[Part 1 - Joel / Part 2 - Joey / Part 3 - Katherine / Part 4 - Sausage]

I ain't actually too happy with this, it. Had so many problems and set backs and things I just wasn't enjoying dealing with, so it is. Mid to me. Maybe I'll retry it soonish so I don't hate it forevers

ANYWAY! GEM! I watched her series a bit for the lore (and Redstone twins angst sorry not sorry) but I don't remember much so I struggled with this LMAO

I didn't have many irl inspirations other then the people's of the Andean mountains in Peru, and even then, it was mostly just. How her overcoat folds and clips IWHWIDBD everything else was just kinda what I thought would look nice

Her clothes have dragon scales on them as armor bc even if she's a healer she's also pretty scrappy, some of the potions on her person are def ones of harming LMAO

I also imagine she has other outfits but haven't drawn them yet cus I. Gave up! Simple as that LMAO

Coloring on this one was interesting, speedpaint below the cut ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Empirestober 2; Family

(Sorry it is so incredibly late. I knew my hubris, so I decided to do the prompt sets instead of dailies, but I underestimated said hubris and decided to draw 12 characters for the first one.)

Anyway, enjoy the hours of work I did just to make the joke with Scott in the bottom right.

ROUND 2 POLL 2

Skybling duo: Grian & Pearl

Dynamic: Siblings. Twins. Biological Family

Headcanons: Even as twins, Pearl is a minute older. (TBA?)

vs

Wither Rose Cousins: Gem & Fwhip & Pearl & Sausage

Dynamic: Cousins. Biological Family. Adopted Family. (Empires 1)

Headcanons: Fwhip and Gem are twins, Sausage is their younger brother. Pearl is their cousin. She grew up with them in their family house. As kids Sausage was jealous of the twins doing everything together (even when they didnt want to) so he claimed Pearl as his twin despite being older than him (she's like "the middle child") (TBA?)

Everyone always portrays Gem as this responsible mother hen character when in episode 22 of Sausage’s esmp1 series she literally says “I’m not a thief, I just own everything by default”

Like hello?? She’s sassy?? Just because the rest of her alliance is batshit insane doesn’t mean she’s normal T-T

The Wizard of the Crystal Cliffs, Geminitay

if it’s been a while since i’ve posted art. no it hasn’t. (lying)

[waytooobsessedwithmcyt]

*to my mom, who doesn't know what Empires SMP even is* ok no you don't understand, Gem and Fwhip are like the two most self preserving characters who have never done anything not selfish, but they would both die for each other so they like literally see each other as extensions of themselves

You didn't want her to see you like this.

You peel your eyes open at the shouting- spotting a blur of purple and green as your sister descends from the sky on glimmering magic wings that remind you of a shooting star. There's a fury in her face that melts into worry as she stumbles to land in front of you. You did not control where you fell, but you recognize the walls- you're in one of the Blood Wells, a tear the demon left in the earth. Red mist clings to her clothes as she reaches out to cradle your face in her hands.

"Gem-" you cough, wishing you could hide the blood dripping down your chin, wishing the horror in her eyes would go away, please, why is it always there, every time she's looked at you for months, "Gem, I'm okay."

Tears stream down her cheeks and the Look she gives you might as well be your mother looking down at you with her hands on her hips, disappointment dripping from her every gesture, right down to the arch of her brow. Gem's anger is louder than your mother's ever was. She doesn't believe you. That's fair. (You don't really believe you either.)

"I'm fine," you stress, as your limbs ache and your back wails in agony and white-hot pain shoots through you at every point, (like the demon is in your mind again but this time it's a million times worse). You cough, blood splattering on your hands- on her hands- your lungs rattle. Why are you unlucky enough to be a vampire that breathes?

"Fwhip," your sister says, and oh gods, she sounds like she's underwater, (that can't be good), and you try to be a good brother and keep your eyes open, but it hurts, it hurts, it hurts-

"I'm okay," you say again, weak even to yourself, but you interrupted her and she glares and you obediently snap your mouth shut. Then open it again. You need to breathe, unfortunately, and each raspy breath passes through your throat like claws scraping on a chalkboard.

She's saying something. Magic maybe? Your eyes close. Fireworks are exploding across your skin, the pins and needles thick and unrelenting. No wonder she came so quickly, she could probably hear your screams from the Crystal Cliffs without need for a messenger.

"You're gonna be okay," she murmurs, closer to your ear now, watery and trembling. There's movement by your fingers that feels like her hand holding yours. It hurts. You don't let go.

She's murmuring something- a spell, you think, recognizing the shape of ancient grimmish as it passes her lips- and the stabbing, relentless pain begins to melt, passing over you like waves on a shoreline. Manageable. Quiet. But not gone.

You still can't open your eyes.

Your sister grips your hand. She's crying, (again. Why do you always make her cry?), as another spell passes her lips. The ocean waves seem to press in then, kneading you like dough. You can't open your eyes. You're falling asleep. You can't help it. You don't know where you're going to wake up. You're scared to wake up.

Your sister holds your hand, pressing her lips to your forehead.

"You're okay," she sobs, "you're gonna be okay."

reblog if you like Geminitay 😎👍

close ups under the cut <3

[your-local-crypt1d]

Pearl: I think Gem was right.

Sausage: I'm surprised she hasn't marched in here to say 'I told you so.'

fWhip: she wouldn't do that.

Gem: You're right, fWhip. For once in your life, you're 100% right. I would never say that.

Gem: *turns around, the shirt she's wearing saying 'I told you so' on the back*

little comic thing. context is that life that doesn’t rely on magic to exist came into being around 3.7 billion years ago. teehee

too many people have made seablings hatch when there’s human civilization which is canon divergent, so i decided to make everything right by making them really very super duper ancient
