Happy Tree Friends: 10 Years Later

Happy Tree Friends: 10 Years Later is a spinoff of Happy Tree Friends that takes place in 2028.

Synopsis
Following the release of Still Alive, the Happy Tree Friends series was put on its longest hiatus. With their career indefinitely over, the cast all went their separate ways to look for new jobs. Only Lumpy remained at Mondo studios to help gather funding to bring the show back.

After a decade of endless work, the studio had finally gained enough money for the show to begin production again. However, a lot changes in the span 10 years, and the characters we once knew are no exception. What have they been up to this whole time and how will it affect the show?

Lumpy
Lumpy is the only member of the HTF crew to stay with Mondo following the hiatus, as the show was the only successful thing he had in life. Because of this, he tried relentlessly to raise funding for the studio in order for his career to return. He soon worked his way up to CEO of Mondo Headquarters, unwittingly bringing the company further into debt. Years of attempts had corrupted him, making him even greedier and power-hungry. By the time the show restarted production, he would discreetly find ways to torture his former friends in order to maintain humor, using stupidity as a ruse to cover his tracks, pretty much like a more messed up Chris McLean from TDI.

Cuddles and Toothy
After the show's hiatus, Cuddles spiralled into boredom. Wanting to quench his thrill-seeking tendencies, he began watching Jackass and would start his own stunt series. Toothy decided to tag along with him as his cameraman and loyal assistant.

Giggles
Giggles gained a career as a model, quickly becoming aquainted to all the attention and glory she recieved. But this would soon take a toll on her. As years passed, her popularity declined. She eventually signed up for Tinder and dated with anyone she could get her paws on, never quite being able to satisfy her lust.

Petunia and Handy
Handy and Petunia were married happily and went on a tropical vacation for their honeymoon. Unfortunately, Handy would lose his legs in a shark attack. Since then, he has been restricted to a wheelchair, Petunia having to go everywhere he does, not that Handy seems to mind. Petunia, on the other hand, remains largely the same, except her OCD has intensified.

Nutty
Nutty worked his way up to be the propieter of a massive candy chain, owning an entire factory that produces sweet and sugary confections. He savored his life of luxury literally by gorging down and becoming noticeably fatter. This success wouldn't last, however, as he was later fired amidst allegations of sexual assault (on the candy).

Sniffles
Sniffles gained perhaps the most honest living of the cast. After leaving Mondo, he would gradually become one of the world's top leading scientists, inventing all sorts of revolutionary devices and serums, one in particular being a machine that brings the dead back to life. Sadly, due to a scandal, that machine was stolen from his lab and he has since sent the government to locate it, as it is dangerous in the wrong hands.

Flaky
Feeling liberated from all the chaos going on in Mondo studios, Flaky felt inner peace. She developed a zen garden in her backyard where she would meditate daily. As soon as she got word of the show's return, she attempted to board a flight to Argentina. At some point during the flight, however, she covered one of the bathrooms in puke and impaled several passengers with her quills, leading the plane to turn back and for her to be banned from the airport.

Pop, Cub and Luna
After the hiatus, Pop signed up as a frycook at a local burger joint. He no longer smokes, but now drinks beer to quell the depression he has gained from the time off the show. This aside, he went on a business trip to New Orleans, where he would meet a lovely bat and dark magician Luna, with whom he gained an intimate relationship. She ended up marrying him and following him home.

Cub has become quite a spoiled little delinquent with an unusually vulgar vocabulary. The neglect from his father has allowed him access to violent television and video games as well as a stash of erotic magazines under his bed. He may also have the hots for his stepmother.

Disco Bear
Disco Bear decided to hang up his disco shoes and just unwind. He gave away his stash of 70s memorabilia and used the money to travel the world, eventually settling in Polynesia to hang with the 'cute' women there.

Russell
Russell got himself a brand new ship and sailed across the world on a five-year voyage, bringing Disco Bear with him before dropping him off at Polynesia.

Mime
A year after leaving the sudio, Mime's vow of silence was lifted. He decided to move on from mimickry and become a full-on comedian. However, his jokes were horrendously unfunny and he decided to take another vow of silence, performing non-verbal acts of comedy instead. He also tried out ventriloquey, but found it pointless that he couldn't voice the puppets.

The Mole
The Mole moved to Paris, France, where he would gain a career as a professional artist. One of his paintings was displayed at the Louvre, but was stolen a short time later.

Lifty and Shifty
They are still a pair of theiving twins, but their kelptomania has become even more severe. They had robbed so many banks that they were able to gain the means for more widespread sprees. Now they are notorious drug dealers, traffickers and animal smugglers. They are most likely the suspects for the theft of Sniffles' life-reviving machine and the Mole's Louvre painting.

Flippy
Flippy went to counselling and finally put his PTSD to an end. He went home to relax but found himself unsatisfied with his mundane life. Inspired by the medals he recieved in the war, he signed up for Afghanistan for two years of service. After that, he returned home with a new and far more dangerous case of PTSD.

Splendid
Constantly staying up late, Splendid turned himself into a vigilante that prowls the night, becoming twice as dangerous as he was before due to his poor night vision and loud ruckuses he causes. By day, he is drowsy and cranky, only managing to keep awake with a mug of coffee.

Lammy
Proven clinically insane, Lammy was sent to an asylum but escaped with the help of a certain cucumber and has since been on the lamb, so to speak. The original Mr. Pickles has long decomposed and she constantly replaces him with other pickles that subsequently also go bad, occassionally taking a bite out of them. Being on the show again meant she would have to disguise herself on screen so as to not draw attention from the law.

Cro-Marmot
He died of a stroke, but nobody noticed because he's still frozen.
