I had a hard time finding an image that's not a major spoiler so here's a cute little preview. This episode is super dialogue heavy and even the speech bubbles were jostling for space 😂 As always let me know your thoughts! I read every one of them even if I can't reply everyone 💕

Granny's whole explosion over Julri... Y'all have just glimpsed Patty as an old lady 🧓😤🤬💢. Just call me Pearl (or Kim... whatever her name really is 🤣)... Gotta give the nurses and docs a run for their money 🤣🤣🤣 Beautifully done as always! 🥰🥰

Nordorr

Episode 69 hehehe 😏 Ahh! Granny's got some explaining to do. I love another flower name in Poppy's family

Samantha Casey

I'm gonna need the rest of the story now, with a side of more Tora in glasses kthx ❤️

Keely

Poor Tora is probably gonna have a heart attack since poppy’s phone is dead

Jaki

THAT'S RIGHT GRANNY HE IS A SHIT BAG !

KityKato Studio

Omg on my way !!!!! 👁👄👁 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

Stacy Eldreth

Wow this had a lot of plot. And why would her address be changed unless to throw Tora away from getting to her until too late!

Trychtopus

How is the most vicious, homicidally capable person in Poppy's life also the most honest and genuine 😅❤

Leanne DuPree

Can't wait for the moment when tora finally finds poppy! I wonder what he'll do, how he'll react. ... *hopefully hug her tight then kiss her* 💋

Jordan Dennis

I can’t wait for poppy and Tora to finally come together again. I love their connection. Such a good episode to read! Great job Lilly!

Rdpz24

I was so ready for Tora to find Poppy in Moonbright this week!! Lol. Ugh! And this week's left me with some many more questions than I already had!! Safe to say Check mate Ms. Lily.. checkmate! ❤❤❤❤

Olivia Cheney

HIDDEN FAMILY TREE CONFIRMED OMG LILY THE SUSPENSE 😫 Also, quick question. Does Narin exist on earth? (I know it's not a real place) but is there an America, Britain, Japan etc. Or is this a completely AU? Cause there are some heavy japanese connections in this series but I realized they never call themselves Yakuza, only mafia, so I was curious.

Sakura Jane

My relationship with my Granny hits home recently. I have been busy working and traveling and such, my granny do anything to get me back in the city because she has separation anxiety ever since my grandfather passed away. Also, she has dementia so it’s dangerous for her to do everything on her own. It’s stressful 24/7 and you know, I can relate to granny and poppy. I love my granny to death but it’s hard for me too. Thank you lily for this. I felt better than ever💖 love you.

Tori Hopps

I’m really digging the information reveals in this episode! I got burnt out on theories during the hiatus so getting some concrete information is a breath of fresh air. I’m worried about if Poppy is going to get home safely, but I know Tora’s not about to let her out of his sight for long. The levels of growth in characters from this season is awesome. I feel like season 2 is making it really clear how much I didn’t know about ANYONE in season 1 and I’m delighted by it. I’m so content with the strings that are unraveling here – Poppy’s grandmother has some of her own stuff going on and I like the storyline’s direction of panning back to Moonbright. Ahhh there’s just so much here and so much to chew on as my English major heart likes to say and I am so here for it. Plus it can never be mentioned enough about the art quality. It’s getting better all the time!

Becks

What does granny know? I'm so curious! Definitely a lot of plot and I love it! I'm excited to see how Tora and Poppy react when they find each other. The poor man is so worried. It's adorable how she is wanting to make sure she gets into contact with him as well. Gil more than likely has something to do with that address change, seeing how he's targeting Poppy. I wonder and kind of hope that Tora runs into Julri too. Such a great episode and can't wait for more! Definitely looking forward to see how everything comes to head eventually. Will it finally encourage them to speak up about their feelings?

VintageNerd

Dang Granny……. Like I understand why she did it though……..but at her age I see she’s probably lonely and misses Poppy and wants her near so she can always be a few mins away…..but she also needs Poppy to breathe and discover who she is as a woman. Not gonna lie that scene made me a bit sad for both of them. And Tora hunny……you were literally this 🤏🏾 close… better luck next episode. And Jacob n Erdene…. I guess they do know what’s up after all……but this danger……what exactly is going on……and what is it that Grammy is hiding? Is Poppy’s mom alive and well after all? Is she living in moonbright?

