Natticus' Blog

Just another digimon on the internet~ [OC Digimon Ask Blog - SFW]

[natticusthegomamon]

Happy New Year and goodbye! Not planning to do much here anymore (in case you couldn’t already tell by the lack of posts). Once I decide which username to use [either Natticus or NatticusTheGomamon] I’ll be posting over on cohost! Right now the daily gomamon blog is the most active, and I’ll appear there occasionally. So long, and thanks for all the marching fish! :3

[natticusthegomamon]

Enjoy your one big holiday, whatever it is! If ya don't do any special thing then just chill, eat, and sleep, that's fun too :3

Gomamon Day is THIS FRIDAY! GET HYPED!!1!

I originally established Gomamon Day back in 2017, I wrote a small FAQ about it back then: https://tumblr.com/gomamonday/168174866156/gomamon-day-2017, here’s an updated version:

Why a digimon?

I’ve seen a few days for celebrating other digimon (Flamedramon, Renamon), as well as days to celebrate pokemon (such as 7/28 as Popplio Day), and figured it would be nice to celebrate a specific digimon species; not necessarily “Jo’s Gomamon”, although that is the one that most digimon fans are familiar with.

Why Gomamon?

Many years ago, along with Patamon and countless virus types, he was established as one of my favourite digimon. I quickly got tired of the Adventure anime and am mostly familiar with them through the old PS1 games. Over a decade ago I decided to begin collecting digimon merchandise, with a main focus on Gomamon and Patamon. Over the years more recently, they appear to me as a sort of embodiment of positivity and happiness, and have helped me get through a lot of negative or otherwise not-so-great times in my life. So for me personally I think having one day to celebrate them would be great to show others how awesome this underappreciated digimon is!

Why December 9th?

December 9th is the day I got a special Gomamon custom-made plushie of my own; in fact, he’ll be 9 years old this year! His name is Natticus, and you can follow his cohost once he decides which username to use (Natticus or NatticusTheGomamon on cohost) or check out his old tumblr archive @natticusthegomamon​. He was made by magnastorm on DeviantArt and is one of the most popular “Gomamon” art submissions there! The date also correlates to the same month Gomamon was first revealed in the Digimon Pendulum Version 2 (Deep Savers) in December 1998.

How do I celebrate?

You can draw or write about them, take some photos if you have a collection (no matter whether it’s gigantic or just one plushie), make a photo story of your own Gomamon’s adventures, livestream a digimon game (Gomamon is obtainable in Digimon Survive, Cyber Sleuth, Hacker’s Memory and Next Order!) or just reblog some relevant posts~ Make a Gomamon OC (or ask an OC owner to draw theirs!) You’re free to @ or submit posts to this account anytime from now until then, or you can make your own post(s) and tag them with at least one of these hashtags below so I can find them to reblog here!

#gomamonday #gomamon day

Any rules?

No negative/hateful posts about anyone or mon; we can all love Gomamon without being mean to other monsters right? While I’d like the day’s celebrations to stay SFW, if you do make other content (NSFW or “SFW fetish” content) please do not directly tag it under #GomamonDay, use something different like #GomamonDayNSFW instead. Late posts are okay, I’ll likely be celebrating at least all weekend long!

Feel free to ask/message me if you have any other questions, ideas or suggestions! Thanks!

[natticusthegomamon]

It’s me, I’m the whole reason this is now a thing >:3 Does anyone wanna draw me for the occasion? I got a shiny new reference art sheet! (more to come of my digivolutions later~)

[natticusthegomamon]

Am contemplating which name to go with over on cohost dot org; Natticus or NatticusTheGomamon? I’m not always a Gomamon, though that’s what most folks know me as now #DigimonProblems

In the meantime, check out the rest of the Gomamon pod along with Gomamon Day 2022 posts coming December 9 and (SFW) re-shared posts over there now! :3

Incomplete Ask Meme from beyond the drafts

[[ So I dug up some old files recently that had a draft of a meme I never completed. I had a good laugh at Zarrus and Natticus being lil shits as usual XD Though it is still incomplete please enjoy lol ]]

Questionnaire Meme!

