Some pose studies with Wukong. He is so fun to draw whattt šš
dude.
Actually cannot stop watching this
It was bound to happen at some point. Traveling through rain, heat, and snow was going to lead to you getting sick. It started off small. You woke up to your arms and legs aching, but you brushed it off. You spend your time walking from place to place, if you felt a bit sore that was expected. Then your head started to hurt. A dull ache behind your eyes. Maybe you werenāt drinking enough water. It had been a while since you had a break. For every little thing there was a reasonable explanation.
It wasnāt until you woke up gasping for air that you were finally willing to admit that you were sick. Nose stuffed to the brim, clothes drenched in sweat, and forehead hot to the touch you couldnāt remember ever being so sick.
When you donāt get up early that morning, DO / Wukong knows that something is wrong. If you hadn't already woken up before him, then it wouldnāt be long before you were up. Looking over at your flushed face, his brows furrowed in worry. When he pokes and prods you and doesnāt receive much of a reaction except for a grunt, his tail flicks in worry.
Destined One
[-]Ā He can instantly tell that you're sick.Ā And while outwardly he doesnāt seem bothered, the way his tail flicks around and his raised shoulders were enough of a sign to tell he was worried.
[-]Ā Feels completely out of his depth about what to do. Sure he helped take care of the younger monkeys back home, but didnāt know if that could be used on humans. The last thing he wanted to do was make you feel worse.
[-] Youāll have to guide him for a bit. Tell him what you need and heās on it. With the same focus he has when fighting, heās going to do everything to make sure you get better.
[-]Ā Is the sun too bright and making your headache worse? Be prepared to be carried somewhere with shade and be handed water.Ā
[-] Not able to stomach anything. Heās going to make the blandest most flavorless soup imaginable just so that you can eat something.
[-] Doesnāt want to leave you side if possible, but he knows that he needs to get you medicine. And as the day progresses and you donāt seem to be getting better, he starts to get more nervous.
[-] Ultimately both of you choose to go to the Zodiac Village. Maybe theyāll have something to help you get better.Ā
[-] And if while you're bundled up, tea cup in hand, you notice DO take note of what herbs and plants can be used for medicine for later, then youāre willing to pretend you didnāt notice.
[-]Ā Everytime you take a nap, exhausted from being sick, DO hovers by your side. Heās there ready to get anything you need when you wake up.
[-]Ā By the end of the night, feeling much better your head rests comfortably on DO lap. He gently runs his hands through your hair, easing your headache. And if, when you wake up tomorrow morning you notice DO with a runny nose and cough, then it only makes sense for you to return the favor.
Sun Wukong
[-] You're taken aback by how effortlessly he assumes the role of caretaker. And when you tease him about it in between coughing fits, heās quick to remind you that he did look after the many cubs that lived in Mount Huaguo.Ā
[-] Brings you fresh washcloth to put on your forehead, heāll even go so far as to help you bathe if you let him. And with how gross you feel, youāre willing to take him up on that.
[-]Ā Heās gentle with the way he washes your hair, makes sure the water is nice and warm to help you breathe better.
[-]Ā Grabs the most comfortable clothes he owns and makes you wear it. He canāt have you wearing your dirty clothes, and if a blush covers his face when he sees you wearing his clothes, then well thatās just the sickness making you see things.
[-] Wonāt leave your side no matter what. Heās sticking by you until you get better. And in the off chance that he does need to leave, Wukong makes sure to have a clone looking after you.
[-]Ā Brings you fresh fruit for you to eat. Cuts it up into small pieces and hand feeds it to you. In his words, āA sick mortal like you should feel proud to have a king at your beck and callā.
[-]Ā If you have to move around, heās going to carry you. Wonāt let you do anything even when you insist you can.
[-]Ā When youāre not looking or taking a nap, you donāt notice how his brows furrow in worry. Maybe he should go and steal one of those immortal peaches or pills from the Celestial Court. He wonāt do it now, but itās something heās going to be thinking about once you get better.
[-] And when the day is finally over, feeling rested and better, you comfortably lay your head on Wukongās chest. The rise and fall of his breathing lulls you to sleep.
Happy Crowy Yule! It's a reall whose who of Yuletide.
Did I daydream this, or was there a website for writers with like. A ridiculous quantity of descriptive aid. Like I remember clicking on " inside a cinema " or something like that. Then, BAM. Here's a list of smell and sounds. I can't remember it for the life of me, but if someone else can, help a bitch out <3
@oh-tobeafrog thank you for inspiring me with this galaxy brain take on my two favorite marvel heroes :)
