=={{Icon|Tower}} Appearance==

=={{Icon|Book}} Story==

===''[[Fanon:Blank Slates|Blank Slates]]''===

Joe is first heard by the [[Fanon:Four Guardians|Four Guardians]], asking them to send one cut character into the [[Developer's Grove]]. However, Joe is first seen when [[Mildew]] is chosen by the Guardians. Joe gives Mildew a tour of the grove, teaching Mildew about what to expect in [[Drawn to Life Series|the games]]. However, he, along with [[Mildew]] and [[Fanon:David Franco|David Franco]], get overthrown by the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader|Droogle Leader]] and the rest of the [[Fanon:Droogle|Droogles]] in their mutiny. The three of them are stabbed by the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader's Sword|Droogle Leader's Sword]] and sent into [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]].

 

 

 

Back in the Grove, they are met by Franco, who tells Joe about Hose's request to keep The Void as it is. While he considers the request, Willham, Shadow Mari, and the Droogle Leader all appear in the Grove, and Willham hands the Leader off to Joe. Before they leave, Joe grants Hose's wish, and Shadow Mari brings life to The Void. Joe also deleted Mayo at Willham's request. Afterwards, Joe puts the Droogle Leader in charge of progress checks in [[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]] as a punishment.

Joe is seen again when [[Aly]] sneaks into the [[Developer's Grove]], and he tries to help recover her memories. When he and the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader|Droogle Leader]] can't help her, they send her back to [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]] using the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader's Sword|Droogle Leader's Sword]].

===''[[Fanon:Salem Rose Pt. 1|Salem Rose Pt. 1]]''===

Joe is next seen arguing with the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader|Droogle Leader]] about a hypothetical [[Fanon:Two Realms Plains|Two Realms Village]], with Joe holding firm in his beliefs that they need to begin work on the village so that when [[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]] released, its cut and unused residents would have a place to stay. [[Miles]] snuck around him undetected, stabbing himself with the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader's Sword|Droogle Leader's Sword]]. When the sword falls to the ground, both Joe and the Droogle Leader turn around to look at it. Joe jokingly asks if they gave the [[Fanon:Droogle|Droogles]] psychic powers, and the Droogle Leader denies that he moved the sword.

===''[[Fanon:Salem Rose Pt. 2|Salem Rose Pt. 2]]''===

Joe is later found by [[Fanon:Milfre|Milfre]] when she arrives in the [[Developer's Grove]], asking him about [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]]. He waves her off, stating that unless she plans to kill [[Fanon:Salem Rose|Salem Rose]], she needs to leave. When Milfre admits that she plans on fighting him, he calls [[Fanon:Willham|Willham]] and [[Fanon:Shadow Mari|Shadow Mari]] up to the Grove. When Milfre returns with [[Kamalah]] and [[Jowee]], Joe sets the well for [[Fanon:GuyThatExists' Timeline#1982|1982]], and watches as they leave.

He is later seen after Salem Rose is killed, when Willham and Shadow Mari bring the injured [[Raposa]] back to the Grove to recover. Joe sets the well for [[Fanon:GuyThatExists' Timeline#2013|2013]] and says goodbye to [[Fanon:Stampy/Stories|Stampy]], next setting the well for [[Fanon:GuyThatExists' Timeline#2042|2042]]. He says goodbye to the rest of the Raposa, leaving him and Willham alone in the Grove. When Willham asks to return to The Void, Joe tells him that the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader's Sword|Droogle Leader's Sword]] had gone missing.

===''[[Fanon:Blank Slates 2|Blank Slates 2]]''===

After being joined by [[Fanon:Shadow Mari|Shadow Mari]], the three of them begin to search the [[Developer's Grove]] for the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader|Droogle Leader]], but cannot find him. Joe realizes that if they can't find the Droogle Leader, they need to instead find [[Fanon:Jeremiah Slaczka|Miah]]. He calls [[Aly]] and [[Franco Key]] to the Grove so they can find Miah in [[Belleview]], revealing that he took the role of [[Mike]]'s father, [[Fanon:Mr. Row|Mr. Row]]. He sends them and Shadow Mari off to find him, while he and Willham stay behind to keep searching for the Droogle Leader.

When the group returns, they bring [[Fanon:GenericChallenge/Stories|GenericChallenge]] with them. Joe questions GenericChallenge about Miah's whereabouts, and he agrees to tell them as long as he can continue to roam free in canon. Joe agrees to his terms and GenericChallenge reveals that Miah is trapped in his basement. Joe sends the group back to get him, and they return Miah to the grove. Miah gives the group a new tool to send people to The Void, the [[Fanon:Stylus|Stylus]], and everyone but him and Joe return to their homes.

Now alone with Miah, Joe asks if he can go through with causing the crash that kickstarts the [[Drawn to Life series]]. Miah reveals that he's hesitant, so Joe decides to erase his memory of being a developer so that he could live out his final moments in peace. Miah thanks Joe and his memory is erased, so Joe sends him to the carnival with the rest of his family. Joe then gets back to searching for the Droogle Leader.

