(Classical Crest- Velvet's p.o.v)
Me and Poppy were currently teaching the Classical Trolls how to hug. I kinda wish that Poppy would accept that they don't hug, but Poppy is kinda stubborn so...yeah.
"Hello Classical Trolls, me and my amazing assistant, Velvet, are going to teach you the important things of hugs." Poppy told them.
"Let's start with this statue." I said as I gestured to a statue of a Troll.
"Who wants to try?" Poppy asked them.
Then one of my BFFs, Minuet Sonata put her hand up, "Oh I, Minuet Sonata. I'm a fast study, they said that it takes ten hours to master a craft, I learned the violin in four. I've also, with Velvet's help, have already mastered the Pop Troll art of scrapbooking, this should be no different."
"Well, you're a real go-getter, aren't you?" Poppy said.
"She not lying. She learned to scrapbook in two hours." I told her.
"In what language would you like me to confirm that? I speak seven-teen-thousand." she said confidently, "Actually, no. I got carried away there. It's seventeen." she corrected as she flew up to us.
"All right ! We might have ourselves a winner here, Trolls!" Poppy said excitedly, "Now, arms out."
"Like this?" Minuet asked as she held her arms a little to high in the air.
"Minuet, a little to high." I said in a gentle way.
"Is this right?" she asked as she held her arms too low.
"Now they're too low." Poppy told her.
"Oh, okay. Hang on." she said as she started to do a weird pose.
"Raise your right arm." Poppy instructed, "Raise your right arm. Raise your right arm. Your right arm, not your leg. Ugh."
"Is it right?" she asked as she was tangled up.
"No." I said as I untangled her.
(Pop Village)
We all looked at the market through the bushes as Poppy said, "Maybe, it'll help you guys to see a few more examples of the real thing?" she then jumped out of the bushes and yelled, "Surprise hug party!"
Everyone in the market then hugged each other, even new born Trolls.
"Now you try." I said to Dante and Minuet who were in front of us, "Just do what comes naturally to you."
"What comes naturally?"Dante asked das he faced Minuet," Well, I suppose we could keep your backs straight, like so. "
"That's it!" Poppy whispered excitedly.
"Yes, and, maybe we extend our arms, like this." Minuet said as she held her arms out.
"That does seem promising." Dante said as he did the same as Poppy squealed, "Then one arm in." he suddenly said as they both held an arm in.
"Oh, no." I sighed as I face-palmed.
"Wait." Poppy said unsurely.
"And perhaps if we lean into the hug?" Minuet suggested.
"Uh, guys." Poppy tried to say.
They then started to bow as they said, "We're doing it! We're hugging!"
(Back at Classical Crest)
Poppy drew two Trolls hugging on the blackboard and said, "Okay, let's try again."
"What's wrong, guys?" I asked as I saw the Classical Trolls looked really sad.
"Let's face it, you two." Dante groaned, "We will never hug successfully. We're inadequate."
"It seems hug time is just going to be an aspect of Trollstopia that we won't be apart of." Minuet said sadly.
"No, don't quit now." Poppy told them, "Trust me, when you finally get it a hug will make you feel better than you've ever felt before. Like, like."
"Can you give us a High C, Dante?" I asked.
"That I can do!" he said confidentially as he started to play the piano.
Poppy: Bring it in
Velvet: We know that hugging's kind new to you
Listen
Poppy, Velvet, (Poppy & Velvet): When you're feeling something good
Wanna share it with the neighbourhood
Yeah, you wanna spread the love
(Just so it with a hug, do it with a hug)
If you're low, feeling down
We can bring you around
(With some love and energy)
So, bring it in
We know that hugging's kinda new to you
Poppy then hugged Dante, I hugged Minuet and the Snack Pack hugged some other Classical Trolls.
(Just bring it in
I'm felling the love
I know you feel it too)
So, bring it in
"That. Was. Marvellous !" Dante said as we let them go.
"Thank you, Poppy, Velvet." Minuet said, "Thank you for opening our eyes to hugs."
"Let us not delay, Classical Trolls." Dante said, "Perhaps we could sneak in a few more before hug time is over?"
