Weird thought but like. How its the Thing to poke fun @ espresso for his WEIRD thing abt not sleeping enough for other cookies standards or how its SO SAD how he overworks himself. Does he neglect sleeping a lot, sure yeah the game does make it obv he is constantly tired. Does he have a slightly self destructive work ethic, yeah probably. But ppl really neglect to mention that despite the harm 2 himself he could be causing 2 himself from our perspective and other kingdom cookies perspectives it was the coffee tribes Thing to do this bc it was well within their abilities to stay up days at a time and willingly did so to do their jobs in the dark cacao kingdom, that was their point of pride. And it really reflects the weird sentiment ive mentioned before that ppl have abt dark cacao kingdom where they see the cookies live in desolate conditions and so depend on each other a lot and are strict on themselves to make sure everyone is provided for, and see this as depressing to watch bc they add this narrative on where the cookies who live this way are really unhappy and arent willingly committing to the cacao lifestyle bc its not something they believe in. And you know what u could try not thinking that way

#like in essypoos case its a lil different cus he had to work to afford a home BUT #this is his willing routine and a lot of things around this r fanon inspired by.#the infamous gingerbrave and madeleine cocooning him to sleep etc #there arent actually that many indications hes seriously harming himself mentally for preferring to work the way he does #and in the same exact vein ppl project their own ideologies onto cacao kingdom #and suggest dark cacao is cruel for Starving his ppl or being overly strict on them #when there isnt like any indication whatsoever that the cacaoians are unhappy or dont believe in his authority. its the opposite actually #yes yes unreliable narrators dramatic irony etc but also sometimes ppl just have vastly different approaches to life than u do #like the dark cacaoians and thats okay
