#lmk yuebei xing

After the whole mess with the Brotherhood is handled in Soft Boiked au, Wukong has another situation to handle. MK now knows he's a Stone Monkey, the same species as Wukong himself. He may also suspect Wukong to be his biological parent, although Wukong goes on record to say that no, Yubei was the only kid he actually birthed, MK may be his cub in his heart, but they share no biological connection that Wukong is aware of.

But even if MK isn't biologically Wukongs, they have the situation of his true form. Specifically, teaching MK how to Monkey. Wukong thinks it'd be easy, MK already acts so much like a monkey it's hard to imagine him struggling, but the problem isn't that he can't act like a monkey. It's that he doesn't have the confidence to do so knowingly. He can climb and groom just fine, but when it comes to things like diet and soaring through the trees, the way macaques do, he struggles. He gets grossed out at the thought of picking through someone's hair and eating bugs, he hesitates when he should use the branch he just climbed as a springboard to reach the next tree, he feels uncomfortable doing thinks like chirping and hooting. His upbringing makes him hesitate to listen to his natural instincts, and while it's nothing against Pigsy or Tang, it's just that societal expectations of modern China are causing MK to hold back.

Wukong had faced a similar problem when he'd gotten back from the Journey, after spending so many years being punished for 'hyperactive and unsocietal behavior' up until Tripitaka had it beaten over his head that Wukong was not only pregnant but that these were normal monkey things and not disrespectful in nature at all, he struggled to adapt to being a monkey again.

The fact that MK was already dealing with self esteem issues and then got stuck in a scroll with a ink demon in the shape of his monkey form that would only dig at those insecurities only made it worse.

Prev.

MK is in for a loooong learning montage after learning he's a Stone Monkey, thats for sure!

It's not an easy road.

Lots of "George of the Jungle"-esque mishaps involving tree climbing occur.

Could have it been a little easier if MK had been raised as a monkey demon? Yes. But he also would have faced greater social challenges, not to mention if any of Wukong's enemies "sensed" what he actually was.

And don't even get MK started on the "picking bugs out of each other's fur and eating"-part. He found a tiny garden spider crawling in Macaque's fur during a troop grooming session and nearly passed out.

MK, trying to psyche himself up to eat the bug: (*gags*) Macaque, sniffs himself thinking that's the problem: "What? I showered recently." Yuebei: (*reaches up and steals the bug from MK, eating it instead*) MK: (*very grossed-out sigh of relief*) "I love you, mooncake."

He feels like he's behind even little Yuebei of all people when it comes to learning to Monkey! At least she can chirp and hoot without anyone looking at her weirdly...

Wukong sighs and jokes it's like teaching two cubs at once.

Luckily, MK isn't alone. Turns out, Wukong has gone through the very same thing he has nearly twice over! Subodhi canonically strikes and punishes Wukong for happily jumping and hooting when he's excited for class, so Wukong literally had his instincts beaten out of him. And later still when he became Bimawen and a Peach Attendant, he found himself subconsciously suppressing his "monkey" habits in order to avoid criticism from surrounding celestials.

While the Tang Monk had been confused by Wukong's monkey habits, he adapted to them - with a lot of "gentle" persuasion from Guanyin, Ao Lie, Sha Wujing, and many of the allies they made along the way of course. Afterall, part of Tripitaka's character development is him starting out close-minded and opening himself to the fact that people just gonna act and be different. After Tripitaka learned that Heaven and even Wukong's first master had punished and resented his nature, he especially made sure Wukong understood that he didn't want him to see his behaviours as "unnatural". Just him.

MK also gets a lot of encouragement from the rest of his "troop".

Pigsy and Tang feel really bad not being able to indulge MK's natural behaviours as a cub, but they were always understanding that he was just their special little guy. If he was hyperactive or overstimulated, they had ways to address it. I love hcs of Tang being neurodivergent, so he when sees Baby MK throwing tantrums and just be like "Mood."

Red Son and Mei secretly begin flexing their own natural behaviours so MK doesn't feel as left out. Though MK was def confused the first time he got friendly-headbutts and nips.

LMK fic au idea

Welp im not good writing fic and my ideas are riots

@quitealotofsodapop and I made an au about the Monkey King's children: Paramita, Sun Luzhen, Yuebei Xing, Jidu and Luohou.

This happens once Wukong finishes his journey and returns home, helping with the reconstruction of the island, mainly because he starts to feel lonely especially for what happened with his partner Macaque. And one of the things he always wanted once the war was over is to be able to have a family with his beloved but this couldn't happen so he will do it with his own hands in the style of Nuwa, he would create clay eggs and even find a hidden one and from there his children would be born.

Paramita is the firstborn and heir to the throne of the kingdom of the mountain of fruits and flowers and Alolai being the serious of all his brothers and the most elegant of them, he has an elegance that his father lacks but that will not make him less lethal on the battlefield; he is the general of the kingdom's army and has on his shoulders the expectations of the kingdom as crown prince.

