МК1 AU, where Hanzo Hasashi is not rebirthed, but some people feel an inexplicable longing for a person who does not exist
[Harumi Shirai] The Fire Gardens... The most beautiful place she had never seen before.
Harumi was only nine years old when she ran away from home for the first time to admire the fireworks. It was the only thing that could distract her from the regular exhausting trainings. The colourful lights were mesmerising, whilst the laughter and smells coming from across the river beckoned her to break her parents' prohibitions. Such moments made her sad that she had been born a clan heiress.
She longed for freedom.
When it was time to head back, Harumi decided to take a shortcut. However, when she realised that she was lost, she had no choice but to follow an unfamiliar stoney trail heading to an unknown place.
The dead silence and the dark shadow looming over her frightened her deeply. Yet she kept walking until she suddenly caught sight of lanterns ahead. Rejoicing at her good fortune, the girl quickened her step.
This was the first time Harumi found herself in this enchanting place.
Flowers were at the peak of their bloom as they beautifully shimmered in gold and ruby. Thin dangling branches bent gently over a small lake, in its sparkling water swam tiny fish.
Harumi was fascinated by the lovely surroundings, laughing heartily as the fireflies danced around her and the birds sang happily. Tired from her long walk, she sat down by an old red willow tree, hiding under its flowering vines. The silence that had so frightened her was replaced by enchanting sounds that slowly drifted her into a slumber.
She wished that she could stay here forever.
She felt that she was safe here.
Someone was holding her, protecting her from everything…
After many years, she would always return to this place. Harumi had grown used to the Fire Gardens as her shelter, feeling an unknown force wrapping her in a protective blanket and hiding her from the world.
And at the same time, sitting under the willow tree, she couldn't stop crying, as if she had lost someone dear to her heart for eternity.
She never told anyone how much her heart ached when a small pale shadow clung to her chest, seeking warmth and care, and another, larger and darker one hugged her from behind and bitterly whispered, "I'm sorry."
P.S. Still hesitating if I should do Bihanzo...

Can you write about Smoke and the reader celebrating their 1 year anniversary together as a couple?
A/N: of course my friend I’ll do it! I’m in a lovey mood as well since my bf and I love playing MK1 together (rip me I play Smoke and he plays Liu Kang/Scorpion) It’s a “date” thing for us 💖
Warnings: none. Just fluff (and use of Y/N) plus Hanzo being an adorable little brother
Smokey Love
“Hey! Raiden! Toss me up there won’t ya?!”
Y/n’s eyes opened to stare at the ceiling, feeling the weight and comfort of someone sleeping next to her. The voices outside the wall were loud, the walls thin enough to hear the footsteps from feet away.
“It’s too early.” Tomas mumbled next to her
“I know but we have to get up. Come on love.”
You pulled on Tomas’ arm, holding his hand while he played dead so he could go back to sleep. Nobody, except usually Kung Lao, Raiden, Johnny, and Kenshi would be up at this hour.
“Love, come on, get up. Kuai is looking for us.”
“Fineeeeee.”
Tomas was not a morning person, he’d much prefer laying the day away with you in his arms or maybe even made her something to eat. But today, today was different, and you had something planned.
“My sweet I need to find Liu Kang. He’s been wanting to speak to me about something.”
Tomas sat up, rubbing his eyes was a yawn. He had been to bed late, way later than usual. Maybe that was because of his brother, or maybe it was because of Hanzo, the little boy who lived with you all at the Shirai Ryu.
“I’ll be back dear.”
So you walked out the door, throwing over a grey and white kimono quickly, making sure to look presentable for Kuai and his wife Harumi. Apparently, they had a plan for you and Tomas for today.
“Y/n!”
Little Hanzo came running down the hall, almost colliding with you, almost making you stumble. He was happy to see you, maybe that was because Hanzo either saw you as a big sister or maybe even a mom.
“Good morning Hanzo how did you sleep?”
His smile was wide, his eyes shining with that childlike joy as if he got the best news ever. He was a kid, and he’d even said Kuai and Tomas were like his older brothers. Finally, Tomas wasn’t the youngest, at least that’s what everyone kept joking about.
