It's so insane to me that 2020 actually happened. And that we just kind of. Moved on? 2020 happened and then the world just decided to go back to normal? Huh??

"I am witnessing notable deterioration in bone and cartilage in 1805's larger form with each transformation. Surface level tests indicate that bones are fusing together and collapsing in on themselves when the metamorphosis takes place."
[LOG CODE 24384, IN RELATION, SUBJECT 1805 - THE BEAST.]
"Directly after transformation, 1805 is always lethargic, or, depending on the circumstances, unconscious. I have observed him fighting sleep in order to run from me in ways reminiscent of a frightened child under anaesthesia. I believe that without my intervention, Subject 1805 would consistently injure himself thanks to his tendency to run until he simply falls over."
[LOG CODE 24385, IN RELATION, SUBJECT 1805 - THE BEAST.]
"My experiments suggest that the transformation may be induced through stimuli. So far, electroshock therapy has proven the most efficient in 'bringing out the monster', so to speak, but I've yet to find a consistent method of reversing this process. I believe that the phenomenon is psychological in nature. Further interrogations are in order; perhaps of a more personal nature."

"I've done it. I've - we've - created two compounds that, when inhaled by these variants of the Bigger Bodies - 'weretoys', as my colleagues are beginning to call them - can instantly induce transformation. [CHUCKLES] even better... These compounds possess narcotic properties, somehow only active in these... these 'weretoys'. Their minds become... malleable. [...] More sessions are in order, to... hmm... Let's say, study these effects."

"The venture has proven very successful. No further comment."

"Rich, were you ever a human being?"
"...I... I-I.. Don't think so."

are you going to update the werehuggy Rich au fanfic thingy?? Sorry for asking but it's literally my favorite thing to read, since people in the ppt fandom don't write enough of the employees! But don't worry! No rush or anything. Just wondering :]
aww, tysm! I'm glad to know people are enjoying it. I have a plot direction in my mind but I'm not entirely sure how I'd go about it. I have some stockpiled art that I'm planning on posting very soon though >:)
introducing a multifandom OC of mine: THE ANALOGUE ARCHIVIST.
A extratemporal being with the sole purpose and ability to catalogue and keep all analogue audiovisual media ever created.
Its home can be found outside the bounds of reality; a winding maze of seemingly endless shelves and storage rooms. VHS tapes, wax cylinders, Edison's talking dolls. If it ever existed, it can be found, in pristine and untouched condition.
What about lost media? An obscure film lost in a church fire, the home video that was tucked away in your basement? Those are in its collection, too, unblemished.
Perhaps you could finally watch that tape that you've been searching for forever. If only you can find The Archivist.
ok but why do adoptive parents always use "Do you want to go and live with your mother?!" to end an argument and then scoff at the notion that you feel like they don't think of you as their real kid
Bonus for "You're the one who BEGGED us to adopt you!"
If Rich had a husband, his dialogue might still stay the same. Remember, this is the '80s, admitting to being gay presented a risk of getting fired, especially when talking to a superior. Rich could have a husband and always refer to him as his wife at work to avoid that.
I've got a theory.
It's not too much of a stretch to imagine that Ollie might be a toy. But Ollie being a toy could explain why his voice sounds like that.
Most toys seem to have a 'toy voice' and a 'real voice'. Obviously Poppy doesn't sound like she does in the Poppy commercial when she's talking to the player, and DogDay doesn't sound like his cutout.
Maybe somehow Ollie lost his real voice and got stuck only being able to speak in the toy voice? Perhaps he forgot who he was as a human and was left with only his identity as a toy?
Or maybe Ollie is a separate type of sentient toy altogether, one where the toy is somehow brought to life in and of itself without the need for a human mind placed inside of it?
I think there's going to be a reason why Ollie sounds like that. He's already been set up as a mysterious character.
If your theory is that Ollie is the prototype, maybe he learned that voice from a cartoon the company ran to promote a toy, similar to what they did with the Smiling Critters?
mainly did this to try to study his skeleton. His front legs can't bend at the knees and his back knees have very limited mobility. Adding extra mass to the bone structure caused some bone to grow over the knee joints and almost completely prevent them from rotating.
