OptimisticKoala

I made a blog for my Smiling Critter OC, OptimisticKoala so that I can reblog drawings of him and of other people's Smiling Critters OCs too. The header was drawn by chaosborb, while the icon was drawn by lumiere-angel-90.

This is the logo for my group of Smiling Critters OCs, the "Rejected Critters".

In the Smiling Critters' universes, they're a group of Critters who were each rejected for a specific reason by others, except their friends and family. When they all met and became friends, and even learned about each other's circumstance, they decided to form a group with Optik leading them. Now, they all have each other's back, and love to play and have fun. Though, the group's life and personalities sometimes depend on the universe they're in.

However, in the Poppy's Playtime universes, they're a group of humans that consists of a child orphan, a teenage orphan, and some employees of the factory who, at some point in each of their lives, were all experimented on and turned into Smiling Critters for the Bigger Bodies Initiative. Each one was then rejected by Playtime Co. because of something wrong with them. Optik, who ran away and hid to avoid being scrapped or destroyed, later met and rescued the others to have them avoid the same fate. The group of Critters decided to stick together to survive, and continued to even after when the Hour of Joy happened. So, they formed the "Rejected Critters" with Optik as the leader.

One of my Smiling Critters OCs, Taiko Tanuki. He's a member of the Rejected Critters and his talent is nutritional cooking. He not only makes and cooks healthy dishes, but also medicinal dishes as well. Taiko cares about his friends' health and will even encourage healthy eating by making healthy and medicinal dishes for his friends to eat, which the others are happy to receive from him. He works at his family's

As for why Taiko is a part of the Rejected Critters, other critters reject him because he can't control his transformations as they consider them annoying. The reason is that once he transforms into something or someone, he's stuck transformed for twenty-four hours before turning back into his normal self. Also, the leaf that he used to transform with is stuck on the top of his head as well until the transformation is over. No one knows why this happens, not even Taiko's own family.

There were times when Taiko had been stuck as someone else that he knew. For example, one time Taiko had transformed into his Aunt Haruka and was stuck looking like her for an entire day. Then came the incident when Taiko was invited and went along with his aunt to help her run some errands, but it seems that there being two Harukas in the same or different locations within the vicinity had caused critters to become confused. Taiko ended up apologizing for the confusion and had to clear things up, not knowing that his aunt had used him being stuck as her to cause some mischief, which is why she wanted him to come along with her.

Pendants, seeing as none of them are wearing them.

I'd like to volunteer Optik and four of her critter friends from the Rejected Critters, plus the leader of the Lmising Critters, Gaddoy.

[nikiichann]

Can you please draw our Smiling Critters OCs hanging out together?

Here ya go!

[optimistic-koala]

The two would definitely be friends. I just know it. ^^

[optimistic-koala]

Optik does end up sharing the rest of her Easter Eggs with both critter groups as well. When each pair of critters had come to her either asking, begging, acting too cool for one (Simon), trying to obtain one through force and was unsuccessful (Maggie and Icky), or just showed up out of nowhere (Allister), it was revealed that none of them had found any eggs at all and they all had their own reason for why, just like Baba and Bobby did.

Feeling bad for them, Optik had shared her easter eggs, giving each critter an egg that had matched that critter's own color and pendant symbol. As for why Optik had so many in her basket, she had also taken part in the Easter Egg Hunt, and by the time she was done, she had found all of the eggs. It was easy for her seeing as how everyone was too distracted or didn't participate to even find any. Even if no one had come to her for one, Optik would've shared her easter eggs with everyone anyway since she had so many.

Easter YCH and sketch were made by @novalizinpeace. I really loved the way you drew Optik and the others in both drawings. Thanks. ^^👍

[critter-heaven]

*Optik was in Picky's kitchen while the critter was away; she was looking for a snack to secretly take, and decided to reach for some cookies that were high up on the top shelf*

Mini Picky: Hey! You can't be in here! Not when Picky isn't here! Besides, dinner is in a few minutes, don't ruin your appetite!

[optimistic-koala]

*Nolan (Gaddoy) had appeared behind the distracted Mini Picky and grabbing it before stuffing it into an empty pot, closed the lid down to trap it, and then put the pot into the off, empty oven and closed the oven door*

Nolan: Who cares if we spoil our appetites? It's just a few cookies.

*After a few seconds, Olivia (Optik) climbed down and brought out about eight cookies, which was the amount that she had grabbed for Nolan*

Nolan: Thanks, Olivia. Better get out of here before Picky gets back.

