#lmk lao tzu

[quitealotofsodapop]

So Mk gets surprise eggo because of paint and confined space and lack of food? Imagine that he has no idea what’s wrong with him, he goes to Lao Tzu, and when Lao Tzu goes “congrats on the baby” Everyone just kinda stops.

And Mk bursts into tears so loudly that all of heaven can hear. He’s all “I can’t have a baby, it’s too dangerous!” And “I’m not ready!” Pigsy and Wukong are trying to comfort him, and the poor boys is just a sobbing mess.

And Lao Tzu is just standing there like “?????”

Sorry MK XD You're getting Egged

Bonus Anon asks:

Referencing this post where someone pointed out that MK could theoretically create a Stone Egg + the sequel that pointed out that he'd most likely do it on accident.

I could see this most likely happening in the Canon! verse since I bet the other au MK's would be more wary of Stone Egg mishaps. But I could 100% see it happening in the SlowBoiled au since that causes more drama.

And as much as I love the idea of MK becoming *ahem* egg'd as the result of a bad guy's plans or a huge catarosphe, I think it would fit more if MK did it completely on accident.

So the idea:

Post S3 MK decides that he needs some "Me time" and takes a break from work and training after the whole "Saving the world from a bone demon"-thing. He just needs some time to shut off completely from his responsibilities in the city. His friends understand and wish him well, even though they're worried since MK won't tell him *Where* he's taking a break to.

"Where" turns out to be a cool cave-let MK found while exploring FFM during S2 with no Monkey King to hover over him. Its quiet, it's secluded, its completely off-grid... But MK just can't relax. His brain is all busy, and everytime he sleeps he sees Her.

So he starts painting. And drawing. And using charcoal. Maybe a little rough pottery with the muddy clay-like stuff in the water? And soon enough he's looking like his Artist Clone with how caked in material he is.

In liu of going to sleep and risking terrible bone demon nightmares, MK meditates like how he saw the Monkey King do. In these moments his thoughts wander into deep, dark teritory. Real "call of the void"-type of thoughts.... hey should he eat something? It's been... oh gosh Pigsy's gonna killl him if he doesn't at least text to tell him how his sabbatical is going.

After his inpromtu vacation is up, MK feels... really gross? Maybe thats cus he hasn't really washed or slept or ate, or spoken to anyone in all that time. Weird.

Pigsy asks him how long it's been since MK last ate a full meal, and huffs with disappointment at his nervous laugh before pouring his son a bowl of noodles.

Bouts of nausea and dizziness follow MK everywhere afterwards. He had no idea why - paint fumes maybe? Did some toxic chemical seep into his skin? Did he get sick somehow from isolating himself in that cave? Is that Jin and Yin trying to take over the city?

At somepoint in the utter chaos of S4 likely as the rest of the gang are recieving training from Subodhi; a certain alchemist meets MK to whisper a few questions into his ear.

Lao Tzu: "I was told that you've been experiencing extreme power fluctuations for the last few weeks. May I run a few test to rule out any abnormalities?"

MK: "Oh cool, no probs! Just don't put me in that furnace thing-y."

(*a few tests later*)

Lao Tzu: "Ok great news, it's not a curse or medical problem."

MK: "Phew! Then why is my body feels like its "glitching" all the time?"

Lao Tzu: "Thats a decaying glamour spell. Its likely that you had one affixed to you shortly before you were given up by your creators."

MK: "Glamour spell...? Wait, then what about my powers wigging out?"

Lao Tzu: "Oh thats easy. You're just pregnant."

MK (has not Done the Do): "What!?"

Mere seconds after Lao Tzu gives the diagnosis - MK just starts bawling.

He doesn't want this! Not now! He does want to have kid while all This is going on! The world might be ending for Buddha's sake!

MK is having a million panic attacks rn. He wants to have kids, so many, but only in the *Future*! When he's like semi-retired and has a protege of his own to take over the monkey business- HEY WAIT, HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?!?!

Subodhi has to drop the big lore that MK is a Stone Monkey - capable of reproducing asexually under extreme circumstances, in order to clear up the whole immaculate conception part.

Then Lao Tzu has to tell MK that the Stone Egg he carries will likely Kill him since he's (mostly) mortal.

MK starts crying before deciding to tackle the issue Later.

Ofc MK simply doesn't want his family to worry about him what with all this Brotherhood stuff going on... so he just keeps quiet for now.

His family are going to find out soon though. And by Guanyin, Pigsy is gonna freak.

Macaque (and later Wukong), just need to sniff MK once after they reunite to notice whats up.

Wukong offers to grab some No-Baby Spring Water immediately if MK doesnt want to keep the Egg. Macaque briefly panics thinking that the kid got knocked up the old-fashioned way... only to panic harder when he and Wukong determine it to be a Solo-Made Stone Egg(!!!). Cue two panicking fellow Stone Monkeys making MK feel even worse about his conflicted feelings on the matter.

Pls add on what you think so far! :3

Cotton Tails and Borrowed Time: Aftermath and Remix... and Some Stuff Between. Chapter 2

Remix/Aftermath: Actual Bunny Tang AU 1

This is the start to an alternative ending au that was discussed but decided early on to not be the canon ending. A few chapters of this compilation will be set in this au to explore what MAY have happened should Tang not actually mustered up the strength to finally scream his confession at the last moment (so now you have some answers!).