A. Character Names: Natticus, Milus & Zarrus

B. Fill in the questions/statements as if you were the Characters.

C. Tag as many friends/followers as you want to do this meme!

1. What is your name?

Natticus: I’m Natticus, and this is my tumblog :3

Milus: Hi, my name is Milus *waves*

Zarrus: Hey, it’s the real boss right here, Zarrus ;3

2. Do you know why you were named that?

Natticus: I decided I wanted a name so made one up. It’s my own, no one else has it~

Milus: Well I was playing some video games and one monster’s name stood out, so I decided to use it as my player name. And then figured why not offline too? ^^;

Zarrus: I figured since “boss” wasn’t a real name so I decided on Zarrus-

Natticus: Is that a mix of “Zack” and “Walrus”? :p

Zarrus: Shut up Red! I bet your name is a mix of “Nautilus” and “Narcissus”, so that’d make you a selfish shellfish! AHAHAHAHAA! XD

Milus: …I hate to say it, but that was actually clever.

Natticus: Noooo, Milus not you too! D:

B. Fill in the questions/statements as if you were the Characters.

C. Tag as many friends/followers as you want to do this meme!

1. What is your name?

Natticus: I'm Natticus, and this is my tumblog :3

Milus: Hi, my name is Milus *waves*

Zarrus: Hey, it's the real boss right here, Zarrus ;3

2. Do you know why you were named that?

Natticus: I decided I wanted a name so made one up. It's my own, no one else has it~

Milus: Well I was playing some video games and one monster's name stood out, so I decided to use it as my player name. And then figured why not offline too? ^^;

Zarrus: I figured since "boss" wasn't a real name so I decided on Zarrus-

Natticus: Is that a mix of "Zack" and "Walrus"? :p

Zarrus: Shut up Red! I bet your name is a mix of "Nautilus" and "Narcissus", so that'd make you a selfish shellfish! AHAHAHAHAA! XD

Milus: ...I hate to say it, but that was actually clever.

Natticus: Noooo, Milus not you too! D:

3. Are you single or taken?

Natticus: We have a tamer, so are we taken? o.O

Milus: Yes, I suppose so, no renegade digimon here. Well, Zarrus is debatable...

Zarrus: Heh, even if I was single, I'm too good for you internet chum anyways, too low tier.

4. Any Abilities or powers?

Natticus: I can swim, smash ice, endure cold temperatures, dive in deep water and summon fish buddies! :3

Zarrus: We can all do that though, you ain't special. Forget cold weather though, that ain't me.

Natticus: I thought you couldn't dive where ya can't see?

Zarrus: Then I can just evolve and use that, uhh, whatsit. Echos?

Milus: Yes, echolocation is very useful in dark water, it's like seeing, but without your eyes. I've never been able to use it myself, but it's an interesting and useful ability!

Zarrus: Yea, what about you?

Milus: Oh, when I evolve I get oppose-able thumbs. Great for playing playing video games :3

Zarrus: *eye roll* Typical.

5. What’s one thing you like and dislike?

Natticus: Only one of each? In before Zarrus says his favourite thing is himself :b

Zarrus: Would you shut up?! Ugh. Anyways, if you exclude eating, which is always good, a thing I like is surfing! It's sooo much fun, see, this guy knows how to flow~ And something I don't like, well, excluding Red-

Natticus: Hey! Rude!

Zarrus: I guess it would be de-volving into a baby form. You're pretty useless at everything when you're a weak little splat, ya know?

Milus: I like video games, they're awesome forms of entertainment~ :D I don't like having my tail pulled, so don't do it :<

Natticus: I like watching movies with Fandramon, they're a good low-energy way to pass time together! Bonus if there's snacks to eat too :3 I don't like taking baths, they suck :/

6. What is your eye color?

Natticus: Teal!

