#sun wukong is jealous in this fic

[smilesthroughfandoms]

Sun Wukong invites himself to Bai He's showcase and quickly discovers he is not wanted there. But when something of Bai He's goes missing, will The Monkey King be able to help the little girl? Is his help wanted in the first place?

[mehiwilldoitlater]

remember that ask about yuán fèn being able to communicate with sun wukong's spirit, well how bout' u mix it with ur last sad fic and make the reader a reincarnation of that guy's dead wife, not that i also see him giving yuán fèn advice on his relationship and look at them and realize they look at each other the same way he and her past self did

Yuán Fèn never liked to be jealous. He hated it, finding that emotion despicable.

But it was always natural to him, feeling the urge to hide you from every possible suitor's eyes, even now that you were completely and utterly his own. You loved him, and he loved you, that was all.

But he had instincts, and it's complicated to control them or satisfy them when the one that causes this emotion is a spirit that lives in his head.

When did Wukong start to look at you in that way? When did it happen? When he merged with him? When you both vowed each other your loves? Or it was something that had grown with time?

Despite his desire to attack something that was more in his head than outside of it, he had noticed that the looks on the sage's face weren't of desire or longing; they were pityful looks, like those of someone who is regretting something.

A few times I wanted to approach the subject to understand his strange new obsession with observing you, but it was always not the right time or just an avoided matter like many others. His eyes looked at you like some old man that observed the sky that changed towards time, and he wanted to know why.

Like every time he found him there, in the side of his eyes, looking at you. He was sitting on the wooden porch of your new shared house; the sunset colored the sky like the day that he had fought his shell in his mind. You were there, in the distance, playing some games with a few of the small monkeys, laughing and trying to catch them. On the sage face, a small smile.

"I know you're in my head, but I would appreciate it if you could stop staring at her."

He waited for a response from the former king, only to meet silence. He sighed, explaining why he was so difficult. He followed him to his spot on the porch, looking at you falling in the grass while a small monkey had climbed on your chest.

"At least you could tell me the reason?"

"The smile is the same."

Yuán Fèn looked at him confused. He expected everything—some remarks, a stupoid joke—instead he was talking like that now.

"...Same?"

"Yes, the same... I wonder... but if it's true, or the karma it's an amazing thing, or It just love to play dirty games."

"Oh, please!" he burst out, passing a hand on his head. "Spill it out! Tell me and let's get it over it!"

A frown appears on Wukong's face. That was hard to face for many reasons: restment, some shame, some desire to Just don't think about it. But mostly, it was the fact that it was all his doing and it was hard to digest.

"You remember my wife, Kid?"

"The untold story, yes, what about it?"

"And you know how cycles and reincarnation work, right?"

Yuán Fèn looked at him, trying to connect. Once it was done, his surprised expression turned into a sad one.

"But... she came from another world... she can't possibly..."

"That made it worst... She wasn't made to come here, but something still brought her back here, to you...and to me."

"Sadly," he continued, with a grin that showed all of his pointing teeth. "I won't be the one enjoying her! Good for you, guess."

The younger monkey wanted to make a comment about the comment but found himself uncapable to even do that. He felt just a sense of sadness and cruelty in these big schemes.

Once, they were lovers. Now he was just a projection of his mind, and you didn't even know. Was she still asleep? Maybe she just didn't want to see him... Was she still angry or in pain for being put second to the monk? Tò face death for his plan?

He pondered a little... and then he went to talk with you.

///

"Are you sure about it?"

"Yes."

"You're trembling..." His hand caressed your cheek, trying to bring comfort to your unspoken fear.

"I just... I don't want anything to happen to you. And... well, I'm going to talk to him... it's just really a big thing for me."

He knew it was crazy, but something. He talked to Wukong, asking him about it, and he just stayed there, watching buffled about it. He made the Great Sage buffled... That's new...

"I know, it's crazy... But...he would make him happy, I think."

"Well, if it's a way for him to stop his midnight talk with you, then okay! Let's do it! and I watched the Exorcist! So I know what to do in the worst scenario!"

He laughed about it; he really didn't want to know what your plan was in case the thing didn't work.

But he loved you, and he knew that he would let anything happen to you, not even by his own hand...possessed hand.

He took a big breath, closed his eyes, and stratified to concentrate. He needed to clean his mind from every doubt, emotion, and thought—he needed to make space.

A wave reached to him, and he felt like he was going underwater. There was no right, left, up or down, only the void. This is where Wukong belonged, and now... he needed to take his place.

When Yuán Fèn opened his eyes back, you knew that what was in front of you wasn't him. His warm eyes were so fiery that they could set you whole on fire; his kind expression now was stoic, fuelled with an ancient power that could have crushed you any time.

So that was the feeling when you were in front of Sun Wukong.

You tried to look as normal as you could while those two golden and blood-red eyes kept on studying you, but you only felt the urge to run and hide, to call back Yuán Fèn and call you out...but you couldn't, because you too knew that it was important.

"Ehm..." you cleared your voice. "G-great sage? ...Mister SWukong?...whoever lives in my fiancè head? I'm... well, I guess you know me."

His hands grasped you by your shoulder; he held you mid-air, analyzing you with a new look. He was scared; he was shocked. He was speechless. And you were scared—so fucking scared.

"Hold on, hold on, calm down, mister Sage. I don't think it's-"

Before you could really call for Yuán Fèn, you could feel his arms around you, holding you with desperation, like you could disappear. His hands trembled, holding your dress to the point that you thought that he wanted to rip it off. His chest trembled so much... and his hot tears were falling on your shoulder.

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry, my love! It's all my fault!"

His loud cry, his hiccups, his moan of pain—this pain—this was Wukong pain. After so many years...

"You were right; you were always right! I was mistaken! I just wanted the world to see that we were important and that you were important! But... but I dragged you down. I should have protected you, listened to you, and failed as a husband."

He cried louder, harder, collapsing on his knee and bringing you down with him. So it was true...he wnated justice for himself and his wife, just like the book said...

"My precious one, my only light, my one treasure! I ruined every chance; I ruined you! IO wanted to have our life back, and instead I... lost you again! Please! Plase, I'm sorry!"

You didn't know what to do or what to say—he was desperate. There was no word you could say to a pain that was there, lingering and fermenting for this long. You were afraid to touch him even. You prayed to have at least one idea, one suggestion!

Maybe someone responded... or just gave you the right words to say.

"My beloved..." His eyes widened; your pained expression was so soft in his eyes for his pain and desperation. "There's nothing to apologize...not anymore. We had given the miracle to be found by each other, and I'm grateful for that. I had always loved you, and forever I will."

Your hand gently caressed his pained expression, caressing away those fat tears. His hand stopped you from leaving his face, holding like trying to melt in you.

