listen I know this entire account is about cookies x reader BUT….hear me out on the witch from this new game
Tumblr media
Being her dear assistant as you help her bake the cookies, making sure to catch the ones that escape her grasp, she’s not as swift and agile compared to you.
Her kisses to your cheek or forehead were always a treat to experience when you followed her orders.
So dear to her that you were, she would not let other witches get their hands on you like Loyalty Witch or even that annoying Imagination Witch.
You were HER assistant, not theirs!

please understand that i highly discourage actively killing an animal for your witchcraft. if you find roadkill or bones, purchase parts/bones/blood, or have hunter friends who are willing to let you harvest past the meat/flesh, please feel free (this is what i do.) if you are ok hunting animals for food and using the body for magick as well, go for it. but please dont mindlessly kill/sacrifice animals. its disrespectful towards the animals, the earth and the energies involved.

Spirits within-
Part 1 The Fetch:
The Witch’s Shade and Its Distaste For “shadow work”
Alternate title: The [Un]Holy spirit of the Witch.
This blurb is meant to be lost to the internet as an opinion of one witch. This is not an academic writing documenting the fetch of folklore or of other traditions found in traditional witchcraft systems. Rather, it is a hot take on the mass hysteria and spiritual psychosis masquerading as “shadow work”. There will be discussions of the shade, the fetch, and the witch’s relationship with healing (or lack of) to follow. I am purely sharing my own beliefs from the tradition I’ve built. If anything here resonates please take it and add it to your own praxis. If you disagree then… cool I guess. Keep it to yourself lol.
The fetch has been called many things by different folks. Some titles being largely misused but nonetheless accepted: The witch’s shade, the hag, the shadow self, the inner child, and even the Unholy spirit. A creature within the pit of the stomach and/or the nether regions. In the average person, the shade is curious, animalistic, childlike, and sexual. It carries selfishness, trauma, greed, and lust. This is the part of the soul that sins and day-dreams. Everyone has one. Only, they all behave differently and the witch embraces its dark nature.
This is also the part of the soul that carries trauma. Within many modern occult circles this “inner child” is seen as something in need of healing. Something that needs to be nourished. This belief is valid from a folk healing perspective. The trad witch however, finds power within the shade’s restlessness. Healing it is antithetical to witchcraft. Before you run off saying otherwise, I wanted to stress that I am a huge advocate for therapy and self reflection. But as you may have guessed, My mental health practices do not overlap with my religious practice. Just as the folk healer is valid in the loosening of this spirit’s grip on their life. As is the witch in allowing their darkness to fester.
A term becoming more common within recent years would be “shadow work.” I have a complicated relationship with this term’s use. Again, there is historical necessity of spiritual healing. And many folk practices find importance in it. However, the western occult community has allowed toxic positivity to invade this idea of shadow work. The term is forced on all magical practitioners and psychology is being forced upon modern practices by people who are not licensed to truly deal out psychological advice. Many times have I heard false teachings such as “don’t do magic until you’ve done shadow work” as if it’s a one-and-done-chore. As if it’s linked to a spirit’s ability to help you. I can assure you, my money bowl will bring me money even if I have ignored my daddy issues and various traumas.
Shadow work has become a white E-girl’s fantasy that allows her to flex her DIY therapy and compartmentalization skills. And yes, it’s always white girls. Although, the white-ego and woman-traumas are a different type of blog post…..