Milus: Light green.

Zarrus: Mine are green too, but an olivey-green I guess.

7. How about your hair color?

Natticus: I have a red mane :3

Zarrus: Mine is orange, bright and awesome!

Natticus: No kidding, you can spot it from super far away...

Milus: Mine's a less bright of an orange compared to yours Zarrus ^^;

8. Have you got any family members?

Natticus: Family? Probably, but I don't know any in particular. I mean, I hatched from a digiegg and  there wasn't anymon around.

Milus: I'm sure there's ways to have your data analyzed to find out, but that may not really be beneficial for anything except knowing your evolutionary potential. I don't personally know any either.

Zarrus: I was buddies with some other aquatic 'mons back in the digital world. We'd beat up bullies and break stuff for fun! :D

Milus: Zarrus that's not a family, that sounds like a gang :/

Zarrus: So, what's the difference?

Milus: "Family" members share derivative data that can be traced back to one or more contributing or related sources, for examp-

Zarrus: No, wait, no, forget it, I'm sorry I asked. Sounds complicated.

9. Oh? How about pets?

Natticus: Not really...do the marching fishes count? If so then I have...a lot. heh.

Zarrus: I guess we all sort of do then.

Milus: Fandramon has pets; mostly reptiles and an aquatic one. Unsure if "pets by association" really count ^^;

10. That’s cool, I guess. Now tell me something about yourself.

Zarrus: Is that not what we've been doing this whole time...? WHO CAME UP WITH THIS THING?!

Natticus: Well, uhhh, I've got a whole bunch of cool evolutions! See? ~evo line link~ :3

Milus: I just realized, even though Zarrus has the most evolutions between all 3 of us, he doesn't have a non-standard form-

Zarrus: And what the heck is that supposed to mean, are you calling me inferior?! You lookin' for a smackdown? Huh?!

Milus: I'm just saying, I have a Blizzarmon form and Natticus has his Depthmon form. This isn't a fight, it's a civilized discussion about evolutions. What I meant is, not everyone has identical coding even though we have the same rookie forms right now. Calm your tail ;>_>

Natticus: If that's the case then that also means we're not related at all right? Phew, it would be awful to be related to you Zack :b

11. Do you have any activities/hobbies you like to do?

12. Have you hurt anyone in any way before?

Natticus: We're digimon, what do you expect?

Milus: Well yes, conflicts with other digimon usually result in injuries.

13. Ever... Killed anyone before?

Natticus: Yep, some mons just don’t know when to leave me alone so ya know I had to do it to em. No regrets >:3

Milus: I... try not to honestly ^^;

Zarrus: Well yea of course, it’s mon-fite-mon out in Net Ocean-

Natticus: Yea but you’ve probably died more time than the mons you’ve killed :b

Zarrus: Shut it Red! No one asked that question!

14. What kind of animal are you?

Natticus: We're digimon ._.; Though compared to other animals from this world I guess we're kinda like seals or sea lions right?

15. Name your worst habits?

16. Do you look up to anyone at all?

17. Are you Gay, Straight or Bisexual?

18. Do you go to school?

Zarrus: Pffft, digimon don't go to school! Screw that noise.

Natticus: I don't, and Fandramon doesn't go to school either. Sounds boring, except for swimming. And lunch. Those'd be my best-scored classes :3

Milus: Even though we all don't go, I would like to attend one sometime, there seems to be a lot of opportunities to learn new things there *^*

19. Ever wanna get married and have kids?

Natticus: What's with all this stuff about kids? There was a question about them in the other meme thing too. They look like little goatmon! But what would you want them?

Zarrus: And what's a "Married"? Where do you find it? 

20. Do you have any fangirls/fanboys?

21. What are you most afraid of?

22. What do you usually wear?

Natticus: Nothing! X3 It would be neat to wear some clothes sometime for a change though...

Zarrus: You're weird. None of us wear anything in this form, since it's not like anything'd fit anyhow.

