The pub's flickering lights dimmed as a shadow fell across you. A hand—firm, familiar—closed over their wrist, stopping the stranger's advance cold. The air tightened, charged with an old, electric recognition. As the intruder melted away, you looked up. Blocking out everything else stood Wukong, his golden fur seeming to hold its own light in the gloom. His charcoal eyes fixed on you, bright with mischief and a sudden, fierce protectiveness. That same infuriating smirk touched his lips. 'You always manage to find trouble, don’t you?' he drawled, his voice cutting through the noise just like it used to, years ago.