Emily Basso

The amount of foreshadowing in this chapter is insane ☠️🤨👀

kinkajou

Damn gran! I can’t believe you’ve done this! Also we made it to the sexy number everyone happy 69 episode

PetitLikeMe

I'm excited on what will come next!!! Friday can't be here fast enough!

Emily Neilsen

Granny is amazing but also I am so worried about Poppy it’s not even funny

Han

He got dressed up for Granny! 😍

Maria E.

Omg, so much plot. I love plot, but I'm gonna be rolling until Tora finds his Poppy. I was really hoping he'd find her at the hospital or something. 😩 I'm kinda relieved Jacob and Erdene know the truth, though. If nothing else, to better have Poppy's back when shit starts going down. Edit for more thoughts... Okay, if Poppy's last name is Wilkes, and her Granny was her dad's mother, then why does she have a different last name. Did she get married again? Does Poppy have her mother's last name for some reason? I'm so confused. I also have a feeling that Granny is being threatened or blackmailed to get Poppy to move back home. My money is on it being Gil, because as of now nobody else would have that sort of motivation to get her gone. But who swapped her address in the system? Does Gil really have those sorts of connections? My little hamster wheel brain is going to fly off with all this spinning.

JasmiNails

Ok granny, time to spill all of your secrets. Granny’s got all of these tricks up her sleeve to keep herself from being found. Giving out fake names, swapping poppy’s address for a fake one- she’s in the mafia or is a spy or a famous celebrity haha. Thanks for the super long post Lily! Can’t wait to see everyone’s analysis 🧐

Sara Malfitano

Okay Granny, what shady shit are you hiding from Poppy? And who exactly changed Poppys address in the system?? The plot keeps thickening and I am so here for it! Man I'm never ready for the episode to end! Foreshadowing!!!!!! I am dying!!!

KityKato Studio

AAAAAHHHHHH Tora needs to find Poppy Asaaaap 🥲🥲🥲

Mimi Mesa

Tinfoil hat theory time: If poppy’s mama was in a clan, then granny might know and needs to tell her. The reason why granny might want poppy to stay out of narin city is so poppy doesn’t find her mom by accident or get involved with the clan (which she obvi already is, almost like fate). The reason why the addresses were switched was so that poppy’s mom, who if she is a big part of the clan, can hide her family if they ever become a target/if people are after poppy’s mom they won’t be able to find poppy and the dad (idk if poppy’s mom knows the her baby daddy died). Also what’s neat is that granny’s married name (or what I assume is from the grandpas last name) is fleur meaning flower, which is once again obvi a theme within the story (poppylan, rose clan, fleur, etc.) so might be even more implying that poppy’s family is more part of a clan business than just the mama. Bruhhh it’s getting so good I’m legit so excited 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Nicole Gatcomb

My money is on Poppy's mom is alive and a high ranking member of another clan.

Ashley H

My heart melted when Quincy said that Poppy was special to Tora. WE all know this to be true (and for a long time) but it feels special that the other characters are now with us on this! ❤️

Tabi

Just wow. Thank you so much for the super long episode. So much plot development and wonderful dialogue. So much wow. So many mysteries. So much anxiety. 😂😩 So much Feisty Granny and so much Professor Tora ✨💖✨

Lilydusk

So I've seen so many theories about what would happen if poppy's mom is in a clan. What I'd like to hear is why you think she's in one! Drop your reasons below!

noctiluca1101

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE I feel like this is going to be the start of getting answers to some questions. I LOVE all the dialogue and character development 🥰 and oh Granny, I've never wanted to be adopted by a fictional character so much 😂

Tara

Tora so close but yet so far!! I love the story arch Lily is building I wish I could fast pass and binge the whole season! I’m dying to know all the details!!!

emilyjean

Tora coming to the realization that Poppy’s address may have been altered...another anxiety-inducing cliffhanger. 😅😅😅 The heaviness and poignancy of Quincey’s pause before he says it’s never easy...I will be in my feelings until the next episode drops. Love how these quieter scenes that focus solely on an individual character say SO. DAMN. MUCH. Well done as always Lily! 💖💖💖 This 69 is one to remember. 😉

Desiree DeRouen

The ol’ obsession with the “Rose” hair pin her “Dad” gave her….. I think was originally Moms….& everyone’s obsession with flowers theme…. 🤷‍♀️

Crowley

Granny’s bunny shirt is straight thug level awesomeness.

