How Do Two Chinese Farmboys From Rural China Know English. Like Let's Assume The Common Language Between

how do two chinese farmboys from rural china know english. like let's assume the common language between the MK cast is english (barring outworld but it doesnt matter i bet there's some translation magic handwaved.) if we follow this train of thought it becomes entirely, hilariously possible that kung lao, wanting to bust outta fengjian and leave for the world, was like

kung lao: im going to learn english

raiden: why??

kung lao: youre going to learn it with me, we need it for when we leave this place

raiden: hold on now. what are y

kung lao, tapping away: im downloading duolingo onto your phone and i have subbed torrents of the big bang theory we're in this together brother. bazinga

continuation from this art

rainy day

Did yall know there’s a release date for mk 2 movie or is it just me

chat is this real

I love the fact that, even though Liu Kang changed a bit of everyone, either in personality or story or whatever, he DID leave Kung Lao as he was in his timeline. Because, that’s his best friend right there. His best man.

How can he bring himself to change something about Kung Lao? How can he bring himself to change his bestie? Kung Lao may not remember him, but Liu Kang does. He remembers. And leaving his friend as he remembers him, might be Liu Kang’s own way of grieving with the fact that the people he used to know, no longer exist.

Sure, there are other timelines where his friends are still alive. But as the Time Keeper, the God of Fire and the guardian of the Earthrealm, he can’t exactly go and visit them. The ones in his universe are the only ones he gets to see daily.

Yet only Geras and him remember.

You deserved better fates
