    Summary

    What lingers first in Pure Vanilla’s memory are two eyes— cyan and blue.

    They were not simply colors, not merely shades to be catalogued among the blossoms that lined the Vanilla hills. They were shadows caught in ice, stars buried in snow. And in the middle of all that frost, a boy who looked too small for the crown that would one day press against his brow, eyes too large for the timid boy who held them.

    Pure Vanilla had not known then that love could strike so young.

    He had thought it the sort of thing that bloomed late, like the orchids that only flowered when the sun coaxed them after patient months of waiting.

    But with Shadow Milk, it was not coaxed— it was immediate.

    Pure Vanilla is six, and he knows he's in love.

    (It never changes)

    Summary

    “You dressed up for me, didn’t you?”

    The prince flushed instantly— cheeks warm, ears turning red beneath the fall of gold in his hair.

    “I—I did not,” he managed, far too quickly.

    The stranger froze. And then— he howled.

    A laugh tore from his chest, loud and wild. Not the sly little chuckle he usually exhaled, but something full-bodied and absolutely delighted.

    “You— you actually did!” he gasped, clutching his stomach as if the absurdity physically hurt him. “Oh, witches, I was only teasing! I didn’t think—oh, you dumb, dumb prince!”

    Pure Vanilla, still very much crimson-faced, crossed his arms lightly, trying— and failing —not to let the corner of his mouth twitch.

    “I did not dress up for you,” he repeated, softer this time.

    The thief wiped the corner of his eye, breath hitching between the remains of his laughter. “Oh, please, don’t lie to me now, little prince. I’m already touched.” He sat up straighter, juggling his half-eaten apple as if he was a jester in mid act. “You waltzed into the woods looking almost like a bride, I mean! Witches! You’ve got enough metal on you to ransom a kingdom!"

    Summary

    From his very creation, Shadow Milk Cookie has lived with a lock sitting just below his neck and just above his chest.

    He has never removed it.

     

    _______

    Or, I saw the lock on the Fount of Knowledge and ran with it.

    Summary

    The room is too bright.

    It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.

    It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.

    With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.
