Update on PPt OC
I’m going to start working on my ‘ex-worker’ OC, but I’m going to display him in a different kind of format. Mainly through found documents & items, & even written out ‘commercials/broadcast’.
I’m still trying to figure out the style to draw these characters in, I like the cartoon style but the ‘realistic’ style works better for darker themes. I’ll probably bounce between the 2.
I’m also planning on making a second account just for Poppy Playtime OCs, still thinking of a name though. I’ll be moving all of my ppt art to that account once it’s been created.
Anyway, I’ll give the basic background about this character:
The main premise is that he is a parent of one of the orphans in Playcare. Basically his wife took the child there without him knowing until it was too late.
After some unfavorable actions, he got a job at Playtime Co to find his child. However, he got fired & even jailed due to some violent behavior.
He just got released, & under a new identity, he comes back to the now dilapidated factory with the delusion that his child is still there somewhere.
His name is Martin Redd, but that’s not his true name. That will revealed in due time.
By the way, this guy is like in his early 50s during chapters 1-4, so you can imagine what traversing through the factory is like for him.
I’ll reveal more of his character through future posts. But to simplify him as much as possible: he’s a loving father with good intentions, but makes incredibly bad life decisions.
Some drawings of Doey that I did 2 weeks ago that I wanted to post
When they were finally in Safe Haven, Minho sat down with Thomas and he went on about how Newt talked to Minho about his love for Thomas and the reason why Newt stuck to Thomas because the last place he wanted to be before he died was in his arms...
From then, Thomas knew that he would never be in love with anyone else again
NEWTMAS HEADCANNONS BECAUSE WHY NOT
On our episode fix-it: Newt lives edition ☹️🫶
Thomas WOULD NEVER shoot Newt. No. He threw the gun away (AS FAAAARRRRR AS HE COULD), emptied the bullet sockets, and continued to hug Newt instead
No matter how feral Crank!Newt was, no matter how deep he clawed Thomas' heart, back, neck, chest, he kept holding on, holding on to him like a lifeline and soothing him in his dialogue, "Kill me before I become one of those cannibal monsters! Kill me!"
"It's okay..love...it's okay"
Brenda and Minho actually got the serum/syringe in time to inject him wuth the cure/Thomas' blood
Them laying Newt down in safe haven to see if he's still alive, he is.
Thomas staying by Newt's side as his heartbeat is the only thing keeping him going, listening to his heartbeats.
Before Newt woke up Minho sat down with Thomas and he went on about how Newt talked to Minho about his love for Thomas and the reason why Newt stuck to Thomas because if he died the last place he wanted to be was in his arms... ☹️
Newt finally waking up with the sight of Thomas, appearing tousled with a bowl of soup (that he asked Frypan to make) ☹️☹️, his body still half conscious, wrecked, aching, and dizzy enough to not realized that his skin cleared from the flare and slowly recovering
Thomas finally tearing up a bit when Newt finally woke up and he laid his hand on his back to steady him, gently wiping Newt's face and body from liquid and blood
"Open up, sweetheart, you need to eat." Thomas said as he gently lifted a spoon of soup to Newt
Newt weakly smiling as he saw Thomas tenderly taking care of him, opening up and accepting his fate to be spoonfed by Thomas
TELL ME IF YOU WANT MOREE PLEASE 🥺🫶
I wondered how many gladers promised their friends, partners, and loved ones to take them to safe haven yet ended up becoming cranks, losing their loved ones, or even themselves trying to fight through..
Great. I am now in tears.
(( Sorry for being radio silent for a couple of weeks... but this chapter has had a tight hold on me ever since it came out...))
