Happy Halloween! For the 31st day of our Autumnal Calendar, venture back into the depths of the library to discover who your host really is, how you ended up here, and what terrifying fate befell the 16 daily entries prior to this one! thecrewofthecoppercoloredcupids.wordpress.com/an-autumnal-...

October 12th - "Trick or Thymon!", a wonderful piece of guest art by Ophelien Twain! thecrewofthecoppercoloredcupids.wordpress.com/trick-or-thy...
A drawing of Lord Thymon - an entity made out of blue tendrils with a single eye - wearing a bedsheet ghost costume with a single eye hole. His signature hat is perched on top, and a pumpkin basket is levitating beside him. His dialogue reads "Candy please. Inside the pumpkin receptacle" in "glitched" text.

New character portraits for the Magician and Pestilence the Horseman!
A colored illustration of the Magician, a mildly-concerned-looking man with blond hair and a blond beard. He is wearing a tailored suit, bow tie, and boutonnière, and is holding a walking stick. A colored illustration of Pestilence, an elderly-looking, bald creature with lichen-colored skin and pointed ears. He is wearing a tattered, stained robe and cape with a skull-shaped clasp. One of his clawed hands is raised and seems to glow with power.

Title: Romantic and the Gang - Classic Stories in Verse

Date withdrawn: July 30, 2025

Borrower's name: Aletheia-548 [head archivist]
The Rainbow Kids are on a ship They hope a nice relaxing trip Is what they’ll find upon the sea On ocean waves they’ll frolic free! Romantic finds it hard to rest This seabound life proves quite a test It’s not the sort of life he knows The small boat rocks! The cold wind blows! “I’d rather be on land,” says he “The solid ground is right for me! I’d gambol in the flowers there And dance about like Fred Astaire!” “Romantic!” cry the Rainbow Tots “Don’t tie yourself all up in knots! There’s fun out here upon the sea We’re sure you’ll find that you agree!” Romantic sees the golden sun And schools of fish all having fun. “Why, Rainbow Kids, sure as you’re born! I’ve found the rose among the thorns!”

Title: The Rainbow Adventures: The Scripts - Complete First Season

Date withdrawn: July 30, 2025

Borrower's name: Aletheia-548 [head archivist]
INT. MYSTERIOUS CITY - BRAIN CHAMBER ROMANTIC and the RAINBOW KIDS overlook the ENORMOUS BRAIN from the OBSERVATIONAL BALCONY. The DREAM CIRCUITS buzz and whir. JILLIAN: I’ll bet one good whack would damage those Dream Circuits! Then the Central Brain could wake up from its endless dream! ROMANTIC-957: I admire your determination, Jillian, but we’ve got to be careful. Until we know more about this brain, it won’t do at all to act hastily! Romantic assumes a WISE EXPRESSION. ROMANTIC-957: We mustn’t assume we always know what’s best when making a bold decision! If we try to talk to the brain first, we might find that it prefers to remain in its dream state! SUZANNE: But who would prefer to be lost in a dream, Mr Romantic? When we encountered the Dream Master and he imprisoned me in my worst nightmares, I was terrified! ROMANTIC-957: It may seem unpleasant to us, but the choice is only the Central Brain’s to make! That is why we must use the Magic Rainbow to enter its dreams before we can make our decision! ROMANTIC snaps his fingers, and the MAGIC RAINBOW appears with its signature SPARKLING NOISE. LITTLE BILLY: Jeepers! I sure do love using the Magic Rainbow! ROMANTIC and the RAINBOW KIDS leap into the SWIRLING COLORS of the MAGIC RAINBOW.

New art for "The Toymaker's Labyrinth", depicting two of Madame Tarsa's creations: the Mechanical Fortune Teller and the Mechanical Skeleton! (thecrewofthecoppercoloredcupids.wordpress.com/2019/09/18/t...)
A mechanical fortune teller encased in a glass carnival booth, consulting a crystal ball. Wearing a jester's cap and toy soldier uniform, it resembles the character Madame Tarsa. The sign on the top of the booth reads 'Madame Tarsa's Astonishingly Accurate Mechanical Fortune Teller', while a sign near the bottom reads 'Insert any valid currency here' with an arrow pointing to a coin slot. A mechanical skeleton with a large wind-up key. It is frowning, and a speech bubble containing a question mark is floating above its head.
