📌 PINNED POST

Welcome to our blog!

This is a collaborative CRK AU with a bunch of awesome, talented people!

AU Summary : Long ago, five cookies had been baked, each possessing a virtue to make the Cookie World a better place. But, like canon went, each virtue corrupted, and the cookies transformed into Beasts. This time, however, their corruptions were different, and their beastly personalities swapped amongst each other. Yet, despite this, their threatening presence stood tall.

Shadow Milk -> Mystic Flour Mystic Flour -> Burning Spice Burning Spice -> Eternal Sugar Eternal Sugar -> Silent Salt Silent Salt -> Shadow Milk

The AU is mainly being told through concepts and world building, and there are no current plans to make it a full-on fanfic and/or comic at the current moment. Of course, this can change at any given point, we’ll be sure to update!

This AU is very much in the works! Some things are still being planned, and some things might get swapped around (heh get it). We'll do our best to make sure everything lore wise is up to date!

Why is the au called seasoning imbalance?

We had a "lore" idea behind the name, but haven't decidet yet if we want to make it canon or not.

But mostly, we just thought the name fit 🤷🏻‍♀️

hiiii !! is there any set designs for the beasts ? if yes, where can i find it ? have a nice day/night !!!!

Hi!

Yes, we do have set designs for the beasts! :3

We don't have proper reference sheets yet, but you can see all the art when you look at our AU hashtag.

But for easy finding, here are some pictures showing the beasts:

Artists in order: @fishymom-art , @ouija , @sami-vai , @aniflowersartblog and sami-vai again

(Shadow Milk is going through a small re-design at the time though, so the design shown here will probably be outdated in the near future)

Happy April 1st! (Even though I'm technically a day late here on tumblr xD)

To celebrate April Fools, I asked the people in @fishymom-art's discord server for nonsensical crack ships. I than put all the suggestions in a bowl, the fates decidet on "Shadow Milk x Avatar of Destiny"! And after a quick 2 person vote (one of which was me xD) it turned into "Seasoning Imbalance! Shadow Milk x Avatar of Destiny" :3

Becouse who better to understand the apathy of lives cruel truth, than a cookie eating eldrich god? 😊😂

silent salt's delusion reminds me of the novel Don Quixote a little bit

SEEING SALT BE COMPARED TO THE OG DELULU KNIGHT DON QUIXOTE (Tho i call him Don Quijote-) WAS NOT ON MY BINGO CARD LMAO

At least he is an actual knight with skills XD but the big ego is still there- so i see whatchu mean!

here’s a silly doodle of salt recreating that one scene where Don Quijote mistakes windmills for giants! Not canon to the AU ofc!

(Fun fact i had to do that scene in a Spanish class in high school)

any progress updates?

Hi! Sorry for keeping you guys waiting! I know that there haven’t been many updates as of late.

We don’t have a specific deadline or a goal in mind. Instead, we brainstorm ideas and designs for now. We don’t want to share something undercooked. Plus, we have our own stuff going on (some of us have pretty big projects we work on and this au is more of a side gig hahaha)

Once again, we apologize for being quiet for such a long while. I promise to bring some good stuff soon 👀

I am confused about the soul jams. I have seen fish draw the beasts with the soul jams of who they swapped with so like, mystic flour got burning spices soul jam and burning spice got eternal sugars soul jam and so on, I also saw him doing mystic flour as... Webber of history? I think which is the counter part for herald of change, but every time I look at someone else's drawing they didn't switch soul jams, so if I may ask which one is more canon? Switched roles completely or switching the new goal?

(sorry I made this long lmao)

The designs with the swapped souljams and the weaver were made when we first ADHD'd up the au, we've since decided to keep the virtues and souljams the same, but they're corruptions have different results then cannon, currently the cannon designs are the milestone drawings and will probably stay like that

It the beasts' roles are swapped, technically would the ancients roles be swapped aswell?

hi there!

for this au, we decided to keep the ancients with their assigned roles. the beasts and ancients are still connected, though, since the original virtues are still the same!

example : burning spice was still the herald of change, his point of view just shifted when he corrupted, instead taking on the power of sloth rather than destruction

we just felt like it'd be easier on our part story-wise to keep the ancients with their designated lights (truth, passion, resolution, etc etc)

If golden cheese got her wings ripped of in canon…

oh god what does dark cacao get ripped of now mystic flour is destruction?????

😼😼😼

all seriousness tho his right arm gets broken ! mystic flour then takes his soul jam, and as a nod to canon, shoves him down the stairs 😁 bro cannot catch a break fr

if you want a lil more info regarding all of that, we explained it just a tad bit more in this ask here!
