All posters + versions without text, if anyone needed them:)
Funny story - the poster with baby Donnie was originally intended for the second round against MNMC. But I was sick that day, so when the voting took place I was busy lying dead on my bed and waiting for the inevitable defeat
Pero ojo,cuando me nombran “porno” tambien pienso en ellos garchando…
reblog if you agree
but yet, you don’t know true satisfaction until you finally find that fanfiction
Suele pasar.
I’m sorry but it’s absolutely hilarious and yet adorable how the series handles Broppy’s relationship. First we get them traveling together as rivals (which was a bit more one- sided on Branch’s part) before slowing learning how to work together and to change for the other. Also it’s heavily implied Branch has an underline crush on Poppy. Then we get True Colors, and everyone thinks “okay they’re in love now”.
Some people/audience members are on board, others not so much. BUT THEN it turns out that the “I love you” they say to each other was a PLATONIC love confession. Like “you’re my friend, and I value you.” Which is still sweet, but was unexpected. (Though it does explain why the writers decided to put another platonic love confession scene between Bridget and Poppy. Yeah, I get it now)
So they just go through the journey as bffs who have feelings for each other but won’t say anything. And again, they learn how to work and grow together as a team and make the necessary changes to benefit the other. And then FINALLY we get the romantic love confession.
But it doesn’t stop there, oh no. Now we get adventure #3, this time with them as a full on couple. And they are actually really cute. Actually the film doesn’t focus that much on their relationship but we see hints of how they are as a couple.
Poppy is still all over the place but she’s much less in her own head and far more open to listening and being a good girlfriend.
Branch on the other hand is still occasionally getting exasperated by her energy but this time also has an appreciation for it. Also he learns to open up to her a little more and she’s there to listen and accept him with open arms. (Bonus points to their flirty dynamic because wow. They were adorable here.)
And it’s ONLY THEN (7 years after the first film) when they get their first on screen kiss.
Anyway. In conclusion: Trolls is the slowest slow burn I have ever seen in a Dreamworks trilogy.

Regular Headcanons:
Sero drives, no argument
Kirishima cannot focus on the road
Bakugou would blow the steering wheel into smithereens
Mina would swerve off the road
Jirou is honorary DJ
Shinshou would fall asleep in the middle of the highway
And Kaminari just can’t drive. He legally cannot.
Sero drives, but they use the Kirishima family van. Reasonable, seeing as its a van made for a lesbian couple and their countless daughters and one teenage son
Sero takes driver’s seat, Jirou as the passenger
Kaminari and Mina take the seats behind the two
And Bakugou and Kirishima sit in the back with Shinso in the large trunk with an air mat. His demands, not the other’s
They pack literally everything: snacks, pillows, air floaties, battery packs, flashlights, pads, swim gear, surfboards, literally everything
The idea of the road trip belonged to Mina, who wanted to go somewhere for Spring Break and wanted to bring her boys - plus Jirou - and most of them agreed instantly
Shinso and Bakugou were the hardest to convince, but thanks to Kaminari and Kirishima, they broke and ended up in a large van with Sero being an absolute mom
Sero: I will turn this MOTHER FUCKING car around, Denki Kaminari, if you don’t shUT THE FUCK UP!
Kaminari, near to tears: Y-yes, Ma’am.
It took a few hours for everyone to get used to one another, what with Bakugou yelling about the music and Sero’s driving style, but within the first four hours of the trip, they were all playing Punch Buggie, I Spy, and screaming songs at the top of their lungs
Kirishima likes to have Sero roll down the windows then stick his head out like a dog to scream: “BakuSquad Roadtrip 2019, Mother Fuckers!” It doesn’t take long before Kaminari is in on the action
Somehow, Shinso gets in on it, flipping off every large truck that passes by, and it isn’t too long before Sero is telling everyone to shut the fuck up again
1 AM stops at the nearest Denny’s are not uncommon during these trips, nor are random pullovers to get an aesthetic picture of the group by a sparkling lake or of Shinso flipping off a sign
Kaminari nearly kills everyone when they find a sign that says, “Hey teens, buckling up is totes yeet yo,” and doesn’t shut up about it for at least an hour
Whenever the squad finds a beach, they pull in and take the rest of the afternoon to swim, surf, and dive. Seo is a surprisingly good surfer, as is Kirishima, while Shinso would rather lie on the sand and risk sunburn. Bakugou likes going as far as the lifeguard will let him then diving as deep as he can go. Mina and Jirou just float in the water while Kaminari tries to get them wet.