Nolan left with the cookies, but Optik stayed, waiting for Picky.

[hero-tower-hq]

*Gaddoy arrives with Optik, who was currently going through Power Insanity*

The two had followed DogDay's instructions until they had encountered Elliot and Poppy.

Optik: *looks around, silently*

Gaddoy: We were told that you'd be able to help my friend out with her Power Insanity?

Elliot: Yes, we were told you were coming. Follow Poppy, she'll take you to where Sunsanity is waiting.

Poppy: Follow me! *running down the hall*

[optimistic-koala]

*the two followed Poppy until they arrived at a training room where Sunsanity was waiting for them*

Gaddoy: I don't get why she has to be here. What does training have to do with dealing with Power Insanity, especially for Eldritches?

[hero-tower-hq]

*Rabie's phone began ringing, and she answered it once she saw it was from Gaddoy*

Hey, Rabie. Now, before you say anything, I'm calling in the favor you owe me. I need help and it involves Death Koala. She's going through Power Insanity again and a friend of ours told me that there was a place inside of the Hero Tower that helps those who are going through Power Insanity. Think you can get the Hero Tower to help me?

Echo: Yeah, of course! Come on over as fast as you can and we can get everything set up, if we caught it early the side effects shouldn't be too bad. I'll let Poppy, Elliot, Toph and Sunsanity know, they're the ones that set up the program. And don't worry about the cost because there isn't one.

[optimistic-koala]

Thanks. By the way, word of warning since none of you know this: Death Koala is a City Threat-level Death Eldritch. Also, she told me right before she went into power insanity that she's been suppressing it for 6 days. I've never went through power insanity before, so is that bad?

*the other side was silent*

Hello? Rabie? You there?

[hero-tower-hq]

Echo: ...I'll let Toph know we're dealing with a 6 day suppression. But I haven't heard of a new eldritch in a while.

Sunsanity walks into the room, carrying some training equipment.

Sunsanity: New eldritch huh? Maybe we can spar, that might help release the built up energy. Luckily we caught it early, so we should be able to reverse the damage. *gets a slightly manic smile on his face*

[optimistic-koala]

We're good at hiding stuff. It's how none of you know about our groups' abilities or power levels. Anyway, we've just arrived at the Hero Tower. So, we'll be seeing you all. Also, you'll need to do something about your two friends. They'll probably pick a fight with us once they find out and come for revenge.

[hero-tower-hq]

*Rabie's phone began ringing, and she answered it once she saw it was from Gaddoy*

*the other side was silent*

Hello? Rabie? You there?

[hero-tower-hq]

*Optik and Gaddoy were sitting with Echo while having tea at a cafe* *looks concerned* I'm so sorry about us beating up your friends. How are they?

*Gaddoy scoffed* They deserved it for picking a fight with us just because I look like Solsanity. I mean, seriously.

Echo: Believe me, you did us all a HUGE favor, especially Sunsanity, or you may know him as Sunny Insanity, we've had a few vigilante allies mention that they know him as Sunny Insanity, anyways, he would be the one talking to you right now, but...he succumbed to oxygen deprivation and is out cold along with Luna. *she takes a minute to compose herself* We need you're help.

[hero-tower-hq]

Echo nods, reaches into her bag and pulls out a picture, it was blurry and dark.

Echo: I know it isn't a good image, but this happened last night. Members of Team Great Owl went to investigate reports of a break in at a blood bank. Upon arriving, it turned out to be a wolf and three vampire bat kids. we were hoping you knew something.

(host: @foodielovethealicorn)

[optimistic-koala]

🐨 *had a grimace on her face* I don't know of any wolf with vampire bats, but I do know someone who knows where every vampire bat in the city lives. She does business selling synthetic blood to vampire bats, but at the same time she's a villain. *gets out her phone and starts dialing a number* I can get her to tell me what you need to know by making a deal with her, but you all owe both me and my friend big time for this.

Optik called the number.

🐶 *he looked at Rabie* Have you ever heard of the villain, Axe Bunny? The one who every hero has went after but never came back alive because she's a City Threat-level Blood Eldritch? Also, the leader of the Killer Critters? Well, that's who she's talking to, and luckily, she's always willing to do business for a price.

🐨 *returns* Well... I was able to get the information you needed. She knows of one who fits the description. That critter tried to steal some synthetic blood that she makes and sells to other vampire bats, but he had gotten away. She said she'd send his address to your phone, including the address of his associate. He cares enough about those three that he'd have his associate look after them.

