Sometimes life is like this.

Taking Care Of Eachother

ok, this is a stupid picture I came up with a long time ago in response to a random idea I had got at the time.

I have like part of a story written done for it, but the main gist of it is Ink finds Error having his equivalent of a seizure and after finding out that Error basically leaves it untreated he kind of kidnaps Error in an attempt to prevent Error from hurting himself with his “incompetence”.

I may put up what I have of the idea at some point, but as of now that is far from my mind.

Ok, i love this idea.

Deaf!Marinette AU: Stoneheart - Part 1.

Marinette forgot to set her phone to vibration the previous night, and, since she she's deaf, ended up sleeping through her morning alarm.

Marinette started waking up early as a kid to head to school on her own since it made her feel more "grown up," so her parents don't usually go to make sure she's awake since they're busy with opening up the bakery.

She ends up being extremely late, and only has time to grab the macaroons she had spent hours trying to perfect the previous day, in hopes of having a good start with her classmates.

On her way to school, she sees a man on thr opposite side of the road trying to hurry across the street as a car comes speeding towards him. Without a second thought, she sprints towards him to get him out of harm's way.

Her macaroons are ran over and destroyed, and her pants from the knees down are soaked with water from the rain puddle she had fell into while pushing the man onto the sidewalk.

The elderly man regards her with a face of shock, admiration shinning through. "Are you alright?" He asks and Marinette is barely able to read it from his lips as the adrenaline pounds through her head.

Flashing him a reassuring smile, she motions towards her ear and simply signs, "I'm deaf."

She doubted the man knew Sign considering not many people put in the effort to learn it nowadays, but she hoped he at least understand what she was trying to say, especially since it was one of the better known signs with hearing people.

Marinette was happily suprised whem the man smiled softly at her and responded, "I see. Are you alright then?" His hands moving as he signed back to her.

Marinette was about to respond when her back suddenly straightened and she realized just how late she was - and on her first day too!

After receiving confirmation that the man was fine and helping him retrieve his cane from the road, she hurriedly threw a smile at him from over her shoulder as she ran towards Collège Françoise Dupont.

Wang Fu hummed to himself as he watched the young girl, no older than fifteen, trip her way to school. Yes, he told Wayzz, she would make a very intertesting hero indeed.

Marinette raced through the school halls, taking a moment to catch her breath as she stood outside her classroom.

This would be her second year of high school, and she hoped it was better than the last.

Mme. Bustier, her new teacher, turned her head and smiled at Marinette as she entered the classroom. Marinette had already met with her a few weeks prior with her parents, as Tom and Sabine explained that Marinette would require slightly different teaching methods due to her disability.

Greeting her teacher with a smile, Marinette headed towards one of the seats in the front row, closest to where Mme. Bustier would be teaching.

This was her first year using hearing aids, which meant it was also her first year without an interpreter having to come to class with her. She still wasn't completely used to the devices in her ears, and she stopped wearing her hair up in favor of being able to conceal them.

The noise was startling at first, and it was still a bit overwhelming at times. Marinette only used them when absolutely needed, and had switched them on outside of class.

The loud chattering of her classmates made her wince, but she was also curious to hear what everyone had sounded like. After all, she had known most of these people for years and never heard them speak before. It was almost exciting to guess what they would sound like.

A hand slapping down on her desk made her flinch and she looked up to meet bright blue eyes glaring at her, "Dupain-Cheng!" Chloé sneered at her and Marinette confirmed to herself that, yes, Chloé did sound exactly like she imagined she would. Annoying. "This is my seat!"

Marinette didn't open her mouth to speak, she refused to waste her breath on this. "This is my seat," she signed and Chloé's brow twitched in annoyance.

"How many times do I have to tell you I don't speak jazzhands?" She rolled her eyes dramatically and Marinette felt herseld being shoved out of her seat from the opposite side, Sabrine now sitting where she had been. Pointing at an empty seat next to an unfamiliar face, Chloé glared at her. "You sit there now." She made sure to word it sharply and slowly, unaware Marinette had hearing aids.

