what about wildfire

I think Wildfires are supposed to be engineers... or something.

I can't decide if Daphne Dreadnaught is Wildfire or Seraphim.

@exist101 I blame you for this idea

Basically a small story of Steamworks, mainly centered around Zack, Sprocket, and Sully before the events of the island. Under a keep reading because I got carried away

Sully’s Garage had strong metal pipes running through the place, transporting water and heat from the furnace- located in the corner of the building- around the place and to Sully’s Steam-Powered Paraphernalia, the pipes were kept separated, curving around one another whenever they intended to overlap in locations. Crates of mechanical parts were spread around the place and a few screws had fallen out, glinting against the light provided, while the tools were neatly hung up near a table with gears and a small can of oil. Since many of the machines the islanders have created were steam-powered, the oil was only used to make sure that the metal wouldn’t rust but it was also the strongest smell in the garage.

The sound of metal clanking against metal filled the air of the garage as a young man worked to adjust one part of the machine he was working on. The man had red hair and pale skin, though his face had freckles revealing the time in the sun he had spent previously. His brown gloves currently wielding a wrench as the suit was leaned down in front of him. Sighing he ran his fingers through his hair, the tangles getting caught and the man winced at the accidental tug. He attached the wrench to the toolbelt that hung loosely around his waist as he moved to grab the welding equipment, thankfully having enough sense to readjust his goggles - circular ones with a gold tint around the lenses- over his eyes. His brown welding jacket and heavy brown boots had already been put on over his light blue shirt and dark blue pants. There was only a moment of hesitation as he glanced over at the garage door, making sure no one was paying a surprise visit before having the device hum to life and he did brief segments to weld the two metal pieces together, making sure to look away right before each push of the button.

The machine itself was a maintenance mech, a mech suit that the young man had designed to be multi-functional. What the multi-functions were? He didn’t quite know yet, but that was the fun of being an inventor, trying out and designing new attachments. However, the suit itself wasn’t quite done yet. The young man huffed and went to the chalkboard, quickly scribbling down the two parts he still needed. The two parts would be easy to install and were all ready to go, the mech crank was currently in his room as he had pulled an all-nighter to finally get it done but had just forgotten it when it was time to head down to the garage and the steam motor were sold by Sully, another inventor that let him rent out her garage.

The sound of a propellor approaching suddenly filled the young man’s ears along with the faint sound of footsteps following behind. A loud squeak was heard as the mechanism he was standing on was lowered to the ground, followed up with an almost human but the electrical buzz giving away the machine, “Zaaaack!”

Zack turned to the two figures approaching with a smile and a small wave. The first that quickly approached, stopping just before crashing into him, was a robot he had built that he had named Sprocket. Sprocket was a smaller robot, at least compared to ones the other inventors have been building around town, but had more expressions that Zack had built in with a system where Sprocket would have his head blocked from view by metal plating, similar to a knight’s helmet movement, before coming back into view with the different emotion. Sprocket also had two spindly arms and was light in weight. Considering that his main way of moving was to use his propellor to fly, this was not a surprise. The second figure was another short haired red head with pale skin, Sully. Her goggles were adjusted to the top of her head and had a brown vest with a blue shirt with the sleeves rolled up, wearing similar pants and boots to the ones Zack was wearing, and had a more peach-like color for the lipstick she wore. In her hand was a small bottle filled with water.

“Thanks for letting me borrow Sprocket for a bit. He’s been a lot of help and the customers love him.” Sully said, handing him the bottle of water, which Zack gladly accepted as he now realized just how thirsty he was. He shrugged as he struggled to open the bottle with gloved hands and responded, “It’s no trouble, Sprocket likes your shop so he never really gets bored there. Technically, I should be thanking you for watching him while I was busy.”

Sully glanced behind Zack and over at the Maintenance Mech with a raised brow. She commented, “Ah, still working on your latest project I see.”

“Yeah, it’s been-“ Zack was saying before being cut off by Sprocket saying, “Three months and fifteen days.”

A look over at the powered down machine had Sprocket add, “and counting.”

