[wileys-russo]

just like mummy II l.williamson

in the same universe as legacy and little golfer

"mila! mil? mila?" leah called out with a frown, poking her head in each room with a frown that deepened each time she didn't find her daughter.

"okay bubba this isn't funny we need to leave soon!" leah's voice wavered as she ducked down, checking under the beds with a huff as again she came up empty.

"mila? mummy isn't joking we really need to leave!" leahs chest tightened a little as she went room to room hunting for the four year old.

normally you took charge when it came to getting your daughter ready of a morning before training, but considering today was pre season media day you'd had meetings set earlier than leahs so you'd already left before the four year old was up.

normally mila was the very first awake of the three of you but last night she'd been particularly stubborn about refusing to go to bed which leah had promised to take care of after almost two hours of trying to get her settled, practically locking you in the bathroom to shower.

when you'd finished you'd found them both curled up on the lounge in front of the tv, passed out together with a rerun of the euros playing on the large screen.

so with a much later bedtime than normal she'd actually slept in to the point leahs alarm had gone off and she was stunned to be alone in bed, expecting a four year old lump curled up on the end of her bed as usual like a cat.

"ready!" the blonde almost jumped out of her skin as tiny footsteps sounded behind her.

"i look like you! wanted to match today." the girl grinned, one of leahs arsenal kits hanging down on her like a dress and her feet drowned in a pair of football boots and socks which continued to fall down.

"stay up!" the smaller blonde huffed yanking at them with a scowl which if you'd been there you'd have commented was near identical to leahs own.

"oh mila." leah chuckled, relief flooding her body replaced quickly with amusement. "you have boots! lets go find them you monkey." the blonde laughed, scooping up her daughter and tossing her over her shoulder.

~

"mama!" you looked away from the interviewer at the familiar scream, hiding a laugh at the way your wife grabbed the back of your daughters top trying to restrain her, other hand barely holding together her own bag as well as mila's, lia hurrying over to lend a hand.

"thats us pretty much done anyway." the interviewer smiled kindly, nodding for you to go as you thanked them and shook hands, standing up and heading over to where a small riot had taken place as mila's aunties all fought over who got a hug first.

"excuse me i think i take priority." you called out over the squabbling, leah almost taken to the floor by the force in which your daughter pulled to get to you, letting go and catching her footing as a small body slammed into your legs.

"mama you weren't there when i woke up." mila frowned as you smiled and smoothed her creased eyebrows out with your thumb, squatted down to be at her level.

"i know, but remember i told you i had to come to work early? to take pictures." you poked her stomach a few times eliciting a giggle. "oh yeah. hey look! i match mummy." mila perked back up, taking a step back and doing a spin.

"you didn't want to match me?" you gasped in mock offence, mila shaking her head with a cheeky smile and running back to leah before you could grab her.

"no i'm mummys little gunner."

~

it was around an hour later when the day took a turn, mila having been passed around between your teammates as you and leah fulfilled your interviews and commitments.

you were doing a few tiktoks with laia for barclays when you were interrupted by your best friend, whispering something to one of the producers who frowned but nodded.

"williamson, you're needed. can someone go find pelova to take her place please?"

confused you stepped aside, alessia grabbing your hand without another word and tugging you away. "where are we going?" you questioned with a frown. "we have a problem." the blonde sighed, refusing to elaborate much more as she pulled you out of the main room.

"wait is it mila? is she hurt? sick? do we need an ambulance?" you began to panic as you were pulled toward the change rooms. "yes, no, no, not yet." alessia answered which didn't help ease your anxiety.

"not yet!" you exclaimed though as the taller girl pulled you into the change rooms and you saw the sight in front of you, suddenly things all made sense.

"oh my god."

"just like mummy!" mila cheered, sat on the bench on lia's lap with a horrendously self cut attempt at a fringe, safety scissors confiscated and a very guilty looking kyra hovering about nearby.

"what. happened." you exhaled unable to drag your gaze away from your daughters new haircut.

"she was with kyra and i and we were colouring. then she asked for some scissors and we assumed she was going to cut out the picture from her book to show you and leah and well we looked away for like one minute and..." lia began to explain, trailing off gesturing to mila's forehead and her new 'bangs'.

"mila.." you exhaled, dragging your hands down your face as alessia rubbed your back gently. "mummy got a hair cut, so i got a hair cut." the four year old beamed clearly very proud of herself.

