Hoppy Hopscotch
In the bustling town of Critterville, where every nook and cranny seemed to hold a tale of whimsy and wonder, lived a peculiar kangaroo named Krazyroo. With her head perpetually lost in the clouds of her own inventions and experiments, she was the local inventor, revered for her ingenuity yet often seen as an enigmatic figure by the townsfolk.
Krazyroo, with her penchant for solitude and her laboratory nestled on the outskirts near the Jolly Valley, was not one to mingle much with the denizens of Critterville. She preferred the company of her gadgets and gizmos to the chatter of the town square. Yet fate had a peculiar way of intervening in her solitary existence...
One day, as she trudged along the dusty path towards the supplies emporium, she encountered a lone bunny. The sight of the solitary child tugged at her heartstrings, though her reclusive nature initially resisted the urge to intervene. But to her surprise, the bunny persisted, following her every step with unwavering determination. At first, Krazyroo brushed off the peculiar encounter, attributing it to mere coincidence.
Yet as the days passed, the bunny, whom she later learned was named Hoppy Hopscotch, continued to shadow her every move. Despite her initial reluctance, Krazyroo found herself gradually warming up to the young bunny's infectious energy and irrepressible spirit. Eventually, Krazyroo relented and allowed Hoppy into her secluded abode, where the young bunny's boundless curiosity and enthusiasm breathed new life into the quiet corners of her laboratory.
Though Krazyroo professed her ineptitude with children, she couldn't deny the growing fondness she felt for Hoppy, whose presence brought a ray of sunshine into her solitary existence. As the days turned into weeks, Krazyroo began to recognize the potential in Hoppy's boundless energy, realizing that it could serve as a catalyst for her inventions. Together, they embarked on countless experiments, with Hoppy's zest for life complementing Krazyroo's meticulous craftsmanship.
However, amidst their newfound camaraderie, Krazyroo couldn't help but recognize the importance of Hoppy experiencing the joys of childhood beyond the confines of her laboratory. She understood that Hoppy needed to make friends and embrace the world outside their secluded haven.
Yet Hoppy, plagued by a deep-seated fear of separation stemming from the loss of her parents, initially balked at the prospect of venturing beyond Krazyroo's side. It was a hurdle that both Krazyroo and Hoppy had to overcome together, navigating the delicate balance between companionship and independence. Through patience, understanding, and unwavering support, Krazyroo gently encouraged Hoppy to step out of her comfort zone, assuring her that she would always have a place to call home amidst the adventures that awaited her.
And as Hoppy gradually spread her wings and forged new friendships in the bustling streets of Critterville, Krazyroo found solace in the knowledge that their bond, forged amidst the whirlwind of invention and companionship, would endure the test of time.
The pendants of friendship (Smiling Critters Headcanon)
Just like elements of harmony from My Little Pony, the Smiling Critters also have their own symbols of magic: The pendants of friendship. Just like how the elements of harmony work, the symbols only work when the users (the Smiling Critters) use the magic within the pendants together to create a power stronger than anything known to man
Critter High
I do not regret making this
The Critters as old timey Christmas Singers. It would fit well honestly
WE'RE OFF TO SEE THE WIZARD, THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF BUBBA
CLUE AU
Hoppy Hopstcotch as.... Mr. Green!!!
WELCOME TO PLAYTOWN/POPPY PLAYTOWN- CHARACTER REFERENCE #4.
Name: Hoppy Rabbilda Hopscotch.
Age: 21
Height: 270 mts/8'8 fts.
Species: Smiling critter creature. Rabbit (eastern cottontail).
Occupation: enginer/researcher.
Genre: female (She/her).
Sexuality: Bi.
Magical usser type: Alchemist.
Birth place: bayquarter (Main city).
Birth day: march 13th.
Personality:
Hoppy is a very lively rabbit focused on what she does and only that; and along with his somewhat rude and misaligned appearance, he seems to be a person who is a little rough to start getting to know, but is actually a very energetic and impulsive person; especially with things that are of interest to her or something that those close to her need (even if it costs her a little at first, if it is important to a person she cares about, she will do it too).
She is extremely competitive, she likes to do things the right way, insistent to the point of being stubborn and she doesn't see the limits of certain things; especially with experiments that don't go quite right.
