so which of the toys is the dough devouring gremlin of the house hold x3
I'm choosing to use this ask as an opportunity to tell about everyone's favourite foods :D
Kissy - belgian waffles
Doey - doughnuts (I'm very funny, I know thank you)
Huggy - blueberry muffins, but he will happily devour anything blueberry-flavoured, including plain blueberries
Catnap - hot cocoa, and chocolate in general
Yarnaby - froot loops, also rainbow sprinkles for some reason, also raw meat
Poppy and Ollie - pancakes with maple syrup (Elliot used to make these for them)
So in conclusion, most of them are dough devouring gremlins xD
As for anyone unincluded, I just haven't come up with food preferences for them😞 also guys sorry if asks are taking too long to answer. I feel bad to answer without art but uni is killing me and I have very little free time to draw heughhhh

Before 1950, Playtime planned to make a Jack in A Box that pops up during birthday parties
They've already made the fancy box where the Jester would come out from then realising how tedious it wuld be to carry such a big box to and fro at celebrations
So they made the prototype have the ability to attach himself to the box and his legs so he could move around during occassions
His toy version also had that addition where kids could connect him to the box and also on a pair of baggy jester pants with bells
Ollie would be one of those toys that could repeat back what you say
Onwards, Playtime Co. decided to pass the role of event planner to Ollie since he was fully capable of planning and managing all types of occasions
Huggy might be the lover of parties but he was unofficially the birthday planner so they needed somebody who could lay the groundworks with sharp intellect and creative thinking
Ollie would be the biggest troll in Playtime Co.
He was always there at any given moment, scuttling around in the background, catching every little moment
The moment where you find embarassing, sweet, playful and etc,
He would play it back to mess with people
You would be languidly chatting with Rich, sipping on coffee to the early morning rush until you heard something farmiliar.
"Yeeouch!"
Rich had to rub at your back profusely so you don't turn blue from coffee lodged in your throat because Ollie had caught the moment where you feel on your ass because a toy part had conveniently placed itself right between your feet
"Ollie!"
He was a menace around the adults because they needed to relax in his eyes eventhough they were reasonably overworked to the bone
He'd mess about with the senior executives, Stella being the only one who found it entertaining when he stops by her office, echoing a sneeze she lets out
Since he can mimic voices, he also took part in mimicking noises
During parties, you didn't need big speakers for the birthday song because it would play from him instead
He'd play confetti noises for the kids, a celebratory noise, a booing sound when he wants to tease a worker or a bonk noise when he playfully reprimands naughty kids
He'd entertain those who want to hear his sound effects, he's like a walking soundboard that it was straight noise pollution
The children don't find him creepy when he imitates voices because he doesn't purposely make it sound scary. He connects it with their friends voices so they giggle when they hear a "Yes!" Or a "No!" from a familiar person
The engineers actually planned to change his voice box so he could have an actual voice. The addition of having him imitate voices was a test on its own by Elliot but that proved to be difficult when Ollie was real cheeky with it
Nonetheless, they kept it in anyways because the youth loved it. It became a selling point and he was the main attraction for being a unique toy who loved mimicry
Going back to parties, he was the main entertainer. He jumps out of his big box, streamers raining on anybody in range as he bows
He was real loud with his announcements, making sure everybody was hooked to his words
You can't help but smile when the kids clap with him, his arms waving around to uplift the crowd
He had special shows with Poppy where he dances with her
The problem is she was smaller than him, how on earth would they make it work? Well, Ollie didn't need any alternative solutions; he dances with his sister no matter what
He'd bend down to her height to twirl her around or miraculously, Poppy gets twirled into the air until she had spun around to the floor with a bow
He made the choreographies, sometimes he liked doing them too much he doesn't involve Poppy into the plans eventhough their positions in dancing is going to be a problem
Ollie does improvs too much, making Poppy stare back at the audience with a confused expression to what Ollie was doing next and she has to play along so the children doesn't see the akward shift in acting
By the end of the show, he'd have her on his shoulder up high so Poppy could truly see the kids that loved the both of them with their grinning faces and glowing expressions from such a spectacular performance
He teams up with Huggy for decorations
If anybody saw a problem with Huggy hyperfocusing on Ollie's job, fret not, they make a good team
He takes the paper mache from your delicate hands to cut them into little people and letting Huggy hang them up on the wall with precise positioning
Ollie couldn't blow balloons at all, one poke at the rubber with his sharp, needle like fingers and he'd pop them so he watches Huggy prepares them instead
About his hands, he would be the most tender with them to avoid hurting the children. He'd sulk for days if he so happened to slightly nip at a child
It was a fascinating addition. They could replace it with cartoony gloves but he proved to make it work when he helps with meticulous projects with the kids like knitting
If he wasn't doing performances, he would be knitting with the youngsters
Says it's good for the brain and a passion project for the little ones as they manage to make a pattern out of it
He would also do some 'manicure' to his hands, add a little oil to make sure his pokers don't rust and admire them by wiggling his fingers from time to time
He'd be a big brother for the kids, teasing them but also caring deeply
He pull pranks here and there with that wacky smile on his face
Doting on these children was somthing he didn't do becase he was weak but because they were painfully human
They would cry, play, laugh and move on and he adores it. lways there to pat at the back of a wailing toddler or to give sweets as a reward
"Make sure to brush your teeth so you get pearly whites like me!" he said one time and the little ones took it seriously
Other than the orphans, Poppy was not free from getting doted on but he does it in the most embarassing way possible that Poppy hold her head screeching
"Yes, you're my sweet little sister, oh yes you are, the people's priness that smells just like a poppy!"