Robin Lopez

Spot on as always! The suspense is killing me!!!! Quincy and the gang all maturing in the dinner... Gran... suspicious... Poppy catching on on Gran& calling her out! Tora looking so hot in glasses and turtleneck...hot dam!!!! And then he got the wrong info... find Poopy Tora protect you girl!

Erin S.

Props to Poppy for making sure all her peeps are read in before they all moved forward, for everyone's safety. Also, we all totally called Erdene's dad having some kind of clan ties, but glad to know her dad isn't some rival clan leader or something! They think Gil doesn't know anything, but I have a feeling Gil knows more than they think he does, which doesn't bode well for anyone. But holy crap, Pops was with Julri for 6 years?!?!?!?!!! No wonder it threw her for such a loop! Damn girl, but I'm so glad she's taking some Poppy time so Tora isn't just a rebound. And Quincey calling Tora OUT, "Poppy is special to someone who would rather die than admit it. No prizes for guessing who." I love that Granny checked into the hospital essentially under an alias! So her name is actuality Pearl, but her maiden name was Kim? That was a little confusing, but that kinda makes sense, since it's causing some confusion for poor Tora later on too. So wait, who already brought Granny flowers and the fruit bowl?? We saw at the end, it wasn't Tora because he had the wrong name. And it certainly wouldn't be Julri, since Granny have us her opinion on him (and she's 100% correct). I loved Granny being a salty old woman, "they're making me stay for observation because *old people*." Sounds like my Papa! 🤣 He complains Florida is full of old people all the time 🤣 Also, low blow Granny. That's some underhanded fighting trying to get Poppy home with her. The theories that Poppy's mother having some kind of clan ties is gaining traction, in my opinion. What could Granny be still keeping from Poppy, which would make sense, since her mom's been MIA for years. But yeah, Granny, ya not subtle. Loving Poppy laying down the law on her though. "I'm happy in the city, please let me grow up on my own!" I'm glad they made up before Poppy left, but that makes me nervous about Granny's safety!! But back to Tora at the wrong address, Gyu's gonna get so much flack from Tora for getting him bad Intel. But how will he find Poppy if her phone is dead?? Hopefully he'll find her at the hospital or maybe walking home to Granny's, since she doesn't have a car there. Ahhhh, I can't wait for more info and hopefully a Poppy/Tora reunion next week!!!!!

LouCas27

I read that way too fast! I need to go back and digest every detail…hmmmm🕵🏻‍♀️🕵🏻‍♀️🕵🏻‍♀️

Hannah

Okay so here's a theory maybe poppys mom is a clan leader and that's why her granny is trying to keep her away from the city and almost hide her in this small town now even crazier theory what if quincy and poppy have the same mom I know crazy but think about it his mom is another big clan leader and he looks just like his dad we've never seen his mom and we really only saw poppys mom once and I don't even think we saw her face so I honestly think this could be possible update: I want to add to this maybe they don't have the same mom but maybe they are related some how like friends or even sisters I just feel like they both have these moms who we've never seen and are both so mysterious

Ashley H

What if Poppy’s dad was the one in a clan and the reason Poppy’s mom left was because she found out and didn’t want to be in that lifestyle. And Poppy’s dad refused to give up custody of Poppy and her mom didn’t really have any other choice other than comply (with all those clan resources behind him). Then she continued to stay away for fear of clan repercussions.

Rodi

Okay I’m definitely on board with the idea that Poppy’s family may have clan connections. The fact that her granny would go that far just to get Poppy to consider moving back (because that was extreme for it to just be granny missing her), makes me feel like something is up.

Asia Neal-Allen

It's getting more apparent that Poppy family has some gang connections. & it's gotta be on the moms side. When will we learn more!! We need answers!!!

Escott

Questions (if they arent spoilers) 1. Is Granny Poppy's maternal or paternal grandmother? 2. Is there a backstory or reason for the title of the comic to be midnight poppyland?

Alessandra

I’ve always had this inkling that there was a nefarious reason behind why Poppy’s mom left. Maybe her mother is Clan affiliated and either she left her family to protect them, was given an ultimatum, or she chose the Clan business over her family. Pretty sure granny knows everything, but kept it secret to protect Poppy. And maybe that’s the truth she’s withholding? Also, why would Poppy’s address be masked? Was it in order to protect her so their family’s enemies couldn’t find them? Maybe Poppy is a lost clan princess! 😆 I am curious if granny did what she did because she knew Poppy is in danger and had to bring her home. I’m also curious why all of sudden there’s this impending danger to Poppy? What did Quincy and Tora find out or get wind of? Is she truly in danger and how do the clans know about her? Maybe this is also the reason why granny didn’t want Poppy moving to the city. But destiny always has a way of finding people and maybe it’s fate that Poppy got involved with Tora. Orrr I can totally be off and we have no idea where this is leading to. Lol! I just know that if Poppy is truly in danger, I’m not worried cause she has Tora and Quincy. 💪🏼

Shauna

I believe Poppys mom is mafia related. With all the secrecy and such, with her suddenly leaving and the name changes now too. And her look in the one picture you see of her....serious Mafia vibes there.

