Damene på toppen

Om lag midt mellom byene Kampong Thom og Kampong Cham ligger en interessant tempelduo: Phnom Srey og Phnom Bros. Eller, kvinnehøyden og mannshøyden.

Disse to ligger vakkert til ved siden av veien mellom disse to byene nord for Phnom Penh.

Den laveste og største høyden har et par praktfulle hvite templer, en stor vernestatue av en demiguddom og mindre altere og åndehus. I tillegg kommer et buddhistkloster.

Dette er Phnom Bros-tempelet. Rundt en kilometer i luftlinje nord for denne høyden, ligger Phnom Srey. Som inneholder et lite hvitt tempel, et par altere og en veldig fin utsikt til jordbruksland, skog og andre høyder i et småkupert terreng. Samt små sittebenker med plass til et par og kanskje en anstand.

Kørka menn og grepa kvinnfolk

Historien om disse to høydene handler sjølsagt om forholdet mellom menn og kvinner i khmer-kulturen. Den er i korthet at en gruppe menn utfordret en gruppe kvinner om privilegiet å kunne akseptere eller avslå et tilbud om ekteskap bare skulle ligge hos kvinnen og hennes familie.

For å avgjøre denne tvisten, så skulle begge grupper bygge den høyeste høyden gjennom en dags og en natts arbeid. Den som bygde høyest, ville vinne retten til å avgjøre et tilbud om ekteskap. Som en del av byggeprosjektet hos kvinnene ble det også bygd et digert bål, som de tente opp utpå natta.

Lyset fra dette bålet var så sterkt at mannegruppa trodde soloppgang var kommet, og de tok seg en lang pause på øret før konkurransen skulle avgjøres. Kvinnegruppa fortsatte sjølsagt høydebyggingen til sola rant for alvor. Og deres høyde ble også den den høyeste.

Derfor er det khmer-kvinner og deres familie som har det avgjørende ordet om et tilbud om ekteskap skal aksepteres eller ei. Også i dag.

Ikke lett adgang, sånn eller slik

Både omfang og poengtering av historien er litt avhengig av forteller og publikum. Er det et stort innslag av kvinner i en turistgruppe/besøkende, så poengteres det sjølsagt at historien viser at kvinner er smartere enn menn. Og det er snakk om en rettighet, ikke et privilegium.

Det skal også sies at romanse, kur, forlovelse og ekteskap er et omfattende prosjekt for de fleste khmer-familier. Som involverer hele familien fra tidlig i forholdet, og kan ta sin tid om alle tradisjoner, skikker og riter skal oppfylles. Den siste "forhandlingen" før et forslag om ekteskap aksepteres og en forlovelse inngåes, involverer for eksempel representanter for både familie og venner av begge parter. Og ordførende forhandler på vegne av khmer-kvinna er ofte en kvinne i hennes familie.

Det speiles også i adgangen til Phnom Srey-tempelhøyden.

Besøk til Phnom Bros er en enkel bilvei rett inn på en parkeringsplass innenfor tempelgjerdet. Adkomst til Phnom Srey er en delvis brolagt vei ned i et lite dalføre mellom Phnom Bros og Phnom Srey, og så 308 trappetrinn strak opp fra foten av høyden til toppen. Med pauseplasser lagt inn.

Jeg ble i sin tid fortalt at menn ikke kan besøke Phnom Srey som en gruppe, men vi kan gå aleine eller sammen med kvinner. Siden tempelet på toppen er åpen for offer til åndene for et godt forhold og et godt ekteskap, er det en type åndelig romantikk tilknyttet stedet.

Det er også mulig å bringe offer og bønner og be om hjelp til/innsikt i valg av livspartner.

Antagelig verdt å tråkke opp 308 trappetrinn for en god slik en.

Verdt et besøk

I tillegg til innsikten i og forståelsen av samlivsriter og kjønnsroller i khmer-kulturen, er dette tvillingkomplekset verdt et besøk også for en pause på reisen, eller en lunsj. Det er små boder som selger gatemat og drikke, og noen små kattefamilier som gjerne innynder seg for selskap.

Av og til vil også den lille munkekontigenten være tilstede. Av og til for prøve ut engelsken sin, eller for å utveksle en forbønn mot et offer til tempelet.

Og sjølsagt er det også de evinnelige maqacue-apekattene som gjerne har tilhold i templene i hele sør- og østasia. De er frekke, ikke bare snille og jakter konstant på mat. Som de fint kan finne på å stjele fra besøkende som ikke følger med.

