MK was very content with his many parental figures.

He had Pigsy and Tang, who had raised him from his 'birth', and he had Wukong, who was moreso a reluctant father. And following that line, he had Macaque, who acted like a brooding stepdad. He had almost no problem going to any of them with his life problems.

Unless those life problems pertained to him.

And that was where you came in.

You, a deity MK had accidentally befriended, had taken on a human form, kind to him no matter what, and treated him like a brother, almost. Ever lastingly caring, almost always there when the nightmares struck, when he lost control.

Wukong and Macaque didn't approve of your presence, but you ignored them in favor of MK. Your brother.

When he'd seen your full form, he'd been shaken up somewhat. Watching you terrorize the demon who'd cornered him when he'd been in a more vulnerable position, forcing the creature to flee in horror.

However, when you turned and shifted back, your gaze softening, MK almost launched forward.

"Y-you came- you actually came-" He whispers, shaking, almost sobbing as he latches onto you in a tight hug.
