poppy
give me a character and i’ll give you 10+ headcannons: poppy calvery.
Tumblr media
o sonho inicial das mães calvery e tremblay eram que, na verdade, a poppy ficasse muito amiga da hanna e formassem uma amizade assim como elas tinham. mas... porém, contudo, desde que as crianças se conheceram nas férias de verão - antes da família calvery se mudar oficialmente de sacramento pra são francisco -, desde o início ficou claro que a conexão real existia entre a poppy e o ashton. desde seus primeiros dias juntos, ainda criancinhas, sempre andaram pra lá e pra cá juntos, e era com ele que a poppy queria fazer tudo.
por vários anos, a poppy escreveu contos no caderno dela (e algumas fanfics com teor duvidoso sobre casais que ela gostava em séries e livros), e a única pessoa de confiança que ela deixava ler tudo era o ashton. só inscreveu o seu primeiro conto em concurso da escola provavelmente por incentivo dele, então, ele tem muuuita influência em ela ter tomado coragem pra levar a escrita como carreira.
atualmente, tem três livros lançados - you deserve each other, hook line & sinker e beach read. embora não sejam nenhum best-seller, ela se tornou bem popular entre o nicho dos fãs de livros de comédia romântica, e o último ganhou bastante destaque no tiktok desde o seu lançamento.
em todos os livros, um hábito de poppy está presente: ela sempre coloca alguma piada interna ou cenário que só o ashton vai entender a origem, porque gosta da ideia de terem essas conexões e referências um com o outro que somente os dois poderiam compreender e entender a verdadeira graça.
por mais que seja extremamente romântica e acredite no amor verdadeiro, além de ganhar a vida escrevendo sobre isso, a vida amorosa de poppy é um desastre. somente teve dois relacionamentos que duraram mais que alguns meses. um foi durante o ensino médio, com o namorado de dois anos e meio - terminaram pela universidade e, naquela altura, ela estava dando graças a deus -, e o outro mais recentemente. ficou com seu último namorado sério durante quase dois anos, porém, acabaram a relação, estando há um ano e meio separados. não tem a menor pretensão de manter um relacionamento com ele de novo e, usualmente, acaba apenas usando o tinder ou encontros marcados por amigos em comum pra sair com outros caras.
poppy é o tipo de pessoa que faz uma playlist para absolutamente toda situação poss��vel em sua vida. é um hábito que criou durante a escrita de seu primeiro livro, quando descobriu que criar playlists de músicas sobre os personagens, cenários e o casal em si ajudaria muito, assim como para diversas emoções possíveis. nunca consegue se concentrar para escrever em seu computador sem que esteja usando fones de ouvido. a maior parte das músicas que escuta são pop, mas ela também gosta muito de indie.
sua relação com a família anda um pouco estremecida desde a descoberta de que sua mãe estava traindo o marido e, por alguma razão, ainda pediu que guardasse o seu segredo por não querer destruir a relação de tantos anos. embora poppy tenha concordado com o tempo, por imaginar que doeria mais em seu pai saber, e com a promessa de sua mãe de que seria a última vez, se sente constantemente culpada de não ter falado nada. nunca conversou com ninguém sobre tudo isso, e não fala mais com sua mãe da mesma forma.
adotou recentemente um cachorrinho de cor caramelo, que uma amiga resgatou e não tinha como cuidar em sua casa por questões de espaço e ter outros cães. ele é praticamente um filho pra poppy, que o nomeou de darcy em homenagem ao tão conhecido personagem de orgulho e preconceito, o seu livro favorito da escritora jane austen. como darcy é muito enérgico, frequentemente sai pra caminhar com ele no parque perto de seu edifício ou na praia.
gosta muito de ir em cinemas drive-in e, provavelmente, todos os seus amigos já foram arrastados ao menos uma vez para acompanhá-la, embora não veja algum problema em ir sozinha. as suas maratonas favoritas são as de filmes de romance, seu gênero favorito de cinema. seu filme favorito, por sinal, é when harry met sally, embora também ame la la land e sleeping with other people.
quando a questionam sobre o homem de seus sonhos, geralmente poppy dá uma descrição que qualquer um que os conhecesse poderia encaixar em ashton - e, na maioria das vezes, ela nem sequer se dá conta disso. muitas vezes, entretanto, ela já admitiu para as amigas mais próximas que queria alguém como o melhor amigo e que a tratasse da maneira que ele faz, embora nunca tenha levado a sério nem a ideia de algum dia ficarem juntos. parece muito fora da realidade, de tanto que ela é acostumada com a amizade - e, caso ele fosse querer algo, teria falado há muito tempo.

