Dating The BroZone Brothers 🎤🎶

Tags: Gender-neutral reader, Fluff, Some Angst (mostly for Branch lol), Also Broppy isn't canon here, obviously. But I love them dearly so don't come at me!

Follow me @taruchinator for more structured content and/or feel free to leave a request here in asks. Enjoy!

John Dory

We all know this man is a bit self-centered, and that doesn't stop at your relationship.

He'll find any opportunity to show off for you— anything from singing, to dancing, to just his ‘incredible leadership skills that make him the perfect boyfriend!’

He also definitely introduced himself as a member of the old boy band BroZone, which you may or may not have heard of, which may or may not have left him flabbergasted.

Despite all his faults though, John Dory will do his best to be a good partner for you. It's what you deserve, after all!

Keeping you safe from wild creatures, making sure you're always happy because he loves your smile, and also being the overprotective boyfriend who'll square off against anyone who even dares to make you uncomfortable even if they're 10x his size.

Small detail, but he also loves the fact that Rhonda took a liking to you instantly.

“She knows how to pick the good ones,” he'd say with a wink.

Talks about his brothers CONSTANTLY, but always in a way that makes it seem like he doesn't care and that it's their fault the band broke up in the first place. He obviously really cares about them, though.

Some nights, he'll reflect and regret all the stuff he said and did to them, and wishes he could go back and make it right. You reassure him through most of it, trying to convince him that he was young and just didn't know any better.

He stares at you in awe and disbelief because how could ANYONE think that what he did was justifiable? Abandoning his younger siblings all because of his stupid ego and personal insecurities.

“I really don't deserve you...”

Give him some time he's just emotionally constipated.

Also you BET he's gonna show you off to his brothers once they're reunited, so just let him. He just wants the most important people in his life to meet.

You can also expect them to try and embarrass John Dory with stories from their childhood, so be ready to have a good laugh as your boyfriend plots for murder in the background.

Spruce/Bruce

Probably the one who's best equipped to be in a relationship out of everyone in the group.

He is a family man, after all.

Speaking of which, if you think him settling down in the movie and having kids of his own was cute, it really is! But that just indicates that he has a way with children.

If you have a child or younger sibling, expect them to get dotted and taken care of to DEATH by this man.

He may not have been the sensitive one of the group, but was definitely the most reliable of the eldest, so he's got experience handling little trouble makers that come his way.

He still opens a cantina in Vacay Island, which is where you two met for the first time, and so you help run it occasionally whenever you have the chance. And even though you don't go there 24/7, all the regulars just think that you're the co-owner since you're dating Bruce.

You're the one who finds out that he's actually ‘Spruce’, the member of old boy band BroZone. You just happened to stumble upon an old record he kept in his room, and after confronting him about it, he reluctantly confirms your suspicions.

It was hard to recognize him since he was much older now and his body had definitely... grown over the years.

Bruce doesn't like preaching about those days, since he's quite embarrassed of the ‘immature ladies man’ he used to be back then.

But he won't deprive you of them either, since he'll happily share any stories on his misadventures with his brothers, funny backstage incidents, etc.

He misses them dearly and wishes they're all doing okay.

Two words: Hopeless. Romantic.

He's ‘The Heart Throb’ for a reason.

Roses, chocolates, dances— he can do it all!

Bruce will always make time in his busy schedule to spend time with you, taking you on dates to your favorite spots around the island, getting you meaningful gifts, and just overall expressing his love for you in any way he can.

He loves singing to you because it always serenades you and it puts a smile on his face.

People always joke that he's going to propose to you out of the blue one of these days, which always leaves him a flustered mess, but he never denies either.

“What can I say? I might be waiting for the perfect opportunity...”

Clay

Poor baby doesn't know what he's doing but he's trying, okay?

The two of you meet in the abandoned Bergen Golf Course, where you and Viva welcome him with open arms, and everything pretty much plays as in the movie, except that he really likes spending time with you and ONLY you, which he doesn't quite understand?

You're the one to ask him out cause otherwise you'd be playing this back and forth forever. He says yes.

He's never had a partner before, so he's justifiably worried that he'll mess up in some way, or that you'll end up finding him too boring after a while.

This becomes much more apparent after a particular bad night, in which after mumbling incoherently because of a nightmare, you find out that he has brothers and used to be in a boy band.

He doesn't open up about it at first, so you give him some space and reassure him that you'll be there when he needs you. Just give him some time and he'll tell you eventually.

He talks about how he could never be himself, since he was always expected to be ‘The Fun One’, and now he's basically tried to become the complete opposite in hopes of gaining some control over his life.

But he also worries that others will think he's too dull, and that he just isn't interesting enough to be around. Especially you.

You immediately take his face in your hands and look him in the eyes.

“I fell in love with Clay. Not ‘The Fun Troll from BroZone’ Clay. Also, you're fun in your own way!”

He basically falls for you all over again after hearing this.

After that, he becomes slightly less uptight and allows himself to enjoy the little things. You sometimes actually catch him dancing when he thinks no one's looking and you find it's the most adorable thing in the world, even after he realizes he's not alone and wants the earth to swallow him whole.

“Don't mind me, I'mma just crawl in a hole for a while...”

“No, no- Babe, it was amazing! I loved it! Pleaseeee show me more!”

Overall, he's a pretty good boyfriend all things considered.

He's incredibly overprotective of you, and will always give you advice and tools he thinks will be helpful if you're thinking of venturing outside of the Golf Course.

He asks Viva for dating advice CONSTANTLY and she DOES NOT let him live it down. Of course she has good ideas, though.

He'll pretty much do anything for you, even if it means going out of his comfort zone.

Floyd

Another great candidate for being in a good relationship.

Need I explain myself with this man?

His entire personality revolves around being caring and understanding, so he's definitely always on the lookout for anything that makes you sad or uncomfortable and will fix it ASAP.

Floyd is the kind of person who will ask for consent with pretty much anything you do— from holding your hand, to kissing you, to giving you a hug; he will ALWAYS make sure that you're okay with it even if you've given him the green light in the past.

He's not huge on PDA due to his somewhat shy nature, but if you are, he'll try his best to keep up with you.

This doesn't mean he dislikes physical affection, in fact it's his love language. He'll go out of his way to try and sneak in as many hugs as possible throughout the day and maybe a kiss or two if you'll allow it, which of course you do.

You also try your best to get involved in his own interests, because that's only fair after everything he does for you.

It isn't until one day that he sings for you that you compliment him and he nonchalantly comments that he used to be in a band when he was a teenager.

Cue the reveal of him having four brothers and you begging him to tell you all about them.

Which he does, but you can't help but notice the melancholic expression on his face, so you immediately stop him and apologize for being pushy on the matter and that he doesn't have to share anything he doesn't want to talk about.

He only looks at you with a small smile and shakes his head.

“No, I'm glad you asked. I haven't talked about them in years, so I like remembering the good times, even if they're in the past now.”

So he'll go on and on about them, one by one, and go into excruciating detail about what kind of person they are and what he loves about them. He's especially fond of his little brother Branch, based on everything he tells you.

When he gets kidnapped by Velvet and Veneer, you immediately go to Branch for help.

Once you're reunited, you two basically run to each other and hug with tears streaming down your eyes.

“Did they hurt you?!”

“No, I'm okay! Did they hurt you?!”

“Who cares?”

“I do!”

Floyd is then incredibly happy to introduce you to his brothers, who begin to affectionately tease him about getting himself a partner and you happily step in to protect him from any unwanted bullying.

You also tell him that you like the new hairdo, which only causes him to giggle and kiss your forehead affectionately.

Honestly you guys probably have the healthiest relationship out of the whole group.

Branch

I was really debating whether to include him or not since there's many Branch Reader Inserts out there, but I don't wanna leave my baby out so here we are!

You have a classic childhood friends to lovers situation with him, since you've known him ever since he was a member of BroZone, only being about a year older than him.

You'd help him practice for his concerts and would always give him pep talks whenever he felt worried that he'd ruin the show.

You're basically his number one fan— never missing a concert even if it meant dragging your parents with you so they'd let you get in.

The moment the group disbands and Branch is left all alone, you're there for him and wait alongside him for his brothers to return, reassuring him that ‘siblings would never break a promise’.

Cue his whole childhood trauma and him losing his colors, but it's only because of you that he doesn't completely isolate himself from society. He still builds his bunker though, since he's pretty much scarred for life thanks to the Bergens.

Just like with Clay, you're the one who takes initiative and asks him out, and he's just left gaping like a fish because why would you want someone like HIM?

After reuniting with John Dory, he's also dotting you about how big you've gotten and treats you like a baby, which actually irks Branch much more than it does to him.

He makes sure to remind his brothers that you both are grown adults, thank you very much.

Once the band gets back together, you kinda become a manager of some kind and help them in organizing their performances. Branch is eternally grateful and thanks you for staying by his side all these years.

[brights-place]

Hi! May I request headcannons for John Dory and/or Branch with a Classical troll s/o :)

Dating an Classical Troll

Pairings: John Dory X Reader, Branch X Reader,

Warnings: None

A/N: Broppy isn’t cannon in this one well except for JD’s part. Okie dokie! Also THE CLASSICAL TROLLS ARE SO SWEET AND CUTE

John Dory

- That would be an shock when his brothers found out HE was dating an CLASSICAL TROLL

- like… everybody would be so shocked

- Classical trolls where known for being highly cultured and their music mainly focusing on the an Orchestral part.

- Their music lacks lyrics instead putting more emphasis on harmonies and instruments. They take their music very seriously…

- so when they find out THE JD is dating an classical troll they are shocked jaws to the floor and not believing so

- as the troll that likes to show off and also as one to prove that it’s true he takes them to where the classical trolls lives

- JD was greeted by some classical trolls and others just snicker when seeing JD knowing who he was searching for.

- He was in the middle of the town square

- “DARLIN! YOU HERE?” JD said his hands cupped through his hands “Dude Your lying there’s no way you would be dating an classical troll- Oh damn” “Told you Guys :]”

- When they heard an voice call out happily towards JD they were even more shocked on how you darted quickly to JD and hugged him

- Your small wings flapping as you held your instrument in your other hand before grinning towards the new trolls which JD introduced as his family and branch is girlfriend (Poppy)

- You’d happily greet them and when they left you’d chat to JD telling him you have to go back to the orchestra

- He’d follow behind and watch you in awe and in an loving gaze

- When he heard your music he keeps quiet since he knows that he shouldn’t be loud while you all play since it’s seen disrespectful.

- The first time he did it he had gotten the stink eye from everyone until you explained the proper manners and he understood quickly

- You two dance together but it's you doing ballroom dancing and him is just normal pop dance moves which is so sweet and funny

- You two share songs you both enjoy when he teaches you pop your interested and when you teach him classical he’s invested cause he loves how your face lights up when you talk about your genre

- Loves when you fly around Even loves it more when you pick him up and fly around together it’s fun for him and fun for you

- despite hour small size your physically quite strong, able to lift other Trolls off the ground and can give bone crushing hugs…

- JD enjoyed your hugs but sometimes he feels like the life is squeezing out of him

- He knows you got balancing issues when you try to walk or run cause classical trolls mainly fly so he tries to help the best he can

- He knows that Pride and Ego are important in your culture so he make sure to make your face in town the best

- but in private he loves how you act out from your ‘Classical’ mask and shift to your normal one when with him

- Loves when you cuddle and don’t try to crush him

- he enjoys your affection and the time you take with him.

- He loves you no matter what even though he still tries to get the hang of not cheering you on when preforming sometimes <33

Branch

- Branch wouldn’t talk about it at all

- He wouldn’t say he’s dating an classical troll but it got found out by Poppy who was wondering where he has been going for awhile - The only troll who DID knew was Floyd

- Branch would tell the group off for following him mainly poppy for following him but he gets interrupted when an Classical troll tackles him into an hug laughing and flying in the air with him in his arms

- Classical trolls where known for being strong yet having trouble to run and walk if they don't fly - Would ask you to put him down to introduce you to his brothers and friends - once they met you they where shocked since you were the opposite of Branch - after they left you asked if branch if he wanted to watch you play with the orchestra he'd just follow along

- He knows basic etiquette of classical troll culture, and knows you take your music very seriously you told him that the music lacks lyrics instead you add putting more emphasis on harmonies and instruments.

- He loves how you play your instrument smoothly and can't help but grin

- Would compliment you once your done with your show

- Loves when you pick him up to fly around and you two go cloud watching and star gazing

- It may not seem like it but he's the slow romantic, and passionate type of person

- Loves hugging you and cares for you so much even enjoys when you two waltz together to your music

- You and him share diffrent songs and takes not of everything you like and makes small items for you two

- he made you an new Instrument when yours broke in half

- he loves holding your wings in his hands since their soft even though he knows its sensitive to touch sometimes but he finds it so cool

- he enjoys holding your hand but he's sometimes scared you'll crush him

- he tries to help you so much due to your balancing issues he makes you an walking stick to help you

- Will adore your kisses and your fluffy hair

- let his hand go through your hair its so soft to him and would fall asleep cuddling you

- he loves how your face lights up when you talk about your genre of music.

- despite hour small size your physically quite strong, able to lift other Trolls off the ground and can give bone crushing hugs… he loves your hugs so much - No matter what genre he will always love you.

What cover songs do you hope Brozone and/or the Royal Sisters do in the future? Both as individuals, duos or as a group?

Ooo! I got a few I think could work (though for some the lyrics will have to be slightly adjusted of course)

Time to Change originally from the Brady Bunch, it’s about growing up n stuff, plus its supposed to be a six-parter (easily can be made to a 7-parter for BroZone and the Pop Sisters), plus Trolls has featured Brady Bunch music before (Sunshine Day)

Hips Don’t Lie originally by Shakira and Wyclef Jean by Cliva, as it’s about dancing (and per my headcanon Clay’s the best BroZone dancer) plus it’s a duet

Home originally sang by the chipmunks in Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip, a six-parter that can also be made into a 7-parter and has a portion of the song sung by just the boys, one by just the girls, and then both together

We Are Family sang by Keke Palmer and the cast of Ice Age: Continental Drift, which had a variety of lyrics that were sang by different characters

Pretty Girls originally by Britney Spears and Iggy Azalea by the Pop Sisters (bonus if its sung at Branch and Clay lol)

Eleanor Rigby originally by the Beatles by Floyd (because this is the song I thought he was going to sing in the movie since it has "Lonely People" lyrics in it too. Fr though, I think an acoustic cover by Troye Sivan would sound beautiful)

Dynamite originally by BTS by BroZone (I was holding onto a thread of hope months ago that this song would be in the movie, it’s one of my favorites from BTS)

ABC originally by the Jackson Five by BroZone (I was also holding out for this song in the movie)

Surfin’ USA originally by the Beach Boys by BroZone (for when they’re having fun on Vacay Island)

Feels Like Love originally by the Cheetah Girls in their third movie One World, and since it’s about couples it could probably be Broppy, Cliva, and probably even Sprandy

Macarena originally by Los Del Rio by BroZone and the Pop Sisters (I know it’s overused in media, but I picture it going like the Animaniacs version😂)

These are the ones I could think of off the top of my head, not sure for what situations they would apply though, but I'm sure it can be figured out 😌 If I think of more, I'll definitely add onto this ^_^

[mayday-jd]

holy shit this movie was amazing.

welcome back to me watching all the trolls movies in (almost) one sitting with breaks in between to process the colorful trip I'm on rn

TROLLS 2 WAS VERY GOOD

from the great writing in the world building, themes and characters, designs and sound of the other trolls and generally this movie being short but fun makes it a blast to watch

so I'd give it a 9/10 which makes this the best trolls movie out of the whole trilogy

now onto my thoughts

—————

• so first off let's talk about my main man branch

did ever mention how I love this guy?? 😊

but what I love most is him in this movie because wow this man is head over heels for poppy lmao

and ofc there's some other stuff but let's talk broppy for a bit

so I already watched trolls 3 so ik how branch and poppy's relationship looks like in the future but this movie is also an important step in their relationship because there's a massive problem here :

poppy does not listen to anybody.

