Summary
Pure Vanilla is a healer. That’s what he does, that’s who he is. He finds joy in it, more than anything else he does.
Nothing will ever compare to the beams, the looks of relief, the gratitude he gets to see after healing an injured cookie. Nothing will ever compare to being able to help people. Pure Vanilla is endlessly grateful to have been blessed with his light magic.
When it comes to himself, it’s… different. Pure Vanilla has certain reservations.
-------------

Summary
Squished between two apartment complexes, towered over by neighboring stores in the area, existed a humble flower shop named 'Vanilla's Orchids.' Of course, this stop didn't just sell orchids; a variety of flowers bloomed within the shop, meticulously cared for by the shop's owner- one Pure Vanilla.
Day in and day out, Pure Vanilla would be found at the front desk waiting to help a customer in need. Customers have noted that they have never seen the man take a break- only ducking into the back to replace bundles of flowers that had been purchased. And yet, he always seemed to be happy. His smile never wilted, and he would hum as he swept the floors of dirt and debris.
No one knew the man other than the fact that he loved his job.
And then, one day, there was a blue bird on his desk- bundled up in soft blankets and resting under a heated lamp.
-
or, Pure Vanilla is the owner of a flower store, and is accompanied by a dramatic bird demon named Shadow Milk- and he couldn't be happier.

Summary
"Fine?" Truthless Recluse scoffed. "You boiled up shortly after you went out. If you are lucky enough, the fever might've already subsided."
"The… fever?"
Silence lingered, as if the hermit was giving the virtue time to process the information—somehow guessing that it was necessary. Fount's lip was pulled when he was in thought.
Fever. He should've expected as much, but it did not make it any easier to accept. What a foolish condition.
"…Right." Nodding, he closed his eyes in recall. That was right—what he knew is that he was with the witches, returned, and then the strangeness overtook him. But now that he awoke (as unusual as it was to sleep) he knew he was ready for the day.
"Thank you," Fount started. "For being here, I mean. I think that I can now return to the… usual, you know?"
The hermit sighed. He raised up a scroll to read from, face unimpressed and brow arched. "Dear Knowledge," he quoted. "I am aware the sugarshrooms that are labeled as poisonous are those with red hats and pink icings. However, the one I had found has icings similiar to white. Is it okay to eat said mushroom? How much of it is fine?"

Not necessarily a fix it fic, more of a 'dear lord someone at devsisters please have someone comfort pure vanilla before he explodes that man is STRESSED' fic, which should be a tag in my humble opinion because that is my fave genre of crk fic

Summary
“All stories start with a beginning. One that may be dark, or endlessly alight, or not even one of the sorts—but are always, always born covered in the newness of creation’s promising touch. They’re promised, by the writer’s pen, to pulse with passion, and breath, and warmth, and to float across their script of choice and will and Life as the scene is performed. That is our gift.
This one… this story… begins with the sun.”

Summary
Shadow Milk sighs heavily to himself. Ugh. What to wear… he leafs through his clothing, frowning at it all.
Pure Vanilla is practically vibrating with excitement next to him, lightly bouncing from foot to foot. “Isn't this a lovely day, Bluebird? I'm so incredibly excited!”
His smile is lighting up the room far more than the sunlight through the balcony doors, making Shadow Milk pause to smile. “Yes, the day seems nice and warm.” He agrees, returning to his clothes.
“If you don't have anything, couldn't you just… magic up something?” He suggests, getting more bouncy.
He really wants to go soon, I know. Fine dear. He nods, despite his inability to see, waving his hand a few times to pick out a pair of swim trunks. He frowns at them all, before settling on a longer pair, just above the knee, and adorned with his signature cyan diamonds. He grabs an equally black top, off the shoulders and soft for ease of removal.
“Alright, I'm ready!” He grins, offering his arm for Pure Vanilla, who happily takes it.
“I honestly can't believe I coaxed you into a beach day. I know you'd much rather feel the warmth of the sun from inside, so I appreciate you agreeing to come.” He comments, an extra spring in his step.Series

Summary
There's no sweeter lie than a dream. Your brain takes in memories and snippets of wants and fears and turns into a big ol' mush of nonsensical information you're free to interpret as you wish. Logically, it follows a liar would take interest in making use of this.
Or, Shadow Milk Cookie decides weakening Pure Vanilla Cookie before their next encounter would be an excellent strategic maneuver. What better way than by turning all of his dreams to nightmares by his own hand?

