FADE IN.

INT. EREWHON PRISON – NIGHT

We see a very cluttered lab, filled with important scientific instruments as well as random glittery trinkets. A woman sits at her desk alone, dressed in a wrinkled lab coat, several empty energy drinks littered around her.

DR. JUPITER enters the room, holding a cup of morning coffee, and glances at the window.

DR. JUPITER

Have you…been working on that all night?

WOMAN

Yup!

(She jumps out of her chair.)

And I think Iโ€™ve found it, Iโ€™ve really got it this time! I mean, I hope–it didnโ€™t go so great before, but Iโ€™m (almost) positive now!

DR. JUPITER

Cut to the chase, show me it.

The first person to get all 6 correct will win a drawing of their Poptropican by me. (You can check out my gallery on DeviantArt or Instagram for a reference of my art.)

So send in your guesses to [email protected] for your chance to win. The results will be posted as soon as we have a winner. We’ll talk soon, pop on!

Clubhouse

Cozy Clubhouse Tour: Slanted Fish โœจ

Hey Poptropicans, welcome back to Slanted Fish’s clubhouse!

You might have seen my other crib with its displays of mystical objects, but this time we’ll be visiting another room within my aquarium home sweet home. Come on in! Let’s turn the mood lights on.

Can I get you something to drink? A hot beverage is always nice, and we have some bites in the fridge too. Don’t mind Mr. Fantastic Fox over there โ€” he just keeps guard over the valuables in the safe and guzzles away at the snacks. Sometimes you can catch him dancing to the beats playing upstairs in the AV entertainment corner!

Across from the kitchen on the other side, you’ll find a comfy nap spot, complete with a curtain cover to block out the outside world. Great for climbing into bed without climbing up anywhere!

Meanwhile, on the floor above, the pets have their chill-out space too. My kitty, El Mustachio Venti, quite likes curling up in the basketโ€”when the armadillo doesn’t beat her to it.

Further up, you’ll find my inflatable Poptropica blimp! You know you’re in the halls of a Poptropica explorer when you see one of these. Elsewhere, there’s an assortment of knickknacks I’ve collected over my travels, from adventuresome animals to hoards of books.

Now we get into the sanctuaryโ€”the bedroom proper! This is the place for lounging around in bed, watching the jellyfish float or seeing what’s on TV. Plus, I’m a proud plant parent and always looking to collect more greenery. And hey, my rainbow sweater matches the popsicle pic!

Finally, off to the top right, we have a little corner of madness. Who makes the best pose: me, the dragon, or the wild Venus flytrap?

That’s it for this cozy clubhouse tour. It’s been fun having you over, and you’re welcome back anytime! To visit in-game, add me on Poptropica (username:ย slantedfish) and click โ€œVisitโ€ next to my name (Friendly Fish) on your friends list.

By the way, you can share your clubhouse with readers of this blog by sending in a guest post! Find out more on ourย Write for the PHBย page.

See you next time onย Poptropica Clubhouse Tours!