"Forgive me."

"I forgive you."

"I was so lost..."

"Now we're found."

And when he hugged you, you felt like a weight on your shoulder, like someone pulling him closer.

///

When he woke up, his face just hurt. He couldn't open his eyes without the need to wash them, and he felt like he needed to drink an entire lake. His head on your legs, your hand caressing his hair.

"...What happened?"

"You passed out after crying for hours."

"That explains why I feel my eyes hurt."

You hummed; keep on caressing his features, now more relaxed than ever. He took your hand, placing a kiss on your knuckles. Somehow, this scene seemed nostalgic, like you saw it before...maybe in another life.

Despite the curious thing, you fell into bliss and were at peace with yourself.

Summaries:

Rewrite an old fic, another poll made.

Just a dark au idea I had randomly- Fresh from the battle of Mt. Othys, Octavian receives a warning of a camp of long thought extinct Greeks that will destroy their camp. So, the Romans do a slaughter of most of the campers...including the son of Poseidon.

A sequel to Terms of Agreement: Annabeth is finally going on her quest and not even the blood on her hands will bring her down. The father of the demigod she and Clarisse unknowingly worked together to kill might though.

A/B/O AU: Qi Xiaotian introduces himself to his new hot next door neighbor by going into heat and triggering his neighbor's rut. Yes, he probably shouldn't have been working on moving into his new apartment when he felt himself start to slick, but he figured that he had time. Except he didn't. At least the neighbor he banged was nice and asked consent and even finished moving his boxes in, but hopefully Xiaotian will never talk to him again to bury this awkward memory... Except Red keeps popping up. (Smut.)

Face to face with the fact that her perfect sacrifice decided to rewrite the universe rather than do his duty, Nuwa decides to learn more...and hopefully remind herself that the world matters beyond the cycles.

The aftermath of @shitty-fanfic-prompts: Kung Fu Panda but the prophecy about a warrior made of white and black defeating Lord Shen was about a snow leopard and not a panda. More precisely, it was about Tai Lung.

AU where LBD wins... except the universe decides to give the heroes another chance by sending Wukong back before the pilgrims sealed away LBD. In Tripitaka's mind, his eldest disciple suddenly turned around and slapped him.

AU where Sun Wukong is a beautiful human king serving under the Jade-Faced Princess. Peng gets jealous of this new mortal, but a plot by DBK’s brother Ruyi accidentally mixes things up. Sun Wukong suddenly finds himself a monkey, and Jade drops dead.

The Traffic Light Trio, Sun Wukong, and Macaque are caught by an artifact that forces them to reveal truths about themselves. Harsh stuff comes up.

Red Son is a prince. Which means that he can break curses that can only be undone by kisses from royalty. But it's weird that the Dragon Girl and Noodle Boy keep getting cursed like that...

After learning about his parentage, Mikey sneaks inside an art auction of Hamato Yoshi’s art, learning both about his father and Draxum.

A unsolved mystery show wishes to interview April on the anniversary of her mother's death. When Leo's invited along, he suspects that these detectives are more than what they seem.

[trashlama]

Hi would it be alright if I ask what wips are you working on ?

just wanna make sure I don’t in a request that someone else already sent in XD

hope your doing ok :)

Thank you for your concern! My carpal tunnel has been approving somewhat these last few weeks! Hopefully I'll be able to find some free time this weekend while I'm off to knock down some of this list.

Also if you do happen to send in an idea similar to someone else's; don't worry too much about it because I don't mind, I like the challenge~ Duplicates give me the opportunity to try out different ideas that I may have for a single plot/theme.

Btw sorry about not really posting anything these last few weeks... I kinda forgot to pay my wifi bill so I didn't really have internet for awhile until I got paid again... Anyways—

Here we are!

P.S. I might add more later on.

Azure could probably be convinced to go along with macaque jealousy plan, and he could be manipulated to think he could use this to drive wukong to his arms like his reasoning in the love potion fic. However macaque who knows wukong better, could guess this will just cause wukong to hate azure. So he gets to make wukong jealous and knock out his greatest competition

But at the same time, i dont think a normal macaque could last long enough for wukong to hate azure. Even wukong looking slightly sad would have mac running to wukong

Excellent point, Anon! If Macaque were actually trying to make Sun Wukong jealous, he probably would not last long enough to truly accomplish his goal if he were to choose Azure as his partner..

First of all, without the love potion, he wouldn't be lovey dovey enough to really be convincing. Sure he could hang around Azure and spend all his time with the lion and act like he likes him.. but the thing that drives Wukong the craziest is when Macaque is practically hanging off of Azure, when he pays absolutely NO attention to Sun Wukong who is nearby (not even a twitch of his ears to betray that he's listening for him), and how sickeningly physical Macaque is with the lion... without the love potion, Macaque wouldn't have any inclination to do these things. At this point in his life he's a much more reserved person, so he barely does these sort of things with Sun Wukong who he actually does love. Being so overt with Azure probably wouldn't even cross his mind.

Anyway, eventually he'd get sick of the ruse and drop the whole thing before Wukong really gets a chance to truly despise Azure.

[peachshadows]

Which of your AU‘s cause you the most brainrot? Like- if you had to rank them?

also:

🍍

🍍 What kind of AUs do you like? Are there any AUs you hate or just generally have beef with?

Well firstly that's kinda difficult cuz at first it was the sun's spouse (like I already have 20 chapters outlined for that fic) then i shifted my attention to sundown era and sunlight au like i brainrotted super hard on those two cuz I couldn't stop thinking of dimensional travel au's and not finding any of it on ao3 is tragic cuz that's honestly one of my fav type of au's. But currently I'm brainrotting on sv rip off and trying to incorporate as much as jealous! and pining!Wukong in that fic. It just depends on the timeline and which au I was more fixated on

As for the ask I have a lot of favorites, definitely time travel au, reincarnated au, hanahaki au, soulmate au, royal au, arrange marriage au, and so much more! I just love love love those au's but if there's one thing I absolutely despised is chatfic au's like power all to you if ur into that stuff but it just always feels ooc for me so I can never get into it

[ask games]

[skellebonez]

Let's also avoid being too obvious:

Goliath for the character meme and Moonstone for the ship

MoonStone!

when I started shipping it if I did: A few months ago, I had a convo with Bucky and we went "you know, what if Sun Wukong wanted to go back to the moon to visit?" and it spiraled from there!

my thoughts: I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.

What makes me happy about them: I love the idea of two people who have lost so much, friends/family and an old flame, finding a new person to start a new chapter in their life while also keeping the past chapters in their hearts. Something I haven't gotten to writing yet is that SWK is incredibly supportive of Chang'e in her mourning and remembering of Houyi. He's not a replacement, her ex-husband will always have a place in her heart, and in turn he is thankful to him for taking care of her while she was with him.

