#JD is obsessively trying to correct his mistake (failing to save clay) by trying to find him and spruce if they’re still out there

Does the flower from your first n2 post have any significance? Why isn't it blooming?
Yes the flower here does have significance!
It’s a memorial flower, the exact species of flower is one I made up, it’s one that has a strange growth period, there’s no real way to tell when it’s going to bloom but it does only bloom at night.
John Dory got the seeds while on one of his searches and gave it to Floyd since at the time Floyd was severely depressed and was spending all day everyday in his room in the bunker. JD had given Floyd a bunch of seeds for a garden but Floyd ended up only planting one which he’s been taking care of since he planted it.
He planted it on Clays birthday so they refer to it as Clay’s flower, but it’s a memorial for all their lost family members, so their parents, grandma, Clay, and Spruce/Bruce
Other than just maintaining it, Floyd also talks to it like the ones they lost can hear him through the flower, he visits it at least once everyday while the other brothers only visit on anniversaries and birthdays. (They also only bring the lights and photos out then as well, to keep the photos safe from damage)
It’s Floyd’s way of grieving :)
#ryss responds#not the only one au#n2 au#trolls#trolls 3#trolls band together#trolls Floyd#I wanted to give them each a different way of grieving their family#JD is obsessively trying to correct his mistake (failing to save clay) by trying to find him and spruce if they’re still out there#branch isolates and builds a bunker to protect himself and what family he has left#and Floyd does gardening#they also refer to the area where the flower is as the garden or Floyd’s garden#even tho there’s only one flower#the area around the flower is also heavily booby trapped#the only people who know how to get to it are the brothers and poppy#this is to stop trolls from accidentally harming it and to stop critters from eating it#its a big flower by troll standards but by others its a small flower#in my head its one of those that are usually in clusters#but this one stands alone#maybe its a metaphor#who knows teehe#but yeah I’ve actually thought about the flower a lot#also the reason poppy knows where to find it and how to get to it is because she helps take care of it when Floyd’s away#she’s also the one who picked the spot#she doesn’t like the traps but any one she took down immediately got replaced so she stopped trying#and just learned the steps to get around them#btw the steps to get around the traps are the old choreo for a brozone song lmao#because I loved that aspect of tbgo where branch sets the paths around traps to songs from his childhood#so he done did it again
