PART 8 ITS TIME TO FINALLY TALK ABOUT KENSHI LOSING HIS EYES !!!

Originally I was going to do my usual analysis style for this scene but I mean we’ve all seen it- I don’t think there’s a whole lot I can say that hasn’t been said already (I will almost definitely do it anyways later) so instead I want to take this time to draw comparisons between this scene and a scene of Jacqui and Takeda from MKX.

Takeda x Jacqui: When the Kombat kids are teamed up against Kotal, Erron Black, Ermac and Reptile, Takeda notices Reptile attempt to apprehend Jacqui and immediately warns her. Unfortunately this leads to Reptile spitting venom directly into his eyes, temporarily blinding him (like father like son). Jacqui then overpowers Reptile and is the one to wash the acid out of Takedas eyes, which is followed by a tender moment between the two- they’re surrounded by hell and yet they find the time to be alone and (canonically) fall in love.

Kenshi x Johnny: when attempting to free Mileena from Shang Tsung, Mileenas Tarkat takes over and causes Kenshi to call Johnny over for help (who’s eager to do so). The two play hot potato with her for a while until she eventually overpowers the two and stabs Kenshis eyes out. When Syzoth offers medicine later, Johnny is the one to apply it to Kenshi and relieve his “excruciating” pain. Again, though surrounded by hell, they find the time to be alone together (this is the second time now) and share an intimate moment (they’re literally locked in a cell with two other people and still Johnny made the application process so personal and ugghhhhh). This is a major turning point for their relationship so I’ll talk more about it later but just know I am excited to get into this!!!

Anyways I hadn’t seen anybody point this out yet! Maybe it’s bc they kinda abandoned the Takeda x Jacqui subplot so people just forgot about it but I really liked them !

thinking a lot right now how kabru’s fascination/obsession with humans makes him such a ruthless fighter against them in the same way that laios is so effective against monsters because he studies up on them endlessly

i haven’t seen anyone talk about it yet but medusa’s actress is so insanely talented?? most of her face is veiled but she did an AMAZING job at portraying the subtle changes in her emotions like “not him. me” DESTROYED me you can tell how strongly she feels about the subject but also how she’s trying to keep her cool and appear calm and collected to these kids and tell them of the ways their parents suck

headcanon that percy's most reoccurring nightmare about tartarus is the one where he loses annabeth to the pit. the one where he trips over the rogue lace of his left shoe and misses her fingers by centimeters. the one where his hands get clammy due to nerves and she slips out of his grasp. the one where they descend over the cliff together but he isn't strong enough to hold the weight of arachne. the one where she uses her knife to slice his palm and catch him off-guard so she can wiggle free. and the one where she's bleeding from the wound on her head. begging him not to tamper with fate. to let the prophecy play out. and a silent conversation passes between them. an 'i love you' and 'goodbye' in the same breath. and he stares into her eyes for what he knows is the last time and lets go. the one where he has to watch annabeth sacrifice herself to save the world.