"I've always been by your side since the moment I've met you" - poppy (trolls 3)

while that is true here it's more like branch goes along with wtv poppy's doing because he's absolutely smitten and so he ends up doing all the listen and bending to what poppy wants while she doesn't give back any of that to branch or anyone else around her

one of the turning points for branch in the movie is after they go to the funk kingdom but the seeds to that change are planted when hickory tells branch that he's doing all the listening not poppy

so they argue and get separated until they reunite at the end of the movie

but that's more for when I talk about poppy and oh boy do I have some things to say. . .

I also like that, contrary to poppy's kind of judgy reaction to the other trolls, branch is all for the music trolls' lifestyles and music

it's shown more in the dance battle between the kpop and the reggaeton trolls but there's also a comment he makes when he hears the sad country song at lonesome flats

"It's kind of sad, but life is sad sometimes. So, I kind of like it."

meanwhile poppy immediately thinks that the country trolls are miserable and don't know how to have fun

but again that's for when I get into poppy's turn 😒

which speaking of.....

• I wanna say that I am by no means a poppy hater

that said this girl has been on my NERVES for the majority of this movie (WHICH IS A GOOD THING!!)

so when poppy gets told about the other trolls' existence by her dad she's excited to get them all tgt cuz she thinks barb genuinely wants to unite all trolls and not yk assimilate them or anything

so she sets off on a journey to meet barb, give her the pop string and have a massive party with all the trolls

but really she's not doing this just because of that no no no

poppy's insecure about being a bad queen

and makes it everyone's problem.

because when her, branch and biggie make it to symphonyville, the land of the classical trolls, they're told and literally see the carnage left by barb, poppy's quest changes

now she wants to save everybody and stop barb from turning everyone into rock trolls

because that's what a good queen would do right?? she'd get rid of the problem entirely instead of going back home and protecting her ppl who are literally under her care because that would be giving. up. 🙂

so let's not listen to biggie or branch who are telling her this is a terrible idea because that's simply not what poppy wants to hear since they're against her totally awesome plan

now let's talk about my favorite section of the movie

#no silly remarks because i had to remake this post #cuz my wifi acted up. when I finished the post. #so yeah I'm not writing down all of that AGAIN. #any quotes you see are written from memory #my ass is NOT replaying the movie to write these down hell no #movie starts and branch is already a dork #I love this guy a lot #dare I say it?? malewife THERE #broppy fallout </3 #it was v much needed #poppy opens her ears challenge (level: impossible!!!)

[void-wyrm]

Just saw trolls band together!

Yup I’m totally late to the party but had family stuff come up when it first came out and I had no one to go with. But today was just such a shitty day that I was like screw it, after work I’m going to the movies by myself.

For the most part I liked it! Definitely its biggest problem is pacing. More thoughts under the cut

Pros:

-I like all the characters

-Great animation/look

-Great world building/locations

-Cute story

-Songs were fun

-The villains worked well within the confines of the pacing of the movie.

-Broppy :B

Cons (caution spoilers):

-The pacing is breakneck fast. it’s like someone pushed the hustle button on this film and I felt like I was watching at 2x speed. This is definitely its biggest weakness (in general I think this is the trolls franchise’s biggest weakness) and it would have really benefited with slowing down especially at the more emotional/character building moments. Especially especially at the climax with Floyd, it was barely a 2 second hold on that beat and then it’s all resolved. Referencing other animated movies, if it was paced more like the ending of Tangled/Shrek/puss in boots the last wish???? that would have made the moment way more impactful. Maybe get a close up reaction of branch and his brothers (hmm possible comic idea🤔). It’s kind of baffling why dreamworks pushes for trolls to be such short run times, I know it’s aimed at kids but damn even 5 year olds are going to get whiplash from this pacing.

-Character motivations and obstacles could have been stronger. I think recruiting the brothers should have been more difficult either by physical obstacle or motivational obstacle. Bruce should have been more hesitant to go because he doesn’t want to leave his family/business/doesn’t want to remember brozone. Clay should have been more torn on leaving vs staying with Viva. Perhaps showing flash backs of how floyd was supportive of each brother would have helped? Idk exactly but it did at times feel like there wasn’t much challenge it was just characters go to a then b then c etc with nothing really stopping them. I also think viva herself should have been a bigger obstacle, I’m not saying she should have been evil but I do think she should have tried harder to keep the gang in putt putt village, like trying her hardest to distract them and physically bring them more and more deeper into the village(she kind of does this but it could have been executed more strongly).

-The songs should have been longer. A lot of times it felt like the song was just beginning and then it would cut off which felt abrupt.

-The songs could have been used more effectively for story beats as well. Like Floyd’s song maybe could have had flashbacks with his brothers while simultaneously convincing crimp to work against v&v as she learns more about him and his family. Again referencing viva being a bigger obstacle, the it takes two song could have been her way of distracting not just poppy but the brothers as well (they sort of just disappeared for a bit but if she had distracted everyone with food, dancing, games etc then it would make a bit more sense) again it all comes down to a serious pacing issue with the film.

[trollsarecute]

ooooo We Got Something Different😍

Looks like we finally got some Broppy. About time🙄.

Branch: *Notices poppy* Hey Popifer😏

Poppy: Ooooo someone looking fresh today

Branch: Mmmm ya noticed😉?

Poppy: Sure did! *Winks back* Ready for the dance tonight!?

Branch: Am I? *Twirls her around and holds her like he did when he was taking her away from cloud guy during hug day and smiles down at her* Very.....😈😈

Poppy: Oooohohoooooooo!!!!! Someone is getting into the grove.

Branch: What about you? You ready?

Poppy: Oh branch, yk me...Always ready to dance it off....But with you, never gonna give that a second thought🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍

An hour later

Branch: *Hand in poppy's and her hand in his he walks her into the dance floor then lets it go and turns around and holds out his hand and smiles* .....Care to dance my little cupcake.........?

Poppy: *Smiles loving everything about it and take his hand*

Branch: *He then twirls her once she puts her hand into his*

Poppy: Woooohhh!!!!

Branch: *Then soft mellow music plays as he brings her closer to her while smiling down at her with hearts in his eyes*

Poppy: *Caught up in the moment somehow he looks up into his icy blue eyes not being able to break away*

Branch: * As he glides her through the soft mellow music as he looks straight into her magnetic eyes*

Poppy: *She follows him through the soft music she looks deeply into his eyes not wanting to break away from the moment or wanting it to ever end*

Branch: *His hair gleams through the warm air putting his attention down at her as he smilies*

Poppy: *Breath taken she looks up at em not clearly understanding this Abnormal feeling she felt before but....it's lot stronger with him making it*

Branch: *He then sweeps her off her feet and carries her bridle style and looks deeply into her eyes not ever wanting to let her go*

Poppy: *Gasps at the sudden lift then as she settles and catches his icy blue eyes gazing into hers her breathe gets slower not even noticing it and watches his eyes and feels his swift movements as he swings her in his arm as he glides across the dance floor with her in his arms and closes her eyes feeling it all and smiles at the comfort it's giving her and places her head onto his shoulder as the soft warmth breeze passes her face gently*

Branch: *Looks down at her body as he starts to notice that she's getting comfy in his arms as he smiles never knowing this moment would come for em in the future and cries happy tears seeing how far he had came from the time his grandma passed til the time that's happening currently right before his eyes and smiles at that and whispers* you mean the entire world to me😌😌😌😌😇😇🥰🥰🥰🥰

Poppy: *She smiles at those soothing words and slowly drifts off to sleep*

Branch: *Notices and smiles and accepting it, he walks away from the dance floor as all eyes are on em but doesn't take a glance at either any of them. He's then so caught up with the sight of her sleeping peacefully in his arms and walks all the way to his bunker and heads in and places her on his bed as he gets in and snuggles with her falling asleep next to her and smiles at the warmth of her body*

Poppy: *As she feels his warmth weight against here a small smile creeps up onto her face and she dozes off as well*

Okay that's all for today. I hoped you all liked this. The pi

belongs to DreamWorks. Okay have a nice rest of your day!!!😁😁😁😁

Do you remember this video where Poppy and Branch have a dance fight and Branch ends up losing because he was not interested to dancing? It's got to be one of the most classic things I've ever seen in my life and it also reminds me of Friday Night Funkin'! 😂😂😂💖💙💖💙

But now I upload this part from the very first "Your Comments Come to Life" video as a solo short for any of you to see it over and over. For newcomers in the fandom, maybe you can react to this as well. 😊

This part is taken from an original video created by Peacock Kids (formerly DreamWorksTV).

And, finally (I’m so happy this actually made the list) Caro Luca Paguro comes in at 5th with 93 kudos!!

      5. Do You Respond To Comments? Why Or Why Not?

I do my very best to respond to comments because I really love doing so, but with my ADHD, it’s kinda hard to do it cause I’ll respond in my head and say I’ll respond for real later, but then I never do. I like talking with others about my fics, especially if they’re fans!

      6. What’s The Fic You’ve Written With The Angstiest Ending?

Ok. So, like. I don’t like angsty endings. I’m the kind of girl who loves happy endings. I don’t really like there to be any real villain. Just a lot of misunderstandings that become cleared up by the end of the story. HOWEVER! If you ask my good old friend @geekgirles , she will fucking tell you I’m a horrible ass liar because I wrote a fic based off this song called One Headlight by the WallFlowers. So, naturally, the fic is called One Headlight. It was a Human Broppy au (Trolls), where they’re teenagers in a small town of Nevada (God, I miss Nevada) where Branch has lost everyone he loved to this disease called Bergen’s disease. It was a heart disease that ate away at your heart and the only true cure was a heart transplant. So he was pretty distant in this new town until he met Poppy, this upbeat girl who was the fire in his cold heart! They had a great night at a dance, but when he met her friends, he knew he didn’t fit in her life with his depressed attitude, but Poppy always did her best to get him into her friend group. So he had become already attached (though he would never admit it) to her when she had told all her friends that she had Bergen’s Disease. He was pretty shitty about it at first, not believing she was gonna make it. But, the thing about Poppy was that she was hopeful. He had never had someone like that before. Someone who had hope. When his grandma had found out she had bergen’s disease, she had tried her best to prepare him for the day she would die. She had no hope of getting a donor on time. But Poppy always had hope. It was refreshing to him. In the end, after they confessed their feelings and shit, I did the most horrible thing I have ever done to the Trolls Fandom. I killed Poppy. She had gotten a donor in time, but her body wasn’t responding to the new heart. It killed Branch inside. And, years later, he killed himself because she was the only one he had ever felt happy with. This was meant to be sort of a bittersweet drama like “All The Bright Places”. It had actually been a challenge to write this fic, because I had never written anything so fucking sad before. I actually ended up crying myself while writing certain scenes for this fic. But I did it. I proved to myself I could write a story like this.

      7. Do You Write Crossovers?

No, I don’t think I ever have? Siempre, though, if I had ever actually finished it, was going to be one because I was a Higuel fan (Hiro from Big Hero 6 and Miguel) and they were gonna sort of end up together in the end because Honey Lemon’s real name was going to be Jimena and she was going to visit the Rivera’s since they were putting a new photo on their Ofrenda. That’s how they were going to meet, but I never finished it. I am, though, trying my hardest to write down a small synopsis of what was going to happen in the entire story and posting it along with notes and scenes I had written beforehand but had never gotten to just to give some fans a little closure, but, with my adhd, it’s hard to focus on a fandom I’m no longer in.

      8. Have You Ever Received Hate On A Fic?

Oh my fucking god! YES! Seriously, The HTTYD fandom doesn’t fuck around, especially the toxic Hiccstrid fans. Jesus christ. In my fic, I Didn’t Mean To Come Here, people were going to have to suffer through a bit of Eretstrid (Which I don’t really ship, I just did it for the plot), and I got death threats for that shit. It was the worst feeling ever when I got those comments, but now I just take them in stride because, like, imagine sending death threats to someone because of a fucking ship. Like, this wasn’t even a problematic ship either. It’s two fucking teenagers. Not to mention, I made Hiccup bi in the fic, and some people didn’t like that and had the fucking AUDACITY to tell me that they were gonna stop reading the fic because of it. Like, Ok? I’m not writing this fic for you anyway, I’m writing it for me. Not to mention, in my Gravity Falls fanfic, Forever Love, people throughout the years just fucking LOVED to tell me how overrated my fic is and how it wasn’t even that good. Like, so fucking what? I was 15 when I wrote it. Get over it. I still like to revel in the fact that, at one point, it was the most favorited fic in the fandom. I still live off of that high because I was only 15 at the time and really made my year.

      9. Do You write Smut? If So, What Kind?

Yes! I have written smut before. In the trolls fandom. I don’t really know what kind of smut there is, but I was told that the scene I wrote felt like something out of a romance novel, so I guess more Sensual than a BAM! WHAM! Sex scene! I don’t think I would write smut for any of my other fandoms though, especially because it’s all kids and teenagers and I am no longer one so it feels weird? I’m not that old, only 21, but teens feel like babies to me now and fictional characters that are teens are just like my barbie dolls now where the most I’ll make them do is kiss. Probably write awkward scenes just for comic relief, but nothing even close to smut.

