Can I request Monkey King(2023)xFem stubborn reader?

So I was thinking a a make-out with some suggestive themes and maybe it leads to smut(the choice is really up to you if you’re feeling creative). Like lets say that Monkey King(Netflix) was being his usual self then something happens that causes him to like bump into Y/N or run into Y/N and corners her by accident. Then another thing happens and they end up kissing but MK doesn’t know how to handle something like this considering his past and his track record so he sorta takes it alot further and something awakens in him? If that makes sense? Idk why but part of me is thinking he’s into biting too IM SO SORRY FOR THIS! It can be headcanons or a whole oneshot whatever works best for you or you can do both if it ends up inspiring you more. I would be happy any way reading what you create.☺️

New Sensations (Monkey King (Netflix) x Fem! Stubborn! Reader)

(Anon, ngl, I need to the watch the movie again, but I did my best. Thank you very much for your support, and I hope your day is wonderful!)

Freedom was a wonderful things

Wukong thinks more people should try it in his honest opinion

Wukong understood mortality a lot more after his experiences with Lin and the rest of his friends, and he grew to want to understand humans more too

He learned a lot about humanity and their unique cultures and lives, he explored countless lands, returning home after discovering the small world around him

It was during his trip back that he bumped into you--literally

It was a simple mistake on your part, really, you tripped over yourself, trying to carry some heavy objects in your arms

Yet, here you were, being embraced by a rather short monkey man as your lips had briefly touched in both of your surprises

Monkey King was more shocked than you were, openly stammering and practically tossing your items back to you as he apologized over and over

You had to shut up him after a few second of watching the poor man try to explain what happened

Monkey King had never experienced a kiss before, especially not a surprise bump-into-someone's-lips kind of kiss

Yet the brief moment of electricity he felt, the way his heart raced as you two quickly pulled away--it was...new--something strange

He ended up treating you to a rather fancy restaurant, intent on learning more about you even if he did genuinely feel bad about the accident

You were feisty, Wukong noticed with a tingle of excitement

You denied his invitations to dinner rather stronger, and Wukong...just kept trying until you said yes

He was a pushy man, but Wukong was also prepared to go away the moment you told him to

In the end, he won his little game to your dismay

He also kept coming back to you, greeting you with his usual charm

You still held the kiss over his head if he got too bold which made him immediately lose any footing he had over you

Slowly, a small little game turned into a competition of two bull-headed individuals fighting over small things

Going out to eat? Buy groceries? Simply hanging out? Verbal fights were your go-to when it came to anything of the sort, seeing whose silver-tongue was sharper

Wukong was impressed to see that he met his equal in that regard and that attracted him further to you

When it came to Wukong realizing his feelings for you, that was the hard part

You two were at odds in every regard, and that included who made the biggest gesture of love

Where Wukong gave you gold and flowers, you gave him praise and compliments that had him ascending to the celestial realm

You got together without a single confession, but it worked

Romantically, Wukong's tongue became smoother, his charms being raised to max--he was still weak to being praised though, and while the accident no longer held any footing, a simple "good job" would have him reeling

To the outside world, you two were bitter frienemies, lashing out with sharp insults and witty banter

But, in the safety of your own privacy, sharp words became tender comfort and witty banter turned into playful arguments

You did learn that Wukong had a thing for biting throughout your relationship

If you won an argument easily, his counter argument was a nip on your shoulder or hand

If he won a game of wits, his prize would be him giving you a wonderful new mark to show who he claimed

He didn't like seeing you hurt, but having you decorated with his marks was pleasing to the eye

It seemed you--in your typical fashion--didn't give the satisfaction of showing how much secretly liked it as well, but Wukong is always ready to win his battles no matter what type

Mid-Year Freakout Book Tag

Best book you’ve read so far: Toss-up between This Thing Between Us by Gus Moreno (horror novel, explores grief of a spouse with some freaky elements of Mexican black magic/folklore) and North American Lake Monsters by Nathan Ballingrud (horror short story collection that explores the dangerous elements of masculinity)

