please tell me about the headcannons for the First Ninja 🙏
!!! ;D Since you asked so nicely! ;3 uuuuhhhhhh lets see...some of my personal headcanons for First are:
He is baby of Norisu Clan, aka the Youngest child.
He barely remembers his parents, for they died when he was young (courtesy to Sorcerer and thus one of the many reasons Norisu Clan sought to defeat him), so he was mostly raised by his Oldest Siblings.
When he was younger (toddler-ish age), he was dotted upon by his older siblings, so he was kind of a brat, since he was used to being center of attention and being taken care of (tho he grew out of it pretty fast).
Tumblr media
When he was younger (more teenager years) his hair used to be longer and he wore it in topknot (think Samurai Jack style).
And all of his Siblings were gone, he cut his hair off to honor their sacrifice and make a promise to finally defeat the Sorcerer (think sorta that Zuko scene from ATLA lol).
So, when we see First in Flashback of Ultimate Lesson, with his tiny ponytail, its (canonically i think?) several years after inprisonment of Sorcerer, that little tuft is what managed to grow back. (cause i think its interesting that we never see First out of the Ninja Suit in 13th Century Ninja episode)
Tumblr media
Speaking of 13th Century Ninja episode(I both love and hate that episode so much man): I headcanon that most of First's behaviour can be explained by stress and despair he started to feel after loosing his siblings (also probably mild sleep deprivation from nightmares and ptsd). Which was why he seemingly 'gave up' so easily (like ??? ugh).
The other contributing factor is First being confronted by unrelenting dumb optimism/hope of Randy and suddenly strongly reminded First of himself, when he was younger and still believed his clan could defeat the Sorcerer and how he was that same ray of hope for his older siblings who were becoming weary from the battles. But he is older now, and no optimism or hope helped to save his siblings from the ultimate sacrifice, so he understands that darkness his family tried to protect him from much better now.
So basically I like to think younger First was a lot like Randy in many ways, especially in that assurance/confidence that any mistake can be fixed.
Tumblr media
First is a great sea farer! Canonically, Norisu clan followed Sorcerer across the sea (according to Secrets of the 9 i think?), so they would have spent months/if not years at sea. And if First was young, it would have left a great impression on him, that expierence and time on the open waters.
That man can not cook to save his life, and he lost most of his appetite after his family's sacrifice, that's why he is rather scrawny.
First is not the best Ninja of Norisu Clan. He grew up in the protective shadow of his more talented and powerful Older Siblings, who in turn taught him everything they knew. So he might not be the most powerful of his Norisu Siblings, but he is the most rounded in his abilities and the most balanced one. ;)
hmmm i think im done for now ;D ask me later for more, maybe i'll have some more concrete ideas ;)

Something that I was kind of thinking about was that I was sort of wondering what era of Japan was the Sorcerer sealed away in RC9GN.
Tumblr media
Randy: For 800 years Norrisville High has been protected by a Ninja
RC9GN takes place in 2013 as according to the episode 'Randy Cunningham: 13th Century Ninja', the Sorcerer was sealed away in 1213 making 2013, 800 years after the Sorcerer was sealed away meaning that the Sorcerer was possibly sealed away during the Kamakura period.

| [#1] The pains of being a Ninja and a dad |
“Sometimes a monster just won’t die — It takes me on a wild goose chase around the whole city. And once it finally falls, then I have a brief moment to realize that the sun is already setting, and I still have work to do at home. Then I end up breaking my own doors (just a ninja habit), scaring my kids, and giving Plop Plop a heart attack (if he so happens to look after them that day). A Ninja must have at least one day for himself… let me write that down”

Reflecting on Ghost of Tsushima
Tumblr media
I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima...I started it for Ninja November and then was playing offline just doing side quests when I wasn't feeling well and now I'm in approximately 60 hours in and in Act 3.
I think Sucker Punch has made something really special. At first I was annoyed with being pulled into duels to fight with my samurai skills after I've done so many missions as stealthily as possible but it makes sense. It is a mechanical and physical response I have to the situation Jin Sakai is in.
Tumblr media
And perhaps I have just played my quests/missions in such a way that it reinforces these feelings. But the writing is dynamic and somber and somehow really relatable. And no I'm not a 13th century samurai. But see Jin wrestle with the expectations of his upbringing, family, and community, while trying to do what he thinks is right...or the way he can protect and save his home...is...devastating.
You see Jin really grapple with being referred to as a demon or ghost...he's just a samurai trying to save his home...and over time you see the impact from the community and hope he brings as the ghost...a folk hero who's pushing back the mongols and bringing hope to Tsushima...
I am not done with the game yet. But I'm also very interested to see where the secondary cast ends their quests of revenge and retribution and if they can ever find peace in a place that no longer looks like their home.
