Sumary: Lloyd is having a sleepover at the monastery of his father. Reader is close to Lloyd but struggles with the other ninjas
Pairing: Garmadon x reader (platonic), Lloyd x reader (mentioned crush)
Warnings: feeling outcasted, mention of past toxic friends, social problems, fluff
Readers gender/pronouns aren't stated, so read it as you ❤️
Tumblr media
Standing in front of the monastery was harder than you first assumed. You weren't too keen on a sleepover with the ninjas. To everyone else, this would sound mad. A sleepover with THE ninjas! Others would kill to have that! It's just that you're not good in groups. You just always ended up being the outcast.
The poor friend that just swang along. Meanwhile, all the others were bffs.
Besides, you didn't even know the other ninjas. You were only close to Lloyd, and he wanted you to be there. After some of his puppy eyes, you accepted.
You were at the monastery before. You even knew Lloyds Father, but that didn't linger your fear. Maybe you could just turn around and go -
"Hey, (Y/n)! I'm glad you could make it!"Lloyd yelled of his window from his room and waved at you.
Great, no turning back now...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Lloyds room, you unpacked your bag. The others were already there. Kai had his stuff in front of Lloyds bed. Zane was next to Lloyds bed. Jay and Cole slept across, but still near, of Kai. And Nya was next Zane.
You put your stuff in the left corner, near Lloyds bed. You unpacked your pillow and blanket on the small mattress that was prepared for you. The last detail was your favorite stuffed animal, Lloyd gifted it to you when you two were at a funfair together. (Imagine it as what you want, I personally imagined an Eeyore type of stuffed animal)
Your bag with your other stuff was at the end of your sleep area.
"Okay, then let's get downstairs!"Jay screeched like a little kid.
"F-For what?" You asked quietly, but they either didn't hear or ignored you.
As the others ran downstairs, Lloyd turned around. He noticed that you weren't coming along.
"Are you coming (Y/n)? We want to play some video games, " the blonde explained.
Forcing a smile upon your lips worked as you followed him quietly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Okay, guys. What shall we play?" Cole asked into the group.
"How abo-"
"Our Ninja Video Game!" Kai suggested, not noticing that he had interrupted you.
Since only four could play, the plan was to switch the consoles from time to time.
Lloyd, Kai, Jay and Zane were playing meanwhile Cole and Nya watched them.
You sat on the ground a little away from the others. You didn't get this game. But they seemed to love it. Maybe you could change the game later to something you actually liked to play.
"Oh no!" Kai whined as he got shot by the enemy.
"Yes! My turn!" Nya took the controller of her brother and started to play.
Jay got shot next so Cole got to play. As Zane was game over, you stood up to get the controller, but Jay was in your place faster.
"Ehm, isn't it my turn?" You asked, but they played that stupid game so loud they couldn't even hear you. No, all eyes were on the screen.
'Nothing will change. I'm just not cut out to be with others. I should just accept that.' With this thought, you silently left the living room and went to Lloyds room.
You saw how all the other sleeping areas were connected, except yours. It was away from the others. And that's how it was in real life. You didn't belong to them, they were a team and you? You were just someone who was friends with one of them.
As fast as you could, you packed your stuff back into your bag. Expect your stuffed animal. You needed to hug it now.
"(Y/n)? Shouldn't you be down with the others?" When you turned around, you saw Lloyds Father, Sensei Garmadon.
You kept quiet, hoping he'd go and mind his own business.
"You don't look good. Wanna have a tea?",
You didn't want to decline his nice offer, but on the other hand you wanted to get home as fast as possible.
"Come with me, you can tell me what's bothering you", with that he left Lloyds room and obviously intended you to follow him. You let out a sigh and took your plushie with you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So, what is it?"
"I don't know what you mean, Sensei. I'm fine", Carefully you took a small sip of your cup to see that it still was too hot to drink. Your stuffed animal was on your lap, so Garmadon didn't see it.
"If anything is fine, then why aren't you with the others?" A worried look was on his face.
"Ehm, I just don't like the game, so..." You felt how you slowly crumpled down. You already could feel the hot tears in your eyes. And Garmadon obviously knew that it was a lie.
"You know that you make my son verry happy, right? He loves to spend his afternoons with you, and when he's home, he never stops talking about you. I think you are what makes him feel normal sometimes. Lloyd would never do something to hurt you, so if this sleepover is a problem for you, I guarantee that he doesn't know it, "
"T-that's not it, Sensei. I also really like Lloyd, but bonding with others is really hard for me. I just can't do anything right! If I say my opinion, I'm rude. If I keep quiet, I'm too shy. And it goes on and on. I'm just tired of trying to win a war, I know I'll never win, " It felt good to finally say this out loud. You always had to keep it to yourself, so you wouldn't annoy somebody.
"And I don't even know the others. Lloyd is the one who made me come here in the first place. And now .... I don't know, I just want to go home, "
The elder let out a sigh and took a sip of his teacup before his attention was back on you.
"I won't force you to stay here just because you make my son happy. Making sure that you feel good is more important. If you aren't okay, you can't help anyone else. Alas, nothing will change if you keep hiding your emotions. Bottling up the bad feelings and forcing up a smile just for others will only make you sick. Both physical and emotional, "
As you slowly took a sip of the tea, you tasted a little bit of cherry and cinnamon and some herbals as well. It made you feel warm from the inside, or maybe his words caused this feeling?
"But won't that be intrusive?" You almost whispered. All your past friends said that you were a bad friend cause you wanted to get some advice, help or maybe just talk about it. On the other hand, they never bothered to tell you about their hard life and their problems...
"A true and loyal friend would never call you that. You have a special place in their heart, and friends always have their backs and can trust and rely on each other, "
So Lloyd was a true friend. He never expected you to play a role and just wanted you to be you. Sometimes, he was your reason to smile, and so were you his.
"Thanks, Sensei. This talk helped me a lot. It might take some time for me to make friends with others, but now I know what my worth is, " With that, you drank the rest of your tea, and at the same time, Lloyd came inside the room.
"I've been looking for you, (Y/n)! I'm sorry that we ignored you! It really wasn't our intention! It's just that - "
"It's okay, Lloyd. So! Wanna explain this nonsense making game to me?" You asked as you stood up and held your stuffed animal in your right hand.
"Sure!" With that, he took your left wrist and ran downstairs with you.
Garmadon just smiled at the two of you and drank another cup of his tea.