[hero-tower-hq]

Echo: A what?! I- you-....Ugh....The other's won't be happy, but if the information is valid and truthful, we have no reason to not use it. And I'll let them know about the synthetic blood she sells, she's wanted for multiple counts of murder against heroes, so if and when we bring her in, someone has to keep her business going the way she always did. That business is more useful than you could ever know, especially with the current situation.

[optimistic-koala]

Optik: *smiles* Glad to be of help. *holds out her phone* Let's exchange numbers to keep in contact. That way, it'd be easier rather than having you look for us every time you all need something.

*one number exchange with Optik and Gaddoy later*

*Optik and Gaddoy had paid for everything and left, leaving Rabie by herself, but siddenly, a message was sent to her phone from an unknown number*

Message: Hello there. The name's Axe Bunny. I know that Optik and Gaddoy must've told you all about me and what I do. I'm contacting you to let you know two things.

One: If you send any heroes after me and my friends, or any of you come yourselves to arrest me, you'll all end up like the other heroes we've dealt with.

Two: I know you think that you can have someone take over my business after you arrest us. Too bad, but nope. I'm the only one that knows how to make the synthetic blood, and I have lots of loyal customers. So, unless you want an angry mob of vampire bats at the hero tower, I suggest you leave me alone.

*the next messages sent by Axe Bunny had two addresses that belonged to the wolf and his associate*

[hero-tower-hq]

*Optik and Gaddoy were sitting with Echo while having tea at a cafe* *looks concerned* I'm so sorry about us beating up your friends. How are they?

*Gaddoy scoffed* They deserved it for picking a fight with us just because I look like Solsanity. I mean, seriously.

Meet Purry Catipillar of the Lmising Critters. I adopted them from @novalizinpeace's Halloween adopt event.

Pronouns: They/them

Abilities: Purry Catipillar can knit really emotional supportive stuff like scarves, sweaters, etc. The more they want someone to be loved, the warmer and nicer the knitting is. They are autistic-coded and can't handle hugs or physical touch, but they love their friends very much, so they found a different way to express this love through their knitting.

Purry Catipillar was introduced to the Lmising Critters thanks to the manager of the Crafts Store that they work part-time at. Their boss, Hobbies C. Horse had come up to them one day and informed Purry Catipillar that the son of an old friend of hers had stopped by for a visit and had even informed her about how he wanted to recruit someone who was good at crafting to join his group of Smiling Critters. So, she had recommended to him, Purry Catipillar, who was shocked after hearing this. They didn't know if it be a good idea joining a group of strangers that they haven't met or know nothing about.

In the end, Purry Catipillar was reassured and convinced by Hobbies C. Horse to meet the critters. The next day, while they were working, Gaddoy and Comet Kick had walked into the store and introduced themselves to Purry Catipillar, who introduced themself right back. They told the two that they can continue talking once it was Purry Catipillar's break, but Purry their boss shut that down and told them to clock out early and take the day off to hang out with the two. Long story short, after days of the three hanging out together, Purry Catipillar ended up becoming friends with Gaddoy and Comet and joined the group.

Replacing: Crafty

Position Reason: Both Purry Catipillar and Crafty are the positive, creative ones of their groups, and they both love their hobbies and their friends.

The other two drawings are of Purry Catipillar's BBI variant from the Poppy's Playtime universe. Unlike some of the toys that can speak and remember their entire past or parts of it before they had become a toy, Purry Catipillar is one of the ones that didn't. They don't speak, and they don't even remember their past either. BBI Purry Catipillar is in charge of a group of Mini Critters that follow it as its underlings as anything remaining that Purry Catipillar doesn't eat, the Mini Critters would eat themselves.

They would compete with PJ Pug-a-pillar for territory whenever the two would encounter each other, causing a fight to happen. The fight won't stop until either one backs down and runs off, leaving the other as the winner. This BBI and their mini critters are pretty aggressive with intruders who wander into their area, but loud sounds seem to be their weakness, scaring them off. Despite being hostile to intruders, it seems that there's certain intruders this toy won't attack, which are the Prototype and certain BBI experiments.

Name: Petunia/Experiment 1209

Status: Alive

[optimistic-koala]

Meet Comet Kick of the Lmising Critters. They're a Crafty x Baba adopt I got from @novalizinpeace a few months ago, last year. I rewrote their entire life and made them Crafty's cousin instead.

