#sun wukong angst

the true horror of Sun Wukong at the beginning of the journey was his complete lack of empathy. He could kill hundreds in the blink of an eye and not feel a thing for them. That’s why he needed the golden fillet, To make him feel what his victims felt.
And yet it didn’t work. Sun Wukong kept killing until he had to fight his biggest enemy, himself
The Six Eared Macaque represented his hostility, his lack of empathy, his malice. He was the part of Sun Wukong that wanted to get revenge on his master for banishing him from the journey, the part that thought he did nothing wrong and didn’t deserve punishment.
When he looked at the Six eared Macaque he realized that he didn’t want to be that person . so when he killed macaque he killed that part of himself and he went back on the journey, this time much more willing to change.

Chained King Au :
Kind of influence by one of @rebeltigera art that I’ll repost after I post this.
When Tripitaka is given the circlet, to make sure that Wukong doesn’t cause any trouble the Jade Emperor places a curse on it that along with tightening and causing migraines it subtly influences how Wukong see’s and interacts with those around him and slowly starts to change him. Originally it didn’t cause that much damage until Macaque tried to intervene and kill Tripitaka and the pilgrims did it rear it influence.
Anything Macaque tried to say to him to get him back was wrapped into something else and the circles influence aka the voices were crushing against Wukong until he couldn’t tell right from wrong and scummed from the pain. This lead to the circlet taking over and causing so much confusion and anger that he kills Macaque. Wukong wakes up and seeing his moons blood all over him and hearing his screams bounce around his head causes him to have a breakdown and loosen the circlet influence on him. He’s crying, screaming and his qi is leaking out of him and attacking/ destroying anything that comes near him and his moon. One of this blast hit Tripitaka and that’s when the Jade Emperor intervenes and summons Wukong to heaven leaving Macaque body there. Once in heaven Wukong goes to attack his is subdued by the circlet and is then chained up using golden chains from Guanyin and Buddha.
What happened next was just a series of bad events and his qi ‘attacking’ Tripitaka was the last straw. No one is in the room to see this happen other then the two which works wonders for the Jade Emperor. During one of his attacks against heaven the Jade Emperor got his hands on one of Wukongs clone and slowly took control of it. He summons the clone and talks about how he has ‘tamed’ the ‘Monkey King’ thus making him more of heavens puppet. He gives life to the clone and seals Wukong inside of the clones mind still trapped but his qi being siphoned out of him to make the ‘clone’ seem more real. Wukong has no say in this and is now left ‘rotting’ inside of his clone essentially watching it becomes him and no one realise that something is wrong.
Everting else is the same until the end of season 4 where Azure is trying to fix the universe he finds some of the previous Jade Emperors power of to the side and hidden from anyone trying to look. Since he’s using everything to fix the universe he destroys the seal and siphons off the magic to help him, this unknowingly free’s Wukong who has been the one to receive all the wounds and damage that the clone got. The seal breaks but due to how long it has been running for and how Wukong has become it doesn’t immediately fall apart. It’s takes a couple of days and a week later when the whole group ( and those who have been freed) all reconverge at FFM it shatters.
This has everyone starting at a very bloodied and bruised Wukong who’s sitting on his knees holding the broken remains of the circlet in his hands. Everyone freaks the fuck out and Wukong passes out from all the wounds leaving them all with more questions then they all needed.
Little things needed to know for after :
While Wukong is very strong in qi he hasn’t used his muscles that much in the void so he has to relearn how to use his hands and legs.
Doesn’t take him long to relearn but now has spasms that leave him without use of his arms nor legs for a couple of hours.
Has migraines from the circlet that leave him incapable of moving from where his is.
Will something claw at his head thinking the circlet is still there, along with his arms due to the chains being wrapped around them.
Dissociates a lot due to being in the void for too long. Having Macaque around helps as he uses the shadows to act like a weighted blanket.
Sometimes forgets that he’s free and still trapped and emerging is not real. This leaves to him just lying in bed not realising how much time has passed. Ends up waking up with Mk, Macaque and the monkeys from FFM curled around him.
Attaches himself to mk gang immediately as they only knew him after the swap and thus does not have underlined anger towards them for not realising that something is different.
Surprisingly Macaque is only allowed to be close to him if only someone (Mk or Mei) is around as the beginning as even though he loves Macaque things are very tense between the two. It changes over the following months as Macaque is the only one ( other then nezha) from his past who is allowed near him.
After they make up Macaque is very protective and acts like a guard dog to anyone who he deems unworthy.
Wuskong acts like he hates it but secretly loves it
Doesn’t know how to act around DBK and PIF. It’s complicated
Knows that tang is different from Tripitaka bus sometimes relapses and can’t be around him. Tang understands
Sees mk as his cub ( could be )
Very protective over the traffic light trio.
Nezha and him act like siblings who have been separated and reunited later.
Macaque lives in his shadow most of this time. Wukong finds this adorable.

