if you were wondering wtf āRoyal Tupperwareā meant on EeLās ref sheet [HEREEEE CLICKYYYYY] lmfaoā¦.. WELL actually no this dumbass comic is primarily the avenue for a dirty joke
[this is.,, an ambiguously Canon Convo, to meā I am out here writing Elysium fanfiction again TECHNICALLY speaking EeL still doesnāt even know thatās written on a formal Underworld document in Hadesā main palace. They really did put that on paperwork BUT! maybe he does know and this happened offscreen sometime recently LOL)
Hilarious that this stupid thing is my last post before art fight š¤Ŗš¤£ but yippee!!! Maci & EeL (ahemm) are mine and Tory belongs to the hiatusād @fenixethekid !!
oopsies I have 5 min left of the day š« QUICK!!! April 1st heralds an Elysium Kiddo birthdayā Evantheās daughter Kaia turns TEN YEARS OLD TODAYY
Kaia, I think, wins the prize for THE most obscure Elysium Kiddo. she lives aaaalll the way offscreen these days and hasnāt made a real canon appearance in years. Somewhere after Ev and Lokiās fourth official breakup š, the big one where she moved all the way out of the palace and formally joined the Lampades, Evā¦.. uh soon returned to the palace and announced to Loki that she was pregnant. Not his!! Donāt worry about whose š„ø!!! But who else to support her than her on/off boyfriend who had previously carried their first daughter Rane himself plus seven prior children before that?š they got back together (plus, the whole Chal debacle was FIRST unfolding so EeL urged her not to leave the safety of the palace) while with Kaia AND stayed dubiously together while Kaia was a baby though at this point their relationship was already reeeeally fractured & so so splintered & barely holding what remained together if anything at all, and finally once Kaia was a little older Ev announced That She No Longer Needed Him and they split up for good. Forever. For real, this time.
BUT EeLās a parent above all else and though he and Ev barely speak these days Kaia is still like, his honorary stepchild AND sheās very close to big sis Rane! In honor of her big First Decade, hereās some scenes present AND past!
1- mommy and me birthday portrait
2- convenient excuse for one of those beloved headshots I keep doing
3- š« lmao a quick foray into Elysiumās messiest dumbest couple
4-6- brief moments from canon past. playing very sly and cool while EeL remained consumed with confused barely stifled jealousy bc what do you MEANNN we broke up (again) for like 2months and you immediately went and gOT PREGNANT??
7- ā¦.š¶ but hey hereās a fun factā did you know nymphs can simply spontaneously reproduce? š (why not just tell Loki and get him to stop stewing and squirming behind your back?? š„°no, says Evanthe)
8- FUN FACT TWO BABY LAMPADES START AT A LARVAL STAGE (Ev was never Maciās biggest fan, btwš)
these guys all belong to me except for Tory (c) the hiatusād @fenixethekid :)))
For some reason Elysiumās January starts out with a back to back to back of birthdays and today, January 5th, features the only one (of two) I FUCKING FORGOT TO DO last year so an extra super special moment and effort-infused drawing for him ā itās āØPhoās 14th birthday!!!!!āØ
YEAH I SKIPPED HIS 13TH BIRTHDAY LAST YEAR WHOOPS WHOOPS AAAAAAAAAA
Hypnos & Pasiās younger son Phobetor has existed outside of his physical body for most of his life after finding it ātoo cramped and limitedā and then using his own powers as a reality warping dreamscape deity to propel his own consciousness outtttt of his head in a cloud of golden light & intense glitter. Oh, You Know how it is!! Heās just as yappy and intense as you would imagine a Being manifesting in a neon glitter cloud would beš
interacting with him vs his sleepy slow motion parents and brother is like whiplash š
On that note, in honor of Icy and Neo finally getting together [HEEERE], please also take a moment to perceive THEIR younger brothers Pho & Raz 𤪠Raz is turning 14 later this year! Yes thereās Icy & Neo cutely endgame since the beginning of forever < these two who, jokes on them!!, are ALSO ENDGAME but in a a much worse āoh my gods Iām gonna be haunted by this dayglo idiot for all eternityā kind of way, THEY will grow up to annoy the shit out of each other forever and break up one million billion times š
