OvenBreak Headline, December 2023: Holiday Training Academy Exam
Just as the Kingdom is getting ready for the holidays, OvenBreak is no different. Come join us as we follow two unlikely allies as they prepare to take an exam that could determine their futures in the holiday industry.
Preview Video
300 Rainbow Cube šŸŒˆ Coupon Code: HOLLY JOLLY SCHOOL (11/26, 10 AM EST - 11/27, 8 PM EST)
Part 1: 11/27 - 12/14 (Patch Notes)
Part 2: 12/14 - 12/28 (Coming Soon)
Title Event: Holiday Training Academy Exam
Welcome to Snowbell Academy: a holiday training academy where Cookies are trained on how to become professional holiday workers (mainly Cookiemas). In order to pursue the jobs they want, students have to pass the schoolā€™s exams. Unfortunately for šŸŽ„šŸ° Stollen Cookie, sheā€™s in a bit of a sticky situation since she flunked the midterms. If she fails again, she might even have to give up on her dreams. Returning to the exam room, she gets paired up with šŸ“šŸ° Strawberry Cream Cookie (Kingdom players should look twice before making assumptions, this isnā€™t āš™ļø Strawberry Crepe Cookie), to which the former had heard some negative rumors about Strawberry Cream Cookie and attempted to get re-paired with another Cookie via a request with the principal. Request denied. Therefore, those two are gonna take the exam together as plannedā€¦ whether they want to or not!
Bonus Events
Cookie of the Year Voting: 2023
This time around, the poolā€™s been narrowed to 50 Cookies who were either added to the game or received a costume from Januaryā€™s ā€œOperation: Time Fixersā€ to now. Whoā€™s gonna be 2023ā€™s Cookie of the Year???
Trophy Survival (Ends 12/5, 7 PM EST)
Grand Champions League (Coming Soon)
A Heart System has been developed as a failsafe against awkward situations where you would fail to rank because of competitive groupings and not having the listed Cookies up to par. Your rank will determine whether you gain or lose Hearts. Everyone starts with 5 once they register during Round 1, and you just need at least 1 Heart to advance to the next round.
A Grand Champions League Chest containing a MAX Boost Ticket and combi factors specific to each round has been added. Obtain method unknown as of now.
The Cheer system now allows you to cheer on other players to give them a chance for a Heart Revival, keeping them in the game. Unknown how others can cheer for you if you arenā€™t in the upper ranks.
Rounds now split into preliminaries, main rounds, semifinals, and the finals. With 3 rounds in each phase, thatā€™s 12 total rounds and maps. Ultimately, the finals will still be determined by skill, points, and how much you whaled. The player with the highest score across all 3 final rounds will be the Grand Champion and will get to choose the next Cookie to be featured in the Grand Champions League Statuette.
Go Champions (Coming Soon)
20 players will be matched in an arena, and youā€™ll get more rewards based on how much you win.

Champions League: Lemon Season (Coming Soon)

Piggybacking off this post to say that one of my absolute least favorite tropes both in canon and in "fanon" is taking a character that appears to (or does) fit into the above type described by OP and turning them into a confident fuckboy or having all their emotional barriers drop the minute their romantic interest indicates they might reciprocate feelings.
Nothing worse than seeing some self-deprecating never-says-his-genuine-feelings-out-loud bastard man suddenly become an extremely passionate smooth-talking lady-killer or a super genuine heartfelt empath or whatever. Let him half-jokingly flirt because he can't bring himself to do it genuinely! Let him allow the other person to be part of some mundane private ritual that nonetheless symbolizes a huge extending of trust on his part! Let him make a notable effort to stop self-deprecating so much because he knows it makes the other person feel bad! Let him be secretly overly sentimental and make excuses for why he keeps trinkets and memories from early in the relationship! Let him reflexively reach out for physical contact with them when asleep or relaxing or otherwise not paying attention as if he constantly seeks a tactile reminder of the other's presence!
Love is made of and found in a hundred thousand little things that mean just as much if not way more than the big dramatic declaration that the sopping wet bastard man wouldn't say unless at gunpoint!
once again opening a ship tag on AO3 and opening a dozen fics and closing out of almost all of them immediately because they would not fucking act like that

I found a fantasy book ball at home!!!!
Now I'm gathering costume pieces for Goldberry that are loosely based off the MTG card because all the other representations of her I've found have been a bit too arthurian or elvish. šŸ’š

