Tomás Vrbada:
✧Supportive of the chaos from the jump
✧He doesn’t question it
✧Doesn’t judge it
✧He’s already nodding along by the second “YEAH!”
✧Probably throws in a confused but enthusiastic “YEAH?”
✧Treats the whole thing like a locker-room pep talk
✧If you say you need snacks, whiteboards, glitter pens, or emotional support?
✧He’s ON IT
✧Gives you the same energy Bobby does in the movie
✧Fully believes in the plan
✧Doesn’t understand all of it
✧Would die for you anyway
✧Later tells Kuai:
✧”I dunno man, it felt powerful.”
Kuai Liang:
✧His face mirrors Bi-Han’s at first
✧Concerned
✧Slightly alarmed
✧Definitely confused
✧The way your expressions get more unhinged with each “YEAH!” is quite… the show
✧He’s biting the inside of his cheek trying not to laugh
✧Finds it deeply entertaining that you look like feral little war planners
✧When Bi-Han glares at him like don’t you dare—
✧Kuai just shrugs, smiling
✧“They seem… motivated.”
✧Later absolutely brings it up again just to watch you do it on purpose
Bi-Han:
✧He starts out neutral.
✧Mildly impressed, even
✧You’re leaders. Strategists. Professionals.
✧Then the first “YEAH!” happens
✧His brows knit
✧The second “YEAH!” but louder?
✧Jaw tightens
✧By the third one, he’s already decided this is his personal punishment for past sins
✧Watching you, Kitana, and Mileena devolve into increasingly unhinged hype noises?
✧Any respect he had?
✧Gone
✧Deleted
✧Factory reset
✧Arms crossed
✧Full death stare
✧These are the warriors Liu Kang trusts with the realms?
✧Actively reconsidering every compliment he’s ever given you
✧“If this is your method of planning, we are doomed.”
✧Still helps anyway
✧Unfortunately for him, he’s in love