"has leah seen-" "nope."

though you may have jinxed it as footsteps sounded and the woman i question arrived, mila's bag in hand ready to tell the pair of you that you were all free to head to lunch.

"leah. it was an accident love, breathe." you grabbed your wifes arms watching her face change as she took in mila's haircut and the scissors sitting idly by, mouth opening and closing as she looked around the room.

"kyra. we need to go outside...for a little chat." leah warned, voice calm and face anything but as she didn't even wait for someone to explain before deciding who she was blaming for this.

"leah-" the girl couldn't even get a word out before she sprinted off, your wife quick to follow her as mila just giggled and you sighed, alessia's hand coming to sit on her shoulder.

"now i think we might need that ambulance."

Hi! Honestly i have so much to ask you! So if i get overwhelming or annoying please let me know!

This ask is geared more towards Halloween!

What if we dress up for D/O and Wukong (separate, please), for halloween. Costumes with some flair, and plans a secretive trick on both of them! Can we get them to participate for trick or treating/handing out candy, pumpking carving, horror movie marathon things? ^-^

Sorry for being late on this one!!!! Work is ugh 😭🤣 hope you like this! I wrote it while standing in line to vote today and I hope no one looked over my shoulder 🫡

DO/WK and Halloween…

Oh boy.

I think he’d LOVE this holiday. While Destined One is reserved I think both he and Wukong, being the cheeky monkey he is would LOVE the idea of “trick or treat” and would take it to heart. Would absolutely play pranks as often as he could. If you don’t have a treat on you when he asks? Sucks to suck you’re going to find yourself at his mercy for whatever hellish thing he had planned. Hope you have a good sense of humor.

*Horror Movies: He WILL scare the shit out of you after you watch them together. Can’t help it. He loves pranking you and don’t worry he will snuggle you after but he’s gonna wanna make you jump and scream as he creeps around the house.

*Trick or treating: He can shape shift and I do NOT doubt for a second he would make you take him while he pretends to be a kid in some costume. He will LOVE getting candy and will be happy with his hoard after. Be ready to hold his hand or he might run off to scare others or gets too excitable and will accidentally leave you behind. (He loves this because it means he can be clingy with you)

*You playing a prank on him/trick or treat? Depends…he might let it slide or he might get you back 10x worse….🤣 don’t challenge him. He finds you and your attempts cute. But he’s a master of trickery. He may pretend to be put out about it though too just to make you feel better. If you MANAGE to catch him off guard? Oh he’s proud but at the same time you’re gonna get it 😈.

(little bit of nsfw at the end)

Destined One:

- [ ] Honestly doesn’t care about horror movies or handing out candy. Just wants to spend time with you.

- [ ] Will hand out candy with you, finds the kids cute but mostly just stands behind you or gently hands out candy.

- [ ] Older kids? Might scare the shit out of them for a snicker.

- [ ] Dresses in whatever you put him in. As long as you tell him he looks good he’s all for it.

- [ ] Loves eating treats with you and making them with you, again is more of a participant that goes alone with you.

- [ ] Helps you decorate and might pick a few things out that he finds interesting, likes the more gory stuff.

- [ ] Haunted houses? Ehhhh might need some convincing because honestly he might struggle with differentiating “danger” and “fun”. Especially with you screaming next to him.

- [ ] Although, once he gets cozy he just LOVES you clinging on to him (even if you’re playing it up). Makes him feel like your protector and strong.

- [ ] Movies, he will watch them with you. Won’t say much and just enjoys being cuddled up with you. Will LOVE if you cuddle closer to him at night in bed because you’re “scared”. On the off chance he gets absorbed in it and actually jumps while watching a movie, no he didn’t. Will deny it with his whole chest.

- [ ] Pumpkin carving? He’s gonna like cutting it up and it probably pretty neat about to. He definitely like showing you his “art” and wants your praise. Keep an eye on the guts of the pumpkin though, you might find him flicking it at you or sticking it down your shirt.

- [ ] Not a party guy but he will go with you, had fun with you and any games that are played. Very good at them usually too. Enjoys whatever drink you pass to him and might go hunt some more down if he likes it enough. Absolutely shares his food hoard with you because he’s snacking the whole night.

Wukong

- [ ] Oh man is he excited. He LOVES candy- you probably have to buy SEVERAL bags to keep him out of them/make sure you have some for the kids.

- [ ] He’s that excitable adult that coos and crows about how cute or cool a kids costume is. Loves giving the candy out to them (in handfuls so watch him).