Okay okay so i had a thought... what if,now hear me out, what if maqacue gives wukong energy even after he regains his powers just in case but in like small amounts that wukong doesnt notice. After a while wukong starts getting flu like symptoms and a horrible migraine. He goes to grip his head and just acidentally pulls a hair out and it turns into a cub... like what would the twins and adult monkeys think... how would they react... should i make an au of this.

macaque isnt even close to swk or lbds level of power, so he couldnt give swk an amount of power that would overload him.

the reason maqs magic made the twins is because he had too much power and he had to get rid of it, (and so his magic created the twins to get rid of the extra power) but swks body can handle infinite amounts of power bc hes sun wukong so he would never need to get rid of power in the same way

itd be definatly interesting if you did make an au of something like that, but if you do, id prefer it if you didn't just take mine and change/alter the story. (im sure you wouldnt have done that anyway, but you could make up your own world/plot/ versions of kids)

So this will be the explanation to my Au (I’m just posting this fic on here instead of wattpad so I can easilier produce chapter)

so first up, this is Au of a wattpad book of mine. This one: https://www.wattpad.com/1288972626-a-rat%27s-tale-lmk-x-reader-a-hero-is-born

go read it for some context about (Y/n) and another character because I won’t explaining it on here.

anyways. In this Au, the timeline is rearranged. Monkey king would go on “vacation” far earlier, leaving Mk alone. Maqacue appears, convincing Mk to join him. Leaving the others behind.

(Y/n) began working later than in the original fanfic, she began training with GNAR (golden nosed albino rat) after only being in china for a few months.

she began working at Pigsy’s after seeing a “help wanted” sign.

(Y/n) and mei’s & (Y/n) and Mk’s relationship will be very different.

recent change: Albino rat's relationship with Monkey King has changed (along with old allies of Monkey king)

I’ll probably be add some edits at different chapters

anyways, sorry if any of the characters are OOC

-bbbyyyyyeee ✨🔖

So maqacue decides to disguise himself as the monkey king to get to shan simce it didn't go so well with mk. He grooms her like with her father and he eventually steals shan's ability to heal herself and the power to steal life energy from others. So now, maqacue can HEAL HIMSELF now!!!! Shan gets the heck out of dodge and tells her dad what had happened and mk gets all protective daddy mode on maqacue. The king overhears this and decides to join the fight to avenge his little princess.

Lol oh yeah, I keep forgetting about Macaque in the Demon King Red AU. After Red disappeared, having been put in the calabash, Macaque definitely abandons the court. He’s not interested in the petty politics and power grabs that will accompany a king-less demon court... he could totally take it for himself, but he genuinely couldn’t give a shit about having power over other demons. He only ever wanted power over one person, and teaming up with King Red was just a means to achieve that. And it turns out it actually set him back a good ways too because Sun Wukong is furious at him for allying himself with the demon who was tormenting his successor. So Macaque probably makes himself scarce for awhile, plotting and waiting for the right moment to strike.

He probably hears when King Red makes a reappearance and goes to investigate, but spying in from afar he gets a pretty good sense of how much further unhinged this guy has become and decides there’s no way he’s getting back into that alliance again. It wasn’t even worth it the first time.

However, Shan’s arrival definitely seems like an interesting enough development for him to want to make another appearance. I could totally see him wanting to use her for his own purposes, and yeah if he can steal her power of copyig others’ powers in order to make HIS ability to steal others’ powers even stronger then hell yeah he’s gonna do that!

Obviously this doesn’t work out for him. Both MK and Demon King Red will have it out for him after he tries to hurt Shan. MK wouldn’t want him to, but Demon King Red totally would team up with him to fight Macaque in order to get Shan’s powers back.

Maqacue: Can't do math but can read a bit Wukong: Can't read but can do some math

macaque is an idiot who has to ask swk to check what 9+3 is bc hes brain blanking and swk asks macaque to check through all his poems and make sure the wording makes sense because his brain works in weird (ADHD) ways

(and this is just to clarify bc i think there might actually be some people that genuinly think swk cant read. hes literally the intelligent stone monkey and a god. he can fucking read my dudes dfhgfhgfh)

Ok lol, if I were to make a prediction for the maqacue meets red son comic, it becomes spicynoodleshipping with mk stealing a kiss from red son at the end and red just going absolutely insane in public and then in secret he actually liked it. This is just a prediction and I definitely don't expect you to say anything lol.

🙊

#ask #blog #lol im just gonna use this emoji to respond to comic predictions from now on #feel free to send them in #I’ll publish them but I’ll only respond like this XD