Non initiated “witches” have removed the concept of the fetch and replaced it with psychologically obsessed and compulsory beliefs. There is an unhealthy blending of psychoanalysis and spirituality plaguing our world. Sifting through the healthy kinds of healing based practices verses the hysterical is daunting. But as a Witch I see all of it as unnecessary within my practice.
As I stated, everyone has a shade. But to the witch it is corrupt. It is not just curious, but hungry. It does not need to heal but to curse and steal. This spirit is not like the shade of the common folk. It can not be ignored, cleansed, purged, or healed. It is the witching spirit. It is the fetch. It is the hag. It is this self-serving and devilish outlook that has separated our shade from the others. This is not to say shadow work and the ever increasing interest for people to psychoanalyze their spirituality is unnecessary. In fact I’m saying quite the opposite. Despite the obsessive and compulsory need to constantly be healing and “breaking generational curses/trauma”; healing is important for humans of all beliefs. Folk healers have a long history of healing mental and physical ailments with prayers and the aid of spirits. But modern occultists have forgotten, the witch is not a witch if they are not hurt or oppressed. The witch is the opposite of healing and peace. The fetch reflects that. Our soul is stained by the devil. There is no healing it despite what the church tells you.
We all have a shade. But unlike Christians, I will not ignore it. I feed it. I will not shamefully confess the acts it urges me to do as a catholic would. I do not see it’s chaos as something bad. I do not believe that overcoming my trauma and getting therapy will effect my ability to craft spells as new agers do. I also do not think my spirits will refuse to help me just because I didn’t buy that stupid shadow work journal being advertised all over the internet. I am a Witch. A messy, cruddy, muddy, selfish, entitled witch. I am the villain society has told queers to be. I am the bad guy in most social settings. I purposely usurp, overthrow, and evade all social norms and authority figures just to make your skin crawl. I am THE edge lord of all edge lords. I do not seek to heal that wound. It fuels my witch fire.
TLDR: A shade born into oppression is likely to become a whitch’s shade. A living haint if you will. Blurring the lines between therapy and magic is not witchcraft. But it is not invalid either.
Now that I’ve established my beliefs in the shade and it’s transformation into the fetch; allow me to discuss how I view it as a spirit that can be worked with as a sentient daemon.
As an animist I quite simply view this shadow version of myself as being alive inside of me. It is a spirit I can send out to do my bidding and it is the hag I take the form as when I fly. An “astral body” as they call it these days. I will mention that many trad witches do not approach the fetch as a sentient spirit but do acknowledge it’s existence within them. Just as people doing shadow work do not approach this shade or “inner child” as an actual entity. But I prefer to view it much like Christians do the Holy Spirit. To me it functions as the Unholy Spirit which is placed within sinners by the devil. Wether it’s born with us as Catholics say sin is, or is placed within us upon dark baptism/initiation is up to debate. But it definitely is an outside source being blended with my own power. Hence the birth of it from trauma and magic.
My fetch appears in visions and dreams. Sometimes it’s beautiful and appears as a fictional and impossibly beautiful version of myself. It’s a jab at my insecurities. And other times it’s a gross wound of a being. Covered in wrinkles, hair, and sometimes bugs. The fetch is both my ideal dream and my worst nightmare. So, I use it to instill such traits in others. I take this spirit’s form upon myself and hag ride enemies. I steal beauty and wealth via dream visitations. I bestow disease and sour luck to those who have created this fetch (read ‘trauma’). It is the spirit within and without. A spirit that is me that has been made infernal and other. It is the Unholy Spirit made flesh.

