Baraka already worried constantly about giving you his disease if you weren’t already infected. So to him, your health was the utmost importance and seeing you well was a sign that he didn’t harm you. When it was reported that you’d fallen ill from the lack of sleep, he would help you as often as possible but take his frustration out on some of the colony for not looking after you when he can’t. He’d even ask Mileena if there is anything she could do to help you, or advice, but he’d rely mostly on what he knew.

Bi Han would have noticed something was up when you didn’t sleep when it came time to. He might not care too much at first when he sees you’re still functioning but that changes entirely when one of his subordinates told him that you were rushed to the infirmary because you felt like you were suffocating. He will know what’s wrong with you whether you tell him or not, and until you rest, you’ll be bedridden. If he can’t bring you things you ask for himself, he’ll get others (or his brothers) to do it for you… Except for cuddles/intimacy.

General Shao begins to worry on the inside when you start to get sick, but he keeps he’s tough exterior. He’ll investigate your current habits if he hasn’t already, and go to the best doctors in all of Outworld for help. When he gets to the bottom of it, don’t try to deny it—he notes your dark under eye. He knows what it’s like to be sick and it is not fun at all. He scolds you for not taking care of yourself, even a little offended that you’d do such a thing while with him. However, he relies on the doctors who he sends on order to report to him. You don’t get to leave until he thinks you’re okay, regardless of what the doctors say.

Geras doesn’t need sleep, but that doesn’t mean he is unaware of the importance of it. When you stay up with him to bond over the hourglass and timelines, it’s fun… At first. But when you keep doing it day after day and night after night, he hints at your depleted energy as of late. You may brush it off, but he looks into what this could mean for you. Ideally, he stops it one way or another before it could get worse.

Havik thinks it a major nuisance, and it mostly wouldn’t stop him in his endeavors. He doesn’t care for how you look. When you begin to have physical complications from your exhaustion, he lets it only so far thinking you’ve got it before he himself stops it. While he bounds you to the bed until you sleep, he’s out doing what he normally does best. He comes straight back to you, though, but don’t mention it at all to him. He doesn’t want something so tame like that exposed.

Johnny Cage would innocently comment on how you look the moment it started to show. It would start an argument from how agitated you’ve been lately, sure, but he says it’s out of concern (and love) for you. He gives you just about anything that could help you sleep. If you get ill from not being able to, he makes you see a doctor. Either that, or he “has some ideas that could tire you out”. You roll tired eyes, whatever that means.

Kenshi would also note your sullen look if he sees it [through sento], but much more cordially and obviously a lot more genuinely concerned. He doesn’t mind if he should stay home and cuddle to sleep at all, and it makes him a little sad when you turn him down. When you eventually get sick from your habits, he argues with you briefly as soon as you’re sentient again, but becomes your ultimate schedule reminder. You scared him half to death.

Kitana pulled you aside, even going as far as to get you excused you from your duties for a moment so that you could get some rest. When you fall ill from it she wants updates on your health even if you’re stagnant. She offers you certain herbal remedies to encourage sleep, and gets you a spa day so that you could look a little bit better than what you did before (and hopefully encourage you to sleep). News of your troubles don’t leave where you stay, and she’s discreet about it so you do not get embarrassed amongst your peers. Rumors are dispelled with the quickness.

Kuai Liang worries about you first, gets information second, and then makes a solution last. He listens to you talk about your problems sleeping when you eventually fall ill from the lack. He feels somewhat guilty for not checking on you as you are in his arms every night, but he feels that brainstorming with you and those who are experienced in health a plan that would help you recover is the best apology even though you remind him it’s not his fault. You’ll be required to rest, and he’ll make sure you do before he ever gets any sleep at all.

Kung Lao notices first and foremost when you start to deny rigorous activity with him. It’s only then does he realize how exhausted you look, and for once he gets serious and somewhat selfless. He fights off any of the ill feelings with medicine, all while getting you to do things not too strenuous on your body so that it gets you tired enough to sleep (even if it was just for a minute). He spends as much time needed until it goes away entirely, because he’s relentless like that and not the type to give up or leave you to it. And sometimes, when he’s trying to get you to sleep, he accidentally makes himself fall asleep.

Liu Kang already knows before it gets too late to find out, so it’s no use hiding it from him. He personally clears your schedule somehow, and if you want to work, you can’t. He’s upset with you because of how he found out you haven’t been sleeping, not because you haven’t been sleeping. He makes you prove that you are able-bodied enough to start moving around again when you insist that you can; he begins to check for you at night, having fixed a sleep schedule for you to follow. He complies if you need help sleeping again, and only leaves to return to the hourglass once you’re fast asleep.

Li Mei is the utmost level about it. After you get sick by it, she’s perfectly rehearsed and practiced, but doesn’t enjoy when others franticness starts to impede on her moves. Eventually, your comfort lie solely in her and her quarters instead of some royal infirmary or hospital. She accommodates for you, and covers for you if there are others checking for you elsewhere. She knows a thing or two about exhaustion, so she makes great efforts to help you sleep regularly from now on.

