Give That Monkie Man A HUG Goddamnit - Tumblr Posts

thinking about that seal Monkey King put on MK in episode one and how little it actually mattered. after everything that happened between seasons 1 - 5, MK is like a hundred times stronger than he was before the seal, anyway. it came free with his 'Being The Goddamn Harbinger'. assuming the seal wasn't broken on its own by one of the several mystic encounters he's had, the only thing breaking it would accomplish is making MK invincible, and what good would that do? the things he's already faced make the concept entirely obsolete, nevermind anything he'd have to face in the future. would being invincible have saved him from the Lady unraveling the world? would being invincible have saved him from Azure’s crumbling reign over the universe? would being invincible have saved him from Nuwa reseting life as they knew it? being invincible and being immortal aren't thing same thing, and MK is neither. and even if he was both, it never would have saved him.