Marinette hesitated before deciding it wasn't worth the fight. Chloé had been annoying her since the first year of middle school, there was no point in rebelling now.

A hand reached for Marinette's wrist and she found herself being dragged by the unfamiliar student, all while she glared daggers at Chloé. Marinette tumbled into her seat and received a smile from her deskmate.

"What a snobb," The new student huffed under her breath with an eyeroll. When the girl beside her didn't respond, she spared her a glance to see her staring at her lips with a confused expression on her face.

Marinette flushed. Even with her hearing aids, she was nowhere close having perfect hearing. Loud environments, quiet voices, and hard to understand words made her feel as though she was wearing earplugs instead of hearing aids.

"She's deaf, you dunce!" Chloé shouted with a laugh, causing Marinette to shrink into herself.

Alya blinked in surprise just as Mme. Bustier clapped her hands to gain the class's attention. "Good morning, class! For those who don't yet know me, I am Madam Bustier, your homeroom teacher this year," she smiled at the faces filling the room. "As Chloé had shouted," she sent a warning look at the student, "your classmate Marinette is deaf so please be mindful of that." Oh wow, everyone was looking at her.

She wanted to melt into the ground.

The rest of the class was rather uneventful, with Mme. Bustier explaining the syllabus and having the students introduce themselves. She purposefully skipped over Marinette, which caused the girl beside her to peak up at, as Sabine had informed her that Marinette was not comfortable with verbal communication.

"Ivan! Go to the principal's office," Marinette looked up as she saw her teacher directing her classmate out the door. Snickering filled the room, specifically coming from two classmates, and Marinette was already awaiting the moment she could remove sound from her life again.

"Geez," she heard the girl beside her mutter as the situation unfolded. Their eyes met and she felt her cheeks heat up at the grin directed at her.

Her deskmate flipped through her notebook, a Marvel themed one, and began to scribble on a blank page before shoving it in front of her face.

"Hi! I'm Alya. Looks like we'll be classmates :)"

Marinette felt something spread in her chest as the girl looked at her expecting, smiling widely. She made an effort to talk to me...

Uncapping her pen, Marinette replied on the same page, "Hello, I'm Marinette! It's nice to meet you, Alya. Right now, I'm wearing hearing aids that allow me to understand you for the most part, but I only communicate through Sign and writing."

Alya grabbed the paper, happy that Marinette had replied. "Oh, I don't know Sign Language," she frowned. Then suddenly her eyes held a gleam, "but I can learn! I've always been a fast learner, espeically with languages!"

Before Marinette could swoon over the fact that a girl she had just met, that didn't even know her, declared that she would be learning a brand new language just for Marinette's sake, a sudden shake filled the building.

"That was Ivan's voice, right?" Marinette didn't respond as Alya pulled out her phone, "it's like he's been transformed into a real life supervillain!" She pocketed her phone and turned on her heels to run.

Marinette snatched her wrist, looking at Alya as though she had grown a second head. "Don't look at me like that! Wherever there's a supervillain, there's a superhero close behind! I am not missing this," and with that Marinette was left to stare at her new classmate, someone she was convinced was either fearless or crazy.

After a moment of hearing screams fill the school, Marinette groaned and turned off her hearing aids, slightly more relaxed without the chatter filling her head. Sighing, she sprinted in the opposite direction Alya had, away from the fight amd towards home.

After her parents secured the bakery's door and made sure their daughter was alright, Marinette found herself sitting in front of her computer, watching with a anxious interest as the news reported on the current situation.

Her eyes spotted a black jewelry box sitting on her desk. With red designs and an unique shape, Marinette was certain it wasn't one of hers.

Opening it, Marinette was met with a blinding light of bright red. Wincing, she closed her eyes and tried to process what had just happened.

Blinking her eyes open, she was met with a red and black creature hovering above the box. Large blue eyes stared at her.

Marinette nearly screamed.

The creature came towards her, its mouth moving as it must of been letting out some type of animalistic noise.

It stopped chasing her suddenly and something resembling a pondering look came across its little bug face.

