Broppy but make it hadestown.

Hehe

I think the beautiful thing about the Broppy relationship is how they impact one another.

Branch’s impact on Poppy is the most obvious in the movies because he’s the one who teaches her to calm down and listen.

But what I think people overlook is the fact that despite her flaws, Poppy never gave up on Branch. Because as cute as they are now, there was a time when Branch was actually pretty cruel to her (ie. Putting her down, smashing her custom made invitations for him in front of her face, mocking her ideals, etc) and probably had been treating her like that for years before movie #1.

Everyone else had given up on him, basically deeming him as a lost cause, but Poppy never stopped trying. Yes Branch got on her nerves and hurt her feelings, and as far as she knew he would just throw her invitations away afterwards. Yet despite that she still put in the effort to make him custom invitations and genuinely want him to be there.

And even though he never dared express it, those efforts meant something to him.

Like we love Branch, but I don’t think we give Poppy enough credit for her role in Branch’s life. He was unkind (to put it lightly) to her for years, but despite that she never held any resentment towards him and still felt that he deserved to be happy. And by that incredible persistence, she worked her way into his heart.

See, Branch is a character who is completely used to tragedy and people he loves leaving in his life. So that’s partially why he pushed Poppy away and treated her so poorly. But despite that, Poppy was always THERE. She was with him when literally nobody else was. She was naive, optimistic and annoying, but she was there. Always putting the effort to be his friend, and the only one who had any sort of faith in him. He may have been isolated, but because of Poppy he was never truly alone. And even if it irked him, he still appreciated that.

And when somebody sticks with you literally no matter what, it’s not surprising that he fell more than a little bit in love.

As for Poppy, she’s slowly becoming aware that she can be a bit much sometimes. She always wants the best for her people but she doesn’t always know how to do that. Branch, even if originally rude about it, has always been able to give it to her straight. And even if he pretended not to care, he still had her back when it mattered the most. And after number one, it looks like he has her back more than ever while still being able to be the voice of reason. Which yes, Poppy definitely needs.

(Gah I wish I could put more pictures to elaborate my point but y’all get it.)

Anyway. They’re not perfect characters, but they are perfect for each other. Branch supports Poppy but gives it to her flat out. Meanwhile Poppy too supports Branch and is stubborn enough to stick by him, even when he’ll intentionally and/or unintentionally push her away. And that’s just gorgeous.

Finally being wanted

More self indulgence imagine thinking you would never be wanted for ANYONE for years till your one just keeps loving you, no matter what you think you are

[fanofeverything1489]

My favourite gag is Poppy thinking Branch couldn't do something and him being like, "Actually, I slayed"

A bit of my finest tomfoolery

Also kismet is that friend group that never takes anything seriously no I’m not taking any criticism on that

[fanofeverything1489]

I am alive!! Listen I am still here and still invested in these funny little guys I’ve just been insanely busy for the last month, BUT here’s a lil peace offering in the meantime

I’ve been working on that too one forever— was trying to combine the boy band off-print aesthetic with 60’s illustration vibes to make something that looked like an album cover

I don’t know if it worked but tons of experimentation happening here

ANYWAY enjoy Broppy

Branch with abandonment issues </3 I like to imagine Poppy wakes up to him holding her tight 24/7

[fanofeverything1489]

The fact that when the world went silent and grey, the first sound was her screaming his name.

Don’t mind me I’m so fucking emo abt them

[fanofeverything1489]

No matter when or where, I'll be there. ----------------------- This was supposed to be just a bunch of doodles...I dunno what happened.

I need to get better with colors and anatomy. Oh well! 乁{°〰°}ㄏ
