Prompt 4: Magic

Ok, so I’ve not seen anyone do this so I’m doing it now. I think we can all agree that Jims amulets have some sort of sentience, at least Jim believes they do.

I love the scene in the second ep when he tries to aboandon it but it keeps coming back to him in the most extravagant ways, toying with his emotions. reminds be of it having the sentience of a dog, so I made both amulets into dogs!

Your welcome.

( side note, I feel like in the new timeline the new amulet would get jealous of the original one. And be even more protective of there owner after everything that had happened to both of them, hence the growling armour puppy.)

Daylight and Arcane are inspired by pit bulls.

Hello ☺️

I know you've done general Jim, jlaire, and troll dad Blinky headcanons, but do you have any specific to the new timeline and even beyond? I love all of your ask posts btw, such fantastic Au's and our hc generally almost always align!

Hi!

Thanks for your kind words ❤ ❤ ❤

My oldest headcanon about the new timeline exists since July, 21, 2021 (when I wrote this oneshot https://archiveofourown.org/works/32729335 ). This one is that Jim keeps the new amulet and Excalibur in the new timeline.

My other headcanons about the new timeline and beyond were build through the two and half years (a lot of stuff keeps expanding, to be honest).

So here's my really long post about the happy ending for everyone.

Jim has managed to make everything right in this timeline, even with some stuff he didn't predict (like Enrique was still kidnapped - it just happened on a different date).

Everyone in the new timelines has these odd hunches about things they experienced in the first timeline. Like Claire having some odd attraction to Jim, Blinky being fatherly to Jim, and Barbara getting random thoughts that Strickler might be inhuman. Toby has it the worst as he can't help but think that everything is not his adventure and that Jim would be a better hero.

Because of hunches both Claire and Barbara find out the truth way earlier.

However, Toby is the first who realize that Jim somehow knows about all the incoming events. Jim has no choice but to confess about the time travel. He keeps the details from everyone though, especially those that might cause complications.

Jim brings Douxie into the team before the final encounter with Bular. Claire requests Douxie to become her magic teacher once she joins and he agrees.

Aja, Krel, and Varvatos join once they arrive on Earth.

Draal lives. Vendel is injured but also survives.

Angor gets his soul back this time. He isn't happy with Strickler but decides to let it go per Jim's request.

Toby spares Bular (much to Jim's shock). Bular starts to live in Toby's house, trying to reconsider his ways. Initially, Draal watches his actions and they eventually become friends.

Morgana fails to possess Claire. She possesses Angor instead.

Strickler manages to convince some changelings to switch sides, so more changelings survive.

Jim doesn't allow Merlin to transform anyone into a half-troll. He shows Merlin Excalibur (leaving the latter speechless), so Merlin begrudgingly agrees to try Jim's plan first.

After Gunmar's death, Bular inherits Decimaar and uses it to liberate all the trolls his father controlled.

Jim and Claire talk Morgana into trying to give co-existence a second chance. She isn't convinced fully but agrees to wait.

The residents of the Trollmarket never go to New Jersey, which means that Aja and Krel have more people to help them.

Jim is deadset on never letting anyone be hit with an onyx shard. He ends up taking the hit for Claire - only to discover that it has no effect on him (as Excalibur cannot harm his owner and Jim is technically another owner because of the time paradox).

Merlin isn't happy to learn that the Green Knight is actually King Arthur. The same goes for Morgana, but she blames Merlin for her brother ending that way.

Merlin finally realizes that he has been too stubborn all the time, refusing to see other options. He uses all his magic to seal Bellroc and Skrael and entrusts Douxie with leading the new king of Camelot.

AND NOW TO BEYOND

Jim is technically the King of Camelot now, which makes him rather uncomfortable at first. However, with Douxie's encouragement, he realizes that more than an authority figure, he's King of knights, a noble protector of both humanity and magical beings, and the first among equals.

Claire continues with her magical studies, fully determined to prove that shadowmancy isn't always evil and can bring much good to this world. She consults a lot with Morgana, even though she still considers Douxie her teacher.

Toby is still this timeline's Trollhunter but lately, he mostly deals with small errands from Bagdwella and other trolls. He doesn't mind as it feels a lot like vacation after everything the team has gone through.

Blinky succeeds Vendel as the leader of Trollmarket. He thinks about bringing some reform to the Tribunal and some obsolete traditions, thinking that trolls should start a new page in their history.

Aaarrrgghh always helps Blinky in his endeavors, but he protects peace in Arcadia. He's much like a local celebrity and kids love him.

Mary and Darci start a blog about various magical creatures, trying to show humans that the supernatural isn't that harmful. Mary also tries to date a troll at some point. It doesn't work, but only because of personality differences, not because their species are too different.

Barbara returns to drawing. Strickler uses some of his connections to promote her art a bit. Surprisingly, Barbara's art becomes really popular.

After some consideration, Strickler opens the school where different creatures, aliens, and humans can exchange their culture. He takes over as a principal and also teaches human history. Blinky comes over for troll history lessons, and when Claire is older she starts to teach Human World Literature there.

