Three years later and I still cant draw hands

[goldentreasuredump]

I got both Sage of Truth and Truthkess Recluse… This is either a thanks for the stupid comics or a sign to draw the costumes…

[goldentreasuredump]

I haven't drawn a fully illustrated thing in a while, and I wont do it again for a while!

God I love them so much

[goldentreasuredump]

I MUST know more about the other fankids! (Whichever group you prefer to share is perfectly fine)

Yesss! I needed a reason to talk about there guys more!! Sadly their lore and story is a massive work in progress and super jumbled but I’ll talk about what Lore I do have!

Time for a bunch of walls of text! LETSGO!

First I wanna talk about how their age works cause it’s a little confusing. Technically speaking, the kids are only a few month old. But 8/10 of them were baked into young adult bodies. Half Moon is the oldest in all senses, in terms of being made first, physically she is probably around 20-23, and she is the most emotionally mature out of everyone. Eldest daughter syndrome at its finest.

Order of creation: Half Moon, Vanilla Extract, Pepper-Jack, Sriracha Cheddar, Weeping Willow, Celtis Laevigate, Cacao Powder, Snow Berry, Chocolate Mochi, Blueberry Orchid

Order of physical age: (Early 20s) Half Moon, Snow Berry, Pepper Jack, (17-19) Vanilla Extract, Sriracha Cheddar, Weeping Willow, (15-16) Celtis Laevigate, Cacao Powder, (12-14) Chocolate Mochi, (7-10) Blueberry Orchid

These kids weren’t given childhoods (because they were baked into adult bodies and also cause I don’t imagine labs are good environments for healthy childhood development) So they are all pretty emotionally immature, Except for Half Moon and Snow Berry.

The Shadownilla kids are the “Main characters” of the au so the story mostly focuses on them! Half Moon and Extract are the oldest out of the ten, but despite being the oldest (and arguably most powerful), the others don’t respect them as much. This is partially due to most of the kids having minor superiority/god complex’s, but also because Half Moon and Extract aren’t really “full” cookies like the rest of them.

Half Moon, being the first experiment was made with a SHIT TON of magic to the point where she is literally 50% magic, 50% cookie. Half of her body is literally magic, no dough. The Half part of her name is very literal…

Extract on the other hand was made with too much chemicals as there wasn’t enough dough to make a cookie. Instead of having jam or whatever cookies have as organs, it’s all just weird vanilla extract-like goo (Like his hair).

So While Half Moon is “Half a cookie”, Extract is basically a “Shell of a cookie”. This isn’t something is talked about a lot because the kids know how much it effects Moon and Extract but I like to keep that in my back pocket for future angst purposes…

Out of everyone, Powder Cacao challenges Moon’s authority the most. Despite being one of the youngest, he has the BIGGEST superiority complex out of them all. Powder craves praise and attention and while he is extremely strong (Both physically and magically) he is so childish and ends up making a fool of himself.

To be honest, the ten don’t really get along with each other. Yeah they stick together but that’s out of necessity and obligation. Yes the sibling groups get along but as a whole, they aren’t really friends.

The kids stay with Pure Vanilla for a LONG time, probably close to a full year before the other ancients find out about them.

I said this already in the previous fan kid post about the kids not wanting to live with their respective ancients in the beginning. I originally said it was because they were half beast and the ancients probably wouldn’t want them. BUT it’s also because the kids know they are kind of an inconvenience.

Dark Cacao and Holly Berry already have families AND kingdoms to run. And let’s be honest, Dark Cacao isn’t the best dad out there. White Lily is a brand new ruler and also has the responsibility as guardian, not to mention she is still dealing with Dark Enchantress. And Golden Cheese was actually mutilated by Burning Spice, PJ and Sriracha resemble BS just a little too much both in appearances and personalities. The kids are painfully aware of what they are and how much pain their presence would cause the other Ancients. And besides, Pure Vanilla is literally the nicest, most accepting person in all of Earth-bread, so they will stay with him for as long as possible.

I am really putting Pure Vanilla through a lot of bs with these kids…

I just love these silly menaces so so much and I hope this lore drop was what you were hoping for!

Ngl this is adorable and btw I adore your artstyle!

Also idk if you take ideas or not but I'm gonna throw you at this anyway because I feel like if I don't say it, I'm gonna explode lol!

Pure vanilla teaching shadow milk to walk as a cute bonding thing lmao!

I absolutely take ideas/requests!! It keeps the motivation going!

ANYWAYS! I dont know if this is as cute as you wanted but I got a good laugh while drawing this

I am now gonna headcannon Smilk to have a lot of mobility issues after getting a physical body. He is way too reliant on magic to NOT have problems moving around naturally. PV is also the only person who can motive Smilk with praise...

[goldentreasuredump]

Another stupidly silly fluff comic I can cross off my list!

This might be my favorite shadownilla art Ive ever done. The expressions are just so auuuugh I cant!

[goldentreasuredump]

Im working on another stupid fluff comic and I am having way too much fun drawing Smilk. Look at this stupid little guy and his stupid little guy faces!

