He may be the titan version but that scowl still carries- even his “mini me” carried it

[failyaoi]

repost, wanted to finish the concepts ^_^

[spaghetsquid]

It’s what makes them squeezable, like a lil stress ball

It’s always the tragic brothers

[gamerwoman3d]

Can we let their hair down please 😫

[anyydidi]

Tomáš is taller than both Bi-Han and Kuai Liang.

My reasoning?

Average czech man: 180 cm (5’11) | Average chinese man: 167 cm (5’6)

I’m not saying they are all necessarily these exact heights but czech people are generally taller than chinese people + plus it’d be super funny if the adopted youngest brother outgrew them both.

Kids being kids

[ghostbiter]

WHOA!! I’m so normal guys I promise

Anyway!! Lin kuei brothers kitties for you all… look at them

Individuals :3

Bi-Han!

He’s Frigidgaze/star in my silly warrior kitty au that I spin in my head. He became leader at the unusual death of his father, the leader at the time. He’s very cold, and calculative.

He Is inspired by the phantom of the opera kitty, that was going around on tiktok! :)

Kuai Liang!

He’s Feverishsting in my silly au! He’s his brother’s deputy, and a fiercely loyal feline. Although he is no saint, he holds a deep sense of family. He tries to guide his brother in following their own ideals, but he’s still as loyal as a dog.

He is a cryptic ticked tortoishell! With a pelt resembling a golden tiger! :))

Tomas!!!

He’s Smokehaze in this au! He’s loyal just like his brother, although he’s not afraid to bend the rules, nor is he afraid to voice his distaste or objections to his brother’s decree. He’s still a loyal warrior, one of the best paws they have.

He’s a strange pelt marking! A “blue” color point!

Anyway :) they are very silly to me

[rabbitlost]

Make it poly, problem solved.

No idea what the fuck is happening in this game and I am scared

It's only a handful of months away before the plagiarism algorithms will catch AI garbage (if they can't already) and then there'll be ammo for kicking cheaters out. Until then, this is the right response if you can't give out failing grades for some reason. AI bros absolutely deserve it. See where their fanatical love of theft and scamming gets them.

These students should be failed at the first violation. To the people in the notes who think it's ableist: it's not ableist to expect you to do your own work. And the algorithms you're so afraid of don't call out original work. If you ever spent time looking at what they flag in your uploaded documents, you'd know. They flag quotes and sometimes generic paraphrasing, but you recognize it and ignore it because that's trivial. Once I finish my own proofreading, I already know that nothing the algorithm tells me will motivate me to change anything because ... it's my own work.

There are people who actually WANT to be in these classes and attend school, and people who didn't get in because it was too competitive. Dropping cheaters at square one is exactly the right choice. They need to go so someone who cares about making the effort can take their place.

If you're so afraid that your work is so bad that it will be mistaken for AI, then literally go get help. You are in a class. You are there to learn. Your professors are there to help. The worst that will happen is that you will learn and improve. Shocker, I know!!!! That attending a class might result in actual learning, like it's supposed to!!! I guarantee an honest effort will be rewarded. Cheating will not.

"The biggest issue is students using it, me spotting it and having no recourse whatsoever to do anything about it." can you elaborate a bit further

Hello !

So to explain a bit more: we [aka your lecturers, teachers, teaching assistants, etc...] know that some students will use ChatGPT.

And there is a discussion to be had about how to work with this, how to design assessment which allow students to leverage something which may simply become a fixture of writing in a workplace environment, but that is not the discussion we are having here. Because that is not what we are worried about.

The defensible, problematic situation is: a student straight up entering the essay prompt on ChatGPT, and using the grand skills of Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V, submits it as their own paper.

And our main worry, I think, was for a long time that we would not be able to catch it. That students would, actually, be able to fool us and that we would actually think this was a student who understood the course, who put in the work, and who deserve to be rewarded for their grade. That was the main fear.

But here is the thing.

And listen up, students :

Essays written by ChatGPT :

Suck

Are spotted from a mile away from the person reading it

For real. They suck.