- [ ] Yeah he’s gonna scare people too. Probably makes a few kids cry and laughs about it.

- [ ] Let him pick his costume. It will either be the most hilarious thing you’ve ever seen or sexy as hell because he is the STAR here okay?

- [ ] If he loves the candy you KNOW he loves the food and treats.

- [ ] LOVES decorating, the scarier the better.

- [ ] He’s going to have a blast at haunted houses. Well, once he gets over that it’s for FUN and they aren’t for beating up/sparring with.

- [ ] Hes going to laugh at you if you get scared and boast about how “Ol Sun will protect you don’t worry”. If you don’t scare easy that’s okay, play it up and watch his chest puff up because he thinks he’s protecting you. He will try tos care the scare actors.

- [ ] Movies? Hit or miss with him. He’s not scared but he might nitpick stuff and be annoying or he will try to scare you while you watch them together. Might whisper his own scary stories to you. Likes them gory. Will laugh and cackle the more gruesome it is and your reaction to it. He will say he’s cuddling you because you were so scared, even if you weren’t but it’s his excuse.

- [ ] Pumpkin carving? Yeah. You’re trusting HIM with a knife? Maybe just let him rip its guts out. He will like that part. He’s gonna be obnoxious with it too and squish the pumpkin guts and make gross sounds. Monkey CHILD. His pumpkin is going to be so gross - like vomiting pumpkin guts and stuff. Pumpkin is everywhere.

- [ ] Party animal. While he will stick close to you most of the time, if he disappears don’t be surprised because he is DEFINITELY causing mischief and making himself the center of attention. Loves any game involving food or just winning in general. Likes the themed drinks too.

NSFW for both:

- [ ] You dressing up for him after things are over/maybe as a costume change? Slutty costume or just something he finds appealing????? HELL YEAH he’s on board. He LOVES this holiday.

- [ ] His tail is gonna be GOING. Swishing this way and that and he’s going to be stalking you around the house like a salivating wolf.

- [ ] Kudos if you spend the whole day teasing him with your outfit, he’s gonna be READY and amped to have you. Might not resist honestly….you may find yourself at his mercy a few times that day/night.

- [ ] Likes showing you off because “LOOK AT THEM THEY ARE MINE!” Hopefully someone doesn’t show TOO much interest in you though because he’s gonna mark his territory with marks on your neck and rubbing against you pointedly.

- [ ] Or at a party DO would hover near you while SWK would keep a watchful eye from near by.

- [ ] Definitely into costume play. He is soooooo ready bite it off you or tear it off you with his claws. (Probably be teasing his tail under the fabric all day too)

- [ ] Sharing candy or treats sensually

- [ ] Some of his “tricks” might be on the sexy side. Where he teases the ever loving shit out of you before leaving you on the cusp and doesn’t let you orgasm.

- [ ] If you like him in certain costumes???? Yes. He’s gonna fuck you in it / you fuck him (whatever floats that boat).

- [ ] If you’re into the whole “prey runs and monster catches” kink? Yeah he’s ready for that too. He will chase you down and have you.

A song that the boys represent with their lover, was thinking it'll be either cute or questionable

Sakamaki's

Shu Sakamaki:

Song: “The Night We Met” – Lord Huron A mournful tune for a man haunted by the past. This represents his regret over emotional detachment and the ache of yearning for someone he never expected to love so deeply.

Reiji Sakamaki:

Song: “Control” – Halsey He sees his lover as both his balance and his chaos. The song captures his need to dominate, discipline, and yet secretly fear the emotional control his S/O has over him.

Laito Sakamaki:

Song: “Earned It” – The Weeknd Laito’s version of love is laced with seduction and blurred boundaries. This song reflects how he sees his lover: someone who endured his madness and thus “earned” his loyalty.

Kanato Sakamaki:

Song: “Dollhouse” – Melanie Martinez He literally treats his lover like a doll, and this twisted portrayal of a “perfect” relationship behind closed doors is his aesthetic to a T. Adorable, creepy, and controlling.

Ayato Sakamaki:

Song: “I Wanna Be Yours” – Arctic Monkeys A cocky love anthem masked as devotion. Ayato wants to own you—but also desperately be needed by you. It's possessive, catchy, and just soft enough under the arrogance.

Subaru Sakamaki:

Song: “Ghost” – Badflower Subaru’s love is intense, painful, and self-loathing. This song is a desperate scream for comfort in a world that makes him feel like a monster.