Natticus: Could've fooled me, you're always tumbling through the laundry basket, thought you'd try something on since you're in there XD

Zarrus: Shut it Red, I do what I want! It's like swimming, only not.

Natticus: Well when you tip it over and wipe-out then yea, I can see that X3

Milus: Hey 'mons let's not start, thanks! ^^;; My other forms have some clothing or armour and things, but not this one.

23. What’s one food that tempts you?

Natticus: Just one? Shrimp is my favourite, so that'd be it :3

Milus: Just about anything cooked in tempura batter, so crispy and yummy~

Zarrus: Hmmmm, I like freshly caught fish, I'd have to say my favourite from the human world is Yellowtail Snapper; See how delicious they look?!  ...Ah damn, now I'm hungry -_-; 

24. Am I (the memer/asker) annoying you?

Natticus: Noooo of course not! Fandramon you're my tamer and therefore my super awesome best friend! *^*

Milus: No, obviously, I do enjoy your company here in the human world :3

Zarrus: Ya think I'd stick around here if I didn't love ya? ;3 Whoever made this meme thing is a lil annoying tho, not gonna lie, I don’t get most of these questions

[[Fandramon: lol you 'mons XD]]

25. Night Owl or Early Bird?

Natticus: We're not birds, we're digimon ._.;

Zarrus: So which would I rather be, a Birdramon or an Owlmon? What is with these stupid questions? ;>_>

Milus: I think it means what time of day do you prefer, though I just sleep whenever so I don't really have a preference.

Natticus: I can stay up late better than wake up early I guess.

Zarrus: I dunno if I count as an early type but when it gets dark out usually that’s a sign to get some sleep. So again, because these questions are so dumb I can't answer 'em right :/

26. What class are you? Low class, Middle class, or High class?

Zarrus: So, uh, at rookie level does that make us middle class or? What the hell is this ranking system all about?

Natticus: Maybe you rank up depending on how many evolutions you have...?

Zarrus: I'd beat the both of ya then~

Milus: I think it's a ranking system humans use, but I have no idea what it's for. Not evolving though, at least that much I can say.

27. How many friends do you have?

28. Any thoughts on pie?

Natticus: Pie! You can eat it, therefore it's good.

Zarrus: There's fruit pie and meat pie, but is there fish pie? o.O

Milus: There could be, the "pie" is just the outer crust that holds the contents, right?

Natticus: Then we should make some and eat them! :3

30. Favorite drink?

31. What’s your favorite place?

32. Are you interested in anyone?

33. If you’re a girl, what’s your cup size?

Nattucis: Uh...

Milus: I don't really think this applies to any of us here ^^;

Zarrus: Boring! Next question!

34. Would you rather swim in an ocean or a lake?

Milus: A swim is a swim no matter where, no preference here. Just no bathtubs, that's too small ^^;

Zarrus: Gotta be out in the open ocean, lakes are kinda lame in comparison. Plus, you can't surf waves in a lake!

Natticus: I hate to agree with Zarrus, but yea, I like the ocean more too; lakes can be nice but they can also be muddy and shallow. The underwater plants and weeds don't help when you're swimming either.

35. What’s your type?

Natticus: Virus~ :3

Milus: Vaccine.

Zarrus: Data! Best there is! *puffs chest*

36. Any fetishes?

Zarrus: Well, I like--

Milus: Whoa, hold on, nope, no, stop, this blog is supposed to stay clean ;>_>

Zarrus: Damn it, the one time when I get a chance to answer a question and ya gotta ruin my fun :/

Natticus: Moving along...

37. Seme or Uke?

Natticus: What? What language is this? What is it? ...Does this have any relation to the question before it? ;>_>

Zarrus: I'm with Red on this one, the hell does that even mean?

Milus: ...U-uhm, well, it means like, y'know, are you dominant or submissive type? *blush*

Zarrus: I dominate everything! Anyone else is a weak ass follower! ...Uh, which one's that?