Mileena hardly leaves your side. When you collapse from your breathlessness, Princess!Mileena forgets that she’s not yet Empress. The stress does eventually get to her and it hikes up her symptoms of Tarkat, so once she bounces back from it, she immediately asks about you. She may pull away to engage in her royal duties, but she gets them done quickly and comes back to you as both Empress and Princess. She even bathes in some sort of relaxing herb so that when you both cuddle, you’ll be more prone to falling asleep.

Nitara scours her people’s remedies for a cure. It took her some time, but it doesn’t matter—it doesn’t really work anyway. You’re still tired and ill. As she searches for remedies she brings up the topic of being immortal; she doesn’t press if you deny. She asks a few of her more trusted coven members to look over you when she’s away, and she’s there in an instant when you so much so think of her.

Quan Chi is disappointed, but he helps anyway. He deals more in death and whatnot, but he knows a thing or two about the health of self. He does what he knows best, and if need be, he does great research before making a move. Whenever he feels annoyed from your stubbornness to sleep, that’s when he scolds you for being so reckless. But he wouldn’t let you go unattended.

Raiden chastises you all the way to the infirmary. You’d collapse mid-conversation, unable to breathe and now his hearts racing. When you end up okay, he wants to know what’s going on immediately. He tries not to be so upset with you, but he does everything in his power to help you. Herbal teas, medicine, gentle work over a span of hours—everything. He keeps using what he sees works best. He’s your alarm now and he forces you to sleep when he does; if he could stare at you until you fell asleep he would, but that’s counterproductive.

Rain gently taps you on the head with his staff when you look out of it. He gets annoyed when he’d have to keep doing it, and eventually confronts you. He gives you solid advice if he can’t do it himself, and he checks up on you very often. He feels a sense of shame and guilt from not being more concerned with you and more with his work, and for mindlessly hitting you in the head when you obviously weren’t feeling well. He’s unsure of how to make it up to you, but he’ll get it eventually if you don’t tell him.

Reiko acts as your personal guard already, and it’s only worsened when you can hardly function. One by one does he get some of his more insignificant duties off of him so that he has more time with you. If General Shao knows, he may offer some sort of help. Reiko sometimes makes himself late to duty so that he can take care of you, until he’s sure you’ll be fine on your own for an entire day. He sometimes comes back to you in the middle of duty, when things are boring and he can sneak away, and he helps you get as much sleep as possible from then on.

Shang Tsung makes a snide remark before casting some sort of spell on you to sleep. Before, he’d just made some sort of joke about how tired you look and smothers you with slightly sardonic pet names, but the total 180 when you couldn’t breathe could kill someone. It’s the most emotion he’s shown other than his usual in so so long, and once you’ve come to your senses he practically threatens you to get better. He’d help here and there, but your recovery is reduced to a side hustle over time.

Sindel first noticed when you became lackluster in your work. She confronted you firmly, and only backed off when you assured her that you could continue working. When she caught wind you had ended up in the medics hands, she focused on fixing you first before confronting you on your lie. She’d be hurt, at first, and she temporarily relieves you from your work. You’ll have your own private quarters if you haven’t already, and more luxury that she thinks will help you feel better. Even if you apologize, she’s already made up a reason why you did it and accepts that. However, you’re required to see her now.

Syzoth genuinely starts to act beside himself even at the first sign of complication. He searches all the land for remedies for your kind, and comes back to you to help heal you whether or not he’s successful. Outside of remedies he initiates naps, cuddles and everything nice that would get you to sleep. Deep purrs from his chest as a lullaby. He’s constantly monitoring you when you’re up and active, clinging to your side. When he thinks that you’ve been out for too long, he insists to go back to sleep some more.

Tanya covers for you before you even know. Your lack of sleep makes you overlook things, and she’s been trailing behind you and fixing your mishaps. She’s meant to confront you, and when you collapse before her unable to breathe it’s as if she already knows what to do. When you’re lying in her bed recovering from the incident, she tells you what she’s going to do—it’s not an open ended choice.

Tomas Vrbada is far too observant. He may be busy with Hanzo, but that doesn’t mean he can’t check for you. He pesters you as you get tireder and tireder each day, and eventually catches you up and not sleeping. It sprouts the conversation of your sleeping habits and he’s overall sympathetic to your guilt. He doesn’t let it get to the point of you being sick; and if for some reason it does, he’s already right there to help you (even if his heart is going a million miles an hour). He begins to stop working later so that you eat, sleep and do routines on time.

@𝐕𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐙𝐈𝐍𝐀೨

Versión en español! ¡Esta es mi canción favorita!, voy a hacer algunos headcons de Geras de Mortal Kombat ya que he visto que no tiene muchos y es uno de mis personajes favoritos!

Geras Headcons!

★¡Geras te ama con todo lo que puede! Aunque no pueda expresarse bien en el ámbito del amor, intentará hacértelo saber de cualquier forma que le sea posible. (regalos, comprados o hechos a mano)

★¿Si estas cansado? ¡Ningún problema! ¡Geras está aquí para salvarte con mimos y cariño! Aunque no sepa mucho sobre el amor, intenta hacer lo mejor y más cómodo para su pareja.

