*Poppy, Graceful Lace, and Scruffy are watching kids play house in the GameStation.*

Poppy, turning to Grace: “You two are married right? What was your wedding like?”

Graceful Lace: “It was lovely. Small because we didn’t really have much but we made the most of it. We had it in a small park on a spring morning. I had my mother’s dress. Of course I got a veil to go with it because she lost the older one in a move. It was too long anyway, practically dragged on the floor.”

Scruffy: “Not for me, your brother practically had a knife to my back staring daggers at me all the time!” *Chuckles as he thinks back*

Poppy, concerned: “Why’s that?”

Grace: “He’s always taken everything too seriously. Didn’t really appreciate Scruff having fun.”

Poppy: “It’s a wedding.”

Grace: “That’s what I said!”

Poppy: “I used to imagine what mine would be like, I’d want to have it in a big church with big windows and lots of people. I’d be wearing the prettiest dress with ribbons and lace all over…I never got past who I’d walk up to. I could never imagine a groom. Probably because I never really met anyone my age, just dad, Mary, and the doctors.”

Grace, smirking: “I bet you talked your father’s ear off about it all the time.”

Poppy: “No, he didn’t really like listening about that sort of thing. He would always say I was jumping ahead too far. That we needed to focus on now, when things are ‘simpler’.”

Grace: “But you were just playing pretend, and what did he mean by ‘Simpler’?”

Poppy: “It probably just reminded him I didn’t have long. We usually talk about the things we’d do together when I got better.”

Grace: “…”

I feel like a lot people don’t explore Poppy’s relationship with her father enough.

This man who chose such a small, defenseless body for his daughter. Did he do it on purpose? Did he want her to depend on him forever?

What were his plans for Oliver? Was Oliver disabled when he was chosen? (I say this because of the ‘Hammer’ comment.)

My current thoughts on Elliot is that he wanted his daughter to stay a perfect little girl forever. He didn’t hate Oliver, but he wasn’t going to break his back for him either. In the end he gave both children the worst parts of him and so many lives suffered because of selfish desires.

it’s a shame more vampire media doesn’t pull from vampire bat behavior because they’re such sweeties. they can only survive their incredibly specialized diet because bats will share blood with colony members that didn’t find a meal! there’s evidence that suggests the donors sometimes initiate this behavior themselves by approaching hungry bats! the colonies are mostly harems of females with a few males but they’ve been observed letting unrelated males in when it gets cold so they can all stay warm! cute little social critters!

The Cattiest Napper

With me throwing around names like EchoNight, MoonLight, and NightLight you may be wondering how CatNap fits into this. He kinda does…But I’d really wanna explain why yet because it’s spoilery.

To compensate, how about some CatNap rambling for factory AU?

In ‘The Flowers that Grow in Darkness’ he’s very mischievous and loves teasing toys he finds annoying. (Mostly Kickin, Bubba, and a handful of the Nightmares.) While he doesn’t hunt down fellow toys he does go hunting for wild animals. He did build a macabre shrine outside Bobby BearHug’s room which was not pleasant to wake up to so Ollie had to tell him to move it or destroy it. He doesn’t worship Oliver like a god but he does admire him greatly. Sometimes he plays up how much he respects him to annoy the others and flex his higher position as PlayCare’s Leader. (Even though DogDay has the same position, they’re co leaders.)

He helps toys that have a hard time sleeping which, is usually EchoNight, Doey, and Huggy. Benji Bear oddly has a high tolerance to his smoke.

I forgot to add that CatNap has to secretly help Doey and Huggy. They’re too stubborn to ask for it.

I honestly find it funny CatNap’s treatment kinda parallels real animals and pets. Because most people’s are sickly thin and often scared of his lord, meanwhile mine is a fat little nuisance (I mean this affectionately, every cat deserves to be a fat nuisance.) that bugs people because he thinks it’s funny. He even does things to pick at Oliver. That shrine he made? He knew Oliver didn’t demand that of him he just wanted him to feel guilty about telling him to get rid of it.

He’s the equivalent of that pet that immediately breaks the rule when you aren’t looking.

Wait a second, does Doey even need to breathe? Is he like a worm or amphibian where he breathes through his skin?

This whole post is getting sidetracked by Doey’s sleeping Habits…

Anyway, my current stance on this situation is that Doey can only get a nice full rest if Benji Bear reads to him, luckily, Benji loves to read to others.

He was made to do that, he’s based on a Teddy Ruxpin/MaMa Tattletale…

If the Scavenger party (CrushRush, Lacy, Echo, Flower, Hoppy.) ever brought back a claw machine I feel like the smaller toys would love going up in there and messing with any one who tried playing it.

They’d hide among the non experiment toys and just sneakily make sure the item never got picked up.

Or it would be like that video with the cat sleeping in it.

Now I’m imagining them raiding an arcade and taking all sorts of games back. Pac-Man, SkeeBall, pinball, the works.

Maybe getting into other abandoned buildings like urban explorers.

#Eventually they might take turns on who gets to leave and scavenge #DogDay would definitely be encouraged to go and he’d want to hang out with certain people…#poppy playtime #poppy playtime au #the flowers that grow in darkness

Blueberry noodle my beloved

Question to all my fellow ppt and especially huggy nerds:

What do you think huggy's hobby would be?

Literally always take headphones with you. If you decide that you probably won't need them today, that's the devil talking. You will. You will

I feel like Poppy desperately needs to have a conversation with a mature, nonjudgmental person. She did have Ollie and despite what happened later he was friendly and supportive but I feel like she would benefit from other voices and present people who lived their lives outside.

I may type up a conversation I have in mind for Poppy and Graceful Lace to demonstrate what I mean.

Did some quick doodles of my neopets because why not!

Sprig_Flower the faerie zafara, Kalemn the spotted tuskaninny, Rock803 the pea chia, Xx_Demeter_xX the darigan scorchio(That’s an 05’ name if ever you read it eh?), Decardian the wraith kiko, Keralli the alien aisha, and Laganosuchus the chocolate gnorbu

Perhaps one day I shall tell you of the farm heists.

I’m still working on details but basically CrushRush, Hoppy, EchoNight, FlowerSeed, and Lacy periodically snuck into farms nearby and took different recourses like seeds, chickens, and a cow.

This also kinda leads to the discussion of Cryptid sightings around the area. I imagine the factory is hidden at the edge of a massive national park with huge forests and possibly even a mountain or two.

I wonder how many Cryptid hunters go mysteriously missing?

Huggy and Kissy definitely try to fit into boxes like cats. When they’re not hunting or protecting or looking at their pictures they relax by smushing in boxes together.

People will be looking for them everywhere but there’s no telling which box they picked this time.
