Chapter 32

@journeythroughjourneytothewest

So by chapter 32 imma say that they are like three years together at this point, or at least 2 and a half since it is spring again and Sanzang met Wukong in like Fall/Winter.

So love that it is a thing that Wukong know the heart suntra more than Sanzang and he can take it to heart even more

It is impressive that here Wukong is actaully talking about custody and arrests rather than straight-up murder. Either he changed his tune and is willing to go the extra mile to arrest demons but I think that kinda neat that he knows the legislation of which jurisdiction is overseeing what kind of demons

Guy: They want to eat you Wukong: okay but like.... how?

WUKONG WANTS TO KNOW

Wukong DEADASS YOU ARE A BLESSING

HE knows how he wanna dies

Wukong: I love my sanity sometime last year when we got the pig so like..... just point me in the right direction bub

Wukong: These idiot, don't they know I'm me

Wukong just can't relate

Wukong: Let's see I'll have Bajie go up and fight. He if wins, he wins! If he loses I can save him and rub it in his face! Win-win!

HE REALLY SAID FUCK BAJIE RIGHTS

NOOOOO

HE FAKE CRYING THIS BITCH

SELL THE HORSE AND BUY SANZANG A COFFIN BAJIE DAMN

WUKONG COMES CRYING AND HE PANICS

Tells everyone GO HOME WE LOST BEFORE WE EVEN BEGUN

HE SO WORRIED HE SO CONCERNED

I just just SEE Wukong fucking smirking that he now get to boss around Bajie and Wujing. Wujing deadass standing there like "oh no the power has gone to his head" AND IT HAS SANZANG fell for the crying hook, line, and sinker

Sanzang: Listen to you big brother Wukong: Yeah porky listen to me

He gives Bajietwo choices 1. stay with the master and WHEN you fail you will be beaten or 2. go 'patrol' the mountain ie. go lure the monsters out

Sanzang: stop laughing at your brother Wukong: hehehehohoho Funny Piggy going to get

Wukong: I'm going to go spy on him Sanzang: just please.... don't mess with him Wukong: No promises

These are bully Bajie hours now

OOOO HE CALLED HIS A DODDERING, THE BIMAWEN, AND A SISSY

THIS LITTLE SHIT BE TALKING SHIT

Wukong tuns into a woodpecker to bite him

I think this like the ONLY time I've seen Wukong attack in a transformed form

Damn Bajie have some self respect

HE IS HAVING SO MUCH FUCKING FUN

GOOD FOR HIM

I can't tell.... if Sanzang is saying that Bajie is too stupid to lie and that he just can't see it.... or if he really thinks Wukong likes messing with Bajie enough to get him in trouble on purpose

He just happy he gets to scold the other for once, revenge never tasted more

GBSUKGNSIOEGNSOIENGS "You can beat him later, we in the middle of something right now"

WUKONG DOES NOT CARE PLEASE

NOW BAJIE SCARED THAT EVERYTHING IS WRONG ON HIS PATH HE SO WORRIED

It's funny how these demons find out about Sanzang. Like the heavenly beasts or people just KNOW Sanzang is the Golden Cicada because that was just that some hot gossip. And normal demons just hear either from the grape vines or other demons but deadass these fallen celestials are like 90% of the reason I think everyone knows about Sanzang

LIKE THESE GUYS EVEN HAVE WANTED POSTERS OF THESE GUYS

WHO MADES THESE?!

A common trait of Bajie is that he tries to hide his snout a lot during the journey, he tries to hide it in his chest/shirt like 4 times already. Kinda sad actaully how he wants to hide

Instead of yo mama jokes, they have 'im you daddy now' jokes in 200 AD China

Love that it is acknowledged that Bajie COULD have taken on Silver Horn one-on-one but he got overwhelmed with numbers. Poor guy...

-OH MY GOD!! BULLSHIT AU INCOMING!!

-Okay okay okay, so school au right?! Macaque-king of the theater program- if he's not lead he's a big character or master of the backstage always has his hands in everything cause he loves the stage and the other kids who have the drive and passion for it. Incomes wukong and the other preps and asses who suddenly wanna audition and be a part of the "magic" cause "oh my god it's just like that one episode/show/movie!!" Makes all of macaques fellow students feel so isolated when this was their space to shine. They had the fucking courts and hallways. Que some high school musical bullshit where macaque puts these preps through the ringer of the theater life, the heavy equipment, the long hours of lighting and blocking and he's not afraid to bully. He's the jock on this stage and he's got a bite to his bark. One by one they leave because they won't be disrespected/it's too hard/ this isnt fun at all...all but the biggest stubborn bitch mac's crossed paths with.