One more rapidfire Elysium Kiddo January bday to come stay tuned for Wednesday!! Pho is mine and Raz belongs to the hiatusād @fenixethekid :33
What this is is more of a collection clip show of Canon Convo moments, mostly stemming from the same Convos from October to mid November because as ive so eloquently explained, AAAAAAA, EEEEEEEEEEE. **On the one hand i guess calling this a whole āDrama Updateā is A. Bit much considering this is an update to announce UHH, NOTHING NEW??? But thereās a marked difference to me between (one year ago btw) announcing youāre āKeepingā your šFavored Consort versusā¦. actually saying out loud āyes duh youāre part of our relationship duh duh duh??????ā
Maci&Toryās 20 year wedding anniversary accidentally threw EeL into a confused and nervous tailspin, took them a month to realize šyeah, while Neo was telling her parents about her romance with Icy, in the distance EeL was glowering in the corner as far as possible from them assuming - incorrectly ! - that to rejoin them would be intruding. I wrote at length about it here! And then he!!! continued to weirdly avoid them until finally settling on the vase thing [ see here ]. Which DID immediately make them realize what he was doing and sent them to hunt him back down and TALK to him omfgš so I guess that did⦠work??
[my actual liveblogged reaction to this as it was happening btw - @fenixethekid, my rp partner in crime, writes Tory/all orange text and she has been making me go EEEEEEEEEE for almost 19 years]
always so perceptive about everyone but yourself for Fucking Real, Loki š ha ha falling completely and unexpectedly in love with Maci and Tory (!!!!!!) has trapped them in EeLās signature āØblind spot of selfdoubtāØso heās just been helplessly stuck unable to figure out what theyāre trying to doā HELLO???? JESUS CHRIST. HELLO. footage from inside my head,
(OKAY Iām making jokes but at least this convo did FINALLY SEEM TO CLICK FOR HIM, SOOOOO)
Anyway Iām thrilled that this illustration set are probably my last drawings of 2025! Iāll be back Wednesday with some year art summaries, so STAY TUNED WOOOO,, like i said above, Tory/orange text belongs to Fenixe, also Raz & Ty in that one cameo moment;; pink/green text + Maci n' EeL are miineeeeeee.,,,
this is so so long i am sorry. not really. behold my 11 page 10 page comic lmfao
TWO months ago in October, Maci & Tory threw a little garden party to celebrate their 20 year wedding anniversary, & in this Canon Convo their daughter Neo casually revealed that sheās at last dating her long time best friend since infancy Icy! FINALLY!! Maci and Tory have known 1) Icyās ALWAYS had a crush on Neo except for 2) the very brief time when he was distracted (by CHAL lmfao) which happened to be exactly when Neo realized SHE had a crush on him and 3) THEN THAT WAS ALL LIKE, FIVE YEARS AGOOOO OF STUPID MUTUAL PININGā well!! No more!!! CUT TO LAST OCTOBER - right after THIS COMIC takes place!!
For me and Fenixe, Neo and Icy have been destined to get together since Neo was BORN 14 real years ago (she is 19 in canon due to the 5yr skip). Naturally though, leave it to Neo to exit our canon OC-RPverse and just do her own thing offscreen without telling anyone?!! Pages 2-9 are straight frommmm⦠my Notes App. But this IS fully a Canon Convo ā¼ļøas far as Iām concerned! Just bc I write Neo AND Icyā¦. And Pasi and Pho and Hypnos and Maci, thereās only so much talking to myself I can do before Fenixe my beloved RP partner uhhh presumably kills me, so this couldnāt happen IN our threads but it did (apparently) happen a year ago. while we were focusing on the TaKi Fuego throuple. Iāve had bits of this convo saved in my notes for literal years.
In the meantime it HAS always been themš„¹ and I canāt believe weāre FINALLY here. grow your OCs up in REAL TIME and ship them together over a decade later.
