"Director!" Croissant Cookie scolded Timekeeper Cookie, "Stop destroying timelines just to send that timeline's Shadow Milk Cookie into the same timeline!"
"Hmm.. Nope! I need my ship to sail!" Timekeeper Cookie exclaimed, unbothered.
"What ship- Just stop messing with the timelines. Please."
"Okay, okay! I'll stop."
"Okay, g-"
"After I send one more Shadow Milk Cookie.."
"DIRECTOR!"
"It's the last one, I swear! Then I'll stop."

Ad-Lib Milk Cookie remembered chilling in the costume room, then she fell out of a portal.
She fell right onto her face, at night, in the grass...
___
The Fount of Knowledge, the Sage of Truth, and Shadow Milk Cookie were laying in the grass, in front of a cliff, stargazing when they heard a familiar warping noise...
"Hm...?" The Sage sat up first before looking behind himself, seeing the blue and red cookie on the ground, who sort of looks like a mantis, "Oh my!"
The Fount and the Jester sat up before looking behind themselves, seeing said cookie on the ground.
"Oh lookie over there! Another one!" Shadow Milk teased before floating up off of the ground. They then started to float over to the cookie.
"My Bat, please don't tease that poor cookie..." The Fount of Knowledge said, worried, as he got up off of the ground, the Sage of Truth following in suit before skipping over.
"Oh, I must see this!" The Sage exclaimed, smiling happily.
"My Butterfly, no..." The Fount got up as well, worried about how his partners will react...
Ad-Lib Milk sat up on her knees, rubbing her head while groaning.
"Ugh... What..."
"Helloooo~!!" Shamimi exclaimed, looking down at the confused cookie.
"What the-" Ad-Lib Milk grabbed her sword, which is clearly a prop, before pointing it at them, "Who are you and where am I!?"
"Oh, that prop is so cute!" Sage said, poking the prop as they speak, "Where did you get it? Did you make it yourself?"
"Sage, Shadow..! Step away from this poor cookie...!" Fount walked over before gently pushing the two blue cookies out of the way, but making sure not to push them down or harm them. "Can't you see? This cookie is clearly afraid.."
Shadow Milk pouted, floating up and resting their chin on Sage's head, "Ughhh... You're sooo bor-ing-ggg, Fountyyy!"
"I still didn't get to know where the prop is from..." The Butterfly pouting, her eyes still on the ever so cute prop...
The Fount sighs but ignores the two. He walks over before easily picking up Ad-Lib. "I'm so sorry about my partners... They don't have any social awareness..."
"Wha- Hey! Put me down! You- You.." Ad-Lib doesn't even know what she was going to say. She was just in so much shock...
"I'm sorry, Ms... But you could be hurt.. I don't want you to injure yourself..."
___
Ad-Lib Milk Cookie has been forced to sit on a bed for what feels like hours, the Fount of Knowledge refusing to leave her out of his sight, the Sage of Truth bringing food, drinks, and anything needed.
And Shadow Milk Cookie was being themselves.
Ad-Lib Milk was honestly getting annoyed. Shadow Milk was borderline making fun of the Mantis' sword and crown. Sage taking her sword and crown away to use and put on while asking where she got it. And Fount basically sheds like a dog, and his hair is too long and big.
But, why does she feel warm...??
"You HAVE to tell me where you got your robes! They're so pretty!" The Sage of Truth kept asking, sitting on Ad-Lib's lap as they play with her crown.
"Why'd you cut your hair, Addie-Waddie~?" Shadow Milk Cookie teased into her ear, playing with the fluffy collar of her robes.
"Dear, are you cold...? You're shaking..." The Fount of Knowledge rubbed Ad-Lib's hand, the worry apparent in his voice.
Actually... Maybe this isn't so bad...