AO3 Link.

Lao Tzu was a fool for thinking that his days had finally gone back to normal.

He thought that, maybe, everything had calmed down since the… what had Erlang Shen called it? The "heist" that had pulled off in their realm.

Losing the furnace wasn't good by any measure, and the damage to the peach tree garden had taken some time to repair. But in the grand scheme of things? He felt he had the right to be a little annoyed that half his lab has been trashed by an unknown intruder.

Though, to be fair, it was impressive they made it up here in the first place.

They all knew who had broken in, it was no secret. But, for whatever reasoning he may have been using, the Jade Emperor had decided… not to punish them.

Granted. Lao Tzu supposed this made sense in their circumstances. What with “destiny” and all that being a key phrase lately. And the Monkie Kid had not only stopped Spider Queen AND the Lady Bone Demon… he was also the successor of Sun Wukong.

No one wanted the ire of Sun Wukong right now. Not when things had only just gone back to normal again.

Or.

They HAD.

Until Lao Tzu heard a voice calling to him in his very empty laboratory. Where no one else should be. At all.

“Hello? Lao Tzu, sir?”

The ancient immortal looked around, certain that he must have been mishearing something as a voice. His lab had been locked down to ensure that he could focus on his work for the day. And yet… it certainly sounded like someone had called his name. And rather close by, at that.

"I'm down here!"

Lao Tzu blinked for a moment before slowly tilting his head downward as he stood to look over the books stacked before him… to behold a little brown spotted rabbit standing among the empty vials on the edge of this desk.

"Uh…"

"We need your help," the rabbit said with a scowl. Or… what passed as a scowl on a small rabbit face. A very animated rabbit face that should not have been speaking. “Jin and Yin said you were our best bet.”

"... oh what in the name of Buddha did the twins do now?"

~

“We didn’t mean to!” Yin protested weakly. “Well, not to him… and not like this…”

“So you meant to,” Lao Tzu repeated with a scowl.

“Well… kinda?” Jin said with an awkward chuckle that trailed off into a soft squeak of fear as the immortal scowled at him. “Look, like Yin said this wasn’t what was SUPPOSED to happen. He wasn’t even the intended target.”

“And who, pray tell, was the intended victim?”

The twins both flinched at Lao Tzu’s question, looking at each other as if they were slowly deflating balloons.

“... the… Monkie Kid?” Jin offered slowly.

“Of course,” Lao Tzu said knowingly as he nodded his head. “Both of you are still as thick headed as you were the day I banished you for unauthorized experiments.”

“And we have learned our lesson!” Yin protested for a moment before deflating again. “No more random experiments! It just… took some time?”

“A few centuries,” Lao Tzu said with a sigh. “I don’t have time to argue semantics with you, and I am certain your friend doesn’t either.”

“I wouldn’t exactly say we’re friends, more like… unfortunate acquaintances.”

That voice was also new, the fourth in this very odd group that had come to see him.

Jin and Yin, the metal brothers who were once his lab assistants that he had so long ago banished from ever returning (lot of good that did him). Pigsy, the contrarian who had just spoken, was a pig demon chef who Lao Tzu swore resembled… someone he was familiar with once. And of course, being held in the chef’s arms…

“I think I have done enough waiting for a lifetime,” the rabbit from before said. “Shouldn’t have waited as long as I did before, now look where I am… but also at this point, since nothing else is going to change, I will wait as long as I need to.”

The small brown bunny, speckled with brown spots of a lighter shade, with more expression in his face than should be possible (and, Lao Tzu could swear, eye bags indicative of sleep deprivation), was Tang. Was being the operative word here.

He knew of this human. Or this rabbit who was once human, as had been explained to him. Everyone in the Celestial Realm knew of Tang Sanzang’s chosen disciple.

But he wasn’t about to spill the beans on that.

Lao Tzu raised a hand, pinching the bridge of his nose as he thought this over. Surely he couldn’t just leave the chosen disciple of THE Tang Sanzang high and dry. He would never hear the end of it, even if it was just the monk coming to him and politely asking him for assistance for the rest of the foreseeable future. But he also had more than a full workload to contend with. 

However…

“Who’s bright idea was this?” He asked.

“We-” “It’s my fault.”

Yin looked at his brother, eyes wide with shock. “Jin, wh-”

“I’m the older brother,” he said. “I should have thought this through, it’s my fault. I’ll take whatever punishment is needed, just… help the bunny guy out, will ya?”

This took the immortal by surprise. He couldn’t deny that. The last time he saw the twins they would constantly blame each other or pick another target to stack the blame on. For Jin to take the blame, even if his brother was at fault or they were equally so…

“Then congratulations,” Lao Tzu announced. “Until we are able to find a counter-curse for your lagomorph friend? You will temporarily be my assistant for the time being.”

“Really!?” Jin asked in surprise and clear relief. “Then we’ll get started right away, Yin and I will-”

“No.”

“... no?” Yin asked after a second of silence from everyone.