“Oh I had the best dream! It was me and Scorpion and Smoke and we went on an adventure. You were there too! And we fought some bad guys. You and Smoke were so strong! Scorpion was too, but not as strong as you Miss Y/n!”
Hanzo was bright for his age, very determined to do right by everyone living at the Shirai Ryu. Even you would forget that he’s still a kid, but his childhood ended when he became an orphan, so the four of you decided to try and make his life easier.
“Hanzo are you bothering Y/n again?”
Harumi appeared from another room, dressed in comfortable clothes but similar to a warriors outfit like when she goes off into battle.
“The boys woke you up again?” She teased
“When do they not?”
You both laughed, remembering how young Raiden and Kung Lao were too. Not that much younger than you, but the two of them were like children. And what were they doing at this very second? Oh that’s right they were helping Johnny shoot something on the roof.
“Now you see here gentlemen if I can do this properly and have Raiden shoot me with lightning, then it’ll look like he pushed me off.”
“This is stupid Johnny.”
“Come on Kenshi this is genius!”
“You two are the stupidest guys I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.”
Kung Lao and Johnny wanted to do whatever this was, meanwhile Kenshi and Raiden were not on board.
“Hey! You four! You better not let me catch you slacking!” Harumi yelled at the four men
Their heads perked up, immediately running the opposite direction, back to wherever the other initiates were.
“Boys will be boys I guess.”
“At least Kuai is more well behaved than them.”
“Not when his brother is messing with him.”
Some time later…
Madam Bo’s restaurant was a relaxing idea for a dinner between the five of you. Of course you brought Hanzo along, he’s your family too! Just two couples on an evening out with a kid as well. Hanzo was well behaved out, but maybe that’s because he’s shy in unfamiliar places, but he didn’t bother you and your friends tonight.
“So… how is the search for Bi Han?”
“Not great. Every time I get close, I suddenly lose him.”
“It’s alright Kuai I’m sure we’ll find him again someday.”
Kuai just nodded, sitting next to Harumi while you and Tomas sat across from them. Hanzo was with Raiden and Kung Lao somewhere in the restaurant playing around.
“Speaking of which… how is he going to take it that… you know all four of us are in charge?”
Harumi was right. Now that Bi Han was gone, that left Kuai in charge and Tomas second behind him. Bi Han wasn’t considered Grandmaster anymore, that title now going to Kuai instead.
“We’ll be right here to protect you both. He’s never going to lay a finger on either of you.”
“You both are Ladies to the two Masters of the Shirai Ryu. It’d be a death sentence if anyone would put a hand on either of you.”
“Plus it’s our duties as not only your husbands, but as leaders to protect you both from harm.”
Oh yeah did I forget to mention you’re married? Well I guess you know now. But yes, you’ve been married to Tomas for about half of the time Kuai has been married to Harumi.
“But what if he comes back and tries to kill you two? What are we going to do then?”
Tomas grabbed your hand, holding it tight as it laid resting on the table, Kuai holding Harumi close as well. You stared into Tomas’ grey-blue eyes, those same eyes you’ve come to love staring into whenever you wanted, getting lost in them as you felt his presence next to you.
“I swore to you Y/n that I would love you and protect you, no matter the cost. I made an oath on that day you said yes to being my wife that I would never let anyone hurt you. I’m never going to let my brother hurt you, not ever.”
His grip was tight, his thumb running over the small silver ring you wore. You could see his, almost invisible on his hand with how much grey he wore, but you knew your husband’s ring was there, never coming off as long as he lived.
“Miss Y/n! I have something for you!” Hanzo said cheerfully as he slowly walked up the stairs to the four of you
Raiden and Kung Lao walked behind him, supporting what looked like a massive cake in Hanzo’s hands as he slowly made his way to the table. With the help of both older men, Hanzo slowly put it on the table and pushed it towards you and Tomas.
“Happy Anniversary Y/n and Tomas!”
