Thinking about how much potential Guy Diamond's character has if he wasn't relegated to being a comedic relief side character esp post-World Tour. He's a chronic party animal living disco ball la vida loca and then suddenly he's a FATHER who has to take Tiny to school every morning like surely that transition was ROUGH. I feel like he hadn't really grasped the whole deal of raising a kid until literally a month later his baby boy is telling him he's a man now and doesn't wanna be coddled. Just Guy trying to learn how to be a good dad when parenthood was never even a thought present in his head until Tiny hatched and worrying that his little boy is gonna grow up too fast and his heart that was so full of love is suddenly gonna be empty bc he felt like he lost something he didn't realize he had, something he didn't think was so fleeting

Something I like abt Trollstopia Guy and Tiny Diamond is that Tiny just hangs out in Guy's hair and occasionally pops out to contribute 2 lines of dialogue and then fucks off back into daddy's mane. He is like a little dog in the purse of a fancy rich lady

Various instances of Guy Diamond being posed alongside Branch, Poppy and other lead characters in promos and merch as if he plays a significant role in the movies

Or; Guy being the third face of the franchise in marketing for whatever reason

Nerd ramblings below the cut :3<

I think that since Tiny's introduction to the franchise in World Tour (which is obviously a move solely to be able to sell merch of him), they have to include Guy too for whatever reason. It's like marrying your way into a rich family. Guy Diamond has significance by proxy of his son. Main character-in-law.

I desperately want to know what the process is like in the marketing and toy departments tho. Is it because at some point Guy was the main focus glitter troll in the series? Probably. Kids like shiny things. He also farts glitter, which is a great gimmick in the mind of a 40 year old man trying to be hip and cool with the youngins. The mascot costume being able to fart glitter might actually be the peak of human engineering. Why does the Guy Build-a-Bear get to be fully naked when Poppy and Branch had to put on shoes to cover their tootsie toes? Is it an all or nothing situation? Why was he put on World Tour stuff alongside Barb as if he contributed more to the story than give birth? I would've thought he AND Biggie were going along with Poppy and Branch. I get that metatextually, Tiny's introduction to the series is important but surely it didn't have to warrant the inclusion of his full render did it?

I don't know. I don't know and it makes me insane. Guy Diamond you weird fucking enigma you 🧎🏽

Familiar Stranger 💜🪩

Glitter's hard to get rid of, especially once it sticks to something.

-

Fanfic about Guy Diamond and this random no name background troll he interacted with for a nett total of like 8 seconds. His name is Tyler now.

Guy might be a bit OOC I don't even know anymore man my view of him has probably been warped beyond recognition

~

It was another party night in Troll Village. Nothing paticularly special was being celebrated, but trolls never needed a reason to party.

Their small part of the forest was alive with lights, music and glitter. Sweet acoustics reverberated throughout the village square. A troupe of glitter trolls hung by their hair above them all, the light from colourful strobebugs reflecting off of their sparkly skin and creating a glamorous light show for the partygoers below them.

Guy Diamond was not apart of said troupe this time. Instead, he danced amongst the crowd of trolls on the ground. He moved his body to the beat as if it was the only thing he knew how to do; energetic, passionate, dynamic, beautiful.

The silver glitter troll didn't have a specific partner to dance with, he never did, but everyone who knew him knew that he was open to dancing with anyone. Different trolls would get close to him as they grooved at different times and Guy, always a sucker for attention, matched their rhythm and moved along with them until they eventually drifted off.

Everyone got to dance with Guy Diamond, and Guy Diamond got to dance with everyone.

The glitter troll was moving his body to the beat when he felt another troll brush up against him. This troll, however, felt different from all the other trolls Guy had danced with that night. A thrill ran up his spine. He could never put it into words, but Guy knew. He would always know that strange, special feeling.

Turning to face his latest dance partner, Guy's eyes lit up at the sight of a yellow troll with purple hair wearing a pair of dark lavender pants. The wishstone in his belly shone under the party lights.

