Ask Mochaccino Cookie!

Ah, dear readers! It seems we have reached a unique chapter in our tale. I'm Mochaccino Cookie, and today, I invite you to participate in a special interaction.

I am breaking the fourth wall to hear your questions and provide you with answers in a delightful QnA session.

Take as many liberties as you'd like to formulate any question that you may want an answer to.

As more questions flow in, this special chapter will be updated with a reader's question and my respective answer!

That being said, I wish you well, and as of today, 6th of July, the next chapter regarding my added interactions to the Cookie Odyseey storyline, it will be added later today.

Farewell, and I look forward to answering your questions!

And it appears we have our first pair of questions!

(Author's Note: These questions will be cross-platform, so queries from AO3, Wattpad, and WebNovel will be added in this chapter)

Mrgriaffe inquires:

- If your inventions were used for some nefarious purpose against your morals, what would you do?

It would undoubtedly bring me great shame. As the Royal Scientist, I hold a deep sense of responsibility towards the well-being and progress of our kingdom.

However, I am not overly worried about such a situation, because I always have a contingency plan in place. I ensure that my creations have fail-safes and built-in safeguards to prevent misuse.

I have a system that will shut down any invention of my making, an emergency procedure only I have access to. I simply deactivate the invention being used in the wrong hands, and presto, problem solved!

- Where do you think Affogato has gone? His legs can only carry him so far.

I must admit that I do not know his current whereabouts. It seems he has ventured off on his own, and while his legs can only carry him so far physically, I have faith in his inner strength and determination.

Affogato has always shown a strong desire to do whatever it is he puts his mind to achieve. I believe he will find his way and contribute positively wherever he may be.

I wish him well and trust that he will make the choices that align with his principles. The correct ones, hopefully...

AnimeverseCrossovers asks:

- What's your favorite food?

My favorite food... Well, during my time in the Dark Cacao Kingdom, I mostly ate Raisin Jellies due to the restrictions placed upon us.

However, since visiting the Vanilla Kingdom and experiencing new culinary delights, I have developed a fondness for Fluffy Omurice. The combination of fluffy egg and savory rice is simply delightful.

And if I'm feeling particularly fancy or adventurous, I indulge in Jelly Deluxe Pizza, a unique blend of sweet and savory flavors that somehow work together in harmony.

- What are your favorite color(s)?

When it comes to colors, I find myself drawn to purple, black, and brown. These hues not only reflect my personal color palette but also hold symbolic meanings.

Purple represents creativity, spirituality, and ambition. Black signifies mystery, strength, and the depths of knowledge. And brown represents stability, warmth, and the grounded nature of the earth.

I'm my point of view, these colors resonate with me on both a personal and symbolic level.

- What did you do in Parfaedia with Espresso and Latte?

Espresso and Latte were both cherished friends and project partners at the Parfaedia Institute. We worked together on numerous scientific endeavors, sharing ideas and pushing the boundaries of our knowledge.

It was a time of great collaboration and growth, and I valued both Espresso's analytical mind and Latte's creative insights. Their company was always enjoyable. Both Espresso and Latte were not only valued colleagues, but also became wonderful friends.

We shared many moments of laughter, brainstorming, and scientific and magical exploration. Our time in Parfaedia Institute holds many fond memories, and I am grateful for their companionship.

Oh, and speaking of Latte, interestingly enough, years after leaving Parfaedia, Latte did confess her feelings for me. Though it took me by surprise, we both knew we wouldn't work out so well. But our friendship remains strong, and I value her as both a colleague and a friend.

- Do you have any bad habits?

As for bad habits, I must admit that I can become too immersed in my work at times. When I'm focused on a scientific problem or invention, I can become a bit oblivious to my surroundings.

It's not uncommon for me to go on long, scientific rants by accident, much to the amusement, or sometimes bewilderment, of those around me.

It's something I'm aware of and continuously working on to strike a better balance. I apologize if this can be tiresome for those around me, as I sometimes get carried away with my enthusiasm.

- Do you like making jokes or anything funny?

WATT prompted such a question? Did something SPARK your curiosity? I'm quite SHOCKED that you asked. But yes, I think clever word plays are a good way to LIGHTEN the mood.

I SURGE you to try it! I hope you aren't CURRENT-ly upset. Haha, sorry, I just couldn't RESISTOR hold back from making one last pun!

Jokes aside, yes, I do find humor in the clever play of words, especially when it relates to my scientific domain. Laughter is a wonderful way to lessen bad moods and create a positive atmosphere, so I appreciate opportunities to bring a smile to others' faces.

BlackBFRose wants to know:

- Do you have any counters to hypnotism? I'm concerned for your wellbeing if that happens. Do you have anything to prevent it? Please say yes.

Thank you for expressing your concern for my well-being. I assure you that I have taken precautions to protect myself against hypnotism. However, I must apologize in advance, as my explanation may be a bit lengthy.

To counter visual hypnosis, I've recently developed specialized goggles. These goggles serve the purpose of rendering me visually blind by blocking out any external stimuli.

However, they utilize an intricate system of electricity scattering to still allow me to sense my surroundings in a different way. This ensures that I am not susceptible to visual hypnotic techniques.

In addition to the goggles, I have also incorporated auditory scramblers into my defense mechanism. These scramblers disrupt and distort any attempts at auditory hypnosis, rendering them ineffective and reducing them to nonsensical sounds.

Furthermore, if these preventive measures prove insufficient, I have undergone a surgical procedure performed by the Cacao-Bots. They have implanted a microchip in my brain, which is capable of emitting controlled electrical shocks. These shocks are specifically targeted at certain regions of my brain, designed to break the influence of hypnotic suggestions and restore my control.

In the event that all these measures fail to counter hypnotism, I have an additional fail-safe mechanism. My electricity-harnessing suit, which I wear at all times, has an automatic combat mode.

If it detects that I have lost control due to hypnotic manipulation, the suit will activate and fight on my behalf while I am unconscious. It has been programmed to assess the risk and act accordingly. If it determines that the situation is too high-risk or simply not convenient, the suit will prioritize my safety and escape with me.

I hope this explanation alleviates your concerns. And again, rest assured that I have taken every possible precaution in my power to protect myself against hypnotic influences.
