This may be a reach but

Both MK and Mei having something inside them that could be world-destroying, god-killing, and being afraid of it (with a bonus of Wukong hiding it from them both but idk if u think swk knew of the monkey form beforehand)

Bonus with Mei and MK having someone that can/has helped with training and mastering their abilities (Redson & Wukong respectively)

Oh boy, do I think SWK knew about MK's origins!

I've been a believer in this since post-s3, with there being plenty of evidence throughout the first 3 seasons to support it. Cause like, imma be honest, the show doesn't make sense if Wukong didn't know. I think by this point we can assume that choosing and training MK to be his "successor" was a cover story—Wukong LITERALLY couldn't have picked anyone else. I never really bought the whole "Monkey King gave you his powers!" explanation, especially when one of the first things he says to MK in AHIB is "Listen kid: You fought demons, and you didn't die, and you made it here! Not just anyone can lift my staff, but you did." And even MK had a different thought, thinking his powers came from the staff until 3x03. How would Wukong have even "given" MK his powers, like logistically anyways. There was just a lot that didn't line up! And then s4 came along, and implied "Yeah MK was born from the stone, and Wukong was there" and I was like, oh yeah that makes total sense.

And I'm also a believer in the Samadhi Fire Mei, Jade Emperor Azure, and Monkey MK trifecta of having uncontrollable, world-ending power (which they must also act as a "container" for). And you know, had the person losing control of the Jade Emperor's powers in 4x14 been one of MK's close friends, he would have been able to save them, I have no doubt. He already did so with Mei in 3x10—Mei wasn't even supposed to be able to withstand the samadhi fire. But she did (Yellowtusk "But he is my brother! I owe him my life!" parallel for the win, "No! Mei is my best friend!", YOU GET ME?). And it's like, in 3x10 MK standing by his friend was a good thing but in 4x13 Yellowtusk standing by his friend was bad. In s3 the gang trying to get the Samadhi Fire was "good" (even though they didn't really use it to defeat LBD by the end lol), and Azure trying to get the Jade Emperor's power was "bad". You see how the lines are blurring here. At the start of Monkey Kid, it's all monster of the week and "we have to stop the bad guys!". Now by this point it's "[blank] isn't necessarily a bad guy..." and "Every choice has consequences for someone", even the "good" ones. Is anyone hearing me.

And then don't even get me STARTED on "I can't be! I'm just MK!" "The Monkie Kid?". Because, I'll have you know Subodhi names Wukong in Journey to the West. I just read that chapter. And then in 4x06 he labels, or names, MK as the "Monkie Kid". And this "reason" just FEELS like it's going to involve a great amount of power, something that is...uncontrollable, even. And this time, this time when MK looses control, Mei is going to be the one to get through to him, aka Samadhi Fire Part 3. Like

#Red Son being a mentor figure to Mei like Wukong is a mentor figure to MK is good too #Sorry I completely went off the rails #THE LEGOS HAS MORE NUANCED WRITING THAN A LOT OF STUFF I'VE SEEN. I'M FUCKING TELLING YOU #I think I also had a realization while writing this post that broke me #Which was that like. Wukong wanted to put the Samadhi Fire in himself to beat LBD (his goal)#And Azure wanted to become the Jade Emperor to achieve his goals #Even if their lack of control could have doomed the entire world #And like. You know had the Jade Emperor not already been weak #I wonder if Azure would have resorted to using something like the Samadhi fire to end him.#And that thought just took me OUT #(sometimes I die when I remember that the gang has put their lives on the line over and over again to maintain the status quo)#FALLING APART OVER HERE #lmk #lego monkie kid #lmk meta #YOU KNOW WHAT #MK Mei and Azure tag #power trifecta #asks #hereissananxiousmess

They have such a weird group. I bet the idle chatter was wack.

