[Wukong stares at the pendant, taking in every little detail. It's never not impressive, what he can manage with his shadows, or what he thinks to do with them. And this is just a prime example.
Before he gives a response, he loops it around his tail several times before adjusting the fit snugly. That way it's always visible since his tail always is, and also basically the safest place it can be.]
I love it. I would have accepted you courting him first, or MK...or whoever. But, I'm glad you chose me first.
As for MK, it's not that he comes first. He just...isn't only my mate, he's my responsibility. There are things he needs from me that you don't. That maybe one he won't. [He takes Macaque's face in his hands.] Besides, you're the person who gave me a specific person to care for first. Nothing will change or lessen that. I love you just as much. And I always will.
And I would mark you as mine a million times. So of course I still want to.
[ Macaque isn't sure what to make of the staring, but his nerves sure know exactly what to make of it because they kick up annoyingly. Then Wukong puts the thing on and Macaque lets out a breath that he hadn't been aware he was holding and finally cracks a smile. ]
It could never be anyone else first, Wukong. [ He can't and won't claim a favorite among his mates, it would feel wrong, but he never doubted that Wukong would have a chance to accept or reject his courting first. ]
[ Macaque doesn't say anything even as he slips his scarf off and starts unfastening his shirt until he can expose the place on his shoulder where Wukong had marked before. ] Good. I want you to. I want you to redo it anytime you feel shaky about where we are. As often as you need to.
