bonus absurd scribble from the huge big MACI N TORY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY POST (GO LOOK AT THAT GO LOOK) that didnt quite fit the aesthetic of the tumblr post compilation lmfao

ON THIS DATE, OCTOBER 16TH, 20 YEARS AGO,

Maci&Tory had their big fat Greek wedding-coronation-apotheosis party, before the eyes of the ENTIRETY of the Elysian Fields, the Queen of the Underworld, (+ two Olympians who so super did not wanna be there lmao) - ITS THEIR?!! TWENTY YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY TODAY??!?!?!?!??! AAAAAAAAAA-

3 of the wedding pics here (the two solo Maci’s, + Maci&Tory’s Kiss) are actually redraws of their original wedding drawings from way back when🥹 As I’ve explained a thousand times, Elysium-time-zone includes an In-Universe 5 year time skip, so even though Canonically to them the wedding was Oct. 16, 2005 — OoC it took place in the real world back in 2010. but that’s still fifteen REAL years! To make myself cry I have included here both the first attempt redraw I did in 2015, & the actual original drawing I did ON the 16th DURING their wedding convo, when I was 13 years old. SOBS?? (I have the other two too perhaps i'll share those later!)

[I’ve been meaning to redesign those forever anyway ever since I realized the prev two installments were the actual worst wedding dress designs in the world i didnt even TRY… Emo Fingerless gloves here to stay though 🫡 oh mygoddd oh mygod]

Maci&Tory, who of course was mortal in the beginning, got married INCREDIBLY quickly after only having KNOWN each other for like a year & a half mid whirlwind romance, because by that point Tory had literally three separate deities trying their fucking hardest to KILL HIM DEAD. When Maci’s own father Hades came the closest, it was the last straw & they got married to gain the protection of Olympian Queen Hera + Aphrodite. [After lots of begging.] Plus to turn Tory safely immortal! This did get Hades to back off 💞 (not the other two; that’s a different story) and they lived - AS WE KNOW - Happily ever after…🥹 omg. Maci & Tory's story did start a little before here, but the Elysium'verse as we know it today really kicked off from this point on so I am soooooooo. bawlinggg g ggggggg

this dumbass caption is so so long but a special weepy shout out to MY eternal partner-in-crime, Elysium’s co-creator the hiatus'd @fenixethekid (of whomst Tory belongs to), who has built this crazy world with me, from way before their marriage, to their ten kids later of today fgfkgk. Maci&Tory don’t remember their anniversary date - immortal deity probs lol - but WE do! Congrats to OUR kiddos 😭😭😭 jesus CHRIST 🥂

ft: Tory! & Maci & Tory & Maci-

try to draw Tory without Maci challenge— FAILED ALWAYS FAILED, but I’m trying as hard as I can!!! Tory-posting for today because today 3/22, is MAYBE Tory’s birthday! It’s either today or tomorrow!

Though Tory was originally mortal years ago before Maci apotheosized him, he no longer really celebrates said birthday and just like the changeless ageless immortal deities of Elysium who can’t remember dates or track the passage of time, I no longer remember AND I have conflicting info in my records so you know what! Happy birthday OR early birthday!! whatever who cares!

So, I…. fear the dynamic I’ve been illustrating wrt to the TaKi Fuego loose throuple lately has painted a very inaccurate picture of Tory’s uh, inclinations, because make no mistake ELoki might be Tory’s pet but…. it’s actually all a pyramid and at the same time Tory is Maci’s pet. tyvm. Maci & her palace full o’ sub-leaning-switches

1st and 2nd pics: ft. Tory cutest ever living up to his kitten nickname and 3rd pic is— still that. I told you I exited OC Kiss Week gasping that I simply HAD to make my art sluttier and. so. :) !!!!

Thank god for Maci’s hair bc otherwise I’d actually have to learn how to draw 😅

Shout out to the pile of CSP lace brushes that I’ve been hoarding for, I guess, this purpose and, also, generally I love to make Maci look like a leering pervert it’s the truest to her essence that I could possibly draw her💕 The more androgynously I draw Tory steadily over the years the more we all level up as well so. 💯 yippeee! he’s so pretty

Tory, love of everyone’s life, belongs of course to my RP-partner (hiatus’d) @fenixethekid, who has been bringing him to life for me n’ Maci (and in turn, YOU whoever is ever listening to me!) since 2009 🔥❤️‍🔥🔥❤️‍🔥 and I do NOT draw him enough somehow but please PLEASE know he is always occupying my head rent-free and yknow, as Elysium’s literal main character and all😌🫶

happy Maci Day it’s October 7th, Maci’s unbeknownst-to-her birthday!! Here she is in the exact same pose I’ve drawn four thousand times, smirking at You and basking in the constant attention that I’m ramping up forrrrr today ✨✨💅🏼💅🏼 she!

As we know, the immortal deities of the Elysium’verse are absolutely terrible of keeping track of time and dates and so does Maci have any idea what day it is today or know how old she is? no💞 who cares! She hasn’t aged past her early 20s in several thousands of years anyway! (augh and that explains SO much about her LOL)
