally. the other symbol that sometimes accompanies the symbol of immortality [the flame/heart thing on the sash] represents the Eternal Flame, the Heart of the Maztec empire.

Sausage

Sausage, like his siblings, has dragon horns, though his are much smaller than theirs' because he's several years younger than they are - the three hellions of the Wither Rose Alliance are a few years older than one would assume.

the scar on his face was given to him in a training accident when he was a child - he almost lost his eye but thanks to the clerics and mages in Mythland, they were able to heal his eye.

he's a bit heavier than his siblings because Mythland loves their feasts and festivals, also he has quite a bit of muscle from how hard he trains with a sword.

the symbols on his gloves are a sign of his contract with Xornoth - he gave up his soul to the demon just as the demon gave their soul to Exor.

Pixlriffs - 6'0" / 182.9 Pearl - 6'4" / 193.0

Pixlriffs

Pixlriffs looks older than the other rulers, but that doesn't mean he's the oldest by any means, or does it? he plays the role of father to not only Pixandria but also his family/alliance members - Joel, Lizzie, and Jimmy.

he has lightning markings from his right hand down to his left foot - these aren't scars or tattoos but actually a blessing from the thunder gods marking him as their Champion. he is also blessed by the Goddess of Death and is Her prophet, though, he doesn't have any markings to represent that, not that he needs any. She instead gives him visions and a deep connection with the Vigil.

the clothing of Pixandria is simple, lightweight, and usually colored in neutral tones, specifically in the range of white to sand-colored. the designs are embroidered by hand and many include the symbol of Pixandria - the Death's-head Hawkmoth.

each of the charms and symbols on his clothing, minus the star on his headpiece and the copper symbol on his bands, are designs taken from the Death's-head Hawkmoth itself.

[extra fact] as well as beekeeping, Pixandria is home to Death's-head Hawkmoths and vultures, and both are seen as sacred creatures.

Pearlescent Moon

Pearl was originally a scarecrow built from cloth and straw, made by a lonely farmer who wanted to protect his crops. she spent many years protecting his fields and wished desperately to return the love the farmer had shown her through his tributes and gifts - the most extravagant being a simple pearl that he fashioned into a necklace.

the God of the Sun and of Life, granted her wish and she became the Guardian of the Harvest. from then on she watched over the farmer's fields, and later the fields of anyone who settled nearby. the people gave her the title "Queen" because they saw her as the protector and ruler of Guilded Hilanthia.

she has large golden wings that grew over time due to the magic in the land and the blessings of the Harvest. they, like the rest of her, are speckled from being under the sun for countless hours.

her clothes are very simple and light for ease of movement, whether she's strolling through the fields or protecting her lands and people from danger.

her symbols are the moon for the pearl around her neck, and sunflowers for her loyalty to her people and because it symbolizes the harvest.

Scott - 6'9" / 205.7 Xornoth - 6'9" / 205.7

Scott

Scott is an elf with large snowy owl wings, something that is fairly common in his family - there are other elves that have wings but they are the minority. unlike Joey, he is not an avian, he's just a winged elf.

the symmetrical golden antlers are a blessing from Aeor and mark Scott as His Champion.

beauty and fashion are very important to the elves of Rivendell and many will wear as much jewelry as they can. Scott is no exception - he has multiple piercings with glittering diamond charms, and to match his earrings, he had charms and jewelry crafted for his antlers.

the clothing of Rivendell is thick and trimmed in fur because while the elves are a hardy people, they can still get cold from living high up in the mountains. for most outfits, there are symbols of Aeor and Rivendell stitched into the clothing.

Scott, while being on the thinner side, is actually quite toned beneath the layers of warm clothing - he needs to be in order to support his large wings and fly with them.

Xornoth

Xornoth is currently a demon, though, they once were an elf just like their younger twin Scott. and like their brother, they once had snowy owl wings, but those were stolen by the God Exor - [not shown] there are ragged scars on Xornoth's back where their wings used to be.

Exor also blessed Xornoth with their own set of antlers, though unlike Scott's, their antlers are twisted and covered in thorn-like spines. after they were blessed by the dark god and became His Champion, their body twisted as well and transformed into that of a demon.

they have several piercings, a product of their previous life as an elf of Rivendell, though the jewelry they wear is far from fancy - it's just simple silver and gold. the bands they wear are engraved with their contract to Exor. the rings on their fingers are the only thing they kept after becoming Champion - the one on their left index finger is actually a gift from their brother.

