King Peppy - Tumblr Posts
Screenshots from the fifth season episode “Stop the Presses.” Poppy and Branch want to show appreciation for trolls doing good deeds, but Laguna wants to expose their secret about a supposedly magic wishing well.
I adore Luna wearing a fedora.
It's my pleasure to announce that I'm going to be working with my new friend @gummygoatgalaxy on a trolls oc au! I'll be the braincell behind Asha and I'm sure you're all going to love her and her family!
Proud Father
Just King Peppy and his kiddos Viva, Asha, Lyreleaf, Poppy and Pippy
I met a fellow trolls fan who has a super cool Poppy sister oc, so im adding her to my oc Pippy's little world/au
Pippy belongs to me, Lyreleaf belongs to my bestie @phoofoz and Asha belongs to my new friend @kanzi-thel10n
(I'm always gonna include the ref in any major posts about Asha)
There's a thought that's been in my head since I created Asha.
What would Asha's reaction to finding out Peppy never told Poppy about her and Viva be?
Y'know when you hear something you don't like but instead of immediately lashing out in rage you're just...numb? Like you're angry but on the outside you look calm? Way too calm? Yeah. That's Asha's reaction. It'd kinda go like this:
*dry chuckle* "What do you mean he never told you about us? He didn't just assume we were dead...right?"
Her tone in the above dialogue is rather neutral. Too neutral. Menacingly neutral with a little bit of bite when she says "...right?". Asha prides herself in being unpredictable and unreadable. When she asks if Peppy assumed she and Viva died during the escape, that's code for "ain't no way he made the entire tribe believe we were dead for the past 20 years". She's angry that her tribe made a silent agreement to forget she and her older sister ever existed but she's trying not to show it. Her chuckling before speaking could be interpreted as a warning.
To add insult to injury, Asha was just 15 during the escape. She was a teenager. You bet she vividly remembers huddling in a corner of Hole N' Fun mumbling to herself that everything was fine and surely her dad was looking for her. Imagine finding out that not only your own father but your whole tribe found it easier to assume you were dead rather than at least hope you survived. In fact, it reminds me of a verse from Drift Away from SU.
"You keep on turning pages, for people who don't care,
People who don't care about you,
And still it takes you ages,
To see that no one's there,
See that no one's there,
See that no one's there,
Everyone's gone on without you"
So yeah. She doesn't take finding out that Poppy didn't know about her as well as Viva seems to.
I think I already say that I'm a sucker for doomed couples
So yeah, @casycloud090 Prince Peppy and young Thrash are today's menu.
Grandma Rosiepuff lives au
I had an idea for a trolls au in which Branch was raised by his parents until he was five (how old he was when shown in the movie(at least my headcannon for his age)) and he watched them get eaten in his place instead of his grandma(cuz I headcanon that Branch’s parents died either when he was just an infant/to young to remember or before he came out of his pod. More likely the former) so he now lives with his grandma but is still gray, and he still lives in his bunker. Mostly things are still the same, Branch still hates Creek, he still has a major crush on Poppy that he desperately tries to hide and deny if asked about, he’s still a ‘party pooper’ and he’s still majorly grumpy and paranoid. But he is shown to be more compassionate and the trollings love him and he helps out with his grandma(whenever Poppy isn’t around) and he’s gentle and kind toward the trollings. He can also be seen repairing stuff around his grandma’s pod since she’s so busy with the trollings to keep up with repairs, and if you want to find him 7 out of 10 times he’ll be seen under a pile of trollings or cooking with his grandma.
The best part I thought about this au is that because Branch’s grandma is still alive she and King Peppy are best friends. And she and King Peppy both TOTALLY ship Branch and Poppy and are constantly trying to get them together through different shenanigans. King Peppy likes Branch because he knows the real Branch is still there and he would be best for his princess and he knows branch will treat Poppy right and will be a great king. Even though King Peppy knows Poppy has a crush on Creek (and Branch) and he likes and trust Creek as well as any other troll he just has this bad dad feeling if Poppy and Creek get together and Creek becomes king, he won’t be the same troll as he was before kinghood. But King Peppy isn’t going to outwardly demand Poppy to fall in love with Branch, he still wants his princess to be happy and he wants her to fall in love with Branch for Branch not because King Peppy says so. For grandma Rosiepuff she loves Poppy like her own and she loves how Poppy is ALWAYS around(that’s why instead of normally living with his grandma Branch still lives in his bunker(now with extra provisions for both him and his grandma)) when she’s not planning a party or hanging out with her friends, or helping out other trolls. Rosiepuff loves that Poppy likes to help out with the children, help cook, help clean and just generally helps and cares about each and every troll and will do anything to help.
But yeah King Peppy and grandma Rosiepuff are CONSTANTLY trying to get Branch and Poppy together. They have tea every other thursday to discuss plans on how to get them together and fall in love with one another, and then try that plan the following week.
One of their favorite plans was at the 10 year bergan freedom celebration in which branch was forced to come (king’s orders) and during the toast to celebrate their freedom after both trolls drank from their designated cups Poppy went to give Branch a ritual hug and when he backed away he “accidently” fell causing Poppy to accidently fall on top of him, kissing him by accident. But when they went to pull away they couldn’t! They were stuck together by the lips! And they were stuck together like that for nearly 24 hours until they finally got the solution to safely unstick their lips from one another without hurting each other. Turns out that King Peppy and Rosiepuff put some type of glue, that is unnoticeable to the eye and only sticks when touched by the same glue on the other surface(does that make sense?), on the edge of both of their cups and then paid a little scuttlebug to trip Branch so that Poppy would fall and land on top of him, making them kiss. After that Branch and Poppy actively avoided one another for weeks because every time they saw the other they would feel their hearts race and faces heat up. It took a bit of persuasion from both King Peppy and Rosiepuff to get them talking again; well mostly Poppy talking and Branch not immediately running at the sight of the princess.
ANYWAY I just really like this idea for an au cuz I like the idea of the King and Branch’s grandma hanging out, cooing over potential grand trolls and plotting over how to get the two together while having casual tea parties.
I hope ya’ll like this late night ramble for a potential au.
