Oh Adding Onto This Idea Because Ive Been Thinking About It The Entire Day:

Oh adding onto this idea because I’ve been thinking about it the entire day:

- Taka’s the protagonist here, 100%. So many things would revolve around that weird dynamic he’s got with Mondo it’d be hard to say otherwise.

- a lot of the cases would end up terribly different, as in I’d have to rewrite complete new ones and all.

- I feel like Mondo kinda tries to keep him alive(sorta) like a weird attachment, because Taka is so full of hope why would you get rid of him so quickly? What’s interesting about that? So it’d be a little interesting to see Mondo try and get Taka out of a bad situation with subtle hints and jabs if he was accused of something.

- That fic will so end up with bundles of character analysis, as in I wanna break open Mondo and Taka’s heads like a brain surgeon and pick at it. And of course other characters too but like…mostly them :3

- Finally, this can be the best excuse ever to rewrite shit and give characters like Leon and Sayaka more time to shine(I LOVE LEON, OKAY? SUE ME! Also Sayaka’s quick descent…I wanna pick at that more)

The urge to write fanfic of mastermind mondo with a dabble with ishimondo is so STRONG. Think of not only the betrayal, but how Taka is like the antithesis of that damn school and sorta despair(in a way??). Doesn’t wanna be called a genius, wants to think the best of people and assume they’re just as righteous as he is with the same values(I mean…it’s kinda arrogance and naivety…never forget the “murderer raise their hand” idea he had, BUT it’s from a good place!) until they strongly prove otherwise. He has hope, and djfjfjjfjrjrjrjrkjk guys just imagine with me PLEASE how good this can get. Do you SEE my vision?!??!

I’ve been thinking of Kung Lao, not just MK1 but generally as a whole, and how he’s always pushed aside—number two. In some ways nothing is ever really his. Liu Kang, his best friend, becomes a god and goes onto to make a different timeline and stay there, and before that he got to be Earthrealm’s champion(in mk11 Liu Kang seemed like everything anyone EVER talked about with him). And of course it’s beyond that too: his name isn’t even his(“descendant of the great Kung Lao”), and his destiny and goals seemed to be based a lot on something predetermined for him, it’s a bit tragic.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SPECIALIST AND MOST REALIST GUY MONDO!!!!!!

AAAAA WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN WITH HIM???? he’s so criminally underrated as himself, his own character. he’s so fascinating considering how much he cared and desired to protect others yet became victim to his own ego, how strangely chill he can be at times while being so aggressive. He and Kiyotaka reminded me of strange aspects of myself, my overachieving aspect and my struggles with social interaction and not being the loudest and most awkward bitch in the room. UH ANYWAY happy birthday mondo ilyyyyyy my silly guy

Guys my finals are over…you know what that means. (Pulls up blank document cutely) It’s time to write fanfic for the first time in four years…
