A prompt for you: wing au, Sam and Tucker figure out how to calm down a frazzled Danny who hasn't slept in days: apparently, scratching the insides of his wings feels *really* soothing.
u come into my house and give me excellent prompts smh smh
At one point, Danny was afraid he’d never get his wings. Most people have theirs at least start to grow in long before they make it to high school, and his obvious lack of so much as a single feather was just yet another thing to paint a target on his wingless back. His dad’s wings apparently grew in late, too, but not this late.
His dad also didn’t step into an interdimensional portal as it opened when he was fourteen.
So. Danny had been, rightfully if you ask him, kinda worried.
Now he almost wishes the things had never grown in.
“They won’t stop itching,” he gripes, squeezing the pillow he’s been half tearing apart in an effort to not scratch his brand new wings off. “And even if I do manage to fall asleep, I just end up waking up twenty minutes later with a feather up my nose or half my stuff knocked across the room!”
Tucker gives a sympathetic pat to his knee, glancing up from where he’s fiddling with some new tech on the bed next to him. “You’ll get used to it, man. Just, you know, maybe move your stuff further away from your bed?”
Danny shoots him a half-hearted glare, but doesn’t have a good response to that. Tucker has a point, it’s just… ugh, when is he supposed to have time to reorganize his room when he barely has time to try to sleep? He’d have to move things and find new hiding spots for things and maybe actually have to… find… find what? Where was that train of thought going again?
He looks up, blinking blearily at the purple and cream blur that’s suddenly way too close to his face. He starts with a yelp when the blur resolves into Sam’s face, one eyebrow pointedly raised as she leans over Tucker’s shoulder. “Dude, seriously, are you gonna be okay? Do we need to call in backup for tonight?”
Danny leans back with a sigh, blinking hard a few times but waving her off. “Yeah, yeah I’m fine. I’m just tired, you know?” He misses the two exchanging a look, too busy half-grumbling to himself and glaring a hole in the floor. “I don’t know how you guys have been dealing with this. It’s like- no matter what I do, they’re just… there. In the way. All the time!”
Sam huffs a sigh and comes around to the front of the bed, crossing her arms and giving him a look. “Alright. Scooch over.” He blinks up at her, more than a little confused, but does shuffle over when she starts making a shoo motion at him. Tucker grumbles a little as he’s forced to move over, too, but eventually there’s enough space for Sam to sit on Danny’s other side.
“Now, lay down.”
Sam looks at him expectantly. He stares back, trying really hard not to sound as incredulous as he feels when he answers. “Uh. I mean. Big wings? In the way? Kinda the whole thing I was complaining about?” Welp. He did not succeed at all.
Sam just rolls her eyes. “Yeah, yeah.” She nudges his shoulder with one of her own sandy wings, waving toward the cushion. “Just trust me, okay?”
He glances at Tucker and gets a super helpful shrug from him, so figures he should probably just go with whatever at this point. With a sigh, he shuffles again until he can lie down between Sam and Tucker. He makes a valiant effort not to take out anyone’s eye with his wings, and decides to take it as a win when the only casualty is Tucker’s glasses getting knocked a bit sideways. Even if it does earn him a glare.
He is now also profoundly uncomfortable, with his mostly new joints squished under his back and a bunch of his feathers bent the wrong way. He seriously should’ve listened to Jazz when she warned him not to get too used to sleeping on his back. Oh well. “Soooo. Now what?”
“Soooo, now we’re gonna help you get to sleep.”
“We?” Tucker pointedly straightens his glasses and gives Sam a look.
Sam is not impressed. “Yes. We.”
Danny strongly debates both if he has the energy to laugh and also if it would be worth it. Instead, he just about jumps out of his skin at the feeling of a hand brushing through his feathers. “Uhhh, Sam. What are you doing?”
“This is gonna feel weird at first, and I’ll stop if you want, but let me try-”
He stares up at her, trying really hard not to jump when she leans over him, and only relaxing when he realizes that she’s just straightening the messed up feathers. He grumbles a little, something about doing that himself, but. It is decidedly easier than using intangibility to reach through himself to reach the really stubborn ones. He doesn’t really get why she was being so pushy about it, or how this is supposed to help him sleep, even if it is kind of nice, but-
Oh. Okay. She starts scratching at the inside of his secondary feathers, finally, finally scratching that itch that never leaves now, and he thinks a part of him actually fully melts. It’s not the same as his frantic, frustrated scraping- she’s gentle about it, careful, and it reminds him of how nice it feels to have someone running their fingers through his hair, scratching at his scalp…
Not that he will ever admit that out loud to anyone, at all, ever.
Except after about five seconds of this his core starts to purr, the absolute traitor. He hears Tucker snort and half heartedly bats a hand in his general direction. He misses entirely, but it’s the principle of it.