I cannot stress enough how easy they are to spot. You are NOT fooling anyone. I do not need the platform's AI-detecting tool to know when an essay was written by Chat GPT. It is so, very painfully obvious when that's the case.

But the problem then becomes : ok, I have spotted a student who cheated.

What am I even supposed to do with it.

It is one thing to KNOW that an essay was AI-generated, it is another to defend it to a plagiarism committee. First of all, does it actually count as plagiarism ? Second, how do prove, with certainty, that the student did not write it ? How to I convince the plagiarism committee that this is worth looking into ? I am in the role of a police officer, who needs to convince the DA that this is a winnable case, that prosecuting will not be a waste of their time. But I don't have a Similarity Percentage to rely on. I don't have an original source to say "look, this is the exact same wording!" like in a classic plagiarism case.

Best case scenario, I can make my case for thee student to actually be called to the plagiarism committee, where we probe into how, exactly, they wrote their essay, until they fold. Unlikely, morally questionable, and in all likelihood, ineffective on students already so confident in their bullshit that they have the audacity to submit a fully AI-generated work for their finals.

Now, students, gather up, especially if you have considered using Chat GPT this way. Because right now, you might think it means you can get away with it.

But let me tell you something. First, that essay is getting the shittiest grade we can give you. Because you know what is more difficult than a lecturer proving that a student used AI to generate their essay ? A student proving that they deserve a better grade. Once we give you a grade, burden of evidence is on you to prove that you have not been graded properly. And we can come up with 15 reasons why an essay is a shit essay. We put on kids' gloves, when we lecture and give feedback. We give the simplified version of most theories, we give the basics of how to structure an essay, the bar we set is spectacularly low, because students come in good faith, they are learning, they will not be held at the same standard as academics. But if you try to argue that you need a higher grade, when you had the audacity to not write a single word of your work, the kids gloves are going to come off real quick, and your lecturer will be able to very convincingly explain why, actually, giving you a passing grade was a mercy in the first place.

Second. Academics, especially angry academics, are a gossip machine.

You may get a passing grade, and there may be no official note of it in your file whatsoever. But I can guarantee you that your lecturer will chat with their colleagues. That every single one of your essay that year, and the years to come, will be looked at with so much scrutiny I hope your referencing for every single work reaches perfection. Every single paragraph will be looked at with the knowledge that you are likely to have had it AI-generated. Lecturers will tell their TA to look at for That One Student when they grade you .You will not be getting any flexibility from us, no extension without full documentation to support it, no letter of recommendation from any member of the faculty, no word in your favor if you are bordering a grade bracket. If we are feeling especially petty, we might even forget to answer your emails or answer any question you have with such warmth and kindness you really still never feel like asking a question again in our class. And I know that, because that's already happening. I have the name of three undergrads that we know, for a fact, did not write their own essay. Two are not even in my modules at all.

Now. That's pretty mean. But if you have the absolute audacity and lack of ethics required to submit an essay for which you have not written a single word, and thought it would actually work, when your lecturer spent probably more that 80 hours working in this module this term, gave you the opportunity to meet for office hours, to ask any question in person or in email, to have extensions, accommodations, additional time ? When you decided that putting exactly zero second of your time, considered that you were above that - and above other students- and yet we were not able to officially sanction you for it, we had to give you a passing grade, the same passing grade as students who actually made an effort?

Yeah, sorry, you are not getting any sympathy from your lecturers anymore.

I'm 10000% certain that this is the look their mother gave them when they hadn't listened to clear instructions like "Don't get [x] dirty. It's your turn to do [chore.] Leave your brother alone." and she was on her next to last straw.

[gophergal]

For the expression thing, how about B1 Bi-han and B2 Kaui Liang. Please and thank you

First time I've ever tried to draw Bi-han (not sure if I'm satisfied with how he looks tbh)

Him

Kuai liang subzero appreciation post

Aka imho the truest subzero.

💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙

I wanna make a bi-han subzero post but sadly the only ones we get aren't very good. I'll have to make my own sadly.

❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄💙❄

To me kuai liang is subzero. He is the truest keeper of the moniker. Imho although bi-han was subzero before him,and has carried that moniker even until death and beyond. To me bi-han even if he ever returns properly (aka becomes mortal and gets rid of the noob saibot demon. And don't get turned into a mockery of himself -_- ) he'd retire,even if he uses it from time to time he prefers now to be simply called bi-han. And to me i feel he would feel kuai liang has earned the title of grandmaster and he would want kuai liang his lil bro to be happy and rightfully so as any big bro would. To me,the subzero brothers are true brothers both in blood and comrades. To me i feel kuai is subzero. A master cryomancer. And y'all should put some respect on that mans name.

Same with bi-han. Bi-han has earned retirement. Peace. And a life free of kombat. If I'm not mistaken,that was his original arcade ending. Bi-hans.

Plz for the love of elder gods,give that man a break!!!

And bi-han being proud of kuai achieving beyond any other lin kuei,becoming grandmaster,restoring the lin kuei to it's truest self,and became the warrior bi-han knew he could be. His big bro is proud of the man,the warrior,kuai has become.

🥺💖

And all honestly i feel that how they should end their arch.

Bi-han making amends with hanzo. Bi-han retired. Kuai being the new leader. And hanzo restoring his clan. Having his peace too. Like god damn let the ninjas be happy and retire. The best that we could have in this damn game. Sure they can still fight but damn. Let them be happy. Fuck!...

Anyways. Kuai. I love you,you sparkle snow baby.

💙❄💋💖

[running-with-the-feels]

I have been hyperfixatint on zombies movies and the mk subzero bros and I bring a new Au, A zombie apocalypse Au, which more or less comes from a virus that originated from the Netherrealm because I want the meshing with literal hellscape to have more consequences. So the Netherrealm virus, idk what to call it, but essentially, turns people into demons, tjr transformation happens fast, how it changes the person depends on environmental factors and the nature of the person.

Bi-Han and Kuai Liang are super young and still living with their family went it begins to spread wildly throughout Earthrelam. Their sister got it when their were trying to escape from a horde of demons, and ended up harming Kuai Liang, leading him to become infected too, but as he was really young, Bi-Han was able to wrestle him enough to get a gag on him to keep him from biting. And it was almost like……Kuai Liang depsite not having any memory or cognitive ability as a human he could still regonize Bi-Han as an important person to him.

So now a young preteen Bi-Han is trying to survive with a feral demon young Kuai Liang who barely is aware of his own identity due to the virus.

The Lin Kuei end up taking them still but it’s further down the line, and they more or less still turn Bi-Han into an assassin. While promising him they will ‘help’ Kuai Liang and try to find a cure, while just using Kuai for experiments and as a free attack dog

Yes, yes, this!!! More of this!!!

No but seriously, that adds so much angst to Bi-Han's character bc he's trying so hard to save his brother and he knows he's being manipulated but he can't give up hope

I'd imagine that Kuai Liang gets "Sent" (ie let loose) on a mission and crosses paths with Hanzo, who along with the Shirai Ryu is working to find survivors and rebuild, and Hanzo sees that he's been infected a long time, but still maintains some level of awareness

Like, most demons just kill everything in sight, but Kuai Liang let the child Hanzo was trying to rescue walk right past him without even growling, and later Hanzo sees him petting a cat

So he's obviously still in there, still a person, and Hanzo knows that this can't be ignored

Imagining that Harumi is still alive, she's probably trying to find a cure, so when Hanzo radios in to tell her what he found, she tells him to bring Kuai Liang in, as they can try and see what has allowed him to fight the virus for so long.

Cue Bi-Han being pissed off and terrified bc his brother has been kidnapped and is about to be experimented on, so he goes rogue to try and find him

Meanwhile Kuai Liang is being treated gently and kindly by Hanzo and Harumi as they try to cure him, the both of them visiting every day and giving him little reminders of human life (toys, candy, blankets, paintings, etc) to see how he reacts

They do eventually find a cure and the job then becomes helping Kuai Liang adjust to being a person again (sans demonic bloodlust) and that's when he and Bi-Han reunite.

Obvs there would be eventual subscorprumi