You both smiled at the little boy, Raiden and Kung Lao ruffling his hair as Kuai and Harumi giggled between themselves. You looked to Tomas, seeing him smile and a twinkle in his eye that wasn’t there before.
“I’ve never seen you smile like that before Tommy.”
His face changed quickly, his cheeks red and the tips of his ears dark red as well.
“Y/n don’t call me that in front of my brother!”
And you couldn’t help but laugh as Hanzo, Raiden, and Kung Lao sat to down celebrate a very special evening for you and your husband, almost forgetting with all the chaos from Bi Han leaving months ago.
“I love you Tomas.”
“And I love you Y/n.” He answered giving you a quick kiss
A/N: ohhhhhh my gawdddd anyways I hope you enjoyed! I forgot to say this and I just remembered now but if there’s ever a oneshot or request that you think needs a part 2 or continuation, then I’ll do it considering how much I have to keep cutting to fit in these posts. Hope you like it!

Excerpts from Calamity Approaches:
"Adversaries..." Harumi mused, her fingers brushing over the neatly packed snacks as if sensing the weight of such a responsibility on young shoulders. "It must be quite the burden, being the Chosen One."
"Perhaps," Kuai Liang agreed, watching as Harumi added the finishing touch—a small pack of herbal tea. "But something tells me he carries it well. Now, let's hope our week with the Chosen One is as smoothly packed as our luggage."
"Smoothly packed with a side of adventure, perhaps," Harumi replied with a wink, as they finished their preparations for the journey ahead. "But just between us, I'm secretly hoping to witness some of that kitten-like focus you mentioned."
Kuai Liang laughed, a deep genuine sound that filled the room. "Something tells me you won't be disappointed."
Harumi's nimble fingers then folded a silken robe with practised ease, tucking it into the open suitcase that lay on the tatami mat floor. Beside her, Kuai Liang was faring less gracefully, his broad hands fumbling with a pair of socks that somehow defied every attempt at neatness.

Ever since I found out what happened to Hanzo, I've been really upset, not just as a Subscorp fan, but also as a huge Hanzo fan.
When I saw Smoke's ending, I was very disappointed. In fact, Kuai Liang's ending made me sad too. First of all, I would like to ask NRS why Kuai married Harumi if, since her introduction into the story, she has always been Hanzo's wife. If the intention was to give Kuai a love interest, wouldn't it be better to create an entirely new character or let him have a relationship with a playable character?
If they specifically chose Harumi because she is part of the Shirai Ryu, wouldn't it be better to put Hanzo in her place? After all, he was the grandmaster of Shirai Ryu in the previous timeline.
I don't understand why they assigned this role to Harumi, when it could easily be given to Hanzo, who has been a playable character in the franchise since launch. I also didn't understand why Harumi married Kuai Liang. Harumi was Hanzo's wife, this was literally his only role in the story, she was part of Hanzo's construction as a character.
I can't like the fact that they excluded Hanzo from the creation of Shirai Ryu, as the clan revolved exclusively around him.
It may seem silly, but to me Hanzo was disrespected in every way possible. He is one of the 7 original characters and received an animated film dedicated to him. You might think "but all that attention wasn't necessarily given to Hanzo, that attention was given to Scorpion". Yes, I understand your point, but that Scorpion is intrinsically Hanzo. The development of Scorpion stemmed from Hanzo's story about losing his family and clan. In Mortal Kombat X, he stops being a wraith and returns to being completely Hanzo Hasashi. In Mortal Kombat X comics, he restores his clan (and unfortunately sees his clan massacred again). In Mortal Kombat 11, he has an excellent redemption arc as he fights alongside the good guys and tells his past self to give up undisciplined revenge.
So, I ask: why give everything that made Hanzo Hanzo to another character?
I have no problem with Kuai Liang being Scorpion. He can have Hanzo's gameplay, weapon and powers, that's okay. But why erase Hanzo from his clan creation and not allow him to have Harumi and Satoshi?
For example, Mileena was finally able to have a family, now she is loved by her sister. But why can't Hanzo have everything he wanted most (Harumi as his wife and Satoshi/Jubei as his son)?