Mary

I really enjoyed this episode. Well done. I can’t wait for Tora and Poppy to find each other in Moonbright. I also like the flash backs that give the reader a little more perspective each time it’s done. Lily you are so talented. What a wonderful gift. Thanks for sharing with us. ♥️

Bukgirl

The length poppy went to make her grandma was safe before to the city so an act of love. I mean she really wanted a piece of mind that she was taken of care and that was good choice for her to leave. Granny has game trying to bring her back

Ms Millennial Pink

So granny is Poppy's mother's mother? I'd always assumed she was her father's mother. But if so, then how come they have different surnames? (Fleur v Wilkes) 🤔 Also.... Fleur means flower... Poppy is a flower name... That brooche was flower shaped... we've just seen those rose tatted gang guys... Who Tora seemed to have issues with... Something's up here

Leonie Raines

Loved it! Curious as to who Granny was talking to after Poppy left... Nice to know what I thought about the family leaving the house is the same thing Tora thought. 🙂 Excited to see when he catches up with Poppy. And wondering what are the suspicions Tora and Quincey have that will come to light soon. On a side note: Quincey is still hella hot this episode!😍🔥

lily_ofthevalley

The address is likely fake/swapped. PLUS granny uses a maiden name she hasn't used in years, at the hospital? Yeah...I see you granny 🤨🤔

sara bedard

I love that Tora is being a good man.

Meghan Richardson

Theory time! Granny has always used her maiden name because her daughter (Poppy’s mom) has some connection to the mafia. When the mom left she must have told Granny everything and made sure no one could track her down, which is why Granny uses her maiden name and the address is swapped. Poppy doesn’t know this because Granny never told her the truth about it, so Poppy just assumes she’s using her married name all this time. I think the broach belonged to Poppy’s mom but her dad told her it was his because she was young when he died and it was probably too painful to bring up her mom. I think the mom was in hiding the whole time she was with Poppy’s dad but was discovered so she had to abandon Poppy to keep her safe. Maybe Poppy’s mom’s first love was in the mafia and he was super possessive so when she left him he tracked her down. It took years but he eventually found her and forced her to go back with him. Maybe she agreed to go with him if he would leave Poppy and Poppy’s dad alone. BUT now with Poppy in the city maybe the mom found out she was hanging with Tora and the Balthuman clan so she went to Granny and told her to convince Poppy to go back to Moonbright and stay away from Narin and Tora. Crazy theory, but I’m sticking to it until Lily proves me wrong, lol. Great episode, I’m so excited to hear more theories from everyone and watch how this story unfolds.

Moonhair

Ohh, this is one of my favourite episodes so far! So much to process here, new threads emerging, theories smashed, new theories, character development, yaay! I love the dynamics between granny and Poppy, how she calls out on her bshit, firmly but with kindness and love.😅 And I love, love, love the glimpse into the relationshop between Tora and Jacob through their little flashback interaction. I mean Tora's speech bubble is super threatening and Jacob still dares to complain about the crumbs ☺ And Quincey showing yet another side of himself!💚 While I'm soo happy that there is no hint of a love triangle, and it's an absolute treat to follow the relationship growing between Poppy and Tora, I could totally see Poppy falling in love with Quincey if circumstances were different.

Jamie Dubiak

I can't wait to see Poppy's reaction to Tora's proffessor look. I figure she's either going to love it or tease him mercilessly, probably both.

Cici MB

Omg. Is it next Friday yet??

