So! Smajor's Empires S1 character. Because of the elytra looking like bird wings, there's a lot of owl hybrid and Winged!Scott headcanons and content. And because of the golden antlers headdress he found that symbolizes he's Aero's champion, there's a lot of content and headcanons around the antlers not being a headdress at all and or him growing antlers. You're probably wondering where I'm going with this. He's a peryton, that's where I'm going with this.
Ever hears of a jackalope? Or a skvader? Or a wolpertinger? Bird, rabbit, deer. Bird and rabbit? Skvader. Rabbit and deer? Jackalope. All three? A wolpertinger. A bird and a deer tho? A peryton. E!Scott is a peryton hybrid and this has been not letting me rest for a week now

Flower Frost Part XII: Asphodel
Asphodel: My regrets follow you to the grave.
A/N: Sorry I’ve not updated in so long! I’m determined to finish this fic though and there’ll probably be 1-2 more parts after this. For those still interested, enjoy! ( ⌯◞◟⌯)♡
~ Please reblog if you like! <3 ~
Read all parts on Ao3!

Scott strode about his bedchamber in the manor, head spinning with a blizzard of thought and emotion. The utter destruction that had mere moments ago come from his own hands thrilled him. An icy river swept through his veins, an overwhelming sense of sheer power and magnificence that took his breath away. He could see empires cowering beneath his hand, those who threatened his people or himself speared by spires of glinting ice, or else swept away by vicious winter storms unbound by season. He could reduce the world to frozen stillness and make it anew, just as frost subdues undergrowth to make room for the blossoms of spring. Ideas that had before now only budded began to gain clarity in his mind, unfurling like the petals of a summer rose.
Surely he had these abilities for a reason. He’d been called - destined - to restore the empires, to rule. There was a reason, there was! Fate, after all, was not senseless. Fire - like that of the Grimlands - was greed and hatred and violence, and it needed to be extinguished if peace was to be restored.
Jimmy’s return was announced by the closing of the door. “That was intense,” he ventured mildly, casting his cloak onto a chair and rubbing his hands in futile hope of deterring the cold.
“Yeah,” Scott agreed, knowing already that a smile was audible in his voice.
“Jimmy? I’ve been thinking,” he began, standing at the wide window and looking out, thinking of how to broach the idea.
“Yeah?”
“You know how … In a wildfire, the flames plunge over the ground, eating it up and devouring everything in its path. It eats and eats and then starves to death in a wasteland of its own making.” He noticed Jimmy’s nonplussed expression and continued, “But ice … ice is purifying. Snow holds the world in stillness, and thaws to let the world grow anew. When ice has frozen everything, it’s still and safe and eternal.”
“What on earth are you on about?” Jimmy asked, a note of amusement in his tone, “did you get indoctrinated into a cult during the 10 minutes I left you alone?”
Scott knew he wasn’t communicating properly, lost in the swarm of thoughts. “I just mean - what if it’s not a curse? We’ve been thinking of this in terms of a curse, but what if it was meant to be? What if I have these powers because fate decided I was to wield them and make the empires better? Or - or something. There must be something I need to do!”
“Right,” commented Jimmy sardonically, irritation tingeing his tone, “By spreading a plague that kills everyone?”
Scott faltered only briefly, then began to pace again. “What if that part is about pushing people into submission when necessary? Perhaps I can control it in some way and I just don’t know how … Maybe there’s something I’ve missed …?”
“So … your theory is that Aeor - or some higher power, or fate or whatever - your theory is that you were granted these ice-powers and a deadly plague to save the empires?” Jimmy kept his voice determinedly calm, “I don’t know much about Aeor’s teachings, but I know damn well that my gods wouldn’t wreak so much death and pain.”
“There’s darkness, Jimmy! I’m sure of it.” Scott was faintly aware his voice was growing more frenzied, but he was determined to clarify his thoughts. “It’s the tale or Aeor and Exor, and of Alinar and Cohnal. If I am Aeor’s champion, perhaps Fwhip is Exor’s. Surely it makes sense - fire and ice, light and dark? The plague is- some sort of insurance, perhaps? Surely nothing great can be done without risk -“
Unthinking, Jimmy lunged at Scott in the desperate impulsivity of one unable to put his turbulent emotions into words of sufficient power. Scott was caught by surprise and stumbled. His back hit the floor, and Jimmy crouched above him.
“Insuring you against what? Your own people? Children? Me?” Jimmy snarled, his face inches from Scott’s.
The blue eyes that met his had lost the wild look of a moment before, and now looked only troubled. “Am I right?” Scott asked, voice suddenly timid.
Jimmy reflected on the oddity of Scott’s flickering temperament - one moment he was as cold and cruel and wild as the kingliest of beasts, and the next, little more than a frightened, wild-eyed colt.
“No,” Jimmy sighed heavily, bowing his head in exhaustion, “You’re being insane, to be honest. No God would give you a power that kills so many without you understanding.”
“But there has to be a reason, Jimmy,” he said beseechingly. There was so much fear and sadness there, Jimmy saw. A desperation for answers and reason that he wished he could assuage.
“If there is, it’s not the one you thought of. That madness won’t help anyone, yourself included. You’ll get hunted down and lynched if people consider you too dangerous, and I don’t want that. Don’t be like Xornoth.”
Jimmy saw fury flash in Scott’s eyes a moment before he found his position flipped, so that it was himself pressed against the floor and defenseless. “I’m not like Xornoth at all,” Scott said, his voice low but firm.
Knelt above him, Scott held his wrists in each hand, the claws of his thumbs pressing firmly against the soft undersides of Jimmy’s wrists, poised as though in a dance, a pair of dolls immaculately posed.
Jimmy was unwavering, even betrayed as he was by the rapid heartbeat Scott could feel near his own. “I know who you are, and so do you.”
“I could kill you,” he whispered almost to himself, his eyes frozen and dangerous, swallowed by the expanding black of dilating pupils. It wasn’t a threat, but a realisation of sorts. With only a little pressure he could’ve broken the thin skin beneath his claws, exposing the veins and tendons of Jimmy’s forearms to the cold air as easily as one might score dough.
Jimmy didn’t flinch. Content in helplessness, he only smiled and replied, “Do you really think I would resist?”

