Summary
“For a while, he just watches snow fall across the mountain and gazes up at the stars that poke through the gaps in the clouds. It’s only when a particularly nasty wind races through that he thinks he ought to head back inside. The current of wind tugs at his clothes and blows snow in his eyes, howling something chilling and mournful as it goes. Once it settles, Wukong shakes the snowflakes from his fur, blinks them from his lashes, and huffs a foggy breath.
Before he can turn to head back to the beckoning warmth of the couch, though, something catches his eye. There’s a pocket of darkness out on the mountain, stark against the snow. He squints for a better look, tail flicking curiously from side to side.
Really, he should have guessed from the beginning. There’s only one thing, one person, that brings darkness to his mountain.”
Or
An unusually cold night brings Wukong and Macaque together.

Summary
Things were weird. They didn't talk about it.
Macaque was coming by again. The first time had been at night, so soon after they'd both been freed that the ground around them was still littered with jagged ice stalagmites, now inert. They were already melting. They would be gone on their own eventually.
Wukong watched him pummel one into slush.
After a minute, he wordlessly stepped out and helped crush them to puddles with their bare hands. The extent of her influence left the two of them working for the better part of an hour before they could no longer see any on the horizon. Their work done, Macaque had slunk back into the shadows.But he came back. Again, at night. He kept to the trees, nosing into his scarf and whiling the night away reclined and stealing whatever fruit grew at hand. He didn't sleep. Wukong would have been a hypocrite to bring it up. He was gone again come morning, always seeming to slip away when Wukong had his eyes off him.
Night five of that, and Wukong left the shack door ajar.
Night seven, and Macaque came inside.

The Moon, the Sun, and the Black Powder Fuse by ChipperSmol, sitasita

Summary
Having lived through everything he had, this part always felt silly. The sitting, the breathing, and the waiting. His life was in no danger. That the logic of that wasn't enough on its own to ease the pain-- or flush out the stress that made his hands shake-- was as unfair as it was ridiculous. Baser instincts that kept a creature alive were vestigial at best when that creature existed beyond the normal laws of mortality, and yet every demon was still bound to them.
Many could avoid fate. But not even heaven, nor its equals, could escape fear.-
Macaque is invited along to celebrate the new year, and errs on the side of proving a point.

Summary
Macaque thought it'd be fun to go to a party to make Wukong mad, however ever since MK and Mei were able to persuade him to go, they keep trying to get him to come to more. Even when he says no, he always ends up running into Wukong anyway.
or; Macaque and Wukong keep running into each other.

Summary
Wukong had never known himself to be the brightest lantern set before an altar.
But there was always one thing he found himself able to recall even centuries after he'd lost the need for it; a piece of information he could stake his life on knowing without understanding exactly how. It had always just...been there, like a ribbon that'd wound itself tightly about his index finger at birth and refused to leave despite his desperate attempts to get rid of it.
Because why would the Great Sage, Equal to the Heavens themselves, ever need to recall Macaque's whereabouts?
And why would he only ever be able to locate the shadow during moments of intoxication?
Drinking and partying has always been one of Wukong's favorite pastimes. After all, it's way easier to nurse a bruised ego when you're seeking the remedy at the bottom of a bottle. It's not his fault said remedy always leads him back to Macaque.