Xornoth has many scars due to the hundreds of years they spent in exile in the Nether. they literally fought to survive, but was eventually able to become a force to be reckoned with that no resident of the Nether wanted to fight, save of course, for Shrub who's village was terrorized by the demon.

there's not many options to get new clothes so they wear a simple, stitched together skirt that they made with their own hands, not that they really care that much anymore about modesty. [I didn't wanna draw demon dick, hence, skirt]

Jimmy - 7'4" / 223.5 Lizzie - 8'0" / 243.8

Jimmy

Jimmy is one of two eggs remaining from a batch of hundreds - their parent was a mighty eldritch beast blessed by the Deity that ruled over the Ocean and the singular batch of eggs was a sign of their bond. sadly, the war between the gods Aeor and Exor killed their eldritch parent and crushed their seablings' eggs. he was raised by his elder sister, Lizzie, who hatched several years before he did.

[not shown] his hair is colored yellow to better fit in with the cod people but his actual hair color is a soft pink (much like Lizzie's minecraft skin), which goes well with the pearlescent pink scales that cover his body.

like his sister, he has quite a few scars gathered over the years from fights against the salmon, the worst one being the spiderweb scar over his left eye. this scar was one of the first he got, during the first salmon war when he was still a child, and because of it, he is actually blind in his left eye.

he's fairly muscular because swimming around in the ocean for hundreds, if not thousands, of years can really build up a person's body. though, he does actually have a bit of fat because the ocean is also a very cold place and fat is a natural defense against the cold.

his outfit is simple and lightweight, and fairly loose because he has the ability to transform his legs into a tail. he also has the ability to change his size, though it really only happens when he takes on his merfolk form [more on this in a future post]. he wears rain boots because 1) he thinks they're fashionable, 2) they're easy to take on and off, and 3) he lives in a swamp. as for his leggings, those were specially made for him and are designed to represent the Cod Empire.

he doesn't wear many accessories but what he does wear mean a lot to him - the cloth bracelet is stitched with symbols of his family/alliance - Lizzie, Joel, and Pixlriffs. the pins on his top and the buckle on his belt are gifts from the cod people, and the gold circlet on his head is a sign of his being the Cod Empire's ruler. the circlet is a direct replacement after the cod mask and helmet were stolen from him.

Lizzie

Lizzie is the eldest of the two remaining eggs from their parents, and has deemed herself Jimmy's guardian and caretaker - she did raise him from a hatchling afterall. she is actually the healthier of the two because during the destruction of the batch of eggs, Jimmy's was damaged and her's was not.

[not shown] her hair is sort of two-toned where soft pink gradiates into a soft blue. the scales that cover her skin are a pearlescent blue instead of pink like her brother's.

she's covered in scars from all the many years that she's lived in the oceans and fought off any dangers that would threaten her or her brother - the dangers in question are mostly from battles with the salmon that terrorize the ocean, but also fisherman and pirates.

because she's a merfolk, she doesn't have breasts like a human female would - there's no need for breasts, nor nipples to that extent, because merfolk hatch from eggs. she does, however, have what is essentially a nice set of pecs because she's very strong and gets quite the workout from swimming around the ocean.

her outfit is very loose and quite revealing because she, like many merfolk, doesn't really care much about being modest - they usually have tails anyway instead of legs so there's not really anything to hide. she really only wears shoes when she visits other empires, specifically those with more extreme biomes, ie, Rivendell, Pixandria, the Maztec empire, etc.

she doesn't wear much for jewelry but she does have a few pins - an axolotl and one from the Cod Empire. she also likes the fishing lures that she finds in the ocean - the hooks on the lures are filed down to a point where they're no longer dangerous. she does, however, have one main accessory that she cherishes and that's the cloth bracelet stitched with the symbols of her family/alliance - Jimmy, Joel, and Pixlriffs.

#empires smp fanfiction #jimnoth au #to love my enemy au #jimnoth character concepts lineart #prismadog art #this has been several months in the making due to lack of energy and getting obsessed with vault hunters #I'm actually really proud of finally finishing the lineart for the character concepts - now all I have to do is color them! #haha that's not gonna happen for awhile cause I need a break from this #I might work on some other artwork or start working on the rewrite for to love my enemy - I'm feeling in the mood to write

[prismadog]

almost done with Ocean Queen Lizzie's concept for the jimnoth au, but I gotta take a break and go to bed. but before I do, I wanna share one little thing...well...two little things

the lil guy on the left is part of the design while the lil guy on the right is the first concept for an axolotl pin/broach thingy that goes on Lizzie's dress (it'll make more sense when I upload the refined line-art)

I'm about 93-95% done with the line-art - I just have to add some clothing folds and Lizzie's scales - and when it's done, I'm def gonna upload it cause I'm really excited and happy with the concepts.

