Macaque - Tumblr Posts
Hi! If you're familiar with Lego Monkie Kid please could you draw Macaque đ
I am not familiar with it, but I drew him anyways :)
Okay, I was looking up videos/fanart of Macaque so I could pose him, and y'all-
Y'all are down bad for this monkey-fied Shadow the hedgehog đ
I think it's just an unwritten rule that all fandoms will collectively simp over the dark/edgy one with the black and red colour palette
just an out-of-control-joke from our chat
I've noticed that I don't actually have any LMK content up on here, so lets change that!

HeadShot AU by @dynamicsimp !
TWs: bright colors, pink blood, fake g*n, headwound
Evil Macaque go brrrr....
I couldn't resist doing something for this amazing AU, so have some brainrot I got from it!
Now while I really like how sweet and wholesome the actual AU is, I just love making things far more angsty than necessary, so that's how this smol vid came to be :]
Head empty, only possessed Macaque :]
The idea just wouldnât leave me alone, so I wrote a One-shot for it.
I have the headcanon that he wouldn't or isn't permitted to use glamour because, even though it only takes a small fraction of magic, it would still be a small amount of energy that he isn't using for â¨destiny⨠and that just won't do.

A little AU about Mac and Wukong that I've been crafting over the past few days. Let's see where it leads!
Also I've discovered that I really like drawing skulls, might draw some more :]

Not fast enough...
you know the one shot you wrote for possessed Macaque? I know this is a lot to ask, but I don't have access to ao3, could you maybe post it in tumblr?
Oh absolutely, dude! I don't mind at all, please never hesitate to ask me things like these! :DD
Destinyâs Redemption
Summary: âYou won't win this. Even you have to realize that, right?â Macaque said, narrowing his eyes at Wukong.
Rather than answering, the latter leveled the Shadow with a glare. There seemed to be something beyond pure anger in his eyes, but Macaque couldnât, for the life of him, discern what it was.
âThis is a suicide mission, Wukong. You can't defeat the LBD all on your own; you may be strong, but even you have your limits.â he scoffed, trying to get his point across, although his words didnât elicit any reaction.
In all honesty, he didn't know why he was currently standing behind the Monkey King, trying to convince him not to walk towards his doom. Wasn't that what he wanted? His revenge?
âŚHe decided that, no it wasn't, at least not like this. If there was one person in this realm who got to ram a weapon through the King's chest, it was him, not some destiny-crazed maniac. Convincing himself that that was the only reason he was currently standing way too close to the LBDs location, he kept talking to the other simian.
OR
A âWhat if Macaque got possessed instead of Wukongâ kinda story
Story: âYou won't win this. Even you have to realize that, right?â Macaque said, narrowing his eyes at Wukong.Â
Rather than answering, the latter leveled the Shadow with a glare. There seemed to be something beyond pure anger in his eyes, but Macaque couldnât, for the life of him, discern what it was.
âThis is a suicide mission, Wukong . You can't defeat the LBD all on your own; you may be strong, but even you have your limits.â he scoffed, trying to get his point across, although his words didnât elicit any reaction.
In all honesty, he didn't know why he was currently standing behind the Monkey King, trying to convince him not to walk towards his doom. Wasn't that what he wanted? His revenge?Â
âŚHe decided that, no it wasn't, at least not like this . If there was one person in this realm who got to ram a weapon through the King's chest, it was him, not some destiny-crazed maniac. Besides, he wouldn't admit it, but the chances of defeating the LBD with Wukong dead were⌠unfavorable to say the least.Â
Convincing himself that those were the only reasons he was currently standing way too close to the LBDs location, he kept talking to the other simian.
However, it didn't seem to matter what he asked or yelled out, as a moment later Wukong was gone, off to the horrifying armor looming in the distance.
Macaque sighed.
âWell, that's just great,â he mumbled to no one but himself, before disappearing into his shadow, bent on chasing after the other.
He can't lie, once he arrived on the battlefield he was kind of impressed by how good Wukong was holding up against the Bone Demon. He was also surprised Nezha and the Monkie Kid were both there, watching, just like him. Probably also torn between helping and risking to be in the way or just letting the King handle it.
Maybe he was wrong, the Six-Eared Simian thought to himself, maybe this would be easier than he thought, maybe his worries were unfounded. But just as he tried to convince himself to relax a bit, he realized the Lady Bone Demon was making a straight run towards where MK and Nezha stood.
He heard it before he saw it, but he was sure both the Lotus Prince and the Kid weren't blessed with as many ears as he was, so Macaque sprang into action before the other two could comprehend what was happening.
