Sibling Rivalry + Family AU Concept + Extra Doodles
Hello! I decided to draw a couple of more things yet again, and I was wondering… What happened right after the two met? So I came up with this silly little scenario!
Also..
I wanted to incorporate my own little AU for the fun of it, if you have any suggestions regarding it, please do tell!
Family AU:
Instead of having simply Ludwig’s children turned into toys, why not have the father himself having turned as well so they can truly be together? What happens if it wasn’t the Prototype who was the main antagonist of the entire franchise, but somebody else…
If you are not interested whatsoever in this AU or this AU’s story, please skip!
So basically, starting from the beginning, after having turned both of his children into experiments, he wanted to use the Poppy Gel serum he originally made to convert himself into an experiment as well, in order to assume immortality and be with his children forever. There was no favoritism between the two, so the both of the lot (Poppy and Oliver) practically were on good terms with each other, if you can say that. So neither go into war and betray their own father whatsoever! Ludwig cherished and loved both of his children equally, and in order to exert full attention to them and empathetically attempt to be the best parent-figure for them as possible, he willingly sacrifices the ownership of Playtime Co. and gives full responsibility and power to Leith Pierre (which, however, turned out to be an awful idea in the long run, and eventually and inexorably led to the downfall of Playtime Co., similarly to the original universe’s inevitable fate.) After having gone through experimentation, the original Poppy Gel serum was long lost due to a rebel employee in the factory, so the scientists had no clue how to continue further experimentation on others without granting them immortality. Even further, having gone through acute memory loss due to the side-effects of experimentation, Elliot had unfortunately forgotten the recipe of the original serum, which led to the scientists frantically trying to recreate the original serum again. Now in complete charge of the company and impressed by these three experiments (1006,1007, and 1008), Leith hires neurosurgeon Harley Sawyer to initiate the Bigger Bodies Initiative, and begin experimentation on Playcare’s orphans furtively behind Elliot’s back. As a result, Leith locks Elliot, Poppy, and Oliver away from the light of earth (granting them a room similarly to Poppy’s room in the original universe), where no employee (other than the executives and Harley Sawyer) could attempt to interact with them. They were kept locked within the precincts of Playtime’s deepest and most secluded parts of the factory for experimentation. The entire groups’ mental health had unfortunately deteriorated due to the constant experimentation, with Elliot developing a deep hatred for Leith’s money hungry motives, and his fault for granting Leith access to the company’s ownership. While stuck within an endless cycle of constant grueling experimentation, the three stay put during the future events of what is to come. Leith, having been completely overcome by his money-hungry nature, had deemed Harley Sawyer obsolete and betrayed the latter due to his shortcomings, and turned Sawyer into an experiment without consent, and coerced Sawyer into unwillingly turning into an experiment. Instead of referring him as the doctor, they ultimately gave him the name of “Experiment 1354” due to being the first successful experiment without needing any sort of sustenance for survival ever since the Ludwig family. He retains the majority of the similarities to his body compared to the original universe, albeit having a main body that towers as tall as the original Prototype’s body, with a mechanical spider-like body for movement. Horrified and irate over what they had done to him, Sawyer kills Leith out of anger and resentment. Consequently, this causes the other executives and higher-ups to subdue Sawyer and isolate him for confinement and even further experimentation. Sick, fed up, and disgusted by the company’s actions, Sawyer secretively escapes his confined spot, and finds orphaned Quinn Navidson (he is swapped with Theodore Grambell in this universe) and coerces him into obtaining a GrabPack and going on with the former’s plan, however, as expected, the same fate occurs, Quinn goes under experimentation, turns into Yarnaby, and now worships Sawyer. This causes Sawyer to orchestrate the Hour of Sorrow (HOJ’s equivalent in this universe) and gather all of the Bigger Bodies to kill all of the employees as a way of vengeance to what Leith and the Playtime Co. had done to Sawyer. After having rid of the company, causing it’s inevitable downfall and abandonment, Sawyer had then captured Elliot, and put in in a very select place as a consequence for having begun this entire purgatory of a company and having selected Leith as the company’s owner. Sawyer had then entrusted Poppy and Oliver with (I also need help with this! Which Bigger Body would best fit this select role?). Afterwards, the events of Poppy Playtime would occur all over again, with you teaming up with Elliot on getting his children back and defeating Sawyer. Blah blah blah and I’m done!
In simple words…
Original AU: worried Elliot Ludwig + sibling rivalry.
Family AU: very tired and annoyed dad + Doctor on the loose and is the main villain of the story + there still is sibling rivalry, but not as much and a lot tamer than before.
A note on Elliot’s experiment appearance: He’s meant to represent a jester as well, being the “tragedy” counterpart to Oliver’s “comedy”, which explains the tear he has on his eye.
Anyways, that’s all! As always, feel free to repost the art on any other platform as long as you do not claim it is yours, and there is no need to credit me when making content inspired off of this AU!
>!Also, remember that other post I made about Elliot? Well, I thought it was kind of crappy and decided to redo his design!!<