Tumblr media
And perhaps I'm just a silly little guy. In between me playing Tear of the Kingdom, a handful of retro titles, and always revisiting Shovel Knight and Cyber Shadow...this game has just left in some sort of way. It is like a book I can't put down. Its somewhat predictable and has also taken me off guard. My last play session has left me distraught with the events that occurred and I know I'm creeping up on the end and I'm torn with doing all the side missions or mainlining the story to get to the conclusion. But perhaps that is another sign of well crafted writing. Me, the player is also hurt and upset and want a resolution...
I did not expect to have such big feels. I'll report back once I've completed the game. But I do know right now that this game is very special and while it isn't a Tenchu game...it does scratch that itch with a variety of items, story, and character.

Completely self indulgent post but here's one of the post-canon scenarios I have in my head for G Gundam.
Maybe skip this post if you don't like dark themes. Not all of what I've outlined is dark (most of it isn't), but I do cross the line past what appears in the show in regards to DG cells and abduction.
The shuffles all get roped into restoration projects on Earth between the 13th and 14th gundam fights, partially to have something to do alongside their training, partially out of inspiration by the common points of the Kasshus' and Master Asia's goals, and partially because netting their countries some decent publicity is likely to earn them favors during the Gundam Fight's off-years.
Sai is contacted by Kyral about an effort to clear out the infamous buildup of trash and cadavers on Everest; he wants Sai to leverage Neo China's help as something of a reparation kind of deal and Sai goes sure why not.
Sai recruits Argo because Bolt Gundam is built to withstand the cold, and he thinks Argo and Nastasha could help reverse engineer that quality to enable the use of their Gundams as both heavy work equipment and protection from the harsh environmental conditions that normally prevent this kind of operation.
George gets involved because someone he knows has a distant relative who died on the mountain a century ago, and they wanted him to check in with the forensics team on the project. This detail is important because eventually it becomes clear that there is a mystery to solve (that I myself haven't figured out all the details of yet but broadly know the setup and conclusion); DG-infected people are disappearing and not being investigated due to stigma. Our heroes are naturally going to be pissed about this, and will need an "in" with the field if they want to do anything about it.
First massively self-indulgent element: The forensics/body identification team inexplicably includes the real-world author Kathy Reichs, who somehow exists in this universe, and there's a little side bit about her having written a Bones book right before the 12th fight that featured a cooked cadaver found inside a gundam after entry into the Earth's atmosphere. There are a lot of weird coincidences in the book that parallel the DG incident, which creeps everyone out, but the similarities are merely born of the writer threading the needle of being believable and interesting in a way that became very true to life.
What does become relevant is when the Shuffles eventually meet up, she's able to explain the implications of a bunch of weird shit the fighters discovered (also Marie Louise read her book, and one of the in-universe liberties Reichs took writing about the gundams' black boxes that she explains in the afterword leads to ML realizing something important; that Neo Germany does not have its gundam's remains.)
While the Everest project is happening, Domon, Chibodee, and Allenby all want to continue their training somewhere on Earth, and receive a proposal from (an OC of mine who is) a historic preservationist (and an acquaintance of Allenby's): she has acquired the grounds of an abandoned castle in Europe* after submitting a plan to restore it, and needs to hire people to help with the labor.
*the castle is probably somewhere in Germany because I also want this pitch to have drama over Schwarz (pre-13th fight), Schwarz (Kyoji), and Schwarz (the next guy who was supposed to inherit the mask when the older ninja retired). Also Germany is fucking pretty.
In exchange for the help of the three gundam fighters, they and Rain get paid, plus room and board anywhere on the grounds, plus full access to the grounds and miles of sparsely-inhabited countryside for training purposes, and the privacy and ability to practice with their gundams that comes with being in the middle of fucking nowhere. Rain sets herself up to work a clinic in the next town over as well as practicing pro re nata wilderness medicine (I'm convinced every medic supporting the gundam fight would need to be able to do this.)
The group involved in the Castle project sticks around for a time, makes some good progress, and engage in occasional Shenanigans that come up when you put a bunch of weirdos in a Situation.
They aren't in town a lot save for Rain, but when they are they eventually start to pick up on gossip and news about the Mysterious Disappearances correlated with DG cell infection (as well as details that turn out to be important later). Eventually Rain brings this to Domon and Chibodees' attention and they decide that, yeah, this is tied to the DG, this is their problem, they should convene with the rest of the Shuffle Alliance about it.
Also of course Schwarz is involved because I'm the one writing this; the culprits' DG-tissue harvesting operation relies on having him captured and helpless, using cells from his body to "update" other victims' DG infections to a less aggressive strain. One thing I haven't decided is whether I want a reinstantiated Wong to head this shit, or make up my own morally bankrupt opportunistic asshole looking to twist the DG to their own benefits. I also need to decide where on the planet the center of all this insanity is, and it needs to be a place that isn't going to have any unfortunate implications (because that's a genuine risk with dark story elements)
... That's about as much as I have that is thought-out enough for me to explain. I return to thinking about this scenario a lot because it puts most of the characters way out of their element (and has a bunch of details that appeal to me specifically), and it kind of evolved into an incomplete plot outline that I don't currently have any plans to flesh out.
