Knight: hey man! look! just don't try anything and you'll be fine! *he says to smoked cheese with- a genuine smile on his face! and that well meaning goofy tone that only someone, genuinely giving ya a chance could! someone offering so much, yet still willing to give more, solely for a new friend or friends? talk about greed- *

Smoked Cheese doesn't know how to feel about this.

Nightshade has finally gotten Royal to calm down.

[cortlandkaard]

helped my friend @cakemx make a cookiesona

i now present to you, ROYAL ICING COOKIE!!

...plus a little comic i made

..aaand finally an idea of their own

safe to say i think this is a good addition to the cookie run kingdom cast

and that this post lags my phone super hard for no reason

[yanderecookierunkingdom]

Seal anon here and I got a silly idea....got so many cookies I Simp for and can't help but wonder what a whole bunch of em would be like for this type of y/n buuut I'll try to limit myself and give it to you in seprate batches...don't want to drown you in too many at once lol!

Affogato, clotted cream, red velvet, dark choco, royal margarine...

With...drum roll please...

A clumsy y/n! Like someone who randomly trips and then gets up like nothing happens and stuff like that lol!

He finds you being clumsy quite adorable! It just serves to show him that you won't really be capable of betraying him.

He does lightly tease you, but never anything too serious. He may be a villain, but he doesn't want to make you upset.

Sometimes catches you if you ever trip. He just chuckles when you get embarrassed.

He probably catches you a lot, or those little appendages catch you as well.

He's probably contemplated putting you in that light cage once or twice so that you won't get hurt anymore.

Sometimes flirts with you whenever you trip and he catches you. Mostly small, corny things.

More than likely, he has his cake hounds trial you so that they can help you not be too clumsy if he's not around. Of course, this results in you sometimes tripping over them..

He hovers over you a lot, considering where he resides. One wrong trip could have you tumbling over the edge.

You give him.. so many heart attacks. You're lucky he loves you.

He's probably a bit clumsy like you, regarding his poor eyesight, but not as clumsy. But he does have some solidarity.

He probably holds your hand a lot. To make sure you don't lose your balance.

He never teases you but will make jokes about how two clumsy Cookies fell into each other's arms.

Red Death (Créme Brulee & Red Velvet Prince AU)

[ Part of a Cookie Run Kingdom Prince AU with Créme Brulee and Red Velvet by @cupcakestreets (part one & part two), go read those first to get an idea of the surrounding plot. Wanted to write a little thingy about the outside view in. Btw Cake if you see this not sorry I'm forcefully making your cast bigger by inserting these two LMAO ]

"Truly, your inability to read the room continues to astound me, Madeleine."

The knight in question gaped openly at the sardonic accusation, comically shaking his head like a hound before puffing his chest up indignantly, both of which Espresso found profoundly unimpressive and rolled his eyes at. He returned to his attention to much more deserving matters—namely, picking ingredients for his alchemic mixes from the Créme Kingdom's surprisingly sundry garden. While the selection was meager compared to other kingdom's gardens, he found the gardener Herb exceptional at maintaining the plants, yielding the best results in his concoctions.

A little fieldwork never halted his pursuits as a royal alchemist, though venturing out here did mean he ran the risk of being accosted by a particular nuisance with the name of Sir Madeleine, a devote paladin from another neighboring kingdom who nonetheless defied every expectation of knightly stoicism by being obnoxiously loud and optimistic...two traits he was showing off excessively at the moment.

Espresso reiterated wryly, seeing no way to escape this unfortunate interaction, "I suppose I should know better than to expect you to understand this, but it was an arranged marriage. They are not in love, and I believe it would be in your best interest to avoid saying that aloud. Others may not be as forgiving as I was to correct you."

"If that was your show of mercy, I fear the one deserving of your wrath," Madeleine said, face pulled into a pout. He was never one to remain dower, but he continued, "Well, I'll admit to my error in believing it was purely a romantic pursuit. Although, I did spy the foreign prince and His Highness in this very garden earlier, and they seemed to be getting along nicely! Indeed Espresso, is it so impossible to believe they might find content with each other?"

"Yes, it is," retorted Espresso, peeling off a glove to massage between his brows before scowling up at the paladin from his crouched position, "You cannot possibly tell me you are unaware of the unsavory reputation Prince Red Velvet and his kingdom possess."

"No, I am aware," he replied, becoming uncharacteristically serious as his smiling face pulled into a slight frown. He glanced around, perhaps to check if they were truly alone, before looking back down at the alchemist to add, "It would be dishonorable of me to speak....poorly of His Highness Prince Créme Brulee's fiancé upon his land, however..."

"'However' nothing, Madeleine." Espresso stood, not quite satisfied with the amount of material he'd collected but unwilling to continue this conversation with the other; and too perhaps being a tad concerned there were unwanted eavesdroppers. He moved to stand at the knight's shoulder, and under the pretense of wrapping his ingredients in cloth, asked in a subdued tone, "What do you know about the prince?"

"Not as much as I would like considering he is betrothed to the heir of the Créme Kingdom," answered Madeleine, who thankfully picked up the tone of the conversation by now and had also quieted himself. "As you know, I travel far afield as a paladin, and everything I have heard about the kingdom he hails from is...not good, to say the least. I will not go as far as to say it shakes my faith in this kingdom, but to have His Highness marrying Prince Red Velvet-..."

"It does not seem like anything yet," Espresso indirectly corrected, "It's too early to see the signs, but I know this pattern. That kingdom, his kind...they are like a disease that spreads without symptoms. Hopping from place to place like an illness infiltrates a community, eventually, everything and everyone here will be ripped up by their roots, revealing their sinister nature and the infection within."