The many times she had pulled at his jester hat for him to stop was uncountable
She'd have to hide behind you, asking you to vouch for her
"Poppy's heading to the Game Station, she just left in those vents a minute ago."
You'd point, trying to shove down Poppy's bright red pigtails back into your apron while Ollie beams at you, knowing damn well
By the end of the day, he sees you and Poppy knocked out on the grass. You had a story book in your hands, likely telling tales to a child that already wandered off and now you had Poppy in your arms
His mechanical trill was audible as he floofs the blanket he made onto both of you
The look on your face was serene, days of working long hours had took a toll
He was captivated by how silent humans are in his sleep, tracing a finger down your face
"My, you make everything enchanting."
He leans in a little more quieter now, more vulnerable
"Thank you."
After his maker or father had left the world, he didn't register death, a fate that makes humans human. He expected Elliot to come to work next day, waiting by his office while everybody else would stare at him in pity when they realise what he was doing
Poppy could comprehend it more, tugging at her big brother's pants with a sad look in her eyes before you came by
There was no pity or misery in your eyes as you call him over with a crook of your hand to come with Poppy
The walk around the halls was quiet and you explained thoroughly, no deception and sugar coating
"Elliot has passed. He is never coming back here anymore."
The little doll couldn't help but sniffle, shoulders shaking with sorrow and Ollie placed him into his chest, cradling her. He looked at you with quietude, a rhytmic patting at his sister's back
"But as his legacy..and children, he will always be proud of you."
He stopped walking, watching your figure move ahead
"Be what Playtime intended you two to be."
Now, he pulls away from you, ready to pull away when he heard a little shuffle, not realising he had placed the blanket right over Poppy
"You know I can hear you, right?"
A vulnerable moment as a heat crawls up his spine
Poppy
Poppy would be fairly shy, a sweet little girl who was the peoples' princess
She didn't know a lot of children would love her when she gets surrounded in every room she's in, they called her by tons of nicknames
"You look like a princess!"
"I asked my mom for a dress like yours!"
"My name is Poppy, just like you!"
She was humble, permanent rosy cheeks turning even red if it could and she curtsied to the crowd
Poppy had to be constantly carried to reach places
Kissy, the workers, he brother had helped her reach to high places
If you heard tiny porcelain mary janes skitter to and fro from one hall to another, that's her
Thankfully, vents made it easier for her to travel
She was able to peep at everyone from above and see what they what they were doing
Toy painters hard at work, coworkers playing cards during break, a construction worker getting into a playful argument with another
It made her giggle behind a hand, being in Playtime everybody was animated and lively in theri everyday lives
She then goes the long way to another vent, it was always open and she jumps up to Elliot's arms when he hears a certain toy arrive
"Dad!"
She'd tell about her day to him, she was still a toy learning about how humans work and his eyes crease to her many questions. She was but a curious child just like the ones who surround him
He answers her question and brushed her hair with a spare brush he kept around for her. She found it calming, closing her eyes and sighing softly
Later, Elliot would tell her to run along with a pat to the head
"Go join your older brother, he must be busy."
She nods, going back to the vent and waving at her father
She would see the different vent pathways to also see the orphans in Playcare. Sometimes it'd be past bedtime and she pokes her head out the vent to see if anybody was still awake
One would be awake and she purses her lips to call them
"Pss, pss."
She would be excitedly scooped up and she'd sit on their lap, accompanying them until they fall asleep. A few would chatter until they pass out, some would begin to cry of night fright and she would rub at their palm to comfort them
When they fall silent, a light snore coming from them; she easily slipped out their arms
Poppy jumped out her skin when she saw that Catnap was in the hall just waiting and watching, she calmed herself by catching her breath
"Woah, I-I didn't expect you.. how long were you waiting there?"
He bashfully hung his head, having scared somebody as delicate as Poppy and walked away
"Wait, Catnap!"
He turns back to look at her calculating how far the ground is and herself and he lends a hand to help her scooch back into the vent
After a while, she drops down to the lobby and her brother was there, placing her into his arms
"And where were youuu going?"
He tickles her and she laughs, trying to shove his fingers back as he brings her to sit down
Moving on to the present, everybody would love dressing her up
If her blue dress isn't elegant enough, dresses made for her were in different colours
Yellow, pink, purple, the shades complimented her and she likes twirling around to show off to everybody
In this case, Eddie would be the one who'd thought of this dresses
It would be funny to me how he'd muse to himself how Poppy would look like with different themes
"If Poppy had a winter theme, would that be a hit?"
Leith looks at him confused especially since that was the first few words he uttered eversince he sat with him for lunch, chewed though half his croquettes and his salad
Playtime would so milk Poppy's doll with different sets like spring, outdoors, hiking and etc theme. Those seperate from doll sets, oh company greed in fiction too wow!
But in Playtime, Poppy would be dancing around with different outfits
She would match outfits with Ollie during performances, she'd always have a bell on her to match with him so they both jingle
The kids who were good with crafts woud make little accesories for her, poppy flowers and bows to style her hair and uniforms
Eventually, the chaos dies down, she'd be tucked comfortably with Ollie as he patrols the halls.
A week or more had passed since Elliot had passed and they of course still hold some sort of sorrow for him
Even when Ollie hums, it was a little sad and softer than usual
Poppy smiles wryly, tilting her head up at him
"You think dad would go crazy since I put bells in my hair now?"
He stops, his eyes scanning her slightly solemn expression until he guffawed
"Hoho, imagine how it'd be since I put bells in my shoes now!"
They talked till the cows came home about everything in between
They didn't know it yet but they felt an emotion akin to a human's; longing to talk to their father again and now they've placed that longing through memories instead