Episode 3: Love and Hate
Tumblr media
Oh shit.
Tumblr media
OH, SHIT--
NEW MIIS
As promised, I added Calvery, Dr. Heartfelt, Ms. Laughingstock, Sunny, Hoody Hans, and ManBearPig.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ROMANCE
We have our first crack ship of the game!
Tumblr media
Of course, I helped this poor lovestruck fool and gave him advice on how to woo Sunny using his best assets.
The man can hit those high notes.
Admittedly, I'm not sure how this will work out long-term seeing that they have opposite personalities (Skin-Taker is outgoing and Sunny is independent) and there are (unverified) claims in the TL community that opposite personalities don't make good couples, but I don't know. You can really never know what'll happen in this game. In any case, they currently seem very happy together.
Tumblr media
FRIENDSHIP
Percy wanted to "introduce" Poppy and Milo, but for some reason, they were deeply confused by each other, so they didn't become friends that time.
Tumblr media
Milo met up with Poppy again later, so they did eventually end up making friends.
Janice and Calvery are best friends?? I have no idea when this happened.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Percy and Skin-Taker had a MASSIVE fight. What it was about, I have no idea.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Thankfully, Janice intervened, and they made up.
Tumblr media
Poppy told me that he and Percy don't seem to be getting along that well. I told him that his and Percy's friendship was nothing special, and (surprisingly to me) he said that he wondered if there was a way for them to become closer, so I have hope for them.
Skin-Taker tried to make friends with Milo, but they didn't really hit it off. He asked me later if I thought he and Milo would make good friends, and I told him that their relationship wouldn't be anything special. (I did this for Milo's safety.)
I predict ManBearPig and Hans will become best friends. They've been each other's only friends for quite a while (two people tried to make friends with MBP and failed, and nobody has even bothered trying to make friends with Hans), and I always see them hanging out together.
Tumblr media
They're my broTP.
EVERYTHING ELSE
Basically everything is open now that I've accomplished most milestones in this game (add 10 Miis, solve a decent amount of problems, have a decent mix of males and females, have someone confess their love).
Tumblr media
Also, more rankings on the rankings board have been unlocked.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Orange is the popularity ranking (which is based on how many friends a Mii has), and green is the pampered ranking (which is based on how much attention I give a Mii). (Percy, Skin-Taker, and Horace are at the top because they're the ones always asking me to buy them shit--)
Oh! And another thing that has been unlocked is Quirky Questions!
Tumblr media
What is it with people asking me for grits?? Janice asked me for grits too last episode. Is CandleCove Island in the south???
Tumblr media
On the topic of food, Skin-Taker seems to have a problem with candy.
Tumblr media
I feel like Milo is turning into a finance bro. I gave him this snazzy jacket, and he's always talking into this cell phone I gave him, and one time he asked me to look into his head (this a normal Tomodachi Life occurrence btw), and he was thinking about graphs??
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Oh, he also asked me for hair dye btw, that's why his hair is green.)
Speaking of looking into people's heads, Calvery was pondering a cactus (?), and Ms. Laughingstock had no thoughts, head empty.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, short announcement: I left out a lot of less-interesting stuff relating to friendships and food, clothing, etc. that I give the Miis just because the huge blocks of text are kind of unsightly (and they're HUGE blocks of text now that I have so many Miis), so I'll start recording that information in separate logs. Also, like last time, bonus footage will be its own post, and that's probably going to be the usual for this series.
Anyway! Next episode, Sea-Dog, Salty Jojo, Banana King, Phillip Fly, Joe Shortlegs, and Susan Siren will join in on the drama. See you then!

Episode 2: The Stranger on the Roof
Welcome once again to CandleCove Island. I decided against adding more characters this time because Milo, Horace, and Skin-Taker haven't really met anyone yet, and I wanted to give them time to acclimate to their new environment. But I'm glad I didn't because I have the feeling a particular friendship wouldn't have formed if I did....
