I present to y’all Whelp Jim, which may or may not be some foreshadowing for my fic. Honestly I love this way too much,I will prolly draw more of him this way. Him being a naughty little critter cracks me up,Blinky and Arrrgh would have their hands full.

My take on this phenomenon i keep seeing in Trollhunters fics I read

So there is this thing that in my opinion is quite popular in the fandom: characters going feral due to different circumstances (Jim and his Troll instincts type shit, Claire being possessed type shit) and honestly? Im disliking this soooo muuuuchhhhh

Me stumbling upon this plot move in fics gets me to a thought: am i the only one thinking getting a character act like a literal puppy is just kind of.. weird? Not only that it often just feels lazy and works as a shortcut to the culmination but it’s something on a level of infantilizing i guess. Basically romanticizing animalistic behavior but if the subject was HOT lmao . One could even find this problematic.

+ it just makes me sad when i find a fifth jlaire oneshot that makes James ask Claire to cuddle him awkwardly because his troll ass demands it on this particular day of the month and Claire goes all nonchalant and just does it like COME ON THIS IS NOT EVEN ROMANTIC AT THIS POINT!

This is just my superficial thoughts on this topic so if anyone has anything to say about this I’d like to maybe explore more about this and get to a real conclusion not just straight up hate stuff cuz it’s weird. Yeah 😔

UPDATE: OKAY GUYS I DID EXPLORE THANKS TO THE COMMENTS MORE AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT IM COOL WITH THE CONCEPT ITSELF i just hate when they make it specifically WEIRDLY, IMMATURILY PUPPY LIKE alright? Alright.

trollhunters au....

okie so like its with the tarrons, the trollhunters, steve(?), and douxie. basically douxie sends them back in their time in wizards but its not their time. its like a gone-bad au, like they don't exist. this is ALSO half-troll Jim... I just want to clarify... so Jim gets lost in the forest because they all somewhat got separated. Jim finds Bular when he's like hunting. like mid-eating someone. Bular sees jim, sees the eclipse armor, and is confused. because 1. Jim is a whelp, and 2. The amulet was destroyed. immediately though, Jim flees because he is NOTTTT dealing with that shit. Bular chases him.. claire gets thrown into trollmarket, but its not trollmarket. its the new home of the Gumm Gumms. she attempts to use her magic to get out of there, but is stopped by angor rot. angor rot who still has the shadow staff. he sees her use of magic and sees how she can do it without the staff. he brings her to Gunmar, and as it turns out, Jim is ALSO there with Bular, so Claire runs to her boyfriend of course. this makes the trolls even more confused because all of the humans are either dead or laborers (is that the word..???) why is a troll lovers with one???? Jim and Claire run, find the tarrons first, then they search for Steve and douxie. they all make a plan to go back but also to get the trolls off their backs and to free the humans this could be a fic, idk,,, ask me questions on it ig

Harbingers Plight

Chapter 9:

(This chapter might be a little shorter than normal,I did my best writing this fight scene.)

Toby POV-

I'm gonna die.

I looked over at Jim who was standing by Blinky and ARRRGH,then turned my focus back to Draal who was grinning with arrogance across the forge. The sound of cheering trolls came from overhead,

“Jim, I don’t know if I can do this; if I don’t come back, just know you’re my best friend and one of the most important people in the world to me.”

I watched Jim’s face soften looking down at me with his lake blue eyes,there was something in his gaze I didn’t understand. But the words he spoke next made the unease that had been making my limbs feel heavy fade.

“You got this Tobes,after you beat Draal we should get tacos. I still owe you for the last week, remember? Plus you’re the Trollhunter! Have more faith in yourself, remember everything you’ve learned up to this point.”

It was difficult to have the burden of being the first human Trollhunter. Sure I didn’t voice it but I had my doubts,why would some great responsibility fall on me? I’m just a fat braces wearing outcast…I live with my Nana and I don’t have much else going for me. (End first person pov)

Toby shook his head. He couldn’t think like this! He slapped his cheeks and gave a metal filled smile to his friends, “you’re right! I can do this,those tacos won’t eat themselves.”

He walked to the opposite of Draal across the not yet activated forge; Vendal slammed his staff down,silencing the chattering trolls.

“Gathered trollkind! The Trollhunter has laid a challenge before the son of his predecessor! And you shall all bear witness to the ensuing battle, which will be one for the ages... if not remarkably painful and short.” The last part quietly muttered, Vendal introduced both parties before the fight started.

Draal grinned at Toby who summoned his armor,the battle began,the Heroes Forges parts started grinding. The mechanisms screeched while moving,and Draal charged at him,becoming a rolling projectile towards him.