the ninja and their various traumas: a headcanon(?)
jk some of these are def canon
kai!
shouldered far too many responsibilities after the disappearance of his parents
from this stemmed a Phat Ego & deeply ingrained need to prove himself…
…and fiercely protect everything & everyone he cares about because he trusts precious few people and as a child he felt like everything could fall apart at any second
is constantly fighting against impulses that would drag him into darkness if he followed them
nya!
permanently rooted fear that she’s an inconvenience AKA fear of abandonment
mad social anxiety bc homegirl was not in school like she should’ve been
anger issues bc childhood was so unstable & she finds anger easier to comprehend than fear
fear of failure bc what if she looks stupid and what if she’s in her brother’s shadow forever and what if she’s not good enough (see: fear of abandonment)
died one time and no one remembers but her and jay
jay!
anxiety in every shape and size and color
insecurity that he’s “too much” from years of being called loud & annoying by peers
history of investing too much of himself into things and people/hyperfixating bc he only knows how to love & feel with every cell in his body and he’s constantly terrified of overwhelming people
and this doesn’t come in til later but the revelation he was ADOPTED?? he & nya are “fear of abandonment” twins now
watched nya die one time and no one remembers except her
cole!
loss of his mother AKA the softer presence in his life; unrealistic expectations from his dad and constantly facing lou’s disappointment
shitty coping mechanisms. would rather physically over-exert himself than process his feelings. also a stress eater
under a lot of pressure and often behaves too mature for his age bc he’s afraid everything will collapse if he doesn’t hold it together
is competing w kai for mom of the group bc he feels immeasurable responsibility for everyone he cares about
zane!
literally is a robot
and found out he is a robot after years of having LOST HIS MEMORY
always a little nervous he is going to annoy someone/offend someone/further alienate himself (fear! of! abandonment!)
on that note: afraid he will never understand the human experience and will always be lacking in some important quality or ability to connect with others
exploded and was rebuilt and had to regain his memories
lloyd!
actually invented the fear of abandonment.
severe mommy & daddy issues. like “severe” doesn’t even BEGIN to cover it
quite literally grew up too fast
keeps finding out his lineage contains more weird mystical components and is fighting off identity crises with a broken broom
was possessed
and that’s just the tip of the iceberg, feel free to add to it. there’s also PTSD across the board & various deaths/near-deaths & FSM knows what else.

ninjago......the silly little ninjas...........lets go
cole is the biggest tickle monster and he 100% picks on jay all the time because jay is a walking tickle spot and it's actually so funny bc you can just poke him and he jumps like 20 feet in the air and SCREAMS! kai is also kind of dumb and always falls for stupid tickle tricks like "don't what?" or "can you grab that thing on the high shelf for me" and then he gets got and the other ninja make fun of him for it all the time. ZANE OMG he's not as tickly but he knows everyone's tickle spots and sometimes he just watches and will be like "yo why aren't you getting his tummy" and the person getting got is screaming at him to shut up and he just does that silly little smug face and walks off (he gets got afterwards when he does that because there is no way he can get away with it). jay is like the main ninja that gets tickled but he is so snarky and whenever he's getting tickled he's always putting himself in a worse position because he's so bratty LMFAO and then if he's tickling someone it's even WORSE like he's so mean about it. he'll be so so evil like just going after one of them and then as soon as the tables turn he's like "nono wait dude i was just kidding come on lets talk about this!!!!" but he deserves it so don't feel bad for him lol.
THAT WAS SO MUCH I AM SO SORRY IM JUST... A LITTLE INSANE have a lovely day or night!!
THE WAY I GASPED WHEN I SAW THIS LMFAO IM SOBBIGN THESE ARE SO TRUE
slaps you with this thank you so much for sharing im going to go cry

my Ninjago headcanons!!!!
Kai
• Is TikTok famous. He likes to put his camera in everyone’s face while they do normal everday things then says “ooh this is perfect, everyone will love this!!” and then everyone does love it.
• Spends most of his time trying to annoy his teammates. He finds it funny how easily Nya gets ticked off, so he annoys her most often. ex) going into her room and just singing really loud.
• Thinks Tarayummy is his soulmate. He sits in his room in the dark and just watches her videos. He has a hatred for every man she has ever talked to.
Nya
• Says she hates dressing up/wearing dresses, but at night she secretly puts on pretty ball gowns she hides in boxes in her closet. (I do this)
• Loves art, but she mostly paints. She picked it up after seeing the paintings Jay did after seabound. He taught her a lot of it.
• Anytime she sees a friend or someone she knows out in public she has to talk to them. It’s like when you were little and your mom/dad saw someone at the store and they just had to talk to them forever. She does that.
Zane
• There’s a desk in his room with the most random junk on it. He doesn’t even know where most of it came from. This junk varies from model airplanes to defused pipe bombs.
• He’ll give himself weird accents sometimes. If he’s bored he will just put on a new accent and talk to the others to see their reactions. One time he did a Russian accent that scared Jay so much he peed his pants.
• He could watch those videos of dancing fruit for hours. He just loves brain rot, and that’s okay because it keeps him busy.
Cole
• Religiously watches edits of himself of TikTok. Once he accidentally reposted one and everyone lost their mind.
• Thinks Halo by Beyoncé is the greatest song ever written. It’s the only song he will sing in front of other people and he will put his whole heart and soul into it every time.
• Likes to skateboard, but doesn’t have enough time. He thought it would be a fun hobby to pick up before he was a ninja and actually got really good at it. He isn’t as good now, but he can still do some tricks.
Jay
• This man is so zesty oh my god. Everyone in Ninjago thought he was gay until he got together with Nya. There are still people who think it’s all just an act to cover it up.
• If this guy sees a river he is getting in. It doesn’t matter if it’s 10 or 80 degrees, this man is ready to jump in any river he sees. He tries to get everyone else to join, but they aren’t as stupid (except Cole who obviously has to join him)
•Watches Instagram reels instead of TikTok. He thinks they’re funnier, and Kai thinks that it’s the funniest thing in the world and never shuts up about it.
Lloyd
• A lot of people think this, but I think that he bleach’s his hair. He doesn’t want to look anything like his dad, and he thinks his dark hair makes him look evil.
• Also likes art, but mostly draws. He likes to do art with Nya, but picked it up when he was younger. He used to make his own comic books about the ninja in S1.
• Wants to be a theater kid so bad, but he has to focus on his ninja work. He’s made everyone watch Hamilton at least 5 times (so far).
I have other headcanons about a lot of other characters, and more about these guys if you’re interested.

Please dear author, what would ROs reaction be to MC falling asleep like in the tale, with a kiss of true love to awake them, but........RO's kiss didn't work? 💔
💛 Marcel
When you didn't wake, all Marcel could do was force his breathing, because if he didn't, it would stop. His heart broke into a million pieces. You two weren't meant to be in the fates, but he was going to save you. He couldn't stop caring. He couldn't stop loving you, no matter what this meant. He tried to smile, gently moving some hair out of your eyes.
The eyes were still closed. 
"Don't worry, love; I'll find a way to break the curse if it is the last thing I do." He spoke softly in your ear, his voice clear and determined. 
🧡 Margaret
Margaret's body shook as she sobbed. From the moment she realized she loved you, she believed God or some kind of fate brought you together, like in the fairy tale books her mother read her as a kid.
But this was real life, and those were stories. There were no happy ever-afters. She failed you, and her body sagged against yours, her forehead touching your own as she kept whispering.
"Im sorry." Over and over again. 
❤️ Owen
Usually when Owen was upset, it was anger that quickly followed, but as he watched your eyes stay closed, all he felt was sadness. Of course, you didn't wake up. 
How stupid do I have to be to think I deserve love again after....
Owen didn't want to think about him; he just sat there, cradling your head as rare tears ran down his cheek. 
💙 Rosemary
She rubbed soft circles in your hand, her tears flowing freely. As stupid as it sounded, she hadn't believed in true love since her ex, but that all changed when you came into her life. 
You made her believe again, and now you were gone—worse, then death—hell, in death she might be able to visit you. You were in an endless sleep, and she was awake. Alone and awake. 