Eli is still the Earth ambassador at Akiridion-5, he's rather popular there. Eli is also the one who proposes the start of technological exchange with the Earth. Due to his efforts, Earth's technical progress is busted tremendously.

Steve the head of New Camelot Knights. However, eventually, once he is sure that everything is peaceful on Earth, he moves to Akiridion-5 to support Aja and help Eli. Even though Steve is officially married to Aja, he isn't that accepted at Akiridion-5 as it is technically breaking traditions. This time Aja informs him about all the nuances of akiridion reproduction. They still have kids, but only once both ready and consented to that.

Aja has a lot of stuff to solve, dealing with all the consequences of her parents' rule. She brings in lots of reforms and eventually limits her own authority, taking over the role of the main Akiridion-5 protector, while leaving everything else to those more fitting for it.

Krel moves to Earth, becoming Akiridion-5 ambassador and trying to popularize interstellar travels and exchange. He also has a side career as DJ Kleb.

Varvatos retires and starts living with Nana. Toby calls him granpa, which he doesn't like.

Douxie and Zoe go on the world tour with ADP once the world destruction is prevented. Claire, Mary, and Darci join them as Mama Skull.

Douxie opens his own cafe together with Jim. While they both are co-owners, Douxie enjoys taking over as a waiter occasionally, while Jim often cooks. It's the place where every creature is welcome, and well the Guardians often use it as their gathering spot.

Nomura becomes the leader of changelings who wish to return to troll society. Draal helps her a lot to fight for acceptance and against prejudices. They claim each other as mates, which causes an uproar in some circles. Even though both claim to be disastrous parents, they are great once they have their own kids.

Vendel retires, fully enjoying his rest. He comes to give blinky advice occasionally, but he's mostly a grumpy grandpa for everyone at the Trollmarket.

Dictatious takes over the troll library, adding some stuff he learns.

Angor goes on a travel (for an atonement, as he claims). He's seen all over the world, fighting against slavery and injustice at night. Soon enough he becomes a kind of city legend, and a lot of criminals are scared of him.

Bular goes to the Darklands, fully intending to reform the Gumm-Gumm tribe and get rid of the stigma they have.

Barbara and Strickler have their planned wedding and adopt some of the changelings' familiars, including Strickler's and Nomura.

Ironically, despite Jim and Claire being sure of each other feelings, Toby and Darci have their wedding first. It's the final push that makes Claire propose to Jim.

Enrique grows up to be a party monster, much because of NotEnrique's influence. They both tend to start parties which only Jim can stop.

Zelda (Nomura's familiar) is a huge fan of classical music, so they both can chat about it for hours. No one else is able to follow.

Wallie (Strickler's familiar), however, finds history boring. He's more of an IT and Math kid and is extremely talented. Strickler tells him the truth about their connection, and Wallie goes to live with Jim for some time to sort out his feelings. He forgives Strickler after some time though.

The world keeps changing as humans and supernatural beings learn to co-exist. Trolls take over dangerous mining, trading some difficult-to-get minerals. Humans also realize that trolls can eat some waste, which creates new ways to save nature. Nari feels that it's the world she, Bellroc, and Skrael wished to have before giving up and hopes that one day the rest of the Arcane Order will be unsealed and admit they were wrong.

Week one of keenswimmers2023, Dystopia prompt:

Jim's reset of the timeline at the end of RoTT doesn't go well. The amulet is destroyed, Gunmar free and the town scattered amid ruins. But Strickler being set up with Barbara works.

Now, with the changeling having a change of heart and the truth out, Barbara and Walter have a much needed talk in private while scavenging for food. And amid desolation, hope, and love, blooms. After some misunderstandings are cleared up of course.

The tragedy of romeo

Heads up if u don't like angsty stuff

"Oh Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? For what perpose is your name? Your name is nothing but a word; it does not make you the person you are. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Take away your name Romeo, and you could have me"

Jim strides toward the stage centre, channeling the feelings he can never truly share. Thinking of the girl he can never truly have

"juliet, I will be whatever you want me to be"

Claire looks at him with passion, it was not in the same way as before. There was no passion for him, only for a stranger

And that, that hurt.

He is just Romeo, not 'babe' or 'Jimmy jam'

Not 'little gynt' 'son' 'the bular slayer' 'Jim the baby handed'

Just Jim

"you hide in the darkness of the garden, but it is only your name, Montague, that is the enemy"

Tears brim Jim's eye as he looks at claire

Claire mustn't of noticed, she would've if he didn't turn back time

"if you do not like my name" Jim inhaled "then it is hateful to me, too. Call me love, and I shall have a new name"

Douxie's quote of the day

Honestly, this one came out of nowhere, but our Trollhunter apparently had to say it.

"A bag of money can represent not only wealth, but also massive inflation."

-Tobias Domzalski :P

See you guys tomorrow!!!

*does the Naruto run*

Trollhunters: Returning - Chapt 21

New chapter people! I know, it's been a minute, but MERLIN MY LOVE is here. Finally. Also, you know, some dude named Jim actually figures some stuff out xD

I've locked down the fic so you have to be logged in now (scrapers gonna scrape).