Mukami's

Ruki Mukami:

Song: "Animals” – Maroon 5 Ruki sees his S/O as prey—but it’s also about obsession masked as sophistication. He’s calm on the surface, but underneath he’s ravenous, hunting you like a beast in love.

Kou Mukami:

Song: "Paparazzi” – Lady Gaga On-brand for a star like Kou. He craves attention and adoration, but his S/O gets caught up in a fame-fueled mess of love and emotional manipulation.

Yuma Mukami:

Song: "Fireflies” – Owl City Yuma’s rough exterior hides a childlike heart. This song fits a softer side he only shows his S/O, giving their relationship a nostalgic and whimsical feeling.

Azusa Mukami:

Song: “Lovely” – Billie Eilish & Khalid Their relationship is fragile, melancholy, and beautiful in its broken way. This duet fits Azusa’s need to be saved and the gentleness he shows his beloved despite his pain.

Tsukinami's

Carla Tsukinami:

Song: "Castle” – Halsey Carla views his lover as someone either meant to stand beside him in power or be crushed beneath it. This song reflects the loneliness of authority and the weight of destiny.

Shin Tsukinami:

Song: “Bad Boy” – Red Velvet A cheeky, dangerous kind of love. Shin is chaotic and impulsive, but something about his S/O tames him—and this song plays into that flirtation with danger and charm.

Ok, but... slow cooked au Wukong is happy with his sort of adopted son. His sort of adopted daughters. And his little princess, Yubei. He is not looking for any more cubs. Unfortunately for him, he gets shoved into a furnace for the better part of the year with only a ripped piece of Macaque's scarf (covered in the other monkeys fur mind you) for any sort of comfort, one that's underground and sealed specifically to contain him. And unlike the last one he was trapped in, this one ain't turned on. When he is finally rescued by a pissed off Macaque and MK, he takes one look at his inner self and has to stop himself from screaming expletives too spicy for Yubei's sensitive ear. Twins! Wukong didn't even know twins were even a possibility!!

Guess thats how Jidu and Luohou happen XD

Yuebei's little ears have to be covered once Wukong gets checked over by Guanyin, who confirms the presence of *two* whole eggs in there!!

Lao Tzu and Gold Star are busy nerding out over the schematics and implications of twin Stone Monkeys, while Guanyin is busy hunting down whoever locked Wukong in that furance.

Macaque and Wukong are both super nervous and kinda excited?? Cus maybe Wukong's body is legit cool with the process now?

They're more confused by the sheer normality of the twins boys' development - only a little longer than a regular monkey demon pregnancy (most of a year).

Turns out with an active support system, a loving troop + mate, a healthy parental mindset and eniviroment, and lots of modern-day high-calorie junk food to speed up the process; the twins don't take nearly as long as their big sister. They are born a little smaller than normal, but are otherwise just as cheeky and michevious as any other infant - even more so since they seem to have inherited Macaque's shadow magic.

The Heavens are very confused.

Brace for an electrifying adventure as Billy reunites with his fearless friend Bluma, igniting a storm of mischief and mayhem!

When Billy’s immortal parents entrust him with a radiant, unbreakable orb, a cheeky monkey snatches it, dunking it into Bluma’s bread dough.

Their lion guardian, Leonard, chows down on the loaf—only to shatter a tooth on the orb!

The kids’ outrageous fix?

Strapping Leonard’s tooth to a boulder and launching it downhill, sending the lion smashing into a stone wall with a tooth-yanking explosion!

The crash unearths a secret: a porcelain box shatters, spilling a cryptic map and a gold coin etched with Aunt Mathilda’s face—their beloved nanny, slain in the Tribulation, now reborn as an immortal saint.

Fueled by curiosity and courage, Billy and Bluma ditch school, embarking on a forbidden quest to find her, with a roaring Leonard reluctantly in tow.

The map drags them into a vibrant farmer’s market crawling with danger, where they cross paths with Junta—a charismatic but diabolical cult leader.

His dazzling Carnival City is a trap, luring kids into his sinister underground sect. In a heart-stopping betrayal, Junta drugs Leonard, shipping the lion off to a savage hunting ground as prized prey, while he tricks the kids into a shadowy abyss. When they defy his twisted cause, he throws them into a pitch-black prison, their fate hanging by a thread.

Can Billy and Bluma outwit Junta’s deadly cult?