She is also not very good at being patient or regulating her reactions, which gives rise to the recurring gag in which she usually gives a little scream that scares those around her when she is very excited, euphoric or angry.
about her work and daily life.
Hoppy has his daily routine very clear =
He gets up at 4 am and eats a light breakfast (eggs and bread in general).
At 4:30 he exercises.
At 5:30 he starts getting ready for work.
She works from 6:30 to 20:30, with 3 daily breaks of 1 and a half each to eat. She has a pretty heavy job as a mechanic of small airplanes, seaplanes and other flying vehicles. And that time can be extended and she studies from 21 to 23 with Bubba to become an official consultant on antiques and how to fix them.
In her free time it is common to see her spending time with Bobby, getting into a dispute with kickin or begging Bubba to approve a project of dubious morality or safety.
Lately she seems interested in spending time with crafty or Dogday, more than anything because of his particular interest in witchcraft as a study.
Magic data (and other skills):
Hoppy is a certified alchemist,title that is not only achieved by studies but by affinity to technology. Hoppy specializes in technology and his related element is electricity and mechanic.
If she gets into a fight, she simply conjures her alchemical circle or uses her pocket watch to use it without having to draw it to use it to attack or defend herself.
Due to the element it handles, it causes it to run out and have a "short circuit" when used, something that can be handled by carrying metallic elements that make it more likely to receive electricity.
As in a certain series of two alchemist brothers; You can fix and modify objects as long as you don't use a different or extra item to restore it.
other random data:
favorite food: spatakópitas «I went to a witch bazaar when I was a kid, and those little puff pastry and spinach things stayed in my memory.».
Favorite dessert: carrot cake «I like the carrot cake despite being a rabbit, I don't like it because I'm a rabbit»
hated food: carrots «Because of a certain actor, now everyone thinks that rabbits love carrots, I hate them!! They are hard, sour and need to be cooked or spiced to make them taste good..».
smell: mint.
strength: concentration, brute force, analytical skills.
weakness: communication problems, lack of interest.
favorite physical appearance: muscles «pure physical effort worth showing off.».
hated physical appearance: hair «I hate how flammable it is to my experiments and tests…and I'm too lazy to wash it.».
person you respect most: dad «What? I adore my dad»
person you don't want as an enemy: Bubba «He's the one who cancels my experiments! It's not fair! someone once makes a clock with the ability to travel through dimensions and then threatens me for taking away my alchemist's license!!.».
hobby:sports, fly seaplanes, study about astronomy or witchcraft.
Some crush?: ... «Bobby, I love Bobby; I have tried to propose to her about 15 times but I am never able to because I think it won't be romantic enough; the good thing is that she doesn't realize... I hope it».
UPDATE ACCORDING TO THE DATA BOOK!!!
Thanks to the release of the Poppy playtime data book and some revelations from Bobby; among them the status of him as an experiment and experiment number, I have decided to make changes to the number of experiments of the critters; with the exception of Dogday at the moment (because in Libby's lore the experimentation with her stopped because of P.Layer).
now they will be:
BOBBY BEARHUG=#1186
BUBBA BUBBAPHANT=#1187
CATNAP=#1188
PICKY PIGGY=#1190
KICKIN CHIKEN=#1191
HOPPY HOPSCOTCH=#1192
CRAFTYCORN=#1194
DOGDAY=1202
SMILING CRITTERS- TEST SUBJECT AND EXPERIMENT NUMBER.
while I take the time to draw the other critters; Here I have a nod to lore and the order in which they were used as experimental subjects.
+
A bit of lore and context.
Theodore (Catnap) and Margarette (Hoppy) are childs of factory employees who, due to a certain clause that says that if an employee cannot maintain certain standards of living to maintain them; These would be immediately sent to playcare with the possibility of visits from the parents (plot twist= the company itself didn't allow it).
The Bugatti brother's were from Argentina, Horatio Bugatti (older brother) worked at Playtime Co. in the school area as a teacher of languages before the Miss delight sister's; while Carlo (younger brother) was a high school senior and frequented the playcare to visit his brother, wanting to apply for the Ludwig scholarship to specialize in mechatronic engineering.
Priya Sharma was actually an insider for a rival company and went to work in playcare as a technician under the name "Munna Kulakarni.", who was investigating some irregularities at playtime co to sell it to the media; but she was betrayed by another specialist and used as a test subject for adult brainwashing (it went VERY badly).