“No,” Lao Tzu continued. “Jin will be my assistant. ONLY Jin. If he wants to take responsibility for this? Then he will take ALL of the responsibility for this. First order of business?” He turned around, gesturing to the cluttered table behind him. “You will finish my annotations for me, they’re basic enough that I am sure you remember how to, while I fetch all the necessary materials from my archives. I will be back in a few hours. You had BEST be finished by then so we may get started.”

~

Thump.

“No.”

Thump.

“Tang, you will die.”

THUMP.

“TANG, I’M NOT GIVING YOU A PIECE OF MY CHEESECAKE!” Pigsy yelled with a laugh, holding his plate high above his head so the rabbit in front of him couldn’t try another grab at it.

“But it has STRAWBERRIES in it, I CAN SMELL THEM!” Tang protested, letting out another angry THUMP.

“There’s enough sugar ON the strawberries that I can feel my teeth rotting,” Pigsy said as he popped the last bite into his mouth. The huffing sound Tang made in anger almost made him laugh. Almost. “Besides, I think we can find you something more your taste if we ask around.”

The two of them had remained in the Celestial Realm for the time being, Yin returning home on the insistence of his brother to inform Scorpion Demoness and the others that Tang was at least being helped in some way. Pigsy had brought a snack for each of them, but not realizing how long they would choose to be there it wasn’t quite enough for either of them. So, plan B it was.

Tang clearly did not like plan B, as he thumped again and let out a low growl.

“I know you’re hungry, but I wouldn’t want to give you anything I thought could hurt you,” Pigsy said softly, ducking his head and rubbing his face. “You’ve been through too much this week, I don’t want you going through some kind of… rabbit food poisoning too, Tang.”

As if Tang had only just realized what he was doing he stopped, looking down at his front paws for a moment.

"I'm sorry, Pigsy…"

Pigsy looked up at the sudden apology, leveling Tang with a look of confusion. 

"Tang, it's ok. You’re frustrated! You're still getting used to being a rabbit, once you're back to n-"

"No, not that!" Tang said, thumping his back legs again and groaning. "No, I… I'm sorry you have to help me when I'm like this. If I had just been honest…"

"There's no point in blaming yourself for what you didn't do right now," Pigsy said as he reached over and asked for permission to pick Tang up by holding out his arms. Once Tang slowly hopped over to him, Pigsy picked up his friend into a gentle hug. "We can get through this."

“When you say it so surely I almost believe you.”

“You better, because I wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t the truth,” Pigsy said.

They sat there for a moment, the chef holding his friend as carefully as he could. He reached up, scratching behind Tang’s ears for a moment before stopping himself.

“Sorry!” He said, rubbing the back of his head. “Shouldn’t just. Do stuff like that without asking you.”

“... you can scratch my ears if you want to,” Tang said slowly. “It felt nice.”

So he did.

After a few minutes they made their way to one of the gardens (NOT the Immortality Peach garden, Pigsy made sure of that) and were immediately surrounded by the peach maidens who had taken a break to eat there.

Pigsy was absolutely NOT jealous about how they cooed over the rabbit that was his favorite freeloader and gave him all the fruits and chin scratches he desired.

(He absolutely WAS smug about how it was his arms Tang jumped back into when everything got too overwhelming.)

~

Tang sighed, looking up at the dejected golden demon flipping through the books and scrolls before him.

It had been a day so far, Pigsy returning to the human realm for work on Tang’s own insistence while the rabbit stayed in the Celestial Realm on Lao Tzu’s suggestion (with the promise that they would immediately send for him should anything come about).

Jin clearly was trying to make things better. Make up for what had happened. At first, Tang couldn't be sure if it was because he was being punished with consequences, but the way he and his brother would brush off consequences in the past when MK would delve them out (mostly by just going back to scheming within a weeks time) was different.

The way he was willingly putting himself in front of his brother to accept the blame was different.

Jin… seemed to genuinely realize they messed up.

And Tang was also sure, as a way to punish himself for messing up, Jin had not slept at all. Not if the bags under his eyes were any indication.

“How are you holding up?” Tang chanced asking, noting how the golden demon froze for a split second. “It looks like you’ve gotten a lot done.”

“Hardly,” Jin said with a dry laugh. “Well, yeah, but not when you look at everything I still have to go through. But copying as much relevant information as I can into a new tome for reference is a good start.”

“You’re not as cocky as you normally are,” Tang noted. No use in being uncertain of what he could say here, not right now. 

Jin groaned, leaning back to look at the ceiling.

“Hard to keep up the cocky attitude without my bro here, and after admitting I messed up, AND with Lao Tzu keeping an eye on me, AND not having slept in like two days-”

“JIN,” Tang interrupted in horror. “You need to sleep EVENTUALLY.”

“Since when are we on a first name basis?” Jin asked, but his tone wasn’t put off or mocking. Just curious. He was almost like a different person in these circumstances. “I thought you’d be calling me like… “ey, Gold Asshole” or something.”

“I could,” Tang admitted with a nod. “But I won’t. There’s no point in that when you already clearly feel like shit. Besides… I want to give you a chance. For SD.”