"By then, it'll be far too late for a cure, and it starts with this marriage to Prince Créme Brulee. I cannot imagine, even at the shallow attempts to make it seem they are 'getting along' as you say, that it is not reflective of the impending disaster."

"..." Madeleine's frown deepened, brow furrowing as he thought. Inwardly, Espresso wondered where this silent, pensive attitude was earlier when he was trying to harvest in peace.

Coming out of he reverie, he stated firmly, "You are welcome to criticize me for this, however I would believe his Highness can inspire a change in Prince Red Velvet. I have spoken with him on occasion, and I can say with confidence that he is not as passive and fragile as he seems. Rather, he has a remarkable ability to sway the souls of others, through his words and his music."

"In fact, I will criticize you for that one," grumbled Espresso, instantly growing exhausted with the other's persistent attempts of salvaging this dire situation, "Don't you understand? The Velvet Kingdom has proved time and time again they will never change. They only know violence, and they will wring out this kingdom just as they've done so many others."

"Ah, but I meant the prince," Madeleine countered, this time the one to indirectly correct what Espresso was implying. "Kingdoms and succession may be built upon smoke and mirrors, royal illusions of possessing virtues that fail to deliver when asked to make a show of it, but individuals are different. They are always capable of change, and can deem to surprise you in the most devastating ways."

"Hmph," was all the response he received. Madeleine laughed, shaking his head again, but unlike his usual booming laughter, it rang hollow and distorted like an altered church bell. It was enough to warrant Espresso's specific attention, and he faced the other fully to examine his expression.

He found a careful facsimile of confidence, a painted mural depicting the might of ancient dragons that could be washed away with mere rain. Madeleine, in all his pride, wore a lopsided smile strained at the edges, a tremulous bridge over an abyss of despair as he stared into the peaceful calm of the garden. His faith allowed him to believe in what was undefinable, and he extended it even now to the unprovable: that Red Velvet could change.

But the implication of failure, the weight of the future should he be proven wrong, settled heavily on his shoulders. Espresso felt it too, strangely resigned and sympathetic in that moment to know even the most well-believing man he could think would know to doubt.

"...Come, let me walk you to the gate," he stated unexpectedly, shaking Espresso a bit. He nodded wordlessly, still unmoored, feeling like he was bracing for an inevitable storm.

Just as they were to step out of the garden, Madeleine added, with a grim sense of finality: "You know, it was...fascinating that you described them as a disease. Of all the fearful titles given to their prince...I found the most appropriate one to be 'Red Death'."

Left alone behind a dividing wall of green, a sole witness as a silent songbird in a crystalline cage, the Prince Créme Brulee finally sings. And he weeps.

[sugarcreambiteskingdom]

Ok here is the idea and I'll give you a list of characters to choose from

Idea: [cookie] finds y/n trying to stay awake to meet Santa...they love y/n very much but they don't want them to feel bad on Christmas morning so they proceed to somehow trick/subtly lull y/n to sleep...

Cookie options:

Royal margarine

Dark choco

Red velvet

Affogato

Clotted cream

Shining glitter

Kouign amann (added them on because they are another crush of mine and already saw em on your poll so ye!)

Butter roll

Didn't hold myself back much so you'd have lots and lots of options incase we happen to simp for some cookies in common or you happen to see a cookie on the list and go 'oh, I've been looking for an excuse to write emporium something lol! But if list is TOO long, sorry then lol!

Also just came up with another holiday idea if you want...it came to me mid typing the first one lol...same potential characters...them building a gingerbread house together and things get playful lmao...like 'accidently' getting frosting on y/n's cheek as an excuse to kiss their cheek silly lmao!

Cream Oreo Cookie: YES

Christmas Special Part 2/3

Red Velvet:

One of the Cakehounds woke him up while he was trying to sleep after working his Dough off in the morning training the new recruited hounds all day long

It was Chiffon who was pulling on his PJ's

He groaned as he sat up and stretched

He looked to his side and realized you weren't there

So he then got out of bed and saw you by the tree waiting for santa

He chuckled knowing you want to meet Santa Cookie and won't sleep until you do

So he decided to use one of his cake arm to grab you and take you to bed whether you like it or not as you protest

But as soon as you hit your head on the Bed and cuddled with him

You immediately fell asleep

Chiffon then decided to sleep on he bottom of the bed

Affogato:

He woke up from his peaceful nap and saw that you weren't there next to him

He groaned and got out of bed to come look for you

As soon as he saw you by the tree he went and sat next to you and asked you why you we're still awake

You explained to him you want to see Santa Cookie

He can't help but laugh and you we're confused and asked

He was about to say Santa Cookie isn't real

But...he doesn't want to hurt your feelings so he decided to play along

He convinced you to sleep with him because Santa Cookie doesn't go to the said Cookie's House if there awake and Santa Cookie will definitely know especially since Santa Cookie already know who went on the Naughty List or not

You we're immediately convinced because he was right

If Santa Cookie knows if you've been naughty or not...why can't he also see if your awake or not too?

