#wukong found family

[the-monkey-ruler]

If wukong drank the pregnancy water do you think he’d want to get an abortion or keep it? He could transform so that the baby would be delivered safely. And he’d probably leave it to be looked after by the woman kingdom if he did.

Honesty I think Wukong in the book wouldn’t keep it as his first priority was to get to India first and he seemed pretty fine with helping Bajie and Sanzang with getting the abortion water. Monks leaving the family and all that.

But if he was to keep it then honestly I think he would take the baby with him on the road. Why keep it with some strangers when he is Sun Wukong? Great Sage Equal to Heaven?! He doesn’t know those women and I wouldn’t blame him if he didn’t trust them either. He would just have the baby strapped his back and still being killing a million demons on the road. If anything the parental instincts just kick in harder to make him fight more.

Is that the safest thing? No, absolutely not. But I can see him doing that. That or he just goes back to Flower Fruit Mountain and asks his monkey troop to keep his baby safe while he finished the journey. Can visit them legit with just a single leap and they are about 6 years into the journey, and would need about 8 more years to wrap up. Of course, this is just right before the Six Ears Macaque arc. Would be such drama if Six Ears got to the child while Wukong was away.

Could be an interesting premise def!

remember when swk tried to take li jing and nezha to court for gross negligence in jttw? good times

[icekingofhope]

look I’m just saying bai he and azure would have been the perfect found family shit

he is a cat and she clearly likes cats and what better is having a little girl who was possessed by a psychopath and almost killed by sun wukong due to desperation to stopping said psychopath but now left with traumatic scars now has a adoptive dad who is literally THE NEW JADE EMPEROR and also is traumatized half of it being by wukong

and you can’t tell me otherwise that Peng wouldn’t treat his niece like a princess and tusk wouldnt just read her stories

These three would have been the perfect protection squad

(WHY HAS NO ONE MAKE A AU OR SERIES OF THIS?! ITS LITERALLY PERFECT PLEASE I BEG-)

(If someone knows a fanfic like this or like makes a fanfic of this no ships or anything just cute found family shit I would be forever fucking grateful) and I would be so fucking happy

[zaacoy]

I was looking at an old ask, and it made me wonder something- a while back, you answered when Wukong consciously and subconsciously started viewing Yue as a daughter.

Shanzha, I think that one’s pretty obvious, but what about Macaque and RinRin? (Especially Macaque, when did he shift from niece mode to daughter mode?)

Macaque jumped into parenthood after he came to terms with the fact that he was Yue's uncle. There wasn't an "uncle mode" or a "dad mode," just a "this child is mine to protect and cherish mode." An "I love this very stressed and traumatized child like she is my own mode." By everything but name, Macaque was a father by the time Chapter 4 rolls around. He still thinks of himself as her "Uncle" since it was the first and arguably the most important connection between them.

RinRin, on the other hand, came into the relationship as a stranger burdened with the duty of being a babysitter/mentor to a child. Her eventual role as one of Yue's parental figures was a slow burn. At the same time, it crept up on her without her realizing it. Maybe it was when Yue successfully lied her way into getting something she wanted in the clan. Maybe it was when Yue helped RinRin take off her mask. Maybe it was when she woke up one morning curled around Yue with Shanzha on the other end.

Yue and the Celestial Primates have a nontraditional family structure and relationship, but what matters in the end is that they're all family and they all love each other.

Accidental Brother-Sorry, Babysitter-Acquisition (Fic WIP)

Premise: After finding a kid outside his shop covered in mud, with no name, no parents, and completely nonverbal, Pigsy begins searching for who the kid is.

Tang suggests praying to the protector deity of children, Nezha, for luck in the endeavor.

They are not special.

And Nezha wasn’t even totally completely utterly lying to himself!

The little child nicknamed “MK” due to a firm lack of knowledge on any actual name (short for another nickname in itself, monkey, which had come from the scholar deeming the child similar to an excitable monkey, which was not at all irritating) truly was just like the rest Nezha had helped investigate, to find real names and homes and birth parents.

…that sounded stalkerish, which it both was, and wasn’t.

As a deity often prayed to for aid regarding children, Nezha prided himself on being able to provide satisfactory help. Throughout the centuries, prayers regarding lost children with no trace of the parents, or any homes, or even a name were thankfully rare but not rare enough.

And so Nezha helped. He would pry into dreams, cast seals and tracing spells and-on some occasions-when he was well and truly stuck at his guarding position he’d summon the simian from his imposed self-isolation within his spring-summer mountain paradise. Because even though he despised Sun Wukong, anyone with eyes who bothered to properly look could see the choice of the other pilgrims to reincarnate weighed heavily on the Monkey King and fed into the imposed isolation.

So astral projecting to him, masking concern with insults and veiled threats to help along some investigation? It truly wasn’t hard, and Sun Wukong had mellowed out enough that Nezha no longer felt the urge to lacerate him within a minute.

