#Wukong: And shes HAPPY!

Jinling Shengmu is so cool I’d love to see her show up more as Princess Iron Fan’s mom. And I guess Huaguang since he married Princess Iron Fan. I was so surprised to learn there’s a small temple out there where she’s worshipped alongside him since the end of the Ming dynasty.
Tumblr media
I just wrapped up Journey to the South but I'll be honest it was just... way too boring. It is supposed to be after the Journey to the West but legit there was never really a connection to the story besides Wukong being in the first chapter and being the one to take down Huaguang in the last chapter. Otherwise, it is kind of a rinse-and-repeat plot with no real development because Huaguang keeps making more mistakes. I even thought that Princess Iron Fan in this verse was just different as well because she didn't have the Banana Leaf Fan she had like literally Iron Fan and acted like she never had a husband or son, just always living with her brother and mother.
If we are ever to get Nanyouji media they best just make it about Wukong and his kids fighting Huaguang because literally, the only interesting story line I enjoyed was him going to the demon city to save his demon mother and trying to cure her of her desire to eat humans. But that is only at the end!
But I wasn't aware of the temple which is really cool! If you have a temple or local for the temple please let me know!

Epilogue ( @journey-to-the-au Fic)
Tumblr media
This is what happens at the end of Tea trouble. It’s just short but it’s because I wanted to write fluff and cuddles and warmth.
The sun sank slowly into the sea, painting that great swath of liquid to fire. Willow felt the soft weariness sneak into her face as finally, finally her family mounted their heavenly steeds and kept back into the sky. The stars were beginning to appear in the darkening night. Gold, wood, water and fire. They marked the sky with their light as she waved her sisters goodbye.
From the mouth of babes came a second peace, a second chance. Lychee had offered the peach and Winter had taken a bite from it. An exchange and a wave of apologies. Willow had spent that time swapping tales and trading secrets of her home. Of her mountain. With her sisters. They listened attentively. They touched her hand- sought comfort and reassurance they had not lost her forever in their callous remarks. Willow reassured, reaffirmed and rebounded with each of her sisters.
She was exhausted. Willow sighed, itching her scalp. Her hairpins still bothered her, and her clothes felt too heavy. She wanted nothing more then to sleep for a fortnight. Anger was an emotion Willow rarely dove into, rarely utilized and unleashed. Calm rage? Yes. Anger that blinds like this one did ? No. It left her feeling achy and tired and o so sensitive to her skin.
Willow sighed. She was so thankful to the fruit troop, to Pear and Apple, Pomelo and Mulberry. And Lychee. The bravest little mischief maker ever. The first to offer a olive branch to her sisters and to forgive them. No one will talk that way to them ever again.
For now as the sun cast itself into the sea Willow felt her final strength ebb and fade with its light. She took a step back to rebalance herself —
Great large furred arms swung her up and over broad shoulders. She squealed in surprise as Wukong raised her up, growing in size himself.
“WILLOW!” He practically roared as the rest of the mountain followed suit. Thousands of the troop came racing forward, pressing close and reaching up to her from the spot on Wukongs shoulders. The rest of them were crowing and hollering and screaming. Calling her name.
“Gather the softest pillows and blankets ! The night will hold for us all- set the guards to chasing any beasts out of the groves. Light the fire pits! And everyone GATHER YOUR FAVORITE FRUIT!” Willow heard the roar of the crowd as they thundered off. Hammocks were pulled between trees, bundles of blankets and pillows and downy things were dragged and set down in the field. Monkeys lit the fire pits that lined the clearing, the great orange light casting dancing shadows as the sun continued its decent. Willow saw the troop laugh and chortle as they brought fruits out. A veritable second feast of food. Kiwis, grapes, oranges, watermelons, melons and nectarines.
Wukong kept Willow on his shoulders. Willow was too tired to ask why or deny the outward pouring of love from her earthen family. This was just the way they heaped support and love onto her. A veritable jungle of nests and hammocks, of blanketed caves and soft spots to lay soon covered the grass all around.
To tangle and tug and touch was the Monkey way of showing love. Willow sighed, laying against her husbands very soft and large head.
“What did I do ? It was all my fault.”