I think it's an interesting enough direction to go, because it follows through with a lot of the themes present in G, but takes advantage of the genre shift to avoid DBZ-crazy power scaling and adjusts the conflict more to a matter of where the main characters' prowess is most effective (Both in and out of the gundams. I'm assuming there are a ton of guys similar to Michelo's gang that just need fighting interspersed with everything else I described. In fact, kicking Some Group of Douchebags out of their protection racket is probably how team Castle even gets ahold of evidence related to missing persons.)

I think I cannot hold myself back anymore, so I will say it.
The fact that Sasuke and Naruto decide to marry two stereotypical, canonical, a-characterized girls is not a sign of a necessarily brotherly (merely platonic) bond.
In the medieval Japanese culture, in fact, true love often could be found only between two man (‘cause they are similar creatures and they can understand each other better than man/women couples - yeah, I know, how sexist, but we are talking about the 13th century sooo). It is possible to recognise the same idea in the antique Greece (even if usually the relationship is between teacher and his student - but the concept is, more or less, the same - you can see Platon about it). Marriage is a tool to grant reproduction and connection (Sasuke’s idea about “I want to repopulate the clan”, -yeah, alone and far away from home for 12 fucking years (r’u okay, dude?) Naruto dream of becoming hokage - never at home after:
-Hashirama that went for a walk everyday with his bff
-his brother who spent more time masturbating on proibite jutsu than actually ruling
-the third that, like the first, went for a walk but with Naruto instead
-the fourth: a loveable father and husband that had dinner at home with her wife and cooked as well
-tsunade: alcoholic, gambler, one of the sannins AND medic nin
-kakashi… well, you all know about his addiction for porn
-NARUTO: orphan, love-starved for life, can’t find the force to stay at home, shitty dad ecc ecc in time of peace.
Buuut oookkkkaaaayy?!).
Many aspects of Kishi’s plot and characters are inspired by historical Samurai’ customs and figures (also, the ninja world’ structure described by Kishi is more similiar to Samurai’ than that’s of true ninjas - whose usually are mercenaries and more similiar to bandits than heroes).
ALSO, who knows something, even if only the basics, about literature, can easily read in the entire story the most important iconographic topoi of romance and LOVE.
I will summarize some of them because there are many:
-Romeo and Juliet: “I’m the only one who can bear the full brunt of your hate! It’s my job, no one else’s! I’ll bear the burden of your hatred… And we’ll die together!”. Then, summarising the rest: “in the afterlife I will not be the vessil anymore; you will not be an uchiha ecc ecc”= Capuleti and Montecchi: Juliet and Romeo tried to bear the hatred that their families had for each other; finally only death permits them to love and realise their dream to stay in each other arms.
-in their afterlife (pre-mortem experience) Sasuke and Naruto are found together (no itachi, no parents - only the two of them)
-Achille and Patroclo (I think I won’t speak about that because I could spend VOLUMES)
-the love triangle
-star-watching while whispering the name of smone we love (or desire)
Anyway I have no watched Boruto and I don’t intend to: everything after the second Valley of End is no more than “found raising” (without charity) and politically correct (that of 15 years ago - especially in Eastern Countries). Same thing about The Last and these other craps: BULLSHIT: Naruto, suddenly, DON’T understand love anymore… came on, are u serious man?
PS when I think about chakras of two siblings I cannot not think about soulmates:
- chakra, like soul, have NO gender (and we all know that Naruto and Sasuke are not brother)
-if you insist about they being siblings thanks Indra’ and Asura’ chakras I have to remind you that VERY OFTEN in EVERY MYTHOLOGIES of the world (yeah, in Japan as well) between deities there is no incest concept and ooops Indra and Asura WERE SEMI-DEITIES, so..
I would thank my current occupation as phd student in History and Religion: that has helped a lot to understand the implicit tune of the show/manga
PSS the shit about “clingy Sakura yelp cause sasuke taps her forehead” is, precisely, bullshit: Itachi (sasuke’s real brother) did the same thing to keep away sasuke. When he says “I will always love you” he doesn’t do that, no SIR; also, when sasuke asks Naruto what he really means by “friend”, Naruto, at the very end says “I DON’T FUNCKIN KNOW, but when you hurt I hurt”. He is the one that really understands Sasuke NOT SAKURA
Also, Naruto frees Kurama (8 tails) after Hinata’s (fake) death, okay but, seriously? The seal is merely there at this point, everyone is dead, she tried to help him but cannot do it because is not a real ninja and he got LIVID. I understand that.. than he forget all that she had said
When the kages asks for sasuke elimination, Naruto is not angry, Naruto is broken and has a real panic attack, so… I think there are some difference due the circumstances.
