Tallulah's model has been updated!

She now has black hair and a purple hat! This is reflected in Phil's emotes too.

When Yuebei wad born, Wukong most CERTAINLY went into a medical coma as well. Like, no joke... in Century Egg au, Wukong had gone into labor with potentially he best case scenario and still almost died... wit Yuebai in Slowboiled we've got a Wukong who's been several centuries overdue, had his magic literally running on empty during time, the moment he gets even somewhat decent he then gets strapped to a web and used as a battery, only to then have a madrush that took at minimum the better part of a month and was most likely more to find a weapon, then his powers were fucking short circuited in a magic barrier and then drained even more. Another madrush this time being pushed by his own deceased mate who he is fairly certain hates him and wants him dead, burned by Samhadi Fire, fought an ice with, and then possessed by said ice witch and forced to be used as a weapon against his own troupe, his own adopted cub and mate included. And only AFTER all that he ended up going into labor in some random campsight xD

Thats a good point to bring up.

Another major distinction is that Yuebei (SlowBoiled) was present for many of Wukong's experiences along the Journey, and literally ate the entire soul of ancient being just before she was born. Wukong likely only survives birthing Yuebei because she fully consumed another being's dao (LBD) instead of his own.

And even with Macaque at his side at last, Wukong is still running on empty once the Egg is born. Yuebei is probably still hangs out in her shell for a while before hatching from all the physical/mental stress her parent just went through.

In the meantime, Wukong has disconnected from the chat and has to do a major recharge before he can start waking up again. It really scares the gang at first, but Guanyin manages to soothe their worries that Wukong's physical reaction is super normal given the circumstances.

He just eepy, give him a few minutes days.

MK: "What about the egg itself? Does it take super long to hatch?" Guanyin (honestly doesn't know): "I'll... get back to you on that." Macaque, ears fluttering happily: "Don't worry. Cub's ok for now, she's just being lazy." MK: "How can you tell?" Macaque: *points at his ears and then to the Egg, smiling wide* "She snores like Wukong does." Yuebei, safetly in Egg: *tiny snoring sounds*

It's also part of the reason Macaque is super cuddly of Wukong before and after the Egg arrives. Stone Monkey instincts tell him to provide as much warmth and emotional support as possible to his mate and his immediate troop members.

Macaque would even sacrifice his own life energy/dao to ensure Wukong survives Yuebei's arrival.

If Guanyin didn't point out something super off about his own body.

Guanyin, doing a check-up on Wukong: "Liu'er Mihou - when where you buried?" Macaque, confused: "Buried? The heck you talking about? When I died I'm pretty sure my whole body got dragged into the Underworld." Guanyin, eyes widening: "Oh-no." Macaque: "What oh-no?" Guanyin: *performs a small spell on Macaque's stomach. Two distinct egg-shaped silhouettes appear* Macaque: *struck silent* Guanyin: "It appears that the Lady Bone Demon physically taking you into her Realm, and likely beneath the earth, caused your body to respond in the same manner as Wukong's when he was buried by the Buddha's hand." Macaque: *pokes stomach* "...why is there two?" Wukong, groggily after days of medical coma: "Two what??" Macaque & Guanyin: *shrieks of joy!*

Yuebei hatches shortly thereafter, causing greater celebration amongst the little troop. Macaque decides to tackle his problem later.

have another eepy lil theory. A long while ago (like probably back around june or july?) pomme said one of her favorite headcanons about bad was that he had shapeshifting powers but probably shrunk himself down to not scare the eggs.

was thinkin abt that tonight and just how what if not only bad's looking worse with the blue and stuff but he's also just slowly growing taller because whats the point to make urself look nonthreatening when the people you're trying to look nonthreatening to is gone

sorry just the thought of bad slowly beginning to tower over his friends amuses me especially if it happens so slowly they don't really notice it. go from 5 ft tall to 9 ft tall with this one neat trick!

Okay, So that you can get that OC Talk impulse out while I'm too eepy to fully engag....That Ask Meme for Sabryel and Sebylen: 2, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, and 20

2. What are your OC’s food preferences (flavors/textures/spiciness/calories/ when and how they eat) and how did they get that way?

Sabryel: he absolutely loves spicy food. it also eats a ton of meat and eggs and high protein meals in general. they have a very strict meal plan focused around their exercise regimen that is focused around being as nutritionally complete as possible to keep them in top physical condition.