Will they save Leonard from a hunter’s crosshairs?

Bursting with jaw-dropping twists, pulse-pounding action, and a spark of supernatural mystery, Billy & Bluma: Double Trouble by Janice Wee is an unputdownable thrill ride that will leave you gasping for more. Join the adventure—unleashed May 2, 2025!

Under the September sky!

🌄 Old Manali: Where Time Slows Down and Magic Wakes Up Nestled in the heart of the Himalayas, Old Manali isn’t just a destination—it’s a mood. Imagine cobblestone paths winding through apple orchards, rivers humming ancient secrets, and cafés where every latte comes with a side of wanderlust. Here’s how I fell under its spell during my stay, and why you’ll want to pack your bags today.

✨ 3 Unique Travel Experiences That Rewired My Soul

Midnight Music & Moonlit Stories at Café 1947 Picture this: A riverside café lit by fairy lights, the Beas River roaring in the dark, and a guitarist strumming Bob Dylan covers as travelers swap tales. I sipped spiced chai while a backpacker from Argentina shared her Himalayan trekking saga. The air buzzed with spontaneity—a reminder that the best stories aren’t planned, they’re lived.

Meditating with the “First Man” at Manu Temple Perched on a hilltop, the 16th-century Manu Temple is where myth meets mindfulness. Legend says Sage Manu, humanity’s progenitor, meditated here after a great flood. Sitting cross-legged under deodar trees, I felt the weight of centuries dissolve—until a cheeky monkey stole my banana. Spiritual and entertaining? Only in Old Manali.

Trekking to Jogini Falls Through Emerald Alleys The hike to Jogini Waterfalls is like walking through a watercolor painting. Mist-kissed apple orchards, pine forests whispering gossip, and finally—a 150-foot cascade crashing into a crystal pool. I dipped my toes in icy water while a local shepherd offered me wild berries. Nature’s spa, no appointment needed.

🎒 5 Unmissable Things to Do/See/Try

🍎 Pluck Apples (and Secrets) in Hidden Orchards Wander off-path to find family-owned orchards where farmers let you pick sun-warmed apples. Bonus: They’ll teach you Himachali folk songs over siddu (steamed bread stuffed with walnuts).

🛍️ Hunt for Bohemian Treasures in the Hippie Market Think Tibetan prayer flags, hand-knit woolens, and silver jewelry that whispers “adventure.” Bargain like a pro—your haggling skills fund a local artist’s next masterpiece.

☕ Sip Global Flavors at Dylan’s Toasted & Roasted This rooftop café serves Himalayan coffee roasted over oak fire. Pair it with lemon-poppyseed cake while scribbling postcards to your future self.

🪂 Paraglide Over Solang Valley’s Snow-Kissed Canvas A 20-minute drive away, Solang Valley lets you soar like a hawk above emerald meadows and snow-dusted peaks. Pro tip: Scream loud—the mountains echo back.

🧖♀️ Soak in Vashisht’s Sulfur Hot Springs These ancient springs are said to heal everything from heartbreak to hangovers. I left my worries in the steam and emerged lighter (and smelling faintly of eggs).

🌤️ Weather Wisdom: When to Go & How to Pack

March–June 🌸: Sunny days (15–25°C), perfect for treks. Pack light layers, sunscreen, and a reusable water bottle.

July–September ☔: Monsoon magic! Expect lush greenery but slippery trails. Waterproof boots and a raincoat are non-negotiable.

October–February ❄️: Snow transforms Old Manali into a gingerbread village. Thermal wear, woolen socks, and a flask for chai are essentials. Some cafés close—call ahead!

🏔️ Nearby Gems: Day Trips That Steal Your Breath

Rohtang Pass (39 km) A high-altitude wonderland where you’ll sled on glaciers and drink thukpa with nomadic shepherds (open May–Oct).

Naggar Castle (20 km) A 15th-century stone fortress turned art gallery, with views so sharp they’ll cut through your soul.

📣 Your Final Call-to-Action: Let the Mountains Whisper Your Name

Old Manali doesn’t just wait for travelers—it chooses them. Whether you’re chasing waterfalls, hunting for the perfect cappuccino, or craving silence louder than city noise, this Himalayan haven has your story ready. Book your stay now (spring fills fast!), lace up your boots, and let the deodar trees scribble their secrets into your journal.

P.S. Lost? Follow the smell of apple pie. The mountains always guide you home. 🍏✨
