#(he also kinda wants that cookie)

[imaginariumwanderer]

Okay gotta pitch it to you:

In my bluebell fic series (where custard gets yoinked by Shadow milk) one of the oneshots is nearly entirely centered around vanillas singing, he never sings in front of others(except for custard as lullabies), but he's never sung alone because Shadow milk has been watching and wondering why vani didn't become a singer even as a side thing.

Queue vani now using said singing to calm Shadow down from his darkest moments, and maybe just maybe if Shadow is good enough vani will sing a song he wrote.

"How nostalgic, your grandpa and dad used to love this song..."

Baby if it's cheesy then you can call me Remy

That's a cute pitch my friend. You would assume the singer of the duo would be SM but it's interesting to think it'll be PV instead. SM do have a liking of forcing others to follow his scripts, I'd like to imagine he'll do the same with his songs and such (my, an actor, playwright AND song writer? Such a multi-talented guy!) You just know he'll be tricking/convincing/guilting PV into singing them for him. "Wdym it's too embarrassing I WROTE THEM FOR YOU!"

PV's his singer and his muse

I don't got much more to add so here's some random in-game art of PV holding babies:

Sorry guys, wafer on the brain, it's terminal u.u

Anyway, I'll elaborate on this in the tags bc omg I'm going to yap your metaphorical ear off.

okay enough with the ship discourse! let's lighten the mood with some season 10 discussions! I'm really really excited to see the latter half of the story, and I'm super curious how this will going into next months update too! chocolate bark, and whatever second cookie that'll come in july, I cannot wait to see how things play out, the dragons have some of the most interesting lore in all of CR history (second only to the Novas hehehe my awesome space super sentai family 😄)

Absolutely, my friend! No more dumb discourse, only good and silly vibes

I actually meant to make a separate post talking about my thoughts on Season 10 of Ovenbreak, but I was always too busy to do so. Your ask gives me an excuse lol

I have LOVED this update so far. It's so great. The story is so great. Longan Dragon being 1000000000000 kilometers long and looking like an eldritch horror? Basically being Jörmungandr from Norse myth? Peak. Longan Dragon trapping everyone in some kind of mind prison and forcing them to endure constant pyschological assault? Peak. More dragon family lore? Peak. Chocolate Bark? Peak, I love him, he's so handsome and perfect, if only he was in Kingdom too

I think what I've enjoyed most so far is:

Dark Choco and Chocolate Bark backstory. I really enjoy their little mentor/student bond. CB is such a fun dude. He's tough but he's lighthearted and has a sense of humor. The way he speaks to DC is so charming, he's like a older brother or uncle almost

I think Dark Choco really needed someone like this in his life, you know? It's a big shame he left, even if it was for an important mission. It makes me wonder how differently things would've turned out if he'd stayed.

Also...

"My father" this, "my father" that. #SayHisName, Devsis lol

It's cool to get official confirmation that the Dark Cacao Kingdom exists (existed?) in Ovenbreak as well. And by extension, Dark Cacao himself exists (existed?) there too. And... he's not the most affectionate dad still lol. It's ok, he's still my favorite Ancient and Kingdom character. I am begging and pleading Devsis for more lore on this, hell give us a whole update focusing on Dark Choco PLEASE, he's been so neglected in OB and it's been a huge shame because he gets more attention in Kingdom. I love Dark Choco, I love how tragic he is, I love his redemption arc. (It's admittedly... less compelling here than it is in CRK, but that can be fixed with a Dark Choco-focused update imo)

I just really, really adore seeing the dragons interact with each other. I love their dynamic SO much, they're my favorite group in this whole series. I'm nutso about them individually and as a family/clan. It's been awesome learning more about Lychee and Longan especially; I love Lychee's unwilling attachment to Rambutan and her apparent longing for proper attention from/bonding with Longan, I love the way the Pitaya-Ananas-Lotus trio bicker and banter, THE LONGAN CHARACTER STUDY‼️‼️‼️ Pitaya may be my favorite dragon but Longan is the most complex and interesting one by far. The warped affection he feels for his family. The need to protect and govern them. The way he perceives time and the world at large. His sociopathic desire for absolute control and revenge for perceived injustices. The way he tries to manipulate the others into agreeing with him and going along with his plans (those scenes in the Dark Realm are fucking crazy. The way he warps and weaponizes their emotions and memories is actual textbook abuser/cult brainwashing shit)

