Saiyuki: The Bird That Stayed by Wukong's Side

I’ve loved Saiyuki for ages and have really wanted to write fanfiction. But the official Saiyuki story leaves no room for fanfiction: there’s no space for anyone else between the four of them. Then today, while reading Saiyuki Gaiden, I saw that bird and suddenly thought I might be able to write something like this, so I did. This series is so obscure now, and there’s hardly any fanfiction. Looking for fellow fans QAQ. As for this short story, it’ll probably have three parts: upper, middle, and lower. I wonder if any fans will be looking forward to it. By the way, I ship Goku X Sanzang. The pairing can be reversed but not split up, so the bird protagonist’s pairing isn’t Goku. Please don’t ship them incorrectly [if anyone’s reading this]. As for whether there’ll be a pairing, I don’t know either unless I write it in, so I’ll just see how things go.