Gem was dying.
She knew this well - in fact she’d known since the ice had first started to spread. This was magic born of fear and anger that did not sink its claws in with the expectation of being pried loose. The long decline was nearing its end and now she was only exhaustion, pain, sorrow. She could not move for the newly brittle nature of her flesh, and lay abed waiting only for her body to give out, to submit to the cold and let her drift away. To move would be a fingertip on a new-frosted leaf, ruinous of something that was meant to be.
These long days she lived in the realms of the past. She relived memories of better times. She thought of stories and songs and magic, she recited poetry she’d learned as a child.
Gem watched her breath fog in front of her.
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
She drew a shallow breath that seemed all the effort in the world, searing her brittle lungs.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
She thought of Fwhip, and wished he were here now; that she could tell him to go on, that she might say goodbye.
But if I were to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Gem closed her eyes and felt icy water well in her eyes. Oh, Scott, she thought, feeling tears break the confinement of her lashes, How much did you hate me in that moment? It was as though an ice-dipped paintbrush trailed down her cheeks, and now she could not open her eyes again.
The nightingale had made her nest outside Gem’s window among the wilted climbing honeysuckle, and she was singing I’m sorry, my sweet, I wish you were not hurting.
Gem was calm. The cold finally relinquished it’s cruel grip, unfurling icy claws from her chest, and embraced her as a child. The frozen wind was woven into a cloak and put about her shoulders, and she felt tranquil because it did not hurt anymore. And The Cold said you have done well.
The brave snowdrops heard her last breath leave, and they bent their heads and wept as the nightingale sang her requiem.

It’s been a few months since Empires s2 came to an end and I wanted to make a piece reflecting on the time we spent with these characters 🥰✨ When season 1 ended I did a series of paintings set to the End Poem, and so I decided to revisit the concept once again, making sure to switch up which line corresponded to which person. This series means a lot to me—in fact, this is one of two big Empires s2 projects I’ve been working on! There’s another one still in the works :D

So can we talk about Joel revealing in his newest hermitcraft ep that the way Scott and him became friends is that Scott was a fan that came up to him at a convention and then tricked Joel into following him on twitter?