      10. Have You Ever Had  Fic Stolen?

OK BUCKLE FUCKING UP!!!! I once had a fic called ‘Destiny Calls’ for the Kung Fu Panda Fandom that I had actually finished when I was, like, 15 or so and it was about how Tigress ran away from the Jade Palace to go find herself and actually finds her Birth family in the process. It turns out her birth mother had six or seven other kids, I don’t remember, but there was this special one that she grew to like the most, Gushi, which means Story. (I probably had her ND coded without even realizing because I made her like me, kind of a self insert) Well, it turns out that the reason Tigress’s mom gave her up was because a Demon was after her (I don’t even remember why, but I’ll chalk that up to 14 year old me who thought this was a good plot) because the demon was destined to be defeated by a tiger named Ming Yun, which was Tigress’s birth name. So, the demon attacked the family and that’s when Tigress’s mother had to give her up, lest her child die at the hands of a demon! Well, it turns out that it was not Tigress who ended up defeating the demon, because the demon got his own story wrong. Ming Yun means Destiny in Chinese, which meant it was the demon’s destiny to be defeated by a tiger, not necessarily named Ming yun. Gushi was special because she was the only one who could hold the Sword of Heroes without being cut and for plot reasons because she was actually the one who was destined to kill the demon. But, in order to kill the demon, she had to die herself. It was a hero's sacrifice to save the valley of peace (which actually got destroyed, but no one had died because, if I remember right, which I don’t think I am, they had escorted everyone out when they found out the demon was coming). Tigress, in her grief, goes with Po and the Furious Five, forgetting her life as Ming Yun and her siblings reluctantly let her because the mom now wants nothing to do with her if she’s gonna be like that. And that’s how I ended it off because I had a sequel planned but in the end, I deleted the whole fic and it’s sequel because it was starting to become those Next Gen fics I don’t like and, as I grew as a writer, I was looking back at it and thinking “TiPo, what the fuck is this?”. Anyway, someone tried to repost it as their own fic. I remember being 16 and pissed as fuck! Especially cause the person who stole it put the title as “Destany Calls”. The typo really sealed the anger because I was like “You’re gonna steal my fic but you’re not gonna write the title correctly? Bruh?!” But that’s all in the past now. I guess, now that I look back at it, it’s kind of funny because that story was absolute shit! But this person thought it was good enough to steal, so I’m sort of flattered in a way. But, nah, if someone tried stealing any of my fics now, I would call them out on their shit.

      11. Have You Ever Co-Written A Fic Before?

No, I don’t think I have. Though, I do remember when my sister was, like, 8, she wanted to write KFP fanfiction just like me, so she would write small, cheesy stories that, ya know, an 8 year old would write and ask me to post them on my FF.net account. So I guess that kind of counts?

      12. What’s Your All Time Favorite Ship?

Po and Tigress. No fucking doubt. I’ve been in the Pandom since I was 8 years old, the year it came out, before I even knew what Fandom was. They were my ultimate favorite ship and when KFP 2 came out, it only sealed it. That’s why I’m TiPoLover 22, because I love TiPo. But don’t ask me who the other 21 are, I don’t know. I’m actually still a huge fan of TiPo, but my preferences for them have changed. I used to ship them in that Hetro bullshit way, but now I headcanon Tigress as Asexual, biromantic and Po as Asexual, Demiromatic. I was going to update Friendship because a while back I was editing chapters and I added a new one and I had decided that I wanted to add a real plot to it where in the end, Tigress and Po realize that the friendship they have became much more but because they don’t experience feelings like everyone else, they hadn’t realized it before. But I never got around to doing that. Even so, TiPo will always be my ultimate ship.

      13. What Was The First Fandom You Wrote For?

If it wasn’t obvious already, Kung Fu Panda. I had so many fics planned for them, but I never got around to them and the only one I ever finished was Destiny calls. Though, Friendship, as it is now, is technically finished cause each chapter, though connected, were stand-alone oneshots. I’ve deleted a lot of my KFP fics because as I grew as a writer, I realized how hectic and unsolvable the plots were and how horrible I was at researching Chinese culture. I’m not active in the Pandom anymore, but I still consider myself in it because it’s a fandom and a community that will always be dear to my heart.

      14. What’s Your Favorite Fic You’ve Written

I don’t know. I kind of love all my fics, really. They’re all my babies! But, I guess I would have to say Forever Love because it was the first fic I ever finished. All the hype I got through that fic was amazing and really boosted my confidence as a writer.

AAAHHH! This was so fun!!! I’m so happy I was tagged. Now, for MY tags!!

Prompt: Poppy needs a nap and so does Branch; AKA nap/snuggle time Broppy fluff?

um bold of you to assume i am not always 100% here for Broppy fluff

Ever since Poppy ended the war with the Bergens, the world has shot straight past weird, rolled right on through utterly bizarre, and landed, finally and firmly, in the realm of completely unbelievable.

Branch still can't wrap his head around half of it—he's blue, his skin a sharp burst of bright color, and when he looks in the mirror, a troll he doesn't know stares back at him, blue eyes and blue hair and shimmery silver freckles glittering faintly on his cheeks, and an easy, open smile settled on his face where he knows a scowl should be, and it's like he's staring at a stranger, at a Branch who just stepped out of a dreamworld, a sweet little sugar-bowl fantasy where it's all cupcakes and rainbows, where everything is beautiful and bad doesn't exist, where there are no such things as Bergens, where colors come back even if mothers and fathers and grandmothers don't, and he can't tear his eyes away from the troll on the other side of the glass, and hard as it is to believe, that is not even the craziest thing.

Because he has friends now, and that's even crazier. He goes to party after party after party, so many he loses count (it's still not as many as Poppy asks him to come to, but bright lights and loud music are always going to tie knots in his stomach and knots in his throat) and there are trolls besides Poppy who actually talk to him at these parties, who dance with him and drink with him and laugh with him, tell him jokes and stories and listen to him when he tells his own.

And he sings now.

In the quiet dark of the bunker, where no one else can hear, he sings, his hands shaking and sweating and his heart in his throat, crashing in his ears, but he sings anyway because he's been silent for twenty years now and he is not going to be afraid anymore.

It all feels like a dream.

And maybe it is.

Good things don't just happen to him, after all. Good things don't just fall into his lap like this, all nice and neat and perfect, all wrapped up in bright paper with shiny red bows on top, good things don't come his way, good things aren't meant for him, and maybe he should hold his breath a little longer, maybe he should steel himself a little harder, clench his fists a little tighter, maybe it really is all a dream, but—

—but if it's a dream, it's the most beautiful one he has ever had.

And he never wants to wake up.

And the craziest thing of all—crazier than the blue troll in the mirror every morning, crazier than the friends outside his door every day, crazier than his own voice echoing and echoing and echoing through the empty rooms every night—is that he is in Poppy's room, he is in Poppy's bed, and she's curled up at his side, fast asleep with her head on his shoulder and her hand in his and her eyes squeezed shut, long black lashes fluttering lightly against her freckled, rosy cheeks. Her pink hair is plastered flat to the side of her face, sticking straight up like a tree, and Branch has never loved her more than he does right now, he's never loved her more than when she's like this—her favorite blue dress wrinkled, her makeup smudged, her topknot in tangles, and a small, sweet smile on her lips even in her sleep.

He knows he should wake her—the party's only an hour off, and she always likes to show up early, to be the first troll in the door, to say hello to everyone, to hug and talk and laugh with everyone before the music takes over, and she hasn't even put on her new dress, and she'll want to brush out her hair and redo her makeup when she gets a look in the mirror, and God knows he has plenty of things he needs to be doing, God knows he has so much work, he can't let her lay around on him all night—but she looks so tired (and so beautiful) and all he can do is tuck her fuzzy purple quilt around her bare shoulders, press a soft kiss to her brow, and shut his eyes, too.

(When he wakes up again, he wakes up in Poppy's room, in Poppy's bed, and she's curled up at his side, fast asleep with her head on his shoulder and her hand in his, and it's not a dream.)

Inseparable - Chapter 11

Tags: Not Rated, Slow Burn Fluff, Broppy, Trolls Mythology Au

Ao3 is here

Notes: Ok, so in the last chapter were some plot holes or more like understatements, but let me work on them later. There're many chapters before us, there will be a time for fixing them, but now, back to some fluff :3

________________________________________

It's time. Poppy is bouncing with excitement, the huge grin doesn't leave her fave. She's all happy. She's all one ticking bomb waiting to explode. 

- I'm scared now - Branch chuckles, watching as she's almost dancing. - What is this surprise? Is this something erupting from the ground or... How big is it?

The goddess giggles with genuine joy in her melody voice. She looks at him with sparks of thrill in her eyes.

- Bigger than you thought! - She beams. And then she reaches for the Staff. - Calm down, it would be great!

- I hope so - He throws, twisting his face. He hesitates to give her the Staff. - I know it’s ridiculous, but I'm really stressed, this is overwhelming, you don’t have to...

- Nah nah nah, shhh - She puts her finger on his mouth, making him freeze. She looks deep into his eyes, and says slowly with a calm, quiet voice: - It won't kill you, ok? It's a surprise. A gift. All you have to do is just follow me and watch. Easy?

The god blinks when her finger lets go of his lips. He takes a deep breath, keeping his eyes on her.

- Easy - He breathes out, nodding slightly. 

She smirks at him and finally grabs the Staff of the Light, taking it from his hands. The world slowly fills with shades of red and pink, birds start their welcoming-the-day serenades. Branch gazes tense at the sky, waiting for a huge loud explosion or something like that.

- Where should I look? - He asks.

- Just sit here and wait - Poppy says. She starts opening flowers' cups on the meadow. - And watch the sky. It will come slowly and smoothly, the first part hasn't got a big entrance or something.

- The first part? - Branch chuckles. - Maybe I shouldn't have asked how big it is, but how long it is.

The goddess of the Day smiles, not stopping her work. The blue god knows he is supposed to watch the sky and wait, but it is so easy to be distracted by her.

 Poppy gently opens every little or big flower cup. She touches them so carefully to not damage any of the sensitive pedals. The Staff shines gold in her hand, its Light brightens her rose complexion. Her hair looks so soft and majestic in its golden glow. He wonders how it would feel to sink his fingers into it. And her tiny, twinkling freckles... He wishes she would let him count them all, one by one. The touch of her smooth, warm skin was so delightful…

 Not like his. His skin is always cold. He all is cold. But when Branch's with her it's not that bad. Especially if she gives him a bit of her warmth... How is she doing that? Her smile makes his heart gets warm, he feels warmth, a real one, inside him, and it's like nothing else in this world, it is something so addicting, he wants more and more of it, but he's scared of asking. It's like a little fire inside him, a little fire that he wants to burn him one day or night, he wants to be burned by this fire and he doesn't know why...

And this pink beautiful lady, this gorgeous brisk woman, this sunshine dancing with the flowers on the meadow, this spotless gold heart and a bright, pure mind, this cute smiley face and two sparkling eyes, she... She's here. With him. She's giving him a gift. She likes him and likes hanging up with him. It is so hard to believe. But it makes him feel so good. 

- I told you to look at the sky! - Poppy laughs girlishly and sound. Her cheeks turn red when she notices he's staring at her. 

Branch smiles as he feels his face gets warm and probably purple. He used to get shy because of it, but he kinda starts liking it. Like, a lot.

- Guh, you got me! - He chuckles and lifts his arms. - I'm busted at adoring you. What a shame! I should've known that you're not the sky! 

The goddess actually blushes even more after those words.

- It's also kinda your fault, you were interrupting the sky - The god smirks. Oh my goodness, maybe this is cruel, but it’s so satisfying to see her like that. 

- Stop it! It's you who is supposed to be red right now - She giggles, sitting down next to him with the Staff in her hand.

- Why?

- Just look at the sky, you dork!

He chuckles and listens up. And now he's wondering how he could not notice that. How could he not notice that the whole sky, the whole frickin sky, the whole existing horizon...

Is BLUE.

Blue. Clear beautiful azure. Not milky white as always. But blue. The exact same shade that his eyes have. Blue. Azure blue. He even doesn't notice that his mouth is open wide until Poppy closes it with her hand.

- Now, I should say - She catches his sight and shows him a sweet smile. - How much I like sinking into your beautiful azure eyes.

He has no idea how his face looks right now. His mind just stops working, his sight gets lost somewhere between the sky and Poppy's eyes and smile. He tries to gather his thoughts. 

- I... don't know what to say… - He breathes out, after a while.

- You don't have to say anything! Aren't you the god of Silence?

He spits a chuckle.

- I am

- Branch, I just want to show you that... - She looks down a bit shyly. - I adore you as much as you adore me. I... - She sinks her fingers into her hair. - You know, it's this weird, funny feeling...

- Yeah - He smiles at her, grabbing a strand of her hair that falls on her face. He puts it behind her ear and lets his hand stay a bit there. - I know.

She's smiling, but not this huge, wide sunny smile she has when she gets excited, but a little, gentle one, much more similar to the smiles he does, a cute one. His thumb moves slightly through her warm cheek. Her face is so small, his hand cups almost half of it. It is so weird and so enjoyable that she likes it, but he lets go of her face. He lets go, fearing the desire in his chest, the desire to never let go of her warm soft skin. 

Poppy's sigh of delight is such a pleasant sound, another thing he can't get enough of.

- Are you ready for the next part? - She lifts her eyebrows with a smirk.

- I don't think so - Branch smiles.

- Well, you have a break now, I have a few things to do, and then the Midday and... you know - She shrugs her shoulders. - Responsibilities. But after that, I'll show you one more thing!

- And I will be following you whole this time like a creepy ghost - He jokes. - Maybe there is something I can help with?

Poppy gets her eyes up and twists her face as she's thinking.

- Well, I can find something for you.

* * * 

- After the first part of the surprise - Branch screams to be hearable in the loud sounds of rain. - I've imagined the second one much different than that!

They are wet, they are so wet. But the feeling of uncomfortableness fades with the sweet melody of Poppy's laugh.

- It's kinda prolog of it! - She yells at him. - We have to wait until the end of the rain!

- Yay! What fun! - Branch jumps and waves his hands, pretending that the situation is really enjoyable. The goddess laughs. It is the only reason he's still here in the rain. He raises his arms, tilts his head back, closing his eyes, and roars with displeasure. Cause this is displeasure. He stays like that. He drops his arms, but his face and hair are facing the droplets with all of their wetness. The tepid water is flowing over his whole cold body. The calming hiss is in the whole forest. He feels like the water cleans his mind leaving nothing but the sound of the droplets’ hits and the warmth of the rain.

- Actually - Branch murmurs. - It's quite pleasant.

After a long nice moment, when the rain lets go a bit and becomes a drizzle, the god hears Poppy's voice calling his name.

- Look! - She points at something in the sky.

He glances at it and gasps. There is a big hole in the grey clouds, with a clear, bright azure shining at the Land. And below it... a long translucent colorful ribbon streams from it down to the forest. The seven colors of it are so clear and beautifully illuminating against the background of grey rainy clouds. Mesmerizing bright colors. Wonderfully clear and pure. Strikingly splendid and simply gorgeous like a tender smile. Branch forgets about the world for a minute. He can’t take his eyes off it.

- I called it 'a rainbow' - Poppy says with pride. - It was so hard to design and to make. But Satin and Chenille, you know, the twins' goddesses of Beauty, are two geniuses! They helped me a lot. But sadly, a rainbow appears only in the drizzle. It's made with a mix of tiny droplets and Light. So I asked Trollazart to make it rain today - She chuckles, looking at the wet god. - I'm sorry.

He stares at the rainbow in Silence. She isn't sure if he adores it or gets lost in his thoughts. But the Silence is way longer than ever was.

- Umm, Branch?

His lips vibrate slightly as if he wants to say something, but he hesitates.

- What if - He starts really slowly and now Poppy is sure his mind is somewhere else. - What if we make an endless source of drizzle?

She frowns.