Kenichi was the son of two system engineers, however they died "of unexplained causes" and he was relocated to the orphanage.
Minerva, Horatio and Carlo are totally foreigners, the brothers are from Argentina and the girl is from Colombia.
Priya and Kenichi are children of immigrants, Priya from India and Kenichi from Japan.
Libby was born in french quarter in New Orleans and she knows how to speak Cajun (but she only talks like that when she's angry)
Theodore's parents are supposedly British

POPPY PLAYTOWN (SMILING CRITTERS ICONS)
(Yeah, the name is awfull, but that's what there is-).
Well, I still reserve the lore and structure of the au, but in simple words it is a= no humans, no experiments, just the characters from which the toys are inspired in a world where the toys are THE living beings; and in an environment similar to a Ghibli film(including magic, technology and of course... WAR-).
With SC! icons there is not much to explain, of course; except for the review that Hoppy and Catnap had, more than anything because she was not satisfied with the first design.
BOBBY BEARHUG.
DOGDAY SUNNYHOWL.
KICKIN CHICKEN.
HOPPY HOTSCOTCH.
CRAFTYCORN MAHOGANY.
BUBBA BUBBAPHANT.
CATNAP MIDDLEMOON.
PICKY PIGGY.
Yeahh... about that Smiling Critter AU...
(i'm the only one who organizes them by color? Yeah? Ok).
This Alternative universe it's very simple=
Imagine toys from playtime CO. in a universe where they are characters in a world of a construction similar to the Ghibli films (and since the idea began with the SC, I will publish them first, more or less explaining their roles later).
Do not confuse; They may not be the monsters of the game universe, but they are still PRETTY big=
(because you can't see the details from afar, captures of all of them up close)
Heya chat! Ive been holding these for a while but now im ready to show them! Heres some designs I plan to turn into keychains! Would you be interested?
Finally got around to finishing the rest of the Smiling Critters! I’m happy with how they turned out!
Chapter 2’s out! 👹👹👹
PLOT: KickinChicken is worried about the Toy Tour because he doesn’t think he can perform right.
That’s a bigger problem than he thinks…

NEXT OPERATION!!!!
Get the Smiling Critters on the train
Force them into a compartment with the Nightmare Critters
Mass discomfort
“I POSSESS A QUESTION, ONE ASKED OF MY PEOPLE. I AM BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO LIFE SURROUNDED NOT BY HERETICAL HUMANS BUT BY THESE "SMALLER BODIES". THEY HAVE WELCOMED ME TO THEIR QUARTERS.”
There's a new toy on board! Introducing BigNap! (Unless a more eloquent name is suggested!)
Sarificed for research and condemned to an unsustainable body, Theodore Grambell's old body has melted away at the hands of Miss Delight and Harley Sawyer. His mind has been reignited in a different vessel - one twelve feet tall and with the power to tear a school bus in half.
But it's alright, because while BigNap may be vengeful and venomous, he's quite the dear little kitty to those dang Smaller Bodies in the Playcare.
So much so that he's introduced in the very first chapter of Destroy-A-Toy! It's underway!
Now, Bigger Bodies Catnap's question is:
(He asks because his debut is in the very first story for DAT and therefore his formatting must be worked out.)
How This Creature Works
Big Catnap, as colloquially named by the Critters, children and teachers of the Playcare, is the new-and-improved replacement for that old, faulty thing who cried too much. He is twelve feet tall and an absolute tank - if you ignore the protruding ribcage and ominous growling stomach.
Appearance
The same as the Catnap found in the original Poppy Playtime. Big Catnap is a large, scrawny creature with a protruding spinal chord and disconcerting slices of ribcage jutting from his paper-thin skin. His eyes are minuscule and set deep into mouth-like sockets. His fur is abyssal-dark felt soft to the touch.
Deep inside his throat, if one were to look, pipes could be found. Who knows what they produce?
Personality
Quiet, docile and allegedly "friend-shaped" (according to my friend Foxfire), this Catnap looks like he can kill you but is in fact a cinnamon roll. At least, to people he likes. Otherwise you can expect yourself to be on the plate.
BigNap is possessive over the Playcare children and loving towards toy experiments - but has a VERY strong hostility to humans. This is an issue because of the upcoming Toy Tour…
Theodore gasses the children not out of obligation but out of concern for their health and sleep.
