Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Shy Scorpion. Enjoy!
Hello Poptropicans, and welcome to the next part of my fanfiction! Itโs Shy Scorpion and I know it’s been a while, but welcome to part 5. (Catch up on part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4 if you missed any of them.)
“The Princess and the Raven”
Scene 4:ย Snow White is sitting in Redโs Pizza Basket with some very familiar faces: Red, Cinder, and Amelia. They are all eating pizza while Red bakes some more at the counter.
SNOW WHITE:
Wow! It was lucky to meet you here, Amelia. Iโve seen you once, after Rumpelstiltskin was defeated, but we never really got to talk.
CINDER:
Yeah, youโre a great storyteller too, I loved hearing about your race against the Baron!
AMELIA:
Thanks, but I am so glad to meet all of you! Youโve all really caused a buzz among people on home island. Speaking of which, how’s it going with these boyfriends of yours?ย
CINDER:
Great! The huntsman and I are actually really alike, and that helps a lot. Weโve had some great conversations over cups of coffee.ย
AMELIA:
Nice! I prefer tea myself, but never mind, how about your boyfriend, Snow White?ย
SNOW WHITE:
(silent for a second) It’s good, actually, it’s great! I guess I always thought villains were all horrible people. But Iโm seeing now that actually some of them had good inside of them, they just needed the right person to bring it out.ย ย ย
AMELIA:
(smiles) Iโm starting to see that. Speaking of villains, have you guys heard the news about Rumpelstiltskin?
SNOW WHITE, CINDER, and RED:
No!ย
AMELIA:
He recently sent my friend, the adventurer one, on a quest to find and free the king of Fairytale Island.ย
RED:
Why would he do that? I thought he was obsessed with taking away everyone’s happy endings? Wonโt this make the prince happy?ย ย
AMELIA:
Iโm just as confused as you are! Once they found the king, he started crying about aโฆ queen or something? But Iโm not sure why this is a big deal.ย
SNOW WHITE:
(going pale) If the king comes back, do you think everything on Fairytale Island will go back to normal?ย ย
AMELIA:
(happily) Of course! (sees her face) Whatโs wrong?ย ย ย
SNOW WHITE:
I think I know why Rumpelstiltskin did what he did. To ruin my happy ending!
AMELIA:
What? Why?ย
SNOW WHITE:
If the king comes back, then my postponed wedding to the prince is back on again!ย
A bell dings, and another familiar face walks in.ย
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
(with a grin) Why, thatโs precisely the point!
I hope you liked this next part of my fanfiction! I was basing a lot of this around the new Fairytale Island side-quest, so if you’re not a member (like me) and want to find out what happened, the PHB has a walkthrough for Rumpel’s Challenge.
Did you find any of my easter eggs? Tell me your thoughts on this next part and where it could go in the comments. Next time, Poptropicans!ย
Hope you enjoyed this guest post by Shy Scorpion. If you did, you might also enjoy The Villain Saga, which inspired this fanfic!

HELLO THERE EVERYONE. CAPTAIN CRAWFISH HERE. MY RABBIT… ACQUAINTANCE? I CAN’T QUITE CALL HIM A FRIEND. HE SAID THAT TODAY IS INTERNATIONAL TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY, WHICH I FIND ABSOLUTELY ABSURD. YOU REALLY NEED DAYS FOR EVERYTHING?
ANYWAY. I WANTED TO CLEAR UP SOME THINGS, BECAUSE SOME OF YOU ARE TRULY BECOMING AN EMBARRASSMENT TO US VILLAINS.
FIRST. I BEG–NO, I NEVER BEG! I DEMAND THAT YOU STOP WITH THIS WHOLE “ARRR ME HEARTIES” STUFF! EVEN IF WE HAVE OUR WAY OF SPEAKIN’, WE DON’T HAVE MAGGOTS FOR BRAINS! MOST PIRATES COME FROM AROUND THE WORLD, MANY OF US FROM EUROPE OR ASIA. ME PERSONALLY, I’M FROM BRITAIN.
I CAN’T REMEMBER EVER SAYING “ARRRR” EITHER. THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING SOMEONE MADE UP IN FICTION TO MAKE US SEEM AS STRANGE AS THOSE ALIENS MORDRED TALKS ABOUT.
EITHER WAY, I JUST WANTED TO CLEAR THAT UP SO YOU KIDS COULD STOP MAKIN’ FOOLS OF US.