The hints ‘bout canonical ships during the series are, really, unuseful like an ass with no hole.
So, I have to stop here. This is my deposition, your honor.
Sorry if I made mistakes but it’s late here, I’m tired and English is not my native language

I'm so happy people love my rise! Hcs, so I'd figure I'd share my hcs for rc9gn as well.
Randy-
He believes in Judaism like Howard's family, he started to study it and follow the religion because of the weinermens as well. He hasn't told his family yet because they follow a different religion and want him to follow it(the Japanese religion Shinto).
His dad's away on work trips a lot, it's why he brings up his mom so much, she's the one always around.
His mom works as a caretaker for young kids(like Marci did), she's in her own head a lot so Randy can often get away with a lot.
Randy sometimes does dumb crap to cheer someone up(can't cry if you're laughing at him).
I joke about him being blood thirsty but in all honesty I don't think he is, he'd kill out of necessity but even then he be merciful(to people, animals/beasts are free game). And even then he wouldn't like it. A "I did what I had to" kinda situation.
Mature for his age due to his parents being busy most of the time.
Nothing wrong with weinerham as a ship(I just want to make that clear) but personally, I think they'd see each other more as brothers, I think Randy associates the whole weinermen family into his own, AGAIN there is nothing wrong with shipping weinerham! What i am saying is mere opinion, please Don't use this to attack anyone!.
Has called Mort dad before, it was a great moment for Mort.
Considers Mort and First ninja as father figures, in their own right. Not that he doesn't care for his bio dad, they all help him in some parental way, Mort being the comforting force, First ninja the motivating one and his bio dad being fun loving one.
Is very proud of his Japanese culture, his dad would make him study the language, history, and mythology, which was the one type of teaching he liked.
Is Very protective and clingy when he's in love.
Gets physically violent if mad enough (see: Raiders of the lost nomicon scene with bash as that's where I got the idea) which is why he tries to restrain his emotions.
Met Theresa off screen by bumping into her a little before "so you think you can stank?".
Has nightmares about Norrisville getting destroyed, normally he can handle it but sometimes it scares him bad enough he needs Something to shake him back to reality.
Ploplop-
Has definitely got some magic skills.
Grew up with first ninja, the nine took him off the streets when they first found norrisville.
Is actually First Ninja's voice of reason when he gets angry.
Helped the "shadow warrior"nine brother with his magical techniques.
First ninja-
* these are mostly on the idea of him being in modern day
Would absolutely own a dog named something like poopsie or spots.
Leather jackets and motorcycles 💫
Is addicted to coffee, rarely sleeps, and has in fact gotten dragged across his home by ploplop demanding he respect his wish to "sleep when he's dead" lol.
He was the baby brother ™️ of the nine. He looked up to all of them.
One of his brothers created the "Shadow warrior" persona out of "necessity", he truly believed fear would give them the power to stop the sorcerer.
First ninja studied every method, fighting technique, rages etc. From his brothers, he wanted to be as good as them someday.
The dragon fist move he does in "13th century Ninja" is a move only he can do. his brothers had moves exclusive to each of them as well.
It bothers him about his anger, he wants to teach himself to calm down but it's difficult, given the situations he often finds himself in.
Gets as jealous as Randy if ploplop gets other friends, it's like a yandere but in a more platonic way.
Him and Slimovitz would be pals i think.
LOVES SHARP THINGS, WEAPONS, KNIVES, THEY MAKE HIS SQUARE HEAD GO BRRR.
Used to head butt and bite his opponents, until his eldest brother demanded he stop.
The red tie he has his hair tied back with is from his second eldest brother, who was almost like a mother to him.
Booray-
Born in the swamp, parents died while he was really young.
Grigri/swamp spirit is either a witch he knew or his bio mom, either way she dead now 🤷‍♀️.
The creep/Bruce Mcheese-
Slob lifestyle 💫
Is the strongest thing in rc9gn's universe yet doesn't raise a finger at threats because 💖trauma💖.
Isn't from Norrisville, wasn't even born there(my man gotta be from a realm)
Has a mythical gf but they argue a lot.
Is closest to first ninja since they've spent the most time together.
Pacifist in present day, menace in the past.
Theresa-
Wants to become an actress
Needs reassurance a lot
Cries regardless of emotion
Isn't fond of Howard but is more then willing to change that for Randy's sake.
Is being raised by her step mother(she's big, Scottish, and very protective).
Has a parrot(patty) along with the hamster(sammy).
Norrisville-
Everyone lives scarily longer then normal, side effect of the stankings. it's why no one bats an eye at immortals like Ward Smith or Creep.
