Shadowpeach AU, where Macaque was originally the guardian of the Immortal Peach Trees, and Wukong had to get past him in order to get an immortal peach...

But Past Wukong ISN'T as strong as Current Wukong, so Macaque keeps preventing him from getting a peach...

One day, Macaque mockingly bites a peach in front of Wukong...

Wukong suddenly has an idea; he kisses Macaque on the lips, to get the peach in Macaque's mouth...

Macaque was frozen, as Wukong smugly takes the peach from the stunned Macaque's hands...

But once Macaque unfreezes himself, he knocks Wukong out with a single punch...

Wukong wakes up, in love with Macaque! 😍

Oh fun!

The idea of a celestial realm dwelling macaque makes me think of @anxiescape's Celestial Bodies au, which is, in their own words, sleeping beauty with gay monkeys and war crimes, and their art is super pretty too! Their Macaque has galaxies in his fur!

As I was answering this, the idea of Macaque having been adopted by the Jade Emperor and Xiwangmu (Queen Mother of the West), popped into my head, so now the Jade Emperor's issue with Wukong isn't just that he's wrecking his shit, but he's flirting with his son and making a fool of him!

This idea just became a whole lot funnier.

This could have been a tragedy, it became a comedy. I might find a way to get some angst in here

Macaque works in the peach orchards with his sisters, sometimes the peach maidens are Xiwangmu's daughters, because he enjoys it and it's a natural habitat for a monkey like himself.

He was not expecting the new stable boy to be so brazenly bold as to kiss him, a celestial prince, as a ploy to steal from him! He punches Wukong in the face for it and hopes nobody saw that, it's so embarrassing.

Meanwhile Wukong is absolutely smitten with the guy who could knock him out like that and thinks he's super powerful and strong and pretty. So he keeps visiting Macaque specifically, he doesn't know that he's the Jade Emperor's adopted son, he just thinks he's pretty.

Macaque is super confused and annoyed, he's just trying to do what makes him happy and be a good son and this stupid cute monkey keeps getting in his way!

He confides in his big sister Iron Fan, she immediately clocks in that the other monkey has the hots for her little brother and is not a fan. She asks their cousin (Erlang) to keep an eye on Wukong just to make sure he doesn't do anything.

Erlang, who is also not a fan of this monkey with the hots for his cousin, completely understands.

So now Xiaotian Quǎn follows Wukong around whenever he's in heaven, giving his the upmost disapproving looks whenever he interacts with Macaque.

But then! Horror of horrors!

Macaque catches feelings for Wukong! And he wants to die, it's so embarrassing and unbecoming! And it'll never work out! Wukong isn't a celestial, and relationships between celestials and demons or mortals are forbidden!

Macaque is super easy to fluster now and any time Wukong shows up to talk with him he is a blushing mess and is not hiding his affections very well.

Luckily Wukong is as dense as the rock he hatched from, and doesn't get the hint.

Unfortunately, nobody else is and everyone thinks he's toying with the six eared prince's heart. This just makes the rest of Macaque's family like Wukong even less.

Wukong tells Macaque about his cool friends and how they are all about taking on the injustices of the heavens, (he hasn't done anything super destructive yet he's just been a nuisance).

Macaque challenges their ideas with the question of how they would fix it, and how much suffering their war would cause for the mortals, and does a former celestial like Azure really know better than the being who's spent millions of years keeping things balanced?

They are good questions.

Wukong is left doubting the brotherhood.

Man's gay crush is giving him second thoughts.

The Jade Emperor and Xiwangmu still don't really like Wukong because he's clearly got a thing for their son and they are protective parents to say the least.

Once Macaque admits his feelings to his family, and that he wants to date the most infamous"bad boy" in all three realms, well something like this happens:

Jade Emperor: Where do you think you're going, young man? Macaque: Wherever he'll take me. JE: I forbid you to go out with that hoodlum! Macaque: But Daddy, I love him! JE: Go to your room! Macaque: I don't even live here anymore! JE: Well, then, go to your old room that your mother turned into a scrapbooking room!

