A cringe fail gacha kid

I post things here that I feel like I'll be bullied off the internet for if I posted on my main account. Oh and I go by Aka

[akamilikissthewitch]

Hello and welcome, this is where I post things I would probably get severely bullied and told to kys for. Please remember that I am a minor before you interact with my account <3.

Here are some things about me that I would like you to respect, and if you don't like or won't tolerate please leave and DNI:

I don't do politics here often, nor do I do hate so, Trump haters, please leave. Much as he does bad things, he does good things to. He's still human. Please do your own research on these things before believing everything you see on the internet. (yes, this is targeted to my generation(Gen z/Gen alpha). There is more going on than you would ever know.)

I am a very complex person with complex ideals and morals, and because of that, I like very complex things. So just a warning, things around here will get pretty intense! It's gonna be like going down a rabbit hole. (Maybe, idk?

I'm aroace and AUDHD, I don't really care what you refer to me as, She/her, he/him, they/them, it/it's, I'm literally just existing so.

People who can say they hate things and actually truly mean it, I can't be around you and you are not welcome here. I live by love not by hate.

Not sure what else to add, but will probably add more later ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

DID GINGERBRAVE KILL A WITCH YES OR NO

YES HE DID!!!!! I WILL GIVE YOU THE RUN DOWN OF WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED IN 2009 OVENBREAK, THE VERY FIRST ITERATION OF COOKIE RUN!! so we start the story. obviously, gingerbrave is in an oven full of burning cookies. he gets the hell out in this KICKASS collection image

absolute flames. anyways. he gets out and has to run from the witch's army, again, in this KICKASS panel in the story of ovenbreak comic

so. he defeats the army. then, at some point he hears someone calling from help from inside the witch's mouth. so what does he do? HE FUCKING LEAPS IN THERE. TO GET WHOEVER IT IS OUT.

NO HESITATION!! this was called "gut instinct" and let me tell you sound track fucking SLAAAPPPPSS. so hard. so where does he go from there? obviously. THE WITCH'S HEART. yes. he literally dives into the witch's heart in the most fucking badass aura farming way humanly possible with THIS. FRAME.

ABSOLUTE. CINEMA. this was called "broken hearts" and good lord. the soundtrack. goes so. fucking. HARD. in this he gets chased by a thing called "the axe man". you heard that right. and yes. it is horrific and terrifying.

these two collection images really sum it up. so basically. gingerbrave literally goes into the witch's heart AND RUPTURES IT FROM THE INSIDE OUT. and just fucking kills her right there. its never clarified if he even gets out or not but he damn well took that witch down with him. 2009 ovenbreak is the best iteration of gingerbrave in my humble opinion. the aura. the guts. the cold blooded murder.

not to mention this promotion image. he was soooo fucking tuff. and i didn't even mention a third of my favorite things about it. go and watch a video of someone going through all of the collection images and then go read the wiki of all of the minor ovenbreak characters. i didn't even mention gingerbraves dead boyfriend. theres so much to it and i love every bit of it but i think ive yapped enough for now. but to answer your question. yes. gingerbrave killed the witch. and he looked damn cool doing it.

You know I did the math with this information

And bro if I’m correct then gb literally got 32/16-48/16 teaspoons of life powder, well equally to his batch, dude that’s a lot- and I don’t even wanna know how much the ultimate cookie is getting, omg-

To put into retrospect if an average cookie gets 1/16 then gb and his batch got literally 32-48 times more than that and that’s wild

[xenonscookiekingdom]

smiles so wide. this surely does not come with consequences. they're so normal. these incredibly plain, very out of place, banquet cookie looking children are completely normal. trust.

[spleenthecat]

i think it’s clear to everyone that gingerbrave has been through a lot, across all of the different games. but most don’t really think about how deeply this has affected him overtime, and how it has changed his behavior, mental wellbeing, and his relationships with those around him. in this essay, i will be diving into these topics and try to give an educated explanation as to how his trauma has affected his life in terms of mental disorders and illnesses.

…what? you thought this was one of those funny posts where they cut it off at “in this essay i will”? i’m not joking. buckle in. consider this my application to join the cool kids who like gingerbrave club, okay? but first i think i should say that im not a doctor or psychologist. i just like research and funny little goobers. this is a combination of those two things i like. it’s all in good fun, and this is purely within a fictional context. that being said lets get started.

