Journey to the West Chapter 30

In this chapter of Journey to the West with @journeythroughjourneytothewest we finally get to see the dragon horse shine! For what might be the first and last time. So let's get into it shall we?

So we start this chapter with checking in on Sandy and seeing how he's fairing with the whole 'being captured' thing. Luckily he's not currently being killed or beaten yet so that's something at least. Instead the demon is to busy pondering what they are doing back here after he already let Tripitaka go. The Demon concludes that his wife must have sent a letter with Tripitaka to the kingdom, so he goes to violently confront her about it.

So the demon starts yelling at the princess that she's ungrateful for all he does for her since she wants to go home and such. And the Princess is terrified by this behavior and denies sending any letter. And the Demon tells her he has a witness to it, and so they go to ask Sandy about it. Thankfully Sandy, unlike Pigsy does have two brain cells to rub together, so when he see's the monster dragging his wife out by the hair in a horrifying display of domestic violence and threatening her with a blade, he decides to cover for the girl.

So when the monster asks Sandy if the Princess sent a letter back home, Sandy lies and says that while they were here Tripitaka just happened to see her and remembered her. So when they made it to the Princesses kingdom Tripitaka was able to recognize her portrait and tell the king about it, so that's why they are here. A letter had nothing to do about it.

Luckily the demon immediately believes him, and starts acting all sweet to his wife again. And the wife instantly believes him! Learn to watch for red flags kids. Anyways but at least the princess uses this opportunity to have Sandy untied and just locked up instead so that's something I guess. Unfortunately the Demon decides that he should pay his father in law a little visit after all, which the princess is of course strongly against on account of her husband being a terrifying demon and all. However with a little shapeshifting magic, that excuse goes right out the window as the demon transforms into a perfectly handsome human man. So after his wife warns him not to become so drunk he reveals his true appearance, the demon flies off.

So the Demon arrives at the palace and introduces himself as the king's third Son in Law. The King's minister's figure that this must be the demon that kidnapped the princess but... they can't really keep him out anyways, so might as well invite him in anyways and spare everyone the hassle. Unfortunately once they invite him in, pretty much everyone in the place is fooled by his human disguise. So the King questions the demon on who he is and where he comes from, and also why he married his daughter without permission.

The demon of course starts spinning a tale about how he found the princess getting attacked by a tiger so he swooped in and saved her. And since she never told him that she was a princess, he married her and they've been living together for thirteen years. He says that he was going to kill the tiger, but his wife convinced him to spare it. However that tiger evidently became a spirit through self cultivation, and killed the Tang Monk Pilgrimage and stole their travel documents. And gasp! Look the tiger demon is right there disguised as a monk! And with that the Demon wraps Tripitaka in the illusion of a tiger.

So the palace guards immediately go in for that attack and try and kill Tripitaka, but luckily even with Sandy and Pigsy down for the count, he still has all those celestial gods on his side, so they protect him. Also man, I hope those gods have been getting paid overtime since Sun Wukong left, they seem to be doing a lot more work now that he's gone then they had to do previously. Anyways, since killing Tripitaka isn't working, they decide to just lock him up instead.

With the 'Tiger Demon' dealt with for the time being the King throws a banquet to thank his new son in law. After the party winds down and everyone retires for the night, the Demon does exactly what his wife tells him to do, and drinks some alcohol and reverts to his true form. He then proceeds to eat one of the serving girls while the rest run away to hide.

Meanwhile the rumor that the Tang Monk is actually a monster has spread far enough to even reach the ears of a horse. So the dragon horse hears about how Tripitaka has been imprisoned, but all of Tripitaka's usual rescuers are gone. And so for the very first time this entire journey- the horse decides to try and do something useful to save Tripitaka. Shocking I know. So the horse reverts to his true form a dragon, and takes to the skies to scope the place out.

So the Dragon Prince manages to find the demon, who is currently drinking wine and still eating that attendant he killed earlier. So the Dragon decides to see if he can defeat this demon in order to rescue Tripitaka. So the Dragon transforms himself into a palace maiden and approaches the Demon on the excuse of being a wine server. The Demon allows it, so the Dragon does a little trick called 'Magic of Water Restriction, which enables him to pour the wine to overfill the glass by half an inch without spilling. He also ups the anti and proceeds to fill the cup until it is about thirteen inches overfilled. The Demon is amused by this party trick and asks the Dragon if they can sing. So the Dragon picks a little tune and does so. Next the Demon asks if they know how to dance. The Dragon says they can, but it won't look as nice since they are empty handed, in response the demon hands them their own sword. So, so far, everything is going according to Keikaku.

