This is the anon with the LBD request. I copy pasted the plot again, just in case.

I was wondering if you could have the Fem S/O of MK, Red Son, Monkey King, and Macaque who gets possessed by LBD instead of that girl. Like one day after seeing their S/O, they suddenly disappear for hours, then days, then weeks, and they're now going on a desperate attempt to find them only to discover they've been possessed by LBD, and they're in desperate attempt to get them back leading up to their S/O being freed, and the aftermath of defeating LBD.

I'm sorry it took me a while to complete those because i was having small writer blocks. I'm sorry but i couldn't really do specific gender.

MK, Red son, Sun Wukong, Macaque.

Type: Angst

Summary:

The reader got possessed By LBD. How would the Monkeys and Red son react?

MK

He was.. sad, mad, and devastated at the same time. You, his insignificant other that he dearly loved, was taken from him and used against him.

He won't do a harder attack which gave LBD an advantage on her side since MK doesn't want to hurt you.

He would always plead and beg for you to snap out of LBD possession and come back.

C'mon man he's desperate, you're the only one he truly loves and he doesn't want you to go.

He loves you because you doesn't fuss about popularity just on dating someone who's under Monkey king wings. You love him because of him. And that's what he loves about you.

Yet now all he saw was you standing there looking down at him laughing, he knew it's not you. He knew but he seems to always think it was you.

He's upset, the others tried to hold him back. Screaming and crying as he tried to get you back.

Red son

Of all people.. of ALL people, it had to be you. He's in denial. He doesn't want to believe you're gone, he doesn't want to believe what is the truth.

He lost his parents in this chaos and destruction and now you?

He's in grief after accepting that you've been possessed, but not long. He'll go and promise to save you and his parents.

He'll try everything to get you back, even by helping MK and his friends. It's only a last desperate attempt to get you back.

He knows you're still there, he knows he's the one that's gonna get you back. It's only by time, and patience is the key.

He'll get you back no matter the cause and what he has to do, he'll get you back.

He promised and he'll fulfill that promise.

Sun wukong

Pain, pain all over. This man has hatred towards LBD now double it.

The moment he sees you he knows something was wrong. Trying to trick Him isn't that easy LBD.

You know that moment when he was in guilt for his actions? Yeah, now add you his guilt got the best of him even further.

He's going head on. On that one scene where he's about to get rid of LBD and the girl, he's definitely having second thoughts. It's you now in that girl possession.

Don't know but knowing this man, he's doing whatever he can to stop the evil. No not for civilization, not for the people. But for his own entertainment.

So 8/10 he will definitely sacrifice you to stop LBD.

Well until the table turns. You know what I meant.

Macaque

He's speechless, he doesn't know how to react or feel. Out of all LBD had to take you away from him.

At first it was his sworn brothers now you?

He couldn't take another loss and that's a snapping point for him, he'll stop at nothing, obeying every command LBD gave as she promised to free you when it's all done.

He's more aggressive than before— and more dangerous. Which is bad for Mk and his crew.

Overall, he's definitely going through 5 phases of grief before getting revenge on helping MK, but it will take him a lot to convince.

I can actually see Wukong and Macaque actually being offended by the dog toy but then coming to actually be grateful for it. Because baby MK has some nice big shoppers and the strength of his Baba. And those tails make for soem tempting teething toys.

Also even if it was a joke, Erlang would actually put in the work to find a quality, demon grade level chew toy. Like those Kong balls I once saw a reptile house YouTube account give their crocodile for enrichment

Previous post referenced.

Ok I need to find that video. Cus that has baby!Mei written all over it. XD

I can def imagine Mac being the most offended by the chew toy gift, but Wukong sees it with more good-humor.

Macaque: "A chew toy? Really!? Does he think our baby is some kind of mutt!?" Wukong: "To be fair, baby monkeys get their milk fangs at a couple of weeks old. Need to target that teething somewhere other than uh..." *guestures at Mac's chest* Macaque: "...fair point but still! Is it even meant for babies?" Wukong, reading the toy: "Says it's "Dragon-strength" and non-toxic." Macaque: "Why would it need to specify drag- YOUCH!!!" Shadowpeach: *turns to see a certain baby dragon they're babysitting nomming on Mac's tail* Baby!Mei: *already teething with tiny crocodile-like fangs* :3 Wukong: *smug little smile* Macaque: "...give it here." *gives Mei the chew toy* Baby!Mei: *delightedly squeaking the toy as she chews*

Yeah, a few bites from a bored baby dragon quickly changed Mac's mind on the chew toy. It becomes a bit of running joke among the Plum Hill boys to send the monkey couple dog toys for any of the kids' celebrations. The kids freaking love it much to Mac's dismay and Wukong's delight.

Pigsy and Tang are confused Why until Tang gets distracted one day playing with an enrichment toy. Sandy chuckles and offers the kids kittens toys as a joke sometimes - there is def some scratch marks on the cat condos from the Eclipse twins playing on them like jungle gyms.

MK probably still has one of those multi-layered chew plushies from when he was in the "pouncing on anything that moves"-phase. Took him years to realise that it was designed for destructive dogs.