(this post is split into three parts because i did too much so im gonna put a link here with the two reblogs added on. if you don’t want to do that just check the reblogs and they’ll be there.)

[spleenthecat]

i always like to start these kinds of things with a summary of the character’s backstory, personality, and habits. then once that is established, we move to symptoms, possible matches for diagnosis, and then just a simple statement of what they have to end it. so let’s start with the backstory. i’m going to be using a combination of the games for this, so i’m not leaving any stones unturned.

gingerbrave first woke up in the oven, to the sight of everyone around him dying and burning. not a great start, to say the least. while he initially panics, he quickly moves to get out of the oven and successfully escapes. the number of those who escape with him varies vastly, but for the most part he loses a lot of his family members and friends along the way. regardless of who is with him, the danger doesn’t end at the witch’s house, or kitchen. even after escaping, he is constantly thrown into danger and is forced to protect himself and his friends. he’s also on the move all of the time. many times he doesn’t have a place to settle down, or is still actively searching for it. and even when he does, like in kingdom, he’s rarely even there. he’s off doing missions or meetings and is far away in an inn, or a tent. this isn’t helped by the fact he lacks a proper parent figure in his life. the ancients should fulfill this role, but they don’t because they have other issues to take care of, and they don’t seem to realize that the bravegang consists of children. he doesn’t have anyone to look after him, and therefore has to put himself on a pedestal to look after both himself and everyone around him. and this doesn’t even include everything he went through in the spire of deceit, or during the dragon war, or the many things that happened in the witch’s castle. basically, the guy’s been through a lot, and lacks a  steady support system to help him get through it.

gingerbrave is fundamentally a very kind cookie. he always sees the best in everyone, and chooses to have a positive outlook on things as much as he can. even in the worst situations, he continues fighting for his friends no matter what. however, a lot of times this can lead to self-sacrificing behavior where he puts himself in harms way to protect others. while his selflessness is heroic and admirable, i can’t help but raise an eyebrow as to how indifferent he seems to being hurt. while not alerting enough to really cause concern, it’s definitely something to keep in mind. it’s mentioned a few times that he gets nightmares from the various events he’s been through, whether it’s the oven, the witch, or even the dragon war. this can even seemingly manifest into flashbacks, as gingerbrave says in witch’s castle that sometimes when he looks into fireplace for too long he remembers the oven and how scary it was. it can also lead to bouts of depression and anxiety, as he says in ovenbreak that getting better from certain events took a long time, and that he couldn’t enjoy his usual activities during that recovery period. it’s stated multiple times that he’s scared of losing his friends, and he’s willing to put himself last on the priority list if it means they’ll stay with him. he’s constantly put under pressure to make good decisions, and fast. if he even takes a moment to think for himself, it could cost him and his friends lives. this stress only worsens his mental health and makes it even harder to get better. 

[spleenthecat]

jeez. that was a lot. but it’s okay because we’re at the fun part now, which is the diagnosis! 

let’s start with the nightmares, flashbacks, depression, all of that. just by listening off these symptoms, you might know where i’m going with this.

gingerbrave (likely) has post traumatic stress disorder, or ptsd. ptsd is caused by a severely stressful and/or terrifying event that makes it difficult to go about like normally. symptoms can include nightmares, feeling emotionally numb, anxiety, constantly being on guard and it can also cause memory loss or suppression of the event. the last one might not seem like it applies to gingerbrave, but i think it’s important to note that in kingdom, he never so much as mentions the witches at all. even when dark enchantress directly presses him on the issue, he acts confused and shocked even though he’s being told information he supposedly already knows. it leads me to believe he may have completely blocked out the memories as a result of ptsd. he also shows all of the other symptoms listed, which gave me this conclusion.

next, let’s talk about the whole hero complex. he lacks self importance and automatically values those around him above him. he puts himself behind to put others forward, which can result in him hurting himself. but what could that mean in terms of a diagnosis? while this isn’t exactly a disorder, it definitely applies to gingerbrave.

gingerbrave (likely) has a savior complex. a savior complex is when someone feels the need to constantly save others, even when it puts themselves in harms way or if what that other person needs isn’t good. more specifically, gingerbrave (likely) also has pathological altruism, which is a disorder that usually is the cause of a hero complex. his intentions are good, they really, truly are, but the problem is that he stops at nothing to meet those intentions and makes them happen, no matter what. these two diagnosis’s go hand in hand, and are found together a lot of times. these two together perfectly describes gingerbraves situation and outlook on things. 