“... we fucked up bad, bunny man,” Jin said after a moment. “We just wanted to mess with the Monkie Kid a bit and now I’m back with my old mentor but without my bro, feeling guilty, and…”

“I can vouch for you,” Tang said. “With Scorpion Demoness. I can’t make her FORGIVE you, can’t even guarantee she’ll ever want to consider being friends again. But with you doing this much to set things right, I can at least tell her you’re trying.”

“Sun Wukong’s going to tell her it’s because he threatened me,” Jin countered.

“He’s not here now,” Tang said with a shrug. “And you’re still working.”

“... you’re a smart guy after all,” Jin admitted without countering this time, stretching before rubbing his eyes and getting back to copying. “I’ll get some sleep soon, but I want to finish this set of old scrolls first. Not sleeping I can deal with, but it’d be easier if I wasn’t so tense. Heh, maybe if I do something for ya I can get a break AND relax a bit. Lao Tzu DID tell me to get you anything you need.”

Tang thought for a moment.

"You could… give me some scritches?"

Jin paused in his writing, slowly looking up and staring at Tang in disbelief.

"Scritches?"

"Yes."

"You want me? The guy who is at least 80% responsible-" "50%, stop that." "-for you being a bunny… to give you scritches?"

"They might make you feel better," Tang said firmly. "I know they make Pigsy feel better. And I like them, so I want them."

"... you're fuckin weird, mate," Jin said in even stronger disbelief. But he still reached across the table to gently scratch Tang behind the ears all the same.

~

“So… I’m stuck like this?”

“I didn’t say that,” Lao Tzu continued. “There’s nothing to suggest we could not develop something that will… at least give you a humanoid form, should we be unable to undo this. You just will most likely never be fully human again. At worst, anything we try will simply fail to take and you will remain as you are for the time being. Quite frankly, it’s a miracle that you are still sentient… but at the same time, that means that whatever my ex-students did was either incomplete or mixed in a way that should be considered an unprecedented scientific and magical achievement.”

“Is that good or bad?” Pigsy asked, picking up on the tone of confusion and awe in the immortal’s words.

“Neither, it means they’re still as reckless as the day I banished them from my lab.”

Tang remained silent for a moment, sat on the table between the immortal and his chef.

“Well then… If I have to be a rabbit demon, I’ll be a rabbit demon,” he said with as much of a smile as he could muster on his rabbit face. “Better to try and fail than never take a chance. Right Pigsy?”

“Right,” Pigsy agreed with a confident nod.

“Good,” Lao Tzu said with a smile. “Then we can try our first trial counter-curse in the morning. We’ll try once a week so your body can recover until we find one that takes. You may very well have a humanoid body again soon.”

Tang wished he remembered rabbits were fragile at that exact moment, because in excitement he jumped right off the desk.

He didn’t have anything to worry about, though. Not with Pigsy there to catch him.

“What am I going to do with you?” Pigsy muttered with no malice in his tone as he reached up to scratch Tang behind the ears again. 

He waited for Tang to nod, rubbing his hoof like claws through his fur carefully.

A purr (or at least that rabbit teeth grinding that counted as a purr) could not be held back in response from Tang. He knew he was in good hands, figuratively and literally.

And he would not wait a second longer to act on his feelings once he was no longer in this rabbit body.

Another celestial AU roleplay

This was during the pre modern timeline before lmk. Piper who was 10 yrs old was making some elixirs for practice

Here’s what she made ( these aren’t mine btw)

But since her alchemy talent attracted the celestial realm they tasked you to investigate Lao tzu also came to investigate too you and Lao tzu were looking in the window secretly so Piper wouldn’t see you

Woah Piper is excellent at her work :0 I think those elixirs are nice!

Sorry but as of now I don’t have the urge to roleplay with anyone :_)…

But I do think this concept is nice and I’d definitely wanna hear more about it! <3

#jiao yue answers

[digitaldoeslmk]

What are the problems with Wukong’s and Macaque’s relationship in the show (you can ignore this question if you want to)

Can we get a timeline for the AU in picture form pls🙏? I’m sorry I’m just getting way too confused

And also, can we get the rest of the crew design like Tang, Pigsy, Sandy, and Mo

Oh, and one more thing are the golden silver demons still the same as they are in the book.

Um, do you mean a jttw timeline or a lmk one or both?? just for the sake of clarity cus imma be honest, the lmk timeline just canon wise is a mess xDD but i can give you the general timeline for my au?? im sorry im unsure what you meant here xvx

and I'll work on their designs soon!! im a bit busy this week and the next, so designs will be on a drip feed for a bit. havent even gotten to LBD yet ahsbwbs

as for the horn brothers, they are the same, yes! in the book they were two apprentices of Lao Tzu who were sent by Guanyin to test the pilgrims, and that still goes. except that their little adventure on the mortal world got them wanting to break bad, which had them kicked out by Lao Tzu as punishment, so now they are demons again.

and for your first question.... i might answer later, i might not. i am very lmk critical and im not shy about it, but if i do explain all my grievances eith those two monkeys, this sideblog might turn into a rant blog ahsbhsbzbsb

So when did Lao tzu and Subodhi started to investigate Yeva's power during the post jttw timeline before chang'e hit both of them with her frying pan

Oh that was just a comedic scene play, what really went down was when Yeva was 12 years old (After supposedly the events of Book 1 of my fanfic), That is by the time she was sent to the Celestial Realm to try and hone her powers (A couple years before the present timeline of LMK).