Sun Luzhen in his canon is Wukong's twin brother who had taken so long to hatch, and the second to be born when he was found, the king had adopted him as his own son, He has an energetic personality like a showman, He is now a version of Porty light, he is a professional musician and has worked in various musical genres, even in large industries making soundtracks for various movies or video games under an alias.

Yuebei Xing, the only daughter of the monkey king, is daddy's little princess, with a tough character and a very bad temper, with an enormous and muscular build that makes her completely intimidating, but under the dark shell she is a monkey who loves her family and her brothers, she was born with a cleft lip of which she only has a scar, she is a renowned paleontologist in her field who loves her job, she has always loved digging up bones since she was little.

Jidu and Luohou they are mischievous twins who like to cause trouble like their older brother Luzhen, who love theater like Macaque and dedicate their life to that art. Jidu is a comedian in various stand-up comedy shows while Luohou is an actor in musicals and has participated in many.

Jidu

Grande Caeza de pichi

Luohou

King Paramita, Jidu and Luohou desing based in @wuzhiqi-enj0yer

Wukong wanted to experience the possibility of having children by modeling in clay that he created 4 eggs, by the time he found the stone egg of Luzhen he found that the Paramita egg had already hatched and in time only the eggs of the others would hatch turning Wukong into a tired father of 5 energetic children.

Rumors of his existence abounded, especially the fact that Paramita was the son of Princess Iron Fan, which was never lacking (Paramita could never find the author of that aberration in the book and if he had, he would have pulverized it). This rumor was born because he and Red Son WERE childhood friends and a possible marriage union between them was expected (Like Odette and Derek in The Swan Princess). Now their parents wanted them to marry for love like they did, but then the thing at the mountain happened and they lost contact.

Paramita as a cub: "This is my best friend Red. When we grow up, we'll get married and have an island to ourselves!" :3

But that is if the day they meet again they shout with joy and hug each other like little kids who haven't seen each other all summer.

The rumors of the monkey king's children grew to be illustrated in the non-canonical sequels of the journey to the west and at that time they were just children, but due to the isolation of the monkey king the rumors of them became a myth until their existence was doubted, making the shadow of his father grow…

MK would meet the children of the monkey king in ''A hero is born'' is when he lands on the beach of Huaguoshan Island and they were the monkeys in disguise (Headcanon the common monkeys are glamours of yao monkeys)

Making them lose their glamour and scare MK even more until Paramita has to take control of the situation by lining everyone up.

After the initial scare MK asks them to take him to the monkey king and leave them alone; Now you might be wondering why the monkey king would need a successor? Simple, because Wukong has empty nest syndrome.

For the events of season two Paramita and his brothers will be in charge of MK's training so he wouldn't be so far behind and if they would be aware of LBD.

When MKang finds out about their existence it will be at the end of this same season especially when Pigsy is yelling at Wukong and oh boy, if there is something that Paramita does NOT tolerate at all is that HIS FATHER IS INSULTED (He's a daddy's boy)

Pigsy: You're supposed to be his mentor! Paramita: "Excusr me!? He raised five children as a single parent!" HE IS ANYTHING BUT A LAZY MAN WHO DOES NOTHING, DAMN SERVANT!!!

Paramita was millimeters away from beating Pigsy up, he will defend his father's honor knowing how introverted he is and will let that insult pass (He will fight even in mud to prove his point), his brothers would be pulling him to avoid the chef's announced death, even Yuebei has a hard time doing it being the strongest of all her brothers.

And that would be all c:

EDIT: And now the au called ''Wuxing au''

[maidenofthecloud]

I love the fact that almost all fandom agrees that the paramita king is the big brother

Monkey siblings!

@centuryberry

The last chapter was so good so I just had to draw the scene where Xiaotian absolutely freaks out about a male yue! My human design for yue has freckles where her face markings are.

I plan to work on the reverse of this scene eventually.

I had fun with this but I never want to render metal again..😰

[tuskstudioart]

G....guys am I cooking....

(OC W.I.P- SUBJECT TO CHANGE)

[icekingofhope]

"Oh Great Sage, where have you scattered all your children. Tell me so I say. Oh dear father where have you scattered all your children tell us so we say."

(So there was this trend where people drew the harpy hare illustration thing and I wanted to do that although I realized it was fucking hard but I was so proud of the drawings I gotten so far so I decided to share them I hope you like them)

[quitealotofsodapop]

Them!!

I love the twin boys having vitiligo alongside their patterned fur - it makes them look so distinct! Wukong and Macaque were likely a little confused by their looks at first, joking that the "paint didn't mix well". They love their colourful babies either way. <3 Little tortieshell boys who idolize their adoptive uncles Jin & Yin.

And teen Yuebei!! She is such a pouty teenager it hurts. I love her jewelry and light blue hanfu - taking some fashion tips from Aunt Chang'e looks like, with her own gothic twist.