-✨Wukong, star jock, biggest bully cause he's clearly the best, and school massive douche of a prankster✨(Only cause we're going really Disney channel with this au)

-Macaques equal when it comes to weight they can throw around and what they can take. Wukong doesn't break at all, carrying stage peices like it's nothing, actually singing good, standing still out of pride and stubbornness more then anything. But with how loud he is and how above he thinks he is- it takes macaque literally screaming in his face "YOU FUCKS HAVE EVERYTHING! EVERY PEICE OF THE SCHOOL TO RUN BUT THE PLACE WHERE OUTCAST LIKE US CAN FEEL LIKE PEOPLE! AND YOU INVADED IT LIKE EVERYWHERE ELSE BECAUSE WERE LIKE A DAMN TV SHOW!" Then wukong kinda breaks alittle, blinking at his punkish/gothish rival in a new light, never seeing the other gets so emotional. "Oh..." "YEAH OH!! Why the hell do you think I've been trying to get you assholes out of here!! This is barely a fraction of the abuse you give us on the daily!"

-But!!!! The worst part is that wukong is good right?! And he doesn't even understand what's technically happening so two things could happen depending on what theme we're going for yeah???

-Either 1) wukong stops coming, gives the loners their space and actually stands up for them outside the theater as well. Opening night he's there frontish row cause you know...he wants to see what macaque sees..not see it for how the other jocks do..and then he slips backstage to offer Mac roses or something and they can start anew in a healthier way.

-Or the more dramatic 2) wukong doesn't quit the show. He's lead and with him there they get a whole new crowd interested in the theater program and macaque has to deal with it...but at least wukong is taking it more seriously. Till the big day..where wukong relaizes as he peeks out of the curtains that all those people..all watching, all waiting...he doesn't get to hide among the team or sit out when he fucks up...he's the lead, if messes up he ruins the whole show. Que his massive stage fright freak out so close to show time

-But macaque isn't a complete ass and he's had plenty of his stage crew who have stage fright..so he pulls wukong aside to a dark quiet space and they have a tender moment there..something along the lines around

"What if I fuck up?!"

"When has that stopped you before peaches?"

"It's nothing compared to this!!!"

"It's not so easy now huh?"

"no..i-I don't think I can do this..."

Which ya know...shows macaque just how bad this is running deep if Wukongs going to bail and humble himself that badly ya know?

-Which is another branch of things that could happen. Macaque doing the simple things of pulling wukong from the show..they have understudies for a reason. Sure they may suffer since the crowd came to see wukong but he's seen panic attacks..and this is the cusp of a big one..one wukong might not recover from.

-The other being the more cuter but again silly movie thing.

"I'm the lead too...just focus on me..just like in practice. The lights will be so bright you won't be able to see them and it will just be us out there..I won't let you mess up..and after, were all going out for food? I'll pay for an extra desert for you."

Look at Mozhi, getting Wukong alone in some grey place, wearing his clothes, the scarf, the fillet. I LOVE MOZHIIIIIIIII-!!! HOLY- LOOK AT THAT BANGER SCENE ICY. Like, when I first heard the Classic Hero Speech from Wukong, this guy is always just BARELY HANGING ONTO THE NARRATIVE. He doesn't do this. He cannot escape the curse of fictional mentors. He has a deep profound sadness within him AND IT GETS CALLED OUT. You're a secretly depressed monkey. the pure mockery Mozhi throws at him!! for trying to be like one of them!! the AUDACITY to be twirling around the fillet!! the punctuated emphasis and hardness to Wukong's words, no WONDER Mozhi didn't think Wukong believed himself, like ellooooo I relate to that so hard aha, the motivational speech when you're losing it yourself on the inside. but the fact that he tries, THE FACT THAT HE TALKS ABOUT THE PAST THIS IS SO EVIL OF THEM UGHHH. some of it is kinda cheesy too, like by the book comfort, but the fact these words are coming from THIS GUY and voice acted LIKE THAT *shakes screen* AND THEN WHEN HIS OLD COMPANIONS COME ON SCREEN DEVASTATING!!! AND HE GLOWS "I won't let some curse bully me or my friends a second longer." HE CALLED THEM HIS FRIENDS. also don't think we didn't notice the deflection there bud. some honesty and heart here tho! Do you think Mozhi is foreshadowing S5? that MK goes whackamonkey on us and he needs to get sealed/fillet by his friends for his own/the world's good? because it sure could be! the foreshadowing is strong whenever these shenanigans are on screen + if you remember Shadow Play haha, a certain future-hearing monkey painted this exact scene with MK rising in his monkey form. Which I think he did in the pilot too. so it would be "the past" this is the present. and then there's the "future" where this also happens. dang, got all 3 sets of ears covered for this happening! "Then prove us wrong." hehe, "us" being Mozhi and MK. Prove to yourself that what you deny about yourself is true. This power, won't bring chaos. You can use it to save people? Do it. ALSO NOTE: If you remember Minor Scale. There's this quick whisper of "no wait, stop. what are you doing." when MK goes to destroy the Trigram Furnace. Its...his inner voice, but MK has always had trippy whispers and instinct. Perhaps actually...its Mozhi? The curse really is just MK's inner voice given form.

Hmmmm

In consequences au, does Nezha ever see Li Jing when he goes to the celestial realm? How did Wukong get custody of this child??

