To yarnaby: have a treat!

[Transcript under cut]

Harley Sawyer: “Knock yourself out,, Do watch it’s teeth though!”

[ask-yarnaby]

(I know the dangers but fuck it)

Can I give Yarnaby scritchies behind the ear?

[Transcript and mod notes under the cut]

Harley Sawyer: Ahh it seems you’ve found 1166’s weak spot. So long as you’re not his target, scratches and belly rubs are easy ways to get on Yarnaby’s good side.

Onomatopoeia’s:

Asker’s scratching sounds - “Scritch-a Scritch-a”

Yarnaby - “Purrr~ Purrr~” and “!Thump Thump Thump!”

[Mod Beetle Note: I’ve been so excited to draw Yarnaby getting tons of affection! He’s the bestest goodest boy he deserves it all <3]

[ask-yarnaby]

What's your favorite kind of food, fluffy boi??

[Transcript under the cut]

Harley Sawyer: I cleaned this one up for him... mostly.

[ask-yarnaby]

What effects would catnip have on Yarnaby?

[Transcription and mod note under cut under cut]

Harley Sawyer: It seems to scare him.

[Mod note: don't give your cats half their body weight in catnip.]

[ask-yarnaby]

Who is good and mortal boy?

SPOILER: IT'S YOU!

[ask-yarnaby]

does the doctor have...ANY regrets? and does Yarnaby?

[Transcript and mod notes under the cut]

Harley Sawyer: The only thing I have to regret is trusting the bastards who put me in here. Harley Sawyer: As for Yarnaby...

Harley Sawyer: The only thing I could see him regretting is missing snacktime.

Yarnaby [smudged, shaky]: its fuzzie Yarnaby [smudged, shakier]: owie

[Mod note: had fun with this one. Figuring out how to draw Yarnaby.]

[ask-yarnaby]

have you given the mouse a name?

[Transcription under cut]

Harley Sawyer: They never stick around long enough to get one.

[ask-yarnaby]

[Mod Grace: meowsssss dupid kitty with idiot disease :3 teehees]

[ask-yarnaby]

Hi Yarnaby!

Do you have any other friends? Or is it just The Doctor?

[Transcript and mod note under the cut]

Yarnaby: Mouse Mouse (smudged)

[Mod note: he's a beast to me.]

[ask-yarnaby]

Yarnaby what is the doctor to you? Your owner? Your Dad? Your boss? Your best friend?

[Transcript and mod note under the cut]

Yarnaby: Best Friend!!!

[Mode note: I know the text is only barely enough for a transcript let alone one under the cut but its about the principle of the matter. If i make an exception now for a short message, it'll be anarchy later! Also, I got Yarnaby's handwriting that messy by switching to my non-dominant hand, so that is authentically bad handwriting.]

[ask-yarnaby]

doctor your thoughs on alternate universes?

[Transcript and mod note under the cut]

Transcript:

Harley Sawyer: They're certainly a fascinating, albeit somewhat existentially alarming thought! Unfortunately, by their nature they are difficult if not impossible to prove or disprove the existence of, and so remain in the realm of theory. If they are indeed real, I would rather remain ignorant. It is far easier to process a universe that is singular in nature than to fret over the possibility of multiversal travel interfering with my research.

Harley Sawyer: All that being said, I understand that a large number of internet users are fond of "Alternate Universes," otherwise known as "AUs." As I understand it, they are fictional scenarios you come up with for things you enjoy, and while... "playing toys," as I have heard it called, is not a personal interest of mine, I would never criticize discussion of how changes to an environment or situation could impact individuals.

End Transcript.

[Mod note: Hi! I'm Critter. Beetle had a very busy week, and so I was one of the two new mods who volunteered to help run this blog. If you see a really long Sawyer ramble, it's probably at least partially my fault. I love to ramble and have been told that I sound like a mad scientist when I do. I should probably find a good font so I don't give myself joint pain with his monologues...]

[ask-yarnaby]

Uh how exactly will Yarnaby answer our questions? From what I understand he can’t talk.

[Transcription and Mod note under the cut :)!]

[Mod Beetle here- This blog won’t stick entirely to the lore and timeline of Poppy Playtime all the time! Like how I draw Yarnaby with ears! most will remain the same, but stuff like yarnaby being able to write for the sake of the “ask blog” gimmick :) and etc! I will try to stay as close to canon as possible most of the time, But if I think of a good answer and It means I have stretch or break the canon some I will for my own enjoyment and hopefully your guys’! <3 ]

Transcription-

Harley sawyer: Hand written in dark purple “As you can see, with much practice and VERY patient teaching from myself, Yarnaby is capable of rudimentary written communications. Not the best penmanship in my opinion, or spelling.. But it works well enough.”

Yarnaby: In blue crayon on a sign is written “I can write!”, with the word write being spelt rite.

It appears that after that unfortunate data breach, many a people have been flocking to find any information on my beloved little beast Yarnaby!

I’m always striving for more data, and I feel Yarnaby could use the extra stimuli in its activities!

Feel free to ask 1166 any odd questions you may have!

- Sincerely,

The Doctor
