Rebloom is a Cookie Run: Kingdom Fan Webcomic by RozuTheGamingAngel, posted on Reddit
.
Pure Vanilla Cookie, while fighting Dark Enchantress Cookie, uses a spell to seal away her dark magic and turn her back into White Lily Cookie. However, it turns out that removing her dark magic doesn't undo what she saw on the Night of the Witches, and her goals remain unchanged...
This comic contains examples of:
- Adaptational Sympathy: The Cookies of Darkness are portrayed as the heroes of this story, despite their motivations being essentially the same as in canon. Everything they do during the course of this comic is clearly justified, but their canon actions aren't really addressed, so it's unclear whether they're even still "villains" or not.
- Adaptational Villainy: Strawberry Crepe Cookie's canonical Heel–Face Turn never happened in this AU, so they remain firmly on the side of the Cookies of Darkness.
- Bizarre Taste in Food: Licorice Cookie likes tuna fish sandwiches with ketchup. The other Cookies of Darkness are appalled, but he just tells them not to knock it if they haven't tried it.
- Burn the Orphanage: When sneaking into the Vanilla Kingdom to retrieve her lost magic, White Lily Cookie suggests burning down a St. Pastry orphanage later — after getting the orphans out, of course. The St. Pastry Order has been shown in canon to be somewhat nefarious even aside from their Fantastic Racism against cake monsters and cookies like Red Velvet who are part-cake, so this is probably meant to read as a positive orphanage-burning.
- Dance-Off: Poison Mushroom Cookie and Strawberry Cookie don't particularly want to fight, so Poison Mushroom suggests that instead they have a dance-off and the last one standing wins.
- Power-Strain Blackout: White Lily Cookie passes out from mana exhaustion after meeting back up with the Cookies of Darkness; the spells she cast to rescue Pomegranate Cookie were too much for her lowered mana capacity now that her dark magic is gone.
- Something Only They Would Say: White Lily Cookie confirms her identity to Licorice and Poison Mushroom Cookie by telling them that her favorite tea blend is matcha tea — not because she likes the taste (she actually hates it) but because the smell reminds her of her sister. And then immediately Played for Laughs with Pomegranate Cookie; when Licorice Cookie questions her identity, she just smacks him upside the head, which he accepts as proof she's genuine.
- Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Apparently, Pomegranate Cookie goes to GingerBrave's Kingdom once a week to pick up Jellyberry Jam for Dark Enchantress Cookie. Despite her being one of the notorious Cookies of Darkness, they're so used to her visits at this point that they don't have any reaction whatsoever.
- Wimp Fight: When the Cookies of Darkness try to get White Lily Cookie's dark magic back, Strawberry Crepe Cookie and Custard Cookie III's "fight" consists entirely of childish arguing.