#dod1 #drakengard 1 #drakengard #angelus drakengard #caim drakengard #leonard drakengard #fairy drakengard #seere drakengard #arioch drakengard #undyne drakengard #salamander drakengard #i'm so sorry golem i don't know how to draw rocks. i tried but i had to delete him. some other time.#realistically speaking you should never ever fall asleep within arioch's presence especially if you are a child #arioch was kept in quarantine the whole trip #but i couldn't just not include her!#undyne and salamander are so small i love their little blob forms here #i feel a little bad for tagging them considering they're teeny tiny blobs #also i like to think that the gang takes off their armour to sleep #they'd probably also take off all the belts and straps but they looked weird without them #i'll have to make like. pajama headcanons eventually.#imagine leonard with a nightcap and a candle and some slippers #btw clearly caim and arioch go to the same designer with their shoulderless sleeves. hand warmers? thingamajiggies.#they look comfy tho i kinda want some #is caim asleep or are his eyes open and he's contemplating life and his seething unyielding rage? you decide #actually tbf it's canon that he sleeps with his eyes open so you do have option number three as well #my art #<- i always forget that tag

for no fucking reason: real life dictatorships in the 20th and 21th centuries are almost always allowed to thrive because of some empire's interests. If not, they get heavily demonized then dismantled by said empire over a relatively short period of time (unless exceptional circumstances, tho it's almost always applicable). the examples are countless; please read declassified reports and interviews from the CIA/KGB/other intelligence agencies across the world to lose your mind about it, especially those involving what happened during the Cold War and what happened in the Middle East (and still does).

characters like ganondorf are the epitomy of the fantasy that colonized/"exotic" countries naturally spawn evil incarnate and must be controlled/stumped/imprisoned/destroyed by the "responsible ones" while the perfect good place is perfect and utterly blameless about what went down and how the local population suffered (which, in real life, the empires of the world are most definitively not that --the amount of dictators that were ushered into power by western interests is staggering and we fucking love to see it don't we). And also, a blameless victim to whichever retribution eventually comes back their way.

It is a rethoric that denies interconnectivity and historical responsibility.

this is what I criticize about the narrative choices of a fictional conflict that *does not exist in real life* and has been entirely made up by human beings: the cowardice of blamelessness, and what little this kind of narrative brings to the table --especially today when we should be looking at the root cause of broken systems of violence instead of endlessly scapegoating minorities.

and well, especially given how effective this narrative apparently seems to be.

#thoughts #totk critical #zelda fandom critical #deactivated the reblog for this one gang #because I already spoke about that a billion times and I don't want to go back on that particular caroussel #but it is very! very frustrating that people's political ignorance makes them so brazenly hostile #even though we probably are on the same side and we could support each other in other circumstances #but I guess it's more ??? interesting to project a weird ass persona onto people you refuse to understand or show empathy for #like my grandparents lived under nazi occupation and my father grew up under a military dictatorship #a family cousin was literally thrown into the ocean from a helicopter #I am far from unfamiliar with the violence of a fascist Strongman and the marks they leave behind #had to deal with that generational trauma from both sides of the family! nice + fun #and I guess I still have the opinions I have??? incredible #almost like I didn't hold onto the first gut reaction I ever had or something #almost like the world is complicated and I expect fiction (yes even fiction for 12 yo and up) to acknowledge that fact #((sorry if I'm uhh a little bitter and not super gracious))#((but I was already having a bad week))#((and I suppose being called disgusting and lowkey fascist-apologist over liking a goddamn nintendo character will do that do you))

unrelatedly to everything I don't recommend getting bitten by ticks. I recommend even less waking up in the morning only to find three of them already hanging out on you. I recommend EVEN LESS THAN THAT the experience of sitting alone in the middle of your dorm room having to get them out of your Own Skin as quickly and carefully as possible with a pair of tweezers .

And god forbid you just took a vector-borne disease class the semester before this event happened so now all the possible diseases a tick can transmit are just fresh in ur brain . and of course this is your first time getting bitten by ticks

#I mean AGAIN none of them could've been latched onto me for longer than 24 hours . Nor were any of them swollen to suggest #they'd even had a proper blood meal yet. So like. I SHOULD be fine.#But seeing that one of them was indeed a lone star tick I'm just looking at the slimmest possibility of getting that acquired meat allergy #and gritting my teeth in anguish at the thought #but at the SAME TIME. Like. It would be a little funny. LIKE NO IT WOULDN'T but it'd be like. Ironic. given what I am studying dhgKJSDH #This probably needs tagging so people aren't like. Jumpscared by gross tick talk.#parasites #tw bug #tw ticks #ask to tag #sorry for complaining about getting ganged up on by ticks on your dash. Unfortunately ever since this experience I've been compulsively #checking myself for ticks every few minutes. So like. I'm having a great time #clamtalk #bugposting

#gang #tianshan #19 days #19 days old xian #old xian #mo guan shan #he tian #sorry to make it angsty but if I'm gonna be crying then you're gonna be crying too #I mean people in Mo's life have left him in the past #his father (though not through any fault of him own)#any friends he had before his father going to jail...#he kind of has his now and the buzzcut but they don't seem that close #so He Tian leaving too...

