Guidelines

Just to introduce myself: my name is Sunny, I'm 30+, and I run on CST.

I'm coping with various mental illnesses (including ADHD, autism, and depression), so my activity and/or thread response time may be fickle. If you're looking for snappy responses, this might not be the blog you're looking for.

I'm probably stating the obvious, but I have a no tolerance policy for drama and hate. Please do not send any of that my way.

Minors, DNI.

NSFW content may be present here. This includes (but is not limited to): violence, blood, gore, and psychological horror.

The above does NOT include sexual content. I will NOT be writing that with The Prototype, since he was originally a child.

Muses of all sorts are welcome here: in-universe, crossover, duplicates, self-inserts, what have you.

I am mutuals only in terms of interaction.

That said, personals are welcome to follow me if they enjoy my content. They're also welcome to like or reblog most of my posts. The only thing I ask is that my roleplay threads AREN'T reblogged so the notifications don't get messed up/blow up.

I will NOT be doing romantic ships with The Prototype for the same reason I won't be writing smut with him: his persona is underage. I MIGHT, if the shoe fits, be willing to make an exception for 'puppy love,' which is an intense but relatively shallow romantic attachment associated with adolescents, but true romantic relationships are definitely out of the question. In addition, I will only be doing these potential love plots with other projects/experiments that were also originally children; I will not do it with adult characters.

Triggers will be tagged with 'trigger tw'. The only trigger I have is needless animal death/abuse, which I'll block the 'animal abuse tw' tag for.

Please don't assume my character's details for me, especially when it comes to backstory.

Neat vid!

Heck I'm STILL learning stuff about PPT and its official stuff that I didn't before. It was only a couple days ago that I learned Harley was originally viewed as being black by one of the writers (I think it's the same one I mentioned in the previous ask), which makes him far more interesting character-wise in certain ways.

I don't think Poppy knows what Elliot potentially did, either. I don't know if she knows that Oliver is inside the Prototype. It's possible (though not confirmed as far as I know) that she died before Oliver was ever adopted, which means she never would have known him as her adoptive brother.

I want to preface this with the phrase, THIS IS MY OWN OPINION. I feel like it's important to say that, just in case anyone thinks I'm bashing their thoughts in favor of mine.

Your thoughts are just as valid as mine! I'm just responding to them with my OWN thoughts.

That said...

I think it's very probable that the boy is Oliver, but I'm not sure I can buy into the idea that his biological parents killed him. A sign titled "Ollie's Room" can be found out-of-bounds in the Home Sweet Home section of Chapter 3: Deep Sleep, and Isaac Christopherson (one of (if not the) OG writer(s) for PPT) has confirmed that Ollie's room was intended to appear there, which means that he was indeed living in Playcare.

I don't think adults would have been allowed to go directly to where the childrens' rooms are. That would risk them learning too much and needing to be 'taken care of'...which could only lead to more problems, like a potential lawsuit and the company's shutdown. I guess it's possible that they snuck in, somehow getting past/disabling all the security cameras along the way...but it feels very unlikely, at least to me.

I can understand that the idea of anyone hurting a child is incredibly undesirable, but I do think that Elliot potentially did exactly that. Harley has outright said that 'personal agendas have long been the downfall of this company' and that 'Playtime is filled with vipers and backstabbers,' and as awful as he is, he doesn't seem like the kind of guy to lie.

So, unfortunately, it wouldn't surprise me if Elliot did kill Oliver in order to turn him into the Prototype as a sort of test before he did anything involving Poppy. It's also possible that Oliver got into some kind of accident, like Theodore or Jack did, and that's what killed him—but it does feel more obvious that he was intentionally killed.

In Oliver and Elliot's tape, he (Oliver) also made it abundantly clear that he felt as though Elliot cared more about Poppy than he did for Oliver. 'This was always about her. It was never about me, never about my Better Place. It was for her. She's all you talk about!' And when Elliot calls him, 'my boy,' his first response is to say that Elliot 'doesn't get to call him that,' which, to me, implies that Oliver was adopted by Elliot.

I do think that, initially, the adoption could have been genuine. He could have intended to cherish Oliver like a son and have both him and Poppy as part of his family. But, after Poppy's death, I think Elliot got desperate to get his daughter back, and Oliver became a casualty in that quest. Again, quoting Harley, 'survival necessitates choices; difficult choices.' Elliot favored Poppy's survival over Oliver's.