Natticus: *facepaw* Why. Why this? What is this meme even trying to accomplish here?

Milus: Leeeet's just go to the next question, okay? ^^;

38. Camping or indoors?

39. Are you mostly a Carnivore, a Omnivore or a Herbivore?

Natticus: I like eating meat so I guess that makes me a carnivore.

Zarrus: Total carnivore, ya don't get tough eating weeds.

Milus: I'll eat what I can find, I'm not too picky ^^; That makes me an omnivore I suppose.

40. Finally, body type? Like Skinny, Chubby etc.

Natticus: Well, Zarrus is pretty small and kinda fat32--

Zarrus: Describe yourself not me you idiot! And I am not! Grrrr! I’m just ya standard gomamon type, only a data type so way cooler (˘ ω ˘)

Natticus: Because I've lived most of my lifetime as a Gomamon, just to conserve energy for battles and all that, this form has grown to a, uhhh, less baby type shape I guess...? Milus! What are words?

Milus: You’re thinking of “proportional”, or, a form more similar to a fully-grown animal. As opposed to a “juvenile”, adolescent or neonate form. As for me, I suppose as a gomamon I’m sort of a mix of the human world seal and sea lion animals in terms of shape... admittedly more like a seal though ^^;

Soup for Dinner - Attempt 1

Natticus: I’m gonna make some dinner for Fan since she’s been sick. Luckily there’s a can of soup I can make! It’ll be easy~

Hmm, this one doesn’t need the spin cutter, I can just pull it open! Now to put it inside the pot... Darn, I gotta open it all the way, only the soup water came out! No problem, I’ll jus-

...Oh. I didn’t think I’d break it (^ᆺ^); Guess I’m too strong for this weak metal can ( ˇωˇ ) Time to try opening this another way;

With a knife! I’d’ve used my claws but Fan says not to put them in the food :<

There! All in the pot! Now all I gotta do is put the lid on top and turn on the heat of the stove~ This isn’t so bad :3

~~~10 minutes later~~~

Okay, just added some crackers *nom* yep they’re still good... and some orange juice! I heard it helps you heal when you’re sick. Hope Fan likes it~ :3

[[I recently finished Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition on Steam after starting it like 5 times across various versions/platforms lol. Here’s my final team! Did take some creative liberties for Natticus, as Leviamon was about the only water/virus mega available. Plesiomon was somehow stronger than MetalSeadramon for Zarrus too. Cassius hasn’t been revealed on the blog yet, and he doesn't have a physical form so no photos irl with the rest of the goma pod. (I’m still working on figuring out his goma +evos designs, don’t even have a ref sheet for him yet. Too broke to afford a plush atm tho...) ]]

GomAugust 2021 doodle roundup

[[Posted some scribbles on @DailyGomamon on twitter, figured I’d post ‘em here too. Sorry I just haven’t been “feeling it” lately with digimon so that’s kinda why I left. That and tumblr supposedly died with the lewd stuff getting banned lol]]

Day 1: Alternate Type - Plant

This is just Zasso (my Veggiemon OC) as a Gomamon. I think the silt eyes make him look a little less cute lol. The fuzz around his neck is from his Argomon form, (the eye patterns might’ve been a lil too freaky lookin’ on a goma xD)

Day 2: IRL Gomamon Pose (v2) - Ref photo here

Pretty self explanatory. Sea lions are so long tho so I had to shorten the butt half a little for the gomamon version. Not sure if it’s OK as is, or should have a chin/lower muzzle line/a line above the muzzle (front view goma problems lol)

Day 3: Alternate Universe (Lilo & Stitch) 

Gomamon as an illegal genetic experiment. Inspired by @Konnestra’s (on twitter) alien/mon crossover arts, they’re making some original designs now too, go check ‘em out!

Day 4: Redraw! - original doodle here

 My Asta-Gomamon doodle I originally drew in 2011, now redrawn in 2021! I might’ve improved a little I guess *shrug*
