Summary
Wukong sees ghosts.
Often he sees them in his nightmares, with blurred faces and incoherent voices that come in mixtures of agonizing screams or tearful moaning. They come in impossible proportions with hollowed cheeks and pale skin, more of how Sun Wukong last saw them but always more.. off.
They're not always the same ghosts, but there are some that do come back. He pretends to not recognize them.
Until a new ghost appears that he cannot ignore.
Wukong is haunted by Macaque's ghost.

Summary
The video goes online four days after the crash.
“Warning: Pilot Ejection Advised.”
“Not while we’re still over the city, no- can’t risk this thing blowing up and landing on top of civilians. Maintain cruising altitude, calculate shortest route to minimal population area.”
“Altitude Locked - Calculating.”
For a moment, just a split second, Mecha Man visibly hesitates. Then, he switches hands, keeping the flight controls steady while reaching for a panel on the other side of the cockpit. A faint chime sounds, followed by a ringtone. Three repetitions. A voice speaks, too faintly to be heard over the wind, then a louder beep.
“Hey, buddy,” Mecha Man says, gaze locked onto the viewscreen in front of him, almost directly at the camera recording all of this. “Don’t think I’m going to be able to make it to dinner this weekend after all, sorry."

Summary
Macaque thinks that he should be able to die the way he wants, just this once.
The flowers growing inside of him seem to disagree, as does Wukong.

Summary
“Pfft, I know I’m a looker, but you don’t hafta stare that much,” Wukong says, trying to break the tension and divert from the fact that Macaque’s intense scrutiny is making him clammy.
“Did he lose his ability to speak?” MK wonders.
Macaque’s ears flicker towards MK’s voice, and as if in response, his mouth opens, eyes still heavy on Wukong. But what comes out are not words. Or rather, not recognizable words—not to this world, not to anyone. Not anyone but Wukong.
Macaque opens his mouth, and speaks the language of celestial primates.
“Who are you?”
Or, to protect Sun Wukong, Macaque dooms himself to live out three turning points of his first life: birth, friendship, and death. When MK and the gang volunteer to look after him, Wukong is forced to grapple with memories thought to be buried, reality-shattering discoveries, and most dangerous of all, a Macaque that likes him. It's a losing battle.

Summary
After that drunken night Macaque is left broken, and he desperately tries to put himself back together piece by piece. But an untimely deadly illness, a certain immortal monkey, and a cursed promise threaten to break down the walls he’s spent so many centuries building up. In the end…is that really a bad thing?
Macaque and Sun Wukong have to figure out what they both want from each other before it’s too late and they are torn apart by fate once again.
------
Or in other words, Macaque is really really sick and Sun Wukong is still there. For some reason.(A continuation from my oneshot “Take What You Want From Me”)
