🫖 Wu’s Teas: An Update 🫖

Hello, yes I’m still alive!

If you’ve been a long time follower, you’ll know that back in 2017 I started a custom tea line over on Adagio to bring Ninjago fun from the screen to your cup. The collection is called “Ninjago: A Collection From Steeper Wisdom By Brittney D” if you want to search it up. 😉

Well, I accidentally left it be for a while and…

…welp, that happened.

But no need to fret, I’m on the case!

For “Ninja Never Quit” and “Sharp Witted Sensei”, the pomegranate black tea used has been discontinued, so it’ll be replaced with a pomegranate green tea. Thankfully, it shouldn’t effect the taste too much.

For Kai and Jay’s blends, the ginger tea used has been discontinued and replaced with a double ginger blend.

For “Sweet-Toothed Troublemaker”, the sprinkle inclusion is currently out of stock. If you’re waiting for the restock, the site has an option to add you email to a notification list.

These blends should come back online over the week, so stay tuned and thank you for your patience!

Mermaid samurai (bet you didn't expect that) + doodles. Also this is my version of human Pixal.

Details of the AU under the cut:

The AU is set years ago in the era of pirates and there are sirens (I know I said mermaids but they're actually sirens). Cole, Jay, Zane and Pixal (Zane and Pixal are humans) are pirates; Kai and Nya are sirens and Lloyd is a hybrid.

First off, sirens. Sirens are predators who decieve and hunt humans using their melodic voice and appereance. Sometimes they eat the humans they've hunt down but most of the times they eat other fish. To decieve humans they can change the upper part of their bodies to look human; all sirens are intersex (each one with more masculine or feminine traits) so they can change into both male and female humans (Kai is usually a man and Nya a woman but they sometimes change). Sirens can form groups or hunt alone. Kai and Nya lost their parents when they were little and have been on their own since then, barely having any contact with other sirens. Most sirens have blue to green characteristics but sometimes there are ones with other colors like Kai; that's usually a disadvantage since it atracts other predators.

Kai doesn't like humans at all and usually fights other sea creatures (like sharks). He doesn't like deep waters either.

On the other hand, Nya is interested in humans, mostly their inventions and is really curious. Unlike Kai, she does like really deep waters. They're both very protective to each other and Lloyd.

Then, Zane and Pixal had an arranged wedding they didn't like (Gay and lesbian solidarity) so they decided to run away and join the pirates, the ones of the Destiny's bounty.

Cole is a member of the pirates and became one to find a treasure and get money for his village. He often feels bad because he couldn't afford his mother's medicine and he blames himself for her death.

Jay has been a pirate for the longest time. At first he just wanted the adventure but then he kind of regreted his decision (until he bonds with everyone). He's really skilled.

The captain of the Bounty is... an asshole so... mutiny(?) , eventually Cole will be the captain (because he is a good leader) and Jay the second in command.

As for Lloyd, he is a hybrid: Misako is human and Garmadon a siren. Wu and Garmadon are considered mythical creatures so Lloyd is basically unique. He lives in a small house next to the sea after Misako passed away. When he was a kid he had an encounter with Kai and Nya and, after a while, they became friends. Now Kai and Nya have adopted him as their little brother and go visit often. Lloyd treats their wounds as well as other sea creatures, he's a healer (vet?). Eventually he'll go with the Bounty's crew.

As for ships obviously plasma and samurai but also glacier.

Feel free to ask any questions about the AU and send ideas for drawings (though I can't promise to answer/draw everything).

I've been seeing the drama about how the ninjago fandom thinks that Wu is abusive for raising "child soldiers" and all. But to me, personally, I've always seen it as, like, the equivalent of my 9yo brother going to kickboxing class? Wu didn't shove elemental powers onto them immediatley, he just trained them in general martial arts and probably lots of mental training as well. It wasn't until they were in their teens, probably about 15-16, when he actually revealed about their elemental powers and their fate to fight Garmadon/the green ninja. Some people may look at this as child soldiers, but keep in mind that in Nazi Germany/The Netherlands kids THAT AGE were fighting and killing Nazi soldiers. In the end, it was their choice to stay and fight, just like with the ninja. Besides, Wu was--for the most part--there right beside them until they started to get older. This is talked about in Season 13!

He cares about them like a father would. He knew most of their parents really well and was probably a designated godfather for all of them! He would only do what he thought was best for them, and would not force them into anything. If they wanted to leave, they could leave.

I feel like what they were meant to do was something that they needed to be trained for since they were kids anyways. As many people talked about, elemental powers are apart of them, not just weapon. He probably had to train each ninja differently so that the adjustments to their powers would not hurt them. Without as much training, we don't know what the powers would have done to them, or if they would have been able to reach their true potential.

Is Wu a perfect person? No. But I think he loves his kids like a father and would do absolutely anything for them. They trust him. So I trust him. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk

You can fully acknowledge a characters wrongs while still liking them. Not sure why this is a difficult concept to understand

Anyway Misako definitely gets over hated and people can’t enjoy her without others coming in and listing off 100 reasons why she is the scum of the earth

At the end of the day, Misako and Garmadon both abandoned their child. But you don’t see people going under a garmadon related post to hate on him for it now do you? It’s a double standard

And the excuse for Garmadon often being him “having no choice” is kinda sorry. Ultimately Garmadon chose to make the weapons and work with the Overlord. and that had a deep affect on their son. He had inner demons he failed to fight off (s1-2) and ultimately his son suffered for it

(Non-fanart) I just realised I never uploaded this bunch of refs anywhere after I finished this compilation of canon(?) costumes that the main Ninjago cast has used up till season 13 somewhere in the first quarter of the year. (I can't remember from exactly where all these images were taken from but most of them were from the ninjago fandom wiki as well as my own screenshots from the show that were uploaded onto youtube.)

I guess this is my present to the ninjago community? Merry Christmas!

Kai, crying: Dear Nya, by the time you are reading this I will be dead.

Kai: This is an awful thing to say but it is true. I know my fate- and I cannot change it. My action up to now has brought me to this terrible end. I love you, and I do not blame you if you marry Jay. He's ugly but he makes you happy.

Kai: Jay, you can have whatever games I have. Cole, you can have my mom's cookbook with all those pancake recipes you love.

Kai: Lloyd- you can have whatever Star Farer comics I got-

Lloyd walks in.

Lloyd: Kai, what are you doing?

Kai, still sobbing: I buRnED ZanE'S ApROnnnnn

Lloyd:

Lloyd: You want me to finalize that letter or-

Zane storms in, holding a burnt, pink apron.

Zane: KAIBA FLICKER SMITH, WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS-!?

Kai shoves the letter in Lloyd's hand.

Kai: Tell everyone I love them.