===''[[Fanon:Heather Dating Sim|Heather Dating Sim]]''===

Joe only appears in a non-canon path of Heather Dating Sim where [[Fanon:Samsung|You]] decide to let Willham kill the [[Fanon:Master of the Abyss|Master of the Abyss]]. Six months after her death, [[Fanon:The Engineer|The Engineer]] and Willham work together to create a [[Fanon:3DS Stylus|device]] that would be capable of sending everyone home. You, Willham, The Engineer, and [[Fanon:Pleather|Pleather]] all jump into [[Fanon:Roboville|Roboville]]'s [[Wishing Well]] and appear in the [[Developer's Grove]], where Joe is waiting to take the Stylus and send you all home.

Joe is next seen a few years later, holding a meeting in the [[Developer's Grove]] about [[Fanon:GenericChallenge/Stories|GenericChallenge]]. Attending the meeting are himself, [[Fanon:David Franco|David Franco]], [[Fanon:Alana/Stories|Aly]], [[Fanon:Mill|Mill]], [[Fanon:Hoopz|Hoopz]], and [[Fanon:Sparky|Sparky]], the latter three of whom get a call that the fourth piece of the [[Fanon:Jungle Creature|Jungle Creature]] - [[Fanon:Tombstone|Tombstone]] - had been spotted attacking the [[Fanon:Drawn to Life Village|Drawn to Life Village]]. The entire group, minus the developers, returns to [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]]. Joe and Franco then decide to continue their search for GenericChallenge.

When Joe is next seen, the residents of The Void have begun [[Fanon:Mantra|ascending]] into the Grove, putting a pause on Joe and Franco's plans. When [[Fanon:Willham|Willham]] arrives, Joe is attempting to delete the Jungle Creature's files from the [[Fanon:Control Booth|Control Booth]], but he cannot, as Tombstone keeps infecting other files. As he thinks about what to do, he sends Willham to [[Fanon:Shadow Mari|Shadow Mari]]'s location with the [[Fanon:Stylus|Stylus]].

He is next seen much later, when [[Fanon:Repair Guy|Repair Guy]] visits to try and find [[Fanon:Kyren|his daughter]]. Joe suggests that he search around the Grove to see if she ascended while he and Franco discuss how to best combat Tombstone, eventually deciding that they would need to ask its creator - [[Fanon:Eric Kozlowsky|Eric "Koz" Kozlowsky]] - for help. He sends Franco, now disguised as [[Fanon:Daniel James|Daniel James]], and Repair Guy, "disguised" as [[Rocko]], into canon to hunt GenericChallenge down while he attempts to get ahold of Koz.

When Koz arrives in the Grove and begins looking in the Control Booth, Joe explains that The Void had been populated and that the Jungle Creature had been left unchecked. Koz explains that even though he was annoyed, he would do whatever it took to not be deactivated again, telling Joe that when an Avatar is deactivated, the people they emulate keep living their lives, scaring Joe. Before Joe can respond to that, however, [[Fanon:Wilfred|Wilfred]] and [[Fanon:William|William]] jump out of the [[Wishing Well]] with GenericChallenge.

 

Joe and Koz pull the three [[Raposa]] into the Control Booth, interrogating them about where they were, and why they brought GenericChallenge back. When Repair Guy returns to the Grove, entering the Booth, Koz leaves in frustration, and Joe berates GenericChallenge, eventually throwing all the Raposa out and bringing Koz back in, shutting the blinds. When [[Fanon:Goldie|Goldie]] and the rest of Tombstone's undead [[Fanon:Droogle|Droogle]] army attack the Grove, Repair Guy tries to get Joe's attention but fails.

 

Joe and Koz eventually open the blinds to see the fighting happening in the Grove, and Joe gives Koz the Stylus to run around the Grove, sending people to safety. He also deactivates the Wishing Well to keep the Droogles from escaping into canon. However, after making a lap around the Grove, Joe calls him back to the booth and tells him that he could simply write the word "safe" with the Stylus, and it would know his intent. Koz begins another lap around the Grove, until he and Joe are the only ones left in the Grove with the Droogle army. As the army tries to break down the door to the Booth, Joe admits that his plan was to send everyone to canon to keep them safe, and he sends Koz away as well.

 

When Goldie breaks into the booth, Joe smashes the main computer in the Booth and snaps the Stylus in two, trapping himself and the Droogles in the Grove forever. Goldie threatens to absorb him to learn how to make another, but Joe reminds her that Miah was the one who made it, not him, so absorbing him wouldn't help them out. The Droogle army then retreats, leaving Joe alone in the Grove. He slowly wanders around for a bit before jumping into the Wishing Well and floating in the water inside.

