A couple of weeks ago I bothered to spend the time to write out Wukong and Macaque’s leitmotifs because I noticed that they were very similar, differing primarily in that they weren’t identical, but up to a certain point were almost major vs minor versions of each other’s themes (pictured below)
Again, you can tell they’re not identical on paper, but to the ear they sound very similar, and it’s obviously not a coincidence that they start off with the same rhythm. You apparently can’t add more than one video to a post, so I’ll put the Macaque bit that I clipped and just say that I got Wukong’s from the end credits.
The similarities are notable, again, featuring Wukong in a major key and Macaque in minor key. (The version I wrote out is not in the same key as the clip; it was easier to compare them on paper when I wrote them in the sameish key.)
I’m no music analyst, I just took a year of the required colleges courses for music and switched away from it and still have everything ingrained in my head, so there’s not anything in particular I’m trying to say here, I just go bananas for it every time I hear either theme :))
Edit: I drew this out on FireAlpaca and forgot to mention that earlier. It’s not particularly relevant but I do think it’s funny
The Cole homophobia on Instagram has woken me up from my Ninjago slumber. Like I just know these are people who haven't been into the show since they were little boys, and probably don't even know what's going on anymore. Basically they're not Ninjago fans. None of the Ninjago characters have confirmed sexualities, and to create a petition against a sexuality of a character who is just chilling is so wild. They're so obsessed with gay people they wanted other people to suck their dicks and agree with their opinion that a LEGO isn't gay (he technically isn't by the way, which is the icing on the cake). This was fr not on my 2024 bingo card.
✨Me gusta imaginar que cuando Wu decidió salir del clóset en frente de su hermano mayor, la interacción entre el y Garmadon se resume así:
Wu: Garmadon, tengo que decirte algo … Soy gay-
Garmadon: Enhorabuena, eres la última persona en darse cuenta de eso.
💐I like to imagine that when Wu decided to come out of the closet in front of his older brother, the interaction between him and Garmadon is summed up like this:
Wu: Garmadon, I have to tell you something … I'm gay-
Garmadon: Congratulations, you're the last person to realize that.
Not exactly fanart, just a silly little thing I did. I recently found a cool script called crescerys (made by /u/TokiwaKurumi on reddit), and I've been obsessed with it! And what other thing have I been obsessed with? A fic "A Garden across our collarbone" by @pittdpeaches ! So I decided to practice by writing a part of the first chapter in this script. It was super fun and relaxing!