Well...there goes your plan on seeing Santa Claus Cookie

But that's okay...atleast you have a very handsome Cookie named Affogato sleeping and cuddling you in bed during the cold weather

Clotted Cream:

He just finished his papers by midnight singing and reading them all but once he got to your shared room you weren't there

He then looked around and saw you by the Christmas Tree

He chuckled already knowing you want to catch Santa Cookie by this time

And he doesn't blame you since he also did this when he was young

The only difference is he stopped at the age of 12

He sat next to you and decided to wait for Santa Cookie alongside them

You we're so happy when you heard the news

So you two decided to wait for him

But by the time he saw your eyes start dropping and you went ahead and start yawning

He then started singing which slowly made you fall asleep further

Once you we're asleep he took you to there shared bedroom

His planned work

Libraries and Chocolate Cake

i can't believe i've managed to post two stories in one day--i feel like im back in 2021 with the first rowaelin month where i managed to write a fic for pretty much every day lol

Day 16-Opening of the Royal Library/Theater. @rowaelinscourt

i miss writing fluff and i hope you enjoy it too!! xx

cw: none words: 900+

Aelin was woken up by Rowan shaking her shoulder. Frowning, Aelin looked at the time on her little clock on her nightstand. Dawn was still a little while away. Almost always, Rowan woke up first, and sometimes he would wake her up by nuzzling her neck with kisses, or with gentle touches.

Usually, he left her to wake up naturally, as Aelin often needed the rest more than Rowan did (according to him, despite the fact that he was still rebuilding Orynth and beyond, was always training with the guards and their ever-growing army and navy forces).

“What's wrong?” Aelin asked, her voice groggy. She rubbed heavily at her eyes. She didn't hear anything amiss, just Fleetfoot's light snores at the end of the bed and some birds chirping through the open balcony doors.

“Nothing,” her husband answered. “But you need to get out of bed, I want to show you something.”

Aelin's frown deepened. “Can't it wait until the sun has fully risen?”

“No.” Rowan got out of bed, the movement causing Fleetfoot's snore to pause, just for a moment, before her hound kept on sleeping.

Aelin really wished she was still sleeping.

Rowan came over to her side of the bed, her silk slippers and red silk robe in his hands.

It must be important, then, if it involved getting out of bed. Her nice, warm, comfortable bed.

Stretching, Aelin shuffled on her new slippers and robe—gifts from her mate that he had purchased during their trip to Antica—and left comfort behind as she took Rowan's hand in hers and let him lead her to wherever he wanted them to be so urgently.

On the way, Aelin heard the beginning motions of the cooks and morning guards leaving their barracks to begin a new day. The people they passed greeted them cheerily, and Aelin wished that she could have said that she responded as brightly as they did and she knew that they questioned the slight frown still gracing her face as she and Rowan walked without end.

Well, seemingly without end, but eventually, the queen and king-consort stopped in front of double wooden doors, the scent of lacquer still lingering in the air.

“Buzzard, did you really bring me hear to admire these freshly lacquered doors? Because if you did, you're sleeping on the floor for a week.”

Rowan smiled at her, his eyes sparkling, her curiosity growing at the joy in his eyes. “No, I didn't bring you here to see these doors, but I brought you here to see what's beyond them.”

“And what is behind these doors?” Aelin asked, although deep down, she already knew.

Rowan's smile grew. “My mating present to you—your royal library.” With his wind, Rowan opened the doors, the wood gliding smoothly against the stone floor.

Aelin wondered inside, her eyes darting from place to place. It looked just like the Great Library of Orynth before it burned down—but instead of simple windows (although there were plenty of them), Aelin spied stained glass instead. Some depicted flora and fauna, some books and swords, ancient art from around the world. But the most glorious one of all was the one that Aelin was staring at right now; the Lord of the North, his eternal flames bright even in glass, surrounded by kingsflame.

“This is what I wanted you to see, the dawn lighting up the new era of knowledge. I managed to find some of the old librarians that worked in the Great Library and they're more than willing to come back here again.”

Aelin spun around, her eyes filling with tears as she took in her mate. When she had first met him, she never thought that he could be capable of doing such things, but here he was, standing with her in her new library in his night clothes and slippers.

Tears fell from her eyes as she hugged him tightly, breathing him in as he wrapped his arms around her just as tight.

“Rowan...” she breathed, not able to find the words right then and there, but he knew—he knew what she wanted to say without her being able to say it. He kissed her on the cheek, forehead, anywhere that his lips could reach in their tight embrace.

They stayed like that for eternity, until eventually Rowan pulled away and turned her around to the window of the Stag, his arms wrapping around her waist, his chin resting on her shoulder as he told her to watch as the sun rose up the horizon, lighting up her library—sending rainbows to scatter throughout the space.

More tears fell at the beauty of the world. A reminder, that while she may still face her nightmares of her time with Maeve and Cairn, she was alive and living an eternity with her mate and husband. Her best friend.

They stayed in that exact spot until the sun rose high and while she could have spent years in the library, her stomach had other ideas.

She and Rowan walked to the kitchens, not caring about still being in their night clothes as they came across their hard working cooks and in the middle of the table full of food ready to go out, was a chocolate hazelnut cake.

Aelin kissed her mate again and all but dragged him and that cake back into their bed chamber to finish off the most beautiful day she had in weeks.

[storm-of-letters]

Hm...may I request Royal margarine x reader? Or maybe dark choco x reader? Either one is fine!

A Glimmer of Hope✨

A/N: Thank you so much for the request! Please know that reader in this story, or any of my stories, is considered gender neutral. If you spot any grammar mistakes, please let me know.

It was a dark snowy evening, when the Cookies of Darkness arrived at the outskirts of Dark Cacao Kingdom. They lurked in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike and conquer. To Dark Enchantress and her minions, this was merely a stepping stone for them to accomplish their final goal, but to Dark Choco, Dark Cacao Kingdom held a special place in his heart. It had been his home.