This seems unfair to me. They gave Kuai Liang characteristics of another character. I know that in the new era, the characters have new origins, but they simply gave everything Hanzo had to Kuai Liang. They could create a really new origin for Scorpion Kuai Liang, but they simply discarded elements of Scorpion Hanzo's lore and gave it to him.
Hanzo became a homeless teenager, probably an orphan, he probably continues to suffer, when he could be happy next to Harumi and their son, commanding the Shirai Ryu side by side.
As someone who has been following Mortal Kombat for years and dreams of seeing Hanzo finally happy, it hurt my heart to realize that having what he always wanted is impossible even in Liu Kang's timeline.
If they don't want to change too many things, they can just say that Hanzo and Harumi are a couple and are friends of Kuai Liang's family. Hanzo and Harumi welcome Kuai and Tomas to Japan and help found Shirai Ryu. The boy that Smoke finds on Harumi's property could be Takeda, who was born from an affair between Kenshi and Suchin, just like in Mortal Kombat X comics.
I understand that a new era shows new perspectives and is different from the previous era, but what happened to Hanzo was disrespectful, it was a disregard for the character.
Kitana is still daughter of Sindel & Jerrod, Kuai Liang & Bi-han remain brothers, Tomas grew up with them like in the previous timeline, Mileena is still dating Tanya, Suchin is still Kenshi's love interest (he mentions her in intro dialogues)... So why can't Hanzo marry Harumi and be Satoshi's father? Why they hate him so much?
I'm indifferent to Hanzo and Harumi as a couple (there's not much to think about them, Harumi is an NPC and all her appearances before MK1 were just flashbacks or mentions). The point is that Hanzo suffered for eons over the death of his lover and his son, he would do anything to get them back, this has been demonstrated so many times. I just want him to have the life he always wanted.
And honestly, was it really necessary to give Kuai Liang a completely sudden love interest? He spent 30 years single, why is this out of the blue?
I'm very frustrated with all of this. Hanzo was reduced to an insignificant role in the story (even though he assumed the mantle of the most famous character in the franchise for 30 years), the writers decided to shove Kuai Liang into a random and unnecessary romance, we will probably never have Subscorp again (yes, I know we have a lot of content from them, there have been three decades of many interactions and moments between Kuai and Hanzo, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to having more of them in the new era).
Please do not take this as a criticism of Kuai. I think he was also a victim in all of this. They didn't need to discard elements from Hanzo's old lore and give it to him, Kuai is already a well-written enough character, I even think that his part in MKX comics, where he destroys the cyber initiative and takes leadership of his clan, is the most amazing thing I've ever seen, his transition from a boy who lost his brother to a Grand Master is sensational. He didn't need it. Each character has their individuality, no matter what mantle they take on. For example, when Kuai became Sub-zero after Bi-han's death, he had his own story. Bi-han, now Sub-zero again, appears to have his own story as well, quite different from Kuai Liang's and quite different from his own in Mortal Kombat (1992), Mortal Kombat II and Sub-zero Mythologies.
Anyway, that was just a rant. I have a lot of attachment to Hanzo as a character, so seeing what happened to him is something that really frustrates me.

What's This?
A/N: Given that it's the season, I decided to do this year's holiday special with my recent reader insert, Quan-chi's daughter. You'll know who I'm talking about if you've been following me for a while or want to read reader inserts with Pre-MK1 Scorpion, or just checking out my masterlist. For those just tuning in, all you gotta know is that Y/N here has never experienced many everyday things, including snow. They're Scorpion's close friend at this time and constantly sneak out to spend time with him. Also, this takes place in Japan, and I don't know how Japan celebrates Christmas or similar holidays completely, besides glimpses in anime, so Imma just wing it here. I DO know that it's treated as a second Valentine's Day over there.
When you first step foot out of The Netherrealm for one of your nightly visits with Hanzo, you are initially met with the landscape covered in a pristine white powdery substance. You first thought that a volcano went off in the area until the cold finally hit you. Curious, you scooped some of the white powder into your hands, feeling the chill of the substance. You take some in your other hand to pinch it, and it instantly melts into water, unlike the water from the rain here. You took a small bite from the pristine power in your hand to confirm your suspicion.
