Glitternade is the femslash ship between Shining Glitter Cookie and Black Lemonade Cookie from the Cookie Run fandom.
Canon[]
Black Lemonade Cookie and Shining Glitter Cookie have known each other since childhood, bonding over their shared love of rock music and being huge fans of the popular artist Rockstar Cookie. They eventually started a three-person band together called SparkL with Bassist Cookie, an NPC who they likely also met in their childhood. Shining Glitter Cookie had eventually left the band when she was scouted by an agency to become a popstar, which caused them to grow apart. Despite the rumours between their fans which believed that Black Lemonade Cookie resented her and was envious of her for it, they never fought and she was even happy for her friend's new career.
Shining Glitter Cookie makes her debut in rock n' roll at the Summer Soda Rock Festa event, while Black Lemonade Cookie later appears in the story as a headlining performer. Though never explicitly shown in the story, there seems to be a new addition to the band which can be seen in the "Transfigure" music video. They end up reuniting, though things are initially tense between them. Their fans had gotten into a big argument, with Shining Glitter’s fans accusing Black Lemonade of stealing her stage outfit. Of course this is completely false, the true culprits being the Durian Staff that wanted to sabotage the event for the other cookies.
When the two finally talk to each other, it is heavily implied that Black Lemonade Cookie only went to the event since Shining Glitter Cookie was also attending, as she goes silent when asked. Shining Glitter Cookie later confirms that she never believed Black Lemonade Cookie had intentionally tried to ruin her performance in the first place. If you take Black Lemonade’s route, Shining Glitter appears in the crowd for her show and vice versa. In Rockstar Cookie’s route, the two of them have a conversation and basically regain the bond they had lost over the years. They reminisce about the past, with Black Lemonade Cookie mentioning how they used to keep Rockstar Cookie's most popular song on repeat until dawn.
After the events of the main story, there are three extra cutscenes unlocked for each ending in Dark mode. For Black Lemonade Cookie's, we see that she still listens to music that Shining Glitter Cookie recommends. She seems to miss her quite a bit, before and even after reuniting. She's hesitant on getting in touch with her, resorting to searching her up instead of calling her. In Shining Glitter Cookie's cutscene, we are shown that she has a lucky charm in the form of a lemon pick, similar to Bassist Cookie's, calling back to the old days of the band when they cut up a lemon and took a piece each. She even mentions that it's really special to her.
In the “3rd Anniversary Festival” event which released on January 2024, you could unlock a mini-cutscene from each update in 2023 via buying from the Anniversary Gallery. In the cutscene for the Summer Soda Rock Festa, despite lacking any interactions between them, there is a brief mention that Black Lemonade Cookie and Shining Glitter Cookie would be together at the afterparty of a Rockstar Cookie concert. This implies that they now hang out more often, and are possibly more close.

Fanon[]
Glitternade can generally be considered one of the fan-favorite ships in the Cookie Run fandom, being at its peak throughout the duration of the Summer Soda Rock Festa update before eventually dying out. It overshadows rival ships like Glitterfait quite a bit, considering they do have more of a backstory together (being childhood friends), but there are still other Cookie Run ships that are more popular than this one.
They fit the Opposites Attract trope quite well, as Shining Glitter's personality consists of being more bubbly and outgoing while Black Lemonade is more laid back, even stating that she isn't exactly good with words and feels more comfortable communicating through music.
There are a couple of works on AO3, as well as a considerable amount of fanart on both Twitter and Tumblr.

Trivia[]
- In the Appearing Cookies section of the Special Episode, one of the entries for Black Lemonade Cookie states that: "Black Lemonade Cookie's most listened to songs of all time are pop songs, surprisingly. Thanks to Shining Glitter Cookie, it was all she heard growing up."
- In Shining Glitter Cookie’s loading screen, it reads “It’s said that Shining Glitter Cookie’s most prized possession is an old mix tape. Apparently, it was made together with a precious childhood friend, and is full of rock classics!” The friend is, of course, Black Lemonade Cookie, and in the costume gacha art for the four Summer Rock Soda Festa outfits, you can see a mixtape on the table next to Shining Glitter Cookie’s seat.