As time went on, the storm worsened. This, however, didn’t stop the Cookies of Darkness, instead they were just as eager as ever. It was absolute chaos, with Red Velvet training his cake hounds and Poison Mushroom offering others their shroomies. Dark Choco sighed, rubbing his temples. Something about invading his homeland felt off.

Eventually, after the storm had calmed down, he decided to explore a nearby village to clear his mind. It was the middle of the night, so most of the villagers were asleep, expect for you. You were walking down the streets, shivering slightly except to the cold. Dark Choco ran over to you and took off his cloak, wrapping you in it, like a true gentleman.

You suddenly felt a pair of strong arms around you and looked up. Standing in front of you was a cookie whose hair was raven black with a white streak. You instantly recognised him, since he looked almost identical to your king, Dark Cacao. You asked, “Hey… aren’t you the prince?”

Dark Choco stiffened and looked away, avoiding your curious stare. He seemed almost embarrassed, or ashamed… or perhaps a little bit of both. He took a few deep breaths before reluctantly answering, “I was, but not anymore…”

“I see…” sensing that he didn’t want to talk about this, you decided to not push any further. You grabbed his hand and led him to your house, which caused Dark Choco to blush a bit. He wasn’t used to such affection, as it was the first time someone showed him any genuine kindness. Yes, he had the Cookies of Darkness by his side, but they always treated more as a tool than an actual friend.

Back at your humble abode, you made some tea to share with Dark Choco. He found you to be extremely talkative, and attractive too. You told him everything: your friends, your life as a resident of the kingdom, and even some random facts about yourself! It was great having someone who didn’t fear him and treated him as a friend.

As Dark Choco remembered why he was here, he could help but feel a pang of guilt. Dark Cacao Kingdom had been his home, and it still was to this day. For a long time, he had been confused, lost… but meeting you, he saw the light. With this newfound hope in his heart, he made a decision——he couldn’t let his home get destroyed.

“Thank you,” he said, taking your hand in his own. His voice was sweet like honey, and he looked at you with the gentlest stare. Dark Choco gently pressed a kiss to your knuckles. “For giving me hope…”

“N-no problem,” you replied. You watched with flustered cheeks, as he grabbed his cloak, preparing to head back and call off this invasion. He didn’t know what would happen, but he had to give it his best shot, for you and for his homeland.

Before he left, Dark Choco took you in his arms, and kissed both your cheeks. You noticed that there was a subtle blush on his cheeks, matching your own. “I hope we meet again, dear…”

~End~

[vulpes-fennec]

Happy Day 3 of @sjmromanceweek!!!

Pairings mentioned: Nessian, Gwynlain, Rowaelin

I’m going to leave all the “Dear Suriel” parts a mystery to the readers hehe. You can read the regular text below the cut!

Dearest reader, if you did not have the pleasure of attending Nesta Archeron and Cassian’s mating ceremony last week, I feel sorry for you. But Suriel, I thought you were dead? Rest assured that death is merely the gateway from one realm to the next. 

Under the flower-bedecked temple by the flowing Sidra, Nesta and Cassian exchanged tender vows and offered each other sweet cake. Cynical readers may question the purpose of such extravagance. Is such formality necessary when two people already love each other, when they have already accepted their mating bond? This author posits a different question: why live, if we cannot find causes for celebration? 

But sending well wishes to the happy couple was not my sole reason for attending the mating ceremony. As we all know, there is nothing this author loves more than a scandal. It has become common knowledge that a singular stained glass necklace was offered to Elain Archeron, and then Gwyneth (Gwyn) Berdara last Winter Solstice by an errant Azriel Shadowsinger. I can only hope Mr. Shadowsinger’s future partner does not have the love language of gift-giving! 

Society, like a snarling, salivating hound, has hungered for an explosive resolution to this whole debacle. With both ladies attending the ceremony, has the other shoe finally dropped? 

Not in the way you may presume. For the gentle Kingslayer and the cheerful Valkyrie were spotted giving each other shy glances while walking down the aisle. After the luncheon, Gwyn sidled up to Elain with an innocent request to dance. As the rest of the party grew raucous over copious cups of wine, Elain gave Gwyn a tour of the peaceful River House garden, demurely clasping the priestess’s hand midway.  

Surprised, reader, by this budding romance? Not I. Miss Archeron spoke true of not wanting a male, and perhaps Miss Berdara will find solace in feminine intimacy as she ventures out of the library. 

Thanks to the revocation of Cassian’s Summer Court ban, the happy couple is currently soaking up the sun in a stunning overwater bungalow. Let us pray that the Illyrian general does not destroy yet another Summer Court dwelling with his…honeymoon activities. 

One can only assume that Nesta and Cassian had their hands full, as they did not pay a visit to the Adriata’s annual Turtle Days Festival. A shame! This author is particularly fond of turtles, for they are some of the longest lived creatures in the sea. Wise, yes, but also prone to chit chat like me. After all, life can get incredibly dull without gossip… 

There is nothing like the warm sun and ocean breeze to put one in the mood for love. Summer Court’s most eligible bachelor, Tarquin, was spotted with a pretty female at his side the entire time! 

As schoolgirls tearfully take down the posters of their handsome High Lord, several of them wrestle with the silver lining: perhaps one day, they may have a shot with him. For it appears he does not limit himself to the court ladies when it comes to relationships! Tarquin guided his companion down the art gallery, listened attentively to her input while judging the seafood bisque contest, and tore up the dance floor with quadrille after quadrille. The two looked positively over the moon as they stole away to a secluded beach for an evening swim in the warm summer sea. 