What makes me sad about them: They have lost. SO MUCH. They need all the emotional support they can get.

things done in fanfic that annoys me: There's like 2 fics so nothing yet fkjkldj. Though I would be miffed if someone wrote a fic where SWK was jealous of Houyi or something like that.

things I look for in fanfic: I just WANT fanfic for these two fdkfdkls.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: I have so many SWK ships that there are tooo many options for him. For Chang'e, I do enjoy BlackBerry (Macaque) and her ships with Spider Queen and Scorpion Demoness!

My happily ever after for them: They go between Earth and the Moon, family belonging to both, finally married and Li-Yan happy and healthy (Li-Yan is their oc kid from Celestial Crossing for anyone who doesn't know).

who is the big spoon/little spoon: Depends on the day!

what is their favorite non-sexual activity: They adore gardening together!

and

Goliath!

How I feel about this character: THIS MAN DESERVED BETTER. He was in the show and hardly got any TIME.

All the people I ship romantically with this character: ... *looks at SWK* ... LISTEN... I BLAME LACE. (But honestly, I more so just ship him with other people's OCs)

My non-romantic OTP for this character: He and Huntsman are BUDDIES. Brosefs. THE BROEST. They care for each other.

My unpopular opinion about this character: I don't know if he is popular enough to have an unpopular opinion?

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: SPOTLIGHT EPISODE OF ANY KIND.

my OTP: Goliath/Meiyun is kiiinda winning right now.

my cross over ship: .... I didn't have one before, but now.......... for some reason I think shipping him with Kronk would be HILARIOUS.

a headcanon fact: He runs a book club that Red Son is part of online. No one knows!

[tigerseye46]

I was re-reading the jealous Pigsy peachbun fic where Pigsy is jealous of Macaque. So how about Jealous Pigsy with hugs 4, 16 and touching 30?

Mmmm, jealous Pigsy. I combined this with another idea I have. Also I was remembering smth an anon sent me weeks after that fic so I put it in.

TW: Brief mention of death

Hugs 4. comforting hugs Hugs 16. ‘not wanting to let go’ hugs Touching 30. grabbing onto their arm

——-

Pigsy wasn’t perfect. Far from it. In fact it was his imperfections that drove people away. He had a hard time admitting to people’s faces that he loved them and preferred subtle acts to show his affection.

He was surprised he had people at all since he was such a grump and yelled more than he praised. It was a surprise the king chose to enter his life and while it was only because he was training Xiaotian, the king made an effort to talk to him.

At first, he was appalled at having the monkey around. The monkey decided to put his kid in danger rather than handling any mess himself. Then Sun Wukong’s walls began to drop and Pigsy found himself falling. The king was brilliant, funny, charming and he cared about those around him. It caused a flutter in his heart.

He was never going to admit this to the king. Not like he had a chance with the Great Sage.

Then Macaque joined the group.

If Pigsy was being honest, he loathed Macaque. After learning what he had done to Xiaotian he refused to stop scolding and screaming at him which earned him some amusement from the demon.

Even when the other began to change he still didn’t trust him. And while he trusted the king enough to watch over him, he didn’t trust the man himself. No doubt Macaque would betray them.

And the closeness between Macaque and Wukong was bothering him. He was aware they had a past together. A past they previously thought broken beyond repair but were now attempting to fix.

It made his heart clench and jealousy coursed his veins when they smiled and laughed with each other while Pigsy was stuck on the sidelines not receiving a drop of affection or care from the king.

He doubt the other gave him much thought. Why would he? He wasn’t important. He was just a simple demon who got angry at everyone who came close. Sun Wukong would rather be with someone like Macaque (damn manipulator) than him.

They had a past with each other that was more important than whatever the pig had with the king.

But Pigsy also had a past with Wukong. While it took awhile for the memories of his past life as Zhu Bajie to flood back in, it happened. It wasn’t easy to sort through all that information and… his death but he managed. Then he decided he was going to keep his mouth shut.

Zhu Bajie’s insecurities melded with his own from overthinking and made the problem worse. It was apparent that both of them didn’t think highly of their relationship with the king and wanted more. But Zhu Bajie had caused so many problems and had so many flaws that Sun Wukong was infuriated by and was most likely waiting for the moment the pig would take the hint and just go away. While Pigsy was well Pigsy. Both hardly worth the effort.

He’s certain the second he told the king he would pack up his bags and leave, never to be seen again, and run away with Macaque. So he didn’t bother to tell him about the recent revelation. Even if he wasn’t getting what he wanted from the relationship, it was better this way.

Watching Macaque and Wukong interact in the Anti-Gravity Arcade made him hiss. The kids were with Sandy partying up a storm while he was with Tang on the sidelines. The whole place was too noisy for his tastes but he had been outvoted.

So he remained there with arms crossed until there was tug on his arm. “Huh?”

Wukong was in front of him with a smile. “Come on, Pigsy. Join me.”

“Ummm… for?”

“Play some games with me.”

“Games aren’t my thing…”

“Even with that you could play with me.”

Tempted to accept but thinking about how much he didn’t deserve to be in the king’s presence was what caused him to decline. “Nah, I’m good. You have fun though.”

The king frowned then shrugged it off. “Alright. Come on, Macaque.”

“Right by your side,” Macaque replied and walked off with him.

Pigsy huffed as the two chatted. Tang nudged him. “You know if you said something then you wouldn’t have to be jealous.”

“Shaddup Tang.”

“Come on, Pigsy. It would be so much easier if you admitted how you feel.”

“Never gonna happen. He has Macaque.” And if Pigsy confessed he would ruin the relationship he had with Wukong. Combined with him being a reincarnation of the person Wukong hated the most would result in the king never coming back.

“They just seem to be friends.”

“You’re an idiot. They obviously like each other.” The pig scowled when Wukong’s cheeks turned pink after Macaque leaned in and whispered something.

“If you say so.”

The pig bobbed his head as a response. He never had a chance. They had been through so much together and while it ended sour, it was better than the nuisance Pigsy was as Zhu Bajie.

If Wukong knew then he would be so angry at hanging around the pig he despised. But what if he already knew? Then he was only staying around for the others.

Pigsy was fine with this even when his chest constricted and he couldn’t help but think how this would be ruined if he slipped up once.

With Macaque’s presence, he didn’t feel as if he necessarily fit in with the group. Despite the rocky start, Macaque was livelier and more open with affection compared to Pigsy. Pigsy felt his own ways of affection came off as genuinely mean but it was how he was.

Days passed and it was harder to hide his jealousy and aggression. The others asked him about it but he didn’t answer.

Eventually Macaque put him aside and questioned, “What is your problem?”