- When water falls into another water from a high height - He explains, showing the thing with his hands. - It makes a drizzle around. So if we create something like... A river falling from a height in the sunny place...

- It will make a drizzle and rainbow in it all the time! - Poppy gasps. She jumps excitedly. - Branch, it's so genius!

- Let's do it right now - He says, looking around to find the nearest river and starts walking quite fast. Poppy runs after him, bouncing slightly with joy. Are they going to make something together? Oh, this day is so fun!

When they arrive at its shore, the rain stops pouring. Poppy puts her hand into the water and calls the god's name. After a few seconds, the navy face, slightly illuminating violet, shows up from the water and two, big eyes gaze at them curiously.

- Hi Synth! - Poppy beams at the smiley god of rivers.

- Hi Pops! Hello Branch! - He cheers. - What's up, my fellows?

- Can you make a river for us? - Branch asks. - We need a river that will be falling from a high height in a sunny place.

- Crazy! - Synth yells. - I like crazy! Come with me!

And he dives into the water, disappearing.

- Umm, Synth? - Poppy calls him once again. 

His smiley face immediately shows up from the water. Again.

- Yes?

Branch clears his throat.

- Oh - The river god realizes. - I'm sorry. Let's go on the Land!

And with that saying, he steps on the ground.

- Do you know a place where you would like to see your river? - He beams at them both, putting his hands on his hips.

- I think I know a good place - Poppy replies and shows the direction.

When they come there, well, what to say more, it is a perfect place for their idea! The cliff is in the beautiful, sunny area, wild horses pasture nearby on the steppe. Synth calls the water from the Ocean and after an hour a brand-new river is ready and beautiful, streaming through the field. They call the place where it falls a "waterfall". 

- I give this beauty the name "Lora" - Synth announces. - I don't know why, but this river looks exactly like Lora.

- Sure - Branch nods, not getting. - Thank you for creating Lora for us.

- You're welcome! - The god salutes. - If you want something else, you know where to find me! - He throws, diving into the water of the new river. 

- Bye! - Poppy waves him goodbye.

- Ok, come here with the Staff of Light - Branch asks her.

The goddess comes close to the waterfall. She feels the fresh drizzle on her face. They both glance at it and gasp happily.

The rainbow appears above the water's surface.

- It's so beautiful! - The god is amazed. She never heard such a swoon in his voice. - I mean, the colors are so clear and vivid...

- Yeah - Poppy smiles.

They stare at it for a long while, just adoring its beauty. At the very same moment when the goddess wants to suggest that maybe they could sit down here and spend a bit of time together, the god jumps up with saying:

- Guh, it's so inspiring. I have a huge idea - Branch turns to her. - Can I keep it as a surprise?

Poppy looks at him kinda confused.

- Well, yes, of course!

- Then, I'm going to make it - He says, walking away.

The goddess of the Day stands very still, close to the waterfall, watching the smaller and smaller silhouette of the god of the Night on the horizon. She imagined that they would be sitting somewhere, talking about anything and just enjoying each others' company, as always. But now? She is just shocked. Only one, simple word, filled with surprise and disappointment, slips from her lips.

- What.

Can't Keep It a Secret Forever (Part 2)

Music was blasting. Trolls were dancing. Everyone was having a great time.

The delegates stood by the wall, watching everyone partying, and keeping an eye out for Branch.

"Huh, though he'd be here by now," Val mumbled.

"Yeah," Synth agreed, "It's not like Dubstep to be late,"

"Agreed!"

Poppy noticed them standing by the wall and walked over.

"Hey! No wall flowering!" She said with her hands on her hips.

"We planned the party, we can do whatever we'd like, Miss-"

Holly slapped a hand over Val's mouth before she could say anything she'd regret.

"Remember, Val," she whispered, "She's a queen,"

Val pushed Holly's hand away, and crossed her arms.

Poppy stared at Val for a moment and shook her head, amused.

"Anyway, have you guys seen Branch?"

The delegates shook their heads in synch.

"That's why we're standing here. We promised Branch we'd wait for him,"

Poppy looked at them confused, "That's weird, Branch hasn't missed a single party since regaining his-" Poppy put her hand over her mouth.

Holly looked at her confused, "Since regaining his what?"

Uh oh. Shouldn't have said that, Poppy thought to herself.

"Is he hiding something from us?"

Branch specifically told me not to mention his colors...

Before Poppy could try to fix the mess that she had made, the music stopped.

Trolls gasped and children ran to their parents.

They all spun around to see what was the matter.

"Oh-"

"My-"

"GLOWSTICKS!" Synth finished, distracting everyone for a moment.

"Glowsticks?"

"Yeah! Want one?" He offered, pulling one out of his hair.

"Um, not right now," Poppy declined, then spun back around to look at the troll who caused this chaos to unfold.

"Is that… Branch?" Val asked, puzzled.

Poppy nodded.

The same question was on all of their minds.

"Why is he…" Synth trailed off.

"Grey?"

I didn’t want to make it too long soooo, I guess we might need a part 3... Only if you guys want it! (P.S. If i make a part 3, it’ll probably have some ship stuff in it. I want to do it with one of the delegates tho [sorry Broppy lovers ;( ] I guess you could comment a ship if you’d like. I’m thinking Branchxsynth or BranchxLownote. Dunno tho)

#I'm sorry my writing is garbage #Synth and his glowsticks tho lol #Wonder what Val was gonna say.... #Trolls #trollstopia #branch #poppy #val thundershock #holly darling #oop forgot to mention lownote... eh it's fine

As much as I‘m in love with this adorable couple, I do wonder once in a while if there are solid reasons for just WHY they want to be together so much, when they have such different outlooks on life. They must know they’re bound to irritate each other more than the average troll couple.

How did they even manage to fall in love?

Three things off the top of my head:

1. The Bergen Adventure. Shared trauma. That does tend to create some powerful lifelong bonds, like a group of soldiers in battle. And then they learned that when their life goals were actually the same (saving their friends, after they learned their friends were actually alive) Poppy and Branch discovered this amazing synergy between them. They discovered how well they worked together, how often they were on the same page, and they got the chance to truly connect for the first time in their lives. Neither of them was willing to lose that powerful connection later.

When Poppy called to Branch to grab her hair while they were on the roller skate in the first movie, rather than one of the friends she’d known longer, that spoke volumes to me, as well as the image of their hair joined together against the moon - a very symbolic image of their connection.

I also like how well the high-five symbolizes their connection. (Why do they even call it a high-five when they only have four fingers?) Come to think of it, Branch never did actually give her a high-five in the first movie, did he? So the one at the end of TWT also symbolizes a longer journey that finally reached its goal.

2. Branch Was Already in Love with Poppy Before the First Movie. It would have been a major hurdle if neither one cared much for the other or if it had been Poppy in love with him instead. Poppy is loving by nature, so it didn’t take her long to come around, naturally responding to the caring attentiveness he’s been lavishing on her ever since the first movie, as we see in the beginning where he participates in Poppy’s favorite song every day (despite how tired he might be of it, if they really do sing it every day), and how he’s taking on more responsibility in the village (creating agendas for her, bonding with her dad).

3. Branch Has Also Proved his Devotion to Poppy by Making a Considerable Effort to Change. He sings, dances, hugs, and other trolly things that give him the opportunity to be with her, and I’m sure she’s grown to depend on him more than she realizes. I think it’s significant that she said she valued his friendship above even being a good queen, right at the start of the movie, when we know how concerned she is about proving herself as queen. Somewhere deep inside she knew even then that he was the one for her.

4. Their Future. Now that both of them have admitted their love, they’re going to go through even more changes, growing together as a couple and as the next generation of leaders of their people. And since Poppy has just learned a valuable lesson about truly listening to others, I feel like she’s going to be the one to make some concessions to accommodate what Branch wants and needs from a relationship, which probably would have taken a lot longer or maybe never happened at all if not for their second big adventure. She’s even wearing eye protection in the last scene, no doubt because Branch asked her to! :)

John Dory

- He met you when you came by branch is bunker to drop of an gift for branch

- Branch greeted you with an fist bump while you laugh happily speaking in spanish to him while branch just shrugged and replied back before taking the gift off you - John dory and his other brothers where in awe before glancing back to you and your appearance - Your markings across your f/c body and in your hair which matched with you and your f/c hair was dreadlocked and has a wooly appearance JD was just in awe - branch introduced you to his brothers you mainly nodding at the group slightly "Sup Chicos" you said as John dory was the first to shake your hand "I'm JD it's nice to meet you?" "(name)" you said smiling - He asked why you were diffrent and you explained you were an reggaton troll doing an quick dance and an random reggaton beat appearing before you stopped and gave an lazy smile "Reggaton" You said snapping your fingers into an finger gun pointing towards JD

- You explained that Reggaeton is a Jamaican-inspired music genre that started in the 1990s. Although it had some prevalence in that decade and the 2000s it wouldn't become notably popular until the late 2010s. - Reggaton originates from Puerto Rico and is a Spanish-speaking style of Caribbean music though it is mostly considered a variant of Hip hop, and not Reggae. Reggaeton music uses both rapping and singing results. Reggaton lyrics are often about heavily sexual and violent theme most of the time because of either a lack or non-restrictive use of parental advisory requirements in Caribbean countries. (Def wasn't nerding out while studying the reggaton trolls and the music ) - He was interested so he decided to walk with you to the exit to ask more questions - You were laid back and agreed telling him that he could find you and have lessons in the updated version of the map or you'd go visit pop village - He awkwardly complimented you with an goofy smile which you chuckled at and thanked him as he asked if you could come by and teach him more and maybe ask you to show him some dances for their next songs and show

- You gladly accepted and told him you'd come by and visit more often - You came by an couple days later to meet with JD as you went and taught him some dance moves which he failed at first before you slowly taught him to follow the beat with you - Was paying attention to you the whole time how you moved easily and fluently while singing along to the lyrics as he stopped dancing looking at you in awe - You had to snap him out of his daze and told him to try do what you did which he did doing mistakes every now and then as you helped him once again - It was becoming normal for you to visit and help him with dancing and explaining more about Reggaton soon it turned into you teaching him basic songs in spanish - You two would soon become close and he introduced you to rhonda when he came by to visit you at your place

- Other Reggaton trolls gasped when he saw rhonda and when JD Left to ask someone for directions to your place - Everybody was speaking Spanish so he tried his hardest to ask for directions and Tresillo, Marimba, and Tambora helped him out cause they knew JD was famillar since you showed photos of him to them - He arrived to your place and you two just did the basic routine you've been doing for the past 6 Months - You two would visit each other more often sometimes staying over at the others - You two would be seen walking around dancing and singing together whenever or just sitting down laughing.

- He wanted to thank you by speaking spanish to you about something he'd been practicing in the mirror "(name) uhm Estoy agradecido por cuidarme y enseñarme tu música." and you teared up before walking over and hugging him and handing him an gift of your's which was an scarf you made yourself it had your patterns on your body - He wears it 24/7 now whenever he goes exploring and won't take it off at all until you have to remind him to wash it - Started dating after an few weeks of going on 4-5 dates - You would be listening to his new songs in bro-zone and trying to change it a bit to fit some reggaton music. - He writes songs as you just lay your head on his chest while telling him drama and speaking in Spanish sometimes then trying to say it in English for him and translating words for him - When he does know what your saying in Spanish he's proud of himself asking if he was right with his guess he'd happily cheer when he gets it right. - He's trying his best to learn Spanish for you picking up phrases but sometimes failing and frowning but you always make him feel important when you cup his face "Mi Amor your doing great" - When you found out he left his brothers you were cursing him out in Spanish faster then light itself as he tried to get you not to beat his ass - Branch had to hold you back while JD apolgized to you aand begged for your mercy he didn't get any attention from you for abit... until he started to sing in Spanish for you

- He'd learn some bit more spanish with the help of branch and other reggaton trolls so he could try make you feel better and proud of him

Branch

- He met you when you were with Tresillo, Marimba and Tambora to take him to barb the queen of rock to save reggaton - He noticed how you were laid back and sneaky like your other three fellow reggaton trolls but he also noticed how sometimes you would whisper to Marimba and Tambora about how cool the K-pop trolls looked while Tresillo was talking to the K-pop trolls to take Branch - He noticed how you four were very similar to each other, not wearing any clothes and only having hairbands and earrings. - Your markings across your bodies and in your hair which matched with you and your fellow reggaton trolls. - Your hair was dreadlocked and has a wooly appearance, like the Funk Trolls he loved how you stood out though... well to him that is - In the dance battle with the K-pop trolls he noticed the fact you bopped your head and vibed abit to the music but Marimba had to stop you from bouncing and liking the music - When it was the reggatons turns to dance it was such an huge vibe you were showing off while dancing - Though you were the first one to listen to him when he brought up all music being saved as you turned to Tresillo "Tresi... Maybe he is right" you muttered as Branch couldn't help but feel an slight smile tug on his lips "Okay Pop troll were listening" Tresillo said crossing his arms turning to branch - When you hopped into the hot air balloon you greeted the K-pop trolls happily and asked about their genre while they asked about yours while you soon went to talk to branch - You asked him alot about himself him giving blunt replies but he was quite shocked how an reggaton troll like you were talking to him - You were laid back and asked him questions about pop village and asked if he knew about the other genres which he didn't so you happily explained your style and music - You explained that Reggaeton is a Jamaican-inspired music genre that started in the 1990s. Although it had some prevalence in that decade and the 2000s it wouldn't become notably popular until the late 2010s. - Reggaton originates from Puerto Rico and is a Spanish-speaking style of Caribbean music though it is mostly considered a variant of Hip hop, and not Reggae. Reggaeton music uses both rapping and singing results. Reggaton lyrics are often about heavily sexual and violent theme most of the time because of either a lack or non-restrictive use of parental advisory requirements in Caribbean countries. (yes I added this again for branch cause YES I'M STILL INVESTED AND HAPPY!) - Branch nodded his head as he kept quiet but listened to you - After saving all music and becoming in harmony he noticed you about to leave so he told poppy he'd be back to go catch up with you and ask you if you could show him more of your music since he felt comfortable with the dancing and music - You were laid back and agreed telling him that he could find you in the updated version of the map which you gave him and leaving with the other reggaton trolls who raised an eyebrow at your two interactions - When he came by to where the reggaton trolls live he noticed how everybody was speaking in an different language and looked like the three reggaton trolls you hanged out with. - Tresillo noticed branch and walked up to him telling him where to find you at your place

- You happily greeted him and welcomed him inside to teach him more of your music and culture

- This continued for an couple more months as he learned how to speak Spanish and learned how to dance to reggaton music.

- Reggaton trolls have been noticing how you were very close to the pop troll

- Poppy and the other pop trolls have been noticing branch leaving and coming back with an smile on his face

- After three months of him visiting and hanging out with you, he was surprised when you came to visit pop village and asked to see branch to poppy who was in shock seeing you

- Branch quickly hurried towards you and grabbed your arm looking at poppy making an zipping mouth motion and walked away dragging you with him as you waved goodbye to Poppy (this is starting to become an fanfic... Hold on should I make an fanfic of this?)