'It's just water like the rains in Earthrealm!"
You concluded before taking another bite of the snow, which you found to be refreshing on your tongue. But you then dropped it when you then took another look around the landscape to find, in the distance, the Shirai Ryu's compound covered in the white stuff and in a familiar glittering substance that shone like jewels. No, not jewels.... ice! It then hit you where you've seen this white powder and ice.
Wasting no time, you opened a portal directly outside Grandmaster Hasashi's living quarters, not bothering entering through the front like usual. You inadvertently ended up scaring some nearby Shirai Ryu with your sudden appearance, but you paid them no heed, praying to the Elder Gods that you're not too late. You practically broke down the door as you called Hanzo's name, horns out, hellfire blazing from your eyes and head. The man in question was in the middle of trimming a small potted tree, and automatically sprang into action, drawing his katana and demanding to know the danger. Hanzo is caught off guard when you interrupt him mid-sentence to barrel into the Grandmaster, wrapping your arms tightly around him.
Your hellfire disappears in relief that Hanzo is uninjured, the latter then asking why you thought he would be injured. You then remembered yourself and backed away from Hanzo, sheepishly apologizing for being overzealous as you thought Sub-Zero or the Lin Kuei were attacking the Shirai Ryu again. Hanzo went quiet at that, glancing at the snow and ice outside his living quarter before turning away. Seeing your words upset your friend, you swiftly try to explain yourself, stating you've never seen ice or the white stuff in the air besides when Bi-Han or Kuai Liang used it in combat. From what Hanzo told you about Lin Kuei attacking the Shirai Ryu, you thought the worst had happened when you saw those cold things everywhere.
"Snow."
Hanzo interrupted you before elaborating that the "white powder" you refer to is snow. He then turned to look outside, past his torn-off door to his for-now small clan, who gathered around, armed, at the commotion you caused. With a hand raised up and a few words from their Grandmaster, the crowd mostly dissipates as they return to their tasks, including hanging boughs of greenery and tying red ribbons on pillars. You could see Hanzo giving a barely-there smile as the festivities taking place.
"You're right to be concerned about the Lin Kuei attacking the Shirai Ryu again... But rest assured that, in this instance, they're not the reason for this weather."
You allow yourself to relax your muscles, apologizing for not entering through the front gates as agreed upon and the torn-off door. Hanzo just waves away your apology, allowing you to let your intrusion slide, just this once, since you were legitimately concerned about an attack and didn't know any better. But without the fear of an attack to occupy your mind and taking a moment to notice the more than usual colorfully decorated Shirai Ryu compound, new questions bubbled to the surface.
"What's this?"
You swept an arm, referring to the colorful lanterns, the ribbons, boughs of holly, and singing in the air. Hanzo explains that the clan is preparing for Christmas, which you didn't know either, which doesn't surprise the clan's Grandmaster. So, the leader of the Shirai Ryu decided to take it upon himself to walk around the compound to show you what he's talking about, with the added bonus of him being able to check on the clan's progress for the day. Hanzo does his best to describe the winter holiday as he did when explaining rain. Apparently, the old Shirai Ryu had their own festivities around the holidays, but it wasn't as extravagant as Christmas; the rebuilt clan brought in Christmas and its decorations. The clan's Grandmaster allowed this, seeing it as a way for the new clan to celebrate their new bonds as a clan and strengthen said bonds.
You couldn't believe your eyes as you took in the various decorations, seeing the paper snowflakes and the glowing lanterns painted with images of more things you've never seen before. It was all new and odd to you, and also so much fun! The clan members you ran into were happy to explain their winter traditions and what they mean to them, including your follow-up questions.
"Your baubles already shine like gems; why do you need little lights to make it sparkle more?"
But your favorite aspect of this "Christmas" was the music, specifically the songs. You've never heard songs that were so... happy and did not describe cruel massacres and brutal victories over enemies. You had never heard such songs. Hanzo raises an inquisitive brow when you randomly summoned your shamisen. He watched as you tuned your instrument and experimentally plucked its strings. Still, eventually, you were able to figure out how to play the same tunes the other clan members were singing amongst themselves. The Shirai Ryu that were singing stopped when you started playing but began singing again after they recognized your tune.