He doesn’t know when he shut his eyes, but he also doesn’t care enough to open them again.
He’s also pretty sure that Sam has gotta be giving him an unbearably smug look right now, so. There’s that too.
“Alright, dude. I got you.” Tucker sounds like he’s trying not to laugh, and Danny shoots him a quick one eyed glare. Not much of one, considering he feels like he’s turning into half-ghost putty, but still. He lets himself relax again, dimly registering the sound of something being put down. Danny’s proud to say he only jumps a little this time, when Tucker moves to start combing through his other wing.
He definitely hears Sam laugh a little too when his purr gets louder, but he… can be mad about that later. Or never. Probably never. His head is heavy, he isn’t drowning in itchy pins and needles, and he’s… maybe not feeling as uncomfortable with his wings. Maybe. For now.
“See? Told you this’d work.”
He mumbles something incoherent, something that’s supposed to be a brilliant argument about how Sam didn’t actually explain anything at all, but. But. He thinks that maybe, just maybe, he actually could fall asleep like this.
He also has the distant thought that the only way Sam could’ve known this would work was if it also worked on her, but he also figures voicing that might get him double-murdered, so he keeps it to himself. And lets himself relax, surrounded by reminders that even if he’s got two incredibly annoying new limbs to deal with, he’s also got two incredible partners to help him make the best of things.

The Voices, the new Heroes of Earthbread
Decades after the defeat of Dark Enchantress Cookie, a new menace appeared: Shadow Witch Cookie.
The Ancient Heroes, GingerBrave & Friends, and other cookies tried to stop her, but their attacks only made her stronger in their first fight against her... All, but ten Cookies, graced with Soul Jelly, sources of Light and Dark magic, balancing each other, also called The Voices.
The ten Cookies, split into two teams, work together to find a way to stop Shadow Witch Cookie and her minions.
Team 1:
Choco Duo Cookie
Son of Pure Vanilla and Dark Cacao, half-brother of Dark Choco and full brother of Trichoco, Choco Duo, also known as Chocoduo, Double Cacao Chocolate (full name), or "The prince of Secrets", is a young man who has a memory as good as Tarte Tatin Cookie.
As a child, he lost his arms and legs to save a dragon egg. As a thank you, the egg's mother replaces his lost limbs with new ones made of Cake Dragon's dough with the help of Red Velvet Cookie. The dough, at first shaped like Cookie limbs, became more and more like dragon's, and the boy became, well, half Dragon.
Today, he is one of the pretenders of the title of Dragon King (despite himself), and created the Two Moons Crescent Court with his lover Sunflower Cookie. He's always followed by North-Weast and South-Weast, two of the four little dragons following him and his sister around (who look a lot like the Twins Dragons ...)
His Soul Jelly is an orange crescent moon, the Voice of Memory, placed on his chest.
Trio Choco Cookie
Daughter of Pure Vanilla and Dark Cacao, half-sister of Dark Choco, and full sister of Choco Duo, Trio Choco, known more as Trichoco, Triple Bittersweet Vanilla Chocolate, or Tritri by her bothers, is a young woman who's a hothead and loves fighting. She is the youngest sibling.
She is a big admirer of Berries Choco Cookie, Dark Choco's late mother, and wishes to be just like her: great and powerful. She loves her friends and family more than anything, but she will find any reason to train with them at any hour of the day and night. Even if she's known as the Voice of Victory, it is not unusual for her to lose her fights against her friends and loved ones.
Today, she is one of Dark Choco's advisors. She's always followed by North-East and South-East, two of the four little dragons following her and her brother around (who look a lot like the Twins Dragons ...). She is best friends with Pepper Jelly Cookie.
Her Soul Jelly is a red spike, the Voice of Victory, placed at the end of her spear.
Sunflower Cookie
Sunflower Cookie, previously known as Yellow Rose Cookie, is the eldest child of the Roses Family and Choco Duo's lover and "mind guard".
When they were a child, they were abandoned by their mother, Burgundy Rose, in the woods where she gave them up to the hungry beasts living there. In their journey to find a new home, they meet Choco Duo, who had run away from the Citadel due to the bully the little prince got from being a new half-dragon. After convincing the boy to go home and with the help of one of Affogato's icecream clones, the two children manage to go back to the Citadel, and seeing how much the freckled cookie helped his son, Pure Vanilla proposes to the child to stay with them.
Sunflower is a protective cookie that will hold grudges on anyone who hurts Choco Duo. One of his catchphrases is "The prince is merciful. I am not."
Their Soul Jelly is a turquoise crescent moon, the Voice of Reason, placed on his staff, on the sunflower's heart.