Hey, uh, shadow work community, could I get some advice?
I've been doing more shadow work as a part of my journaling for therapy. My goal for starting therapy again was to work on healing the trauma I have never properly addressed.
It's been really good and really healing.
My question though, is how do you remain kind and gentle to yourself during this process?
I feel like I'm sort of in the, "it's me, hi, I'm the problem," phase. And I had a very large and intense reflective realization today.
With this has ushered in a bit of self hatred.
I want this to be useful and productive, and I know it won't be if I don't find a way to be kinder to myself through this.
Do y'all have any thoughts/ideas/etc?

Ok, I understand that the cookies are hot buuuut-
Tumblr media
I would NOT mind baking with her lol
Fun Fact: I had roots in writing x Readers long ago when the CR forums were still around, where you were a housekeeper for the Witch, tending to her home before encountering Gingerbrave. It wouldn’t hurt if I brought that premise to apply to here.
Working for the Shadow Witch until little running cookies entered your life. ;)

The Immediate Tutorial Process of “Cookie Run: Witch’s Castle”
⚙️ This tutorial is fresh off the printer unlike the others I’ve done before this one, so let’s get down to it under the context that you passed the DevPlay login page and downloaded everything. Spoilers are imminent, duh!
Enter Your Name
⚙️ This’ll be your username for the game, so make it a good one… or use the generator to get an idea for one.
Tumblr media
Level 1
⚙️ According to relevant sources, the Witch’s Castle used to house a whole coven of Witches and then some. In the opening sequences, this is where *this* iteration of GingerBrave is baked to wake up- once again- in a fiery hot oven on a scorching hot metal pan. This is where the tutorial begins.
Moves: 999 (it’s practically impossible to fail)
Chosen Cookie: 🍪 GingerBrave
Controls - Making Moves: Tap a jelly that’s part of a group of two or more jellies of matching colors to pop them and interact with various board gimmicks.
🎯 Objectives - Vials: Pop jellies next to these explosive potions to send them into an overarching enemy target. In this case, it’s the Oven Doors. 10-15 vials should clear the level, where GingerBrave gracelessly falls out the window after a scripted tap prompt.
Tumblr media
Level 2
⚙️ Uh oh! GingerBrave’s graceless jump away from the Shadow Witch just landed him in a horde of zombie-like Spoiled Cookies! But this time, someone else is here to bail him out.
Moves: 50
Chosen Cookie: 💫🪄 First Cream Cookie (Currently hidden)
🎯 Objective - Spoiled Cookies: Practically undead Cookie heads. Pop Jellies next to them to clear them. In this level and most likely in future levels, they will appear in waves. For this level, there are 50 spoiled cookies spread across three waves. Clear them all to win!
Power Jellies: These jellies will appear in the tapped square after clearing large groups of jellies in one move. Tap them to activate them as is, or tap one when it’s next to another power jelly for a stronger effect. These jellies mimic similar power-ups in similar blockbusting puzzle games, where they’ll pop jellies, destroy obstacles, and interact with objectives.
Cookie Skills: Each Cookie has one. Tap the Cookie when the Energy gauge is full to enable it, then tap your target square on the board to activate it. In this tutorial, this feature is unlocked on the 3rd and final wave of spoiled Cookies, where this skill will clear them all.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Episode 1, Chapter 1
⚙️ After GingerBrave escapes, he finds himself in the Witch’s Castle where he finds a witch-lookalike Cookie who taunts him in his efforts to escape out the window in… an attitude that almost matches mine?! NO WAY! Better clear the way for this guy, since he just had a bad collision! Start with these two obstacles, which require two Golden Star Jellies to clear.
Resources - Golden Star Jellies: You’ll get another Star after clearing level 2. That’s right. *Another.* You got one for level 1 too. Use them to progress the story and unlock new features. In this case, you’re clearing obstacles… but not for long. Better get back to the board for more Stars! Some levels will award multiple stars… like level 3.
Tumblr media
Level 3
⚙️ Back to work, you know the drill. We need FOUR Golden Star Jellies to clear the immediate area this time.
Moves: 40
Skills: Disabled
Chosen Cookie: 🍪 GingerBrave
🎯 Objective - Wafers: These squares crumble once you pop jellies next to them. They are not affected by gravity if anything below them are cleared out from under them. In this level, there are 36 wafers in a 6x6 square. Clear all of them to win!
Bonus - Coin Bonuses & Level Completion: After clearing the level, power jellies are added to the board based on how many moves you have left. Afterwards, they all get detonated at once to pop jellies on the board to score some bonus coins on top of your base prize, tentatively being 160 Coins extra at most. More moves, more Coins! Each remaining move scores 10 Coins.
Rewards: 1+3 Golden Star Jellies, 50+160 Coins
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Level 4
⚙️ Missing stairs? Get another Star. This level loosens the scripted restraints and lets you play the level as you want. Just clear the Wafers and move on already!
Moves: 38
🎯 Wafers: 49
Skills: Disabled
Chosen Cookie: 🍪 GingerBrave
Rewards: 1 Golden Star Jelly, 50+160 Coins
Tumblr media
⚙️ That should be the last of it. From here, you’ll unlock the second floor and get a free progression reward of 20 Crystals. The rest of the user interface will also open up to you and the tutorial wheels essentially detach from here. There are some other tutorials and stuff that’ll open up as you click on them, but you can explore those whenever your brain catches up with everything. Happy Puzzling!
