Ticking In Reverse

Poppy Playtime Swap/canon divergent AU by @Snowcakestudios

[tickinginreverse]

General rundown for this AU

PLOT

The main diverging point in this AU is instead of kicking Harley out of the young geniuses program, Elliot adopted him and taught him morals (same level of snark, but significant more caring for the children)

Harley and Leith met much earlier, and started dating. This ended HORRIBLY for both of them, and caused Leith to take the path Harley originally did.

Leith is jealous of what Snow and Harley have, and tries to ruin them from the inside out

CHARACTERS

Snow (He/They) assistant scientist/ Harley’s bf AKA Bigger bodies Bright Lights Catnap

Maddie (She/They) Head of security, mother of Finn

Finn (He/They) Child of Maddie and Leith, adopted son of Harley and Snow

RELATIONSHIPS

Snow + Harley (actively dating)

Snow + Leith (very briefly dated, bitter exes)

Snow + Finn (babysitter/godparent)

Harley + Leith (very toxic relationship, unresolved trauma exes)

Harley + Finn (adopted father and son)

Harley + Maddie (coworkers and coparents)

Leith + Finn (father and son)

Leith + Maddie (one night stand that resulted in Finn)

General explanation of this AU

after the death of the Bigger bodies, something went wrong. The Red smoke began to infect the smiling critters, changing them and giving them a desire to spread

The Playcare fell first, and the smiling critters quickly went after the frowning critters, infecting most and Floppity Loppity going missing.

Catnap, Catfiene, and DepressedDay managed to escape, but now the infected are closing in on the Nightmare critters.

The Daydream critters live in their own self made paradise run my Mango Tango. They live in their own world and refuse to consider anything could possibly be wrong

Here is a chart of all the critters and their statuses so far

"For legal reasons, I'm stealing that cat. It's too cute!"

[whumpitisthen]

Thinking about recapture today...

[whumpitisthen]

"I missed you."

"Don't come any closer! I won't hold back!"

"Is this where you've been all this time? Hm... Nicer than I imagined. Not that you will ever get to enjoy nice things again once you're back where you belong."

"Mh... M-Master?"

"Please don't take me back. I can't go back, I-I can't..."

"No, please... You can't..." "I assure you, I can."

"I see you have made some friends. A shame you will never get to see them again."

"Where have your manners gone, huh? Has it really been so long you have forgotten how to behave?"

"I'm not scared of you...!"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. I know you remember how to be good for me."

"Where, where is my friend? What did you do to them?"

"Poor thing, all alone... No big mean dog to protect you from me."

"I won't go back with you, you can't make me!"

"Come. We have a lot of work to do."

"You... How did you find me?"

"We have a lot to catch up on. You can tell me all about the past few months once were back Home."

"Pl-please don't hurt me."

"You don't want to come Home with me?"

"I-I'm sorry."

"Let me go. I, I-I won't tell anyone, I won't do anything, just please —

"Ha hah... This one scarred even better than I hoped it would. Wonderful."

"I remember, I remember all my rules, sir, s-so, so you don't have to, have to take me back, I swear I didn't forget."

"You cut your hair... Tsk, how tragic. You always had such lovely long curls."

"I'll, I'll yell, I'll scream...!" "Don't tempt me."

I don't want to go back... Please, please don't take me back..."

"Awh, don't cry. Shhhh, it's alright sweetheart. All good things have to end eventually. You knew that this, too, would end someday."

"I can't fucking believe you."

"What, not even a hello?"

"I will never forgive you if you do this."

"Oh I can't wait to have you back by my side. The bed has been so cold and empty without you..."

"So you're done renovating your torture basement I presume?" "Hah, yes, as a matter of fact, I am."

"I missed you. I, I love you... God, please don't hurt me, I'm sorry, I won't run again, I swear, you don't have to — "

"Have you had your fun? Are you done with your little adventure now? Tired of pretending to be a person yet?"

"I am just never going to be free of you, am I? No matter what I do." "You could kill me and I'd come back to find you again the next day."

"I told you. I told you you cannot run. There is no escape."

"Don't do this, please..."

i LOVE when whumpees are so fucked up that it’s drilled into their head to refer to whumper as sir/ma’am, master/mistress, or any other titles, even when they’re not going through it anymore :3

[tickinginreverse]

Bringing this AU back bc I am very mentally ill, ANYWAYS hi chat!

[sickfictropes]

estranged caretaker putting off going to check on whumpee for hours, then panicking and feeling guilty when they find whumpee unconscious and burning up/bleeding out because they took too long >:O

[seth-whumps]

characters apologizing for things they have no control over. mumbling sorry while losing consciousness. feeling ashamed of a bleeding wound. embarrassed when an infection sets in. deep seated feverish guilt when they need to be carried, when their legs won't keep them upright anymore and they lean heavy on a friend, slurring apologies..........

NEED👏THAT👏MAN👏PREGNANT TOURNAMENT BRACKET

*Bracket updated as of the group finals

DO NOT BOT MY POLLS. I WILL DISQUALIFY YOUR CHARACTER.

[About the tournament]

Since I couldn't find a template for 300 contestants, I decided I'd split them into three groups of 100 instead. So, they'll essentially operate as three separate, yet congruent brackets, until the final poll, which will be a round robin with the three finalists (this will also help give some of the single-submissions a bit more of a chance to shine).

I will post 9 polls a day (maybe more if I get really into it...) until round 1 is complete, and I'll be updating this post frequently with links to each poll.

"What happened to Megatron?" Long story short, disqualification. If you want more context, browse 'the bot saga' tag. I want to leave that situation behind now.

(Edit: 04/27/25 - Post got too long with all the links and wouldn't save, so I've switched them over to a Google doc.

If, for some reason, the links don't work for you, search the tags 'tumblr poll' or 'tumblr's most breedable man' on the blog, and it should bring up just the original polls. Enjoy!)
