Played a bit of monster hunter, one of my favorite games, so naturally I decided to draw this afterwards

FAT FUCK DETECTED

Not Every DC Animated Show is Part of the DCAU

"DCAU" is not a catchall term for any animated media featuring DC characters. It refers to a specific set of shows and their connected movies & comics. That set is as follows:

Batman: The Animated Series (Including The New Batman Adventures)

Superman: The Animated Series

Batman Beyond

Static Shock

The Zeta Project

Justice League

Justice League Unlimited

It does NOT include Teen Titans, Teen Titans GO!, The Batman, The Harley Quinn Show, or any of the films in the DCAMU.

Please stop clogging up the DCAU tag with posts about non-DCAU animated media.

Okay, so, I had to reread some of the mkx blood ties comics as research for a fic and:

Kuai Liang had just woken up, when Raiden sent him after the Kamidogu.

Like, it's never outright stated, but the implication is that Kuai Liang has literally just been resurrected. He's waking up after being a revenant for the first time since having his humanity restored.

And he's awake for all of 2 seconds before Raiden sends him on that sidequest.

Which, I mean, I hadn't forgotten that (for all that I choose to ignore it for the sake of Plot) but it still slaps me in the face every time.

Because that's pretty fucked up, right?

Kuai Liang's literal entire family is dead, he has nothing and no one left, has Just woken up free to think his own thoughts for the first time in actual years, has woken up From A Nightmare about being controlled by Quan Chi

And Raiden sends him after the Kamidogu while he's still trying to catch his breath

This is made all the worse by the fact that it is further implied that Hanzo got given a Kamidogu to protect around the same time, which would have been before Takeda joined at about 8, and when Hanzo and Takeda are sent (BY RAIDEN) after a possessed Kuai Liang, Takeda is a teenager

Which means that Kuai Liang was going after the Kamidogu for years, and given his skill, it wouldn't have taken him all of those years just to locate it, it would have taken months. A single year tops.

So he was probably possessed for years.

And the comics explicitly tells us (if I remember correctly, if I don't then they Heavily implied it) that Raiden knew Kuai Liang was possessed the whole time. But instead of sending help, Raiden sent Hanzo, who had just lost his entire clan AGAIN, and was fully ready to kill Kuai Liang, which Raiden would have to be a moron to not see coming.

I don't have a point to this rant, I just wanted to point out the fact that Kuai Liang has literally never gotten a single break in his life

Was not expecting to see this, but I've never been more happier to see them kiss again

.....however they all died
