bubbled up

Emerged with fizz

Bubbled up describes something rising to the surface, like bubbles in liquid.

Emotions or ideas bubble up when they emerge gradually into awareness: Resentment bubbled up after years of being overlooked.

Information bubbles up through an organization when it moves from lower levels to higher ones.

The phrase suggests organic emergence rather than deliberate surfacing.
