Oh my god, Wicked, I'm absolutely grateful for these! And the hug! Thank you so much, and I will absolutely answer all of these! And don't be afraid to send too many, honestly being able to answer asks like these give me life and I kept thinking about this at work today. If you want to send in more, I'm more than happy to answer them (though don't feel pressured to do so either) ^^
There's going to be references to my favorite ship with Poppy in this (I can't bring myself to say who I ship her with. But you know exactly who I'm talking about Wicked-), and Roger and Jessica if they were her family since they'd be the closest she'd have to family (I'm not sure if I'll make it canon that Poppy is Roger's cousin, but I'll still mention them since it's fun). So we're in for a long post boys and girls.
And of course, for you, a tackle hug!

(Also the fact that you asked all those in the order of the rainbow just makes me smile, idk why, it just does ^^)
πŸ’‹: How affectionate are they with their friends? Their family? Their romantic partner(s) (if they have any)? Are they more physical or emotional when it comes to displaying affection? Why?
When it comes to family and friends, she's plenty affectionate with them. She'll hug them, hold their hand to comfort them and/or herself, etc. Her romantic partner gets all that times ten; She'll cuddle up to them, give them pet names (the classic ones, like sweetheart, honey, dear, darling, etc), the entire package. She loves her family, friends, and romantic partner, and she is not at all afraid to show it.
She absolutely loves PDA, and will not be ashamed to show others how much she loves her S/O, though she is more of a 'formal' affectionate. For example, she'll hold her partner's arm, give them a simple but sweet peck on his/her cheek, basically she may not be all over her S/O, but it's still obvious she loves them. Same goes for when they are alone together, though she's a bit more openly affectionate then. And it's not just physical, she'll get them a gift if she can afford it, tell them through words how much she loves them, help them with anything they need, etc. Basically she's down for all kinds of affection. She can't hide it when she's in love. (She'll hold herself back if her romantic partner wants her too though).
πŸ“™: What kind of subjects (of conversation, of discussion, in school or whatever) does your OC find interesting or engaging or something they can talk hours about? What kind of stuff do they just find fun?
What bores your OC to tears and they couldn't care less about? Why?
Plants and insects. She absolutely loves talking about them and what she knows. Even the more creepier facts, like how long it would take for a venus flytrap to digest a fly, or how much venom a black widow spider carries. She also loves talking about literature and history.
She absolutely does not want to hear any gossip or true crime. She has no interest in what celebrities or her neighbors are up to, and she doesn't want to hear about real life horrors in the world.
πŸ“€: How easy is it to shock your OC? To confuse them? To lie to them, to manipulate them? How are they with feelings of trust? Can your OC be trusted?
To shock Poppy? Not a whole lot. Especially if it's a scare type of shock. To confuse, lie, or manipulate her? That is also pretty easy unfortunately. If she loves someone, familial, platonic, or romantic, she'll trust them whole heartedly. She's not dumb or blind, she'll notice suspicious behavior, but she'll deny it and brush it off. It would take either someone forcing her to face the facts or the liar to do something huge like physically hurt her or someone she loves before she comes to terms with what's really going on. And even then, she'll spend some time wondering if she could have done anything different to change what happened, and pin the blame on herself.
Whether she's trustworthy? Oh absolutely. I would trust her with my own life if she was real. Even if she just sees it as common courtesy, she'll do whatever she can to help her loved ones out and keep them safe, even if it would be sacrificial in some way to herself.
🍐: What is your OC's mentality? Are they overall positive? Negative? A bit of both? Describe their thought patterns and reasoning behind their choice making!
It really depends. She'll be positive for other people, even if she has to force it, but with herself she's very negative. Some days, her whole mentality is just negative and it just winds up splashing on others. But there are days, especially as she gets better with herself, that she is just a ray of sunshine.
Poppy worries... Alot. She'll try to do her best, but then wonder if her best is good enough, she'll want to take a nice stroll out, but then wonder what could happen while she's out, etc. So she's constantly questioning herself. Her partner would be able to help her relax more, both because he reassures her, and because she trusts him and feels safe with him.
πŸ’™: What did your OC want to be when they grew up and why? Did they have any lifelong dreams or ambitions they never got to work on or are they currently achieving this dream? Has their life taken a very unexpected turn and put all these plans on hold for a while or have they given up on any dreams?
Honestly, I can see Poppy wanting to be a history teacher. When she learned the job title, she wanted to get a degree herself and teach others. Not to mention the fact that since she was made in the early 20'th century, that technically makes her a part of history, who better to teach the past then someone who was there to experience it? However since she was drawn for horror cartoons, she couldn't pursue that career choice. And now that her studio is shut down, she has to take whatever job she can get just so she won't be homeless, so her dream is on the back burner for now.
Another dream though, is to start a family of her own. Even though being a first time parent is daunting, Poppy still wants to have kids with her romantic partner. She wants the peaceful, tranquil life, away from the dangerous streets of downtown, with someone who loves her as true as she would love them. That hasn't been accomplished yet, though hopefully she'll achieve it someday.
πŸ†: Tea or coffee or hot chocolate? Sweet or spicy? Fruits or vegetables?
All three, but situational. Tea is when she needs to relax, coffee is when she needs to stay awake, and hot cocoa is reserved for holidays and special occasions (or if she just feels like spoiling herself). Side note, she'll also drink alcohol, but only rarely and in small increments, like on new years or during a wedding, something that's like a big celebration.
She'd honestly cry if she ate something spicy, and possibly hurl if it was spicy enough. So she'd prefer sweet.
She likes fruit just a little bit more than veggies. Though it's barely noticeable.
πŸ’—: What would your OC say is their best feature? Why? What do their friends/family/loved one(s)/people they know think is their best feature and why?
Poppy thinks her best feature are her ears. She does appreciate having good hearing, even if she does momentarily regret it when something loud starts up near her.
Roger (if he was Poppy's cousin) can't pick just one thing about her he thinks is her best feature. I doubt he can easily find flaws in anybody he likes, and even then he still focuses on the good parts. He can and will be anybodies hype man.
Jessica (is she was Poppy's in-law) would think her heart was her best feature. As a toon who faces plenty of judgment and harrasment for simply being drawn a certain way, she appreciates how understanding and compassionate Poppy is. However, Jessica also recognizes that that can be her biggest weakness as well for the reasons mentioned above.
I hope you like these answers! If you have any more asks I'm more than happy to answer them!
