Since the majority of the Phantom Troupe "don't exist" in the eyes of society and as such don't have any records to speak of, once Kortopi died, he ceased to exist altogether outside of the spider's memory. The sole proof that he was ever alive at all can only be found in Shalnark's phone, as a series of mundane pics he took of each of the troupe's members.

Some have caught on to it and tried to either pose for the picture or stop him from taking it, while some were too immersed in whatever they were doing to notice one has been taken. Regardless of how poorly or "ugly" a few of them have turned out though (since they are of the troupe being themselves at random points of the day rather than their crafted personas), they can all be found in Shalnark's phone to this day. None of them have ever been deleted.

#muse: shalnark kurta.#* shalnark kurta. / development.#I visited all of my grandparents today and asked them to show me their photo albums and that endeavor somehow led to this hc...#Shal isn't a very sentimental person nor are the majority of the troupe #They've learned to 'get over' their friends' deaths fast but sometimes I Do think one or two of them want to look back on the memories #They can't really have photo albums or leave any traces of their existence for others to find so Shal took it upon himself #to have/archive everything on his phone (and exactly 1 usb stick that's hidden in one of his storage rooms)#There are photos of Uvo and Paku in there... Kortopi too... and also the other deceased/former members #He doesn't open the folder 99% of the time but I do think some of the others have asked to see it #for example Nobunaga after Uvo's death; or even Machi after Paku's death #Hisoka didn't destroy Shalnark's phone so in the canon verse where he dies too and /remains/ dead...#I like to think the troupe finds his phone still intact and Chrollo keeps it as a memento
