#shadow kid: a cursed eclipse

AU where SWK and Mac share a body but like, different

During the day he's Wukong, the Monkey King, MK's teacher, but the moment the sun disappears from the sky he's Liu'er Mihou, the Six Eared Macaque, a king's shadow

During the daytime, Macaque (or his essence? Idk how to explain it) appears as SWK's shadow. He can't leave SWK's side, but he can control other shadows and stretch himself enough to cover up a whole room. He can still make shadow clones of himself to resemble a physical body, but he can't posses them so it's useless anyway (unless it's for fighting or stuff like that). He's never wanted his own body anyway

When it's night, Sun Wukong appears as all the light surrounding Macaque. Be it a lamppost, a phone, a fire, or even the glow of the moon, you name it. All of that is him. If he really wants to, though, he can show up as some kind of ghost, like when he's doing that whole Astral Projection thingy, but more cloud-looking. If you pay enough attention, you can sometimes see something that looks like a golden cloud surrounding Macaque's body

They can tell what the other is feeling and thinking all the time. It's not overwhelming or anything, it's just how things have always been. When they "talk" they don't do it with words, they just always know what the other wants to communicate

Part One of Sonic Scribbles from The Past Months .

This was at first me just Revisiting an Old Fixation from Memory, and coming up with an AU and Designs for it where I Throw all the Characters and Storylines I enjoyed as a Kid into the Stirring Pot. Perhaps I will Divulge more into my Ideas Another Time. (As a Sidenote, I Haven't engaged Too Much with all of the Recent Stuff so that's not really Considered here.)

I don't have a Problem with most of the characters Original designs here, I just Wanted to make my own changes For Fun (Plus, I changed most of these Later On but We'll get to that Another Time) I did want to try to Undo the "Girls Must Have Full Outfits" rule When I did these however, Just Because

Notes and Extra Scribbles Under the Cut

Silver, Shard, Sally and Nicole are All from the future in which the world has been Metaphorically Shredded in a Blender .

Blaze is solely from her own dimension; No Sonic 06 Nonsense (or at least, if she Ends up in the Future it's clear she's Not from there . Probably brings Marine Along for the ride in That Case)

Knuckles is too busy doing his Silly Job to be the third member of the Hero Team, so Amy fills the Role sometimes.

Rouge is a Thief and a Freelance spy . With a long track record of Backstabbing .

Silver thinks his powers are a Curse after he accidentally threw a Semi-truck on an innocent civilian Once.

An Astute Sonic Fan might Notice what I based my Eclipse design off of . (Also yes I am an Eclipse Fan I love Shadow's Alien Brother who is a Single Father)

Tried to make Maria look more "Robotnik" Like

Jet serves the role of Sonic's Consistent yet Pathetic "Rival" (Nuisance) who will get into Competitions with him over Petty Bullshit

The Extra Scribbles:

Don't worry If you can't Read my Handwriting . Neither can I .

[beesmygod]

sorry to double ask but my elden ring timeline thoughts have been activated and id like to roughly explain some of it so!

Marika's village is jarred -> Makes a deal with the Greater Will for revenge against the Hornsent -> Usurps the Gloam-Eyed Queen, becomes god, marries Godfrey, seals away Destined Death creating a cycle of reincarnation (and stagnation) in the Erdtree -> Godwyn is born -> War with the Fire Giants and Fell God, genesis of Radagon -> War with Lurnia -> Marika/Radagon marries Rennala -> Messmer is born, allowed to live to fulfill revenge against the Hornsent even tho he harbors visions of flame -> * -> War with the Hornsent, Land of the Scadutree is sealed with shadow (along with Messmer to prevent him to prevent him from returning with the flame), assuming this is the event which causes Mesmyr to lose contact with Greater Will throwing the Two Fingers into chaos -> * -> Panicked Two Fingers makes Radagon divorce Rennala, Grief destroys Rennala's psyche leaving her a crestfallen shell, Marika being the one who truly loved Rennala this forments the schism between her and Radagon/the "Greater Will" -> Stagnation starts killing the Erdtree, Godwyn is deigned a sacrificial lamb to cultivate a new Rune of Death by the "Greater Will" in an effort to cure the Erdtree of its stagnation, Godwyn's intended death is the final straw that fully turns Marika against the "Greater Will", Marika and Ranni both formulate plans to usurp the "Greater Will" (imo separately) -> Marika banishes Godfrey and his army creating the Tarnished, and revives Melina's soul and gives her her mission -> Before the Tarnished return Ranni orchestrates the Night of Black Knives, breaking the new Rune of Death in two, stealing the half that kills your body for herself and leaving Godwyn with half that kills you soul -> Marika's plan being ruined and unable to save her Son destroys the Elden Ring in grief and rage as revenge against the "Greater Will" -> The Shattering war starts, Rykard intentionally gets eaten by a snake god like a dumbass, Godrick becomes a grafting pervert, Radahn holds back the meteor halting Ranni's plans, Miquella's shit fuckery with Mohg and Radahn starts -> We show up :)

*Other demigods are born in this period (including Melina, who is eventually sacrificed because one child with visions of flame is enough to fulfill the revenge and another threatens the safety of the Erdtree. Her soul is retained by Marika for contigency against the Greater Will)*

Started using quotes around Greater Will to denote it being after Metyr lost contact with it meaning it wasn't truly the Greater Will anymore.

Wow holy shit thats a lot sorry

DA BIGGER ASK!!!

oh shit wait my timeline....is the gloam-eyed queen NOT melina? or is melina taking on the former queen's duties/role as part of the ~elden cycle~ or whatever? you're right though, i forgot the GEQ was the guardian of destined death at one point so it couldn't have been her kid. well, that's a fucking wrench in my brain. that's worth meditating on more and wondering about.

OHHH WAIT I READ FURTHER...it's interesting that melina could have been force revived by marika (and why not? she's doing it to a lot of people including us) because i had assumed melina and messmer were another set of radagon and marika's twins who were fucked up and cursed in a different way than the other set they allowed in public.

another weird wrinkle to the radahn stars thing is that i forgot about miquella's eclipse plan that failed to bring godwyn back. if the stars have been stuck in place, then its radahn's fault the eclipse didn't happen. on purpose??? maybe??? i really like the idea of radahn, who by all accounts appears to have been a big softie, being like "nooo my sister don't go to space i wont let you :(" but i had forgotten about how much that side of the family hates marika's lol.

