Official first part folks! No matter the iteration, Sun Wukong is the Monkey King. Whether it be normal monkeys, monkey yaoguai or both, he is the king. So this came in mind for this particular headcanon. It's mainly set in Sun Wukong's perspective so I hope it turns out good. Can be read gender neutral or preferred gender! Enjoy.
Sun Wukong curiosity had never been peaked so much for the entirety of his immortal life. Sure he seen all of sorts of wonders and indulged in its treasures. But none of them were like you.
It began with your strange contraption, a 'Duel Runner' you called it. And those monsters you brought to life from playing cards. The same type of card where you returned your device too.
For a mortal, you made this bizarre group even more stranger but in an appealing and manageable way. You didn't take shit from anyone, he wasn't an exception either. Threats filled with fire when certain lines were crossed.
The pig, Zhu Bajie didn't slack off so much under your watchful eye. You made a compromise that if he did some work each day, then you'll do his duties for the next. Never seen the flirt being so quick to work.
The group needed an negotiator as the monk wasn't the best at it. (Well more like his three yaoguai disciples go a bit overboard in their own ways.) Luckily you had the skills to do just that.
Negotiations were either peaceful or borderline threats depending on who you were talking too. The Monkey King really enjoyed the threatening ones as you brought your peculiar summons for extra assurance. (Especially when the one under threat soiled themselves.)
What made Sun Wukong the most curious is the smaller monsters that you brought out from time to time. Most barely reaching his true form's shoulders while a few were a bit taller or tiny to said form.
Some were mechanical, beasts of some kind, peculiar animals to even dragons. Tuner Monsters you called them and how you usually brought out the bigger more powerful 'Synchro' monsters. What was adorable is that you have nicknames for every one of them.
Amongst them all, you tend to summon one in particular. A small orange robot called Junk Synchron, one which affectionately named Tinker. To him, this strange creature is cute to say the least.
Always trying to assist in anyway he could. Tending the fire, gathering wood, or just try to provide moral support. Baldy definitely been more relaxed with the little 'warrior' around.
He did try to scare Tinker only for the machine to punch him in the face! "My little bud doesn't like scares. Not the first time he punched someone and it won't be the last." Duly noted. A decent punch though.
Speaking of you, these Tuners often flock around as if you were their ruler. Whether they were dragons, flying rabbits to even imps of all kind, love and affection were always shown.
Sun Wukong honestly chuckled at the thought. A pair of royalty in this makeshift disaster of a group. Who would've thought?
Maybe a courting ritual is in order. Your courteous reaction to his true form only solidified this thought further.
'Ruler of Tuners and Sage of Synchro'. Perfect title for the potential mate of the Monkey King, Great Sage Equal To Heaven: Sun Wukong.
It looks like the a certain stone monkey is thinking about courting Duelist Reader. He seems like the type to be invested in interesting individuals. *Looks at DSB*
Junk Synchron had been a big influence to the entire Synchro era, not just being a good card in general. Trust me when I say it's rare to come across a Synchro deck not running a Junk Synchron in some shape or form.
I believe the next headcanon might be the time where our Reader brings out their signature monster and takes the 'White Dragon Horse'.
Until next time folks, I'll see you back on the journey westward. Here is Junk Synchron!
“Starlight Junktion” contains a portmanteau of junk and junction. The “junction” part of the name may reference the card’s effect of exchanging Tuner Monsters for different Tuner Monsters, as a junction is where different roads meet.