“Hush you I won’t hear you taking the blame for others ever again.” Wukong admonished. Several of the troop had gathered nearby, dragging a forest of bedding and plush to make nests and enjoy the night. Wukong set himself down in the thick of the troop, taking Willow up off his shoulders and into his lap. His tail coiled around her a hand against her middle. The giant monkey practically swamped her as he chirped and cooed, crooned and kissed her temples and nose.
“Wukong don’t swallow her!” Ba admonished. Willow peered from between the fur of Wukongs neck. She felt like a chick beneath a mother hen, completely covered and warm. She saw Ba setting up a little nest beside them. Beng was busy swinging Pomelo and Mulberry about-throwing them into pillows that bounced them slightly in the air.
“Save some for the rest of us please.” Ba snorted. Lychee was seated on Chestnuts shoulders talking his mothers ear off about his day and how he and his friends had gotten Little Weaver Girl to braid them flower crowns. He still wore his on his brow, eyes bright. They two set their bedding and nesting material down beside them.
���Are we all sleeping out beneath the stars ?” Willow asked. Wukong didn’t say yes with words. He was too overcome with an emotion, a puff of pride that expanded his chest. Here was his Willow Tree. The strong women who had been betrothed to him but had chosen him- heart and soul. Willow who had turned Huaguoshan into a protected area. Willow who had stalwartly sat beside him when he had been burning and boiling and close to madness inside that bronze prison. Willow who had bravely offered herself to the Imposter to save the rest of his family. And it had been Willow again who had chosen his people and family, his friends and loved ones, and had brought to heel celestial who thought they could talk down to him and what was his.
Whatever I did - whatever luck shot through my sky and made my stone sentient - I am glad it made me in time to be with her.
“Yes princess.” He softly whispered to her. “You defended all of us yet again. You brilliant warrior.” For she was a warrior. Not of blades or fists or claws of teeth. Words were her weapon and she used them brilliantly. More accurate then an arrows fall, she pierced Huaguoshan enemies with no bloodshed.
If I had met her when I was seeking my enlightenment … before I sought Heavens recognition… he wondered. Would his life have gone on a entirely new path? Wukong mussed her hair with his teeth, nibbling until she tapped his jaw in play.
His friends settled about them and the rest of the troop began to visit Willow, offering food and comfort. The little bundle of baby fruits ran across the clearing. They had been hero’s and they didn’t even know it.
Wukong lay curled over and around Willow like some large languid cat, tail tucked possessively about her. He became larger still, letting the little fruits climb onto his back in their play. Rin Rin came forward and Wukong allowed her to take Willows hair down, to groom and to ease her scalp.
Rin Rin heard the story as Wukong, Ba, Liu and Beng recounted it. They were now all here against Wukongs side, grooming and offering fruits or each other, to Willow. The love was a warm glow in the night , a glow that came from within and rivaled that of the dying sunlight. Ba kept off his pranks and offered Willow sour green grapes- and his deepest vows of loyalty. Wukong snorted happily, a large hand gently scratching along Willows back. Beng checked their little word warrior over and then gave her a single hardy shake. Ma was blubbering with Rin Rin who simply held on and brushed Willows hair out. Liu bowed and offered his own vows of loyalty- setting Ba to trying to outdo him.
Wukong waited till the stars were bright in the sky, the moon rising now to cast her silver light to whisper and speak praise and words of love. He wanted to drown her in the emotion that beat in his chest. It was a glow as steady as the sun and as wild as the world. It was not the same love Rin Rin or Liu or Ba or Chestnut Or Beng Or Ma experienced.
Forever and always. I will See her days filled with joy and peace. I will topple the very pillars that hold this world up to give her that. Wukong watched her burrow into his side, fingers curled in his fur. He looked to the sky, to the Heavens. To beyond that- to the cosmic sphere of reality. The universe beyond the Heavens.
“Thank you for making her. She’s perfect.” Words failed. Perfect was so silly of a word. Willow was more then perfect. She was victorious, stalwart, kind, compassionate, a stone to rest his back against and the shade that hid him from the burning sun.
“I will keep you. Forever. Until the very definition of eternity crumbles. Thank you Willow, for filling my days with your love.”
Wukong kissed her temple and pulled her into his warmth, pulling several of his with her. Tails and hands, feet and limbs all intercrossed and overlapped. They were tangled, intertwined like the roots of a tree. Grounding the willow tree they all loved to their earth, to their mountain.