Summary
A final thought came to him.
Eventually... He would slip into his permanent drift.
Not sleep. Not death. Something slower. Quieter. A dream that never ends.
In it, perhaps, he could build the world he never had. A world untouched by betrayal, unburdened by power.
Or maybe… he’d dream of what came after. Where he no longer had to be good or wise or anything at all.
Perhaps he’d see them again there, Eternal Sugar, Mystic Flour, Burning Spice, Silent Salt; shadows of themselves, softer, kinder.
But maybe not.
It didn’t matter.
The dream would be his.
—
Shadow Milk is torn between further corruption and redemption. But comfort is easy to fake. Paradise is easier to build when it’s built on lies. Maybe he’ll make his own.

Summary
He should have known, really, that Shadow Milk Cookie would be as flighty as ever, even after years of living in the Vanilla Kingdom.
It did not matter if he curled alongside the healer in bed, seeking out his warmth in the dead of night and never bringing attention to it in the morning. It did not matter that often he would bring Pure Vanilla Cookie a bowl of jellies, calming that his dough would grow brittle if he did not eat soon. No, it did not matter if Shadow Milk cared for him at all. At the end of the day, it would always be hidden behind barbs of wire, unwilling to bend even to his gentle touch.
That does not change the reality that Shadow Milk Cookie, with all his bravado and bite, liked to run.
Run he did, as Pure Vanilla has not spoken to the beast in two months since their last argument.

or, Shadow Milk left 2 months ago, the kingdom encounters a strange jackalope, and Pure Vanilla thinks there is a connection.

Summary
There is a pattern to Shadow Milk shifting forms.
Pure Vanilla started mapping it to better expect when he'd find a snake in his closet, or a porcupine on his chair.
It always comes back to perception; or Shadow Milks want to not be perceived at all.
While his beast loved his theatrics and ached desperately for his attention, did not he want others to perceive him. His time as the Fount, both a profound breach of personal boundaries and intense isolation, left his dear beast's emotional processing absolutely destroyed.
So he changed his form.

or, Shadow Milk Shapeshifts, and Pure Vanilla loves every form he takes.

Summary
Shadow Milk froze, as if he could somehow avoid the impending interaction if he stayed completely still, which was an entirely foolish notion, and probably came from whatever animal instincts a sheep’s body came with. After all, they were very nervous animals, and Shadow Milk cookie was not a helpless little lamb.
Of course, the healer, being a foolish cookie who cared about insignificant things, smiled warmly down at him. A tanned hand slowly reached out towards Shadow Milk, hovering unobtrusively, just shy of touching the side of his snout. The healer was clicking his tongue now, and making other appeasing sounds, trying to get him to come closer.
OR
Shadow Milk wants to spy on Pure Vanilla, and decides that turning into a sheep is the best way to achieve his goal. Pure Vanilla thinks his new form is utterly adorable.

Summary
Pure Vanilla reached out. Time seemed to slow as his hands moved. But then, Pure Vanilla’s hands stopped, as they always did — And awkwardly hovered over Shadow Milk’s lower arms, the intention clear enough that it couldn’t be ignored.
Shadow Milk just stared down at the hands. He remained silent. They were so close and yet the lack of the touch was more apparent than ever.
Or
Shadow Milk is touch starved. Pure Vanilla reaches for everyone, except him.
