Wukong can separate two different issues, especially when the first was phrased more as a joke when he said it. Yes, he would like there to be more positive moments to choose from that are related to the path of helping Macaque, but not just for the sake of fixing the negative. It bothers him because he knows there are more formative memories and experiences Macaque has had. And he knows personally that the suffering and the happier feelings define a lot when it's multiple things that are related. So matching the negative space with similar negativity and positive spaces with similar positivity feels too clean, too reductive. And that feels wrong, even if it's what needs to be done.

He gently strokes the snake under his sleeve. Macaque is trusting him with this, so he's trying to trust his own instincts in turn. He punches the button for the next floor and leans against the wall of the elevator.

People are complicated things, but that is why Macaque has so many rooms, he's sure. The levels, many rooms, it was covering a lot. The complications are from many places working together.

So the best thing was to listen to the room.

Wash leans against the wall, closing his eyes. Breathing as he pets the Makitty, mixed with rubbing over the back of his neck.
