something i love about empires is that the only straight relationships have been people who are actually married and a gay pirate who keeps flirting with a very uninterested lesbian princess
but the gay ships ….
those are wild
i think jimmy has literally been shipped with everyone
Oli’s episode inspired me to write for the first time in a long time! So here, have a snippet of Oli and Eddie talking about the baby!
“Now Oli,”
Oli blinked twice, mouth still open and hands mid-gesticulation from when Eddie decided to interrupt him,
“—you know you don’t have’ta put on a show with me.”
With a sigh, Oli deflated into the awaiting arms of the rabbit man in front of him. He hadn’t even realized he’s put his showman’s mask back on, he was so stressed out.
It took a minute, for the words to come. And in the meantime Eddie just held him.
“I’m not ready to be a father.” He murmured into the crook of Eddie’s neck, “just last week I was expecting the egg to be cooked! I was gonna eat it Eddie! And now it’s…alive. And I did that.”
“And I picked up some kid off the side of the road who talked to fast and loved to easy.” Eddie’s slow deep rumble fell over Oli like a waterfall, “and Maria said ‘what are you gonna do with that kid?’ And I didn’t even know. I didn’t even know if humans could eat the same food we did. And Sausage almost got sick with anemia at one point cause he wasn’t eating’ enough iron. I didn’t even know what was a thing food had!”
Eddie paused to laugh, and to Oli it was like a gut punch. A welcome one, to be sure, but he could never quite get used to the deep, thunderous rasp.
“…but he turned out okay in the end. And you know, there weren’t a lot of people in that town, but we all helped each other. I wasn’t doing it all alone.”
Eddie’s hands, so strong, with calluses along each finger, gently trailed down Oli’s back, such a simple action, yet the soothing effect was inescapable.
“And what’s a baby dragon in the face of a witch, a god, the rulers of the land, and us?”
Oli’s breath hitched, he couldn’t have heard that right.
He stiffened up just enough for Eddie to stop the petting, and moved back just far enough to meet his eyes.
“…us?” Oli echoed in awe and disbelief.
His hands clutched the front if Eddie’s shirt harder, as if he was scared of being pulled away.
[Video Description: An illustrated video of Oli Orionsound’s EmpiresSMP character asking Eddie the Rabbit (NPC) to meet him at the Olipelago so he can confess his love. Eddie, while flustered, tells Oli that the question itself was a confession. Oli becomes embarrassed and runs away. Audio taken from this tiktok.]
DRABBLE REQUEST for me. olieddie. please pretty please. doing whatever. what do olieddie do. maybe something cute with sanctuary stuff
"Ooh, look at that!"
Eddie does. "Very pretty."
"Do they always blossom like that?"
"Every spring, yes. It's quite the sight when all of Sanctuary is in bloom. It comes alive with color."
"Yeah, well - it's, uh - well, I know a thing or two about colour. And rainbows. Y'know."
"I am familiar with rainbows, yes."
"No, like, erm… the, uh… well it's nice," he finishes, strangled.
"It is!"
"And - and so is this."
"What is?"
"Y'know. You… and me… hanging?"
"Your company is very pleasant, yes. It's nice… hanging with you, Oli."
Oli grimaces at his own cringe. It's... progress.
Mad man gave me 50 dollars for these. I have not drawn Empires Oli yet, or Eddit for that matter, but given what I had to work with, I really like how these turned out. Also, before you ask, yes Eddie is pantsless. Why do you need pants when you are literally part furry?