(Chang'e did not harm Lao Tzu and/or Master Subhodi during writing)

Forever Yours Chapter 16

LMK Wukong x Bao Li

Be warned: There’s still a bit of drunk behavior ahead!

First Previous

Bao Li chased Wukong all through The Cloud Palace, running from room to room.

Despite being completely drunk, Wukong was still lightning fast, much to Bao Li’s dismay.

“Don’t worry, babeh! Imma gonna get you those flowers!” Wukong slurred out as he kept on running.

“Sun…Wukong! I don’t want…any flowers….Just stop…running….” Bao Li panted as she took a moment to rest her legs before continuing the chase.

It all came to a head when Wukong stumbled across Lao Tzu’s lab.

“Oooh! I bet there’s gonna be some flowers in here!” Wukong giggled with a hiccup as he barged into the lab.

“Oh goodness no! Oh no! No! No!” Bao Li shrieked as she followed him in.

“Less see…Flowers…Flowers- Ooh! Wazz that?!” Wukong’s eyes lit up.

While there were no flowers, he immediately noticed several large gourds sitting on a nearby table.

With a drunken giggle, Wukong flopped onto the table and picked up a gourd.

“Wazz inside here-” -Wukong shook the gourd- “-Oooh! Candeh!”

Without thinking, Wukong popped open the gourd and begun downing the contents.

He then popped open another.

Then another.

Then another.

And another.

Soon all of the gourds had been drained empty.

Bao Li rushed inside and let out a panicked shriek.

“NO! DON’T EAT THOSE! THEY’RE ONE OF LAO TZU’S EXPERIMENTS!”

Bao Li rushed over to the table and read the label:

Pills of Immortality

Bao Li put a hand on her chest and let out a sigh of relief.

At least Wukong wasn’t eating anything dangerous.

Wasting no time, Bao Li took in a deep breath and held out her arms.

“I didn’t want to have to resort to this but you’ve left me no choice!”

FSSH!!

With a bright glow, pink crystals engulfed Wukong’s body, causing him to drop the last empty gourd.

It was then the pills’ effects begun to kick in.

BOOM!

With a powerful golden flash, Wukong burst free from his crystal prison.

“Ugh…What happened?” He groaned as he rubbed his throbbing head.

“Do you really need another reminder?! You ate all of The Immortal Peaches, gotten yourself drunk and now you’ve stolen from Lao Tzu!” Bao Li snapped as she threw her hands in the air.

Wukong looked around at the empty gourds.

“Oh…That’s not good..”

“Gee you think?!” Bao Li huffed sarcastically.

“Well there’s only one thing left to do now!” Wukong declared as he hopped off the table.

“Find The Jade Emperor and hope he spares us?”

“Nope! I’ve got a better idea!

Before Bao Li could respond, Wukong scooped her up bridal style, summoned his cloud, and flew back to Flower Fruit Mountain.

With a smooth landing, Wukong hopped off his cloud and begun to carry Bao Li back to their temple.

“Wukong! What are you doing?! We can’t just run away from our problems!” Bao Li snapped as she wriggled in his grip.

“Pssh, we’re not ‘running away’. We’re just gonna wait for everything to blow over!” Wukong scoffed as he kept walking.

“That literally sounds like running away-”

“Anyhow, it probably won’t be long until they forget all about this whole thing.” Wukong mused casually as he gently placed Bao Li down on their hammock.

“What?! Sun Wukong how do you expect all of Heaven to forget about missing peaches, missing wine, and the missing pills?!” Bao Li snapped as she hopped out of the hammock.

“Hey! I’m pretty sure most of that stuff can be replaced. It’s not like I stole jewels or something. Besides, it’s not like they know I’m the one who stole everything or anything.” Wukong chuckled as he plopped into the hammock.

“Replaced?! Replaced?! You honestly think everything you stole can be replaced?! I can’t believe you!”

With an enraged huff, Bao Li stormed out of the temple.

“Peaches! Wait! Come back!” Wukong pleaded as he jumped out of the hammock and chased after her.

It wasn’t long before Bao Li bumped into a very distressed Macaque.

“Bao Li! Thank goodness I found you! Where have you and Wukong been? I’ve been worried sick about you guys!” Macaque growled as he folded his arms.

“Why don’t you ask your best friend?” Bao Li grumbled as she tried to continue on her way.

Macaque was about to watch her leave when a spark of courage jolted through him.

“Wait!”

Bao Li turned to look at him.

“Can you at least tell me what happened? Please?” Macaque pleaded.

Bao Li let out a sigh.

“Fine. I suppose I should probably tell you what’s been going on.”

And with that, Bao Li told Macaque everything.

From the invite to heaven to all of things Wukong had stolen, Macaque was outraged to say the least.

First Wukong runs off to Heaven again without him and now he’s running away from the mess he made?!

