7. Rai hates using the Gills of Hamachi and absolutely will not touch that Shen Gong Wu. He nopes out of just about any underwater exploration.

8. He would have recognized the fake Omi Town as being populated by robots immediately so either that episode didn’t happen or Wuya and Bean came up with some way to get him out of the way of their plan.

Canon events that would go differently in the blind!Rai au:

1. The monks find out about the chameleon bot replacing Kimiko right away because he’s not fooled by its appearance.

2. Le Mime’s powers don’t work on him because he doesn’t visualize what Le Mime is creating. Even if he did, he could feel the wind moving through the manifested objects so it would break the illusion right away.

3. Sneaking up on the Xiaolin temple becomes a lot harder so Jack (probably) builds a tunneling robot much sooner to use until he gets his hands on the Tunnel Armadillo.

4. Raimundo knows Jack’s being sincere when he tries to go Xiaolin for a day, so he’s not as much of a douche to Jack. That’s not the same as being actively nice, however.

5. The chi creature is never invisible to him so he’s able to warn the other monks of the ‘weird animal’ following them and deal with it right away.

6. His elemental abilities develop a lot faster.

On or off anon. My Muse has to answer, at least in some capacity.

What you are or where you came from is not important. It is who you are and the choices you make, that determine who you will become. If you can look inward and be satisfied, the opinions of others should melt away.

"Its so hot, I think Satan is jealous." (xiaolnbrothrs | Dojo)

SUMMER TIME SENTENCE STARTERS

Raimundo snorted.

"Aren't reptiles supposed to like the heat?"

Taking pity on the temple guardian, Raimundo extended the cool breeze swirling around him to cover Dojo as well. When he'd first come to the temple, Raimundo had this idea of China as a cold place. After several years, however, he was accustomed to China's summers and the sweltering heat they brought.

"Dashi really shoulda had his temple built on the beach," Raimundo half-joked.

— 🌊 The monk blinked in confusion. “Are you most certain?” Omi has heard about these flying pigs many times from his friends and Jack Spicer. So of course they must be a thing. He just hasn’t stumbled upon them yet. Maybe they didn’t come from China and from another place. “You and the others mention them, so how could they not?”

Raimundo shook his head, a fond smile tugging at the corners of his lips.

“Dude, I am begging you; get a book on figures of speech. Preferably a modern one.”

Then again, he thought as he called a slight breeze to stir waves in the temple fountain, they’d dealt with weirder stuff. So maybe he could cut Omi some slack, just this once.

“Flying pigs aren’t a thing, so when people talk about ‘em they’re basically saying something’s impossible. Example; Jack Spicer will rule the world when pigs fly.”

Raimundo: [kicks door open, looking panicked]

Kimiko: “What happened?!”

Raimundo: NOBODY DIED

Kimiko: WHAT KIND OF ANSWER IS THAT

[windswept-dragon]

Raimundo: I'm sick of Master Fung treating me like a kid.

Dojo: But you are a kid.

Raimundo: Yeah. A kid who can stop a bus with his bare hands.

[windswept-dragon]

Chase: You must only use your martial arts. Not Shin Gong Wu-

Raimundo: *raises hand* I have a question. Does a loaded shotgun count as Wu?

Chase: Um- I'm going to have to say no and reword my previous statement.

[windswept-dragon]

Rai spends his evenings in the archives studying Xiaolin magic and history, or reading up on Showdown rules and tactics or whatnot, and sometimes gets so caught up in it that he loses track of time. Omi frequently comes to pester him and Rai just kinda gets used to ignoring Omi being annoying and Omi gets used to Rai not getting distracted, so eventually Omi just starts curling up in Rai's lap while he reads or sitting next to him and reading over his shoulder and everything's chill.

Yep, perfect. This is canon. You can’t tell me otherwise.

Master Fung: What scares you the most?

Clay: My granny’s cheek pinches.

Omi: Squirrels.

Kimiko: The unstoppable marching of time that is slowly guiding us all towards an inevitable death.

Raimundo: Kimiko.

[windswept-dragon]

[After a Showdown gone wrong.]

Omi: Kimiko, this is all your fault!

Kimiko: What? I didn't do anything!

Omi: Exactly! You need to start pulling your weight.

[Omi rounds on Raimundo.]

Omi: And that goes for you as well, so-called 'leader!'

[Kimiko and Raimundo stare after Omi as he stomps off.]

Kimiko: Remember when he used to be so nice and sweet?

Raimundo: Nope.

[windswept-dragon]

       We ɢᴏᴛ ᴜᴘ and wiped the dust off.                Our 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦 set us free.

[windswept-dragon]

Raimundo: There are three ways to do things; the right way, the wrong way, and the Omi way.

Kimiko: Isn’t that just the wrong way?

Raimundo: Yeah but it creates a two bad timelines.