(id appreciate any asks about lmk au's to go to my lmk blog :) )

hmmm that's a but tricky, isn't it? hmmm

okay so I took a minute to think about this and here's what I got. the celestial realm isn't exactly aware of how close nezha and wukong have become. whenever they see the two together they see political allies, not father and son. I like to think the celestial realm is pretty oblivious as a whole to things that happen on the mortal realm unless it directly affects them and not to mention ffm is pretty secure. so li jing doesn't exactly know nezha has hehe replaced him.

he knows nezha has been distant, they haven't spoken in a long time and while idk a ton about him i don't think he minds all that much. like as far as he thinks nezha lives in his lotus temple and attends to his godly duties/ protecting the map. he was never fond of nezha from the moment he was born.

so yeah Sun Nezha isn't legally Sun Nezha. He's Li Nezha to everyone other than them. it's more of a hushed thing and there's a reason for that

so this is another hc of mine (its kinda shown in the first cons comic) nezha isn't completely respected by the celestial realm. they know of the "mischievous, trickster, troublemaker, dragon killing" child. and the fact that he's basically a single child on stools in a petticoat doesn't help one bit. respect for him has grown since he first started working in the celestial realm but people still side-eye and talk shit.

if the celestial realm knew, nezha's reputation would falter, while the celestial realm gives sun wukong due respect bc of his raw strength and he hasn't caused them trouble since before the journey. yet they still talk shit (they're petty as all hell) nezha, while strong, is easier to tease/pick on/ bully. minor gods whispering and giggling amongst each other as they glance at the lotus prince, other people near his rank and above giving him looks, obviously condescending to him when they talk stuff like that.

but if they knew he was so close to swk that would triple. instead of trying to be subtle it would turn into one clear and loud message "we don't respect you"

so rn nezha is still technically Li Nezha, wukong only has custody of him in the mortal realm bc Nezha says so. In the mortal realm its.

"my son" "lotus" "sweetheart" "little one" "mah baby boi :P"

in the celestial realm its

"Li nezha" "old friend" "ally"

wukong understands the arrangement and respects it. as long as they can go back home after whatever meetings they attended and swk can hold his kid he's fine with whatever.

Nezha is his son.

he doesn't need to scream to the whole world that he loves his son. as long as Nezha knows he is loved he is content.

About the PIF and DBK, Chang'e and her love, I didn't even doubt it 🥹

Nezha isn't dating anyone in canon. But had a confrontation with this dragon in his own story. And the cartoon of the same name tells us about a very beautiful friendship between them.

Thank you for answers! But it comes out that Macaque and Wukong are not friends, but enemies here?

Thank you for confirming my doubts!

If I'm not mistaken nezha accidentally killed or hurt the dragon he was friend with, but I'm not too sure because i heard it once or twice with no proof behind them.

But! I will be looking into this friendship between him and the dragon so i can make something out of it! Thank you!

About Macaque and Wukong though,

In the swap AU they are more towards jttw rather than LMK.

I always liked the theory of macaque being wukong little evil twin because he was the manifestation of wukong worst traits and thought, but since i didn't wanna do it because i wanted to give my macaque enjoyers buddies their macboob, i changed it into something else.

he's still leaning towards jttw, he's just not that theory i just said!

Macaque and Wukong aren't nor were friends before, wukong actually didn't know macaque.

I explained it in another ask which I'll get real quick once I'm done answering this one, so i can edit this ask and put the link, but yeah!

I can explain it real quick anyway.

Macaque is actually just a normal human like wukong who is driven by jealousy and hate, trying to kill wukong just to get hid identity and fame.

Like in the book where the six eared macaque chapter comes in and there's wukong fighting with himself.

In the book though, macaque eats and enslaves wukong subjects and other things, in this AU he tried to ruin wukong life by spreading rumors or bullying him severely ect.

It turned over the years of macaque trying to kill wukong, so they kinda became enemies.

Yes! Macaque still tried to steal wukong identity, but failed, so he just went with plan B (aka: kill the monkey dude and take his place.)

'till this day wukong has to fight macaque.

And while his brothers do know about macaque, they don't know the full story.

For them it's wukong and macaque acting like stray cats, they don't know that macaque is actively trying to kill wukong and is the reason why wukong is basically a daily customer to the hospital.

But then if you switch to chang'e and Nezha, they know a different story.

For them it's one of the foes wukong has to fight daily, and they think of macaque as just a snobby copycat.

None of them know why macaque is like that, and neither does wukong.

But wukong is actively annoying macaque by calling him old or names such as macboob or macaroni, and macaque just gets pissed and starts a fist fight, so no wonder wukong brothers don't think it's too much of a deal !

About the hospital part..

No, neither Tripitaka nor wukong brothers know about wukong going to the hospital because of macaque machines and cruelty.

sure, once or twice it happened because the hospital didn't listen to wukong "call chang'e instead" and called Tripitaka,

But once he figured that out, they never knew about the hospital.

