Bitty, Geronimo and Rhoda! For @jellfishjellfish fic Dereliction, just a cute moment from ch. 17. Otherwise known as JD’s world, god I love JD comes back fics!

Geronimo is the little bat in Branch’s hair. A bloodhound bug based off Barb’s Debbie, just pop-ified and cotton candy coloured version!

@jellfishjellfish

It took forever but here is the Plumsy drawing. She is sooo cute. I also put Bitty in, why not?

[isabel3710]

You know what is really interesting?

I uploaded the first chapter of 'I Will Aways Be There' only a couple of days after @jellfishjellfish posted the first chapter of 'Dereliction.'

It's even stranger when you realize (in a sense) that are fics are pretty similar. 'Dereliction' is where John Dory raising Branch and 'I Will Aways Be There' is what is Clay raised Branch.

[jellfishjellfish]

This is amazing!!! Screaming, dying, everything about this is incredible!!

John Dory making pasta‼️🍝

he’s so silly. love him.

Anyways, loving the series as always. Thanks @jellfishjellfish for feeding me with art inspo

(He’s wearing an old Brozone shirt ╥﹏╥ )

🩷❤️🤎🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🩶🤍🩷❤️🤎🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🩶🤍

I’ve been reading @jellfishjellfish Dreamworks Trolls Fanfiction “Dereliction” & I’ve been wanting to draw some Fanart for them, but I’ve not been able to until now, so I drew two.

The first sketch is of John Dory comforting Branch after he’s had a nightmare & Branch begging for John Dory to stay with him (Pretty much breaking his Heart💔)

The second sketch is of Branch taking a nap on John Dory’s lap & Floyd is finding this adorable & cooing over the sleepy Bitty B😴😱🥹🥰

Here’s a link to the Fanfic on Archive of Our Own:

I do hope you like the sketches @jellfishjellfish & I absolutely Love your Fanfic💖

Also shoutout to @blackmarquer for their Fantasamazing! Artwork based on this Fanfiction!

See you all next time👋

MY TURN TO REC SOMETHING <3

Dereliction by jellfish - ao3, 137k words - M, Graphic Depictions of Violence (Incomplete)

JD Raises Branch AU

When John Dory receives word from his Grandma that Branch isn't doing so well, he feels obliged to go back. Just to check, just to make sure they were okay. He never expected this.

Basically, what if John Dory had no idea his other brothers had actually left? He returns to find Branch grey, malnourished and living alone outside the village, and he decides he has to step up and be the brother Branch needs him to be.

Featuring: a JD who is doing his best™, and a Branch who is 90% paranoia 10% guilt

mod note: I really love this fic!! It's written incredibly well and I'm 100% a sucker for JD content lol. WARNING, though: the violence tag IS important to this fic- certain scenes are tough and pretty heavy. read at your own discretion

[starsha-k-luna]

This is so Cute🥰 I swear I can feel my teeth rotting with how sweet this is💖

In chapter 34 of Dereliction by @jellfishjellfish John, Clay, and Floyd sing Happy HatchDay to Branch. The cute little bug gets so happy that some of his color comes back. Unfortunately that also meant he could taste the extra super sour cake John made just for him

Hopefully this comic serves as the exact opposite of what my last Dereliction comic did.

[jellfishjellfish]

Branch at some point: remember that time when you guys all thought I’d drowned and it brought us all closer together as a family? 😌

Bruce:…I’m sorry what?

JD Clay & Floyd: *horrified faces*

Branch: *sipping tea* ahhh good times 😌

Would you recommend the SSSS comic? I know little of it beside the very beautiful artstyle and premise

to answer the question of if i would recommend SSSS as a comic: yes, yes i would.

a description for those who don't know: Stand Still Stay Silent is a post-apocalyptic horror + adventure webcomic set in the nordics (norway, sweden, denmark, finland, iceland) that have been isolated from the rest of the world and gone back to their old gods. the the world outside of safe zones is full of trolls and beasts - humans and mammals that got infected by a horrible virus and turned into monsters. the story follows a ragtag crew that ventures into the old world (derelict denmark) on an expedition to collect books.

