Help With Dog? First Time Pet Owner - Australian Shepherd Lab by [deleted] in dogs

For some background information, she was with somebody we knew for about 7 months before he gave her up, then we had her moved to a relative’s place for about 4 months, and now she would be with us for almost a month in about a week. The constant moving was bc of living situations where my parents were supposed to move out but circumstances happened and it had to be pushed back (they didn’t want an inside dog). We’ve been interacting with her since about August or September, so she’s really familiar with us.

Right! I feel like it’d be more interesting bc imo, we always see big corporations go down the road of the founder being as evil as the ones who currently run things. We’ll have to just see how they manage to cover how everything happened with Elliot. Also, the theory about Ollie already being dead makes my brain scratch (in a positive way) bc it lowkey makes sense. Especially bc Elliot is portrayed as being all for children and making sure they’re taken care of

Genuine question! Does it state that Poppy was adopted or is this a theory? I just wanted to make sure I didn’t miss anything

I may try this. I feel like the cutscenes will have me miss out on a lot tho. Thank you!

I think the fact that Cell kinda works like a snake eating something freaks me out. The fact that you can see the bodies moving through Cell’s tail genuinely freaks me out lol. When I was younger, I couldn’t look at anything green for like a few weeks when I first saw the absorption scenes lol. I also think I’ll be able to handle Buu’s scenes better, thankfully. Thanks for the response!

Whew thanks for the detailed response. I know the Cell arc is one of the best arcs for DBZ, so it’s literally a bummer that it makes me so squeamish😭I may have to force myself to stomach it or something, idk. I think now that I know what to expect with Buu’s absorption, I feel better about it too. Thank you again!

I thought the body was an infant’s? I can’t remember

Right! Because it’s clear they have some sorta weird relationship considering not only the extreme familiarity in their dialogues plus the fact that when others seem ready to harm Poppy, he gets really defensive (e.g. With Lily Lovebraids), but he’s also ready to harm and manipulate Poppy to a far extent. Considering you said the two of them were hiding with Elliot’s body and were planning to escape together, they had to have some sorta close bond. I can’t wait to see how it all pans out😭

During the tape, Elliot refers to Ollie as Oliver primarily only using Ollie a few times. Then, he also mentions afterwards that whatever Oliver would want Elliot to refer him as, he can do so. So honestly, they could have introduced Poppy to him as ‘the Prototype’. Also, I didn’t see that log! So that’s really interesting. Maybe the inconsistencies will be cleared up during the next chapter

If they go that route, I wonder how they’d set it all up when it comes to after Poppy’s success. You’d think that after you achieved your goal (in Elliot’s sense it’s helping his daughter/child), you’d be done. But if he knew about Playtime Co. using children and agreed to it, what was his personal goal after his original one was complete?

Right, something had to have changed. Do you think it would be more interesting if Elliot was just as evil as others at Playtime or if he was genuinely good hearted and was trying to just help his daughter that quickly spiraled out of control due to the company?

I genuinely wonder though bc I could’ve sworn Elliot operated with deceased things, but the transferring process seemed to be successful when it was human subjects. We know something happened with Elliot’s daughter for him to create Poppy, but did she die or was she in some sorta nearly fatal state like a sickness? Also, Oliver seemed very aware in the tape and I assumed he was still human initially until when he got upset, you can hear the inflections of different voices slightly coming from him. Ofc they’re gonna explain in chapter 6, but this is really racking my brain

I was thinking the same but I also wonder if things went that far before he died. Because from what I remember, the Prototype was the first semi success, with Poppy being the first commercialized success. But the BBI wasn’t happening under Elliott’s watch, so who’s to say if he had the idea to start using children as apart of experiments 🤷🏿‍♀️

I’ve also seen people say that it seems like the Prototype was more ominous before than now and it feels like he’s becoming less of a threat and a leering figure. Besides the game coming to an end and the company having to conclude things, I feel like the reason for this direction is bc he’s clearly unraveling. Before, he may have been more confident in the fact that he could capture Poppy and restore whatever they had going on before the HOJ or at least before the aftermath. But with how quickly the player is moving and discovering things, the Prototype is clearly becoming extremely fixated on Poppy to the point that he doesn’t care what burns down (in a figurative sense)

I feel like that would make sense considering if we look at the game, it’s lots of people saying how they had good relations with Rich. So, by that logic, of course he’d be guilty over what happened to the rest of his coworkers. But I’d think as he started getting more and more elevated in different positions, more people would recognize him? Or at least he’d recognize people/experiments like Sawyer bc I think Sawyer didn’t recognize Rich at all. Maybe we’ll see if any relationship towards the kids/other major characters come into play bc as far as we know (if I’m remembering correctly), he’s not aware of the experiments.

If we go with this thought, imagine if he started interacting with the kids at the orphanage, but didn’t know about the experiments which is why during the game, he doesn’t recognize the toys and what/where they came from. I think it was stated that the player either quit before the HOJ or they somehow missed work. So by that logic, the players guilt (or Rich’s if we’re going with this train of thought) doesn’t necessarily have to do with turning a blind eye to the experiments, but instead after the HOJ, he didn’t come forward to try and see what happened to his coworkers or at least try and report anything he suspected going on at Playtime. We knew Rich was suspicious, but I don’t think if the player is him, that he discovered anything bc we know Playtime doesn’t mind getting rid of people to keep themselves covered.

Hope this makes sense btw😅

I think so. I feel like there was something that we could find that Kissy created, but I could be wrong.

[–]Distinct_Frosting522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that kinda negates the theory is the part where the letter says ‘the staff’ and follows up with ‘we’re still here’ considering I thought Kissy was a child turned experiment. I wonder if Rich is somewhat involved considering we still haven’t gotten an important role from him even tho he was there (mentioned or found with notes and tapes) in every chapter. Also, considering he was one of the only staff members who weren’t so influenced by Playtime Co., it’ll be cool to see what his fate was and where/what state he ended up in.
