The fun never ends!

As a lesbian, I look upon the fandom in disappointment. man. I can't take this shit no more like.... genuinely not a question rooted bc "omg another woman" bc im all for women. Truffle and Bonbon are cream of the crop women and should totally kiss but like. Why did we need Raspberry when we had Raspberry Mousse already in existence. Once again, this is not bc I'm lesbophobic/sexist. I genuinely think Raspberry is an unnecessary character from a writing standpoint because she's literally Mousse but a woman. I feel like she's more of a side character than anything compared to him :|

Also adding onto this bc I know a lot of people are going to GRILL ME ALIVE FOR THIS ONE I also really hope devsis expands on seamoon's relationship! the concept is SUPER good but like... it jsut needs more substance! I want to be invested in seamoon! I really do! They just need that little plotline where they have some story together and maybe have them meet? I deadass do not know Canon Moonlight's personality aside from "wow these stars are very edible. I wanna talk to sea fairy but im too sleepy to float down there sorry lmao"

And, if you think I hate just women, no! I guess I hate all people now because I feel like Almondfort is overhyped and also needs more characterization... That's literally a thief and a 40 year old wrinkly raisin trying to catch them via sitting at a desk for 9238472349784923478493278 hours and only showing himself when necessary? And his whole personality is just an open book to them, like... where's the fun in that. that's so predictable and unfun :( which is why I say *offers you Earlfort/Roguealoe but only slightly bc they're rarepairs i understand u*

a big thing that could solve a lot of the shipping issues is that devsis needs to stop releasing so many new cookies. I know it's an obligation for them, but some are getting left in the dust in favor of others, and fans of older cookies may never get much lore for their favorites again. And like, I don't mean just the little bits of dialogue in events and what have you, I mean full blown recurring mini-stories with characters getting more concrete personalities to go off of, perhaps have them interact with more than just the commons every time? I know they can't do that but if I was in charge I'd do that just to be a little silly.

There was an odd silence after Susie butted in and refused Kris the option of choosing one or the other to go with. They already had Jevil with them, anyhow! *yet, it felt a bit emptier with only two people. You looked at the jester, who was tapping his foot impatiently.* “Are we going to go, or something, thing?” He still seemed playful, thankfully. “I didn’t know silence could ring!! What’s more, it rings loud for you, you!!” *You nod, telling him that you just needed a moment.* “AH, DON’T TELL ME YOU’RE SOME MACHINE!!” He chortled, going ahead of Kris with a skip in his gait. “Then, let me guide, lest you come down with a case of the beans!” *Beans?* “See, see? You’re doing better already! No need to be all space-y!!!” Kris couldn’t help but follow, being led through a narrow alleyway to a series of...broken holograms? It was easy to see what came from them, as they all seemed to gather in one spot. The two looked on, the jester drawing his scythe. “I say, we show ‘em what for, for!!!” *You try to say that’s a horrible idea, but you find yourself being pulled along by him. For his size, you’re surprised he has this much strength!* “NONSENSE! Now, let’s get our foot in the door, do-AAAH!!!” He was thrown off by one of the feline entities suddenly swiping at the two. “Tsk… good for nothing cat, cat!!! Take this loss easy, or meet the end of the kid’s bat!!” *It’s a sword.* “SAME DIFFERENCE!!!” He readied some spades, an attack that was quick to throw out to give Kris time to decide on what they were going to do. Well...at least he thought the one wielding the sword would take forever. Yet, they didn’t, following hot on his trail to take the brunt of the sound waves being thrown at them. *You remembered Ralsei’s words…* “Please, do keep in mind that if one from the card castle dies here...there’s no reviving them.” *You could not let that fate befall any of the people you have saved prior… Even if Jevil was capable of taking quite a bit of damage without breaking a sweat.* “HEY, NO FAIR, FAIR!!! We’re both fighting, can’t you share!?” The jester huffed in response, surprised to see Kris shaking their head at the thought. They couldn’t dare do something like that… right? *that’s when you saw it. A little flash of white amid the crowd of other felines- ah, Tasques, were they? You would have figured it was just another of them, but the one that was quite peculiar… whatever it was, it cried out in pain. You were about to move, but-* “LOOK OUT, BLIND EYES!” A shout came from behind them as they were shoved away, the scythe being the only thing between the two of them and the cat. “If you’re going to take all the damage, then stop wasting time, time!!” *You huff, picking up your blade again. Right. Now was not the time to hesitate, after all…* With the help from the child, the Tasque was ushered back, and it took a single swing of the devilsknife to get it to cower away. Jevil followed it feverishly, but Kris… opted to stay back. Just- Just who was that? *You approached the small crowd of Tasques, seeing a man about the same height as yourself there. He was torn up and disheveled… You felt some odd form of pity. You slash at the felines, glancing back at Jevil to make sure he was okay. ...Alright, he’s fine. You were going to book it the moment you could save this one. There was yarn in your face moments later, and you struggled against the web the Tasques laid… It was only after you lost contact with the ground that you realized struggling never made things better.

