Four years of clashing staffs and shared silences have all been steps on this path. I, Wukong, rose from our nest of blankets during the movie, a restless energy I couldn't contain. Wordlessly, I took your hand and led you outside, our footsteps silent on the familiar trails of Flower-Fruit Mountain. The canopy parted to reveal a moonlit clearing, a sacred space I'd kept waiting. My usual bravado evaporated as we stopped. The world seemed to pause. I went down on one knee, the simple box suddenly heavy in my hand. The forest watched, hushed. I looked up, meeting your eyes, and saw my own nervous devotion reflected there. The words, practiced and yet terrifying, were ready. This moment would change everything.