- he took you to his bunker and asked why you visited when he was suppose to go to your place "Why are you here!" Branch said turning towards you at the entrance of his bunker "Well I came to visit you Amigo" You said playfully punching branch is shoulder as branch rolled his eyes sighing

- You gave him an matching bracelet - Would sigh and thank you as you fist bumped him - You two would start visiting each other more then usual some times staying over at eachothers people starting to suspect your dating - He literally became fluent in spanish and would laugh when you curse out creek in Spanish when first meeting creek after the pop trolls allowed him back in - Branch was wheezing and laughing which shocked the other pop trolls mainly pop cause they never seen him laugh but when they turned to see you close to punting creek and yelling in spanish they had to pull you back and branch would walk over pulling you back and patting your shoulder whispering to you that you both can kill him later -He fell first and you fell harder for him

- You two would confess to each other while dancing together to reggaton and pop music - he's been tryiing to confess for awhile but gave up last minute so when he was lucky and relaxed he confessed. He's so romantic and would confess to you with an huge relaxed face as you turn into an flustered mess - You too would officially date after like 5 dates - He'd speak spanish with you to make you flustered which works very well for the both of you. Him seeing your blushing face and you hearing him speak spanish - You'd giggle and complain back pouting while he held your waist

- when you two are together and your speaking in spanish in annoyance or arguing with someone Poppy and the other pop trolls have to turn to eachother then turn to branch who has to explain with an bored expression - You love eachother so much and when he takes you to meet his family for the first time in ever... it was whoa... so much

- When he introduced you to his brothers your jaw dropped so fast - your boyfriend was in the famous boy band - Then started to whisper in spanish how hot branch was when you two went to save his brothers with poppy - Literally cheering and dancing happily - His brothers are shocked their were other genres of trolls but even more shocked how branch and you would talk to each other lovingly as branch held you waist while you giggled arms wrapped around his neck flirting

[vanilla107]

You got me feeling like a Psycho

Hey everyone!

My first ever Trolls fanfiction and it just so happens to be a rare pair! I adored Trolls (2016) but never really prioritized to write for it but when Trolls World Tour came out...that love for the first movie came rushing back. The movie made me really happy while in quarantine and I hope that this fanfic made you a little happier too.

I'm a HUGE Red Velvet fan and when I saw the announcement for them to be in the second movie I LOST MY COLLECTIVE SHIT. Even though the interactions with Tresillo and Wani are low, I loved their banter and this fanfic sorta happened. I added in a few Red Velvet concepts in the fic itself so if you see one, leave a comment or a like! I definitely added that Wani was the more fluent one in this fic as Wendy, the woman who voiced Wani, is the most fluent in Red Velvet!

I do plan on writing a Broppy one shot a little later so you can expect to see that in the next couple weeks.

Please stay safe!

Songs used in this fic:

Taki Taki - DJ Snake, Cardi B, Selena Gomez and Ozuna

Psycho (reloaded remix) - Red Velvet

Zimzalabim - Red Velvet

Like I’m gonna lose you - Meghan Trainor

Part Two/ A03 ***

Wani giggled as she splashed Baby Bun with water, the pink haired troll grinning before splashing her back.

It was one of the hottest days of the year and almost all the trolls from around the land were in the lake that separated Vibe City and Lonesome Flats. Everyone was taking a dip in the cool water and she couldn’t help but sigh in contempt.

It had been about a month since all the trolls accepted that they were different and were now living in harmony.

It was absolute bliss.

It felt so much nicer to talk to other trolls about music and sharing their own genres than keeping it to themselves and because of it, they had all made new friends. The k-pop gang were pretty close with Queen Poppy and Branch since they were a subculture of Pop itself and it made sense to vibe to the same music but Kim-Petit had become friends with Prince D, Baby Bun was friends with one of the rock trolls and Ari and Gomdori often hung out with the techno trolls as well as the classical trolls.

Wani wiggled her feet in the water before swimming to the banks of the lake and hopping out and sitting down on her towel. She was so caught up in making sure the transition for the k-pop gang went smoothly that she didn’t have much time to focus on friends of her own. Despite most of them being able to speak basic English, she was the more fluent speaker and after ensuring that they were all settled in, she could relax.

She put on her sunglasses and closed her eyes, the sun making her glossy chrome skin sparkle.

“Oh that’s bright!” a familiar voice teased and she grinned as she moved her sunglasses to the top of her head and angled her head to look at Tresillo.

“Hey Tracy! How’s it going?” she grinned and he rolled his eyes at the nickname.

“On the hottest day of the year? Just cooling ourselves off,” he said and gestured to his friends in the water, “Mind if I join you?”

“Sure, take a seat.”

Even though the k-pop gang had a mutual respect for the reggaeton trolls, that didn’t mean that they couldn’t tease each other from time to time like they had before Queen Barb’s initial reign of rock. With their subcultures being the smallest next to the yodellers, it felt natural for them to gravitate towards each other.

“Where you goin’ after this Wani?”

“Uh, home?” she said with a shrug.

“Wait, are you serious?” he asked and stared at her incredulously.

“Yes? Why wouldn’t I be?”

“Because it’s the Summer Song Dance Party tonight! Everyone’s gonna be there!”

For the first time ever, Wani felt nervous. She was planning on skipping the party because she didn't want to be alone.

“I didn’t get an invite,” she lied and she saw the troll chuckle before pulling out a flyer from his bag next to him and giving it to her.

“Open invitation. Everyone’s going and it’s going to be fire.”

“Oh wow, this has Poppy’s decorating skills all over it,” she giggled, handing him back the flyer and shaking the glitter from her fingers.

“Yeah, you know how she is with her glitter. So you’re coming right?”

“What’s with all the questions? Tryna get something out of me?” she hummed.

“I just...” he hesitated before sighing, “I can see you’re lonely Wani.”

Her body froze and she forced a smile a second later.

“What? No, I’m perfectly-”

“Wani don’t lie to me. I’ve been watching how you’ve helped your other k-pop trolls talk to everyone else but you were so worried about them that you don’t really have any friends yet.”

“I have friends!” Wani said defensively.

“Okay, name one troll other than Poppy, Branch and the k-pop gang that’s your friend.”

“You?” Wani said slowly and he raised his eyebrows in surprise, “What? Did you seriously not expect me to consider you one of my friends?” she asked.

“Well I can’t say I’m not happy but...” he said, avoiding her gaze, “But you definitely need more than that so let me help you tonight. I’ll introduce you to some trolls and by the end, you’ll know almost everyone.”

“But-”

“No buts! You are going to make more friends! Now c’mon, the others are packing up and are getting ready to go.”

“Okay fine,” Wani groaned but her stomach was doing flips.

Maybe this would be a good opportunity to make new friends after all.

***

“Ohhh, Wani you are going to turn a certain somebody’s head tonight!” Baby Bun teased, her Korean flowing effortlessly and the blue troll sighed deeply as she look at herself in the mirror.

“I never should’ve told you guys that Tresillo is helping me tonight.”

“Yeah, like ‘helping’ is the word I’d use,” Ari giggled as she did her hair at the vanity.

“It’s really no big deal! You guys are making this small thing a huge deal-”

“Oh come on Wani! You like him!” Kim-Petit said with a smirk and she narrowly dodged a pillow the blue troll had thrown.

“Respect your elders!” Wani yelled and the rest of them burst into laughter.

“Wani, chill. You know we’re just teasing,” Gomdori said as she put her hands on the troll’s and lead her to the vanity and sat her down.

“Besides, we know why he’s taking you out specifically, to make new friends, which is very sweet of him,” Baby Bun nodded and handed Gomdori a clip that she slid into the blue troll’s hair.

“Yeah, you deserve some down time after helping us settle in,” Ari agreed and they all stepped back to admire their work on Wani’s hair.

“But just so you know, if you did like him we would be thrilled-” began Kim Petit.

“Okay, let’s go to this party!” Wani yelled, desperate to get them to stop talking about Tresillo.

***

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at Pop Village and their jaws dropped.

“Are...are we late?” Ari asked, looking at the huge pit of trolls of all shapes and colours jumping up and down to some of King Trollex’s beats.

“Nope, you’re right on time!” a familiar voice said and Wani grinned.

“Tracy, this doesn’t look on time,” she said, gesturing to the area packed with trolls.

“Pop trolls know how to party, I’ll give ‘em that. Now c’mon, I got some friends to introduce you too.”

“What about my friends-?”

“Wani, just go!” Gomdori said in English, and Wani smiled at how fluent she sounded.

“Okay, okay! Bye girls!”

The two of them walked away and Baby Bun turned to face the rest of the k-pop gang.

“How much do you want to bet they’ll get together by the end of the night?”

They all laughed and headed towards the dance floor.

On the sidelines of the dance floor, there were designated ‘chill’ spaces with bean bags and chairs were Tresillo introduced Wani to Hickory.

“This is Hickory. A yodeller but lover of country,” Tresillo said.

“Oh, you’re the other bounty hunter!” she said, remembering that he never showed up for the meeting with Queen Barb.

“Yep, but I don’t do that anymore. Just me n’ the music I love,” he said with a wink.

“Yeah, guess we’re like a band of bounty hunters all reformed, huh?” Wani said with a laugh and Hickory grinned.

“Yeah, guess you could say that. Oh and have you had anything to drink yet? I should warn you that once you get on the dance floor...it’s easy to stay there for two hours or more because the set list is incredible.”

“No...is there a drink bar?” Wani asked and Tresillo nodded before pointing to one not too far away from them.

“They’re scattered all over the area so that the queues aren’t too long. Wani, you want something?” Tresillo asked.

She smiled gratefully and nodded before he made his way to the drink bar.

As the reggaeton troll stood in the queue, Hickory turned to the k-pop troll and gave her a knowing smile.

“So how long have you two been a couple?” he asked and her eyes widened.

“We- no. We aren’t a couple-”

“Well, I can see that you like him darlin’.”

“You are assuming things-”

“Wani, I’ve known you for less than half an hour and I can see your heart leaking out your chest for that guy. Now what’s stopping you?”

She was quiet for a while before answering him. There was no use in lying to him and maybe...he had some advice.

“I do like him but...it just feels fast...and it feels like everyone’s pressuring me to get together with him and...I don’t know if I like him because I like him like that or if I like him just because he’s nice to me and talks to me.”

“And have you told him that?”

“Well I don’t know if he likes me.”

“Let’s me tell you a secret. If a troll gives you the attention he’s currently giving you then you do have his attention. So do what you can now to set a boundary and see where it goes. There’s no harm in tryin’.”

“I’m feeling nervous now,” she groaned.

“I’m not saying you have to do anything about it right away. I’m just sayin’ the faster you set a boundary, the better because...let’s just say Tresillo is popular amongst some trolls here,” he chuckled before motioning to the juice bar.

Wani followed his eyes and landed on Tresillo and a country troll laughing with him. She felt acid in her stomach as a rock troll squeezed his shoulder, getting awfully close.

“Oh.”

“ I’m just sayin’ Wani. If you don’t shoot your shot...you might miss him.”

“But...but I don’t even know yet. What if I just like him for being a good friend?”

“You will know. Currently you’re just trying to settle into this new mishmash of genres and that’s okay. Your heart will know when the time is right. Now, forget about your worries and enjoy your evening. Remember...if you want your own questions answered, you have to ask them.”

Tresillo came back with their drinks a few minutes later and gave Wani her one. She peered into it, the blue pieces of fruit floating on top.

“Well this looks interesting...”

“You never told me which one you wanted so I chose what I thought fit your personality,” smiled the reggaeton troll.

“Oh really? Well let’s see how well you know me,” Wani smirked before taking a sip.

Her eyes widened in surprise and took another sip before humming in approval.

“I think that’s a winner Tresillo!” Hickory nodded, “What flavour is it anyway?”

“Blue Crush.”

At his answer Wani choked on the drink, her eyes tearing up and she coughed. She felt Hickory place a hand on her shoulder and Tresillo pat her back.

“Woah, slow down there,” murmured the reggaeton troll.

“Sorry, it went down the wrong pipe,” she lied and he laughed before turning to Hickory and resuming the conversation.

While she occasionally laughed and added to the conversation, Wani’s mind was racing.

Blue Crush? Is he trying to hint that he has a crush on me? No...that’s ridiculous! It’s just a drink! A really tasty one!

“Wani? Wani!”

Tresillo’s voice snapped her out of her thoughts and she gave him an apologetic smile.

“Sorry, lost in thought!”

“Well that’s not good. I think we need to get you on the dance floor!” he said with a smirk and she nodded enthusiastically.

“You two enjoy it. I’m going to stay here for a little longer before going back,” Hickory said and they made their way to the dance floor.

While dancing, Tresillo introduced her to other trolls. Soon she was losing count of everyone she had met and their names after five songs. She was relieved when she saw Poppy and Branch dancing and grabbed the reggaeton troll’s hand and made her way over to them.

“Poppy! Branch!” she yelled and the couple perked up at her voice.

“Wani! Tresillo! How are you finding the Summer Song Dance Party?” Poppy asked as she did a twirl.

“It’s great! Wanna dance together?” Wani asked and Poppy nooded before she grabbed her hand, and using her pink hair, catapulted them to a platform that overlooked the dance floor.

King Trollex noticed them and grinned, playing a new song that the two trolls could dance too.

“Attention everybody! Let me see your hands up!” he yelled into his microphone and the trolls screamed enthusiastically as he began to build up for the beat drop.

“You read to throw down?” Poppy laughed.

“Not without us!” Branch said as he landed on the same platform with Tresillo and they all laughed before jumping together as the beat dropped.

“Wooo!” Poppy yelled as the song ended and King Trollex took a bow before Queen Barb took over the DJ station.

“What up everyone!? How we feeling tonight?” she yelled and she was greeted with applause and screams.

“Now I’d usually start playing some hard rock but...I notice four trolls on a platform just a little above me and I think...this calls for a dance off!” she yelled and Wani froze in place as a large spotlight was directed at them.

“W-What?!” she said, panic rising in her.

“How does that sound trolls?” Barb asked, her smile pearly white and the screams were even louder.

“Yeah! Let’s do this Branch!” Poppy said but was interrupted by Barb.

“How about...boys against girls?” Barb asked and the screams were deafening, “Looks like the crowd has made up their mind!”

“I...I don’t know if I can do this-” Wani said nervously.

“You’ll be great Wani! You’re a great dancer! C’mon I’m on your side!” Poppy said, mischief sparkling in her eyes.

“I mean...if you forfeit then we win by default...” Tresillo said, a lazy smile on his face and that was enough for Wani to grab Poppy by the hand.

“Poppy, we’re winning this! Now!” she said determinedly and Poppy swung them off the platform and down to the dance floor.

A circle was made for them to dance and Branch and Tresillo joined.

“Okay everyone! May the best dancers win!” Barb yelled and she began to play a medley of genres causing the crowd to go nuts.

Poppy and Wani started first, moving their bodies elegantly to a classical remix before Branch and Tresillo took over with an infectious pop song. Wani glared at Tresillo, her competitive spirit getting the better of her and proceeded to dance her heart out.

