"W-WHY NOT! WHY WONT YOU VENT, BRANCH?!!" Poppy yelled, desperate to understand the thoughts going through her friends head, unable to ever see through his facade. She watched as her dear friend, Branch , exhaled deeply, and turned around, revealing his sorrowful expression.

Poppy tried not to show the fact that she was slightly taken aback. Deep emotion was not something she saw often from him. he was one to be more isolated, especially with his emotions. he did not show them even to his truest of friends, in which he did not have many of.

"BECAUSE VENTING KILLED MY GRANDMA, OKAY?!" 

Branch yelled, and Poppy flinched.

"My uncle broke his neck doin' medbay once." a quiet voice was heard, and ignored.

"..Branch...H-How did..Venting kill your grandma? I- What vent was she in?" Poppy was trying to be careful not to push. She didn't want to overstep her friends boundaries; Knowing how secluded he usually is, what if it was just a slip up and he didn't want her to know? She wouldn't pressure him to tell her more if he didn't want to. 

Branch looked down, and exhaled once again. Poppy mentally prepared herself for what was to come next. Branch slowly looked up and locked eyes with poppy.