Enjoy the honeymoon phase, young lovers! This mystery lady is certainly a lucky one, for the high lord of summer is working hard to ensure all fae are elevated to equal status in his court. For workaholics everywhere, this is a sign: perhaps finding love is the quickest way to make you all take a break.

Across the worlds, Her Majesty Aelin Ashryver Whitethorn Galathynius (a mouthful of a name!) and Prince Rowan Whitethorn have retreated to the royal summer estate on a much-delayed honeymoon.

While much of the estate has fallen into disrepair over the years, the remaining locals did their best to fend off looters and even buried the late prince and princess in the estate gardens. 

Queen Aelin is renowned for her love of luxury, but one can imagine that peace and quiet are of higher priority on her honeymoon. The opportunity to retreat from the hubbub of court should not be taken for granted, and I fully expect the couple to make the most of their privacy. 

Perhaps revisiting this once-beloved home and forging new memories is the final piece of healing needed for the young queen. This author does affirm Prince Rhoe and Princess Evalin were contentedly watching over the newlyweds from their garden bench. That is, before that pesky dog Fleetfoot decided to charge at me, snapping at my robes! All right, all right. This author will leave the happy family be. 

Dear Suriel, I am thinking of proposing to my girlfriend. Marriages, engagements, most of all love…these are foreign to us Ironteeth witches. So I have been doing my research: I’ll need to procure a diamond ring, take her to an upscale dining establishment, plan a fun sedentary activity for afterwards, say a sappy speech, and get down on one knee. But I am worried she will decline because this may be a long-distance marriage (we have duties to our respective queendoms). Respectfully, Abraxos’s Mom. 

Dear Abraxos’s Mom, I am honored you consider me the expert in marriage proposals. I commend your commitment to researching an unknown area, but I am sure your darling would find more meaning in a personalized proposal over an expensive (and sometimes gaudy) one. I suggest finding a ring that will, most importantly, fit. I also recommend focusing on her favorite dishes, rather than expensive fine-dining. Speeches are not a must before the fateful words “will you marry me,” but if the moment calls for it, opt for genuine words over spouting poetry. Wishing you luck!  

Win a free honeymoon trip to Terrasen National Forest! A three-night stay at the Peregrine Resort, complete with deer park, Kingsflame meadows, Staghorn mountains aerial tramway, spa, and fine dining vouchers for two! 

Erilea residents only. Submit your wedding invitation and the story of how you met your partner to Terrasen Parks Service before Beltane Eve.

Time for a wedding planning moment!

*The scene takes place in the Vanilla Kingdom. Madeleine and Espresso were sitting in the living room, looking at some papers.*

Espresso: *shows one paper to Madeleine* What about this one? It looks good.

Madeleine: It looks good but...it might clash with our suits. Maybe if we have this one? *Shows a different paper to Espresso*

Espresso: That one looks good but...I really do like this one.

Madeleine: *smiles* That's alright. We can update our suits to match that one. I'm sure Mont Blanc won't mind.

Espresso: You don't have to. The suits were perfectly fine.

Madeleine: Hey. *gently nudges Espresso to look at him* It's your day too. And I know I did push you to invite your father but I want you to be happy on this big day.

Espresso: I know but why invite my father?

Madeleine: Well...think of it as this. You two can start over on a new page and enjoy one of your happiest days or he can become entertainment for the Cake Hounds.

Espresso: *giggles* Good point. I'm sure this day will be perfect. *kisses Madeleine*

Madeleine: *smiles* Yeah. And I'm sure the night will be too.

Espresso: As long as your siblings and cousins don't make a scene before that special night.

Madeleine: Of course. I'll make sure they don't do anything stupid. *his phone goes off. He picks up his phone and sees a text message from Red Velvet. He opens it up to see...an interesting text message.* Huh...

Espresso: What is it?

Madeleine: Red Velvet and Elder Custard are bailing both Capsaicin and...Elder Custard's son.

Espresso: Custard Cream is way too young to go to jail. So what did Clotted Cream do to even get him and Red Velvet's ward in jail?

Madeleine: Oh no...Elder Custard's third and oldest son, Royal Margarine Cookie.

Espresso:...*looks at Madeleine* You have another cousin who's also a trouble magnet?

Madeleine: Apparently. And he's also coming to the wedding too. *sighs* I have my work cut out.

Reader resting on red velvets chest please...also one of reader resting on clotted cream's chest and affogato's chest and caramel arrow's and royal margarine's...aaand dark choco's too!

(Sorry, the mozzarella one inspired me a little too much and ended up throwing in the crushes...couldn't resist, I'm sorry! They are all just so amazing!)

He'll stop whatever he's doing whenever you decide to do this. When the cake hounds decide to join in, too, he knows he won't be getting up anytime soon. He doesn't mind at all, finding it very sweet.

It usually happens during his work hours, when you're curled on his lap and your head on his chest. Sometimes you'll drift off to sleep, but he'll keep you there. He can't help but crave your affection.

During her down times, she'll cuddle with you, and you'll rest your head on her chest. It gets her a little flustered, but hey, it makes you happy! She'll hold you closer too, enjoying your warmth.

Affogato will stroke your hair when you rest your head on his chest. He'll talk to you during this time, sometimes even lulling you to sleep. He loves seeing you ap vulnerable with him.

He gets incredibly flustered. He's not that used to physical affection, so you just resting your head on his chest throws him off guard. Doesn't mean he doesn't like it, though!

Ok so here is Hazelnut Cookie, Dew Pop Cookie and Cream Oreo Cookie's Backstory....

===============================

Cream Oreo Cookie

===============================

??? Cookie: Hello? Hello? Are you okay Mister or Miss?