Best sequel you’ve read so far: n/a, I don’t really read series

New release you haven’t read yet, but want to: The Violin Conspiracy by Brendan Slocumb (black prodigy inherits his great-grandfather’s violin, which is then stolen by the family that claimed to own his ancestor)

Most anticipated release for the second half of the year: The Sleepless by Victor Manibo (corporate espionage in a world where people can get a procedure to remove the need to sleep)

Biggest disappointment: The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson (it’s considered the prototypical haunted house story, but it just felt dated and unsatisfying to me)

Biggest surprise: The Bright Lands by John Fram (this murder mystery thriller had me by the fucking throat for the first three quarters of the book, then had the most whack twist ending that made me regret picking it up)

Favorite new author (debut or new to you): Gus Moreno, I’ll definitely pick up whatever he puts out next

Newest fictional crush: Travis from Then the Stars Fall by Brandon Witt (bisexual bear daddy? Sign me up)

Newest favorite character: Andrés from The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas (Catholic priest who was secretly trained in Mexican black magic and has to hide that knowledge from the Inquisition)

Book that made you cry: Comfort and Joy by Jim Grimsley (an adult coming-out story in that late 90′s window where the worst of the AIDS crisis had passed but before marriage equality/increased acceptance)

Book that made you happy: Kings of the Wyld by Nicholas Eames (retired adventuring party gets back together ‘one last job!’‘-style; lots of dumb humor, but in just the right way)

Favorite cover: Die a Little by Megan Abbott (noir novel set in 50′s L.A. following a sister who’s suspicious of the woman who seduced and married her brother in just a few weeks. This cover was perfect for hitting the tone of the book)

What you really need to read by the end of the year: The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu by Tom Lin (wild west revenge tale with an immigrant Chinese protagonist)

Het is veel leuker om te koken als je alleen thuis bent, want dan kan je kei vals meezingen met Hamilton. Damn, deze musical is gewoon zo goed en ja, ik ben nog steeds geïrriteerd dat Lin het heeft verkocht aan Disney, maar hierdoor kunnen mensen het wel makkelijker kijken.

Draag alleen geen witte jurk als je donkere saus gebruikt. Draag ook een witte jurk als je blauwe acrylverf gaat gebruiken. Ik ben een idioot. Ik wilde gewoon eventjes Barbara’s goedkope acryl gebruiken en ik dacht niet na.

Raad eens wie vandaag 4 uur heeft gespendeerd aan Animal Crossing? Ik! Ik had het impulsieve idee om een “rock garden” te maken en ik wist ook dat het heel lang ging duren. Eerst een plekje zoeken voor mijn stenen. En daarna mijn hele eiland ruïneren door overal shit neer te zetten. Dat kostte een uur.

Ja, ik ben nu verkleed als Genevieve van Barbie en de 12 dansende prinsessen, maar dan Aziatisch en met turquoise haar. Eindelijk een reden om mijn ballet schoenen te gebruiken.

Oh... en stonks. Niet 558 Bells zoals verwacht, maar nog steeds.... stonks.

Oh en ja die stenen? Dat kon rond de 6 tot 30 dagen duren om te doen. Dan maar tijdreizen. Ik heb nog nooit zitten tijdreizen in de 6 jaar dat ik dit spel speel, dus woah.

Ik ben dus heel veel heen en weer gegaan en het duurde heel lang (2 uur??) voordat ik eindelijk alle stenen goed had.

VINDICATION! 

En ha, lol, het is gelukt op “29 juni”. Het was shit werk, maar het was het waard. Ik moest ook nog alles opruimen, maar ik heb nu een rock garden. En nu wilt Knox verhuizen, dus hij kan er niet van genieten. 

Voordat je denkt dat dit weer een Animal Crossing post wordt: nope. Ik had geen echte geweldige plannen, maar toen kreeg ik een bericht van Cristina om ijs te komen eten met Sofia. Heck yeah.