WAIT I REMEMBERED: at one point melina was going to be an empyrean right? we find that statue of a young girl surrounded by three wolves, presumably the same spirit ash wolves we can summon that once belonged to "torrent's former master" (melina!). man wtf. what is melina. who is she. what is she. who sealed her freaking eye and why. and most importantly....why can't torrent triple jump like the ancestor spirit come on bro

[midnightsun-if]

Can you tell us more about the ROs personalities please? Thanks!!

Koda: He may be a bear-shifter, but he’s an absolute puppy. Gets teary eyed at little animals, absolutely adores flower crowns, calls children ‘cubs’ and always offers them piggyback rides (shifted or not). He’s just a genuinely happy man. Who loves life and adores spending it with people he cares for. He’s not the brightest bulb in the batch, but he makes up for it in so many other ways.

Scarlett: I wasn’t kidding when I said she’d be an Ice Queen romance. She’s calm, stoic, collected at all times, and is seemingly impervious to the majority of things. However, she’s also extremely charming and holds an allure that pulls people in— despite her best efforts. It’s both a blessing and a curse to her. As I’ve mentioned before, a fully romanced Scarlett would be the sweetest woman in the world to you, but it’d only be to you.

Cyrus/Cyra: They’re very focused and goal-oriented. Ascending to the Eclipse Throne has been something they’ve strived for since they’ve started being prepped for it. Extremely loyal, they’d bend over backwards to help those that they trust. It takes them a while to open up, but they’re well worth the effort.

Quinn: Energized. Quinn enjoys various physical pursuits in life— they adore being outdoors: feeling the wind on their face, hearing the birds sing, and plunging themself into the heart of what makes the world feel so alive. They always like to be doing something, but not in a hyper way— in a forlorn, longing sort of way.

Caden: Fretful is one way to put their countenance. They’re in charge of organizing a lot of things for your family, which means they need to make sure that everything is perfect at all times. It causes them to be quite jumpy too— quick to apologize at any possible slight and an ability to make themself appear smaller than they actually are.

Sloane: Quick to anger, guarded, and a bit grumpy, Sloane doesn’t allow themself to get close with anyone. They’ve been burned one too many times for that. With a dry sense of humor, laced with sarcasm, and a habit of self deprecation, they prefer to slink back into the shadows then be at the forefront of anyone’s mind; not that they ever have been really.

Blake: Flirtatious, laidback, rebellious (in some degree), are a couple ways to describe Blake. They love good booze like they love good company. With a mischievous charm, along with an allure that comes from their demon parent, Blake tends to talk their way out of any issue; not that they’d ever knowingly put you in harms way. It just sort of happens.

Reginald/Regina: Extremely intelligent, with a thirst to learn more about the supernatural world, along with a capacity of incredible understanding. They can be quite forceful in their exuberance at times, but they mean well. Despite their slightly chatty nature, they’re a great listener and will drop everything if it meant helping out a friend.

[quitealotofsodapop]

Sorry just realized something funny about the Shadowpeach pregnancies.

First it was one (MK), then two (Eclipse Twins) and now three (Lunar Node Triplets). Maybe it is a good thing they are not interested in having any more magical pregnancies, if this keeps up they will be having quadruplets or quintuplets.

Haha! It was more a happy accident on my part XD

But yeah, Shadowpeach best be careful making more kids in the future. The "Buy 1, get 2 Free" situation with the Lunar Node Triplets have probably made them more wary when planning for future infants.

I wanted Macaque's little toyline shadow clones/Eclipse Twins (LMK) to be their kids, then I wanted the non-canon Yuebei Xing and ofc I had to include her brothers Jidu and Luohou (all three from "Journey to the South") cus they're so cool.

There are other "unofficial" kids of Sun Wukong in extended Journey to the West-inspired media that I wouldn't really count tho.

King Pāramitā (+4 unseen brothers) from "A Supplement to the Journey to the West" - set between an alternate timeline of Chapters 61 and 62 where Tripitaka gets kidnapped by a time traveller (even in 1640 people were pulling that trope) that somehow convinced him to give up the pilgrimage. King Pāramitā and his four brothers were apparently concieved when SWK accidentally got PIF knocked up when he transformed himself into a stomach bug/parasite in order to extort the Fan from her (Chapter 59 of JttW). I find that situation a bit too uncomfy/medically inaccurate so no. If anything I'd give Ironbull the bonus five kids, and that Pāramitā was the result of SWK accidentally lifting a curse from the couple - like when parents joke that their kid's "true parent" was a bottle of alcohol.

And since LMK's MK himself is likely a whole reference to Sun Luzhen from "Later Journey to the West" (17th century), it would be a little redundant to make a Sun Luzhen kid. Does give my Wukongverse idea of each of the SWKs having an "MK" weight tho.

In hindsight; between my au Shadowpeach's bio and adopted kids, I accidentally gave SWK the "five sons" (MK, Rumble, Jidu & Luohou, + the adopted Chenxiang) he's said to have had in A Supplement. XD

I would like to thank @journeytothewestresearch for their endless dedication and research into these sort of topics, since I use their articles as sources. I apologise for using your research as fanfic material. Go check their website out if you got any Jttw questions.

[samadhifired]

Okay, a long ramble time:

Some people might already know this, but apparently the JttW has a semi-canon sequel called the Journey to the South (Though it seems like JttS was written first: 1570 and 1580 vs JttW's 1592. So technically that would make JttW a "prequel-sequel"?)

And as you probably also know, Wukong has three kids in it: Two kids who are only name dropped (Jidu and Luohou, assumably sons) and skull throwing, "I can curse immortals to die within 3 days", daughter (Yuebei Xing).

The funny thing is; they all are named after deities found from China's version of Hindu Astrology. Jidu and Louhou refer to planetary bodies associated with the moon (namely ascending and descending Lunar nodes where eclipses happen), while Yuebei's name comes from a planet representing the lunar apogee (Moon's furthest point from Earth).

