At what point do you think Bruce told Brandi about all the 'Trollstice' and 'The Bergens eating them' stuff? Do you think it was near the start of their relation ship or closer to current time? Maybe it slipped out at some point, like Bruce just casually mentioned it in conversation and Brandi was like 'Honey, WTF, that's not normal, that's a war crime.' OR maybe he still hasn't mentioned it at all to her?
I would say more towards the start of their relationship. Bruce just strikes me as someone who doesn’t like keeping secrets, and values honesty.
He kept it secret for a while, but as his relationship with Brandy grew, he started to be more open with not only her, but himself. It didn’t take long for him to feel comfortable enough to talk to her about it.
I’ll bet he just sat her down one night and told her everything, start to finish, about the Bergens, his brothers, everything. It was one of the crucial moments in their relationship that truly brought them closer together.
Brandy was horrified to say the least. She made him a bunch of comfort food after, and they watched cheesy Rom Coms till the sun came up. The next day, she got him in touch with the islands therapist/guru.
Have I mentioned their relationship is everything to me?
THIS LOOKS SO EPIC!!! You did an AMAZING job capturing this intense and dynamic scene🤯😭 We love when the feral man does feral stuff, it just brings me joy!!!
So so cool, thank you for all your kind words! So glad my story brings you so much joy!

So what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No one would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
(This animal, this animal)
I can't escape myself
(I can't escape myself)
So many times I've lied
(So many times I've lied)
But there's still rage inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can't control myself
So what if you can see the darkest side of me?
No one would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe it's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal

It’s official, I’ve been utterly sucked into this fic….
I was in two minds of posting this because I worried about the blue blood of all things! I honestly love this concept from @rydoesartandstuff
If it’s too much let me know but I was so taken by this scene it seemed a shame to cut this action from it! Anyway, I’m rather proud of this one. One thing I love as much as angst to draw is something dynamic and full of action because I love a challenge and I live for movement. I just hope I’ve done the scene justice.
That growlbeast I tell you was a b*tch to get right though! I had reference it and get a size ratio for it, in regards to the trolls so I could get it as accurate in that respect that i could! Hope this is okay as well *hides*
(Oh, and this song I’ve included , I constantly listened to as I planned and drew this pic out. It was a great source of inspiration for the scene!
Hope you like it @rydoesartandstuff
I’m gonna go hide now and catch up writing my ‘Rescue Me’ fic!
Congrats on making it to 100 chapters in your story "Great Decisions" and Happy Birthday. 🥳🎂🎉
AHHHH TYSM!!!
It’s still so crazy to me that we’re at 100 CHAPTERS!!! And still going! And y’all are still here, being so supportive AH!!! I can’t wait to keep sharing this story with you all as we get into the third movie, IM SO EXCITED!!!
And thanks for the birthday wish as well!💜
“Something black hidden under Hickory’s ginger hair,” huh? I know in your story, you said Hickory’s a Centaur, but could it be possible that he and his brother are still the Yodelers? 😏
Or… Has Yodeler blood! Our dear Hickory is half and half, so he’s got traits from both genres! As for the black in his hair… 😈 Perhaps his Yodeler traits showing through!
JD laughing because why not
don’t really care for his design if I’m being honest, definitely gonna dabble in some other stuff to get it right— might draw his brothers in the future
Sorry for infodumping about my special interest out of nowhere, you said a keyword and it activated my unskippable dialogue
I wonder how Branch will react if he runs into JD's adoptive dad (Peppy became a real dad to him), and learns more about why Peppy wanted to take him in. Still excited for that showdown where Peppy apologizes to both of them and John finally calls him "dad" 🫂🥹💚🧡 I'm sorry, I just can't leave such an idea without a happy moment 🫶🫶😭😭
Branch is definitely more cautious towards King Peppy after hearing about what happened, and doesn’t exactly trust him. He never had the same relationship with King Peppy the JD did. He’s more pissed off than anything, and tries to avoid the King to a certain extent, definitely holding a grudge. But I like to think, over time, he might let his guard down (King Peppy’s a likable fella) and might confront him about what really happened.
King Peppy and JD will have their moment. Eventually😋
Essa é a dinâmica deles antes ou depois da brozone eu n sei
Why does Branch still wear Floyd's vest
Good questions, considering Branch seems to despise his brother in this story. The answer?
Because he could never truly hate them. And still misses them.
As much as he emotionally distances himself from his brothers and everything about them, they’re still his brothers. And a part of him still misses them, still yearns to see them again, for them to come home. It’s a part of him he tries very hard to ignore.
But he can’t take off the vest. Floyd told him to wear it whenever he missed them. And he still does.
where you going old man
THE WAY I IMMEDIATELY GRINNED WHEN I SAW THIS
Omg he’s literally so cute😭 That poor little birthday man! I was reading “Sunrise on the Reaping”, and (SPOILERS) found out Haymitch’s bday was on reaping day, and was just like, that’s my boi John Dory right there😂 Luckily my birthday did not involve the ceremonial death of my friends and family, so like, L to those guys…
Also, immediately thought of this scene, real time footage of me and this art:
Happy Birthday @rydoesartandstuff !!! 🎉 🥳
And congrats on the 100th chapter!
Is this the third drawing I've made for this fic this week? Yes. Do I care? No.
Imma keep posting fanart of this fic till I drop!
I make art and write on AO3! Check it out @rytheoneandonly