I had more to say GO UNDER THE CUT,commentary track continued:
šātarantula noisesā funniest nonsense sentence in the world what the Fuck Does that Even Mean. thank you Sweeney the Immortal Tarantula youāre the best character in here
šunrelated truly to THIS thread, PLEASE peep ELoki glowering like a weirdo on page One top corner bc thatās what he canonically did during Maci and Toryās anniversary party. TRAINWRECK INDEED
šhelp why can I design Hypnosā home and not the PALACE?!?! I donāt know what the palace looks like š but Maci is the odd one out itās quite common and standard to live in fancy cavern homes in the Underworld here!! šlmao yes Hypnos & Pasi are fully collapsed on the floor at ANY time. normal occurrence
šIcyās had a stutter since he was a kid! All the hard B-P-G sounds on a good day, everything ever when heās extra nervous :) hey I love him so much. Iām so glad he finally gets a main character moment! back to the background you go
špage 4, that split second Icy catching Neoās arrival via the poppies in his bedroom wilting and dying is like my favorite moment in this whole thing.
šbut page 8 is my entire fave paaaageeeeeeee
šok I think thatās it xoxo
The orange dialogue (Tory's) on page 1 and 10 are by @fenixethekid and of course he's hers too - EVERYONE ELSE HERE IS MINE AND EVERYTHING ELSE WAS WRITTEN BY ME PHEEWWWWWWWW,,,
PHEW W THIS IS A BELATED KIDDO BDAY, OOPS! On Sunday (July 13) it was Fjƶerās 18th birthday, I hadnāt had the chance to draw anything for him then but last minute yesterday sat down and went into a fugue state where all these came out. Yippee! A Fjƶer moment! And some scenes from his childhood, to this past weekend!
Some lore that I think tumblr crew all knows but. againnnnn. Fjƶer is EeL & Laphiās son, and not only Lokiās first baby in Elysium but the veeeery first EVER oopsie babie across couples in the Elysiumāverse. when Loki ended up in Elysium the first thing he did once he got ahold of himself was, lmao, to insert himself between every couple (except Maci/Tory LOL) š«¶and just two months later, Fjƶer!!
ā¦Please that second slide š Iād love to sit down and illustrate that specific entire Convo one day itās theeeeee funniest thing heās ever done. I should mention that other than being shockt Jesse and Laphi were uh, fine!ā¦ā¦ except Laphiās a fucking owl and immediately went into Nesting Instinct Overdrive and THAT derailed the wedding, not Lokiās appearance, oops ooops oops hahahaha
Fjƶer is loosely owl-shaped and big bird of prey sized, he maxed out by the time he was like, 5 yo and heās never gotten any bigger. When he first hatched, he was a teeny little puffball of down and stayed that way until his big kid feathers began to come in at around a year. Heās always been LOUD, heās half screech owl š (not shown; the SCREECHING) EeL encouraging him to antagonize Maci didnāt help either rffkfgkffkf
Fjƶer has mellowed out with age but at his heart heās always been a mischievous little brat š„° Only his parents and siblings on both sides can understand him, he speaks in āØbird⨠and thankfully so because heās usually saying something rude and snotty about someone standing right there. His hobbies include flying and climbing to be as high up as possible, which usually means inside the kitchen cabinets, which in turn means if you open them he WILL jump out at you because itās funny.
And so finally! ā¦applause for the fucking Outfit which I havenāt drawn since OoC year 2012 (remember our timeline is screwy š) yayay h-belated-bd Fjƶer!
Fjƶer, Maci, and!! EeL, in my opinion!! are all mine (do nooottt tag the M word idc what heās wearing); Jesse, Laphi, Tory belong to hiatusād @fenixethekid !
HI EVERYONE GATHER ROUND FOR THE BIG FINALEš£ š£š£ HHEYYY - WHAT?!?! FINALE??!!! hang on Iāll explain!!
starring! Tory & ELoki! [& Maci & RĆøkia] A Canon Convo from June!
Even tho Iām treating this as a finale to this yearās parade of Drama Updates, I wouldnāt call this an Update of anything, itās more of a REWIND to a scene that KILLED me months ago. I knew Iād come back here once I had timeā¦
š„²Loki stressing about RĆøkiaās dragon shape due to š°previous circumstances.