He's only doing it so they don't get stressed about the macaque situation y'know?

okay but now with all that nice, juicy s3 context, more lmk/ninjago interactions? 👀

like mei and lloyd where mei casually drops the fact that she has/had the samadhi fire and lloyd's just like "the what"

or bai he and lloyd talking about getting possessed "i was completely conscious as a notoriously murderous monkie was about to murder me to kill the spirit :3 anyway wanna pet my cat?"

or lloyd and red son talking about releasing ancient evils

or wu and wukong— just talking about being mentors*

*(drabble idea where they switch trainees for a day)

argh i love these these are fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ive mentioned mei and lloyd in the post right before this

bai he and lloyd on what its like to be possessed 😭whatever lloyd went through bai he got it like 10 times worse omg. they could go to therapy together guys omg... anyway firm believer that lloyd loves cats i think theyd both choose to ignore (repress) the whole possession thing and focus on the cute cat because that just seems like a lloyd thing to do (idk what bai he's character is but i choose to believe she would to). and then zane would book a therapy appointment.

i honestly think red son is what lloyd would have turned out to be if garmadon wasnt trapped in the realm of madness and could actually raise him. lloyd is all like "damn you got TWO parents.. lucky bastard" anyway yeah theyve both unleashed ancient evils then got kinda manipulated but lbd is definitely infinitely worse than pythor. red son listening to lloyds tragic awful double L life and is like damn you gullible af and then proceed bully him

i think lloyd could probably join in on their mentor talk because he technically is a mentor now!!! (also im pretty sure wu is like not alive anymore) BUT in an alternate universe where theyre all together yes they would talk about mentorship and yes lloyd is like in his early 20s so he doesnt really belong but iss fiiinee. he and wukong can attend wu's masterclass on how to mentor 101

AND YESS i would love to see that drabble i love that idea so much you dont understand on the lmk side everyone is just tired and bored like omg how do the ninja survive master wu morning breath? and ninjago side everyone is just confused like you sure youre a mentor? youre not even repeating words of wisdom over and over again! (never put off until tomorrow what can be done today folks)

I actually have 2 questions about your oc! First, is there anything you can reveal about her dynamics with Macaque? Second, when did the blep face grabbing thing start (love that art btw, very cute)?

Bleps are just so cute to draw--oki so:

For your first question, Héng's dynamic with him is she only knows Macaque from the shadowplays(in her disguise) until he starts talking about the Tiger immortal demon, then it starts to become this like off and on enemies to friends kind of thing--honestly I kind of haven't thought of if Macaque would even want to know more about her or not. She visits his shows while shes out from hiding in her home just to get out, and is happier that he doesn't know her.

But like her actual form with Mac is just her bullying him and him bullying her I guess XD

He's reminded of how his mentor treated him so seeing Héng just makes him go full out tsundere mode and then Héng just doesn't wanna even deal so pretty chaotic XDD

For your second question(also thank you)

It allll started from the post I made with Macaque blepping so I just expanded the idea on Héng and Wukong

I found it so funny to just come up with like a lil mini hc that Héng's dad just grabbing her cheeks to make her blep like during training to pay attention and now with him gone, she sorta has adopted that and kinda uses that as a form of protection..and unironically bleps aswell

So yea heheh

I have a funny/kinda sad scenario to share with you- sun wukongs both spoiling his pocket monkey mango and teaching MK right? so imagine sun wukong dealing with the ever classic problem he faced in the jttw- pets gaining power and intelligence from listening in on someones teachings and deciding to use that power for evil.

But mangos version of evil is just like, ham ham adventures and he's stealing his treats from the fridge when sun wukongs not looking and playing pranks on mk.

mk SWEARING something is up with sun wukongs mango but monkey kings not hearing it, dont call his mango an evil demon man its rude.

Mango sneaks out of their hamster cage and hiding somewhere just to pull a prank on sun wukong and almost starting a mass demon slaughtering spree in sun wukongs hunt to find his darling mango.

Macaque would teach his lil peaches stuff on purpose so he could better figure out what peaches needs/wants when chirping.

🌸You magnificent bastard !!!!You are a freaking genius I love you!!!!😍🌸✨😆😚💖💜💛✨

🌸I can totally see him bullying MK! getting into his stuff and leaving him a present in his shoes when he stays over at Monkey King's house. And mango being jealous of MK getting more time with HIS King! Oh, and maybe when Monkey King, does see him do something he's not supposed to, he looks up at him with big eyes and does a cute little bow he saw on TV once to show that he's very sorry, Wukong just freaking melts thinking he is and lil mango gets away with it!! 😚OMG this is the cutest idea ever!!!😆💕

🌸📺I'm going to go watch that ham ham Adventure, all these ideas sounds really good!😍😚💖🌸✨💜💛🐹

Kisses 17 and 26 and Touches 15 with MKsdadshipping?

Affection meme

17. kisses as a promise

26. giggling while kissing

15. hugging each other

For some reason fluff wasn't coming to me for these, so I said to myself "how funny would it be if i managed to make this an angst fill?" and now here we are

this just in: three middle aged(-ish one of them's immortal) men in a polyam trio are completely blind to what they bring to the dynamic and all consider themselves as the 'awkward third one whose just kinda there lowkey ruining things'

--

It was more than he deserved.

All of this.

To the point where every so often he’d have to peer at the world around them and the two of them just to be sure he hadn’t somehow been fooled and was being left to rot in an illusion, or perhaps that calabash those silver and gold brothers still had about.

