JD tells Branch about their parents

During a camping trip as Branch asked John Dory about their parents that John Dory had waited for years.

_____________________________________

John Dory is sitting on a log as he is looking at book which is a family photo album. He looks at the photos of him and his brothers, and keeps turning the page every time until he stops at one with a photo of him, his brothers, and two trolls. The male troll had light cyan skin, John Dory's teal hair, and yellow eyes. The female troll had cyan skin, Branch's blue hair, and blue eyes.

The troll couple were his parents, Rowan Basil and Rose Willow. They were everything to him and his brothers, John Dory sadly sighs as he misses them. He hears a twig snap as he turns his attention to the source and saw his brothers, Poppy, and Viva "Hi, JD" Viva said "Are you alright, John Dory?" Bruce asked.

"I'm fine, I'm just...looking at our family photos" John Dory replied as his brothers come to look at photos and Branch's eyes widen at the sight of the troll couple "Is that...Mom and Dad?" he asked "Yes, it is" Clay replied as Poppy and Viva joined them. "Your parents look familiar as if I've seen them before" Viva said.

"Our mother, Rose Willow is friends with Queen Sunny, Poppy and Viva's mother. And our father, Rowan Basil is King Peppy's right-hand troll" John Dory explained "Now, I remember: Rose Willow was my babysitter when Mom and Dad go off on a date or something" Viva explained.

Branch glances at a photo of his parents, brothers, and him as an egg then something struck him "Hey, John Dory...I have a question that I wanted to be answered for all these years...What happened to Mom and Dad?" Branch asked. John Dory became hesitant before replying "When it was last time you asked that question?"

"To Grandma when I was little and she told me that to wait until I'm older" Branch said "Well, it's a good thing, she did because you were too young to understand what happened to Mom and Dad" Bruce added. As John Dory began "Years ago, when you were just a baby, just six months old..."

(Flashback)

Young John Dory was practicing his band song and choreography as he is unaware of a bergen approaching "I was so busy with by practice, I didn't hear my parents trying to warn me" John Dory said as Rowan and Rose Willow saw the bergen approaching their oldest son "John Dory! Watch out!" Rowan shouted as he and his wife rushed towards him, but the young JD didn't listen to him and the bergen is getting closer "Watch out, son!" Rose Willow shouted.

John Dory turns around as he saw his parents then the bergen as was about to grab him until his father shoved him out of the way as he and his wife were grabbed instead "Mom! Dad!" young JD shouted as he extends his hair for his parents to grab on as they did.

"Hold on, I got you" young JD said "John Dory..." Rose Willow said "Don't worry, I'll get you out!" young John Dory exclaimed "John Dory" Rowan said "What?" young JD replied "Just let go" Rowan said. "What? But, I need you guys, so do my brothers, and so does Branch" young JD protested "Your grandma will take care of you and your brothers" Rowan replied.

"John Dory...take of your brothers, do you promise?" Rose Willow asked as the young John Dory is bursting tears "I promise" he replied "Here's something to remember me" Rowan said as he removes his face goggles and tossed it to John Dory as he catches it "Tell your brothers that we love them so much" Rose Willow said "I will" young JD said as his parents let go of his hair. John Dory watches the bergen walk away with his parents as he glances his father's face goggles then he began walk back to the pod.

At the pod...

John Dory arrived at the pod as Grandma Rosiepuff and his brothers saw him, they were happy to see him until they saw his sad expression "What's wrong?" Grandma Rosiepuff asked "Are those Dad's goggles?" Spruce asked "Where's Mom and Dad?" Clay asked. John Dory answered as he explained what happened and his brothers became heartbroken as Grandma Rosiepuff comforts her grandsons despite being heartbroken.

The brothers were asleep in their beds as they are woke up by Branch's cry. John Dory got out of his bed and pulls Branch out of his crib "You miss Mom and Dad, don't you?" JD said as Branch continued crying which he takes it as a yes. "I miss them too...I wanted to save them" he explained as Branch stopped crying and listen to his oldest brother "but they told me take care of my brothers especially you" JD said as he bursts into tears and Branch placed his baby hands on JD's face then JD brings Branch closer to him and snuggles him "And I will keep their promise, Grandma and the four of you are what I have left, and I will make our parents proud, Baby Brother" JD said as Branch smiles and goes to sleep.