Blackberry Nightshade Cookie
Blackberry Nightshade, also known as Nightshade, is a citizen of the Hollyberry Kingdom and the youngest member of the team.
Born without arms, she uses the little of magic she has to make some and can sometimes turn them into claws.
She met Choco Duo, Trio Choco and Sunflower when the two royal siblings came to visit Hollyberry Cookie. The young girl was dared by her mean cousins to ask the prince to be her friend while handing her claw for a shake in public. The prince happily accepted it, to the surprise of every Hollyberian, including Nightshade, until she saw the two clawed hands around hers.
Today, she is a dancer in the Hollyberry Palace and is in a relationship with Pineberry Cookie.
Her Soul Jelly is a deep blue berry, the Voice of Resolutness, placed on her chest.
Tenili Cookie
Tenili Cookie is a decapitated mummy-like Cookie and the oldest member of the Voices with Seaglass Cookie.
Tenili is a silly daydreamer who loves butterflies, to the point he cut his soul jelly to give it a butterfly shape. He sometimes sent one of his butterflies to give hope to his friends.
Before joining the Team, Tenili "lived" mostly in the Digital Golden Cheese Kingdom, using his stips connecting his body parts to "fly" around (Spiderman-like). He is in a relationship with Seaglass Cookie.
His Soul Jelly is a marron butterfly, previously an oval, the Voice of Hope, placed on his hair.
Team 2:
Frangipane Cookie
Frangipane Cookie is the fourth child of Clotted Cream, Financier, Wildberry and Crunchy Chip. She is the biological daughter of Clotted Cream and Financier. She is the future head of Scone-Custard House and a talented technician and inventor. Her mentors are Espresso, Strawberry Crepe, and Mulled Juice.
She has to use a cane to walk medium to long distances and use her inventions for travel.
Frangipane is a very serious Cookie, to the point she sometimes starts fights with Trio Choco or Alpha Cookie. Although she likes children, they don't usually like her back, including her little siblings at first, which makes her a bit sad. Surprisingly, she is best friends with Seaglass Cookie. She is in a relationship with Jelly Pepper Cookie.
Her Soul Jelly is a peach clover-like, the Voice of Justice, placed on her shoulderplate.
Pineberry Cookie
Pineberry Cookie is the child of Strawberry and Wizard Cookie and the godchild of Gingerbrave and Custard Cream III.
Pineberry was born with only one eye, their Soul Jelly replacing the missing one. They use their magic scarf as a weapon, mostly as a shield, but have a good manipulation of ice magic.
They are a bit shy, but also pretty smart, usually the one the team asks for new plans or advice when Frangipane is unavailable. They are in a relationship with Blackberry Nightshade Cookie.
Their Soul Jelly is a white/ pale colors four branch star, the Voice of Forgiveness, placed where his left eye should have been.
Seaglass Cookie
Seaglass is a Gem Mermaid squid-like Cookie and the oldest member of the Voices with Tenili Cookie.
Little is known about Seaglass, but if you are somewhere with a source of water near, you can expect him to burst out of it and either cause trouble or help the ones in need.
Seaglass is a malicious troublemaker, but he loves children and babysits the Berries Triplets (WildChip's second set of triplets) often. He is best friends with Frangipane and in a relationship with Tenili Cookie.
His Soul Jelly is a black tear shape, the Voice of Vengeance, placed on his belt.
Pomegranate Mochi Cookie
Pomegranate Mochi Cookie, also known as Mochi Cookie, is one of Dark Enchantress Cookie's clones, created by Matcha Cookie.
Created to be a perfect clone of DE, Matcha treated her harshly, believing it would make her more evil, and therefore more powerful, than their original source, despite the love for her daughter. It however backfired, making Mochi powerful but kinder. When Shadow Witch steals DE powers, Matcha and Mochi run away with Red Velvet and the Cake army to warn the Heroes of the danger.
In the Creme Republic, she meets the Gem Mermaid Carnelian Cookie and falls in love with her. The only ones to know her secret are Choco Duo and Seaglass.
Her Soul Jelly is a purple pie, the Voice of Union, placed on her Shamisen.
Pepper Jelly Cookie
Pepper Jelly is the son of Eternal Sugar and Burning Spice and the first cookie who was able to injure Shadow Witch Cookie.
Unlike his parents, Pepper Jelly wants to help cookies, and works hard to prove he is a "good cookie". He is the first to find a way to hit Shadow Witch Cookie.
Pepper Jelly is a loud and brave cookie, who doesn't hesitate to jump into battle. His best friend is Trio Choco Cookie and he is in a relationship with Frangipane Cookie.
His Soul Jelly is a light green kite, the Voice of Trust, placed on his chest.