“What problem?”

“You clearly have a problem with me. So spit it out.”

“Wow. I wonder why.”

“I’ve changed.” “Doesn’t mean I trust you.” Doesn’t mean I trust the boss to be near you.

“Why? I’ve changed. I don’t want revenge anymore.”

“That has yet to be seen. The others fell too easily for your trap. When the others realize, when Wukong realizes, they’ll never go near you again then Wukong will be with me instead,” he blurted out. His face shifting to red as he processed his words. Macaque cackled and rolled on the ground. “Shut up!”

“You- you think we’re together? Of all the assumptions you could make. You- you do realize we’re brothers, right?”

Pigsy’s eyes widened. “What?”

“We’re brothers,” he repeated. “Have you not been paying attention?”

“I-” The pig recalled their earlier conversations. He had heard the word ‘brother’ be thrown around but he thought it was of the respect variant, not the literal variant. “Literally?”

“Yes. No wonder he likes you. You’re an idiot.”

“Oh...”

Macaque patted his back. “I’ll send brother out here so your stupid mind can start working.”

“I...” Then Macaque strolled away with a laugh.

Okay so they were brothers. Actually brothers. Yet it didn’t get rid of the other thing he was afraid of. The Zhu Bajie part. If he admitted it to Wukong then their relationship would crumble.

Sun Wukong spotted Pigsy and skipped over to him. “Hey, Pigsy!”

“H-hi...”

“Macaque said you needed something.”

“Er... no. I’m fine.” “Really? Because you’ve been acting weird. Do you need a hug?”

“Ummm... sure?”

The king grinned and he hugged him, running a hand up and down his back for comfort.

The pig buried his snout in the other’s shoulder. He didn’t want to let go. It was one of the few times he could experience his warmth so he would treasure it. He would never have this again if he revealed the memories of his past life. He couldn’t let it slip.

Little did he know Wukong was staring at him with a longing look.

‘All To Myself’

"Come on, Blakey! I just want to see you guys practice!!" Yang complained as she reached into the fridge for a sports drink. Smile Bomb was having a practice session today, and Yang loved to hear her favorite girl's band play.

"I still haven't asked the band if you are allowed at practices. I'm sure no one would mind but Sun. Neptune has a thing for muscular blonds, and we wouldn't want the Monkey King to get jealous." Blake replied, rolling her eyes at her own joke.

"He likes muscular blond boys, though, so why would Sun get jealous of me?"

"Honestly? Because you have better abs than he does!" Blake giggled. It was Yang's turn to roll her eyes.

"Is that really my fault? I'm not gonna steal his squish or anything! I've got a diamond, what do I want with a sapphire?" Yang smirked and winked at Blake, who was not expecting a response so smooth. Gods, her new girlfriend sure knew how to surprise her.

The few months since that outdoor concert in Vale seemed like seconds and ages simultaneously. She could not believe that some random fan hitting on her had become her girlfriend. Then again, Topaz had seen the spark as soon as the two of them walked into his coffeehouse. That guy was usually right about things of that nature.

"I'll call them and ask if it's okay Honeypot." Blake finally conceded. "You'd better not distract me, though."

"I wouldn't dream of it, Glucose!" Yang grinned as she flexed her right arm. Blake's eyes turned to hearts at that. Blake rolled her eyes once she came to her senses and left the room to make her phone call.

Yang tapped away at her Scroll, playing a game to pass the time. One of Smile Bomb's tunes, 'Who Do You Love' began playing on their small radio, and Yang danced and swayed in her seat. It wasn't her most favorite, but it definitely jammed.

Blake reappeared, shoving her Scroll in her pocket. "Everyone seems okay with you hanging out. Just try not to show Sun too many muscles. He's a bit of a diva."

"Not as much as Scarlet."

"Is anyone as big a diva as Scarlet?" They shared a laugh as they walked out the door. They hopped into Blake's car and drove off.

\/\/\/\/\/

"Ooh, we have an audience for today!" Scarlet raved as Blake and Yang walked into his living room. The tattooed boy with the blazing red hair hugged Yang tightly. He loved Blake's girlfriend almost as much as Blake did, just in a vastly different fashion.

"Guys, I think there are too many women in here. We're gonna be outnumbered if this keeps up." Sage joked, his thick baritone echoing in the mostly empty room. They were still setting up, so most of the gear was sprawled around the area. The gigantic green-haired boy walked up and hugged Yang tightly.

"Ow! Sage, you're crushing my life! Ease up, my dude!" Yang joked, purposely straining her voice. Sage chuckled and rolled his eyes. "But really, do you ever stop working out? You have more muscles than Toguro!"

"I aspire to have a body like Toguro! Except for the stretchy demon muscles, of course! WAIT! You know about anime?" Sage was taken aback.

"I used to watch brawlers with my kid sister, and Yu Yu Hakusho was our favorite until Gurren Lagann gave her an affection for mecha. Why do you think I fell in love with your band?"

"I figured it was because we were all sexy as hell!" He fired back, Yang rolling her eyes.

"I mean, of course, you are all fine, but I only have eyes for Blake!" She replied.

"Aww, that's so cute it's stupid!" Neptune mentioned as he walked in from the next room. "Sun should be out in a minute. I think he was using the bathroom."

"You know exactly what he was doing in the bathroom..." Sage injected. Blake laughed and Scarlet glowered at Neptune.

"I hope you cleaned up after yourselves!" The redhead complained. Neptune crossed his arms.

"Why do you just assume we were up to no good?" The blue-haired boy retorted. Yang could hardly take these boys' shenanigans.

"You're either up to no good or good-good when you're alone together, and both of those mean the same thing, Poseidon." Blake shot off as she tuned her guitar, strumming a sour chord for good measure. Scarlet and Sage burst out laughing. A sweat drop appeared on the back of Neptune's head.

He knew there was no winning this argument.

"You all are just mad because we're so in love!"

"I'm plenty in love with Sage, but I try to keep my Cutlass to myself when we aren't at home in bed! As much as I love the Greatsword, I don't want to disrespect someone's house!" Scarlet replied, another round of laughter filling the practice room.

"Hey, we can't control when his Staff or my Trident call out to one another!" Neptune tried to keep a straight face, failing when Blake made a face at him. She loved her bandmates, she truly did, but they were a neverending fountain of crotch humor.

"It's a pain in the neck being surrounded by four horny dudes all the time. Must be the reason I love ladies..." She mused. Yang grinned at the remark. Neptune grabbed his bass guitar and slapped its strings. Sun finally appeared and hooked the microphones into his drums. And finally, their practice began.

A few songs in, Blake sang lead on a new song the five of them had been working on, 'This Means War'. Yang's eyes turned to stars at the sultry sounds of Blake's beautiful singing. The way her upper ears twitched as she sang drove Yang wild. Was this woman a goddess?