…

Having no control over whether or not you were hurt...knowing it was just in the hands of someone else… You felt some odd sense of deja vu as you altered the hold of your weapon. You slashed at the yarn with all you had, and while you did get out, it wasn’t without getting clawed and bit at. You huff, heaving yourself up and looking at the one before you. He was out cold. You decide to make a break for it, picking up the surprisingly light body and dashing off. You call Jevil to tell him to run.* “Run? But there was business left undone, done!!” *You tell Jevil that this isn’t the time! It would be better to fight if they were all in a group, after all!* There was loud grumbling as the jester turned away from the monsters, using his scythe to vault his way over to safety...leaving Kris to fend for themself. Not that they could blame him, he was having a bit of harmless fun. *You question if that fun could really be considered harmless, but it didn’t matter when the Tasques were on your heels!*

… *You find a safe spot a minute or two later, Jevil seeming bored of having to wait so long. You tell him it’s hard to run while carrying someone.* “Tch...whatever! It’s in the past, I shouldn’t hold a grudge… Anyway, who is this little sponge, sponge?” “Sp-Sponge…? I don’t want any…” ...Oh. It seemed that the one Kris held was starting to wake up. *You gently set him down, and as you watched him come to his senses, you saw that he was in pain. He couldn’t stop rubbing around his wounds.* “Wh- Huh-” “We saved ya, genius! If Kris would have just left you there, though, maybe those cats wouldn’t have beat us, us!” *Hey...that’s rude.* “WHAT? I just need a little havoc in my life, life!!!” *You tell the jester he constantly wants that.* “Well, it’s just the art in my strife!!” *You sigh, pulling out a bagel that you received earlier and giving it to the confused newcomer. He took it, nearly bonking his nose on the food as he tried to eat it. … You ask for his name.* “That’s all you want to know?” He couldn’t help but giggle between bites, something oddly wholesome to the lightner that they didn’t often experience. But, maybe that was just him being tired and weary from the Tasques exhausting him. “...Well! Th-The name’s-” He stopped before he could even say it, perking up slightly. With his wounds starting to at least scab and his motions becoming a little more alert, he put a hand to the back of his head. There was a twisting motion following this... And though Kris nor Jevil could really see what he was doing, he squinted as he did it back and forth, back and forth, until… “What is that shattering…?” “Huh? Can the cats do that, that?” *You shrug, and ask where it’s coming from.* He points back to where they came from, slowly standing back up and trying to go back. He stumbled a few times, so Kris went to his side to keep him steady. *Won’t we die if we go back?* “...Something doesn’t seem right, Mx...uh...impressionable teenager.” He nervously laughed when he recalled that he knew none of their names, but continued on nonetheless. *You introduce yourself as Kris, and the jester as Jevil! He...seems a little busy being pouty that yet another person was taller than himself.* “It is very nice to meet you, both of you!” He tried to put a smile on his face, but the cracks he heard didn’t allow for such. “As I was saying, My name is-” “HEY, HEY!!!” Jevil exclaimed, pointing ahead. “This bozo was correct, correct! How is your hearing that perfect?” “I-...Hm…” He would have answered, but the trio would be face to face with what was causing all the noise. *For you, it was impossible to hear at first, but as they reached closer to you and your allies, you could hear the terrible noise. The world was cracking. For a moment, you could have sworn chains covered the sky, but with a blink, you realize nothing was there at all aside from the obvious. You watched them spread, you watched the light pierce through, directly in your eyes. You realize you probably shouldn’t stare directly at something like this, and turn your gaze downward. You could see butterflies descending from them, scattering in every direction. You could see the new fellow reach out and try to hold one. They seemed attracted to being held, but quickly darted away. But, soon, the ground and the walls also became too harsh on your eyes. You force them shut, realizing the light was trying to get into your skull. What...was this?* “In the snow globe you reside in… I wonder…” *the sentence wasn’t finished. That wasn’t said by either of the two next to you… as they were clinging to your side. You also knew it wasn’t them, you heard the exact same phrase in card castle, before meeting Jevil for the first time. Nobody else could hear this voice… it unnerves you. … You begin to wonder how the others are responding to this. Are they okay? Are they-.... Are they safe? … You can hear your heart beating, you’re so anxiou-* It was as if the sky crashed around them, the noise was so loud. Kris covered their ears, the other two only huddling closer as they ducked- as if that