Keely

Poppy’s family has to be involved somehow and it makes sense for it to trace to her mom since she’s been gone. I’m glad Quincey is concerned for her as well. Tora is probably really stressed and worried for his hamster and Quincey knows Poppy is important and special to Tora. Hope we can also soon dive into what had Tora choked up from what gyu discussed earlier in season one and more of what Toras past contains because it’s obvious already that it’s tragic and full of abuse due to Vincent. I can say it’s a safe bet to say Quincey doesn’t know how cruel his father has been to his basically brother. Oh and I’m still convinced Tora and Goliath are related.

ladylibris

Patreon ate my post, so I'm reposting! OOooooh….do I have some thoughts! First, my librarian self immediately started doing some digging on color symbolism because I found the use of color super interesting in this episode! 🤔🤔🤔 Here’s what I found: Blue: Integrity, feminine energy, and purity. Yellow: developing knowledge and centering the mind, also sunshine and happiness. Both of these colors are tied to Poppy. Orange: knowledge and good fortune. Black: wisdom and darkness. These colors tied together = clan truthiness time. Quincey is sharing (some of) his knowledge with Erdene and Jacob, while also ascertaining how much they know. Erdene shares a truth bomb when she shares that her father has clan dealings. All of this - all of them - Tora, Quincey, Poppy, Erdene, Gil are interwoven in a web that is probably immense. Adorable aside: EVERYONE knows the depth of Tora’s feelings for Poppy EXCEPT Poppy. 🥰🥰🥰 Also? “He Who Shall Not Be Named.” VoldeTorte. 😆😆😆 In this episode, Quincey has dropped his playful joie de vivre side and clues us in that he deeply understands *everything.* I really want to know who Quicey is thinking of when he’s talking about Poppy’s sacrifice. Should she sacrifice herself, her integrity, or someone else? Who has Quincey sacrificed? Or is he thinking of the sacrifices Tora has made? Or is he thinking of the sacrifices to come? There are so many sacrifices in this story. 😞 We also learn that Erdene also understands what Poppy has been dealing with. It shows that even though Poppy has been holding everything really close to her chest and trying to deal with things on her own, her friends know and understand what she’s been going through. Oh, my 💙. Are Erdene and Jacob still in the dark regarding Gil? I think so? Random thoughts: Fleur = French for flower. Grandma Fleur. Poppy = a type of flower. Flower shaped pin… The orange and black color combo is popping up again in the hospital, more truthiness on the horizon. Juxtaposition between Granny’s top (winter scene) and Poppy’s dress (spring blooming) is an interesting juxtaposition between both their ages and their life experiences. Granny is a massive sass machine and expert manipulator. I adore her. Also? Anyone who calls Julri a “vile little shitbag” and a “little weasel” is aces in my book. I cannot wait till she meets Tora. Notice that the color yellow also surrounds Granny. Family ties! Poppy knows her Granny very, very well - and her fixing all of the furniture before she moved proves it. However, savvy Granny finds the one wobbly piece of furniture to accidentally on purpose take a tumble. I get the feeling that there is some urgency as to why Granny wants Poppy out of the Narin City...she must have some clue that Poppy has gained the attention of the clan? “It’s not as straightforward as you think.” Welcome to the bend in the road, Pops. Final color thought: White = color of mourning. Both the blanket on Granny’s lap and her top are white. Maybe Granny is mourning for Poppy’s upcoming loss of innocence...or whatever Poppy is going to lose and/or face when Granny shares whatever secret that she’s been holding onto. Also? Granny Pearl...pearls are both white and black. This week has been brought to you by many symbolic colors, a metric buttload of foreshadowing, and a few truthbombs that are about to land on our Poppy. Buckle up, buckaroos! 🎢🎢🎢

Escott

How much time had passed since the 1st episode happened?

Ms Millennial Pink

Someone's gotta ask the big questions tho: who's taking care of Earnest while granny is in the hospital?! 🥺 - sorry, pet mom alert

Mary

Heres a thought. . . Maybe none of Poppys family are in or were in the mafia. Maybe they are running or hiding from the mafia because they were witnesses to criminal acts and went into witness protection. Maybe mom left because she put the family at to much risk. This would explain the name changes and the secrets.

Sarah Hernandez

Once again, I don't trust anybody right now, not even the cat Poppy rescued from way I'm the beginning

Darla (Tora’s THOT)

Yup I was right, I was absolutely horny this episode!!! Because granny be looking—— JUST KIDDINGGGGGGGG MAINLY WHEN HUSBANDO TORA looking so cuuuuuuteeeee all worried and already got to hospital before poppy!!! My heart ♥️ 😭😭😭 k horny for erdene as well tho 👀 (don’t judge me) ok but granny- I wanna year what secret you have to say. I think whatever it is, poppy should know. But like I wants the tea too lol but anyway- granny’s name be all mamasan like madame pearl? Mrs Kim fleur? She fancy af!!! I support her 100% bashing Julri, grandmas always can tell who is the right one dude...I’m speaking from experience. But anyway- I’m too exhausted I don’t have more to say rn!

