if you’re up for requests, do you think we could have some hcs for Redson, MK, and Wukong noticing a ring on their crushes left hand and being bummed cuz they think their chance is gone, but turns out it’s just a gift from a family member they wear out of habit, so now they’re just thinking about how good they look with a ring?

please, and thank you 🙏🏽

WHOSE RING IS THAT?

CHARACTERS - RED SON + MK + SUN WUKONG (SEPERATE)

DISCLAIMER - FLUFF AND A LITTLE BIT OF ANGST IN MK'S PART

IDEA - WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU WEAR THE RING GIVEN TO YOU BY YOUR COUSIN?

WORDS - 2000+

AUTHOR'S NOTES: "I have no idea how to write Wukong. His personality is a mystery to me, but I hope I wrote him decently!"

"Also, I altered the ask a bit! Hope you don't mind!"

• RED SON •

- At first, Red Son would mistake it for one of the many jewelries he's gifted you in an attempt to impress you. He's given you so many that you have a huge collection full of shiny trinkets that he either stole or bought with his own money.

- The jewelry he mostly gives you is consisted of gold and red gems that match the color of his hair, not to mention that his scent lingers on said jewelry - just so demons would know that you were under the protection of the infamous Red Son. So he gets smug whenever you wear one, because to him, it sends a message that someone already had their eyes on you.

- So when he notices you wearing a ring clearly made of silver among the golden bands on your fingers, he's feeling three emotions - surprised, amused, and infuriated.

- Surprised, because he finds that you had another suitor. Amused, because it was only a miniscule piece of cheap silver compared to the expensive gold that he had been giving you. Infuriated, because who even dared to give you a ring?

- He'll sneakily glance and give the ring a burning glare whenever you're not looking while he internally thinks of many different ways to burn your other suitor to a crisp.

- This doesn't go unnoticed though. You'd catch the crimsonette with a sour face when he thinks you're not looking.

- You, who's worried and concerned, have to eventually confront him because he's acting like he has a personal vendetta against the ring that your cousin gave you.

- He's not gonna tell you that truth that easily. This is Red Son! Not only is he fiery-tempered, he's also stubborn.

- But when you finally catch him, corner him into a place where he can't dodge your question nor escape, he'll eventually give in and tell you.

- He'll feel his face burn up at the close contact, and the fact that he has to tell you the truth on why he's been glaring holes at the silver ring on your hand, before mustering up the courage and telling you how he's been trying to woo you with gifts, and that he can't stand seeing that ring on your hand because it's infuriating him.

- "You and that!- That ring!" he huffs, pointing at the jewelry around your finger. "I've been trying to court you with many jewelries, yet you choose to wear such a frugal item on your hand! Is gold not to your liking?! I will give you as much silver as you want to prove myself better than your other suitor!"

- And then it clicks on your head. Red Son likes you and he's been courting you without you knowing!

- The both of you will just stand there for a moment, with Red Son's eyes darted away from you, his arms crossed while you repeated his words in your head. The idea of Red Son being jealous over a ring a family member gave you causes you to snort before full on laughing.

- He'll get confused at your sudden burst of laughter, until you explain that the gift wasn't from a suitor, it was an early Christmas present from your cousin, that you were only wearing it to add variety.

- While you continue to laugh, Red Son's hair will burst into flames, a furious blush painted on his face as he realizes that he had been envious for nothing.

- If you remind him of this in the future, he'll vehemently deny that it happened.

• MK / QI XIAOTIAN •

- MK hasn't gifted you any jewelry as he can't afford it. He's not as rich as Red Son or Mei - but that doesn't stop him from giving you gifts.

- Like Red Son, he's been trying to impress you for a while now. He'll show you the cool moves he learned during his training with the Monkey King, all the epic stuff he did during his battle with the Demon Bull King, anything that comes to his mind just to see a smile painted on your face. You don't know it, but the rest of the gang knows that MK is smitten for you.

- If he gets a bonus from Pigsy, or an extra tip from a customer, he'll either spend it on flowers or chocolate to give to you (and because you're dense, you misunderstand his actions, taking it as a gesture of friendship.)

- But if he notices a band of gold on one of your fingers one day, he'll mistake it for an engagement ring and will choose to avoid and distance himself from you from now on. No more gifts, no more boasting about his abilities, just short greetings and awkward smiles while he walks past you.

- In his mind, you already had someone, and he doesn't need to overstep your boundaries or have his feelings be hurt, no matter how much his heart yearns for you.

- Of course, this doesn't go unnoticed by you, but since he didn't want to be anywhere near your vicinity, you decided to give him some space.

- MK's friends will notice MK being bummed out and unusually quiet. Pigsy will find that MK's been doing more orders than usual (sometimes even getting the orders wrong), Sun Wukong will take note of MK's head being in the clouds and his movements being sloppy and sluggish during training, and Mei's invites to go to the Anti-Gravity Arcade on weekends will be turned down in favor of staying in his apartment alone.

- It gets to the point that Pigsy has to lessen his workload and for the Monkey King to tone down the difficulty of his training just so MK can keep up.

