warning: abuse && mental illness && death
Poppet was a gift to Bonnie from her grandmother, who’d gotten the doll at a deceased woman’s estate sale. The woman, who stayed in her house for years at a time, collected old antique ceramic dolls, whom she talked to and treated like people. This was because when the woman was young, some of the dolls she owned weren’t as skilled at playing possum as they should have been and were accidentally spotted moving on several occasions by the girl. The dolls she had refused to aid in her self-destruction and thought it would be best to continue to act lifeless, but the woman was relentless and drove away all of her friends and family growing up as she insisted that her toy dollies were alive and had minds of her own. Eventually, she became the crazy recluse her neighbors would both fear and pity. Over the years she continued to collect dolls, hoping one day she’d find one that would actually speak to her, and she eventually did. She found Poppet, a sad little doll who’s previous owner had been negligent and cracked her ceramic body numerous times. Her new owner repaired the doll to the best of her ability and treated her kindly, trying to coax the doll into interacting with her. Poppet who was extremely sensitive and optimistic, thought confiding in this old woman was the perfect thing to do.
It was when that the old lady, who Poppet managed to confide in and actually grew to love, passed away. She didn’t like that one bit, especially when she was passed down to the granddaughter; Bonnie. It was after that point in time that Poppet started experiencing extreme mood swings. Dolly, who’d adopted her, tried to help her cure the outbursts, but only managed to get temporary relief in the form of medicine. Even though Poppet’s mood swings are contained, she still has to deal with voices in her head, who each try to persuade her to do what they want, but she tries not to listen. Poppet doesn’t want to be forced to be good or bad, she just wants to be herself. Afraid she’s going to be left alone with the voices inside her head, she’s constantly looking for a distraction, whether it be singing, drawing, talking, or dancing, she has to be doing something at every moment. Some look at her like she’s an overachiever because she partakes in almost every club, sport, and honors class, just so all of her hours are filled up with something other than silence. Poppet wishes for nothing more than to be at peace, but she doesn’t think that will ever happen.
Poppet has sided with Mickey, and is, fortunately for you, taken.
