So what if you can see the darkest side of me?

No one would ever change this animal I have become

Help me believe it's not the real me

Somebody help me tame this animal

(This animal, this animal)

I can't escape myself

(I can't escape myself)

So many times I've lied

(So many times I've lied)

But there's still rage inside

Somebody get me through this nightmare

I can't control myself

So what if you can see the darkest side of me?

No one would ever change this animal I have become

Help me believe it's not the real me

Somebody help me tame this animal I have become

Help me believe it's not the real me

Somebody help me tame this animal

It’s official, I’ve been utterly sucked into this fic….

I was in two minds of posting this because I worried about the blue blood of all things! I honestly love this concept from @rydoesartandstuff

If it’s too much let me know but I was so taken by this scene it seemed a shame to cut this action from it! Anyway, I’m rather proud of this one. One thing I love as much as angst to draw is something dynamic and full of action because I love a challenge and I live for movement. I just hope I’ve done the scene justice.

That growlbeast I tell you was a b*tch to get right though! I had reference it and get a size ratio for it, in regards to the trolls so I could get it as accurate in that respect that i could! Hope this is okay as well *hides*

(Oh, and this song I’ve included , I constantly listened to as I planned and drew this pic out. It was a great source of inspiration for the scene!

Hope you like it @rydoesartandstuff

I’m gonna go hide now and catch up writing my ‘Rescue Me’ fic!

LOOK AT THIS SURVIVAL MAN!!! Ahhh he looks AMAZING, so freakin’ cool! You are SO CREATIVE AHHHH THANK YOU

Great decisions JD!(with artistic liberties) I've been trying to draw him for forever and I can never get it to look right😭😭😭 @rydoesartandstuff I LOVE YOUR FIC DUDE ITS AWESOME THANK YOU FOR CREATING IT!!!!!

…Ok but is this not basically what happened?

I’m sorry, I’m sorry, this is how I cope ok?! Threw this together in like two hours based on Chapter 87 of “Great Decisions”😂

i gwanna chew him up like gum

Hi! Maybe this has already been asked or maybe you even wrote about it in your story, but I'm interested to know in more detail... How do you imagine the appearance and personalities of Branch's and his brothers' parents ? And also, which of the five brothers is most similar to which parent? Thank you in advance for your answer))

Also, sorry if something is not clear, English is not my native language😅

Absolutely man! I got you!

Their mother, Sunny, is the daughter of Rosiepuff! She’s light purple, with golden yellow hair. She was know for being kind, and soft spoken, but she was definitely tough, basically second in command of the scouts at the Troll Tree! She had a great sense of humor, a sharp tongue to match Pine’s, and a laugh that could light up a room. And she could often be found high up in the foliage, dancing where the sun could reach the leaves (she was basically an acrobat up there!) She always dreamed of trying to escape the Troll Tree someday, but when she had her family, she thought better of it, wanting instead to just keep them safe. Gruesome death warning… She was killed while trying to save someone, a Bergen slapping her aside, and completely crushing her against the tree before Pine could reach her.

Their father, Pine, was a light blue troll with very dark, spiky green hair (thus the name “Pine”). He was a cocky, adventurous guy, who also had a sharp sense of humor. His adventurous, thrill seeking nature is what led him to being the head of the scouts. He always dreamed of escaping and hiking the Neverglade Trail, but to him, it was less of a dream, and more of a goal. He completely fell in love with Sunny, the two of them entirely happy together. He never really wanted kids, but… There’s nothing he would do for her.

However, Pine started showing early signs of schizophrenia. His is a bit different from JD, and more paranoid delusional. He became absolutely paranoid with the Bergens, thinking they were watching them constantly, him and Sunny in particular. And he believed he was the only one who knew this, and the only one who could stop them. This is what ultimately put strain on his family, and he and Sunny’s relationship, because not only was he struggling, but he absolutely refused to get help/change, thinking people were out to get him. (We might touch on this a bit more in the story!)

He ultimately died after he found Sunny’s body, walking to the edge of a branch, and letting a Bergen take him, right in front of young John Dory.

Heh… Rough, right?

Anyways, the bros do kinda take after both of their parents in different ways, but I will say, Pine carried John Dory, Bruce, and Branch’s eggs, and Sunny carried Clay and Floyd, so there’s a bit more similarities between the respectively!

love when characters are so entrenched in their own self loathing that they believe themselves to have some inherent trait that causes them to fuck everything up rather than it being a result of them never trying bc they assume they're going to fail anyway

Don’t know why but I have the feeling that barb just made the biggest mistake turning jd into a rock zombie. Wouldn’t be surprised if he attacked her the moment she tried to hurt branch/ poppy.

Oof, yeah, Barb may defo be second-guessing her choices…

Luckily for Barb, she’s not the kind of person who would ever DIRECTLY try and hurt someone. So hopefully she’ll be safe from JD’s wrath, especially since the poor man is under so much mental strain. He doesn’t want to attack anyone, but I wouldn’t put it past him lashing out at the very minimum!

I think we should put John Dory in the crystal jar and see what happens

BOLD SUGGESTION

That poor boy is already on such a struggle bus, that might kill him😂