But no, the world was as it should be around him, unless whatever it was was so thoroughly good at crafting its illusions it could fool even the Monkey King himself. For all intents and purposes, he was in reality.

And in reality, he had his two greatest loves back. It wasn’t perfect of course. Neither of them remembered their pasts alongside him, sp as far as their own histories were concerned, he was in fact the interloper while they’d been around each other for years already. He was… an untested variable.

An interloper.

It wasn’t like this was as it was back then, when the three of them had slotted together practically as one despite the superficial dynamic of master and two eldest disciples.

But they didn’t have that anymore, and he was okay with it. It was probably just the echoes of Sanzang and Baije that made them decide to bring him into their little fold, and he was okay with it.

Besides, it made for a lovely view. The way Tang would tease and taunt Pigsy with that adoring glint in his eye just because he thought he looked cute when he was mad. How he was pretty sure Pigsy would purposely rise to the bait more than he actually was getting angry because that was simply how their relationship worked by that point. How before too long had passed the two would stop and begin to laugh. A sweet domestic peck shared between chuckles.

It was beautiful in its simplicity. He was glad he was allowed to peer in.

It was more than he deserved for how he'd failed them so long ago.

--

Look, here’s the thing.

Even before they’d found out about all of this reincarnation business, Tang had been possibly the biggest Monkey King fan in China (Though Xiaotian may have given him a run for his money if all of that successor nonsense hadn’t started up) and that was all well and good when he might as well have been just another historical figure.

And then he was a far more common figure in their lives and Pigsy had grown a bit… worried. Mostly that his husband would embarrass himself in front of his idol of course. Then… you know.. Sun Wukong proved himself to be a complete and utter dork and the mystique began to fall away, and Pigsy found he liked Sun Wukong a lot better than he’d ever liked The Monkey King.

And then… well.. Sometimes things really do just fall into place, don’t they?

Of course, nothing was without its bumps, and Pigsy was man enough to admit that sometimes he just couldn’t keep up with his husband and boyfriend when the two of them got rolling on something. Bouncing from topic to topic fired back and forth like a Ping Pong Volleyball match right when he realized he might have something to add to a topic of conversation they were already about three subject changes away from it. And he wasn’t about to be that guy that says ‘back on that earlier thing though-’ and derail the whole flow.

After a certain point he’d just feel lost, catching up let alone keeping up a far away dream. Sure once one of them noticed that they’d gotten carried away they’d both apologize and be all awkward about it, usually stay on a topic for quite a bit longer, but Pigsy could tell it was just to include him so he usually assured them he was happy just listening.

He’d watch as either of them got back into what they were talking about, and whatever historical document Tang had offhandedly mentioned he’d give a limb just to peer at Wukong would mention he had a copy off off-handedly. And he’d at least get a laugh out of the shocked/awed/excited look that only Sun Wukong seemed to be able to bring out of him, as the Monkey King promised to be right back, he just needed to pop over to his mountain to grab it. Gently peking Tang on the cheek and winking at him before shimmying open the window and taking off.

Tang was always practically vibrating when he’d get back and they’d go back to whatever they were talking about without skipping a beat and… you know…

Pigsy wasn’t stupid, he graduated with top marks from culinary school.

But he just wasn’t quite on the same level as his husband, and that had been fine when it was just the two of them, and he certainly didn’t regret bringing Wukong into their lives like this but…

He couldn’t help but feel like he just… couldn’t keep up.

--

Tang had always known he wasn’t particularly good at… people… he talked too much, didn’t understand the line between playful ribbing and outright bullying, allowed his passions to drive him to the point of making some pretty bad choices.

He’d figured Pigsy (and to a lesser extent Sandy) was probably the only person he’d ever really have in his life that didn’t mind all of that. That liked yelling about as much as Tang liked making him yell.

It had honestly been a dream come true to not only MEET Sun Wukong, but to realize he was cut from a similar cloth. His ‘fears no heaven nor demon’ attitude made anything and everything slide off his back, even some pretty nasty things said with the intent to hurt (though Xiaotian was a noticeable exception, he took almost everything their kid said to heart) But by that line Tang had been so excited that he actually COULD talk to him about almost anything. And so they did. They talked quite a lot.

But… the thing was… they debated and explained and dialogued, and flirt if the mood stuck (and wasn’t that trippy to experience for the first time) Tang just… couldn’t shut his damn mouth. He didn’t really realize it until he’d been coming home one of those rare days Pigsy had the shop closed but he had to give a lecture and had just been quiet enough to see what Sun Wukong and Pigsy got up to when he wasn’t around and…

It was quiet. Very quiet. Tang almost didn’t want to breathe. He’d been able to keep silent, but he was sure Sun Wukong had sensed his presence just as the doorknob had turned. He was just a bit… distracted.

Distracted by being curled up against Pigsy’s back as he threw together lunch for the lot of them. It occurred to Tang quickly that Pigsy never let him be affectionate while he was cooking. How he was ‘distracting’ and ‘always sneaking tastes’ and such, whereas Sun Wukong appeared to be content in just hugging his husband close as he cooked. And… it was a sweet scene really. Pigsy was always embarrassed over his more animalistic instincts around him, but every time he’d poke his head in on him and Sun Wukong he was getting more and more comfortable with them.