Hello! I love your mkulia analysis..is!..sises..? Analysees? ..Whats the plural of analysis? Anyways - if you've seen the episode already (and want to of course) could you do an analysis on the ending to episode 9? With the elimination and all that, even if it's something obvious. Anyways, good work! They're always a pleasure to read :)

Aww thank you ❤️ I actually did initially think this was just going to be a surface level read of these two for the episode but I watched it again and I noticed two things at the elimination that I haven’t seen anyone else point out and no joke, one of them might actually have some major implications.

First off, I just want to take note of the beginning of the episode where MK and Julia are about to try and fail to fake sympathy. Because why is Julia holding on to MK’s shoulders while they walk over? Like the hand holding I got because it was a reference to The Shining but this is just unnecessary. So hmm… I guess they’re at a casual touching phase?

They then have a confessional where they both agree that relationships shouldn’t be put over the competition. I don’t know how intentional this is but friendship is brought up a few times through this episode between this, the scene where Chris remarks that friendship can be a good thing, which is immediately followed by MK showing up, and the direct comparison he makes at the end of the episode. That is to say, MK and Julia were always on the same page and unlike everyone else here, knew the competition would come first, it’s why they’re here.

Skipping to the end of the challenge, they know the predicament they’re in because everyone else here for some reason votes based on emotions and who isn’t their friend as opposed to who’s realistically a threat to their chances of winning (*cough cough* Priya). MK is certain that Julia will go back on her word to let it play but she doesn’t seem particularly mad? She looks exhilarated at the idea of trying to outdo each other, more than anything.

On the walk to the ceremony, Julia looks incredibly anxious and MK is glaring almost the entire time. I think Julia knew from the start she’s already betrayed MK, she’s just kinda waiting for the shoe to drop. And when it does, she lets out a sigh but unlike the last time she caused MK’s elimination, she’s not at all happy about it. She’s still hunched over like she’s worried about MK’s reaction.

She’s smiling when she explains how she did it but the turn of her eyebrows reads as a nervous smile and Julia doesn’t actually relax until MK praises of she outplayed her by working smarter instead of harder.

Skipping briefly to MK’s exit confessional, it’s worth noting that she said if she did have to play this season again, she wouldn’t change a thing. That to me sounds like she’s saying she wouldn’t change how she’s made an alliance with and trusted Julia. She doesn’t regret the relationship they made while being here.

Okay now first thing I’ve noticed that I haven’t seen anyone else pick up on is that MK was clearly walking down to the dock unaccompanied by Julia. Also she’s scowling as she does so. Probably at Chris or the general situation, who knows. Julia can still be seen in the background at the bonfire. I don’t think it’s a stretch to assume that maybe she didn’t feel good about how the last thing she said to MK was a gloat about herself. The last time Julia betrayed MK, she avoided her because she was afraid she’d be mad. Maybe MK’s reassurance from that time gave Julia the confidence to take the initiative this time and run down to the dock to be sure if their relationship was still okay.

It’s just sweet that Julia has never cared about what anyone here thought of her before and she explicitly said last season she didn’t want friends but she’s so worried about if her relationship with MK would still be intact.

MK’s words and opinions do cut deep for Julia, even if she does try to play it off. This is the most timid her body language has been and even if she tries to downplay it, she still recoils when it looks MK is actually mad at her.

And here is the part where I was saying could have some major implications. Right when MK begins to say she’s not mad at Julia, listen to the leitmotif playing in the background. For people that don’t know, a leitmotif in media is a short, reoccurring piece of music in that’s meant to invoke the idea of a person, thing, memory, event, emotion, etc. For example, with the original run of the show, when something with positive, big, emotional, and usually (but not always) romantic payoff happened, they would play that music that started with the soft piano and strings and build up to the drums and viola. You know the one.

I’m explaining this so you know how significant it is that the leitmotif playing when MK is reassuring Julia almost sounds like it could be the same one as Bowie and Raj’s romantic one from last season. I’m not kidding, it’s sounds like it could just be a toned down and segmented version of it. Go back to season 1 and listen to the background of these two scenes of their relationship starting and solidifying. You can hear it when Bowie starts talking, then briefly again right before Emma starts shouting.

This isn’t just some generic feel good music they have because the show has a completely different leitmotif for friendship moments. You can hear it when Millie apologizes to Priya in the season 1 finale and you can hear it again at the beginning of Raj’s goodbye in his elimination.

I need someone to check me on this, I don’t know if I’m coping. Leitmotifs don’t necessarily have to be the same key, pace, etc. and total drama frequently segments its music, like the bonfire music is constantly cut down. I’m just not sure if I’m hearing what I want to hear and hoping it indicates this is the serious start of something romantic between them.

ANYWAY, the hug.

I think it’s cute and pretty big for Julia’s character that she initiates it. She finally let herself be vulnerable and invites someone else’s affection purely for the sake of affection. And MK accepts with no eyebrow raise, remark, or any hint of her usual sarcasm and dry humor. With MK’s elimination, their relationship has become no strings attached and they still value it regardless.

