Kitana muses about her creator
A/N: I'm back lovelies, and this time with a Mortal Kombat snippet. I had this one laying on my docs since like a month after release so enjoy! Requests are open btw
Summary:
"The man tilted his head at her with a smile, standing beside her on the balcony. She turned back at the horizon, resting her arms on the railing and pulling one of her fans, absentmindedly spinning the blades. “Why did you make us?” She asked, finally.
Liu Kang looked at her, puzzled."
or
Kitana doesn't really know how to feel about the alternative versions of herself and Liu Kang.
Contents: Liutana mentions, MK1!Kitana thinking about Titan!Kitana, character study, introspection, Kitana pov. Listen she's been my main since forever im lowkey obsessed with her.

For as long as she could remember, Liu Kang has been there.
Officially, she was very young when she first met him, just old enough to start mingling in court business, what earth realm would define as a teenager.
She remembers he was polite, that he had intense eyes and that he never looked down on her, not that anyone ever dared to, but Liu Kang had something in his eyes that resembled a mixture of pride and pain, as if he was mourning what she could become. He had told her things about earthrealm then, about its champions, its people, then about the outworld, the places she didn’t really step into as a princess. He always had a lot to say. Now she knows why.
"You and my Titan version seem awfully close!" She had mentioned it once, and he refused to elaborate.
Not that he needed to, Kitana had eyes. 
The definite confirmation came in training with an alternative version of herself; an idea given by Liu Kang himself. 
"A god?! He's my consort!" She heard her own words with muted shock, but it made perfect sense now.
It was weird to think about; the fact that in multiple timelines, her and Liu Kang were… together. And it explained the weird glint in his eyes every time he looked at her. The protector of earthrealm had been mourning the lover he thought he lost, while staring at a perfect copy of her. How painful it must have been, she thought as she stared at the sunset.
“Ah, good evening, princess.” Said the subject of her musings, in his usual polite tone. “Am I disturbing you?” 
She turned to face him, the remaining sunlight casting shadows on her face. Liu Kang was a handsome man, and he had always been polite and kind… “Not at all, In fact, I was thinking about you.”
The man tilted his head at her with a smile, standing beside her on the balcony. She turned back at the horizon, resting her arms on the railing and pulling one of her fans, absentmindedly spinning the blades. “Why did you make us?” She asked, finally.
Liu Kang looked at her, puzzled, so she continued; “It brings you pain, I can see it. You look at us and you see eons of history, yet you know it wasn’t really us there, at least not the ones you knew, we are constant reminders of everything you lost, or worse, everything you could have had.”
The god turns away from her, once again silent. He wasn’t angered by her question, that Kitana knew. The silence drags, the sun is almost gone.
“It pains me, yes.” He said, finally. “But it brought me a certain peace, knowing that I could give those I loved a better, more peaceful life. Even if it was in a completely different reality.” Liu Kang looks down at his own hands, Kitana does too. Those hands had created the universe, the realms, created her. “I won’t exactly tell you what happened in the previous timelines, but trust me, it was nothing but pain for all of those I loved, every ounce of happiness we achieved was snatched from us…”
The princess touched the tips of her fan blades. “From us…” she quotes him in a whisper, and again the silence engulfs them for a heavy moment. “I know about you and… the titan me.”
Her creator only let out a soft laugh, almost tender. “Every version of you is too smart for their own good.”
“You are the one who could have made me less smart.” She laughed too, and they turned back to face the last rays of sunshine disappear. “Can you at least be with… the one you love?” Be with me, or titan me, a version of me, was what she taught at first, but it felt too intimate to say, too confusing, she wasn’t his Kitana, and he wasn't the one for her either, not in this reality. 
“Not all the time, as I would wish, but it’s already better than nothing.”
And that’s comfort enough, she thinks, for all of them.

