#darkhorse duo

So, @twinklecupcake pointed out that the training Mei and Mac do in Cursed AU might have been started differently now.

And she's right

Oodles and Oodles of Macaca Doodles!!!

[chroniccomplainerlol]

Really unpopular opinion that arose after rewatching season 3 and 4 of LMK, but it annoys me to no end that Macaque barely did anything to improve (hasn't even apologized to MK lol) and basically got no consequences for his actions and yet he still got his redemption served to him on a silver platter.

Not to mention how much the fandom sugarcoats what he did, but I can't really blame them because the show is kinda doing it by itself considering the other characters' reactions. Like, you mean to tell me that Mei, of all people, would gladly fight side by side with Macaque?

Actually, why is the entire group so… casual around him as if they didn't watch the mf beat the shit out of MK right in front of them?

Highlight to Mei and Pigsy cause they are the first ones to call out Wukong about his mistakes, and them doing that while also giving Macaque a pass after everything he did to them makes no sense.

And it annoys me even more because there were villains/antagonists who could have easily had a redemption arc but got killed off instead.

Also the same thing happened with the Demon Bull Family: They hurt and tried to kill MK and many lives were at risk because of them, but guess what? No consequences lmao they're all besties now.

On the "least fav" one, I just mean that yes, Freenoodles is part of my "favorites roster" but on that roster, it is the lowest.

The fanart pieces in this are NOT mine

Mei getting arrested

Macaque: Hey, your honor, I object! Judge: On what grounds? Macaque: On the grounds of China Mei: *wheeze*

Scares u with lesbian shadowpeach & darkhorse duo

and the full thing!

[calcitebunny]

Ok so, Darkhorse duo might just be one of my favourite things. They live rent-free in my head.

Anyway… look at Mac not expecting Mei… just look at it…

Just chaotically unprepared…

EY! HAP BORTH!

:DD

HAVE A DARKHORSE DUO DOOD I MADE IN A MOVING CAR

[pine-rhyme]

Macaque dump! Macaque dump! I love this disaster of a monkey man!!!

[winterpower98]

I'm stuck in a car for two and a halfe hours.

You don't happen to have some fun/wholesome and/or angsty Cursed AU chaos trio/precious shade stuff that you can share with me, do you?

Becouse I feel like I'm slowly dying of boredome here xD

~*~

Long car rides suck, I feel that

I have a weird and kinda funny moment where the chaos trio ended up in a talent show and Jin and Yin insisted on participating and Mei just went along with them.

The twins tried to act (poorly) while Mei played the guzheng.

They didn't win, obviously, but the twins were surprised that their little sister could play that instrument. And they become quite confused when they retell what happened to Macaque and the monkey demon seems to pause for a second.

A different time, Mei went on a date with Red and both metal twins and Macaque went after them in secret to keep an eye on the fire demon.

They then accidentally bumped into each other, reprimanded each other before going back to follow the couple. All while trying not to interfere with the couple

UNRELATED TO ALL OF THIS but I found out that Mei and Mac's duo name is DarkHorse and I can't handle that

[bismuthfool]

i couldn't stop thinking about it. name of their duet automatically brings up the Katy Perry song in my head. i couldn't resist.

by the way, these costumes are difficult to draw... um. well.

[boonalina]

is your Successor au inspired by @kyri45 's Bio Dads au? when I read it I noticed some similarities. BTW no hate if it is! it's completely fine if it's inspired!

or well, I guess the only similarity is the fact that in both the aus, Wukong and Macaque are somehow Mk's biological parents.

Ehh... no and yes..

No because: me and a lot of older fans were already thinking for a while that Mk had a lot of similarities to Wukong and Macaque. Mk being shadowpeach's kid has been a head-canon since WAY before the Bio Dads au was even a thing. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love kyri's au, but let's be real here, they're definitely not the first person to create that head-canon, and they probably know that too.

-

Yes because: I did already head-canon the "Mk being their kid" before reading kyri's comic, HOWEVER, it was indeed their comic that inspired that part of my Successor AU. ('That part' being that they're his biological parents in my AU as well.) But for the most part, my AU is very much different from kyri's.

Cuz I mean, like you said, "the only similarity is the fact that in both the aus, Wukong and Macaque are somehow Mk's biological parents." Well.. that and the spicynoodles aspect.

-

But like, if I were to do a Venn-diagram of the similarities and differences between the Bio Dads AU and my Successor AU, the similarities would literally just be:

>Wukong and Macaque are Mk's biological parents >There are spicynoodles implications

And then the differences would be too much to count. I mean, for starters, they don't even take place in the same timeline. Kyri's takes place in the modern time while mine takes place in ancient times. But the plots overall are just completely different lol.

-

I mean truthfully, my AU is a lot more inspired by the Yandere Wukong AU by @lopsushi . A lot more similar than the Bio Dads one but still very different. I saw their AU and thought "Hey, I like shadowpeach, I also like possessive Wukong. But I also really enjoy the DarkHorse duo.. Hmm what do to.. Oh I know! I'll combine all the head-canons I like into my own AU!"

(And yes, I will admit that the wrist circlets in my Successor AU were a bit inspired by the neck circlet that Macaque wears in the Yandere AU.)

-

It was also a bit inspired by the Coldest Winter AU, what with Wukong hunting down and searching for Macaque. But I'm pretty sure Coldest Winter isn't even a shadowpeach AU lol.

-

ANYWAY!! Sorry for the rambling and the long answer! I've actually had some paranoia that people would think I copied other AU's so I'm glad I get to air this out finally. Just remember people, being inspired by something is NOT the same as copying.

You wouldn't look at The Owl House and say "hey! You copied Harry Potter!" now would you? No, of course not. You would say "Hey, I can tell this is inspired by Harry Potter."

Thanks for taking the time to read.

Feeling a little burnt out ngl, I’ve been figuring out a new style to do comics in so I can make them faster and studying a bunch, it’s taking up some energy haha