It was bringing back memories of when they had their first dance off all those months ago, when they needed Branch to find Queen Poppy to give Barb the pop string.

Tresillo only winked at her and she rolled her eyes. From where they were standing, Branch and Tresillo looked like they were going to win. She needed to think fast.

She grabbed Poppy’s hand and gave her a nod and the pink troll grinned before they did a cartwheel into a split as the beat ended and the crowd went wild.

“Wow...that was some crazy dancing but who’s the winner?” Barb asked and protests came from the crowd, “Okay looks like we need a tie breaker! Wani and Tresillo! You two will be the tie breaker!”

Wani got nervous all over again but she looked at the reggaeton troll and he gave her an encouraging nod before she took centre stage with Tresillo.

“You ready to lose?” he asked with a grin.

“In your dreams!” she scoffed but her jaw dropped when a reggaeton song started playing.

Báilame como si fuera la última vez

Y enséñame ese pasito que no sé

Un besito bien suavecito, bebé

Taki taki, taki taki, ¡rumba!

“Woah, how is this fair?! He’s a reggaeton troll!” she yelled but Tresillo just laughed.

“Just dance baby!” he said before busting into a series of fluid movements earning applause from the audience.

She joined in, earning screams of encouragement from Poppy and the k-pop trolls.

“Destroy him!” Baby Bun yelled in Korean and Wani couldn’t help but laugh.

“What’d she say?” Tresillo asked and she laughed more as she danced.

“It’s nothing!” she laughed and before she knew it the song had ended.

“Well that was quite a performance but let’s end this with one more song!” Barb yelled and the familiar notes of a song hit Wani’s ears.

She immediately started dancing, the song flowing through her and she heard the k-pop trolls behind her sing along to the lyrics.

You got me feeling like a psycho psycho

우릴 보고 말해 자꾸 자꾸

다시 안 볼 듯 싸우다가도

붙어 다니니 말야

이해가 안 간대

웃기지도 않대

맞아 Psycho psycho

서로 좋아 죽는 바보 바보

너 없인 어지럽고 슬퍼져

기운도 막 없어요

둘이 잘 만났대

Hey now we’ll be ok!

Wani danced her heart out and when she heard that it was a remix, she free-styled a few moves causing the crowd to go insane.

As she did a spin, she briefly made eye contact with Tresillo and-

He wasn’t dancing.

He was staring at her and has a small smile on his face as he watched.

She felt her heart squeeze as she finished the final move right in front of him, her hand on her hip as she whispered the last word.

“Psycho...”

The crowd burst into applause and Barb grinned as she raised the microphone to her mouth.

“Since Wani’s applause was louder, she has officially won the dance battle! Congrats!”

Poppy squealed and lifted the k-pop troll into a hug.

“Wani! That was incredible!” she said as she put her down.

“Yeah, great job.” Branch said sulkily and Poppy gave him a playful shove.

“Thanks but I can’t say anything because Tracy didn’t dance!” Wani said with a snort and the reggaeton troll rolled his eyes.

“I was stunned okay. It’s not my fault you’re an excellent dancer.”

“Thank you,” Wani said softly, a light blush dusting her cheeks.

Before they could say anything else, Barb played the first few chords of a rock song on her guitar and the dance floor immediately was swamped once more.

Wani managed to squeeze her way out of the dance floor after a few minutes and headed towards the juice bar, only to find Tresillo there already, holding two cups.

“I figured you’d need this after that dance battle,” he said as he handed her the cup and she smiled gratefully.

The music was loud and as the two of them sat down at the chill section, Wani was approached by trolls she had never met before, all introducing themselves.

"Hi! You are an amazing dancer!"

"Hey, you did great out there! You dance so fluidly!"

"Woah, can you teach us some of the dance moves?"

Tresillo watched her easily make friends and he grinned as she finished her juice. He gestured to her.

You want another one?

She nodded and he headed back to the juice bar.

When he got back, Wani seemed to have more trolls around her and when she saw him, she leapt off the beanbag.

“Thanks everyone for the great time but I think the sore loser needs some cheering up,” she teased and the group of trolls giggled at him.

He was about to object because he did not need cheering up when she grabbed his hand and walked up one of the hills.

“Look Miss Popular, I do not need cheering up-”

“I know. I just wanted to spend some time with you,” she shrugged and he looked at her in surprise.

“Wait but you are here to make more friends-”

“-And I think I have enough for one night,” she said with a smile, gesturing to the group of trolls that were hanging around her previously in the chill area.

“Oh...I guess you’re right. Looks like all you needed to do was win a dance battle to get your name out there,” he nodded and they sat down, overlooking the whole party.

“I mean I’ve forgotten half of their names but I’ll get there eventually. I already have lunch plans with Barb and Poppy on Tuesday, a house party invite from a country troll and got invited to a Mix Off from Prince C,” she said with a cheeky smile.

She sipped her juice and they collapsed into a comfortable silence.

“Thanks for tonight Tresillo. I really appreciate you going out of your way to make me feel like I belong here.”

“Aye, it’s no problem. Us subculture trolls need to stick together and get more people liking our music aight?” he said with a chuckle and she giggled.

“Definitely.”

“Can I ask you a question?”

“Go ahead.”

“What did the song you dance to mean? I mean I heard bits of English like ‘psycho’ and ‘we’ll be okay’ but I don’t know the meaning and I was wondering if you could explain.”

Wani set her cup down and looked down at the grass beneath them, her face getting warm.

“It’s a love song-” she said softly and his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

“-But you’re saying ‘you got me feeling like a psycho'...Isn’t that a bad thing?”

“Let me finish!” Wani said and bumped him on his shoulder.

She hummed for a minute and looked at the stars in the sky.

“The song talks about a relationship where two lovers, whose love is constantly being perceived as toxic and crazy by other individuals, admit that their love is special and strange; as though one minute they’re about to break each other and the next, they makeup. They say that they are beautiful and sad, like the moon and river. That they feel dizzy and sad without each other like all their energy has been sucked out of them. And because they are together, that they are also often seen as psychos to those individuals.”

“Okay I didn’t know k-pop could get that deep,” Tresillo said, holding his hand to his heart and she laughed.

“Yeah, you’re missing out! But to be fair there is a song called Zimalabim and...let’s just say it became a bit of a meme in the k-pop community,” she said as she demonstrated the dance and song.

“What does Zimzalabim even mean?”

“Theories range from Zim, Zala and Bim being three trickster demons to those words being used as magical words like Abracadabra. In all honestly, I’m not even sure anymore.”

“Okay now that’s weird!”

“You can’t judge because what does ‘Taki Taki’ even mean?” she enquired with a raised eyebrow.

“Uh...it doesn’t really mean anything-”

“Ha!”

“But there’s been hints to uh...explicit things?” he struggled, blushing.

Wani stared at him before laughing and soon they were laughing together at their genres. They settled into a silence again and Wani felt her heart begin to beat a little faster. Hickory’s words were echoing through her mind.

If you don’t shoot your shot...you might miss him.

“Tresillo...I need to tell you something,” she said and he turned t look at her.

“Wow, no nickname? Must be serious,” he teased and she shushed him, her heart pounding.

“I...I was really nervous about tonight. I knew that the party was happening but I wasn’t planning to go until you asked me. I can’t thank you enough for making me come with you,” she said quickly, cursing that she completely avoided the real thing she wanted to tell him.

“It’s no problem. I wanted you to be happy and now you’re the life of the party,” he chuckled.

“Yeah it’s just...” she sighed and turned her whole body so that she was facing him directly.

“Look this might be a big mistake but...I think I like you. Like more than a friend but I’m terrified of messing up what we have now. And I don’t know if I like you because I actually really do like you or if it’s because you’re just nice to me.”

He looked at her, surprise written on his face before asking, “Is that why you choked on your juice earlier?”

“What? No! Yes! Maybe! You said it was Blue Crush flavour and I’m blue and I thought you were giving my subliminal messages!” she yelled, her face going bright red and he laughed.

“Okay...well if I told you I liked you too...what would you say to that?” he asked, his voice low and sending shivers down her spine.

“I...I would be really happy and relieved that you feel the same way but...I need you to know that I’ll probably set boundaries. I don’t want to seem like I’m leading you on but I need those boundaries.”

Her heart was thudding in her chest. This was what scared her the most.

“Boundaries? Like what?”

“Like...you’re going to have to be super patient with me on PDA and I’m not ready for a lot of relationship things...I guess I just wanted to ‘shoot my shot’ with you so that no other troll go you before I had a chance.”

He was quiet.

“So...you’re saying that you’re confessing you like me now because you thought that some other troll would catch my eye?”

“I mean...you have trolls grabbing you left and right! I saw those rock and country trolls at the juice bar getting close with you! And you’re attractive, a great dancer and your Spanish is so lovely to listen to and-” Wani stopped herself when she saw him smirking at her.

“You repeat this to anyone and you’re dead,” she threatened but he just chuckled.

“Wani, I’ve only had eyes for you for a long time. Sure other trolls and nice but you...you are...something else entirely. An ethereal something else and if those boundaries make you feel more comfortable...then I’m willing to do that for as long as it takes.”

“Even if it takes me a year to kiss you?”

“Wait, I seriously have to wait that long?” he asked, horror on his face before taking a deep breath, “Okay, okay I guess I can try-”

“-Nah, I’m just kidding about that,” she giggled, threading her hand through his and planted a kiss on his now intertwined hand, “But I might be really nervous at first so just...wait for me okay?”

“Okay,” he said lightly kissed her cheek, “Can I put my arm around you?”

Wani gave him a smile so bright, he thought he’s seen the sun and she cuddled up next to him.

The two watched the party from the hill and when Poppy called for a slow song to play, Wani stood up and offered her hand.

“I...I thought you wanted to take thing slow? You want us to slow dance in front of everyone?”

“I was thinking slow dancing right here.”

He took her hand and she pulled him close as the familiar notes of a love song echoed around them.

I found myself dreaming

In silver and gold

Like a scene from a movie

That every broken heart knows

“This must’ve been hard for you. Admitting you like someone is scary,” he murmured.

“It was at first but I knew it would hurt me more if I didn’t say anything and...”

“And what?”

“You’re worth it Tracy,” she giggled and for a minute, he thought his heart was going to burst.

“I...I don’t know if I would’ve had that much confidence,” he admitted.

“Really? But you’re one of the smoothest trolls I know.”

“Being smooth around people is one thing but being smooth and brave enough to admit that I care about someone...that’s different.”

“Hmmm I’d like to think you would’ve done something if another troll tried to shoot their shot with me,” Wani said confidently.

“You think so?”

“I know so.”

I’m gonna love you

Like I’m gonna lose you

I’m gonna hold you

Like I’m saying goodbye

“So what do your friends think of this? Did you tell them about this plan before?”

“They knew I liked you but-”

“Ha! I told you they were going to end up together before the end of the evening! Branch owes me big time!”

Ari’s voice shattered the atmosphere and Wani turned to see the k-pop trolls grinning at her a few metres away.

“You made a bet?” she yelled and they burst into a fit of giggles.

“Enjoy your evening Wani! We’ll talk when we get home!” Kim-Petit yelled as they ran away.

“Those little demons,” the k-pop troll huffed and Tresillo grinned.

“They just love you. Now are you going to dance with me or keep complaining about your friends?”

He let out a yelp when she dipped him and gazed into his eyes.

“Dance with you obviously.”

And they danced for the rest of the evening, their laughter filling the space and their feelings no longer a secret.

It felt great to have set boundaries with Tresillo and he respected it which made it even better.

He didn’t complain when they didn’t hold hands walking back to her house and when it was time to say goodnight, he was expecting a hug.

He never expected a kiss on the cheek from her and he melted immediately when she kissed him.

“You are going to have to warn me when you do that,” he whispered, breathless.

“Sorry, guess it is me calling the boundaries right?”

“No, I meant when you kiss me because I was not ready for that. The boundaries are not a problem,” he said.

Wani sighed happily and hugged him.

“You are absolutely wonderful. Thank you Tresillo. Goodnight.”

“Goodnight Wani. I’ll see you soon.”

She gave him one last kiss on the cheek before opening the door before she was tackled by her friends.

“Wani! How was your date?” Gomdori asked

“Yeah you gotta tell us everything!” Ari squealed.

“Guys slow down I just got back!” Wani yelled.

“Wait did he walk you home? That’s so sweet!”  Kim-petit gushed.

“Uh...I’m right here...” he said with an awkward smile and they registered that he had just witnessed them tackle Wani to the floor.

“Oh hey, Tresillo,” Baby Bun said, getting up off the floor and offering her hand out.

He looked confused as he shook it and Baby Bun nodded.

“As the eldest of our group, I’m warning you that if you hurt Wani in any way, we will destroy you.”

The blue k-pop troll's jaw dropped and before she could protest Tresillo spoke.

“She means a lot to me. I never want to hurt her and I will do my best to make her feel cared for. If I hurt her in any way, feel free to know some sense into me.”

Baby Bun seemed satisfied by his answer and gave him a rare smile before walking inside.

“Goodnight everyone. I’m going to sleep!” she announced and one by one the other girls said their goodbyes and walked inside.

“You handled that really well,” Wani said impressed, "Baby Bun is usually overprotective but you seemed to pass the test."

“What can I say? I’m the smoothest troll you know,” he winked and she shoved him playfully.

“Goodnight. Sweet dreams,” she said as she closed the door.

“Goodnight.”

As he walked away, he could hear the k-pop trolls ambush her again as she entered the house with screams and squeals and he smiled.

I think we’re going to work out just fine Wani.

He hummed the last few verses of Psycho before looking back at the house one more time.

We'll be okay.

Broppy

When I started shipping it if I did:

The minute I heard Branch say "...And that's why I love you".

My thoughts:

They play off each other so well! They've got that classic fire-and-ice tug of war going on, like where they're always trying to one-up each other in TBGO or arguing like an old married couple at the tunnels in the first movie.

What makes me happy about them:

They really do care about each other, and neither can bear to see the other unhappy.

What makes me sad about them:

They both have a bit of work to do in regards to meeting each other's expectations. Branch has done a pretty good job so far of showing Poppy where she went wrong while still being supportive, but there are times where he takes the support a little too far. On Poppy's end, she really just needs to listen a little better and practice what she preaches (putting herself in someone else's shoes, for example). I do think they'll be able to overcome these challenges in time, though.

Things done in fanfic that annoys me:

I find it mildly annoying that Branch is seen in so many fics (and sometimes even in the show) as completely inexperienced and clumsy when it comes to romance and social activities. While I don't doubt he had a crush on Poppy before the events of the first film, I don't think being grey would have affected his hormones or his appetite, so I like to think he did attend social functions in a non-disastrous way, and had dating experience before Poppy. Plus, he's older than her, so an 18-year-old Branch crushing on a teenage Poppy is...um...blecch.

Things I look for in fanfic:

I love to see them working as a team, and syncing perfectly in whatever they're doing.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: 

I do like the idea of Poppy x Barb, because I feel like they could learn a lot from each other while still being able to share the challenges of being Queen. I think Branch and Hickory would enjoy swapping notes on stealth, crafting, and man stuff.