Helaas reden de bussen weg voor mijn neus en een persoon nam de laatste city bike. Yay. Gelukkig kwamen twee andere fietsers aan na een paar minuten. Eenmaal in het centrum bleek het mega druk te zijn. Er was weer een protest. Ik was een beetje verbaasd, want het linkse anti-overheid protest is normaal op vrijdag. Blijkbaar was dit het rechtse nationalistische (pro-overheid?) protest. 

Oh ja. Er is dus veel politieke onrust in dit land, maar aangezien ik over een maand weg ga: “Politics, not my thing!”. Het was wel mega onrustig en er was ook mega veel politie en geschreeuw, maar ik keek erna en dacht: fuck dit. Er waren camera’s en nonnen en mensen met bloemen en ugh. Ik snap alleen niet waarom mensen zeggen dat ze tegen antifa (anti-facisme) zijn en daarna zeggen ze dat racisme slecht is. Juist.... facisme is slecht. Dus de ideologie dat facisme slecht is, is ook slecht. Ah. Politiek.

Dus ik keek er naar voor 10 hele seconden en toen liep ik naar de VIGÒ. Blijkbaar was dit dus een afscheid. Sofia heeft haar been gebroken, dus ze gaat volgende week al terug naar Spanje.

Ik denk dat de Vigò smaak de beste is en dan samen met de fruitige aardbeiensmaak is het een goede combinatie.

En toen zei Cristina iets interessants: de maskerplicht komt terug. Ik heb het net even opgezocht en het klopt. Aangezien ik nog steeds maskers droeg, verandert er niet veel. Ik had alleen geen masker op als ik ergens snel naar binnen ging, zoals snel een flesje Cola kopen voor 60 cent.

Ook is er weer quarantaineplicht vanuit Portugal en Albanië. Montenegro en Luxemburg zijn nu ook niet meer “veilig”, maar het is nog niet zo slecht als Albanië en Portugal. Ministers van Slovenië en Oostenrijk proberen om de grens open te houden.

Dat is dus de Corona update voor nu.

Oh, een ander ding: de Boni eindigt in juni. Dat wist ik niet. Oké, Cristina en Sofia waren niet zeker, maar het lijkt erop dat ik pa, ma en Lu niet de Boni kan laten zien. Hopelijk kunnen ze nog komen, want Corona... oh BOI.

Tijd om de Boni te gebruiken. Het was 20:38 en je kan Boni krijgen t/m 21:00, dus we gingen snel naar FANY & MARY. Het was mega druk en er waren maar drie obers, dus ik voelde me best wel slecht. We hadden Boni besteld, maar de ober was het waarschijnlijk totaal vergeten. We vroegen snel een ander om 20:55 en zei ook geïrriteerd: “Don’t come here 5 minutes before it ends!” en ja, daar zijn het mee eens. Dat is ook een shit iets om te doen, maar hey, we waren enigszins op tijd, dus dat vertelde we ook. Het was hun fout als we geen Boni konden krijgen. En alsnog, het was gewoon veel te druk voor maar drie man, maar ik had zin in Boni, want ik wilde niet koken.

Ergens na 22:00 was het tijd om te gaan. Sofia reed weg in een taxi en ja, het is raar. Alles komt ten einde. 

Tenminste, als ik weg kan gaan. Ik ga ervan uit dat ik wel nog gewoon in juli met de auto weg kan gaan, maar Corona komt dus een beetje terug en alles is weer aan het veranderen.

(Oh, by the way, ik luister naar mijn derde nieuwe glee playlist Ultimate glee playlist. Het zijn de 442 nummers die ik eigenlijk leuk vind. Oké, er staan ook een paar op mijn Glee guilty pleasure songs lijst die net iets te cringe waren voor deze lijst, maar deze show kan ik niet laten gaan. Als ik oud en bejaard ben, dan zit ik in mijn bejaardentehuis mee te zingen met Don’t Stop Believin’.)

Oh, het is 0:00. Een goed moment om te gaan.