If I could make a request for the Kiss writing ask, how about Fugitive!Doctor/River (or Mels, your choice), with number 18. For encouragement! Thank youuuu <3

Thank you for the prompt dear! An excellent choice in my totally unbiased opinion :)

I'm feeling slightly guilty because I should have

A) finished the Osgate kiss before this one and

B) reblogged your beautiful piece before answering this ask.

But I need to get this out before I can continue with anything else so here we go. I hope you like it!

Some things first however:

Despite there technically not being any need for them specifically in the scene, I would still like to apologise for sidelining the Paternoster Gang here. I would have liked to focus more on them but this is already too long. Plus, like, my general inability to nicely include 5 people in a scene.

(Also, I think this is the first time you're reading me writing the Paternoster Gang and I am accordingly very nervous.)

(However, I did need another couple to be with Doctorriver here and my first instinct was to choose Bill and Jenny - because this Doctor should meet her daughter and granddaughter and so should River. But then I thought you would prefer the other Jenny plus Vastra and I came up with a nice role for Strax, too, so the scene changed marginally)

Also, this snippet is more 'a lot of encouragement with a kiss hidden somewhere' than 'a kiss for encouragement' but I hope you don't mind?

And, finally, just to reassure you: this may initially read like angst, but it's pure fluff. I promise <3

Rating: Teen

Defeat and Encouragement (Fugitive Doctor x River with a side of Jenny x Vastra)

The Doctor was lying on the floor, defeated. Her eyes were closed, all tension gone from her body. She suddenly looked the millenia old that the man River had once married had possessed despite his childlike face. Neither her nor the Doctor were sure how many millenia this incarnation had lived and forgotten about but they had surely added to his already impressive number and right now the Doctor seemed to have fast forwarded to that point.

Half of her body lay draped over the plastic canvas, her left arm resting on top of a red spot, the other limbs had rolled off onto the wooden floor of the Victorian sitting room.

"Is she -"

There was honest concern in Jenny's voice, but she broke off when River's gaze shot her way. Even Vastra had a noticable tension to the way she held onto her wife as they helped each other into an upright position. But there was also an amused smile tugging at her lips and River wasn't certain that she found it more aggravating than contagious.

The Doctor let out a soft groan, almost a whine, as if to prove she was still alive.

"Shall I shoot him?" Strax asked eagerly, lowering down the tablet he was holding. "Put him out of his misery?"

"That's alright, dear" River held him back, "Let me talk to her."

She crouched down next to the Doctor and reached out for the hand on the canvas - not quite touching but hovering close.

"Sweetie?" she asked gently. "Are you getting up?"

There was a miniscule shake of the Doctor's head, barely visible.

"We've lost" she managed quietly. That was all she seemed willing to contribute.

"We've lost the battle" River argued with a smirk. "We can still win the war."

The Doctor finally turned her head to squint up at her.

"When you've lost 6 out of 6 battles" she muttered, "there comes a point where you have to ask yourself whether you aren't losing the war, too."

Now River tapped their fingers together and immediately, the Doctor complied, grasping her hand. River leant closer, whispering:

"When you've lost six battles, you'll have your wife telling you to get up and win the seventh with her."

The Doctor glowered. "That's what you told me the last five times."

River smiled.

"And I will tell you again a seventh time" she promised.

"If Gat could see me now" the Doctor groaned, closing her eyes again. "Decades of Division training, superior timelord reflexes and all that. And then I get beaten by a couple of Earthlings."

At the last sentence, there was a smile tugging at her lips however, as if the irony and ridiculousness of the situation started seeping through the fog of her mortification.

"If Gat could see you now, she would tell you the same as I do" River said. "To get up and fight."

"Wrong" the Doctor let out a dry laugh. "She would tell Strax to go ahead and shoot me."

"Come on now." River pulled at her hand and reluctantly, under groans of pain, the Doctor followed her into a sitting position. River cupped her cheek and she leant into the touch, looking up at her through her lashes.

"We're not giving up now, are we?" River whispered.

She lead their faces together and pressed a gentle, encouraging kiss to the Doctor's lips. It was merely a peck, short and sweet, but the effect was stunning. The Doctor chased after her lips, sat up straighter and her expression brightened visibly. She was not the only one: Even after all these years and different incarnations, the smallest exchanges of affections with her spouse never failed to give River butterflies.

