Jimmy’s room Is a giant bubble bath/ water park the water is full bubbles and there are slides everywhere as a reference to the shoots and ladders board game
Joels is a floating area with swords and a sculpture garden filled with his original artwork ( he and Lizzie spend time there just like they did in their original garden)
Lizzies room changes the most and is the most modern so It’s something like a movie theater and since jimmy’s room isn’t safe she keeps Norman there ( he is pink like lion)
inspired by @playername-player-of-games gemcyt works
A word about the theory that ranboo is the past time traveler I theorize ranboo was the time traveler and that the overseer’s got attached to him witch is why they are very possessive of Karl and want the new time traveler to spend more time with them they are projecting onto him and fighting over him like parents fighting over a child in a custody battle bad talking each other to Karl and warning Karl to not trust the other there’s also the detail that the the time traveler some how effects the appearance of the two worlds so I’m thinking that that works both ways and the other world affects the appearance of the time traveler witch would explain why he is split down the middle and the colors that are on the sides are black and red and white and green
GOING TO LOSE MY FUCKING MIND

false goddess of mystery and adventure and new beginnings because she is lost her memory and is a very adventurous person also do to the lost memories she basically started from square one when she came to empires
Joel is a small short range hunting knife. a brutal close quarters weapon that always results in The users hands getting bloodied but etho wields him like a ninja would a throwing knife because he looks like kakashi who is a ninja. somehow this actually works out for them
Jimmy is a chain whip with a lantern that has a flame in it that loudly explodes everything it touches as a result every person that has ever partnered with him has run for the hills the moment they realized how dangerous it is to control and others that already know dread having to work with such a destructive weapon. even his friends don’t want the potential catastrophe that could result except for tango who loves explosions and thinks the chains give him a fabulous aesthetic
Grian is a bow and arrow not just the bow but also the arrows if scar shoots an arrow as far as he can then grian will be able to tell him where it landed and what is happening in the area. The bow materializes a new arrow when ever an arrow has been shot so scar can shoot multiple arrows that land in many different locations but Grian can’t be everywhere at once so he can only choose to be present at one location so when ever he transfers his consciousness to a single arrow he has to leave scar unattended as you can imagine he doesn’t like doing this
White Connie would be more like her mother Instead of giving Steven patient advice she would give strict lectures
like in the show she would come to understand her mom more but in the cannon of the show she does that by putting herself in her moms shoes and piecing together her reasons for being a strict mom but white Connie would not have to imagine being in her shoes because white Steven would have a big head and be very out of touch she would be more authoritative and blunt instead of being gentle and carful with her words like a mom she would be straightforward like a teacher
In the beginning she would have Steven control her so he can handle the stressful introductions and making the friends she would quickly see the problems with that plan and try to make friends on her own
The relationship between Connie and Steven would be a lot more rocky they would have problems with an uneven power balance Connie would treat Steven like a child that needed to be watched and Steven would be more possessive
Steven would underestimate Connie because she is human he would try to keep her safe and as far away from gem stuff as possible It would be like full disclosure but he would actually go through with it because of that Connie would not be an awesome sword fighter instead she would be a detective type in the show she was already very inquisitive an example of how that would contribute to her role in the plot would be the time she and Steven went to the library to find out about the palaquin as the story progressed she would grow suspicious of Steven and focus on that skill and use her intelligence to find out what Steven was hiding and when she found out she would be the strategist basically instead of liking fantasy adventure books she would like detective mysteries
Do to Steven being more distant and the lesson she learned early on by being controlled to make friends ending with her learning that the best way to make friends is to be your self and put your self out there she would have more friends and be more comfortable in social situations white Steven would be jealous
Later in the show Steven would let the power go to his head and as a result stat to abuse his power and Connie would be the one to set him straight with the power of words
Instead Of a sword she would use words like the speech she gave to the crystal temps or the amazing lecture she gave in the final episode of future this Steven would not be good at speeches so that would be her thing
Connie would be very manipulative in the show she is a good psychoanalysis here she would also have experience dealing with Steven and be more confident and have more practice with social interactions
she would be the diplomat slash psychologist just like Steven was in the the show
When she got a job she would be either a psychologist at a hospital working with doctors like her mom or a detective that works with police and security guards like her dad
Man-eating sirens have plagued these waters for as long anyone can remember. Now, as you sail across the ocean with your crew, siren songs begin to entrance everyone on board. In a desperate move to save the others, you try something no one else has tried before; you sing along with them.
