l drew @angelcake10023 Cicada!Tang design (this is a WIP)
HC Baby Red Son is scared of Tripitaka bc I believe babies can see stuff adults can't so he can see he's the Golden Cicada
"Ther is a lake ahead we can set up there for lunch " Wukong mentioned to the others Zhu Bajie huffed "could you cool you fireworks we ain't runnin' got that wonder boy". Wukong ground "But I'm hungryyyyyyyy" Ao lie giggled "Bajie's right the lake isn't going any where and we got nothing but time" the pig grind "Thank you". Sha wujing chimed in "I am getting a little hungry two so we should pick up the piece." "We aren't running we aren'tthat far from if anyway." Tripitaka spoke sternly to them "Alright no running." Wukong said.
When they got there they we separated to te a man sitting under a tree's shad eating some food. The group pays him no mind and continues unpacking for ther break "If it's not to much to ask are you lot headed west?" The older man questioned Tripitaka looked to the man and nodded "We are." Wukong's head snapped to the man he passes his true site vision on the man and then he relaxes he was no threat. "Then I suppose we can travel together me and my son are vendors and we are heading back home he's a very skilled fiber and good strategist." the man said that last part with pride. "I'm not that great i just try to keep u from getting lost and eaten by some random demon." A nother voice is heard this one smooth as silk and sweeter than sugar filled with a teasing and playful tone.
The gang looked up at the tree to find a figure resting on one of it's branches. He wore a black liangmao on is head an a mask to cover his face, hair tide dack in a loose ponytail, under is scarf he wore a dachang. He hoped off the tree and sat next to hi father. The man smiled "I suppose we should introduce ourselves I'm Shan gou and this is my son Gequ Baoshi."Baoshi slightly baud slightly to them "You can call me Mihou if you prefer." Tripitaka smiled gently to them "It's a pleasure meeting you both." Wukong was silent taking in the site of Shan's son he blinkes back to reality almost immediately and continues eating tring to push out this strateg fuzzy feeling in his chest. He'll deal with it later right now food.
What he didn't realize is that someone was paying attention. A mischievous grin placed its self on Ao lie's face. Unfortunately for Wukong he didn't notice the slight tint of pink on his cheeks. Things were going to getting interesting and Ao lie can wait to see where it goes.
hope yall like it <3
Lego Monkie Kid Rewatch: Season 3
Episode 10, Samadhi Fire Part 1/2
Just a warning, I do talk about season 5 for a moment, but I'll try to keep it labeled and separate so you can easily skip over it without getting spoiled if you want.
Now that I know a bit of the Journey to the West, I have only just realised how impossible it would be for the pilgrims to be here helping baby Red Son.
No way could this rage baby Red Son have thought up clever scheams to catch and eat Tang Sanzang the way JTTW Red Son did. Not to mention at the end JTTW Red Son ended up going to Guanyin's villain reform program.
On the other hand, I don't believe the sealing of Samadhi Fire would have happened before the journey. Wukong is clearly wearing his post-pilgrimage get up and the pilgrims all act like they know each other.
All of this to say, just how many differences are there between the show's journey and the novel's.
Then again, the fact that Iron Fan and Bull King are still in love and married should have been the first tip off for me.
Season 5 Spoiler Talk
I am curious, are all of these differences a result to Nine-Headed Demon's interference? What the heck did the guy have to do to insure Red Son would be born late enough to be baby during Tang Sanzang's life time? Is the Nine-Headed Demon responsible for the Samahdi fire being so out of control in a young Red Son? In JTTW, Red Son still wields it and has great control over it.
"For the Samahdi fire to be split in three, you must harmonise you're energies!"
These three? Harmonise? A hard headed demon king, a sentient rock monkey, and a duty bound celestial ex-mortal? Sanzang was basically asking for failure here.
Wukong: 'Psssh, this is easy.'
Also Wukong:
Ao Lie just took a blow for Sanzang!
The notorious, lets everything go to chaos in a box around him while continues to be horse actually stepped up and took action. Now I know for sure this is post-pilgrimage! Character development!
Reprimands in sarcasm and bonks heads when annoyed.
Brother coded, brother coded, brother coded, brother coded
"Alright, you win."
In the last episode when Tang said this it was more from Macaque's perspective and thus Tang sounded desperate and hopeless. He really seemed like he'd given up.
Now, thanks to these three shotsโฆ everything feels different. Same lines, same delivery. But now I believe Tang isn't giving up. He's got a plan!
I have not talked enough about the sound design in this show! I love the sounds they use for magic. I'm pretty sure that each magic user plus each different power their unique chime/gong! Examples:
Tang's has a very clear and simple ring.
Ne Zha's sounds like fairy twinkle lights, all light, airy, and chimey.
Wukong main magic is like a bamboo thunking against a stone, or a a small stone creating ripples in a pond. Wish I knew what made this sound. I have been conditioned to be hyped every time I hear it.
Interestingly, MK's magic sounds the same. I believe this is what further fed into the belief that Wukong had gifted MK his magic instead of it coming from the kid. The shows own little misdirection!
But really, I think the reason for the similarity in their magic, both ability and sound, stems from them both being made by Nuwa as celestial stone monkeys.
The whole reason I thought to bring it up was this transition. We go from a third person perspective to looking through Wukong's eyes. and the first thing to clue us in that this is happening is the sound of Wukong's gold vision activating before suddenly the image blinks gold and we find ourselves zooming out of Wukong's eyes as he watches the scene from far away.
The way they did this was such a cool transition as well as an awesome example of how the golden vision works! Superman, you wish you're eye powers were this cool!
"Let's hope my aim is as good as it used to be."
AKA: "If I skewer you, it's totally because I missed and not because I'm still angry at you and taking petty revenge."
Red, blue, green. Long ago, the three Samadhi Fires were separated and the great destruction was extinguished.
Only when the three colors are found again can they unite and create- PINK FIRE!
Wai- what? That's not how color theory works. How did I never notice before? The full might of the Samadhi Fire is pink.
Love the shattered chains, and the washing away of the blue aura to symbolize LBD's hold over him being broken.
"Someone get some water!"
I'm surprised he didn't throw snow at her. Its right there.
Anyone else think it's really cool that Wukong can just pull Macaque out of his shadows?
Like, no one else has been able to do that!
Ah, so Tang didn't have a plan. He just did it because it felt right. shakes my head Oh Tang, and for a moment I thought you were competent.
Seriously though, I am now forever scarred by the word destiny. I hate it.
"I hate to interrupt, but can someone explain what is going on!"
No please interrupt. We need you MK! You're the only one who could possible salvage this situation. Everybody else just keeps making it worse!
Macaque- ignoring the child in fiery pain to celebrate his freedom.
Wukong- lashing out at the closest person marginally at fault (that isn't him).
Ne Zha- voice of doom declaring the girl and world as a lost cause.
Tang- DESTINY
Like, great job everyone. Way to solve your problems.
Day 11 of posting random LMK screenshots to convince people to watch it,

A single dad/teacher to the most insufferable people alive how he didn't go insane is a mystery to me
anyway I love him and I really hope we get more flashbacks of him in lmk
Whenever people talk about Macaque and Wukongs fight, everyone conveniently forgets that the whole reason they fought in the first place was because Macaque was a sneaky little bastard that tried to take Wukongโs place in the group of companions and then tried to hurt/kill Tripataka/Tang Sanchang. And then they try to make Wukong the one in the wrong. I dislike that this fact is like, NEVER addressed in the LMK storyline. Itโs just Macaque continuing to bring up Wukong leaving him when the dude did it because 1, a goddess told him to, and 2 so that he could become a better person.