I am not in denial i have no clue what you’re talking about—
I ain’t got a clue what these so called ‘jars’ even look like yet but i sketched a thing out immediately and then at that point my intrigueness started to fade, and then the ref came out and for some reason that boosted my interest even further. But i know what a bird’s brain looks like now so thats something.
I just think she seems very cool
I may have also did some other doodles a week or 2 ago that i didn’t post cause the social of anxiety was kickin in high those days but I’ll put them under the cut if thou wishes to see

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BESTEST WIDDLE SNAKEY WAKEY.
I can't believe my son is 18!! I estimated a birth date for him to be about a month before I got him in fall of 2006, since he was such a widdle month-old baby sneky. I always try to get a good birthday pic of him - especially after he eats and gets the good yawns in.
Pretty soon, he'll be off to snake college, for snakes. Dunno how we're gonna afford those ssssnudent loans.
Image description below the cut:
First photo is an albino corn snake (species name: Pantherophis guttatus) peeking out from behind a fake flower on a rocky hide (a house inside the tank where reptiles can feel secure and hidden). The snake is flicking his tongue out. Only his head is visible in the photo. Caption on the photo reads: Demo's 18th birthday. August 9, 2024.
Next photo is the same snake, but in a clear, close-up, detail photo. Each scale is clearly defined. He has red eyes and pink cheeks, and pale white patterns on an off-white body. The scales on his head are shaped to follow the different planes of his face. The scales on his neck (and body, not shown) are uniform and scallop-shaped.
The next three photos are sequential. The same snake appears with his mouth barely open. Then, his mouth is wide open in a yawn. His cheeks look so smooshy. His head is shaped the way a snap hairclip opens, curved upwards, and it's funny and cute. His mouth has ridges inside, but no teeth or fangs are visible (because his teeth are too tiny to be photographed politely, and he does not have any fangs). The last photo in the sequence has the snake with his mouth still open, but the top of his head is a normal shape again as he begins to end the yawn.

Incoherent Deci dump I did for fun. She's always fun to draw, love her for that dead fish lookin stare she has. Ming dynasty Deci, a bonus Jiangshi deci, and a face study of Caldera (Deci's human self).
I realized when scrounging around google images and pinterest that I dislike looking for outfit refs on it. I love my pictorial dictionary books I use for western inspired historical garb, if anyone has any recommendation for a non-western book about costume designs I would be very grateful ...

Monty: You’ve got a ball of anxiety, an arsonist, a serial killer, and an anarchist.
Lunar: I have 4 big brothers and they all love me! I’m happy!
Monty: You’re so traumatized, you can only sleep while being held.
Lunar: I AM LOVED!
Monty: You are loved.

Dermatillomania + Anxiety(especially of the health kind, usually actually manifesting in health-related obsessions because OCD is so much fun) is such a fucking deadly combo
Because Anxiety increases picking. So you start to pick. And then it’s uneven. And now, your brain’s telling you you HAVE to finish what you started otherwise it will heal wrong the skin will grow back wrong you will get infected and it will be bumpy and stick up and just be like that forever
So, naturally you pick and you pick until uh oh! Pain! Redness! Light swelling! You’re infected! You like said appendage/body part? Haha well no more :3 It will most certainly get infected, and they’ll probably have to amputate! You hear me? You’ll loose it. You’ll loose it. You will wither and rot away and there’s nothing you can do about it. You won’t be able to do the things you love anymore. Because you’ll loose it. Can you feel the infection creeping up your veins? It’s spreading. It’s spreading. If you don’t check. If you don’t go to the ER, you might even loose more of the body part! You need to go get it checked. You need to go get it checked. YOU’RE GOING TO LOOSE IT. IT’S INFECTED. IT’S ROTTING.

I'd love to be able to make money by making drawings but I'd have to practice drawing things that aren't the same two characters in the same few poses first before I even consider that option
But also doing practice suuuucks (I say as if I've ever actually done art practice in my life)

here's a PSA for u
if ur dr ever tries to prescribe u hydroxyzine for anxiety or panic attacks
don't fuckin take it bc it does nothing for anxiety. it just knocks you out like a sack of bricks. it won't actually calm you, it's a legit sedative that makes you functionally a zombie for at least 36 hours
so if ur like me and need to take smth like in the middle of the day... such as during work or school... it's not gonna help at all lmao you'll be incapacitated
this has been a PSA from me, mr not a doctor