thought I’d try my hand at writing for my Au so yeah guess it’s here doubt you will but hope you enjoy my latest piece of garbage
a cold game
Tumblr media
She has always been cold, the monkey king thought, it was sort of her thing conjuring ice and all but this was a sort of coldness he would never get used to. The stale dead air in his lungs, the ever present whispering around him. And most of all HER, she had changed so much, and to such a extent that if it wasn’t for the familiar glow in her eyes he wouldn’t be able to tell it was her at all.
blue moves bishop forward
She looks up at him,”you seem troubled” she asks with what he could easily mistake for a sign that everything was normal. that she was intact he was intact,”I’m perfectly fine just thinking about how you got the decorations up in here ya know” he lies
Gold takes rook of blue
he knows she knows but she doesn’t comment on it and neither does he.” So” he opens prompting her attention” why are you not yourself?” He asks bringing attention to the proverbial elephant in the room.” What do you mean?” The spirit replies.” You know exactly what I mean, why are you not yourself? Why are you in the body of a child?” He asks firmer this time,” this host had proven quite useful so I fail to see the harm in keeping them around a little while longer”
blue takes pawn of gold
“your dodging” he states she knew she always knew what he mean’s the demon sighs,” what would I dodge? There is nothing to avoid” the lady replies. His eyes narrow” besides the smell of rot and ash coming from you” He says, she stiffens” show me, please” he asks and much to his relief she obliges casting off her host for the moment. Black locks turns to white, blue gaze becomes red and whispers grow louder. And he sees her.
Tumblr media
She’s different, her form looks mutilated compared to his last memory of it. Her cheeks were now lined with ashen fangs. Her sclerae had become a deep black, her waist was lined in broken chains. She had cracks emanating flickers of blue coming from her eyes, Her face vaguely resembled a jackal now. He had thought her imprisonment would be kinder then his, it appeared he had been gravely mistaken. The silence is deafening as the smell of rot and death fills the room.
blue takes bishop of gold
she’s not looking at him anymore driving her blood colored eyes to the board, the little game they play still.” I still don’t see why you didn’t show me before it’s not bad really” he says in hopes of grabbing her gaze.
blue moves two spaces
she’s silent, stiller then the dead.” What will you do?” He asks. Now that grabs her attention, her eyes snap towards him” I will continue on as my destiny foretells” she says robotically the whispers grow louder yet still he can’t understand them, unlike before so long ago.” That’s not what I meant, what will YOU do?” He asks hoping he will receive answer he worries for her, he could handle imprisonment it was something he was familiar with but her? He had no idea what has happened to her.
CHECKMATE Blue wins
she flickers, warping back into the visage of her host, then she turns to the monkey she called friend” I very much enjoyed this opportunity to catch up with you peachling, we should do this again in the future goodbye sun” she says before making her leave from their shared space. He grimaces but quickly puts forth a smile” it’s been nice to see ya too blue” he says with a crafted smile
much to his suprise she smiles back with warmth he thought she had long forgotten,” I don’t know” she says.”wha-“ he begins to ask what she means before she leaves and their space shatters. And he’s left alone once again,” don’t worry Blue I’ll find a way to fix you, but I need to check up on the Cub first” he says to no one in particular before calling his cloud. He takes a breath, and makes his way to his destination.
Tumblr media
Yep that’s it here’s my garbage The Risen Shadow and Fallen Sun AU everyone! Misery for everyone involved