Pronouns: They/them

Abilities: By concentrating their emotions, they can deliver strong kicks and hits. The stronger their emotions, the harder they hit, but if they get too worked up, they end up getting self-damaged.

''Comet's teacher told them to keep themself together while fighting, to not let the adversary break their peace. But in all respect, destiny had showed them otherwise because the more they get worked up in a fight, the harder they can kick. Yeah, they end up passing out due to it, but a win is better that a lost! Right?''

Comet met Gaddoy one day during when Comet was training out in the forest, and the dog critter had come across them during a walk through the forest. Gaddoy saw them training a bit and was impressed and decided to recruit the unicorn to be the first one to join the group. Comet was then invited to join the Lmising Critters by Gaddoy, but they said no as they weren't interested and wanted to continue their training. Their adamant nature in not wanting to join changed once the dog critter told the unicorn about wanting to beat the Smiling Critters and replacing them as the better group.

Once Comet heard that they'd be going up against their Cousin Crafty's group made them interested as they considered the unicorn to be their rival for some reason. Comet told Gaddoy that they'll join only if he joins them in their training every time as they're bored and have no one to hang out with due to Comet trying to drag critters into training with them, which only either scares those critters away or avoid them completely. Gaddoy accepted the deal, and Comet joined the Lmising Critters as its first recruit. Over time, the two became friends. Also, Comet is secretly enjoying hanging out with their group of friends but doesn't want to admit it to anyone.

Replacing: Hoppy

Position Reason: Comet and Hoppy are both the athletes of their respective groups. Comet is less competitive than Hoppy, but they do love a good, fun competition.

Thank you, Foodielovethealicorn! His Dogday OC was fun to draw~ - If interested, I’m open for commissions!- https://www.deviantart.com/stash/0afqf15rwqz More at- https://linktr.ee/scorpiogustavo  #commission #scorpiogustavo #art #thank_you #Foodielovethealicorn #OC #dogday

[optimistic-koala]

This is my kinsona Smiling Critter OC, Gaddoy. He's DogDay's younger twin brother and the leader of the Lmising Critters. He also hates his own older brother.

Originally, he didn't hate DogDay but actually cared about him back then when they were pups. He even cared about DogDay too and would help him out against bullies. Even when his brother had created the 'Smiling Critters' hanged out with them a lot, Gaddoy was proud of him and has even meet DogDay's friends too.

He was okay with his brother hanging out with other critters as 'everyone needs a friend to hang out with' is what he'd say. As long as DogDay had the time to hang out with his little brother, then Gaddoy had nothing to complain about. All he wanted was for his brother to be happy. Unfortunately, things eventually didn't work out for him as during the time that had passed by, DogDay started hanging out with the Smiling Critters more and with his little brother less.

Not only that but making friends wasn't that easy for Gassoy as the Smiling Critters were famous, and since he was DogDay's brother, there were times when critters would mistake Gaddoy for him before realizing that he wasn't his brother. There were times where there were critters that were only friends with him to meet DogDay. Not only that, but those who didn't use Gaddoy either asked him constant questions about his brother or asked him if he could get DogDay's autograph for them, so he stopped being friends with those critters.

All of that made Gaddoy feel like the critters were comparing the two brothers and that DogDay was the better brother, making him feel like he'll always be in his brother's shadow. Even though he didn't want to, he went to go talk to DogDay about it. After Gaddoy had brought it up to DogDay, his brother told him to brush off his worries and to ignore what other critters are saying, but he couldn't and argued that if it's so simple, then DogDay should tell everyone to stop expecting him for everything involving his twin since he's 'so popular with everyone'.

Eventually angry words were exchanged between the two brothers, and well, DogDay said something he shouldn't have said to Gaddoy, but before he could apologize to him, Gaddoy walked away out of anger, but not before telling his brother that "he'll be creating his own group of critters and that they'll all be better and more popular than the Smiling Critters and replace them as the more beloved group," and left.

Gaddoy then started traveling around, recruiting critters into his group that he calls the 'Lmising Critters'. He couldn't come up with a name that was catchy, so he decided to just switch two of the letters around and stick with it for now. Gaddoy cares about his friends and don't think of them as a means to an end or to defeat his brother.

Replacing: DogDay

Position Reason: Gaddoy and DogDay are the leaders of their respective groups.

Thanks for drawing him. I really love his design. ^^👍
