So, this parallel, right.

That parallel and the 4x11 shadowpeach fight as a whole:

Macaque: "No that's YOU! You're the one always running off! Looking for more power, more sources of immortality—you're the one who wouldn't quit while were were ahead! Not the great sage, he's got to drag EVERYONE else into his mess!" Sun Wukong: "You're not in this mess, you're still free! Everything I did was for us!" Macaque: "You did it for yourself! You've become like this, obsessive demon! I told you going against the Jade Emperor was a bad idea, but no, Wukong doesn't listen to anyone! He just does whatever he wants! You put yourself here, not me."

(4x11 A Lifetime of Mistakes)

-

A large part of Wukong's motivation to keep getting more power was the freedom of it—the more power you have the easier it is to do whatever you want. It's easier to ignore everyone else and focus solely on yourself. It's also easier to ensure yourself and your loved one's are protected and have the ability to do what they want.

So, a punishment where the great Monkey King is imprisoned and trapped for hundreds of years? It's effective and tragic and fitting. Wukong wanted to have the freedom to protect the people he cared about, and in trying to reach for the power to do that, he completely had his freedom removed. He went from the mountain, to then the circlet, and then all of a sudden he had morals and was bound to those.

And then I think about his end of s3 choice to go face the Lady Bone Demon alone. Once again Wukong was trying to protect his loved ones (not to mention the whole reason he went after the Samadhi fire to begin with was to have the power, the freedom to stop LBD (which in itself is another case of SWK believing he needed to be stronger for such freedom)), but he also wanted to make sure MK and himself both had agency. He didn't want MK to have to fight LBD, and he didn't want LBD to end the world.

This is exactly the sentiment he tells Macaque in the 4x11 flashback:

Sun Wukong: "It's so we don't have to worry about anything or anyone ever again! Just living a lazy life, sitting in the sun, eatin' fruit, and doing whatever we want!"

But where does it all lead him?

To possession, imprisonment. Once again Wukong no longer had the freedom to do what he wanted (which is to protect the people he cares about). Once again in his attempts to help his loved one's, he only hurt them.

This can be applied to his relationship with Macaque, to MK in s2, hell, even Wukong trying to get the map in the first place left him powerless, which then led to him and the gang being imprisoned in 3x02. It's a familiar pattern, one we see with antagonist and protagonist alike.

MK in s2 trained to become more powerful, which in the end only strengthened LBD and forced him and his friends on the run. Mei in 3x12 protects MK by letting herself get captured and placed into LBD's crystal. Mei in 4x05 goes to protect MK, breaking her sword and leaving her vulnerable to being captured by Kui Mulang ("How am I supposed to protect everyone without my sword?"). DBK reached for more power and then became possessed by LBD, hurting his wife and son. Azure reached for the Jade Emperor's power and bound himself to that role, jeopardizing Peng and Yellowtusk in the process.

It's a cycle of reaching for power, endangering others, and then being imprisoned.

So anyways, here's why MK is going to lose control (his agency) next season and hurt his friends with his own- *get's shot*

#*cough cough* shut up this isn't similar to Callum and Viren from tdp at all. #Ignore everything I said about the reach for power to have freedom and that leading to consequences. Shhhhhhh #anyways GOSH HMMM THE CHARACTER ARCS YAY #I LOVE WHEN THEMATICALLY RELEVANT THINGS HAPPEN TO CHARACTERS #Like. It's not just ''Wukong got possessed'' it's how Wukong getting possessed plays into his character and the show as a whole #Which is why lmk is so good #A league above the rest #Ignore that this is also the exact same thing that happens to Callum with possession. Shhhhh. #But y'all get my point #So anyways in reaching for power and having the agency to protect those you care about #And continuing Mei and SWK parallels #I think it would be neat if Mei accepted the Samadhi fire again to protect her friends for whatever reason #It'd also be neat if she did it specifically to fight MK/get him back #Like teehee that would be so cool #Am I saying MK next season might very well parallel possessed Wukong? yes that's exactly what I'm saying. #lmk SWK #lmk #lego monkie kid #lmk analysis #you know what executive decision tag #hero mei warrior mk

I'm working on finding a dps that works for me. Had my tank and other dps tell me to "uninstall the game" because I had 1.6k damage which made me 'worthless' apparently. Even went as far as to say "gg to everyone except mei"

Bro. It's unranked. I'm practicing my worst role. Why are you such a dick?