What kind of music do like? Would you like to recommend some good artists and songs? :)

Hi, thanks for the question Anon. Music is an important part of my life so I have a lot to say for this. (sorry for the long answer)

My music genres vary a lot. The most popular ones I listen to would probably be alternative, pop punk, rap and some musicals .

The artist I am most currently in love with is probably NF. His name is Nathan and he is a rapper and his music is deep and pretty dark. I don’t have any favourite songs by him but “How Could You Leave Us” is heart-breaking and his whole “The Search” album is up there among some of his best work. The production in his music is very theatrical so some people might not enjoy that but I really like it. If you are into rap, I recommend checking it out. He also has songs that are more singing based if you prefer that. In other words his music is rap with a little bit if pop influence and heavy lyrics.

Next artist I am currently obsessed with is All Time Low. They are a group of friends, who back when they were in school created a band. I believe they were originally a blink-182 cover band. I have been a fan of ATL for a few years now. Their genre is like pop-punk/power pop. Depending on the time of music you enjoy, a certain album will be more enjoyable. I am currently listening to their album “It’s Still Nothing Personal” which is a rerecording of their album “Nothing Personal” on it’s 10 year anniversary. Most of their songs are really upbeat and dancey but a few slower songs as well.

Another top artist in my life is Twenty One Pilots. This band has meant the world to me the past few years. They have a large mix of genres in their music but Wikipedia lists them with the genres: Alternative hip hop, electro indie pop, indie pop, pop rock, rock rep and alternative rock. My favorite album by them is “Trench” especially the songs Cholrine, Cut My Lip, and Neon Gravestones. TOP usually has some music for everyone. Also their live shows are beautiful.

Some of the musicals I listen to are Hamilton and In The Heights. Both are created by Lin-Manuel Miranda and have compelling lyrics and stunning singers. There is a rap element to both musicals. 

Some other artists/songs I enjoy but the but the list was getting too long: Troye Sivan, Alec Benjamin, Fall Out Boy, Half Alive, I Don’t Know How They Found Me, Green Day, I’ll Be Good by Jaymes Young, Witt Lowry, Michael In A Bathroom from Be More Chill, Mayday Parade and many more

Dogs get the gold in Ballarat

THE Western Bulldogs have come out on top in a closely-contested tussle with Gold Coast on Saturday afternoon, defeating the Suns by nine points. Despite losing gun midfielder Marcus Bontemepelli to hip soreness in the lead-up to the game, the men in red, white and blue proved to be too good for the Suns in a see-sawing affair, prevailing 11.15 (81) to 10.12 (72) at Mars Stadium in Ballarat. The result sees Luke Beveridge's troops improve to 3-4 on the season after suffering heavy losses to Greater Western Sydney and West Coast in the opening two rounds. Suns ruckman Jarrod Witts continued his strong start to 2018 with a 21-possession, 58-hit-out performance, but the Bulldogs won the clearances 52 to 32. Dogs young gun Jack Macrae was the chief destroyer with 40 possessions (24 contested), including 12 clearances, 10 score involvements and one goal.