Marinette watched as the - thing - flew to her computer and began to smash itself against her keys.

Marinette had to take a moment to realize it was typing words.

And then another moment to get over her shock.

"Greeting, my name is Tikki. Please allow me to explain."

Marinette took notes as she read through Tikki's explanation, which was surprisingly detailed.

Tikki said that she could understand any language her holder knew, so she turned to her, still off-put by her interesting appearance, and signed, "I'm sorry for freaking out earlier, Tikki. Thank you for your explanation, it was really helpful," she nodded towards the computer and the kwami smiled at her.

"But," her hands paused for a moment and sbe pursed her lips. "I think you're confused. Someone like me, I could never be a superhero - people like me aren't supposed to be heroes." Marinette gave Tikki a sad smile, her hands falling to rest in her lap.

Tikki frowned, confused by her holder's words. No one had ever declined a miraculous before, in fact, some were a bit too excited to be given one.

"But," she began before realizing her mistake, "but Marinette, you're the chosen one. You were selected before you have the heart of the hero. Only you can wield the Ladybug Miraculous."

Marinette sighed as she read the message, about to sign her owm retort when a flash from her phone caught her attention.

"Emergency Warning: Supervillain causing property damage to Collège Françoise Dupont, students indanger."

Marinette felt her heart drop as the video of - Ivan? - played, damaging the field of her high school. That wasn't what caused her emotiom distress, however. No, it was was the shot of Alya being in frame, a worried look on her face as she tried ro duck behind the bleachers and avoid the gravel being thrown around.

Taking a shaky breath, Marinette looked at Tikki, who wore a determined look on her face. Closing her eyes, willing her heartbeat to slow down, she breathed in slowly.

"Tikki, spots on."

Alright! This is the official first part of my deaf Marinette au! It's going to be tagged as "deafbug au," but the name may change later on. Click here to see some background for this au. Feel free to send any asks or comment if you have any questions :)

Edit: part 2 here.

I completely agree with this, and it is't just a thing in the LMK universe. It was also somewhat of a thing in the original Journey to the West.

Wukong always worked to deal with a problem in a way to make sure it would not cause more problems to himself, his group, or the wider world in the future. Problem though? Others didn't like the way Wukong dealt with things or just pain undervalued Wukong and wanted to shove him in a corner out of the way.

(I'll be using OSP as a show of this)

First off Wukong was actually not trying to cause the wider world problems in the beginning, he was a new born creature that caused an oops because hey he was a new born and then became leader of his (her? I ask this because I've heard the type of monkey used as the basis for the monkeys of Wukong's home have a matriarchy) tribe. And after having an existential crisis (which you have to admit everyone has!) Wukong decided to go out into the world to make himself stronger, introduce himself, and Including getting immortality. Yes he is a show off, but what person doesn't't somewhat want to show of their powers in someway! Then for some reason people start messing with his tribe! Of course the guy is going to deal with the people messing with his tribe! And instead of just stopping the immediate problem wukong does 2 things, preps his people for the future by teaching them to fight and preps himself for the future by getting proper armor and weapons. Also, the dragons offer Wukong weapons when he goes to him. The problem was none of them fit his style of fighting and he eventually chose a polar because that fit his fighting style the best. The Dragon's we're only scared of Wukong after Wukong proved to be stronger then them. And they offer him things to get them on his good side and out of their property. And then he accidently scares other Damon's with his powers in his excitement. To which makes them want to get on Wukong's good side. Wukong properly planed for future problems in this case and unintentionally showed the demons why they should be scared of him.

Then what happens? The bloody Diern decides Wukongs immortality doesn't count basically and tries to steal him away to death. Can you blame the guy for fighting them and basically erasing himself from their book when that should of already been done? Erasing his people came as apart of his punishment to the Diern for messing with him when he we doing nothing wrong.