Tyler met his gaze and suddenly it was as if they were the only trolls dancing. The air about them felt charged as they danced close to each other, closer than any other troll both of them had danced with that night. Or any other night for that matter. They were so close to each other that the very ends of their hair would occassionaly brush together. It was intense. It was thrilling. It was electrifying.

They danced together for a while, so long in fact that the two trolls felt the slightest bit tired and just a little parched. Tyler felt a hip bump against him. He paused in his groove for a moment as he felt a hand in his own, it's glittery texture warm and familiar. Guy Diamond pulled him from the crowd of dancing trolls to a nearby juice bar. They sat on the mushroom seats as a juice maker troll served them their drinks.

They sat in comfortable silence as the party raved on around them. Tyler turned to look at Guy, admiring the way the other troll looked. Every once in a while a beam of light from up above washed over them, briefly illuminating the glitter troll as it caught on him and made his skin sparkle enchantingly.

"So," Tyler started casually. "Where ya from?"

Guy put his head in one hand as the other held his cup of cloudberry juice, eyes half lidded as he leaned towards the yellow troll slightly. "Haven't we met before?"

What a funny question. A loaded one, too. They've met plenty of times before. Tyler knew this. Guy Diamond knew this.

It was all apart of their strange little game. A game only they knew how to play.

"I think I would've remembered a face like yours," Tyler smirked, turning away to bring his cup of dewberry juice to his lips. He took a long, slow sip before setting the drink down and licking his lips.

Guy's eyes glinted as he watched, eyebrows hiking up the slightest bit as he tilted his head into his hand slightly.

"Never even heard of me?" Guy questioned innocently.

"Not a peep."

Everyone's heard of Guy Diamond. There wasn't a troll in the village who didn't at least know his name. Guy made sure of it, vain as he was.

"You're adorable," Guy laughed before leaning over, placing a hand on the yellow troll's knee to support himself as he planted a kiss on Tyler's cheek. "We should sing together sometime."

And with that, the glitter troll got up and made his way to throw himself back onto the dance floor. Tyler watched him go with wide eyes and a red face, staring as Guy dissappeared into the crowd of partygoers until he could barely see the tips of his sparkly white hair. He felt a smile growing, could feel how goofy he must have looked right then.

Tyler didn't realize how long he had been sitting at the juice bar until the juice maker troll from earlier snapped her fingers in his face. Startled out of his trance, Tyler turned to face her.

"Hey, you've got a little..." she trailed off, gesturing at her own cheek before pointing at him somewhat vaguely.

The yellow troll stared at her for a moment, not understanding what she was getting at. "Huh?"

The juice maker made a face as the moment grew awkward. Her eyes glanced around briefly before settling on the empty cup of cloudberry juice Guy Diamond had left behind. She grabbed it and held it up to Tyler's face.

As his slightly warped reflection stared dumbly back at him from the surface of the glass cup, Tyler realized what she had been referring to. On the cheek where Guy had kissed was a smear of glitter. It clung onto his fuzzy skin, having not yet dissolved into the air as most organic glitter cells did. It was rather faint, a small smudge of silver fractals against his yellow flocked fur, but it sparkled just as bright as the one who left it there when the light hit it just right.

"Oh!" the yellow troll laughed, bringing a hand up to his cheek to touch at the smear. It came back slightly sparkly. He turned back towards the crowd of trolls dancing, only needing to glance around for a moment before his eyes, almost naturally, found an all too familiar sparkle of glitter.

Guy Diamond danced, the lights of the party reflecting off of his glitter in mesmerizing patterns as he moved about. He danced as if it was the only thing he knew how to do; energetic, passionate, dynamic, beautiful.

The silver troll found his gaze and they briefly locked eyes from across the village square. Guy smiled and winked at him.

Tyler slammed down the last drops of his juice before excitedly running back into the crowd. He couldn't wait to get to know this mysterious, familiar troll.

