Eternal Sugar Cookie

Appearance

Eternal Sugar Cookie is a slender Cookie with a gracile stature and baby pink dough. She has a pair of downturned, bubblegum-pink eyes with white slit pupils and long, droopy mulberry eyelashes that curl ever so slightly upwards at the ends. She has snow white eyeshadow resembling a swan's wings and a singular, thin eyebrow much above her right eye. She has a silver headpiece with her bright Soul Jam resting in the center, the sides of it curving upwards and morphing into two symmetrical shapes resembling miniature, stylized wings. A halo floats above her head, white and shining with a light pink outline. She also has a pair of wide wings resembling an angel. Eternal Sugar Cookie's hair is mostly thick, long, flowing locks that end in curled tips that point inwards. She has two thinner bangs resting at the lower sides of her face that curl inwards. Two small, diamond-shaped tufts hang from them. Her hair is colored a light pink that gradually turns into a deeper pink at the top, small cream diamonds serving as highlights on the bottom, middle, and top. Eternal Sugar Cookie's outfit is rather simplistic - consisting of only a plain, V-neck white dress with some ruffles at the bottom. She wields a silver lyre with close to no details on it, either, which gives her clothes quite the commoner look despite her ethereal features. She also has a smaller pair of impish, sharp wings in front of her other ones, drooping downwards and colored a light gradient violet with a light blue heart in the middle of each. To accompany her hidden devilish features, she has a short magenta tail with a spade at the end, finishing her fiendish attributes.

Personality

Eternal Sugar Cookie was formerly known as the beloved Sugar of Happiness. She was baked by the Witches and was given the divine Virtue of Happiness. Her purpose once was to spread happiness and joy to help the Cookies around her who needed her help from their struggles. However, despite her initially benevolent nature, she began to notice how gifting a Cookie joy would inevitably end in them crumbling. She realized how trivial the mortal Cookies' wishes were, starting to think of them as 'frail' and 'fragile'. She then devised the "perfect solution" to make all Cookies happy and created the perfect paradise where Happiness flows eternally—convincing the Cookies to join her paradise to be free of all pain and suffering to enjoy "Eternal Happiness". However, this had caused her to distort her perception of Happiness, now falling from grace and corrupting her vision into one of Sloth. Eternal Sugar Cookie appears as the hospitable owner of her Garden at first glance, welcoming travelers and providing help with enthusiasm that is oddly amiable for a Fallen Hero. Her cunning ways of manipulation can be easily mistaken for genuine goodwill, as seen with her interactions with Hollyberry Cookie and the others. Behind her outwardly friendly behavior and gentle approach, a deeply egoistic goal dwells within her, which equals the other Beasts'—to get her Soul Jam back and regain her power. Similar to one of her beastly allies, she attempts to do so using trickery and gaslighting, pressuring her guests emotionally to ensure they remain in her Garden forever. Despite the unmatched, dreamlike beauty and safety of Eternal Sugar Cookie's haven, there lies a hidden layer of nightmarish misery within it. As seen with Pavlova Cookie (who is implied to be wanting to leave the Garden) and other in-game cues, such as Eternal Sugar Cookie's brief backstory featured in, the Bringer of Happiness' 'eternal paradise' is, in fact, nothing but a trap to keep Cookies 'forever happy'.It is unsaid whether or not she actually believes in this, as it can not be said whether she is completely using manipulation or actually has a twisted belief system in that she is helping others.It can be said that she actually wants to make others 'happy', although in a twisted perception of it.It could be interpreted that she actually feels a twisted sense of sympathy towards Hollyberry Cookie, wanting to free her of the burdens of responsibility although in a rather negative way. When Eternal Sugar Cookie was speaking to Hollyberry Cookie in private, her beastly nature was unveiled. Eternal Sugar Cookie reveals her name and her true intentions, although thinly sugarcoated, still. By using the aforementioned methods of deception, she attempts (and succeeds) to make Hollyberry Cookie reflect on her past actions and potentially give into Sloth by looking into her heart. Here, she turns into a more unsettling and persuasive version of herself than her previous façade we see during the entirety of the Garden of Sweet Delights episode of Beast-Yeast.