He only became a "problem" to heaven for 3 reasons (one of which comes later). Messing up the Diern (for a very good reason), unintentionally messing with the gods, and deciding to call himself "the great sage equal to heaven". So what do they do? They try and control what could be called a force of nature or carma. They do so by placing him in one position that is a waste of his talents (being a stable master), is of extremely low rank, and would clearly leave him board and unsatisfied long term. To which he retaliated, because he wanted a position befiting of his skill and calls himself the great sage equal to heaven to show them he is their equal. The gods in heaven could have taken it as a joke or reversed it to say Wukong though of them as his equals, in other words as strong fighters and rulers. But no, they thought of it as an insult to them and lead to many a fight! The second position they put him in, while more befiting, had a major problem. One you are leaving the monkey alone with their food source. Of course he was going to eat them! Wukong would be right to be mad. Plus the guy doesn't know anything about how heaven works so of course he is going to unintentionally mess up it's flow! It is't like they explained anything to him! And they did not even invite him to the festival! Maybe they had done so they could have kept an eye on him and kept him from causing more trouble!

And once he realizes, he goofed? He left heaven not to cause more trouble, because he knows he is impulsive enough to generate more. What to they do when they know Wukong caused the problem and is strong enough to beat up their people and cause havoc? They bloody go after him! Provoking Wukong into a fighting rage! If they had left it alone Wukong would have probably stayed out of the way!

Another thing that people seem to forget was that Sun Wukong wasn't the main character of the Journy to the West, or at least he wasn't meant to be. Tripitaka was meant to be the main character. Yet somehow the book always follows the Monkey kings antics.

"every major baddie problem in the lmk universe is caused by SWK not dealing with his shit properly"

expect he dealt with all the shit and i'm tired of people ignoring it to paint him as an ignorant, uncaring bastard.

(very very minor s4 spoilers, so the cut)

Demon Bull King? Got his ass whooped and was sealed away for however long years it took for an entire ass megapolis to be built literally on top of him, causing absolutely no trouble to anyone whatsoever. Oh, and what sealed DBK? The staff. And if you'd care to know SWK outside of the LEGOverse, you'd realize how strong was SWK's resolve to seal DBK - keep him relatively safe, one might say - by using his trusty staff. The guy would literally die seven times over than let go of this thing.

Also people like, ignore the fact that canonically SWK stuck around the area (for the most part to stalk MK, but still), so he was literally there to deal with the DBK family if something went southwards? He didn't, because MK was able to hold the staff and the legend of the Monkie Kid then began.

(also zero antagonistic feelings towards DBK from SWK, like, whatsoever. i bet the dude actually wanted DBK to be free, cuz he felt bad abt it)

Macaque? In a morally gray manner, still very dealt with. SWK killed the dude. He was literally as dealt with as it can be. Or what, should SWK have predicted that after thousand upon thousand of years later a spirit (he dealt with too) would pull Mac out of Diyu? Yeah, I'd like to see that thought process.

SWK isn't omnipotent, he isn't even that far-thinking. Never was, actually. So holding that against him is like, very stupid. Especially because you don't do it to any other character in the show. 

Spider Queen? Wouldja look at that, also pretty much dealt with. We don't really know how exactly, but we know that she lost literally every ounce of power she had and had to resort to living in the sewers, prolly never to cause troubles ever again because, well, we never even heard of her until the special. SQ was pulled onto the scene by the Lady Bone Demon.

Which is, again, something SWK couldn't predict even if he tried.

And now into the fun part.

Lady Bone Demon? Was sealed away by Tripitaka and also didn't cause any trouble until DBK decided to use this freaky coffin he knew literally zero things about for his plans.

"But he should've killed LBD!!!"

He tried. Believe him he tried. This decision just wasn't his, and if you hold it against him and not Tripitaka, shame on you.

"He should have told the crew about LBD!"

He really couldn't have.

And people thinking that are blatantly ignoring SWK's character. Not that obnoxious fan favorite uncaring bastard one.

SWK deals with things on his own. That is just how he is, how he always was and he never learned to do it the other way around. If that's a fight, he'll do it, because he's damn strong. If it's to scout the mountain, he'll do it, because Bajie is a lazy ass motherfucker. If it's to find food for Trip, he'll do it, cuz he's fast and his eyes are awesome.

