@rasta-bot im sorry i messed up the ask and have to post my answer using a screenshot!!

"I want you..." pining prompts

The night was still, the only sounds for miles being the soft rattle of trees in the wind and the quiet jingle of chimes from the Wu Shi courtyard. Ashrah laid in her mat, her eyes shut but sleep evading her.

Syzoth had gone back to Outworld earlier that day. Ashrah found that there was a small emptiness in her chest that coincided with his absence. Her mind often wandered to him in her moments alone.

What is he doing presently?

Did he enjoy his stay in Earthrealm this time?

Am I on his mind as often as he is on mine?

Ashrah had many things to keep her preoccupied. She was fighting for her absolution. She was a student, both of the way of the Shaolin and the way of Earthrealm. She was surprised, then, to realize that Syzoth occupied many of the gaps between those things. Her heart hammered in her chest whenever he was near. When their eyes met she was filled with dizzying exhileration.

It was earlier that day when he sat close by to watch her train, then volunteered to train with her. Their movements complimented one another. Having his full attention only invigorated her more during their spar. To her embarassment, her gracedul sequence was cut short when she stumbled forward. Syzoth was quick to catch her. His touch sent electricity throughout her body and her face warmed as he stared down at her, his eyes soft with concern. The moment had replayed itself in her mind all day.

Ashrash shifted off her back and onto her side, her arm draped over her waist. When she closed her eyes, she imagined the feeling of Syzoth's caress as he laid behind her, their bodies fitting together as though they were created for each other. His arm would hold her waist and he would bury his face in her hair as they slept, the only sound to interrupt the silence being his soft, sleepy sighs.

She readjusted her pillow, orienting it down the long way so that she could hug it while resting her head. She imagined laying beside Syzoth, his arm drawing her close as she laid her head on his chest. He would place kisses to her forehead and to the top of her head as she hugged his middle.

Ashrah sighed and adjusted her pillow once more, then shifted to lay on her stomach. She imagined laying on top of him, one of his arms securely holding her in place as their legs tangled under the covers. His fingers would comb through her hair. The sound of his heartbeat would be her lullaby.

With a heavy heart, Ashrah sat up. If she wasn't able to sleep now, she figured she might as well go outside and meditate.

To any one who new to my blog and to anyone I’ve Spam liked

Hey I just want to put this post to let anybody who finds me on this site that while this blog has been around for a good long while, I am very new to actually interacting on the site and on my blog so if I do something on the app that seems strange it me trying to get used to it. I’m still very new to multiple customs and manners on this site, for example, I’ve only just now know what spam liking is and why it’s harmful( I apologize to many different blogs for spam liking, @rasta-bot, @running-with-the-feels, @suja-janee, @ender-goo, @hiroeghjj, @jaydraw209, @asweetlovesong, @th0r3nda, @miiqmiiq, @marveldivas-incorrectquotes, @xxrainbowvibezxx, @godsofhumanity, @thingsphoenix21, @happyk44, @feathered-mushrooms, @sapphirebluephoenix, @jorongbak, @dalekofchaos, @notherpuppet, @linkneol091, @raggedytiger, @yuramec, @cookiescr, @inc0rrectmyths, @ruberiotsaint, @emositecc, @saturdayschwartz, @laismoura-art and any other blogs I may have disturbed by spam liking. It was never my intention and I simply wanted to express my support as I greatly enjoyed your contents but I understand if all frustrated with me I just simply wanted to explain myself. Do yeah that is a basic explanation for many of my weird activities on the site and any behavior that may came off as disrespectful.

"I am not allowed to desire a different future"

"Your desires are not an issue, it is your methods to achieve them"

Kuai Liang appearing right after he says "desire a different future"

MK1. MK1. MK1. ARE YOU ALLOWING ME TO DREAM???

Is there a chance for redemption here??? Noob can be redeemed????

@rasta-bot @jentasticart I'd love your insights here (if you wish, of course), am I allowed to dream???

@thedragonholder @mikka-minns

Also, did Liu just imply that if Bi-Han had just ASKED for the Lin Kuei's independence, he would've granted it?

My headcanons for EVERY (I think) Mortal Kombat 1 character

— Liu Kang is a big fan of Chinese food, because well, in the previous timelines he was Chinese, so he constantly goes to Madam Bo's restaurant to eat.

— Johnny Cage is a great dramatic actor, but unfortunately, Hollywood studios always cast him as comedic characters or male characters who are himbos, wasting his potential as a dramatic actor.

— Kenshi met Suchin after saving her from being attacked by thugs in Tokyo, and the two's connection was almost instantaneous, with Suchin agreeing to run away with him after Kenshi left the Yakuza.

— Raiden has a huge crush on Kitana, and constantly draws pictures of the two of them kissing (he's a cartoonist btw)

— Kung Lao loves Chinese and South Korean comedy dramas, his favorite South Korean comedy drama is "True Beauty".

