then it's perfect! poppy will come to her for all her wild hair ideas and for upkeep. aaah, she's about 8/9 years younger than poppy who moved to austin 10 years ago. she volunteers at foster homes/centers because of her upbringing so they could have known each other from her presence at the one carmen was at? poppy would have been coming into austin when carmen was going in i think, my math is failing me right now. and she doesn't know anything about her own mother except her name and that she died a year after she gave poppy up to the state so she understands shit childhoods.
