Hiii!! Ufff I don't know how to tell you that I love your take on Floyd. like some bad bad life decisions were taken (THAT SO!!! INTERESTING FOR HIM). Do you think he ever feels ashamed of himself when he looks at Branch's eyes, like "shit, this guy really believes in me" or "he doesn't even know everything I have done"? Like he has some really BIG "Love me Less by Max" vibes
They all really believe in his goodness which is worse
And OH he definitely feels so much shame and regret. I think a big part of why he fell as hard as he did was because he finally didn't have to be his brothers' mediator, and I guess at one point he forgot that he still needed to be the voice of reason for himself. His new band mates encouraging his reckless behavior didn't help. Honestly I personally think young Floyd was a very naive kid and very dependent on his older brothers but his strong empathy gave them all the impression that he was much more mature and independent than he really was...
So yeah... you can imagine that constantly partying, doing drugs and sleeping around wears someone down after a few years. I think Floyd also went gray like Branch (not for as long tho) and he broke up with the band wanting to go home badly, but he was also ashamed of showing his face after a number of years as a gray drug addict, so he kind of just ended up alone...
If we're sharing songs, I have to show you this one by Linkin Park because I think Floyd wrote it for Branch (and the rest of his family (and some parts also addressing himself)) while he was at that desperate and lonely period because I am also extremely emo

Feel like I need a list of my current Trolls AUs just to get em in line so here’s a guide for y’all as a treat :)
===
EAT OR BE EATEN - The Putt Putts have turned predators to prey, as lack of food has caused them to become desperate to eat. They lure Bergens and other large creatures, sentient or not, into the Hole in Fun to turn them to meat for their people. As such the Putt Putts have become entirely carnivorous and a touch more feral then normal.
This causes…complications when being reintroduced into modern society. (Post-band together main plot)
===
EXPLOSIVE KINGDOMS - The Putt Putts meet Creek, the supposed “last survivor” of the Pop Trolls that were separated from them during the cave in. Viva decides it’s time to fight back. No longer will they sit and wait. This is no mere culling. It’s an act of WAR! Their plan? Rig Bergentown to the nines with explosives, and cause it to crumble. No kingdom to rule means no people to rule over. Whoever is caught in the crossfire is none of their concern.
It’s a shame it happens a week before the Royal wedding between King Gristol and his beloved, Bridget. Now it’s up to Poppy and Branch to talk down their respective siblings from a potential genocide. (Takes place post-World Tour/pre-Band Together. Still ironing out timeline details)
===
BABY BIRDIE BRANCH - Clay returns to the Pod a month after his departure, aiming to reconcile and repair what he’s broken. He knows he made a mistake, but he’s ready and in a better headspace to try and fix it.
He didn’t expect to find Baby Branch alone and grey and oh so sad.
Clay and Branch are both lost in the cave in, causing Branch to become a Putt Putt Troll. While he loves his big brother, and the kingdom they’ve built, one thought stays clear in Branch’s mind.
The girl he saved that day…is she okay? (Takes place during Trolls 1)
===
THE ROYAL PARTY - The brothers succeed in their attempt at the Perfect Family Harmony and become closer then ever because of it. John Dory’s leadership is less opposed, he listens to his brothers, things are going well. Until the escape and cave in causes the loss off the Royal Family, save for baby Poppy.
Because of their power, the brothers are elected leaders, with John Dory as the head of their group. For some time, things are peaceful. The brothers do their best to handle the Pop Village in their own, inexperienced ways. John Dory is in charge, with Spruce as his right hand man, Floyd as the people person, Clay as Royal advisor, and Baby Branch as their adorable face. Things are good.
Until John Dory discovers the Pop String, and an idea forms.
What if they had all the Strings? What if they were in control of all music? What if he, the leader, the oh so perfect leader, showed the world just how good things could be under his control? His brothers don’t need to know what they’re doing is wrong. It’s his word, and as king, his word is law.
History repeats, after all. (Replaces World Tour)
Lemme know what y’all think and if u have any questions, send em in the ask box! :)

hi!! i hope you’re doing well!
i wanted to ask, have you ever heard of Vintage Story? it’s a bit like Minecraft in that it’s a resource harvesting/block based game, but that’s where the similarities end for the most part!
in the base game, it has metalworking and ore refining, mushroom foraging (and regular foraging in general), realistic biomes & temperature distribution, micro blocks and chiseling, clay working, realistic farming, grain grinding and bread baking with different grains, fermenting, the list goes on and on!
it’s one of my favorite games, it has so many amazing features and little things, you can easily get lost in it for hours!
i hope you have a good day!!
i had to dig for this ask because it took me so long to get around to checking it out, but i can confirm now that vintage story is woooonderful and fulfills my wiki-reading survival-game-obssesed blocky autism PERFECTLY
the active modding community is a also a Huge draw. i've got myself a lil kobold that i've already started giving lore :]