[goldentreasuredump]

That moment when your drawing the most beautiful, feminine, pretty boy... and then you remember that he is a goddamn cookie

[goldentreasuredump]

I love my Beast/Ancient fan kids wayy too much and I'm making it everyone else's problem. So take this lore and art dump!

In this Au (that doesn't have a name yet) There are ten fankids in total, but the "main characters" are the Shadownilla kids. Because of course they are

The general backstory for these guys is that they were made in a lab using the stolen DNA of both beasts and ancients (don't ask how the scientists got said stolen DNA, I don't have an answer). They were created to be "the ultimate cookies" but it backfired horribly for the scientists as all ten kids are more ancient than beast and are far more pure and genuinely good than what was planned. Then the kids planed a jail break, escaped the lab, stole an air ship, and set off for the Vanilla Kingdom.

Now, why the Vanilla Kingdom specifically? Simple! The Vanilla Kingdom is a place where all cookies can live together, no matter their flavor or texture. So of course this would be the safest place for half-beast cookies to seek temporary asylum. Pure Vanilla is also the safest out of all of the Ancients for the kids to go to as this au takes place between chapters 6 and 7, so Dark Cacao and Golden Cheese have already experienced the horror of their beasts and they don't need children who are half beast. So Pure Vanilla becomes a single father of ten for a good chunk of time.

Once they all settle in and calm down, Pure Vanilla does call for the other Ancients to come get their kids but they happens later. I dont have a lot of stuff for the other kids as I personally don't like Mystic Flour or Burning Spice all that much, and the other two beast aren't out yet...

The Beasts have absolutely no clue that these kids exist and are absent for most of story until the kids go off to live with their respective Ancient parent.

The reason why Shadow Milk specifically doesn't know the kids exist is because of Half Moon. She was the first kid to be baked and was made with dark moon magic, she does have access to the dark side of the moon but her powers act as more of a Shadow Milk repellent. Kinda like forcing the same side of two magnets together. So once Half Moon was made, Smilk lost access to the lab, which confuses the heck outta him. And once she's in PV's care, Smilk loses access to Pv as well. Smilk is confused, angry, and I love bullying him.

I should also add that in the beginning, the trio absolutely adores Pure Vanilla and do NOT like Shadow Milk. Like at all. They hate him.

Half Moon can tolerate Smilk. She does want a relationship with Smilk because he is their other parent, but she's heard to horror stories and makes sure to keep a safe distance between him and her siblings cause she has the power to do so. Half Moon is out here protecting her family from the deranged gay jester 🫡

Half Moon and Smilk probably have the best relationship out of all of the kids but thats saying something. The bar is on the floor.

Vanilla Extract DESPISES Smilk and rejects the very idea of being related to him. Extract was literally baked in PV's image and was supposed to be a healer as well, but the little bit of Smilk in him ruined everyone. Extract is the only member of the family who can use or learn healing magic and he blames Smilk for it. Extract is just so full of teenage angst, it's great.

Blueberry Orchid is the baby of the family and is probably the most successful creation out of the ten. She is the living embodiment of pureness and truth baked into a baby sheep girl. Orchid is incapable of lying and is basically a human (cookie?) lie detector. Smilk annoys her because she knows he's lying to her, so she ignores him every chance she gets in that sassy child way! It amuses everyone else but Smilk's poor ego cant handle the amount of sass this child is giving him.

Shadow Milk has to win over each kid and PV but they will eventually be a happy family! But it will take a while. Im an absolute sucker for domestic fluff and the idea of these two raises children (One young adult, a teenager and a child) is so so so amusing. I need that found family, I need the angst and hurt comfort, I need Shadow Milk to step up and be a better guardian cause he's doing a shit job with Candy Apple and Black Sapphire! Shadow Milk dad redemption here and now!!

I saw your cookie run art and gotta say I love your artstyle! Especially the comic about that funny pun!

Aww thank you!! The pun comic is also my favorite comic so far BUT!! I have a whole word doc with wayyyy too many comic ideas/wips that I hope the people will like!

I plan to feed to Shadownilla nation with stupid fluff comics for a while ✨

[goldentreasuredump]

Ive been keeping these guys to myself (and the cool people in the crk official discord) for too long! I must share the fan kid au with tumblr!

These guys were baked in a lab. With NO love! The only person who knows they exist is Pure Vanilla and he is not having a good time raising 10 baby gods...

I have rambled about these guys so much in the discord but Im just really happy with all of their designs... Look at them! Look at them!!

[goldentreasuredump]

ok i found my new favorite artstyle HIIIII UR ART IS SO GOOD!!!!!

OMG THANK YOU?? I don’t really know how to respond to compliments BUT I WILL BE RIDING THIS EGO BOOST FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK! 😭🫶

[goldentreasuredump]

Shadownilla drawing except I ate the context and yall can get that when I finish the comic

The end of Smilk's hair looks like a goofy snake and I love that

[goldentreasuredump]

What do you see in that guy PV? "He makes me laugh."

I did not need to spend 11+ hours on a pun comic but I did!

[goldentreasuredump]

Silly sneak peak of another comic Im almost done with