He was the only human in their little trio, and he was sure that came with its own baggage beyond being the one the other two had to protect when Mystic demon business came up, but he supposed what made him the real oddball was simply that he sucked at slowing down.

He couldn’t keep his mouth shut for long enough to enjoy someone’s presence quietly. Sun Wukong and Pigsy probably didn’t talk near as much when he wasn’t trying to drag them into conversations or playing ‘topic volleyball’. Just watching the two of them doing their own thing, probably long since knowing he was there but waiting for him to speak first, it was so obvious how quickly they’d gotten comfortable around eachother. How quick their relationship had been to run deep.

It had taken Tang five years to worm his way into Pigsy’s heart. Sun Wukong did it in five months, and he was starting to think it maybe was because he’d never learned how to take a quiet moment for what it was.

And then the silence was unbearable and Tang made a teasing remark, because he was probably incapable of anything else.

Pigsy huffed and puffed in that cute way he always does, Sun Wukong pulled away from him and went to lean against the opposite counter, the moment thoroughly ruined by his big mouth. Again.

Seemed like he was more annoying than he thought.

He wondered why the two of them even put up with him.

Send me stuff

Highschool AU

Based on the post one of the creators saying Macaque is basically a hot school bully.

Also every fandom needs a high school au.

Monkie kid Crew

Wukong is the popular jock who hates being around others. Dude is asocial as hell. Only hangs out with a select few by choice. A senior.

MK is a freshman! And sees Wukong as a role model. He is also popular but a lot more social then Sun though. Best friends with Mei who is also a freshman.

Mei is the popular peppy rich girl. I think it’s a nice twist on the popular rich mean girl trope. She’ll fight anyone she sees being mean to others, especially if their being mean to her friends.

Pigsy is a senior. Good at cooking classes. He’s put in charge of the lower classmen a lot and isn’t happy about it. He’s the school grump and doesn’t deal with bs from the freshman. MK and Mei being the exception. No one knows how they ended up being a soft spot for the pig, it’s a mystery.

Sandy is a senior. Super sweet and chill despite looking like he could kill you. Isn’t too popular cause of that. That’s ok though cause MK’s crew loves him! He always got some sort of snack on him and shared it with the crew. The counselor friend.

Tang is a Junior. Good at history classes. The ‘smart one’ of the group. Is usually calm and composed until he sees Wukong. Yep, he’s a Wukong fanboy (I saw the special you can’t convince me otherwise). Wukong avoids him at all cost.

The Demons

Gonna exclude DBK and Iron Fan from this. Let’s just say their neglectful parents and are never around.

Red Son is a sophomore. The big nerd of the school but no one messes with him cause he’s kinda crazy. Will kick your ass if you even try to pick on him.

Demon Bros are juniors. The pranksters. They pranked anyone and everyone at least once. Nothing too bad, their an annoyance at most. Their the people who ship their classmates together.

Spider Queen is a senior. Don’t fuck with her she’ll destroy you. A scary, hot, goth girl if you well. She’s somehow popular too. Probably a witch.

And finally, the one who kicked this AU off. Macaque is the hot school bully. A senior. He’s worse than the demon bros in his pranks. Starts fight and doesn’t show up for classes. How hasn’t he been expelled yet?

White Bone spirit. Idk what class to make her. The weird girl. Also might be a witch. Has beef with Wukong. 

I’ll probably post more about this AU later.

