The Lin Kuei trios dad showing Liu Kang, Sindel and Jerrod around the Lin Kuei grounds.
Sektor: Grandmaster, can I have a cookie?
Grandmaster, while handing Sektor a cookie: becoming Grandmaster was like a seismic shift to my brain-
Kuai: Father! Frost bit me!
Grandmaster, to Frost: no biting!
Bi-Han: Father, I don’t see how any realm stands a chance.
Grandmaster: you aren’t wrong.
Cyrax, comes waddling in: I’m stuck in this bucket.
Grandmaster: okay! I’ll handle all of that. Just give your Grandmaster two seconds.
Grandmaster, while turning to Liu Kang, Sindel and Jerrod: Ahem! As a grandmaster-
Tomas: Father! Guess what! I have pink eye!
Liu Kang: oh my-
Sindel: by Argus!
Jerrod, while looking away: oh fuck!

Lin kuei hc
working on art but in the meantime take this
bi-han does care bout his sibling but doesn’t know how to show it
He would protect his siblings when he was younger as much as he could and continued to do so, he just lost touch with reality and most emotions
Bi han also went thru tougher training than the others cause his role and didn’t spend a lot of time around them
After Tomas’s family was killed, he fell into a heavy depressive state, he locked himself in a room and wouldn’t take care of himself
Bi han and kuai liang both helped Tomas get back on his feet after his family was destroyed
Bi Han (and Kuai’s) mom taught him how to braid his hair and he often wore it in a braid until his mom died
Bi Han views Tomas as a brother but will never acknowledge it… man has a shit load of issues (let me be delusional)
Sareena is one of the only people who can and will put bi han in his place and it’s funny to witness (this man afterwards isn’t even mad he’s just shocked)
Tomas and Kuai were pretty much inseparable growing up (it used to be the three of them but then training started so it dwindled down to two)
Tomas Chinese sucks, so they mostly conversed in English (only Kuai learned enough Czech to communicate with him)
Tomas can pick up both his brothers, this man has bicep muscles for fucking days (it absolutely confuses and scares both of them)
Post-betrayl Kuai would hardly sleep and when Tomas found out he would just chill with him until he fell asleep
Harumi is a childhood friend, I’m assuming they met during a long mission in Japan and kept in touch afterwards
First time Harumi met/saw (post-betrayal) Bi han she did not hesitate to threaten to cut his dick off, Bi han was shocked and Kuai fell more in love
Sibling trait shared between Bi han and Kuai, Taste in women: strong and powerful and can probably kick their ass. Taste in men: questionable (more so Bi han than Kuai)
Tomas has a more brutal killing style (just look at the fatalities) because he grew up trying to fit in and be enough for the Lin kuei
Only reason Tomas likes the Lin kuei is because of the kindness Kuai Liang (and a bit of Cyrax) showed him
Every time Tomas does smth that pisses Bi han off, bi han would reply with smth along the lines of “goddamn Europeans and their goddamn tea”
Both Madam Bo and Liu Kang helped train the Lin kuei brothers (and madam Bo become a parental figure)
If Tomas gets flustered of embarrassed smoke will just start appearing
Bi han has permanent frost bite on his skin, issues of being a cyromancer
tomas and kuai liang still hang out with the champion gang, still going to madam Bo’s tea shop
johnny still harasses Kuai about being in his movies, Kuai still turns him down
sektor is a huuuyuge tech and mechanics nerd, he’s good with computers, and can take things apart and put it back together without trying
i kinda feel like giving with gender fluid or non binary cyrax because in mk9-11 cyrax was a guy or robot and now cyrax is a women….. so fuck gender honestly
whenever they use their magic fucking power things (idfk what it’s called) they’re eyes change color, Bi Han’s turn blue, Kuai liang’s turn yellow/orange, and Tomas’s turn either darker grey/black or grey/yellow combo (I say that cause enenra and mkx stuff 🤷🤷🤷)

Absolutely, positively heartbreaking that we don’t get to see the Lin Kuei ever act causally or have a light hearted conversation that’s beyond their “duty” or “missions” because it’s always, “Revenge” “Honour” “Cyber initiative” “Clan this” “Clan that”. Like you made them brothers and then 5 minutes later made:
- Bi Han actively treat Tomáš badly (Poor Tomáš)
- Bi Han admitting to letting their father die (“a lie”)
- Bi Han and Kuai Liang fighting with Kuai getting scarred (physically and mentally probably)
- Kuai Liang and Tomáš leaving the Lin Kuei (*crying screaming throwing up* it’s ok, it’s ok, I’m ok)
- Starting the Shirai Ryu after running away from Bi Han to Japan (why is Hanzo a child!?!?)
- Bi Han “starting” the Cyber Lin Kuei (I hope it’s just robots and not putting your essence/soul in a machine)
- Kuai and Tomáš fighting alongside Deadly Alliance and Bi Han is nowhere to be found (what was HE doing?!? How long was my boy out?)
Wdym we don’t get THEM sitting around having a cup of tea at Madame Bo’s???
Scorpion and Sub Zero are seemly damned to tragic lives but it’s also to the characters who hold those mantles to also suffer sad fates. They can never JUST be brothers. Deadly assassins or Earthrealm defenders, they can’t have normal lives being brothers that have depth but instead are just “evil brother” and “good brother” and now “adopted brother”.
**Also give us Human Cyrax and Sektor, if they aren’t assassins I would assume Bi Han has somewhat more of friendly relationship with those two for them to be so fiercely loyal, give him some friends he has no friends**

Thinking about the Defenders and language again.
Liu and Lao sassing each other in Mandarin while around others.
Nightwolf being overheard speaking in Lakota while phoning his aunt.
Smoke muttering words of Czech to himself despite no longer remembering what they mean.
Cyrax and Sektor gossiping in Setswana because almost everyone else knows Mandarin.
Lord Raiden responding to people in different languages because he studies languages so often to immortalize his Defenders lives.