He created a shadow portal under MK as well as the Prince, knowing the latter could probably get away in time but not wanting to take any chances.Â
The LBD reached their previous location just when they disappeared into the shadows, and if he wasn't so focused on saving their lives, seeing all fourâ MK, Nezha, the Bone Demon and Wukong who was currently making his way over to them at unbelievable speedsâ seriously surprised would have been entertainment for hours at least.Â
However, he had a job to do. He swiftly portalled Nezha and Xiaotian to safety, dismissing MK's startled yelp. Without hesitation, he reappeared behind the Lady Bone Demon, a quiet "boo" slipping from his lips. Before she could fully turn, Macaque had already vanished into the shadows, replaced by the Monkey King charging at her with lightning speed, fists raised and a fury no one would ever wish to face. Macaque would know.
He watched as the Monkey King punched the LBD through several mountains. But he didnât stop there, and their battle seemed to pick up speed, with the King clearly having the upper hand.
Macaque got a bit closer, deciding on observing and helping with his shadow powers here and there by either tripping the LBD or some other small shtick. However he did still try his best to stay at a bit of a distance, not really in the mood on becoming a shadow sandwich by accident.
Apparently, though, Lady Bone Demon was not amused by his little distractions. She sharply turned towards where he was hiding. Wukong followed her gaze, realizing a moment later whom she was probably looking at.
âNot happening,â the King hissed just as he lunged at the Bone Demon, but she dodged the attack easily, although forced to turn her glare back towards Wukong.Â
She knew she didn't have much time left before the Monkey King would land a fatal hit, which forced her to think fast.Â
Her glare turned to a manic smirk as an idea seemed to come to her mind. And if there's one thing Macaque and Wukong wouldn't need right now it's her getting ideas. Even Wukong, as dense as the monkey appeared to be at times, seemed to realize she had come up with something .Â
The King narrowed his eyes at her, âWhatever it is you're thinking, you might as well throw it out right now, this fight is already lost for you and you know it. â
She responded with a sickening smile that made Macaqueâs stomach churn. âOh, but donât you know? Destiny will always find a way.â That was all the warning the Shadow received before blinding, searing pain erupted in his head. He collapsed out of the shadow he had been hiding in, clutching his head as his distorted mind filled with images of a former friend standing over him with a solemn expression and a staff raised high.
He thought he heard someone screaming his name, but his own cries drowned out most of the surrounding sounds. Through the haze, he saw a blurred figure in front of him, seemingly trying to steady him. The orange figure looked vaguely familiar, but before he could make any kind of connection, he was promptly pulled into unconsciousness.
Wukong could only watch as a blue mist appeared in his peripheral vision. If he looked closely, he could see faces of long-lost souls within it. The mist seeped through the shadows just before a screaming Macaque tumbled out, clutching his head in pain.
âGet... out... of... my... head!â Macaque roared, his voice raw and filled with a pain so intense it made Wukongâs heart ache.
âOh, how touching,â she sneered, her mental grip on Macaque tightening. âBut Iâm afraid itâs too late for that, simian.â
If he wasnât mad before, he definitely was now, enemy or not, he knew Macaque saved MK earlier and stayed even after that, helping him with small tricks.Â
Wukong rushed to Macaque's side and crouched down, his voice tinged with panic. âMacaque, hey, stay with me-â
He thought he heard the Lady Bone Demon laughing behind him. But just as he turned to confront her, he was slammed to the ground by a smirking Macaque, his eyes icy blue. The sight sent a shiver down Wukongâs spine, but before he could react, Macaque summoned his shadow staff, intent on aiming a fierce blow at Wukongâs head.
Wukong dodged, though not as quickly as he would have liked. The fight with the Lady Bone Demon had left him exhausted âdespite having the upper hand, she had landed some solid hits. Now, facing Macaqueâs unsettlingly cold smile, Wukong was at a loss.
His movements turned more defensive, and he could see the Lady Bone Demon smirking in his lateral vision, clearly enjoying the spectacle.
âDon't get too distracted, Peaches. I might just land a lucky hit this time,â Macaqueâs voice, distorted and dripping with false sweetness, taunted as he continued his relentless assault.Â
âDon't you dare abuse his memories,â the King growled, surprising even himself a little with how much rage pooled in his gut as the smug shadow monkey chuckled at his angered expression.
âOh? Isn't that just absolutely hilarious, acting like you aren't the reason why these memories exist in the first place,â Macaque laughed, the cold smile turning wider.
Wukong was about to retort with something, anything he could really, but he stopped, words stuck in his throat and a familiar, centuries long guilt settling in his gut.
Wukongâs breath hitched, his grip on the Ruyi Jingu Bang faltering slightly. âI know,â he whispered, barely audible over the clash of their weapons and the echoing laughter of the Lady Bone Demon. âI know what I did... and Iâm sorry.â
Wukong knew that turning a life-or-death battle into an impromptu therapy session might not have been his brightest idea, but seeing his former friend with that cold, corrupted smirk and manic gazeâ knowing he was the reason for it in the first place âhe couldnât bring himself to stay silent.