What the actual fuck dude. Ok, Charles Manson lol. And I thought Shadow Milk was bad. (No lie I find Longan Dragon 10x more intimidating than Shadow Milk. He exudes an aura that SM simply does not. THIS is power. THIS is boundless knowledge sharpened into a blade and held against your throat. Shadow Milk may be a god but Longan Dragon is above even godhood. I'm way more scared of Longan than any of the Beasts)

Biggest scene for me though?

WHAT??? LAST SURVIVOR OF THE FLOWER DRAGONS??? WHAT???????????

In hindsight... yeah it was kind of obvious something was up with Lotus Dragon lol. The one flower in a group of fruits. Pretty on the nose. But it's still crazy to think about, you know? What happened to the other Flower Dragons? Why is Lotus the only one left? How did the other Fruit Dragons feel about taking her in? How did SHE feel about that, essentially being adopted by a rival clan? What if they had something to do with the Flower Dragons' demise? They better address this in the next half of the story istg. I will lose it. I WILL write a sternly worded email to Devsisters. I WILL cry

What this says about Longan's character is also quite interesting. It appears that his respect and affection for dragons actually does extend beyond his own immediate family. Enough to take in an orphan. This capacity for compassion and generosity is so unlike how Longan normally behaves. It makes for a really fascinating pivot from his usual modus operandi and adds a lot of depth to his thinking and character

(honestly, this makes me want and hope for Longan Dragon's surrender even more. I've always thought that Longan willingly standing down and ceding victory to the other dragons would be more impactful than him simply being beaten the normal way, aka through the Power of Friendship and Punching Stuff. I want Longan's love for his family to win in the end. I want him to come to realize that he really would have no choice but to eradicate his family in order to achieve his goals, and then forfeit because he could never bring himself to do it. They're the reason why he's doing any of this in the first place. I don't want him to change his mind about mortals or anything, he can stay a genocidal race supremacist lol. I just think it would be more interesting if he willingly stopped what he was doing just because he can't let go of his kin. Perhaps he truly is only clinging to an idyllic past long dead. It would hurt. Hurt his pride, his ego. But their preservation would require the destruction of his clan and he cannot stand for that. THEY are his mission. THEY are his dream. Yes, Longan will forever mourn this loss as he shall forever mourn the past itself. But at least he'll still have those four afterwards. Even if they hate him.)

The dragons make me so ill. I need to pelt them with rocks. Gonna call the Stone Dragons Pitaya was beefing with in prehistoric times and ask them for a favor

[premamelody]

pov you pulled up in the middle of their conversation (you will not remember the last hour within a few minutes)

[ilikerosesalot]

Oh chapter 19 of jambound. *Throws shadow milk at a wall* yeah that should summerize my feelings

[cricket-mound]

I am not immunity to batfleck dilf propaganda I fear. (nor is corensupes 😊😊)

HE JUST WANTS THAT COOKIE GUYS ‼️‼️ CANT BLAME HIM

[piromina]

thinking about this again

[speedyshark95]

Me n who

[how-to-humaning-401]

4 hours for this stupid cookie… yknow im actually like incredibly proud of this

[swiiivet-screamathon]

"Haha, Strawberry Crepe? Are you in here?"

"Hm? Pure Vanilla? Whad'ya want?"

"Ah, no particular reason, nothing inconspicuous, of course."

"Ah, right-- well, don't touch anything; have zero interest cleaning up other cookies' messes today."

"I'll do my best. What are you working on?"

"Someone actually came for me for some upgrades, its been so long I thought everyone had forgotten I could do that. So I want no distractions from that."

"Oho? Could I be curious on who wanted what?"