[fluffypotatey]

Consider an au with the soul mate identify trope of your writing on your skin showing up in the skin of your soulmate. Obviously shadowpeach are soulmates . Would them during their nemesis Era use that to torment/taunt the other(insults, threats,etc) or would they pretend it didn't exist

gonna be honest with you, anon, i am super picky with my soulmate AUs (out of love, i love them so much !and this has made me a harsh grader for them)

anyway

i don't think Macky would use their "link," so to speak, as a means to torment or taunt (not including swk because it was honestly Macadoodle who was the instigator and provoker throughout their nemesis dynamic in lmk). and i feel like Wukong's punishment under the 5 Phases Mt. would cut off their communication the fastest because even if Macky wrote on his arm, Wukong would never see it or be able to write back (which Mackarell is very aware of). after their fight, neither would be able to write back an apology or even scribble some sweet drawing if they still can't find the right words. so, it's possible that because of this 500 year pause of communication, their old habit of scribbling and writing notes on their arms faded pretty quickly.

and then Wukong is free. his arms are no longer fused with rock. his arms are bare, obviously. he feels that old itch to scribble or write something on them, but he doesn't follow through with it. he can't. not after what the both of them had said to each other. sure, centuries passed but how would Wukong know if Macky would be happy to learn he's okay, that he's free. the last thing Macky even said to him was that he was tired of being dragged along by Wukong, so....maybe Wukong shouldn't drag Macky along any further.

and then they meet again, and Macky is pissed. whether at Wukong or for him, it's hard for the monkey king to tell because Macky is mad and bloodthirsty and he is hurting Wukong friends. he is impersonating Wukong, trying to steal his journey--not even his, it's Tripitaka's, his master's-- trying to fool everyone into think that Wukong is nothing more than a demon who desires for nothing but to consume the world of its power and reign as the greatest there's ever been-

then Macky is dead. everything happened to fast, but there the monkey lies on the ground, arms bare. they have always been bare ever since the war they started with Heaven centuries ago. Macky's arms are bare and so are Wukong's.

when Macky wakes up/is revived the memory of their link and broken bond is still fresh, but for Wukong, it's been a long, long time.

Wukong has grown to become used to the scribbles and ink on his arms to never be reciprocated. he doesn't even write or draw on them that much, just when the itch to do something is strong but he's got no spare paper or spare mural room. he even allows his little Suns write or scribble on him just for fun or when they're bored. he even allows MK, who's arms are always filled to the brim with scribbles by the time the kid arrives for training.

Macky did not expect to ever wake up one day and find his arm full of ink. he clawed it at since washing it off didn't work. there's a strange sort of limbo Macky's mind seems to go into whenever he considers the reason for why Wukong is still scribbling, still adding life to their link. all throughout seasons 1 to 3 Macky figured it was because Wukong had eventually moved on enough to stop caring.

and yes, Wukong did move on. but he never stopped caring. Macky hadn't believed that until he was with MK in that scroll.

and it's strange. to find out that the person you once loved still loves you (how much or how different is still unclear). it's even stranger when you realize that you, yourself, do not still hold love from the past but for the present, for the future.

after Azure's defeat, there's some new scribbles on both of their arms. Wukong swears he didn't change his style, so obviously it must be Macquackity himself who'd done it (then he starts to smile while holding his arms tightly to his chest). Macky just huffs and claims that it's better than boredom (then draws on a sun and a moon on the wrist of his arms).

[anxiescape]

Hello! Hope you are having a good day!

I'd like to ask how you came up with Space Macaque in your Stargaze fic?

I am having a good day, thank you! 😊

As for how I came up with Space Macaque... I have been waiting for someone to ask this question. 😈 (this is a long explanation, so buckle in.)

There are two main reasons that I came up with the idea.

1: The Shadowplay episode (obviously). He refers to himself as the moon, and I was like "OwO? I can work with this :3"

2: Specifically, this scene from the first Macaque episode.

I noticed how the little bits of debris were floating around him (even after the initial explosion he caused), and I was like, "huh, kinda like asteroids and moons around a planet, due to the planet's gravitational pull. Interesting." And then I noticed that he's just, like, really at ease and in his element just floating in the air while he mocks MK, all the while blatantly ignoring the laws of gravity.

I wondered if floating was one of his powers (since it doesn't really show up again in the show), and then I was like, "what if it is one of his powers?"

Being the big space nerd that I am (I actually have quite a few space-themed OCs), I set to work designing Moon!Macaque. I actually incorporated a lot of his canonical design into his powers and found ways to tie them into space-related things. I also gave him some extra little powers, such as the random fact that he always knows what phase the moon is in, regardless of the fact it's daytime or cloudy, and he can "see" anything that is within the moon's light (that's a hard one to explain, but if you're confused lemme know and I'll try to). Another random tidbit about him is he is stronger at night, and especially during a full moon.

His umbrakinesis (shadow manipulation) comes from the the fact that the moon is covered in shadows (y'know, the dark side of the moon). Since he hatched from a meteorite that originated on the moon (I decided since Wukong hatched from a rock, it would be neat for them to be born in similar ways—who knows how celestial monkeys are created?), it makes sense he'd have some sort of control over things pertaining to said moon. That's also why he can float, like one can on the moon due to its low gravity. He can also make small objects around him float if he focuses.

As for his super hearing, I dunno. I just think it's kind of funny that a creature from space, where there is no sound (okay there's technically sound in space but uggh that's a long explanation), has such sensitive hearing.