JACK Macrae was an unstoppable force in the Western Bulldogs' hard-fought nine-point win over Gold Coast at Mars Stadium in Ballarat on Saturday afternoon. He was ably-supported by stand-in captain Lachie Hunter who racked up 34 disposals (14 contested), while Luke Dahlhaus and Toby McLean were also prolific with 31 and 30 possessions respectively. Matthew Suckling provided plenty of bounce off half-back with 24 disposals, including six rebound 50's, while Billy Gowers and Patrick Lipinski kicked two goals each. For Gold Coast, Touk Miller put in a strong shift, finishing with 26 possessions, one goal and eight tackles, but he will be lamenting the fact that he let Macrae get off the chain. David Swallow led the way at the contest for the Suns, with 17 of his 26 touches coming in contested situations, while Ben Ainsworth showed he is a star of the future with 25 possessions, including eight score involvements. Jack Martin demonstrated his class with 23 touches and two goals, while Brayden Crossley was a solid contributor on debut, tallying 13 disposals, one goal and seven hit-outs. The Western Bulldogs got off to a dream start with Josh Dunkley kicking the first major of the game in the opening minute. But, it was Gold Coast who had the better of the opening stanza, Stuart Dew's charges harder at the contest than their opponents, the visitors winning the tackle count 22 to nine and the contested possession count 45 to 35. The Dogs could count themselves lucky to be trailing by just 10 points at the first change, the Suns booting a wayward 2.6 for the term as they struggled to adapt to the windy conditions. Martin put through the first major of the second quarter before the Bulldogs stamped their authority on the contest. The Dogs lifted their intensity in the clinches and as a result were able to get their running game going, four straight goals, including two from Lipinski, their ward as they regained the ascendancy on the scoreboard. In a sign of their new-found maturity, Gold Coast controlled the tempo in the closing stages of the first half after the Bulldogs threatened to establish a handy buffer, Charlie Ballard's first goal in AFL football followed by Sam Day's second major on the stroke of half-time giving the Suns a four-point advantage. Crossley showed some great composure for a 198cm, 101kg player, goaling on the run to get Gold Coast off to a bright start in the third quarter, but with Macrae wielding his influence, the Bulldogs were able to find plenty of open space and hit back with majors from Lin Jong and Mitch Honeychurch. But, for all their dominance in general play the Dogs found themselves trailing heading into the final change with Gold Coast making the most of their forays forward, goals from Alex Sexton and Miller setting up a grandstand finish. The ball was camped in the Bulldogs' half for the first half of the last quarter and, finally, after 13 entries inside 50 they got some reward for effort, with promising youngster Tim English putting one through the big sticks. Aaron Young's second squared the ledger, but finally weight of numbers started to take its toll, with a Gowers major quickly followed by a Bailey Williams conversion, giving the Bulldogs a 12-edge, huge in the context of the game, and sending the pro-Bulldogs crowd into raptures. However a never-say-die attitude is a hallmark of this Gold Coast side and the Suns responded through Martin to ensure a tense finish.

WHO'S in charge, here?

GOD IS: In THIS era of INSTANT gratification, it seems like YOUR Heavenly Father has been taking his sweet time to render verdict.

Growing impatient? Remember the old saying: "Good things come to THOSE WHO WAIT..."

There will be no rest for the wicked, once God gets FULLY INVOLVED.

👑👰 Mrs Christ will be represented by a Holy law FIRM, BEFORE the biden robbery is sealed.

🛐 HOLD TIGHT❣️

This is the SECOND consecutive day of homeless outreach, on Skid Row.

REQUIRED VIEWINGS!!

MUST READ ⬆️⬆️⬆️.

Dominion's 🗳️ software vaults were RAIDED on Tuesday, December 15 by 🇺🇸 Armed Forces.

GAME CHANGERS are here. HOSANNAS‼️

Stop believing everything that LAMESTREAM 👿 fake news is reporting. The majority of it IS propaganda. SCOTUS may still re-enter these legal proceedings.

Meanwhile...

Christ's Bridal Party continues her work, UNINTERRUPTED.

🦇 Batman's crusade is a street brawl, and FAR FROM OVER.

A stroke of genius: "Legal expert Benjamin Wittes described Barr's move as 'devilishly clever.'

'The move has the effect of saddling Biden with a Special Counsel investigation. Because while as a U.S. attorney, Durham can—and likely will—be dismissed in the normal course of the change of administration, as a Special Counsel he is protected FROM removal by regulations that require he can be fired ONLY for 'good cause' or for some gross impropriety."

IF INDEED the 🇨🇳 mainland chinese Biblical-plague, as part of its devilish strategy, is to further persecute the worship of Christ, CENSORSHIP efforts are going to backfire spectacularly.

Patriots come in ALL shapes and sizes❣️

demo-🐀RATS seek to INCREASE ✝️ Christian persecution: THAT'S ⬆️ what the left voted, for.

Don't live with regrets: make every outreach opportunity COUNT, that you can be part of.