So I've been cooking up some alternate outfit ideas for my Lmk sona and this is what they'd look like if they were with the Demon Bull Family! The idea is basically they'd be something of a court musician but it's mainly just a title.
Edit: Added the version without her armor <3
I don't have a concrete story but the initial idea was that cas was friends with swk in the brotherhood days and stuck with dbk after everyone else got sealed away and the whole consumption incident went down since she had nowhere else to go (and conveniently was the only lady around that he could ask for relationship advice when courting Iron Fan). They didn't expect Cas to live this long, only really expecting to have her around through her natural lifespan but they noticed she wasn't aging so now she gets to be their babysitter for date nights! Through the years she's been something of an aunt/sister figure and has become fiercely loyal to the family despite having no desire to take over the world. Redson built her electric bass and the armor she wears over her gems, the Bass has 2 extra buttons on it- the fire button spews fire out of the pipes and the Bull button unsheathes her sword from the neck of the instrument since she can't exactly walk around with a sword on her hip so easy these days. She travels with a heavy metal band across the continent- i like to imagine her intro episode has the crew excited about a big band coming to the city and while they wait they run into redson and annoy him cause he's bragging about getting exclusive vip passes to the show. The crew would expect someone mean from the music and the from the rest of the family but Cas is super welcoming and nice when the crew sneak backstage to bother redson some more XD
#my art#sketches#lmk oc#it me!#Cas#i'm not mentioning connie because they're the same no matter the au#though you can bet they're gonna flip when they hear redson and dbk opened a barbecue restaurant without telling them#they want a taste! Cas is probably the only mortal who can eat the Inferno level simply because Connie will consume it#and also they've been eating this boys cooking for years- they've gained an ungodly spice tolerance#i also like this concept because i think it'd be funny to have wukong be weird about Mk knowing Cas now#and innocently being like 'we should invite them over to hang out- since we're cool with redson why not the token nice one of the family?'#and Wukong is just getting flashbacks to the last time they spoke- right after sealing away dbk and is like 'haha that's nice bud-#'but oh darn they're still touring and won't stick around- she'll probably be leaving the city super soon! what a bummer!'#"all the more reason to get together Right Now!!!' :D '... Thats... GREAT Bud- i can see no reasonable point to argue!' ;w;#Meanwhile Cas is Vibing- big chillin- is only gonna realize her mistake when she locks eyes with swk and they both immediately share a Look#and wordlessly agree to simply Not Bring It Up#i have 1 other design i'm working on- i have the sketch and concept done already#i just need to color and finish it#that one i had the entire outfit And Lore a lot more thought out than this one but i had this idea first and REALLY wanted to draw the bass#im so proud of it you have no idea- the idea of the sword hidden in the bass and the flame jets make me so happy#it feels like something Redson would make- Cas uses it for all their performances they love it so much#And they wear the armor he made Religiously- even if their gems are covered by clothes or theyre chilling at home#unless they just woke up and haven't gotten dressed then they're most likely wearing them- the necklace especially#I still gotta make a regular Ref sheet but these are more fun- i have so much random info about Lmk cas i wanna ramble about >:3

Lilac has snuck in and now bestows upon him a few kisses to his face, smiling as she cuddles him close next.
Tumblr media
“Heehee, hello to you too my love~”
Soft candor chitters leaving the golden simian’s lips as he felt the kisses peppered across his cheeks by the other. Wrapping his arms securely around Lilac’s waist before drawing her closer to him and cuddling her back, his chest beginning to rumble to life with a loud purr. His tail seeking out it’s snowy white companion to wrap securely around in turn. It wasn’t long before he peppered her cheeks with his own gentle and caring kisses, pressing one to each little star-like freckle in kind.

