Poplia is the femslash ship between Poppy and Dahlia from the Angry Birds fandom.
Canon[]
Poppy and Dahlia make their debuts in the franchise as part of Stella's flock in the Angry Birds: Stella canon. They are best friends along with the others in the group.
Poppy and Dahlia are the most polar opposites in the group. Poppy is loud, immature, and a prankster. Meanwhile, Dahlia is mild-mannered, serious, and a genius. Poppy is also a musician, often seen playing the drums, meanwhile Dahlia is a scientist. This shows an example of the dichotomy between the arts and science. The two tend to naturally clash because of their different personalities and interests. Dahlia can also be seen to have a short temper, especially when her scientific gadgets and developments are tampered with, which Poppy likes to do often. Despite that, they are still good friends who care about each other.
In one episode, Dahlia builds a giant, elaborate drum set for Poppy, which makes her overjoyed to the point of playing too hard and breaking it.
In the official book "Poppy's Perfect Prank", there is an extended interaction between the two, which suddenly shifts the story to be written in script format, with the added context that this was Poppy perfectly remembering word-for-word an entire conversation she had with Dahlia. Poppy in this story also has the tendency to say "totes" instead of "totally", and Dahlia herself eventually does it too and gets frustrated by how much Poppy has affected her.
In The Angry Birds Movie, the two have no lines or meaningful interactions, but they are seen as part of Stella's flock. Indicating that they are also best friends in the timeline as well.
Fanon[]
Poplia is a semi-rare pairing in the Angry Birds fandom. It doesn't have a lot of fan content in the grand scheme of things, but it is not uncommon to spot within the Angry Birds: Stella community and LGBTQ+ fans of the franchise. It is arguably the most popular ship for both characters, with many fans enjoying the "opposites attract" dynamic between the characters. The two are often depicted in a trio alongside Willow.
There is even some fanwork out there mostly portraying het relationships, but Poplia is the only same-gender ship among them. This shows how some people are able to look past their bias for hetero ships and see the chemistry between Poppy and Dahlia.
Fandom[]
Trivia[]
- Both are heavily designed/based on real bird breeds. Dahlia is an owl and Poppy is a cockatiel.
