The next day, Trollex was fixing his DJ booth since Poppy was busy, but he couldn't get it to work. Trollex looked around for someone to at least help

"Hmmmm. If Branch can't get Poppy for me, I'll go ask myself. No harm in asking for help." Trollex said

Trollex left Techno Lagoon and went to Poppy's pod. Trollex knocked and the door and saw Poppy open it

"Trollex? What are you doing here?" Poppy asked

"I need some help with my DJ booth. You think you could help me?" Trollex asked

"I really wish I could, but I'm focused on helping Barb planning her dads birthday. Sorry Trollex." Poppy said

"Wait! Maybe I could help out. Us Techno Trolls really enjoy birthdays!" Trollex said

"Wow! So you guys must take party planning very seriously too." Poppy said

"You got that right!" Trollex said

"Well it's Barbs thing so we'll have to ask her. And I spent all of yesterday helpin her, and I'm sure she'll say..."

————————————————

"Absolutely not." Barb said

"See I told you she'd say yes- WAIT WHAT?!!"

"I said no. I don't want a Techno Troll help plan my dads birthday. He'll mess it up!" Barb said

"Barb, Barb, listen. I know you want to make your dad feel special, but we'll need all the help we can get for it to happen." Poppy said

Barb looked at Trollex. Her eye twitched and Barb looked back at Poppy

"Fine I guess he can help too." Barb said

"Great! Now let's get going." Poppy said

"Yay! You two are my best friends." Trollex said, hugging them both

"Let me go if you know what's good for you." Barb said

Trollex let Barb go. Poppy looked at her party planner to see what else they could prepare

"Oook. Well we got our party supplies. Now we just need..MUSIC!!"

Trollex and Barb looked at Poppy

"You yelled out music. What are you planning Popcorn?" Barb asked

"Well it won't be a party without music now, will it?" Poppy asked

"I mean she's got a point." Trollex said

"Let's knock her out with a chair I have another idea." Barb whispered

"I can hear you." Poppy said

"Yeah, sounds good." Trollex whispered

"I CAN HEAR YOU!!" Poppy yelled

Trollex and Barb looked at her

"Well dang it. I thought we were whispering quiet enough." Barb said

"Oh! Barb I forgot to ask what's your dads favorite flavor of cake? Chocolate? Strawberry? The raspberry cake filling? Carrot-"

"I've heard enough Pop-Squeak. He likes chocolate cake. Why do you need-"

"Great! I'll ask Branch to do that." Poppy said

"Branch can bake?" Barb asked

"I always thought that Klaus guy was a baker." Trollex said

"So Branch hasn't baked a cake. But I'm sure with enough confidence-"

"Popcorn, I don't want my dads birthday to be a huge fail. I want it to actually mean something." Barb said

"Then I guess Trollex can ask Klaus instead." Poppy said

"Yeah! I can do this!" Trollex said

Trollex immediately zoomed off

"O...k. Now! We should get balloons, send out invitations, get drinks and snacks, and most importantly presents for Thrash." Poppy said

Barb looked at Poppy smiling at her looking all cute. Barb sighed and rolled her eyes

"Pop-Squeak, even if I was to get him a gift, I wouldn't know what to get him." Barb said

"You'll know. Your gift will come from the heart." Poppy said

"Don't act all wise like your dad." Barb said

"Yeah I should definitely not do that again. Anyway! Let's go prepare!" Poppy said

Poppy zoomed away. Barb walked the other way. Poppy came back and grabbed Barbs arms and zoomed off with her as went to go prepare some more
