Ok I'm gonna admit this: I low key ship MK and Zihao. I know it’s crackship but I think they make for a cute extrovert couple
Heheee might not be as much of a crack ship as you think, im having a lot of fun thinking about the various Zodiac kids thoughts and feelings toward Mk will evolve over the story and i think youll enjoy them
Ok so I was reading a couple of @quitealotofsodapop old posts and I remembered in one of your old you mention that the difference between demons and divine beings was where or not they were doing something the Heavenly Court finds objectionable. This made a thought come to mind, what that line is blurred even more. Specifically what if the celestials also have animal forms or traits. I remember in JTTW when the pilgrims fought a scorpion demoness a Celestial (Star Lord Mao) helped them transformed into his true form which is a chicken/rooster. And after another mission they meet a river god who takes the form of a turtle (or was possible a turtle owned a river but you get the point), that asked the pilgrims if they could asked the Buddha if he had any tips that could allow him to take a human form. Along with that we also know that some deities are associated with specific animals, like the Queen Mother of the West being associated with tigers and Nezha associated with snakes.
So basically what if most celestials or at least the ones in the Heavenly Court, do have animal forms but take on human forms and largely hide there animal traits, and look down on spirits that either can't take human forms or choose not to (adding a bit hypocrisy them).
And while I know this is not canon to For the Hand of the Monkie Prince, I like to imagine that another reason the other Celestials don't like the zodiac is because they choose to not take human forms to keep some connection to their roots. And while the Jade Emperor was fine with this, many others weren't.
Just wanna make this clear this isn't really a suggestion/recommendation for the au, this is just a thought I had that I wanted to share since I thought it was fun.
I mean yeah, based on the casual knowledge ive gleaned from JTTW and the various adaptations and people like Quitealotofsodapop, alot of the heavely officials were animals who were raised to divine status and took on Human form. Qaosp themself has even Mentioned the Jade Emporer being a frog and the Queen Mother being a Tiger or other big cat.
The preference for human form is probably tied to the general themes of the asian philosophies and religions that inspired the story, particularly Buddhism of course, where bring human is the form where you have the best chance at enlightenment.
I imagine in the Heavenly court that a lot of the older officials did start out as animals but as te has gone on a lot have either just been born divine or were raised to divinity from humanity. Which i believe applies to characters like Nezha and his family in some versions of their stories.
The Zodiac are an interesting case because they probably could take human form if they wanted, but because their role in the heavens is so tied to their true nature as animals they dont, except perhaps temporarily for disguise or discresion while in the mortal world.
The Jade emporer never saw this as a problem because again, The Zodiac being animals is important for their role in the heavens. He chose them from among all of earths creatures, so in his eyes they had already proven themselves worthy of respect and authority.
But the ever growing number of heavenly officials who were either human in life or born divine look down of them for choosing to remain as "lesser beings"
I tried to do the genderbend thing :’|
Frankenstein AU where the Creature, upon returning to seek terrible vengeance on Victor after realizing the tragic existence he's been forced into, takes a few days extra to actually, you know, observe Victor and see what he's like, to learn how best to enact his revenge. And he comes to the conclusion that, "Actually, I don't need to do anything, this idiot's going to ruin his own life without any outside interference, and I kinda wanna see how he does it."
Victor then proceeds to continue with his previously demonstrated levels of making good life choices, while now also constantly looking over his shoulder for his Creation and having the vapors at every little thing because oh noes, it's The Monster come back to Get Him-!!!
The Creature: (watching all this unfold through binoculars like it's a soap opera while sneaking in to help himself to Victor's larder and library when he feels like it, and also occasionally hiding small but vital objects, like Victor's keys or shaving blade, in weird spots in the house) Wow, it really does take an incredibly smart man to be quite this stupid, doesn't it?
At one point, Victor finally starts to unwind and relax a bit, has a string of good luck, looks like he might actually be at risk of Getting His Shit Together. So that year the Creature sends him a birthday present - a bible with 'To my father from his beloved son' inscribed on the inside and 'Your me!' written next to a little arrow pointing at the first use of the name 'Adam' in the text.
He does nothing else, just sits back and lets the carnage unfold as Victor proceeds to regress into full-on post-Creature-creation breakdown and no one else knows what the fuck's going on, because he refuses to tell them, because No One Can Know My Terrible Deed, even though he's certain They All Suspect.
They Do Not, in fact, Suspect, the actual main theory is that he just fucked around in a normal manner for Young Aristocracy of Standing in the era and now some no-better-than-she-should-be chit is trying to shame him for knocking her up.
Another running theory is that Victor actually sent the bible to himself in an attempt to become more interesting again, because he's cringefail like that and can't stand the idea of not being seen as interesting or special.