- Mei will launch an investigation with Red Son begrudgingly tagging along (truthfully, he misses fighting with the brunette as its one of the few ways to let off some steam, but the latter's not even showing up, claiming to be busy.)

- They eventually find out that the last person he talked to before his mood plummeted was you, so they'll give your house a visit and will ask you questions about what happened between the two of you.

- The interrogation inquiry goes smoothly. You didn't do anything wrong, and that's what stumped them.

- ... Until they notice the ring on your finger.

- It leads them to bombard you with questions, all asking about your "partner", and who gifted you the ring, and why you didn't tell this to anyone, and even more questions relating to your "engagement".

- You on the other hand, are confused. What in the heavens were they talking about? What engagement?

- When they pointed towards the ring on your finger, it all pieces together for you, before you proceeded to vigorously shake your head.

- You explain to them that it was a gift from a family member, that there was no engagement, and that you thought it would compliment your appearance.

- Mei and Red Son both blink at you, before giving a short glance to one another as they realized the reason why MK had been so bummed out this week.

- The both of them will eventually leave your abode and make their way to the apartment above Pigsy's Noodles.

- With Red Son by her side, Mei knocks on the door.

- There's no answer at first, but after some time, MK will answer with a "yes?", but will refuse to open the door.

- Mei will call for him to come out, but again, MK will refuse to open the door. Red Son, sighing, will grab Mei's shoulder and step forward, deciding to take matters into his hands.

- "Your friend isn't engaged, Noodle Boy." Red Son rolled his eyes. "It was a gift from a family member. Your pitiful episode is getting on my nerves, so cease your moping or I'll have to burn this door down."

- Then it all goes silent, and Red Son actually considers burning the door down, before the sound of something shuffling followed by hasty footsteps was heard from behind the door.

- MK finally opens the door with a surprised look on his face. His hair was messy, his iconic jacket and bandana absent from his form. "What?"

- "I didn't stutter, did I?" Red Son rose a brow as he crossed his arms.

- Both Red Son and Mei could see the light rekindling in his eyes, before MK gives them a hug, grateful.

- The next day, MK will show up at your door, flowers and chocolates in hand as he prepares to finally tell you what he feels. He's gotten a glimpse into what could happen if he lets you slip away, so he's gonna make sure that it won't actually happen.

• SUN WUKONG •

- Jewelry is one of the many things Sun Wukong gifts you in an attempt to court you. ...Aside from fruits and maybe merchandise of himself.

- The man is aware that he's popular, not to mention he's literally the Great Sage Equal to Heaven - he's bound to be overconfident and smug about himself.

- He can't differentiate the difference between his and others gifts by sight alone, as he tends to forget what he's given you- but he can differenciate them by their scent.

- Like Red Son, his scent lingers on the gifts given to you. It's to ward off weaker demons away from you and to tell them that you're under his protection (it may or may not have backfired once, with you getting kidnapped by one of his many enemies to get under his skin.)

- So when he detects a different scent lingering on you, he's both curious and surprised.

- He'll eventually pin the scent down to the ring on your finger and figures out that he didn't give that to you.

- It didn't belong to humans, nor any powerful demons, but it did belong to a weaker demon.

- He went through all that effort of placing his scent on you just for a demon a thousand times weaker than him to try and scent you as well?

- He realizes that he had a "rival". Was he not being forward enough for you? Or were you just really, really dense? Just what did this guy have that he doesn't?

- He'll ask you about it, and if you answer him clearly and truthfully, that it was only given to you by a family member, it'll ease his nerves and tell you that it got him worried for a second. He trusts you that much.

- But if you decide to be vague about it, telling him that it was only given to you by someone close and that it didn't matter, he'll be suspicious.

- If he sees your family member come over and interact with you, he'll actually end up watching in one of his many forms, be it a bird, a bug, or any kind of creature that can blend into the surroundings.

- Is it just you, or does that butterfly closely resemble MK's mentor? Hmm, maybe that's just your imagination!

- He'll take mental notes of your companion to try and find a way to one-up them. He's competitive, especially when it comes to you.

- When the family member eventually leaves, he'll eventually pop out and greet you, acting like he just recently came.

- "Oh hi, Wukong! A surprise to see you here, but a welcome one."

- He'll greet you back, before glancing towards the back of your cousin, the latter's figure becoming smaller and smaller in the distance, before asking you how your day was.

- "It was good!" you answered, and his posture visibly shrinks from how happy you looked today. "My cousin decided to drop by today and swap something. Apparently, he gave me the wrong gift! The one that was supposed to be for his partner."

- "... Your cousin?"

- "Yeah!"

- Sun Wukong blinks, processing what you just said, before his tail begins to swish left and right while his expression visibly brightens up.

- He's relieved and internally celebrates at the fact that it was only a huge misunderstanding, before shaking his head as he walks closer to you, taking your hand and encasing it with his calloused ones.

- When you ask him what he's doing, he'll give you a toothy smile.

- Since his attempts to woo you by giving you gifts doesn't work, he decides to be more straightforward this time.

- "[Name], will you be mine?"