Tourists often visit to try and live longer as well, or get some footage of a monster attack.
Those "top 5 unsolved mysteries" videos are flooded on Shoobtube, almost all of them talk about norrisville. Norrisvilians watch them to laugh at since there always because of a stanking or robot.
People outside of norrisville are mixed about The ninja, some are grateful he saves at least one town, others wish he would extend his heroism.

Meet the members of the Yozakura family.
As you may already know, if you've read the post about Yumi.
The family has been known since the Edo era as a family of renowned assassins and ninjas, over the centuries the family has modernized but still continues with certain traditions, and now works as spies, preventing sects from dominating the world and many other types. of crimes.
They are the most influential family in the Japanese underworld (or perhaps in the world) and are in first place in the best spy family category among other categories.
The family is currently in its 10th generation and consists of 7 members.
Some of the main characteristics of the family would be their dark hair and black eyes, rumor has it that looking into a Yozakura's eyes is the same as facing death.
And another striking feature is Someinine, a unique protein found in the family's blood.
This Someinine can make normal humans become superhumans, and that is why the boss must be protected at all costs as it is she who contains the largest amount of Someinine.
About the current Yozakura family
Tumblr media
Yozakura Ren (the firstborn): This short and beautiful Japanese name originates from the term ren (蓮), which means “lotus”, referring to the flower of Buddhism. Because of this, it symbolizes purity, perfection, wisdom and rebirth. (The name doesn't match his personality)
Ren is someone with a cruel and manipulative personality, hiding all his bloodlust behind a smile.
He tries to protect his siblings, especially Yumi, by any means possible, even if he sometimes goes overboard.

When necessary, she is the judge, who will punish and discipline those who are in Yozakura territory.
There is a phrase that much of the underworld knows and fears.
You are in Yozakura territory, by our laws and orders you will be judged, and by our power you will be punished or pardoned.

Yozakura Yumi
This feminine name has a delicate and sweet sound, originating from the combination of the elements yu (優), which is "superiority", "kindness" or yu (裕), which means "abundance" with mi (美), which means “beauty”.
Yumi is calm, kind, and a little shy, but when she makes friends with someone she becomes more outgoing, a big fan of Disney, likes anime and manga, especially the magical girl theme, her hairstyle is inspired by Usagi Tsukino's (sailor) hairstyle. moon) and because he's a Disney fan his hair looks like Minnie's ears.
But despite being kind, Yumi knows how to be cruel, and show that she has no mercy to get rid of her enemies, as Marina often says, Yumi is a snake pretending to be a scared mouse.
She is 17 years old, is a Gemini and the youngest of the triplets celebrates her birthday on May 21st.
Her codename would be Kogane no hebi (黄金の蛇 / meaning golden serpent)
Likes: anime, manga, books, sweets, plushies, shopping, cute animals, her siblings, her pet snake Jade and Goliath the family dog, Disney movies, Disney merchandise, hyperfocus on Greek mythology, myths and legends much of the world.
Dislikes: not being free, all the obligations she has for being the current leader, being left trapped inside the house, Ren not letting her go out, being without her brothers, being alone, spiders,
Yumi does not have Nōryoku, and is therefore the current head of the family.
To choose the new head, the family follows two rules:
1st the boss must be a woman
2nd, the boss must be the most “normal” among the brothers, since it is this child who will continue the Yozakura lineage.
Although she doesn't have Nōryoku, as soon as she arrived in Twisted Wonderland, she ended up gaining a kind of gift, Yumi could enter other people's memories, and see their lives as if it were some kind of movie.
Curiosity about the Yozakura
Everyone needs to have taken a theater course for at least 1 year, so that it is easier to hide family secrets and deceive other people
They need to know at least 5 languages, including English and Latin
You must know at least 3 different types of martial arts
They need to know how to use at least two different types of weapons
From the age of seven, they need to drink small amounts of poison daily to become immune.
It is mandatory to know how to manufacture poison and the antidote
Everyone, regardless of gender, should know how to use makeup, for example, to fake injuries, or pretend to be someone else.
They take special classes to be able to use their voice to impersonate other people
All employees must be searched to prevent possible traitors
If a traitor has a family, but they did not participate in the crime, the family will be spared, but will have to leave the residence
All employees undergo intense training, before someone becomes a personal servant of a Yozakura, they must receive special training.
Nōryoku begin to appear from the age of 8.
Normally, Nōryoku appear in a shape to match the personality of the bearer.
It is impossible to have two users of the same type of Nōryoku in the same generation
Bonus
Tumblr media
Name unknown, but Yumi calls her hebihime (snake princess)
A mysterious demon, who was brought in from a ritual carried out by a macabre cult, serves as Yumi's master and servant.
She uses Yumi as a vessel until she finds her real body, in return, protects her and prevents her from dying.
