BQ's main jacket has a bear symbol on the back. It also has a hood with bear ears. BQ also keeps it half zipped up.
Also, this chap has a lot of trauma and some PTSD. So be warned. but I might be exaggerating. Also, this is not a guide for dealing with this stuff and if you think it is I'm glad I wrote this sentence.
Enjoy.

Somewhere in Megapolis in an apartment, BQ sat alone on her bed in her pyjamas brushing both her arms with both her hands. Flashes of pain haunted her mind and body, sending a chill down her spine.
"Stupid spider robot, stupid Lego body." She said shivering as she brushed her arms with her hands vigorously before another memory of pain flashed through her mind causing her to tense up. "I'm fine, I'm fine. Everything is fine."
As much as BQ appreciated being given the chance to live normally after her past life, that didn't stop her from despising her current body for its fatal flaw.
The flashes of pain persisted through the night not allowing her the relief of sleep, constantly digging into her flesh. BQ continued to quake while vigorously brushing her arms until sunrise.
Once the sun rays landed on BQ's skin, her stomach growled as she continued to brush her arms. She felt famished, yet she couldn't find the strength nor the will to leave the bed. All she could do was sit in her bed as she rotted away silently.
This continued for a few days and even through the episode sleep bug. Unable to eat nor sleep all she did was change her posture every once in a while as the stings of pain haunted her.
That was until she felt it. Her body was starting to run out of power. This sent shivers down her spine and caused her eyes to twitch in horror. She didn't want to feel it again. That horrifying pain. She couldn't take it again.
BQ quickly forced herself off her bed and quickly changed into her usual clothes before hurrying to the door and down into the city before crashing into none other than her little brother himself.
"Big sis! Whatcha doin'?" Asked MK happily before noticing how terrible BQ looked. "Uhh, did you get any sleep last night? You, uhh, don't look so good."
BQ sighed. "Yes, now get out of my way." she grumbled a lie as she pushed MK to the side and began sniffing the air for chi as she brushed her arms again.
MK noticed the arm brushing and remembered their time together during the spider queen's attack. She did that then too.
"BQ, are you okay?" He asked softly as he tried reaching for BQ. "I'm here if you need anything."
BQ saw this and tensed up as the image of the spider robot shooting out its web at her overlapped with MK and his hand before backing away in fear.
"Is this about that stone thin-"
BQ didn't let MK finish before sending him crashing into a wall with a powerful punch to the gut.
"SHUT. UP. AND LEAVE. ME. ALONE!" BQ yelled angrily as the memories of her encounter with the robot spider flashed in front of her eyes as the pain from that time creeped up onto her skin.
"I-I'm just trying to help!" Exclaimed MK worriedly as he got out of the crater in the wall.
"I don't NEED your help. I don't NEED anyone's help!" Exclaimed BQ as she put energy into her legs. "I'M FINE! I'M FINE! I'M FINE! I'M FIIIIINE!"
And without another word, BQ jumped into the air leaving MK worried.
MK knew something was wrong, but he didn't know what it was. And all he could do was worry as a certain black furred monkey smiled in the distance.

