Wanted to talk about this, but I had a very odd dream about Pirate Cookie finally being playable... But when I went to check TikTok, ShadowPirate was suddenly popular, animation and crackposts and all, and there were people making memes about me saying, "Everyone say thank you to the artist who foreshadowed these two btw" while the Parade track from Paprika was playing with all my art compiled together.
Like seriously, I swore at some point in the dream, I got spoiled of what happens in the update with a cutscene where Pirate Cookie was literally riding a black-and-blue boat and sailing through the timeline like ocean waves while glimpsing at everything else while he and the damn clown were talking.
Hey Ashur, would they play sea shanties at the wedding? /silly /hj
Hello, anon!!!
If Pirate Cookie and Blueberry Cobbler Cookie go through with their wedding, it's a 100% chance they have sea shanties in their wedding. Ya can't have a pirate wedding without sea shanties, some yo-ho-ho, and bottles of rum!
And if no one dances to the sea shanties, Pirate Cookie will do the unthinkable and summon God-Mode Smilk to destroy them. /silly /j
Placing this sh-tpost here for the giggles since I technically drew the baby Shadow Milk again (and I am gonna be using this for a cutoff prevention when I upload my new video). Tomodachi Life run but the sequel! :'D
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh- So I mightâve gotten a small AU Idea from your TIV Post⌠THIS WAS UNINTENTIONAL AND THE IDEA ISNâT A COPY, I PROMISE. Even then⌠My brain sorta sucks so I kinda assumed it was your TIV post that gave me the Idea.
Itâs just a Simple Idea that kinda revolves around the TBD and Shadow Milk (Which⌠the Canon Updates were already doing that) and KINDA a Redemption AU (I donât consider that Idea to be taken from your Blueberry Cobbler AU because itâs kinda Vague⌠:P)
IâM JUST TELLING YOU THIS BECAUSE I DONâT WANT TO COPY YOU- Also bc I like yapping⌠ALSO also Iâm being anonymous bc I donât want to accidentally advertise if I do make the AU
I find that to be super awesome, anon!!! So cool you kinda had the idea from the TVI cast! /srs /pos I highly had doubt people would pay any attention to the characters since, well, my OCs aren't as popular like I wished they would.
So far, a lot of asks I got of my Blueberry Cobbler Cookie AU were mainly centered around Wilted Vanilla Cookie. Still waiting on a couple more in regards to Blueberry Cobbler Cookie and Pirate Cookie. :'D
Great that youâre turning Sea Beasts into an original setting! Though how different will it be from their AU inspiration? Also curious if there would still be any art of the AU version once the OG starts being developed.
A 20/10 a lot different, if we're going on a scale of 1 to 10. I may end up making a small webcomic or a novel, since I want to lean more into writing stories on the side while I'm doing animation. I'll have to write some stories / make a webcomic / make a few fan-zines before I go through with it, of course!
I kinda wanna have the world lean more into dark fantasy with a small dash of cyberpunk, given how Powerwolf, the band the AU is based on, focuses a lot on dark fantasy.
This is me being transparent: The direction of my world has, admittedly, gotten to where I want it to be its own thing at this point! I want to be able to use this world I crafted into something that resonates with people, especially in harsh times with what's happening in the world right now. Not my best wording, but you get what I mean.
The designs of the main Sea Beasts are gonna end up much different. They'll have the old elements, but they'll ultimately be much different compared to how they originally looked.
I have something planned for Saint Whiskey, given I want his design to be more following the angelic design.
I also want Rye Flour to be her own character, something that people can enjoy and admire. She means so much to me (especially as a trans person), so I don't want her character to go to waste.
I felt bad for not doing more for Salty Shark and Icy Tundra, so hopefully them being in OC format makes up for the time lost on not focusing a lot on them. :'c
A lot of stuff I have planned!
That's all I can say, but I do hope this answers your question, anon! Oddly enough, I'll have to decide what I do with the story. Whether it's writing format, comic format, video game format, or even TV show / movie format, we'll have to see!
Gonna post a new video tomorrow, but gonna say that I've been considering making Sea Beasts its own original thing at this point. I feel it would be the best since I want to do more with them and the world they live in. :'D
I think thereâs something wrong with me bc why did I think âDark Enchantress X Wilted Vanillaâ⌠I MEAN ITâS TECHNICALLY STILL PURELILY-
Wouldn't it technically be PureLily regardless?? We have this evil White Lily who basically was manifested after witnessing the Witches' Banquet and got put into the cauldron, and this evil Pure Vanilla Cookie who embraced corruption after relapsing to his desire for crude entertainment and had to find out that he is the reborn version of Shadow Milk Cookie and the OG is frolicking in the meadows with his Ovenbreak bestie.
GODDAMNIT, WILTED VANILLA. F-CKING KISS THE WITCH, ALREADYâ /shot
A rather odd thought, but I definitely imagine that with Pirate Cookie housing a Cookie who is basically a former god of lies and deceit, it'd pretty much alert other navy sailors, especially Captain Caviar Cookie and Captain Ice Cookie, if they were to figure out Blueberry Cobbler Cookie's true identity.
Because Pirate Cookie is already infamous as is, so him protecting another criminal? Add that to the many crimes he's committed for when the book's thrown at him.