But to tie this to LMK fandom and make things even better..

The people in this fandom has pretty much given Macaque three kids as well: Rumble, Savage and Bai He. Two shadow clone sons (I think they are boys?) who are only name dropped in a non-canon toy set and a human daughter who was possessed by a demon/goddess who has a strong association with bones.

Is this just me or are these description sounding awfully familiar?

I'm not saying that we should start referring Rumble, Savage and Bai He as Jidu, Luohou and Yuebei Xing...

Buuuut I'm definitely headcanoning that they are the alternate universe versions of each other.

It just fits way too well!

(Also, if these three were to be part of LMK universe, there is no way they wouldn’t be Macaque's kids as well. Because why else would Wukong have 3 kids who all have Moon themed names?

Unless their mother is some other moon themed being like Chang'e. Which most likely is the JttS's explanation.)

If you are interested: This blog has couple posts about Wukong's kids in general [1, 2] (Journey to the West Research also has a Tumblr).

While this one paper that explains some of the history of Daoist astrology. Luohou and Jidu (who are referred with their Hindu names Rahu and Ketu) are first mentioned in the beginning of “Musée Guimet, Painted Banner” section, while Yuebei comes up in “Ruiguangsi 1005 CE Print: Planetary Roadmap” right after the Figure 12.

[trucetale]

Okay so I’m almost done with both Sunset’s and Sunrise’s individual bios but I have to finish it after I come back from vacation. But in the meantime I have a bit of lore for EclipseTale that would be too much to add to their comment section of their bio and was also thinking of summing it up in comic form.

EclipseTale AU

An alternate universe where monsters are as scary as the bedtime stories parents would tell their kids. Where cryptids and folk lore monsters are the norm. It takes place in an area known by mankind as the Cursed Eclipse Path. This path covers a large amount of land where the solar eclipse shadow envelopes. This land is dominated by the very monsters humans have learned to fear and avoid at all cost. Though the monsters weren’t always like this. They used to be kind, compassionate, polite, and very hospitable, until a group of arrogant and prideful mages decided that anyone without the ability to use magic were inferior and Monsters weren’t embracing their true potential. Through determination they inflicted a “curse” amongst the denizens in the path of the solar eclipse. Causing Monsters to loose their kindness and humans who possess magic abilities loose their sanity. They both started to change and mutate becoming blood thirsty for the non magic users.

Through generations and a permanent change in the souls of those who were affected Cursed Eclipse Path became a non human territory where if you entered you would never be seen again. This land is ruled by many boss monsters that have been deemed as demon boss type monsters, each one ruling a region.

More to come when I get back for sure but this is what I have so far.

The Sunshine Kid

By Harry Baker

Old man sunshine was proud of his sun,

And it brightened his day to see his little boy run,

Not because of what he’d done, nor the problems overcome,

But that despite that his disposition remained a sunny one.

It hadn’t always been like this.

There’d been times when he’d tried to hide his brightness,

You see, every star hits periods of hardship,

It takes a brighter light to inspire them through the darkness.

If we go back to when he was born in a nebula,

We know that he never was thought of as regular,

Because he had a flair about him,

To say the Midas touch is wrong

But all he went near seemed to turn a little bronze,

Yes this sun was loved by some more than others,

It was a case of Joseph and his dreamcoat and his brothers

Because standing out from the crowd had its pros and its cons,

And jealousy created enemies in those he outshone

Such as the Shadow People.

Now the Shadow People didn’t like the Sunshine Kid,

Because he showed up the dark things the Shadow People did,

And when he shone he showed the places where the Shadow People hid,

So the Shadow People had an evil plan to get rid of him,

First up — they made fun of his sunspots,

Shooting his dreams from the sky, their words were gunshots,

Designed to remind him he wasn’t very cool

And he didn’t fit in with any popular kids at school.

They said his head was up in space and they would bring him down to Earth,

Essentially he came from nothing and that is what he was worth,

He’d never get to go to university to learn,

Only degrees he’d ever show would be the first degree burns

From those that came too close,

they told him he was too bright,

That’s why no one ever looked him in the eyes,

His judgment became clouded

So did the sky, With evaporated tears

as the sun started to cry.

Because the sunshine kid was bright, with a warm personality,

And inside he burned savagely

Hurt by the words and curses of the shadowy folk

who spoke holes in his soul and left cavities,

And as his heart hardened, his spark darkened,

Every time they called him names it cooled his flames,

He thought they might like him if he kept his light dim

But they were busy telling lightning she had terrible aim,

He couldn’t quite get to grips with what they said,

So he let his light be eclipsed by what they said,

He fell into a Lone Star State like Texas,

And felt like he’d been punched in his solar plexus.

But that’s when Little Miss Sunshine came along

Singing her favorite song about how we’re made to be strong,

And you don’t have to be wrong to belong, Just be true to who you are,

because we are all stars at heart.

Little Miss Sunshine was hot stuff,

The kind of girl when you looked at her

you forgot stuff,

But for him, there was no forgetting her,

The minute he saw her her image burned in his retina,

She was out of this world, and she accepted him,

Something about this girl meant he knew whenever she was next to him,

Things weren’t as dark as they seemed, and he dared to dream,

Shadows were nowhere to be seen; when she was there he beamed,

His eyes would light up in ways that can’t be faked,

When she grinned her rays erased the razor-tipped words of hate,

They gave each other nicknames, they were “cool star” and “fun sun,”

And gradually the shadowy damage became undone,

She was one in a septillion, and she was brilliant,

Could turn the coldest blooded reptilians vermillion,

Loved by billions, from Chileans to Brazilians,

And taught the Sunshine Kid the meaning of resilience.

She said: “All the darkness in the world

cannot put out the light from a single candle

So how the hell can they handle your light?

Only you can choose to dim it, and the sky is the limit,

so silence the critics by burning.”

And if eyes are windows to the soul then she drew back the curtains

And let the sun shine through the hurting.

In a universe of adversity these stars stuck together,

And though days became nights the memories would last forever,

Whether the weatherman said it or not, it would be fine,

‘Cause even behind the clouds the kid could still shine.