Zack laughed at that before finally managing to get the bottle open and taking a sip of the water before pulling the bottle away and stare at it for a moment. Tilting her head, Sully asked if something was wrong. Shaking his head, Zack responded that the water just tasted a little strange, but may have been from his lack of drinking anything all day. He pretended not to notice the disapproving stare down that Sully gave him as he awkwardly took another sip.

“Well, what else do you need to do before I finally get my garage back?” She asked, returning to her usual state with a playful jab of her elbow to Zack’s arm. It didn’t hurt, but he still rubbed the area that was hit. Zack responded that he just needed a steam motor from Sully’s store and the mech crank at his home and then he would have all the parts he would need to complete the device. His eyebrows raised as a low hiss of an inhale was heard and he asked if something was wrong. Sully’s face scrunched up slightly as she informed Zack, “I wish you told me earlier, I just sold the last one. They’re installing them into the bridges to help them raise and lower more smoothly.”

His face fell at the news and let out a small sigh. Not wanting to see Zack in such a sad state, Sprocket piped up, “Well, the factory should be making a fresh batch since they’re so popular right now. You could get one then!”

“Yeah, I’ll place an order and store one away. Shouldn’t be a problem.” Sully added with a small nod. Zack lifted his head and gave the two of them an excited smile, “Really? You’d do that for me?”

“Of course, you’re my best friend!” That came from Sprocket.

”Yeah, you’ve been stinking up my garage. Need to get you out before it’s permanent for future customers.” That came from Sully.

Zack let out a small laugh before setting his toolbelt on the table and suggesting, “Hey, why don’t we take a walk around town? I heard they were installing a new platform system.”

“That’s what you’re excited about? I’ve seen it and it looks like it’s gears would stop turning in… I give it about a year.” Sully responded, crossing her arms. Shrugging, Zack told her that he still wanted to see it, and maybe they could suggest improvements if it was really that bad which made her wave her hand in dismissal and say, “Well, you have fun, but I should head back to shop. Captain Ziggs is supposed to come by some time today and I don’t want to miss him.”

“I can go with you, Zack!” Sprocket offered, which made Zack smile and nod. After their plans were made, the three walked out of the garage, leaving behind the strong smell of oil and the faint smell of freshly cut grass behind.

tell me about your poptropica oc

Blue Fire's home (the original home island with monkey wrench) was destroyed in a battle between a hero and a villain, so she grew up on the home island that we're familiar with. Her first adventure was Poptropicon, she snuck in not expecting the villain to actually come to life. When the portal opened (at the end of the 3rd island) she was sucked in. She was assumed dead, so when she jumped out of another it was quite a suprise (even more so she's kept the powers and glows) and started adventuring. Honestly she's considered something of a cryptid herself at this point, and no one realizes that she's just a kid trying her best.

Zack

Zack is a ruddy Abyssinian!

[sgtapollo]

HEY POPTROPICANS2!! 2! 2

I wanna ask you guys to suggest me poptropica characters for me to draw as tf2 mercs!!

(Engineer and Medic is already suggested with Zack and Harold Mews)

[g00mbers]

Made a Poptropica Oc , His name's Zany Claw "Zack" and he's a Therapist , which unfortunately means he has to deal with some "questionable" people , Aka Myron Van Buren going to mandatory Prison therapy.

[winterwump]

🤍More Random Lookism Headcanons🤍

I think that touchscreen phones, as well as touchscreen menus in stores/restaurants, overwhelm Johan a lil bit so he tries to avoid them. (It’s hard tho cuz they’re everywhere)

I like to believe that Vasco has/had a Lego display collection. He takes great pride in it!!!

Large headphones are very uncomfortable for Jace, but Bluetooth earbuds make his ears look bigger by comparison. So if you ask Jace about it, he’ll say he’s a lose-lose situation either way (lol)

Mira was a Poptropica kind of kid, while Zack was a Newgrounds or CoolMathGames kind of kid. (Idk it makes sense in my head💀)

Zack got Mira to play Fireboy & Icegirl on more than one occasion.

In her free time, Lua is a true crime girlie. She got into it cuz of YouTube autoplay.

