Unfortunately I had to do my research for writing a fanfic, which involved me needing to transcribe a large section of the end of Beast Yeast chapter 8 (the breakup arc). I figured I'd share it though for the sake of the people just in case I can save anyone else from going through this pain 🙏
Full disclosure this was written between 12 and 2am. There's a few little bits of obvious personal commentary in there lmao.
Transcript starts from 21:55 of this playthrough (Just after Pure Vanilla Awakens)
PV: Yes, it's all coming back to me. But there is something new... a boundless conviction warming me from within. I recognize this feeling... at times, distant and shimmering, or disheartening, doubtful...
PV: The path that I've walked and will keep on walking... Gladly embracing all sorrows and pains...
PV: Is it... the Truth itself? I've been seeking it for so long, I can barely remember the ideal it was in the beginning. With time, it became ephemeral, shapeless... Brilliant, yet often dark, poisonous.
PV: Still... despite all the hardships, everything I heard and felt, my faith did nor die out. Amidst the fog, there has always been a light, beckoning.
PV: Will I ever reach it? I don't know. But I will never stop walking towards it. And thus...
SM: You... you traitor!!! LIAR!
PV: Ha ha ha. Should there be Deceit, I shall embrace it. Should there be doubt, I shall accept it. Everything and all holds an answer. Wouldn't you agree? Come on, Shadow Milk Cookie. Let us end this.
SM: GRAHHHH! I WILL DESTROY YOU!
PV: (forceful but not angry)? A lie will vanquish a lie!
(scene where all the cookies who were involved are the rumours are like. Why tf did I believe this???)
PV: Are you alright? You seem... exhausted.
SM: Kh... Ha... Ha ha... Ha ha ha ha!
SM: You... you mightve won this battle! But it won't bring your friends back. Heh. Theyve crumbles to dust! Nothing more than helpless souls that'll roam my Spire for eons!
Gingerbrave: PURE VANILLA COOKIE!!!
PV: My friends! I'm happy you're unharmed!
Gingerbrave: We thought we were done for! But Fortune Teller Cookie arrived just in time!
FT (Fortune teller): ......
SC (Strawberry Cookie): But how did you pull it off? I thought that fortune teller and you were the same...
PV: Ha ha, don't you remember? "In this tower; space and time intertwine in a myriad of reflections." Here, the future of the past and present coexist. The cards showed me a glimpse of a possible future. A future that had yet come to pass... Fortunately, I was able to prevent it.
Gingerbrave: Thanks Fortune Teller- Er, Pure... Vanilla Cookie?
FT: ....... I've... changed. Thanks to you, who believed in your own strength rather than fearing a bleak future. If not for you, I would've been wandering the fog of uncertainty within Pure Vanilla Cookie's soul...
(Magical combining noises)
Gingerbrave: Woah... Did you see it?! Fortune Teller Cookie and Pure Vanilla Cookie became one!
PV: Ha ha, we were the same Cookie all along.
SM: Uh, excuse me? I'm so sorry to disturb you... But I'm still THE MAIN CHARACTER here!
PV: Shadow Milk Cookie, wait.
SM: Heh, what's that now? Afraid I'll destroy your friends again?!
PV: You are right. For me, nothing is more important than protecting my friends. But they are much stronger than you think. They helped me find my path again.
SM: Hah, seriously? You're gonna lecture me, now?!
PV: I've been wondering: Instead of taking my Soul Jam by force, you decided to try me and see if I could truly fall. Why?
SM: Oh, can't I have a little fun? Seeing the seeker of Truth tremble, consumed by self-doubt. So scared to be devoured by my Deceit!
PV: You day that, and yet... I saw your records. I saw how happy you were to see my Soul Jam touched by Deceit.
PV: I could feel how lonely you truly are.
SM: PSH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! LONELY?! AHA HA HA, NOW WHO IS THE CLOWN HERE?! OH, I'M TEARING UP...
SM: Look at my Spire! Bask in its splendor! Here, I have anything I want! Fools, so eager to fall to their knees in exchange for one little lie!
SM: You... You must've lost your mind!!!
PV: Still, you continued to test me. Was it solely for enjoyment that you wanted to see me fall...?
SM: I am the MASTER of this world! You dare act like you know ME?!!!