And then there's the physical aspects of his design. Black fur = the night sky. So I added stars to his fur because I could and they're cute. :3 His red mask is tied to the blood moon, which is when the moon falls within the darkest part of the Earth's shadow during a lunar eclipse, thus causing it to appear with a red tint. Gold eyes = stars. They glow in the dark as well, like stars do. His ears glow white like the moon (though I do like the idea of him having multi-colored ears).

Another random fact about him is that he smells like raspberries, due to the presence of ethyl formate in deep space. Ethyl formate gives raspberries their flavor, thus making him smell like raspberries.

(Also, his blood tastes like raspberries, and has some very interesting attributes, but that will be brought up later in Stargaze. It causes... issues, to say the least. 😬)

And, last but not least... I wanted to interpret the term "celestial monkey" a little more literally. Instead of celestial as in "relating or belonging to Heaven", I chose the definition of celestial as in "positioned in or relating to the sky, or outer space as observed in astronomy." And so, Moon!Macaque was born. :)

Aaannd I hope I covered everything (that I can share at this point in time, anyway). I have been working on a character reference sheet for Moon!Macaque, but it won't be coming out for a bit because my computer keeps trying to overheat and I can only work on digital art a little bit at a time. 😩

In the meantime (and if you made it this far), enjoy this cute little sneak peek of Liu'er in his moon-themed hanfu that Wukong had specially made for him (and Ma, in her adorable pink hanfu—you get a cookie if you recognize it 🙃 (hint: it's in one of my other Stargaze-related drawings on my page)).

Hi there love all your AU's and comics so much was just wondering. So in twisted!Spicynoodles AU with Shadowpeach... could that mean all their death fights are just them flirting? Like in JTTW everyone thought they were fighting each other but that was just them getting together like they've been married since then? All the demons know but all the humans think they're still mortal enemies?

It's just their weird way of flirting, other demons are disgusted and horrifyed at the blatant displays of desire while the mortals are horrifyed at what they see as intense battles.

Red questions out loud when shadowpeach will finally get over their honeymoon phase because it makes other demons who just want to have an actual fight (not courting fights) uncomfortable to approach eaither of them. While mk is confused by what Red means by Honeymoon phase because not even Mk has picked up on these two being married yet xD

[crowboss-whore]

I seem to have a horrid habit of focusing on world building instead of the stories! That said, have some facts abt both stories and their worlds!!

A Seer of Secrets

All four celestial monkeys know of each other’s existence (obvs). But the Long-Armed Gibbon and the Red Buttock Baboon have ultimately decided that dealing w Macaque and Wukong is NOT worth it. Good choice LMAO

Demon courting is kind of weird. Female demons tend to be more aggressive with courting

Speaking of courting, kidnapping is part of it but it’s consensual. Well… nowadays it is. But you don’t realize it because they disguise it as an “I’m surprise visiting you… and now we’re going to my house. Pack a week's worth of clothes.”

Seers and Oracles usually have an item or symbol that connects them to divinity. I wonder what Seer’s item is.

Demon food is USUALLY spicy. For some reason, MK and Mei can withstand it but Wukong lowkey struggles? He doesn’t question it much. They're a weird duo.

There's this huge ass under-market for demons. I'm talking multiple districts kind of big. It's based on the five phases of Chinese philosophy. So you've got Fire, Water, Wood, Gold, and Earth. The District levels go in order as the inter-promoting direction... Or generating direction (I wanted to feel fancy). So it goes Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and then Water. But it's in this big circle that spirals upwards. It's pretty cool because the transition from the Water District to the Wood District is by a massive waterfall that has these big rock platforms that act like an elevator. So, it's kind of tapping into the whole "controls" thing of the uhhhh.... inter-regulating part.

Speaking of the districts, there is ONE place that is considered pure neutral territory. And that would be the Earth section. Simply because Earth is meant to represent " patience, thoughtfulness, practicality, hard work, and stability." This is also where demons can find items that can help with healing 'n their abilities! It's where most markets are set up due to the unspoken truce.

The Wood and Fire district tends to get... really heated. Especially in the Fire District. The space between Wood and Fire is highly populated. So a lot of fighting happens and it's considered far enough from the Earth District. This is where demons like to just... bust out the moves and get into nasty fights. So if you can survive running through the Fire District (where there are a lot of fights over territory) and to Earth, consider yourself lucky. And fucked, because the moment you step out of the Earth District, someone is on your ass.

Water isn't exactly where demons live. It's more of a uh... "If I can't be on the surface for a hot moment or so, I can chill here and not be bothered" kind of place. But it's usually for those real big hot-shot guys. So the Demon Bull Family, for example.

You Were Nothing Like Me

You guys don't understand. I have almost 5,000 words on the doc. That's more than ASOS, sadly.

Everyone's names are based on Constellations because I'm unoriginal. The only people who aren't are the brothers... And Queen Astra, who is Outertale Toriel.

The Void? Yes, it's sentient. It lets Gaster be an invisible guiding hand.

It also oddly likes chocolate.

Monsters know ASL. This is because of a bunch of ASL content being found-- why was it in the dumpster? Who knows! But it's benefited the monster community, and it's gotten the favor of the Deaf Community! Because they're more accepting than others.

