-their shops are next-door neighbors, tho Branch’s cafe is at basement-level
-Poppy’s shop is new to the area, and despite Poppy’s enthusiasm and determination to make it successful, Branch is doubtful bc he’s much more familiar with the community and it doesnt seem like a good fit
-when Poppy moves in she decides to introduce herself to the other local shops and brings flowers to hand out, hoping to make as many friends as possible
-Branch is the first stop and this is when they first meet. His first impression is awestruck at how she’s just as colorful as her bouquet, followed immediately by annoyance at how loudly she’s speaking despite being in a quiet cafe
-theres introductions and she orders his house specialty coffee to try, which is a dark roast and too bitter for her so she adds a lot of cream and sugar
-“would you like some coffee with that?” *eyeroll*
-before she leaves she gives him a pink rose as a present and vows she’ll find something she likes on the menu, even if he has to come back every day until she does!
-basically her shop does really well bc she hosts all kinds of community parties events in her greenhouse and everyone loves her
-if I were to write it I’d make it a slowburn with some “ordering coffee just for an excuse to talk” and a hint of “stealing glimpses of the other through the foliage”
After reading comments on my grunkle Stan/John Dory tiktoks I realized something: the ven diagram of people who’s favorite brozone bro is John and people who at some point had the hots for grunkle Stan is a circle its me im people
It’s been a while but I’m finally ready to post my sona!
This is Crew (like a bunch of friends but also like Mötley Crüe), a rock troll with a pop troll-like lifestyle and dresses in the punk/grunge rock style. Their hair is naturally dark but they dye it lighter bc pastels and floral colors are her favorites! Generally loves cute things like pompom bats (I seriously want one SO BAD) and flowers even though they dress in mostly band tees and dark denim. Accessories include many colorful scrunchies and a satchel with a guitar strap to carry it. She would mostly live in Pop Village and would travel occasionally to explore the other genre trolls. Thrives on good vibes, sweets, and adding an electric guitar riff wherever possible
This was a fun lil side project but I’m probably not going to do much more with them. I love seeing other people’s sonas and wanted to give it a try also ☺️
a broppy animatic because I love sticky sweet sappy musical numbers 🥹 also this is only like half of what I planned but it’s taking forever and I wanted to make a test video
also if the rock trolls are native to volcanic areas they probably also have lots of caves around, not to mention being semi-nocturnal, so they probably have pretty sweet night vision
was thinking if John Dory sang country while he was traveling he would prob sing like Toby Keith and Margaritaville type country so I gave him a fun lil western outfit :]
really rough doodles under the cut, including me wondering how JD would wear a cowboy hat