the comic updated every workday until it concluded in 2022, and consists of two Adventures. the creator had plans for many adventures with these characters in this world, but ended it after two when she wanted to take a new direction with her life.

what i love about it:

- the art is GORGEOUS. it's been a huge source of inspiration for me. open any page and it's a masterpiece, and you will ask yourself "how the FUCK did she update this FIVE DAYS A WEEK"

- the characters are wonderful and endearing. i just, i love them so much. i am so thankful lalli hotakainen exists he is one of my #1 blorbos forever

- the world is so cool. the blend of chunky sci-fi and norse mythology fantasy magic slaps. it goes so hard. i fell so hard for this comic when i got to the big ferry ship with a viking style dragon head prow added to it. it's everything

- it really really gets nordic cultures. it's difficult to explain all the dynamics and nuances but it just gets it. it brings me as a scandinavian a lot of joy to read a story that speaks to my heart this way. the attitudes, the language barriers, the cultural differences... it was so refreshing to me in a media landscape dominated by american stories. when the pandemic hit, i decided to reread the comic because i found such an odd comfort in seeing how it depicted the scandinavian countries reacting to, well, a pandemic.

- there's kittycats

what i don't like about it:

- the most glaring and obvious flaw is that everyone in the comic is white. there's not a single character of color anywhere, not even i background shots or the prologue. there's no mention of the saami people (the indigenous people of northern europe), either. i believe this was done in ignorance more than malicious intent, but the implications are Extremely Bad and it's been bothering me (AND MANY OTHERS) since day 1. that is the number one caveat i will give to anyone wanting to check this comic out. i've been in the discourse trenches and i am not going to excuse this. it's just bad!

- you can tell in the middle of adventure 2 that the creator has kind of lost interest in the work, around the time when she found jesus i guess. like, very few people can keep up work on the same creative project for years and years and years and i think it's fine that she wanted to drop it, but it's a bit sad to see the comic dragged to its end like a limp corpse, and feeling like the creator no longer really cares about the characters.

- minna sundberg has said and done some questionable things, presumably gotten somewhat radicalised over time, and has also converted to hardcore christianity which is what her new works are about. there's nothing about this in SSSS - there is a moment of christianity represented in the story in a sort of mythological sense, just like the other religions, but this was written before minna's conversion. her new works... are a Choice. i have much to say about them, and i have, and im not gonna rehash it now.

SO YEAH hopefully this will help you take an Informed Choice! i got into this comic in 2015 and was deep in the fandom and it's for better or for worse part of my soul foundation now.

i also recommend A Redtail's Dream, minna's "practice comic" before SSSS, based on finnish mythology and the kalevala.

Is it still a knock-off if you hire one of the most iconic artists of the place you’re knocking off to do a cover for you? Larry Elmore actually did two Role Aids covers — the next featured on the first Demons box set (and I love it). Little ambivalent about this one, though it does seem to intentionally channel a lot of design work that references both Dragonlance and Forgotten Realms. Like it or not, I enjoy how the Ray Winninger era of Role Aids seems to be intentionally thumbing its nose at TSR in a way the earlier iteration was not.

Anyway, this is A Portal to Adventure (1992). It is more a toolbox for adventures rather than a formal adventure. Think the Task Force Citybooks, or TSR’s site books that would come out a little later on in the ‘90s (Castle Sites, etc). It’s a collection of NPCs, city sites, wilderness sites and an array of new magic items. I love love love books like this.

The NPCs are OK. They’re well realized, but NPCs are not what I would reach for when improvising an adventure. Maybe I have a natural affinity for whipping up NPCs on the fly? I dunno. YMMV. Likewise, the magic items are sturdy but mostly filling in logical gaps in the official D&D lists, for example: a ring of talking to animals, a staff that turns into a snake, a sword that is really good against trolls, and so on.

The sites are great, though, perfect to drop in anywhere in an ongoing game to provide material for a session or two (or more!). There’s a great derelict tower with a hidden treasure room, a pet shop with a sideline in bloodsports, a wizard’s abode in a hollowed out stalactite that hangs over an abyss. The ruined town is pretty great, too, as is the temple of bat worshipers. My favorite, though is the oracle in a broken hilltop that comes complete with a table of cryptic portents. I am going to steal a bunch of these for my game, no doubt about it.