Okay but poptropica cartoon that's post-books and it follows the plots of the game but overall works at bridging the gap and also the trio meeting helper characters like Joe Puddy and CJ and Zack and

And also seeing the cast animated I would lose my mind

OOOUUOUOGH YES WE CAN BRIDGE THE LORE

I want a show so much. I'd love to see it. The animation, the fact we'd get to HEAR the characters, the increased opportunities for humor AND characterization...auauugh

To add on to it I'd love to see bloopers after the end of the episodes like the old Pixar movies used to do.

[crossover-enthusiast]

Edgar and CJ and Zack become recurring characters who help in their own ways and it parallels the kids

I JUST

POPTROPICA TRANSLATES SO WELL TO THE SCREEN PLEASE

Super Villain Island is a season finale with 5 parts, each one for each separate villain so we have time to learn more about them and have more interactions with them

Widow being pissed that we ruin her dream

Crawfish in the corner always staring at the kids

Hare giving advice through the tunnels

Meeting Mordred before they became Bard

Oooooo this all sounds so cool

[poptropicashitposts]

criminally underrated poptropican characters pt. 2 because like?? there are SO many

this is a cry for help

zack

yeah I play steamworks Island for the plot😳😳 but for real i mean this sole guy contains SO much lore and like?? he's in the island for the last three minutes. steamworks in general is just so so underrated man like... the implications? absolutely wild.

harold langley

look i am in NO position to deny that harold mews is an absolute lad but like... have you SEEN this fine blessing of a man. if there's a dilf hierarchy harold L is at the peak top of the pyramid. he'd go above and BEYOND it. man... he literally created a sentient AI that went from winning tic tac toe to enslaving the human race like... do I even need to say more

holmes

id argue he's the one (1) poptropica villian who owes us NO accountability for his actions like... dude he is straight up a computer. not even a robot. what's he gonna do? stand up and fight you? he's just straight up vibing. what an absolute legend AND he got reformed?? bro. don't even get me started on reformed villians

bucky lucas

the KING himself of continuity. no one talks about what an absolute chad he is like, mans just let himself go for three years before making a comeback in like mfjdj uhhhhhh Teen Movie^tm. can we even blame him

the astro knights Knights^tm

I could write a 292k essay about my love for arthurian legend but I will simply say this; they were the BACKBONE of astro knights.

Marnie

...

sluggers storekeeper

man you know they're underrated when they don't even have an official transparent pic. not only does he progress night watch island seriously well, he has a WHOLE bonus quest dedicated to his memorabilia... I guess that doesn't make him that underrated he just... he's just really out here dedicating his life to baseball and I respect that

[ask-nervous-heart]

You sure? That bowling ball looked painful-

Is sprocket there too? He’s adorable! Tell him I said hi!

[lookslikethatsallthetimewehave]

Well, that's a wrap for Poptober this year. Get it, wrap? Because candy?

They’re ready for adventure! Fusion of Zack (from Steamworks Island) and @psychosinmatic​‘s OC Sneaky Cheetah!

(And with that, that is the end of requests! They were so much fun to do and the commentary I received from them were amazing! Thank you all so much!)

Kids these days will never understand how great it was being a kid from the 90s or the early 2000s.

They'll never understand a good Disney, nickelodeon, or cartoon network show. They won't understand how nice it was to watch Jesse, Austin and Ally, Hannah Montana, Phineas and Ferb, the real blues clues, Kim possible, courage the cowardly dog, the power rangers, Arthur, or suite life of Zack and Cody every chance you got. They won't be able to watch dcoms every night at 8pm. They won't get the high school musical hype. Kids these days won't understand going to school and watching bill Nye the science guy or the magic school bus At the end of the day. Most of them won't understand playing outside and making weird shit in the dirt or getting ice cream from the ice cream truck. They won't understand the craze of Poptropica, Games on the Disney and Nickelodeon website, club penguin, or making a cake in purble place. They won't understand shitty but comfortable, innocent fashion. They won't have furbys or Zhu Zhu pets, or be obsession with beanie bears.

I feel really sorry for them.. a little
