WHAT HOW DID YOU FIND THIS PLACE??? Honestly Congratulations, You Really Like Clicking On Stuff Huh?
I Love Her With All Of My Being. My Radience. My Golden Goddess.
Aside from the VERY obvious explanations of an orange/blue-turquoise color motif, being a winged character, and having a connection to birds, I have become VERY akin to Golden Cheese Cookie due to her demeanor and struggles.
I am not the most confident individual in person. By channeling Golden Cheese's personality, I can feel so much more in my element and actually be proud of my creations. All that I have created are as precious to me as any of the treasures and prized possesions I own. The abundance of my creativity knows no bounds.
I too know what it feels like to lose everything. Multiple times throughout my life I feel like I had nothing, which I thought equated to me BEING nothing. Yet my spirit to create never dwindeld. Not one bit. I had NOTHING, but I created EVERYTHING. I found refuge in my own fictional worlds, hosting imaginary conversations with my favorite characters. I was one with my creation. The things I held dear. Every time I left a fandom, it felt like all I knew was ripped away from me, over and over again. Yet every fandom I have been in is a part of me still. I cannot completely separate myself from them, for they were my reality once. But every time my world is decimated, I will never fail to build it back up from nothing once more. I shall rise from the ashes an infinite amount of times, and be born more gleaming each and every happening.
Yes! I have no idea how you managed to stumble upon this, let alone find this little piece of lore about me, but yes! The Radiand Queen herself did in fact write a letter in reply to me!
For the Cookie Run Franchise's 16th Anniversary, the Cookie Run social pages hosted an event titled "CookieLetter", where players from around the world could write a letter to their favorite character from any of the Cookie Run games. I got word of this event while I was in vacation in Singapore (the place where I ironically bought my first set of Braverse cards!), and decided that it would just be nice to pour my heart into a letter to my most beloved Golden Goddess, no matter if I recieved a reply or not. Golden Cheese's confidence and nature of always getting back up no matter how many times she fell have done wonders for me and my own mentality in the short time I have been playing Cookie Run Kingdom leading up to this event.
I gave my letter to a friend that had Twitter/X, and he was able to reply to the appropriate Tweet in order to submit my letter for viewing. (I am forever grateful for you Sigil if you're reading this!!!) I was out of my home country for the rest of the month, so I didn't think much of the event...other than literally reading every other letter that I could understand. And hey, the illustrations on each one were super cute, okay? I am not immune to cute Cookies.
I was VERY drowsy for the entire week I came home from being out of the country. Terribly jet lagged, I would constantly stay up late playing games. One night, I just got off of playing Marvel Rivals with a friend, and decided to check Instagram. The GingerbraveDev account constantly updated its story with replies from different Cookies whenever they were sent out. Lo and behold, that night I was met with an orange screen, with an image and a link, the caption reading "Reply From Golden Cheese Cookie Has Arrived!"
I am still speechless about this. Very speechless. There were so many other people who wrote to Golden Cheese, each letter personalized and decorated with so much care. What divine power chose mine? I didn't feel worthy. But something within me to this day tells me I needed to hear that. Those words from her, to embrace my truest self and march forward with my heart, although heavy, but pure as gold...something tells me I needed that. That was the final step I needed to finally feel free again. To finally feel like myself again.
I still carry those words very close to my heart. I try to live each day to the fullest, and chase my wildest dreams with gleaming ambition. To all people, no matter if you are a fan of Golden Cheese or not, I hope these words will help you grow your own set of wings. And I hope that you show yourself-every perfect, imperfect part of yourself-to the sun. May the radiance of the Golden Goddess wash over all.
