Edenian Supremacism Probably Comes With The Sindel Retcon. They Were Originally Allies Of Earthrealm

Reblog if you don't wanna be a loser anymore.

rb if u just didn't want to be a loser anymore

Unpopular opinion, I guess

As a kid (6-7) I used to believe that Stella was latina and Flora was either light skinned or mix-raised. So when Aisha/Layla came along I thought there were two black girls in the group.

How the Devil Gene in canon still works after Tekken 7

From what most Tekken enjoyers understand is that the Devil gene was retconned. But what if there was a way to watch all endings and past revelations without getting confused? Which brings my presentation. 

How the Devil Gene in canon still works after Tekken 7

To be clear, I haven't refreshed my memory of what went down in the storyline but I remember the basics, so feel free to call out any incorrectness. Most of this is just a ramble and I wanted to show it to anybody who would read it, along with using a bunch of gifs for artistic reasons.

When Kazuya was a small boy his father (Heihachi) threw him off a cliff, in Tekken 7 it is because Kazuya tried to fight him after Heihachi killed Kazumi, his mother. The reason Heihachi killed her is because he found out she came from a family of devil genes (or something). 

I don't think Kazuya was raised to know what the Devil gene was, so when Devil made himself present he naturally made a deal with Kazuya out of instinct of knowing what itself was but not the family history. Kind of like a kitten having the same tendencies as its parents but was taken from the litter and mother it belonged to. I think you guys know what I mean here.

I theorise that the gene itself isn't present until something tragic and emotionally distressing activates it. At least that may be the case for those with it who go untrained not knowing that they have it, I don't know how it must've been for Kazumi. Devil Jin was activated through stress, and whilst Jin was in his teens, while Devil K grew with Kazuya.

Dude's mum just disappeared and the person that's supposed to protect him betrays him with the actual intent to harm. I think Heihachi throwing Kazuya was kind of a disciplinary thing, because Kazuya still grew up with Heihachi, while Jin was left for dead. But Kazuya was 8-10 (poor memory) when he got thrown off, so his emotional/mental tolerance was... lesser. Not to say Jin losing his mum at an older age wasn't just as traumatic, but teenagers and children are different. Jun's presence also must also have something to do with it, as Devil Jin tries to resist her good powers.

Devil Jin must've been waiting to appear for quite some time, in the back of Jin's mind watching everything. What we know of Devil Jin is that he's an absolute menace to society and a typical delinquent teenager. He's very playful in comparison to Devil Kazuya's maturity. He takes his time being a menace, knowing Jin would take control eventually. TTT2's special win poses between Devil K/Kazuya and Devil J make Devil K/Kazuya look a disapproving father. From DJ firing his laser out of control and flying away, with DK either crossing his arms or showing no reaction.

In Tekken 4 the Devil in Kazuya says that he lost a part of himself and wants to take it back. In a way, when you put in the whole genetic thing he's kind of not wrong. Devil K is acknowledging that he has a son but not to the full grasp that he should. We all know how DNA works, reproduction, ect.

Devil K however believes that 'part of himself' should be taken back, not getting that the gene is in Jin's blood. While I do believe Jun was protecting Jin, I don't think that's why his body rejected the gene getting taken away. Now, as seen with Kazuya's TTT2 ending he can absorb the evil off others for his own gain which is what he did to Unknown. Thing is, Unknown is more of a possession rather than an 'in the blood' situation. Sure TTT2 isn't canon, but it has shown 'what if' scenarios. Not only that, but we see Zafrina use Azazel's ball thing for her own use.

So the Devil gene is still a thing, and it started out as just that, a gene. They can take power away from other forms of evil, but not their own family members. That may have been why Kazumi wanted Kazuya killed, because Devil couldn't be taken away from him, and she's no Jun Kazama or Angel so it's not like she could take it away from him. Not to defend her or anything, just saying.

Kenny was my self insert, and I smiled when Mike complimented Kenny after he caught the chicken. Missed opportunity to have Mike be his new mentor figure, especially with the Terry Silver connection.

If they do end up doing a spin off of Cobra Kai somehow, hopefully they do that.

All of our favourite Noobs

I feel like the Sindel retcon has a lot of unfortunate implications. From the hypersexual personality (because evil = sexual) to the idea that because she looked evil she had to be evil to just turning a victim of abuse and colonization into a monster. I get wanting to show flaws in heroes but this wasn't what they did. And I feel like most of the defense of it is just people finding new Sindel hot.

I agree. To be honest, the reason why I always saw her as an evil character even with the context of the mind control is because of her white eyes and overall scary appearance in contrast to Kitana's more (arguably) soft appearance.

I did find it stupid when they retconned their character, but I didn't care much. After watching some ai generated intros where Sindel is good, I gotta say, I like good SIndel. It is bizarre that anyone would find her hot considering that she now canonically does slavery, which just makes my blood boil. They did ruin her character, and even though I wasn't apart of the mk fandom during the 2000s, I miss good Sindel.

Daniel D'Arby is the cooler D'Arby

Just something I wrote in a youtube comment section, thought it was good enough to be a post and here I am.

Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-DpwGvxN1U

I love older D'Arby (Daniel). It's just how unassuming he is, and when we're first introduced to him we can tell that he has an involvement with the plot but we're taken aback by how normal he looks yet he stands out.