So the Dragon performs a beautiful sword dance until they spot their opening when the demon is distracted and takes a swing at them. Unfortunately the Demon dodges their first strike, and is now ready for them. So the Dragon returns to his true form and takes this fight to the air. Unfortunately the dragon doesn't do any better against the demon then Pigsy and Sandy did. Before to long the Dragon tries hurling the sword at them only for the demon to catch it and uno reverse the attack. Throwing a candelabrum at the dragon and injuring his leg. Knowing this is a fight they can't win, the Dragon does a strategic retreat into a nearby moat and hides there until the demon leaves. After that, the Dragon leaves the moat in order to return to the stables and turns back into a horse to mope. A for effort Dragon Horse, better luck next time.

Meanwhile Pigsy has finally woken up from his nap in the bushes and decides he should probably return to Tripitaka in order to figure out a new plan for rescuing Sandy. So Pigsy returns to the palace but doesn't see Tripitaka anywhere, he does however find their horse- soaking wet with an injured leg. At first Pigsy assumes that someone must have robbed Tripitaka and wounded the horse in the process- until the horse decides to speak up for themselves. This greatly surprises Pigsy, enough so that he tries to make a run for it, before the horse grabs him by his teeth to hold him back.

Then the horse proceeds to completely lay into Pigsy saying how it's all his fault for boasting about his abilities despite not having the power to actually defeat the demon. He also tells him about the trouble Tripitaka has gotten himself into, as well as his own failed attempt at fighting the demon. Pigsy's response to all this is basically 'Welp, that all sucks, anyways, you should just go home to the ocean and I'll just go home to my own kidnapped wife and we can forget all about this questing business.

The horse however isn't willing to give up so easily, and tearfully says that the best way to fix this will be to bring 'That Person' back into the fold. The person in question of course being Sun Wukong, who without a doubt actually is capable of subduing the demon and rescuing Tripitaka. Pigsy on the other hand isn't to enthused about this plan, him and Monkey didn't exactly part on good terms. After all, it was Pigsy's fault for goading Tripitaka into kicking Monkey out of the group in the first place. Monkey definitely hates him now and will probably hit him if he see's him- which would kill Pigsy.

The Horse suggests that instead of telling Monkey that Tripitaka is in danger, just tell him that their master just misses him, and when Monkey comes and see's the trouble, he'll just defeat the demon no problem. Pigsy finally agree's to go, but says that if he fails to convince Monkey to return, that he won't be coming back either.

So Pigsy makes his way to Flower Fruit Mountain and see's Sun Wukong ruling over all his monkey subjects, which Pigsy thinks is a pretty good deal, way better then being a monk. Anyways, Pigsy tries to blend in with the crowd, only for Monkey to spot him and call him out for being suspicious immediately. So all the little monkeys immediately push him to the front for Monkey to evaluate him.

Anyways, Monkey recognizes him as Pigsy and asks why he isn't with Tripitaka. He questions if Pigsy has been banished to, and requests to see his letter of banishment. Pigsy denies that he has been banished and just says that he's here because Tripitaka just missed him and wants to invite him back. Monkey however isn't buying it after all on the day he banished him, Tripitaka swore to heaven that he would never take him as a disciple again. Pigsy insists that it's true that Tripitaka misses him and says that once when Tripitaka was riding the horse he called out 'disciple' only for Sand and Pigsy not to respond. And that Tripitaka then proceeded to say that only Monkey was smart and alert enough to answer when called. He says that Tripitaka then sent Pigsy to bring Monkey back, so would he please come for the sake of him having traveled all this way?

Monkey however isn't in a rush to go back, so instead he invites Pigsy on a grand tour of Flower Fruit Mountain, and Pigsy had no way to refuse. Pigsy is very impressed by Sun Wukong's home, so the two of them waste away the day just hanging out and eating fruit. Before to long though Pigsy decides he should probably try and persuade Wukong to come with him again before it's to late. So Pigsy tries to tell him that he shouldn't keep their master waiting but Monkey is just like 'alright then, we'll part ways here. See you.' When Pigsy asks if Wukong isn't coming with him Wukong says 'Nah, I got a great thing going here, why become a monk? Anyways, tell Tripitaka to lose my number.'