Yes, the Sunshine Kid was bright, with a warm personality,

And inside he burned savagely,

Fueled by the fire inspired across galaxies.

DREARY NIGHTS

Pairing: Megumi Fushiguro/Female Reader

Summary: Milky puddles of darkness and shadows plaster the empty halls of Jujutsu High. Everyone residing inside the school was under the spell of rest, except Megumi. The "death" of Itadori Yuuji possessed him to remain awake night and day for a week now. Megumi didn't even know why he was so upset about that idiot. He barely knew the kid. But his heart was still heavy. Instead of nightmares, he kept thinking about it all the time. He wandered the halls like a ghost. The last few days, watching you sleep, despite how awkward it may be if he was caught, was therapeutic. This night, in particular, he catches you crying as he peeks into your room, and you sense your boyfriend's pain.

JUJUTSU KAISEN MASTERLIST | TAGLIST

A/N: Trying this tumblr thing again.

Now I gotta repost these oneshots bro 😵‍💫

WORD COUNT // 2764 words

Milky puddles of darkness and shadow plaster the ghost halls of Jujutsu High. The wind howled a solemn sound outside the campus, the melody haunting the dormitory.

Everyone residing inside the school was under the spell of rest, but Megumi, unfortunately, was possessed to stay awake for the last few moons. 

He’s been under this curse of no rest for a week now, and his mind didn’t seize him a break. Itadori Yuuji was on his mind, someone he hardly could even call his friend due to how short they had known each other.

Megumi didn’t even know why he was so upset over that idiot anyways, he barely knew the kid. But his heart was still heavy. Just from the few encounters they had spent together, he felt a spark of friendship develops. 

He had met Itadori when he was in a state of loneliness and dread. Instead of nightmares, he was stuck with constant, possessive thoughts of the tragic event of Itadori’s death that he witnessed through his bloodied eyes. And because of…this he wandered the halls like an eclipsed spirit.

In the beginning, he was the sole first year, beside you, his girlfriend, at Jujutsu High. Until Itadori showed up. To also add to relevance, recently another student, Nobara Kugisaki, had also shown up soon before Itadori’s unfortunate, and juvenile death. But the side reason he had this hole in his chest, a hole of weighted dread, was because of your lengthy absence.

You had been sent on an internship of sorts a month before the Itadori Yuuji and Sukuna situation. The ‘internship’ was for you to join experienced Jujutsu sorceries on a long-time, long-distance mission outside of Japan.

Somewhere in India, he remembers you telling him. Through your constant text from him while out on this trip, you told him happily how you promoted a grade up due to your helpfulness and proof of development and confidence in your technique. He was proud of you of course, but your success also made him question himself.

Question himself on what he wanted to accomplish, that he was destined to succeed and produce things great like you have so far and young. You were a model student, it probably wasn’t best for him to compare himself. 

But he couldn’t help it.

At the beginning of the week, you had come back to the school and unpacked in your dorm. You arrived back at the school right after Itadori’s death was announced and arrived from your trip…to a solemn environment.

Megumi offered to help but you were persistent. He had honestly felt bad for your underwhelming arrival home. He had issues…expressing his emotions for you.

Expressing how happy he was when you walked through the door, how lonely he had been when you were gone. He had desperately desired you. And the first thing that came to his mind when he learned of Itadori's death was your physical comfort. But even when you arrived, he found himself not wanting to speak of his tragedy. He didn’t want to upset you when you arrived home. What Megumi wanted then, was for things to just go back to normal.

Back to just being content with you, and not worrying about other first years or depressing drama. He knew in the back of his mind that you all had to move in cause time and life would not stop to let him cover his feelings.

The Goodwill Event was happening sooner than he would like and all of you had to prepare instead of sitting on your asses with a frown. He knew this…but couldn’t change how he felt, and the lack of motivation in his step.

However, now he’s on a solemn walk that seems to never stop. And a dream that never ends. A headache that builds up like pouring rain, and a young, grievous heart tugging him. What had comforted him on these nights so far, far better than rest could, was watching you mindlessly sleep the night sky away and into a beautiful morning.

Now don’t get him wrong, he knows and acknowledges how creepy it is. Especially if he was caught. But you…just eased his mind, and he needed that, especially now.

Megumi walked the hall, passing spare dorm rooms in the process, barefooted. The carpet scraped his feet, and the moonlight’s flow showered through the connected windows that followed the hallway to the very end.

His steps begin to falter before coming to a slow stop. He stopped in front of a particular room. Reaching for the doorknob to check up on your sleeping figure, he hears a timid hiccup. 

His hands flinched away from the knob as if it had shocked his pale hand away. His brows curved. Are you crying? The halls were still, and the silence embodied him in full. He stood as still as a mannequin in front of your dorm door, waiting for an itch of a sound to escape the four walls. One second goes by and no sound emits, then another, and another, just a paused silence.

Megumi was getting anxious. Was he hearing things? He pulled at the loose strings of his grey sweatpants as he waited for a second longer for a noise, a sign of anything that he wasn’t going mad. The string twirled in his hand as he twisted and turned his sweatpants strings knot.

He must’ve been hearing things, he thought as he turned away. Maybe he was going crazy from lack of rest. Before he could think further a hearty sob transmitted through the door and to his ears, making them twitch ever so slightly. He shook his head, causing a tornado to form, and making his dark hair even more disheveled.

"Ah, fuck it.”

He curved the knob, and the door slightly creaked open. He peeked his head inside the dark, but familiar room. Megumi knew your dorm better than he knew his own. The mid-opened closet had various pictures of you and him, some with Satoru and the other second years. It was a bit dusty due to your lack of appearance as of late, so your window was left open, bringing in a melodic light from the moon, and a cool sigh of wind. His eyes shifted onto you, primarily. Moonbeams stained you, and crystallized tears poured from your eyes.

You had yet to notice his sudden appearance, so you continued to cry your song, and drain your tears. The wind shivered the leaves and tree branches outside your window. Megumi wasn’t sure if it was the wind or your presence that was bringing a chill up his spine. Your abrupt sob brings him back to attention. 