They asked as they used there staff to poke the unconscious Cookie who slowly moved and opens it's eyes...

They slowly sat up and rubbed the back of there head as they groaned

??? Cookie: Wh-who...?

wh-where...?

Where am I...?

They asked as they looked at there surroundings

And who are you?

They asked in a confuse way as they then look at the short little...Cookie?

No...

That's not right...?

Right?

Custard Cookie |||: Hello my fellow Cookie!

My name is Custard Cookie |||!

And who might you be?

??? Cookie: Oh! I-I uhm...I...

They looked around trying to come up with a name...

Why can't they remember there own name?

Also did he just said "Cookie?"

??? Cookie: My name is...uh...

They then got a glanced of there hair and there clothes...

They look like an edible Cookies and Cream Flavored Ice Cream...

Oh! That's it!

Cream Oreo Cookie: My name is...Cream... Oreo...Cookie..!

Y-yeah that's it!

Cream Oreo Cookie

She giggled nervously

Custard Cookie |||: What a Wonderful name for a wonderful Young Lady!

If I may ask...

Why are you sleeping in the middle of nowhere in the forest?

Cream Oreo Cookie: I could ask you the same thing

Custard Cookie |||: Well I'm on a quest to build my own kingdom!

For you see I am royalty because only royalties and the nobles of noble have the name "The Third" in it

Cream Oreo Cookie: That's not how..

Actually, Nevermind

I don't wanna ask

And also aren't you way too young to go alone?

Custard Cookie |||: No comment but What about you?

What are you doing here in the forest alone?

He asked with his head tilted a bit to the left

Cream Oreo Cookie: Since you don't wanna answer m first question then I will also have No Comment on this question of yours CC

She crosses her arms

Custard Cookie |||: Okay that's fair

Also I'm fine with any nicknames but...can you put "The Third" there?

Cream Oreo Cookie: No

She answered as she stood up and put her hands in her Jacket's Pockets

Custard Cookie |||: Okay Fine, But anyways

Wanna come along with me to this quest of mine?

My fellow servant!

He asked with enthusiasm with his staff pointed up high to the sky

Cream Oreo Cookie: Sure but please don't call me that-

Custard Cookie |||: Haza! Come now Fellow Servant!

Let's go find a place to put my newly Kingdom!

Cream Oreo Cookie: Whatever...

She sighs following the young Cookie

Custard Cookie |||: That's great! Now onwards!

2 weeks later...

Custard Cookie |||: Shoo! Shoo! Go away! Skedaddle!

He shouted trying to make the little cake creature leave him and Cream Oreo Cookie alone who only watched in amusement with her arms crossed

Cream Oreo Cookie: Heh, They like the way you taste CC

I bet there going to turn you into Jelly Meat

She chuckled

Custard Cookie |||: How DARE you! I'm no food!

He shouted after finally making them leave

Suddenly...

A new Cake Monster emerge and they happened to have a crown on there head

Custard Cookie |||: Whoah!

A cake puppy!

And your wearing a crown!

Wait-

Don't tell me!

ARE YOU LIKE, ROYAL???

ARE YOU NOBLE JUST LIKE ME?!

This peaked Cream Oreo Cookie's interest as she went to her knees to try and pet the said Cake Puppy

For some reason...

Petting the little Cake Puppy familiar to her...

Cream Oreo Cookie: I think there just a normal Cake Puppy, CC

The Cake Puppy then jumped on him and started licking him which made Cream Oreo Cookie a bit jealous

Custard Cookie |||: He he he! Stop! Seriously!

THAT TICKLES!

He continues to laugh

But then they started to bite

Custard Cookie |||: Ha ha ha! YOWCH! No biting! Ha ha!

Cream Oreo Cookie: Oh don't worry CC

It's just playful biting

She said petting the cake puppy and was also getting licked by which made her giggle...

This feeling was so...familiar to her...

Why is that?

??? Cookie: The Cake Hound!

There it is!

A Cookie suddenly shouted from behind the two

Because of that the Cake Puppy or well Cake Hound

Ran

Custard Cookie |||: Oh, Cute Puppy !

Where are you going!

He started chasing after them

Cream Oreo Cookie: CC!

Ugh, Wait!

Don't follow them!

Your going to get lost!

She run and immediately grabbed his arm before he gets away and follow the Cake Hound through the thick forest and get lost

Custard Cookie |||: Aww...

He said sadly

??? Cookie: Escaped Again...

She sighed

??? Cookie: Ahem...please?

Custard Cookie ||| then got his attention towards the new Cookie and immediately forgotten the Cake Hound they encountered

Custard Cookie |||: O-ho! Ha ha!

Greetings, my faithful and-

VERY handsome and VERY cute Cookies!

It's so wonderful to meet you!

He stood his right foot up on a small tree stomp while the other is on a small piece of log half buried onto the ground

I am Custard Cookie The Third!

"The Third" by the way being extremely important, and super-cool

A certain Cookie pretends to cough and spat out

Cream Oreo Cookie: Not really

Before coughing again

He ignores her

Custard Cookie |||: IS IT NOT NOBLE?

IT'S BECAUSE I'M NOBLE!

Cream Oreo Cookie: Nope

She coughs again

He ignores her again

Custard Cookie |||: Yup, yours truly is from a long, long line of amazingly NOTABLE NOBLES!

Cream Oreo Cookie: Doubt it

She yet again pretended to cough again

Custard Cookie |||: OH JUST HUSH YOU!

He shouted finally being fed up with her shenanigans and sighs

Anyways...

I'm searching for land to build my future kingdom on!

These lands look positively, possibly perfect!!