Poor beautiful Wukong. I love his long hair and red robes - he looks so pretty and maternal. And now he's dealing with his own head-strong monkey who wants to go out on their own. But its so hard for him to do that when Yuebei is still very much his little mooncake. XD

I love everything about these - you have such a distinct artstyle and you draw the characters so appealing! All the little details on Yuebei's dress, and the mirrored patterns on the boys. <3

Tysm for being so invested in my little monkey ideas!

@quitealotofsodapop Third on the list! Jidu & Luohuo! Another set of twins! The only way to tell them apart is by their skin color but that doesn’t mean they won’t try to confuse you with each other. You said their fur was kind of like tortoiseshell cats and tortoise shell cats kind of remind me of people with vitiligo so I also gave them spots on their skin aside from their fur. Other demons say they look kind of weird but hey! Their parents were also called weird when they were little and they turned out to be pretty cool so they don’t mind.

And a little bonus! Teen yuebei and her baba!

Headcanons for Sun Children

I have ideas now that the cycles have been presented.

Nobody is sure where they came from, Wukong just had them one day.

Yuebei Xing is the eldest and is Wukong's heir. None of them expect Wukong to pass for a good long while, but it's better safe than sorry.

Jidu and Luohou are twins, excluding the fact that Luohou has a third eye- idea stolen from this fic series. I actually imagine Rumble and Savage's designs being used for them.

Yuebei looks like Wukong- at least, how he looked in that cycle

She's actually taller and more muscular, but she likes to glamor when not in battle because people bother her constantly about not being as pretty.

For quite a few cycles, they were a constant in Wukong's life, providing him with a source of companionship alongside the generals and marshals when the pilgrims passed.

Yuebei's skull in most cycles is actually the Six-Eared Macaque's skull. In other cycles, it's the skull of the Demon King of Confusion.

Red Son is the eldest, but Yuebei was in charge when it came to playtime

All three were removed from the cycles at once, cast in the strange otherworld of Chaos, doomed to be forgotten by their father and family. Thankfully, all three have each other to stay sane.

After the pillar, Wukong has started feeling like he's forgotten someone or someones important.

An idea suggested by @draw-of-the-moon: sometimes, before and after the pillar, Wukong will fold three extra monkeys when creating origami. He assumed at least one was for Macaque, but that didn't feel right.

There is something in chaos. He calls himself Pangu

He was delighted when he met the siblings, referring to them as his grandchildren

Yuebei and the twins are unsure of what's going on, but something feels off with "Pangu" and they're forced to constantly entertain him whenever he pops by

Hopefully they can figure a way out before he shows his hand

[centuryberry]

For the sake of stone fruits, I'm sorry!

But I can't help but imagine their future relationship dynamics LIKE THIS. (⁠~⁠‾⁠▿⁠‾⁠)~

But still, I will patiently and with deep interest observe how their relationship will actually develop after they have survived all this hell that fate has prepared for them.

Lmao, this does capture their relationship, doesn’t it? Poor Xiaotian being a blushy mess over some romantic hand holding while Yue is fighting with her yaoguai teenage hormones and cuteness aggression with a straight face.

[quitealotofsodapop]

Wukong liked to sing to Yubei when she was in the egg. He was always self concious about his singing voice after the Furnace and the mountain because of how rough and scratchy it had become, never quite healing, so he wouldn't sing where anyone would be able to hear him, but he loved to hum and sing little songs to Yubei during his time in isolation.

awww

Wukong sings a bunch of different songs when he's alone. And even more in the time he held Xiaotian in his arms.

Ancient monkey chirping. A lullaby older than empires. Songs that his mate had composed in a begone era for restless cubs. The theme of his favourite cartoons.

One really cute song I found was the Mandarin version of "All is Found" from Frozen 2.

His voice is a little more rough from so many years of disuse and crying.

Macaque still thinks it's the most beautiful voice he's ever heard.

And it isn't long until Yuebei is cheeping her Baba's songs back to him. even the one's he only sang when she was an Egg.

[crazysaru99]

I used a meme of @iamaleximusprime character voices For my versions of Wukong's children and Liu Chenxiang, I tried to draw them as if they appeared in the series, I hope I got it right.

Paramita and Luzhen's voices were the first ones I knew for sure what their voices would be like. The Lunar Node Triplets' voices are the ones I was looking for how they would sound and the easiest of them was Yuebei's. The one that cost me the most to find a possible voice for Chenxiang but at least I managed to get a definitive one.

It took me… 5 days? or more to do all this…

@quitealotofsodapop me estaba poniendo un poco turbia con las preguntas así que le bajó el nivel un poco (hasta a mí me dio miedo xjfjd)

[maidenofthecloud]

she looks so pretty!! 😆

Can a mf just hhhhhhHHHhh

[darkonyxdraws]

@centuryberry

I been wanting to do a feral yue for a bit so I drew this! I based the pose off of a specific scene from Jjk.

She deserves to go crazy every once in an awhile after all the shit she has to put up with.

I will definitely be doing more cuz I love it when we get feral yue. It scratches an itch in my brain

[dorothygale123]

Chapter 18, coming up! Macaque meets Yue, and has some feelings about it.
