Question. What If there is a love square between Tomas, Jade, cyrax and kotal?
I dunno, love squares are a bit of a mess and I don't know how they work most of the time😅
Regarding love in general for these four characters, I'll start by saying I've fully come in terms that my true OTP for Kotal is actually D'Vorah🫣 I really liked their pre-betrayal dynamic, when I thought D'Vorah was being genuine! I'm a sucker for Royal x Knight couples (SubScorp, FrozenBlossom and Taleena for once) and as unsettlingly as D'Vorah is, this one also had me for a while!
Do for starters, my idea of Love square would be everyone thinking Jade and Kotal have a thing for each other but actually Kotal is head of heels in love with D'Vorah and Jade is his reluctant wingwoman, lmao!
D'Vorah: *is being D'Vorah*
Kotal, sighing dreamily: Isn't she perfect?
Jade:
Now for Jade, Tomas and Cyrax, I'm normally more of a JadeSmoke gal, but I can totally get behind SmokeBomb (that's my ship name for Tomas x Cyrax) and I would most definitely get behind a trouple!
Imagine, Harumi is trying her hardest to make JadeSmoke happen, and upon seeing her struggle and frustration, Cyrax offers her help!
She tries throwing them hints that "someone perfect for them might be right under their noses and they just need to pay more attention to them" and the duo actually put on some thought to what she says...
Harumi: So how is operation JadeSmoke going?👀
Cyrax: Oh, they sure are dating...
Harumi: That's great--
Cyrax: Me.
Harumi: ... what?
Cyrax: They are dating me. They are both dating me, I'm dating them and Jade's OCD had to finish the triangle so they are also dating each other.
Harumi:
Cyrax: So mission accomplished, I guess...
Harumi: Yay!
As Harumi is polycule queen, she would definitely support her friends' polycules!😌💅🏾
I dunno if that's what you're asking, but here we go!😅

This right here is my childhood. Childhood videogame (even though I only played 1). Getting straight into this, I will only be using MK9, X, 11 and 1 since I've never seen Armageddon, Deadly Alliance etc and am quite frankly too lazy to go look. Not to mention that all the main characters that I'm writing for are all mostly in those games, so here they are.
I will be using all variants of the in-game and movie (animation + live) characters of all MK games (i.e: Cyber Sub-Zero, Revenant Kung Lao). I will not be writing for any comic variants because I have never read them.

Mileena Zoldyck
[Warning: This is a long post]
I just want to rant about this story I came up with when I was 15-16 where instead of being killed by D'Vorah, Mileena is banished to a different realm, which is the Hunter realm (HxH). She joins Gon and Killua on their adventure, and becomes fiance to Illumi all the while trying to make Meteor City become a kingdom by trying to gain rulership of it. I'm actually half lying because I don't want to acknowledge the weirdness of the original plot. I also wrote this before the whole "Sindel was evil this whole time" thing, so she's still under Quan Chi's spell somehow because I actually like good Sindel. Also came up with it before Mileena was added to the game so I pictured the mkx version when coming up with ideas.
The whole making a kingdom out of Meteor city thing is because I figured Mileena would be drawn to it, she won't give up being queen that easily and if she's stuck in this realm she might as well make due with what she can. The whole concept of Meteor City is that it's a place that is not only not recognised in the map, but it is a country that is a junkyard filled with, outcasts and inhabitants that have no record of existing. Any trash could be abandoned there including people (children). Only few people know of Meteor City's existence which has played an advantage for the mafia to hire the inhabitants as assassins and hitmen. The inhabitants also have a strong bond with each other. If I did not explain well then please check the wiki page for better information. Mileena herself is an outcast and was an assassin, and growing up in Outworld, a place that isn't very friendly, Meteor City would probably be like a walk in the park.
"We'll accept anything you leave here, but don't ever take anything away from us." - Meteor City's motto.
The goal isn't to take anything away from Meteor City, but to reform it. Change it, using the bond that the inhabitants have for each other and the large population against them. According to the wiki it is ruled by an assembly of elders so I'm not sure how easy it would be for her to take over. I'm not sure if she will rule fairly either, considering she is spoken poorly of when her being a Kahn is brought up. She wasn't massacring tribes like Kotal, so I'm not sure.
When I came up with this idea it was right when mk11 came out. It was another one of those things where I come up with loads of ideas but end up not writing anything. I was super annoyed that Mileena wasn't in the game and read a Naruto x Mortal Kombat fanfic where Mileena is the mother of Hinata, and figured "why don't I make my own version but with HxH". To be honest, mk11 Mileena just feels like a continuation of mk9's Mileena, not mkx. Mkx seemed more mature and adapted out of being a server and to a position of leadership (to some extent).