My dad is whittling down to nothing. For those of you unaware (like most of us remember who is who on our mutuals. This anciente hellscape) (yes, the extra e is pronounced) dad has early onset alzheimers and vascular dementia.
He's had one big stroke and near as the imaging shows, is continuing to have minihemmorhages.
My dad was a man of science. He grew tall in his field - helped develop new techniques and a new field. Founded a convention that is ongoing.
He spoke Chinese because he fell in love with Chinese poetry as a teen hiding in the library in Texas.
Wooed my mother by quoting Tom Bombadil about Goldberry. (goddamn you, autocorrect, let me type).
He used to go on all fours and have us (sometimes two at a time!) as little kids ride up him on the stairs. Dad, my dad, would grab the railings and shake them making elephant noises. At the top of them, he'd use one arm as a trunk.
That was how he took us to bed. Taught me how to make scones and cookies. To get up when I scrape my knee. How to kick a soccer ball. Check another player with my shoulder.
We painstakingly kicked and screamed our ways thru every math class I ever had - and he still sat down to help. We both hated it, but we knew I needed the help.
Telling my first boyfriend that what I decided about my body went after he spent the night.
Came and held me and cried with me everytime a cat died or a family member.
We weren't- and still aren't- allowed to sit next to each other at dinner because we stir up trouble.
Perpetually pulled pranks. Woke us up one cranky morning on our drive to school - by shrieking "Aliens!" and lifting them off the wheel. We both came to mighty fast at that point.
There's so many more things I could talk about on and on and on like this.
He is not that anymore. Every day he becomes a little less - like a stone worn away by the stream it's in.
He loves me still. Even when he's struggling to track, he remembers my name and calls me his boy as well as his girl.
And I get to wonder how long until we lose that.
Until he doesn't know who we are.
I wish I had something wise to say, or kind to say. But mostly I am hurting very badly and weeping because God, I miss my dad.

