Arcane Fandom Pet Peeve:

I’m making a new Trolls fic called Different Path, Different Troll (I’m still workshopping the name).

The gist of it is:

Branch is worried about the safety of the village and sick of how he’s treated as an outcast. He doesn’t trust them to not lead a Bergen straight to Pop Village. Since his bunker won’t keep them safe permanently, he goes off to search for a new home that the bergens will not find. With an unexpected tag-along (Cooper), Branch encounters other trolls that he never knew existed. Some of these new trolls include a couple of well known bounty hunters.

Im still making the outline of the story, but I’m working on the first chapter. Hope I can get out the first chap in a week or so!! As per my last fic, I’ll have around 1,000 words per chap and my uploading schedule will be mostly random but at most I’ll have a chapter every 2-3 days.

Since I plan to add songs into my fic, I’ve created a Spotify playlist called “Different Path, Different Trolls” on my Spotify acc “Hookfang”. There you’ll see some songs that will potentially be added. It is not a definite list.

My AO3 acc is Brickory if you’d like to read my 2 other fics while you wait for my newest fic!!!

idk if u can tell but i am a rarepair enjoyer

Me after my mom asks what I'm doing in my room:

Nothing productive

Guys none of my friends want to get the app someone plz add me 💔

I want to add random strangers on the Internet but like what if they think it's weird being added weeks after they posted their username in a comment section or something. . . Guys I'm too awkward for this

Each time I got a regular commenter I was giggling and kicking my feet cause it makes me feel so amazing and talented to have people ACTUALLY enjoy my world enough to comment over and over again

I cannot possibly express how amazing it feels to get repeat commenters on a fanfic. When I was writing my first long form fanfic last spring I could have dedicated it to my first reader, that's how inspired I felt that they commented so consistently.

I remember having the slightly hysterical thought that *I* should check to see if *they* had a Kofi so that I could donate to it since they were the reason my fanfic got finished so quickly.

I love water <3

The urge to rewrite the whole TTBGO and Trollstopia series through my Branches & Thorns AU is getting stronger and stronger the more I think about it. I blame that one Trollstopia rewrite on AO3 (with the bounty hunters and Poppy’s bad ideas being hated on) for this!!

I already have a basic timeline for the three movies. Why not include the series in that timeline as well? (If I do it’s gonna take me much longer to finish the AU series)

Least Favorite TTBGO Episode: The Bunker List

Lol no guys I haven’t updated any of my fics. I’m working on an edit but it’s going really slowly. To be fair, I’ve been busy this week. Not busy enough to watch TTBO and read Trolls fics tho LMAOOOO (mainly I’ve just been unmotivated)

Besides Hair-Jitsu, The Bunker List is one of my least favorite TTBGO episodes (I HATE IT (besides certain moments 😋)) because it’s just Branch giving into peer pressure and making it seem like it’s only his fault for rushing through his bunker list. Guy Diamond and Smidge are annoyed at Branch for not doing things on his bunker list which, to an extent, is valid. Branch needs to get out more, but we’re talking about Branch here. The same Branch that was gray for 20 years. It’s not going to be easy for him to go through the list when he struggles so much with ‘basic’ social cues/expectations.

It’s not like he isn’t attempting to be more social either. He’s actually made good progress since the first episode.

Branch only made the bet because Guy Diamond and Smidge had gotten on him for not wanting to do things on his list. When he first said to give him a year to do the things, they scoffed and rolled their eyes. A year isn’t that long to complete a bucket list though? Especially not for someone like Branch who, again, was gray and miserable for 20 years. Poppy made a good point with telling him to do the list at his own pace. (She is surprisingly wise for a Pop troll surrounded by excessive positivity) I just wish they focused the lesson on not letting others get into your head over how you do things instead of ?? Idk whatever the lesson for that episode was.

What annoys me most out of that entire episode is that Branch still has to be humiliated in front of his friends (and only his friends thankfully bc seriously???? In front of everyone?!?!?! That was a horrible bet). They laugh at him when he tried to apologize (again, to an extent, fair bc he was being so aggressive towards his friends cause of wanting to finish his list on time). That was bad enough except then neither Smidge nor Guy Diamond apologized for pressuring him which really rubbed me the wrong way.

They were the whole reason Branch did all that. Poppy didn’t want the bet to happen yet they hair shook with Branch to make the bet official.

Several times throughout the TTBO and Trollstopia series Branch is made fun of for not being ‘normal’ or made the bad guy/blamed for stuff he didn’t do or wasn’t completely at fault for. I hate it so bad and this episode is one of the main examples of this. Ugh.

Also, I don’t completely like that bunker list bc of those same reasons. It’s a good idea but when Branch completes a part of the list the scrapbook says “One step closer to being normal!!”

. . .

Pop trolls try not to make Branch feel bad for being extremely socially inept due to 20 years of isolation, grayness, and trauma 🙀🙀 CHALLENGE IMPOSSIBLE ‼️‼️

Bro still isn’t his original colors of course he won’t be as happy as the other Pop trolls

Anyway, yeah, rant over. If you made it this far congrats on reading to me take a kids show way too seriously 🤗

Okay!

Vampire Steb can take all the blood he wants from me idc <3

let the fangs sink in

Steb, your existence would be much appreciated cause I'm low-key in pain and I feel my body slowly breaking down and I should probably ask a doctor about the pain in my side and the pain in my leg and probably the numbness I experience every once and a while like is that normal or should I—

MY RESPONSIBLE KING 😫😫❣️❣️❣️❣️

He is sooo responsible it hurts

This man makes sure to drive to the speed limit regardless of whether others aren't (with the exceptions of emergencies and even then he somehow knows how to drive super fast without endangering others), instantly replaces his reflective gear the moment he sees it dimming, and modified his bike to have lights drivers can clearly see

Flash warning for fast spinning fish under the cut

Steb when there's an emergency ^^^

He's so speedy yet so focused

Wife, wait for me!

Refusing to sleep until I see you is not too far.

<3

whoops, meant to post this yesterday

so @/scaredposs04 over on bluesky drew Scar from Arcane on a bike, and it really inspired me so I ended up drawing one for Steb. You know this man fucking zooms on the highway if he gets called for an emergency
