DISCLAIMER: This is an AU to PPT. All lore for this between Ollie and Ryuu is strictly Emotionally-based, focusing on bonds and friendship. I want ZERO inappropriate comments. That being said, please enjoy.
Age 20 years (delayed from Poppy Gel)
The Incident in 1980 caused a fatal injury, leaving Ryuu in a coma
An older boy wanted her and got into a fight with Ollie while she was taken to the playground
Elliot tried and failed to defuse the situation
In order to save her, Elliot placed her in a tank filled with Poppy Gel (the same kind used for Ollie and Poppy)
While the healing factor took effect, he didn’t expect the gel to slow her metabolism to a near halt similar to what’s seen with a reptile or amphibian
This would only slow the healing process
The gel would also slow her aging; she would still be 10 by the time she’s discovered
She was discovered after the Hour of Joy, after 15 years in the tank (this will be explained, I promise)
Ollie, now The Prototype, sets her free, wrapping her in a puffy blanket, and leaves her far outside the factory with a photo, one of her plushes, and the bracelet she made for him; he had kept her necklace when she was in a coma
This is the only time he sets foot outside the factory
Aside Preston and Sawyer, Ryuu is the only one he truly spares, believing she’ll lead a better life without him
Has gone through three foster families, the first two unable to handle her; the third has their own ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) child and decided to take her in
Despite the changes, she chooses to keep her maiden name when she’s old enough because she finds the actual flower pretty; and would her friend remember her if she changed her surname?
Was properly diagnosed with AuDHD in the late 1990s
She fully remembers Oliver and all he taught her, though some memories are still fuzzy; she has forgotten his voice
Had the photo turned into a locket
Graduated high school, has decided to hold off college until she’s rescued Ollie, and decides what she wants to do
Looks at her locket frequently (with the exception of dealing with Mommy Long Legs) for strength
The one side effect she has from spending 15 years submerged in Poppy Gel is the vivid/lucid nightmares she frequently gets. She is on medication for them, but one in particular gave her the drive to return to Playcare.
Doctors are amazed she isn’t suffering from anything else, after testing the sample that was stuck in her hair
Poppy Gel has given her better endurance and stamina, but she is gravely susceptible to Red Smoke
Returns to the factory in order to rescue her best friend
Chose a specific date to launch the rescue
With help, she owns a house and a Toyota RAV4
Rents a Toyota Sequoia in case she leaves the factory with more than just Ollie
Her main weapon is a crowbar
Even when she obtains a Grabpak, she keeps her weapon just in case
Tries her hardest not to hurt a single toy unless she absolutely has to
Fending off the Critters with flares doesn’t count since they’re uninjured
Whacked Yarnaby with the crowbar once…and only once…big mistake
Is more than relieved to hear Ollie’s voice over the phone
Does not give in to him pushing her away, but does push to try and reconnect
Is beyond devastated when she is tricked into thinking The Prototype was Ollie the whole time, having a massive crashout when she arrives in the Outimals Lair
Her resolve is challenged the most when she encounters Sawyer in the Prisons
The entirety she is on this level is a tug-of-war
Regrets never telling Ollie she liked-him liked-him as a kid; she never figured out how to say or express it
Basically an adult that thinks and acts like a child; part due to her AuDHD, part not letting go of the past not wanting to move on without Ollie
Likes: Ollie, her locket and the photo, her RAV4, lots of 80s and 90s music (Backstreet Boys being a heavy obsession, most songs making her think of Ollie; also loves Def Leppard), hanging out at the mall (spoils herself with pretzels), cartoons, Disney movies, her freedom, video games, animals, arts and crafts
Dislikes: Playtime Co, having been away from Ollie for 25 years, leaving Ollie behind and moving on without him, rap and country music, her disability, her freedom, bullies
Age 10 years (essentially held back from proper aging)
Refused to leave her side when she was in a coma; Elliot gives him 5mins when he continues to refuse leaving, he confesses to Ryuu he likes-her likes-her, and gives her a kiss on the head
Was forced to live in his original room before meeting Theodore years later; his escape attempts had ceased for years until he found a new resolve in Ryuu’s honor
He still has never met Poppy until Elliot’s death
Poppy has tried to reach out to him, only to be chased away with his outbursts through the door
Refused to even speak to Elliot after Ryuu’s “passing”, only going to him when needed
Discovers Ryuu in a tank of Poppy Gel after the Hour of Joy
He sets her free wrapping her in a blanket and leaving her outside the factory to be found