I made three official holidays for Monsters and pulled the names out of my fucking ass at 3 AM. Gyftmas, of course, exist. It happens on the Third of every December. Monsters originally guessed based on the crystals in Waterfall. Which would dim during the summer and brighten up during the winter. The brightest day just so happens to be the third Wednesday of December without fail. Why do the crystals dim during the summer? Because monster magic, despite being beneath the ground for literal centuries, accommodated the heat by glowing brighter. Why does glowing brighter help? Because why not. It's like when fireflies come out during May and June. Because. Day of Silence is a pretty somber day. It is a-- uh-- a day dedicated to the Royal Family and their lost children. Most monsters take this day off and mourn the fallen prince and child. It's said that you can hear their souls mourning throughout the underground... Said sound gets louder when the fusion of Outertale happens. Yup. Sunset Feast is a really happy one. It's the day the barrier broke! Because woohoo, freedom. Their version of the 4th of July. So, fun fact about this holiday. Frisk broke the barrier the same fucking day it was created. And it, thus, replaced the old holiday Feast of Darkness. Anyways, Sunset Feast is where monsters gather near a large clearing that's by the entrance of Ebott and-- uh-- watch the sunset! Big feast, too. Really fun and loud! Lots of music 'n stuff.

Who named those holidays, you ask? Not Asgore. That's for fucking sure. Not with his shitty naming skills. It was actually Toriel, who named them. I refuse to believe both of them had shitty naming skills. Toriel was good at naming things because I said so.

Typhas, or known as water sausages, have three different forms. You have Snow Typhas, which are commonly closer to Snowdin, and are pretty sweet! They're actually used to making icing or Nice Cream. You also have Spice Typhas, which are closer to HotLands and are used as a spice! The spiciest part of Spice Typhas are the seeds, kind of like peppers!

Depending on where you're at in the underground, you get unique currency. Gold is the overarching one, but sometimes you gotta make some fun unique ones. The Ruins doesn't have currency minus gold. They like to bargain and trade. Snowdin uses Milky Quartz. Waterfall uses Water Opals. HotLand uses Rubies. The Core uses Quartz. The Castle uses Sapphires. And the Court and Royal Family use diamonds... but not a lot of people see them.

I can go on for actual days about YWNLM's world building. I think about this world too much. I-- I just... I love it. It makes me happy.

#I literally have a section dedicated to how magic works #Also the Void. I love exploring the concept of the Void and made a cool thing called the Void Guardians? #Which are just a bunch of people who have void burns due to exposure (and magic use) of the Void?? It's so fucking cool #The void burns usually come from where the magic concentration is the most #So for example if *I* were to use Void Magic. It'd mostly be around my hands #But if it uhh idk.

okay but like how do you think Ninjago characters would handle being in the scroll/confronting Inky?

(remember, if they're going one-to-one with you, inky can copy your powers) (and also the scroll makes you relive your trauma, so that's fun)

Also also, Inky looks like mk but monkie so if they went one-to-one beat down/therapy session with Lloyd, would they mimic his oni form? 🤔

OKAY WAIT this just reminded me that this kinda happened to wu in the dark island comics!!

so yeah.. i guess thats how hed react

for each of the ninja hm..

lets start with kai ok um tbh i dont think hed be too phased tbh, it could take on the form of morro? who literally stole away his little brother, kalmaar? it was his fault that nya turned into the sea i imagine hed hold a grudge against him.. and aspheera who took away his powers, overall i think he could probablyyy handle it emotionally??

cole! cole uh yeah hes cole?? only trauma i really think he would have is from sensei yang who turned him into a ghost (yeah remember that arc??) i imagine thatd be pretty traumatizing tbh, i dont really know how hed handle it because frankly i dont know coles character that well but i think he could also handle it probably

zane! vex! overlord! nadakhan? yeah! oh my god zane and ice emperor 😭 hes not that person guys!!!! but hed feel INSANELY guilty i honestly dont know if he could take it just because his motto is to protect others thats his whole thing and he did the complete opposite omg it gets me it gets me 😭😭😭😭 anyway yeah thatd probably break zanes resolve i feel

jay! jay has a lot of trauma actually thats not brought up that often.. firm believer that he has abandonment issues. nadakhan being the worst of them, but probably unagami as well? kalmaar also took nya away so yay fun times guys. honestly, i think seeing nadakhan again.. hed probably lose it he quite literally killed all his friends in front of him and nya died in his arms oh my god.. hed break i feel

nya!?! nya's strong but also nadakhan sighh wojira and kalmaar too, id think nadakhan would also tip her over the edge like idkkkk really depends on what you feel im not that sure how nya would react

ok and finally lloyd.. i think this would be his 13th reason honestly.. itd send him over the brink, the point of no return i think hed turn full joker at this point like holy crap theres like 10 different people inky would transform into like no way this poor kid 😭 if this happened to him i think we'd have to add an extra L to his name its too much 😭 and if it took on oni lloyds form i think thats just a cherry on top of the trauma cake

Before I start the next stage of base-building, I need to plan.

No base screenshots this time. Just diagrams and rambling and ratios. But this post forces me to get my thoughts in order and turns them into something I can consult later, and hopefully someone else will find these ideas useful.