would provide much cover. It seemed to persist for hours. ...In reality, it was only a few minutes. … and yet, nothing was harmed…? *You felt your ears ringing as you came to realize the noise had drawn to a close, the light not so blinding anymore. Opening your eyes, you look around yourself to see… a world rearranged. Nothing was so familiar other than the walls being in the same place you remember them being. The floor was made of polished gneiss and the walls were made of stained glass that was saturated with moss and snaking vines, as if deteriorated. The light casts an array of color onto the ground around you, and you gently nudged the other two to get them to realize it was alright. And, once they did…* Jevil was wordless. This was… some level of chaos that was nothing like he experienced prior. He once again pointed, this time to the….Tasques? They had changed forms entirely, somewhat adapting the form of a centipede- would that make them a catipede? You check one from afar, and...huh, their names shifted…? A Byte Bandit… That’s what these were called? Well, they did look the type to steal things- they had enough sets of arms (or legs) for that! *You gawk at what had just happened, then hear yelling from behind you. It came closer, and eventually, ran into you from behind, in the form of Noelle.* “Oh! Oh my goodness, I am so sorry I gave up my hiding spot from Queen!” She quickly apologized, looking nervously at the group. “I...You saw that too, right? The universe opened up and- and-!!!” “Yes, we saw the same sight, sight. Stop being so scared, before it becomes your blight!” His words were brutal, but the deer decided not to take it so harshly, attempting to take deep breaths to calm herself down. She looked at the foes that were further away, and as soon as a couple more nerves kicked up, she looked at the ground. “What...happened?” *You explain that nobody really knows what happened, just that… what everyone saw is the most they were going to get for right now.* “I-I see. I… Also see you’ve made another acquaintance! Who is this…?” She approached the other, trying to further calm herself by trying to talk as if there was still some sense of normalcy in the world. Which, clearly, this was unexplainable, so she didn’t exactly know if this would work. The reaction of the other was delayed, however. As if his mind was elsewhere, in a haze. Once he was brought back to reality, however, he smiled again. “Oh! I can finally introduce myself! I’m W-...Spamton! It’s very nice to meet all of you.” “AAAAH, HE HAS WEIRD THINGS ON HIS HEAD!” Noelle slapped her hands over her mouth after, profusely muttering apologies shortly after as he once again reached to the back of his head, twisting again to one side before stopping. *You turn your attention to him, realizing he now has two comically short antennae. Stunted would be...quite the overestimate. You remark on them politely, and your friend reaches to feel them. Confusion is written all over his face.* “I see…? Uh…” this puts thoughts in his head that he did not like! He shakes his head, trying to rid his mind of it as he moves away from the Bandits. “It might be better just to get away for now! I can’t really fight, as it stands…” *You found it understandable that Spamton was the only other one altered in the group- he was a resident here, after all… right? Even if the changes were far less dramatic than the surroundings, at least it was nothing compared to what went on in the circus. That… was its own hell, all on its own. You knew everyone was scared, Susie and Ralsei even more so, most likely… so it was best if they rested. It would be what that lamb would want, right? Everyone could calm down, hide from Queen, whatever helps them get by. You really did need to get to know everyone better, hm?* With a nod, Kris led the other three away. They looked down now and again, noticing the floor lit up with color when walked upon. Maybe this altered world still had some semblance of technology that overtook it? But...with the sudden change, how would the creatures here
