An interesting detail about Titan Bi-Han
I'm sure I'm not the first one to point this out, but can we talk about how Union of Light Bi-Han is no longer wearing the Lin Kuei symbol attached to the ribbon on his arm?
I'd like to think that it's because Union of Light Bi-Han is finally free of the Lin Kuei's influence. While our timeline's Bi-Han's only focus is the future of his clan, a future he is willing to die for, this Titan version of Bi-Han seems at peace with himself and content with where he stands in life. Whatever journey he's been on, it must have helped him to see the bigger picture and helped shape him into a more mature and responsible person, which is why he's helping in the fight against Titan Shang Tsung. Union of Light Bi-Han is still a proud Lin Kuei, but his loyalty to his clan no longer dominates his life.
To the main timeline's Bi-Han, the Lin Kuei are the bigger picture. It's also quite interesting that the Lin Kuei symbol on his arm is worn on the left side, the side the heart is on. SPOILERS: In a leaked intro dialogue with Ermac, Bi-Han mentions that the Lin Kuei fight as one with him as their heart and mind. Having lost his brothers, his clan is now all Bi-Han has left and knowing that he will lose that too makes his ending all the more bitter.
I'd really like to know Union of Light Bi-Han's backstory. Is he still the Lin Kuei's grandmaster? Maybe he left the clan like he did in one of his old arcade endings, maybe in his own timeline, the Lin Kuei are much more peaceful than in other timelines. I wish we could see more of that version of Bi-Han, but I doubt we will.

───────────────────────────
you've been tasked with organizing the cleaning tools and supplies as it's your responsibility to take care of cleaning the backyard today.
while absorbed in the task, you failed to notice someone entering the room.
“so this where you were…”
caught off guard, you dropped what you were holding.
“by the gods! you- wait. how did you know i was there?”
“unimportant.”
you sighed as you picked up what you had dropped.
“i swear you almost scared me to death…”
“death may be imminent for you depending on your answer to my oncoming question.”
you paused, reflecting on his words with closed eyes and furrowed brows, then shook your head.
“ok… what have i done?”
you replied as you continued with your task.
“don't assume I overlooked your actions with that foolish monk.”
you quickly turned around to gauge his expression, and you could discern his anger beneath the mask. the least you could said was that you were doomed.
“who? raiden?”
“the other foolish monk.”
in an instant, everything made sense in your thoughts.
“ohhhh… kung lao! haha…”
“is this amusing to you?”
“it's just that... i don't understand what you're accusing me of.”
“quit feigning ignorance; you know exactly what I'm referring to.”
you huffed.
“if only!”
you pivoted entirely to confront him.
“why not be more direct about what I've done wrong? it could help us make progress. just saying.”
“what was the reason for him holding you earlier?”
“ohhhh…”
you recalled the events from this morning.
“explain.”
you waved your hand at him, dispelling his concerns.
“it was nothing; i just lightly twisted my ankle, that's all.”
“what?”
he nearly rushed to you, but you halted him in his tracks.
“bi-han, i said "lightly." it was truly nothing, just a slight twinge of pain. that's why kung lao got a bit carried away and assisted me.”
he huffed, swiftly raising his chin in disdain.
“he didn't just assist; he practically enveloped you.”
“if you had witnessed the entire scene, you would have observed me leaping out of his arms.”
“i should consider tearing his arms off for this.”
“huuum, sexy~”
“alright, I'm done dealing with your attitude.”
you began to laugh at his irritated expression, prompting a deadly glare from him. he then turned away to leave.
“oh come on! don't give me the cold shoulder now!”
you spoke amid laughter.
he halted, slowly pivoting to cast upon you the most exasperated expression.
“oop- no pun intended!”
his sigh was so deep and prolonged it caused the room temperature to plummet by at least five degrees which elicited a shiver from you.
you shrugged apologetically, wearing a sorry smile, and approached him slowly. softly chuckling, you ran your hand over his torso, eliciting an eye roll of annoyance from him due to your feeble attempts to soothe his nerves. he subtly made sure you weren't limping.
“don't be upset with me. you're well aware that I have no interest in him.”
he didn't respond but glanced back at you with a raised eyebrow, prompting a smile from you. you couldn't resist the urge to tease him.
“you are incredibly cute when jealousy surfaces, grandmaster.”
“i am not.”
“oh yes, you are!”
you spoke as you gently tapped his torso.
“whatever you stance, i’ll leave you to it. i have duties to fulfill.”
he said as he walked past you, intentionally bumping into you to clear his way. you let out a small whine in response to his abruptness.
“bi-han! we are not done here!”
“in my perspective, we are.”
you sighed, crossing your arms. you knew he was thickheaded before, but now he's just downright childish.
you watched him leave, but he suddenly halted in his tracks and spoke without turning back.
“i will meet you tonight… we’ll dine out.”
you gasped in excitement, placing your hand over your mouth to suppress your laughter.
“ow… you big softie <3”
he grunted and shook his head, immediately regretting his statement.
