Shit to look at and laugh about

Hot take:

ship wars shouldn’t exist. All ships of any fandom should be ok (unless is a proship or illegal or morally wrong.)

I genuinely feel like macaque would be taller than Wukong. Wukong is often depicted as a "common monkey," which is typically either a squirrel monkey or a spider monkey in media. Given how he is drawn and animated in most media, and considering a macaque is, well, a macaque. and mcaques are naturally bigger and heavier than both said types of monkeys.

[monkeyclouds]

Do I have some news for you. Wukong’s canonical book height compared to the largest macaque species (and some others as well).

In the book, Wukong is also described has having pouches like macaques. A lot of media depicts him with macaque characteristics as well. Especially the Wukongs with the little points at the top of their heads — That is specific to the crab-eating macaque lol. He’s usually depicted in art as a rhesus macaque though.

[hamburger-whopper]

really? thanks for the info! I've only really seen media of him being a squirrel and spider monkey! this was really interesting to find out! TY!

[monkeyclouds]

You’re welcome!

There is a LOT of content out there. The book is 500 years old, but it was told in oral tales well before that. Oral stories tend to have many many many different versions. We can find evidence in surviving scrips of plays. One such play has Erlang be one of the pilgrims instead of Pigsy. There are plays where Wukong says he has siblings, comtimes he is a sibling of five and in others he is a sibling of eleven. There’s even a character in India called Hanuman who is very similar to Wukong. They might of been inspired by each other, which is really freaking cool!

The oldest depiction of Wukong on the journey is in a murial, where he actually has what looks to be long hair or a fur of some sort.

With the book being 500 years old and the story being older than that, a lot of people have taken inspiration from it. There are many retellings and people making their own versions of the story. It’s been adapted into every media you can think of. Movies, series, books, graphic novels, comic books, plays, etc. There’s so much to explore!

I hope with this image that I didn’t discourage you from headcanoning Macaque as taller than Wukong. There are plenty of people who take the story/characters and make their own personal touches to it. It’s why stories just like this one has lasted so long, because they evolved over time with people’s different perspectives of it. It’s awesome!

[hamburger-whopper]

not at all! i found this genuinly amazing to find out!

MORRO MY BABY- i feel like bro died the most painful ass death ever-

[hamburger-whopper]

ok but....Echo is a brat- like before the ninja knew about him and morro he would totally sneak out and see him in a stinky old allyway, zane would find out, ground him, and echo would be like "nuh-uh your my brother not my dad!" and zane would be like "as long as you live under my roof" and echo would retaliate in the most smartass way like "its master wus roof not yours"....eventually zane would come around but still he would try and choke morro (and fail because zane thats a fucking ghost you dumbass)

[hamburger-whopper]

uh oh- GET THE TAZER ZANE TOOK OFF HIS SKIN AGAIN-

[hamburger-whopper]

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE SAY "Mr. E is Echo Zane" BECAUSE HE ISNT!!! the idea that echo is Mr E was scrapped and it has been confirmed that echo and mr E are separate characters, creators thougt the storyline would be to complex and decided against it. (also this is not hate against anyone who makes aus about echo being E i just dont like when people say that it was cannon in the actual show)

[hamburger-whopper]

ECHO MY BELOVED-

no but like echo is so forgotten, more forgotten then pixal and skylor, heck i see more vinny contant than echo!

my baby deserves more-

also i feel echo would have zanes hair from s1 while zane changes his and yes this does mean i give zane flatter hair in s1 m Sorry i cant with the rectangle-

also zane is an overprotective big brother for echo trust

[hamburger-whopper]

the scrimblies-

Also, I feel Jay would have heterochromia, and yes, I gave Zane a ponytail hate on me if you must, but HE LOOKS CUTE DAMNIT-

[hamburger-whopper]

ok....so about that "other ninja merging with their elements".....

COLE!!!! <3

i gave him a more earthy tree-like apparence to break away from the 'rock ninja' thing....because hes the EARTH NINJA....he controls everything organic (somewhat)

[hamburger-whopper]

ok so ive been thinking of making his hair mud to better fit the shape of dreadlocks- but the treebark is staying to the sake of design!!!

[dontfindmeimscared]

I’ve got a free night tomorrow so drop any of your favourite aus (or your own aus!) and I’ll draw em tomorrow >:)

[hamburger-whopper]

this is mikey from my own tmnt story, he is a sea turtle and also his shell is more flat to his back as i went more realistic for him and his brothers on what a humanoid turtle would look like, draw him if you want! <3

[hamburger-whopper]

ok....so about that "other ninja merging with their elements".....

COLE!!!! <3

explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like “male”, “female”, “nonbinary”, “masculine”, “feminine” or “androgynous”.

go!

[hamburger-whopper]

i was born with genitalia that goes inward

[hamburger-whopper]

ok so, what i hate about ninjago the most is the fact cole is only given the power to control rocks.....dude hes EARTH ninja not the rock ninja- like, rock isnt the only part of earth, and coles powers are connected to earth and the ground in general meaning he should be able to control other natural stuff like dirt, stone, clay, maybe even ores if you wanna go that far- but like, dude, EARTH NINJA NOT ROCK NINJA FOR FUCKS SAKE-

gives my mans the justice he deserves his mama didnt die for nothin'-

[hamburger-whopper]

so ive been thinking, and if nya can merge with the sea, does that mean the other ninja can merge with their own elements? like its heavily implied that the other ninja could if they really wanted to-

like kai could merge with fire

jay could become lightning itself

zane merging with ice reminds me to much of the ice emperor tbh-

lloyd i feel like already merged with energy and shit bc of that "final battle" is S2......that shi was not no final battle-

and probably my favorite is the idea of cole merging with earth itself, not just rocks, bc thats not his element, his element is EARTH AS A WHOLE.....i feel thats looked over a lot-

[hamburger-whopper]

ok so....can someone wright a fanfic of this please????? ive been searching for one since i was 11 and just...PLEASE I SUCK A WRITING-