{{Quote|text=Attention Guardians! We have decided to bring back one cut character for the next game!<br>The four of you will decide who it is, and report back to your two screeners. Thank you for your services!}}

{{Quote|text=Welcome to the Dev Grove Mildew! My name is Joe and I’ll be guiding you through the creation process.}}

{{Quote|text=Hey, what’s going on here?}}

{{Quote|text=Right now, our only hope is finding the screeners. You four should know where they are, right?}}

{{Quote|text=How come she’s been alive when we only gave the four of y’all life?}}

{{Quote|text=She’s the reason we hired the Droogles in the first place, to keep her out.}}

{{Quote|text=Well, then, we have our answer. You remember your line David?}}

{{Quote|text=Attention guardians! Good news, I’ll grant your request because it’s the least we could do after seeing how you all used to live.<br>I would like to sincerely apologize for our negligence and hope we can have better relationships in the future!}}

{{Quote|text=I think we can take care of him. In fact, I know the perfect job for him in Two Realms!}}

{{Quote|text=There’s no way that’s Alana, right?}}

{{Quote|text=Well let’s not just stand here, help me pull her up.}}

{{Quote|text=Alright Aly, it’s clear you don’t remember who you are, so I need you to listen to me.<br>You’re a character in a video game, and you were sent into that video game by me, Joe.}}

{{Quote|text=We’re in the Developer’s Grove, but you’re in The Void Alana. Say hello to some of your old friends!}}

{{Quote|text=If we don’t, then all of these people won’t have a place to live!}}

{{Quote|text=The game is scheduled to come out in a year.<br>We got lucky with the other three villages, but we won’t be so lucky with this one. We need to start building it now.}}

{{Quote|text=We didn’t plan to give you any psychic powers, did we?}}

{{Quote|text=Ma’am I’m sure your problem is really bad, but you don’t belong here, and I’m trying to deal with three problems at once right now.<br>One of my employees ran away with our only entrance to The Void, our Guardians are dead, and GenericChallenge is still at large.<br>Unless your old friend is that weird, aged up Miles that calls himself Salem Rose, you need to go back down that well.}}

{{Quote|text=I have no idea how he evolved past his coding, but killing him is the only solution I can think of.}}

{{Quote|text=No clue who she is or how she plans to kill him, but she’s here and she offered.}}

{{Quote|text=Welcome back you three! Is Salem Rose taken care of?}}

{{Quote|text=Good to hear! I’ll set the well for 2042 and all of you can head back home!}}

{{Quote|text=Alright, the well’s set for 2013. Anyone else not from 2042?}}

{{Quote|text=About that…}}

}}

{{Quote|text=About that, the sword is missing.}}

{{Quote|text=I haven’t done anything yet. With GenericChallenge still on the loose and Milfre coming to visit, I haven’t had time to even leave this terminal.}}

{{Quote|text=Well, since that didn’t work, there is one last thing we could try. We can always go find Miah.}}

{{Quote|text=Welcome back Franco! It’s been a while, hasn’t it?}}

{{Quote|text=Well first off, he decided to do what you two did. He acted as an agent in the games, but after we released The Next Chapter, he fell off our radar.}}

{{Quote|text=Unlike you two, Miah was never disguised as an NPC. It’s incredibly unlikely that you’ll be able to find him without a specific location.}}

{{Quote|text=He went in as Mike’s dad. As far as we know, he died in the crash. Which is where you two come in. I’m sending you back to before the crash happened so you can find Miah and bring him back for a bit.}}

{{Quote|text=Well first off, you can tell us where Miah is, then we can figure out what to do about all the stuff you’ve moved.}}

{{Quote|text=I appreciate your concern, but you do know that Miah is supposed to cause that crash, right?}}

{{Quote|text=It was Mike’s game, that plot wouldn’t’ve worked at all! Now, GenericChallenge, where’d you hide Miah.}}

{{Quote|text=We don’t know what the future of the franchise holds. We could send him somewhere and accidentally drop him in the middle of Drawn to Life 4 without even knowing!}}

{{Quote|text=Normally I could, but ever since Salem Rose and Milfre showed up, everything past Two Realms is fuzzy, minus a few distinct years. I have no idea what that means, but it scares me a bit.}}

{{Quote|text=Those are all entirely possible, but I can’t say for sure. All I know is that I don’t know where the franchise goes from here, which means nowhere is safe for him to go.}}

{{Quote|text=Great, your one good idea wasn’t even yours.}}

{{Quote|text=Well how about we give it a try? You guys ready to go home?}}

{{Quote|text=You three can head back through the well to get home.}}

{{Quote|text=If you don’t mind, I might have an idea. You remember what we used to do to people we sent into games?}}

{{Quote|text=You’re going to die Miah. Your car is going to do a complete flip, and you’re going to be ejected. The least I can do is let you spend your final moments with your family, spend your final moments enjoying a carnival, not worried about the ride home. Plus, I’m not gonna give you much of a choice.}}

{{Quote|text=See ya around. Now then, let’s find this dog.}}