Not seeing anyway to convince him, Pigsy takes his leave. Monkey however is a bit suspicious of what Pigsy will say behind his back, so he has two little monkey's secretly follow him. And sure enough once he's a couple miles away, Pigsy starts cursing him out. So Monkey gets offended had has his monkey's seize him and drag him back to the cave to explain his poor manners.

Officer Bathagar reluctantly hands off the payment to Cad Bane. An illustration for Chapter 10 of "Figment", my fanfic. (Mostly bounty hunter adventures with a dash of romance). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excerpt:

The spaceport was bustling. Transports dropped off passengers. Bags floated or rolled after them. Droids ferried cargo. The bounty hunter leaned against a pillar, far to the side, observing everything with a keen eye. This was the rendezvous for Officer Bathagar, who clearly had nothing to say. The Bith strode straight up to Cad Bane and handed him a datapad with one hand and a case with the other. Bane opened it to see the gold credits gleaming. The Officer checked over his shoulders nervously, only to find no one watching them in the busy port. Uncomfortable, he made to leave.

Bane growled after him, “Law man.”

The Officer stopped in his tracks. “Everything is on the datapad.”

“Looks that way,” Bane agreed. He tilted his head, looking at the man as though he were an unruly teenager. He casually warned, “Don’t get comfy bendin’ the rules.”

The Police Officer became stiff, then forced himself to relax. He nodded and left without a goodbye.

Pssst, Luce!

Breaking my tumblr exile for a nanosecond to ask a small question! What type of dresses do the AU boys like to wear? 👀

Me, still answering after your exile is officially over:

Had to limit myself to 3 examples each, or else I never would have stopped

Sun: the odd one out, enjoys form fitting dresses! or fit and flare, as long as some part of it is fit! gravitates towards longer skirts, partly because he's still somehow wearing formal wear when casual, though he's not afraid to show some "skin"! (a slit in said long skirt is a definite bonus - he has legs to show off!) for sure a fan of saturated or darker colors, tends to stay away from yellow/ orange as it might clash with his shell, but he wouldn't wear exclusively red!

Moon: he likes airy fabrics, and long swishing skirts, knee length at least please! prefers cooler tones, to match his palette (he's not vain in the same way as Sun, he just doesn't like drawing even more attention through contrasts). will not discriminate between bright and dark though - he'll wear a white airy sundress and then something that looks like a witch's dress the next day with zero hesitation. longer sleeves, too, if available! (alternatively, an oversized hoodie counts as a dress, right?)

Eclipse: also definitely more on the airy side - it's playful! anything with a swishing skirt is fun, and he loves short skirts, too! admittedly just a little tricky given that he's also tall af and people tend to act weird about seeing anything under the skirt, but he'll wear some tights or shorts underneath and all is well. prefers pastels and/or colorful dresses, fun patterns and all, and will gladly spin and present any pockets to whomever asks!

They'd all still steal from each other's wardrobe just to be a little shit though, don't be fooled <3

*all dresses from eshakti

#answer let luce #chaotikanvas #dcamv #accidentally undercover #SO sorry it took me so long hfdjsk #the alt descriptions for these dresses are probably not the best but I focused on the aspects that make the boys like them #fashion terms and i. do not even know each other #and copying the suuuper advertisy description from the site also wasnt an option #also. sorry eclipse and sun but now my brain is rotating with moon in a dress #might. have to draw him #we'll see gfhdjs #also sorry for the singular source i again had to limit myself somehow hfjds #for now enjoy <3

Small funni of the celestial goobers. People still comment on this little scene (I also still find it pretty funny) soooo... As a little treat I drew it. Totally has nothing to do with writer's block or my hiatus-

(Ch 14 of my story "ANE" btw)

It isn't really accurate to the actual written scene, but we make sacrifices for the funni!!! (I tried incorporating Star but looking at the back of their head was kinda awkward imo lol)

I've been spending the past bit of time kinda catching up on some of Grian's videos, so I rewatched a lot of Season 8 and actually finally finished it, and have managed to watch through all of Season 9 pretty quickly.

My thoughts below the read more v

And I don't really know what it is, whether it's the fact I'm finishing it so late at night after a long day (Solar Eclipse Baybeeee) or just how this season kinda went along, but I have maybe 50 minutes left of the last episode of season 9 and I'm crying.

The last minute interactions with some of the other hermits, the memories of earlier episodes (even as someone who was admittedly very far behind), or just how much life and appreciation went into this season for all of the hermits is just hitting something. Seeing Grian talk about the others bases and give them the love they truly deserve is really what makes hermitcraft /hermitcraft/ to me.