I think if technoblade where to have a superpower in a superpower au his power would be the ability to turn temporary indestructible and inhumanly strong but only when he tastes blood and he could only target the person he took blood from like a wild boar relentlessly charging at a single he would only be able to get control of himself if time round out or his target was dead
I see fics where Wilbur has a charm speak ability but I think a power for him could be less about controlling people to do what he wants and more about making them feel emotional by giving them emotions projecting them out wards through music when thinking about this I was inspired by blue diamond from Steven universe when he wants others to feel sad he uses his guitar to create a dark gloomy blue water like aura when he’s projecting happiness fluffy sky blue clouds that look like sheep fuzz appear from the source of the sound he can use them to float when he’s angry neon electric blue lightning and when he’s cold and emotionally checked out there’s an icy blizzard that is colored nearly grayish white with a tint of blue
The aU started as me having fun by typing out the most basic god types and giving them to the emperors I thought they fit best with (I tried to do at least two domains each)
So that was the jumping off point but the domains changed and some that I wrote down didn’t get used an example of that is how I wrote down luck but never matched it to anyone
In the beginning I used only the most well known Greek gods but also I added the trickster god type based on Loki
For some i added some more niche stuff like fwhip I matched him with fire but I couldn’t decide on a second among the Olympians So I took revenge from nemesis a lesser known Greek goddess
For Katherine i couldn’t see her with any of them and didn’t want to shoehorn her into a role that didn’t fit or give her a domain that made more sense for one of the other emperors to have so I went to tv tropes and looked at the stock gods page where I found god of order
For jimmy death was the obvious choice but i originally added childbirth birth as well because of my rule of giving at least two per emperor but I found it more interesting for there to be one god with only one domain
Joey was wealth and war I kept wealth but have drifted away from war so there is not really a war god in the god au I mean war can result from almost all of there domains but there is no god of war
I based shubble on pan and the mother goddess types that create life but I would like to be clear shubble doesn’t have the mother symbolism nor is she the one that created life
Honestly I didn’t remember false until after I had divided the domains throughout the emperors and was already satisfied with so I took what I knew about her character and didn’t base her on a specific god
Then I got more individualized like how gem was originally a god of knowledge I made it more specific so now it’s teaching and religion

My headcannon is that as a child jimmy was a homeless orphan ignored by everyone
After his mother died he lost hope and just focus on staying alive until one day a group of kids visited the village it was big news and everyone came out to see the sight because the kids that visited where royalty from far off kingdoms future rulers
Jimmy saw how everyone stopped what they where doing just so they could get a glimpse of the promising youngsters and he was struck with longing to be noticed like them
From that day onward he made it his goal to become an emperor so people would love him like his mother used to
he dreamed up tumble town a place where he wouldn’t be an outcast and where people would respect him
He chose to settle in a dessert because in the town when it would rain due to not having a shelter he would get soaked and his belongings would risk being ruined
Because he was homeless he never when to school he only recently learned to read
In the town where he grew up there was a very wealthy family that had a young daughter named kirsty
kirsty was always told by her snobby parents to stay faraway from the dirty scrawny kid she would see sometimes around town and she did as she was told until one day she got lost in the woods she was scared and alone but then she found a cave in the cave was jimmy’s “home” she didn’t question it she was taught not to question anything if it benefited her
She took a look around and found many things food taken from the garbage, a poorly made cowboy hat and drawings of a sherif surrounded by townsfolk and adorned by them all
Then Jimmy returned at first he was embarrassed but then she started to ask about his plans and he started sharing the two of them talked until the Time came for him to show her back but that wasn’t the end of there friendship it was just the beginning
Kirsty would stop by whenever she could not telling her parents of course they would approve of her friend she was supposed to be learning to be proper lady a perfect example of a southern bell in the making not out climbing trees or digging in trash for food and other things to help jimmy
as the days went by she started to feel trapped jimmys enthusiasm inspired her his want for more made her want more
She encouraged jimmy to share his plans with others they started to recruit people Jimmys passion of infectious
Soon enough they started to put the plan into motion kirsty funded most of it but the others helped to so the pioneers set out to create tumble town
Jimmy has dedicated his life to tumble town and as you can imagine is terrified he will be replaced and cast out once again after all he was the outsider that went from the bottom straight to the top
he over works himself a lot trying to build the buildings and do all the paperwork so he doesn’t have to ask others because he feels he might loose their support and they will leave if he oversteps and pushes them away
I headcanon Joel to be the opposite he was born into health and and influence he much like kirsty was excepted to be a dignified and perfect from birth
Once he was put in charge he was finally free to do what he wanted he was like those kids that are super restricted and when they rebel they go way overboard
So Jimmy and joel are complete opposite
one had responsibility and devotion thrust onto him and the other had to fight tooth and nail for it
one craves the approval of other while the other stopped caring about what others think a long time ago
Does anyone else notice how in empires Jimmy always gets really attached to objects like every one has an animal or thing they would start and escalate conflicts for but jimmy’s attachment to his things is on a way higher level than the rest
maybe the reason he’s so much more willing to do all that is because his objects are taken and made fun of more than anyone else’s so he gets really defensive and he has a habit of putting all his power and identity into one or two items usually one being a hat which makes people want to steal it even more
so Jimmy never truly cracks but it’s always the cat that makes him lose his mind so my prediction is that Jimmy loses the sheriff hat he will end the world again and then season two will start
