MISSING_NUMBERS

A PROPER BLOG FOR THE STORIES OF MISSING NUMBERS. Blog is run by: [Starry (@creatively-cosmic)] {Carrion (@viscarrion)} ((HELL (@hells1nfern0) )) 《Xen (@bugtini)》!

[themissingnumbers]

WELCOME.

This is a blog for all things Missing Numbers, an original story derivative of Pokemon and its Creepypastas, being developed by myself and several of our friends. Much of what has been posted so far focused on the Kanto part of the world, featuring points derivative of Glitchy Red, Fallen Leaf, Blue's Tears, Strangled Red, and more.

But there's so much more to see. From region to region, game to game, to the most recent Pokemon adventure, to the distant past of Hisui... Perhaps even across different worlds. Where should we begin? It's all up to you.

This pinned post will link to all necessary information, and will be updated as more is posted! Thank you.

This blog will contain:

Frequent Profanity, Body Horror, Gore, Dissociation/Derealization, Unreality, Child and Animal Abuse/Neglect, Child and Animal Death, Psychological Abuse/Manipulation, Major Character Death, and themes of Religious Trauma. Flashing, Glitching, and Eye-Straining Imagery will also be used often.

We will do our best to tag all heavy content appropriately, formatted as #thing and #thing tw. (however, we won't tag for the swearing, so please tread with caution regarding that.)

Disclaimer: The views and actions of the characters do not reflect the beliefs of the mods or anything personal against the askers. This is a work of fiction.

{Missing Numbers is now on Noterook!} https://noterook.net/book/themissingnumbers/

{We're not gonna stop posting here, we're just gonna be posting over there too!} {If you wanna refresh yourself on the blog, it'll be an easy way to do so as well! Since I'm slowly backposting all the old story posts on there, it'll be like getting to read through the updates in real time again :] }

[themissingnumbers]

what does this mean....

{If you're referring to this post, I will only say that "Something Somewhere Has Changed" is a tag we put on posts indicating a change to the blog in some way. Previously, it was used to indicate that there were new secrets to find on the blog.}

{I would suggest snooping around the desktop version of the blog, discussing theories in the replies of posts or checking out The Fanmade Detective Document if want to work with the community to solve puzzles}

[themissingnumbers]

IDK if the mods have seen the Pokémon Presents yet but:

As a fan of this blog, this was really funny!!!

MISSING NUMBERS ANIMATION DUMP!!!!!!!

compilation of stuff we've animated so far mostly unfinished animatics

[themissingnumbers]

Alright, time to stop beating around the bush. It's clear that fucking around trying to delay the inevitable is just going to break things. Personally, I'm ready to move on to the bathroom and finally see what our player character really looks like...

[ Finally we can get on with this.]

[ ...You hope it'll be okay. ]

[ Only one way to find out. ]

Are You Ready?

Yes

No

can we snoop around in Maple's room? just a quick peek?

[ ...A peek can't hurt. ]

It's messy, and the evening light is a bit stifled by the bookcase partially blocking the window. A heavy pair of work boots are haphazardly tossed in the middle of the floor, the laces undone and tangled. Like the rest of the house, it definitely needs a good cleaning, but it's... warm. Well lived in.

[ ...It's getting late. You really shouldn't linger.]

You close the door.

[Can I say something...?

I'm sorry. Really. I'm sorry for being such a nuisance.

To be honest, I'm scared for you. And I was worried that if I didn't get answers before you walked into that bathroom, that I'd never be able to. So I pushed, despite knowing the consequences, and it was really messed up and selfish of me. I swear I'll never do it again.

I know I've done nothing to deserve it, but I hope you can forgive me for that.]

[ ...It's okay. You... don't really know whats going to happen, so. it makes sense to be scared. ]

[ You'll... make sure you get those answers. Regardless of what happens. So don't worry, okay?]

FIRST | PREV | NEXT

[themissingnumbers]

whatever bad shit is about to happen in the bathroom, you guys are really insistent on getting to it, huh? why??

[ Because you have to, simple as. It's necessary.]

