HEY HEY HEY SEASON 4 THEORY HERE!!!!!

IN EPISODE ONE WHEN THE SCROLL DOES ITS SPOOKY INK THING AND GOES THROUGH THE DIFFERENT PEOPLE WUKONG WRONGED IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, IN THE ENGLISH DUB WE HEAR MACAQUE'S VOICE SAY "YOU'RE NOTHING". EXCEPT HERE'S THE THING: HE NEVER SAID THAT TO WUKONG THAT WE KNOW OF. THE ONLY TIME HE SAID IT, IN THAT TONE IN PARTICULAR, IS TO MK!

"Or what? You aren't the Monkie Kid anymore! Your powers are gone. Your staff's gone. You're nothing."

HERE'S MY THEORY. WHAT IF WHEN THE SCROLL OPENED UP, BECAUSE IT WAS BEING HELD BY MK BUT WUKONG HAPPENED TO BE THERE AS WELL, IT SHOWED THEM BOTH THE THINGS THEY REGRET?!?!? BOTH THEIR PAINFUL MEMORIES?

THINK ABOUT IT. THAT SPECIFIC LINE WITH MACAQUE WOULDN'T MAKE SENSE OTHERWISE. I ALSO FIND IT INTERESTING THAT THE SPIDER QUEEN SHOWED UP IN THE INK AS WELL, AND THEN INK MK TAKES ON SOME SPIDER FEATURES WHEN HE IS FIGHTING REAL MK.

Obviously there's some sort of history between the Queen and Wukong as well, however that wasn't explored in the episodes she was in/the New Year's special. The last time MK saw the Queen was when she told him to run.

MK feels such immense guilt for not saving her that she manifested as a painful part of the scroll's curse.

My mom: *sees me hard at work crafting and not talking to anyone just spacing out with my headphones in* wow I wonder what's got him so quiet?

Me: *thinking about tired MK. MK who has had enough of everything. MK who ever since the spider Queen has felt like a weapon, like if he stops training or doing ANYTHING then everything will fall apart. MK who has tried everything under the sun to feel better and cope but no one understands--not truly. Not enough that the burden of being the hero gets any lighter. Even working alongside Mei, his best friend in the whole world, he feels the need to be the leader, because as great as she is she doesn't have his powers. MK who, ever since the Lady Bone Demon, has a bittersweet relationship with the Monkey King, to the point where he can't look him in the eyes anymore because when he does it just hurts. MK who, as soon as he gets the perfect chance, goes to see macaque to see if MAYBE he has some advice, though deep down he's just worried he'll be tricked again.

Macaque is intrigued at the kid's sudden lack of energy and how everything about his energy just seems darker. Still, Macaque tells his true opinion to the kid when MK asks about the Monkey King. He's just Wukong, just a lazy immortal who only ever disregards others. And when the kid leaves with an odd sag in his shoulders he can't help but feel worried for him, even if he tries to deny actually caring about him.

MK who goes off on his own without telling anyone. MK who stops by Redson's house to ask if he knows any good demonic runes or something to make it so people can't find him. MK who disappears for a fairly long period of time and no one can get a hold of him because even though Redson thought it was a strange thing to ask for, he still complied because it was worse having to look at MK's oddly sad face.

MK who gets used to being alone. MK who never settles down, is always on the move in between different cities and towns, and he has no idea why but there's always some sort of half assed care package waiting for him by his bag in the morning, and along with it a poorly drawn doodle of him. On his birthday, there's a full note, signed by all his friends, even Macaque, not asking him why he left, but just asking him to come home safely.

MK, who, after a full year away from home, makes the trip back. He's happy to see that the city hasn't fallen apart without him, happy that he won't have to clean up a mess.

MK, who walks into Pigsy's and feels a lump in his throat when he smells his favorite recipe being cooked. Pigsy, who just about jumps over the counter to embrace his son, Tang joining in, and as if she could sense it, Mei appears too and causes the three of them to collapse onto the ground as she throws herself into them.

MK, breaking down into sobs without any words as he allows himself to be loved. The Monkey King, who goes to MK instead of the other way around, very patiently waiting his turn to speak to him because he knows this is a lot for anyone who missed the kid. Macaque showing up as well alongside Redson and both will still deny how much they care for him but they don't even try to mask their relief at seeing him safe and in one piece as he sits down to eat a proper meal.

MK, who goes to sleep that night in his childhood bedroom at Pigsy's place instead of his apartment because they both need the reassurance that the other is there.

MK, who feels refreshed after finally getting a break from everything.
