I started putting together a playlist for m-1 jimmy, which means I’ve started thinking… a lot about empires jimmy. I’ve always had far too many emotions about how jimmy’s treated, but finally putting it to music has done irreparable things to me, I think. So anyway… some drawings to Gang of Youths’ Achilles Come Down.
The hardest thing about drawing to this song was finding characters who would could reasonably represent the verses of the song that are supposed to be encouraging and loving. So. Take that as you will.
Joel sort of gets dogs.
Not just in the he-has-sharp-teeth-and-wants-to-tear-people-up way, though he has that, and sometimes he wonders if he always had that, always had the pounding red mist in his head or if it had wormed its way in somewhere inside a wizard’s mountain and never gotten out until he couldn’t remember what it felt like not to have it chewing away at him and. He thinks he borrowed the sharp teeth from dogs, and sometimes he looks in the mirror and thinks, huh, he hadn’t always been like this, but frankly it’s sick as hell to be so visibly a monster so like, who cares, he’s badass—
Anyway.
The point is. He doesn’t have to be some kind of animal to get dogs, or like, that’s not the angle he gets dogs from. Or, he gets them like that? He doesn’t know, he’s bad at metaphors, god, why does he do this to himself? The point. The point is that he could get wolves but not really get dogs, if he wanted to, but he gets dogs too.
He didn’t always, really. Like, all he really needed was blood beneath his nails and between his teeth. Not really doggish, that. A wild animal. Dogs are all domestic. But…
So. Never tell Jimmy this. Joel will never hear the end of it. But he patted Joel on the head and Joel—maybe it’s silly. It’s a little bit silly. Jimmy is all… weak and floppy or whatever. Except he’d patted Joel on the head and really kept sticking around and Joel went:
Ah. Yes. I’ll die for you now.
And so like—he gets dogs, is the thing, because he’s a wild animal and he wants to kill and bite and he’s a monster and he’s proud of it and he’s not not a monster anymore it’s just… Jimmy put his arm around Joel last night and Joel almost cried, is the thing. Not sure how to explain that other than…
There are benefits to being a domestic monster?
No, that sounds weird. He’ll workshop it. He’ll workshop it.
but it still changes
Oh i didn't think of that
Holy shit
ALL HE WANTED WAS NOT TO BECOME ANOTHER MYSTERY
THEY DIDNT EVEN FIND HIS BODY

The fact it is really a unpopular opinion shows how stupid this fandom is
my unpopular villains series opinion is that Victor was manipulating and using Sdy in Vicious, and that he only really started to show care or "affection" at the end of the book and in Vengeful.
There are better ways to say that you have a hobby.
