I could write him in 😁 the tour hasn’t started yet
THEM!! They're very squishy.
I accidentally foreshadowed events that I didn't even dream up yet
Rereading my own stuff because I accidentally made a mistake in Off to Class. It's a fic dedicated to worldbuilding, character growth and foreshadowing. And holy crap rereading it made me realise just how much foreshadowing there is.
(SPOILERS FOR SMALLER BODIES)
Specifically during Miss Delight's lesson.
"Last lesson, we learned skin is the largest organ..."
Chemical Weapon introduces Ollie, who is infamous for being skinned.
"Without oxygen in your blood... eventually, death."
Catnap uses her smoke to leach the oxygen out of Leith Pierre's lungs and suffocate him.
"Today, we learn the basics of the neck."
The very next fic covers Dogday's throat surgery and breathing collar. Miss Delight shifts the lesson to warn him. This was the ONLY intended bit of foreshadowing in the whole fic...
All of this foreshadows the nightmare that is this thing
How... the heck??
But hey, it works!
She’ll be based off the existing one:
Obviously she can't be identical because this ☝️ is the BIGGER BODIES Catnap. For starters, my girl has short, stubby legs, which that thing… uhh… does not.
In Sugar Breath, her description reads like this:
“A skeleton cat, its fur utterly shed, bones and scars and bruises jabbed all around its papery skin. The creature’s spine shoved out of its back in sharp ridges. Its mouth gaped wide, wider than possible. Human faces bubbled and boiled within its skin. A sharp, angular moon pendant glinted in the sickly light.”
The faces boiling in her skin comes from the original concept for Nightmare Catnap, here:
I personally much prefer this version and want to create something similar to it.
How she works in Smaller Bodies is that, when someone is inflicted with fear and under the affects of poppy gas, they watch her fur peel off and shed, revealing the bones beneath.
She would also keep her jewellery. Here’s a very rough sketch:
No cheek fluff
Exposed ribs
Extremely sharp spine that extends to the tip of the tail
Earrings have changed (everything’s sharper, the heart is upside-down, the stud is a skull)
Her gentle 🌙 is now more of a jagged ‘C’
Ears are sharper, less fluffy
Claws are very long
Keep in mind that this sketch was hammered out in 10 minutes so obviously it’s missing a lot of details and overall looks very odd.
Exposed poppy gas tank in belly
She’s showing up for the first time in Sugar Breath and I need her to be fabulous ✨
Ollie needs more canon screen time but in the meantime since MOB Entertainment hasn’t mentioned/teased anything else about him let me just…
like
kidnap him
… them now!!
Contrary to their appearance, this is NOT a child. This isn’t even a toy.
Green is the colour of safety, which can be both legitimate and false.
Orange is a rejection of poppy red. It is a reflection of their old, natural body.
Pink is to appear feminine, sweet and appealing.
Purple is a royal colour. It represents luxury and power. Purple is represents Catnap.
Primary colours are a no-go unless for manipulative purposes. While Ollie can’t help that their phone is red, yellow and blue, behind the speaker is someone who has sworn off those colours. This also represents how they initially appear to be working for the company but are instead planning to sabotage it.
Get over here you little rat, you’re mine now
I like to headcanon that every time Ollie is on the phone with the Player their/his mind works like this
Ollie: We have to get enough power to progress and free the toys! :)
Ollie, internally: Omg please just die already
Also, they and Poppy shit-talk everyone and it’s great
wlw ship trend yayyy
She's appearing in DAT >:) very next chapter actually...
She was made before Coral but im posting her after her... ANYWAYS!! This is my other Miss Delight sister, Miss Marionette! Shes the scrapped dance teacher from Playcare!
The 6 ribbons attached to her back are part of her body and she can move/extend them at will :3
Here’s Celestial Witch Catnap! ✨
She wanted to be a goddess, but that wouldn’t be a dress up because she already is one! 💜
She’s based on the Royale High Whimsy Witch set with the Nightmare Witch hat!
Theodore Grambell gives me MASSIVE Omori vibes, so I thought: what would they look like together?
(this is genuinely going to be his design now because I'm in love with this :))
Hey there, I’m Qibs! (she/her) Author of the Smaller Bodies Initiative and Destroy-A-Toy! Lovely to have ya here! 💜🫂