Macaque let out a low growl as he balled his fists.

“Where is he?” Macaque’s voice was cold as ice.

Bao Li flinched a bit at Macaque’s angry demeanor.

“Last I saw him he was in the temple.”

“Really? I’ll be right back.”

And with that, Macaque stormed off to find Wukong.

Luckily, he didn’t have to travel far. For Wukong was still chasing after Bao Li.

The moment he saw Macaque, he stopped dead in his tracks.

“Oh hey Macaque. Ok I know I’ve been gone for a while but I can explain-”

“You don’t have to explain anything! Bao Li told me everything! How could you just ditch me for Heaven again?!” Macaque snarled through clenched teeth.

“Ok so-”

“And stealing those peaches, the wine, and those pills?! What the hell were thinking?! Do you have any idea how much trouble you’re in?!” Macaque interjected as he threw his hands in the air.

“Well-”

“How much trouble you’ve put Bao Li in?!”

In that moment, the reality of the situation hit Wukong like a sack of bricks.

This was no longer just his mess.

He had unintentionally dragged Bao Li into his antics and now her life could be on the line.

Wukong may have been immortal but he knew Bao Li wasn’t.

Wukong’s heart sank into his stomach.

What has he done?

Next

I just remember the Jin and Yin brothers what will their story play considering Lao Tzu and the fact monkey asked heaven to u know… what will happen this time?

Their beef will be more personal towards Sun Wukong in this one- they blame him for them getting kicked out of the Celestial Realm. I'll also be changing one of the calabash's abilities their no the same...and giving the sword an ability. Unfortunately they won't be the lovable doofs like in LMK. Not void of humor but, ya'know LMK Jin and Yin vibes just wouldn't fit here.

In the original, Wukong managed to beat them on his own- with tenacity and theft, here it'll be much the same but with more teamwork as is with much of the story. Wukong will recognize the diamond snare once he gets a good look at it. Ao Li and Pigsy will be the ones using their shapeshifting this go around.

Laozi won't be making an appearance though.

Sorry MK XD Part 2:

(Link to Part 1)

Putting these two asks from @writingamongther0ses + @weaverpop (who asked Part 1) together for convenience:

It's not everyday that you learn that you're an asexually-reproducing eldritch stone monkey spirit and that you're in-fact Pregnant.

First person he tells immediately is Mei.

Not seeking advice, but comfort.

Mei has a moment of shock (her bestie is preggers), awe (she's gonna be an auntie!), and horror (it's a almost-always-fatal type of pregnancy). She hasn't any experience with this kind of dilemma. She does give MK a coarse glare when he (bashfully) explains how it likely happened - having a vacation holed away in a mountain cave isn't a bright idea when you're a stone monkey. She does give uber support for whatever MK decides to do with the pregnancy. Lots of crying hugs are shared.

However it's still S4...

When the rest of the gang are still busy being trained by Subodhi, MK is left alone for a bit to contemplate his situation - it's the first time he's had some time alone without Lao Tzu bothering him for medical testing.

Macaque appears asking whats up.

MK just starts bawling.

Macaque: "Whoa! Didn't think you were the crying type, kiddo." MK: "Monkey King is gone. The Jade Emperor is dead. I might be some sort of chaos entity. And I'm incubating an egg that will kill me. I'M ALLOWED TO CRY!" Macaque, shocked: "... can you repeat the last part again?"

Ofc much like Wukong, Macaque would 100% offer to get MK some "No-More-Baby Spring Water" from the Kingdom of Women - as he himself is aware of the extreme risks a stone egg carries. But the suggestion just makes MK cry even harder.

Cus MK *wants* this baby. It feels like something he has a true choice in. He didn't have an ideal start to life, and he wants to give his "Egg" a chance he didn't get to have, no matter the bad timing or risk.

Macaque insists MK reconsiders after the Brotherhood are dealt with.

Once they reunite with Wukong in the Memory Scroll, Wukong just *knows* something is off with MK. Gold-Vision clicks on and Wukong makes a startled gasp!

Wukong: "EGG."

Macaque, nods: "Egg."

Wukong: "Since when?"

MK: "Uh... a couple of weeks. Remember when I went on that break? I sorta... accidentally semi-buried myself in clay and paint for a week or something."

Wukong, pauses to think: "Idiot cub!"

(*Wukong pulls MK into a soft hug, and monkey-chirps that he's going to be ok. Worried tears stream down both of their faces*)

Once they get back to the crew and begin devising a plan to take down the Brotherhood, MK discovers somehting unfortunate from Nezha.

Nezha: "By the way Monkie Kid, I wish you good health." MK: "Huh??" Nezha, not reading the room: "Your condition. Lao Tzu was very excitable, even with the invasion from the Brotherhood putting a damper on things. No matter your choice, I wish you swift recovery." MK: "How many people know?!" Nezha: "Word spreads fast, practically all of the Celestial Realm knows at present. Gold Star of Venus was the first informed obviously. And of course Lao Tzu's assistant was made aware of your condition - how she's related to Jin and Yin I'll never know. And many of us in the barracks learned it from Lao Tzu himself talking in the halls." MK: "wut" (⊙_⊙) Pigsy, angry-worried: "...what condition are we talking about here!?"