Reflections
You wander around. Going from place to place. Until eventually you find a puddle.
You look in.
There sits a baby monkey.
You.
You are small you realize, as all babies are. Smaller than most maybe. But most weren’t born from rock and shooting lasers from their eyes as you were.
You guess that makes you special.
You like that.
-
You are alone now. Your subjects are somewhere you assume. There’s water nearby.
You look in.
You look the same. But older. Still handsome as always. Maybe a lot bigger than before though.
Your eyes are still the same gold, and your fur is still the orange that glows in the sun.
You find that you're still special after all these years.
You like that.
-
You were kicked out after you were caught gloating. But that’s ok. You don’t need friends. Or a master.
You are just fine.
You were lost in thought and found yourself near water again. Deciding to lift your spirits…
You look in.
You're still the same. Golden eyes, Orange fur, Devilishly handsome. Still small though.
Bigger than your subjects. Smaller than those humans you studied with. Smaller than…your master.
You shake your head. Don’t think about them. This is about you, not those dumb humans.
You look again.
You're still special. Even if you got kicked out. Even if those dumb humans didn’t realize as such. You know yourself. They couldn’t hope to compare to you.
You’re still special.
You love that.
-
You're back home again. Not for long though. You have to show a certain little emperor his place. For treating you less than you’re worth.
You notice your near water, and decide that you need just one more check before the battle.
You look in.
Still the same old same old. Devilishly handsome, Golden eye and Orange fur.
Oh? Are you a bit taller now? You think you are. Though you're not really sure.
Eh, it doesn’t matter anyway.
You're still special. You know that. Most don’t terrorise the dragon king for a weapon. Most also don’t erase their name from the book of death.
Wait… Would that make you double- no triple special?
You grin. Deciding that…
You like yourself a lot more now.
-
“Stupid dumb buddha..and stupid dumb jade emperor.” You grumble under your breath.
You're stuck. As you were for a while now. Under this dumb mountain that buddha guy put you under.
Something hits your head. You look up, expecting it to be another of those stupid mountain spirits. Only to find…rain?
You dislike the rain. But it’s more welcome than the other things that came by you before. You notice a puddle forming near. Not a big one. But not a small one either.
Realizing you haven’t looked at yourself in a while. You decide to move what little of your body you can to get a proper look and…
You look in.
You’re…different, than you were last time. Your eyes aren’t golden, but instead a blood red. Your fur isn’t orange but scorched black in most places from what you could see. Your upper body is full of golden scars.
You look like a monster.
No, that's not right. You can't look like-like this.
You’re supposed to be special and perfect.
This is-no it has to be a joke.
You blink. Your reflection stays the same. You blink again. It’s still the same. You blink and blink and blinkandblinkandblinkanblink-
No matter how many times you blink. Your reflection stays the face.
You feel something forgien to you well up in your eyes as they go blurry. Feeling something wet on your cheeks. You look at the puddle.
Ah. You're crying.
You’re not supposed to cry though. Special people don’t cry. But special people don’t look how you do either.
You turn your head away from the puddle. Hoping to escape your reflection as tears run down your cheeks.
Maybe you're not as special as you made yourself out to be.
-
You're sitting behind a rock. Nursing a headache from when that monk –Tripitaka if you remember correctly– Used that dumb incantation on you.
Looking up from your nursing. You see a river. You then realise you haven’t looked at yourself in a while. You're hesitant after what happened last time but… You find yourself walking over, plopping down, and then…
You look in.
You barely repress a flinch from what you see. Black scorch marks and scars all over your fur, still blood red eyes, and that dumb circlet that monk put on you.
You don’t like how you look anymore. You're not special. You still look like a monster.
Then you remember something. Something some demon used to hide himself…Glamours right? Yea maybe you could try those.
You get to work.
Your scars are gone now, so are the scorch marks. Your fur is once again that same beautiful orange and your eyes that same shade of gold.
You like this version of you more. You're special again.
-
(Major fucking timeskip here cause I don’t have much motivation to write all that)
-
You stumble into your home. The chill from the battle still in your bones. You can still feel her your under skin. Taunting you.
In your mindless stumbling you find yourself in front of a mirror…again.
You look at your reflection and…oh, that’s not good. Your glamors are off.
You take in your appearance.
Black scorch marks, golden scars, blood red eyes, no circlet though. Squinting your eyes you notice something. A speck of white in your hair.
Something in your stomach drops.
Now you look more like a monster than ever.
You realize you were never special. You only deluded yourself into thinking so. You were always just a monster.
You hurt so many people and for what? Validation? Recognition? Joy? Look where that got you. Everything you touch is destroyed because of you.
Everyone you love is destined to hate or be destroyed by your hands.
You're not special.
You never were.
You're just some egotistical monster that everyone is bound to hate.
You’re crying again. Monsters don’t cry. So maybe your aren’t a monster.
But if so…then what are you?

