Empires x Hermitcraft x Life Series x New Life x Afterlife Highschool AU (The Modded series is 1. Empires, 2. New Life, 3. Afterlife, 4. One Life / everything else under the category)

There are two AUs of this: 1. The “everyone is dating everyone, and nobody has exes” AU / either you are poly or a single pringle, and 2. The regular one where there’s breakups and angst and crushes and almost no one is poly. 1 is called the Fluff AU and 2 is called the Normal AU / Angst AU. They’re gonna have titles, 1 is based off like the clouds and sun and rainbow after a thunderstorm, and 2 is based off watching the rain and thunder and lightning and fog. So yeah.

More Detailed Notes:

In high school, Oli, Stacy, Megan, Lauren, Callum, and were in a class together with Bobby, Vixella, Cupquake, etc. for 2-3 years. Lauren, Oli, and Megan went to Afterlife SMP for a year (anyone in Empires who were not in ALSMP gets moved to this class and moved back) and while Lauren and Megan get moved back, Oli stays for ESMP2 / he was supposed to move back but his name accidently gets put on the ESMP2 list. Owen joined this class in Year 3, and they all get moved to NLSMP in Year 4.

Martyn was literally moving classes about every month / he was never in the same class (because of the falling void lore thing in cannon and him jumping around games), he even joined HC8 for a while in the middle-last half of the year before moving to E2 (because of the Old Sheriff thing).

Gem has had to change classes since she joined HC, Pearl had to change classes in ESMP1 with HC, but gets moved to HC entirely in Year 2 -3 (unless she was in ALSMP), and now she’s back to changing classes with HC and NLSMP. Scar is new to the changing classes thing (now that he’s in both NLSMP and HC) so he often goes to Pearl and Gem for help with his classes. When Scott went to Origins SMP in ALSMP he also switched classes.

Are they all human?

Yes, because with each SMP the hybrid-ness changes with each character, so making any of them hybrid is not on my to-do list.

Why aren’t all the Hermitcraft people on the list?

Because I don’t watch HC as much as Empires and NLSMP, so I only put in the Life Series people for HC (though if I ever write the crossover, I might put in HC people – just disregarding the lore because I literally hated the crossover when it was first announced for some reason).

Will you add new people to the AU?

If there’s new people added to NLSMP, then yes! But for now, unless we get another “Olli falls from ALSMP to Empires” thing, nope. (UPDATE - no, just no)

Do you ship any ships?

NATURE WIVES, NATURE WIVES! Mean gills my beloved <3! Rancher duo, Jizzie (the only straight ship I like lol), Treebark (sometimes), Flower husbands (even though it’s canonically dead, i'm sorry), ASSASIN HUSBANDS!!!, Weather husbands (HOW HAVE I ONLY HEARD OF THIS NOW), the Listeners (Martyn and Jimmy), there are so many more.

Although it’s a highschool AU, are there any roommates?

It’s year 4, they’re almost off to college, roommates are essential. Scott & Owen, Sausage & Pearl, Katherine, False, & Truth, Shubble & Megan, BigB & Ren, Gem & Lizzie, Mumbo & Grian, Cleo & Etho (only to take care of Scar and Bdubs who live next door with Impulse) Bdubs & Impulse, Martyn & Jimmy (Joey lives next door)

Who's related?

Gem & Fwhip; Lizzie & Jimmy; Stacy, Pix, & Seapeekay (somehow); Pearl & Grian; Joel & Hermes; False & Truth; BigB & Bdubs (somehow); Scott, Lauren, & Xornoth; Owen and Pearl are connected to the elusive Golem family (copper golems in NLSMP).

Also this isn't the q&a but i had an idea of a giant sleepover at katherine's castle (in New Life she sold it bc false and truth found their own place since she was letting them stay over and she bought a basic house) where fwhip, oli, sausage, and lizzie made a bunch of songs and dance to them lol idk