★Recuerda cualquier día especial para ti estará con cualquier regalo (aunque no de lo pidas) , es muy bueno recordando fechas especiales en cualquier día, quiere que sepas que te ama y lo hace en los pequeños detalles.

★Y si te preguntas quién inició o dio el primer paso, fuiste tú, básicamente porque Geras solo te miraba de lejos y básicamente fuiste tú quien se acercó a él.

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

When you finally have had enough, he diligently works to make sure you are completely fine. After he’s assured you are not injured, he will clean you up and find a comfortable place for you to rest, cuddling up next to you, enjoying your presence in his arms.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

For himself, he has no favorite. Every part of him is kronikas flawless design. He is perfect.

As for you, he sees you as a natural masterpiece and thinks your beautiful in every way. But he tends to favor your thighs. He’s found that sucking on them until dark marks appear is a very erotic experience on his part.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Geras has no issue using his powers on you during sex, this includes orgasms. He will repeatedly rewind time during your release, allowing you to remember each time rewind. He will keep doing this until you are begging him for release. It’s basically mental overstimulation.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

He’s closed off most of his senses from the world, but since he’s started having sex with you, he’s opened up to his more primal desires. This includes his newfound love for leaving dark marks on your inner thighs, he just finds it so... pleasing to his very being.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

You are definitely taking his virginity, he’s spent his entire life serving kronika, that has left no room for such intimate situations. But trust me, he doesn’t need experience to be good. He rewinds time, learning the ways of your body, and practices until he gets even the slightest of touches just right, before moving on. You won’t have any memory of his previous attempts, so he can play it off as him knowing what he’s doing, don’t be fooled though.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

He doesn’t have one, they all provide equal opportunities for him, so he has no preference.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

He doesn’t really talk in the moment, not unless you ask him something or he wants to ask you something. To him, sex is a task that he is fulfilling for you, his diligent work has no room for humor.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

Geras is very clean, very groomed when it comes to his body. Kronika demands that his body always be in top condition, so he’s always in perfect shape both power wise and body wise.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He’s not exactly romantic during sex, the entire time, he’s too focused on your body. He sees pleasuring you as a great act of intimacy and romance by itself, so he tends to let the romantic aspect disappear during sex. It’s all about your body and making you feel good.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

He doesn’t really get sexual pleasure from much, the few things he does find erotic involve you. If you’re not there, he won’t get any type of pleasure so he has no need to masturbate.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Does perfection count as a kink? If so, Mark Geras down as one kinky motherfucker. He will repeatedly rewind time, doing even the smallest of touches over and over agian until he gets it just right. You will have no memory of the time rewinds, so to you, it’s like having the best sex ever all in one flawless go.

Also, Geras does find himself liking to suck on your inner thighs, leaving dark marks. He doesn’t know how to explain it, it just fills him with lust to see his marks on such an intimate and attractive part of your body.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

As long as there’s a surface, Geras is down. He doesn’t care the time or place, he is ready to serve you.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

He’s only ever kronika as a close person, all he’s ever done for her is serve. So serving is the best way he expresses his affection. So his only motivation for sex is your request.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

He would not hurt you in any way, or degrade you. He is a service top, he wants to make you feel good, not harm you in any way, even if it is considered erotic.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Like the service top he is, he is only interested in giving. After thousands of time rewinds of trial and error, he knows all your sensitive parts, where to lick, what to gently brush over and what to suck. He can easily make you scream with pleasure during oral.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

His default is slow and sensual, milking out as much pleasure for you as possible. But if you want him to go at a different pace, any pace, he’ll comply.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

He’s always ready for a quickie, in fact he’s just always prepared for whenever you wished to be pleasured. Though he much prefers proper sex where he’s not on a time limit, not that times the issue, just there’s so many things he can do to you and he only has a small window of opportunity to please you.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

He’s always willing to try out new things to better serve you, as long as it’s nothing harmful.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

When it comes to rounds and stamina, it’s all on you. Geras can literally last for eternity and can have infinite amount of rounds if he wanted to. So for him, don’t worry about how long he can last, worry about how long YOU can last.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

I mean, if you count his shape shifting fist as a toy, wich is exactly how he uses it in bed, then ya, he has an entire fucking collection.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Not at all. He wants to serve you, he is at your disposal, that’s how he sees it anyway. Teasing is a big no no, unless you request it of course.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

He’s fairly quiet, only growls and grunts. As I said, he doesn’t receive much physical pleasure, he gets off more to your reactions to him rather then the actual sex.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

After dying and being revived in thousands of timelines, thousands of times in each one, he’s grown mentally numb to touch. It wasn’t until he met you that he started opening up his senses again.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

Geras is the perfect being, his skin is smooth and flawless, the shape of his body is perfect in every way. He is quite cold to the touch, like touching some sort of plastic metal. He is indeed very strange to feel up. As for the important part, all you need to know is... it’s fucking big. Like your jaw dropped when you saw it. You are concerned that kronika made him for purposes beyond being her bodyguard, did DAMN it’s huge.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

As high or as low as yours. His only interest in sex is pleasing his partner, so he doesn’t really have a personal drive.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