While guarding his half of the Samadhi Map was a task Nezha had resigned himself to for eternity until some being sent him to Diyu-or Realms forbid sent off his paranoia by reassigning him-sneaking away was something he did when he could get away with it. He still had prayers from home and public temples, and failing mortal parents to send a scathing dream-astral-projection to, and families to tie to his temples’ programs to receive financial aid, and-and-

(Sometimes he wondered if they had wanted him stuck doing nothing but standing in front of a piece of enchanted paper for eternity so his legacy would die, so his temples would burn again, and worship and power would whittle to nothing. Because perhaps he found a sort of kinship with Sun Wukong, more than the warriors who spent their time whispering instead of training, of being a demon child the Heavens wished to control.)

(Azure Lion had a point, but where he lost his power Nezha merely manipulated his status so his help could continue instead.)

Children needed help. Simple as that.

And so MK the monkey kid was nothing special-because Nezha had assisted thousands of children before him, and would assist thousands more in his eternity.

The Naughty List

A clip from my ridiculous new Christmas-themed JttW fic, "The Naughty List" on AO3. Happy Holidays, everyone!

“What is all this stuff?” Monkey asked.

“Presents!” chirped Butter. “We make Christmas gifts for all the good little children of the world!”

Monkey turned to squint at him. “Oh? So how come I’ve never gotten one, then?”

The elf-yaoguai stared back. “…um,” he said. 

“Seems to me,” said Monkey, eyeing the colorful heaps, “that I am overdue.”

“You have to be on the Nice List to get a present!” blurted Butter. “You are on the—the other one!”

“Ah,” said Monkey. “Yeah. These lists I’ve been hearing about. Hey, you wanna hear a story about the last time someone put me on a list I didn’t like?” He slung a companionable arm around the yaoguai’s little shoulders. “So, one day a couple centuries back,” he began, “I got really drunk and woke up in hell…”

Now with FANART, by the superlative lukass-r!

Propaganda:

For Shadowpeach: "ok so, we all know from that one tumblr post that yaoi is two blokes doing fuckall and yuri is when there’s themes and shit? well these two (shadowpeach) have So Much Themes. they were super close friends for years and years (both immortal) before their epic breakup scene (wukong was trapped under a mountain and macaque refused to free him) (he wasn’t entirely in the wrong but that’s another story) (also wukong killed macaque there was that, that did happen) (its complicated)

from the Moment we see these two, all we know about them is that they’re the most divorced ever. as time goes on, we see the complexities in their relationship, and they introduce a lot of the overarching themes and motifs of the show (hero and warrior pairs, peaches being a symbol of their relationship, etc). also they’re both girls to me

tmnt theme song voice toxic codependent yuri!"

"theyre So So gay divorced and have an incredibly complicated and toxic relationship. also according to that one tumblr post yaoi is when theres two blokes doing fuckall and yuri is when theres themes and shit, and these two have So So So many themes and shit. theyve got motifs out the wazoo. peaches are a motif of their relationship and in the very end of the s4 finale wukong hands macaque a half-melted peach flavored (and shaped) popsicle. this is yuri to me"

"They used to be semi-immortal bff's, but then they fell apart and literally one of them died(bc of the other), then he revived, then got semi-consumed by revenge™ and tried to kill each other for a while, but they are cool now and they gave the sweetest little smiles when they finally talked- *fangirls* ok ok, look at it this way: it's a royalty au but it's canon."

"Well, they are toxic doomed yuri vibes, in my.most opinion. But also their designs are pretty gender I think.. mostly wukongs imo. And ik eyelashes aren't inherently feminine but theyre both some of the few(if not only) male characters in the show with visible eyelashes. Also if it counts, out of the relationships that I've seen compared to theirs, most are canonical sapphic relationships from other cartoons (catradora and bubbline notably)"

For Arthur and Linus: "THEY ARE SOO YURI!! OLD MAN YURI!!! LIKE!!! JUST LOOK AT THEM!!! THEYRE SO ADORABLE"

"A warm, loving caretaker of magical children who are orphans falls in love with the fat neurotic caseworker and changes his life for the better."

For Thoschei: "i. why great

They are each other's narrative foils. They are archenemies. They were childhood friends. They might not have been married, but they are divorced. They call themselves best enemies. They are the "i can fix them"/"i can make them worse" duo. They've proposed to each other (to rule/travel across the universe together), but each declined the offer from the other. They've kissed. They've killed each other. They've killed for each other (the first to do so was the Doctor who is the protagonist and the hero, but this fact was revealed in an audio drama, not in the TV show). The universe's too small for both of them. "The cosmos without the Doctor scarcely bears thinking about" is a real quote from one of the episodes from the 1980s. They are war criminals. The Master commits atrocities to attract the Doctor's attention and admits it. They are not able to get rid of each other for good, nor they really want to. One of the showrunners literally spent the BBC's money to make his E2L I Can't Decide fanvid for them and make it a part of an episode.

ii. why guy:

They'd been in male bodies for more than 40 years…

iii. why yuri

…until one of them regenerated into a woman. After some time, the other did so too. Sadly, they haven't interacted in their female bodies on screen, but the fandom makes do with fan content.

in conclusion: this is The guy yuri if i've ever seen one"
