Two Of My OC's, Solstice (left) And Eternal (right)

"Isn't this what you wanted?

Time sure feels like it's running out

Just finish what you started

Queen of nothing, wearing

Such a heavy crown"

(Song - Queen of Nothing by The Crane Wives)

For those of you who have read Scythe by Neal Shusterman AND know the Life series, hear me out here:

Scar as a Scythe. The man so afraid to kill now the one sentenced to bring death to every. Single. Person.

And his final test would be to redo Third Life, same ending fight and everything, except this time, he wins.

I don't care who does it, I just need this to exist 😭

So...Martyn's latest Misadventures episode, huh?? The FLASHBACKS I had.

Martyn's Misadventures episode "The Man of Many Guilds" (the latest one) spoilers ahead!

The fact that Sausage warned Martyn that his death was going to be painful, but this was what was needed for Martyn to have permission to kill people?

The way that Martyn stood crouched with his head bowed as Sausage killed him, and how his last words before Sausage hit him were "this feels familiar"?

Martyn was on the receiving end this time.

I'm going crazy.

Kind of strange how the season Martyn won was the only season Ren was not in.

Did Ren see his win coming and manipulate the Watchers into letting him stay away, only to reward Martyn his crown at the end?

I dunno, I just feel like there's something to that.

I have an idea.

It’s an Empires AU based on the version of the song The Dark-Eyed Sailor from The Dragon Prince by Atillion (link and lyrics below cut).

After the fall of Empires, the ocean’s collapse is slowly causing Jimmy and Lizzie to lose their souls, since they’re so attached to the water. They lose all memory of being Seablings and now all they want is power and control over what’s left of the ocean. Its fall has also torn them of almost all their powers, meaning that neither of them can breathe underwater anymore.

So they fight.

Even from the start, the battle is hopeless. Lizzie is infinitely more powerful than Jimmy and they both know that she will win.

Yet Jimmy still fights.

Lizzie ruthlessly attacks him, weakening him to the point where he can barely swim, yet he still fights, because only he should rule the ocean.

There are several points at which Jimmy almost drowns, but his need for power pushes him forward. He’s able to do a fair amount of damage to Lizzie, but it was never enough.

After hours of draws, Lizzie is able to hold him under the water with her trident. His last words when he is still above the surface are, “The sea shall bow to me!”

Jimmy, the codfather, brother of the ocean queen, has drowned.

Lizzie wins, as they both knew she always would.

But there is nothing more to rule, for her empire has fallen.

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down in the wicked depths below

Lost at sea, the sailor cried

I will not drown, and I will not die

The ocean's rule I dare defy

The sea shall bow to me!

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down in the wicked depths below

The fog pressed in, the ice did freeze

The sails caught nary a whisper'd breeze

But to his pride the sailor seized

The sea shall bow to me!

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down in the wicked depths below

The ship it sank, its hull full tore

The sailor he could swim no more

But even as he drowned, he swore

The sea shall bow to me!

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down to the depths

Drown in the depths

Drown in the wicked depths below

From the Ashes

Based on the hybrid ideas of @fifthhaemony! I love the idea of Jimmy as a phoenix so I had to draw him

Was I researching bird anatomy late at night for this? Yes. Do I have any regrets? Absolutely not

All the lonely people,

where do they all come from?

All the lonely people…

where do they all belong?

(song - Eleanor Rigby by The Beatles) (but the version I had stuck in my head while drawing this was the cover by Cinematic Pop)

Some SL!Gem art I drew a while ago because I love her red skin

I realized halfway through drawing this that her yellow life skin doesn't have a cape but it was too late to turn back so I just went with it lol, I actually think it flows better with it

(click image for better quality)

A quick fWhip drawing because he deserves more attention :)

Not really an ask, but it's nice to see someone actually appreciating The Acolyte. It doesn't deserve all the hate it gets and, in my opinion, is an amazing show. So sad it got cancelled but at least we have some of it to cherish. Thank you for spreading the thankfulness for this amazing show!

Thank you so much for your comment! We're so happy to see that you love The Acolyte too. It really didn’t deserve all the hate it got! And yes, even though it was cancelled, we’re not giving up! We’re fighting for a season 2 💪✨ We have a website with different ways to help support the renewal savetheacolyte.com Honestly, The Acolyte fandom is just the sweetest 💫 Thank you so much for the support!! 💕
