I kind of want to talk about an au I have.
I don’t know how many people are actually in this “fandom” on here, but I’m so it anyway.
So this is all based on OSP’s jttw the west series on yt. And I call him Sandy :3
So basically after the Journey was over, Wukong was like bye and disappear for a while. Not a big deal, right? Yeah, that was until he returned. He went back to his old ways with some improvements.
He didn’t murder anyone unless they attacked him or his monkeys
Is the main one.
Problem though, he basically started acting as a trickster god. He does pranks and trickster god things in Heaven mainly. Nothing that actually causes big problems like he did before, but everyone quickly gets annoyed by him. They all know he can beat their asses, but something has to be done. He can’t just keep this up, he’s not even an actual god! So they make a plan
They can’t kill him, and they can’t imprison him. So what’s the next best option? Seals. A shit ton of seals. Since the journey didn’t work the way it was meant to, maybe a new view on life would.
They basically just seal away his powers and his memories. And he’s turned into a human. Then he’s just dumped on the mortal plane, and they just fucking hope it works. Oh and they put another circlet on him, but it’s only there if he tries to you know over throw heaven again. The only one with any ability to activate it is QuanYin.
So meet Sandy :3 He’s my jttw oc/au
A quick run down of everything from his point of view:
He doesn’t know who he was before waking up. He woke up in the middle of nowhere alone and scared.
He does know lots of things are out to get him for some reason. Lots of demons seem to want him dead, which is terrifying.
He also can’t take this crown off, and it’s really painful when he tries.
He can’t really fight, and he’s fucking scared to anyways. So he usually runs and hides whenever a fight happens.
He’s a ball of anxiety, and is constantly worrying about everything. Like everything. He’s scared of everyone and everything. His anxiety is through the roof.
His eyes are special because they let him his the aura/magic of a person, but it also stops glamorouses from working (not shapeshifting, just glamorouses). He can’t turn it off, no matter how much he wants to.
He’s constantly in his own world. He struggles with focusing on anything and when he does, he gets way too focused on it.
He got Anxiety and ADHD.
He is Sun Wukong, but obviously he is not aware. And as I explained before the heavens ended up putting seals on him. Magic Anthesis basically.
Also he didn’t name himself, some folks he met did. He got his “first name” from the kid, and the other folks gave him his “middle” names. He knew his last name, but that just cause a random note was left that said “Sũn” so he amused that as his name.
He’s happily Genderfluid and AroAce, well Cupioromantic Asexual.
This was a long post, but I wanted to talk about my au/oc. He’s cute and silly, and also a ball of anxiety :3