This chart, courtesy of Kirk McDonald's Factorio Calculator, shows most of the steps and ratios needed to get about a hundred SPM. That's what a single rocket silo with three productivity modules mark 3 can achieve, so it's a decent benchmark to aim for. (Mining, smelting, oil-cracking, and wire-assembling are over to the left of this part of the graph. But they're less important.

The lines are a mess, but the numbers are clear, especially if I switch back to the list. This requires something like 18 yellow belts of iron and copper, which is absurd. If I switch to red belts, we get a slightly less absurd nine belts of each (plus 3.6 of green circuits, 1.9 of plastic, and basically everything else <1).

Most of the copper and about a third of the iron are in green circuits. Nearly half of the iron goes into steel. Remove that, and I only need 1.2 belts of iron and 3.7 of copper, about half of which goes into low-density structure.

None of this accounts for non-science production, of course (e.g. automating those assembling machine 3's). But even so, that's a lot less resources than I was anticipating. I considered leaving a spot for trains to add more resources to the bus, but it looks like that's basically unnecessary—especially if I ship in green circuits and steel from elsewhere.

I'm still gonna do it, though.

Next, a diagram I made myself.

At the top are things I intend to put on the main bus. Maybe not coal and batteries, and stone bricks are only required for three things (furnaces for purple science, walls for gray, and miscellaneous furnaces/oil refineries) so they'll fall off the bus quickly enough, but the important thing is that they're excluded from the rest of the diagram.

Automation, logistic, and military science are simple enough. Automation is just bus ingredients, while logistic and military science are basic things, half of which I want to mass-produce anyway. At this stage of the bus, I can also build some basic factory stuff, like mining drills and assemblers Mk 2 and more red belts.

This probably sounds weird, but I think it makes sense to put production science next. (Red chips need to go somewhere earlier, but that's fine.) Its three products are disconnected from things made elsewhere, and it lets me get stone bricks off the bus early. Actually, I might just set up that stone unloading station here, to feed rails to purple science and bricks to wall/electric furnace/miscellaneous factory stuff production.

And chemical science is directly linked to utility science, because both use engines. Ideally I'd like one line of engine assemblers that gets split 2:1 between blue science and electric engines, with a few engines of each type getting stashed for making flame turrets and rocket silos and stuff.

Anyways, the rest of chemical science is straightforward, and utility science isn't much harder. The tricky bit will be setting up a circuit system that lets me set how many logistics and construction bots I want in the robot network, which is something I'll definitely do just to the side of the bus.

And then space science. But that's quite a way off.

All that in mind, let's get some figures.

We'll need almost four red belts of green chips, most of which are going into red and blue chip production. This will take something like four belts of iron and six of copper. Yeah, I should just make green chips off-site.

Green chips aside, phase 1 science requires less than a belt of copper and iron, plus coal for the grenades and stone bricks for the walls.

Phase 2 science requires those bricks, a couple belts of iron, half a belt of copper, and plastic. Also advanced circuits.

Phase 3 science requires like half a belt of copper and iron, plus plastic and sulfur.

Phase 4 requires a full belt of iron, a belt and a half of copper, and a bunch of miscellaneous stuff like batteries and plastic and oil.

Phase 5 (Space) requires most of a belt of iron, almost two belts of copper, two belts of green chips, a belt of plastic, and a bunch of other random stuff.

To keep this nice and expandable, I'd say that four belts each of iron and copper with refill stops between phases should be good. Excessive for one rocket, but when I want to run five rocket silos for infinite research I'll thank me.

Likewise, three belts of green chips (which get replaced by red and blue down the bus) sounds good. A belt of steel, one of gears, one or two belts of plastic, maybe a battery belt.

While I'm here, I'll throw together some thoughts about where to produce various factory buildings.

Electric miners, pumpjacks, red belts, chemical plants, power poles, inserters, and assembler 2's can all go in phase 1.

Furnaces and oil refineries need to go with the other stone brick stuff, at the phase 1/2 boundary.

Substations, roboports, and logistics chests can go in phase 2, after the red chips.

Blue belts can go in phase 3, alongside electric engines. They both need lubricant. Getting the red belts to the blue belts to lubricate them is gonna be interesting. Is that a low-volume train job or a long-distance bot job? Or an awkward belt job? Or maybe Renai Transportation has some silly solution?

Not much new in phase 4.

Assembler 3's share speed modules 1 with RCUs, so it makes sense to build them together. Shipping assembler 2's from one end of the bus to the other is like the belt thing, but more.

Explosives need coal, which if it's not on the bus are only going to grenades. But they also need sulfur from blue science. Hm.

Nuclear reactor stuff and rocket silos are best handled in temporary production setups. Or maybe even handcrafted.

Oh yeah, labs need to go somewhere too.

Idk why I've quietly lurked on your blog, only liking. I am sorry for the spam reblog I'm about to do rn as well because let me tell you-

I never really had a Mortal Kombat phase, even as a teen I barely grazed it. I was kinda in the lore of it but not so much the actual fandom part not like the group of fans per say.