FRIENDSHIP
Poppy made friends with Horace.
Percy made friends with Skin-Taker.
Skin-Taker made friends with Horace.
Skin-Taker made friends with Janice.
Percy and Poppy had a minor fight (about what, I don't know), but they worked it out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Skin-Taker made friends with Poppy, and not only that, but 2 minutes after they met, they became best friends.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Let's see how long this lasts.
FOOD
Janice and Horace had some very specific cravings that day.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I couldn't actually give them those foods because the food store just opened and it only has about 20 items in stock total, so instead I gave Janice popcorn (which she didn't like) and Horace octopus (which he did like).
Speaking of being picky...
CLOTHING
Tumblr media
Wh... "jewel dress"??
Tumblr media
Buddy. This is THE most expensive clothing item in the game. Who do you think I am? (He didn't even ask nicely, geez!)
I did give him a different dress, but he wasn't quite satisfied with it.
Tumblr media
Maybe he wanted to show off to other pirates how much jewels and treasure he has? I don't know.
Janice, Horace, and Skin-Taker also asked for clothes, and I figured I'd give Poppy and Milo something as well so they wouldn't have to keep wearing the default clothes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
EVERYTHING ELSE
Milo asked for an interior, so I got him one.
Tumblr media
I don't think it suits him that well (it looks way too clean and stylish), but the interior store didn't have a lot of selection.
Also, I unfortunately can't change Horace's and Skin-Taker's hellish checkerboard interiors because I haven't made that much money in this game yet. Milo's interior alone cost me half my savings.
I gave Skin-Taker this thing called a "rent-a-cat coupon," so now a cat will come visit him sometimes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also gave Milo a punching bag so he could have a healthy outlet for his violent tendencies.
Tumblr media
Also, I don't have video evidence of this, but please believe me when I say Milo farted LOUDLY, MULTIPLE TIMES while I was scrolling through the apartments. He disgusts me.
I gave Horace and Skin-Taker catchphrases.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Everyone wanted to take baths that day for some reason? And asking me to give them bath sets?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Probably because of Milo's farty ass stinking up the apartment building and making everyone want to wash the smell off themselves...
Janice tried to sell me some octopus.
Tumblr media
Milo had a strange experience that day...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
...
...Well, that wraps up episode 2! Next episode, I'm throwing Calvery, Dr. Heartfelt, Ms. Laughingstock, Sunny, Hoody Hans, and ManBearPig into the fray! I'll post bonus footage as its own separate post because I think I'm at Tumblr's photo limit. See you next time!

Heyyyy 😼😼😼😼 after seeing that one detailed anon's post about the women in candle cove I'd like to see your take on the toxic masculinity in the male characters 😋 no need to rush
Yes yes, I never pass up an opportunity to overanalyze media 😈 I’m gonna use a narrow of definition of toxic masculinity just because if I didn’t, I’d be here all day since so many of the characters have toxic traits and are male. So toxic masculinity is basically the collection of traits associated with traditional male gender roles that are harmful both to the men that have it and to everyone else in society. These traits are
Emotion suppression
Violence and aggression
Self-reliance (e.g., not accepting help)
Competitiveness and feeling like you need to dominate others
Also, I’m only gonna go in-depth with the main characters. Plus Calvery. (He's like an unofficial main character to me)
PERCY
Why does Percy constantly threaten to pull out his weapons and threaten people whenever they do something he doesn’t want them to do? That’s right: because of toxic masculinity making him violent. Maybe he thinks that he could only get his way through violence and not through reasoning. He’s pretty alright otherwise. He doesn’t push down his emotions, clearly, with him always being obviously scared of everything, plus he’s not that competitive, because if he was, he would actually care about his rivalry with Milo.
POPPY
I said it before and I’ll say it again: he had absolutely no reason to skin Thade. Like, he did it to “avenge” Thade’s victims, but to actually be willing to tie a man down and take the time to cut off all his skin AND muscles AND organs, while he screams bloody murder the whole time and splatters him with blood, is insane behavior to me. Like, if Thade murdered all of Poppy’s family and friends or something, it would seem more understandable, but Thade has no connection to Poppy. It’s extreme violence for no reason.