"Anything to help them sleep better and quicker, wanted to be out on the field as fast as possible-- capsule sounds easy peasy to me."

"Really? Its that easy with no negative side effects? Sleep is important you know."

"I don't assume this guy is particularly fussed about the negatives of sleeping for short amount of times. If no one fights you over it adjusting a cookies circuitry isn't that hard either, but it might make jellies taste weird."

"I think there might be some negative side effects that simply aren't being considered due to the character of the cookie, am I right?"

"He told me he wouldn't blame me for anything if he started feeling ill, not like he would anyways I'm not that careless with my contraptions, so for all I care anything could happen to him."

"If anything does make sure to tell me about it alright? I don't want any cookie suffering under my nose."

"Yeah, yeah, can't keep my workshop if I use it for evil. My memory works just fine."

"Speaking of no one in particular, how is it working with Espresso?"

"I didn't expect someone composed of his ingredients to respect the craft as much as he does, so he's fine. Spends most of his time working on the candies though so he's carved out his own space over there to work on it. As long as he doesn't randomly explode anything I don't have any issues with it, which fortunately he hasn't yet. It'd be nice if someone who spent so much time in my workshop cared about the wafflebots but it's not like he's causing any fights with them either."

"He can't read your mind you know, if you want him more involved you're going to have to communicate that."

"No, no-- Dragging someone who doesn't inherently care is no one to bother with, he stays over with his candies I stay over here with my stuff."

"As long as you're aware of that choice. Have you done that for him though; helped him at all with his candies?"

"Duh, he might be shockingly respectful despite his ingredients but he is characteristically frantic, he'll run around in a mad craze if anything takes longer than expected and I get put on babysitting duty whilst he grabs some solution from who knows where."

"Are you alright with that arrangement?"

"Its not that bad and it could be worse, if it means we get candies at all I guess it's a sacrifice worth making."

"Would you like an extra pair of hands to help out...?"

"Again? Unless you found some new cookie since the last time you brought that up--- ah, wait, right. I'm gonna have to think about that one, its quite the commitment."

"Take the time you need, I want to assure that it was just a passing thought, don't feel burdened to accept if you have any doubts."

"As always..."

"I think I should be returning to my duties, it was nice catching up with you though. Hope I didn't distract you too much."

"... It's not that hard to multitask when it comes to you, don't have to keep a close eye on you."

"The highest compliment one can get from you, haha. Have a good evening Crepe."

...

"I guess only one of you are actually leaving tonight."

[milkbreadtoast]

doodled Stayn from living with magicians webtoon... I like him :) (just felt like drawing random webtoon characters fsr lmao)

[burningcheese-merchant]

In “I don’t find it funny right now” considering burning spice instantly fell for golden cheese cookie kissing back and was about to pull at her top, was he planning for them to just start going at it on the battlefield? 😭 what was his next step

[ilovetv99]

thinking about ch0mpkin's evil evbo post (evilbo, if you will) and going "How can I align this with My Interests (the axes)" and the answer is Very easily actually

[buttercup-barf]

Under the cut are mostly self-insert doodles of decreasing quality. Again, not much directly tied to Team Fortress 2. Might as well toss these out while I have no access to my puter. Much yapping under the cut and in the tags incoming.

Another self-insert, this time less of a "here's me as a tenth class" and more of a "here's my game experiences translated into the class I would take the place of". The Cleaner. Although I guess they could still be wearing either suit. It doesn't matter that much.

That one Convict's Case taunt with Backup would be extremely funny, because the man would be on the verge of a breakdown (he does not want to go to jail so bad you have no idea). The second image- I owe no explanation. You know what I am. You see the pattern with my favourites.

The duality of the man. Resting face versus "just heard you express interest in religion/Russian folklore" face. He's not that hard to make friends with, when you pull him away from all the explosions.

Some doodles of trying to figure his face out. Unfortunately, the more I stare at him, the more I worry that he looks like A Certain Guy With The Last Name "Kazarin", and the fear of never being original in my life caught up to me.

Don't look at me, don't perceive me, I refuse to explain any of my actions to you.
