Sooo... I came up with a new HC that I thought wouldn't exist, but I mustered courage to tell you abt my hc and why I think it fits!!
I had a hc for a long time that Licorice Cookie is Silent Salt Cookie's son. (even before he was released) bc of their color and bc it would fit. (bc we all do that, don't we??)
So here are things that I found similar to the characters and why I think it fits :) (I will include the non canon video of SSC bc it also has similarities)
1:They both assosiate with the dead. While Silent Salt rests their souls (in the costume), Licorice rises the dead (I can only imagine them fighting)
SSC: Damn it, Licorice. Stop making them alive and let them rest!!
2: They both have pets/companions. Silent Salt has a horse who is a spirit (based what he said in Cookie Chat) while Licorice has Bat Cat who works for him and they accidentally met when Bat Cat tried to prank people while Nox Black Cookie was feral until Silent Salt calmed them down.
3: Summoning. Licorice summoned Licorice Sea TWICE in the game (proving he's powerful). Silent Salt summoned his whole army to fight by his side and also summoned spirits of dead Overlords to stop White Lily Cookie.
4: They both have tension with cookies. In Ovenbreak relationship chart, Licorice has tension with 7 out of 9 COOKIES!!! (except ofc Dark Enchantress and Poison Mushroom). Silent Salt Cookie hates the Beasts and Dark Enchantress Cookie, but trusts his knights and White Lily (eventually...)
5: Licorice Cookie is good at art ( based on the ice sculpting image). Silent Salt said in the video prehaps he could make his own art. ( ART BUDDIES :D )
6: They both have sweet tooth (implied with Silent Salt). Silent Salt got really mad when the Beast Cookies have a cake for themselves and calls the cake "Sweet Delicacy". And you know who else has sweet tooth??
He bought THREE CAKES and asks for alot of toppings on his cake!! You cannot tell me this guy doesn't have sweet tooth (also loves alot of food)
7: Getting irritated easily
Silent Salt got mad at the video of Mystic Flour meditating and almost quit bc of this. Also got mad at White Lily Cookie when she wanted to reason with him. Licorice is a HUGE BALL OF EXPLOSION if you call him "Old Rags Cookie" and when the plan doesn't go his way.
8: Both have smth to do with skeletons (at least on Licorice Cookie's side)
9: Both are lonely (implied on SSC part) Silent Salt Cookie slayed everyone of his knights and loading screen says that silence was the only thing that welcomed him... While Licorice is SUPER lonely. I mean yeah, he has his servants and Poison Mushroom, out of them, Licorice doesn't have any friends. Heck, NOBODY besfriended Licorice Cookie in "Last Cookie Standing". He besfriended A ROCK!! He's that lonely and nobody wants to be his friend (my poor baby :( ) And they even voted Licorice out...
I wanna give him a hug so bad...
So yeah, that was the similarities between Lico and Salt. Hope you enjoyed the ramblings. If you have any thought abt this, you can ask me in the asks (I'm not that scary, guys).
Also planning with this Mpreg Silent Salt fic....