there’s one more thing i can see here, which is his fear of losing those close to him. he’s incredibly sensitive to his friends leaving him, and gets terrified when they’re at risk of being taken from him. he will do anything to keep them close to him. i think this one is pretty simple.

gingerbrave (likely) has separation anxiety disorder. this is usually common in children in relation to their parent, however since gingerbrave doesn’t have that, it moreso applies to his friends. it can also become more severe after a stressful event, like losing a family member or a drastic change in environment. that certainly sounds familiar. symptoms can include begging the other person to stay, make goodbyes as long and drawn out as possible, and can have anxiety about whether or not the other person is safe and when they’ll return. while gingerbrave doesn’t usually throw fits, he does desperately cling to those close to him out of fear of them leaving, or being hurt. to me, it still checks out.

to conclude my diagnosis. gingerbrave has ptsd, pathological altruism, and separation anxiety. thank you for listening to my ted talk. please consider my offering to the gingerbrave community. you guys are so cool.

Holy shit this is AMAZING I love this so much

[spleenthecat]

EXAAAACTLYYY. YOU SEE THE VISION. THIS GUY CANNOT FUNCTION WITHOUT HIS FRIENDS.

[xenonscookiekingdom]

I agree with all of this and I am here to put my two cents in!!! Just a warning most of it is reiterating points already stated but I REALLY need to yap about this. I'm so ill you guys I've never seen anyone else understand him so well. Okay? Okay.

The hero complex and lack of self-importance is especially one I think about often, with how he always seems to be a pillar of support for those around him, including those who should be supporting HIM (cough cough. adults like Pure Vanilla). He always seems to know what to say, what to do, to lift people up. He gives them hope.

It's like parentification of the eldest sibling except he's an orphan and his sibling(s) are dead. ANYWAY.

I'm gonna add on to the points you all made here and say that a huge part of this is likely due to a lack of properly established identity/sense of self, which brings with it a lack of self-assuredness, exacerbated by the way his peers treat him, and all leading back to his very first experiences in the Witch's House. (IT ALL COMES FULL CIRCLE!!) Let's review.

The attachment issues this kid has are INSANE. They are so egregiously unrecognized by most everyone and yet they are SO present. In Witch's Castle, he specifically states that he is afraid of his friends deciding they don't want to be friends with him anymore.

In Ovenbreak, he withdraws from genuine conflict with his friends when its getting too heated and its clear they can't come to an easy understanding.

He ALWAYS says yes when someone needs help. No matter how big or scary the task is.

He NEEDS to make himself useful. He needs to be strong enough to protect everyone. To take it all on his shoulders.

Sure, maybe he really is just the hero type. He's got a big heart, and he genuinely does care for cookiekind.

It's just strange how he preaches self-love and acts confident with himself yet he does everything he can to make sure the people he cares about still like him and want him around. He'll do anything if its for his friends.

It's almost like he doesn't think he's worthy of their friendship otherwise. Why else would he be so scared of them leaving him?

Maybe because he loses all sense of self when they do. Who is he without his friends?

He's GingerBrave. Sure. He's the bravest cookie in the world. Yeah. That's what everyone says. But I don't think he actually thinks that. First off, his dialogue for his wishes in CRK is "I want to be braver". Pretty small and insignificant piece of evidence but bear with me. Why does that have to be a goal for him if he's already the bravest there is?

Not to mention that he seems to feel the need to PROVE that he's brave when he's really internally losing his shit.

In those moments, he forgets that one of the bravest things one can do is to admit when they're terrified. But he can't show that kind of vulnerability--Not to his friends. Not to other cookies. Because they need him to be brave enough. To be strong enough. It's CLEAR that that's the case, because otherwise why would cookies as strong as PURE VANILLA COOKIE keep coming to him for help and guidance?

The praise, the expectations, the pressure. His peers hold him to high standards, and he makes them even higher for himself because he needs to make SURE everyone else sees that he's meeting theirs. He lets others define him because its all he has. He doesnt study magic like Wizard Cookie. He isn't a shy gamer like Strawberry Cookie. He never truly had a chance to figure out who he is because he was never supposed to be anyone in the first place. He didn't get a childhood, a soft introduction to the world. He was never even meant to be alive.