Same applies here.

LBD? Tried to kill her and Trip didn't let me -> Basically I didn't do the job right -> WTF I always do my job right, I am Sun Wukong hello???

It was, dare I say, a question to his pride, and SWK will forever be prideful. And when he acts on his pride, he does it with style and flare, in the most stupid way possible.

Hence all of the s2 off-screen investigation arc.

"Well, he should've told about the Samadhi rings!"

It would've endangered Mei, questioned his at this point in time very shaky authority and ability to handle shit, and prolly would've fucked Mei up a very whole lot.

You don't go and say to a person that they are a part of the most dangerous seal in the world and could die and destroy everything they love because you fucked up long time ago (again, very much jabbing at his mentality of 'Sun Wukong can do no bad job, and if he does he'll better fucking die trying to make it right').

Was his plan a shitty one? Obviously. Like, no question asked, it was a shit show of a plan. Very in character, though (SWK handles all the shit because he thinks he can).

And this little character arc of SWK not learning a damn thing results in him, oh golly you would not believe it, running off to do things on his own because he thinks he can handle it, because he's THE Sun Wukong who already handled this in the past.

Who woulda thought.

MINOR S4 SPOILERS HERE

And the new addition to the baddie group, Azure Lion. Won't be addressing all 'SWK is a betraying bitch' because the show refuses to give us SWK's perspective and I hate it.

But you already know what I will say, because you know the truth. He was dealt with. Got his ass whooped and sealed away in the inky scroll. To be pulled back onto the scene by a third party that Wukong literally couldn't have known about.

See a pattern?

SWK deals with the shit, some unknown variable meddles in it, suddenly SWK is an incapable asshole who left the problems for the poor lmk crew to deal with.

Wukong did his job. Someone fucked him over by undoing his job. He tried to deal with it again the only way he knows how, but the solo play doesn't fly anymore, so he made it kinda worse.

He's not an unbearable, incapable asshole because of it.

And I'm tired of people not seeing this.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk, I am Sun Wukong Apologist till the day I die.

Have a nice day!

...

Based on context from the original artist, the words Blue speaks, as well as Error and Ink's positions.... my best guess on what happened is the three are in a relationship, though Ink and Error seem to be on rocky grounds. Error and Ink must have gotten into a fight leafing Blue to have to resolve it by tying Error up (since Error would have likely crashed if he left any bone attacks touching him) and pinpoint Ink down with blue attacks so they are forces to think about what they did.

Ink looks at least somewhat remorseful if his eyes are any indicator (either a pink heart, diamond or gem which symbolise love and the blue light blue tear which represents sadness and patients.) While Error looks extremely p***ed off.

And Blue is just done with their antics.

Eh, since I haven’t posted in a while, here’s something from a “ship event” on Twitter.

Error belongs to @loverofpiggies

Ink belongs to @myebi / @comyet

... I just find this cute.

Good luck you guys! Hope you all get well!

———-> Go Fund Me Here!  ——-> Imgur pictures of Rick and Maddy in the hospital. I know there a bunch of GofundMe campaigns on tumblr, but this one is for a Pumpkin Team member. I don’t believe in just asking for things and not getting anything in return. So I’m offering added game content for gold release, and I’ll write in your tumblr name on a pumpkin card and send it to them if you reblog this. Rick is very badly burnt, especially his fingers and he is now disabled. His dog also got some of her paws and legs burnt, but it would have been worst if he hadn’t gone back in the house to save her not once but many times. Also this was an arson fire.  Money helps of course because if you live in America you know how expensive healthcare is (a financial death sentence pretty much). They also lost all of their belongs, Rick does not even have his ID.  The person who you are helping is the first person I contacted when Pumpkin Online was only an idea and I had no idea what the hell I was doing. We would not be here had it not been for this guy, so I’m doing my best to help his family. I am also kind of poor but I still donated $40 myself so if you have anything please thanks.  THANK YOU!  

I love this, because it feels to true withing the Minecraft multiverse.
