#maeffects

This is a Prototype Ask/Roleplay Blog, set roughly after chapter 5 though partially canon divergent from the main timeline in that this particular Prototype (‘Proto’ for short) is based off of my PPT AU, though the AU content is more backstory based in this case. Except for the fact certain character deaths (e.g. Catnap) don’t occur. And who the Player is. Of course.

Major Lore Points for this ask blog will be found in <Logs>, which can be found in the #TheLORE tag. This blog is also part of the Protoverse (see both the Lore and Protoverse tags for more information), with this Prototype being Proto 4.

Canon-typical triggers (e.g. death, child torture/death, experimentation, gore, violence, torture, abuse), can (and will) appear so beware and be careful.

This particular Prototype is in a weird limbo where he is simultaneously still the child ‘Elliot killed to make him’ while also having been forced to mature and learn things no child his age should’ve learned. The fact that he puts on an act to seem scarier and more ‘grown up’ (especially for his ‘God’ facade) doesn’t help the confusion.

Ultimately however, he stopped aging the moment he stopped being human, and is therefore still a child, so romantic and sexual stuff is VERY MUCH BANNED.

As the rules restate for those not reading/not re-reading these opening paragraphs.

Rules

❌Don’ts❌:

•Anything sexual or romantic. Oleander is a child.

•Anything gen AI/pro-gen AI (get that slop out of my askbox)

•Harass mun or the character/his design

•Abuse/Bigotry (I will not tolerate your hatred, you will be blocked), including showing support of abusive/bigot figures/media

•Godmodding (listen the Poppy Gel can only heal him so much)

•Killing/injuring him randomly (if you want to (temporarily) kill/injure him in a roleplay interaction please ask first)

•Get annoyed/spam asks if I don’t respond immediately, I may be asleep or busy with work/other commitments and will try my best to get around to the ask/rp eventually (unless it breaks the rules)

✅Do’s✅:

•Roleplay and Asks, including from your PPT OCs (other fandoms may be declined but it’s a case-by-case basis for them)

•For PPT blogs doing the above, if you don’t want to be treated as part of the Protoverse by Oleander than please specify OOC

•Angst (as long as it doesn’t break the other rules)

•Gentler/Fluff interactions

•Magic Anons are allowed as they amuse me (as long as they don’t break the other stated rules)

•You can tag me into interactions but I won’t necessarily join them

•Fanart (I would be honoured)

•Compliment his acting skills or call him scary/intimidating (It pleases him greatly)

•Annoy him (it’s funny and I know at least some of you want to)

✨Magic Anon Rules✨:

•You can extend MA counters up to a maximum of 80

•When one MA.SpecialGuest is active, you cannot summon any other 'Special Guests' (characters from my AU) until the previous effect ends

•Same with MA’s of similar nature (e.g. you can’t turn Four into a human when he’s already been turned into a cat) as the effects would conflict with one another

•You can still send in effects while conflicting ones are active, but they won’t be applied until said conflicting effect ends

Facts

Prototype/4/Oleander Facts!

•He/They!

•His Ollie voice is represented in orange

•He was originally designed to be more like a Jack-In-The-Box

•Theatre Kid

•Doesn’t need to eat/drink nor does so, but does need sleep occasionally

•They have migraine issues that have only gotten worse since the train crash

•He also has chronic pain (the Poppy Gel does NOT help), though he will vehemently deny this or its severity should you ask about it

•Denial is their go to coping mechanism after all! And he has a persona to maintain

•His second coping mechanism is ranting to Preston, though it’s rarely about any of his issues

•There’s a special device in his head, which Elliot made to increase chances of their identity being preserved in the initial operation

•Said device also lets him assimilate the identities of those he kills into himself (with the help of certain Playtime technologies), hence MLL’s quote

•He had two masks - One that couldn’t move (the one he wore during the chapters) and one that could move/have expressions (The original that Elliot made), however post Log 0000 (see #TheLORE for more info) he only has the latter

•They do not like talking about his parents, biological or adoptive (adoptive does only apply to Elliot since they never met Molly)

•Nor does he like reminiscing on the years he was human

•He dislikes being called Ollie/Oliver (outside of when he was pretending to Poppy) for the above reason

Mun Facts

•Main: @celestial-solstice

•You can call me Solstice for short

•I am enby (they/them) and aroace

•This is my first ask/rp blog so sorry in advance if I mess up with anything

She's rushing into the room dragging anything that could help

Think....think...how could she help

@ms-spider-ludwig

[Oleander’s area had plenty of supplies, plenty of things that could be grabbed to aid him]

[When she enters the second side room, they’re curled up by a cabinet, near the one Preston was on, staring with one eye into the empty space where Catnap had been, just moments prior, trembling, barely breathing. They were still in a lot of pain, yes, but the shock of what they just witnessed (Catnap spontaneously disappearing in front of them) has distracted them from that momentarily]

[A strange, small, pink, floating algebraic symbol lingers near him, though when it notices her it moves away in a fashion that seemed to be encouraging her aid]

[The air is unnaturally quiet]

Human: VII/XXX

After alighting on the most recent of its perches, the tiny figure stops, head darting around, watching and watching, before it leans and peers down from the shadows. It's a small bird, a jackdaw. How did it get in here? And what is it doing?