Her voice slightly hoarse, she continued: "You and me? We can do this. We've fought loads of tougher battles before."

"I don't know about that." The Doctor's gaze flitted towards Jenny and Vastra, but River called her back to attention.

"Are you seriously ready to give up, Doctor?"

She hadn't meant for it to sound that mocking, not with this Doctor. In an older regeneration the comment would have fueled ambition, the need to prove themself. But her wife took the stubbornness in the opposite direction.

She jutted her chin out provocatively, fixating River. "What if I am?"

River relented. "Is there really nothing I can do to persuade you?"

She brushed her thumb against the Doctor's lip suggestively, but naturally, the Doctor's brain jumped away the very second she promised gifts.

"You could let me have the last piece of the chocolate cake Jenny made?" she said hopefully, glancing between their friends.

"If that's what it takes for you to get off the floor" Jenny said and now amusement was apperent in her voice as well.

The Doctor weighed the offer thoughtfully for a moment, then she nodded resolutely.

"Alright" she agreed, "let's do this!"

She let River pull her to her feet and righted her waistcoat with emphasis. "I'm ready."

"Ready to eat dust for the seventh time?" Vastra teased and Jenny playfully hit her shoulder.

"Be nice" she scolded her, before turning and smirking at River. "It's not their fault they're hopeless at their game."

River looked at the Doctor, curious whether her battered pride would make her bristle, but the encouragement seemed to have worked as she was looking back calmly.

"On the contrary" she said cheerfully. "We're ready to make you eat your words. Aren't we, love?"

She leant against River conspiringly who grinned up at her.

"Seventh time's the charm?" she offered and the Doctor's mouth twitched merrily.

"Obviously" she agreed, definitely as aware as River that they were about to go down against their friends yet another time.Apparently excellent martial arts and sword skills trumped timelord biology when it came to human party games. "And anyway I've already been promised a piece of cake, so who's winning in the grand scheme of things?"

'Won a cake for putting on a show' River thought fondly, and she had to lean in to kiss that smug smile off her face. They really were the same dramatic idiot in every one of their bodies.

"Can we continue now?" Strax raised the tablet with an air of importance.

"I believe we can" Vastra assured him, offering her hand to Jenny to lead her to their side of the canvas. "Shall we, my dear?"

"Of course, my darling" Jenny agreed readily.

River raised to her tiptoes, whispering into the Doctor's ear: "Let them laugh, we'll laugh later."

"Yes, when we'll share my cake" the Doctor whispered back and River let out a surprised snort.

"Were you playing the long game after all, Sweetie?" she hummed. "Are you actually really good at this?"

"Prepare to be amazed, love" the Doctor boasted, full of false bravado that River was sure she would regret in an instance.

"Positions!" Strax ordered sharply, turning the arrow on the tablet with enthusiasm. He looked up, smirked devilishly and pronounced loudly: "Left hand: Green. I hope you'll enjoy getting twisted in excruciating pain!"

[ID: gif of a spinning twister tablet. end ID]

I hope it got clear what is happening here? It seems very clear in my head but I am not sure that it translates to the outside. Maybe it's a good idea to read it twice if it's a little confusing at first.

In case it doesn't become clear, here's what happened in my head up until this point:

The Doctor and River visited their friends

The Doctor proposed a game of Twister

Strax was delighted because that sounded refreshingly violent

Strax is an excellent strategist and very strong but agility is not his forte so he very quickly lost interest when he kept failing after one or two spins

He did delight in being referee though, spin the arrow and watch the others struggle

To make matters more interesting, someone (maybe River?) proposed to make it a couple's game one couple against the other

From that point on the Doctor and River have lost every single game and the Doctor is done by now - hence staying on the floor after falling from a failed reach for a spot with some limb

Oh yeah, also, please don't ask me how this fits into canon. I have no idea.

#Idk I think I'm hilarious #Hope you enjoy it too even if it might be unnecessarily confusing 😅#they (the Doctor mostly) are overly dramatic and so am I #I had an absolute blast writing it at least - so sorry Osgood and Kate </3 #Thank you so much for the prompt!!#I haven't actually written much fluffy fugitive Doctor so this was extra nice for that reason too #doctor who #River Song #Fugitive Doctor #Jenny Flint #Madame Vastra #Strax #doctor who fanfic #doctor x river #yowzah #the paternoster gang #jenny x vastra
