Late night rants GRGRH I think most of you don't grasp how insane wacky I am about Ted, which is fair, only my mutuals/friends are aware of my insane wacky idiot behavior when it comes to him but like.

how on earth am I not diagnosed with anything. this stupid paranoid white man takes up every inch of my brain space. he's digging holes he is EATING AWAY!!!

i don't think you guys get it my hyperfixation on him is so strong that I can't even produce content for/about him half the time because I have like 7 things involving him I wanna draw but I can't pick and so I just go days without drawing anything IT'S SO BAD.

obligatory insane Ted rant okay bye off to continue fanfic writing

How about Rain (MK)? Do you know anything about him? I looked up some stuff about him and on google it says his real name is Robert but Shao Kahn calls him Jerrod. Also what do you think about him? What type of lover or f buddy would he be? Would it be hard for him to fall in love and how would he react when breakup happens. Sorry imma bit weird but I love and adore you and whatever you say is true for me 🥹 I love you

I-I'm not sure where to start with this one? First, off I seriously doubt Rain's real name is Robert, not when his half brothers are named Taven and Daegon, and his dad is names Argus who's a god. Also, Shao Kahn calling him Jerrod is kind of hilarious but that's the name of Sindel's first husband and the original King of Edenia, so I also doubt it's Rain's name. The name Robert comes from a totally bogus, made-up fan wiki and is in no way shape, or form associated with actual Mortal Kombat games or lore, so please forget you ever came across it.

As for what I think about him, for a hot min maybe when I was around 12, Rain was actually my favorite MK kharacter, so much so that I actually made him the brother of my MK OC Ice for a while. Later when it was revealed Rain was a half-god it didn't make much sense for them to be related as Ice is a pure-blood cryomancer, but I digress I really liked him a lot. His roundhouse kick in UMK3 was my absolute favorite and I spammed it all the time. lol I also really liked him in Defenders of the Realm and shipped him and Kitana hard before I even knew what shipping was, I was devastated when Rain betrayed Kitana and sided with Mileena, but now I don't really care. It doesn't really bother me anymore because all I really care about is will the garbage writers give Bi-Han a fucking chapter in MK12 or not?! JFC what does it take to get a fucking crumb of content that isn't Bi-Han being a useless jobber?! RARGH! Sorry, sorry, got off topic, we're talking about Rain. Long story short I like him, a lot even still and was super thrilled when he was announced as DLC then got super bummed cause he looks like dog shit in MK11 IMO but then again I guess this is after Rain got burnt to shit by Kotal and is post recovery Rain? I'm not sure, long rant averted I don't like bald or nearly bald guys so that pretty much ruined him for me. He has great TIDS though so that's super important to me as a thirsty hoe, so overall I still really like Rain, but not as much as I did circa 1996.

What kind of fuck buddy would he be? A selfish one, let's be honest here he's a prince and half-god and he never shuts up about it, he would expect you to worship the ground he walks on. He still eats pussy/sucks dick though, he's not that big of an asshole he just rarely goes out of his way to make things about you when he'd rather have things be about him. You just know the asshole is into edging too, he wants you to be a complete and utter crying mess when he finally has mercy on you and lets you finish.

I do think it would be very hard for Rain to fall in love and it would have to be the right person, he's an arrogant piece of shit (affectionate) just like Bi-Han is, but that doesn't mean they're incapable of love, they just haven't met the right person yet. Well Bi-Han has, he has me, after all, LOL but if you're all about Rain I'm sure under the right circumstances he'd fall in love with you. He'd love hard too, with all his being and he'd be sooooo possessive, you are his, utterly, you can't even talk to other men/women/nbs. He was abandoned by his father and his mother died, so you're all he has, it's not like Taven and Daegon opened their arms to him and wanted one big happy family. So you're all he has, he'll do anything to keep you happy and by his side.

Breakups? Just don't. No one wants to pay for the damages that electricity storm will cause.

This got a little rambly and a little long, but hopefully, I answered most of what you were looking for lovely, and thank you for the compliments.

Ted rant bc I haven't done one in a moment and I have to uphold my status as #1 Ted enjoyer and enthusiast

I still claw at the walls and floor every time I see Ted's character dumbed down or simplified (IT'S FINE IF IT'S FOR JOKES BUT LIKE... I'm worried some of you are serious when you start saying all he did was use women..... did we read the same backstory.........)

I feel like a lot of his backstory and how he GOT to the point of essentially being a full-time playboy just gets. overlooked. Like he didn't just wake up one day and decide to scam women NO!! It was a "choice" made after an awful childhood!!! And after pretty much getting groomed!!! I put choice in quotation marks because he literally didn't have even a high school education so he could either slave away on his family farm until he died (he already spent his ENTIRE childhood working for his family!!) OR he could use the skills he was taught over the 5 years he spent with that now dead rich woman!!! Like what would you choose if we're being honest???

To be clear, it doesn't excuse or defend his actions but like I am BEGGING for ya'll to just. at least make an effort to put yourself in his shoes. yeah idk maybe the guy who's been using his body as a sex object for rich older women since he was 19 might have a warped view on sex!!!! Maybe that explains why he's confused and upset when he doesn't get any "return" because it's always been transactional for him!!!! Crazy thought ik!!!!

again it does not excuse or defend anything but looking into his backstory can at least help you understand what his likely mental reasoning for everything is rather than just dumbing him down to a misogynistic asshole. Ted has LAYERS and you WILL look at them! GRR!!! Ted doodles to accompany this (my mildly altered design for him)

I haven't drawn him and Aubrey together in a hot second so have them actually liking each other hehe I love Ted you guys don't get it YOU DON'T GET HIM LIKE I DO!! RARGH!!

anyway it's 11:25 PM uhhhh hit post
