Upon reading a fanfic about Shang having dinner at the Fa Home, I recalled something that slightly disturbs me....
What's up with the helmet??!
Is it magical or what?
Does it have some sort of magnet dragging it back to Mulan?
What the heck?
And why in the world do I think this?
Well, all through the song of A Girl Worth Fighting for Mulan wears the helmet, and she's still wearing it during the burned out village scene....until Mushu gives away their position and Mulan falls on the snow, she runs and leaves the helmet aside.
She fires the cannon that started the avalance completely...helmetless
Then her true identity is discovered while she is still helmetless, and then she is left behind and somehow Mushu finds the helmet and uses it as a mirror...
Amid the avalanche many Hun bodies were burried, but the helmet despite t's size was not. And soon after Mulan's identity was discovered it found its way back to its illegitimate owner ('cause let's face it, it was actually Fa Zhou's)
And I swear I'm gonna check to see if the helmet was inside the tent when Shang finds out Ping is a girl....There is none.
But suddenly out of the blur the helmet appears right next to Mulan when she is sitting on the snow, right after Cri-kee lights a tiny fire.
After that, Mulan sees that there are still some Huns alive, hops on Khan's back to inform her commanding officer...helmetless!!
And there's no helmet on Khan's back either.
So I dunno I've tried to come up with some explanations on how Shang could possibly retrieve that helmet and give it back to Mulan...
so far...
a) the Tung Shao Pass was on the way to Mulan's home and he found the helmet there, and realized it belonged to Mulan
b) the helmet rolled its way to the Imperial City and then the Palace.
c) Khan has a secret compartment for the helmet, and somehow amid all the Mulan vs. Shan Yu fight in the Imperial Palace, accidentally dropped it.
BTW, a parody of the helmet coming soon at fanifiction.net just cause I feel like it.