She laid down beside you, closing her eyes as tears still poured out of them, hoping sleep would take her to you by some miracle. 
🩵 Tai
Tai was about cold, hard facts—something that was hard for him when it had anything to do with you. You were everything to him. He loved you. It scared him to death, but he loved you, and it wasn't meant to be by fate.
When the kiss didn't work, he felt like he couldn't breathe until he kissed you again. In a different angle, on your forehead, then on your cheek, until he realized he was crying. 
He didn't know what to do, and he hated it. It was worse than being wrong. He shook his head, holding you close. He was going to wake you up no matter the cost because maybe he wasn't your true love, but you were his, and that was a fact.
💚 Zane
".....no....no...." Zane whispered. 
All Zane felt was fury. You tricked him. Somehow you tricked him. Was this your plan to make him fall in love with you and then leave him....to what....break him? 
He got up and started pacing, pointing an accusing finger at you with your eyes still closed, mocking him. 
"You said... you said we were going to be together forever. You said you loved me! You liar! I love you! Why can't you love me?" He screamed, his anger not at you but at himself. 
He never knew what love was before you, so was it all a lie? Was it all some kind of story that people made up to make themselves feel better? Zane put his head in his hands, his mind racing as he questioned your relationship.
It broke him.

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!!

Skybound had so many good ideas and concepts that I really like the season for. On the other hand, it fumbled like 80% of those ideas soooo hard that makes me want to cry.
(suuuper long indulgent rant about Skybound underneath cut read at your own risk)
Nadakhan is my favorite villain in a bubble. He’s this disgraced djinn prince who runs away from his home realm to become one of the most feared pirate captains in Ninjago and when he tries to return home, it’s all crumbling. He then exacts revenge on those who destroyed his home by manipulating them and toying with them psychologically, eventually trapping their souls in a sword? Badass, right?
Except that all of this cool characterization is contradicted and bastardized left and right. The season dumbs down the ninja instead of making Nadakhan smarter so he can win. When he gains the ability to make his own wishes, he resorts to immediately killing everyone. His obsession with Nya is really weird considering that she was the one who CAUSED Djinnjago to get destroyed.
Jay and Nya’s character arcs are really interesting too. In a bubble. Jay has to step up as a leader after all his friends were taken by this guy, who he has to face after he kidnapped and tortured him. He fucked around and found out the hard way and has to make up for it. Nya continues to struggle with her identity and coming into her own as a ninja and not having Samurai X to latch onto. They both have to fight to keep each other safe and make sacrifices and fall back in love.
Once again though, this is all fumbled and explored in a way that makes me tear my hair out. Jay is a selfish obsessive whiny asshole who’s pining for Nya is super uncomfortable and annoying to watch instead of cute or relatable. Nya is an even bigger asshole than he is. She lets Clouse get away in the beginning to throw a tantrum on Jay, which causes Nadakhan to be freed in the first place. She causes Jay to nearly get killed by the Tiger Widow and then get kidnapped/tortured, all because she was mad at him.
So many other plot points and character choices make me so upset it really detracts from the season as a whole. To name some:
Kai’s ultra inflated ego/obsession with social media and girls
Dareth
Forcefully inserted misogyny
All of the prison arc. All of it.
Ronin betraying the ninja for the police. I get he likes money, but the ninja saved his ass and he is a known criminal. Just a weird place to take his character.
The ninja turning on Jay immediately and effectively sacrificing him to the ultra deadly giant spider
Cole and Lloyd being unceremoniously/anti-climatically removed from the season so Jay and Nya could be alone
Marriage plot (specifically Delara and the marriage plot only ever being used as an excuse for Nadakhan to fight with Jay over Nya which is really gross)
I wish Delara was explored more and was not a creepy Nya clone for Nadakhan to drool over, ew
Dareth
Cole, Lloyd, and Nya using up their wishes immediately in really stupid ways
Tonal whiplash from the goofy lighthearted first half of the season to the dark hopeless second half
Echo Zane (before the Echo fans come after me, I like his character, but he just introduces a lot of plot implications that are never resolved or addressed for a character who has like 10 minutes of screen time max and never gets to come back)
We never learn why Cliff and ‘Libber’ abandoned Jay with the Walkers. Cliff obviously cared about his son, he made a shrine for him in his dressing room, so why did he never contact him before his death? What happened to Jay’s mom? Did Wu know? It’s annoying to have this plot point, only for it to never be explored in the whole show besides a line about being adopted in Prime Empire. Maybe we’ll get some context in Dragons Rising, but I doubt it.
We were robbed from a rematch between Captain Soto and Nadakhan
I honestly wouldn’t mind the ending, if it wasn’t for the fact that the writers can’t decide wether everyone remembers the alternate timeline or not. That and it’s seems like the events of Skybound don’t effect Jay and Nya in later seasons like at all besides a wink and a nudge at the viewer. Once again, Jay was kidnapped and physically/psychologically abused and tortured, and Nya straight up died. They are the only people who (completely) remember and gained what should be a massive amount of trauma but nope! Lloyd has more on-screen/canon trauma over Harumi than Nya does about DYING or Jay does about TORTURE. Again, I don’t think that Dragons Rising will explore this to any extent either.
I also don’t mind the whole trapping the ninja in the Djinnblade thing, I just wish the ninja could have had more screen time. Either by keeping them around longer before trapping them, or showing what inside the sword was like idk
Nadakhan and Jay are kinda weird because I’m not sure why he singled him out out of all of the ninja. I know the Doylist answer is that Jay is the focus character for the season, but I find it weird that instead of getting the other ninja while he could, he wasted a lot of his time toying with Jay on Misfortunes Keep. Why didn’t he just kidnap all of the ninja on Tiger Widow Island instead of giving them a chance of escape. His obsession with Jay could have been easily explained or explored it it never is?
TL;DR, Skybound is a mess of really good and really bad ideas Frankensteined together in the messiest, laziest way they could. I still like it quite a bit, but I would be lying if I said it didn’t frustrate the hell out of me.

Marriage law
(Llorumi one shot) (They are very much out of character sometimes) (it's just me being delusional about them) (they also get to talk about the adoption thing cuz why not)
- After all of the catasrophes our city endured in past few years, inculding Wojira flood and Aspheera's attack in which many of our people lost their lives, and The Merge that departed some citizens from Ninjago, we City Council had to undertake necessary measures to prevent our city from depopulation, so it can still continue to function properly - the announcement was heard in the Monastery's living room. The government was on the conference, stating the solution to the gradually decreasing number of Ninjargons.
The team gathered around the TV and watched the news unsure of what to expect from it.
- From now on every adult in the city - that is a person who is over eighteen years old - is obliged to marry within the next thirty days. The list of possible spouses is available online or in City Hall's Civil Unions Department. Anyone who won't be paired with another person within next fifteen days, will be obliged to marry a spouse chosen by the mentioned Department. The spouses are to have at least one child in next three years if they don't encounter any complications. The act is valid until further notice - ninja could see the Prime Minister leaving the platform, accompanied by the voices of opposition.
Then the vision went back to the reporter, but nobody listened anymore. The silence lingering in the air made it thick with lost and indecision.
