SorbetMint / PepperShark Oneshots | Open !

Rivalry // Non-Requested

TW for kins: If you kin either Sorbet or Gumball and don't feel comfortable with the concept of them fighting, it's best you don't read this one-shot. 

( Also dw Butter I had the idea for this one-shot a long long time ago, it's not directed at you, or anyone else for that matter- )

" Sorb, Gumball, c'mon ! I thought I saw a really pretty one over here ! " Peppermint called out as they started to dash to a spot on the beach, the two cookies walking behind them.

" Why do you have such an interest in shells ? They're so bland . . . " The tallest cookie said, arms behind their head as they followed the slightly younger sailor.

" Gumball I've told you this a million times ! You can find beauty in all colors, they don't always have to be so bright and vibrant. " They said as they picked up the shell, admiring it steadily by turning it over on all sides. " Sorbet knows what I'm talking about, right Sorb ? "

The pirate nodded, "ͦ ͦIͦnͦdͦeͦeͦdͦ ͦIͦ ͦdͦoͦ.ͦ ͦ"

The artist cookie scoffed, " I can never tell what he's saying. How are you able to tell ? "

" Well I used to be able to listen through my special shell, but eventually I found out I didn't need it anymore ! Not sure why, but it's nice since I get tired of carrying it so high up sometimes. " They said before they suddenly made a surprised face and started to speed walk to another shell. " Look at this one ! "

"ͦ ͦTͦhͦaͦtͦ'ͦsͦ ͦaͦ ͦgͦoͦoͦdͦ ͦsͦhͦeͦlͦlͦ ͦ.ͦ ͦ.ͦ ͦ.ͦ ͦyͦeͦ ͦhͦaͦvͦeͦ ͦaͦ ͦkͦnͦaͦcͦkͦ ͦfͦeͦrͦ ͦfͦiͦnͦdͦiͦnͦ ͦyͦeͦrͦ ͦoͦwͦnͦ ͦtͦrͦeͦaͦsͦuͦrͦeͦsͦ,ͦ ͦhͦuͦhͦ ͦ?ͦ " The shark bubbled.

Peppermint giggled a little, " Yes, I do ! And thank you, I hope that maybe one day I can have a whole collection of them ! "

Sorbet smiled, "ͦ ͦTͦhͦeͦnͦ ͦIͦ ͦhͦoͦpͦeͦ ͦyͦeͦ ͦfͦuͦlͦfͦiͦlͦlͦ ͦyͦeͦrͦ ͦdͦrͦeͦaͦmͦ ͦ!ͦ "

The sailor then started to laugh, " Of course you do ! You fulfilled your own after all ! " Sorbet shark began to laugh with them while Gumball stared at the two in complete bewilderment. " Wait a minute, stay here for a second you two. I have something to show you up ahead ! "

Sorbet smiled and waved at them slowly while Gumball gave them a thumbs up before they both watched Peppermint scurry off to a land cave in the distance. The pirate sighed softly.

" What's your deal ? Seriously why are you constantly staring at them and sighing ? " The cookie said as they crossed their arms. Sorbet just avoided eye contact by looking down and crossing their own arms, a slight blush appearing on their face.

" Oh I see . . . you like them, don't you ? Well let me tell you something fish tank filter . . . " Gumball kneeled down to their height a bit as Sorbet glared at them uneasily.

" You don't stand a chance. Do you think that you two could even be together ? You're barely able to spend time together as friends, yet you think you could last as something a little more ? You're a pirate, they're a sailor. You two are sworn enemies, it just isn't going to go the way you want it, bubble bitch. " They sneered, causing the shark to glare at them for a while before seemingly getting lost in thought.

The pirate seemed to be scheming something up when suddenly they picked up Gumball swiftly.

" HEY ! What are you doing !? " They yelled as they started to squirm, but Sorbet wouldn't let go. They were walking towards the water when they stopped, then started to walk along the shoreline, pausing every few minutes to look into the water. Eventually, they went back to a certain spot near the water and threw Gumball in, having them shriek before a splash would sound and they'd suddenly look confused.

" It's . . . shallow ? " They looked at Sorbet, the shark looking down once more yet keeping their head up high. " I thought you were going to kill me, but I'm barely wet . . . " Gumball said as they easily stood up and got out of the water with a few steps.

" Hey I'm back I wanted to sho- oooooh why is Gumball wet ? " Peppermint asked, worried about his friend.

" Uh . . . I tripped into the water. Sorbet helped me out . . . but I'm not sure why. " They said, still shocked a little.

" Oh, Sorbet may be a pirate but they don't really like hurting other cookies. They only try to do it if they have to, that's one of the reasons why we get along ! I don't think I'd be friends with any other pirate who isn't like that. " They giggled a little.

" Oh, thanks Sorbet . . . " Gumball said, looking down at the pirate shark, a guilty look on their face as they now understood that they had misjudged them, badly. They held out their hand in return, letting it open. Hesitantly, Gumball took It and shook the cookie's hand as they smiled patiently.