When this Convo took place I think I literally said the words āoh my gODā out loud. head in my HANDS. YOUUU KNOW WHAT PARTš in fact it made me so insane that Iād actually posted it basically right on here (duh thatās a tumblr screenshot lmao). Crucially - can we have a ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR ELYSIUMāS BETTER HALF, my RP partner @fenixethekid (hiatused indefinitely on tumblr)?! hello?!!! FUCKING HELLO WITH THIS??!!! lol EeL had no chance how could you not fall in love with Tory
So, finding a spot for one of my favorite moments of the year. serving as our official loose Finale episode it is š„¹
Though indeed this is NOT the last youāll see of these 3, itās a finale in the sense that Pregnancy Arc is over, babyās HERE! These comics all year have felt like one continuous project to me, 145 drawings later - Iām MOVING OOOON. Who knows what comes next!
And in fact who EVEN KNEW weād end up HERE back when EeL initially found himself wedged between Maci & Tory in their insane kinky whirlwind?? Their silly little baby adventure in January?? And then cut toā accidental & spontaneous throuple?! (insane dynamic still VERY & crucially included donāt worry rawr š¤Ŗš)?! Convos like THIS?! Tory catching Loki in his arms while reassuring him with the ONE THING HEāS LACKED AND CRAVED THE MOST OUT OF HIS WHOLE LIFE? oh yknow.
I donāt know what else to say in this caption that I havenāt already said over and over again. I love them. Iām obsessed with them. I love YOU. Thank you for jumping into the quicksand of the Elysiumāverse with me. You are trapped now we will not let you gošš
[hi pwease give me attention on this the grand finale wrap up of the insanity Iāve been posting frantically abt all YEAR. if this flops Iāll crumble into a sad pile of dust. Arenāt you crying?? THE SECRET IS FAMILYYYYYYYY AREN T YOUU CRYYYI MG GG?? COME CRY WITH ME]
EeL & green bubbles are all mine (he is mine. idc); Tory & orange bubbles are all Fenixeās. Sob sob. sob sob. Thank you⦠thank you. Iāll be over here bawling on the floor
lol Iām sorry for formatting this like this so long but- No Iām not. IIIITāS A NEW ELYSIUM DRAMA UPDATEā¼ļø
[part 1 ⢠part 2 ⢠finally here!]
THIS ONEāS SOOOOO VERY EXCITING - weāve been keeping this secret for months!!!
FEATURINGGGG our star players throughout this saga of course, the current Elysium (not⦠YET)throuple of the yearā Maci! ELoki! Tory! and special cameo guest: Hecate!
Loki, known for his children of various eccentricities due to his pinball machine-nightmare labyrinth-utter mystery of a reproductive system, has spent most of the year pregnant with Toryās baby, as part of the little playful tryst heās been tangled in between him and Tory and Maci!! We know thisss (I HOPE YOUVE BEEN FOLLOWING ALONG?)
From the get go pregnancy symptoms have been weird. Too big too fast, flickering magic - now this fever mentioned prev??? , but EeLās cagey about his kids and hasnāt let anyone assess WHY itās been weird. Childbirth and Witchcraft goddess Hecate is one of Elysiumās go-to midwives and⦠someone Loki dislikes for no reason fgkfkg so even though she COULD have assessed from day 1 - heās refused. But now given the previous drama, (yknow - EeLās poof and reappearance) maybe itās finally time to put everyoneās concerns to rest. Well, Hecate (Mother⢠Edition) is promptly called, andā
One pyrokinetic fire daemon PLUS one chaos entity who keeps giving birth to various creatures EQUALS::::
Well! Duh!
šššššš Iām so excited for you guys to meet himāŗļø
More sporadic Elysium Drama Updates to come! immmmm running out of time but I have a few more canon moments I want to draw still! Stay tuned!! AHH!
***also- lmfao at Fenixe [hiatusād at @fenixethekid !!] and I being on the same page about this AGAIN without prior discussion AGAIN? Jesus christ running Elysium together for so long we continue to be synched via inexplicable hivemind entity fgFgof gOD LOOL AHH - Tory & Hecate/orangepurple bubbles are hers, EeL & Maci/greenpink bubbles are mine!
