Confrontation

Minuette took a deep breath as she climbed the worn stone steps of some old ruins. She had received a letter to come here so she had. When she reached the platform at the top she found three large crystal mirrors, one was shattered. She looked at the pattern on the floor and was momentarily transfixed. The sound of hooves on marble where soon heard, Minuette turned to see Twilight Sparkle, the unicorn looked worse for were. "You got my letter." Twilight said it wasn't a question it was a statement.

"I did." Minuette said as she backed up as Twilight approached her. The purple mare stopped when her front hooves touched the edge of the pattern. Minuette glanced down and she saw her own hooves on the other side of the pattern. "I want to show you something." Twilight said, without waiting for a response, Twilight's horn blazed to life and so did the pattern in the floor. Pink light filled the room and in the center mirror the reflection faded to show an odd scene to Minuette.

The ex weather mare of Ponyville, the local seamstress, Ginger's cousin, one of the local bakers, another pegasus that Minuette was sure she'd seen in town, and Twilight herself were gathering for a picnic, Twilight however seemed to be an alicorn instead of a unicorn. "What is this?" Minuette asked in confusion. "This is the life that you stole from me!" Twilight snapped in anger. Minuette tore her gaze from the mirror only to meet Twilight's angry glare. She had no idea what Twilight was talking about and the anger on the other unicorn's face scared her.

I can easily imagine a situation where Wukong is actually fem or trans actually. Like, China, especially ancient China, is a hugely patriarchal society, and Wukong is born into a matriarchal society. One that has a pretty significant language barrier considering Wukong describes speaking chinese or any none monkey language really as "speaking human." It's easy to imagine a situation where there wasn't really a good descriptor for what Wukong was to her tribe other than "Chief" or "King" or little baby Wukong not knowing the proper pronouns to a language he's not quite fluent in yet accidentally claiming herself to be King when Queen or Chieftess would be a more appropriate title. And history just... never realizes it was a translation mistake or that Wukong was actually a girl until MK becomes Wukong's successor. It could even be a situation where Wukong hid her gender when one considers the views of women at the time and the fact she spent several years in the presence of a very aggressive flirt and pervert, even if Baijie probably wouldn't have ever actually done anything just his presence done would make her uncomfortable

Just little ideas based in what you said about the story not really changing much if Wukong were female

Prev.

I can def see a situation in LMK where Wukong identifies as a girl (personal hc is genderfluid) and just... got tired of correcting people.

Younger Wukong didn't exactly have the correct word for her status amongst the troop in "Human" language so she uses "King" since it's the closest. "Queen" didn't sound right cus that meant the King's mate from what she saw.

We know that Subodhi takes on acolytes of all genders, so he had no problem with Wukong (then Shihou) wanting to learn daoist & buddhist magic. He did think Wukong was a guy at first simply cus he didn't think to ask. He did have some old-fashioned "Women = Yin. Yin is bad" views though, and that led to a few arguments between him and his most outspoken student.

No one in Heaven or the Seas bothered checking cus "Thats a Monkey". Except for whoever was in charge of electing Wukong for the stable-monkey job - that was a directed hit at her (in ancient china female monkeys were kept around horses for luck/scaring off wolves). When Sun Wukong realised that she had been given a job even below a stable-boy simply for her body and/or gender identity, she flipped out.

Being elected a Peach Orchard Maiden was a lot better, which made her even more upset that she wasn't allowed to attend the Queen's Banquet - the Orchard Maidens got to go! Why couldn't she!? The real reason turned out to be that the other Maidens were actually the Jade Emperor and Xiwangmu's daughters - a fact that's often forgotten amongst even the nobles of the Celestial Realm. The Maidens hadn't been able to explain that it was an immediate-family-only party when Wukong decided to crash it.

Bonus for Stone Matriarch au: Xiwangmu immediately recognises a startling familiar destruction in this little demon. Like she's seeing a mirror of her younger self; a wild queen destroying the Heavens to prove her worth. The Queen Mother even pauses at the sight of the chaos on Flower Fruit Mountain, thinking she's seeing one of her own daughters throwing a tantrum.

Ofc the relationship between Fem!Wukong and the Brotherhood gets altered a bit. I feel that they knew Wukong's gender and supported her 100%. DBK goes full "You looking at my little sister, punk!?"-mode on anyone that even looks at Wukong. PIF helped a lot with understanding "human girly-stuff" when Wukong joined the Celestials.

Macaque knew from day 1, and it doesn't change his level of devotion to his King - though he makes a point of referring to Wukong as the "Beautiful Monkey King". Guaranteed to leave Wukong blushing. Macaque's own gender identity is a question mark - he takes what gender he can steal from others.

It also only served to reinforce Azure's projected martyrdom onto Wukong - who would be the best figurehead for the rebellion than a woman who suffers as much pain as the Bodhisattva Guanyin?