Literally living in Yumi's subconscious since she was ten years old, Yumi always thought that Hebi, whether it was just her intrusive thoughts, or a part of her consciousness, was only when she arrived in Twisted Wonderland that she began to see and hear the snake.
Hebi stays hidden in the shadows or in the mirrors, always keeping an eye on everything. In addition to Yumi, she also tends to watch boys who have had an overblot, the reason for this is still unknown to Yumi.
In the same way she cares for and protects Yumi, she did the same thing with Kalim, thanks to the influence of the Al-Asim Hebi family she would use Kalim to find her body, in return she takes care of him in the same way she takes care of Yumi .
Sometimes other people can see her, but quickly, making others believe they are crazy, sometimes she takes control of Yumi's body to plant chaos, one of the ways to know when she is about to take control, and You can hear the sound of a snake, the louder it is, the angrier Yuki is, and consequently the easier it will be for Hebi to take control.
I hope you liked it, the next post will be the master list of the fanfic a flower stained with blood, with the first part of the prologue.

“You’re not the sorcerer!”
Tumblr media
Look at that, a (screenshot) redraw, let’s goooo! 13th century ninja once againnn.
It was fun, tho the background was kinda hard to do. I just wanted to draw First ninja with his cloak or whatever-
I was planning on showing my progress as well since ibis paint can let you make like a movie/speed paint video of your drawing but it doesn’t seem to work, like everything I tried to like put it here it kept saying something was wrong. Oh well, that’s too bad.
Here’s the original screenshot (that I just found on Google)
Tumblr media
(Ignore first ninjas eyes being half lidded here, it’s because he blinked obviously, it’s just paused at this moment I guess-)
But yeah, this was fun to do.

Addendum to “Star Trek/NCIS: the crew manifest”
Addendum to Fandoms in Trek AUs: NCIS. Annotations that had to be removed from the main post since it already was so long.
About the positions and assignments To assign position I tried to stay as closer to their roles in the tv show as I could. Unless a more specific one was available for the specific character, NCIS / FBI agents were made part of security, doctors and related to medical and so on. If not listed below, the choice was self-explanatory and was redundant. - Leon Off all the three directors NCIS has during the first 13th Seasons, Leon is the one who sat on the chair the longer and, consequently, the one who deserved the "boss" role more. He was also the one who couldn't be assigned any other role if assigned to the crew because of this reason. - DiNozzo He's been Gibbs's second since... well, ever, so the role of First Officer was mandatory. Besides, Gibbs considers him his second: there was no way I could make anyone else Gibbs's first officer. You cannot give communications to someone else if Tony is in the mix: the guy is the master of talking. So, although he speaks only two languages (versus Ziva, for example), he cannot be anything else than the Communicator Officer. I had been tempted to remove this role, to give it to Nikki, but then... well, Memory Alpha states that in the 23rd century first officers "served as a department head first and the executive officer second": I can't imagine Tony spending his on-duty hours standing like an idiot because there's no first officer's station on a Constitution. - Kate Todd Given that, previously her NCIS job, she was assigned to the security of the Air Force One and the US President himself, who's better than her to be a Security Chief? Also, it was unclear which role in the hierarchy of the team she had - as far as I understood, she and Tony were at the same level, since there was no mention of "seniority" nor Gibbs treated her or Tony as one superior to the other - so I gave her the role of third officer to partially preserve that. - Abby Abby could fill many shoes. She's NCIS weapons expert, but her main specialty is science, so Chief Science Officer she is. - Ziva Ziva is... Ziva. She fits everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Languages, weapons, combat: everything a red shirt could do, she can do - and better than others. Well, besides driving, at least. Back in 2016 she was in the hold because I didn't know which role give her until I found it fitting to be the second to Kate (whom she replaced in the series). But then I had the idea of revamp the whole edit and she initially ninja-kicked Tony out of his Chief Communication Officer chair on the bridge. But then eventually was moved to helm: she's a woman of action, I couldn't see her sitting at a station picking up frequencies all day, she would probably catch an allergy or die of boredom. Appreciate the decency I had to put her at the nav and not the helm station, leaving that to Borin. Kidding. I couldn't resist it actually. - Jenny Shepard Poor Jenny. I wanted her as Admiral, but then where I could place Vance? With the Liaison Officer (aka, the boss) role already filled, I didn't know where to place her. In the old edit she was given the helmsman (quoting «guides everyone and this is the best I could find for her»), but now I made her the second to Morrow, and second in charge of the functioning of the ship which is likely the closest to a NCIS Director you could get, when the agency takes the form of a starship. Also, second officer to partially give her back some authority (I couldn't make her First Officer in place of Tony, clearly). To at least reflect that she's been in a position of power, I elected her as first helm. - Ellie Bishop We've been shown that she's best at tactical plans, logic and everything between and I wanted her on the bridge. I thought that the standing, additional tactical officer position - that standing station manned by a black actor in red shirt seen in the movies (see Froman) - was