I recently saw this tiktok with an audio that was like 'I could've patented him, I could've made sure he was ok' I'm pretty sure it was a about the grinch or something but that made me think of Wukong and MK.
Like, I bet he was so disappointed when he realized that there was another celestial monkey in the world and he didn't know.
Wukong knows that Pigsy and Tang raised him well, bit he can't help that little voice at the back of his head saying that he should've done more for this cub who was left alone in the world.
i think he was drawn to mk n the beginning bc mk's a stone monkey and his magic or his aura just...felt right. and then he starts getting attached to the kid and now he learned that this sweet kid he has grown to love as his own is just like him?
that thier actually connected? that he hasnt only failed Xiaotian as the monkie kid but from the moment he was born.
which of course. he didnt. he had no way of knowing mk was born he should have known. he had no way of finding mk he should have tried. he never knew the kid existed. he should have been there.
how could he have done anything?
he should have done something