MK gives an abridged version of whats going on with him to the gang, nearly giving dear Dadsy and Baba Tang heart attacks in the process.

Pigsy, fuming: "It's was that Red Prince punk wasn't it!?" MK: "Dadsy please calm down! I made it myself!"

Wukong and Macaque continue to offer the Spring Water so that MK doesn't have to go through with the process, but the monkey boy has made his decision on the matter clear. He wants his Egg. And if it comes down to him needing to weigh the price of immortality to survive and raise his kid, then he'll take it.

Now back to saving the world...

Azure Lion is ultimately defeated not just by the fury of a pregnant Shi Baomu, but by the worried protective power of multiple gods and immortals coming to MK's defence. Particularly with a giant Jade-Toothed Rake (Pigsy), the power of the Golden Cicada (Tang), the flames of a dragon and a god (Mei and Nezha), and the backup of the Queen Mother of the West herself - who pretty much rips Azure Lion in half with her bare claws in retribution for her felled mate.

Flower Fruit Mountain is still split in two. But it bursts back into life shortly thereafter.

The cosmos is still fractured, but the Queen Mother has taken her husband's burden in place of Nezha (he insisted but the Queen Mother dismissed him since he "was but a mere child").

The beach party occurs and the gang is still coming to terms with MK's condition.

Especially the Demon Bull Family. And especially if Red Son managed to dodge the Scroll in this timeline.

DBK: "When am I to expect my grandcalf?" Red Son: "FATHER!" MK: *shrugs noncommittally while eating an ice cream*

A little bit lore of my lmk oc, Lian Cha also Ft. Jiang Xiao lu by @madammonkie

warning : mentions of verbal abuse and murder

cha is their surname so i will call them Lian

Lian comes from a family that generated from a long line of celestial servants, it’s not clear who’s the Cha family really serve but they serve anyone celestial and has enough power, like Lao tzu, Ao guang, the jade emperor, Kuan yin, Buddha and many more.

Lian’s father, Lan Cha (not to confuse with Lian) is very strict about this and always train Lian and his big brother, Xun Cha to be the “perfect” servant.

when Lian’s mother passed away Lan Cha became more strict and straight up verbally abusing Lian and Xun if they did anything “wrong”.

one night Xun has a big fight with their dad until their dad pick up his spear and stabbed Xun in the heart

well Xun didn’t straight up dead because he is immortal and grabbed a knife to defend himself and slashed Lan’s eyes resulting in Lan stabbed deeper into Xun’s heart and ultimately killing him

let me explain, yes Xun is immortal but the type of immortal who don’t age but can be killed if something does serious damage to his body, this also applies to Lian and Lan.

Lian who saw all of this clearly horrified and traumatized him, Lian run out of the windows and stumbled to Erlang who smells blood from Lian’s home

Lian explain everything to Erlang and Erlang quickly arrest Lan and take Lian in to be his student along side Nezha

so that’s how Nezha and Lian met, they both bond over shitty fathers

you might be asking since Lan is arrested why don’t Lian didn’t became an attendant ? the answer is.... because Lian likes Nezha (in a platonic way of course), and their sense of responsibility to be a some kind of servant, its just run in their blood 

now it’s time for little funfacts about Lian

-> Lian is asexual demiromantic

-> Lian is sleep deprived number 2 after Nezha himself

-> this is cause by his anxiety and nightmares after the whole night accident thing, the only way to put him to sleep is warm blankets or platonically cuddling with Nezha or Xiao lu 

-> scratch being in a brotherly relationship with nezha they are platonically married your honor 

-> Lian sees Erlang as a father figure obv

-> often practicing archery to clear of his head or blow off some steam and by often i mean everyday

-> their head dress is actually is their bow gifted by Nezha

-> likes to gift Xiao lu little trinkets, such as a clear candy lotus, cookies, apple carving

-> love languange is gift gifting and physical touch (head pats, hugs, etc) platonic or romantic 

-> very, very bitter towards Wukong cuz he hurt Nezha but tolerating him

-> *sees Mk, Red son and Mei *brother mode activated (this also happens when they sees xiao lu

The 8 Most Powerful Artifacts in History according to the World of Lego Monkie Kid

Okay, this screenshot was taken in the Season 1, episode 3. Princess Iron Fan was talking about Mei’s family Legendary Dragon Blade when she let out the holograms of the “most powerful artifacts in history.”

I’ll try to identify these holograms. 

Disclaimer: I maybe proven wrong by the time future seasons of LMK come.

1. The Wheels of Fire and Wind / Fenghuo Lun (风火轮)

The Wheels of Fire and Wind were used by Nezha, a powerful child god and warrior, who fought the Monkey King and later on became allies. 

Nezha uses the wheels to summon supernatural fire  and travel great distances by standing on top of them. [1]

2. Diamond Snare OR Shimmering  Golden Rope

The Diamond Snare was made by Lao Tzu. This was the weapon used to finally capture the Monkey King while fighting Erlang Shen (nephew of the Jade Emperor) in Journey to the West. 