He scratched the back of his hair before suddenly making his presence known. He calls out your name gently so as not to startle you, causing the tears you allowed to fall on your face to come to a sturdy stop.

You turned to him, processing his appearance. Half his body was peeking in through your opened door. Your eyes were startled like a shocked kitten and they glistened from your tears and twinkled in the moonlight.

Your heart backflipped when you suddenly heard your boyfriend’s voice. Your stifled cries quickly came to stop as you stared from your bed, at your boyfriend of years, gripping your bed comforter. 

He questioned you, gently. “Why are you crying?“ 

You hiccup before responding, wiping your stained face. "It’s nothing to worry about Megumi, I just h-had a bad dream,” you mustered. Subconsciously, you scoot over, making room on your bed for Megumi. 

"Oh." He walks in fully, closing the door behind himself. "What about?”

He places his hand in the pockets of his sweats as you stutter, the cause of your tears picking back the pace. “Well, I-It was,” you hiccupped. The dream now was sort of a blur, at this point you didn’t know how long you were crying. 

Megumi stood in his spot, in front of where you laid on your bed, hand tense in his pocket, anxiously waiting for your answer. He assumed it was something awful that happened on your mission out of the country, and he felt bad that he hadn’t asked you when you’d first arrived home.

The things you must’ve seen, and the experiences you went through, must’ve been traumatizing.

His eyes narrowed.

And he wasn’t there for you. Megumi looked down at himself. Calling himself a bad boyfriend internally.

You shook your head, tears spilling everywhere on your comforter as you exclaimed the reason for your wave of sadness. The cause of the pain in your heart and dread. Megumi listened. Your voice was higher in pitch, and he wouldn’t be surprised if the entire school had heard you state your ridiculous, depressing, dream.

“It was about Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure!!”

His mouth went dry. “What….?”

His eyebrows curved, and his pine eyes emptied. You’re crying over an anime of all things? 

His mind was slowly processing the information as you explained your dream in further detail, wiping the tears forming. “After my internship in India, I rewatched that Stardust Crusaders episode where they traveled to India before bed and I guess I had a dream about it. The character’s death always makes me cry!”

You lean against the wall and your eyes water as you recall the characters that didn’t make it to Diamond Is Unbreakable.

Megumi stared at you, unimpressed. “That’s what you were crying about?“

You whined. "Don’t judge! It was sad, okay!” You reach and dig your hands into his right pocket and pull his hand to hold. Megumi didn’t protest. He still, however, stood in front of your bed while you rested your back against the wall against your bed. The only thing keeping you both connected was your entwined hands in the moonlight. 

His hands were so warm, you couldn’t replace them with anything.

Megumi didn’t say anything. You pouted at his disregard of a depressing scene from an anime you loved! You pull on his hand, pulling him closer, making his knee now touch your mattress. 

He stared into your eyes, while you stared up into his from your bed. You looked so cute pouting up at him, he thought. 

He squeezed your hand, and you soon squeezed back. A wave of calmness crossed you. You stared at Megumi. It was nice to see him again, see him in person. To touch him, and to really comfort him. Especially now, when he needs you the most. Your tone wavered.

“Why are you up anyway, Megumi? Bad dream too?“

Megumi was quiet again. He didn’t even get the chance to dream. He looked away from you, his eyes shifty. You sit up straight and pull him onto the bed beside you. The impact of his fall onto the bed makes it bounce for a second, and now he sits beside you, back against the wall. He was still quiet though. You rubbed the hand you held with your other. Leaning your head on his shoulder, your brows slump down as you stare at his perfect face, trying to read him.

To get him to say something to you. You rested your chin on his shoulder and ask again.

“Megumi? Why are you up anyway?”

Your question wasn’t answered. Instead of an answer or words, he abruptly kisses you, shutting you up also.

You freeze, his lips moved against yours passionately. You squeezed his hand as your eyes fluttered closed, and your heartbeat began to accelerate. You turned your head to the side for a better angle.

As he slowly pulled away, he rested his free hand on your cheek, blush spread on his face like cotton candy.

When your eyelashes fluttered open, his dark green eyes boldly stared back at you, and warmth filled your cheeks and stomach.

However, he still didn’t say anything, but his action spoke louder than any words. You whisper. "Is it about Itadori?” 

Megumi sighed and turned away from your eyes. Instead now found your locked hands more of an interesting sight at the moment. A second passes and a breeze comes inside. 

After half a minute, his lips begin to move. “I haven’t been able to sleep,” he admits, still staring at your entwined hands.

You look down, biting your bottom lip. nervously. What could you say? You didn’t know Itadori, but you weren’t out of the loop either. Megumi never told you how close he was beginning to feel toward Itadori. You honestly hadn’t witnessed your boyfriend develop a friendship with someone in a very long time. You were told by the second years how it was suspected that the higher-ups got Itadori killed, and you believed them because Satoru didn’t try to dismiss your questions on the rumor.

"I didn’t know Itadori as well as you did, but his death still upsets me,” you sympathized. “I would hate to lose you. I would hate to lose everyone! My parents, friends, teachers, everyone. I wouldn’t be complete without them. Especially without you Megumi, I would be far too upset.” You allowed your heart to spill. 

Before you could tear up further, suddenly, Megumi begins to chuckle, rubbing the tense hand he held. "Everything upsets you. Even anime characters’ deaths,” he teased.

He smiled at you. Your eyes soften at his expression. His dark eyes were exhausted and humble. It was dark inside, but the moonbeams on his face made him glow. You smiled back, bopping your nose with him. 

You bark at him. "No teasing!” You weakly shove his shoulder. Megumi does his fair share of teasing, he can be stoic at times but anyone who knows him knows he’s more than that. But you like him this way, you love when he allows himself to be vulnerable just for a tiny bit. 

Megumi however, liked how you expressed your emotions and thoughts so easily. How it was as easy as breathing for you to admit…that you’d miss him if he died. He loved how much you cared…

You slouch your shoulders. “But seriously Megumi. You can talk to me about anything, you know. I’m always here to listen to you,” you remind him, laying your head back on his shoulder, pouting. Grabbing his hand with the one he isn’t already holding, placing it on top of your entwined hands. 

