Journey to the West : Demons strikes back was on TV last time . And I was completely hooked with this duo. Movie was kinda shippy lmfao😭Sooo here's SunTang 🍑🐒🍵📜They are my new hyperfixation and I can't shut up about them for 3 days straight😭Chow had no right to make Wukong that hot and angsty😂😂
17JTTW SunTang is now my fave adaptation. Also gave Wukong a few tweaks in his design. I wanted for him to keep a bit of primate features on his human disguise. Because I think his magic could only do so much to hide his natural features.
Or he barely bothers in completing a few insignificant human traits when shifting. Like the shape of his teeth, which can easily be hidden or retracting his nails.
He has this otherworldy look in his human form ,sharp and uncanny features. And when he smiles, it makes him look elvish/impish with those snaggly teeth. Like it will still make you do a double take because there is definitely something off.
And I also wanted to make his ears slightly bigger, stick out and pointy.
In the beginning of JTTW...
Guan Yin: I just have one rule here. No kissing the Monkey.
Tripitaka: I don't think that's going to be a problem
Guan Yin: You haven't seen him, so don't say that yet
Sun Wukong: *feral noises*
Tripitaka:😳 Wow...
Reader: WHY’D YOU GO AGAIN?! NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR IT!
YOUR FLIRTS ARE WEAK AND YOUR GAME SUCKS
LOOK AT YOU STANDING THERE WANTING A REPLY
HERE IT COMES, PIG! HERE’S MY BATTLE CRY!
YOU’RE A SHITTY GUY! YOUR’RE A SHITTY GUY!
I HATE YOU SO MUCH!
Reader has vanished the perverted foe
Meanwhile with the other pilgrims:
Sun Wukong: Gonna hand it to her, girly gots some fire.
Tang Sanzang/Tripitaka: Amituofo. Shan zai. Shan zai. *Praying for Pigsy’s well being*
Sha Wujing/Sandy: I hope Big Sister and Second Brother will get along.
Wukong’s design and Isekai to the West were created by @skittlescripts I still up till 2 am to finish this part and I’m glad I did. You maybe familiar with the lyric above if you’ve seen Aggrestuko. Do she go too far with her rage? Eh, I sleep on it till then.
Also,
AHVHVCHEVJBCJDBCJDBCJEBCJDNCKNDCKENCKNDCK, THE FRICKIN MONKEY KING 👀👀👀👀
(It was originally gonna extend on the first part but it was kinda glitchy for some reason, so it’s gonna be its own post. Hope you like)
Heyo, I have a bit of a prompt for ya. So I’ve seen the “Demon that wants to abduct and forcibly marry Reader,” post(s) and raise a “The local regent/king finds Reader attractive (in a way that he views her almost like a novelty than as a whole person) and offers her a position as a concubine/ ‘palace lady.’” This is a different kind of scenario because straight up murdering the king of the area is not exactly the option that’d let the journey continue smoothly and refusal could also be construed as an offense to the king, but Reader does not want to and needs to continue with them on the journey. All of the other disciples know this, and maybe can tell she’s uncomfortable (even if it’s before Wukong has really fallen for Reader, she is still someone he would consider to be his friend at the very least). How are they going to get out of this one? (Slightly inspired by the time Tripitaka was propositioned in the Kingdom of Women by the Empress.)
Ps: sorry if this is dumb, regardless, I hope you have a good day - 🌺 anon
King: So what do you say, girl? Will you become my concubine? I see no possible reason for you to say no! I can give you all you could ever ask for in exchange for serving my every whim! That seems like a wonderful deal for a woman like you that clearly comes from nothing.
Reader:
Wukong:
Sandy:
Pigsy:
Ao Lie:
Reader: Wha-What?
Tripitaka: N-Now wait just a minute, your Majesty. You c-can't simply expect her to drop everything and stay here-
King: Well of course I can! I am the king of these lands! In fact! I insist upon it! Woman, you shall stay here and serve your new king immediately as soon as you are cleaned.
Reader: *feeling a panic attack approaching as the room starts to spin*
Wukong: *holding back the urge to commit violent murder*
Sandy: *rethinking this whole "pacifism" thing*
Pigsy: *looking disgusted at the king*
Ao Lie: *wondering if anyone would notice if he turned back into a dragon and ate the king*
Tripitaka: *trying so hard to think of a peaceful solution while also trying not to cry over how much the king is objectifying Reader* Y-You can't just h-have her! She's a necessary part of our pilgrimage!
King: By the Heavens! She's just one woman how valuable could she be!? After all, she is just your maidservant is she not!?
Tripitaka: *remembering that is the disguise they came up with for her* Yes, b-but! Why must you have her, great King!?
King: Because I have never seen a woman like her before! She is a beautiful foreign flower that I simply must have for myself! Here! I shall be merciful and send you off with another servant!
King: *gestures to his guards to find a servant*
Wukong: *reaches toward his ear for his staff*
Sandy: *reaches for his spade*
Pigsy: *reaches for his rake*
Ao Lie: *gets ready to turn into a dragon*
Tripitaka: *frozen in shock*
Reader: *sees the carnage about to begin*
Reader: I HAVE A DISEASE!
