More Zane related hugs (a side hug counts okay). Also they should've wrecked more of the administration actually.
Moments where zane-related hugs were warranted: [1] [here]
Bonus:
Tumblr media
You know, if I were Lloyd, I'd hug the closest family member before taking in life-altering power. That could've done irreversible damage to your body or worse, Lloyd.
(Still wondering what the effects are gonna be tho)

Tonight on "Boring Worldbuilding Theories Only I Care About":
So characters are often seen saying things like "gee" and " jeez", which doesnt really make sense at a surface level bc both of those terms have Christian roots, being short for "jesus." Similarly, words like "gosh" and "golly" are a euphemism for "god", and exist as an alternative to "saying the lord's name in vain" - a concept that originated from the Bible and is to my knowledge exclusively Christian/Christian-adjacent.
The problem is, Christianity doesnt exist in Ninjago (outside of that one time Kai went on an acid trip and invented Christmas with the power of hallucination). So that means jeez/gee and gosh/golly had to have entered their lexicon in a different way.
"Gosh" is perhaps the easiest to explain. It probably has a similar linguistic function in Ninjago as it does in our world - after all, it doesnt seem too outlandish to conclude that there are religious rhetorics in-universe that discourage the speaking of godly names. Of course Ninjago does seem to be a predominantly secular society now - relying on religion for tradition and culture, but the actual observance of faith seems largely restricted to monks and select demographics - so it's likely that the practice of godly euphemisms may have over time disseminated from religious praxis into broader cultural colloquialism.
Although that does certainly raise the question about cultural variation in the characters who swear by the FSM's name like Wu and I think Pixal once, whereas characters like Ed and Jay use godly euphemisms - gosh, golly, etc. Were these religious sects more prominent in some regions than others? Ed and Jay, who use the euphemisms, both hail from the Sea of Sand - was this desert once within the territory of one of these euphemistic groups? And did these groups all follow the same faith but as part of different sects, or were they different religions altogether? Much to think about.
But as for gee and jeez...well, what if they're shortened versions of "wojira"? We know she was the prevailing deity back before the FSM showed up and defeated her, and is still worshipped in places like the Island of the Keepers. Perhaps, when her acknowledgement was more ubiquitous, her name was similarly used as a form of exclamation - but over time, due to cultural and linguistic evolution, the exclamation became shortened to things like "jeez" and "gee".
...yeah, i warned you this was gonna be boring. Dont come crying to me if you fell asleep halfway through.

Ninjago Theory Discussion Time!!!!!
So, there are seven Source Dragons:
Tumblr media
But as of DR S2 Prt 1 we only know 4; Motion, Energy, Strength, and Life (they are the only ones who spoke after Lloyd begged for a vision in ep 3)
So, as far as I know, we don't know what the blue, grey/yellow, or white (the one directly to the right of Life) ones are
What do you think they are?
I feel that some possibilities are; Change, Emotion, Action, and Destiny/Fate
(If one is Destiny/Fate then Lloyd has some words for her. Mainly boiling down to "What the fuck?!")

I have a Ninjago AU.
If you didn't expect it already, it's Morro-centric. Also it is half an idea and a bag of funny quotes to go with it, none of this is laid out and, if I post about it again, the lore will probably change a lot.
But anyways, it kinda goes like this:
• Morro gets revived
• He maybe runs into Wu and the Ninja??
• If he does, he says fuck that and runs away (because avoidance is his "solution" to all of his problems)
• He eventually stumbles upon these children
• SURPRISE!! It's Brad and Gene! (And maybe Sally and possibly little Lloyd. I'm still trying to decide all of this)
• Morro's immediate reaction is "whose kids are these and why won't they leAVE ME ALONE???"
• Forced Found Family Moment TM
• Morro kind-of-but-not-really adopts the gaggle of children
• Said children decide to drag him through a redemption arc, and so now he goes around just helping people around Ninjago, mostly in Ninjago City.
• They become known by the locals as the "Unhinged Community Service"
• The name sticks and the kids start recording their weird bullshit and post it on social media
• The Ninja/Wu find the account and visit Morro bc conflict (I'm I'm a sucker for Wu and Morro content-)
• Therapy ensues
• Happy ever after(?)
(At least until I decide to ruin it >:) )

