NOTE: Just something I wrote for fun. The two chapters here are two separate stories, but they are somewhat tied together. The first one is written in a form of a screenplay and it's more about Toffee while the second one is just regular fanfic and has a tiny bit more romantic themes (although not by much in retrospect). The reason why I wrote two of these is because the first one is here to provide some context as some people might be confused about Toffee's motivation in the second story. But anyway, enjoy.

[The scene opens with Star and Marco confronting Toffee. It's the end of the line, they thought. The end of the line. Nobody understood why Toffee did the things he did, nobody understood his purpose, until now.]

Star: But... why?

Toffee [smirked]: I suppose you deserve to know. Sigh The Butterfly Dynasty. One of the most powerful races in the entire universe, possessing the link between this mortal world and the dimension of magic.

Star: you mean... my wand?

Toffee: Precisely. And that kind of power is quite frankly... very hard to control. Glossaryck of all people understood that. He WAS created by the universe to teach you people how to use it after all.

Marco: Glossaryck?

Toffee: Order cannot exist without chaos and destruction. It is inevitable, inevitable that you Mewmans will destroy both the universe AND yourselves with that kind of power in your hand. It is a fact, whether you like it or not. So that's where I come in. Glossaryck and I understood this fact, so... begrudgingly, I agreed to playing his games. Countless millennia, countless lifetimes past playing his game. I would always come in, lead my forces of evil against him, and he would always prepare a successor to defend the kingdom.

Star & Marco [speechless]: ... No...

Toffee: I have wondered from time to time how long you Mewmans would've survived without me always knocking on your door, keeping you occupied. To think, without me you would've resorted to destroying yourselves both body and mind... to think, that I of all people gave you a purpose... heh... it's kinda funny to be honest. But I suppose... I just haven't managed to do a good enough job. You Mewman royalties still live a life of excess, while the poor die on the streets with the rats... Eclipsa understood this. She never wanted to be a part of any of this.

Star: But... Eclipsa... she ran away. She was the Queen of Darkness.

Toffee: A title given by fools who never understood the bigger picture, fools who never appreciate the work of deities above them. Sigh I tried... Glossaryck knows I tried. But everything just came full circle, back to square one. History repeats, I come in and pose a threat, they kill me and I would always come back, no matter how convoluted and impossible it seemed… always.

Star: No… no… that can't be. We defeated you… multiple times!

Toffee: and yet here I am still standing. When will you learn? Your mother never learned, and her mother never did, too. Are you going to be the one to break tradition? Huh? … Well, it doesn't matter. I've won, Glossaryck knows it, the universe knows it, and now you do, too.

Star: NO!

Toffee: No?

Star: I won't accept this. You're wrong! This world… this universe cannot be like what you described. People are good, there are goodness in their hearts, and I know it! And I don't care if you're gonna come back a second time, ten times, or even a thousand times. I don't care whether evil is a necessity or not, because as long as there are good people, as long as there is even a single shred of good in this universe, we will always be there forever fighting your evil! And that is all that matters… all that matters is our will to live.

Marco: you said that all of this is just a game, right? Well in that case we will play your game, and WE will win! We are going to fight, alongside both Mewmans and Monsters alike. We won't just stand idly by while people, good people just die in vain. I won't stand by doing nothing anymore… Never again!

Toffee [chuckling]: Ha ha… heh… such fighting spirits, such vigor… it's a shame… in another world, in another time, I think we could've been friends… shame… what was that you always say, Star? Strangers are just friends you haven't met? Hmm… Clever…

[Toffee stood there, with a smile on his face even when a fiery energy blast engulfed him. His smile… perhaps Star was right, anyone can be good… anyone can be good.]