Gods, Yang was so lucky.

"Of course you realize, THIS MEANS WAR!" Blake sang, the finishing line of her part. The boys sang a chant to finish the song out. Yang clapped raucously for her favorite girl and her favorite band.

"Break time! The Monkey King needs a quick snack!" Sun announced, setting his sticks down atop one of his floor toms.

"Your snack better not be the Ocean, Wukong." Scarlet snapped, Sun rolling his eyes.

"We took care of that earlier. Gods, we're not that horny!" Sun saw Blake roll her eyes at him, but he decided against making another comment since his growling stomach would not let him think of one.

Blake sat on the couch next to Yang, tossing one arm around her. Yang snuggled into her gorgeous girlfriend.

"I'm sorry about all the junk jokes, babe," Blake apologized. She'd gotten used to it and forgotten how awful they could be.

"It's fine, Bee Vomit. I mean, if I had a dongle I'd name it something cool, too! The Golden Dragon, probably." Yang joked, causing Blake to giggle.

"You're so silly, Glucose!" Blake snuggled closer to Yang. "I love you, Goldie!"

Yang's heart skipped a beat or two at that. "I love you too, Kitty Cat." She replied, lifting her head up to kiss Blake. The soft kiss turned into another one, and suddenly they were making out on Scarlet's couch. Blake pulled away.

"Perhaps we shouldn't disrespect Scarlet's couch." She suggested. Yang nodded, and the two returned to their cuddles.

"I appreciate you not defiling my couch, especially since my bathroom has already been sullied today," The redhead commended, winking at the girlfriends. "Also, Sun has sufficiently stuffed his face, so what say we get back to practice?" With that, Blake hopped off the couch and scooped up her guitar. The band played the song they were named for, one of Yang's all-time favorites. Then they went into 'All to Myself', her absolute favorite of theirs.

Yang was thrilled to bits. She was glad the guys didn't mind having her around. Maybe she could get backstage at their concerts now. That would be super fun. \/\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/

Day 4: Team SSSN Member

I had a load of fun on my last challenge writing about the band Smile Bomb, so I figured I’d write more of their shenanigans. It also gives me an excuse to write three of my favorite ships at one time, not to mention make Team SSSN make a bunch of crotch jokes.

This fic ties into ‘Feeling’ and ‘Still Alive’ from my last challenge. ‘Smile Bomb’ would also be a great name for this, but I used that name for another fic that has nothing to do with these ones. Plus i ran out of fitting BigBang songs.

Bumbleby always seems to work their way into this day of the challenge. At least, the last two times. XD

Oh, and since June is Pride Month, HAPPY PRIDE MONTH EVERYONE! I will try to write as much gay stuff as I can. I usually do so anyway, but I’ll try a bit harder this time I guess.

[earl-of-221b]

Tagged by @laryna6 to say what I’m working on/ have been working on/ should probably stop procrastinating on

1) supernatural fic

 I’ve been working on this one supernatural fic (working title ‘Tripwire’) that has three arcs (I think.) It’s a destiel fic.  I’ve only written one arc in about half a year last year and haven’t done anything with it since. First chapter deals with how Cas meets Dean in random circumstances. By second chapter, there’s a big time skip wherein Dean wakes up with no memory and Cas has already fallen in love with him.

The following chapter, it goes straight back to where chapter one ends off. And then goes back to the timeskip next chapter. Yeah - both timelines are running concurrently - past Dean meeting Cas for the first time and getting into shit, and then present Dean not understanding why this Castiel cares about him so much and trying to figure out what happened. The timelines get closer and closer together (reveal/back up information at the same time) to the point where it converges - Dean loses his memory/Dean is about to find out why he lost his memory. The end of timeline one should fit immediately to the beginning of timeline 2, chapter 2. So it’s a pretty different structure I’m trying out, instead of just spamming flashbacks like in Monster lol. 

The actual story I might be a little cliched - Cas is in a Shadowy Organisation, has been indoctrinated into it his entire life, has Super Spy Powers. Goes into a fancy black tie event To Kill A Man. Meets Dean, a guy who stole a suit and snuck into the party For Funsies. Things happen and Bad Guys mistakes Dean for Cas, kidnaps wrong guy.

(CUE TIME SKIP.)

Dean wakes up. There is a bullet hole in him. Apparently, he’s officially dead on paper. His brother has finished law school. Mysterious guy Cas nurses him back to health and then leaves. Bad Guys are (still) after him, though he has no idea why. Tries to find Cas, while Cas is shooting down people who try to catch him. (violence! action movie vibes!! cliches, probably!) (I’m actually really proud with the concurrent timelines but not sure if I have the motivation to do the full three arcs....) (There’s 14 chapters but I haven’t worked on it in months and months.)

2) Noblesse time travel.

An entire year and only three chapters to show for it: That Noblesse Time travel fic I said I was going to do. I have the ideas but not the motivation ugh.

Three main storylines:

1 - For Reasons Not That Important, Just An Excuse To Do The Premise - Rai goes back the past to find a Frankenstein who has not yet met him. A Frankenstein who is hunting nobles and mutants. (HOly shoot I just got the idea to add Tesamu in this omg maybe I should.......get on that.....)

2 - Tao, M-21 and Takeo wind up in Lukedonia. Like near a thousand years ago. When Franken and Rai are living together, but not bonded. Frankenstein is very suspicious of them. (Actually....this might be a little ���parent trap’ ish if I can pull it off hahahahaha.)

3 - Frankenstein goes to the future, where he meets Regis and Seira grown up. In the future, there is no Noblesse.

Then the characters start time jumping to each other’s timelines before going back to present day.

3) Rurouni Kenshin and Shakespeare fic 

Gosh this could have been good if I wasn’t such a fuck. I’m four chapters into this Rurouni Kenshin fic. Except, it’s Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, and I named it “Twelfth Knight.” !!! 

(Also probably blatant indulgent fic but fight me.) It’s a crime mystery. Kenshin and Kaoru (married) and co. go back to Kyoto because Saitou told them to Come See This Shit. Which is - a lot of murders that were definitely done by Kenshin’s Hiten Mitsurugi ryu, because Saitou knows his rival’s style too well. 

Meanwhile in The Past, a hardened samurai woman- an onnabugeisha - is searching for her disciple who ran away. A thing happens and she ends up in Kenshin and co’s present. 

Meanwhile Hiko Seijuro has also come across these clearly-Hiten-mitsurugi-murders. So. Because there are only two living practitioners of the Mitsurugi ryu, and Kenshin and Saitou know that it’s not Kenshin who lives in Tokyo, they think Hiko Seijuro did the murders. Hiko Seijuro, who hasn’t had to kill anyone in years, thinks it’s Kenshin who’s gone awol. They try to track each other down.