A chicken fight breaks out quickly, Bakugou demanding Kirishima hold him as he shoves Kaminari off of Sero’s shoulders. This goes on for a few minutes before Shinso picks both Mina and Jirou up and yeets them at the boys
Mina posts on her Instagram every ten minutes with updates on Kaminari being a meme, Sero having road rage, Jirou being an e-girl, Bakugou being soft for Kirishima, and Shinso being iconic in the trunk
Once pulled over on the road, Shinso Fortine danced while singing, “Hey there, Demons, it’s me, ya boi”
The car at some point breaks down by the beach, and while Sero tries to fix it, the other dance of the top of the van or chase one another around with water guns
Sero, defeated, sits against the wheel and smokes a joint, much to the Mom Disappointment TM in Bakugou
Bakugou would die before he admits he loved the trip, but everyone knows he loved it. EVERYONE
By the end of the trip, the group is sunburned, their vocal cords stretched, sleep schedule ruined, and now overly aware of one another’s sleeping habits
Shippy Headcanons (KiribBaku, KamiShin, MinaJirou):
Kirishima and Bakugou cuddle when they go to sleep, shamelessly snuggling into one another before dozing off
Kirishima picks Bakugou up bridal style in a Denny’s and carries him around as he sings “Never Getting Rid Of Me” from the musical Waitress. Mina recorded it and it was the greatest thing the morning shift has ever seen
The two somehow end up singing “Lovefool” by The Cardigans - most likely because Kaminari insinuated Bakugou wasn’t man enough to sing the song with Kirishima. He proved him wrong, and damn, did he do it well
Bakugou finds a red shell covered in spikes while on another beach and gives it to Kirishima when they get back into the car. The redhead quickly puts it on a string and wears the necklace creation for the rest of the trip
Somewhere on Shinso’s social media, there is a video from his angle in the trunk of Sero driving and him saying, without any context, “Maybe Bakugou can drive this van, then it’d truly be a Kirishima car driven by a Kirishima, keep the legacy going,” followed by Mina and Kaminari dabbing
Kaminari sometimes joins Shinso in the trunk and they share music as they cuddle, but because Shinsho doesn’t sleep, he manages to keep Mina from taking a picture of it
Something similar to the KiriBaku Denny’s experience, Kaminari, circuited out, got onto a table and announce that his boyfriend was the hottest man in the room, to which Bakugou slammed his hands on the table and yelled, “have you SEEN MY BOYFRIEND?”
Shinso once chugged an entire Mountain Dew, burped like a dinosaur, and Kaminari stuck his head out the window and proceeded to cream how sexy Shinso was
Kaminari sits in the backseat with Shinso a couple of hours to watch Buzzfeed Unsolved together, eventually being joined by Bakgou and Kirishima. It turns into a weird double date thing in the back of the van
Whenever KiriBaku and KamiShin have their moments, Jirou will crawl into the back of the van with Mina and the two will cuddle while Sero gets control of the radio, turning on his bands that were clearly high when they wrote those songs
Mina borrows a few of Jirou’s tank tops every now and then, or Jirou takes Mina’s bikini tops when Sero refuses to turn on the AC because he doesn’t want to get more gas money for at least another couple of miles
Many SnapChat posts of Mina and Jirou with cute filters making cute faces at one another. There’s even a video of Jirou staying completely blank-faced as Mina tries to break her with different Kermit impressions
ok but if it was 2D I would lose my mind