That first action he took. Breaking out of the oven, defying his fate of being eaten! That's what made others see him for the brave cookie he is. But the truth is, all that was was an act of survival instinct. It wasn't some monumental moment of getting over some fear, it was a child trying not to die in his first moments of living. Yeah. It was brave. But to him it was life or death. And it just so happened to define him from that moment onward.

It was how others saw those actions, saw him, that shaped how he saw himself. He's nothing without his bravery. And his friends are what make him brave.

[spleenthecat]

something i’ve noticed about gingerbrave is that. when he locks in (and i mean SERIOUSLY locks in) his entire vocabulary changes. like look at this

this is what he usually talks like. sometimes other characters (mostly wizard) points out how something he says really stupid and kinda out of pocket things.

like. “o, how lonely i was”. “ne’er saw a heart as dead as this one” o??? ne’er?? he never says anything like that normally!! it’s fascinating. even referring to the spell book as “a great spell book” seems out of character for how he usually speaks. idk i was just thinking about it a bunch.

[lov3-sweet]

Tbh never expected GingerBrave of all cookies to call another a simpleton.

Ok now I hc that anytime a cookie pisses him off like really bad he starts talking like this. Example:

GingerBrave: "I hope thou ne'er have children as thy's mind is contagious with imprudence."

Wizard: "that's too far. Even for me.

Shadow Milk: "WHO IN THE OVEN IS TEACHING YOU THESE WORDS?"

What update did y'all play

BONUS: I drew the Ultimate Cookie if they weren't made to wield such big power. Meet Normal Cookie. Also Gingerbrave is there say hi to her.

[baxs-tblr]

White Lily kinnies/fans or just any crk fans, I know you're (rightfully) upset, but please remember that death is NOT the path to freedom. Your life has value. Live, not for some ultimate goal, or even for someone else, but for yourself. Live and keep trying to be a better version of yourself. I am aware of fiction's impact on reality, but please, please remember that this whole message- intentional or not- is wrong. Living for yourself is true freedom.

Remember to take care of yourself. Leave/take a break from the fandom if you need to.

[akamilikissthewitch]

thank you

I found the clip! Remember when c!Dream sent him that torture mixtape? :)

I could only find a 2 minute version, but 0:56 is when the disk starts playing. The whole scene is really good though

[icebear4president]

The fact that c!Dream wouldn’t come down, but AS SOON AS c!Tommy threatened to kill himself, he suddenly decided to show his face. He NEEDS c!Tommy, the key, the one who brought attachments to the server, to feel powerful. And well, if c!Tommy dies all his work would have been for nothing.

How to Fix Underwriting

1. Slow down at emotionally important moments.

Big emotions need space to land. If a scene feels rushed, pause the plot briefly to show how the moment affects the character.

2. Add reactions, not explanations.

Instead of explaining what a character feels, show it through physical responses, hesitation, or small actions that reveal emotion naturally.

3. Ground every scene in the senses.

If a scene feels thin, add one or two sensory details—sound, texture, smell, or temperature—to make the moment feel lived-in.

4. Let thoughts interrupt action.

A line of internal thought can deepen a scene without slowing it too much. Thoughts show stakes, fear, longing, or conflict beneath the action.

5. Expand consequences, not events.

You don’t need more things to happen—you need to show what matters. Focus on how events change relationships, decisions, or self-perception.

6. Strengthen setting where emotion peaks.

The environment should echo or contrast the emotion of the scene. Setting is not decoration—it’s emotional reinforcement.

7. Add specific details instead of general ones.

Underwriting often relies on vague language. Swap “they argued” for one sharp line of dialogue or a specific breaking point.

8. Let dialogue breathe.

Short dialogue exchanges without pauses can feel flat. Add beats—silence, gestures, interruptions—to give the conversation weight.

9. Show transitions between scenes.

If scenes jump too quickly, readers feel disoriented. A brief transition helps establish time, mood, and emotional continuity.

10. Clarify stakes early in the scene.

If readers don’t know what can be lost, scenes feel empty. Make sure the character wants something specific and fears losing it.

11. Use the “what are they feeling right now?” check.

After each major beat, ask what emotion is dominant in that moment. If it’s missing on the page, the scene is likely underwritten.

12. Expand scenes that feel “too clean.”

If a scene resolves too neatly or quickly, it probably needs more tension. Messy emotions and unresolved feelings add depth.