Thinking about how ironic it must have felt when Sun Wukong (translated to monkey who sees through the void) realized he had truth sight after the furnace.
I wonder if he hated his name for being a prophecy of one of his darkest moments (the furnace) or questioned if his former master knew this would happen. or maybe he had a new appreciation for his name and how it connected to his very soul

Me being a terrible person to my fav people I latch onto in a fandom:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Self-Imprisonment(terrible name I know lol)
So after LBD’s defeat, wukong locks himself up in a small little room with chains on his arms and neck that doesn’t let him move much, he also has a blindfold over his eyes so he can’t see shit.(also he’s touch-starved and has claustrophobia because look at him and tell me he doesn’t)He did this to himself because he believes its what he deserves after what he put mk and his friends through. So in the time he’s trapped there, he basically gaslights and guilt trips himself and like tries to escape into his memories and goes through the good ones for a while, but then later thinks he doesn’t deserve to have such good memories and keeps falling back to the bad ones, like his time spent under the mountain or the heavenly furnace and since he can’t see it feels like he’s physically there when he isn’t. So he’s just very mentally unstable and not in a good place rn-.
So he’s just constantly lowering himself down and reliving his trauma, and during this time LBD made a come back and found wukong(cause of plot), sees the state wukong is this and went: Hey I can fucking use this. Then manipulates him and makes him even more mentally unstable. Also(because I’m evil as fuck) she somehow found the circlet from JTTW and just places it on wukong and victim blames his and makes it so he thinks its his fault whenever she had to use it. And I’m also gonna make it so she uses his touch-starvedness as a reward system, like when he makes her happy or do what she wants, she would give him a head pat, hugs and stuff, but only for a few seconds cause I’m evil like that. or maybe a full minute idk.
So I’m gonna make LBD have some actual feelings for wukong, like protectiveness since he’s her host and also because she spent a while molding him into what she deems perfect via trauma. So occasionally she would let him rest his head in her lap, or sit in her lap while she just strokes through through his burnt fur. Which would make wukong(While she didn’t actually mean too this time) become more dependent on her and her touch, and then she decides to also use this cause it works and barely takes any effort lol.
Sun wukong in this au reaches up to mk’s chest(cause I just like the idea of him being small), and he doesn’t even know its LBD since he can’t see shit and forgot things since he relived his trauma over and over again. Also i’m going to make him get panic attacks whenever his blindfold comes off cause again, i’m evil like that.
