This AU will take place around where the Beasts are already sealed within the Silver Tree. Sure, the witches still took half of the powers of the soul jam with only the uncorrupted remnants and scatter them across Earthbread to find more worthing cookie to own them. But this is where the story changes. They had search far and wide for the thousands of years. After for doing that for so long, one of the lights within the soul jam did something that not even the witches didn't think ahead: it created it's own physical body and became an owner of itself. The other did the same one by one. The only downside to it is they'll forget what/who they truly are and believe that they're a mortal cookie who is the owner of the soul jam.

Now, I'll give you a small summary of each light:

Pure Vanilla Cookie was the first light to create his own physical form. He doesn't remember what he did or who he once was. He only knew his "name". His parents adopted him. Some of the cannon stuff of the OG is the same, aside from already being the "owner" of the soul jam from the very start and not exactly a normal cookie. At least until we get to the part where he goes to Beast Yeast with Gingerbrave and the gang.

Golden Cheese Cookie became the second light to make her own physical form. Just like Pure Vanilla Cookie, she has no recollection of her past life and already has her soul jam much earlier. She does know her "name " though. She lived on her own throughout her childhood and learned so much from other cookies in the desert (I'll add more to it, once I play her story in the game).

Hollyberry Cookie was the third light to follow her friend's footsteps by giving herself a physical body. Also just like her friends, she isn't aware of her old life, already has her soul from the start and knows her "name". But, unlike her friends, she had a son, Royal Berry Cookie, who will later marry Jungleberry and have a daughter of their own, Princess Cookie. (I'll talk more about half cookie and half light another time.)

Dark Cacao Cookie was the second last light to do the same as his friends and go through a similar pattern. No recollection of his old life. Owning a soul jam from the start. Only knowing his "name". Following the same path as Hollyberry Cookie, he had a son, Dark Choco Cookie.

White Lily Cookie became the last light to make her own physical body. She knows her "name" and owns a soul jam from the very start. However, weird enough, she recalls fragments of her previous life. She thinks that those are just "bizarre dreams". At least that's what she thought during her childhood. As she enters adulthood, she began to have second thought on those "dreams". It made her kinda question her existence.

Uhhhhhhh. I think I rather run with a face like that.

THE BOI >:3

Wait a minute! I don't remember inviting Corrupted Vanilla Cookie! O-O'

CW FOR MULTIPLE EYES AND POSSBLE SCARY IMAGERY

Anyway, he woke up in the middle of the forest, with no recollection on how he ended up there and how close he is to his home. He does come across a cookie, DoveChoco, and ask her for help. She was...shocked to say the least. But she couldn't possibly turn down a cookie in need. I'm sure that there won't be any hi-jinx.

“Downtown” (Vera's song AKA: the one without the omega symbol):

She seems to have some troubles in her life. So, instead of confronting it, she lets herself enjoy the moment into the really good parts of Manglewood.

“A Good Song Never Dies” (Marlon's song):

There's alot more to Marlon than he lets on. Some people see him as a local god. Some people see him as an actor. Some people see him as a member of the mafia. But nobody knows fully who or what he has truly become, even after the events of Out Walking The Dog 2. A sackperson who causes random things to happen for fun? A selfish God who twists the truth with a snap of his fingers? Even he’s trying to figure out who he is.

“In My Head” (Hildur's song):

There's something that Hildur is hiding well behind that smile. All the dialog is from the events of Out Walking The Dog 2. I think it's more than just that. It's MEMORIES of it from different people. I think Marlon wasn't able to erase them. He had to put it somewhere else. Where does he hide it? Inside of Hildur's mind! But doing so also broke his mind beyond repair. This was caused by the many memories playing in his mind at once. He was never the same after that. All he can do now is say the lines of what other people said from the movie. He might be smiling. But, behind the mask, he's truly suffering from the many voices in his head. 

The Devil is Human, Vera Omega’s song:

This digs deeper into her character. She wants to go to Bunkum or anywhere outside of her home, just like Hildur. She wishes that she could go experience things in person outside of her home.

"Wires", Chip Rotwood's song:

This truly shows how little Chip cares about Jr. He's completely fine with Newton killing him, even if it wasn't intentional. But his only regret with his son is not raising him correctly.

