When The Ghost Of U Haunts Me In The Silliest And Gentlest Ways

Another “Great Decisions” animatic cuz IM REALLY PROUD OF THEM AND THEY TOOK ME SO LONG!!!😭

Okay sorry to bother you again but I need to know. Do you have a song playlist for your fic? Cause like I need to listen to it for spiritual purposes.

Omg, I kept putting off answering this cause I was like, oooo that’s a good idea I should make one! …But I haven’t yet😅 But I can at least try and list a few songs that make me think of this story! (With zero context as to why😂)

- “Great Decisions” Judah & the Lion (Duh😂)

- “Infinitely Ordinary” The Wrecks

- “Yes I’m a Mess” AJR

- “100 Bad Days” AJR

- “Karma” AJR

- “Meet Me in The Woods” Lord Huron

- “Headlock” Imogen Heap

- “Northern Attitude” Noah Kahan

That’s just some I can think of! Can you tell I’m a bit of an AJR fan?😂 There’s other songs too, but they might make an appearance in the story so… I’ll hold out for now😉

Y’ALL ARE SO CREATIVE LIKE WHAT?!?! …nobody talk to me, I’m normal about this, but like somebody talk to me ahhhhhh

"Great Decisions" by @rydoesartandstuff . Chapter 69 «"D" Stands for "Dolittle", Right?».

I'm a big fan of this fanfic and I enjoy reading it every time. And in this chapter... I especially liked the idea that JD gets along very well with animals (the scene with Barnabas was so cute, I couldn't help but draw it ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ). From now on, this is canon for me!))

In the future, I would really like to draw even more fan art for this fanfic, if of course the author doesn't mind and I have enough time...)

I have a feeling Viva would chew Barb out and Dickory and Hickory and John dory would almost chew out on the K-pop and the Reggaeton?

What do you think? 

Honestly, I believe JD and Viva chewing out anyone is valid, those two deserve to crash out fr!

Ry, why do you torture JD so much?

Great question. Answer? …Idk

I don’t know why his character just CLICKED for me. Maybe it’s the older sibling perfectionism in me that I’m just like yes, that man… He is me. Let’s make him suffer😂

But truly, I just love writing him, and I love writing angst, so… RIP to that man, his fault for being so DAMN LIKEABLE. Plus like, he just has SO much angst potential, I can’t help it😂

here's where clam fishing gets SERIOUS

What would have happened if King Peppy decided to tell Clay about his grandmother's (And Branch's apparent) passing before Trollstis?

Clay would have absolutely freaked.

King Peppy was right in a certain regard, that Clay would not have handled the death of his Grandmother and (apparently) his little brother well. We will delve more into this in the story, but Clay’s mental state at the time wasn’t exactly great either, for multiple reasons. And he had his reasons for not interacting with his little brother during this time.

Had he been told the truth, it’s likely Clay would have completely broken down. The fact that not only was his baby bro gone, but he hadn’t talked to him MONTHS before it happened, the guilt would have eaten him alive.

I imagine after being told, he’d accuse King Peppy of lying, and go check for himself. Just to find a seemingly empty pod (It took a couple days for baby Branch to crawl back up the tree). He’d leave, and lock himself in his room in King Peppy’s pod until the Great Escape, snapping at anyone who tried to comfort him, too overwhelmed is his own anger, guilt, and grief to care about anything else.

He’d only make it out of the Tree because Viva forced him too.

But I’d like to imagine even if Clay didn’t run back for his brother, Viva would have run back anyways to help her father/the other Trolls. Either way, they’d still end up separated.

So, just to clarify, Hickory is not a centaur like the other country trolls. So is more of a Satyr troll, or he is centaur but goat features. Using @sandflakedraws Hickory design an example of a Satyr troll

Hickory is a centaur in this story!

But you’re right, he just has more goat-like features! I made a post with his design, but I’ll put it here as well!!! (Love the satyr design tho! But my version of Hickory is just a little different!)

His design is based on a mountain goat!

Behold the painting I spent 16hrs on (well it’s technically 5 seperate paintings Shh ) but uhh Tada! I think looking at it now there’s definitely stuff I could’ve changed and improved so if i ever remake this I’ll do it then

my favorite genre of fictional character is like "i am terrifying to almost everyone, i'm very good at killing, i can endure anything, i've become exceptionally good at playing into my reputation, and if you try to give me positive social interaction i will react with confusion and cower in a corner like an abused animal. and i may try to shoot you. but there is also a chance i may imprint on you like a feral dog receiving its first loving touch! good luck."