fitting. - Fornell What an FBI guy could do, on a starship? Security officer. Sure, but what if you already have a better choice for a Security Chief and their Deputy? Initially I assigned him the armory, but when I revisited the edit came Zoe, so... - Delilah She's "just" an analyst but, in a show where most of the characters carry a gun and go on the field catching criminals, an analyst is as closer to a "computer geek" as they can go. However, the role of mainframe conduit was left open and I didn't really want to include yet another character, so Deliah, you've got promoted on the bridge! - James Palmer and Gerald Since he's a Medical Assistant to Ducky, I decided to make Palmer the Head Nurse instead of Doctor. Gerald, as he had less time to professionally grow, is a step lower as Nurse. - Morrow As he's the first NCIS director we're shown (and likely the one who reformed it from NIS), I thought he had to be assigned the closer role to the ship itself. - Borin Notes from the old edit: «Borin's a woman of action, a less grumpy Gibbs. Being the head of the Coast Guard Investigative Service and specialist about ships, I thought fitting for her to be the Chief Engineer.» I still maintain that it was a perfect assignment, but now that she's been replaced by Morrow I couldn't demote her to engineer. Now all the team leaders are either helm or nav (see below). - Hollis She's army and unity commander: she deserved to be the head department, but I couldn't demote Kate. Sorry Hollis! Still, I made sure to reflect that Kate is the brain, and she doesn't get much on the field - that's Hollis's job. - Cassidy and EJ As team leaders, I put them at the helm/nav stations. - Zoe As agent for the "Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF)", she was the only one to replace my initial idea for the Weapons specialist on the crew, Fornell. - Doctor Ryan We don't need PsyOps on a Starfleet Ship, Samantha! - Nikki She's fluent in languages and she monitors communications. Duh. - Cranston + Wolf She basically begged for this position - or this position for her. Same for Dr. Wolf. - Grady I gave her the transporter chief position because of her character's introduction as polygraph specialist. - Doctor Taft Despite him being a "field doctor", which initially made me include him as senior doctor (Doctor M'Benga's position), I picked doctor Jordan so he was downgraded. - Dorney He's a probatory agent and he complains when he gets the evidence locker. I created the position for him when I replaced him as Yeoman. - Carol Well, we know Abby hates it when there's people in her lab. But she accepted Carol when time saw them working together and I wanted to include Carol, so... - Lee It's the closer "starship position" I could find to an agent canon-assigned to the legal department. - Jordan I decided to make her Ducky's second because she's a medical examiner like him and, when he was hurt, Ducky suggested to ask her to temporary replace him on a case (we don't see the scene, it's just Ducky saying it). - Stan I know he deserves more than "Captain's yeoman" but... was a very late, late addition to the crew, so before he didn't even made an appearance? Also, he laments that he was like an errandboy during his times with Gibbs. And Gibbs would love to have a yeoman as Stan. - Hart Her was the character I regretted more to not add but I really had no idea how to fit her on a starship. Then the final version of the revisited edit was ready, and I was missing a character. Of all the minor characters left out, she was the most blaring. But you don't need an attorney (or even a JAG officer) on a starship. Considering she spends most of her presence on the show reminding Gibbs of rules, I guessed she could be some kind of assistant to keep the very undiplomat Gibbs on check. About the ranks While assigning ranks I tried to maintain some kind of reference to the "power hierarchy" of the tv show. For this reason, Jenny Shepard and Fornell are the only ones given a commander rank besides Di Nozzo (who gets the rank only because of his First Officer position). Morrow manages a captain because there's a canon precedent of a captain holding the chief engineer position (Scotty in Search for Spock), but I tried to compensate for Jenny by giving her the second officer role. Lieutenant commander is for characters who lead a team/squad leader (Borin, Barrett, Cassidy) or other characters who weren't part of NCIS who held a high rank within their jobs (Doctor Ryan, Dr. Taft); Kate was given it for the position she was assigned to (chief security) but also because, during her time at NCIS, she was equal to Tony but I didn't/could give her a commander, while Ducky gets it despite not being a federal agent because... well, it's Ducky and he's also the CMO. Mann, as Army Lieutenant Colonel, should be a commander (which is the Navy equivalent), but I decided that having her with the same rank of Jenny and higher than her direct superior Kate would make little sense. Bishop, as the last acquisition of the squad, is a lieutenant junior grade, while Dorneget is a step lower as ensign. Jeanne, Doctor Cranston, Wolf and Hampton, while not related to NCIS, are respectively an ensign and lieutenants because I felt that, as doctors, they would be better fitting as commissioned officers (Jeanne is a rank lower because at the start her seniority is unclear and she's preparing to give an exam); Carol, on the other side, is an external and I gave her a chief petty officer to reflect that. I initially wanted to make Palmer, who isn't a federal agent, a non-commissioned officer, but I wasn't sure a CPO could be a head nurse so I made him ensign, but then changed my mind again, and he's now Master CPO - let's say he got promoted after a probationary time under Doctor Mallard. Gerald, his predecessor, is still stuck to chief petty officer. Rest were given the "average" lieutenant to reflect their Agent status. Hart is not part of Starfleet so she doesn't have any rank.