Kai took Skylor's hand and squeezed it, then jumped to reach his phone and write his name next to hers in the list. Jay did the same, just like Zane both smiling sadly at their partners. It wasn't suppose to be that rushed. They should be given a chance to live a normal life after everything they sacrifieced for their city. The documents must've been confirmed so they had to visit the City Hall anyway, but at least the former announcement had been already done.
Cole hid his face in his hands, not knowing what to do. He had to take action before he was paired with some random women. But he wasn't sure who to turn to for help. The thought of Vania went through his mind, but he didn't want to overwhelm her with his sudden proposition. They bearly knew each other. He treated her more like a friend. Not a possible future wife.
Lloyd on the other hand just sat there completely frozen. He did have an idea, but it was truly ridiculous. This whole situation seemed like a dream. He didn't even realised he was holding his breath until he released the air from his lungs.
Nya looked at him concerned. She put her hand on his shoulder.
- I'm so sorry, Lloyd - she said, biting her lips. - You know... I have some female friends that are your age, maybe I should introduce you. They're great, really and you know... who would turn down the green ninja.
Her reassuring smile looked so sad and forced like she was about to cry. Nya was mad that the government's stupid decision prevented her little brother from truly finding his soulmate. Especially after what happened between him and Harumi, she really hoped that someday he will meet someone that will love him unconditionally. She would be so happy for him, finally letting go of the past problematic relationship and building the future with his new lover.
Lloyd got up.
- I need to be alone for sometime - he said and left the room.
...
- Are you sure, young man? - asked the official, watching the blonde signing all of the documents scattered around the table.
- Yeah, the quicker I do it, the smaller is the chance that somebody else will choose her.
- You think somebody else would want her? - he asked, but then came to his senses and rapidly added - You know... she left prison not so long ago, it's been only few months, how do we know what's in her mind?
- There might be some man out there, who thinks about her even worse, and would take his chance to marry her just to hurt her - Lloyd stated calmly, eyes on the papers. - I guess that's all. Thank you.
- No problem, Mr. Garmadon - he answered and nodded.
- I'll be getting on my way, you know... ninja duties.
- Oh, yeah of course. Um... good luck...
Then Lloyd left the office, convinced that he had done the right thing. Though the fear was creeping in slowly. He knew for a fact that even if she decided to fight against the Overlord, didn't mean that she didn't blame him anymore.
...
The ceremony took place a few days after he had chosen her to be his bride. He couldn't tell what his decision was going to bring him. Lloyd was sure he saved her from abusive partner that she might've encountered. He also was sure that this was the only option to be with somebody he already had some relationship with. When you think about that they've known each other for about five years. He knew that he was able to promise her love and loyalty until his death and not break that vow. The love probably won't be romantic one, nevertheless he cared for her. But he wasn't sure who she was right now. Her character must've changed a lot since her trial - the last day he saw her. He also wasn't sure how will she think of him as her husband. Will she treat him with at least an ounce of respect? He was about to find out soon.
None of the ninja knew about his plans as he decided to tell them after the fact happened so they won't try to change his mind. The dinner they were organising the next Saturday in the Monastery with all of their other halfs was a perfect occasion.
When the evening came, Harumi showed up in the most breathtaking attire he has ever seen her in. The dress wrapped around her exquisite silhouette, sparkled with millions of tiny diamonds that matched her veil and jewelry.
Lloyd remembered his cheeks turning red at the sight of her approaching him slowly. She avoided his eyes until the oaths were made and he could tell how nervous she was about this whole thing.
Their first kiss wasn't what he imagined it to be. Actually he stopped imagining it after she revealed her true identity.
Even though they could've just not do it, for some reason Harumi locked his eyes with him and got closer, their hands entangled togheter. When her red lips connected with his, Lloyd's eyes widened and his grip on her hands tightened.
The kiss was tender, her lips warm and her taste sweet. It didn't last long, but he could feel himself hitting the ceiling.
After that she refused to look at him. Whether it was from embarrassment or just her prejudice against him.
If she still blamed him for releasing the Serpentine, it must've felt horrible to her to be forced to share something so intimate with who she thought was her parents murderer. Lloyd had to take some deep breaths while thinking about this.
On the other hand she wasn't really forced. He didn't do anything before she took an action. Maybe she felt that it's her duty or whatever... the more Lloyd thought about it the less he knew. He wasn't even sure if it was her first kiss. And the time he had to wait to talk to her for the first time again drove him crazy.
After the ceremony it turned out there was some criminal spotted in the city center so he had to leave her alone, sending Harumi one last regretful glance.
Now he had to get to their new home - an apartament in the middle of the city's business sphere. In one of these high, modern skyscrapers, the City Council decided to give them a place to live in.
The silence in his car just made him think more, so he decided to put on some music and just wait until he reaches their flat, not knowing what to expect.
He just hoped she won't try to kill him as a greeting. Lloyd reminded himself to be extra careful and have his blade in his hand when he'll enter it.
What had he gotten himself into?
...
The door in front of him was the only thing separating him from his newly wedded bride. He wodnered what did she look like? Did she changed her wedding dress to something else? What was she doing right now? Maybe she was already asleep? Maybe she was preparing to trap him there and finally get her revenge? The last option seemed ridiculous, but that never stopped him from gripping his sword and finally knocking on the door after he spent thirty minutes there, hesitating.
He heard some noises from inside, meaning she wasn't sleeping yet and probably was waiting for him.
The door opened, revealing the white haired girl, still in her white, sparkly dress, but without any other accessories. She wasn't even wearing any shoes, going back to her natural height, making the difference between them more visible.
It was hard to read her mind as her expression looked rather neutral. Not overly happy nor sad.
She opened her mouth to say something but quickly stopped herself, looking at the weapon in his right hand.
He must've looked like a complete freak.
He quickly pulled it back to the belt and rubbed his neck.
Harumi gave himsome space to walk inside his new household. It looked rather nice, maybe a little too futuristic for his liking yet still cozy.
Harumi closed the door and locked it, reminding him of her presence, making him turn to face her.
The atmosphere was tense, both not knowing how to start this conversation.
- You shouldn't have done that - she stated coldly, looking him straight in the eye.
- No offence, but I tried to protect you. Who knows what kind of man would like to marry you. Did you think about that he might've wanted to hurt you? And anyway you didn't refuse signing up the documents. It was also your decision, Harumi - he defended himself.
Maybe she thought she had no other choice?
- Yes, I did. And maybe that's what I deserve. What I mean is, really Lloyd? Don't you find it disturbing that you were ready to sacrifice your happy love life you could've had with somebody else for me. Do you even remember who I am? - Harumi questioned him.
- First of all, not at all do I think you deserve it and second, there is no "somebody" that I can think of that could quaratee me a happy love life. To be honest I don't think I'll ever be able to move on from you, you're stuck in the back of my mind all of the time, no matter how much I fight it. You're always there.
- So maybe that's something you should go talk to your therapist about. It's not healthy for you to be so attached to me still.
She was much more mature than she had been the last time they met, he took a note of that. She was also even more beautiful than he remembered. It was getting hard to breath around her, no matter how hard he tried to deny it.
He wasn't supposed to feel this way, he knew it, but he couldn't stop himself. What was happening to him?
