INTROPOST??

HELLO! I'm Xenon! :]

I use THEY/THEM pronouns!

I've been playing cookie run kingdom since the BTS update, but I took a LONG break after the Disney collaboration and came back for the end of Awakened PV. I've been deep into the fandom ever since!

This blog is here mostly just for me to post my doodles and thoughts about my favs, but I'm happy to interact with other fans too!

My favorite cookie is GingerBrave! Some other favorites include Wizard, Strawberry, GingerBright, and Dozer! This isn't all of them of course, but they're who I'll be posting about the most.

------

Let's set some ground rules!

CONTENT:

- Again, most of my content will involve GingerBrave and his friends! I do love the ancients and the beasts, but they are not usually my focus so, you may see less of them.

- I am above the age of 18. HOWEVER. None of my content will be explicitly NSFW. Suggestive stuff? Sure, maybe. But anything beyond that, you'll have to look elsewhere.

- Trailing that thought, anything that IS suggestive will ONLY involve characters that are both consenting adults.

- My content should be looked at through a mostly non-canon lens unless I specify otherwise. Obviously it has its foundations in canon but, I tend to take stories and characters and run away with them HAHA

INTERACTION:

- My asks are always open! Art requests, questions about my vision of the characters, talks about your own visions for them, showing off OCs, or just general lore talk are all greatly appreciated!!

- I will not engage with any NSFW interactions. Nor will I engage with shipping discourse. I do not care for it.

- This is a silly cookie run blog! Any interaction that is off topic will typically be ignored!

- I will very rarely accept or reply to direct messages. If you're a mutual, or have an art question/request, I might be a little more inclined :] This is for safety and privacy reasons. Thank you for your understanding!

- Reblogging my art is greatly appreciated, REPOSTING is NOT. This is the only platform I post my art on, aside from Discord servers I'm in, so if you see it anywhere else, chances are it is NOT me. Just be aware of that!

Now that that's out of the way...

------

SHIPS!

Here are the ships you'll most commonly see on here! I am a multishipper so I enjoy a little bit of everything and see the potential in all (As long as it's not. Proshipping or darkshipping or any of that bull.)

WizardBrave - This one is a big one for me I'm sorry I'm just obsessed with their dynamic HAHAHA

StrawBrave - I ALSO ADORE THIS SHIP. I don't draw it nearly enough but their dynamic is so beloved to me and it holds a lot of canon weight too!

Polytrio/BerryBraveWizard - I also REALLY like this one! I think all three of them should get to hold hands...

StrawBright - Honestly just look at their interactions in Witch's Castle and you'll understand

Some others that I really enjoy!

Beasts x Ancients - Okay gonna be honest here. Not a huge ShadowVanilla shipper. They're fine. Not really my bag though. Same with MysticCacao. I enjoy some good HollySugar and SilentLily though!

Ancients X Ancients - Based. GoldenLily and PureLily are probably my favorites though

WildChip - A CLASSIC crk ship I've been around the block yk yk

SeaMoon - Literally canon

MintCocoa - Also literally canon

Hollytaya - ANOTHER classic

ElderSalt - sniffle. my doomed gays

ElderLily - sniffle. my doomed straights

FireWind - I like their dynamic...its silly..

And many more!

TAGS!

Here are some tags you'll commonly see here and what they mean!

xenonanswers/xenontalks - for when I answer asks and stuff, or I'm just yappin :]

oven trio - This one's kind of a no-brainer. For posts that include GingerBrave, Strawberry, and Wizard!

crk future/crk future au - For posts that involve my aged/future versions of characters!

no hope found au - for my villain trio/dark crk timeline AU

over and over au - for my gingerbrave reincarnation/cycle AU

More may eventually be added!

Thank you so much for reading!!

[haltderpyy]

Devsis please stop FUCKING ragebaiting us I can't take it

what do you mean HE ALREADY TOLD EVERYONE ABOUT THE OVEN?? When did this even happen? Because not ONCE before has he EVER mentioned this, not to mention that the trio in general have apparently already told everyone that they escaped from the witch????

What could have been a really important, dramatic reveal was done off-handedly and offscreen. I WANTED TO SEE THEM HAVE THAT CONVERSATION WHAT THE FUCKKK

Not to mentioned that none of the characters are worried about this? Like everyone's treating it like "oh yeah haha that thing" and GingerBrave isn't even sensitive regarding the topic. Like I'm sorry, isn't the oven the cookie equivalent of HELL?! He should have PTSD! Not to mention that someone should have mentioned this in ep 15 when he got thrown in an oven AGAIN (and he definitely should have been freaking out more when that happened).