Fun/Not So Fun Facts of Mai and Yin Xiao Long

I did have a hilarious little thing planned with Mai and Yin just shooting horrible faunus related jokes at each other. BUT first I thought you’d guys would like to learn a little more about my babies. Which I will happily share with you all. Again if you have questions or points you’d like to point out. Message me or comment whichever works best for you. Some of these facts may or may not change as I continue to develop them. So enjoy ^^ --------------------------------------- 1. - Yin and Mai (Modern Times AU) love Panic! at the disco, Paramore, ect. 2. - Yin loves Salmon and Mai prefers Halibut both tend to argue over which is better all while insulting the others taste. 3. - Mai loves the water while Yin hates it with a passion. Needless to say visiting there grandparents is tiring when they have to try and drag one of there daughters (Yin) onto the boat. (And she puts up a fight every single time.) 4. - Mai and Yin both attain there own scars as they get older. Mai gets one on the bridge of her nose and Yin gets a part of her right ear torn both hate to admit they get very insecure afterwards. (Though how they get these scars I will not say yet.) 5. - The names Yin and Mai hate the most is Scarface (for Mai) and Hard of Hearing (For Yin) upon getting there scars this is sadly a nickname the two of them end up getting from some rather less then distasteful people. 6. - Yin and Mai are very competitive mostly against each other but half the time no one really wants to face them. Mai is what you'd call a rage gamer and Yin would be best described as a constant combo user. 7. - Yin was originally never going to exist but the idea of Mai having a twin just was too tempting to deny after a few weeks and since Yin's design was technically already done it was impossible for me not to put it to good use. (Thanks again Azerae ) 8. - Mai has a crush upon Keira Arc, and Yin loves to tease and mock her for it even go so far as to jokingly "threaten" her that she'd tell Miss Arc thus leading to some rather awkward fights. 9. - Needless to say Yin doesn't have crushes she more or less has interests. If you interest her she'll let you know when she gets older she tends to have flings but does want to have someone in her life at some point it's just a matter of finding that person. This does change later on though. (So don’t look too into this too much.)  10. - Yin and Mai also play instruments, Both of which enjoy playing Bass/Electric or Simple Guitar but they do sometimes play the drums though it's a rare occurrence they've found there passion more against plucking strings. 11. - On a side note Yin and Mai do tend to sneak off at night and do a little jam session with Jade and Onyx as well as a couple others. They often joke about running away and becoming an awesome kick ass band. But at least Junior lets them play at the club from time to time, in exchange there parents don't break anything. Inside joke?, maybe, maybe not. 12. - Due to them being half faunus and half human they tend to be a bit isolated by both humans and faunus. (Or at least those that represent hate towards humans/faunus) 13. - During there insecure phase Yin and Mai often wore hats or tukes to hide there ears. Often sometimes the two would even wear contacts because there red eyes would often come off as intimidating or terrifying. 14. - Mai's theme or song of choice is Ignorance is your new best friend by Paramore. Yin's theme or song of choice is Renegade by Paramore. During there insecure phase they loved the song New Perspective by Panic! at the disco. Mind you it's just the ones they like. They also go nuts over the song Emperor's new Clothes by Panic! at the disco. (Modern AU.) 15. - Yin is terrified of thunder storms. Hides under her bed, lays with Mai or her parents whenever they get bad. Mai on other hand is once again the opposite. She prefers to sit by the window and watch the lightning flash through the sky as well as the heavy rain. 16. - Yin and Mai are practical jokers and tend to have a rather dirty and dark sense of humor but they're also sometimes a bit too realistic in certain situations. Though tend to make and or crack jokes in serious situations. It's how they handle them best: hard times and even to break the ice when meeting new people. 17. - Yin and Mai happen to share a really close relationship with Ilia and Sun Wukong. Often calling them Aunt Illie and Uncle Sun though people find it a bit weird it doesn't seem to bother there parents too much though a lot of people tend to question Ilia and Sun which tends to get a bit irritating. (From Ilia's stand point anyway.) But despite popular belief Ilia has a soft spot for the little faunus children and refuses to tell them otherwise plus it's not like they'd listen either. 18. - Yin and Mai are horrible flirts. While Mai has standards and does know when to call it quits, But Yin on the other hand. Is much worse, she'll flirt with just about anyone who catches her attention. 19. - They do sometimes call Neptune there uncle as well. Though he is a major part of the reason these two flirt, while many assume Yang is the cause she's actually smartened up over the years due to Blake and her kids. 20. - When Yin and Mai we're younger and Sun couldn't watch them when asked, Neptune would offer to take them and use them as literal chick magnets. That is until Yang and Blake found out that ended rather quickly and needless to say Sun and Neptune never spoke of it much afterwards. 21. - During original creations when Mai was an only child she'd spend a lot of her time with uncle Sun and Uncle Neptune as a way to get away from her parents overprotective nature. 22. - During original creations when I first brought Yin into the picture she was intended to die at birth or so she was said to be but was taken in by Raven and raised. She wasn't evil but she wasn't exactly kind either she had an even darker sense of humor and moral value then she does now. 23. - Mai is a climber, it's something she had gotten use to doing while being watched by Sun, where as Yin just enjoyed tormenting the poor faunus by disappearing and leaving clones in her wake, Mai enjoyed scaring the hell out of him by climbing trees or anything she could get a good grip on. Needless to say the first time Mai climbed a tree her parents nearly had a heart attack. 24. - Mai and Yin tend to make puns more towards Sun who is a literal Monkey's uncle and they never let him forget it. It's now a joke Yang enjoys using too. Even Blake gets a little involved in the joke despite Sun's constant begging to stop. 25. - Raven constantly watches Yin and Mai, After a few years only ones who notices are Great Uncle Qrow, Yang and Yin. Mai is oblivious or just doesn't entirely care. That's still up for debate. 26. - Unlike Lillie and Lotus, Mai and Yin's personalities are a bit too much alike that it causes them to often clash and/or fight. Whether with others or each other is debatable depending on the situation. 27. - Despite popular belief Mai and Yin aren't entirely fond of sushi. They don't hate it but they could go with out it if they wanted raw fish they'd catch it themselves. 28. - Whenever visiting there grandparents (Grandpa Ghira and Grandma Kali) things tend to get really out of hand with Yin and Mai. There are a few faunus rivals/enemies/bullies who like to taunt the two sisters and tend to make them try to prove themselves which involves them nearly getting hurt. They want to prove themselves that they are no different then any other faunus and it bugs them that some even if it's just a few don't see Mai or Yin as what they are. Even with there grandfather being a chief of the island it doesn't always stop the taunts and mockery the two have to endure. 29. - Yin and Mai both suffer from a mental illness as they get older, Both have been confirmed to suffer from both depression and heavy anxiety. It only gets worse when the two are divided for a long period of time. They use each other as an emotional crutch so to speak it does get better a bit as they get older but whether that's due to medication or coming up with new methods on how to handle it is unknown. (This is a possible Fact I may or may not keep I’ll let fans decide)  30. - Yin may also be bi-polar but that is also unknown. Mai possibly might also have claustrophobia but right now it's also unknown (Debating on both of those last ones. Though Mai's is more likely due to her history. ) 31. - Yin actually does have a crush. It's a secret she keeps to herself. Her crush is on a young woman by the name of Aquarius Vasilias. The child of Sun Wukong and Neptune Vasilias. (They used a surrogate before people freak out I have an idea as of who but I also just bought her recently so yeah kind of a last minute addition.) 32. - Yin might hate water but she makes an acception for Aqua still won't go near it but she'll at least watch at a distance. 33. - The reason why Yin doesn't tell anyone about this crush is kinda obvious. She knows her sister, her mom and even her uncles will mock the hell out of her. 34. - Mai has her own secret of course one she only shares with Keira. When they're alone she lets Keira rub her ears something she rarely lets anyone do aside from her parents. She doesn't let Yin near them though and vice versa. 35. - Both Yin and Mai gain there scars due to a form of discriminatory nature. It is slightly different though a mentioned before though it is not from humans they gain these scars but of other Faunus who believe they do not deserve to even be labelled as such. 36. - Mai and Yin don't hate dogs well they hate one but there reasoning behind it is more then understandable. PLUS NEW FACTS:  37. Mai and Yin’s relationship with Ruby is a well hyper one I guess you can say. Ruby is the type to kind of encourage them to be more free willed while it does often backfire on all of them they normally have a lot of fun with Auntie Ruby.  38. Mai and Yin’s relationship with Weiss is about as good as you can expect. They enjoy watching there mom mock the heck outta her when she’s around. Though they will admit that she can be a bit terrifying when her cold exterior comes into play. 39. Yin and Mai fear many things and many people. They have a list from people they fear the most to the least.  40. On the top of that list is actually a good friend known as Pepper, and they have a list of reasons not to piss her off. Bottom of the list is Jaune. Yes even he has a hard time striking fear into these girls even as he gets older and very protective of his own. (If you wish to know the whole list again comment or message and I will post it up some day.)  41. Yin and Mai’s favorite target to mock is there cousin Crystal. She is the easiest to piss off but they sometimes tend to go a bit too far and find themselves frozen from time to time. 42. Grandpa Tai is another they visit often. While Yin doesn’t exactly feel very close to him, Mai tends to get along with him rather well.  43. While it isn’t intentional with Yin looking so much like Raven the whole situation between Yin and Tai kinda distances them and she doesn’t find out why until she’s around the age of fourteen.  44. Mai and Yin both have nicknames for there crushes. For Mai she has a habit of calling Keira either Arc Angel or Warrior Princess neither of which she is very fond of but lets it slide. For Yin she tends to sometimes call Aqua, High Tide or Riptide simply because of her love for the water. Unlike Keira, Aqua does not mind these nicknames. --------------------------------------- A lot of these facts are up for debate. Pick a favorite, or even go in deeper I would love to hear some fans ideas as to how to improve or add more to it. If you want to know some facts about my other Oc’s feel free to ask or message. 