[ You're... not in that big of a rush, actually-]

[ -Yes you are.]

[ Well... Maybe you could rest a bit on the bed first or something? It looks pretty comfy, and your head still hurts a bit from earlier...]

[ You don't really have the Time for that, though, do you?]

[ It's pretty clear that the longer you dick around, the worse things get. You said you were going upstairs to wash your face, so that's what you should do.]

[ Besides- do you really want to keep the Professor waiting?]

[ ... ]

[Alright- This might be a bit difficult, especially since the universe isn't going wanna let you do it... and I'm so sorry in advance if it causes you any pain. But, if you're okay with doing so, could you try typing your name? Or, even just pressing the first letter key?]

[ Maybe... if you close your eyes, you could...]

(Flashing Lights Warning)

[...]

[ ...Your hands are shaking.]

[ And your head... Fuck. You did it again, didn't you?]

[ Just- Stop. You'll learn them eventually, so stop just. Breaking shit.]

[ ...You... don't think it'd be a good idea to try that again. You don't really... feel great.]

You step away from the computer.

[Okay... I'm sorry, I know I'm wasting time. I'm sorry, I'm sorry- I just have another idea, and need you to answer another question for me. And I know it's stupid, and weird, and you really don't wanna do it, but please bear with me.

Could you please tell me what layout the keyboard on the desk is—QWERTY, Dvorak, AZERTY, JIS—whatever it is, and if you have it memorized? "Memorized", as in, you could type on it without having to look at the keys. Do you know where every key is?]

[ ...The keyboard? ]

[ You... think you could type on it blind, maybe.]

[ What do you want to try and type?]

Ok… But concider taking a blanket…. Concider wrapping yourself in a blanket like a wizard…. Just a thought….

[ ...You consider it.]

…

[Hmm... Are there any drawers on the desk that I can't see? And what about the boxes? Is there anything in the half-open one?]

[ You look over the desk thoroughly, but alas, there are no hidden compartments or drawers to be found. Just varnished particle board that has the air of a recent yard sale purchase.]

[ The open box doesn't hold much in the way of secrets either - It just looks like a couple spare blankets and pillowcases, set aside just in case.]

[ Maybe it's a sign to move on? ]

Not an ask—just an observation!

Does anybody remember the wall phone we saw just before looking at the bookshelf upstairs? The one covered in sticky notes?

Something about it has been bugging me for a while. Well- not really bugging me, but like, scratching at my brain? Making me think about it? (I dunno—it’s a present thought every time I see the phone. Which is pretty often.) But nobody has mentioned it I don’t think-

One of the sticky notes said something like “Assistant 1 arrives Apr. 26”, which—if you go back to the very beginning of the blog/story—is the first post. So, that’s us (I’m pretty sure). Makes sense. But there’s a second sticky note that says “Call ___ abt 2nd assistant lead?”. (There is something there in the blank, but I’m not sure what it is. Part of a phone number? A name? “Ø6_v2”? I dunno—I’m blind and can’t tell.)

But Ace is potentially looking for (or into) a second assistant? Why? (It’s none of my business, really. Ace is the boss—they can do literally whatever they want. They probably just want us to take shifts so that nobody gets burned out + can have work getting done around the clock. But that’s just me guessing.) (Honestly, the fact that one was written as "Assistant 1" implies that there were going to be more Assistants. If there was just one, it would just be "Assistant", not "Assistant 1"-) Have they ever mentioned a second assistant (that isn’t Leaf, because she was hired far before us)? I don’t remember them doing so, but I have a terrible memory.

It's probably nothing, but it still stood out to me ever since I saw it. We could have a friend :D or a rival or something in the future. It would be neat.

But eh, that's just me rambling. Have a good day!

{ask is referring to the phone in this post}

{I will clarify something just cause I've realised its a quirk I have when handwriting stuff that the other mods don't- I write zeroes with a little slash through them (like ∅) to differentiate them from my Os :3! So the note there does read "Call 06_v2 abt 2nd assistant lead?", you did in fact read it correctly}

[themissingnumbers]

Oh there's DEFINITELY a Raikou burnt into that screen...