YO HO HO AND A BOTTLE OF ROOT BEER BECAUSE THERE’S NO GOOD STUFF HERE
– CAPTAIN CRAWFISH ๐ฆ
The Big Sleep: A pirate just can’t get any rest around here.
Aye, so it appears Crawfish somehow bent the rules o’ time ‘n space t’ access me account. He also appears t’ nah understand wha’ the CAPS LOCK be. Me deepest apologies fer any confusion, but ahoy, nah me fault!
Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Shy Scorpion. Enjoy!
Hello! Shy Scorpion here with the next part of my fanfiction. In case you missed it, catch up onย part 1,ย part 2, and part 3 here.
“The Princess and the Raven”
Scene: 1:00 p.m. at the Ye Olde Roastery Co. Ringmaster Raven is sitting under an umbrella waiting, half nervous and half excited. He keeps adjusting his signature top hat. Then Snow White arrives, looks around, spots Raven, and smiles.
SNOW WHITE:
Hi! Iโm sorry Iโm a little late, my wolf Pepperoni had to go out.
RAVEN:
No, it’s okay! Shall we order?
They go to the window and each order a coffee, then return to their table. Both of them are all smiles.
RAVEN:
So, you have a wolf, an interesting choice.
SNOW WHITE:
Yep, but I love Pepperoni, he is really sweet. Okay, what is one super random fact about you?
RAVEN:
(thinks for a moment) I can remember every face Iโve ever seen, does that count?
SNOW WHITE:
WOW! That is so cool!
Raven smiles, then a bell dings. They get up and get their coffees then return to their table. Snow White opens her mouth and closes it, then does it again. Raven calls her out and asks what is the matter.
SNOW WHITE:
(hesitantly) Can I ask you something, about your past?
RAVEN:
(face flushes) Sure.
SNOW WHITE:
(rapidly) Well, were you born with wings? Did you really start the fire? Why did you get left behind? Are your parents just like you?
RAVEN:
(flustered) Well, um, letโs see, what?
SNOW WHITE:
(calms down) Iโm sorry, I just want to know who you really are, not what some newspaper says.
RAVEN:
Okay, my parents were normal Poptropicans, but for some reason the mixture of their genes caused a rare mutation. It gave me wings and feathers. They raised me as best they could but one day in a freak accident they died. I survived and ran away and just started wandering around until I got to a small town. Then the citizens found me and the rest is history.
SNOW WHITE:
Wow.
RAVEN:
Yeah, now Snow White, you have to tell me who you are.
SNOW WHITE:
Well, Iโm technically a princess of a medium-sized kingdom. But my whole life I wanted to be someone else, a veterinarian! Unfortunately, my father betrothed me to a whiny prince. But when Rumplestiltskin kidnapped the king of Fairy Tale Island, it threw off the whole thing. So until they find him, the wedding is off and I can go live my dreams!
RAVEN:
So, you got your happy ending?
SNOW WHITE:
(smiles) Yeah, I guess I did.
They chat happily for a while longer, then they both get up and throw away their coffee cups.
SNOW WHITE:
Thanks for the lovely coffee and talk. I hope we can do this again soon.
RAVEN:
Yeah, I agree. Letโs definitely do this again, bye!
I hope you enjoyed it! Feel free to tell me in the comments what you think should happen next!
I also would like to give a shout out to another AMAZING fanfiction called “The Villain Saga” by MaryannTheConquerer here on the PHB. Episode 2.2 was just recently posted, and this saga was part of what inspired me to write my own Poptropica fanfiction. So if you like mine, feel free to check hers out. Well thatโs it for now, see you next time Poptropicans! ๐
Just brew it.
Hope you enjoyed this guest post by Shy Scorpion. If you did, you might also enjoy The Villain Saga, which inspired this fanfic!

DIRECTOR D. and MADEMOISELLE MOREAU are in their office, waiting during another break between patients.
MOREAU
So, whatโs taking so long? We have them, letโs go.
DIRECTOR D.
Theyโve been tightening security even more than usual, and it doesnโt help that any of the helicopters have to be permitted by the computers in that โoff-limitsโ upper floor.
MOREAU
Ah yes, Jupiterโs lab. Hasnโt Black Widow entered many highly-guarded museums before? She ought to be able to do something.
DIRECTOR D.
I asked her, andโฆ
CUT TO BLACK WIDOW laughing for a solid few seconds, before answering dead-faced.