#jimnoth au #to love my enemy au #I'm still debating whether or not I want to spend even more time with coloring the concepts #the line-art has already taken me ages to complete and I imagine that the coloring would take an eternity #but maybe I could just block in the basic colors and not worry too much about making it look good? #idk I think I need to sleep on it some more - and speaking of sleep I really need to go to bed. it's 4 in the freaking morning #but I really wanted to share these lil axolotls

[prismadog]

after a whole day of struggles (and dicking around on my phone), I have finally finished 9 of 13 concept sketches for the emperors of Empires season 1. I think when I'm done with the initial sketches (only got 4 more to go), I'll get snapshots of them and share them here.

of course, I'll have more concepts to add later that include 24 of the hermits (doesn't include Gem or Pearl); and maybe some concepts for side characters like Misha (oc), Bubbles (Sausage's dog), Mother Wolf/wolves/Starlord, etc

but for now, I'm gonna take a little break to get something to eat, and then I'm gonna get back to work and draw Xornoth! and after XorXor will be Fwhip, Pixl, and Jimmy! then I can share the sketches :D

#empires smp au #to love my enemy #jimnoth au #i have been working on this for several days and I'm surprised my hand hasn't cramped up #I'll probably be working for even longer cause I want to draw the hermits too #but before the hermits I gotta get a height chart set up so I know how tall they are in relation to each other / the empires cast

[prismadog]

Jimnoth has once again taken over my brainspace (finally) but instead of working on the fic, I am drawing concept art for what the characters look like.

so far, I've finished about half of the designs and I think they've come out pretty good. currently on Joey rn and lemme tell yah, this boy is the bane of my existence - he's got a ridiculous amount of little details

#to love my enemy #jimnoth au #i think out of all the characters joey might be the most detailed - scott might come as a close second tho #i love lizzies design - it looks so cool #I'll upload the drawings when they're done - rn im only in the sketch phase

[prismadog]

I'm knackered

I just finished the refined line-art for the jimnoth au, and lemme tell ya, it was exhausting. I'll be uploading it sometime tomorrow but only after I've had a full night's sleep, and also figure out why tumblr won't let me add the full height chart image (maybe it's too big? idk)

g'night y'all

#jimnoth au #to love my enemy au

[prismadog]

I think it's time for my annual hobbit/lotr marathon run where I binge-watch the films (though, it's been quite a few years since I last marathoned them). been itching for some lotr content and I think it's finally time that I scratch that itch.

gonna work on the final sketches for the emperors of Empires (for the Jimnoth au fic) while the hobbit plays in the background. it's gonna be great and maybe, just maybe, I'll be able to focus long enough to draw more than two lines.

#the hobbit #lord of the rings #jimnoth au #to love my enemy

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I HAVE INTERNET AGAIN!!! I AM ALL POWERFUL, ALMIGHTY, AND UNSTOPPABLE! I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT ONLINE, WATCH WHATEVER I WANT! NO MAN WOMAN OR HUMAN BEAN OF ANY KIND CAN STOP ME!

actually, I'm just gonna catch up on rats smp, empires, and hermitcraft while working on the character concepts for my Jimnoth au, and then later play some Vault Hunters.

#prismadog update #I've been without internet for a week and it was driving me up the freaking wall #like I could find things to do like work on some unfinished art but I like to listen to music while doing so #but without internet I had to use the mobile youtube with data and that's never fun because of all the stupid ads #but I got internet again and can use wifi and I'm so damn happy about it that I could (figuratively) jump for joy

[prismadog]

I think tomorrow I'm gonna take a little break from vault hunters and instead work on some very neglected fanfics/fanart.

I got a few things I need to work on, specifically: the Creed of Gods and Men (xornoth adopts shrub au), a team rancher fic, to Love my Enemy (jimnoth au), and the character designs for said au.

#prismadog update #i also want to start the game plan for an old yugioh fanfic that i uploaded to ao3 - its a disaster and i wanna rewrite it.

[prismadog]

Guess what? I got a little something special for y'all!

If you guessed not ONE, but TWO story updates, then congrats! You're a winner! You get all my love and adoration and these cookies I found! 🍪🍪🍪 :D

That's right, I got two story updates for ya - to Love my Enemy and the Creed of Gods and Men. Link to the Found Family chapter update post here

I was in a serious writing mood [after binging several finale povs of Hermitcraft]. And peaking of Hermitcraft, I've included some more of those characters in alongside Bubbles in to Love my Enemy - they don't really do much as of yet other than "advise" some of the rulers.