The fact that he's a dirty cheater is funny, but it all gets quiet when he takes your soul. YOUR SOUL, that's some demonic type stuff right there. There's also the classic casino look he has going on with him that reminds me of Mr Dice from Cuphead (also a game about your soul being taken by Satan and gambling).

I'm also taken by how much of a gentleman he is, supposedly at least. He has this old fashioned style to him that makes his presence feel more alien and maybe a little eerie whenever we zoom in on his red eyes. Like he's either timeless or from another time.

The fact that he and Terence are related is quite surprising, not just appearance wise, but it has more to do with the vibes they give off. Daniel gives off "trusty stranger you shouldn't trust, but end up falling victim to anyway", while Terence is "little boy wants to play and you can see the red flag". Terence is a wolf that you see coming, but Daniel unnervingly sneaky. Daniel will sort of play mind games on you (by cheating), but Terence is the kind that YOU play tricks ON.

Both D'Arby's have the ability to take souls. With Terence you feel like he's just being an a-hole, you kind of roll your eyes a bit. With Daniel there's this otherness, like "Why do you want my soul?". I get that it has something to do with pride, but what does he need it for? Terence watches them move as dolls with a conscience and they are stuck with him to the point where they develop stockholm syndrome (as seen with one of the dolls), but Daniel just has them stuck as chips and nothing else as if he's collecting rare cards.

There's a story to Daniel that I'm curious about. There's just something about him that makes me wanna separate him from everything and get to the bottom of his character. His face markings, his need for soul taking, and his upbringing. Why are him and Terence so different besides the age gap and growing up in different decades.

Mortal Kombat x Bimbo Reader

Another test run, and these are just bullet points not full blown stories. I've already written another bimbo reader post so I suggest checking that out. Please do requests if this isn't enough.

This one is just Bi Han, Kuai Liang, Hanzo, Shang Tsung and Johnny.

"I need to die looking good."

Bi Han Noob Saibot

He doesn't understand your constant need to dress up and put makeup on, but he won't say anything about it. A lot of women are just like that, so Bi Han just figured it's a female thing. Misogynistic of him, but he doesn't care.

While seeing him training you gladly set up a chair and watched him from afar whilst drinking a cocktail, and you've attached yourself to him ever since. He couldn't take you seriously at first, but he could only admit to himself that your dense personality was a little adorable.

When the blood got too much you would hide your face in his chest, which he didn't mind even though some makeup stains would go on his clothes.

When he returned as Noob Saibot he swore to make you drop dead gorgeous, even if you already were. But you would join him in death as his revenant lover. Quan Chi was sure to give you the best manicures so long as you were loyal to him.

Kuai Liang

As a man that puts Lin Kuei traditions in high regard he could understand your need for the newest fashion and dressing well. He showed you his wardrobe and you decided to copy his style, which he found adorable.

He likes having tea with you, but you're certain he must try a frappe or at least a smoothie.

Kuai isn't one for public affection, Lin Kuei and all, but he lets you climb over him. If he's not disciplining Frost or the other Lin Kuei then he's snogging you in the snow. After you drag him into it at least. He only initiates things first if you guys are alone.

Although you didn't understand a lot of things he could appreciate you being there for him to give comfort on sensitive topics.

Hanzo 'Scorpion' Hasashi

It was like talking to a different Johnny Cage in his opinion. It was a bit jarring to have you flirting with him and not get the slightest hint that he's not interested since revenge was on his mind. It was after he was brought back as Hanzo Hasashi that he appreciated your presence more.

The Shirai Ryu are ninjas, so that meant blending into society when on mission and you had a lot of things to say about clothing choices.

The Shirai Ryu shrine looked better than he remembered, you had given him ideas on the layout and studied a thing or two on Japanese culture to make it legit.

When he caught you teaching the new members cheerleading moves he knew he had to be more welcoming with you, because those were complicated moves. And it showed him you were no stranger to teamwork. Hanzo could see the beauty in that.

Shang Tsung

This villainous man came across you giving Mileena style tips and fixing her hair. He had no clue how you snuck into the private parts of the palace, but he suspected you were partially from the Chaosrealm.

Mileena didn't react well to your absence, and after Kitana's rejection she seemed to have formed an attachment to you so Shang expected you around the palace. Shao Kahn was glad that Mileena had a nice person to look up to, so he was fine with you in the palace.

Shang had you participate in the tournament for a reason, but he underestimated your powers as well as your fighting abilities. Such beauty in combat is rare.

Johnny Cage

Barbie and Ken in the eyes of many Earthrealmers, but you two are the 'it' couple when it comes to vanity, expensive taste, and being drama queens.

He is your husband, your best friend, and your mirror. Your super power was convenience and getting yourself out of serious situations, but how it acted up was at random times. Johnny could relate to that.

In the meantime, you could both bathe in the spotlight, and the cameras. And your friends from home can be jealous and gush about you marrying an actor.

It was a match made in pink and green.

The drama outside of Bella and Edward.

Billy was invited as well. He needs to make sure the doctor won't use his weird vampire charms on Charlie.

Y’all think Charlie Swan ever invited Carlisle Cullen over to watch the Mariners play and since Carlisle (and his family) love baseball soooo much he went all out and came over in a jersey and a platter of buffalo wings and was just so excited to watch the game with someone, and it’s made even better by the fact it’s a human who invited him over, a human who wanted to spend this time with him bc he’s always a little worried that he’s the monster his father always warned him about