yooo i wanna know more about what Macaque is like in your SwapAU

Macaque is way more taken by jttw than LMK.

Macaque was like the "evil twin" and still is for this AU, but it's driven by jealousy.

macaque just saw this guy who literally looks like he doesn't shower and somehow he's popular? has powers? Money? Dude.

I want that.

So he started his stupid little plans.

Which are kinda gacha cliche, the whole "disguising" as the target and spreading dumb rumors by doing bad things. The problem is that it never works, so now they are stuck in being called "the twins", where one is the good one (sun wukong) and the other is the evil one (macaque)

technically his name is Liu eir (or how you spell his name in Chinese, i forgot 😭 i always call him macaque)

but everyone calls him mac, because wukong always calls him names like "microphone" or "macaroni"

Macaque dosen't go as far as hurting physically people, he does manipulate and lie though. He often gets in wukong way and picks a fight with him.

the only problem is, that he himself has no powers.

unlike wukong, who got powers from MK, macaque has no powers.

He's a simple human.

So what does he do? Machines. like red son, that creates machines and robots. y'know, killing machines. Just to get on wukong way.

Of course shadow themed

It started all as jealousy, then it turned into hatred and aggressiveness.

He got so obsessed that now he can't do anything else but try and kill sun wukong, so he can take his place.

He probably went through a bunch of stuff such as bullying, rejection by everyone and other stuff that made him crave so much popularity and fame, and he pick up the guy who had that, he wanted that and since he knew that wukong couldn't just give it to him, macaque had to take it himself.

It started as rumors and general bullying towards wukong, and it ended with obsession and attempts murder.

He needs someone who loves him.