- No, what I mean is, if I had chosen someone else, I would still wonder what would it be like if I chose you. I wouldn't want it for any woman to feel neglected because of my... as you said attachment to you. Don't get me wrong, I just... wasn't able to get over a fact that I could meet you again and... I was worried about... you know, this all... - he was getting more uncomfortable with every word that left his mouth. He said too much!
- Do you even realise what you've done!? You'll be stuck here with me and... well, it's required of me to give birth to your heir in next two years! Me! - she shouted gesticulating intensivly. - So tell me, what were you thinking Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon, when you thought that it's a great idea to marry me just to let go of your constant need to meet me again? Have you lost your mind?
- Your low self-esteem won't change my mind, Harumi - Lloyd said, earning an annoyed huff from her.
He got a few steps closer and offered her his hand.
- Neither will yours - she answered, but decided to take his offer.
It took everything in him not to smile stupidly at her. She was so sassy and it was probably her defensive reaction, but he liked it. And that scared him.
He spent so many time analising her over and over again. He wanted to understand. It was in his nature to try to find a way to get people out of the darkness. Her case was endlessly complicated, but that never scared him from going deeper into her mind. She still bothered him, even though he despised how much pain she inflicted into him and his family. He couldn't bring himself to despise her.
At first he thought he was just stuck in denial, but overtime she started to remind him of himself. Seeing all of their similarities made him conviced that their pasts were paralel lines, just completly reversed. Their stories forever tangled with each other. He couldn't get away from her, no matter how hard he tried. The connection between them crossed every line they ever created.
Their souls always yearning for the other.
He led her to their bedroom. Everything in this house was now theirs, this fact left him uneasy.
They were thiers.
She was his. The words kept repeating in his head. He let that thought sink.
What a weird feeling.
She must've think about it too as she took a deep breath before turning her face to him.
Funny, how easy it was for him to read the master of the masks like an open book.
- What now? - she asked, fiddling with her white long hair, visibly nervous.
- Harumi - he got her attention. - You're so young, I would never force you. It can wait, it should. We're not even comfortable being here with each other yet.
She nodded. He gave her a sad smile.
After that she turned her gaze to the bed. She haven't slept very well since she discovered what Lloyd decided to do. Harumi gracefully threw herself on it sighing in content, which made Lloyd chuckle.
- You're not changing? - he asked her.
- Who cares - she mumbled, getting under the covers.
- You're gonna ruin your dress.
- Didn't know you liked it that much - she said in her sleepy voice.
Lloyd had to turn his gaze away. He liked this version of her a lot actually.
He decided that he was too exhaused to be bothered himself, so he just put his weapons on the comode and laid down on his side.
They turned away, finding it too awkward to stare at the other.
Harumi cloed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Lloyd on the other hand, felt his anxiety creeping in as they stayed still in complete silence.
What if he's wrong? What if she's just pretending? Toying with him just to stab him in the back again? He can't sleep! She'll kill him!
He shouldn't have left his swords on that comode, but he found himself to frightened to even move one inch.
The tiredness was overwhelming.
Don't go to sleep!
But he couldn't help his eyelids slowly closing.
...
Lloyd woke up to the view he was scared to see the most. Harumi was there looking at him in his sleep in the middle of the night. Panicked, he quickly backed himself away, but then he noticed tearstains on her cheeks that snapped him out of his state.
He looked at her concerned.
- I didn't mean to scare you, sorry - she said, hiding her face in her hands, wiping the tears away.
He laid back down, questioning her quietly when her gaze returned to him.
- I can't believe how I treated your body - Harumi's bearly above a whisper.
So he was actually right, her coldness was just a defensive reaction.
- As if it was a piece of dirt - she continued, pure horror in her eyes. She bit her lip, failing to prevent more tears from falling.
- I forgive you - he whispered to her, which led her to turn into a sobbing mess.
She shook her head vigorously, holding her hand to her mouth, her whole body trembling.
Lloyd pulled himself up and reached the tissues on his night stand.
- Hey, it's okay - he said, drying her tears with a tissue, one of his hands fondly stroking her shoulder.
After a few shaky breaths Harumi managed to get herself together.
They laid back down, still turned away from each other.
This time Lloyd was sure, that she most definitely wasn't planning on killing him. Not yet at least.
He was about to drift off, when he felt Harumi wrapping one of her arms around him, placing her hand on his chest.
His breath hitched.
- Goodnight, Lloyd - she said casually, leaning her forehead on the back of his neck, taking in his perfumes.
Lloyd relaxed in her hold and soon enough, they were both asleep.
...
The white haired girl stared at her reflection in the mirror. She was wearing a long, silky geeen dress, her hair half up half down, falling loosely on her shoulders.
Harumi was waiting for Lloyd to pick her up, before going to the dinner the ninja were organising this evening.
He had some stuff to deal with in the city. She didn't question it. It's been a few days since their marriage and most of the time they just weren't talking to each other at all.
They could sense some sort of understandment between them. They didn't have to fake anything. They just respected each other and let the other live their life like they did before.
After a while they even stopped sleeping in the same bed as Harumi was usually working late, contacting with commissioner or some other officials that she was helping. Nobody knew about that of course. People probably wouldn't approve of former villain working with their security services. She often fell asleep on the couch and it bacame a routine for Lloyd to close her laptop and wrap her in the blanket before going to bed himself, not wanting to wake her up when her sleeping schedule was already very poor.
The information about their marriage wasn't made public. Green Ninja's spouse remained a secret.
After the Merge the Monastery slowly became more of a place of team meetings rather then their regular home. They were all adults now and most of the ninja had their own apartaments somewhere in the city so they didn't question Lloyd not being present there all of the time.
Now they knew that he was already married, which shocked them to saythe least. They were annoyed with him not telling them who did he choose, but they were finally about to find out today.
...
The ninja sat on their seats around the long wooden table. The sound of conversations reaching the other room, where Lloyd and Harumi stayed after ariving to the Monastery. Lloyd felt at home. The coziness and familiar voices mixed with smell of traditional dishes making him relaxed. Something you couldn't say about Harumi.
She was ready to turn around and run away from here. They will be furious when they find out. And of course the responsibility will be on her, not the man.
She must've forced him! Threatened him! Brainwashed him!
- This is a bad idea, Lloyd - she stated, playing with her hair, not daring to look at him.
- They were going to find out anyway.
- You could've just told them right away - she said in accusing tone.
Lloyd couldn't deny that, but he was way too scared to do it before. What's done is done. They must've face it right now, because the running away option seemed surreal to him right now.
Although he had to admit that he was at fault for getting her into this situation.
He sighed.
- We know that you're there lovebirds, get out! - Lloyd heard Kai shouting.
There was no way out now.
He offered Harumi his arm, which she took and led her into the dinning room. After they had come in, the guests froze in shock.
The air becoming thick the second they saw her.
- Please, take your seats - said Master Wu, catching an eye contact with his nephew.
- I think we need to talk after the dinner, Lloyd - Nya stated, staring daggers at Harumi that refused to look at her. - I believe you owe us an explanation.
Lloyd gulped, sitting down next to his wife.
After a while of awkward silence they began to eat and the conversations about less serious topics filled the room.
Harumi didn't dare to speak, not wanting to start a fight. She must've admit that the food tasted amazing. She also noticed the chicken that seemed unusually interested in her, poking her leg every now and then. She smiled to herself. This situation was so ridiculous, it felt unreal.
...
