Headcannon time, but maybe a real thing???
Leon has an animation in RE4R where he massages his right shoulder for a moment, and it happens often enough that it caught my attention. So, could this be chronic pain due to an injury from the Raccoon City incident?
At first I thought it might be from when Annette Birkin shot him, but that's his left shoulder, not his right.
I also thought it could be soreness radiating down to his shoulder from being injected in the neck early on in RE4R, but i rewatched Chapter 1 of a playthru and the first time he rubs his shoulder happens before the injection cutscene.
So then... is Leon's aching right shoulder possibly from holding on to Ada before she fell to her "death" in RE2R???
Because if yes, then that is a cool continuity detail to include in RE4R.
Leon's aching right shoulder foreshadowing the return of Ada Wong.
Ada Wong being a literal permanent sore spot in Leon's life.
(it could also be something as completely mundane as Leon is right handed so he holds tension in that shoulder from firing guns, and stabbing everything all the time, but shhhhhhh! let's pretend it's not that)

Buffy was only ever with Spike because she was trying to hurt herself, he was 100% a symptom of her depression post-coming back from the dead and it's canon that she never loved him, y'all can die mad about it.

Told my family about the "Shatner" acting school game and my mom did a Kirk impression and bust out with "BONES! Tell Spock I loved him!" and then dramatically pretended to die 🤭 followed up with "I don't know why that's what I said but it was the first thing to come out" to which my sister replied "second thing to come out actually. Because y'know. *Gestures* The closet." So anyway shout-out to the space husbands on this fine Christmas Eve

I love Tumblr because before I came here I thought I was the only one who was getting a kick out of imagining my favorite characters getting tortured and going through hell, one-upping my own trauma and projecting it onto them to cope with it, making little dramatic scenarios in my head that would make any 2000s hospital series jealous. And all of this ESPECIALLY when said characters are played by cute guys.

ok,ok,ok. Look I'm completely going FERAL(tm) on main for the idea of a younger shang tsung. Early days dark magic apprentice or just freshly newly becoming a master. Like freshly cursed. Freshly scheming bastard under shao kahns court. You know early days when shang tsung basically betrayed his home realm of earthrealm (srry not srry im retconing back to his og timeline. It makes more sense and is better lore and storywise from him to be from earthrealm and absolutely says fuck you guys im switching to team outworld because shao kahn promised me shit. Oh fuck wait,he trapped me and is using me as a pawn. Oh shit. Oh well,time for scheming) You know like he's been around maybe 90 or 100yrs give or take. His physical appearance is maybe mid late 30s. And he's still trying to get the hang of his cursed to whither and age less he takes the life force/souls of others. (You guys should know by now his curse. But ya know) but yeah. Young/early days courtly sorcerer shang tsung.
Like I'm so down for a PROPPER early days shang tsung that isn't plot convenient for other characters,that isn't changing his whole personality to fit or fill plot holes,that has him actually brash,arrogant,but cunning and very fucking intelligent and dangerous. (He got better with tact over time,look carefully how he carries himself in mk11. And then 12. And see the difference. Mk11 shang is smoldering,tactful,cunning,but poised and courtly. Mk12 shang is a younger,more brash,early days,cocky,more arrogant,less tactful. Bratty even. But he learned to be better thru hardship,war,kombat,torture under shao kahn,etc. So having the idea of him not going thru that. Is interesting to say the least. What consequences would be? If certain trials and tribulations never came to fruition? Like kitana succeeds to take down shao kahn earlier on. Like shang never got tortured by shao kahn. Kitana granted him a little bit more leeway. And due to her not really needing earthrealms help. Liu kang thus never really having that bond quite like they did. A loooot would change. And it would have been more interesting of a plot than what we got. Shang tsung being a bigger threat than ever while simultaneously being the only one person who they could have the snowball chance in hell to defeat maybe shinnok or the gods or even a corrupt fire god liu kang or all three. Like this would be the true deadly alliance. Lao and shang tsung team up anyone?! Helloooo. The blueprint is right there!)
But yeah young,smug,stupud sexy shang tsung.
Im down if the story is written better,if the story is written by competent people. Who care about the characters. The lore. And the game outside of hype and making it a "marketable plushie" (tm)
Like unf
Like look at a young smug shang tsung.
