CAN I CAN I REQUEST
listen im a sucker for coffee shop owner/worker reader x character
So, imagine Jax (after joining the OIA with Kenshi) goes to a coffee shop with Kenshi once, and Kenshi falls in love with the reader and he really tries to flirt with them
I'M SO DOWN DEVIOUS FOR BOTH OF THEM
Hey, do you work here? (·ω<)☆
Cringe, I’ve never flirted with someone in person before LMAO kenshi is like Johnny but toned down a lot, he's a bit silly
Jax and Kenshi are going to their local café, frequented by the special forces and OIA
After Jax founded the OIA, he invited Kenshi to grab a coffee and snack to celebrate Earth Realm's newest defenders
He took him up on his offer, pleased to see his friend continue to protect and save people, even after everything that had happened to him
After arriving at the local coffee shop, Kenshi is met with a gorgeous sight
You.
You give him a small smile with teeth, he's floored
He walks up with Jax, smoothing his hair with his hands
‘Hello, how are you today?’
You even sound pretty, nothing like how others try to sound loud and rugged to assert dominance
‘We’re good um..’
He forgot to even look at the menu, now he’s a little nervous
Jax steps in, gives you his order and picks something sweet for Kenshi
He looks at the ground embarrassed, but he has more of an indifferent expression on his face
‘Can I get a name for that order?’
Kenshi gives you a series of numbers- his number
‘That will be out shortly..’
He might have just messed up, and ruined Jax’s reputation
Or maybe he’s overthinking (woah free head cannon for you guys 🤯🤯)
But he probably should have just given you his name and taken his delicate ass out of there to wallow on how he could have asked you out (WOAH another head cannon)
But when the order comes out, his cup has your number on it
He and Jax conjure up what he's going to say to you
He settles on asking you out on a date
‘It's the guy from the coffee shop. I was wondering you would want to hang out sometime?’
You respond a few minutes later
‘Okay. How about the movies?’
He desides to send a cheesy line to that
‘I would take you there but they don't let you bring your own snacks in’
Score. Call him Michael Jackson because he is one smooth criminal
‘Haha okay. We could go out to a diner tonight if that works for you?’
‘That works. I could meet you there at 6 if that's fine?’
‘Sounds good. I'll see you there ;)’
He and Jax spend the rest of their time together joking and preparing for his date. He's glad to continue working to defend Earthrealm- yet having time to enjoy himself
After the date, he takes you home and frequents the coffee shop more
He now is a regular with Jax- and comes in to steal a glance at you before he starts his day
You two are an unstoppable duo and complement each other
Then you two have a house and kid, and then like every husband with a wife and kid, you get brutally murdered and he has to continue without you. Forever living on in your memory

if I was ever going to write about cageblind (which, by god, I can't right now - I'm having too much of a shit time atm) but if I was, I'd have to do it from the world Snow Blind set up.
the whole 'Earth is nothing but a dystopian wasteland - cheers Kano' is so much more interesting and open to (post) canon divergence than Cage Match's 'America in the 80s'
yes, it would mean completely altering Johnny's backstory to fit the setting, but c'mon, that's a piece of piss.
I'm not going to elaborate now but I have thought about it. I'd just turn Cage into a rancher/wrangler-turned mercenary. A bit like Erron, just less successful and a whole lot more light-hearted. He's still gotta be a silly, little, goofy guy after all.
He'd keep his 'blood of the Gods' heritage, but I'd just use it in the way MK11 does. and yes, I would let him keep his sacrificial tats.
and I would also retcon how fucked up Kenshi gets at the end of the film. like dude is burnt to shit and missing fingers. Not that I'm against characters getting severely fucked up, this is mortal kombat lmao, but they did that to him on purpose. There is never going to be a sequel, d'you think they'd curse the animators like that? never.
anyways, ahhh, I'm rambling when I told myself I wouldn't, enjoy my thoughts™