When the dinner ended she found herself on the outside of the Monastery, looknig around the yard. Then she got closer to one of the fences at the end of a cliff. She rested her arms on it, looking up at the stars. They were much more visible than they were in the city, reminding her of a nightsky in one of these small villages where she lived when her father was still a farmer at the rice fields.
The girl rested her head on her arms, overwhelmed with today's experiences.
- What are you doing here? - she heard Lloyd's soft voice from behind. He walked up to her and also leaned on the fence. The situation felt all too familiar.
- Thinking.
- About my conversation with the team? Because if it's that, just remeber that you're my wife now, I'm on your side - he sounded so serious about it, Harumi snickered.
- Good - she just said, smiling.
They stared at the stars together. At least Harumi did, since she felt Lloyd's gaze piercing through her.
- Is it true that you made my dad think about you as his daughter? - he finally asked. That caught her off guard.
- Is that really what you want to talk about now?
- I'm interested - Lloyd said, curious.
- Yes, I did. Since I lost my parents I've been seeing him as a father figure. Probably, because I believed that his protection will ensure me safety. He was the one I saw as my hero. I also thought that you were not strong enough to call yourself his son. It got me thinking that I will be much better on that "position" - she stopped there before continuing.
- After he got out of my control, during his reign, I decided the best solution would be making him think of me as his child, so it would be easier for him to murder you and for me to accomplish my childhood desire. Then... he lost, so I turned to Overlord and treated Garmadon as a failure, just like I did with you for not being powerful enough to stop the Devourer...
- That's so messed up - he said, seeming disgusted. Harumi lowered her head.
- And now? You attacked the Overlord when he started to torture my father more painfully... was that..?
- No! Well... maybe, I'm not sure, it's just... do you really think that if I want to grow and be a better person I would walk up to somebody that I brainwashed into thinking that he has to murder his only son and be like "Hi dad, what's for dinner tonight?" - she said, putting an arm on Lloyd's shoulder. Despite her playful tone, her eyes remained regretful.
- I'm fully aware that what I've done was awful and so... cruel. That's why I decided to back away from your family's life. To give you all a chance to build a true, healthy bond with each other - Harumi confessed being more insecure than Lloyd has ever seen her.
- This should've never happened - she added, whispering.
Lloyd bit his lip.
She matured overtime, not stuck in her emotions anymore, he noticed. She also seemed to finally understand people around her and herself aswell.
She learned empathy. And to be honest, somewhere in the back of his head, Lloyd couldn't help feeling proud of her.
Not knowing what to say, he decided to drop the topic, ready to rethink her words later, on his own.
- I wish you well, Lloyd. I really do - Harumi declared. - I'm sorry that you have to be stuck in this loveless marrige. I should've known better before signing up the documents.
He didn't comment on that.
- We should get going, it's getting late - Lloyd simply said, ignoring her statement.
...
After the goodbyes with the team, Lloyd and Harumi went to his car that stayed downstairs in the driveway. He opened the door for her and got to the driver's seat. She sighed.
- What did they say? - she asked him.
- Well... it's hard for them to understand my decision, but they promised to treat my wife with respect - him calling her his wife made Harumi shake her head. It just reminded her that it really happened. They're stuck together for eternity. Or at least to the moment she dies, because he will most definitely live longer, just think about his uncle.
- Media probably won't be so polite. I can already imagine Gayle Gossip wanting to interrogate us in her studio - Harumi said, thinking about how ridiculous their situation must seem from the third person's view. - Aren't you afraid that citizens will stop trusting you?
- I thought about it, but... - he didn't end the sentence, focusing on the road. He had enough of stress for today.
Harumi didn't push him further. He deserved to rest after the team meeting, so they just stayed in the awkward silence.
- I would really like some coffee - she was the first one to break it.
- Harumi it's middle of the night, you won't sleep.
- I can get latte, it has more milk than coffe - she said. - And evil doesn't sleep anyway.
- You're childish - he stated, but smiled to himself at her comment.
- You love it.
Lloyd sighed.
- You won... we can stop at the petrol station.
- Yey - she giggled, excited.
- But you pay for it - he said, making Harumi groan.
- You are no gentleman, Garmadon - she crossed her arms dramatically and Lloyd chuckled.
...
Harumi laid on Lloyd's chest, her cheek pressed to where his heart was.
- I don't believe that it's a loveless marrige - he said. - I do care for your well-being. After all you're about to be my children's mother.
Harumi pulled herself up on her elbows, taking in his features hidden in the dark.
- Yeah, but marrige is also about romantic love, and there is no physical attraction.
- Really, because I've been told that my charm is irresistable - he said teasingly.
- And I must say, that you yourself are quite gorgeous, mrs. Garmadon.
- Oh, shut up - Harumi hit him with a pillow, which made Lloyd chuckle.
- I don't want to sleep yet - she stated.
- Well, I told you not to buy that coffee - he reminded her.
- Pff, you enjoyed it too.
- Fair enough. What do you want to do then?
Harumi smiled awkwardly and hid her face in his shoulder. Lloyd started playing with her hair.
- What's on your mind, wifey? - he asked.
- You know - the girl mumbled, making Lloyd smile and shake his head in disbelief.
- There is no physical attraction - he teased her.
- I hate you.
They stayed in comfortable silence for a while, Lloyd still moving his fingers though her hair gently. He stopped when Harumi pushed herself up a little, a mischievous glint in her eyes.
- Think about how mad my past self would be right now if she knew that I married you.
Lloyd rose his eyebrow, waiting for her to be more specific.
Harumi's face turned serious.
- No Lloyd, there was never anything between us - she rose her voice, staring at him in pride.
Two can play the game, Harumi.
He flipped their position so that he was on top now, a weird sensation going through him at the thought of bossing her around.
- Why not let me quieten you down, Quiet One? - he whispered to her before merging their lips together.
Harumi grinned into the kiss that lasted a few seconds before he pulled back.
They looked at each other smiling. Then Lloyd put his head on her chest listening to the soothing rhythm of her heartbeat, feeling her hands carefully stroking his hair.
Harumi had to admit that something about his proximity felt healing.

-The writers really said "Giving Cole the hereto love interest we gave everyone else? Nah he's not even gonna TALK to Vania" (who I need to make fan art cause I love her design)
-WHO WAS GONNA TELL ME THE CLOSEST WE GET TO LGBT+ REP IS GARMADON AND HIS NEWS CAMERAMAN BOYFRIEND VINNY (they will get fan art cause I swear Vinny and Garmadon did the crack ship before it was popular)
-They're gonna need so much therapy
-Let them sleep, please.
-The ending was really sweet and I think it wrapped the show up well, I'm kinda sad there's a new show coming out cause it means these characters are gonna be going through more shit (kinda) but I'm also really excited cause more Ninjago you know!
-I'm just gonna hope they take Harumi to a psyche ward or something to help her through some shit cause yo ca NOT tell me she's like 100% yet
-Honestly epilogue HC's coming soon same with fanart cause I still love the show even if they're is none left to watch
-Garmadon still owns my entire heart I love him so much
I'm not dead btw, just dying final tests are happening and shit and I'm literally dying and drowning in work (Gel electrophoresis is a bitch and she's fucking me so hard) I've got less than a month of this shit left till summer break, thank the gods. Anyway yeah hopefully art soon but I could also just deadass die again so???