How do you think any of the Wukong’s would react to their Reader holding one of the baby monkeys and being utterly in love?
“…it’s so smaaaall…”
“…are you crying?”
“It’s so cute!” *cuddles tiny baby to chest*
Wukong learns through trial and error that he has to basically security pat his Reader down (or do a sniff check, lol) after the first time she successfully smuggled a happy, sleeping tiny baby monkey off the island in her sports bra (it’s warm in there).

what if the restraints never got taken off even after the journey's over tho... I bet Reader would be very happy by that — knowing she has, at the very least, something to use against Wukong that actually works
Reader, watching as Sun Wukong struggled on the ground (he tried taking her away the moment the journey ended): ah, how the tables have turned :)

this is more like mid- journey, but eh
reader needs to get better at taking the sass she dishes out ;)

Okay! So um, can I request a headcanon for SWK, Macaque and Nezha with a s/o who often loves to suprise them by giving Eskimo kisses or just straight up kiss their noses all of the time. Sometimes they even forget they are in public places while doing so too!
Reader is a she/her
/romantic
I hope this isn't too much! This is kind of my first time requesting, =.=
Don't worry! This is a pretty simple request, you did good!
I'm pretty sure the term 'eskimo kisses' are sort of offensive? Not dissing you, ofc, I doubt you had any bad intentions! So I'll just refer to calling it 'nose kisses' for this request :]]
Nose Kisses! (Wukong, Macaque and Nezha)
Sun Wukong
Tumblr media
Bro loves your kisses so much
He is obsessed, you dont understand-
He thinks it's because of his monkey genes, but whenever you give him a kiss on the nose he just gets instant heart eyes
Automatically goes "aww" whenever you kiss him on the nose
You sometimes get him caught off guard with the kisses, but he recovers fast
Always pulls you in for a quick cuddle whenever you kiss his nose, or at least a quick hug
Most times, Wukong just (gently) grabs your face and then pulls you in so he can kiss you on the nose too
Other times he just full on gives you a smooch on the lips
VERY insistent on kissing you back, it's like his own personal code or something
DO NOT try to run away after giving him a kiss on the nose, HE WILL chase after you!
Will pepper your face in kisses if you ever tried
Overall, he is so happy whenever you kiss him on the nose. Or kiss him anywhere, really
Mans is touch starved, what did we expect-
Macaque
Tumblr media
Won't admit it, but he secretly just waits for you to kiss him on the nose
Literally will set up an entire scene where there's an obvious opportunity for you to do it
He lays on the couch, pretending to be asleep? He's waiting for you to come up and give him a kiss
He somehow gets into a fight that got his face (particularly his nose) hurt? Says that you have to kiss him better for the pain to go away
Putting his face super close to yours whenever you're cuddling? Damn, his nose is looking pretty kissable don't you think-
He thinks he's being slick when he's doing this
He is not slick at all, you figured it out a long time ago
Why can't you just ask for kisses like a normal person bro, damn
Macaque is like, on the other side of the spectrum as Wukong
He obviously enjoys your kisses, but also... Doesn't want to show how much he loves it??
At least, not visibly. His wagging tail always gives him away though
He shows how much he appreciates your kiss by giving you a surprise nose kiss! He's a bastard like that
This guy is also really touch starved, he just has a harder time trying to show how much he loves it
Nezha
Tumblr media
Is somehow always caught off guard whenever you kiss him on the nose
You'd think he'd get used to it over time, but nah. He's always somehow a bit surprised whenever you give him a nose kiss
Incredibly flustered when you first give him nose kisses. Especially when in front of other people
Not that he doesn't mind! He just isn't used to such affection
After you kiss his nose, he'd politely ask if he can kiss you back
He's a gentleman like that
Please don't bring up the blush on his face, he will refuse to acknowledge it
Nezha feels like he has to pay you back somehow with all the kisses you give him
Like, it's an entire urge he gets whenever you kiss him that he has to do something for you
(feel free to abuse this fact to get free stuff from him lmao)
Instead of kissing you on the nose, he'd just kiss you on the forehead or cheek
Sometimes, he'd kiss your hand like some sort of prince
Overall, not as touch starved as the other two, but definitely treasures your kisses.... Even if he does get jumpscared by them