Tripitaka likely faints once or twice at the revelation that his bodyguard is a bloodthirsty woman - but quickly gets over it cus thats the least of his worries. Tthough he does panic at the thought of Wukong being like certain other female demons towards monks -Wukong quickly puts his worries to rest; Tripitaka isn't her type.

Sha Wujing and Ao Lie didn't mind but they made sure to have Wukong's input for when she preferred to be addressed as male - usually amongst humans or celestials.

Zhu Bajie on the other hand...

It took Bajie a lot of rejection to get the point that the Monkey King was not a free lady. After a few years their relationship became a lot more "annoying siblings"-vibes, but the initial creep factor always made Wukong uncomfortable.

MK (he/they transmasc) discovers the Monkey King's true gender and *immediately* works to correct his language.

MK: "Monkey- wait, do you prefer being called King or Queen? I don't want to misgender you if possible." Wukong, surprised: "Uh, King is fine bud. It's sort of my brand now anyway." MK: "Okay! Never be afraid to correct me if I mess up." (*points to trans pride pin on his jacket*) :D Wukong, honestly touched: "Aww."

Later when the rest of the Noodle Gang meets Wukong, there's a little surprise - mostly from Tang who's rambling how all the translation inconsistencies finally make sense! Mei shrieks with glee - the Monkey King is "The Ultimate Girl Boss!". Sandy politely asks for Wukong's preferred pronouns if she's comfortable sharing them. Pigsy is a lot more understanding of why Wukong felt the need to hide her gender for so long.

Pigsy: "Let me guess, you pulled a Mulan cus of a certain... pervert in your travel party." Wukong: "Eh not entirely... Bajie figured it out after a few months, but by then he already saw me as One of the Guys. Felt weird to bathe or sleep near him though - dude stared." Pigsy: "Gross." Wukong: "Mega-gross."

Wukong's dynamic with Spider Queen becomes a bit funnier, since she likely doesn't know Wukong's gender. Second she learns that her opponent is "a fellow Queen" she gains a lot more respect for her. Female spiders are overwhelmingly the strongest after all.

If it becomes wide knowledge during LMK, then Wukong gets an intense public reaction, not just from fans (she tells Fire Star to deal with the media dumpster fire) but from demons that knew her back in the day that never knew and are surprised, or did know and are extremely proud of her for coming out.

DBK loudly declares "MY BABY SISTER HAS RETURNED!". The king he's been forced to fight felt like a complete stranger until Wukong started owning her gender identity again. He is extremely supportive to an embarassing extent. Red Son feels elated, especially since they're coming to terms with their own gender indentity.

And ofc a lot of this is me projecting as a trans masc person - I tend to automatically see Sun Wukong's as afab either way. This idea can have Wukong either as afab genderfluid or trans fem, whatever tickles the brain.

Swapped Six of Crows but Inej :DD

As much as Inej hated the Menageri, she kept the bells around her ankles from the horrible Suli Lynx costume she had to wear, even if they were a reminder of Tante Heleen and that godforsaken building.

She didn't want to be quiet anymore. Not ever. Being quiet had gotten her taken from her parents, her family, and her life. She'd be quiet if it was life or death, but even then, it felt strange, familiar, but wrong.

The sound of the small bells ringing became associated with Inej, a slight ring of the bells before going quiet, only to be rung agin, louder once she lands on the ground below whichever place she jumped down from.

Once it goes quiet, that's when people panic. No one is faster than gravity, especially not when they are frozen in shock from the notorious bells. It was a warning. If you heard it, Inej was too close for you to do much.

It was also a way for Kaz to know it was her, the slight bell ring was a comforting sound, too loud to miss and be a mistake or imagined sound, a reminder he was still alive, but quiet enough it wouldn't startle him.

Of course, Jesper teased Kaz about this. He had gotten his own bell to ring when he wanted to get Kaz's attention while he was ignoring Jesper. Kaz always perked up slightly, hearing the ring and looking over to the closest window or doorway, and when Inej was nowhere to be seen, he'd reluctantly listen to what Jesper had to say, otherwise he would keep ringing the bell until he did.

Inej attached the bells around her custom Fabrikator-made leather slippers with coarse rubber soles, perfectly fitted to her feet and capable of gripping any surface that Jesper had made for her soon after she joined the Dregs.

playing around with a canon universe version of my gerojim gijinka from the swap au... his vision isn't very good :(

(feat reverse jeramie!)

[carouselunique]

Minuette! Someone requested her for the sketch sale so I decided to do a few sketches of her because she is my beloved!

[azureandcrimson]

Okay. I need help. In swap au's, would the person they swap with get the power or would they keep their former power like... Example: If I swapped Macaque and Redson would Macaque get fire powers and Redson shadow or do the powers stay the same?? Or does it just depend on the Au and how you want it??

[upside-down-low]

shhhhh they are sleeping

Mlp age swap au

What is the age swap au?

This au follows a what if idea if the main six were blank flank fillies while a different group of ponies take on the original roles of the main six

Are any other ponies swapped in this au

That is still to be determined, Celestia and Luna and Cadance are still the same

When does this au take place?

