The MK pipeline from “You really think the universe wants anything, from any of us?” to “Until I know what I am, what my destiny is? I can’t risk hurting the people I care about—the ones I have left.” is actually fucking wild.
Like, the place his character starts is believing that he couldn’t possibly be *anything* special or be the one to make that positive impact on the world. Then we have our beloved “to pain” scene, and MK ruminates on the Lady Bone Demon’s words—after all, his greatest power is self reflection. So we go from MK hoping to use his position “for good” to believing he’s “the one always getting the world in trouble”. Whatever his role in the story is, it always negative. It’s not enough or too much. It’s the universe not wanting anything or wanting him to bring about total suffering.
#MK's arc of self acceptance keeps going back and forth and back and forth and it is so JUICY#Fucking love the trigram furnace scene I owe that scene my life#The writers are so evil. ''Let's have MK learn to love himself a little in Revenge of the Spider Queen. Then FUCK YOU. MINOR SCALE''#LBD really did irreparable damage to MK's perception of himself.#''Picked the wrong successor'' was the worst thing you could have done.#AND IT WASN'T EVEN TRUE#MK when will you learn that your doubts are unfounded and your self-hatred is lying to you#Your friends love you. No one knows what they're doing. Everyone causes pain by just existing.#Life must sustain itself on decay.#It's not always you baby#It's okay#lmk#lego monkie kid#monkie kid#lmk mk#lmk s4#lmk analysis#lmk rant