PV: When you and I became one, briefly...
SM: One more word, and I will wipe your pathetic dough off the face of the world!
PV: ...I felt it. A minute droplet of longing, hiding in the dark.
PV: I know it, for I've felt the same.
PV: Yes, Shadow Milk Cookie. No one else but me can truly understand you.
SM (the most pathetic wet rag of a creature ever finally showing himself): ...What?!
PV: We share the same Soul Jam. We can understand each other like no one else can. You don't have to be lonely... I'm right here.
PV: Let me be your... friend.
SM (pathetic little creature): Friend...?
SM: CURSE YOU!!! You know NOTHING! You ARE NOTHING!
SM: I HATE YOU! You and your SOUL JAM! I WILL DESTROY YOU!
[I asumme the boss fight happens in here]
SM: Kh... Haa... Ha.... Pathetic fools...
WC (Wizard Cookie): Pure Vanilla Cookie! NOW!
PV: ...It doesn't have to be like this, Shadow Milk Cookie.
SM: Ha ha ha! How "kind" of you! Mark my words: one day, your "kindness" will become your undoing.
[Tap tap tap - I assume this is running footsteps]
CA (Candy Apple): Shadow Milk Cookie!
BS (Black Sapphire): Quick! We must leave this place!
[WHOOOM! - a portal opening]
SC: No! They are escaping...!
WC: He still has strength left?!
SM: You bet! Cookies, they just won't stop telling lies, amirite?! Don't get too comfortable, we're not done... yet!
SM: He he... He he he! I'll be seeing you soon, little gnats! And you... You will live to regret your words.
SM (very angry kitten): I'll make sure of it!
Gingerbrave: Gah! He's gone!
PV: It's alright. Like Shadow Milk Cookie said, we will meet again.
[Thump! - Implied to be Pure Vanilla tripping / leaning over suddenly / falling to the floor.]
Gingerbrave: Pure Vanilla Cookie! Are you alright?!
PV: I'm... just a bit tired. Don't worry.
[Whooom! - Tower crumbling]
PV: Without its master, the spire will come down! Quick, let's leave this place!
WC: I never expected you to trick everyone, Pure Vanilla Cookie!
Gingerbrave: Yeah! You managed to fool Shadow Milk Cookie himself!
PV: He he... Shadow Milk Cookie is full of suspicions. I had to make him believe he'd already won and thus let his guard down. And... I'm so sorry you had to go through all this!
SC: It's... a-alright... It was... an experience...!
PV: You never stopped believing in me! Without your help, everything would've been lost!
PV: Fear and doubt... almost consumed me whole. I almost became a Cookie of Deceit in that river, like Shadow Milk Cookie wanted.
PV: But against all odds, you kept calling for me. You helped me stay true to my path. You reminded me that the most important thing is to trust in the path, and keep going, no matter how hard the road may be.
Gingerbrave: Well said, Pure Vanilla Cookie! We'll keep fighting for Earthbread with you!
PV: Ha ha ha! Thank you! I'm happy that you are my friends!
SC: But... What's next? Where do we go from here...?
PV: I believe that other Beast Cookies have already confronted other Heroes, just like Shadow Milk Cookie did. Now, all of them will try restore their former strength.
WC: Oh... If only we could find the Beast-binding Ritual... I suppose, it was all Shadow Milk Cookie's plot to lure us here?
PV: Perhaps... But I saw something, back in Shadow Milk Cookie's other-realm. A glimpse of the past...
(In the background, there is art of Shadow Milk clutching desperately / crazily at the bars of the fork prison)
PV: I saw how Shadow Milk was imprisoned... A faint reflection that he, himself, probably never noticed.
Gingerbrave: Hm?! What was it?
PV: I believe that we must head back to Crispia to learn more. Besides, I must see if my friends are unharmed. Our journey took much longer than I expected..
SC: Will White Lily Cookie be alright...?
PV: Of course, she will. The White Lily Cookie I know will always find the answer she seeks.
PV (thoughts): If I could win, you will too. I believe in you... White Lily Cookie.
Gingerbrave: Then... is this it?! Are we going back to Crispia? Back home?! YAY! I can't wait!
To be continued... More gay freaks at 7 folks.