The samurai woman, of course, turns out to be the third Hiten Mitsurugi user. But she came from the past. Making her the twelfth heir of the style. Meaning she was the master of Hiko Seijuro 13 - she’s Hiko Seijuro 12. Who is looking for her missing kid disciple in Meji era 1880, wherein he would be 40+ years old. Thus, “Twelfth Knight!”

Based on Shakespeare’s best comedy imo 

4) “embers, smog, cinder, ella.” About Cinderella. And the demon who lives in the walls of the house she cleans.

Exactly how it sounds. Everyone treats Cinderella like a servant. The demon that lives in the old wood of her family’s country home sees everything. The role of the fairy god mother is given to Mr. Demon, who never shows up, but is always there, watching, lurking, helping Cinderella clean the house and get to the ball. Never really planned on posting lol purely aesthetic and indulgent XD, a character study more than a fic. I named it.

5) “A Magnolia Rides to War” Mulan character piece

Don’t know if I’m going to post this lol not really a fic. Totally for my own indulgence. Just a character study - full of oodles and oodles of pretty metaphors and purple prose. Magnolia flower is the eng translation of ‘mulan.’ 

6) An Unadmitted Defeat

Ah yes, one day I decided to, you know. Rewrite the entirely of the Lotus Lantern myth. (???) This was so spontaneous I don’t know hahaha. 

About the story of Chen Xiang, a young boy who lived in mostly mountain isolation with his loving parents. One day, family he didn’t know he had rocks up. It turns out his parents were trying to raise him away from celestial gods and magic, because his Uncle is the Heavenly Law Enforcer, Erlang Shen. Who quickly destroys their house, steal’s his mother Sanseng Mu’s powerful Lotus Lantern weapon, and traps her under a mountain after a big fight. 

Chen Xiang learns this happened because he is a demigod - his dad was human and mum was a goddess. Human-god intermarriage is outlawed and Chen Xiang is a Heretic. After stealing back the Lantern and escaping from Erlang Shen’s cold fifth layer palace, Chen Xiang has one singular objective: Save Mum. To save Mum, he has to defeat God Erlang Shen, who has never lost a fight in recorded history.

But just because he never lost a fight doesn’t mean he’s won every single one. Who is the person Erlang Shen could not win? -- Heavenly rebel, Sun Wukong, who is just what Chen Xiang needs. 

8) Two and Three

Character piece on the Yang twins before their heavenly fallout - goddess Sanseng Mu and Erlang Shen. 

7) Who is the Monster

Of course, my long running Noblesse fic!! A rift comes between Frankenstein and Raizel when an enemy from Frankenstein’s past comes back to enact a grand plan. 

(minor spoilers - First adopted child is terribly jealous and mad at adopted father’s new partner and new adopted children, thinks dad deserves better, so does most logical thing - destroy everything he loves.) 

8) A man with no mother 

An ongoing naruto fic.....that I have not updated for a long time :( 

An excuse for Kakashi to hang out with Kushina and get motherly vibes from her. Minato, Konoha’s best, goes missing. Kushina goes out of retirement to go Find Him. Outside the KOnoha boarders, she finds young ANBU Kakashi, who has broken rank to also go Find Him. Hijinks ensue. 

(One of the early fics looking back now I’m a little...eugh...but I will try -- try-- to finish it.)

[skellebonez]

I AM SORRY FOR THIS SKELLE BUT I MUST: 5 (kidnapping them was the only way I was going to get them here),6 (let's make a deal, shall we?) and 41 (can you teach me how to do that) with the demon bull fam and mk with a little hint of 64 (I may have eaten seven of them already). NOW GO HAM MY DUDE

Oh I had way too much fun with this one. I took S2E4 (spoilers mentioned for that!) and some tweets made by one of the show producers on the same day as fuel for a very silly idea I had. I don't write what can be considered "Crack treated seriously" (or at least semi-seriously, this is not a 100% serious fic) often but when I do I go hard. This is more focused on MK and others than SpicyNoodles so it's a bit more gen fic than a full on ship fic as well.

Kidnapping them was the only way I was going to get them here/Let's make a deal, shall we?/Can you teach me how to do that?/I may have eaten seven of them already.

"Red..." MK started off slowly, watching as his boyfriend's face flushed and twisted in embarrassment. "Can you tell me why your mother showed up at my apartment and used her wind vortex thing to teleport us here without an explanation? And then left us in your..." He looked around, noting that aside from the excessively large throne and two smaller thrones beside it this room looked like a... "Living room? On a couch?"

"I can-" Red Son started, raising a hand before pausing a frowning deeply. "Actually, no, I can't explain. This is just weird, even by my parent's standards. I have no idea what is going on, but since you're still here..." He shrugged with a hopeful smile, shaky through the uncertainty. "Maybe it's not bad? I mean, if Mother was truly upset or wanted to do something bad surely she would have not left us to our own devices. Maybe she’s... uh... happy I finally have a boyfriend?”

At the pointed raise of an eyebrow from MK that hopeful smile faltered a bit. Happy Red Son had a boyfriend for the first time in a couple centuries? Under different circumstances he wouldn't doubt that! Happy when that boyfriend was MK?

Oh he did doubt that.

He knew that they shouldn't have been sneaking around the way they had been. It had made sense at first, two people on opposite sides of a feud lasting centuries who discovered they actually enjoyed spending time together more than fighting each other. One who decided he very much would rather not follow through with any kind of domination and see his family hurt, who realized "actually my sworn nemesis isn't so bad", and another who decided "my life is already weird enough, why not give this befriending my enemy thing a shot".

And then one thing lead to another and before they knew it their secret friend meet up became a secret boyfriend meet up. They'd managed to keep everything under wraps for a while (except from Mei because, well... she was his best friend! He couldn't not tell someone and she would have found out fast if he wasn't obvious, and she had quickly become a mutual source of support for both of them), though MK knew Pigsy and the others knew something was up. They didn't question him, though, aside from the occasional good natured jab. "Wow MK, you seem happy today. Got any plans?" and that sort of thing. They seemed to trust him to make his own decisions, as long as he was happy and healthy and eventually told them. (Sun Wukong, however, may have caught in a little when he jokingly asked if MK had gotten a boyfriend and MK had choked on his drink. He never brought it up specifically after that but he was smart. Too smart.)

Red Son, on the other hand, was fantastic at keeping secrets when he tried. Or MK thought he was... the last few months gave no indication that either of his parents had discovered their little sneaky rendezvous. Then Princess Iron Fan broke into his apartment and, well, here they are. Clearly something had gone wrong somewhere along the line.

