Many wander the cursed forest, but they are seldom lost. Rated T for death, implication of death, and discussion of death. That's the only thing dark about this blog y'all.
Final batch of blogtember prompts! Once again, prompts provided by @jazzy-art-time / @mod-jazzy!! Thank you for giving me a buncha stuff to do this month!
Elaborations under the cut:
Day 21: I decided the funniest thing to do for this was to swap the shiny status of my Eevee twins. Cream and Cheese who did this to you! Uncanny!
Day 22: Ok genuinely one of the scenes I'm most interested in writing. These three characters are super old conceptually and near and dear to my heart. Once I get to doing stuff with them I'm going to be so!!! Excited!!!!
Day 23: I checked and it turns out I don't have like any nature photography on my phone? So I looked up cave pictures on google and picked one to put my rats in. Hello Remulus and Atticus nice to see you
Day 24: Hmm....important Apricorn. Wonder what that's about hmmmm
Day 25: This one!! Vexed me!! Because a lot of the ships in my blogs feel like plot spoilers to talk about? Or at least the ones I like the most. So I picked Anneva and Reginald! Because I've mentioned Anneva on inquiries and I've drawn them both on here in the past. They're a comfort duo.
Day 26: If Paleo and Tide have one fan its me bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Initially I tried to draw him awkwardly giving her flowers but I couldn't get the pose right so instead they're going on a park date! Hi again Jazzy I love your slug and so does Paleo!!!! Their dynamic is fun and cute and I like them!!!!!!
Day 28: I think I mentioned it once or twice? These four on fugamsemidei are based on slugcats in Rain World. In fact the first time I drew them at all was in a big batch of Poke-RW doodles. I just decided I liked them enough to make them characters on the blog. And they fit with the rest of the cast well enough so I don't have any shame lmao
Day 29: Anyone remember this gem??? I do. I rediscovered it recently and went "oh. Oh this is a Gravity song woaw"
Day 29 again: So uh I tried really hard to figure out something for day 27's prompt but I genuinely could not find anything within the time frame. So instead I just did day 29 twice. Neura with this song. Because a lot of people are really unhappy because of her actions. She's to blame for so much strife and grief. Deep down and also not that deep at all she's overcome with guilt but she's not gonna change anything rip.
Day 30: The first ever blog post I made was a poorly-drawn Aspen on phantumpdaily. But that's not particularly interesting to look at, and also I've drawn Aspen just floating there on many occasions so that post isn't super unique. So, instead, I drew the first post on the rebooted version of that blog: the intro to asklucyphantump. That was more directly an askblog than phantumpdaily anyway so this isn't cheese I swear skdfjashdf
Blogtember prompts 11-20, once again courtesy of @mod-jazzy / @jazzy-art-time! Had some fun ones this time around!
Once again, elaborations under the cut:
Day 11: Tbh I try to make most of my OCs easy to draw so I wasn't sure who to pick for this. Ended up deciding on Neura, because she really takes no effort.
Day 12: I wouldn't say Maximus is by any means the most difficult character to draw, but I distinctly remember hating having to draw him back when totemrodents was still around. His shape was annoying and I could never keep the size of his ears consistent. So I felt it would be fitting to give it one more go for old times sake.
Day 13: painted-pokes barely existed, it got zero asks and like 6 followers total, but I remember liking the vague ideas I had about the characters and setting. But looking back on the last post I ever made on there, I realized how AWFUL it looked and just NEEDED to do it more justice. Hi Inverse bye Inverse
Day 14: Paleo is the character who gets the most physical abuse in all of my blogs I'm pretty sure. I didn't want to draw how he lost his foot, cuz that's a major plot spoiler. And I didn't want to draw the scene where he got the back scar, because I couldn't figure out the framing for it. So instead. Future injury :) I'm not elaborating :)
Day 15: Haha anyway happy family on the beach! Once I get to the part of fugamsemidei's plot where they go on their Plate Quest it's gonna be so fun to draw. Much more levity in that part of the plot
Day 16: Hi Jazzy!!!!!! Hi hi hi Jazzy I drew your lizard!!!!! I wouldn't say Jody's blog is my favorite blog of yours, I honestly couldn't tell you what my favorite is I like them all a lot (gun to my head I'd probably say wastelandlabs or flakenrudy). But! Jody is your favorite blorbo and I've never actually drawn proper Jody fanart for you!!!!!! So here she is!!!!!!!