They say you die three times, first when the body dies, second, when your body enters the grave, and third, when your name is spoken for the last time. You were a normal person in life, but hundreds of years later, you still haven't had your "third" death. You decide to find out why.

i'm so glad goncharov happened when it did, right before prolific public use of AI. that was pure honest gaslighting straight from the heart. real human whimsicality and trickery thru blood sweat and tears. we were a family. and we all gonched, together. you cant replicate that with any machine.

[thesefallenembers]

the problem with reading and writing leading to a strong vocabulary is that you tend to know the vibe of words instead of their meanings.

if I used this word in a sentence, would it make sense? absolutely. if you asked me what it meant, could I tell you? absolutely not.

[butchfalin]

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

How the TRAFFIC LIGHT TRIO realize that they have feelings for you

CHARACTERS — RED SON + MK + MEI (SEPERATE)

DISCALIMER - PURE FLUFF

WORDS - 790+ words

(Do not follow if you want to see more content of this. I only do this rarely and I am mainly an OC x Canon blog).

RED SON (260 words)

Red Son is familiar with seeing love from a third-person's perspective. He's seen how his parents deeply love one another, so he has a general idea of what happens when one falls on love.

... Or so he thought. When Red Son develops feelings for you, he will mistake it for hatred. He will act more stand-offish and aloof with you, and in turn, you act defensive around him.

But he'll accidentally spill his unrecognized feelings to one of the other members.

"That annoying brat (Y/N) gets on my nerves." He huffs, crossing his arms. "Even the sight of them makes my heart race. I despise them so much."

Mei, who watches romcoms and is familiar with the emotional language Red Son speaks, quickly snapped her head towards him, eyes wide and jaw agape before it turned into a mischievous and teasing smile. "Ooh~! Somebody's got a crush~!"

Red Son sputters, blinking in surprise with his eyes furrowed. "What an absurd notion!-"

Later after that, he researches the symptoms of love in order to deny it - but instead, an epiphany comes to him the longer he researched the symptoms.

Red Son's stubborn, but he's not delusional to deny the evidence that was presented right in front of his eyes.

He'll still be the same, fiery-tempered Red Son, but towards you, he's a bit softer.

His stares will linger, and the tips of his hair will sizzle and produce smoke (and in rare cases, catches fire).

The rest of the Traffic Light Trio will complain about his obvious favortism towards you.

MEI (270 words)

Similar to Red Son, Mei is familiar with seeing love from a third-person's perspective, but also terrible at realizing her own feelings.

At first, she'll mistake her romantic feelings for admiration. She'll turn clingy, will invite you to hangout with her and MK (she'd actually prefer it if he didn't, only sometimes!) frequently, and will show you off on her streams and social media (with consent, of course!)

Realization happens one day while she's at her home, texting you until you send a message with the combination of a smiley-face and a heart emoji.

Immediately, she lies down on her stomach, a pillow below her chin as she giggles and kicks her feet.

When she's done doing that, she immediately widens her eyes in surprise as she gasps, her hands feeling the heat in her cheeks as realization settled.

"Oh gosh, I'm in love with them..!"

It takes her more than 10 minutes to even reply back.

From that point on, she'll become even more clingy, and will increase the amount of trackers and hidden cameras on you. (She canonically does this in the show.)

She's a competitive person, and she can't stand losing you to someone else, so she'll confess as soon as she gets the signal that you like her too.

If she hasn't received any signals yet, she'll be bit territorial over you.

"Haha! Yeah!" She chuckled, wrapping an arm around your neck as she puts her cheek against yours. "This is (Y/N)! We're extremely close, so we're like, more than besties!"

"Oh, so like, best-best friends?" MK inquired.

Mei's eye only twitched back in reply.

MK (264 words)

I doubt MK even knows what he is feeling most of the time, let alone romantic feelings, so it'll take him a really, really long time to realize that he loves you.

He'll mistake his feelings for you for friendship and deep admiration. Even when his heart beats faster around you, or his stares linger a bit too long on you, or the fact that even the simplest of things, such as your smile... or your presence in general, will brighten up his whole day.

He gets so confused that he'll either ask Pigsy or Tang (maybe even both) about the things he's feeling.

"Why does my heart beat so fast when I'm around (Y/N)?" MK tilted his head in confusion. "And why do they often appear on my mind? And why are they so amazing?"

Meanwhile (Pigsy/Tang) will just feel three things at once; exasperation, disbelief, and amusement, because how is MK so dense to the point that he's literally describing the symptoms of being lovestruck to them?

"MK, buddy, you're in love."

"Oh!" MK blinked, before averting his gaze as he scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment with a nervous smile. "... Oh. Haha... I guess I am!"

... He didn't even deny it.

After that, he'll become more touchy, will show-off his abilities to you more frequently along with receiving neat, little gifts here and there (he's been saving up for those!).

All of his friends know about it. Not just the rest of the Traffic Light Trio, but the whole Monkie Gang.

And they're all rooting for him.

[the-overanalyst]

it's always so fascinating and heartbreaking when a character in a story is simultaneously idolized and abused. a chosen prophet destined for martyrdom. a child prodigy forced to grow up too fast. a powerful warrior raised as nothing but a weapon. there's just something so uniquely messed up about singing someone's praises whilst destroying them.
