Being labeled as a ‘Beast’ was very accurate when it came to the fallen Virtues in one way or another. Shadow Milk found enjoyment in sowing chaos and deceit to all who would listen, Burning Spice was known for his short fuse and overly destructive nature when he got ‘bored’, Silent Salt had the jam of hundreds on his hands and wasn’t afraid to add to it if he deemed it necessary, Mystic Flour cared not for the ‘frivolous’ wants of cookies and instead found the only true way to reach peace was to return to flour, and Eternal Sugar refused to allow anyone to leave her Garden of Delights for any reason and would use whatever means she deemed necessary to keep her ‘darling cookies’ with her and happy. This isn’t wrong, but it’s truly only the surface of the Beasts, the part they let -and want- others to see. A part of them that, to them, is a way to keep them safe from the hurt. A mask. A coping mechanism. A way to keep others away from the truth they all would rather ignore. Even themselves. Though, sometimes, they just need to take a moment to be themselves and not the beasts others see them as, to not be weighed down by expectations and reputations they never asked for to begin with.