It's from a Looney toons episode, someone actually made a comic of a similar idea only LBD's the parent in that situation, it's so funny.

So Macaque is grounded now, JE and Xiwangmu have already lost at least two daughters to their lovers (their over reactions to the relationships are what really caused those tragedies but the royal couple doesn't want to admit that, @quitealotofsodapop has a lot more and better detailed ideas about this concept on their blog).

Good news for the brotherhood! Azure can turn this in their favor by making Wukong think the monkey he's in love with is being held prisoner by the Jade Emperor. He still doesn't know Macaque is his son, because macaque liked being around someone who didn't know that and never felt the need to tell him.

So Wukong is amped up to fight the Jade Emperor to rescue his crush/friend!

Meanwhile, Macaque is stuck in his room listening to the dumbass he fell head over heals in love with.

Will this end good? Bad? Who knows! Not even me!

I have ideas for a good and bad end, but I might put it to poll for the decision of what really happens.

Thanks for asking! This was a really fun one, hope you like it!

Definite proof of Wukong and Macaque’s relationship still kindling little by little, question is: Is it platonic or romantic?

Hope we know more in S6

💜🍑The LMK Fandom sometimes: "Wukong actually hates/doesn't care about Macaque!"💜🍑

Are... are we watching the same show?

What?!

Are...

Are you

Are you sure....?

I think these images speak for themselves.

But, still-

Wukong immediately becomes concerned for Macaque when he speaks up and says: "Here goes nothing, make it count." To which Wukong replied with a rough and confused: "WHAT?!" And then after, Macaque uses his shadows to set them all free- you would think that Wukong would rush off for MK first thing, because time is of the essence.

But no, he goes over to Macaque first to check in on him, and make sure he's okay. He us obviously very worried for his former best bud.

Wukong probably thinks Macaque really hurt himself overdoing it like that- but he can't stay. He has to go after MK. But the fact that Wukong STAYED, and his first instinct was to go aver to Macaque after it looked like he got hurt badly and ask him if he was okay- yeah.

He cares.

Wukong cares so deeply for Macaque.

If he truly didn't then why would he want Macaque to be standing with him at what they believe is the end of the cycle? Why would he smile at him like this? And then why would the smile get wider once Macaque starts reaching back?

I don't know how the fandom thinks Wukong doesn't care/hates Macaque, but it's not true in the least. Wukong cares and loves Macaque, either that be romantically/platonically/as friends/family or whatever.

It's obvious the King still loves his Warrior.

So again, people in the fandom who think Wukong hates/doesn't care about Macaque

Macaque’s Secret:

So it’s a commonly agreed upon headcanon within the fandom that Macaque is AFAB/FtM. Now what if I told you that there are details within the show, the sets, and twitter posts that hint to this idea being canon.

On their own these details don’t point to anything in particular, but when put together it paints a fairly clear picture.

Let’s begin:

- All of Macaque’s symbolism links to the Yin:

Darkness

The moon

Passiveness

The heart (strong emotions)

Evil (he is always referred to as the evil six eared macaque in the sets)

And most recently chaos

-Macaque is an extremely passive person (especially during his brotherhood days) he hardly ever reacts, speaks up, or defends himself, even when he does speak up if no one notices he’d back down. Even in modern day as he’s become far bolder, Macaque will avoid direct conflict as much as physically possible.

- Despite being the level headed one whenever Macaque does react or take action it’s always guided by strong emotions. These instances typically revolve around Wukong and MK. Whether it involves tormenting them or trying to protect/save them.

- His body language whenever he’s being sassy is stereotypically feminine:

Putting one hand on his hip

Crossing his arms behind his back while leaning forward

Leaning against others as if they were a wall

And during the attack on Ao Guan’s palace one of his shadow clones posed in the arrogant woman laugh

-In the show and in the sets (minus his first figure) Macaque has longer fluffier fur than Wukong.