Tumblr media
Admiring the beautiful sky the sunset brought through leaves on a tree you sat in you bit down into an apple the human got you. Then, disturbing your peace, someone tried to climb up to you, but instead of actually climbing the tree they just fell.Ā 
,,Ugh, stupid tree.ā€Ā  A familiar voice said and kicked into the tree. ,,Hey Hunter.ā€ You said from the tree. ,,Y/n! Hi.ā€ You bit down into the apple and held it with your teeth.Ā 
Then you jumped. Midair you caught a branch. You swung on it to another branch. When your feet touched another branch, you bounced off it and make flip backwards. Landing only few inches from his face, you smirked at his suprised expression.Ā 
He took a few steps backwards to create some space between you and him. You noticed he had a mask covering the bottom half of his face on. ,,Still wearing that mask yea?ā€ He broke your eye contact and looked to the ground. ,,Yea.ā€ You swung your arm around his shoulders and started leading him towards a small grass patch that was lit up by the fading sunlight.Ā 
You sat down and gestured for him to do the same. He sat next to you and started fidgeting with his gloved hands. From your back pocket you pulled out a little blue ball. ,,Take this instead, whenever you feel anxios, nervous or shit like that squeeze it.ā€ He acepted it and started playing with it. You layed down and looked up to the gap between treetop at the clouds passing by.Ā 
,,You know what? I get it, the covering your scars thing. I used to do it too. But thereā€™s nothing to be ashamed of.ā€ You turned to the sitting boy next to you. ,,The way I see it now is that each one of your scars tells a story of what you overcame, went through or accomplished in your life. You want me to tell you some of mine?ā€ He slowly turned to you and you sat up to face him. When you lifted your shirt up a bit you revealed a big scar going from your belly button to your back.Ā 
,,You have scars?ā€ He asked suprised. ,,Hell yea I do, I was a wild witch in the end.ā€ You smiled at him. ,,Oh yea, I forgot.ā€ He nervously scratched the back of his neck. ,,You see, this one is when one of my spells didnā€™t quite do what I wanted it to do so instead of slowly bringing myself up to a tree I shot myself up and I got this from a branch that as in my way.ā€ You got back to your storytelling and Hunter carefully listened to every word you say. ,,Or or, this one!ā€ You layed your leg in front of him and turned it a bit to shiw him a bite mark. ,,This one I got from a unicorn. It was chasing me for some goldberries in my backpack.ā€
Ā And you talked and talked, showing him a scars from different body parts. Small ones and big ones. Deep ones and just some light ones. And he admired how not fased you were by them and how unconserned you were whent talking about them. You showed him your open palms with many slashes in every direction that decorated them. ,,There bad boys I got when I managed to bury myself alive in some forgotten old mines.ā€Ā 
He couldnā€™t believe that you also had gone through things like that at a yound age. He thought he was the only one but there you sat, with a million stories to tell and a million sars to prove it. Then he took your hands to look closely at your palms but in the corner of his eye he noticed something different, something way too organised for it to be an accident.Ā 
Cuts in one row next to each other little above your wrist. ,,And this? Howā€™d you got this?ā€ He asked, reffering to the cuts. ,,Oh these are hand made.ā€ He looked at you confudes. ,,By who?ā€ You smacked your lips. ,,By me.ā€ He sighed and let go of your hands. ,,Why would you give scars to yourself?ā€ You shrugged. ,,I had some dark times.ā€ ,,Dark to the point of hurting yourself?ā€ You slowely nodded and layed back down, your arm in th earm and you looked at your palms. ,,Letā€™s just say that my family wasnā€™t very fond of little wild witch Y/n and they kicked me out and I took it out on th eonly person I could, and that was me.ā€Ā Ā 
Hunter closed his eyes, for a moment only listening to the sound of the forest. Then he hesitantly took of his mask. You sat up to face him so you could get a good view at his face. He had a scar from his cheek bone and across his cheek. He pointed to it and started talking, which revealed his, totally adorable, tooth gap.Ā 
,,This one I got from uncle for not beating a scout on a duel when I was the golden guard.ā€ He then turend his head to reveal his ear with a piece missing. ,,This I also got from Belos, when I talked back.ā€ And after one long look at his gloved hands, he got the courage to slide the gloves off. ,,And these,ā€ he offered his scarred hands to you ,,these were each one for doing something, even if a little bit, wrong.ā€Ā 
When he finished you didnā€™t know what to do and your intrusive thoughts took over and you kissed his hands. But you didnā€™t stop at one kiss, you kissed each and every scar that he had. And when you ran out of scars to kiss on his arms, you moved onto his ear and than on the scar on his cheek. Hunter, as red as he could possibly be just satred, eyes wide, somewhere in the distance.Ā 
You returned to your sitting spot and let go of his hands. The little flustered boy somehow managed to gather himself and look at you.Ā 
,,Hunter, your scares are beautifull.ā€ You got out of yourself after an awkward minute of staring at each other. ,,Do you mean that?ā€ You aggresively nodded. ,,Of course! I wouldnā€™t say it if it werenā€™t the truth.ā€Ā 
He didnā€™t fully believe you, but you hed never lied to him before. He just softly smiled and touched the scar on his cheek, now more sure of your answer. ,,Well than, I guess I donā€™t need this anymore!ā€ He stood up and took his mask of the floor and threw it as far as he could. He laughed and yelled in victory. When he calmed down a bit he turned to sitting you and embraced you in tight hug.
Ā ,,Thank you.ā€ He whispered in your ear, which for change made you light up with a slight shade of pink. He then started to giggle, and not in the normal way, more like in theĀ ā€˜Iā€™m planning somethingā€™ way. And then all you remembered were his soft lips pressed against yours and his tight hug dissapear.Ā 
He just left you there in a blushing mess while giggling even more and running away.