Jim watched intensely from the side,this was his first test and lesson for Toby. He had only pretended to react badly to Draal’s insult to Blinky,sure it did tick him off but he had to exaggerate. It was only by pushing Toby to duel Draal that he would feel a closer threat than Bular. Toby had to become stronger quickly,when he was the Trollhunter in his timeline he barely managed by the skin of his teeth at the start. By fighting Draal he would know what fighting was really like,it seems easy with a magic sword but you have to learn to use it.

Draal tumbled towards Toby,who turned around and threw the sword at the rolling blue troll; it tripped up the smooth rolling path. Toby thought he’d found a way to stop Draal and prepared to throw the sword again but was charged at. Caught off guard,the large troll had elbowed Toby in the stomach; a hollow bell-like thump echoed from the armor. The chestnut haired teen was bounced off the rock wall,the armor softening the blow slightly with a burst of turquoise magic.

Toby crashed to the ground and lay there with the wind knocked out of him. Draal approached him as he lay there,ready to strike a final blow,but of course not without gloating first.

“Is this really all Trollhunter? How pathetic,how can you protect Trollkind if you can’t even protect yourself. Consider your death a mercy.”

The blue stone fist rose to strike,but Draal stiffened as pain shot through him like electricity. Toby, who had been laying on the ground, pretended like he was still struggling to get his bearings; but when Draal was distracted giving his speech he gathered strength in his leg and kicked up.

“Third rule…go for the gronk-knucks!”

Toby pushed himself up from the ground while Draal struggled to stay up right. The ground below shifted as the Forge's mechanics changed form. Toby stabbed Daylight into the stone,the crevice opening to show giant metal gears and lava below. The teen realized that he had to move or he’d be left hanging vertically by his sword,so he ran. Draal shook off his body,feeling the tilting floor,clawed up the platform, chasing after his opponent.

Jim watched all this intensely from Blinky’s arms,when Toby had been knocked flat after hitting the wall he had wanted to run out to save his friend. But the scholarly troll told him he couldn’t interfere,it was good that he had held him back. It was hard for him to watch his best friend getting thrown around and beat up,Toby’s death was still too fresh in his mind. He had been working hard to forget it,burying himself in trying to change this timeline.

Toby was knocked back again by Draal who caught him and punched down,it was parried by the flat of the blade but the force made him stumble. He heard a gear behind him, he lost footing and ducked right as Draal was going in for another strike. The troll was caught off guard,and was slammed by the heavy metal axe that was released by the forge’s mechanism.

Draal let out a roar warped with a yell of surprise as he was sent flying,skidding off the platform. Toby gasped and ran over,relief flooding him when he saw that Draal was holding onto the side with one hand.

“Do it Trollhunter.” The troll's voice was hoarse with defeat and acceptance of death.

Toby gazed at him for a moment,rule number two stirring in his heart,he’d finish the fight his way. He leaned down and grabbed the one hand holding on and then offered his other to the free dangling one. When he pulled Draal up the trolls above began to boo him but Toby stood his ground. His green eyes fell on Jim who was grinning wildly and hugging Blinky with joy,their eyes met.

Jim gave him a thumbs up with both hands,Toby puffed his chest out with confidence. He won!

To celebrate they went to the Troll Pub,proud of Toby,who was still full of adrenaline. Jim was actually looking forward to being able to sit down and eat some troll food before going home. His changing body had caused him to feel hungry more often,and this would give him a chance to tell the others his account of the museum.

Blinky and ARRRGH sat down at a table,speaking Trollish to a passing troll that offered them glug. The same troll placed a metal sheet of salty niblets and an assortment of different minerals in front of them.

Toby curiously reached for a salty niblet and tossed it into his mouth, Blinky spoke up. “Young Jim,Master Tobias told me about the experience at the museum. Is this true?”

Jim,seated by ARRRGH, looked up with a mouthful of wood charcoal nugget. He nodded and swallowed it down to speak up, “Yes,the museum curator is a changeling.” Jim reached out and grabbed a clay niblet,continuing his words.

“There was also the Killahead bridge.” He mumbled the last part a little more quietly,he chewed the clay,feeling the crunch; he didn’t notice Blinky’s intense stare at him. He was busy mentally trying to plan for the likelihood that Enrique would be taken by goblins soon.

Toby had also shot him a weird look,how could Jim eat this stuff without changing face? The group discussed a little more before Blinky settled on speaking to Vendal.

The two human boys headed home together after saying goodbye.

Finished drawing of Jim with his tusk coming in,whelp development being more natural means his horns are still growing in. I love Jim’s nose btw,I think he has such a good face shape as a half-troll. There’s a song by foster the people called Pay the Man,that I’ve been listening to that made feel like drawing him with his teef.
