I am finding myself with a tough decision, I am writing a story inspired by a fascinating idea from @jedineedlove
In summary: it’s a crossover between Black Myth: Wukong and Lego Monkie Kid. However, the Sun Wukong in LMK is actually The Destined One from the game, but is posing as Sun Wukong due to a feeling of obligation from all the mistakes the king has made, and more.
Anyway, what I’m struggling with is the physical differences between the two monkeys. I’m someone who has been reading the books long before the game came out(because of LMK), watched LMK, and has played Black Myth: Wukong. There are a few differences between the three. I’ve decided to go with a mash from all three, but I’m stuck on fur color for The Destined One.
I hadn’t meant to have the poll last a week, my bad!
I know I want Sun Wukong’s to be the same as it is in LMK, but I also want The Destined One’s to be different. Sure, he’ll hide it with glamours later anyway, but still. I am thinking either a less saturated amber orange(closer to LMK) or silver in a sense(closer to the game). I love both honestly and I’m struggling. So if anyone wants to put in their opinion on whichever they like, or even a new idea, that would be wonderful!

I probably should have done this earlier, but I have planned the next four chapters of When the Mask Falls out more thoroughly, so that should hopefully help me write them better.
I will be working on artwork for the story, that I will post here! Don’t expect any for a while though…
Chapter 2 is complete! It had me stumped for a while on how things should go. I definitely will be changing a few things that happen in the show, hopefully just a little bit, otherwise things wouldn’t make much sense…at all.
In regards to the story I’m writing inspired by the idea from @jedineedlove
This will be where I post for when I finish chapters. I will start posting the chapters on Ao3 once I’ve completed 5 main chapters I am confident in.
Summary: a crossover between Black Myth: Wukong & Lego Monkie Kid. However, the Sun Wukong in LMK is actually The Destined One from the game posing as Sun Wukong. He hides his true personality as to meet the expectations of others and be able to atone for the mistakes the Monkey King made in the past and still linger today. Though, that doesn’t mean he’s able to keep the mask up all the time.
I have completed the prologue! Yes, I write prologues before the first chapter, so technically 6 chapters! I typically get faster as I write because the idea forms more clearly in my head how things will go specifically. Even though I already made an outline.
Here’s a snippet of what the chapter holds
“Idiot! Move!” Bajie yells, and he’s already jumping away. The stone suddenly bursts with an explosion of light, he had to shield his eyes from it as it was like the sun was suddenly before them. Once the light faded, all that’s left are pieces of the stone all around the clearing they stood on, each piece a size ranging from a ripe peach to Uncle Bajie. Speaking of Bajie, he’s by the monkey’s side in a blink and is looking over him, he seems to be searching for something specific. Bajie sighs in relief soon after, and he can only assume what it could be.

The prologue is the only chapter set in the time of Black Myth: Wukong, so the only time we see Zhu Bajie. Every chapter after is set within the time of LMK.
I’m working on chapter 2, and I’m about halfway done, but I keep thinking about stuff I forgot to write for chapter 1! I keep going back and adding what I forgot, but at this rate, the chapter will be unnecessary long.

Thingy I drew for Chapter 33 of When the Mask Falls.
I really need to look into drawing on something that isn’t my phone.
YES!
Somemore fanart for When the Mask Falls, Chapter 20.
I wasn't sure what exactly the Destined One was wearing at the time as I either missed the description somehow or it wasn't mentioned, and ended up going with the Fortunes Favour armor set(though simplified) but also added the cape Sun Wukong wears in Monkey Kid, it just seemed like it fit together nicely!