(Flashback ends)

"Then that day when Brozone broke up, I felt like that I had failed our parents' promise and blamed myself for all of this. A failure as a band leader, a brother, a son, and a grandson. For years, I've been living with that guilt, and I let Mom, and Dad, even Grandma down as all of this is my fault" John Dory explained as he bursts into tears and sniffs then wiped his tears away. His three younger brothers comfort him as Branch stood there in shock from everything that John Dory told him before replying.

"I can relate to that, John Dory" he said as everyone looked at him and Poppy knew what Branch is going to say "I know what is like to lose someone you love and blame yourself for this...When I was a little kid, I was in the song, I didn't hear my grandma trying to warn me. She saved me from being taken away from the bergen chef and gets taken instead. I was heartbroken when she was took away that I lost my true colors and became gray. For 20 years, I lived with trauma and believing it was my fault for Grandma's death" Branch explained as he wipes his tears.

His brothers were surprised by this, Branch had already told them what happened to her, but they didn't knew he was responsible for her death. John Dory placed his hand on Branch's shoulder "No it's not...It's not your fault grandma died" he said as Branch listens to John Dory "Grandma sacrificed herself to save you so you can live. And, I now realized that our parents' death is not my fault either, they sacrificed themselves so I can live too, if weren't for them you and I wouldn't be here today" he explained as Branch smiles then hugs John Dory and John Dory is touched by this gesture as he hugs him back then Bruce, Clay, and Floyd joined in.

Poppy and Viva were bursting into tears and trying to hold their sobbing "This is the most beautiful family moment, I've ever seen" Poppy said "Me too" Viva added. "Let's take a photo to remember this" Bruce suggested as everyone gather around to get ready for photo. Viva readies the camera then she quickly runs to the group as the camera took their photo.

John Dory steps out of the group and approaches the camera, the photo prints out as he pulls it out to examine it "Is it good?" Viva asked as John Dory gave her a thumbs-up "It's perfect" he replied.

As he looks at the description of the photo: he, Branch, and Poppy were sitting on the ground. Viva, Clay, Bruce, and Floyd were behind them. The photo reminds him of another like this, he picks up the family album and founds the photo he is looking for. It was him, his brothers, and his parents.

He, his mom, and Bruce/Spruce were on the floor. Clay, Floyd, and his dad were sitting on the couch as he was holding Branch. "I'm made you very proud, Mom and Dad, and we are now looking out for each other, I wished you met Bruce's kids, you would be more than excited to become grandparents" John Dory said.

The circle of life (?)

Yes, this is inspired by the Modern Family pilot

It took a lot of time for Rosiepuff to get used to Rowan as a whole, nothing personal, he’s just truly something

I totally left an easter egg on this comic hope someone notices it and yeah the angst it’s coming back on the next one, well I don’t know if It counts as angst but it follows the present story line.

Do you get déjà vu?

The googles PART 2/2

Part 1/2

That’s the face of “we were going to tell him about our parents once he got older but weren’t there when he got older”

Branch was finally the one that looked like her

So no, Branch doesn’t know anything about Rowan or Willow, nobody told him so he never asked not even how they looked like so that’s why he doesn’t know about the googles, Why JD had Willow’s googles laying around? A mistery for later

I found it funny because JD was giving him the most emotional gift ever and Branch was just oblivious excited to get a gift from his bro 😭

(I just found out that Branch has a mole in his cheek and I went nuts)

JD since when have you been wearing those googles?

“Been wearing them since I can remember” PART 1/2

Part 2/2

This is actually part of the ‘Roots before Branches AU” timeline but instead of showing them in order I’ll be showing “what happened” on these flashback comics

They had 5 kids and only the fifth one takes after Willow

I can’t believe Jd was born with a square face

I wonder if Rowan and Willow have a favourite kid, or they love them all equally 👀

To be fair Branch is everyone’s favourite

And also the only one who won't die if u don’t keep an eye on him 24/7

Introducing Creek’s dad Ripple!