And as YOUR king, I will rule JUST and FAIR-

Don't forget I'm "The Third", k?

It's very important!

Cream Oreo Cookie: Nope-

Custard Cookie |||: CREAM OREO COOKIE!

She chuckled

??? Cookie: Wow! At last, we'll have ourselves a real KING!

??? Cookie: Er-What? But-

I can't believe what your saying...!?

??? Cookie: Aw Wizard Cookie...

He can't handle the great news!

What a sweetheart.

Wizard Cookie: No, No, No!!! It's just- I'm- HUNGRY.

That's it.

Yeah.

??? Cookie: Same here actually...

??? Cookie: That's right...

We haven't eaten since the whole witch thing!

That was pretty bad...

Cream Oreo Cookie's POV: Witch...?

Why does that word...

Sound so familiar...?

Sugar Gnome: Have a Star Jelly Good Cookies!

Not only sweet, but also highly nutritious!

Doo-ba-dup!

??? Cookie: Don't mind if I do!

Gingerbrave: Oh and Uh...

By the way

My name is Gingerbrave and Over here is my Sister Gingerbright, Her Girlfriend Strawberry Cookie and My Boyfriend Wizard Cookie

Wizard Cookie: Hello yes, yes..

Strawberry Cookie: It's nice to meet you two

Gingerbright Cookie: We're glad to have you guys on board!

Cream Oreo Cookie: Yeah...Cool...

She said a bit skeptical about the word "Witch" and to where this 4 Cookie's came from...

===============================

Hazelnut Cookie

===============================

??? Cookie POV: Everything.. hurts...

Ugh....

What happened...?

Where am I...?

???? Cookie(1): Your Majesty! Don't come near them!

They might be a stray beast ready to attack!

???? Cookie(2): Yes your majesty! Let's go back to the kingdom and rest after the long expedition around Beast-Yeast

??? Cookie POV: Beast...Yeast?...

What?

??? Cookie(3): Do not worry Mercurial Knight Cookie and Silverbell Cookie for I know what I'm doing...

The Mysterious Cookie then walked towards the bushes and as he split the bushes away from eachother to discover a Young Angel Cookie on the ground scared...

The Faerie Cookie smiled softly as he walked closer and got on one knee

??? Cookie(3): Hello there young Cookie...

Are you lost?

What are you doing here all alone in a such dangerous place?

Where are your parents?

He asked...

The young Cookie tried to speak but as they tried to speak no words came out which cause the little young Cookie shocked for they know for sure they can speak before(?) and had a voice but now...

They don't...

They tried and tried again but only small noises came out as if she was mute

This made the young Cookie sad and started to cry

The Faerie got worried and tried to soothe the young one

??? Cookie(3): Don't cry young one for your tears will only cover your adorable and beautiful smile

Soon after Mercurial Knight Cookie alongside Silverbell Cookie came and inspected what was happening and saw the little young one

Mercurial Knight Cookie: A Child...?

What is a child doing here...?

Silverbell Cookie: Oh dear...

The poor Cookie must be so lost and scared right now

??? Cookie: Let's take her back to the kingdom

The poor angel might be so hungry, tired and scared for being in a place such as this...

Mercurial Knight Cookie and Silverbell Cookie: Yes Elder Faerie Cookie!

??? Cookie POV: Elder Faerie Cookie...?

Elder Faerie Cookie: Come now Child

Let's go...

But first...

May I ask your name?

She wanted to speak but then stops since she will only speak in small noises

Elder Faerie Cookie: Oh...Ofcourse

I forgot...

Hm...

Try and write it on the ground if you can unless...

You know Sign Language?

She then immediately got invested in the idea and immediately looked around her surroundings to see a small sharp rock to use to write her name...

Unfortunately she doesn't know her real name is...

But before she starts writing she scratched her head until she felt something on it...

As she reached over her left pigtail...

She realized that her Hair Tie is not what it seems to be and as she took it out and examine it

She immediately thought a name of her...

"Hazelnut Cookie"

Elder Faerie Cookie: Hazelnut Cookie...

What a beautiful name young one

Come now

Let's bring you to a much more safer place and maybe my wife could help you learn sign language so you won't have to write on the ground or on some piece of paper

Silverbell Cookie: I could also help with that Your Majesty!

Elder Faerie Cookie: Oh? Well that's nice

Please do

If you can

Silverbell Cookie: Yes Your Majesty!

He saluted

Hazelnut Cookie smiled and stood up and so did Elder Faerie Cookie

He then offered his hand which Hazelnut Cookie slowly accepted and smiled widely but before they leave

Mercurial Knight Cookie gave Hazelnut Cookie a Brown Teddy Bear

Mercurial Knight Cookie: Is this yours?

He asked after picking it up next to where she fell

She then looked at this and took it and smiled widely up at him

Mercurial Knight Cookie nodded once before going to the other 10 guards waiting behind them

Mercurial Knight Cookie: Back to position and let's get back to the Silver Tree Kingdom!

He shouted in command which startled Hazelnut Cookie a bit which made Elder Faerie chuckled

Elder Faerie Cookie: Don't worry young one

That's just how he is since he is the Captain of the Silver Knight Cookie's

Hazelnut Cookie was amazed and giggled happily and walked beside Elder Faerie Cookie while holding his hand

==============================================================

They woke up in a green fiery crater with cracks of...acid...?

Green soda...acid?

And was immediately and suddenly was filled with anger...

They sat up and immediately was met with a little Cookie flying with there arms crossed...

??? Cookie: HEY! WHAT GIVES!? YOU SCARED MY VICTIMS!

