#John Dory Au concept art

Concept Art

Early 20s John Dory

(Horrible sketch, IK. It’s hard for me to draw trolls for some reason, but I’ll try and draw a better version of it.)

This is just a concept art for Time-Travel! JDs

For 20s JD, he looks more of a teenager as he was very underweight at the time despite being an adventurer. I feel like JD used to wear shoes but as time went on, he decided not to wear them any more.

For how he went grey, it’s basically like on and off type of thing, to the point where he created a lasting effect on him but as he grew older, he gotten better in hiding the long lasting effects of it.

It’s different for every troll when they turn grey. For John Dory, since he constantly went in and out of being grey, the color stayed a lot longer and faded slowly.

I haven't completed any new art concepts for the Techno!Branch AU yet, but I got some notes on how Branch ended up with the Pop Trolls.

So as I've mentioned before, his egg is somehow found on the Troll Tree, even though there was no river or any water source for it to be washed up on.

And according to this map, the nearest water source to Bergen Town is on the west, and the Techno Reef is on the north or northeast. So here's what I've come up with;

When Branch was still an egg, there was a massive storm on Techno Reef that caused the waves to go out of control. I'd wager it spread onto the other kingdoms nearby like Volcano Rock City, but it's not enough of a concern for them as it is for the Techno Trolls.

The currents underwater was going wild, and amidst the chaos, Branch's egg was somehow swept away. Whoever's in charge at the time probably wouldn't notice an egg going astray, too focused on getting the rest of the Trolls to safety from the storm.

Soon the egg was washed ashore on a random beach north to Bergen Town. How did it end up there?

I don't know, maybe it went through an adventure Disney's Dinosaurs style if any of y'all watched the movie (something like this : https://youtu.be/xeMV6gQto_s?si=kteSk28Q9lsG6ElS)

It's a kids series, anything can happen.

Anyway, the egg then ended up carried into Bergen Town, either by an unsuspecting Bergen just messing with a little ball thing he found on the edge of town and decide to throw it into the Troll Tree, or we can do a Cooper and have some bird drop it into the Tree.

Either way his egg ended up on the Tree regardless, nestled neatly on the base of the Tree, no crack in sight.

How that happened, I don't know, maybe Techno Troll eggs are resilient to attacks lol

The egg was then found by either John Dory or Grandma Rosiepuff (I'm betting on JD, though) and was brought back to their home 'cause maybe they thought it was a random Pop Troll egg that got lost and they didn't pay close attention to it.

It was only when the egg is in the house that they realized that this isn't a normal Troll egg.

Now I don't know for sure what Techno Troll eggs look like. The ones we've see onscreen are one for the Glitter Trolls (who are a part of Pop, so we can assume most Pop Troll eggs look like the ones shown), the Country Trolls, and the Funk Trolls. Best official reference I could find of the eggs is from this image; the one on the far left is, presumably, the Techno egg through its design alone.

If I didn't know any better, this is probably the official design for the Troll eggs. My initial headcanon is that Techno Troll eggs are more spherical in shape and has the same consistency of a goldfish egg.

But for the sake of simplicity, let's say the image above is the official egg design and leave it at that; the only thing important to note is that the eggs look different for each tribe.

Anyway, the bros realized the egg isn't normal, and it wasn't long until it started to shake, to their dawning horror.

The final eggshell fell off, and out came baby Branch in all his Techno glory.

And that's that! I'll be making more notes and headcanons in the future, but for now this is what I got so far.