Hearing the caroling restart, you sped up your playing, and the carolers followed suit. In fact, you got so caught up in your playing and the joy welling up inside you that you didn't notice how your magic halted the snowflakes falling around you or you levitating a few inches off the ground or the gathering crowd around you. Nor did you notice the knot between Hanzo's brows lessening as he looked at your magic display. However, when you notice the snowflakes frozen in midair, you gather some around you, making them spin above you and the other singing clan members, who stopped singing to watch your performance. You then bunched the snowflakes together, but unfortunately, that only made a bowling-sized snowball, which was too heavy for the little magic you were doing, causing gravity to take over and for it to fall on your head.
Given that your clothing was made for the Netherrealm and not for winter, you shivered at the sudden temperature change and the water soaking into your clothes. Hanzo immediately notices this and heats himself up, not fully lighting himself ablaze but just enough to warm you up. You thank him for it, and you are grateful for the warmth. Despite being fully capable of warming yourself back up with a little hellfire, you opt to take up Hanzo’s offer to head back to his home to dry off as an excuse to stay as close as possible to the Grandmaster.
On the way back, you passed by homes smelling of cakes and pies, freshly baked. Something else you never heard of, much less tried. Upon your insistence, you approach one of the clan members to ask to try one of their winter treats. Specifically asking someone roasting chestnuts on an open fire, as you told Hanzo that you wanted to try something so fresh; who figured you could use something warm to eat as well.
To the former wraith’s surprise, rather than try the chestnuts offered, you picked out one of the coals USED to roast the chestnuts and swallow them whole while it was still hot! Rather than scream in pain, you let out a pleased hum as steam started to rise off your person. You remarked that you never had the treat freshly heated before while licking the remains off your fingers. The ninja offering you chestnuts could only stare bewildered while Hanzo raised a brow.
After eating a few more coals, you and Hanzo arrived at his home, where the latter started a fire to help dry off your clothes. You sat near a window that looked out to the rest of the compound while wrapped in a blanket that smelled like your dear friend, which you made yourself comfortable in. While you waited in silence with Hanzo, you allowed yourself to bask in the moment, enjoying the absence of monsters and nightmares; instead, there were good feelings all around you.
'It's like a wonderful dream, one I don't ever wish to wake from.'
You think to yourself with a smile. You're pulled out of your thoughts when you spot two of Hanzo's clan members kissing under a plant hanging above them. Your friend had to first explain what a kiss is and that it's a show of affection between two romantic partners. Apparently, it's an Earthrealm tradition to kiss under this mistletoe plant. You thought such a concept was unique, but you couldn't help but notice Hanzo's melancholic face as he watched the young couple beside you. That's when you remember that your friend had a wife, a wife he most likely kissed like the couple in front of you. Hanzo could never kiss Harumi again. You didn't know what to say to Hanzo then, so you stood beside him until your clothes finally dried. Before you left for the Netherrealm, you sincerely thanked Hanzo for showing you everything today, as it was all so wonderful. Your friend's usually stern expression softened at your once-rare joy as he offered to show you some of his family's winter traditions next time you visit.
When you returned to the Netherrealm, the Revenants and the rest of Quan-chi's servants noticed something different with you, although they couldn't quite put their finger on it. Quan-chi, having raised you since you were a newborn, quickly spotted it. During your usual healing session, in which you would power your father with your music to maintain his health, you started off playing your usual song to give some of your energy to your father. However, midway through, your song became more upbeat and, dare Quan-chi say, jovial? With the change in your song, the withered sorcerer felt a rush of raw energy he never sensed from you before that was almost unbearable.
You almost dropped your Shamisen when your father suddenly asked where you learned such a jubilant tune. You're quick to literally change your tune as you quickly make up a half lie that you happened to have overheard it from one of the damned souls, who most likely went mad. You trembled under Quan-chi's scrutinous gaze before he dismissed his inquiry and gestured for you to continue your playing.