The first comic that Ripple appears in is a f turd joke and the second time it’s going to be the angstiest comic ever

This is a rivalry that has been going on for generations for absolutely no reason but to dad-shame each other till the end

-Some new revealed info-

Ripple is a single dad and its Urban outfitter’s most loyal client

Him and Rowan don’t hate HATE eachother (they are in the same friend group) they just can’t stand each others presence

And as you can see Creek is older than Branch being Branch here still a baby and him a toddler

there’s going to be a comic explaining why Creek and Branch don’t get along in the future

Ripple’s design is not only based on creeks canon but also on his late concept art, and I put him in sweat pants because they are honestly easier to draw

“Forever fiances”

WHO PUT ALL THIS ANGST NEXT TO MY SILLY COMICS?!

Okay to whoever said that Willow never had a daughter is totally wrong because Viva is totally adopted in her mind (she’s actually Willow’s goddaughter but she will fight Peppy for her in a second).In this comic Floyd is still an egg that’s why Viva said 4 kids instead of 5. I actually made this comics with totally different characters on a different scenario (I was going to introduce a new parent character) but I didn’t like how it turned out so I made it from the beginning but with Viva. ( i found Viva’s obsession for planning Poppy’s wedding so funny for no reason and that gave me the idea)

I’m still deciding If I should show more of Rowan and Willow when they met or wait a little longer and show it after showing how they got taken??? I don’t know Maybe a comic about the present? I’m still deciding, comics are taking longer because I’m also on other projects so I don’t have a lot of time.

Omg Branch's existence is literally the epitome of "And they kept trying for a normal kid."

And I don’t blame them, look at those four

It was more a “And they kept trying for a kid that took after Willow” because the first four let me tell you were a 100% Rowan’s fault

On their way to tell Melody and TJ that they are going to be uncle and aunt again

Do I have the parents of the entire snack pack? Maybe

Am I going to post them all? Maybe

I don’t know if the designs are clear but the dudes in this comic are DJ Suki’s parents

I kind of made them to be like Branch’s and now Brozone’s Aunt and Uncle

I’m kind of trying to find a new style that it’s easier to draw for me because I’m way more used to draw people than trolls 💀💀💀

A family of 7

Okay since everything in the last comics was angst here you have some apology comfort✨🧚🏽‍♀️

At first Branch was going to be an egg but then I thought that I barely ever draw the 7 of them together, also the 7 of them sharing a bed is actually quite common since Willow and Rowan work a lot during the day and most of the time have at least one of the kids with each of them it gets difficult for the whole family to be together at one place if it’s not at night.

If Rosiepuff, Willow, and Rowan ever help out Brozone with their band career, what would they work at? Like a manager, a roadie(as in a bodyguard), a photographer, or a fashion/makeup artist.

They were just Mom and Dad

It would have been nice

But that never happened because Rowan and Willow got taken before Brozone was a thing

(So yeah they kind of weren’t anything because they x_x u know)

I think is genuinely funny that I can’t for my life answer a question normally, like this question was perfect to make a funny comic but I said WHAT ABOUT NO, gosh the story is starting to go into the sad part and I’m so sorry but at the same time I’m not like, it’s only getting worse from here 💀💀 (also thank you for the question! /gen)

(So if anyone didn’t get it in these scenes Willow and Rowasn are stopping Brozone from leaving after “the big fight” but it was actually just Clay’s dream, because their parents got taken before Brozone existed) Here’s the fll document withour the zoom in

How old are branchs parents in your au? They look like they are in their 60's

They would be around their mid 60’s in the canon timeline as in Trolls Band Together💀

So in the old AU (before band together) they were around 25 ish, but in the current AU (with brozone etc) they are in their really late 30’s pushing 40

I actually have a comic planned around “why the 5 kids” prepared but It’s going to take a little longer, anyways Rowan is currently in a mid life crisis

(Also that’s Juniper, Viva and Poppy’s mom)
