You can’t look me in the eye and tell me Chaz WOULDN’T own that fluffy pink robe after becoming a dad. Sorry its the law
Hickory and Chaz have a long history, having dated after meeting as bounty hunters. However, while the relationship was strong, it didn’t last too long. Unfortunately, Chaz had difficulty maintaining a healthy relationship, due to his lack of trust in others. Chaz was abandoned as a child, forced to raise himself. And growing up in a world that wasn’t very accepting to other forms of music, no family was really willing to take him. So, he grew up deceiving others to survive. He eventually became a bounty hunter, using his music to track down and allure his targets. It was a quick way to make money, to keep himself afloat.
Upon taking up a career as a bounty hunter, it put him in contact with the Yodel Brothers, where he meets Hickory. Hickory was bright eyed and cheerful, which caught Chaz’s attention. The two become friends, and eventually pursued a relationship. However, as things progressed, and Chaz found himself falling more and more for the hinderland troll, he started to become fearful. Fearful Hickory would leave him, that all of this was a farce just to use him, like others had done before. Well, that mentality led to him pushing Hickory away, and as a result, Hickory did leave.
And it wasn’t until after Hickory left did he realize his mistake. Did he realize he loved Hickory.
Jump to after the events of WT and the founding of Trollstopia. Hickory and Chaz meet once again. Things are tense, with Hickory still being heartbroken over Chaz pushing him away. Chaz isn’t sure what to do, how to prove to him he still cared for him, and even loved him. Chaz ends up seeking out Poppy, telling her the story and asking her what he should do. Poppy, eager to help any and all trolls, tells him to just explain everything to Hickory. Apologize, lay his heart out, show him that he trusts Hickory. And that’s what he does. Chaz pulls Hickory aside one day and just breaks down, telling him his whole history, how he’s never had anyone to care for him, and those who did only used him. How when he started to develop true feelings for Hickory, he became scared and started to push him away. He was so afraid of Hickory leaving him, that he caused it to happen himself.
Hickory is stunned at the display, and admittedly a bit nervous. But after listening, Hickory kneels down next to Chaz and pulls him into his chest. Chaz wasn’t alone anymore. He had him, he had the other bounty hunters, and he could have more if he wanted. He didn’t have to be alone, and he deserved love. Their friendship rekindled, and eventually, their relationship did as well.
In current day, Hickory and Dickory took up residence in Lonesome Flats, since Hickory discovered his love Country music. When he and Chaz got back together, Chaz eventually moved in with him, and the two end up getting married later down the line. A few years passed, and the two eventually had Miles. Miles is the light of their lives, and was absolutely spoiled rotten. Chaz wanted to give Miles everything he never had. A family, a home, a future.
The family remains super close, with Miles still living in Lonesome Flats. Though he did move out of his childhood home and into his own house down the road. Chaz bawled when he did, and had to be comforted by Hickory, assuring him he wasn’t going anywhere and he’s just down the street he’s gonna be okay please calm down.
This just turned into me explaining my own Chaz headcanons skdfjldskjflsdkf
Revamped my design for Hickory a bit, turned him into a whole ass fuzzy goat man. Still getting the hang of digital work, so bear with me.