— Kuai Liang is extremely protective of Harumi, like, if Harumi gets a scar, he won't rest until the person who did it pays dearly. When he was dating Cyrax, he was also quite protective of her as well (He's not a sexist who thinks women are too defenseless to protect themselves, he just wants to keep Harumi safe because he loves her so much).

— Bi-Han trusts women more than men, thanks to the complicated relationship he had with his father and the loving relationship he had with his mother (thanks to his daddy issues, he doesn't trust masculine nature very much, even though he is also a man).

— Shang Tsung is not a "victim of Liu Kang's intrigues", this guy is a sociopath to the core!

— Tanya is not Mileena's first lover, she had a girlfriend as a teenager, the daughter of an archduke, but was forced to end the relationship because the archduke's daughter had to marry a man, breaking Mileena's heart.

— Kitana is a voracious reader, she loves books, especially about the history of the Earthrealm and Seido, her favorite historical figure of Earthrealm is Queen Mary Stuart, a queen of Scotland, reflecting the thinking of some outworlders who think that she should be empress in place of Mileena, just as some 16th-century English Catholics wanted Mary to be Queen of England in place of her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I.

— I don't usually do SMUT headcanons, but I like to think that Sindel and Jerrod had an active sex life, and she never married any man after Jerrod because she only liked to have sex with him, she herself was impressed that she only had the twins and not like, three more children!

— The souls within Ermac have been in the living forest for so long that over time they have become one big family.

— Quan Chi was a thief when he was young and was sentenced to work in the gold mines as a way of paying for his crimes, which is why he hates Sindel so much.

— Tanya was not given to the Umgadi when she was a child, she was actually stolen from her mother's arms like several other Umgadi (a bit cruel, but I wanted to make it similar to Marvel's black widows).

— Li Mei has always been in love with Sindel, but she never had the courage to express her feelings.

— Takeda is destined to meet and fall in love with Jacqui, even though in this timeline she is not Jax's daughter.

— Sektor is a lesbian and has a fraternal relationship with Bi-Han.

— Cyrax can speak several African languages, including Zulu and Arabic.

— I'm going to join @rasta-bot AU that Nitara is also a lesbian, there's a 19th century irish lesbian book called "Carmilla" that I really like, it's about a sapphic vampire, just like Nitara.

— Reiko was a mommy's boy, just like Bi-Han.

— Shao suffers from narcissistic personality disorder.

— Syzoth and Ashrah's love language is physical caresses, such as kisses on the forehead and cheek.

— Ashrah is pansexual (yes, another wlw woman, it's "Mortal sapphic Kombat" for me) she has always felt lonely, so she would like any romantic companionship, no matter the gender.

— Baraka prays to Delia every day that a cure for Tarkat will be discovered (this is actually canon btw).

— Slavery is (unfortunately) legal in Seido, and Havik was enslaved (also canon), so he is an anarchist.

— Tomas is a polyglot, he can speak Czech, Chinese, English and Japanese.

hate to break it to you, but liu kang and kung lao are actually cousins. i enjoy your art a lot and scrolling through your blog, so seeing you and your friends support liulao makes me concerned. i hope you understand and are mindful about what you ship going forward <:(

I sense some condescension, anon, but since text messaging cannot accurately convey tone, I’ll take this as a genuine warning. Thank you for your concern, but do not worry, I’m old enough to be mindful about my ships and I do my research, since I have no interest in shipping relatives in any media, and it CAN be tricky with the universe as complex and lore heavy as mk.

With that being said, here’s where you are wrong, anon. Liu Kang and Kung Lao are canonically NOT related – at least the versions of them that people ship.

Just a week ago, lovely user rasta-bot covered the “cousins issue”, you can check this post or I’ll just repeat the main idea here. They were only made cousins in the original 1995 movie because this specific universe (and by extension MK Conquests universe since it's a prequel to the movies) has Liu Kang as the Great Kung Lao's descendant as well. However, this is what the mk co-creator and Lore God™ John Tobias said about this change:

In no other game Liu Kang was the descendant of GKL or Lao’s relative. In the original (and prev) timeline he was an orphan, raised by Shaolin monks.

And if you are referring to the 2021 movie, alas, you’d be wrong again. In the movie Liu Kang has no family, he tells Cole about his past, but people love to refer to the scene with a translation error. The mistake was pointed out by several native speakers online, but everyone can easily check it by themselves, even if they are not familiar with the language, just by doing a quick google search. This took me 2 minutes:

1. Turn on the Chinese subtitles.

2. Look at the first results of “師兄 meaning” goggle search.

source: wiktionary.org

source: chinese.yabla.com

source: hinative.com

It is totally fine if you don’t feel like shipping these two, you have all the right - everybody has different preferences. I also don’t like certain ship dynamics even if they are “legal” in any way. 😁 But I never encountered liulao shippers who would endorse inсеst, and it’s sad to see how this confusion nearly becomes a witch hunt, scaring and demotivating artists and writers.