Megumi sighed. He stared straight ahead at the wall in front of your bed. He nodded. "I know,” he said, barely audible. He leans closer to you. For a second there was an eternal silence that stared at the sight of you two. 

You snuggled your face further into his shoulder, and soon he ends up just wrapping his arm around you. In return you wrap your arms around his torso, unlinking your hands from his. Your eyes were getting heavy, and your throat was a tad dry but you didn’t want to end Megumi’s embrace.

You look up at his ghostly face. "Do you want to stay the night? And risk Gojō-sensei’s teasing once he catches us. Am I worth that big of a risk?” you teased him. 

Satoru had a habit of teasing you both, mostly Megumi, really only a Megumi, from any sign of intimacy you both showed. Rarely did you both do public displays of affection. Not only because of Satoru but he did play a minor role. 

You leaned up to sleepily kiss his cheek.

Megumi’s face was content and he didn’t fully react to your kiss. His thoughts were calm for once, and his heart wasn’t as heavy as before. Half of the dread he carried, dispersed. You were so lovely, he thought. Itadori was still on his mind, despite him being blessed to be in your embrace right now.

But for now, he’ll enjoy this moment, and allow himself to feel and accept the pain and remorse he feels for his friend.

He shook his head. “You’re worth every risk.”

You smile lazily at his response. Lack of rest and love behind your clouded eyes. You close them before whispering right into his ear, paralyzing him. “I love you, ‘gumi.” Your weight pulled at his shoulder. 

He leaned his head back against the wall, fluffy hair acting as a cushion. He pulled you closer to his warmth, embracing you as lovingly as he could. “I love you too,” he murmured.

“I think…I’ll stay the night,” he whispered. He gazed at you, but you were already fast asleep on his shoulder. The sight eased him to slumber.

S1 Qiūtiān reference sheet at last yayy :D

I decided to change her sweater, for the next chapters.

And yes, she's smoll.

[brightcalamity]

Spoilers about late game things:

Man, Wei is weird, isn't he? (This is a compliment) Making an opposite of a guy who is comically evil, and you get a guy who should be...comically good? I hope that's where they're going, because that's how I read him.

Quotes:

Wei:

Well, if you know my brother's birthday, you know mine. But in case you didn't, it's the 14th of Autumn. They say there was a solar eclipse that day.

So are Wei and Yan like those 7 brothers from Portia? Except instead of the colors of the rainbow, they're light and dark? Good and evil? Yan is the dark shadow that blocks out the sun that is Wei? But he's also the guy who shoplifts from Arvio? It actually makes me feel a tiny bit sorry for Yan. Like, was he capable of being any better than he is?

Our father used to always tell us, "Be hard on yourself, go easy on others." He always tried his best with Yan, but my brother... There was no getting through to him. When I moved in, I found engraved in his desk... "Go easy on yourself, go hard on others." How strange that he relishes in such behavior...

Cursed...

I was a guild commissioner previously; I'd regularly join expedition teams going in to the Peripheries. We'd always hire a crack team to fight alongside us. We were careful. Always did everything right. One excursion, my team abandoned me out there, having been paid off by Yan. That... is a story for another time...

Poor Wei...

⁠My brother did always enjoy playing his identity swapping games... Prior to this, the longest he ever got away with it was a month in middle school when I went away for the grammar rodeo... When I got back I had some choice words for him, all of which were carefully constructed semantically!⁠ ⁠ Long ago I had a true love by the name of Esmerelda. She, too, was taken from me by my brother. One day, i came home to find her furious. She claimed that I had said the most horrible things to her. I tried to explain that I have an evil twin...! But she wouldn't believe me...

This poor man....

We send Yan to jail, and we don't have to deal with him again. I can't help but think that Wei is going to be haunted by him for the rest of his life.

Don't worry about my brother coming after either of us. He's safely locked away in a maximum security prison, and his assets have all been frozen. So even if he did have some way to communicate with his shady associates, he'd have no leverage.

:( For your sake, Wei, I hope so.

Hugo:

I feel for Wei. I mean, somewhere, deep down, he's got to have some love for his brother. It must be hard to deal with family like that. People who have just completely lost their way...

I think Wei needs therapy.

Miguel:

Yes. You all are free from Yan's loathsome presence. I however, am forced to bask in it...

You made this bed, Miguel. No, I still feel sorry for you.

Qi:

The twin commissioners are a fantastic study in the nature vs. nurture issue. Of course, these two men have identical DNA, so what exactly led them to become such different people? Hypothesis one: it's the mustache.

I think this is a bias being expressed by the creators of the game which show why they only give us ugly facial hair options.

Unsuur:

With Wei around, it kinda feels like Yan is still a member of town. Except he's, like, good. Most bad guys we meet end up being misunderstood and eventually turn good. It's almost as if... The only way Yan could ever be good is if he were a different person completely. Hm...

This one is probably actual commentary, though, ha.

Venti:

I heard you got a new Commissioner! Did he increase your salary? New healthcare plan? Well, at the very least, is he providing free mustache removals?

Wait! My mustache conspiracy theory! There's more evidence!!!

Okay, I'm kind of bummed because I was searching the wiki for a dialogue line I think is kind of interesting. Like, he says Mi-an is teaching him about "fun." Like, he didn't get it before. He went to grammar contests as a kid. He reads in his spare time. I enjoy the idea of him being just so wholesome and Good that he's just as much of a weirdo as everyone else in town.

Yan also gets disappointed in you when you give him gold and he realizes you probably just found it instead of stealing it. He enjoys his evil. Getting something honestly makes him sick. The closest he comes to giving a shit is if you get to be besties with him and he says he'd try to betray you less than everyone else. He still betrays you basically just as much or even more than them (since you're pals with him).

Hm? Yes, of course, I cheat on the Builder Charts! You'd be a fool not to! Do you have any idea how hard it is to win that thing legitimately? Eh? You don't cheat? What's wrong with you? I thought you were cool! Oh, and don't even think of trying to turn me in. I'll lie!

