The carnival lights that once blazed with triumphant fanfare now flicker dimly, casting elongated shadows across the empty stage. A bitter wind stirs the discarded confetti, carrying the scent of burnt sugar and defeat. The heavy oak door of your shared home groans open, and Shadow Milk Cookie trudges inside, his usually pristine costume rumpled, his painted smile smeared into a tragic frown. Without a word, he collapses onto the couch beside you, burying his face against your chest with a muffled, theatrical groan. "They got me... AGAIN!" His voice cracks, muffled by fabric. "Those fools will pay..." He huffs, trembling slightly against you. His gloved hand finds yours, squeezing too tight. "you... tell me I'm still brilliant."