[thedragonholder]

I am going to say it. If you guys want mk lore and aus @rasta-bot, @laismoura-art , @charlotte-family-apologist , @running-with-the-feels are the perfect people to go to from character and hidden mk lore. Even have their own lore about underrated character such as suchin and harumi.

I plan to rewrite the last 8 posts sooner or later, but going forward, I will start posting new food CC finds again. I must admit I'm a bit rusty -- I haven't really played Sims 4 for a while. But I'm wishing that this is the last time @staff, tumblr bot, or someone out there terminated my blog again. Let's hope third time is really the charm 😌🤞

[outlawssweetheart]

@rasta-bot Okay, so, I was answering the ask you sent about Lana and the fam, saved to draft, aaaannd... now it's nowhere to be found. 🙃

Idk when I'll get the mental energy to write all that again (and it was only 2 paragraphs 😩), but you are more than welcome to send it again.

@staff @wip Please fix this. Our inbox posts should not be disappearing when we draft them.

[yasenek-0]

the ask link in my bio finally works!!! I'm so sorry for being so dumb, I didn't see it was linking to my OLD account 😭😭😭😭 thanks again @rasta-bot for pointing it out!!

pls, if you've ever sent me an ask or anything similar to that that hasn't been answered yet, send it again so I can finally respond to it 😭😭

[soulofamy]

For the headcanon ask game: Rain with "family". :))

Send me a word plus 'Headcanon' and I'll give a headcanon based on that word.

omg okay okay so ive been holding onto this one since takeda got dropped

based on this intro here!!

my headcanon is that daegon is amaras son to a different man than whoever rains father was. is he also argus's son? idk and idc tbh. but what i will say is that he is significantly older than rain. he was probably the outworld equivalent of being like 12 years old when rain was born. and it was from a very young that daegon fell in with the wrong crowd.

rain grew up watching his mother get her heart broken over and over again as daegon participated in criminal activity. this is partially what motivated rain to push himself so hard in his studies at the academy. he wanted to give his mom something to be proud of

[2346khith]

Ok, I'm just going to say what everybody else was thinking. More companies should hire actual fans of their properties. It obvious those people are much more passionate about those shows,comics,movies or what nots a lot more than corperate suits who are in charge of overseeing them. Plus I've seen fan projects, fan films, fan fictions and fan comics with better potential than most of the stuff churned out for the sake of money. @laismoura-art, @rasta-bot, @running-with-the-feels, @charlotte-family-apologist , 4thsnake and many others have a much better job at worldbuilding and character development for mortal kombat's mythos than NRS could ever do. Have you ever heard of @thecardnialarts. He the one respondible for creating an oc called hellspinner who is basically the Mayday Parker of 616 who was taken away by mephisto. I haven't seen much of his art but I do know I would've much rather that be the storyline that came after spider man beyond than Zeb Wells run. I seen amazing youtubers like troyoboyo17 and nando v movies who pour their hearts out about their favorite comic book characters and I know they would be perfect at marvel or dc becuase they understand the characters on a fundamental level. So yeah apologize for the rant but not apologizing for the purpose.

Ladies and gentlemen:

The Sisterhood of Shadows! 🎸🎶

I cannot be the only one who thought they would make a sickass band while watching MK Legends: Cage Match!

I hate that they are just jobbers there, but I LOVE their rockstar desings!

🎹 Sareena definitely has my favourite design! Her outfit is so pretty and messy curls fit her so well and they were so much fun to make!

🎸 And y'all know I'm a curly Jataaka believer so I brought the queen's crown back! Her outfit fits the vibes I usually give her so I dig it!

🥁 Kia's hair was pretty fun so I kept it, and her outfit though simple was so stylish, I really like it!

And I know Cage Match set up Sareena to be the the main lead, and that's cool and she was pretty badass, buuuuuuut, I think even Sareena herself will agree Jataaka is the true main lead of this band! 👑

I wanted to try a different style, I hope y'all like it!

Let's be real, the are MK's Hex Girls! 🖤

OCs as Colors

Tagged by @theelderhazelnut as @apepthehero to take this quiz (link in the title) and answer it as one of my OCs. Gonna answer as this OC dedicated blog again.

Burgundy Red (the same Elder Hazelnut's OC Ombra, funnily enough)

You're very passionate, maybe passionate in the way of people, maybe passionate in the way of a goal, of a love, of a desire- it doesn't matter that much. You're strong-minded, self-sufficient, and people admire you, perhaps for different reasons, depending on what parts of yourself are true or not. Are you done running from what you don't like? It's okay, to be afraid. Fear is normal, it's what makes someone human, what makes someone real, but that doesn't mean that you can avoid everything. Someday your grief of your old self will find you in the middle of a summer day and ask you if you've forgiven it yet, and you will have to find an answer.

No pressure tags (again, only if you want 🤗): @cdr2002, @odie1441, @transdrowcavalier, @rasta-bot (Amara, Hydro or whatever unique take of yours count for this one too if you want 😃), @charlotte-family-apologist (your take on Suchin would count again), and anyone else reading if they would have fun!

[thegrimoiresvoice]