Macaqueâs eyesâicy and foreignânarrowed in confusion for a brief second, his staff pausing mid-swing before he forced it down towards Wukong again. But the hesitation was enough. Wukong caught the strike, the impact resonating through his bones, but he didnât let go.
The King noticed the hesitation in the other and needed only a moment before the full realization struck him. It was almost laughable that it had taken a fight to the death for him to finally open up about his deep-seated issues and regrets.Â
Yet, if all it took to make the other stop attackingâor at least to ease his blowsâwas to express his feelings and show vulnerability, he mused that most would likely have preferred such a straightforward solution.Â
Of course, he wasnât most people; he was far more emotionally constipated than the average monkey. Nevertheless, he pressed on, driven not only by the need to win the fight but also by a small, persistent voice in his heart that urged him to protect the shadow from further harm.
âIâm sorry!â Wukong shouted, louder this time, his voice raw and pleading. âIâm sorry for what I did to you, Macaque! I was blind, I was stupid, and I let my pride destroy everything between us.â
The shadow monkey snarled, wrenching his staff free and shoving Wukong back with a burst of his shadow magic. âYou think an apology is going to fix centuries of suffering ?!â His voice was distorted, twisted by the Lady Bone Demonâs influence, but Wukong could still hear the underlying pain.
âNo,â Wukong admitted, panting from the exertion of their clash. âNo, it wonât. But I have to say it. Iâve regretted that day for so long, Macaque. I didnât understand... I didnât see what you were trying to do.â
âShut up!â Macaqueâs scream was filled with rage, but also with something moreâ a deep, unresolved hurt that clawed at the edges of his mind, even through the Lady Bone Demonâs control. He charged at Wukong again, but this time his strikes were erratic, fueled by emotion rather than strategy.
Wukong deflected the blows, his heart aching with every clash. âYou were my best friend,â he continued, voice cracking. âMaybe even more than that. And I threw it all away because I couldnât see past my own stubbornness.â
Macaqueâs resolve wavered, his movements slowing, the icy blue in his eyes flickering as memoriesâof laughter, of shared battles, of moments of closeness, of sitting under a peach tree in each other's arms âpushed through the fog of the Lady Bone Demonâs control. But the demonâs influence was still strong, twisting his thoughts, trying to drown out Wukongâs words.
âYouâre lying,â Macaque hissed, though the conviction in his voice was weakening. âYouâre just trying to manipulate me... like you always did.â
âNo,â Wukong said firmly, stepping forward even as Macaque raised his staff again. âNot this time.â He dropped his staff, leaving himself open, vulnerable. âIf you hate me, then fine. But know that I never hated you. Iââ he swallowed, the words heavy on his tongue. âI love you, Macaque. I always have.â
Macaque froze, the words hitting him like a physical blow. The ice in his eyes cracked, a flicker of his true self shining through the cold blue. âWukongâŚ?â he whispered, the name filled with a mixture of longing and confusion.
Before the Lady Bone Demon could reassert her control, Wukong closed the distance between them, his hands cupping Macaqueâs face gently. âPlease, come back to me. I can't make the same mistake twice. I can't fight you again.â
For a moment, the world seemed to stop. The battlefield, the chaos, the lingering presence of the Lady Bone Demonâall of it faded into the background as Macaque stared into Wukongâs eyes.Â
As the Shadow held him in his gaze, the weight of their shared history pressed down on him. His heart ached with a mix of anger and longing, the emotions clashing like the two fighting against the Lady Bone Demon.Â
Macaque felt the icy wallsâ both the one of the Lady Bone Demon and his ownâ starting to crumble. And then, when Wukongâs words pierced through his defensesâwords filled with genuine regret and unspoken loveâMacaque surged forward pressing his lips to Wukongâs in a desperate, fervent kiss, clearly surprising both of them simultaneously.
It wasnât a calculated move or a tactical advantage; it was a raw expression of everything that had been left unsaid between them.
Would Macaque later regret that he jumped straight to kissing the one guy he had been plotting to take down for agesâso much so that he even put on an entire shadow play about how awful he wasâjust because of a few sweet words that turned him into a puddle? Probably, yeah. But that was a problem for future Macaque, and present Macaque just couldn't be bothered to care.
To his absolute surprise, as their lips met, Macaque could feel the LBDâs power weakening, the force of their shared emotions shattering the Lady Bone Demonâs control over him. The icy blue in his eyes dissolved, replaced by familiar warmth. The cold, blue aura around him flickered and then dissipated, leaving only the two of them, holding onto each other as if their lives depended on it.
The Lady Bone Demon shrieked in fury, clearly in pain at the push against her control and also angered to no end about her â now failing â plan, knowing she was in no condition to fight anymore.
As the two simians broke apart and the intense moment between them drew to a close, the battlefield fell silent. For a heartbeat, they stood there, the enormity of their shared history and the weight of their recent revelations sinking in.