What are your thought on First Ninja when he was introduced or just made a major role in the finale of the first season of “Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja?”
Honestly, I wasn't the greatest fan of a very random time travel episode at first. But when it came to First Ninja himself - I was so excited! Because look!!! Cool Ninja Prime who held the mask first!!! What secrets and lore we will glimpse from him?! And his entrance was so epic, not to mention his design was just fun to see.
And then I got a little disappointed because they did him so dirty in the rest of the episode. ;( He literally gave up and was ready to walk away because his plan failed and Sorcerer got an upper hand, like HUH?????! And this man supposedly was part of the Clan that was chasing Sorcerer for YEARS across CONTINENTS and lost ALL OF HIS SIBLINGS in the process. Like?? What.
I know all of it was done so Randy could be the cool one in the episode, but like?? Come on! If creators spent less time on jokes about Plop Plop's name (and just bathroom jokes in general), we could have gotten an actual super epic fight between First Ninja and Sorcerer, instead of Randy just doing all the battle and First Ninja literally just punching Sorcerer once and dunking him in a hole.
And I know, I know it was done in the same vein as the whole show, and I usually like RC9GN humour in general, but even the silliest of cartoons can sometimes make the most epic and serious episodes, especially finales, and I wished if anything it was that one. They still could have done the same haha funnies, but also like?? it could have been so much better.
So in conclusion, if I ever wanted to rewrite an episode, it would be the 13th Century Ninja, tbh.

Sneaky ninja tactics to employ
Tumblr media
#SNEAKY NINJA TACTICS TO EMPLOY SERIES#
They were widely feared at the time and certainly seemed to live up to their name.Īncient assassins known as Thuggees worked as a team. The Thuggees have been called the world’s first Mafia and it is believed they were responsible for around 2000,000 deaths. Rather than working alone as many ancient assassins did, Thuggees attacked as a group with each member of the gang playing a different role such as look-out. A cult of ancient assassins called the Thuggees (which is Sanskrit for ‘concealment’) were a gang of assassins operating in India between the 13th and 19th Centuries. ( Frédéric Prochasson / Adobe) 3.They Could be ThugsĪncient assassins could be thugs - it’s actually where the word ‘thug’ originates. Ninja women call the kunoichi were particularly formidable ancient assassins. After they had gained access to their target, they dispatched them just as ruthlessly as their male counterparts and had no qualms utilizing the famed throwing stars and katanas we associate with ninjas today. The kunoichi liked to take advantage of the fact people generally regarded women as harmless housewives, and they were able to get far closer to their targets to either gather information or kill them because the men did not anticipate this. However, in the world of assassins, women should not be forgotten, and a special order of ninjas called kunoichi were particularly formidable assassins. Warfare has traditionally been left to men and as a result most great warriors and generals have been men. Espionage was something that other groups would often refuse to do, for example samurais felt that espionage was beneath them which meant people would hire ninjas instead. Their ability to stay hidden and undetected also made them perfect candidates to conduct espionage and assassins were sometimes hired with the sole intention of spying on and not killing or harming a target. It is often considered their most significant assassination. He was wise enough to heed the warning and did as they had instructed.ġ4th-century painting of the successful assassination of Nizam al-Mulk, vizier of the Seljuq Empire, by an ancient assassin from the Hashashins. The notorious Muslim leader Saladin allegedly received one of these threatening Hashashin notes pinned to his table with a poisoned dagger as he slept, along with a tray of Hashashin scones. The Hashashins, a group of assassins formed in Persia and Syria, were so feared that when they left a warning note and a calling card, such as scones made in the characteristic Hashashin way, it was often enough to persuade someone to do what they were told The word ‘assassinate’ today means to kill an important figure for political reasons, but the assassins of the past did not always resort to killing to get their point across. From secret codes to secret weapons, these are ten facts about assassins you may not have heard before. The truth behind these ancient groups of assassins is often clouded in mystery – their activities were clandestine and discussing their work was often considered taboo – but the surviving information about assassins provides some fascinating information about the roles they played in ancient society and the tactics they were willing to employ. The games are known for their historical accuracy and while the society itself may be fictional, there really were assassins in most, if not all, of the ancient civilizations we are familiar with today.
#SNEAKY NINJA TACTICS TO EMPLOY SERIES#
The game series Assassin’s Creed is a wildly successful franchise following a secret order of assassins who have existed for thousands of years.
