Villain Backstory - Tumblr Posts

Ah, look at me. Making a backstory for a villain.

If you’ve been following me for a while now, you know that I don’t like the thought of a villain being well….a villain, for no reason. So obviously, I made one.

I kind of made this backstory/headcanon/theory thing?

……..

Basically, in her past, everyone kept comparing her to another girl, who had the same name, but different pronunciations.

She was better than her with everything, not only that, but she was a bit of a bully.

And people constantly messed up their names with who is who.

So that’s why she doesn’t like people mispronouncing her name.

I know that this won’t become canon, not even close. Because from what I understand about this show so far, is that it doesn’t have an actual story, so we probably won’t get a story from this character? (That’s probably why I’m not a big fan of this show-)

Anyways, I’m done talking my nonsense-

I made up a Backstory for Lady Bone Demon

I think we all knew I would get to this point some day.

In Jttw, demons are typically animals brought back as demons, for example the Black Wind Demon, a bear. As a human skeleton demon, it’s incredibly likely that LBD was a human before she came back as a demon.

With this in mind, how did she die? LBD despises war, pain and famine of all kind, so I assume she might have died on a war front and, while I don’t think she retained memories from her life as a human, she still subconsciously hated wars.

Her body when she was the ivory lady was probably her own body, which she woke up inside of because it’s technically her corpse. The demon itself is within her skeleton, but that doesn’t mean her old body can’t be an accessory 🥳 fashion first, get ya look right

She just randomly woke up on one of those carts with all the corpses on it and was hella confused

So I feel like as a demon, she kind of became some Good Samaritan, since she looked human everyone was just cool with it. She was a seamstress and you can’t convince me otherwise. She would fashion clothes for the homeless and give fruits to travelers coming through whichever town she found herself in.

I mean she’s a little older than SWK at this point I feel like, she’s doing nice things to hold onto her sanity at the sight of the world crumbling and rebuilding itself again and again and again in a ruthless cycle 🧡

In JTTW, she was 110% just trying to poison Tripitaka and the gang so that she could eat him, but I need something to reinforce her hatred and lack of faith in the world so we’re switching that up a little.

She’s just doing her thing, giving fruits and vegetables from her garden (bc she has a damn garden. She’s giving garden.) to every traveler passing by and the monk and the boys happen to be one of them.

At this point she’s grateful to them because what they’re doing could help end a lot of conflicts and she doesn’t like conflicts 🥰

Wukong recognizes her as a demon and kind of misunderstands, thinking she’s trying to poison them.

So yeah he responds with violence.

Yeah so that was how she discovered she could take her mfing skin off when she had to wiggle out of it to save herself from being pummeled into bone cartilage

you best believe SWK got his ass kicked out of the group for beating up some random ass lady who he absolutely convinced was trying to kill them 💀

but dw they let him back in when they needed protection from the yellow something demon

They buried her damn corpse so she had to go underground to get back inside it, and then dig her way out of the grave.

And the night after all that is the first time she has ✨ the dream ✨

Where she sees herself destroying the world.

She brushes that off as just a nightmare yet, but then she starts having different bad dreams, of things like plagues and wars and you know… people dying

And damn, those start COMING TRUE??

She tries her best to change them, but nothings working??

Ooh, here’s an idea! What if she becomes and advisor and guides their emperor into being a better person?

HOO BOY DOES THAT MAKE THINGS WORSE

The emperor is the worst, why 💀 She becomes besties with the mayor, at the point the war chief, who the emperor just loves to overwork the hell out of

And she’s constantly getting precognitive dreams and changing them has proven to be impossible so that sucks

And I feel like she’s just on the last threads of her sanity when that one dream she had where she destroyed says “hey what if you just killed them all” in her sleep

And then BOOM

They’re in the middle of a crisis the very next day. She’s 100% prepared to ignore that dream because she’s still in the “the future is what you make it” phase but then as she’s talking to the emperor about handing the crisis, just imagine him doing the cruelest possible thing in that situation and that’s what he did bc i can’t think of anything

And that’s it, that is IT

This goofy mf is dead. His ass is grass.

And then she’s like “y’know what. I have tried to fix the world and these dreams have just been constantly telling me that it can’t be fixed. Let’s torch the earth, screw the environment”

But then Tripitaka and the boys come together to stop her 😒

So she peeps Macaque’s decaying corpse and decides he has some potential

SHE WAS WRONG

I assume in that box, her destiny talk was just her way of not losing her shit trying to get out

“Yup, this is all for destiny. I’ma get out of her one day, I’m a survivor, I’m not gon give up”

Every second spent being pissed at Macaque’s goofy ass

I imagine she was super nice to him fr, she was looking for FRIENDS but his trust issues really said “stop ✋🏽 You violated the law”

Presumably, her body rotted away when she was locked up because she was IN IT when she was first imprisoned, but when she was freed there was nothing but bones?? 🤨

And now she’s gotten free and

She is not very happy 🧡

because like Tripitaka said “I’m locking you up until you learn the error of your ways” because he saw that her intentions were good, but like

you know damn well he wasn’t actually gonna free her. There would have been better ways of changing her mind then locking her away and you know it 💀

what were you gonna do fr fr just show up every now and again to check on her and then leave like “Oop, nope, you haven’t learned your lesson looks like you need a little more time in your box, I’ll be back in fifty years, don’t go anywhere now teehee 🤭”
