Midnight Poppy Land 75 - Lakeside Bombshell (with Darla, Patty, Saucy Tuggles, and Vita)

Poppy tries to get more information out of Tora, but Tora shuts down. Poppy spirals, and we discuss how their differing backgrounds and subsequent opposite emotional reactions could cause problems.  

Tora, however, does reach out to her physically and emotionally, asking for a mere kiss. :D  

A red faced Poppy complies and then scoots away in embarrassment, after which Tora reveals a bit more about his background to Poppy. We learn that he is an orphan and his mom is presumed dead (emphasis on *presumed* - will she show up later???).   

Tora assumes their differences end there, but Poppy drops a bomb that lets us know they may not be as dissimilar as he thinks!  

SHE IS IN THE MAFIA!!!  

We discuss who, what, when, where, why, and how.  

The scene quickly turns comedic, with a spider catapulting Tora and Poppy into the water, a well-meaning couple on a stroll with a romantic wingwoman, and a very steamy ending.
