an independent & headcanon based portrayal of the 𝐬𝐢𝐱-𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐪𝐮𝐞 from the cartoon show lego monkie kid. inspired by various jttw based media & lore. this is NOT a fandom blog. personals / non-roleplay blogs MAY follow, read and like my posts, but PLEASE don't reblog them, or you will be blocked. current posting activity: actively posting.

THE WATER'S AT YOUR NECK. YOU'RE TRYING HARD TO BREATHE.
the basics
selective and mutuals only. if i'm following you, i'm interested in interacting. if i don't follow back, either i haven't read your rules yet or i'm simply uninterested. please do not try to force interaction if we're not mutuals. i practice basic rp etiquette - please trim posts to avoid dash clutter, send me a prompt before rbing a prompt list from me, don't run off with my graphics, etc. regarding "god-moding / meta-gaming": macaque comes from a universe where being stupidly OP is kind of the norm (like DBZ) and is stupidly cracked himself, so i'm pretty lax about fights and powerscaling. please note: macaque canonically has near-omnipotent hearing and is described by the buddha himself in JTTW to be able to hear all sounds, including the past and future. obviously that's super OP and can feel like metagaming, so the way i utilize it is that he ignores/tunes out most people/sound because it's Too Loud and Too Much and actually makes him Crazy. Macaque will only really dig into your muse's background/future if he's wanting to manipulate them or gain information about them. I play him with the intent of him being an antagonistic force for other characters, so if you're not wanting to explore that for your muse feel free to let me know. if you'd like to opt into all the other unhinged things macaque does as an antagonist, feel free to like this post. i love getting the chance to write macaque being a Bastard, but i won't put your muse through the ringer without your permission first!
interaction and plotting
if we are mutuals, please feel more than welcome to reach out to interact, plot, send both ic / ooc asks, the whole nine yards! i'm always excited to interact! i love plotting. due to my busy offline life, i don't have as much time to build stuff up in character - so while i'm totally down to jump right in with ic stuff, i do prefer being able to supplement our interactions through ooc conversations about our characters, it helps me build interest. so, let's talk about our muses! please take the narrative of our characters seriously - my biggest buzzkill is if i feel like the person i'm writing with isn't matching my energy be it ic or ooc and will likely disengage if it happens.
shipping
i am multiship! all ships will take place in their own timeline and don't intersect unless plotted otherwise. macaque is... ageless and immortal, and has been around for thousands of years. he is severely traumatized and has a lot of issues and has done bad things. romantic ships, or just any close connection he makes, will not be easily maintained and will be a little messy at best. i'm open to any type of dynamic - not just romantic. though i'm a sucker for romance, in general i love and get easily attached to the bonds macaque makes. this can include a range of dynamics such as romantic, familial, found family, mentor/student, rivalry, enemies, hateship, and more. i'm pretty flexible. my only hard boundary is that i won't ship him with characters under the age of 25, and in fact prefer he date other immortals or people that are closer to middle-aged. for the sake of transparency, i do like shadowpeach and reference it on my blog often. though i peronally see macaque and wukong's dynamic as most interesting if left unlabeled and undefined, i enjoy them as a pairing too. i don't interpret, nor portray macaque as wukong's sibling, so please don't push that interpretation on me. consider this your opportunity to reconsider interacting if that at all makes you uncomfy!
mains / exclusives
i don't practice exclusives. though i do sometimes acquire mains. usually the qualification for us to become mains boils down to we interact and plot a lot and have a long-standing established dynamic between our muses. and/or just happen to be friends! i can have more than one main of the same muse. i don't like limiting myself, so there's always opportunity for your character to land on macaque's relations page at some point or another!
drama & unfollowing
i don't support callouts unless it's to deal with a literal predator, or someone who is actively endangering other users in the community. there HAS to be blatant evidence for it, and it can't just be screenshots of people arguing online, especially over fictional crap. if the callout doesn't fit this criteria, i'm ignoring it. PLEASE keep this in mind BEFORE following me! i don't care for fandom drama and it should never be used as an excuse to bully others. i will unfollow for... behaviors such as vague posting followers, guilt tripping, rage baiting, passive aggression, excessive vent posting about unrelated/personal things, OOC racism or bigotry, and general toxicity / meanness about RP.
please don't follow me if you...
reference anti/proship in your rules. i'm not interested in what other people ship nor can i control how other people are impacted by fictional content, and i strongly dislike the idea that feeling this way suddenly makes you a terrible person. if this is an issue for you, this is the time to reconsider interaction. have a general rpc dni in your rules. i'm STRONGLY against the idea of a "general dni/general dni criteria" for multiple reasons. for one being that it's incredibly vague and untrustworthy, and two it implies that everyone must fall into line under the rules of a stranger. i don't feel comfortable interacting with people who can't speak for themselves, establish their own boundaries with fiction, and would rather just demonize anyone who thinks differently. have "dni if you like/watch/read (insert whatever franchise here.)" your fandoms do not dictate your morality and if you think it does, i don't trust your morals. (and frankly speaking, you can disagree with a creator / dislike them while still being a fan of the works they made, and you shouldn't have to specify this / put in disclaimers either. it doesn't make you a bad person or automatically mean you support harmful actions. can we stop sucking the joy out of everything and walking on eggshells about fandom please?) we judge people based off how they treat other REAL people here, not what they do in make-pretend. this is incredibly obvious and does NOT need to be specified but since a lot of people act like freaking tumblr dot com is the demographic for this: bigots, anti-blm, anti-palestine, and anyone who discriminates, bullies or harasses people for their identity/culture/disabilities are not welcome here.
the mun!
hi there! i go by rune! my pronouns are they/them and i am currently 27 years old. i have been writing macaque since may, 2022. i've done a lot of research and deep diving into what little info there is regarding the six-eared macaque outside lego monkie kid, and every time i come back to his muse again i'm always learning new things about him! he's probably my favorite character to roleplay, he just checks off every box for me in terms of tropes and themes i enjoy exploring hehe. right now, i'm working as a full time sales person and am living with my partner in our own apartment. thankfully, more and more time is opening up for me to engage in my rp hobbies, so you can expect to see me around more often! i hope you enjoy my blog, and my monkey related shenanigans!!