Later on, after the session finished, you were allowed to return to your room as you had no immediate duties to fulfill. You tried to get some rest, but sleep would not greet you. You then tried to read one of the books Hanzo gave you, which you kept hidden under a stone tile, but your eyes started to wander as you reminisced the day Hanzo gifted you those books. Your face began to heat up as you remembered his warm, calloused hands briefly making contact with yours. You shook your head before hiding your books again, growing frustrated with yourself. Your eyes then land on your shamisen.
After making sure there was nobody nearby, you cast a bubble of silence around your room before tuning your shamisen and let your hands speak for you. It wasn't exactly what you would usually play, but it wasn't a cheerful tune. No, you played for an audience, including yourself, as you played out your sorrows and woes that would never be heard.
You thought about all the things you wish you could have, that you've been yearning for since you were a little girl, but don't. You wish you could live among the Shirai Ryu, fight alongside them, and celebrate their holidays with them. Yet, even if you could fool yourself for a moment or two, that sense of camaraderie you feel among them doesn't last, not when you have to return to the Netherrealm. You must return to Quan-chi's side and serve alongside him for your Lord Shinnok in his land of fire and screams. Still, you rather live in a realm of life and light...
You shook your mind before any traitorous thoughts could take root, afraid of what your father or God would do to you if you started to think like that. So you turned your wandering mind to your dear friend, Hanzo.
Oh Hanzo, how you wish he noticed how much you mean to him as your dear friend. You wanted to stand beside him under the mistletoe and feel his lips on your lips. Would they be warm? Would they be dry or moist? You don't know HOW to kiss, as you only learned about it today, but maybe Hanzo could show you how to do it properly. Wait, should friends be having these sorts of thoughts about each other?
You don't know if they should, as you never had such thoughts when thinking about Sareena. You don't even know the name of the feelings inside you when you think about Hanzo or when you're near him, but you do know they're in your heart. You do know that you may never be with Hanzo, as he belongs in Earthrealm with his clan, and you within the Netherrealm. It's just not meant to be. You're not Shirai Ryu. You're not Harumi. You can never be.

Godmother of Diversity himself! Solving homophobia one murder at time! <3
Lisa: I have something to confess... I like women!
Bi-Han, young, unexperienced, panicked and devoid of braincells: Me... too.
Some rando: *Is transphobic towards Cyrax*
Bi-Han, manifesting out of thin air: So this is Cyrax, she identifies as a woman! And I'm Bi-Han, I identify as your murderer :)
Kuai: So... I'm into boys...
Bi-Han: *Nearly has a heart attack with the mere possibility that he might’ve figured that out by developing a crush on one of their toxic ass clansmen*
Bi-Han, physically in pain: I... s-support... you...
(Any) Bi-Han: Ugh! I hate my in-laws!
Some rando: *is biphobic towards Harumi or Hanzo*
Bi-Han: You're gonna talk shit about my in-laws?? SQUARE THE HELL UP, BITCHBOY!
Full set cause Tumblr keeps ruining my animations! 😤
Anyways, Straight ally Bi-Han is the best Bi-Han!😌💅🏾
Bonus: a headcanon to ponder...
Bi-Han: *Thinks he's only an ally cause he's dating a (demon) woman*
Asexuality: Bitch, you thought!

Baby Satoshi: B-Bi... BITCH :D
Bi-Han:
Hanzo: *Laughs hysterically*
Bi-Han: Don't tell Harumi (she'll know he learned that one from me)
Hanzo: you cannot expect me to keep this to myself!
Bi-Han:
Bi-Han: How much for you silence?
Hanzo: Admit I beat you in the Summer Games last year.
Bi-Han: Bitch, you know I was in disadvantage--
Satoshi: BITCH!
Bi-Han:
Hanzo:
Hanzo: So?
Bi-Han: Okaaaaaaaay, I admit! How please, help me make him stop before Harumi finds out!
Hanzo, chucking: okay
Satoshi: BITCH!
Hanzo and Bi-Han: NO!