Nen type: Specialist
Nen abilities
Shadows - The ability to make clones of herself (This ability has set backs as the clones are more of an illusion and cannot make physical contact with objects. If they appear to a non nen user then they appear blurred)
Midnight Pretenders - The ability to make her face look more human and less Tarkatan (ability lasts for no more that 2 hours and cannot be used at the same time as another ability)
Queen - Armour that enhances her abilities and protects her from attacks, and even gives her a pair of sais (armour looks more Edenian than Outworld) The outfit was made by playing a dress up game.
Made up intros
Killua: You're getting married to Illumi?
Mileena: The agreement was that your family will let you be free to make your own choices.
Killua: You should know that it won't be that easy.
Illumi: Your father does not approve of me.
Mileena: Your mother doesn't approve of me.
Illumi: If you stop insulting her then perhaps she will grow fond of you.
Kikyo: You belong in Kukurou mountain with us.
Mileena: Don't you hail from Meteor City yourself?
Kikyo: It was in our family's best interest.
Silva: You are the perfect wife for Illumi.
Mileena: Only because Killua does not want to be heir.
Silva: Killua will change his mind.
Zeno: Shang Tsung warned me you are a clone.
Mileena: Here to tell me I'm a perversion of nature, grandfather?
Zeno: I'm here to test you, as Illumi's fiance.
Mileena: How are things between you and Ging?
Gon: Things have been fun, Mily-san.
Mileena: For his sake, it better.
Kurapika: Is it true that you're going to marry Illumi?
Mileena: I saw an opportunity and stepped in. Forgive me.
Kurapika: Just remember, Killua is our friend.
Mileena: A zodiac, eh? May prosperity continue.
Leorio: Stop, you're making me blush.
Mileena: How do you do it, Leorio?
Mileena: Meteor City is home to many assassins.
Frost: Are you saying I must take it from you?
Mileena: I want your help rebuilding and protecting it.
Mileena: Meteor City welcomes you.
Kabal: I'm not an outcast, Mileena.
Mileena: The entire Black Dragon are outcasts.
Mileena: So all of that, and Tanya is dead?
Kano: You want someone to blame, look in the mirror.
Mileena: It was your job to kill Kotal.
Mileena: When I gained the throne you abandoned it.
Erron Black: Aw, are you upset, Princess?
Mileena: At everyone who has betrayed me, yes.
Raiden: Your actions cost lives, Mileena.
Mileena: It is not my fault you involved yourselves in my affairs.
Raiden: You disguise your conquest as charity.
Sub Zero: You've learned better self control.
Mileena: Tarkatan blood makes me the perfect savage.
Sub Zero: Savage enough to join the Zoldycks?
Scorpion: A wasteland is now your home.
Mileena: Still on Quan Chi's leash?
Scorpion: I wasn't trying to insult you, Mileena.
Jade: Kotal being Kahn must still burn you.
Mileena: I am Outworld's true ruler!
Jade: Save your slobber, dog.
Liu Kang: You are more like Shao Kahn than Kitana.
Mileena: In all the ways that matter, I am.
Liu Kang: You shouldn't be flattered, Mileena.
Kung Lao: Illumi chooses wives poorly.
Mileena: Shut up and die, shaolin.
Kung Lao: Touched a nerve, have I?
Mileena: The inhabitants of Meteor City are off limits.
Baraka: There must be a flesh trade if we are to be allied.
Mileena: Oh Baraka, not even I would feed off of them. The mafia on the other hand.
Mileena: Meteor City does not have any riches.
Kollector: It's riches are through you, Princess.
Mileena: My father has no claim to it, Kollector.
Mileena: Your flesh looks tempting.
Johnny: Yeah, everyone wants a piece of me.
Mileena: Too bad. I'm getting married.
Mileena: Face the might of Meteor City.
Cassie: You haven't changed a single bit.
Mileena: I do not intent to.
Sonya: Kronika's trying to screw you over, Mileena.
Mileena: No one here deserves my obedience.
Sonya: Seriously not liking this idea.
Jax: We have Shang Tsung to thank for you?
Mileena: Your opinion does not matter.
Jax: I only state facts.
Jacqui: Your mother in law is quite the nightmare.
Mileena: Can you relate, Jacqueline Briggs?
Jacqui: With me and Takeda? Dad won't give us a break.