I saw your post about Tom Bombadil being Eru & I agree. What's your favorite theory for who he actually is?
Hi, I made the post and went to sleep literally five minutes later so Iā€™m only just seeing the ask now. To be honest, I donā€™t have one specific theory I see as the best one, but there are multiple I enjoy.
Other than the Eru one, the only common theory I donā€™t agree with is the one that he may be a Valar, because that doesnā€™t make much sense to me. The Valar willingly separated themselves from the matters of Middle Earth, and while itā€™s true Tom is also a neutral figure, I donā€™t see why one of the Valar should just be vibing in the Old Forest.
I like the idea that he might be a Maia more, although he would have to be a fairly weird Maia compared to the others we see. Not only because of his apparent immunity to the Ring, which weā€™re told would corrupt Gandalf, while Tom seemed to view it as nothing more than a funny little trinket. Thereā€™s also the fact that out of all the Maiar we see, Tom is the only one without a purpose. The Istari were sent by the Valar to keep Sauron in check, Sauron was being evil and trying to conquer the world, the Balrog was nothing but a relic in LotR but used to have a master once. In the Silmarillion too, all Maiar either serve a particular Vala, or they have their own duties and goals. Tom doesnā€™t. Heā€™s just there. Weā€™re never told a Maia must always have a duty, but Tom is the only one who has no apparent reason to be. Maybe thatā€™s what sets him apart - if the Valar came to take care of Eruā€™s creation, and Melkor came to destroy it, and all the Maiar aligned themselves with one or the others, then a Maia who is neutral would be something almost jarring in the ranks of the Ainur.
Thereā€™s also the fact Tom tells us he is the oldest, and that he was here before the Dark Lord came, and if by Dark Lord he meant Melkor, thatā€™s a very long time indeed. We canā€™t say for sure if he was being entirely honest and how his words should be interpreted, but what if by oldest, he meant the first? As in, the first Ainu who decided to come into Arda? If that were the case, maybe thatā€™s what made him strange. Maybe there was some leftover Music (and Tom is, at his core, a being of music) that gave him a something a little extra compared to the ones that came after.
Other theories - the one about him being a spirit or personification of the land also makes sense. It also falls well in line with his statement of being the oldest, in this case because the land itself would be the oldest thing around. It doesnā€™t necessary mean that Tom always existed as he is now, it could be that through the centuries and ages something in the land started to take form and think and slowly became the being we see. It also explains why he sticks to the Old Forest. If I were a timeless incarnation of the land, I think I would also want to be where ancient things are, and the Old Forest is old, very old, old as balls. Itā€™s true that this doesnā€™t have a lot of canon basis, as itā€™s not really supported by the text that this could happen, but like we also have those rock throwing stone giants in the Hobbit, and we also have no explanation for them other than ā€œthe rocks just came to lifeā€.
This could also explain the fact he isnā€™t affected by the Ring, because Sauron didnā€™t make it for him. He is a Maia, and the Ring therefore has power on creatures like him, and on less powerful beings like Elves or Men. A spirit of the land, however, would maybe be different enough from both Ainur and Children of Iluvatar that what works on them doesnā€™t work on him. Like trying to hold water with a willow basket. While at the same time not making Tom necessarily something more powerful or above Sauron - I think it was Elrond who said Sauron might eventually bend Tomā€™s power as well, and in this instance it would be very well possible for Sauron to do so. Not easily, but if he were to cut down the entire forest Iā€™d reckon that could already be a blow for Tom.
Iā€™ve also seen a couple times the idea Tom might actually be some kind of ancient evil waiting for his moment. While Iā€™m not sure I would go so far as saying Tom is an evil being rather than a neutral one, I find merit in this idea when it comes to trying to explain what manner of creature he is. Because, remember Ungoliant? Iā€™m not saying Tom is Ungoliant, no, but I am saying weā€™re never really told what Ungoliant is. Sheā€™s not counted as a Maia. Sheā€™s apparently just something evil that entered the world, but if sheā€™s not a Maia, and sheā€™s not a Vala, that creates the possibility of other things existing. Maybe Tom could also be something like that, something made in the Void that just happened to crawl in. Maybe thatā€™s why the Old Forest is like that, because in the middle of it thereā€™s a thing that just shouldnā€™t be. He could indeed be something evil, by this theory, but he could also be something that isnā€™t quite made for the world, or maybe the world isnā€™t made for him. Maybe he could just stick to the Old Forest because he knows if he were to move heā€™d cause trouble somewhere else. And heā€™s not affected by the Ring because, well, heā€™s just too alien to everything else.
And in all of this I havenā€™t even touched Goldberry, who receives less curiosity than Tom but is also about as weird at him. After all, the Hobbits look at Tom and just see a strange man at first, but when they look at Goldberry they immediately feel that she is something else. And according to Merry, the source of all the weirdness of the Forest is the stream that runs through it, and it was at that stream that Tom found Goldberry River-daughter. Whatever Tom is, Goldberry canā€™t exactly be something normal either.

They let themselves be vulnerable people, and Beleg is a dork who couldnā€™t make the hard choices, like dragging Turinā€™s ass home--- In terms of rp Iā€™m okay if he gets hurt, but Iā€™ll love him in ridiculous amounts forever.
šŸ³ - Whatā€™s currently highest on your plot wishlist?Ohhh hmm, I donā€™t plot too much coughcoughifthereisanAndrogoutthere- but I think I would like to play out some of Belegā€™s canon scenes maybe someday.
