au where bi-han's "betrayal" was just a ruse to escape and kuai and tomas never leave the lin kuei. shang tsung loses evrything, his soul stealers, dragon army + allies so he just walks into the lin kuei one day and says he wants to join up. bi-han scoffs, cause the lin kuei "breed the best warriors in earthrealm with absolute loyalty to the clan" basically from infancy, you don't just waltz in and sign up like it's a gym membership! but shang says smth like "you'll find me quite breedable." bi-han goes silent, gives him that little eyebrow raise and just like that shang's in. everyone instantly loathes him esp kuai but ironically, bi-han who is the biggest hater (besides frost) is the only one who can seem to tolerate shang cause they're constantly validating each other's delusions of grandeur. kuai's almost always outraged at everything shang proposes cause his plans sound completely unhinged and lowkey sinister so he immediately denounces it like "father would not approve." and shang smirks and purrs "your father is not here and i do not need his approval nor yours~only that of our grandmaster~" and from then on in clan meetings he's just sitting in bi-han's lap preening while bi-han strokes him like a cat. all the lower lin kuei are confused af at this turn of events and meanwhile kuai, tomas, sektor and cyrax are all plotting several different ways to murder shang and undo whatever brainwashing he did to bi-han without lobotimizing him.
An update on Milo!!!! He’s grown really confident and trusting (of me) he did super well at his first vet appointment and actively steps on my laptop to prevent me from writing which is adorable but annoying
Ok I've been gone for a bit and I will probably be gone for a bit more bc I've been part of a toa project for a while and I really need to finish that ;-;. So have Apollo and Meg as warrior cats bc I am losing my grip on reality.

Calum would like it to go on the record that Luke never wanted to keep the cat in the first place.
Luke would argue that’s not entirely true.
Not that it matters anyway, because when Calum shows up in their flat after work, hoodie soaked through, a pitiful mewing coming from his pocket and a beseeching look in his eyes, there was no way Luke would have had it in him to say no.
(I know some of these characters have been cast in movies already but I wanted them to be near the same age and wanted to start from scratch. No hate to any actress that plays any of these characters.)