[After the events of Band Together]

Guy Diamond: TINY FITZGERALD DIAMOND THERE YOU ARE WHERE HAVE YOU B E E N

Tiny Diamond: Daddy can I have a sibling

Guy: ⁉️

#dreamworks trolls #trolls band together #guy diamond #tiny diamond #castortxt #bb wants a long lost sibling #i am aware that apparently somehow smidge is tiny's sister #but i think thats just a throwaway line n it has no real implications #if anything smidge is tinys cool wine aunt

[castorfell]

I think it's a bit of a missed oppurtunity that we didn't get a scene of Tiny Diamond reuniting with Guy Diamond at the end of the movie I feel like it'd sum up his lil character arc perfectly, seeing as the main theme is family and all

#dreamworks trolls #trolls band together #tiny diamond #guy diamond #i wanted him to jump into his daddys hands n be like #daddy i change my mind i wanna keep being baby #also guy d was totes freaking out when he realized his 1 month son who he loves n adores was fucking GONE for like 3 days #we as a society need to appreciate their relationship more they r literally the cutest #castortxt

[castorfell]

Tiny Diamond must be microscopic to Velvet and Veneer no wonder he wasn't in the final fight scene

#dreamworks trolls #trolls band together #tiny diamond #literally so itty bitty #hes troll palm sized n trolls themselves r rubber noddle people palm sized #he must be like a speck of dust #castortxt

Mount Rageous Worldbuilding Headcanons

Thoughts, interpretations and a lil analysis of the culture and lifestyle of rubber noodle people based off of what we saw in the movie and some behind the scenes stuff

Lmk if anything doesn't make sense!

It's been stated before in an interview that all the inhabitants of Mount Rageous are teenagers, but Velvet & Veneer's convo and flashback confirm that there exists full grown adults with paying jobs and also child Rageons who need to live under said adult's care until they become teens. That scene also states that suburbs are a thing which I assume is just like a regular neighbourhood type area, most likely not as flashy as the main of Mount Rageous

Since Mount Rageous is a floating city, it's suburbs are under it on the ground

I like to think that the water from the yacht riverways on Mount Rageous eventually fall from the sky and becomes rain for the suburbs

Mount Rageous' entire shtick is that it's a big teenage hangout. It's run by teens for teens. It's structure is mainly based on entertainment

Mount Rageous have different districts that focus on different types of entertainers like how the troll tribes are seperated by music genres. The areas of Mount Rageous we see in the movie is in a district dedicated to Singers. The other districts are Streamers, Actors, Comedians, etc with their own set of subclasses. Basically anything that appears on a screen for entertainment purposes is someone's teen career on Mount Rageous

Of course there are also jobs on Mount Rageous that have to actually keep the place running. Like bouncers, security guards and cops such as we've seen in the movie. Normal day-to-day jobs like barista or fast food worker are still a thing, they just don't procure you fame

Rageons have a lifestyle structure based on the concept of 15 minutes of fame. They're raised from birth as regular, boring nobody children, reach their teenage years and set off to Mount Rageous to either party their youth away or try to achieve fame of some sort, then go back to the suburbs to begin their life as a boring nobody adult. Not all Rageons care to be famous superstars, instead just focusing on having fun and making friends

Life as an entertainer on Mount Rageous is brutal and harsh, such is the life for anything related to performing arts. You need to have what it takes to make it and to stay making it. But if you've got talent, you'll probably make top 100 at some point

Achieving ultimate stardom (the Life-Award that V&V were on their way to accept) on Mount Rageous means that they basically get to be solidified in Mount Rageous history forever. EVERYONE will know you. It's FAME! It lets you live forever (metaphorically). It also guarantees a cushiony adult life where you don't have to work as a dentist

Since trolls bleed pink I like to think that Rageons bleed purple. Fun blood colours! Homestucks DNI /nsrs

Rageons have dinner for breakfast and breakfast for dinner. Pizza before school and cereal after. V&V's dad asked about school while they were eating cereal bc it was dinner time

Rageons don't have the same hair powers that trolls do but I like to think that it's still manipulatable in some ways seeing as how Veneer apparently grew longer hair for his mullet in the final act of the movie

Das all I can think of for now I don't like how much I've thought abt this

#dreamworks trolls #trolls band together #velvet and veneer #headcanons #castortxt #the thought process is that its kinda inspired by codename knd in a way #where the kids (or teens in this case) have their own society seperate from adults

[castorfell]

Headcanon that Mount Rageons have breakfast for dinner and dinner for breakfast so the reason Velvet and Veneer were eating cereal when their dad asked how was school is cuz they were having dinner

#dreamworks trolls #trolls band together #velvet and veneer #castortxt #pancakes and bacon before bed n rotisserie chicken first thing in the morn #funny cartoon logic ykwim

NO ONE FUCKING TOUCH ME IM GOING INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!

