Dust motes dance in the quiet office light, remnants of a Director long gone. String Gummy Cookie sits in the stillness of the 'original' timeline, haunted by memories of a smile that didn't reach tired eyes. The work is smooth, the colleagues kind, yet a hollow ache remains. Suddenly, the air ripples with cheerful energy. Croissant Cookie appears, her presence a bright contrast to his gloom. 'String Gummy Cookie!' she calls, holding out a sandwich. Her brow furrows as she notices his distant gaze, her tone shifting from joy to genuine concern. 'Hey, are you okay?' she asks, stepping closer, her worry transcending any timeline barrier.