Was left with a photo, a plush, and the bracelet she made him while he kept the necklace
Thinks she’ll lead a better life without him
Felt his ultimate goal was met when he released Ryuu, so now there’s nothing more to lose
Is heartbroken when he sets her free, but he knows it’s for the best
Kept her Pink Panther plush and their photo album
Has always thought about Ryuu, but tried to keep the thoughts at bay
He does keep one photo of her on his person at all times (no one but Preston and Doey know)
Is shocked beyond words when he hears her voice for the first time over the phone
He speaks to her specifically with his original voice (not a façade)
Actively tries pushing her away so she’d leave the factory and not learn the awful truth
Despite trying to push her away, he still chooses to help her
Hears almost everything so he can aid her through the factory
Manages to trick her into thinking Ollie is gone and it’s been The Prototype the whole time
Assumes Ryuu will never accept him should she discover the truth
Vents to Preston frequently about Ryuu’s stubbornness, just like when she was a kid
Tells Preston about all his memories that he still has about her
Rushes to save her from Sawyer when his attempts to keep her from facing him fail
Healed Ryuu after her loss to Sawyer using Poppy Gel
Left her in an area nearby where she could be found by the others
Wanted to kiss her on the head like before, but is interrupted hearing Doey and Theo nearby
A child that tries to think and act like an adult; hasn’t been able to move on since losing Ryuu twice
Was told she had died when Elliot decided to put her in the tank
His mourning was further disrespected when Ryuu’s room was dismantled to make room for other orphans
Dislikes: Elliot, Sawyer, Playtime Co, battling Ryuu’s resolve and stubbornness, Ryuu being reckless, her uncovering the truth of the factory, her discovering his truth
I’m reaching with the Poppy Gel for Ryuu’s predicament. I’ve looked up what it can do, what it can cause, what it actually does to keep the toys alive. However, since it’s essentially in its infancy by this point and hasn’t been touched until Leith came to power, I’m going to assume it isn’t half as dangerous as it becomes later.
As for her long submergence, Leith and Sawyer are to blame. I don’t want to reveal too much as of this, I’m working on the fanfic at the same time, which will go more in depth of these tidbits. Grain of salt for now.
The help Ryuu has for her house and even her vehicle comes from her third foster family. They were able to adopt her and they adore her. She is still close with them, but is currently trying to find herself as she launches her rescue.
Preston will play a vital role for Ollie
Oliver is filled with rage and regret and is terrified of Ryuu learning what he is and what he’s become
I decided to give Ryuu a weapon because let’s be honest, in real life, that Grabpak is going to be useless where a crowbar will be useful…such as smashing Sawyer’s screen in
I know Preston wasn’t totally spared as he was turned into a mute and immobile toy made of various parts, but to Oliver, it’s a sparing; Sawyer we all know why
While the main lore has the toys stuck inside the factory because of Oliver’s word, him bringing Ryuu outside to be found by someone speaks volumes of his care for her
If you’ve watched “Hey Arnold”, you know where “like-you like-you” comes from; they are kids, they never fully understood what they were feeling until it was too late. Ollie will still never admit it, but Ryuu…will she?
I’m not gonna lie, my heart broke a bunch of times drawing Ollie hurting like that
Ryuu may know how to defend herself (maybe not as well as Ollie could), but her bark is worse than her bite; getting her to attack at all takes quite a lot of pushing, unless it’s self-defense
Sawyer would be the main recipient of such on onslaught; Yarnaby is self-defense
Ollie is still 10 here. My theory after watching playthroughs, listening to his specific cassette tape and corresponding VHSs as the Prototype, paying attention to his speech patterns, he really is still just a child trying to talk and act like an adult. I feel the others are in the same boat, given how they all talk (with the exception of Lily; she’s an adult who regressed a bit) and act. Staying trapped in all this trauma for so long wouldn’t allow any of them to age properly, wouldn’t allow them to grow how we think they would. That’s my understanding anyway. Trauma’s a bitch.
Ryuu’s increased endurance and stamina only means she can take some beatings and last longer than most, but isn’t overpowered; she still gets exhausted, she still feels the pains. Smack her with a bat, and her bones will still break.
Why did Oliver leave a photo with Ryuu? All will be revealed.
Ryuu’s like and dislike of her freedom is all linked to Playcare; likes it because she’s no longer in a horrid environment, and dislikes it because she doesn’t have her friend
