I'd like to think peaches are like their symbol of friendship

Remember their fight when Wukong was sealed under the mountain? It ended up with Macaque crushes that peach and leaving Wukong

And in ss4, Wukong offered this peach popsicle to Macaque, which officially means that Wukong is offering Macaque a second chance. And he accepted it. HOW DID I JUST NOTICE THAT

[arackoondraws]

Bit of mei, for the soul

[mortal-mayhem]

Less of a headcanon more of a brainrot but

Macaque would be vibe af with Mystery Skulls' song Freaking Out. Literally have a mental image of him nodding and bopping his head to the beat.

Thinking about how Macaque just wanted a simple life. Do nothing but laugh and enjoy life with his favorite stone monkey. He just wanted to settle down because he believed this was all they ever wanted.

Wukong thought they deserved more. So he strove for power. He made allegiances because he knew it wouldn't be enough. Keeping his loved ones safe would take more than what they had now. And Wukong believed they could do it, together.

You like brainrot, don't u?

Shadow Lord AU

Wukong woke up. Confused. With a terrible headache. He looked around , seeing Ao Lie next to him

"Where am I? " He would as and Ao lie would explain that he's in the camp. As they found him unconscious after fight with the other monkey demon . He sat up holding his head with painful expression as it dawn at him

"Where is he?"

"Tripitaka? Safe-"

"Not Master ,The other monkey. Where is he Ao Lie??" Wukong was stressed. It was an unusual sight.

"I don't -" Ao lie seemed confused at the question

"Please Ao lie -where is he? " Wukong pleaded as Tripitaka came in

"He fled. We didn't find him near you"

Monk's face didn't show anger, he was trying to not show many emotions however it was really difficult. He was concerned about Wukong. Because it wasn't the first time when something like that happened.

He saw before Wukong fight.

He saw before Wukong killing demons.

But this is the first time when he is witnessing real fear coming from Wukong.

That fight changed something.

All he saw now was a scared companion before him , scared not for own but someone's well-being

Wukong would fall to his knees , head kissing the ground and beg his master of letting him find this demon

Tripitaka didn't understand at the time. Something was telling him to listen to his companion and let him go . So he did. He was trusting that Wukong will come back.

As he thought, Wukong did come back. But it wasn't the monkey he knew

Dull , empty , colorless eyes . More matted fur. Colors on him blank in contrast to his ever colorful layers of clothing

"I'm back, Master. "

That was the only words spoken to him .

My top 7 Apollo exes from Ancient Greece

DISCLAIMER: Though I have done a lot of research of mythology for this, it is based off of the riordanverse version of Apollo. I won't be acknowledging any awful implications in versions of these myths, not because I don't think they're important, but because it simply isn't a part of riordanverse Apollo's characterization in the books. Also I'm not going to mention Copollo. I love Copollo like the rest of you, but sadly that is a Rick Riordan exclusive, and also technically Commodus is an ex from Ancient Rome, not Ancient Greece :3

Ok with that out of the way lets talk obscure and non-obscure Apollo relationships

7. Apollo & Thyia

This one clocks in at number 7 because I love the idea behind it, but it is the most bare bones relationship myth wise. All we really know is Thyia is a priestess of Dionysus and she and Apollo maybe had a kid once. But like, the idea of Apollo dating his brother's priest? Hilarious, A+ stuff. Also, Thyia isn't just one of Dionysus' priests, she is THE priest of Dionysus. She runs his temple in central greece, is thought to have offered the first sacrifice to him, and might have been the first Maenad? Either way this relationship must have been insane. Also she's a nymph so she's definitely still kicking out there, would love for these two to meet again.

6. Apollo & Hyacinthus

Ok ok I know what y'all are thinking. Number 6?? This is like Apollo's number 1 most tragic relationship of all time!!! And yes as an angst lover I do enjoy the pain this relationship brings our boy, but I just feel like there's not many places to go with this relationship besides what we already have. Like Apollo and Hyacinthus were kind of the perfect couple. Which, like, great for them, but it doesn't give me much space to add anything? I guess, great ship, no notes.

5. Apollo & Hypermnestra (& Oikles)

Ok, half the reason this is here is because her name is Hypermnestra. Slay. But also this is a great place to bring up my favorite little headcanon. In a lot of Apollo's relationships, there will be a child, and myths will have different versions with different fathers. Some say it's Apollo, while other's say it's whoever he dated's husband. In this case, myths disagree on whether Amphiaraus was Apollo's son or the son of Hypermnestra's husband, king Oikles (Oikles??? I love these names). The implication here is infidelity, but I disagree. No, I think every time there's confusion over who parentage it's because Apollo was dating both the woman he's said to be with and her husband, and therefore no one knows who ended up, y'know, fathering the child. Anyways Apollo dated both Hypermnestra and Oikles and you can't convince me otherwise.

4. Apollo & Branchus

I like this relationship because in my mind, I always thought it was Apollo's first. In one version of their myth, it is said that Apollo met Branchus after leaving Delos as a dolphin, which I always thought implied this was soon after he established Delphi, which was really early on. Idk something about a young Apollo accidentally revealing his godliness to this boy he really likes is just so sweet to me. And he makes Branchus into a prophet, which is so cool! These two are cutie-patooties is what I'm saying.

3. Apollo & Kyparissos

C'mon, the man died of grief because his deer died. Throughout ToA we learn that deep down Apollo is a mushy ball of emotions and compassion, and that convinced me that these two spent 75% of their relationship crying over baby animals and pretty people. I love the idea of Apollo dating someone who's honestly just as much of a loser as he is. And while it is sad that Kyparissos is another lover Apollo had to turn into a plant, I have to emphasize again that he died of heartbreak, because his pet deer died.

2. Apollo & Cyrene

Listen, these two are boss bitches and you cannot convince me otherwise. In the same way I like Kyparissos bc I feel like he and Apollo are so similar, I like Cyrene bc I feel like, in a lot of ways, these two are very different. Like, don't get me wrong, Apollo can be strong and wild when he wants to be, but Cyrene wrestles lions. I like to think the time these two spent together really helped each of them grow in their own way, which makes for a really fun and interesting relationship. Also, just like Thyia, Cyrene is sometimes referred to as a nymph, so she could still be out there!

1. Apollo & Admetus

The more I think about these two, the more I love them. Admetus meeting Apollo at his lowest and helping him through it. Apollo falling head over heels as a result and doing everything in his power to repay the man. The two of them still holding such strong affection for each other even decades after the time they had together, to the point that Apollo would mess with fate to extend Admetus' life. Apollo's life is full of turmoil, and this period of it was probably the worst, but despite that, his relationship with Admetus seems so steady. The other gods are said to be embarrassed of Apollo's love of Admetus, and I think it's because Apollo loved him in a way that went directly against the values of the gods. Apollo and Admetus' relationship was defined by service and care, filled with selfless intent and genuine love. While many gods give their lovers gifts and special favors, the idea of actually going into servitude for someone you love is as ungodly as you can get. Apollo spent time with Admetus, and he wasn't possessive of him, helping him to find a wife after their time together was through. I think this relationship is a great example of how Apollo, even in his lowest moments, is a genuine and caring person, and how that often separates him from the rest of his family. Also these two are just cute and they both love cows and they're cows in love.