Arin literally just broke a thick branch by throwing a rock at it. Without transferring spinjitzu to it, plus he hit egalt in the face (sorry but i feel like he deserved it)

AGENT JAY WALKER?!?!!!! WHAAAAT A SURPRISE!! HE HAS A GUN!! HE- HE POINTS A GGUN AT BONZLE!!!!
[Thursday, april 4th] (Ep. 8 ↓)
First of all, I know it came out on us netflix today. I'm avoiding tumblr, twitter and insta until the last two eps aired tomorrow. Which won't matter to you but it does to me. Alright, now into the ep.
The bloodmoon is actually pretty tbh
Wyldfyre is in denial over Rontu and Egalt being stone now lol
You know, Kai is right- he only managed to do the rising dragon strike once. That doesn't mean he knows how to use it
GAWDD LLOYD- I JUST WANNA HUG YOU
"The equipment known as Zane" AHAHAH
By the way, why has Galandarias orb thingy have so many cracks? I don't think that's good, to be honest. oH IT'S EVEN TAPED TOGETHER
Hi Jay
God, he's so boreddd by his job
OOO THAT'S FUNKY, SPRITE- Wait, he knew about his powers??
Rip Zane. Will there ever be a season where you don't get deactivated?
O- wait, SELF DESTRUCTION?! Oh, at least Zane was smart enough to leave the mech before they exploded
Wait, what. What happened to Jay?? And Sprite?
CLOUD KINGDOM, HIII
HIII WOLF MASKS YOU LOOK SO COOL IN 3D- I DON'T THINK I EVER MENTIONED THAT
So.. Jordana knows magic? To control the orb? Cool. No, genuinely- I'm impressed
RIP BOUNTYY- WILL YOU EVER NOT BE DESTROYED IN A SEASON? RIP ARIN AND RIYU AND LLOYD AND NYA
Oh that's not a good spot to crash. Poor Kai id left to take care of the two new girls
God, Lloyd, maybe stop saying you're safe or you'll probably crash through the ground one day too
I wouldn't call that flying but whatever floats your boat, Arin
SORA AND WYLDFYRE MINI BONDING-
Rip Bounty fr this time
Oh what a cute mushroom
Ohhh it's equally cute on the inside
That box was in Lloyd's visions, right? So this doesn't feel like a good idea
THE BOX IS COMFY?! Doesn't look like it
Ah, yes. I know that. It's so hard to do things while being watched
I KNEW IT'S A BAD IDEA WITH THE BOX
OH GREAT, IMPERIUM TECH. Jordana is actually starting to do things now? About time. We're pretty much close to the end of the first half of the season now so.. Yeah
Why does Arin immediately think the others died??
[Friday, april 5th] (Ep. 9 ↓)
The environments are beautiful
OHH TINY RAS STUCK IN A HOLE
Oh? Was that when he met his master??
Cool, telling Cinder to commit property damage
WYLDFYRE RIP- oh nvm, kai caught her
Did I already mention that I love the Climber Mech?
VISIOOON TIMEEE you poor, poor baby, lloyd-
OH THAT'S ARINS CAR BUGGY THING, WHATEVER IT'S CALLED
Coooole, what did you doo? WHY IS THE MUSHROOM SHAKING?!
Okay, trapped exists. Alright..
She doesn't appear to be the smartest wizard
OH, NOW RIYU CAN FLY? BUT NOT WHEN THEY FELL EARLIER?! Alriiight..
YASS FIGHT SCENE !!
"Don't tell Lloyd" god, she's still as motivated for training as she was in s1, huh? Lmfaooo
OOO JORDANA IS EVIL BUT STILL USES A SEATBELT. VERY RESPONSIBLE OF HER
HAH! GET SMACKED INTO THE WALL
"Why are you in that box?" → "What's your elemental power? The power to not understand sarcasm?" I LOVE YOU BONZLE
OMG RIYU ON THE ROOF OF THE CAR
AND ARIN BEING A HORRIBLE DRIVER AHAHHA
They look silly in those outfits ahah but something looks off about Kai's hair,,
... I would really not trust that wizard lady. Those are some weird objects and she's just tHROWING THEM ON ZANE AND COLE WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD-
omg he just turned into a cute little pupp- "At least you're adorable" → "I'm always adorable" ily cole you're my fav for a reason, i can't disagree
Ah, Kai's hair is sHORTER NOW! THAT'S WHY IT'S LOOKING SO OFF
EUPHRASIAAA HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN A BIT
EHEHEH CINDER AND JORDANA BICKERING
OOOOOOHH HE'S PLAYING INTO ARIN'S DOUBTS, THAT'S NOT COOL!!
Smth tells me that weren't actually his parents but maybe Nya and Lloyd-
(Ep. 10 ↓)
AHAHHA I WAS RIIGHT- IT'S LLOYD AND NYA-
Cinder looks so smug
Oh no, this isn't gonna go well.
Cole. Cole, you're the EARTH NINJA. JUST USE YOUR EARTH POWERS MAYBE TO ADD MORE LAND TO THE CLOUD KINGDOM OR SOMETHING???
EHEHEHEHEH WYLDFYRE PUT HIS HAIR ON FIRE
HAH! HERE'S YOUR PAYBACK, CINDER!! GET TRAPPED, IDIOT!
O- rip bonzle :(
NOO, KAI
YAAAY, NYA, LLOYD AND ARIN AND RIYU ARRIVED JUST IN TIME
Hehe how they're playing with Cinder for the mask
YAAAA KAI AND THE RISING DRAGON STRIKE !!!!
NoOOOO, KAIII-
Ew, I don't like the way you look for some reason
Euphrasia, I don't think you can do much with your power- wait what, was that her or Zane and Cole?
OOO MORE SIBLING FLASHBACKS AND NYA CAN DO THE RISING DRAGON STRIKE-
Vision of the fire source dragon symbol? And Lloyd's sword being broken?
NONONONO, WE'RE NOT GONNAA SEAL KAI IN THERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES !!!!
SORA HELPING ARIN AWW-
NooOOOO KAI- IS- IS HE LOST NOW?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wait, what? Where's the dojo now?? Oo, Jordana in the background- oh no- What happened to her????
OHHH THE TOURNAMENT WAS MENTIONED
LLOYD AND COLE HUG WAAAAAAAAHHH I'M CRYINGGGG
NOOO KAII IS GOOONE FOR REAL???!
No, it's not me with tears in my eyes, it's you !!
KAAAAAIIII- HIS SHOULDER PADS MOVE
OoOOO KAI AND BONZLE BONDING NOW?

Hi I once again forgot my Tumblr existed how silly of me 😙 Anyways, I was briefly out of my Aphmau phase but as with most fandoms, the Aphmau phase truly never leaves you. So I'm back in this bitch again and feel like talking about Dante more because he's the only Aphmau character I care about anymore <3 Jk but also Dante is my everything so whateves.