"Hey," Douxie said softly, catching Carter by the wrist. He pulled him closer, out of the way of troll foot traffic. "Do we need to talk?"

Carter huffed, but didn't fight him when Douxie gently pulled him closer, arms around his waist. Douxie took that as a win. "I hate that you didn't tell me sooner," he said.

Douxie pursed his lips. "I... darling I couldn't. You were already in New York, and I didn't want to pull you away from what you were doing."

Carter frowned. "Douxie, it was completely inconsequential. I care more about you. You left me in the dark for a month. And I-" he stopped and sucked in a breath. "And now I know what all those... dreams were about."

Douxie stared at him. "Dreams?"

Carter bit his lip. "I guess they weren't really dreams. It was just... you." He let out a soft breath, not willing to meet Douxie’s eyes. "I kept seeing their faces, Douxie. I think it was through your eyes. Your memories of a future that hasn't happened yet. Or will happen, I guess."

Douxie slowly realized what Carter meant. He'd been seeing all of Douxie’s future memories as dreams. And that meant... "Oh gods," he murmured. Carter’s hands bunched in his shirt. He still wouldn't look at him, and there were tears welling in his eyes. "You saw me die."

Carter’s bottom lip trembled and he nodded. "I kept feeling it. Like... like the memory of it, I guess. And everytime I woke up and you weren't next to me I was just- I panicked everytime before I realized you were fine. You were still here in California."

Douxie hugged him tightly, letting Carter tuck his face into the crook of his neck. "I'm so sorry, love. I should have realized it would affect you too."

"It was torture," Carter whispered. "I couldn't call you... I didn't want you to worry. I wish I had."

Douxie kissed the top of his head. "We're trying to prevent that now, love. I think we can do it with you're help."

Carter didn't move, didn't say anything for a long time. After a while he squeezed Douxie against him and said, "Just don't die, please. I don't want to remember how it really felt in that other timeline. I couldn't- I don't think I could handle it."

Hi! So what if when Jim uses the Khronosphere, Draal ends up getting his memories of the alternative timeline a couple of days after?

Oh, that's a nice one!

Draal is obviously the one who lacks the knowledge of too many events, so he's confused at first when some bizarre memories resurface. However, he doesn't question those as he somehow knows they are genuine.

The memories come to him after Draal learns that Toby is the Trollhunter, but before he challenges him to a battle. It leads to different dynamics than in the first timeline - Draal believes that Toby isn't worth the mantle, not because he is a human, but because there is someone (according to Draal's belief) who is way more competent but for some reason is a sidekick this time. Draal has no way to know that Jim knows about different timeline - he believes he's the only one with the knowledge. However, he is rather friendly with Jim and is just very critical of Toby, which actually surprises both Blinky and Vendel who have expected way worse reaction.

Jim figures out that Draal knows after some weird comments and they have a talk about everything. Draal isn't happy to learn that Jim actually passed the mantle to someone else as he finds it irresponsible and disrespectful, but he agrees to cooperate and help Jim with his mission (as Jim is his friend and brother-in-arms).

Draal trains Toby, much to the latter surprise, and also spars in secret with Jim (who still has Excalibur). The memories of the different timeline also make him attempt to reconnect with Nomura, who is initially highly suspicious but eventually starts to wonder if it is her chance to escape the Janus Order and start a new life (as she is sick and tired of serving Bular and risking her life non-stop). She becomes an inside spy and leaks the information about Strickler's plans. Nomura is discovered right before the Killahead Bridge battle and is nearly killed by Bular, but manages to escape. She participates in the battle but unfortunately gets sucked into the Darklands, so one of the missions becomes saving her too.

Because of his knowledge of the different timeline, Draal manages to escape the mind control and survives through all the battles. He becomes a prominent figure at the Trollmarket too after everything ends.

Awaken chapter three of my post RoTT fix-it Trollhunter! Strickler AU!

Strickler, reluctantly accompanied by Jim and Toby, heads down to Trollmarket to confront his Destiny and be judged by the Soothsayer.

With surprising results.

Not to mention has a run in with Draal that may have painted a target on his back...

Jim has difficulty dealing with everything.

[frwalkwithme]

not my usual content ik but I just started to rewatch this show with my brother so here's my Trollhunters main 3 designs

[yourneighbourhoodtraumatisedkids]

😭😭😭

Claire: Umm... Douxie?

Douxie: *looks up from book* Yeah?

Claire: I... I think I've turned into Jim.

Douxie: *raises eyebrow* You don't look like him. And... you don't certainly think like Jim does.

Claire: *groans* I made a Pintrest account a couple of days ago...

Douxie: *pales* W-What?

Claire: Yeah... Jim recommended it to me...

Douxie: Claire, we need to burn your phone. You do not want to to as far as Jim did.

Claire: WHAT?!

Darci: *pokes head into room* Hisirdoux Casperan, we are NOT burning Claire's phone, do we hear me?

Douxie: *whines* Why?

Zoe: *walks into room* Because we'll be drowning it.

Darci & Claire: NO WE ARE NOT!!!

Claire: Dios mio! I'm out of here.

(This actually happened 😭🤦‍♀️)