THEY WE'RE SUPPOSED TO GET SCARED AND PRANKED BY ME!

NOT YOU!

He shouted...

Before they could speak they we're cut off by him again

??? Cookie: Wait a minute...

Your a demon too?

They seemed surprised a bit from what he said but they didn't showed it on there face and continues to have a blank one while they start to went ahead and looked at there green-ish demon wings and there tail they didn't even noticed that was swaying slowly and same goes for there green horns...

??? Cookie: Huh...

It's been awhile since I've seen an actual demon other than me...

Hm...

Okay then newbie

The names

Devil Cookie

What about you?

They looked at him for while and it was dead silent until they finally spoke after observing there surroundings of cracks o nthe ground with green like soda acid glowing...?

Dew Pop Cookie: Dew Pop...

The name's

Dew Pop Cookie

They said monotoned

Devil Cookie: Well I wouldn't say it was nice to meet ya but anyways your my new minion now that your in MY Territory and do what I say

Dew Pop Cookie: No, But I will stay here

She said putting her hands behind her head and walking towards the abandoned castle Devil Cookie was staying at

Devil Cookie: Do what I say or else!

Dew Pop Cookie: OR ELSE WHAT?

She said looking back at him with all of a sudden got her whole body go up in green flames and her sclera turning black

She herself was a bit surprise for what happened with her body turning to flames but quickly dismissed it to gain dominance over the small Cookie

Devil Cookie: Uh- N-nevermind, Just stay or whatever

Just don't touch my stuff!

He said seeing how the Demon Cookie infront of him is much older and probably is much more powerful than him...

Dew Pop Cookie: Thought so...

She continues to walk towards the castle with her hands going back behind her head

==============================================================

Cream Oreo Cookie, Dew Pop Cookie and Hazelnut Cookie:

Who...Am...I?

Why can't I remember?

[clottedcreamtea]

yeah so i made a little interlude in order for the next chapter to make sense.

ALSO IM POSTING THIS ON AO3 NOW!!! I'm just also posting it here to make hype :) or something

enjoy this silly small excerpt

...(The Proposal)

"I’m surprised she said no.”

Custard Cookie and Mille-feuille Cookie had sent their children to bed, deciding to return to the bay outside of Oyster Manor, conversing with each other about the great argument they had just endured. 

The vanilla-scented elder huffed a laugh from his cream beard. “Yes, well, that’s Oyster Cookie. A blackmailing politician with morals.”

“Ha! You don’t hear that every day, do you?”

The pair sat in silence, watching the ships sail across the rolling sea.

After a few moments of letting the sea salt breeze cross her face, Mille-feuille Cookie began to smile and spoke, “Financier Cookie would agree to a proposal.”

Custard Cookie turned sharply to his fellow elder, unconvinced she was being serious. “Would she?”

The dark-haired elder nodded. “I spoke to her just before bed, telling her how honorable the act would be!” Mille-feuille Cookie laughed heartily. “She’d do anything I asked of her. She is the most loyal paladin in all the Republic. Nearly acting like a lost cake hound looking for an owner to rely on!”

Custard Cookie grinned, but it soon faded when he remembered his son’s qualms with the proposal. “Clotted Cream Cookie has quite the infatuation with Oyster Cookie’s prodigy… I worry that it ventures past the boundaries of a mere bond between friends.”

Mille-feuille Cookie scoffed and waved a hand in dismissal. “Oh, please. That young Cookie is an effeminate excuse for an heir to the throne. I heard a rumor that he isn’t even Oyster Cookie’s real son!”

There was a long pause between the pair.

“An illegitimate son, you say?” Custard Cookie was intrigued.

“Mhmm. Have you never heard the legend of the knight’s son?” Mille-feuille Cookie adjusted her cream-colored shawl to avoid the growing breeze.

“Is it popular?”

“It’s popular with the lower city. The Cookies below us like to believe in Cinderella Cookie stories so that they can have hope that they, too, will achieve fame and fortune as we have.”

“What is the legend anyway?” Custard Cookie pressed.

“In simple terms, a couple of Cookies from the Dark Cacao Kingdom could not raise the child, so they sent him away to a promising nation, dropping him off at a doorstep of a Cookie who looked as though she could take care of him.”

Another pause. Waves crashed and birds cried in the evening air. 

“What are you trying to say, elder Mille-feuille Cookie?”

“I am simply providing a guarantee that Clotted Cream Cookie will not say no to the proposal. If he truly values Royal Milk Tea Cookie as deeply as you believe he does, he will do anything to protect the Oyster heir and his family’s reputation.”

Mille-feuille Cookie was right. Sure, it was immoral, but Clotted Cream Cookie was a pawn to be played with, not a sentimental family member to consider the feelings of. To ensure that House Custard remained at the top throughout the years to come, elder Custard Cookie would have to find some way to simply become more powerful, and joining two houses was the perfect plan.

After letting her colleague stir in the plot, Mille-feuille Cookie spoke once more, “I believe we have an agreement, do we not?” 

“Yes. I will discuss it with Clotted Cream Cookie in the morning. He won’t be happy with having to marry the young bodyguard as opposed to his close friend.”

“Oh, posh. Many of us have sat in marriage deemed miserable for years just to get where we are now. He shall learn to do the same or he is not fit to become the Consul of the Republic.”

The two turned to each other, providing a simple handshake and a nod before turning to leave, and returning to their homes.

[peepawleo]

Thé boards will fall and glass will break the hound will eat them like a cake, this hound of hell is one of well it’s to serve its master of royal pale

...Cryptic. But aight.