These writers suck dude, how do you waste the MAIN CHARACTERS' BACKSTORIES to this degree. Strawberry was the ONLY ONE to be like "That whole thing was actually really scary" and the others should have had that too! But noooooo instead of dwelling on the protagonists' genuinely really interesting backstories, we get shadow milk aurafarming and angst AGAIN. It's pissing me off

[microknifeyuri]

Honestly I think people are more than in the right to be upset over how White Lily's character ended. Like okay sure it was always going to end like that logically (though it was really easy to just... find a loophole),

The issue is that you can't just make a character who's extremely mentally ill and suicidal have an arc where she realized she needs to move on from her faults, needs to forgive herself and allow herself to finally be happy after everything that happened, and then give her an ending where her death was the ONLY possible way she could "attone" for what she's done. You. You guys do understand the issue with that, right. "It's a cookie game" I cannot begin to stress how common it is in media for people to kill off mentally ill characters that were starting to heal as a way to end their stories. And I cannot begin to stress how awful of a message that is. It really is kind of a big deal

[xenonscookiekingdom]

And nothing happens EVER !! :DDDDDD Unless it involves Shadow Milk!!!

Genuinely I'm just kinda disappointed?? If you enjoyed the update, I'm really happy for you! It had a lot of good stuff. But I just wanted. More out of it? Shrugs. My greed sickens me or whatever.

I'm not sure when or if I'll ever return to this fandom. None of these recent updates have done anything for me. But. Maybe someday something will reignite that spark again.

[xenonscookiekingdom]

3 DAY WAITING PERIOD???? AFTER ALL THAT? YOU'RE GONNA MAKE ME WAIT??

[awkwardrains]

Something something let gingerbrave be feral.

[nyxk3y]

Careful Gingerbrave, there's a storm coming.

[spleenthecat]

just a little screenshot redraw. 2009 gingerbrave i love you

[spleenthecat]

what if i just posted this without giving any context as to what it means

[xenonscookiekingdom]

what if gingerbrave said "its bravin time!" and then braved all over the place would that be fucked up or what

[xenonscookiekingdom]

fun fact! this was my 100th post.

[xenonscookiekingdom]

Hi I love ur au and your GingerBrave. May you perhaps provide more hcs or info on them 👀

YES of course! Sorry it took me a bit to get back to you!

My Kingdom AU is very close to canon, as it follows the usual timeline, and features the same characters. Where it diverges most is in the very beginning, before the usual Kingdom timeline even starts.

It's basically an AU where I made a proper backstory for the oven trio. A storyline that takes place in the Witch's House, before they manage to escape out into Earthbread.

And the traumatic events that happen there linger long after they leave. Those who died in the Witch's House haunt the narrative through their thoughts and actions. (ESPECIALLY GingerDozer.)

Oh poor thangs.

-------

Here's some little tidbits for you! I have an entire timeline I'm working out ;]

- They spend two whole years in the Witch's House! They're baked at the age of 10 and escape at the age of 12!

- The Witch's House is filled with animals and undead desserts and a Witch, all of which would LOVE to munch on some sweet, crispy cookies...

- Wizard and Strawberry were made first, in the same batch! This batch being of living cookies. Unlike banquet cookies, they're not made from the same dough.

- Wizard Cookie was originally Ice Cream Cookie, with his main ingredients being ice cream and popping candy.

- Cinnamon Cookie is also a part of the same batch, though he's older.

- The oven trio doesn't know each other right away. Wizard and Cinnamon meet first out of anyone! They help each other out with finding food and avoiding danger. Unfortunately this doesn't last long.

- Wizard Cookie's wand is actually a particularly large splinter of the Witch's wand that exploded. At the time, he was still known as Ice Cream Cookie. In a moment of desperation, he picked it up and casted a spell. It backfires on himself, but it DID manage to scar the Witch. This taste of magic, having CONTROL over such a thing even if it hurt him, is what forms his identity going forward. (Trans allegory wizard cookie??? Perhaps)

- Because they weren't meant to be alive in the first place, none of the ginger siblings have names initially. They give those to each other after they escape the oven and start getting to know each other!

- GingerBrave's candycane was originally his brother GingerDozer's.

- Dozer unknowingly ate part of a cookie once.

- Strawberry and Wizard were baked a month or so before the ginger siblings. That makes GingerBrave the youngest of the three!

- Most of GingerBrave's scars are actually from the Witch's House. He doesn't get as many once they escape because he actually has access to proper wound treatment on Earthbread.

- Sherriff Whiskerton's bullying is partly why Strawberry tries to hide her artificial strawberry scent (imagine)