The Traffic Light Trio Except they Simp for You
AKA MK, Mei, and Redson crush headcanons
Characters: MK, Redson, Mei
Reader: Gender Neutral
Relationship: Romantic
Content Warnings: None! :)
------------------------------------
MK
Tumblr media
bro is a simp. he would be a simp. look at this boy and tell me he is not
Mei is his wingman, obviously. and she does her best
AKA, she has brought up the idea of throwing rocks at your window, MK serenading you while Mei carries the boombox
Whenever you enter Pigsy's shop, MK will be all "Guys! Guys! Be cool! It's them." and he's the only one losing his shit
the gang is surprised that you're the only one who doesn't know about MK's crush on you
he'll sometimes draw you and write your name with a bunch of hearts around it or himself protecting you from a demon
he gushes about you almost constantly. it can be about any interaction he had with you. he will talk to the nearest person about it
Wukong supports it but he's mostly confused but that's fine
father figure approves
will try to show off his powers in front of you
if he ends up admitting his feelings, he's got a flower that reminds him of you and y'all are meeting somewhere so he can do the thing. Mei is probably watching in case everything goes wrong
when you accept, he's so fucking happy and it takes everything in him not to kiss you the second you say yes
Mei
Tumblr media
much like how she'd be MK's wingman, MK is her wingman
She'll show you off to her chat if she's streaming. they'll make a few simp comments about her crush but she acts cool and brushes it off
on the inside, she is worried you might find out and is surprised that you don't
she'll take you for rides on her little dragon bike around the city
you have to go to work? there she is! need a ride to the grocery store? mei knows your location
NOOO it's not because she likes the feeling of your arms wrapped around her while she's driving you around
she's a little bit more upfront about her feelings, but she still has her and MK go through stupid shenanigans to get your attention
she's a little worried about her parents not being approving of you because dragon clan stuff
but I think because of the episode with the dragon sword, her parents would come around
when she wants to tell you, Mei would try to disguise it as you two hanging out as friends
MK and Sandy are following you two around while you're both having fun
Then, Mei takes you somewhere a little more remote and admits her feelings. When you say yes, she throws herself onto you and is the happiest Dragon Horse Girl in the world
Redson
Tumblr media
this motherfucker is a tsundere through and through
This time, they have two wingmen, MK and Mei. but she doesn't like it
he'll try to shoo them away every time they make a comment about him making a move on you
Redson will bring you the finest jewelry in the world if you wear it
if you don't he'll make little trinkets for you
either way, he's giving you gifts since I see that as his love language
each gift redson gives you has a seal on it, showing anyone that tries anything with you that you're under the demon bull family's protection
If you notice something, cue the flames
she will deny everything that has to do with their crush on you
Once he confesses, that's when he'll ask MK and Mei for any kind of help, and they're on thin fucking ice already
She brings you another piece of jewelry, however, this one is a bit grander than the others. He treats it like a marriage proposal even though they're reminded several times that you have to date someone first before you marry them
You accept it though, and that's all that matters to him

Do you have any other drawings of Redboy (JTTW ver)? I absolutely love your design for him, and the henna is a beautiful touch, I'd love to see more if you have any other drawings of him! :)
I also wanted to know how you came up with your design for him, and what inspired different aspects of his design?
(I really admire you btw and your art is so beautiful!)
Thank you! Red boy is based a lot off of where I set him in the story. To me, Princess Iron Fan is Bengali and Demon Bull King is southern Chinese.
I believe he’s a total mommas boy since she misses him so much when Wukong meets her, so the pants and henna come from his love for her. I really really need to work on his design more, I’m not entirely happy with his outfit and I need to change his hair, but he’s still my cutie.
A lot of how I draw Red Son in LMK comes from my JTTW design for him, like his horns and tail, so I definitely need to mix it up haha. Truth be told, I’m actually nervous about showing my JTTW work here, since people have already started copying my designs for certain characters, but I suppose it can’t be helped haha.
