It's...just...some fun with three Shang Tsung ships on Tumblr...

Shang Tsung x Quan Chi Headcanons

-Both SFW and NSFW

-Headcanons based on MK1 story mode and my own interpretation

-Writing under read more

SFW

They were attracted to each other from the start but were too isolated in their lives to pit a finger in their feelings

If they can, they are always side by side

It's a comfort they found on accident

Quan Chi is the only one who can touch Shang Tsung's things and vice versa

Neither of them can sleep in comfy beds - Shang Tsung prefers a pillow and some thin sheets, Quan Chi can sleep on the ground without anything

Quan Chi's mining experience comes in handy

"What is so important about this rock?" "That is black obsidian, you fool."

They will have troubles breaking apart some rocks and Quan Chi just waltzes over, takes the pickaxe and in one swift move breaks it, gives it back and leaves without any word

Shang Tsung: 'I wish that were me'

Their moves while casting magic stems from their backround - Shang Tsung is more elegant and gracious, while Quan Chi is more calculated and does not make any unnecessary moves that would drain energy

Quan Chi observes as Shang Tsung makes new elixirs and potions

At first, Shang Tsung thought Quan Chi was going to criticize him but when none came it made him even more uneasy

"Why are you here?" "Am I not allowed to watch my partner work?"

Since then it became their routine

Neither of them liked physical touch at the start

They touched each other on accident when they were reaching for the same thing

It was like they were burned

Shang Tsung keeps his distance but Quan Chi is left wanting more

Quan Chi initiates their close proximity, hand on Shang Tsung's shoulder, brushing their shoulders together

When Shang Tsung works, Quan Chi looks over his shoulder, pressing his chest to Shang Tsung's back, placing his hands next to Shang's

Just to see that soft blush

Shang Tsung wants but he doesn't know how to ask

So instead of asking verbally, he gives hints

While working, pulls his hair to the side, exposing the back of his neck

Quan Chi grows weak

And presses his lips to the exposed skin

Shang Tsung tenses up, shudder running trough him

Quan Chi thinks he has hurt him and backs away and doesn't initiate more close encounters

Shang Tsung keeps giving hints but it is like Quan Chi doesn't even see

It's Shang Tsung who has had enough and corners Quan Chi in a secluded area

And Shang Tsung can't say what he wants so he just pulls Quan Chi into s kiss

It's quick and clumsy and Shang Tsung's cheeks are *burning*

When Quan Chi doesn't react, Shang Tsung is ready to bolt but gets stopped when he is pulled into a deep kiss

The rest is a history from there

Shang Tsung is the little spoon

One wouldn't think that they would be a healthy couple, but they are

Always asking for consent

Well, Quan Chi does

Shang Tsung still doesn't know how to ask for affection so he gives hints

Quan Chi learned to understand but is trying to teach Shang Tsung to voice what he wants

They can get easily overwhelmed with affection and touches - so they learned how to show or tell

Shang Tsung finds himself tracing Quan Chi's tattoos

They love to have a quiet sit down and enjoy a book or a snack

NSFW

Quan Chi is soft

Peppers the small scars Shang Tsung with kisses

They take everything slow

Quan Chi holds Shang Tsung close while they are joined as one

Shang Tsung is crying and sobbing mess each time - not because he's hurting, it's because he's in overwhelming pleasure

Quan Chi whispers sweet things as he makes love to Shang Tsung

Shang Tsung leaves scratches on Quan Chi's back

Quan Chi lets Shang Tsung explore, earning his trust

Shang Tsung asks for no marks and Quan Chi obliges

- So my brain went bloop halfway through, feel free to add your own!

Two magical bitches in love

After watching MK Legends Scorpion's Revenge I think I ship Shang Tsung and Quan Chi. Mostly cos I feel it would be like shipping two Starscream's together that are constantly trying to kill each other.

It was specifically after the scene where Quan Chi tried to poison Shang's drink and Shang can instantly tell and then turns on him. For some reason I interpret Shang's speech after that as "You know we could totally be a thing if you didn't keep being devoted to that god that no one likes".

You also have the opening cutscene of MK Deception they both team up to kill Raiden, succeed, and then do not even wait until his body is cold on the floor to start betraying each other. Amazing.

They're the Deadly Alliance. No one can match them when they combine forces. Together they can bring the realms to their knees. They will also turn on each other on a dime because neither of them can stop being treacherous for a second, and it's both their greatest strength and their greatest hindrance. They're perfect for each other.

"One part of me wanted to cheer for Hanzo, when the other part just wanted to stop him."

"It felt like…I was being torn apart at that moment too…"

Probably only for archival purpose: a failed attempt to create an imaginary scene in one of the many MK AUs out there.

Good Shang Tsung x Evil to Neutral Quan Chi, who was killed by Hanzo Hasashi before he could evolve more.

Quan Chi still did what he did to Hanzo and his family in this timeline like in the original. So a debt still needs to be paid.

Fujin is a close friend and mentor to good Shang Tsung. He paid the sorcere a visit the night after Quan Chi's death. And the sorcerer began to tell the windgod what he had experienced earlier.

Can't decide if Fujin is a titan and the keeper of time in this timeline and the reason Shang Tsung didn't stop Hanzo from killing Quan Chi. These are the major reasons this imaginary scene have failed at last.

(And sorry for the English again. not a native speaker)