Before MK could follow through with any questions of whether or not there could be a fate worse than instant death that involved lulling him into a false sense of security, the two men froze at the sound of quickly approaching voices.

“Could this not have been done another way, my dear?”

“Kidnapping them was the only way I was going to get them here, you know that. Noodle Boy is not that gullible, contrary to what we first believed.”

Ah... shit... Red Son’s parents.

Mk quickly ran through all the possessions he had in his apartment and wondered if he had time to text Mei or Pigsy the world’s fastest will and testament and if that would be legally binding. He just hoped he had something for Pigsy to handle the Phantom Orderer they'd had for the last year.

They always ordered on the app and prepaid and managed to leave him a sizeable tip in his tuk-tuk after he dropped off the food at whatever random location they indicated.

"Good," PIF's voice rang clear, far faster than he could even attempt to pull out his phone, and MK turned to see that she was casually lounging on the shoulder of the Demon Bull King. She jumped down, her wind lightening her fall so much so that she barely made a sound when her feet touched ground. "You've made yourself comfortable."

MK couldn't bring himself to move, as much as he very dearly wanted to run away as quickly as possible. Yes, he was The Monkie Kid and had progressed far enough that he could probably escape without much problem. Yes, he and DBK had had an understanding after the White Bone Spirit and Lunar New Year Festival (though he still didn't know if PIF ever found out about that one). Yes, Princess Iron Fan had shown little interest in him before and had even worked beside him with no complaints (she didn't even care enough to attack during the Food Wars thing!). But that was all before she apparently found out he was dating her son behind her back while they were technically still enemies.

He was glad at that moment that she had grabbed them before they went to get lunch... his stomach was doing back flips that would make a gymnast jealous.

"Uh, yes Miss-Mrs-Muh-M- Princess Iron... Fan?" MK couldn't help but stutter awkwardly, holding onto the hem of his jacket and worrying it as he tried to keep his composure. He looked beside him, watching as Red sat straighter and kept an even expression on his face that he couldn't quite place. His hair seemed to spark softly.

Though she raised a brow at this, PIF didn't comment on that at all. Instead she made her way to the other couch across from them as opposed to what was clearly supposed to be her throne, leaning forward right her elbows on her knees and her fingers laced together in front of her. DBK stopped behind her, seemingly content to stay standing.

"Noodle Boy... you prefer to go by MK, is that correct?" She started, and he nodded slowly in confused response. "Hmn... so. You've been dating my son for quite some time. Many months... no, a bit over a year if I am not mistaken in how long his behavior has changed." 'Oh shit' went MK's brain. "You must be quite serious, if you're willing to go through so much just to see each other. Late night meetings. Secret hideaways. Sneaking onto Flower Fruit Mountain, even." 'Oh SHIT' it repeated in horror. "That's quite the dedication to show toward anyone... I hate to admit it, but I am quite impressed." 'OH SH-wait what?'

"Bw-huh?" Was what MK managed out, half a sound that was almost a word and half a squeak of confusion.

"The fact I myself remained oblivious until only a few weeks ago is quite something. Let's make a deal, shall we?" She continued, sitting back straight and looking like the proud Princess she was and not like a woman sitting on a couch that looked comically small in front of her enormous husband. "You and Red Son no longer have to hide your relationship from us and in exchange..." she paused, as if relishing the building tension between herself and the couple before her. "You will come over at least once a week so we can get to actually know you properly."

MK froze. Red Son froze even more.

Then his entire head lit ablaze as he jumped up and gestured at his mother with a gaping mouth. "Th-that's it!? I-I was... I was RIGHT!?"

PIF barely reacted to this, merely lounging sideways as she put her elbow on the arm of the couch and rested her cheek on her hand.

"Whatever you were right about, I suppose you were. But yes," she shrugged, honestly looking... kinda happy? "Has this been about a year ago I perhaps would not have understood what you saw in Nood-MK. But I can see how happy you have been lately, and there's something about him that is like... what did you say he was like, darling?" She turned to DBK, who shrugged himself with an unreadable expression.

"A ball of sunshine given human form."

... that was not what MK ever expected to hear from the Demon Bull King's mouth...

"Yes, that's it," she nodded as if this was completely normal and ignored how Red Son flopped back down onto the couch and stared at the ceiling. "I'd hate to admit it, but you've grown on us through out sparse interactions. Somehow. And we have been eagerly waiting for the day we could finally welcome someone into our son's life. So what do you say? Do we have a deal?"

She seemed... serious. MK may not know her that well, but it was clear to anyone when she wasn't being so.

"Uh... o-ok? Sure?" MK said softly, nodding in amazement as DBK and PIF actually smiled at this.

This was the strangest day of his life, beating our every single demon fight and even the day he got the Monkey King's staff. But he'd take this strangeness over the alternative 500 times over.

"Excellent," DBK nodded himself, there was a lot of that about. "That seems to have worked out n-"

Everyone paused at a loud grumble echoed the room, all turning to Red Son as he flared up in embarrassment this time.

"Don't look at me like that, we were supposed to eat half an hour ago and I am starving," Red Son grumbled as he sat up, not looking anyone in the eye. "I don't suppose we could. Eat now? Please?"

Despite the situation, MK couldn't help but smile at his pouting.

"I could bring us some food from Pigsy's?" MK offered in an attempt to contribute. Something. "I mean, I know Red likes it and you kinda seemed to like it the one time you tried it and... uh... yeah."

"Actually... I may have eaten seven of them already..." PIF admitted, looking away in embarrassment. "l've tried not to give into the temptation, but your father's noodles from the Food Wars were so... I just can't resist ordering some secretly after 5 or so weeks!"

"So you're the phantom orderer!" MK gasped out in shock, but after a moment he frowned and rubbed the back of his head. He had a bit of an idea. "Well... I could... make some for us instead?" He ammended his offered softly. "I may not make it exactly like Pigsy does, but I can get pretty close as long as you have the ingredients! And you wouldn't have to worry about me going there and coming back! We can eat like. Immediately!"

"I think that sounds acceptable," PIF said with a nod as she stood, but MK could see a bit of excitement sparkling in her usually cold eyes. "Come, Red Son. I need to discuss some upgrades the Bull Clones have been asking for with you. Your father can assist him in the kitchen until we are done."

Red looked over at MK and only stood to follow his mother once he nodded, giving his father a pointed look before exited the room. MK, in the meantime, looking up at DBK with a gulp and followed him as he lead the way toward their kitchen.

It was... well, bigger than he was used to. But pretty normal, regal size and decor aside. And it seemed, once he was given the nod of ok from his host (and wasn't that a bizarre thing, DBK and PIF being his hosts on a home visit to his boyfriend's parents... he was going to need to get used to that) he checked the fridge and counters and found he had just about everything he needed to make what he had in mind.