I love this so much!! Thank you! They look so good, and all the ✨details✨ Bitty’s earrings, the bite mark ahhh everything is amazing!!

I've been wanting to draw some fanart for this fan fiction for awhile now! It's from Dereliction by @jellfishjellfish It's honestly my fav Trolls fan fic and I look forward to every new chapter! :)

[lavanderowl]

got any fav trolls fic? (knowing you half of them is John Dory related eh)

hehe more like all of them!! i just love fics where JD is raising Branch a lot! Here are my top 10 in no particular order!

Dereliction by jellfish. "When John Dory receives word from his Grandma that Branch isn't doing so well, he feels obliged to go back. Just to check, just to make sure they were okay. He never expected this." ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/52955260/chapters/133958266)

Smoke and Starlight by blade_that_was_broken. "Branch figures John Dory would know the best. He was the oldest and possibly – probably – more willing to talk about it. It wasn't something he really considered until he watched Bruce with his children, and it had to make him wonder about his own parents. The ones he's pretty sure he's never met." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/53321938/chapters/134948782)

Brilliant Blue and Muted Magenta by PrincessPoppifer. "Grey Poppy Trolls AU. Poppy hardly remembers her Family. She only really remembers that it was the horrible Bergens that took them from her. Even after the escape she finds herself unable to open up to the trolls trying to help her. Except maybe a particularly persistent Blue Troll who knows that she has happiness inside of her, and is determined to help her bring it out." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/54837184/chapters/138998953)

It's Like You're My Mirror by rytheoneandonly. "When Branch's brothers move into the bunker for a short while to catch up as Floyd recovers, Branch really doesn't expect to have anything in common with them. Least of all with his oldest, most irritating brother, John Dory. But as time goes on and the clock ticks down to when they all go their separate ways again, he discovers he's not the only one struggling to move on from the past." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/52535884/chapters/132894079)

John Dory's Quick and Concise Guide on How To Survive by rytheoneandonly. "John Dory's life was amazing. His brothers were back together, he wasn't alone anymore, and he wasn't fighting for his life out on the Neverglade Trail. Everything was perfect, except for one thing... Him. John Dory’s been running for a long time, and with the past creeping up on him, threatening to destroy the life and happiness he so desperately wants, John Dory resorts to doing the one thing he hasn't failed at yet. Survive." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/53100640/chapters/134351992)

The Eldest and the Youngest by TheMiraculousMat. "Of all the brothers Branch expected to return: John Dory was at the bottom of the list." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/52235974/chapters/132132889)

The whole I'm Still Here series by blade_that_was_broken Trust me just check it out i don't want to spoil it! (https://archiveofourown.org/series/3995641)

Rewinding Our Fate by trollsbuzz "When Branch got home after their long journey and reunited his and Poppy’s families, Branch was so happy that it almost felt like all the great adventures he and Poppy had been on were a dream… Then, as he jolts awake, he looked down at his grey skin to realize that it actually was one. He’s back to the day that everything started; the 20th anniversary of their escape." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/54234016/chapters/137337514)

Great Decisions by rytheoneandonly "Surviving in the wilderness really isn't all it's cracked up to be. After being gone for a year, John Dory returns to the Troll Tree to find it completely empty. Save for one troll: His baby brother, Branch. Thinking the trolls and the rest of his family dead, he sets off once again to the Neverglade Trail, this time, with his baby brother in tow. Fueled by fear, guilt, and the past he just can't seem to escape, he wonders if he made the right decision. But he promised his brother he would never leave him again. So he wouldn't. Besides, he was never known for his great decisions anyways." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/56059690/chapters/142385026)

Whatever May Come by Hoodie2 "John Dory regrets the things he said and did when BroZone broke up. The band can be left behind but John Dory would never abandon his family." (https://archiveofourown.org/works/56200813/chapters/142771177)

And a lot more but i could talk about fics forever and ever!
