*Once again, in the flower’s domain, a sweet hum came from the wisteria tree. A cookie, or seemingly one, slid off of a sweet cobweb, using the sugar silk to slide down.*

Hm~ Oh dear, they’re all gone~…

*They hummed to the flower, as they raised one of their six hands to their mouth.*

Do you really think they will do it, darling? Even that mistake is gone… hmph…

How would OP! PV react to finding a shaking cookie after said cookie survived probably the worst thing ever happened to them ?

(Allow me to introduce you to mintleaf cookie)

Despite Shadow Milk's presence (And the additional workload he puts on peepaw), Pure Vanilla still worries for the safety of all cookies in his kingdom, residents or not.

Little Mint leaf would be no different, depending on what they need gramps would be more than glad to offer them food and shelter!

..of course, while warning them of the danger beasts put on cookiekind these days.

I’ve been reading your posts about Beast-Yeast 8 and, uh.

Isn’t it interesting that the Light of Truth only speaks up exactly ONCE during this entire episode and when it does, it’s talking to Shadow Milk Cookie?

anon you have just brought this to my attention and the answer is YES 100%!!!

here's the entire exchange screenshotted, and analysed for reference!

the exchange happens DIRECTLY after the whole thing where shadow milk and pure vanilla become "one and the same" — each with their own other-realms to control.

now, the light of truth comes in with a completely black background. usually when we see it, it's pure vanilla in the abyss of his soul, surrounded by blue glowing eyes and twisting and turning in the darkness. shadow milk's other-realm, really.

and its line: "is it truly YOUR will?" can imply very many things.

we all know the light of truth is shadow milk cookie. that's why when we saw this exchange, we stopped, paused — immediately knew this wasn't the REAL light. we've got an imposter on our hands, and it seems to know something about Shadow Milk's past that we don't.

after the exchange, he is SHOCKED. but not just shocked — is that ... uncertainty? shadow milk, "fount of knowledge," master of all his plans, always one step ahead, not knowing something.

or maybe he does know something. maybe he knows who this imposter light of truth is. he SEEMS to recognise them, thus is his reaction. if shadow milk was faced with a light of truth suddenly talking to him, one that is not him, and he didn't know who it was, don't you think his reaction would be something different? more confused? more in denial? he would suspect something like it being pure vanilla reaching out to him, trying to scare him — and I'm not saying this isn't pure vanilla, but don't you think he would have reacted more ... "oh, I know what you're doing, stop trying to get to me, you're not fooling anybody" and not like THIS??

he MUST know who exactly this is. yes, maybe this is pure vanilla. propaganda for this theory being that he now has control over his OWN other-realm, and thus would be able to make a connection like this. maybe this is shadow milk cookie himself, or at least the hidden part of him (which would explain the "is this YOUR will" part. maybe this is the part of him that wanted to find out everything there was to know, to quote the crk 4th website. but then something happened, and deceit took over, and that part of him was hidden away.)

it could be ANYONE. for all we know, this could be one of the witches. this could be elder faerie. this could be someone that knows something about shadow milk, or someone who was involved in his past. we don't know.

but one thing I'd like to point out: BEFORE this exchange, the two realms were split: one side clearly vanilla's and the other being shadow milk's. but when he wakes up ... it's all pure vanilla. AND:

maybe it's just me, but he seems GENUINELY shocked here. genuinely afraid. mad? confused. DESPERATE.

and, he cannot control his other-realm anymore. it's vanished. more propaganda for pure vanilla somehow being involved in that light of truth showing up. he threw shadow milk into an abyss, saw his opportunity, and took it.

and THAT is truly one of the best points in this entire episode of beast-yeast.

Do you guys think Shadow milk lives in a perpetual state of constant loneliness? That he made Black Sapphire and Candy Apple to accept people into his life but he realized that he made them the way he wanted people to see him so he slowly grew bored. He hates that he put this on them and everything. Maybe that’s why he felt resentment for Pure Vanilla when he asks to be friends.

He does like / love Pure Vanilla in the sense that “Yeah, you’re my friend” but deep down he’s upset that he was forgiven so easily. That he feels like some sort of revenge should be taken against him but he doesn’t acknowledge it?

Dunno though! Just me :3

I think the reason why the name Truthless Recluse is so striking, is because there is no flavor there. It is simply Truthless Recluse. Not Vanilla Recluse. Not anything like that. Just words without flavor. Because he has lost something meaningful to him. Because he has fundamentally changed.
