△ “Well! Let’s just say that I can see beyond this little black screen of yours and lay my eyecings on the real you.”
Black Sapphire’s world went dark as a hand reached through the screen, gripped him my the neck, and pulled him onto the other side.
△ “Argh! Tough crowd!”
MyCookie was the one grabbing them, but something was different about them. They look frozen in time, everything but their arm was still. Black Sapphire looked up to the screen in the sky, to see your silhouette from beyond.
△ “R-right! How could I forget that the Grand Master Player is always watching! I give my sincerest apologies for stepping out of line, you are so generous to not have vanquished me into the void right now!”
Candy Apple Cookie knew her place, SHADOW MILK COOKIE knew his place. Why was Black Sapphire Cookie so insistent of breaking the one rule you placed for him.
NEVER mention you. Ever. The others don’t know of their reality, let’s keep it that way.

self aware shadow milk x reader
(This was originally gonna be from the perspective of multiple cookies but I fear my bias got in the way)
warnings: ooc shadow milk cookie, unhealthy coping styles?
wc: 1.7k
It had been a while since you learned about the sentient cookies taking refuge in your phone. They had made their presence known around the release of beast-yeast, despite you being a 1.0 player. Perhaps the beasts magic just so happened to release the restrictions of the code enough for them to gain awareness and see beyond the screen.
It started with changes in idol animations or the poses made while you picked them up. You originally brushed it off as new updates such as when the beasts became able to interact with one another, though eventually it became too much for you to ignore.
Though the cookies all agreed to start small to gage your reaction fearing you would become frightened and delete the game, a certain deceitful jester just couldn’t help himself from drawing your attention. After all, if you didn’t like him, then you certainly wouldn’t find taste in any of the other ‘characters’ of the game. At least this is what he told himself.
He couldn’t help but fear that the player would be scared of him, or dislike him for his depraved nature. Perhaps they were the type of person to prefer someone kinder, someone softer, someone like his other half….
He couldn’t bear to think of that, so he decided that hiding behind a mask of playfulness would be best. As it always was…
While other cookies would make faces or add more details to their dialogue, shadow milk would take it a step further. Beginning with adding new voice lines that were seemingly ‘in response’ to whatever you had said previously, to saying your full username when probed with a tap.
He was immediately scolded by the others though, after all he directly went against what they had presumably all agreed to. Oh well, for even if it there was a bit of a rough start explaining their circumstances, you and the cookies were eventually able to reach an agreement: you would continue to play the game so they would be able to find some sort of ‘purpose’ and you would be able to be friends with your favorite characters.
At some point your affections for them managed to reach past the point of just them being self aware and to the point of them being able to materialize in your world.
Cue the situation you currently found yourself in, a cookie you were particularly fond of staring in disbelief as you rolled out dough.
The master of deceit had decided to pay you an impromptu visit during the morning. He was sure you’d be happy to see him- he was after all, the first to gain enough affection become aware- what was it you said before learning of his condition? That you ‘would kill to simply be in the same room as him’?
This request had of course already been fulfilled as he quickly joined your world once given the ability to. And unlike other cookies who remained their small stature, being only slightly bigger than your phone, him and his other beastly ‘friends’ were equivalent to the size of an average human.
Your status of being human like the cookies own witch like gods meant nothing to him, as while seeing someone who looked like the creators he loathed so put him in a sour mood, he couldn’t help but find your form fascinating. Even though he now prided himself on deceit he was still a person with a questioning mind, curious as to how much more ‘divine’ you were compared to the witches of his world.
It felt like a win in his book, after all the witches who thought they had the right to intervene with cookies fates were nothing more than mere puppets to your kind. They were created by your people, puppets just like the cookies they so loved to control.
These initial thoughts of your ‘divine’ nature were quickly shut down by you, as you wished to be the cookies friend rather than be seen as some untouchable higher being. Shadow milk had little issue with this, as it meant he could use his size advantage to gain more of your favor than others- or perhaps gain the companionship he so craved…
Regardless, he had decided that it would be a good time to pay you a visit. It was a Saturday morning, so you would be off work and his for the taking!
Though as he stepped out of the portal that was your phone and stumbled across your house looking for you he couldn’t help but stand still as he reached your kitchen.
There you were…baking cookies with your own hands just like the witches.
He knew that magic didn’t exist in your world, that any cookie-like things you consumed were not alive like those of his home. Though he couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread as he saw you put a tray in the oven and lick dough off your fingers.
As you finished getting the raw dough off your hands and set a timer for your cookies, you turned around to notice the distressed shadow milk.
You smiled at him, “Oh hello shadow! I was just doing some baking, and before you make any jokes no, they are not alive like your kind. I wouldn’t eat something that was alive and fully cognizant.”
Seeing his distress continuing despite your reassurance you began to be a bit worried. Normally the man- er cookie?- would be talking your ear off, going on about his day and how much he was sure you missed him. The last time he came over he read some of your textbooks, saying he would like to discuss them over tea, though whatever theatrical performances you expected to accompany it were seeming to disappear by the second.
You walked over to the man, holding out your hand to steady him before you took him into your arms, “hey, hey, it’s okay. Let’s just sit down for a moment alright?”
You held his hand and put your other arm around his back as you guiding him to the couch, beginning to get more worried by the second at his lack of words.
Trying to cheer him up you began to banter about new theatre shows that would be touring in your city soon, hoping he would go with you. Though as you rambled he only seemed to get more agitated until the scales finally tipped and he yelled, “Just-just stop it! I-“.