Warnings: one singular swear word [and it's not from Lizzie or Xornoth for once]

Maybe feeding the corruption worked? He’ll have to keep an eye on it for a while to make sure, but if it’s anything like his little dude, then the Cod Empire won’t have to worry about any more crushed granaries or smashed homes.

Bubbles sighs, “I leave for a couple of days and you go and befriend the corruption.”

“Well, I don’t think we’re friends yet.”

“...Yet.” He looks like he wants to say something, his nostrils flare in that way they do when he’s gearing up for a lecture, but, he takes a deep breath and exhales.

#empires smp #empires smp fanfiction #to love my enemy au #jimnoth au #jimmy solidarity #bubbles / bdubs #corrupted poppy #other rulers and some hermitcraft characters #I would write them all out but meh - I don't feel like it

[prismadog]

so I'm back on my shit again

meaning, I've lost motivation to write fanfiction because I've gotten a bit frustrated with it :/ also been binging old Naked & Scared seasons [Impulse and Skizzleman's series]. so, y'know, def haven't been working on any stories. life's also gotten a bit in the way and by life, I mean mental health issues and now I've got this breathing problem, and my puppy's got some issues with her breathing too - thinning of the trachea but it's okay, the Vet gave her some pills and she's doing all right! :)

anyway, I'm not here to talk about life stuff, I'm here to talk about my fanfics - this post is more just to get some things cleared up in my brainspace.

I've been thinking a lot about said stories - the Found Family AU and the Jimnoth AU - and ya know what? I'm not happy with the Found Family story I've got so far. I'm also a little unhappy with the Jimnoth AU but it's mostly because of the side characters than the story itself - specifically the empires that I've placed some of the hermits in. but that's whatever, I can live with it.

so like Found Family: Shrub's background story is neat and all, there's a lot of worldbuilding, but I dunno, I thought I'd get through the story quickly and I'm just...not. There's a few things I'm not happy with and one of those things is how slow the progress is, also the title of the story - the Creed of Gods and Men. I want that title to be more for the series since there's at least a few parts to the full story - the corruption of Connell's soul, Shrub's life before she traveled to the world of Empires, and Shrub's life in Empires and the whole demon fiasco.

So, I think what I'm gonna do is put her background story on the backburner for now and focus on Shrub's life in the world of Empires. I might mess with the background story a bit, like changing the name and adjusting the content, but if I do, it'll be on the original document saved on my computer and not on the version uploaded to AO3.

I'm gonna try to write a few chapters of her in Empires, already got a nice prologue written, but I don't think I'll upload anything until I've got those first few chapters hashed out. I'll leave the background story up on AO3 for now but I'm not going to be updating it for awhile, not until I get things hashed out, sorry :/

hopefully I'll get back some of my motivation and get to work on the fanfics, and get those fics to a point where I'm happy with them.

hey, guess who's back with fic updates? that's right, it's me, ya boi, and I've got an update for y'all out there!

sorry that I haven't written lately, I had a bit of a burn out since that last artwork of the corrupted poppy I made [the painted one]. I've also been recording a couple of gaming sessions for a let's play but haven't really done anything with the videos yet [I'm nervous to start editing the footage videos, if I'm being honest].

hopefully I'm over the burn out, but we'll see. the Found Family au isn't going to be updated yet because I'm still hashing a few things out there, but at least I got one update, right?

and now! to Love my Enemy [Jimnoth au] with a chapter 10. it's mostly dialogue but it's kinda important dialogue? idk, it's hard to write interactions between a dozen+ people.

Warning: minor swearing, copious amounts of dialogue

His icy eyes glance over the rulers gathered at his table and he sits a little straighter on his throne, though, how he does that is beyond the mer when the elf is already as stiff as a board. “I know that there are many…disagreements…between some of you, but you need to put these matters aside when gathered.

“Outside of this hall, feel free to fight and murder to your heart’s content, but inside, we gather in the name of peace, of a temporary truce to all so that we may offer services and goods, and, currently, to find a solution to the demon menace.”

hey everybody! I wrote a thing!

It's not my Found Family AU content but it's certainly Empires! specifically, Xornoth and Jimmy!

warnings: there is suffocation in the first chapter but it's from an outsider's point of view. also some minor swearing.

They watch as he does so, and they watch as he straightens again, and they watch as he immediately sways on his feet. The stack of wood hits the ground again as he reaches out for leverage, hands finding purchase on the shulker box.

His breathing is shallow, coming out in short bursts.

What’s wrong with him?