What would the ninja Dragons be if they were in the httyd universe?
Here is my list of what dragons of each ninja would have if they would in the httyd universe. So click the read more to see, and also let me know what dragon you see the ninja having!
The first one is Kai, his is a monstrous nightmare. Original it was a singetail, but it doesn't go too well because singetail are known to be hardy dragons to tame due to them being territorial, but only that when there's one singetail it very like there will be a pack of them, Plus Kai would say the monstrous nightmare is cooler because it can set itself on fire while also having a loveable face. ❤️
Second is nya, and hers is the tide glider. This one was a little hard due to some of the tide base dragons not really fitting nays character, I've could've gone with the scauldron, but in lore they need to be in water 24/7. Also, I would think nya would like a dragon that can fast travel across the water. idk, tell me guys what dragon would fit, nya!
Third is Jay, and his dragon will be. It skrill, just skrill...
Ok, fourth is Cole, and his dragon is a shovelhelm. The reason I chose this dragon and not a Grunkle is because i feel like their description fits Cole as a character. They are described as being intelligent, finding problems to fix, also they are very chubby and cute
Fifth is Zane. His is a snow wrath, I've realized there are not really that many ice dragons in the httyd universe. The only dragon I know is the Bewilderes beast and the Chimeragon, but that dragon is a hybrid and holds 3 elements,but I feel that the snow wrath will be very useful for Tracking do to there thermovision and speed
Sixth is lloyd, his dragon is a dramillion the parrot of the httyd universe, having the ability to mimic any dragon fire power with Hight Intelligence and great leader ship for a pack animal, I always fell that this dragon fit lloyd very well.
Now for Wu and garmadon. I would say that Wu gets a Terrible terror & stormcutter, while garmadon gets a trippelstrike and a night terror
So that my idea on which dragon the ninja would have in the httyd universe next are the villains or the dragon rising character!