Also, the whole idea of vengeance is built on dominance. Like, having something of yours taken away (or seemingly taken away) and then feeling like you need to one-up the person so you can restore your dignity and show you have more power. Although in this case, Poppy didn’t have anything taken away, which makes his desire to get revenge on Thade make him seem even more obsessed with being the most dominant man.
Also, he looks down on Percy for being cowardly, i.e. for showing his feelings, and for not caring about being macho. He straight up says Percy is an insult to pirates iirc.
And yeah, he has a powerful grudge against Skin-Taker, but that’s not for any machismo reason. I think it’s because Skin-Taker keeps coming after Janice and his crew, so I see this as unselfish and not having anything to do with being competitive or wanting to one-up him.
MILO
Ohhhhohoho. Do you want to talk about being overly competitive? Do I even need to explain how Milo is overly competitive? The little competition he has with Percy is so over-the-top it’s embarrassing, tbh. He tried to kill Percy because he was pissy he lost a boat race. And does Percy even care or is it totally one-sided? Embarrassing.
Also, he gives me the vibes of a misogynist, but there’s nothing on the wiki that could directly prove he’s a misogynist. Like, yes, he kills Sariah, but he also does the same to his all-male crew, so I’m not sure it was motivated by gender. HOWEVER, Milo hated his crewmates, but actually liked Sariah. And if he liked Sariah, it wouldn’t make sense for him to kill her, UNLESS he was a misogynist and thought her life had no value. In that case, to him, killing her might have made him sad, but he wouldn’t have seen it as that big of a deal because he would think women’s lives don’t have value and are disposable—it would be akin to euthanizing an animal. And he would be willing to do it and deal with the sadness if it benefited him in some way. (Also, thanks Nina for pointing this out to me because now I can be at peace knowing that I'm not reaching and that Milo can legitimately be interpreted as a misogynist in canon. In a way.)
CALVERY
Listen… canon Calvery is a misogynist. Hear me out. On his wiki page, it is implied that he doesn’t think Janice can handle being a pirate. He says that “‘a pirate ship is no place for children’”. This sounds like it makes sense. Janice is a young child, after all. HOWEVER, when it comes to Nathan (who is ALSO a young child. He’s only a few years older than Janice), he “admires his skill” and is seemingly alright with him rolling around cannons twice his size and shooting them (as he does in episode “Milo”). Like, SURE, Cal, keep pretending that Janice being a child is the reason you don’t think she can handle herself. We believe you /s
He also has a grudge against Horace, which could fall under the “obsessed with competition and dominance” aspect of toxic masculinity, but I think that’s understandable and not really that toxic seeing that Horace betrayed him and let him get imprisoned, and also, it’s not like this grudge takes over his life. Unlike the next character I will talk about.
HORACE
The lengths he goes to get back at Poppy are so disproportionate. The wiki mentions that he has some grudge against Poppy because Poppy sunk his ship years and years ago, and he is STILL hung up over it, which is why he’s always beefing with the Laughingstocks. Seriously beefing. It’s implied that he summoned Skin-Taker specifically to help him get back at Poppy. He basically wrought the greatest evil Candle Cove has ever seen into the world just because he’s pissy Poppy sunk his ship. And, like, that’s the epitome of fragile masculinity to me. Failing once in a small way, and feeling like “less of a man” for it, and then not being happy until you one-up whoever caused you to fail in the most over-the-top way possible.
SKIN-TAKER
Shockingly, he’s probably the most non-toxic of this list. Hear me out:
He listens to and comforts Sariah after he took her skin, plus he cries openly several times (in “Skin-Taker’s Day Off,” plus in a flash-forward in Come and Rip, although I think that part was removed from the wiki), showing that he isn’t emotionally unavailable.
He’s NICE to his enemies sometimes (like that time he showed up to Janice’s birthday party to give her a gift), which shows that he doesn’t feel like he always needs to be aggressive towards them.
He allows Horace and the Rubber Fishes to serve him, so he isn’t overly self-reliant.
He has traditionally feminine hobbies (sewing and hosting tea parties) and isn’t embarrassed by it, which shows he doesn't care about being macho, or with competing with other men about who’s the most manly.
So that’s my closing thought: Skin-Taker may be toxic in every other way, but he does NOT have toxic masculinity. Good night, everyone!