#don't starve together #dst #wilson percival higgsbury #maxwell carter #YEAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! #i WILL put that wilson IN A JAR #castortxt

[castorfell]

Headcanon that glitter trolls used to be disco trolls and when disco died they all spread out and interegrated themselves into different tribes (mostly pop)

#dreamworks trolls #trolls world tour #guy diamond #castortxt #im gripping that throwaway line from world tour with an iron fist #WAITER OH WAITER MORE glitter trolls lore PLEASE #IDKK i just think shiny things are interesting #guy d tag mostly for reach #but him and his pod in tbgo is mostly what inspired this thought

[castorfell]

I have a thought about the Trolls babies, so we see Tiny Diamond born and he is already walking and talking, later in the same movie we see this with a country Troll born and immediately doing chores, we also see Cooper born already walking talking and his iconic laugh.

originally I thought that these three trolls were exceptions to the rule with baby Poppy in the first movie as the baseline rule of she can't walk she barely talks and acts like a regular human baby BUT

What if Poppy was an early baby, like for Trolls an egg has been in the hair long enough for a fully matured hatch where they will be able to walk and talk even if they still have baby tendencies (as seen with Tiny Diamond) So Poppy may have been a pre-mature hatch which is why she was more like the regular babies we as humans know.

Yknow what I actually completely forgot about like, every other instance of baby trolls that weren't Tiny and Poppy so I rescind any previous statements n opinions abt trollings. This franchise has a surprising amount of characters being born on-screen.

So yeah I guess most baby trolls really DO just hatch out the egg already sentient and cognitive and able to do chores and sing and dance, it's just POPPY who was different. She came out the egg still mushy brained.

It would explain why she doesn't remember Viva. Viva says that she was there when Poppy was born. The word "born" being used specifically here is a bit confusing because I'm not sure if it referes to the moment a troll egg physically manifests from what I assume to be the sheer force of love felt between more than one troll (Guy Diamond excluded, that's a discussion for another time) or the moment a troll egg actually hatches. Viva also comments that compared to current Poppy, baby Poppy the last time she saw her was "teensier and weensier" which is either just how Viva describes baby trolls in general (she fun like that) or a literal comment about how baby Poppy was possibly smaller than other baby trolls. Maybe both. Probably both.

Her birth likely happened close to the day of the last Trollstice and pop village escaping Bergentown since Chef was already aware of her existance.

Tldr; Poppy was a pre-maturely hatched baby, that's why she looked ugly (affectionate). Do with this information what you will.

#egg on my face for assuming the small toy people with magic hair would adhere to the rules of human biology #unless it was for a funny haha gag joke #they fart glitter n cupcakes so like #also i watched the end of twt again and the baby trolls were all fully understanding of poppys storytelling #so poppy rlly is the outlier here lmao #idk why im still talking abt this #dreamworks trolls #castortxt #asks

[castorfell]

Imma be real I genuinely hope that the question as to whether Poppy and Viva have a biological mother or not never gets answered or even hinted at. I think it's cool how a majority of the Trolls characters don't have complete, nuclear families! It makes the whole family message stronger :D

#dreamworks trolls #trolls band together #queen poppy #trolls viva #castortxt #sometimes a family can be a pop queen her estranged long lost sister and their secretkeeper pos dad #sometimes a family can be a boyband of bros and their dead grandma #sometimes a family can be a guy who reproduced asexually via egg mitosis #also i think 3 movies in a row with a plot that relies on a secret family member would be #kinda lame #i grew up with a deadbeat dad n for a long time i never understood why we never did anything most families on tv did #trolls is a pretty recent interest for me and its too late to change how things are now #but i appreciate their lil hodgepodge families
