You Know When You Were Showing Us How Much Mr Dinkles Likes JD Earlier In The Story, I Actually Thought

✨Ry here!✨

Figured I’d do a little introduction post for this!

Pronouns: They/Them🌈

25 y/o American writer, and sometimes artist📖

Currently still obsessed with Trolls🌺

Most stuff I post here will be based around my stories on AO3 (I have a problem fr). So if that interests you, come join the ride!!!

I binge-read "Great Decisions," and now I'm all caught up! So...Hickory and JD, huh?

Hickory and JD!!!

Defo going to be a very slow build relationship, our boy JD doesn’t open up very easily. But I think this is so important for his character growth, having an outside perspective like Hickory! Not just as an eventual love interest, but as a friend, one he desperately needs. I’m really excited to write how their relationship grows, and how it’ll affect JD’s life!

Congrats on catching up! 😍🥰

Do you think John is going to have a similar arc that he had between the first and second movie this time? Or because canonically that the time skip between the second and third is only a month (which I am electing to ignore personally) will he have a more simple arc?

He will have a more simple arc!

Exactly, there’s only going to be about a month and a half between Movies 2 and 3 in my story, and that’s not a helluva lot of time to really grow. BUT! There will still defo be some growth, some steps forward, and some steps back! I think the next chapter that’ll come out, the last one for Movie Two, really sets the stage for our little in-between arc. Very excited to share it with y’all!

I think? It’ll only be about 5-6 chapters, hopefully 5. And they’re going to be a lot more episodic than we’ve seen in a while, with most having a small time skip inbetween. I want to make sure I set up well for the third movie, but always want to make sure I tie up some things from the second movie.

More to be revealed soon!

Oooo, ok, I’ll do my best! Some I won’t really answer because of spoilers, but I’ll try!

1.) Yes, it will! But he’ll also be very conflicted too…

2.) Eventually!!!

3.) Spoilers…

4.) Absolutely!!!

5.) Yes, he will!

6.) Mmmm they’ll have some tough feelings for sure…

7.) Eventually!!!

8.) They likely already do, in different ways.

9.) She will indeed! He’s practically her older brother too!

10.) They will, eventually!

Sorry to give such vague answers, I don’t want to give too much away! Thanks for the Q’s!

Oh my gosh, AMAZING ART!!! He’s so cute I just wanna squeeze him and tell him everything will be ok! (It won’t, cuz I’m a bad person and torture my poor characters 😭)

HI HI HI

Uh! AU John Dory based on @rydoesartandstuff ‘s fic because it is their fault I’m somehow back on trolls again and I needed to draw him okay.

In a somewhat closer style to the movie style! Cause a lot of trolls fanartists like to stylise a lot but sometimes it’s fun to just draw them more how they’d be in the actual thing ❤️

More of baby John Dory being his brothers’ hero because it brings me joy😭

I had fun making these; they’re a little goofy, but then again… Idk I don’t have an excuse😂

Oh, and btw…

Rhonda my loved she is best girl we love her😍 And OOOOO ROCK ZOMBIE JD SPOTTED👀👀👀 He looks so freaking cool, somebody get this guys some therapy! (Fr tho, he looks AWESOME!)

Here are some shoddy work doodles of Rhonda and RZ!JD from Great Decisions I am still working on~~ I tried to do some Rhonda studies but it hard to do that at work.

His eyes say so much😭 Ahhhh but he’s so cute, I love the way you drew him, THANK YOU!!! This poor guy I swear, he’s been thru too much!

Also you captured his vibe so well, why he just…

Laugh thru the pain😂😭

little doodle for @rydoesartandstuff ‘s absolutely amazing fanfic “Great Decisions” !! i LOVE this fic and you all should too, go read it!

If John Dory, Branch, Poppy, and Rhonda are on the raft with Hickory, then I’m gonna assume that it’s only a matter of time until Chaz the Smooth Jazz Troll makes his “smooth” debut.

Oho, and “debut” he will! Really excited for the next chapter, it’ll be fun😈

Wait will Branch know about what happened to Clay during the escape? Possibly before the reunion, Peppy talking about Viva and Clay or if John tells him about it or it accidentally slips out about the tunnel cave in. Like not only was Clay at the tree but also that he ran back to look for him and grandma.

Luv ur story btw!!♡

He… kinda knows? Ish.

What Branch knows is that Clay had stayed at the Troll Tree, and went missing in the tunnels. And he hasn’t questioned it further. I think deep down… He doesn’t want to know. The less he knows about his brothers, and their leaving/disappearance, the more he can almost emotionally sperate himself from them.

As for whether or not he’ll know before the third movie… We’ll have to wait and see!!!

So glad you’re liking the story!!!
