@the-angel-of-salvation

[He had gone out into the greater part of the Labs in order to find a new large vat for the Poppy Gel (after a certain tablet decided he didn’t get to keep his room extension (see the newest Lore post for more info on that lol)), when you found him]

Don’t call me that.

[He muttered, before swinging around to face you]

[Or at least, she certainly doesn't see herself as an interloper. The tap of a cane accompanies softly approaching footsteps as a human figure that is distinctly not The Butcher makes his way through the winding corridors. His eyes - well, eye - dart back and forth warily as they walk, jester hood pushed back, cascade of blonde curls tied into a haphazard knot atop their head. A tiny, green Mini Huggy is sat atop his shoulder, huddled nervously up beside his head.]

[That is definitely The Prototype's outfit. And yet... that is not The Prototype.]

[How odd.]

// ooc: and thus begins the protoverse expansion!! :D

~ @experiment--1006

[Those cameras he’d put up had immediately proven their worth. An interloper. Not the original one, not the one from his universe, but a human all the same.]

[….But why were they wearing the same outfit as him? Was- were His actions repeated here also? No. He doubted so. None of those he had spoken to referenced anything along those lines. And anyway the Other had two eyes, not one. It was more like as if he had been-]

[No. He refused to be left guessing. He would go and ask this interloper himself.]

[As for you, well, the cameras did move to follow you, though they stopped doing after about 10 minutes.]

[…Whether that is a good or bad omen is yet to be seen]

//OOC: Protoverse Expansion - Aka ‘It Begins’ Part 2 (lol >:D )

- …. .. …/..-. . . .-.. …/.-.. .. -.- ./.-/-… .- -../.. -.. .- (This feels like a bad idea)

Nico could definitely feel something starring at her, but she tried to shrug the feeling off. “Not like we got much of a choice.”

[There isn’t any bigger body, nor the Prototype himself, on the other side of the air duct. Nothing to immediately to place the feeling on, until you notice a peculiar looking toy, which appears to be many toys stitched together into a singular experiment. It is watching you, but otherwise unmoving. Next to it is a dark rectangle (aka the tablet but you can’t tell that in the low lighting)]

@ms-spider-ludwig

[You certainly got his attention with that name. Though he is not pleased to be referred to by the name of a child he wants everyone to believe is dead and gone, nor does he like the reference to his connection to Him]

[He looks up when he hears the glass break, and therefore watches you enter, taking note of your guilty expression with a perfectly-unmoving poker face]

Ah, Catnap. Was that you or another who made that breaking noise?

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]