Everyone: *stops and turns to face her* HUH?!
Reader: I... have a disease.
King: *narrows eyes in suspension* And what is the name of this disease?
Reader: *sweats nervously as all knowledge of every disease she knows of decides to take a vacation from her brain at the one moment she needs it most*
Tbh if these two got married I think their dynamic to be similar to Jake and Rainicorn
Tang thought it was just their usual dates, Wukong already got his heart all set
Listen but what if Wukong let Tripitaka keep the baby and they end up raising it as their own?? I know people make a joke of it but come on, why shippers aint using this trope??
Sanzang: I love you so much, you evil little miscreant!<3
Wukong: Aw, you're the fire of my heart, you stupid idiot!<3
Wujing: I am so jealous of that -_-
Bajie: I know right? Need me a freak like that >:)
I’m still working on the next chapter for my current fic but I also thought I’d drop this little piece of writing since that post from @goshilovemesomemonsters got me thinking abt it again. It’s not related to the post tho, this is way before Macaque gets introduced
Btw this is from an unpublished jttw x reader, but I definitely wanna share more of it eventually
Dove Masterlist:
The hunter’s eyes narrow in suspicion at Sun Wukong’s words. It was obvious he held no trust in what he was saying. You couldn’t really blame him. If you weren’t with the bodhisattva when she recruited him, you wouldn’t believe him either.
Still, you were curious to see how this would play out. Now wasn’t the time to reveal yourself, so even if you wanted to vouch for the monkey demon, you wouldn’t. The shock of the little dove on Tripitaka’s shoulder being human would most likely shock them more than having the Great Sage as a disciple—
…Why is he staring?
Sun Wukong seems to have his sight fixed on you, confusion evident in his eyes. You could remember that stare as clearly as the day you met him in the palace. His eyes remained that same blood red, his irises a vibrant gold that hold a diamond gleam to them, accentuating his sharp stare.
He continues to eye you from his prison, his gaze narrowing. If you were in your true form, a frown would be set over your features. Why is he looking at you like that? He doesn’t know who you are… or does he? How could he see through your transformation?
Suddenly, his eyes widen, as though a torch has caught fire in his dimly-lit mind. "It's you! Wha— What are you doing?" His laugh is loud and hearty, confusing the others surrounding him.
The monk looks past your perched self on his shoulder and behind himself, then back to the Great Sage. "I thought you knew... you just said you were meant to be one of my disciples."
"Not you, the dove on your shoulder!" He points to you, the huntsman and his sons sharing looks of bewilderment with one another as they glance at your unsuspecting form. "It's you, isn't it? The vulgar maiden from the Jade Palace!"
This damn monkey! Why does he have to be like this? It’s like he makes it his mission to be the bane of your existence. With a groan, you take flight into the air, revealing your true form and landing on the ground. The collective gasp of your current travelling companions would have made you smile on any other occasion. Unfortunately, being exposed in such a way only made you grumble in annoyance.
His comments made your cheeks flush, a mix of anger and embarrassment rushing to your face. "You impudent ape! How dare you call me vulgar."
The monkey only laughs, seemingly pleased with his powers of deduction. "I knew it! I'd recognize that soothing presence anywhere. Nobody can hide from Old Monkey King." He gloats, making you want to roll your eyes. What an obnoxious egotistical—
"You're a woman?" The confusion in the Great Monk’s voice helps to remind you that you have an audience. That’s right, they thought you were an innocent dove this whole time. It’s not like you didn’t suspect this might happen sooner or later, but yelling at this demon? What were you thinking?
You quickly introduce yourself to the monk and tell him your name. “I am a faithful disciple to the bodhisattva, Guan Yin.” You begin to explain yourself quickly. “I apologize for only now revealing myself. The merciful goddess has tasked me in aiding your journey to the west with your disciples by lending you my gifts.”
The Tripitaka Monk frowns as he digests your words before his eyes widen in realization. “After I escaped those demons… it was you, wasn’t it? I felt as though I would lose my mind until you sat on my shoulder.”
You couldn’t help but smile as the true events of that incident became clear to him. “Yes, I possess the ability to soothe the mind, a gift granted to me by my teacher herself. I have been watching over you since the day you embarked on your journey.” As your eyes trail over to the imprisoned demon by your side, your kind smile quickly became sour. “Originally, it was my intent to observe your pilgrimage in silence.”
At the monkey’s snicker, your brow quickly twitched.
“However, I can confirm that there is no need for suspicion. For reasons unbeknownst to me, Guan Yin has called upon this demon to be your disciple.” You turn away quickly from the simian, instead providing his master with your upmost attention.
That, however, wasn’t enough to stop Sun Wukong from jutting into the conversation with an offended scoff. “Unbeknownst? I know exactly why she chose me, I’m the Handsome Monkey King! Nobody will ever come close to my master with me around!”
“Yes. I’m sure.” You grit your teeth in blatant annoyance as you attempt to retain your smile. No matter how much he got on your nerves, you had to be on your best behaviour.
But if he sounds this arrogant under a mountain, how much worse will he be once he’s free?