Ermac: When Kotal sent you to a far away realm I didn't picture this.
Mileena: You are not welcome to the hunters realm.
Ermac: I do not wish to go there.
Reptile: You run in circles, Mileena.
Mileena: In what way, treacherous snake?
Reptile: By taking hold of a kingdom that is not yours to take.
Noob Saibot: Kronika promises you a kingdom.
Mileena: Meteor City needs me.
Noob Saibot: Outworld snickers at your weakness.
D'Vorah: Kotal Kahn should have killed you.
Mileena: An action that will make you incredibly pleased.
D'Vorah: As it would, you disgusting clone.
Cetrion: You took advantage of the Chimera ant invasion.
Mileena: I should always take advantage of something.
Cetrion: There's no virtue in taking cities.
Geras: Tarkatans have a history of servitude.
Mileena: That will not stop me from ruling my kingdom.
Geras: Your kingdom? Meteor City is a breeding ground for low borns.
Kotal: You belong with Baraka, Mileena.
Mileena: I belong in Meteor City, usurper.
Kotal: Your blood is Tarkatan, not that of realm.
Mileena: Leave Alluka out of this.
Kotal: She holds power you cannot be trusted with.
Mileena: She is not to be touched by anyone.
Skarlet: Meteor City is an ugly home.
Mileena: The people there are just like us.
Skarlet: Define your meaning of us, Mileena.
Kitana: Make no mistake, you are a monster.
Mileena: Yet, I am still alive.
Kitana: Under whose authority?
Sindel: You claim to not love Illumi, yet you see yourself in him.
Mileena: I did not wish to control my sister.
Sindel: Then why have you agreed to start a family with him?
Nightwolf: Meteor City wasn't yours to take.
Mileena: It is my duty to turn it into a better place.
Nightwolf: But are you the queen it needs?
Fujin: You're a clone, Shao Kahn is not your father.
Mileena: It matters not. I am Mileena Zoldyck now.
Fujin: My heart overflows with pity for you.
Rain: What is this Phantom Troupe?
Mileena: Unlike you, they are not treacherous to Meteor City.
Rain: They will serve me if they know what's best for them.
Mileena: You are not touching a hair on Kalluto's head.
Rain: Replaced Kitana already?
Mileena: Kalluto is family.
Sheeva: It's not enough to stay my hand.
Mileena: You don't want to be allied with Meteor City?
Sheeva: In the end you betrayed Goro.
Shang Tsung: An invisible hand must guide Outworld.
Mileena: I have no place in Outwold, I will be ruling Meteor City.
Shang Tsung: Nevertheless, I will be the power behind the throne.
Shao Kahn: Come back to your family.
Mileena: I have failed you, father.
Shao Kahn: Even so, our family is not complete.
Zoldyck Bonus
Illumi: Oh, you're Mileena's mother.
Sindel: You better treat her well, assassin.
Illumi: Every Zoldyck must honour their partner.
Kitana: What do you see in Mileena?
Illumi: She understands the Zoldycks traditions as assassins.
Kitana: Only someone like you would wed themselves to someone like her.
Illumi: Your abilities are very impressive.
Skarlet: You are heavily impressed?
Illumi: Hisoka is going to like you a lot.
Liu Kang: Your wickedness makes me sick to my stomach.
Illumi: I'm glad my blood lust warns you.
Liu Kang: It is not something to be proud of.
Illumi: You created my fiance.
Shang Tsung: I am certain she will function as any other woman.
Illumi: If not... you will splice our DNA.
Shang Tsung: Let me see those needles of yours.
Illumi: Nen cannot simply be stolen.
Shang Tsung: Your friend Chrollo says otherwise.
Shao Kahn: What are your intentions with my daughter?
Illumi: She will give birth to many future Zoldycks.
Shao Kahn: If this is true you will die.
Illumi: I do not have advice to give you, Bi Han.
Noob Saibot: We have much in common, Illumi.
Illumi: Your interest in Skarlet is between the two of you.
Shao Kahn: Aid me against Kronika.
Silva: You are going to con me.
Shao Kahn: Where did you get that idea?
Sindel: I heard Mileena's been giving you quite the run around.
Kikyo: How could you have raised such a vile girl?
Sindel: Careful how you speak.
Gon: You're one of Mileena's big sisters, I'm guessing.
Skarlet: What gave it away?
Gon: I know those hungry eyes from anywhere.
Gon: You don't deserve to be Mileena's older sister.
Kitana: That clone is not fit to live.
Gon: You're worse than Illumi.