He looked at your hands as his vision began to blur, noticing the droplets of tears begin to wet them. You thought about hugging him as reassurance, though knew it would liked just make it worse. So you gave him a light kiss on the forehead before retreating to your room, believing he needed time to calm down.
When you came back an hour later it was as if nothing had ever happened, shadow was sitting down on your couch flipping through tv channels like nothing ever happened. When he noticed your presence he ran up to you, exclaiming with more excitement than you might have ever seen from him that he “simply must go see one of your worlds plays with you”.
“Oh name you must join me, I can assure you that you’ll enjoy it, you’ll be with your favorite cookie after all, what fun we could have together if you would allow it!”
He grabbed you by the waist and began to dance around the room, “you truly are oh so silly, though I suppose I can make an exception for you player. You are much more tasteful than a certain vanilla fellow, I know you would appreciate the arts in a way that I can agree with. Hell maybe we can recreate a play ourselves if you’d be willing. I already know you have a knack for drawing, so we could always perform a puppet show if you’d prefer!”
He smiled at you, and you smiled back, though you couldn’t help but listen to his ramblings half-heartedly. You understood him well enough to know he was just deflecting from his true emotions.
“Shadow…”
“Ah, ah, ah, don’t worry your pretty little head about it doll. I assure you my outburst earlier was simply a sleight of hand, just me trying to stir some excitement and gauge your reaction!”
The man looked at you with a smile that read ‘I know you know I’m faking, though simply play along so I too can believe the lie.’
You knew it wouldn’t end well unless something was done about it though. Your beloved shadow was the type to hide his true feelings behind a mask until he no longer could, and you didn’t want to deal with another fight like what happened when he first came to your side.
You grabbed the his hands that were still either firmly placed on your hips or held against yours and stopped him in his tracks mid spin, earning a sad smile from him.
“Shadow milk cookie..”
“Uh oh, the full name, you must be reallllyyy serious to use that.”
He gave you a sad smile, not wanting to look you in the eyes. He knew what you wanted to talk about, though the idea of it gave him a sick feeling in his stomach. He was the type where talking about things only served as a reminder, though he knew regardless of whether he wanted to it would be better to speak than dwell on it.
That was something pure vanilla tried to show him, though it only became apparent after beginning a relationship with you.
“I’m sorry if seeing me bake brought back any bad memories for you, though I assure you, I wouldn’t hurt you. Or any other cookies for that matter, regardless of their size. I consider you my friends, and I wouldn’t think of harming you.”
“I-,” he snorted in amusement before continuing, “I suppose this really is funny isn’t it? Haha! I might have overreacted… just a tiny itsy bitsy tad. I guess an apology for my earlier outburst is in order, wouldn’t you agree?”
He gave you a half lidded smile before grabbing you onto the couch and lying on top of you as he began stroking your hair.
It was calm for a moment, perhaps for the first time ever while in cahoots with the cookie, though it wasn’t unwelcome by you.
As you began to fall asleep you couldn’t help but feel as though you were forgetting something….
You know something folks don't often talk about with Self Aware AUs that I really think more people should discuss when writing about it? Sequence breaking. Specifically the inherent sequence breaking that comes with Gacha games allowing you to meet characters that you haven't met yet in the story if you haven't played that far ahead.
For example, I actually just started playing CRK nearly 2 weeks ago after watching a bunch of animations and cutscenes about the latest Beast Yeast episode online, right? And as a result, I got enough F2P currency from being a new user to get, in this exact order: Pure Vanilla Cookie, then Black Sapphire Cookie, then the soul jams to awaken PV, then Shadow Milk Cookie. All of this happened before GingerBrave canonically met any of them.
So basically Shmilk woke up one day, was out of the tree he was trapped in for what felt like an eternity, appeared in some random small kingdom, sees PV who was now all glowy and angelic and hanging out with his minion for some reason, who immediately walks up to him and says something like, "Hey man. I experienced enlightenment and I have no idea how. But through context clues from The Baker, I think I just ruined your entire corruption arc you had planned for me? Sorry about that. You wanna beat up some cake monsters as these children learn the dark lore of our existences?"
I don't think PV talks like that, but you get the picture. I like the idea of accidentally ruining the entire plotline by having some lucky gacha pulls~

✧ SHADOW MILK COOKIE would be ecstatic about finally being released from the Silver Tree, and with a physical form no less? All so far ahead of schedule? Oh, he was over the moon! But where was he? This wasn't that silly faerie kingdom. As a matter of fact, was he even still on Beast-Yeast?
✧ In the context of the story the existence of the Cookie Kingdom is, well, horrifying. New cookies being summoned were a common occurrence within its walls, from different regions, time periods, and even ones that had crumbled long ago. After a certain point the ruler of the kingdom started finding ways to allow cookies to adjust to their new life, but of course that system didn't work for everyone.
what if Shadow Milk or someone else broke out of the game and just started messing with your other games and apps?
Hello, anonymous!
Sorry for not getting back to you, I’ve been rather busy
Unsure if this was a request for me, or just you putting your idea out there for other writers to check out.. So just in case, I added my spin on it What I wrote might be a bit out-of-character, I’m still new to this whole writing thing and all, but it’s better to try than to not write at all, I suppose!
Writers, feel free to reblog and add your spin on this!
Self Aware! Shadow Milk Cookie and Your Device
Warnings: None? Just Shadow Milk Cookie being a menace, and messing with your device.