Okay so I watched all of Ninjago Dragons Rising s2p2! I've got so many thoughts and I'm dumping them all here in a long list. SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
to start: Cole!! He's a family man! He's got a boyfriend and they hold hands and they care for their kids and Bonzle so obviously came out to them and omg I wanted to cry. The joy of acceptance. I mean come one she kept saying how alone she felt, they're found family, she was repeating that she chose he town name and identity and the villains were insistent that she wants a person but just a spell like come on
But there's more than that, I have questions I have concerns!! Like wtf happend on Coles quest?? With Sensei Wu??? Like he disappeared and turned up again and said he would explain but never did.
Cole also came back from that in his bolder form so did he figure out he could do it on his own then? Is that what he learned on his quest?? If so it's gonna be a little awkward when he tried to explain that to his bf Geo.
With part 2 I really want to see the whole gang meet them and talk and catch up on everything. Like cole has been missing since the merge and no one this season cared. At all. They hadn't seen him in ages- didn't even know if he was alive until drs1 but nope no worries or concerns. Not even a question of what he was up to.
When he came through the portal Zane wasn't worried or confused at all, just oh? You need some help?? Sure let's beat these bad guys and not worry or show emotions! Is a tearful reunion for my fav character too much to ask?? Cuz he clearly deserves it. :(
And then into both Zane and Coke this season!! Love them!! They've always been my fav duo (gonna have to start shipping geo/Cole/Zane as poly now) it was so fun to see them going around together with Bonzle. They had some great moments and I'm praying we get more in the next part.
On the other hand it was a shame they got such small roles- just seperated from the others as a way to help Bonzle. It means they didn't have the same lessons or knowledge the others got which is totally unfair!! They have a lot to catch up on. They also never got a chance to be part of the main battle
It's dumb but I was kinda hoping for Cole to show off his stronger powers (he always seems to get new powers every other season but that's a discussion for another day). Like sure he could use his robotic mech suit but that's been done before! He can do his boulder thing now (unless somehow he still thinks he can't which means he kept up that form for several days on his quest) and when he made that giant mid hut to protect his family!! I want to see him do that again! Let me man go ape shit to protect Bonzle.
And on another note, Geo my beloved, you should get a chance to shine with your powers. A chance to show off or at least have a talk about them with Cole.
Next up WyldFyre. I was worried they would make her the annoying comic relief cuz if her injury but her talks about losing loved ones and dragon culture and her home were really sweet and it was great to see some development so driven by battles. I love those too don't get me wrong but like I needed to see this side of her. And I adore her relationship with Kai, being besties/mentors/dad for her works so great for both characters.
I will be first to admit that
Kai wasn't really my favourite. If you couldn't tell I love Cole followed by Zane. Always have and likely always will. I suppose that early Kai reminded me too much of some guys form my class and they turned into shitheads and I've always struggled to reconcile Kai's image form theirs. He was always a little too brash, hotheaded, and too often written as stupid to fall into my good graces.
And yet this season I adored him. Of course I've never hated him but like this season made me see what all his fans (many many fans) see in him.
I thought Kai being the first to master such a new, difficult and crucial skill was incredibly satisfying. Form all the way back to season 1 he's been the butt of jokes- having to learn he's not the centre of the universe and sometimes it's others like Lloyd who are the chosen ones. That's all great but him now getting a starting role, his ability being fueled by thoughts of his family, by his childhood and by protecting is friends was just too good to ignore him. Love this form of his character more than any other I've seen.
And now Kai is trapped :(
I'm glad he's got Bonzle with him tho so hopefully they can have each other's backs (she's meant to be a POWERFUL spell after all) they'll need each other if they're trapped with those other 4 guys. If they can apparently demolish everything then I'm rather worried for the duo. Tbh I'm sure they'll survive just fine, probably making jokes at Cole's expense all the while.
On a side note, I found it super cute how WyldFyre was willing to protect and go down with Kai. Besties I'm telling ya
Now Jay. I've never thought too hard about him I know he's one of the favs of the fandom but like Kai I was never so besotted with him. Still a great guy and omg I feel so bad. One of his worst fears was always being alone and now stuck, confused, forced to hide such a fundamental part of himself.
On the other hand he's got a gun now so that's fun!!
And you can't talk about him without mentioning Nya. He worst fears being him forgetting hurts my soul. And she was so sure it could never be true that she snapped out of her nightmare state!! She's going to break when she finds out.
She's already grieving her own brother, we saw her break down into WyldFyre (more proof she's an honorary sibling by now) but now knowing what's happening with Jay, I'm saying the angst is going to be overpowering. It's a greek tragedy fr
Part 2 is going to be rough. Jay only had a single scene but it's already a sign for the worst to come.
Speaking of things being rough, Lloyd is going THROUGH IT!! give this poor guy a break. I do appreciate that we physically get to see the effects of all his trauma- that everything that's happened has real consequences for his character and the story but I can't help but feel bad.
I've also suffered from anxiety for most of my life so to see it in a character like that feels really personal to me. Hope he gets a little break though, god knows he deserves it.
Have to say it's pretty funny that Lloyd's had so much Oni trauma that he forgot that he's part dragon too. Yes ninjas dragons can do spinjitsu why are you surprised at this point
The animation this season has been incredible, the fights were beautiful the angles so interesting and dynamic and I could go on for hours about how much I love it. It's always great when kids -and even animation in general is treated with respect. It doesn't dumb it's ideas and stories and characters for the sake of it's younger audience, and that makes it so much better for me who is definitely out of the age range.
I have my more points to make but I've been adding stuff in and off for ages so I'll probably go through this all later. Thanks for reading, please I want to know your own thoughts too I love discussing that kinda stuff!!
<3

So who remembers that episode of Ninjago where the ninja turn into kids
Idk why but I found it funny when it happened because the ninja kinda looked like chibi versions of themselves

It looks like someone did some cute fanart of them or part of some (ninjago but kids!!!) Au on Ao3