Biology
A creature of this size requires LOTS of food. The problem is - he isn’t given the correct amount. Why drain resources for an experiment that may not survive anyway? As such, Big Catnap is constantly just one bite off from a full belly.
His tank possesses MUCH greater quantities of poppy gas - however, it’s watered down. The gas:
Takes up to 10 minutes to knock out children and 30 for adults
Does not leach oxygen
Works slowly but surely to lull the victim to sleep
This is NOT how Smaller Bodies Catnap works. Her smoke is quick-working and oppressive while this Catnap works much more as a calm, steady, peaceful lull to sleep.

🔥🔨 Destroy-A-Toy Critters Mindmap
After Catnap was taken away, the Critters were never the same…

Claustrophobic and terrified of the dark
Always stays with at least one person; can’t handle being alone
Dating CraftyCorn
Frequently bursts into tears when reminded of traumatic events
🟠☀️ Dogday 🟠☀️
Deeply broken after Catnap’s disappearance
Believes that she has been murdered
Doesn’t smile, doesn’t even bother
Will defend the Critters with his life but will not defend himself
🟡⭐️ KickinChicken 🟡⭐️
Blind (one eye gouged out, the other not functioning)
Wears sunglasses 24/7 to hide his eyes
Not self-confident; fragile and traumatised
Jealous and nervous around able-bodied people
🟢⚡️ Hoppy Hopscotch 🟢⚡️
Paranoid and claustrophobic
Swears that she saw Catnap dragging a body
Sticks to Kickin constantly and helps him walk
Wants to bodybuild and learn self-defence
🩵🌺 CraftyCorn 🩵🌺
Still very anxious
Dating Bobby, sticks to her like glue
Defends Catnap’s memory but will break down in tears
Sticks to only painting happy things, avoids the memories of the fire
🔵💡 Bubba Bubbaphant 🔵💡
Constantly anxious
Paranoid that people are expecting him to do things he can’t do
Finds it difficult to concentrate and calm down
Often found alone frantically cramming knowledge in case he “needs” it
🩷🍎 PickyPiggy 🩷🍎
The only one who seems mostly unscathed
Nervous around using fire in the kitchen
Brings up her admiration for Catnap in casual conversation
Sometimes forgets that the incident even happened
And finally…
🟣🌙 Catnap 🟣🌙
Completely separated from the other Smiling Critters
No longer considers herself as part of them
Aches when thinking of Dogday and therefore tries to distract herself
Anxiety is gone
What happened?
Well, my friend.
This:
To summarise, Catnap no longer cares about keeping her violence a secret, and she punishes the entire Home Sweet Home dormitory for it…
❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙❌🩷
(This is legitimately super fun to write and I’m really happy with it :D)
THEM!! They're very squishy.

Just some quick sketches, no idea when I’ll finish them(if I finish them)
Okay. Not much new art, but more story-related stuff for this post.
I want to try and dive into how Doey and Gabby's relationship is after the events of Chapter 4 because there's... Potential. For some good ol' angst.
Kissy is missing from this post but I'd like to develop stuff with her too, ESPECIALLY her non-verbal communication aspect. I think it'd be really interesting if both her and Gabby learned ASL together so that they could both understand each other better.
Gave Ava a sort of more fleshed out design. Then later realized I basically gave her one of my siblings personality and I think that's hilarious. And of course I'm gonna keep it that way.
Since Gabby is a self-insert per say, I've gotta make it work with the OG plot of the story since he's too young to be an ex-employee of the factory :'))) (he's also French like I am... Which could result in some funny moments imo lmao) (I also REALLY need to change his name because I don't want him to be named like me so I've gotta work on that too)
Here's how he was before the events of PPT !
(Calling this the "Big Bro & Kids Shenanigans" AU because... Why not. I just like the name to be completely honest. But I'm open to name suggestions!)
I JUST...
wanted to see them living normal life...
Like cooking and watching movies...🥲
(Sorry for didn't draw ms.delight I forgot her)
Oh, also
Bonus
Sorry for the people who like dr.sawyer and leith
Cartoon! and Bigger Body!Smiling critters reacting to each other?
You really make me work hard, y’know?
I literally could just do tiny doodles but noooooo, I had to give each one of them an interaction, and not only that but also coloring every each of them. Ahhhhhh!!!!
This is what happened right???