It takes place pre season 8 so the school of friendship doesn't exist yet (this might change)

Is Starlight in the au?

Starlight Glimmer and Sunset Shimmer's involvement in this au is yet to be determined

Is Twilight still an alicorn?

No, Twilight Sparkle is a unicorn in this au since she doesn't have her cutiemark meaning she never auditioned for the school of gifted unicorns, Twilight's family moved to Ponyville because Twilight struggles with magic

Were Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy born in Ponyville?

No they moved to Ponyville due to the constant bullying they both endured in Cloudsdale

Does Pinkie Pie live in Ponyville?

Pinkie's family owns a small gem mine/rock farm at the quarry just outside Ponyville, it's a good five minute trot into the town proper meaning the pie siblings didn't grow up in complete isolation, Pinkie is the youngest pie sibling in this au

Did Starlight meddling in time cause this alternate timeline to exist?

Surprisingly enough no, this universe/timeline came about completely on its own

Will the little six get their cutiemarks in this au?

To be determined

On to the swap!

First up we have

⚡Scootaloo🔧

In this au Scootaloo takes Rainbow Dash's role. Scootaloo is a loyal and selfless pony who always sticks up for her friends. She suffers from some anxiety when it comes to big performances. Due to her earth pony genes Scootaloo's wings never developed properly causing her to need wing braces in order to create the proper lift and drag needed to fly. She wants to become a Wonderbolt to prove that disabled pegasi can do anything the average pegasus can do. She is very stubborn. Her family moved around a lot due to work but her birth certificate says she's from Cloudsdale since her dad had a cloud walking spell put on him while the family lived in Cloudsdale, they moved away after she got her cutiemark. Scootaloo lost contact with Cyan Skies shortly after. She currently lives with her aunts since her parents lost custody of her when she was ten.

Next up is

☁️Cyan Skies💙

Cyan Skies is a fillyhood friend of Scootaloo and takes Fluttershy's roll in this au, Cyan is a bit shy and socially anxious but is willing to try something new. She's a part of Ponyville's weather squad, she would like to become captain one day and maybe become well known for cloud shaping. She moved to Ponyville fron Cloudsdale after graduating flight school. (Cyan skies might seem like an oc but she's actually a named background filly that appears in the background of Call of the Cutie at Diamond Tiara's party bringing a present with her)

Next is

🍎Applebloom🌸

Applebloom takes Applejack's role in this au. She does her best to be as honest as possible. She values hard work and is very dedicated to her family and to her farm. She's the second of the Apple siblings and hopes to be able to keep helping with the farm as she keeps getting older. She's also a very stubborn pony when it comes to her work. Luckily her family and friends remind her to take breaks especially after she overworked herself a few times. She still lives on the farm for simplicity sake.

Next up is

🍬Peppermint Twist🍰

Peppermint Twist, or just Twist for short, takes Pinkie Pie's role in this au. She's a fillyhood friend of Applebloom's, the two were constantly teased while growing up for being blank flanks. Twist is a bit more introverted in nature but is always willing to try and help ponies cheer up. She was a lot more withdrawn when she and Applebloom drifted apart briefly during fillyhood. They're better now but there's still some tension. Twist hopes to one day open her very own bakery someday and is currently working at Sugarcube Corner to gain experience. She currently has her own house and walks to and from work everyday.

Next we have

♥Sweetie Belle🔔

A unicorn originally from Cantorlot Sweetie Belle is a generous pony that tends to spiral on occasion, thankfully she has her friends by her side to help her through. Sweetie Belle takes Rarity's role in this au. Sweetie's family moved to Ponyville when she was still a filly, after she got her cutiemark. Sweetie wasn't exactly thrilled about the move but adjusted to Ponyville very quickly. She owns a small craft store called Carousel Crafts. She has a small loft above the store where she stays, she often babysits her younger sister even if the two tend to but heads every now and again. Her Cantorlot accent comes out when she's angry or needs to sound fancy.

Finally we have

⭐Dinky Hooves🪄

Dinky Hooves is Celestia's prized pupil. Dinky takes Twilight Sparkle's role in this au. Dinky was born and spent her formative years in an apartment in Cantorlot with her mom Ditzy Doo and her biological dad who is an unnamed Unicorn. The break up was messy, Ditzy moved to Ponyville with Dinky while her ex husband moved to Manehattan. Dinky is a kind and caring pony who is surprisingly social but struggles to make friends. Dinky has a disability when it comes to her magic, instead of it flowing from the tip to the base of her horn it goes the opposite. This unfortunately causes a lot of problems for her. She auditioned for Celestia's school for gifted unicorns because of her mom and step dad's encouragement. Dinky had a magic burst that caught Celestia's attention prompting the princess to take the young unicorn on as her pupil.

Bonus

Alicorn Dinky Hooves

After passing Celestia's big test Dinky became an Alicorn and was crowned a princess. It took Dinky a while to adjust to her new status and to having wings. She's happy that she gets to stay in Ponyville with her friends and mom.