- Alejandro Saab has confirmed that Macaque is shorter than Wukong (female macaques are typically smaller).

- Macaque clothes are noticeably baggy and (again minus the first set figure) is always covered up.

- The only time we see him wearing a form fitting outfit was his champion armor.

- The armor itself was designed to make him look like a queen when compared directly to Wukong’s King armor:

Same colors but different shades (yellow=gold, crimson=red, navy=cyan, gray=black).

Macaque’s armor is form fitting, while Wukong’s armor is loose.

Macaque has a noticeable hip curve while wearing this armor.

Wukong’s phoenix feather cap is meant to be a king’s crown, so Macaque’s cap which is just a hair pin with one phoenix feather would be a queen’s tiara by comparison.

-And considering LBD intentionally made the armor like this instead of giving him her color scheme like she did with the Mayor and Wukong, along with the fact that she can psychically link with anyone, it gives off the idea that when she revived him she found out about him being trans and designed the armor in a way to actively humiliate/threaten him, and maybe in a way dampen Wukong’s spirit with the fact that his “Queen” is her “Champion”. She has been shown on multiple occasions to be that petty.

- During the brotherhood flashback where they were preparing for battle Macaque became defensive when Wukong attempted to tighten his hip armor, likely because if it was tightened too much it would show off his hip curve.

-When Macaque disguises or draws himself he always makes himself appear overtly masculine:

The story boards for shadow play shows that Macaque’s beard was supposed to be long and bushy instead of neatly styled (the decision to change that detail was likely to save time during production).

Whenever he draws himself he always has bulging muscles. This only applies to him as we’ve seen in Wukong’s treasure room that he has a cutout of himself that was clearly drawn by Macaque that doesn’t have that detail, even in the video game he designed his character is the only one with bulging muscles.

- In the anniversary set only three villains have a hidden angry face those being Macaque, LBD, and Spider Queen. Essentially the only two female villains in the set along with Macaque. Now this detail wouldn’t mean much if not for the fact that Redson (who is still considered a villain in the sets) doesn’t have that hidden angry face.

-In the game that Macaque created for MK, the demon that MK kills appears male and has kidnapped a woman (typically demons will go after the opposite gender, whether it’s to eat or marry them), but after they’re killed it’s revealed that she was a woman.

- The person that Macaque takes the place of in relation to the JTTW brotherhood is the Spirit Macaque King, though they are also often known as the Female Macaque King or the Monkey Queen. This is because the mandarin word Mihou (Macaque) not only refers to the species, but can also be used to specifically refer to the female members of the species.

- Macaque’s voice has been shown to often change dramatically, during battle it becomes exceptionally deep, and becomes soft and silvery whenever he’s being vulnerable, which to me implies that he’s always using an auditory illusion to change his voice to a more masculine one.

- Whenever we see Wukong gift Macaque a peach it’s intact never bitten into (Gifting someone of the same sex a bitten into peach is symbolic of a same sex relationship).

- Wukong has been shown using feminine descriptors (softy and sweetie) with the brotherhood, this is likely so that if he slips up while talking to Macaque in their presence it goes unnoticed.

- With Wukong and Macaque both being beast type demons (the only difference between them and regular monkeys is their size and ability to talk) it’s likely that Wukong has known Macaque’s secret from the beginning and has kept it even after their falling out, out of respect.

- Despite all of Wukong’s subjects being clearly intelligent, we never see a single one of them being able to talk, so they likely never had to correct the way they addressed Macaque in the presence of others.

-To expand on that point after Macaque discovers that MK is a monkey he’s shown interacting with the little monkeys and is never bothered, except for the first one they find in the scroll, my guess is that the little monkey called Macaque something like Queen which meant that they revealed his secret, until Macaque reminded himself that MK doesn’t speak monkey.

Now many of you are probably asking what’s the point of secretly making Macaque trans. The answer is very simple, it’s a form of censorship to avoid international demonetization without having to drastically change the material, in order to one day officially canonize Shadowpeach in the show. The crew have already done something like this with Peng, who in the English version is AMAB Nonbinary and in the international versions and the sets is male. So something like this isn’t that far fetched. All they would have to do in the international versions once this is revealed is say that Macaque is passing as male (a woman pretending to be a man).

