Poplar: I just saw a TikTok of someone saying they're "never buying garlic again" after they discovered "this hack" and literally planted garlic in their backyard to grow more. Brother, do you think you just discovered agriculture???

Ash, planting seeds: [hacker voice] I'm in.

I've been thinking lately, somewhere in the multiverse there might be a version of Nightmare's gang that looks like this so naturally I had to bring it to life.

Imagine if you will: Horror Sans’ red eye just being a human eye that he snatched from Papyrus’ spaghetti bowl and popped into his socket as a joke, but the marinara dried in there and he hasn’t been able to get the eye out since

[Playing Scrabble]

Stretch: I’ll put my A down to make “A”.

Sans: I’ll add my T to your “A” to make “AT”.

Rus: I’ll add my R onto your “AT” to make “RAT”.

Poplar: I will add onto your “RAT” to make “BIOSTRATIGRAPHIC”.

Red: [flips the board]

Poplar to Ash: In Greek myths, people who die tragically sometimes get placed among the stars by the higher powers.

Sans, overhearing: Call that --

Sans: Call that a --

Ash: It’s okay, take your time.

Sans: ✨ Constellation prize ✨

Simply put, it’s a Poppy with a poppy, and both are beautiful <3

Critical thoughts that occur at two a.m.: Poplar’s smile, while radiant, doesn’t do enough to convey his feelings. String a spaghetti noodle between his braces. A smile on top of a smile

Poplar is here to wish you a happy Disability Pride Month <3 Be kind to yourself, your body and mind. Stay safe and know that you deserve the same love and respect as anyone else.

I’m having thoughts that I felt I ought to jot down. Now this isn't to say that I want all sorts of hard-hitting angst or whatnot in BHC's full release because I'm hoping that the game will be a generally relaxing and fun time. But I do so dearly hope that Poplar's representation of the disabled experience is a Real one. I hope the cane isn’t a “token” if that makes sense.

I hope we get to hear something, even something brief, about his journey -- how he tackles chronic pain, or a mention of a compromise he has to make so cooking or working will be easier (cause cooking while trying to stay steady on a cane can be rough, trust me). A symptom of his condition that no one talks about, or maybe even how he deflects or copes with ableism. Because mobility aids do help, but they don't cover everything. They are a visual indication of a story, but there is always more to know. A disabled person’s form of the mundane can be vastly different from abled people around them. 

I would love to see our community's experiences validated and acknowledged, even if in only a few lines of dialogue here and there or in the way the dates with Poplar go -- a sit-down date rather than going out. A pause in the conversation for mealtime medication. Something that we know and feel to be Real.

Hey, you know how 99% of the community decided Sans’ nickname for Papyrus would be “Papy”? New headcanon: Ash’s teasing nickname for Poplar is “Poppy”, and Poplar probably hates it XD

Ash: I need another word for water.

Stretch: Boneless ice.

Rus: Ocean sauce.

Poplar: Earth juice.

Ash: 

Ash: I understand those two doing it but...Bro, I thought I could trust you.

Last but not least, these quirky, lovable dorks <3 Let me hug them.

Y/N: Yeah, why?

Poplar: What about you, brother?

Ash: Yeah, sure.

Poplar: Great! Because I am not. You two go without me, and enjoy your date!

Ash: 

Y/N: Did he just -- ?

Rus: Guys, a snake bit Nox! What do I do?!

Poplar: Elevate and apply pressure!

Rus: [lifting the snake up into the air] APOLOGIZE OR ELSE!

Nox: Let me die.

A: Did I mention...oblivious?

P: Yes, multiple times. Why?

A: [sigh] Just making sure.

It can be hard sometimes to keep a good sense of self esteem when I’m not considered “normal” or “enough” by many standards. But I have a feeling Poplar wouldn’t want to see me putting myself down, so this is a gentle reminder for myself and my fellows with chronic ailments. You deserve unconditional love <3