Marine Belluet

So Poppy will be alone in her grandma house, charging her phone and finally bending those texts to Tora. While Tora is wandering around town looking for her or her grandma... Will we see Tora in grandma house next week?!!! 🤔 I'll take a wild guess and say yes ... But it's mainly boy guts wanting them to have some time alone 😁💕

noonanoonayay

This was a good episode to build up to next week's! I'm just really anticipating whether or not Poppy is going to run into Julri 😰 Like Dene stated, it makes us realize how much Poppy had been going through and she hasn't really quite sorted out her feelings I don't think. I'm hoping Tora runs into Poppy before she does with Julri and keeps her safe alone in her grandma's house 🤭 But in all seriousness, I'm dying to know Grandma's secret and what Dene has been holding back from Poppy

Debbie

So did anyone catch Quincey’s comment to Erdene and Jacob about everything coming to a head soon? So excited! Everything is coming to a head soon! Theories proven or destroyed (maybe)! Mysteries solved (maybe)! Questions answered (maybe)! 😅🤔😍

ReineK

My mind is on fire 🤯 what is the granny's secret ?????

Raquel

I’m kinda worried that granny really knows more than we think and will recognize the Balthuman crest on Tora and will try to make poppy stop seeing him 😭😭 we know that Tora is a good man and didn’t chose the mafia life but maybe granny doesn’t and think that Tora will be dangerous to Poppy :/ On another hand, I can’t wait for Tora and Poppy to meet up 🖤🖤 Amazing chapter ☺️🖤

Sofia

I gotta say... Poppy's granny looks so soft and comfortable. I just had the impulse to hug her and cuddle!

Rachel B.

Granny is a trip and a half! I definitely see where Poppy gets it from! What is Granny NOT telling her? Why is Tora having a hard time finding their house? When will Poppy and Tora's first meeting be brought up again? Most of all, will we get to see that left hook used on Julri? Aside from everything going on, this episode made me warm and fuzzy. Her friends, old and new, truly care about her. I mean how could they not, hamsters are adorable and easy to love. Oh and Granny may be old but, she is full of SPICE! If she saw "Professor" Tora with her Poppy, she may just forget all about her ailments. 🤣🤣

LiegeOfGoblins

I was just like "episode 69...heheheh"

Emma Lou

This all gotta be to do with Pops mum...Pops mum is definitely Mafia...

Stephia87

Ok here are my predictions for next week: Poppy’s address was accidentally flipped in the system and Tora will try 13 Moonbright instead. There he’ll find Poppy arguing with Julri outside her house (because the used toilet paper man was waiting for her). Then we get to see Poppy punch Julri (because this queen doesn’t need saving) and Tora applies first aid to her hands and fluff ensues! What do you think??

Vrydelet

Love the chapter!! The mystery deepens with Poppy’s whole background. Exciting!!

Evenstar

Madame Pearl? Guys, that name is boss af! What if granny was a mob boss?🤵🏻‍♀️😃😃😃 I would freaking love that!!! 😄 She’s so saucy and bossy all the time. For real though, most people are speculating that Poppy’s mom must have clan ties because she left and because of that resting b!tch face photo🙎🏻‍♀️. But the heirloom 🌹 clip, which seems to be pretty important, was from her father. Also, those dudes had roses tattooed on their head, so maybe that clan is still active. Someone above 👆 suggested a potential Romeo and Juliette situation for poppy and Tora, but maybe that was Poppy’s parents’ story. Maybe they had to run and hide from both clans (with granny’s help?) to be together, but mom couldn’t handle leaving the life and losing financial backing (cuz I have to imagine someone whose title is madame had some serious doe💰🤔 ). And if the only way to leave the clan life is death, did Poppy’s dad really die of natural causes? So many questions running through my mind with this episode!!! (Cue Inspector Gadget theme song full blast🕵🏻‍♀️🕵🏻‍♀️🕵🏻‍♀️) OMG I was not intending to go full on tinfoil here 👩‍🚀 but I definitely chased that white rabbit 🐇 down the hole. 😵‍💫 Y’all really get my mind working! I love this place! ! I love this community! I love your beautiful mind and gifted hands, Lily! Thank you for introducing us to Tora, who now lives rent free in our minds and loins, to sweet, beautiful Poppy who makes us want to be better people, and to this awesome story. ❤️❤️❤️ 🐯 🐹