"Can you teach me how to do that?" DBK asked after a moment, startling MK into nearly dropping the sauce he needed for the broth. "Not the recipe itself, just..." He gestured to the counter. "Red Son has a bit of a proclivity toward cooking and he's been trying to get me involved, but we've never cooked anything like. That."

His words were awkward and stilted, but MK could tell he was trying. The same way he could tell PIF wasn't kidding with her offer. They just seemed to... want to get to know him as a potential... son-in-law... huh.

"Sure, but you're gonna want to shrink down a bit for this."

Lunch turned out amazing and, while awkward (much like most of the day)... it was nice not to have to hide their dating for once. And Red actually seemed pretty happy! Though he learned quickly that the Monkey King was still a bit of an (understandably) sore subject that was best avoided. For now.

Maybe not forever though.

(When PIF very not subtly dropped him and Red Son both off inside Pigsy's Noodles after their lunch, the only response he got was a "oh, so they finally found out huh? Looks like things went well" from Pigsy and Tang. Maybe he wasn't as sneaky as he thought he was...)

On a round of Tiger’s brain never shuts up

We got another fic idea (I have so many fics I’m working on dhdhdhdh)

You know what’s the best part of the Tang is a reincarnation of Tripitaka theory? The angst

You could apply this angst to Peachtea/Tripsun, Freenoodles and… Jasminetea!

That’s right! Rarepair time!

It’s a Jasmine tea + peachpig fic.

Basic premise:

Sandy/Sha Wujing and Sun Wukong lament over the fact that Tang and Pigsy don’t remember who they used to be and the two won’t tell them because Tang and Pigsy seem happy in their new lives. They get mildly jealous (Sun Wukong more than Sandy) of how those two always seem like they’re flirting with each other and they’re not, they’re really not.

(More under the cut)

Sandy has insecurities about his relationship with Tripitaka/Tang because while he was the calm and rational one out of the disciples (although he did become rage-filled after Zhu Bajie’s death), he doesn’t think he was really special or noteworthy in Tripitaka’s eyes compared to Bajie and Sun Wukong. He believes Tripitaka didn’t think that much of him and merely tolerated his presence since he had to except the monk really respected and loved him for his calm nature and wisdom. He also believes that transferred to Tripitaka’s new life as Tang since Tang makes snarky comments about rather or not Sandy is there with the group and it hurts that even now the person he’s in love with just tolerates him instead of actually caring about him but the scholar does care about him a lot. Another reason he believes this is Tang always seems more enthusiastic to explain stuff about Monkey King and Bajie more than Sha Wujing even though that isn’t true and Tang applies that same enthusiasm towards stories with Wujing in them, although he won’t admit it but deep down his favorites stories to tell are ones with Wujing in it. Before Sandy reveals himself, there’s most likely a point where Tang is about to tell a story about him and he knows what Tang thinks of him so he leaves because he doesn’t want to be hit the face about how much the scholar doesn’t care about him then misses how the scholar’s eyes sparkle as he recalls specific points of the demon’s story.

Wukong feels guilty that he wasn’t able to properly protect either of them especially Bajie and how he isn’t really surprised that the pig hates him in this life even though it hurts. He does think Bajie kinda resented him for certain things. He kinda stays more by Sandy or MK’s side when he’s with the group but watches Pigsy from afar. He also goes out of his way to protect Pigsy if he’s in the area when a demon attacks, he doesn’t actively tell him this but the pig can tell there’s something up and insists he can protect himself. Pigsy does make an effort to talk to the king and give him noodles but Wukong kinda flinches when he’s near because he doesn’t believe he has the right to see or be near the pig that much. Although the pig stills goes forward with getting to know the king and they do manage to have a few conversations where Sun Wukong doesn’t look like he wants to run away. Pigsy does things like making sure the king eats properly, making sure he’s okay and getting good quality social interaction with someone.

Sandy and Wukong frequently talk about if they should tell them but they end up agreeing not to. They stick together and bond over various things, returning to their normal brotherly bond.

Tang and Pigsy are really unaware of who they were before and how the other two are having an internal battle, instead they’re too busy gushing to each other about their respective crushes. They also get jealous of their past lives because it’s clear to them that when they can actually get Sandy and Wukong to open up about Tripitaka and Bajie that the two had a high opinion of their respective loves that makes it clear there were feelings.

Tang is pretty upset by it because how can he compete with the great monk? He does try to impress Sandy (and Wukong to a surprisingly lesser extent) by recalling everything he can about the journey hoping that Sandy will be impressed by his knowledge. He also gets Sandy to tell him bits about the Journey that were never included to learn more about him. Another thing he does is get Sandy to teach him how to make tea like he does so he can add it onto his list of “Why I’m a great candidate as a future potential partner.”

Pigsy is also upset by it but understands that the king has been around a long time and has seen so many amazing things and been around so many amazing people that a simple chef doesn’t make it onto his list for partners and that they’re acquaintances at best so he never had a chance especially since he likes Zhu Bajie and he’s aware the two had an amazing bond. He does try to still do stuff for the king and pretends he’s content with just being near him.

I’ll write this fic down eventually-

So I mentioned a Jasminetea and Peachpig Fic and here’s what an awesome anon added.

I’m gonna leave little things I’m adding into the fic, more specifically the Jasminetea parts of it.

There’s a scene that occurs after the part where Sandy leaves the shop when Tang is telling a story about Sha Wujing and doesn’t think Tang is going to say the story as enthusiastically as he would a story about the other two. The scene is the whole group is walking, Sun Wukong is probably there maybe, and Tang makes a snarky comment about the demon joining them and the demon gets mildly irritated and goes “If you don’t want me to be here Tang, you could just say it.” Then the others go quiet and shocked at the statement including Tang who feels mildly guilty.

One of the scenes is Tang is writing a paper about JTTW at Sandy’s place to get Sandy’s input and the demon helps him out with stuff, they talk bla bla bla. And Sandy decides to take a nap. Tang just jots down stuff as Sandy is on the couch napping and he flips to a page which has a picture of Tripitaka and gets jealous. In one of their convos before that, Sandy manages to imply that Tripitaka didn’t care about him or see him as highly as the other two when that’s just what he thinks. Tang mutters to the picture angrily and says “You might be the great monk but unlike you, I don’t just tolerate Sandy, I love him and I’m a better partner than you would be to him.” Tang, you’re literally his reincarnation but okay-

I have a thing planned out on how Tang figures out he’s Tripitaka although I am workshopping it a bit. But basically they all hang out on Flower Fruit Mountain and Tang sneaks off and finds the staff, he holds it and all those memories flood back to him yet I have no idea what his motive would be to find it and go behind the Monkey King’s back.
