“you don’t have to lie to me, i’ve loved you way before. you don’t have to forge memories when we can make real ones right here, right now. you, alive, is all i ever needed, all i want”

God I love this breakdown I didn't even know about the holiday special until I saw this post I didn't know that happened in the holiday special where he thought poppy was going to say something like that this explains way too much

So, I experienced some deju vu during this scene in Trolls Band Together:

John Dory grabs his backpack, says he's leaving (I'm done, YOLO, etc.), and then the last thing he says is "Goodbye Forever!", followed by Branch's distraught face, and the next thing Branch knows, all his brothers have left him and he never sees them again.

I was trying to figure out why that little snippet stuck with me, then it hit me:

Trolls Holiday in Harmony, when Branch is trying to figure out a gift for Poppy. He's worried about doing the wrong thing, disappointing her or freaking her out, and says "I CAN'T let that happen". He illustrates his point with Poppy packing a suitcase, and what does she say right before she runs off?

Really brings his abandonment issues into the light😢

I've seen a few comments of people being annoyed when Branch said to Poppy "aren't you going to leave me anyway", but they clearly don't understand how trauma affects people's mental and emotional state.

He knows Poppy loves him and doesn't actually believe she'd leave, but after a lifetime of being alone, even though he's happy and loved now, there's still that subconscious fear that he'll end up alone again. Poppy means everything to him, and he can't bear the thought of losing her too, especially as a result of something he's done (his grandma died to save him, and he believed his brothers leaving was his fault because he 'ruined everything' at the concert).

Sometimes this results in Branch trying to push Poppy away, which seems conflicting, yes, but again: trauma messes with your mind. He was already heartbroken and angry at his brothers, so he wasn't thinking clearly and blurted out his hidden main fear.

And when he says "everyone else [leaves me]" I hear "everyone in my life has left me so I must deserve to be alone, so you might as well leave me too."

And that's probably why Branch was so hesitant to be open with Poppy - 1. I might scare her away, and 2. why bother expressing my feelings to someone when I'll likely just lose them anyway. Plus he's still getting used to having someone to confide to in his life. Keeping emotions bottled up for years is a hard habit to get out of.

I think the manga just gave us a way to let Shirley gain her human form again

The manga goes out of its way to show how the fragment of favor physically affects the morphs around them and it also goes out of its way to saying this

This means that not only can Shirley possibly gain her human form back and a bit faster than what we expected but this also means another character could potentially come back to us as well

(For anyone who doesn't remember Douglas had a very kind senior that he looked up to named Finn, but because of his old leaders habits of blaming others for his mistakes the poor boy got disposed of, with this being the most likely outcome being his living doll got turned into a veil doll like Rum while Finn himself ended up becoming fuel for the shadows house)

If this theory ends up being true not only can Shirley gain her human form back a bit quicker or there could be another morph that could bring back other living dolls who lost their masters and heck other dolls whose Shadow Masters were unfairly disposed of could come back they just need to be rebuilt from the ground up or find their own identities

I mean after all the manga does make it clear Shirley never actually reunited with Rum after they saved Louise and Lou it could be possible that she still in the unification room if that's the case where is she now plus we also got to see her expelling soot in that tiny morph form for the first time ever

Plus after the most recent chapter monologue gave us all that crazy information it definitely feels like the Manga could be building up for Shirley and Rum to have a big moment.

After all everyone else has had a great moment where they've grown stronger in a way

Physical by

like John protecting Kate's honor,

Patrick increasing his power exponentially, or

Mentally by

Louise finally realizing Lou doesn't belong to her,

and Kate herself has had some pretty good moments.

So why have all this buildup and not have it be paid off by allowing Shirley to essentially exploit the system that we just got laid out before us

And since Christopher is using the morphs to bring back his master, and her power allows her to transform into other people or creatures just by wearing the switch she emits, she essentially has a stronger version of the morphs already given mimic power. If she did have a little bit of that fragment of favor not only could she grow her human form back a bit faster, her soot expulsion could be stronger. Allowing her to transform herself into Christopher if they ever need her to so that way she can learn more about his plans and relate this information back to her beloved Rum and Kate, after all Rum is the only one of Kate's classmates who never drank that coffee Barbara gave everyone during the party, (and it could be possible that she's there during the party and witnessing all of this) meaning the only real living doll not brainwashed is Rum. Which means we could have an actual moment where Rum and Shirley could finally shine

(and plus this would make up for the fact that these two were supposed to be the ones to save Louise and Lou, but instead they opted to give that moment to Anthony which almost got the two girls killed. Plus since Anthony and Rum have worked together, but it's obvious she doesn't trust him, we need to be on the lookout for this man. Considering the fact that he's perfectly fine with killing off people who are like him, I do not want him anywhere near Rum.) (But my previous post I've already proved how angry I am at him for doing that and how I want him to stay away from the little angel)

Branch before and after he starts his journey

(this is my first time doing online drawing rather than doing traditional pen and paper drawing so apologies if it looks really bad the story I'm writing will do a better job at explaining each of these gifts and items he's wearing and how he obtained them apologies again if this looks really bad)

Before his journey After his journey

Before Branch ever starts his journey because he's in the troll tree and pop village he wears more clothes that highlight this fact about him for example his skin is still like his brothers it's a more tealish blue than the regular blue he has and his eyes are still up Bright blue

He's wearing Floyd's vest

A special hair clip made by Kimset that's supposed to be a memorial clip from RosiePuff

A flower hair clip made by Viva

A special birthday crown made by his brother's Grandma and Poppy

The only part of his hair that is in blue is the strand that sticks out

However after he starts his journey he puts all of his special accessories back in his room as he doesn't want to lose them, his skin starts changing depending on the lighting and his emotional state because again he's a very moody troll, and instead they accessories surrounding him on the right are actually special gifts that he takes with him

Fingerless gloves that can turn into normal gloves by pulling the cover on top (was inspired by his brother John Dory to make these gloves)

Special goggles he got for his birthday but he tinkered with him a little bit to make them transition and night vision goggles

A dragonfly hair clip he got from Sky Toronto, (Sky knows about he's close relationship with Keith) so he got them special accessories when the boys were lost in the rain together

A special black leather jacket he made in memory of the two friends he made in Bergen Town Bridget and gristle (I'll talk about their connection in a future chapter)

Wears a special fishnet stocking he made doesn't even realize that Floyd has one that's similar because Floyd's are usually pinkish black instead of just black

Gifts during his personal world tour (specifically the accessory gifts the instrument gives will come later)

Rock troll nose ring

Country troll bandana

Techno troll glow sticks

Funk troll star earring

Classical troll handbag (a special storage kit, it was the classical trolls that taught him about wish stones and how to get one)

Bounty Hunter troll guitar pick (a special one made by the K-pop trolls but with the little bit of the other bounty Hunter magic inside of it)

Branch carries with him a special journal he made for this trip in order to help him remember the music that he's being introduced to, as he loves music so much he wants to bring them all together. He doesn't even realize the impact he has on other trolls because of his warmth, honesty, and kind-hearted nature

And don't even get me started with just how dangerous these gifts are not for branch but for others who try to harm him

FINALLY SOMEBODY GETS ME
