Poppy

Face-up artist(s):

Spiritdoll

Date of acquisition:

August 26, 2016

Provenance:

Brand new, from the Spiritdoll company

Reason for choice:

The body is so elegant and her face is so sweet. Plus her height matched really well with Reed's.

Best Points:

The joints are really nicely sculpted and aid in posing many ways. Her lines are so lovely and elegant. Just an incredibly lovely doll.

Worst Points:

Large bust makes her top heavy so she's harder to stand, it takes a bit of playing around with her bust and feet. She just doesn't seem very sturdy.

Poppy is a young woman living in a city somewhere up north who works at a vintage bike shop, matching people with bikes she thinks best suits them and test riding new arrivals around the city. She has a love of horror films new and old, fantasy novels, painting and sketching, and playing video games most of all. Her favorite hobbies are getting baked with Reed and playing video games. but she also really enjoys hiking.

Poppy and Reed had been best friends since the beginning of high school, and soon after graduating the two friends moved into an apartment together. They quickly became friends with benefits, sleeping with each other often enough that one would think they were in a relationship. One night after a roll in the hay, Reed confronted Poppy on how he felt about her, telling her he loves her and always has. Unfortunately, Poppy did not feel the same way about him and told him that she doesn't think of him that way. This awkward understanding between the two drove a bit of a rift between them, causing Reed to move out and find his own place and try spending time with other people while Poppy became more introverted and fell deeper into a depression. Reed, however, often visits Poppy. After their split, Poppy rarely left her house aside from going to work. The young man she had called best friend knew that something was wrong, and often showed up even when she was at work to help pick up her apartment and smoke a bowl with her when she came home. This occasionally ended up in sex and a guilty feeling in the both of their hearts, but they would silently move on from it and go about their days.

Poppy doesn't want to admit it, but she does feel something for Reed. But with all that had happened with her brother dying so suddenly and her attempting to get her life back together, the young woman believed that this handsome man she's known for years was simply saying that he loved her because he pitied her.

Maybe someday she'll learn...
