Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Serious Heart. Enjoy!

Hello! Serious Heart here, with Chapter 2 of The Chronicles of Friendly Thunder, taking place on 24 Carrot Island. Enjoy!

(Start from Prologue) (Continued from Chapter 1)

NARRATOR:

Hello. The last time we were with Friendly Thunder, he woke up in a diner, met Dizzy Claw, and encountered an enigmatic girl at the factory. Now let’s get started!

FADE IN.

We see FRIENDLY THUNDER, DIZZY CLAW, and ICY SNAKE sitting at the factory. DIZZY CLAW quickly sees something blue near a window. He grabs it. They’re blueprints!

DIZZY CLAW:

Hmm, I think this will be important, will it?

Hey Poptropicans — pop in for the latest on social media, the only part of the Pop franchise that gets much updating these days! 🪐

Enjoy the latest fan art features from Pop’s Instagram stories, including running from spiders in krazytalez‘s Early Poptropica Island comic — and if you haven’t seen the previous parts, catch them on the artist’s IG page.

Meanwhile on Twitter, Pop Creator Jon Pitcher continues to share throwbacks from his career with the game, from the early days with Spy Island to a showcase of famous Poptropicans, including a not-so-subtle relabeling for Shark Boy/Guy, which is a whole story in itself. 🦈

All these nostalgic tweets coupled with Poptropica’s inactivity with the game and Creators’ Blog has some players wondering if the end is near for Pop. It’s only speculation, but it doesn’t help that Poptropica ignores the call-outs from fans across social media — even ours!

But while they may act as couch potatoes in that respect, they’re still busy pumping out memes and reacting to fan content on social media.

Poptropica reacts to the New York City blue couch meme.

Anyway, we’re sharing Pop-related social media posts from Jon Pitcher, Official Poptropica, and more on our Discord server, the PHC, so join us there for more updates! 🥳

Fanfic: The Adventures of Anna Gram 🕵️‍♀️ Prologue

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Silver Sword. Enjoy!

Hey Poptropicans! Before I start this new story, I just want to share with you that this fanfic idea is inspired by a comment from Magic Kid on another post of mine, The Story of White Cloud, Part 2. Now let’s begin.

It was a dark, starry night on Goofball Island. The stars didn’t light up anything in Dullsville, though, because it was so dull. Anna Gram had just become a detective, and she browsed the street for a mystery. She became hungry and hurried over to the Dusty Crust Bakery.

ANNA: “Hello! Seen any mystery?!”

Anna had just moved to Dullsville, but she had lived in Goofside for a while. So whenever she talked, she was super cheerful.

BAKER: “All I’ve seen is bread. Want some?”

ANNA: “Why are you so dull?”

BAKER: “Why are you so goofy?”

ANNA: “Because I’ve been living in Goofside!”

BAKER: “And I’ve been living in Dullsville. Now, would you like some bread or not?”

ANNA: “Yes!”

The baker handed Anna some bread.

BAKER: “Don’t pay. Money is colourful.”

Anna took a bite of the bread, or she would have, if she could bite it.

ANNA: “First mystery: find out why this bread is the opposite of normal!”

To be continued…