My happily ever after for them:

Realizing that loving yourself is just as important as loving your significant other. Singing and dancing when the mood strikes them. Arguing and then making up with lots of hugs and kisses.

Who is the big spoon/little spoon:

They take turns.

What is their favorite non-sexual activity:

Scrapbooking and picnics. Sometimes both at once.

~*~*~*~*~*~

It was a beautiful spring day, the kind that was bright and sunny but still had a bit of nippiness to the breeze. It was the kind of day where picnics could be taken outside, fresh gardens could be planted or kids could be found running around the park. It was just the kind of day that put one Poppy Meadows in a great mood as she trotted across the campus of Trollington Community College besides her best friend, Branch Hawthorn. The two had known each other since they were small, their parents being friends with one another, and had been nigh inseparable for years. There had been a brief moment of time where Branch had tried to push everyone in his life away after the loss of his beloved grandmother but Poppy had continued to do whatever she could to show she wasn't going to leave him alone. It took a while but they had finally made up and were slowly becoming close again. It had been extremely comforting to have Branch back where he belonged in her life, especially after her recent disastrous break-up with her now ex-boyfriend, Creek Ophir.

While she much appreciated all the love and support from her friend group, the Snack Pack, had given her, Poppy had also really liked being able to have Branch around to hug as well. He made her feel safe and warm when she had felt so heartbroken. She had never once thought Creek, someone who had been such a good friend throughout the years and such a sweet boyfriend, could have said all those mean things to her. All while in the arms of some other woman at that. It still boggled Poppy's mind, that he had somehow become that mean sort of person, without anyone noticing and it made her sad to know and see that the sweet new kid she knew was gone.

Sighing as she thought of all the good times she and her friends has all shared with Creek, the pinkette didn't notice Branch reaching an arm around her before she was tugged against him in a one armed hug. “Stop thinking about him, Poppy. He doesn't deserve your thoughts on him. He's a jerk, remember?” Branch growled as he gently squeezed her shoulder.

The dark haired man felt her sigh against him before nodding and wrapping her arms around him. Branch rubbed his thumb in soothing circles as he let her hug him for as long as she needed to, even if he was uncomfortable with it happening where people could see them. But he'd deal with that if it meant Poppy would cheer up. There was nothing he hated more than to see Poppy sad and he had known when she had started thinking about Creep again as her paced slowed and her shoulders dropped. And when she had sighed softly with a frown he knew he had to reach out and hug her, else she spend the rest of their time moping. He also wasn't about to let her waste anymore thoughts on the so called 'guru'. Branch may be a paranoid grump who had pushed Poppy away when they were kids but he would have never hurt her the way Creek had.

In fact if he could, he'd go back in time and stop himself from ever pushing away this beautiful, bright, caring woman out his life. Even if she never really got the hint and stayed away. But he also knew at the time he had been young and scared and hurt after his grandmother's accident and couldn't stand being around the perky, happy Poppy with all her friends. Never-mind that he had also discovered he had been slowly growing a crush on the pink haired girl and that had freaked him out. And try as he might, he couldn't stop liking her, in fact he still did and it was so much more than that. Branch was one hundred percent, head over heels in love with Poppy and she still had no idea. She was just wonderful and sweet, kind to a fault, absolutely gorgeous, loved everyone and thing with her whole being and-Yes, she was completely crazy and liked parties and sweets and singing in public all too much but she still wanted to be friends with a no good, worthless guy such as himself. Even after all the mean things and destroyed invitations he had done. But he wasn't going to tell her any of that anytime soon, not only because he knew she wouldn't return his feelings, but because right now she just needed friends by her side and he'd be just that.

Poppy sighed, voice muffled by his shirt, “I know...” She pulled away enough to look up at Branch, amber eyes wet with unshed tears, “It just...It still hurts, you know?” She hadn't just lost a boyfriend two weeks ago, she had also lost a close friend and it was proving to be more difficult to follow her own motto of 'Get back up again' then she thought, “Even we didn't work out as a couple I always thought we'd still be friends...”

Branch frowned, hating to see his usually perky best friend so downtrodden and it made his hatred for Creek rise again, “Mm-hmm.... My offer to punch him is still open.” He'd been wanting an excuse to take Mr. High and Mighty down a few pegs for years now anyway. And that wasn't just the jealousy talking either, Creek had always acted like he was superior to everyone, especially Branch, and it was time he got what was coming to him.

Poppy shook her head though at his offer, “Please don't. I don't want you to get in trouble and...he may have broken my heart but I don't want to see anyone hurt.” She had always thought that no matter who a person was they didn't deserve to get hurt, even if might be for a good reason. Violence never solved anything.

“Fiiine,” Branch groaned before he flashed a small smirk at her and playfully swatted her away, “Alright, alright, alright! Your hug quota's been filled! Off, off, off!” Branch let a smile filter across his face as Poppy giggled, hearing her musical laughter was much better than seeing her mope, and he was glad he managed to wring some of it out. “Come on,” He grabbed her wrist and started gently tugging her along, “Let's go get you some ice cream.”

“Really?!” Poppy gasped, a real smile starting to appear, “You're gonna get me ice cream?”

Branch scoffed, trying to play his offer as something he normally did, “Only because I can't stand to see you all mopey.”

“Rude~” Poppy giggled, knowing that was his way of saying he cared. Skipping closer, quickly hugged his arm, “Thank you.”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now get off, people might stare!” He gently bumped her away, face set in a scowl but his light blue eyes shining with playfulness. He was glad he had manged to stop her from thinking about that jerk again. Poppy had already cried too many undeserved tears for Creek.

Excited for the upcoming treat, Poppy started sharing her plans for the weekend. She and the Pack had been thinking about going to the club for a night of dancing with possibly ending it with a sleepover at one of their places. And even though she knew that wasn't really Branch's scene, Poppy made sure to tell him he was more than welcome to join them. The pinkette was still holding out hope that one day her paranoid grump of a best friend would feel comfortable enough to come have fun with them now that he was reconnecting with her. Even if he did love to tell them how crazy they were for enjoying the bright flashing lights and loud music a club had to offer. Skipping ahead with a giggle, Poppy rounded the corner as Branch stopped to tie his shoe and she froze at the sight of who was coming from the opposite way.

It was none other than Creek! Alongside the woman he had dumped Poppy for. Poppy felt her insides clench with nerves at the sight of them, the unexpectedness making her panic. She hadn't really seen him since their breakup, it was too painful, and she was not ready to face him right now either! She had parted amicably with the few boys she had tried dating in the past so she had never thought she'd experience this feeling of wanting to hide from an ex before. But now she was and all she could think about was finding a spot to wait until they passed by without having to talk to Creek. She really didn't want to listen to anymore of his mean words.

Turning around and fleeing back around the corner quickly, hopefully they hadn't seen her, the pinkette looked around for a decent hiding place. Except there wasn't any! There were no trash cans, large enough bushes or trees around to hide behind. It was all flowerbeds and small, neatly trimmed shrubs. And Branch, who was looking at her with worry. And then an idea hit her, one she'd seen in a cartoon once and would hopefully work.

Quickly pushing Branch against the side of the building before he could ask what was wrong, Poppy whispered frantically, “Quick! Fake-out make-out!”

“What?!” Branch questioned, wondering if he heard her right. She wanted to do what?! Before he could question her more she was talking quickly, a panicked look in her eyes and actions.

“Creek's around the corner and I really, really don't want to talk to him! Just do this! Please!” She said quickly as she bounced in distress. Then before Branch could even formulate an answer to his crazy best friend's plight, she kissed him.

Branch froze. He was completely still, ramrod straight, eyes blown wide and unseeing, the only thing firing in his brain was that Poppy was kissing him. Poppy was kissing him. Him. She was kissing him. Poppy Meadows was kissing him!!! His best friend since childhood. The wonderful, beautiful, sweet and caring girl who was friendly to everyone and loved to party with a passion. The downright gorgeous woman he'd been in love with for more than half his life was kissing him!! And all he could do was repeat that in his mind, over and over again as her soft, gloss covered lips moved against his.

A set of different thoughts were going through Poppy's mind, most of which was how this wouldn't fool Creek at all if Branch didn't at least appear to be kissing her back. She knew this was probably shocking for him and she had kind of put him on the spot but she didn't have any other choice! Determined to make it up to him later if only he'd do this for her, she pulled back and hissed, “Kiss back!”, before placing her mouth over his once more.

Branch jolted, he shouldn't-they shouldn't be doing this! It wasn't...it really wasn't right!! Yes, he was in love her but she didn't know that! Nor did she return his feelings. This was not something appropriate for friends to do! And it certainly wasn't a very smart way to get out of talking to your ex, even if that ex was Creek. But...If she was so determined to do this...he might as well take advantage of the only shot he'd ever have of kissing her. Even if he'd hate himself for it later as he constantly replayed it in his head. So he slowly wrapped his arms around her, one around her waist and the other cradling her head carefully before tilting his head just a little and really kissing her back. He tugged her just a little closer, leaning back against the wall as he let his lips glide over hers, fingers tangling in her bubblegum pink hair and getting lost in the feeling of finally having Poppy Meadows in his arms.

Poppy gasped as Branch began to kiss her back, like really kiss her back, before she found herself sinking into it. Sliding her arms around his neck, she pressed herself closer to his solid chest as she lost herself in their kiss, enjoying the way his fingers tugged at her hair and he held her close. He held her like she was precious to him and Poppy couldn't help but open her mouth and letting her tongue dart out to taste his surprisingly soft lips. She felt him tug her even closer, groaning low in his throat and the noise shot a sudden desire to hear more through her before she remembered this was fake, a way to get out of talking to Creek. Believing, hoping, it had been long enough, Poppy pulled away slowly, unable to stop herself from tugging gently at Branch's lower lip as she did so before their mouths parted. The pinkette also couldn't help but giggle softly at the dazed look on his face before looking around. She saw Creek walking away from them and breathed a sigh relief, at least he hadn't stopped to say something mean.

Looking back at Branch, who was still blinking slowly with slightly parted lips, Poppy could help but giggle again, “Thanks....and uh...sorry? I...could have that through better, huh?”

“Huh?” Was Branch's response before he blinked himself back into awareness, lips still tingling and tasting like her strawberry lip-gloss, “Oh...yeah...You should have.” He probably should have said something different, though there hadn't been any bite to his usual reprimand as his mind was still replaying the fact that he had kissed Poppy!

Poppy bit her lip, glancing off to the side guiltily knowing she had sort of forced that on him and he was most likely more upset with her than he was letting on. But she also felt a small bit of relive because he hadn't stopped her and forced her to have an awkward interaction with Creek. Smiling shyly at him, Poppy thanked him again, “Thanks again and...yeah...” She ducked her head, trying to figure out a good way to change the subject when Branch didn't seemed to be able to. But how did one go about that after forcing a fake make-out with ones best friend? Well Poppy didn't know but she was never one to back down, “So....How about that ice cream, huh?!”

Branch huffed out a chuckle, trust Poppy to be thinking about sweets after just forcing him to kiss her, and gently pushed her away, “Yeah..Sure. Let's go.” He grabbed her hand and tugged her back onto the path, returning to their task of getting off of campus. He took a deep breath and forced himself to just think about getting her the promise treat. Then...then he could go home and have a full on melt-down on how he shouldn't have kissed her back and how he'd never get to experience the feeling of her in his arms again.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Later, after going to the ice cream parlor, Branch and Poppy were walking through the park as Poppy finished off her triple berry scoop cone. Branch had already finished his cup of double chocolate brownie and was now merely biding his time until he could make a polite exit. He was quickly reaching his limit on how much longer he could act like everything was normal after what had happened but it was getting harder and harder to focus on anything but the way Poppy's mouth moved as she spoke. He was actually trying not to hurt her feelings anymore, on purpose anyway, but how could he not run away home to freak out now knowing the way those plump lips felt and tasted? At least she seemed content right now, eating her ice cream but boy was it hard not to watch her do that too with the way that tongue of hers poked in and out as she licked away at the sweet treat. Branch wondered exactly how she would taste now with the lingering flavor on her lips and in her mouth, how exactly those flavors may meld with what he'd had, how she would have felt pressed up against a tree as he ravaged her mouth-? Branch willed the blush threatening to overcome his face down, at least until he could get away from the object of his unrequited affections. Then...then he could freak out in private and not have to worry about looking like an idiot.

Meanwhile Poppy was oblivious to the thoughts rampaging through her best friends head as she nibbled her sugar cone, thinking about finishing off that scrapbook page she was working on last night. Maybe she'd add some more borders with those cute new stickers? And possibly a touch more glitter, could never go wrong with that! Ooooh! Then maybe she'd call up the Pack and see if they wanted to have a sleepover?! She was fairly certain they all had the night free, then they could hang out all day tomorrow before getting ready for the club! Oooh~! That'd be so fun! Glancing over at Branch, she wondered if she might be able to convince him to come with them. For even just an hour! Opening, her mouth to try and do so, maybe offer some thing he may want in return, her phone began to buzz with incoming text messages. Well, hey! Think of the Pack and there they are!

Digging her phone out of her pocket, the pinkette opened her group chat to find a blur of messages coming in. Eyes going wide in surprise and confusion, she scrolling upwards to the start of the messages, curious what had gotten her friends in a tizzy.

'Is this serious?!'

'Please tell us it's a joke!'

'Why didn't you tell us?'

'It was photo-shopped, right?'

'Girl, you got some s'plaining to do~'

'Was it a dare? Was it worth it~?'

'Poppy! Answer us!'

'Poppy!'

'PoPpY!'

'POOOOOPPPPPYYYY!!!!'

Pursing her lips, she texted back quickly asking them what they were talking about as Branch watch on with concern. 'We're talking about this!' Chenille sent before a picture followed, one that had Poppy freezing in place because she never thought she'd see something this. It was her and Branch as the kissed! It clearly showed Branch holding her tightly as they leaned back against the school building, her arms wrapped tightly around him and with one foot popped off the ground. Poppy stared at the picture before shakily asking her friends where they got that picture. And the answer didn't make her feel any better. It had been Creek! He had-he had taken a picture of them and decided to send it to all her friends for whatever reason, probably to embarrass Branch and herself or just because he wanted to cause havoc. Either way, now she'd have to tell her friends it was a fake-out make-out, which wasn't even the problem really! She just...felt bad enough having put Branch through that! Now there was a picture and their friends knew it had happened.

“Poppy?” Branch asked, concerned when she went to answer her friends title wave of messages confusion swimming in her eyes before her skin paled and her eyes widened. “Is everything okay?” He didn't what sort of answer would be worse. Had something happened to her dad? Was someone in the hospital? Had her house burned down?! Or flooded?! Or both?! Had someone revealed a secret about her no-one else did that she didn't want anyone to know and now she had to rethink everything she ever knew about that friend?! He was about to demand that she not accept without at least getting to know the guy first when she spoke up.

“Um...” Poppy gulped before speaking in a small voice, “It..It's Creek...He-He took a picture of us  and...sent to the Pack.” She winced as Branch cried “What?!?” And then he was beside her, looking at her phone and the picture she stared at with a horrified expression.