Green Eyed Soul

Everyone seems to deal very well with the fact that the boys are in the Mafia😳 Erdene: Yeah it’s not uncommon here 💅 Jacob: Toras appearance literally screams “I’m in the mafia”, but hey it’s fine💅💅 Also Erdene: My dad deals with these people all the time 💅💅💅 I wanna have their cool 😂😂😂

Noshoutouts

👏👏👏👏okay I know I’m late but I had to process. This was by far my favorite episode! THIS was riveting to experience the awesome intellect of Poppy and Tora! You were right Ms Lilly and friend who’s name I forgot, Poppy is a very think on the fly, fluid type of smarty pants, I loved how she set her Granny to tell on her own self like, ‘yeah Granny what happened? You fell? So here’s the thing…’ Gotcha! And Tora is so methodical and intentional it’s unsettling in a good way, he was like a computer in the end, like ‘recalculating.’ But it’s such a good balance and compliment to each other! What a riveting round that one was, looking forward to next week!

Souhila Tsuki Himé

🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵 French squad come here !! 🤣 Thank you Lily for this amazing épisode, This getting more and more interesting and exciting! Alors les filles, comment ça va après cet épisode pleins de rebondissements 😍 Un secret à venir, trop hâte 😌 D'après vous qui appelle Tora à la fin de l'épisode ?? Bisousssss

Keely

The love and adoration Tora has for poppy is so sweet. I love Tora's character (poppy's too). He has so much to him and he is so respectful and a gentlemen to poppy. We don't even know much about his back story but know enough that it was tragic and traumatic but Poppy has made his life better simply by accident. He has his violent side that he had no choice but to learn and has probably seen so much shit but can still show so much care to poppy. He is cold and quiet but is also fun and gentle. Despite his moodiness he cares deeply for Quincey as well like a brother. I love how Tora is protective of poppy but he doesn't overstep her boundaries and goes out of his way for her. He cares for her even more than he knows. Tora can also be vulnerable which is so good. I really have to applaud you lilt for the detail and depth you have put into this story and its characters. Tora isn't perfect but he really is a good guy with so much light. He actually cares for poppy and likes even the littlest things she does. I just love his care for her it makes me melt and how poppy is willing to stand up to gang members in Tora's defense. Poppy is strong and no damsel in distress but her and Tora work together in many ways. Lily shows perfectly that you don't need someone else to be happy but that doesn't mean it can't be a beautiful thing to have with the right person. The relationship and emotions between Tora and poppy is a dream tbh. Tora isn't toxic like many of the romance I run into. Love this sm Lily!

BegoniaRex

I know nothing, and I have SO many questions now, and I LOVE it! There are so few stories that pull out so many different emotions out of me - MPL is just a fun ride every week.

ran way too many miles and survived and EEEEEEEEP this episode was SO worth it. I love really good dialogue scenes and you bless us with TWO in one ep?? -swoon- The headlock was everything I hoped for. Bless. My brain is mush from running 15 hours but what continuously stands out to me in scenes like this is Poppy’s integrity and the ramifications of that. Her willingness to have a very frank discussion with Erdene and Jacob about Quincey and to get their consent and/or conditions for his contract, her very frank discussion of her own needs with Quincess and Tora AND recognizing they would have conditions of their own to be met, AND negotiating boundaries and expectations with Granny??? Writing realistic dialogue is so so hard and you did it so so well and I just - GAH - Side note of appreciation for Professor-Tora if he could just come and carry me around for a few days while my legs recover that would be excellent please thank you byeeeee Also mad shout out to Quincey. I love seeing all the layers and the fact that his flamboyant silliness isn’t mutually exclusive of his calculating business acumen isn’t exclusive of his social perceptiveness and kindness and honesty. You’d think I couldn’t like him any more than I already do but every panel basically proves me wrong. Oh RIGHT THE PLOT Okay granny???? What is up??? Here’s my crackhead tinfoil theory that’s absolutely way off base and which Patty can add to her list of “most ridiculous MPL conspiracies”: Granny is hiding Goliath in her house because he’s somehow related to Poppy’s missing mom who is somehow related to the mafia and Granny is using her maiden name at the hospital to hide her identity and Goliath hacked his way into some system somewhere to change Granny’s/Poppy’s address so if anyone comes looking for them they go to the wrong house. (Did I miss any of the “MPL Theories Greatest Hits” with that one?) (Goliath is not at Granny’s house otherwise she would have not tried to get Poppy to come back to Moonbright and she wouldnt have let Pops go home to charge her phone please don’t @ me) I do really wonder why Granny changed her name for the hospital. There’s a slight possibility she’s getting harassed by the mafia(?) and that’s protection? I wonder if the address change was by Granny for the same reason OR if it was changed by an outside party with more malicious intent? I can’t wait for next Friday night. Brb I gotta stock up on popcorn and marbles in preparation.

