Ok but Noah keeps doing this thing with his big eyes whenever he's playing Will in season 4 that just makes me want to squish him into a blanket, roll him around like a burrito and keep him safe forever and ever and I particularly think that's pretty normal.
I'm still bitter about how Bi-Han is written. I know he's supposed to be an egotistical asshole but making him evil right off the bat will always be annoying to me. It makes his transition to Noob Saibot seemed kind of a waste.
Buuuut I am glad Noob fought alongside Earthrealm during this story. He still ended up being bad, which again annoying. Like, why is he not allowed to redeem himself? Especially after literally being tortured to madness. I will say, his bickering with Kuai was hilarious. Probably to most "brother" moment ever between them.
Cyrax was adorable. Fuck the racists (who forget Cyrax was Black since Deadly Alliance) and woman haters, she was great. She looked so cute outside of her armor as well. Sektor was a bitch, so bless her for that. Uhm...I don't know how I feel about her relationship with Bi-Han. It feels forced like Kuai Liang and Harumi.
Speaking of which, still weirded out about Kuai as Scorpion. I think I just hate it now. It was interesting at first, but the way they make him kind of erase his Chinese heritage it...gross. And I just miss Grandmaster !Kuai Liang! Sub-Zero. I'm glad we saw Harumi fight and NOT DIE. Bless her. Hanzo must be screaming somewhere.
Military Jonny was fucking adorable. Emperor Rain was cute...and then he died. Empress Tanya was stunning. Punk rock Mileena and Kitana were hot. Hope they're skins. Punk rock Kuai Liang and Bi-Han were fucking hot. Need them in my life.
Over all...yeah. It was just ok. Better than what I expected but not that great.
Bi-Han and Kuai Liang being what they are right now is just making me sad and stupidly emotional.
If I was Orpheus I wouldn't have looked back at Eurydice. I would have looked down at the ground to maximize the framerate, and then repeatedly run into Cerberus' second head to perform the Cerberus Skip and warp up to the entrance of Hades. I've done this five times and last time I did manage to shave three and a half seconds off my personal best thanks to favorable Cerberus cycle RNG. I honestly don't get why that dweeb Orpheus could not do this, or even a simple Sisyphus Glide
I hate that planned obsolescence is starting to reach fandoms. I hate that fandoms are starting to die after two, three years, I hate that whenever you stop getting content that means the fandom will die and be gone.
I need people to stop trying to brush off old interests as being 'cringe' as soon as you lose interest, or worse: make it seem like it's imoral to like something that they themselves held so dear before.
Fandoms are meant to last for years and years, the moment content stops being created is the moment we truly thrive because we keep creating the content ourselves the way we love it and expand on the things that are already there for us.
I don't care if you lost interest on something, it's fine and normal even, but stop trying to blame and make fun of people who still do love the fandom and the content and the things we can create.
Naomi tells Cas he has to choose "us, or them" and 'them' is meant to imply Sam and Dean both, but then
she makes Cas kill fake copies of Dean only
Or Metatron will speechify about how Cas is "in love... with humanity"
and then give Cas another lil speech about how it was all "to save Dean Winchester. That was your goal, right? I mean, you draped yourself in the flag of Heaven, but ultimately it was about saving one human, right?"
Ishim shows up and tries to tell Cas how weak he is for befriending Sam and Dean
and then when he wants to "cure" Cas of his human weakness, that weakness is just Dean
AND THEN you'll have things like
Sam will say that Cas is family, that he'd die for him
but he also refers to Cas as an "it" just hanging around in a vessel strong enough to take on Lucifer (in season 11!! It's not like he said that in s4 or something, it was like 8 years after knowing the guy)
Or in "Regarding Dean," Dean will say to Sam "and our best friend's an angel!"
and then when he's by himself in the mirror, he'll say "and Cast--Cas is my best friend."
Forget the obsession with laced combat boots and all those other military grade footwear. Jason wouldn't wear laces. They're impractical. They're flammable. They're dangerous. That was the only good thing about the og Robin suit.
He'd have tanker boots. With straps and buckles. They're made to be easier to remove, and that can be a simple comfort if he's coming back home injured and just wants to get out of the heavy getup. Or y'know, if he rolls an ankle on wild bat stunts and it swells.
They also have better circulation! Tankers can spend a lot of time sitting. Jason's not a stranger to long stake outs either.