Kitana: You and Mileena are friends?
Killua: We don't get along, but Gon likes her.
Kitana: Children are very naive.
Zeno: Mileena is much like Kikyo.
Shang Tsung: Is that a problem?
Zeno: So long as Mileena gets on her nerves, no.
Zeno: You cannot embrace being old?
Shang Tsung: I prefer more bearable appearances.
Zeno: Then you haven't embraced dying.

Just some imagined intros for MK11
Because it’s nearly midnight, I got some feels/thirsty thoughts that needed to be let out of my system before I go to sleep, and my word, I can’t believe the amount of wind-related intros that Fujin spouts or gets spouted at him.
@the-06 Tried to keep some of these under ten syllables per line, but my tired thirsty brain. Enjoy anyway! X’’P
*~*~*~*~*
Johnny Cage: You can call me Nicolas Cage. D’Vorah: For what purpose? Johnny Cage: ‘Cause I’m not about the bees today, honey.
Johnny Cage: So you’re a, heh, “arms” dealer. Kollector: Your humour is unprofitable. Johnny Cage: Who d’you think I am, Dane Cook?
Cassie Cage: Can I be your maid of honour? Jacqui Briggs: Not sure I even want you at the wedding. Cassie Cage: Geez, you’re a worse bridezilla than my dad.
Kotal Kahn: I wish for your nephew to join my council. Kung Lao: That is a clear path to failure. Kotal Kahn: A path you’ve traversed before, it seems.
Kitana: I can see you as a queen consort. Liu Kang: I will fight for my own hand. Kitana: Deny me, and that will be all that is left of you.
Erron Black: Can’t believe you’re steppin’ out with a cop. Kabal: And screwing a monk isn’t weird? Erron Black: Not when he knows tantric yoga, it ain’t.
Baraka: You will find me to be a formidable warrior. Sonya Blade: Your chompers are already classified as WMD. Baraka: Let me demonstrate their strength upon your face.
Noob Saibot: You align yourself with my murderer. Sub-Zero: Your soul was already dead before Hanzo kombatted you. Noob Saibot: He will render you a husk in time, too.
Jacqui Briggs: You’re kinda hot for a Wind God. Fujin: Do not let Takeda hear you say that! Jacqui Briggs: It’s my bachelorette party – I’mma throw caution to the wind.
Scorpion: You think my chujin is unworthy of Jacqueline? Jax Briggs: 'Specially when he had you to raise him. Scorpion: I reared him for greatness; I’ll end you for his happiness.

Kotal Kahn: “Earthrealm cannot be trusted.”
Anyone with a sense of intelligence: “Outworld has had Shao Kahn as its rulers for centuries, you once had D’Vorah on your team, a great majority of Outworld’s species are bent on conquest, Outworld was the one that both challenged Earthrealm into Mortal Kombat and invaded it afterwards, you have money-comes-first Erron Black on your team, you execute petty food thieves, you were too stupid to think four teenagers would work with D’Vorah to steal Shinnok’s Amulet, and then you tried to kill those four teenagers in order to appease Shinnok despite their innocence and Earthrealm’s peril condition. Outworld’s the realm that couldn’t ever be trusted.”
Kotal Kahn: “.....”
MK Announcer: “FATALITY”

“Here” pt. 4!
Reader’s POV
Two hours later…
“ugh…What the hell happened?”
I sat up in my bed rubbing my pounding head. Erron was seated in the chair next to my bed but crawled onto my bed upon hearing me wake up. Sitting down next to me, he places his fingers on my wrist to check my pulse.
“Hey, are you…what the hell? There’s a black crescent moon on your forehead.”
“There is?”
He grabbed the small jeweled handheld mirror off the end table next to my bed to show me. True to his word, a small black jagged moon was on my forehead above my eyebrows in the center. It made me wonder how it got there. But…I kind of liked it. Placing the mirror down beside me, I finger comb through my hair.
“Shang must have done this. Are you doing all right?”
He had his mask off as I finally got to see what he really looked like. I felt something warm spread across my face but he smiled.
“At least you’re awake. I was well…”
“Hm?”
“Well…nevermind. Its not important. You hungry?”
“A little. Why?”
“Well, the Kahn told me to tell you that if you’re feeling peckish that you can join the banquet.”
“A…banquet? I’ve never attended a banquet before…what should I wear?”
Erron chuckled and got off my bed to present to me a gift box with a silk ribbon tied to it.
“The Kahn had his silk weavers make you something nice to wear for it. I don’t like to get all goody-goody with this kind of thing so here.”