Somewhere in Megapolis.
BQ held a demon by the neck in a dark alleyway as she sucked out all their chi before chucking them away like an empty can of soda.
"I need more." BQ muttered as she brushed her arms with her hands.
She sniffed the air looking for any more chi in the city and got a surprise. There was a powerful source of chi somewhere near her. She immediately chased the chi like a moth chasing light.
And through the alleyways she found its source, The Six Eared Macaque. Although he was BQ's favorite character, she wasn't in a state to meet him.
"M-Macaque?"
"Woah, you've heard of me, kiddo?" He asked cheerfully. "You know? When I first heard that the Monkie Kid had an older sister, I never expected to find a power sucking demon preying on helpless smaller demons."
At ANY other point in time, she might have enjoyed this encounter. But now wasn't the time especially when she didn't want to look bad in front of him.
"I- don't- I'm not- it's complicated." Said BQ brushing her arms vigorously.
"Hey, I'm not judging. I'm even glad." Said Macaque cheerfully. "Denying your brother's hero stuff and doing your own thing? I'm all up for it, kid."
With a smile, Macaque reached for BQ to pat her head to act as if congratulating her. But BQ saw this and the memory of the spider robot flashed over the face of Macaque.
BQ quickly panicked upon seeing this before unleashing a clumsy punch onto Macaque with enough force to send the monkey flying. BQ froze as she realized what she had done.
Thankfully, Macaque made it back to the ground back from the sky with a crash, causing a crater to form where he landed. He had an unhappy smile on his face as he thought back to BQ's punch. It looked slippy to Macaque, VERY slow and seemed to not have much force behind it so he decided to not dodge. He never expected it to send him flying.
"Alright, that one hurt. I'll give you that." Said Macaque with a grin as he ignored how much his ribs hurt.
The monkey dashed towards BQ for an attack towards her head expecting her to dodge so he could reply with a follow up attack. But BQ didn't budge. She didn't even try to block.
Macaque's eyes widened as his fist connected with her head for no damage whatsoever before he dodged a punch from BQ and hopped over her. This interaction told him a head on fight was unwinnable. So he had to get creative.
But that meant they had to change scenery. Macaque created a portal under BQ as he took a portal away as well.
Both portals lead to one place, the mountain range where Macaque last fought Wukong. But while one portal lead to solid ground, the other lead to a long fall to the top of one of the mountains.
Macaque used this aerial advantage and summoned his giant shadow clone before using it to punch BQ into the mountain below her.
"Why are you still here?!" Exclaimed BQ angrily as she got some footing under the giant clone's attack.
"Hey, it's nothing personal." Replied Macaque cheerfully. "Don't start a fight you can't finish next time!"
BQ grit her teeth as she pushed her body which was running purely on chi to push back against Macaque and so it did. The giant clone's fist was pushed back before BQ clutched it with both hands and pulled with all her strength.
Macaque didn't expect to be suddenly pulled down to BQ's level. He grit his teeth as he saw BQ ready to catch him before her hands suddenly went limp, allowing Macaque to escape the attack safely as the giant clone dissipated into nothingness.
Macaque sweat dropped in relief as he landed behind BQ. He quickly turned around to deal with any attack BQ was about to throw at him only to see her on the ground curled into a ball and holding her head and trembling. His sensitive ears could make out sobs and the words "it hurts" coming out from her mouth nonstop.
Macaque was... confused. Was this really the same girl that he was losing to a second ago? He decided to take a closer look and saw BQ turning to stone.
"What the-" he asked in confusion before he sensed it. The parts turning to stone didn't have any energy in them, no chi.
Macaque quickly realized what was going on. The girl wasn't bullying weaker demons for fun, but to take their chi to survive. The monkey began to panic as he realized BQ was dying.
"Kid!" He called out hoping BQ would listen as she tried shaking her awake, but she was still in a trance shaking, sobbing and muttering. "Kid, wake up! Kid! You really need to calm down or else you're gonna die!"
BQ didn't respond, causing Macaque to panic even more. He needed to give BQ chi quickly, but how? Suddenly, he remembered BQ's invulnerability to attacks and got an idea. He covered BQ in shadow like appendages made from his powers and just as he suspected, they began to disappear along with some of BQ's petrification.
And so, Macaque continued to do this until BQ had a sufficient amount of chi and luckily, this seemed to calm down BQ which prompted Macaque to sigh in relief.
"I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you don't wanna talk about the what just happened." Said Macaque with a smile, prompting a tired and shaking BQ to nod slowly. "But from what I can tell, you're used to relying on your absorption. Whatever made you freeze must've been pretty recent and I'm guessing it's why you have those eye bags too."
BQ paused before nodding slowly, causing Macaque to sigh in disappointment as his smile turned into a frown. "You're how old now? Not old enough." He said in a serious tone. "You can't deal with this alone. Ask your brother for help or something, I don't know. Just don't leave it as is."
BQ paused. "Can you...help?" She asked hopefully.
Macaque was the only one who currently knew about everything. If she wanted to keep everything under wraps, he's the person to ask. Plus, he didn't pity her.
Macaque chuckled. "Look, kid. I'm not qu-" he said before BQ cut him off.
"It'll be like you're...my mentor!" Said BQ donning a determined tone. "Monkey King has a student, why shouldn't you? Don't act like MK counts as your student."
Macaque rolled his eyes. "So, my job will be teaching you how to deal with your issues?" He asked raising a brow. "That's not a mentor, that's a therapist."
"Ehhh, let's call it...spiritual mentor." Said BQ with a nervous smile. "Aaaand you get to stick it to Wukong by having the stronger student! Don't you wanna do that?"
"Maybe a little, but that's not the point." Replied Macaque scratching the back of his head. "I'm not exactly the best at this stuff, are you sure you want me?"
BQ nodded vigorously, causing Macaque to sigh. Just as he was about to agree, BQ collapsed forcing the monkey to catch her.
Macaque groaned before opening a portal to Megapolis. Day one and being a mentor already felt like a chore.

Inside BQ's apartment.
BQ groggily opened her eyes to see the ceiling of her bedroom. She was in her house. She got out of bed and opened the door to see MK and his friends in her apartment taking care of her and the place.
"What...is going on?" She asked in confusion.
MK, upon seeing her, immediately stabbed a spoon filled with soup into her mouth like a spear.
"Oh, no! Don't say a thing, young lady!" Exclaimed MK angrily. "Hide being sick again and you'll be grrrrounded! Now go back to bed!"
BQ raised a brow in confusion. "A friend of yours called us and told you were sick and that being sick makes you suuuperr grumpy." Said Mei cheerfully.
BQ smiled as she realized who the friend was before turning to MK. "Thanks, but you guys should probably go n-"
Before BQ could finish, MK grabbed her and threw her onto her bed. "Nope! You'll stay in the bed!" He exclaimed angrily.
"But what if I nee- I mean, want to go grab some demon powers to eat? I'd kill before-"
"You can NIBBLE on Sandy!" MK exclaimed angrily.
"What? But he-"
"I don't mind!" Said Sandy from another room.
Without any way out, BQ stayed in her bed as she was subjected to the form of mental torture known as love.
And at some point she wondered how many of them, including Macaque, saw the Macaque posters in her room