Sebylen: tbh they are kind of a "try anything once" type, and will eat even obviously gross stuff if it would make for a funny story or were dared by someone who said they wouldn't do it. sebylen enjoys a lot of the home cooked recipes their parents made for them the most, but they're not really a super picky eater.

6. What would STOP your OC from Doing The Right Thing in a tense situation?

Sabryel: i feel like that HEAVILY depends on what Doing The Right Thing is for a given situation. the easiest sort of answer for this would be a situation where sabryel involving himself in a physical conflict would be an objectively bad idea, but their impulse control around fighting is JUST bad enough that they'd likely do it anyway if it thought it could solve the problem with its fists.

Sebylen: sebylen is VERY committed to their morals overall so really the only thing that would stop them from doing the right thing is if someone successfully convinced them that not doing that thing was ACTUALLY the right thing to do. otherwise it would be a fucking struggle to stop them from being the fucking hero.

8. If your OC had to take the S.A.T. tomorrow with one night to prep, how would they do? both emotionally and academically.

Sabryel: he would probably do some decent prep and score in a middle-of-the-road range. they don't have a whole lot of academic smarts but it's also not what i would call stupid either.

Sebylen: they would not study at all and would ace any sections focused on reading/writing but bomb anything else. as for the emotional effect, i can't see it upsetting them all that much.

9. What would cause your OC to chose to do something petty/pointlessly cruel?

Sabryel: he can be petty at times, but it takes a lot to get him to be genuinely cruel to someone outside of a fight. you'd have to seriously hurt someone it cared about to get it to be overly nasty to you.

Sebylen: relatively simple answer here. if sebylen perceives someone as The Villain of a situation, they feel 100% justified in being as shitty to that person as they can get away with.

11. What song is 100% garunteed to get your OC beyond turnt and will be sung loudly and emabarrasingly, either in public or the shower?

Sabryel: sabryel has an extensive workout playlist of ONLY songs that get him turnt as fuck specifically so he can work out at maximum intensity. they'd only really sing loudly and embarrassingly if drunk though.

Sebylen: sebylen knows tons of songs from their theater days that they'll sing at any given opportunity.

12. What perfectly-normal-to-them-thing does your OC do that confuses/pisses off/terrifies thier neighbors?

Sabryel: the parties it throws on a regular basis definitely have a habit of pissing off the neighbors. sabryel's guard construct definitely also creeps his neighbors out.

Sebylen: loud music all the time constantly.

13. Under what circumstances would your OC appear naked in public?

Sabryel: maybe for some kind of kink event they'd be willing to do that, but they would not do so without some kind of magic object to hide their face, hair, and wings.

Sebylen: could definitely see them getting naked in public if REALLY intoxicated.

17. How does your OC sabotage themselves?

Sabryel: tbh out of all the main characters of TSiP, sabryel is the LEAST likely to self-sabotage overall. the main way that he does self-sabotage in the story is by convincing himself that he's peaked and there's no more progress to be made.

Sebylen: sebylen's main self-sabotage is via the way they see everything as a story with heroes and villains. if they cannot make something fit into their life's ongoing narrative, they will just not do it, even if it would be an objectively good idea.

18. What’s the trashiest item in your OC’s wardrobe, when was the last time they wore it and why do they still have it?

Sabryel: i feel like sabryel has some shitty meme shirts that are overly vulgar and sexual that they only wear for a bit at parties. they don't wear the shit out in public outside of that, though, but since they have frequent parties they still wear those shitty shirts and occasionally comical booty shorts semi-regularly

Sebylen: i feel like sebylen doesn't currently have anything really "trashy" in their wardrobe.

20. What’s your OC smell like? no, not that “Vanilla and Anxiety” evocative stuff, realistically. Body odor? what have they been touching all day? When was thier last shower? Did they put on any kind of artificial scent?

Sabryel: sabryel definitely uses the ledaveth equivalent of axe body spray. they don't usually have body odor though, since they are very stringent about their bathing schedule.

Sebylen: this fucker definitely wears perfumes to cover up body odor. now that they're working as an adventurer they don't get to bathe as often so they're constantly covering up the sweat stink with floral scents as if that helps at all.
