[ "Let the games begin!" ] { SHADOW MILK COOKIE X GN!READER }

{ PROLOGUE.. }

[ YOU are gender neutral ]

In your hometown, beast yeast, before chaos ensued, you lived quite happily.

Sure your life was simple, but it was not that bad! In fact, you enjoyed what life would await for you on the path!

You tread along your village, watching as the sun shines upon the vast landscape.. A small smile plastered on your face, yes, you had no severe trauma that could break you down. At least..

You looked around, seeing as your fellow neighbors have a great time with families. Your dough was as warm and sweet as ever, ever since you were a newly-baked cookie. You were always happy and that's one thing that is important, you veered around the corners, greeting every passerby that's available.

That's what you'd always do..

[ Meanwhile.. ]

"Hrnngghh.. So bored!" Shadow Milk yawned as he pulled on the threads of his puppets, he wasn't really expecting anything exciting at the moment, ESPECIALLY when he just got finished entertaining his people.

He laid his head on his desk with his hat slightly tilting to the side, almost falling off..

He was bored; he wanted something to occupy him before he went on and started annoying the flour out of his fellow comrades, no pun intended for Mystic Flour though!

He sighed and looked out the window, watching as the sun was shining brightly upon the horizon, he fixed his cloak(?) and continued on with preparing for his next show that was soon to come up.

[ Back to you.. ]

You were actually attending Shadow Milk Cookie's show! Not overly a shocker, but you were invited by one of your fellow cookies! You had thought 'Maybe watching one of his performances won't be so bad!'

And oh boy.. When you say there were a lot of cookies, there were A LOT. You WERE expecting cookies but NOT this many! You had to squeeze through the crowd just to get in!

You could barely hear yourself, because of all the cookies talking to each other.. 'Yeesh.. This will be a tough time for me..' You thought as you made your way, squeezing through the crowd.

Little did you realize.. You had gotten into the back stage by accident! Mere coincidence.. You bumped into Shadow Milk who raised a brow confused.

"Heyy.. I thought this was strictly off limits! How'd you get in?" Shadow Milk tilted his head looking at you. "Oh.! I'm-I'm so so sorry, I didn't know I got in the back stage!" You apologized quickly.

"Woah woah! Hold your horses there! I'm not mad! Don't apologize so quickly now!" Shadow Milk said lightly, he puts a hand behind the back of his head.

"N-No it's my fault for going here—" "Take it easy will you? You're breathing heavily like you've run a marathon!" Shadow Milk lightly nudged you, he was trying to lighten your mood since you were so panicked by accidentally running into the back stage because of the intense crowd.

"Y-You're right I should calm down." You sighed, exhaling and inhaling slowly, you calmed your nerves. After all, it was an accident.

"There, you see? Now you're all right!" Shadow Milk smiled, gave you a thumbs up, as a good job for calming yourself.

"Oh! And— I don't think I haven't seen you just yet! I've seen different types of cookies come in to see my performances and I've remembered their names! Are you new to my show?" Shadow Milk said without breaking a single word, in fact, he spoke so fast you couldn't even catch up with what he said.

"Sorry..?" You blinked a few times. "Oh! Yeah what I meant to say, I haven't seen you just yet!" He explained at a moderate pace.

"Oh.. Yeah, this is the first time I attended your performance.." You said with a quick nod.

Shadow Milk nods. "Well nice to meet you..?" He extended his hand for a quick handshake "Y/N Cookie." You said, shaking Shadow Milk's hand. "Well nice to meet you, Y/N Cookie! You probably know me already but I'm Shadow Milk Cookie!" He said in a cheery tone.

"Ah, yes." You nodded. "Well show starts in 5 minutes! Oof.. Well! It was nice to meet you for the first time! I'll see you later!" Shadow Milk exclaimed before waving goodbye to you.

You immediately left the back stage after that and went to find your seat..

You found your friend whom has been awaiting for your arrival. "Goodness me! It took you long enough!" They said crossing their arms above their chest dramatically. "Not my fault you have thin patience.." You remarked and sat next to them.

"Well at least you're in time now!" They said lightly nudging you. "Does that have to do with me being late always?" You raised a brow at them.

"Well—" Your friend was cut off by the curtains opening. . .

The show begins. . .!