The new game has recently picked up my interest in it once again and I'm remembering names again, I'm rambling jesus christ-

You're canons, scenarios, stories overall as a whole has bought me in full swing of MK and like thank you? I'm like, emerged (I've got a bit more learning to do on it u could say) now more and I'm more confident and comfy.

But anyways, that's not the ONLY thing I wanted to say but you're stories about them? The characters???

What can be said? They're amazing. The format, the characterization overall. I've just been eating up everything you write. And honestly? Amazing fucking writing. Just perfect. U eat and leave no crumbs behind with every post about it. I also be eating up this sort of format you've placed onto your stories. It's ugh...it leaves me always wanting more.

i dont even know what to say except thank you! i've been struggling with writing recently, not really enjoying the work i put out but to hear such high praise is so incredibly humbling and touching. i'm happiest about you starting to learn more about MK! i've loved the games for well over 10 years now and love the direction MK1 took!!

If I right about it being able to show up in any phase besides a new moon that would explain why Kaito’s more “careless “ than the organization because he doesn’t care about that. Though I have a sinking suspicion not only has Pandora been found and used but the organization is aware of this and that’s why they’ve never shown up in a Detective Conan story.

The thing is he probably should care about that, because to our knowledge his only source of info about Pandora is what he overheard those bad guys say. Which again it's entirely possible they're working with faulty information, or that Kaito was able to find info they didn't say through research..... however, we don't know that. So we have to assume the info they had is correct until we're shown evidence to the contrary.

So we know; 1. Pandora is currently hidden in a larger gem. 2. Pandora will shine red if held up to a full moon (Or possibly just moonlight depending on translation.) 3. Pandora is said to shed 'tears of immortality' if held under the Volley comet. (though I suppose it's worth noting that in the 1412 version of the anime they do omit mentioning the comet and just mention the full moon).

But anyways, onto the theory that Pandora could have already been found-

There are a few ways that could go down, but if it's found by Kaito's organization then that wouldn't be the end of it. They would still want to dispose of Kid because he would pose a threat to their continued possession of the gem, especially given that he declared in front of them that he wanted to find and destroy it. That said them finding it would result in there being at least one immortal person running around depending on how the gem actually works (Does it shed multiple tears at once? How are these tears used? Is it proper immortality or does it just extend the lifespan? How often does this comet come around for some reason my mind is saying 1000 years but I don't remember where I got that number?) and while that's not likely to actually be a tangible problem in a story that happens in a compressed timeline it could still potentially have consequences.

Meanwhile if Kaito found it then that could be interesting, because if that were the case then the fact that he's still holding gems up to the moon speaks volumes. Because it means that he hasn't been able to destroy the gem, and therefore is pretending that he hasn't found it yet. (Either that or sheer force of habit.) Which would mean that the organization is still out there and still after him and the gem.

Of course the reason that we can't have the MK organization show up in DC canonically (they have shown up in an OVA, though admittedly it was an MK chapter that Conan was shoehorned into) is mostly for clean storytelling reasons. In DC there can't be any significant progress made to the MK storyline, and in MK there can't be significant progress for the DC storyline. Because that would cause trouble for people that only read one of the two stories. And even if we ignore that if the MK organization were to show up in DC then that would clue Conan in to what Kaito is trying to achieve, and I doubt that Conan would be able to just leave that alone even though he already has so much on his plate.

#dcmk #asks #I know that you can have two manga that are interconnected to the point that you can't read just one #I read xxxHolic and Tsubasa Chronicle... I get the appeal #but like in this case it'd be messy #like.... if the MK org shows up in DC then it'll probably be resolved there #which would deprive MK of that resolution #or at best cheapen it #of course this also makes my favourite crack theory impossible.... #so..... *sigh*

If all versions of Sun Luzhen love apples and hates peaches, what about the other Wukongverse kids? Any favourites? It'll be funny the peach loving Wukongs have half of their kids not liking peaches. The betrayal of genetics.

At least Heaven's Peach Gardens are safe from them... Or are they...?

Referencing this post about Luzhen loving apples and hating peaches.

LMK Xiaotian/MK has canonically expressed his love for stonefruit, so he probably loves peaches. I've seen hcs that he absolute fave though is apricots ("Not too big, not too mushy, just the right amount of cronch!"). This gets his Au counterpart the nickname Apricot.

Mei would love any fruit thats brightly coloured - kiwis being her fav for flavor alone, but dragonfruit is a close second.

Bai He is in the kid phase of "fruit is gross", but Macaque has managed to get her to enjoy frozen blueberries and strawberries.

The Eclipse Twins devour any fruit offered to them like little piranhas, but especially melons. Give them a red watermelon, and the end result looks like a crime scene.

Yuebei is a peach fiend like her baba. No stonefruit left unturned. Her twin brothers Jidu and Luohuo are a little different since they loudly prefer plums and mangos like Macaque.

Hib!Liuer is a peach-fiend like his adoptive dad/mentor. Fa Ming probably convinced the little monk to eat his fruits by telling him how much the Monkey King loved peaches.

Hib!MK/Xiaoyun has a predicament... he does like peaches and other stonefruit - but his fave fruit is pomegranate, a fruit that requires a lot of dexterity to enjoy. Dasheng only found out Xiaoyun had this issue when he caught the one-armed kiddo trying to peel a pomergranate with his feet. Pre-peeled pomegranate fruit/seeds are aa god-send for him.