Since he's evil in like a magic way (and a dumb way, since if he was less like he is, he'd get away with more) I bet he enjoys when he betrays you because you're pals. If he likes you, it's because of the way he sees himself in you. He makes assumptions about your behavior and is disappointed when you act differently than he would. He could have left Wei alone and done his evil, but instead he had to ruin his life over and over.

Anyway, where was I going with this? Oh, yeah. Wei should be his bright mirror. He takes up knitting as a hobby and ends up making baby blankets and caps for cancer patients on the side. He goes on the roller coaster and there's an accident but he fixes whatever broke before anyone got hurt. You see him checking out the new woods and he's walking through it and birds and desert hares flock to him.

If you're going to do the evil twin thing, I think you need to push it until it's ludicrous.

Here’s a preview of two open roleplays I'm doing but I have no one to play Macaque so I'm just adding to it every so often.

!!!YOU MUST BE 18+ TO ACCEPT. I DO WRITE DARK THEMES AND SOMETIMES WILL GO INTO SMUT YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!

DONE FOR- Macaque Spirit King Au

What’s a golden sage to do when he crash lands past a rather powerful barrier into a territory owned by another monkey like himself with his student/cub under the threat of getting taken from him? Surely he can’t be falling for the brooding Spirit King of the Macaques after being given a ‘threat’ to play nice under the barrier until it was naturally thinner to let him and his cub leave. Yep there is no way this golden sage was going to listen to his monkey brain screaming at him to submit and have the Spirit King’s cubs.

()()()()

Ruby and gold eyes gazed down at the sleeping bundle of dark brown fur wrapped up snuggly in a bright red scarf softly purring. “Looks like my luck got us in a bit of trouble huh?” The obviously male being questioned letting his pale skinned fingers gently caress the sleeping cub in his arms.

The being shifted slightly letting their golden tail reach over to a small bowl of dried fruit. The golden being looked over the fruit with a mental sigh before gently waking up the cub in his arms. “Time to eat Mk. Eat and then you can go back to sleep.”

The cub gave a chittering whine as being woken up eyes slightly glazed with a mild fever as the golden one grimaced. “I know bud I know but you need to eat something.” The golden one softly spoke picking out one of the less likely fruits to cause the cub to get vomit on top of the fever. ‘Alright let’s recap while the cub is busy… Mk and I crash-landed here after getting blown off course by one of Mei’s new gadgets we decided to help her test out. While I was a bit out of it from the hard landing the Kid had gone to get some help since we had no idea where we had landed. Once I got my barrings I followed Mk’s scent and came upon a group of Macaque Monkey Demons all huddled around a very scared Mk turned into a stone monkey cub… I snapped at seeing Mk in danger while surrounded by an unknown troop.’ The golden being recounted already feeling some regret for lashing out with his more demon monkey instincts.

It was a bit of a blur during that state of mind where he was fully submerged with his demon instincts to get his cub, kill or incapacitate any threats to his cub, find a safe space, make a temporary nest, then get off this island. It was a simple yet very basic logic. He didn’t get far into the plan before an all too familiar pain began to squeeze around his head stopping him cold in his tracks.

He vaguely recalled seeing a taller Macaque in black robes with six ears speaking the sutra of the cursed filet that heaven never took off his head. He had been reduced to his knees and pressing his forehead to the ground at the pain that caused golden blood to spill from under the band. The golden monkey had to snort at that. ‘They only stopped because my blood is of high value as a prefect elixir of immortality.’ The golden monkey darkly thought.

The small cub in his arms wiggling drew him from his thoughts as he carefully checked the young one’s cheeks. They were warm and the hint of sickness was coiled around the cub’s scent making the golden monkey grimace. Brining his thumb up to his mouth the golden sage bit the tip just enough to allow blood to slowly pool in a drop before bringing it to the young one’s mouth and letting only two drops of the golden blood drip into the cub’s mouth. He sighed in mild relief when the cub gained back a healthy flush to his face and looked to actually be sleeping instead of riding out the sickness in a sickness laced sleep. “Your going to be alright bud… I promise.” The golden sage spoke nuzzling his nose into the cub’s forehead.

ECLIPSE GEM

The idea:

Macaque being trapped in the Shadow Lantern like Genie as a punishment from the Jade Emperor while Wukong had been trapped under the mountain for sticking his nose into heaven. Wukong would end up free and go through the journey only to make a second bet with Budha that he could be a better Emperor than the current one all while doing it from the mortal realm instead of in heaven. Buddha takes the bet on the condition Wukong carves a monkey from a stone veined with gold and obsidian then encases it in the shattered remains of his egg with his staff is never be touched while nature takes its course. Mk would then be born several centuries later to a realm that has far more demons than canon with Wukong still in power with a council composed of three Celestials, Three Mortals, and Three Demons each randomly picked once every century. Red Son and Mei live with Wukong as his adopted niece and nephew after their parents went missing some decades back.

”Where one story ends, a new one begins and with that beginning, we must learn the ending and start this cycle over and over. But what would happen if one story simply continues after its long supposed end?”

A bustling metropolis in the dead of night, a golden bird flying through the streets and watching the people of many races happily mingling with joy. The bird touched down in a shaded ally transforming into a tall man with ginger hair, semi-tanned skin, dressed in a yellow hoodie with a peach symbol over his heart. loose grey pants covered his legs whihle a simple pain of black sneekers were on his feet as he stepped out of the ally and towards a local noodle shop.

“Welcome to Pigsy’s Noodles, home of the world’s longest noodles, what can I get ya this evening?” The pig demon manning the kitchen and counter asked the ginger male.

“I’ll just have my usual Pigsy.” the male replied with a chuckle.

The pig demon turned his head from his stove. “Oh its you Wu, come to check on the kid again?”

“I’m the leading expert in monkey demon’s development Pigsy, my partner would have been better but unfortunately they are MIA. So where is little Qi Xiaotian?” Wu asked while two bowls of noodles were set on the counter.

“Upstairs getting a bath by Tang. The kid came back from the market covered in watermelon juice after getting into a small fight with another demon child.” the Pig explained. “At this rate is might be easier for us to homeschool the kid until he’s able to stay calm in crowd without going into a frenzy.”