What if granny is actually granny Balthuman? She looks alot like quincy and his father. I wonder if she noped out of Narin with her daughter after learning how much of a sadist Vincent was/is. Because it seems like granny has been in Moonbright far longer, before poppy came along. Vincent's anger towards his mum is the reason why granny wants poppy out Narin would make sense. Also, abuse starts at home. What if he started by bullying Poppys mother/his sister, and that is what pushed granny out of Narin.

Hello lovelies... here's this week's analysis. I get a little ranty in this one... So just take it with a grain of salt. Also, over the last couple weeks I've had so many of you reach out asking when I'll post these (and honestly, I'm honored and flattered AF that you want to read these so bad 😩🙌🏻💜)... I'd say to give me wiggle room with real life, you can usually expect these on Sunday afternoons (USA time). Enjoy 😘😘 https://docs.google.com/document/d/19mYqsJ3ETCT72U1oyYLU0H9Bfj6lakLNER9L2VHYmiY/edit?usp=drivesdk

Ohh, what a gorgeous way to start off the episode! The black and white reminded me of Atnomen (incredible comic oh WEBTOON, I highly recommend checking it out!) and worked well with Jacob looked shook and Quincey like a boss! His eyes really jumped out at me and made me gooey over the incredible detailing yet again. Then surprise again! Jacob and Erdene know they’re in a clan? Absolutely did not see that coming and I LOVE that instead of going all hidden about it, it’s out there in the open for the two of them. That Poppy doesn’t have to hide that part of her job. And now I desperately want to go back to the club arc and re read all of their interactions in it, now knowing what I do. High key love me some open communication, it doesn’t dull the story at all, just adds to the suspense! Jacobs little jab at Tora was brilliant! He’s not wrong in fairness, he does scream, “I’m in the mafia.” And their little bromance moment in the background was a lot of fun. Looks like Tora’s friendship circle might be getting larger. Fingers crossed! Erdene’s totally non plussed reaction to it too was a relief I didn’t realise I needed. I guess for those native to Narin City, it’s not a huge deal. Just something you hear and let go over your head. Very unsurprised Gil doesn’t know, or that Quincey deliberately kept it from him. Pft, pft! The look on Quincey’s face and Erdene’s sweat drop at the mention of Tora rather dying than admit how special Poppy is to him. This is going to be so much fun to watch them all watching Poppy and Tora dance around each other while secretly gossiping together. Reining myself in, I like the insight that came with that part. That normally Quincey solidly hides his identity, but knowing having Poppy know was important to Tora, really added so much without saying barely anything. Flawless! The levity didn’t stay for long, with the conversation turning deep quickly after that. There was a lot of pain coming from Quincey reflecting it’s not an easy choice that Poppy is caught between. I wonder if we get more background into Quincey too? I hope so, I’m very intrigued! It’s incredible how it all rolls back around to the notebook, and we still don’t know where it is. Well, with Erdene putting it all out like that with everything Poppy has been through recently, I had to take a huge breath to relax, cause she’s just had another layer of crap to add to it with granny in hospital too! I’m going to hold on to Quincey’s words and wonder just what and when things will come to an end. I’m buckled in and ready for the ride! Moonbright!! I’ve been really looking forward to seeing more of Poppy’s home town. And getting to see sassy granny too. In seconds you can see where Poppy gets her feistiness from! And who didn’t yell with joy when she called out Julri and put him in the dirt along with us?! But after that, I was immensely uncomfortable with granny. Guilt trips are instant triggers for me, and having granny try and pull that on Poppy rattled me. There’s very clearly something she’s not saying, but instead of being honest with Poppy’s trusting her to make her own choices, she’s making them for her and going about it all wrong. That being said, it’s nice to see she’s not a perfect character, and Poppy stand up for herself. But why did she sign herself in with her maiden name? Why was their address swapped in the system? More fuel to the theorist fires burning bright!
