Late Night Talk


Branch entered Poppy's pod carrying her sleeping form. He carefully tucked her into bed and gave his fiancée a kiss on her forehead.

Branch: Sleep well, Poppy, I'll check on you again in the morning.

Poppy smiled in her sleep and snuggled into her bed sheets. Branch gave her another kiss before he headed to bed himself. A few hours later, Viva entered Poppy's pod and saw her little sister sleeping peacefully. She pulled up a chair and sat next to her bed.

Viva: Hey, sis, how are you holding up? I heard about what happened earlier, I hope everything's okay.

She carefully adjusted the bed sheets to make her more comfortable. But then she noticed a wound on Poppy's arm. It was pretty noticeable, it covered half of her arm.

Viva: That spider must've done a number on you...let me take care of that, okay, little sis?

With that, she left to get something careful not to disturb Poppy's peaceful slumber. A few minutes later, she returned, relieved to see that Poppy was still sleeping. She sat back down putting a basin with hot water on the floor. She carefully dipped a washcloth into the water and wrung it out.

Viva: You'll be okay, sis, as long as I'm around.

The Putt Putt queen carefully started dabbing Poppy's wound with the washcloth.

Viva: You're so funny sometimes, y'know? You never let anything stand in your way.

Poppy's face scrunched up but she didn't wake up. Viva carefully tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.

Viva: Y'know, you really remind me of Mom, Poppy. She was just like you, full of life, adventurous, and I guess you could say she was kind of reckless. Not that it's a bad thing, Poppy, it just means that you like to take chances. Dad's told me a lot about what you've accomplished, and I'm very proud of you. Though...I wish I could've been there to see it all...and see how much you've matured since you were born. I guess what I'm saying is...I kind of regret being afraid of the outside world.

A few minutes later, Viva carefully wrapped a bandage around Poppy's arm. Then she held her hand and carefully stroked it with her thumb.

Viva: Y'know I love you, Poppy, right? You're very strong and stubborn sometimes. But...you don't have to be strong all the time, it's okay to show some vulnerability sometimes. That's why you have a big sister, so she'll be strong for you when you need it.

It was getting pretty late and Viva looked outside for a moment before turning back to her slumbering sister. She carefully adjusted her bed sheets and gave her a kiss on her cheek.

Viva: Take it easy tomorrow, okay? I'll fill in all your duties, and I'll tell Branch to keep an eye on you. Sleep tight, baby sis.

Viva gave Poppy a hug careful not to wake her and left to go to bed knowing that her sweet little sister would be getting the care she needed the next day, even if she didn't know it.