The Creature is drinking hard lemonade and having a jolly old time watching the proceedings. He's got a 'when do I get to meet step-mother?' letter all planned out for next time Victor seems to be at risk of becoming chill, and, while still lonely as hell, is definitely enjoying this much more than the murder spree he initially had planned.
@someoddmix #adam frankenstein engages in psychological warfare against his creator and has A Great Time #because Victor is pretty good at psychologically torturing himself lol #MEET STEP-MOTHER LMAOOO
Psychologically torturing Victor is great, because it's basically revenge on easy mode. This is the revenge equivalent of one of those mobile games that plays itself for you, and all you need to do is let it run in the background and check in for daily log-in bonuses.
Also, because people have always been people, eternal loneliness is sad, and probability means he's bound to luck out eventually, I'mma be kind and say that at some point in all this, Adam gets caught sneaking food in the kitchen by one of the maids who's also an old maid (so you know, like... early thirties). And he's frozen in place, because Oh No, this is generally When The Screaming Starts, and she's also frozen in place, because she's experiencing an Awakening (because people have always been people and if tumblr existed back then this woman would have three accounts and a The Shape of Water poster).
Then she notices that Adam's got like... half a loaf of yesterday's bread, a couple of apples, and one of Master Frankenstein's scientific journal-type books, and asks, "Wait, are you the reason Master Frankenstein thinks someone's out to get him?"
Adam: ...yes?
Maid: Well done you, then, he's insufferable. Here, let me get you some ham to go with all that, a big, strapping fellow like you needs some proper meat in his diet if he wants to keep his health.
Adam has never encountered this sort of reaction before and doesn't quite know how to handle it. Thus he ends up just standing there silently as she bustles around, gets a basket and puts his bread and apples in it, adds ham and some cheese and a nice jar of pickles ("You'll need to bring the jar back when you're done with them, though, jars don't grow on trees, you know"!"). By the end of it, she's introduced herself as Gytha, and he's introduced himself as Adam for want of having any other name, and he's somehow agreed to meet her in a specific clearing in the woods not far from the house on her next day off so he can tell her what his (she (accurately) presumes to be extremely justified) deal with Victor is.
Gytha has gained one (1) life-long devotee who has never before experienced the warmth of human kindness like this.
Adam has gained one (1) co-conspirator on the inside.
Victor is about to lose ten (10) more years off of his ever-dwindling lifespan.
Life is good.
@baggebythesea #Gytha deserves a little bit of Adam. As a treat
Gytha: (staring up at Adam, all eight canonical feet of him, formed with the intent he be a physically perfect specimen, only then he actually got brought to life and now he's got kinda yellowy-transluscent skin and weird eyes that are also yellowy, and is frankly considered by most to be very uncomfortable to look at)
Gytha: ...
Gytha: ...Gytha deserves a lottle bit of Adam as a treat...
She is also of the mindset, "Well, I've already spent a most considerable amount of time with him completely unchaperoned, enough to be a thoroughly ruined woman by this point. Therefore I see no reason not to show him my ankles and let things progress as they will."
Things take awhile to progress, mostly because Adam has an understandably difficult time just internalizing the fact that not only is Gytha willing to spend time in his presence, she actively enjoys his company. That she may wish to commit sins of the flesh with him due to finding him genuinely desirable is too anathema to all he has ever experienced for him to even consider. But progress they eventually do, because Gytha's no quitter, and they progress to a most definitively mutual pleasure at that!
(Father Thomas over at the church had been under the impression he'd weathered the worst of what life/Gytha had to throw at him by the time she was twenty-five and that he mostly had how to handle her visits under control by now. He was Very Wrong, and not only that he's having to deal with it while young Master Frankenstein is having yet another continuous crisis of everything.)

She looks kind of drunk
Not sure about anyone else, but I re-read all my favourite AO3 comments when I’ve had a rough day, so if you’ve ever taken the time to write a deep, funny, or just kind comment, thank-you.

Hai!! Past Soysauce duo doodles for my lmk Out of Orbit au!! Some of the shenanigans the two get up to whenever Wukong puts Macaque on babysitting duty SHSHS
I noticed I haven’t drawn much of the soysauce duo in this au, and considering Macaque is a pretty important character in it (being MK’s uncle and all), I figured I would draw them!! ^_^
I'm done looking at this / vibes
What's the fic you would write if you had the energy for it? Ambitious, complex, novel-length—the fanfic you'd make if you could.
Ive got a couple.
Ones a Gundam wing and batman crossover.
Ones a Tmnt2012 and Rotmnt crossover, cause if you want something done right you have to do it yourself.
Ive also toyed with writing my own fan season for lego monkie kid.
