Pomni copes (or maybe she doesn't) by TheRantingSage

Summary
Pomni doesn't want to be here in any sense of the word. But even outside of the concept of an Exit, there's no way out. No death beyond Abstraction, and she refuses to let herself succumb to such a fate.
So that leaves one option: find a reason to WANT to stay.

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
Pure Vanilla is exhausted by his duties. Shadow Milk is exhausted by his own mind.
On an afternoon together, they escape to the top of the hills for a picnic. Just the two of them.
As the sun hits his dough, Shadow Milk tries to stay grounded in a place that still doesn’t feel entirely real.
Pure Vanilla’s presence is all the grounding he needs.