@worldsworstemployee

[The two of them had been sitting on the pillow pile in the corner of the main room of the Fourth Prototype’s area, when suddenly Catnap perked up, eyes locking onto the jackdaw]

B1rd.

[4 blinked, shifting slightly to look at Catnap, having been too busy in thought to have heard the fluttering]

What?

B1rd.

[Catnap responded, as if that explained everything. Which it didn’t, but 4 could at least follow where he was looking to see the bird in question. Had they missed another air duct? Probably. Or maybe it had gotten in through the caves? Though why would it be in the caves? Unless….]

Don’t hunt it. The Tablet might have summoned it.

[Catnap made a disappointed noise, but obeyed his God’s command]

[Considering how… weirdly said Tablet had reacted to being thrown into a wall (see the <Logs> for more details), he didn’t want to particularly provoke it (or the beings doing magic through it) further, lest it take away one of the few good things it had done (bring Catnap to him)]

[He had, of course, explained everything to Catnap at this point, including what that thing had done, and the fact that there were at least 5 other Prototypes (and that he was apparently the fourth one in the numbering system they’re using) two of which had both been badly injured (in One’s case killed) by some other being called Joy]

[Catnap had taken the news quite well, however immediately afterwards reminded Proto of why they’d been avoiding him. By asking whether they had slept yet and then insisting they rest when they admitted they hadn’t. Using the train crash as further ammunition against them because of course the rebels couldn’t have stayed quiet about that part]

[…Ah. One of the Catnaps had sinned, or at least believed he had done so]

What is it that you have done?

[They hoped it was just the latter]

[Their Catnap stared at the other Catnap curiously, though didn’t get up, since there were multiple ducks sleeping on him]

Rei’s not even going to try to process what’s even going on anymore. He’s just confused. He’s tired. He’s 99% positive the anons wanted to give him more nightmares-

Wait why was 4 a cat?

@doctor-sawyer

[Said cat was curled up with a bigger body Catnap (his universe’s Catnap, though how would Rei know that?) which turned to look the mini Catnap that just ran into the room with confusion, before noticing the 10 Sawyer Bots and deciding he had better things to worry about. Like protecting his sleeping God from Sawyer]

F0ll0w.

{Translation: Follow me}

[He picked Four up (in the same way a mother cat would carry a kitten- Four looked barely older than a kitten anyway) and promptly ran into one of the side rooms. The one Preston had been in until the tablet started acting up, and had been returned to when it stopped]

[Said tablet was left behind on the pillow pile, because why the hell would Catnap prioritise it over his Saviour?]

[Once Rei ran past, he closed (and locked with the keypad to the side) the door, which had been built with security against the likes of Sawyer (and similar threats) in mind. Though it had never been tested so thoroughly]

[Then he turned to the mini Catnap, after placing his still-sleeping Lord on the counter]

{Translation: Explain yourself/Explain why you are being chased by 10 Sawyer Bots}

// MA.SpecialGuest.Catnap: 15/20

[The Tablet is now regenerated!]

[And the Prototype is now curled up on the pillows in agony. Yeah you set off the other pains as well (ignoring the headache he had that before). Catnap kept trying to get them to take painkillers, but they refused every time so now he’s searching for some water to take them with (in the hopes his God might relent if they don’t have to dry swallow the pills). Preston is watching Proto in concern]

// MA.SpecialGuest.Catnap: 6/20

Seems they were scared of something…..or someone.

She held them in her arms as she heard the sound of loud footsteps and scraping metal.

“Hewwo?”

[Why was there a five year old in the labs. All children were supposed to be in A Better Place not here!]

[…It was fine. Everything was fine. They would just… update the security over there too]

Greetings little one. Are you lost?

[He spoke softly, holding himself in a way that would be less intimidating]

[The fact Catnap was there helped also, though the experiment didn’t do anything but stare at Hikari curiously]

[Wow- that- jeez... that was fast.. wait how the hell does he know where Oleander is...??]

"Four please, where are you?"

[He spoke softly, but his words were rushed, and a bit frantic as he wandered, hooves trotting against the hard ground underneath him.]

"i'm here to help..."

- ( @theoriginalpuppetmaster )

4rt-!

[Catnap perks up as the First enters the area, while carrying… a bunch of random supplies in a blanket serving as a bag? Before indicating for the foal to follow him]

C0m£

[Opening the door to the second side room with frantic force, freezing briefly at the sight of his now-human God and some weird glowing algebraic x symbol, before dropping the supplies to the side and rushing to Oleander’s aid]

My L0rd!

[They had been curled up by a cabinet, Preston looking helplessly down upon them, one hand over their mouth, the other grabbing the counter for support, both eyes screwed shut, trembling, breath coming out in short, irregular, gasps. The pink {X} hovering nervously nearby]

[But at Catnaps words he looks up, one teary eye opening to see his most loyal follo friend, the hand coming down from his mouth to reach out towards him. The {X} moving away as if to permit this, the air buzzing joyously as if to celebrate the reunion.]

SpecialGuest.Catnap: LXXX/LXXX {Complete}

[It never came.]

[A fallen God left looking at empty space. At the one thing he can never have.]

Human: VI/XXX