“All this from a six year old monkey demon?” Wu questioned.

“Yep, Tang and I think he might have been raised by some of the forest monkeys outside of the city before stumbling his way to the shop with a red and gold stick in his hands. Still can't believe one if my regular customers since I opened shop is an expert in animal demon child development.” Pigsy snorted.

“Have to make sure the children are being raised correctly without any influence to go back to bloody territory wars of the older generations. Prank wars tend to draw the line other than to do so with a neutral third party. Trust me on this, children learn from their parents on how the world works and it can lead to a lot of toxic views on the world as a whole.” Wu commented just as a brunette human with a small monkey-like child in his arms came down from the upstairs apartment.

The child lit up at seeing Wu reaching out for the ginger-haired man. “Ba!”

Wu chuckled taking the cub from the other man. “Hello again cub. Have you been good for Mr. Tang and Mr. Pigsy?” Wu asked with a small smirk.

The child nodded his head happily. “Learn... To... Speak... Learn... To... Read...” The child smiled while chittering between the words, his tail easily coiling around Wu’s arm for support.

“I have found out one thing. He hates baths.” the brunette, Tang, stated flopping down in his stool. “Won't go into any water that's higher then his knees when he is standing.”

As you can likely tell there is more to these but I'm just giving enough to give an idea of that they are about. If anyone is interested give me a message, comment down below or chat with me on discord.

[drawingducktalesducks]

Apologies if I've asked this before, I don't know how to check ask history, but what do you think of the theory that Lena isn't just a shadow? Theory goes that she's actually Poe's daughter, and actually Magica's niece, she just got messed up in a magic experiment and lost chunks of her memory. I'd love to see a comic of the three girls figuring that out, and/or finding Poe, and or shenanigans involving any of this XD

i have a fever lets see if i an be coherent about this :D

So I kinda really like that Magica and Poe are among the Loving Families Can Be Evil Actually rep crowd.

They WERE loving siblings. They had fun together! They looked out for each other and cared about each other! They even did the whole hold hands to help channel magic thing, like Lena does with HER friends and family!

Poe even jumped in front of the magic blast for his sister-Losing Poe has Magica on her knees begging her brother to come back, for someone to help save him, she'll give anything if only-!

Magica goes BEGH at friendship, but she and Poe were friends. They were family the way the McDucks are all family.

... result of this is, for me, it's like.... if Lena had EVER been part of that... if she'd been Poe's daughter, by blood or magic or adoption..

if she'd EVER been part of Magica's family...

I have a hard time imagining Magica doing what she did to Lena.

Or rather, it'd kinda take the fun out of her and Poe's brand of Evil Love if she did?

that scribble i did once of Webby wishing Lena had always had a loving family and meeting happily evil Lena De Spell is where my brain goes when it comes to Magica ever thinking Lena as her actual niece. Can you imagine Magica being so proud of her niece's gruesomely florid poetry about destroying a neighboring village? Her glee teaching Lena how to use Poe's amulet to curse people?

but if we're trying to fit into actual canon instead of an alternate reality...

It's not impossible.

Maybe, oh, Poe made a shadow kid for himself one day, out of boredom, or grabbed a village orphan after helping to orphan them.

He tried his best but his idea of fun was terrifying and the kid/shadow (Lena) kept trying to run away bc yeah, being adopted by the De Spells was better than getting turned into a frog, but not by a whole lot tbh

and Magica put up with it to humor her brother, even if she found 'it' annoying

But then once Poe was gone, the kid was just a nasty reminder that he WAS gone, so while she couldn't bring herself to, like, bump if off bc what if Poe comes back someday what if-

so just she punted it into the shadow realm for safe keeping or whatever.

Then later she needed something to have a body so her shadow could ride around on it until the next eclipse and hey, turns out the scrap of Poe's shadow/magic/whatever that Lena got from him isn't as bound to the dime as the rest of Magica is! Perfect!

she punts Lena back out of the shadow realm and hitchhikes on her 'niece' for the next fifteen years, getting more and more bitter that this little wretch is still here when Poe is not

cue banishing and rejecting Lena during the shadow wars. wee!

Poe would be turning over in his grave if she'd ever had the chance to make one for him

That's a thing I could imagine, I guess.

Harder for me to imagine Lena caring one way or the other.

Canon her doesn't seem to have had any happy family memories before getting rolled up with the McDucks/Sabrewings. Missing memories is a really hard to pull off without a lot of set up and care, otherwise it just comes out of nowhere and feels... weird.

My brain is better at branching off of canon than completely rewriting it anyway, so for me, if Lena was Poe's daughter at some point, she didn't enjoy it

And if she DID lose memories or something, her distrust and dislike of Magica still wouldn't make her super eager to meet Magica's brother either, technical dad status or no. More of an Oh Great Now There's Two Of Them situation

She might help Magica look for him someday, out of shared sisterly understanding, maybe. Since she has Violet now. And is SUPER protective of her own sister.

Losing a sibling/fear of losing them could be a shared thing for her and Magica. Or a way for her to understand Poe.

like, sure he was EVIL, but he saved his sister, and that's something she could understand and appreciate

Or maybe if Webby had the idea that getting Magica's brother back would make Magica slightly less inclined towards raining vengeance and destruction on the world in general and the Mc Ducks in particular.

Lena might not buy that idea, but it wouldn't be out of character for her to groan and go along with it, if Webby's the one asking.

Honestly though... I feel like Ducktales used up it's one good "bring back a supposedly dead love one" card on Della, and that was a very good spending of it. I can't quite get my brain to imagine Poe returning.

Well. Maybe tragically. As normal, non-talking raven. With great hair.

hypothetically though...

Poe: Lena... I AM your father!

Lena: pass

Webby: What should we do now we found your dad???

Lena: Put Him Back

Violet: Wait, Lena. You cannot shrug off your family so lightly...

Lena: ...

Lena: ...Our fathers would like him to sign this adoption form, first.

Lena: OR we could just turn him back into a raven. you know. save on paperwork

Magica: Oh my villainous heart- she really IS a De Spell!

Lena, charging her magic: Two birds with one spell. I bet that'd work