Branch couldn't believe it, well...okay he sort of could because Creek was that kind of jerk to do this but still! He couldn't believe that bastard had taken a picture of himself and Poppy and then sent it to her friends!! What the hell was he trying to do? Besides embarrass Branch to death of course. The dark haired young man felt his poorly held together composure crack down, still staring at the picture of him kissing Poppy, now knowing what they had looked like to go with her memories of how soft she had been in his arms. Face now turning beat red, he let out a hoarse squeak, “Right! You, uh....you take care of...that and I'll just...be..going...now...” And then without a backwards glance, Branch quickly walked away, main only focused on getting home quickly where he could freak out in private.

Poppy watched him practically run away with a heavy and guilty heart, feeling worse now for making him make-out with her all because she didn't want to face her ex-boyfriend. Sighing, the pinkette turned back to her phone and began the process of explaining that what had happened, already trying to think up a way to make it up to Branch. She hoped this wouldn't be too big of a set back for them, she didn't know what she'd do if she lost her best friend again.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Three days.

It had been three days since the Fake-out Make-out. Three days since Creek had taken a picture of it and sent it to her friends. Three days since she last heard anything from Branch, who was most likely avoiding her again. And three days since she couldn't stop staring at the picture of them kissing. Poppy flopped over to her back on her bed, holding her phone aloft as she stared at the offending photo for the millionth time. Okay...it really wasn't offending but still... She couldn't stop looking at her and Branch kissing, sort of making out really, and how he held her close and how her foot was popped in the air like in the Princess Diaries. And looking at it made her remember it! She remembered the feel of Branch's lips, soft and a little chapped. She remembered the way his arms had held her gently but also like he never wanted to let her go and the warmth they held. She remembered his little groan that shot a white hot desire through her to just...to just keep kissing him and to see how far they could go as she invited his tongue to dance with hers.

Poppy groaned and buried her face in her hands, letting her phone drop beside her as she rolled on her comforter. Why?! Why couldn't she stop staring at that picture? Why did she just...just want to recreate it with Branch?! Why did she keep thinking about Branch like this?! He was one of her best friends! That was all!! Whining to herself, she grabbed her phone and dialed one of those other best friends, letting out a long whine when the line was picked up, “Suuuuukiiiii!!!! I donno what to dooo!!!!”

The DJ's laughter flowed over the speaker like a soothing waterfall, “Hello to you too, Popstar.” Poppy pouted even though her friend couldn't see her, it wasn't like she had never forgone greetings before. Suki's voice cut through however before she could respond, “Oh, stop your pouting. You know I'm teasing. Now what's up?”

The pinkette groaned and covered her eyes with one arm, mind returning to her predicament, “I can't stop staring at that you-know-what picture! And I don't know whhyyyy!!! It was taken without us knowing and then sent to you guys! And Branch hasn't talked to me in three days and I still feel kind of bad about making him kiss me! But instead of deleting it and trying to move past it like I always do, I just-I keep staring at it!” She let out a long, drawn out moan, rolling back and forth, “Suuukiii!!! I dooonnoooo what to doooo!!! Why?! Why do I keep staring at it?!?!”

Suki laughed again causing more groans to escape her distressed friend, “Popstar, calm down. It's alright. I know Creep took the picture but it's not completely horrible. I mean, I know you told us it was fake but...it looked pretty real to me. Your foot was popped and everything. Never seen it do that before. Must have a been a pretty good kiss.”

“Well...” Poppy stuttered, she hadn't exactly told the Pack everything just that she had panicked a little seeing Creek and had done the first thing that came to mind, which had been to fake make-out with Branch. What she hadn't told them was...how much she actually liked it. Whining, she covered her face with a pillow, “Okay! Yes! It was a good kiss! A really, really, really good kiss and it was Branch who kissed me like that and I donno how to feel!!!! Help meeee!!”

“Deep breaths, Popstar. Deep breaths,” Suki said, calmly through the phone, waiting for her friend to calm down, “Now to get things straight. Are you freaking out because you liked the kiss? Or because Branch was the one to kiss you like that?”

“Not fair, Suki,” The pinkette pouted before falling silent, “...I guess...Maybe a little of both? I mean, come on! This is Branch we're talking about! He's...well...He's Branch! I may love him but he can be so frustrating at times and I never expected in a million years to be kissed by him like I was!”

“You love him?”

Poppy gave a little mix of a sigh and groan as she sat up, “Well yeah! He's one of my best friends! You know that! He may be a grump and paranoid and sarcastic but he's also got a golden heart under all those thorns! He can be sweet and caring and he's always been there for me, even when he tried not to be and-” Oh. Poppy's hazel eyes widened as she thought about it. He had almost always been there for her, even when he claimed he didn't want to be her friend anymore! He always helped out, went along with her crazy plans, comforted her when things went wrong -albeit usually with a sarcastic quip- stood by her side through most anything and always looked out for her. He even offered to punch her ex-boyfriend for breaking her heart and went along with a half-baked idea of 'making out' with her so she would have to talk to him! Plus so many other tiny things over the years! Unintended sleepovers, movie nights half cuddled on a couch, breakfasts brought when he knew she'd skipped it, random soft looks she only managed to catch the tail ends of before he swapped them with his usual scowl... “Oh! Ooooooohhhhh!!!! Oh My God!!! Suukiiiiii!!!! I think-I think I'm in love with Branch!!!”

“Hahaha! About time!” The half-asian woman laughed over the phone.

“What do you mean 'about time'?!”

“Duuude,” Suki giggled, “It's clear to anyone who pays attention that you've had feelings for Branch for like...ever!” Poppy was too shocked to make more of reply than a little confused squeak so the DJ continued gently, “Poppy. Hey. It's okay.”

“But-!” Poppy squeaked out, “Why didn't you say anything?!”

Suki made a noise that sounded like she was shrugging, “You can be pretty oblivious to things, Popstar. And...you had your mind set on You-know-who. I wasn't about to make things confusing for you when you weren't ready to listen or even knew that part of your heart wanted someone else. Plus...it's not like any of us saw what Creep did coming. Had I well...then yeah, I would have said somethin'.”

“Right...” Poppy feel silent for a moment, trying to process everything that had come to light the last few minutes. Deciding some of it could wait, she shook her head, trying to focus on the most important thing right now. She was in love with her best friend and she needed to tell him! “Okay, so... Right! Some of that can wait! I-I need to Branch! Right? I should tell him because he deserves to know! But...Ooooh, but Suki!!! What if...what if we doesn't...?” She chocked, not wanting to think about if Branch didn't return her feelings and how she would then have made things even more awkward.

Suki thankfully nipped those thoughts quickly, “Poppy, Branch has been in love with you since...I donno since we were like kids! Believe me when I say he's not gonna reject you. He might try to deny it, might not believe you...He can be pretty stubborn but you just gotta convince him.”

Poppy nodded, biting her lip as she thought about it, “Right... But, ooooh, he's been avoiding me! Which, okay, I did sort of force him out of his comfort zone, again, and forced him to kiss me,” Which If he had feelings for her and believe she didn't return them -which to be fair she hadn't known yet- of course he'd be avoiding her. She had...forced a taste of something he probably thought he'd never get to have, hadn't she? Yeah, no, it made sense that he was avoiding her. But now she could fix it! If she could talk to him... “But he needs to know!”

Suki chuckled warmly, “Then I guess it's a good thing I ran into him not that long ago. He happened to mention he'd be studying all day at his apartment, so you know~ He's probably there~”

Poppy squealed, “Suki, you're the best!” Jumping off her bed, the young woman pumped her fist, “Okay! I'm...I'm gonna go tell Branch I love him!” Oh, it felt weird and so right to say that. Grinning, she rushed down the stairs to grab her purse and keys, “Wish me luck! Tell ya all about it later!”

“Better be tomorrow before I hear from you again!” Suki joked as Poppy hung up and rushed to find the grump who held her heart.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Branch groaned as he stared morosely at his texts books and school work spread out around him, unable to concentrate on any of it. It had been three days and he was still reeling from that...what did Poppy call it? That...Fake-out Make-out. He could still feel those impossibly soft lips against his own, feel her body fitting against his like a missing puzzle piece, feel her silky hair through his fingers and hear that damning little gasp that she'd made as he truly kissed her back. Scrubbing his hands through his hair, Branch groaned again, wishing he could just get Poppy out his mind! All weekend all he could think of was her and how she felt and wonder what she'd feel like under him and-Another groan and Branch let his head fall against his table. Suffice to say he hadn't gotten a lot of work done with thought of a beautiful bubblegum princess fluttering through them more than usual.

There had to be some way for him to not think about her for more than five minutes! He'd do anything to just be able to focus on something that wasn't Poppy Meadows and how badly he wanted her in his arms again! Maybe he could find a hypnotist...

Suddenly there was a knock at his door, interrupting his thoughts. He sighed roughly, it was probably his annoying neighbor who always complained about him when he was doing absolutely nothing. Getting up to tell the jerk off, again, it would at least be a temporary distraction from his torturous mind. Except, when he opened the door, it wasn't his neighbor, or even a salesman of some sort, it was the very person he was trying not to think about!

Poppy stood on the other side of his threshold with a sheepish smile and an adorably short dress. Branch's brain short circuited at the sight of her, their kiss still far too fresh in his mind and the reason he'd been trying to ignore her! He didn't-How was he suppose to act around her now?! He'd already had trouble before! And now...not it was worse and seeing her here just...he didn't know what to do!

“Uh....hi.” She said softly, shoulders scrunching up a little.

“Uuuhh...hi.” He replied, awkwardly.

“Can...can I come in?” Her hands were laced behind her back and she rocked on the balls of her feet as she waited for his answer. She wouldn't at all be surprised if he shut the door in her face. But she wouldn't let that stop her. She had to tell him!

“Um...Sure?” Branch said, nodding numbly and opening the door to let her in. His mind was still screaming, asking 'why was she here?!?!' and he really wasn't functioning at all as the pinkette of his dreams came into his apartment.

Poppy watched him close the door and lean back against it, wondering what could be going through his mind right now. Judging by the 'deer in headlights' look she was getting, she'd bet he was shocked at her arrival. And, oh, how much did she just want to smash her lips against his and leave him breathless and gasping?! Maybe even look at her all dazed like before, with lidded eyes and a little half smirk? Okay, whoa, calm down, Poppy. She told herself. She had to talk to him first and tell him she was in love with him first. And, if her realization talking to Suki hadn't been enough, she had thought about it all the way over and it was obvious she'd had deeper feelings for Branch for a..rather long time now.

She watched him watch her for few agonizing seconds, still trying to figure out where to start before he opened his mouth to say something. Realizing she wanted to speak first, Poppy quickly held a finger against his mouth, stopping him. “I-uh...I want to say something first! Please?”

Branch froze, stopped in his attempt to ask her why she was here as she placed one delicate finger on his mouth and tried not to think about how easy it would be to just...take it between his lips and lave it with his tongue. And, wow, okay, Branch, this was getting out of hand! Not that he hadn't already had fantasies about Poppy but still, she was right there and wanted to talk to him. Locking away those naughty thought, he nodded, blue eyes reflecting the worry he was starting to feel. She looked...nervous...which wasn't something she normal was. He hoped whatever she was about to say explained it and it wasn't anything bad.

Taking a deep, stabilizing breath, Poppy tried to still her racing heart as she opened her mouth to start her confession. Ooooh, why was this so much harder than when she had told Creek she liked him?! Maybe because it was Branch and...he did have a tendency to disbelieve her and to freak out about things and her feelings for him went a lot deeper than what she had ever felt for her ex. But, she was Poppy Meadows, and she wasn't going to let that fact stop her! Clearing her throat, the young, pink haired woman opened her mouth and just let it all spill out like she was prone to do, “So, I know you probably won't believe me, but please! Please, please, please listen to everything I have to say before you jump in and try to deny me!” She watched him blink, face screwing up with a worried frown before he nodded, “So, I-um...” Gah!! So hard! Come on, Poppy! Tell him! “So I kept staring at the picture. You know the one of us- Anyway! And like...I couldn't stop, I didn't know why and I kept thinking about...about how...” Deep breath, “How much I liked it. So! I called Suki and I talked to her and I realized some things and now I'm here to-to tell you those things and it's honestly kind of nerve wracking for some reason because even though Suki told me not to worry, I kind of am! Even though I don't worry about things, not really anyway...Point is! I'm trying to say...I'm trying to tell you, I...I love you, Branch. And not like 'as a friend' like...like I'm in love with you and was really, really stupid not to see it before!” She bit her lip again, rocking back and forth on her feet as she waited for him to say something to her confession.

Branch blinked at her, trying to make sense of the word vomit that had just spewed from her, “What?” Poppy was in love with him? She had liked kissing him? She was in love with him? He must have hit his head harder than he thought and this was all some elaborate hallucination brought on by that because there could be no way Poppy had gone from just seeing him as a friend to being in love with him so quickly. Just wasn't possible! Nope! Completely untrue! And he still couldn't comprehend that. “What?”

Poppy blew out a frustrated breath, knowing she should have seen this coming, before speaking calmly and clearly, “I am in love with you, Branch. I know...I know it's hard to believe, I'm still reeling knowing it, but I am! I love you! I love your grumpy frown, I love the way you scrunch up your face when you think I'm ridiculous but also funny so you're try not to laugh, I love your hugs, I always feel safe and warm in your arms. I...I love you, truly.”

“Huh?” Was about all that came from the dark haired man as he stared at her in disbelief. This...couldn't be real, could it? This wasn't really happening, was it? Branch really didn't know anymore because it could be a dream come true but...but he wasn't that lucky.

Poppy saw that it looked she would have to take drastic measures to see that he believed her. Approaching slowly, she gently laid her hands on his chest and looked up into his wide, icy blue eyes, “If you won't believe my words...maybe you'll believe this.” She then, for the second time in her life, laid her lips upon Branch's and kissed him.

Branch jolted like he'd been shocked because...because oh, her lips were still just as soft as a few days ago and they were-and she was- It was real. Okay, this was real and it was happening and Poppy was kissing him again. His arms automatically came around her as he kissed her back, mind still trying to catch up. Which was hard because he had Poppy in his arms again and she had just claimed to be in love with him and she was kissing him again. He tried to pull away, just enough to try and ask something, anything, but she stopped him by sealing her mouth over his again.

“Shh,” She mumbled, lips brushing against his as she spoke, “Talking can be a later thing. Promise.” Because now she was kissing him, and he was kissing back just as eagerly, she didn't want to stop. Pushing herself close, the pinkette brought him into for another kiss, one hand cupping his cheek as the other clutched at his shirt.

Branch groaned, still wanting answers, still trying to make sense that Poppy loved him as he loved her -which hopefully she realized as he returned her kissed- but she was right. Turning around and pushing her gently against the door, enjoying her little pleasured gasp before she slid her tongue inside his mouth and enticed his to dance, Branch agreed that talking could be a later thing. A much, much, much later thing.

-Bonus-

“I love you too, Sunshine.”

“Yay~!”