The Diamond Snare has another form which is the Golden Jade Ring, used by the Single-Horned Rhinoceros King to suck away weapons. [3]

This can also be the Shimmering Golden Rope or Huang Jinshen (幌金绳) is previously a waist sash of Lao Tzu. It is one of the many treasures of the Gold and Silver Demons. By throwing the rope, it will instantly bind to an enemy. [1]

3. Magic Demon-Destroyer Staff / Jiàng Yāo Bǎo Zhàng (降妖宝杖)

While there wasn’t any mentioned unique capabilities, it was said that this weapon was made by Lu Ban, the Chinese deity of contractors and builders. [4]

 It is wielded by Sandy in Journey to the West.

4. Banana Leaf Fan / Bajiao Shan (芭蕉扇)

Princess Iron Fan’s Banana Leaf Fan that is capable of summoning cyclones and storms. [1] This weapon was one of the conflicts between the Monkey King and the Demon Bull King.

5. The Golden Staff / Ruyi Jingu Bang (如意金箍棒)

The Monkey King's staff made of iron and gold. While few can lift it (it weighs 7,960 kg), not many can command it as it only listens to the Monkey King alone.

Rú yì meaning "as you wish"

Jīn meaning "gold" or "metals"

Gū meaning "band" or "ring"

Bang meaning "staff" or "stick"

Before it was the "Ru Yi Jin Gu Bang", it served as the stabilizer of the four seas named "Tian He Ding Di Shen Zhu Tie." It was made by Lao Tzu and acts as an enormous pillar in the Eastern Sea Dragon King's palace. [8] 

4. Dragon Blade

I haven’t found any source for this yet. But according to the Lego Monkie Kid, it is linked to the Dragon of the West, Ao Run, father of the White Dragon Horse who was Tripitaka’s steed during JTTW.  

Ao Run imbued it with powers so that the true clan member can weild it to protect the family. 

5.  Seven Stars Sword - Qixing Baojian (七星宝剑)

Judging by the marks on its blade, this might be the Seven-Star Sword [5] or Precious Sword of the Dipper [1]. It is made by Lao Tzu and stolen by the Gold and Silver Horned Demon Brothers. [5] It allows them to match the Monkey King’s prowess during battle and were only defeated when the sword was taken away.

The Seven-Star Sword is similar to to Chinese straightswords that have seven brass plugs inserted into the blade.[6] 

However, the marks on the blade above might indicate that this is the Qingfeng Sword (青锋剑). It is wielded by the Southern King of the Buddhist Four Heavnly Kings named Zeng Zhang Tian Wang (增长天王). It could summon winds and a fire-spewing serpent. However, unlike the Seven-Star sword, this weapon has appeared in Investiture of the Gods and not JTTW. [1]

6. Red Boy's Zhang Ba Fire-tipped Spear OR Nezha's Huojian Qiang

This spear can be Red Son’s Zhang Ba Fire-Tipped Spear (丈八火尖枪 zhàng bā huǒ jiān qiāng) that he used to fight with as Red Boy. [7]

Or this can be Nezha’s Fire-Tipped Spear or Huojian Qiang  (火尖枪) that can shoot fire. [1]

7. Purple-Gold Red Gourd /  Zijin Hong Hulu (紫金红葫芦)

I don’t think this is the Calabash in Season 1, Episode 5. I believe this is once again one of the treasures of the Gold and Silver Horned Demon Brothers made (once again) by Lao Tzu. 

The Purple-Gold Red Gourd can capture a living being and reduced them to goo. [1]

8. Precious Sheet- Metal Rake /Shangbao Qinjin Ba (上宝沁金耙)

This weapon is also known as Nine-Toothed Rake or Jiuchi Dingba (九齿钉耙). [1] It is wielded by Zhu Ba Jie or LMK Pigsy's ancestor, Pigsy.

It's made by Lao Tzu and bestowed to him by the Jade Emperor. It resembles an iron farmer’s rake with elaborate carvings. [1]

It’s interesting how there are 8 powerful artifacts when 8 is a lucky number in Chinese numerology.

Overly Sarcastic Productions be like:

The jttw at 100% power; (picture of the crew)

The jttw crew at 99% power; (picture of just sun Wukong)

Though at true power would be Sun Wukong and Guanyin. We won’t see her in lmk probably but weirdly...Guanyin and Sun Wukong are...friends? I think, he stays with her during the six macaque incident to cry and she lets him...

Yup, that sounds about right to me!

Though we have kinda seen Guanyin in LMK, if that one scene in episode 2 with Tang's recounting counts, I have my doubts that we would ever see them properly outside of maybe a vague visage in a dream sequence or another flashback or something similar. There are things I just don't think Flying Bark is going to tackle. We didn't even get to see Lao Tzu outside of his own flashback during the special.

And yes, in the book it really gives off the impression that they are pretty close after everything that happens on the journey. I don't remember every instance he visits her on his own, but the fact he is able to do that multiple times (and in one instance just rushes into her room and she doesn't even really chastise him for it (though, also, special fish related circumstances)) and she usually reacted positively shows they have some kind of a friendly relationship between themselves. The moments between them are some of my favorite in my re-read of the book.