I take the box from him, pulling off the ribbon. Inside was a beautifully knit silk scarf and a headpiece made of gold and silver, a delicate silver moon in the center.
“Its…wow…thank you.”
Erron fixes his hair as he reminded me,
“Also, since the Kahn wants you as his soothsayer, well…he would want you to show off your status to the royal court but it’s your choice. I’ll save you a seat at the dining hall.”
I rise from my bed and place my scarf around my shoulders.
“Where’s the dining hall?”
“Well, since you are of high status now you come with me. He did say he wants me to guard your life at all costs.”
“All right then.”
I put on my shoes as he loaded his pistols. The same ones he used to shoot off my restraints in the Outworld Market. I followed him out of my room and he asked me,
“I gotta know…what made you want to leave Earthrealm?”
“Well, you first.”
Erron sighed as he began in a somber tone,
“I left about a hundred or fifty so years ago. I felt that no one needed a guy like me. I didn’t score points with the ladies, I didn’t fit in anywhere, and I easily shot Jesse James in the dick in a high noon draw. I’ll never forget that.”
His warm brown eyes met mine as he asked,
“Now, what’s your story?”
I gulped as I told him,
“Well, I left because my home was invaded by now I assume Outworld. I remember these…men, with long sharp teeth and blades coming out of their arms. Most of them were bald and hideous-“
He cut me off with a question.
“Ah, stupid Tarkatans. They jump at the chance of invasion. So…what were your folks like?”
I thought for a moment thinking of what I should tell him,
“Well, I had a loving family…a baby sister, my little brother, and I was the oldest. We lived in a little cottage my dad built all by himself. I was an introverted kid and well…my parents died when Earthrealm was invaded. I was only five at the time, my brother was three and my baby sister was six months old.”
Erron asked gently,
“What of your parents?”
“They were loving and kind to all three of us. But those creatures slaughtered my family and kidnapped my baby sister. I was helpless because I was just little. I didn’t know what to do.”
Erron was quiet with his response.
“My father was a cruel son of a bitch. My mom hated me and I was beaten almost daily.”
I felt pity pinch me.
“I’m so sorry…”
“Well, It’s in the past and I wanna keep it there.”
“Okay. But I think you’re a nice guy Erron.”
“Thanks. You’re not so bad yourself. Mousey, a bit of a scaredy cat and a bit clueless but cool.”
His brutal honesty hurts but he’s right.
We approach a large wooden door as the sight of the dining hall came to view. Roasted cattle over an open fire, being rotated on a wooden pole, bowls of exotic fruits from Earthrealm and Outworld, a stuffed turkey, even some finger foods. I could smell exotic teas and what smelled like soups. Musicians bang on large drums as other musicians play various instruments. Dancers sway like leaves around the end of the room. Servants of multiple races served guests and court members eagerly as the smells and sounds made my stomach gurgle.
“Oh I’m so hungry! This looks delicious!” I squeal excitedly.
“Well, lemme show you to your seat.” Erron purred.
He led me to a fancy chair next to the end of the long table, and at the head of the table sat Kotal Kahn eating something pink and jiggly. I take my seat as Erron pulls a napkin off the table and laying it onto my lap.
“Thank you…”
Erron took his hat off setting it on the floor next to his chair. I tried to reach for an apple as the Kahn addressed me,
“Please, allow me.”
“Okay.”
He snapped his fingers as a servant came to his side. He ordered the man to take my plate and fill it with food. Erron waited his turn next to me, and soon, his plate came with ribs and some boiled potatoes. Mine had the same portion but a chilled apple with it
“Thank you Kahn.”
“My pleasure.” the emperor purred. As I ate, I could barely contain myself how delicious the food was. I saw D’Vorah across from me eating something like a pork chop and the same pink jiggly stuff the Kahn was eating. She was smiling feeding her slug creature.
The Kahn must be going through a lot to make me feel welcome…
I sipped my wine one of the servants poured for me as the Kahn rested his arm on the arm of his throne looking at me.
“Is the food adequate my dear?”
“Yes, it is thank you.”
“I’m sure you have many questions.”
I nodded putting my cup down.
“So if you’re the emperor of Outworld, why did you pick a slave to be a soothsayer? And what is a soothsayer?”
Koala Kahn sighed popping a few grapes into his mouth,
“Well, an indigo like you can easily feel things most mortals cannot. You perceive the world differently and you can have psychic visions. I figure you would be a great addition to my court.
It began to make sense now. he continued.