What You Know (Newton’s song):

Newton realizes the reason why Marlon lied to him this whole time. If he knew the truth, he wouldn’t want anything to do with him. Not if he caused so much suffering grief to others. Not if he’s the reason why his papa is gone. He understands in truth that Marlon doesn’t want to be alone. However, Newton needs time to process everything. To figure out his own future, now that he finally knows the truth.

“Not a Robot, But a Ghost” (Felica’s song):

Felicia fears that everyone is a robot, due to possible killing a robotic clone of herself in the past. But it could be more than just that. It’s possible that the robotic clones are ghosts in a shell. All the black blood we see in all the issues are from robots.

“Viva La Vida” (Vex’s song):

Vex was most likely misunderstood at his old home due to his appearance and moved to bunkum to hopefully start over. The same thing happened here. However, with time, people grew to like him for his acting career. 

“Somewhere Only We Know” (Captain Pud's song):

I can understand this song is like him talking directly to Nana Pud, after returning home from one of his long trips. But she has been very distant from him. My guess is she isn't too much of a fan of him being gone for so long. However, his feelings haven't changed for her. He still loved her very much and he tried to rekindle their relationship. Sadly though, it became too late, when he met his end. Too late for Nana to take back her actions.

“Cosmic Love” (Nana Pud’s song):

Nana misses her husband very much. She sees him in her son a little too much to the point where she pushes him away. It’s not like she hates him. She was in alot of pain from the loss of her soulmate. When Newton accidentally killed her, she was able to finally reunite with her husband, making her finally at peace in the afterlife  in a bittersweet kind of way.

“Pumped Up Kids” (Chip Jr's song):

He takes out anyone that he sees as a threat to him with his gun. He doesn't tolerate anyone that gets in a way of his future as the Mafia Boss. For example, he attempted to get rid of Newton. But we already know who ends up dropping dead.

“Dance Monkey” (Pinky’s song):

Pinky is trapped in a prison created by Marlon. She can’t break from it. Only stuck in a script of a fictional version of a fictional world. Inside of a book series to only live in the same events over and over again. For everyone to read for their own amusement, completely unaware of a person stuck inside of there.

“Love song” (Issac’s song):

Issac doesn’t have a full understanding of life for the mortals, since he’s a puppet who was given life. But he does want to have a better understanding of them though, which is why he asks Hildur about them.

“Send Me An Angel” (Gustovo’s song):

This song talks about how Gustovo fell in love with Felicia. When he first saw her, he thought he’s seeing an angel. She still is in his eyes, even when they started dating.

“Exhale Inhale” (The Eve bots’ song):

The Eve Bots have the job to take care of the patients and make sure that they’re in good health. The bots don’t feel emotions like the others. They are always calm, even if the disaster that’s yet to come in Issue #99.

“Doomsday” (Not Marlon/Enigma’s song)

Enigma (a nickname I gave to Not Marlon) only wishes for Marlon’s downfall. For his web of lies to fall apart and get his karma for everything. All out of a grudge for killing him.

“Night Before Dawn” (Clive’s song):

Clive sounds like the leader of the group of people who are against Marlon. Who knows the truth of what he did. He wears Captain Pud’s coat in honor of him, promising justice for everyone who has fallen at the hands of a false god with his friends. No matter what it takes.

“Epoch” (Zom-Zom’s song):

He has hope for a better future, despite how grim things currently are. He’s willing to try to push forward for the sake of his friends. Afterall, they’re not stuck in a script. They have freewill.

“Normalcy” (???’s song):

This song doesn’t belong to one person. It represents what could happen post #100. Newton learns the truth of what Marlon did. He forgives him for it. But he can’t possibly be in a relationship with him. Not when he needs time to process everything and gives himself space away from him for a while.Overtime, Newton grows to miss him as well, even though their relationship wasn’t really good. Marlon misses him so much to the point of making Stitchum Manor his home. He really wants him back. Back into his arms. To love him with all of his heart. But it’s too late to take it all back. 

Did you find some of them interesting or perhaps you had a similar theory for some of the songs? I really love to hear your opinions on what you think the songs that represent the characters mean story wise. Thank you for reading the 10th episode special of Tophat On A Stage Theory! Have a good day or night!