I've been doing this while waiting between Season 10 eps as something to keep me grounded in the space bc I tend to burn myself out of things I love pretty quickly, but this helps remind me why I keep coming back. I've been watching Grian since around Season 6 (mostly bc I don't remember if I found him when EVO was coming out or not) and while I do tend to stray away for some time, I always end up right back here. I guess this is just a really long-winded appreciation post from myself for Hermitcraft. I just love this community of creators and fans so much.

#hermitcraft #hc9 #hc s9 #sun speaks #we'll see if I cry watching the rest of this video #I wasnt sure if I was going to rewatch Seasons 6 and 7 bc theyre so long but I think it would be a disservice to not go through and #find episodes that help me remember why I keep coming back every season #im also making an excel spread sheet (starting at s6) so I need the data anyways for that #ill probably start going through hermitcaft recaps bc I wont be able to watch every hermit I already know this #i just love all of them for their creativity #to think this restarted with me playing minecraft again

Made this design a while ago just for fun. Challenged myself to make a cosmic dragon (inspired by aurelion sol bc ough i love his design) and ended up with this lovely lady! Her name is Mairza (MIRE-za).

#my design #My characters #dragon #Space Dragon #cosmic dragon #celestial dragon #fun fact the bottom design was her original colors and i recently went back and messed with them to get the top color scheme #bottom one didnt look spacey enough for my tastes #the bottom one is called her Golden Sun Forme #dunno if i'll ever draw her again but we'll see

I’m a little apprehensive to meet Puppet.

I would love to see a character that’s like, super into a special interest (like, anime) but the way that Monty was talking about ‘em it seems like they might fall into that ‘nerdy, unlikeable, weirdo whose character mostly revolves around their special interest’ that I see alot.

All we know about them is they live (lived) in the vents, don’t come oout much, they’re as old as Monty, and they LOVE anime. They’re SUPER into anime. Like, it’s A LOT. Monty’s most recent discussion with Moon, that was the thing he mentioned. The Anime guy.

I am biased, I have HIGH expectations for the Puppet character because I love the Puppet, but I also really hate those kinds of characters. The ones who are super into something and they’re made the ‘weirdo’. I’m thinking like Renge from Ouran, or Ronaldo from Steven Universe. I know those are very different characters but, like, that vibe. Or Nemona from Scarlet and Violet.

#this is of course just a really personal thing #I'm just griping or whatever #The Sun and Moon show has had a pretty fantastic cast of characters so far #we'll see #maybe they'll go a completely different direction with them! who knows!#I do hope above anything else they can become freinds with Lunar because I think he needs some friends #someone whos disconnected completely from all the situations going on with his brothers and stuff #which is something I've thought ALL of them have needed is an outsider with a fresh perspective #Maybe Puppet will be that! Again completely up in the air #im being tentatively excited for their appearance #my brain is also churning out the words new villian new villian new villian over and over again #fafferchat

Hi I love your kinnporsche art 🥰🥰🥰 I just wanna know how do you draw in your own style and also make it look like the actual person??? I just can't seem to do that without getting hyper realistic 😱

Heyyy, thank you so much!! ♥

Sorry to say this but I don't have a magic trick for that either haha I think the key is to use good references!! Find something for the exact angle or expression you need, and then get borderline creepy by just staring at the face for a while to study it lmao sketch it a few times to get a feel for it, and/or trace it if that helps you, just figure out what makes this particular face unique. Like, as an example with kinnporsche for me it’s Bible's cheekbones and his eyes and nose, or Mile's eyebrows and his nose and jaw etc etc. Focus on these features that stand out to you, and emphasise them.

I touched on this a little bit in a previous ask on faces and while that advice is a couple of years old now, I still think that having the right proportions down makes all the difference. Try not to get lost in the details, that way hyper realism lies :D

#somesketchyshitmain #replies #art asks #I will say though that I struggle a lot with drawing apo because that man is just. so. goddamn beautiful???#trying to figure out his face feels like staring directly into the sun #which is the reason why you don't see as much porsche art from me even though I love him a lot lmao #I tried. there are so many WIPs but you know how it is #well. that and the fact that I have 0 time #ANYWAY #thank you again #I hope it helped at least a bit #I was going to sketch a few examples but I just got home from work and I'm so tired #maybe I'll add something tomorrow ... idk. we'll see

4, i am now utterly obsessed with the sandman and dreamling now. hob gadling is my new lil blorbo. no you cannot change my mind.
