Summary
“I know what it’s like,” Branch started.
His voice was small and hesitant, unsure if there were any ears to hear. Maybe he looked like a fool, talking to himself. He didn’t care, he was no stranger to being an outcast. If there was even a small chance that John could hear him, he’d take it.
His voice gathered strength as he spoke. “I hid away for a long time, too. I was… scared. Of a lot of things. I didn’t want to need help. I was ashamed of who I was, of who I’d become.”
He reached out to hold one of the flowers, slightly shriveled and bent. Its tone of blue was hardly any brighter than his own as it died. He gave it a small, comforting smile, even though it wasn't really his brother.
I hurt them.
“I hurt people, too,” he admitted.It was a tale told by elders, carried from the tree. Forget-me-nots bloomed in the wake of a lost spirit, to guide their loved ones. Tethering the soul to the earth with each memory, it is said the blooms will brave even the harshest of conditions. Wherever the spirit weeps, flowers follow.

Summary
After the reunion show, BroZone has a chance to catch their breath and try to catch up with each other, but the more time Branch spends with his brothers, the more questions appear.
What were his parents’ names?
Why was he so much younger than his brothers?
Why didn’t his brothers ever come home?Why are they all still dreaming about Floyd’s death?
The BroZone legacy was built to cover up an insanely deep well of trauma, but once Branch uncovers that pit, he can’t stop until he hits the bottom.
This story is COMPLETE. New chapters will be posted M/W/F

Summary
Surviving in the wilderness really isn't all it's cracked up to be.
After being gone for a year, John Dory returns to the Troll Tree to find it completely empty. Save for one troll: His baby brother, Branch. Thinking the trolls and the rest of his family dead, he sets off once again to the Neverglade Trail, this time, with his baby brother in tow. Fueled by fear, guilt, and voices from the past he just can't seem to escape, he wonders if he made the right decision.
But he promised his brother he would never leave him again. So he wouldn't.
Besides, he was never known for his great decisions anyways.
(Based on the song "Great Decisions" by Judah & the Lion)
...
Or... I needed to write more John Dory and Branch ANGST, so here's my rewrite of canon, where John Dory goes back and raises Branch out in the wilderness, and other subsequent shenanigans. Let's see how this goes, shall we?

Summary
Hair care hadn't exactly been a priority since they’d dragged their half-conscious baby brother to the doctor to have his broken fingers set three days ago.

Summary
It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.
Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.
