Possible Spoilers for Chapter 5 of Poppy Playtime
I bring up the concept of making an AU off of chapter five and may accidentally spoil events or twists. Please proceed with this warning.
I’m not entirely sure on people’s consensus on chapter 5. It isn’t entirely terrible although not the greatest. Luke warm is probably what some might say. It fills desire in the game and ignites questions but nothing more. Seeing a video talking about it I have come to the notion that I want to give a spin on the Prototype. Of course I want to do an AU where Elliot Ludwig IS the prototype but also so is Ollie. First child and first adult turned into toys. For now I want to go with the idea that Elliot decided to make a body to house his soul before his passing. Ollie or someone else brings him back to life before or after the Hour of Joy. From here Elliot can try to make the, now kid filled factory, into a place of Poppy’s and Ollie’s safety.
Not entirely developed but I want to see what others think. I have an idea in mind and it starts with the boy we actually cared nothing about until the reveal: Ollie, the Prototype.
Royal type dynamic because I believe, at least I hope there is, a reason to why Ollie is so different from Poppy. Perhaps he was seen as a goofy kid who laughed at the hardest of situations, said what he could to find fun. Much like a jester who always joked in the hardest of times. Poppy can fill another trope of the “helpless princess”, or what Elliot aimed for, a dependent princess which every beck and call is listened to. We can see that Poppy has smarts and everyone practically has to help her seeing she is two apples tall. Maybe I am not making sense or explaining everything well. I just want to make the founder and his children the idea of untouchable. He is the king, his jester and daughter protected by name alone.
Ollie works closely with Elliot because of his saving much like Catnap does with the Prototype. He wants what is best for everyone even if his sister suffers their actions.