Then, in my next round, I had wholesome interactions with a kiri and an echo as sombra, so all is well. But god. I knew it was gonna be a bad round when I was backfill and no one said hello.

#ill admit 1.6k is pretty low for me but I was also being shut down by doomfist. so #however I am really good at holding a team fight as mei. ive been in fights so long that I got my ult twice and one time even 3 times #honestly the numbers mean fuck all if theres no teamwork. you can have 10k damage 30 kills and still lose because you are not coordinating #idk why but i recognized the comment was triggering my anxiety but i was able to stop it by focusing on something else #baph bleats #gamer goat girl cred #baph's bad at games #overwatch #baph shut up

Red Son: Once we take down that spider menace, my reputation will soar! And I'll be that much closer to the legend I'm destined to become. Mei: Red Boy, are you having that fantasy where your family loves and respects you and you're also super buff? Red Son, in a hushed voice: I told you that in confidence. Mei: It's cute. Who cares?

@fallesto - continued from here.

It really was her own damn fault he was here so bright and early. At any point she could have tried to kill him but instead there was a usefulness he provided. Like most humans she was greedy and well, he wasn't doing anything with the money that fell out of the pockets of his victims like a turned over piggy bank. Or their bank accounts, for that matter.

Mahito pouted at Mei Mei's words, taking a moment to pause and sniff himself a few times. What was the problem? He smelled like the sewer - it was all purified water down there. Maybe some wet stone and dirt clung to him, sure, but it wasn't that offensive. He had lined up a nice little joke for her to wake up to and she hit him with an insult. Such a rude sorcerer.

The curse groaned silently from where he was perched on the other side of the bed, crouched and looming over her. Shoes on still, even, just to irritate her. But at the comment to use the shower he perked up. In the next moment Mahito was stripped free of his clothes, all of which conveniently scattered across her form on the bed as he ran naked into the bathroom with a laugh. One that echoed loudly because he was right - the bathroom was fancy and expensive, which meant a large bath. The next best thing when he couldn't make it to the hot spring Jogo liked to frequent.

Good luck trying to sleep when he was loudly splashing about in the oversized tub that was no doubt going to be filled to the brim.

#fallesto #rps #mei mei: shut up and go away #mahito: *proceeds to be loud in the next room instead like a good (bad) little curse*

> opens the official TDP discord

> immediately sees people mocking how M. Night corrected Bryke's mispronunciation of Asian names in the live-action ATLA movie

> closes official TDP discord

#there was a shitton wrong with that movie but fixing Bryke's fucking weeb ass mispronuciations was NOT one of them #''wow Bryke put SO much research into making bending based on martial arts!!!111!'' #and yet they can't pronounce names like Sokka or Mai correctly #even tho Mai is ONE. FUCKING. SYLLABLE. #IT'S ONE SYLLABLE. AND SAID LIKE A WORD IN ENGLISH. AND THEY STILL FUCKED IT UP #AND IF THEY WANTED HER TO HAVE A NAME THAT SOUNDED LIKE ''May'' THE NAME MEI IS RIGHT FUCKING THERE #BUT THEY ONLY CARED ABOUT THE ANIME AESTHETIC LIKE THE FUCKING WHITE BOY WEEBS THEY ARE #AND NOT ABOUT THE ACTUAL FUCMING CULTURE #so while the white washing and racist implications that came with it in live action ATLA movie were terrible #(i.e. the water tribe sibs should NOT have been white and the Fire Nation peeps should NOT have been dark skinned) #M Night being like ''u know what let's bother to actually pronounce names correctly'' #was not the fucking problem with that adaptation #signed - someone who wishes TDP fans would shut up forever about ATLA for the love of fucking god