Shui Lian (the white vixen in the HiB verse) loves most berries and tree fruits, but her favorite is cider apples (like irl foxes) which confuses anyone who eats one and gets a mouthful of super-sour rotten-tasting apple. More for her then :3

In the Reborn verse; Qi Energy/"Fruitie" is a little fruit glutton. As shown in the film; the little nature spirit noms on what appears to be breadfruit, longans, and apples while in the village market. He also eats to replenish his powers. In the reborn au; as Xiao Qi he's even worse. Ever since he's been introduced to stonefruit, he ravages peaches like they're going out of style. The parents still joke that he's a fruit cannibal.

The two wolf siblings (Zhu Yu and Ku Ai) that Reborn!SWK & LEM picks up are used to forest fruits like berries and the rare crabapple. Their favorites are blueberries, which they will literally jump into bushes for. They don't see what the big deal is with peaches.

And ofc you got the 5 Stone-Fruit Monkeys, who are all named for said fruits. More cases of "fruitie cannibalism" the pilgrims joke; as the five babies have declared the fruit they were named for to be "their fruit". Fights will break out if you attempt to feed anyone other than Xiaotao/Little Peach a peach. They all agree that dates are a neutrally-enjoyable fruit however.

Netflix!MK/Xiaoshi loves peaches, but Netflix!SWK actually doesn't care for them that much - bad experience with the poisoned one.

The twin pebbles love cherries, and again, crime scene occurs when left alone with a basket of them. They also love raw tomatoes.

The Heavenly Orchards may breathe a sigh of relief for now... until the different MKs get into the celestial realms and start getting hungry. Xiao Qi and Yuebei probably give a few immortals pstd flashbacks with their snack runs.

Marvel said "fuck complex characters because we need wymen #gurlpower". They already did it with Loki, Clint, Thor, Bruce and Strange.

Uh... okay, let's take a step back here for a sec.

We all know the issues with Sylvie so I won't repeat them here, but I disagree with the other characters you mention (I can't talk about She-Hulk because I haven't seen the series).

Clint is complex in his series, L&T is just bad for everyone involved and MoM is hardly a movie for girl power when Wanda is treated like garbage and she has her entire character development destroyed for no reason.

Phase 4 just happened to be so damn bad with characterization. The fact that you see this as "girl power" is proof of the fact that they have been shielding all kinds of criticism with "people hate representation!". They put the women in the spotlight because they know the reactions will be 1) fans who now defend every movie and series because they have been told it's representation, 2) sexist/racist/etc fans who voice their hate, giving ammo to the first group - now they feed into each other and countless articles are written about it. It's a marketing strategy, that's all it is.

The women in WandaVision are great (so are Vision, Hayward, Woo), Layla in Moon Knight is fantastic (so are Marc, Steven, Harrow), every single woman in Wakanda Forever is magnificent (so are Namor and M'Baku)... sure, there's Sylvie in the Loki series (and probably others but I stopped watching the D+ shows after MK) but don't let them fool you: the lack of quality in Phase 4 is due to several reasons ranging from lack of continuity, inexperienced writers/directors who won't watch previous works, too much interference from the execs in the studio, a massive lack of creativity, Feige taking the fans for granted, etc.

It's all very hit-and-miss these days with the MCU, but it's not due to them giving the spotlight to women by tearing the men down. They're failing at characterization as a whole, with a few gems hidden here and there.

ok i know you don't talk abot him but you were a mk blog before so can you do some vision hcs? i love him so much but no one really talks about him unless its related to wanda

OMG ANON DO I FEEL YOU RN

Vision is my bestie, my sibling, my favourite child, he's just amazing. I love every iteration of him that I've seen. I really do wish there were more fics focused on him and not on his relationship with Wanda. Don't get me wrong, it's interesting! But it's usually about Wanda's side or Wanda centric and while I do like her, I want more Vision

Vision sometimes disguises himself as a normal human being and goes out just to experience humanity.

There is an old couple out there somewhere that absolutely adores him and tries to stuff him with food cause he's "too skinny"

They're just even more driven about it when he says he can't eat. They just take it as him being shy.

Vision knowing things in theory but not in practice. Like he knows how to properly whisk and separate yolks from egg whites but he sucks at baking.

He sometimes spends time talking to Dum-E and U cause he just needs some robot time.

He has frightened every Avenger at least once when he phases through a wall.

Aside from Tony, Bruce and Wanda, he has also bonded with T'Challa. He finds him very insightful when it comes to his questions regarding emotions and humanity.

Cue Vision phasing into the Wakandan throne room just to ask T'Challa what the purpose of Lego is regarding adults.

He has a collection of snow globes.

There is definitely a Vision fanclub and he's definitely touched when he finds out.

His favourite genre is comedy. He enjoys seeing what other people find funny.

I see him especially like slapstick for some reason.

Little spoon vibes.

Tony asks him to float to reach every item on a high shelf.

Once he understands the whole prank concept, he tricks everyone into thinking that all technology has sentience.

Not Bucky being uncomfortable opening the microwave cause Vision said it's the equivalent of ripping it open and sowing it shut.
