I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Kingsman: The Secret Service turns ten years old in 2024.
We should organise some sort of birthday event. I feel old.

[IDs: Teo is a light-skinned boy with medium length messy black hair, partially tied in a topknot. He is in a green tunic over a grey long sleeved shirt, with black gloves. Both his legs are bandaged, and he sits in a three wheeled chair that is elongated to allow his legs to stretch out in front of him. Gazelle is a woman with medium skin tone and long dark hair. She is dressed in a neat black sweater over white dress shirt, and black leggings. Though only one is visible in this picture, both of her legs are fitted with a non human looking prosthetic from the knee down.]
Disabilities: Teo is paralyzed from the waist down, Gazelle has two prosthetic legs

I love Gazelle, she remains one of the most badass villain sidekicks ever 😍 I just wish I could draw princess cut fringe a little better >>;

Summary:
She is strong and fast and free, free of the human restraints of pain and pleasure and yearning. She is empty.

Was thinking "how can we do modern au Maul without disability erasure while maintaining the violence and posturing specific to him" and honestly I know it's not the same (because it's only part of the legs instead of all of them, but... we already have to reduce the damage since I'm pretty sure waist-down is fatal no matter what, so to what degree do we have leeway to adjust the damage), but I feel like the most fitting option is to go with Gazelle from Kingsman leg blades:
I'm looking up bilateral transfemoral amputations, and while I can find some examples of a person walking on prostheses without crutches, the way the movement works seems like it might not lend itself well to faster, more agile movements; even as he ages, Maul seems to favor jumping and spinning in his battles, though certainly less than the unnecessary flips of TPM:
A wheelchair is an option, but I feel like it maybe changes the Maul-specific vibe just because of his character's overall physicality/choice of poses, his acrobatic fighting style, and the way wheelchair-based fighting tends to be associated with characters that hide their lethality or are more refined, rather than Maul's whole... 'garbage man with a garbage plan and access to way too many swords' thing. There's that implication of a character who 'sits back,' and Maul is very rarely sitting back unless he's on the throne of Mandalore. (Then again, if someone's doing a film noir au, Maul in a wheelchair while Savage does the dirty work does sound pretty apt...)
I'm looking at images of wheelchair basketball/rugby players, and there's definitely potential, but... hm. I still feel like Gazelle's thing is more fitting, on a character level.
How about you guys? What do you think? Are there better ways to have a modern AU Maul that's not having his amputations erased completely? Is there a way to maintain his specific style of movement and forms of violence with a full-leg amputation that's closer to the waist-down from canon, or is Gazelle's blade style a better choice?

This is my first time requesting this. But can you do a headcanon of Liu Kang and Kung Lao with reader that has a bladed armor boots that can almost slice through everything in one slash as their weapon? Almost like Gazelle from Kingsman: The Secret Service (sorry if you don't know that movie and sorry if you don't understand what i mean, I'm not good at english)
i wrote this in the middle of some pmdd insomnia so sorry if its a bit shit x
MK Lads x S/O!With-Bladed-Boots
Kung Lao
- this man has a major leg fetish
- tried tiding up your shoes once and almost died
- he wants you to step on him so badly but he also wants to live, terrible conundrum really
Liu Kang
- you guys take turns setting up targets for the other to kick the shit out of
- will give you a foot massage after a long day of slicing bitches with your murder shoes
- regular dates include getting iced tea and going for pedicures because foot care is important when they are your primary mode of violence