However the silence didn't last long, broken by chuckles from both of them.
âDidâ did you just free me with the power of love?! â Macaque squawked, seemingly as flabbergasted about this whole ordeal as Wukong felt.
â I never knew you were a Disney princess ,â Wukong muttered with a chuckle, earning a glare with no real heat behind it from Macaque.
It took them only a moment longer to recover, knowing they still had some business to take care of. And breathless but determined, Wukong picked up his staff, his eyes locking onto the Bone Demon with renewed fire. Beside him, Macaque stood ready, shadows coiling around his hands, now fully under his control, no longer tainted by the demonâs influence.
âReady to finish this?â Wukong asked, his voice steady, filled with a confidence he hadnât felt in centuries and a warmth he thought he lost a long time ago.
Macaque smirked, the old mischief returning to his gaze. âLetâs show her what happens when you mess with the Great Sage and his shadow.â
Wukong hesitated for a second. That didn't feel right. âHow about The Great Warrior and his King instead?â He proclaimed with a smile.
Macaque seemed stunned for a moment before sighing, a small smile adorning his features.Â
Well then, my King ââ Macaque chuckled, relishing the moment as Wukongâs warm expression turned dumbfounded, with a flustered blush. ââlet's get this over with, shall we?âÂ
Wukong nodded a moment later, before they launched themselves at the Lady Bone Demon, their combined strength and fury overwhelming her quite easily, especially after she had expended so much power on Macaque earlier.
With every strike, every coordinated move, they pushed her back, her growing distress evident in her darting eyes.
Each blow seemed to sap the Lady Bone Demonâs strength, her once formidable stance wavering under their relentless assault. The battlefield, now a chaotic mess of shadows and light clashing with ice, bore witness to their unyielding determination.
Wukong and Macaque moved in perfect sync, their actions a testament to their broken past. They anticipated each otherâs moves with uncanny precision, their combined efforts creating a powerful rhythm that steadily wore down the demonâs defenses.Â
The Lady Bone Demonâs roars of fury and frustration echoed through the air, mingling with the thunderous clashes of their weapons.
As the battle raged on, her attacks grew more desperate, each one less accurate than the last. The weight of their attacks seemed to push her towards the edge of collapse.Â
With a final, synchronized maneuver, Wukong and Macaque delivered a one last strike. The Lady Bone Demonâs form shattered under the force of their attack, her dark essence dissolving. The once menacing presence faded into nothingness, leaving only the echoes of her defeat behindâŚÂ
As the dust settled, Wukong and Macaque stood side by side, breathing heavily but victorious. The battlefield was silent, the threat of the Lady Bone Demon finally gone.
Wukong turned to Macaque, his heart pounding not just from the battle but from the realization that they had just fought together, as they once had, centuries ago. âThank you,â he said, his voice soft, filled with genuine gratitude and affection.
Macaque looked at him, the animosity that had defined their relationship for so long softening, if only just a little. âDonât think this means Iâve forgiven you completely,â he said, and while he wasn't lying, his tone conveyed that he was teasing rather than hostile.
Wukong chuckled, a smile breaking across his face. âI wouldnât dream of it. But maybe... we can start over?â
Macaque considered him for a moment before nodding. âYeah, maybe we can.â
As they stood there side by side, the centuries of pain and regret began to ease, making room for the possibility of something new, something stronger. It wasnât a cure-all, but it was a beginningâa chance for The King and The Warrior to start mending a bond they had long believed was lost, realizing now that it was never truly gone...

We love gay monkeys on this blog !
draw gay monkies making out /srs
Since you're serious
Lil monkey smooch
Look at the lil' maaaaaaan... he snoozin'
First of all, your MK World AU is absolutely incredibleâthe concept is phenomenal, and the way you convey both emotion and story is beyond impressive!
Secondly, I cannot, for the life of me, see Macaque as anything but Sans Undertale, who also remembers all the resets, tries to talk to the kid who's controlling everything when they choose an "unfavourable" path, etc. Especially with only his left eye glowing when he uses his powers, since he's blind in the other oneâŚâ¨Macaque Undertaleâ¨
Thank you so much!! Also the Sans comparison has absolutely floored me cuz I could never compare a characterisation I make being as cool as Sans undertale

LBD side-eyeing Mac and Wukong in your AU:
PFFFF--- No because yes Imagine the victorious feeling of finally securing not one, but two champions, fully aware of their mutual hatred stemming from past clashes. Youâve prepared yourself to deal with their rivalry, ready to punish them if they dare disobey your orders for the sake of fighting each other. Confident in your strategy, you execute your plan, convinced youâve considered every possible outcomeâ And then this happens
Now, you're left utterly baffled, watching as they jeopardize missions not out of spite but because theyâre too busy flirting--