As for how I imagine the reveal, well it goes something like this:

After another victory over the season’s big world ending incident, the monkie gang are enjoying a meal at Pigsy’s.

When suddenly Macaque walks into the shop, everyone turns to greet him and are stunned silent at the sight of him.

Not only are his signature ears and scars visible, but he’s dressed in an outfit that, while very much his style, is obviously feminine.

Macaque takes a seat next to Wukong and greets everyone before making an order, and everyone (even Wukong) is stunned by his feminine voice.

(I envision Cynthia Cranz (the VA of Chichi in dragon ball) as Macaque’s feminine voice)

The silence is then broken by MK and Mei who are simultaneously bouncing off the walls in excitement and asking a million questions about this newly revealed secret.

While everyone else just looks on with comforting smiles at the fact that Macaque trusted them enough to reveal this fact about himself.

And when no one is looking Wukong gently wraps his tail around Macaque’s, who does the same in response.

Feel free to leave comments telling me what you think, just please remain polite in the comment section 😁

Random Shadowpeach Idea:

Wukong found a shirt that says: "I simp for the Moon!"

He wears it to fluster and mess with Macaque! 🌙

I'm sorry to butcher your prompt like that but this is all i could think of 😭✋

wukong did not know what a simp was before that mans got betrayed hard

[tay-mbt]

LOOK AT THIS ART!! IS AMAZING!!!

This person is making me watch +5 hours of gameplay and lore to be able to understand, so I appreciate it twice as much xD

Warning: Blood Alert

Signalis x Shadowpeach

Signalis has become one of my favorite videogames! so… what better way to show it than with some doodles! if you're wondering about the next and last part of Actors, don't worry it's cooking :D

[beanyboobee]

IM BACK IN THE FUCKING BUILDING AGAIN OH MYYYY GODDD

A friend dragged me back to LMK so I offer you all a quick animatic.

Context: Wukong has been gone way to long and with no ruler over flower fruit mountain demons are getting impotent and want the territory for themselves Macaque can't single handedly fight every damn clan. So his compromise is if someone can lift wukongs staff and beat him in a fight. The the territory is there's and he will be their warrior . After Al who wouldn't want someone who can hear the future on their team?

[slinknoxx]

I don't like this one as much but cute none the less

[dynamicsimp]

I was gonna do this for the Shadowpeach bio parents AU takeover but uhhh I chickened out. But here y'all go though. Took awhile to get that 90's anime vibe on Ibis paint.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

WEDDING TIME!!! THEY ARE FINALLY HOUSBANDOSSSS!!!!!

wdym they were already engaged this whole time?? Poor Wukong he wont staying a SECOND more without marrying to his monkey. I think 2000+ years of engagement are more than enough for them.

Also finally it’s Wukong’s turn to break the door!

Shadowpeach Bio Parents AU - The End Credits (PREV/ FIRST / )

Final part is coming on March 25th, 1PM ET

So yeah basically the night before the whole fiasco with the brotherhood, these 2 idiots might have drunk a little too much and Las Vegased during the night by exchanging their scarfs as an engagement gift (which then used to make the handfasting robes in the last slide) after Mac shared his worried with wukong about their plan. He was too dumb of ass for Mac to say no to that face.

[violetjedisylveon]

Shadowpeach AU, where everything is the same, except Possessed Wukong is super possessive over Macaque...

Macaque: (tries to fight Wukong)

Possessed Wukong: (quickly stops fighting, when he sees Macaque)

Macaque: Uhh, aren't you gonna fight?

Wukong: (pins Macaque to the ground) ... Mine.

Wukong: (roughly kisses Macaque)

Macaque: (pushes Wukong off, then runs + Wukong chases him) 💙

Naturally, Wukong catches him and

LBD does not approve.