Day 17: I don't think I've ever elaborated on Cootenany? He's a Xatu/Absol hybrid who lives in the facility. He's like half the reason most of the plot happens. I cut out the part of the conversation telling the ACTUAL prophesy he's giving right here cuz I want to keep that a secret for later, but I at least wanted to draw him cuz I don't think I have more than once.
Day 18: I thought really hard about it but I don't think I really.....cut out parts of stories very much? Or at least if I do I usually do it early enough in the plotting stage that nothing but random thoughts exist of it. So the only thing I could come up with for this one was Spoop the Ditto. Initially they were just....a regular Ditto with nothing special going on? Just the youngster of my Phantump group. But now they're like. An actual character with plot importance in lots of places. Idk when I'm ever getting to that but it's something.
Day 19: I have definitely not mentioned either of them anywhere, but all my blogs are in the same universe! And this is the og Arceus and Mew of that Universe! Dhaha and Leonen! The only blog I think they'll ever be relevant in is fugamsemidei for obvious reasons but yeah. Them. They're buddies :3
Day 20: Lucy...oh no Lucy, your whimsy....they stolt it away from u....
Blogtember prompts 1-10, curtesy of @mod-jazzy / @jazzy-art-time! Just the first ten for now so I can post these in three big chunks.
Elaborations n stuff beneath the cut cuz this is so many things:
Day 1: Aspen!!! Back in the old phantumpdaily dayssssss. blog that doesn't exist anymore but I'm nostalgic
Day 2: Monika! Who isn't going to be relevant until forever and even then I have no idea if she'll be more than mentioned in passing. But I wanted to actually design her so here she is
Day 3: Goooooodrair. Goodrair. Love her design lots
Day 4: Ok I couldn't actually think of a lot of funny panels off the top of my head. So I picked a bit from asktotemrodents. Where Maddie totally owns an anon who wants to eat them
Day 5: That one time I murdered my Eevee and she evolved post-mortem which was like. Maybe an emotional send-off? idk how I'm perceived
Day 6: Pre-splice Ark in the inquiriesofnothing Psuedomew tower. Is this worse than his canon fate? Probably
Day 7: I don't even need to elaborate we all know how much I love my spooky tree. Lucy Phantump loving hours are 24/7
Day 8: Slug parentssss who get to co-parent their shiny kids!! Imagine!!!
Day 9: Zoomed out a bit because the og panel only had his top half. But Candle abandoning Lucy! Because I do genuinely think that's a pretty emotional moment
Day 10: I think this was the only magic anon I can remember getting? The posts don't exist anymore but someone turned Lucy's toy Ponyta into a real Ponyta. I liked that, it was cute
Eden swishes faer tail back and forth in a attempt to loosen the child, to no avail
Despite this, the mew couldn’t help but stifle a small laugh as the child wiggled around.
Dysnomia glances at the scene with a side eye. A small wave of relief washing over the sylveon as the mew appeared to calm down a bit.
Eden continues to wave their tail back and forth, playfully swatting at the child

Enigma looks up, into the treetops. “We’d need to not only find the Grimray, a difficult task in a forest this large, but also convince them to revert us. Typically a Grimray casts curses to protect itself, and a Mew is quite a powerful creature, so we’d need to make quite a compelling case for ourselves if we want to be separated.” They explain. “And all this assuming our theory about the kind of Pokemon responsible is correct. For all we know, it could be a particularly adept Pokemon of another species, rather than an average member of a species that specializes in curses by default.”
Hohoho! Nergal is susceptible to the forest’s curse! Will the the curse take something, or will he leave unscathed? We’ll have to wait and see!
“...they typically also hold the power to lay curses upon locations as well, but we suspect that’s not at play here. The Mystery Zone likely nullifies that, being that it abides by its own rules first and foremost.” They explain. “And while we do appreciate your offer of assistance, we wish to reiterate: it curses as defense, and we do not want it to have reason to defend. Another powerful Pokemon present will do the opposite.”

“I have been on the move for so long, seen many beautiful things in my time, because I have never desired to sit still and stagnate. I want to continue to experience these new things the universe has to offer, and I would enjoy if my own could learn from that as well.
Home is not simply a fixed point on a map. Home can be anywhere you want it to be. Maybe ‘home’ is just this moment right now, surrounded by my friends and family, being able to experience life with them.
“Yet even so, we are fascinated by your idea of ‘home’. Can you truly make it be...wherever you are? What...power, such a concept holds. We can’t even...comprehend such a thing.”