Anyways so like I think about Dante and Gene's brother relationship a normal amount (wrong) and it just like??? Bothers me that we didn't get a more complicated relationship between them in Mystreet like we did in MCD. And maybe I'm just a slut for angst but I loved the brotherly angst between them. Also Gene's a big bitch and I firmly don't believe he should've gotten a redemption arc in Mystreet. Or at the very least it should've been done better cuz how are these people just okay with Gene so quickly after all that shit he did in highschool :/ Keep in mind I haven't finished watching Phoenix Drop High yet cuz I'm a lazy hoe but I still have a good idea about the stuff he's done to people as a Shadow Knight. Honestly, Zane and Aaron have a right to not like him and watching S3 of Mystreet I didn't really appreciate how they made Zane and Aaron out to be kinda bad just cuz they didn't want to besties with Gene like Aphmau. I don't know if that's actually what they were trying to go for but it just gave they kinda vibe off to me and I don't like it oof. This is like one of the few times I think I can see myself defending Aaron's ass cuz like shit I wouldn't forgive Gene that quick either regardless of how genuine his apology is. Cuz I know from personal experience that it's hard to just forgive someone after the shit they put you through :/
And also like, I think it's really stupid how Dante just doesn't know about the stuff that Gene did back in highschool. And I blame that on the fact that Mystreet as a series has a bad habit of dumbing down the MCD characters for no good reason. Garroth is a supreme example of this with his MS and MCD counterparts being almost unrecognizable from one another. It just really boggles me how Dante could just not have an inkling of what's going on especially when his own friends were being targeted by Gene and his wannabe mean girl posse. It's a fucking stupid writing decision in my opinion and only further proves how dirty they did Dante's character in Mystreet. God I might be taking this a little too seriously but as a Dante lover I can't help myself. I will be a hardcore Dante defender even in death broskis.
Now honestly here's what I personally would have done to really reflect the complex and strained brother relationship that Gene and Dante have in MCD into Mystreet. Gene is still a big bitch in highschool to everyone but Dante actually knows about this. He's not dumb to the fact that his older brother is pretty much part of a gang. And that's because Gene doesn't treat Dante the good at all either. Yet Gene would have the audacity to say and act like he's such a great big brother in front of other people cuz he's a dickhole like that. But Dante keeps claiming that Gene's a good brother and says he looks up to Gene anyways. Why would he even do that though? Because Dante could either just be saying that to stay on Gene's good side or he just genuinely thinks that Gene isn't hurting him at the very least because Gene is his big bro and big bros would never do anything to hurt their little bros, right? I mean just imagine for years that Dante knows Gene isn't a good person but is led to believe that at least Gene wouldn't be mean to him. Imagine Gene graduates from highschool and moves out of the house and Dante still is able to think highly of Gene. Imagine one day, Dante actually has a crisis regarding Gene caused unintentionally by his friends who thought that Dante didn't know about what Gene was doing as a Shadow Knight. They realize that's not the true issue at hand here and feel awful once they come to the truth faster than Dante himself. Imagine Dante having a hard time being convinced that Gene was treating him horribly because Dante doesn't want to believe that such a thing happened to him because then that would just be too much for him to process and accept. And then imagine the brothers seeing each other in S2 after not talking for years as at that point Dante understood that what Gene did to him wasn't right.
That's the type of conflict that I think Mystreet would've benefited from. And it would bring so much more depth to Dante and Gene because again, they were done dirty in Mystreet and I will always die mad about how their interesting and complicated dynamic was stolen from them in Mystreet. I have like so many other ideas like this not just for Dante and Gene but for the entirety of Mystreet as a whole. I literally have a whole Google Doc detailing so much shit I would rewrite to make Mystreet a better series which goes to show how stupidly passionate I am about this damn Minecraft roleplay from my childhood 💀 Anyways, that stuff in my Google Doc can be for another time cuz I don't feel like typing anything else right now lol.

My thoughts on ninjago ships!
Just finished dragons rising and wanted to give my thoughts on the ships cuz that’s what holds my attention the most lol. I have both canon ships and fanon ships that i see a lot.
Nya/Jay
I literally love them with all my heart! They work so well together! All of their little interactions just make my heart happy. Their dancing in prime empire, their fist date in season 1, Jay’s proposal, and every other little thing. They are the the best ninjago ship in my opinion, but they are not perfect. I fucking hate the love triangle in season 3! It is so stupid. It comes out of nowhere! I, in general, hate love triangles but this is the worst. Not only was it entirely unnecessary, but it makes all three characters look bad. It makes Nya look indecisive, jay look hella whiny, and Cole look like a jack ass who only wants Nya so that Jay can’t have her. Back to the positives tho. I think the shows writing is at its best when their ship is a focal point. For a long time, sky bound was my favorite season( I know I know). It often gets a lot of flack for the ending, but that is one of my favorite parts. The idea that after all is said and done, only the two of them get to remember this massive Journey makes it all the more special. It’s about them, for them, and only they get to remember it. Seabound quickly took the top spot as soon as I started it(I honestly don’t know if this is a hot take or not, but Nya’s character arc was just so good!). The finale made me sob so uncontrollably, it was a little scary. Jay not getting a real goodbye was so heartbreaking. Seeing how content Jay was after they saved her despite the fact that he was actively being sent to prison is the kind of love I want!
Zane/Pixal
What can I say other than the fact that they are perfect. I mean they literally share a heart for Christ’s sake! If anything, they are to perfect and can be a bit boring, but that is barely a complaint. I will say that I didn’t like how long Pixal was trapped in Zane’s head, but other than that I love them. That scene in Compatible was so unnecessary but so fucking good!
Kai/Skylor
I really like them together. They don’t have enough screen time together which makes it heard for their relationship to develop. Honestly, Skylor in general is underdeveloped. She should have just joined the main cast after season 4. They have good chemistry, have cute little interactions, and are adorable to watch. I just wish she was around more. I was hoping that something more would happen with them by the end of crystallized but nothing really happened. I hope she comes back for dragons rising and has a good storyline, and hopefully some resolution with Kai.
Lloyd/Harumi
No. Fucking no. I hate Harumi. This ship is so dumb in the context of the show. Let me stop now before this turns into a whole rant ( a Harumi rant is for another day).
Lloyd/Akita
I’m actually very fond of these two. I will admit that they don’t get to spend enough time together, but it is still really cute! I hope they find each other again in dragons rising.
Cole/Vania
While I think Cole is definitely queer coded, still find these two cute. Maybe Cole is bi? I also like the idea that Vania is non-binary. Very cute together and I hope that they are endgame
Misako/Garmadon
What can I say? I’m a sucker for these two. They are cute old people who admittedly have a LOT of issues to work through.
Misako/Wu
No. Just no. I honestly hate wu and the idea of him and Misako being a thing is weird. It is wrong on both parts. Just all around stop.
Non/Questionably Canon
Any combo of Kai/Jay/Zane/Cole/Lloyd
While there is nothing inherently wrong with shipping these characters, it just gives me the ick. The fact that they all call each other brothers makes it weird. And it’s different with Nya cuz it’s not like Jay calls her his sister. And shipping any of them with Lloyd is icky for the obvious age reasons, I mean they literally knew him as a 10 year old. But while I don’t like any of these ships, Cole/Kai is the least upsetting.
Pythor/Aspheera
They are funny I guess, but pythor is def gay.
Pythor/Skales
Skales is an honest man and a loving husband who would never cheat on Selma thank you very much!
Wu/Faith
I can 100% see it. There is obviously an age difference. But maybe if faith comes back as an older women after some weird time thing related to the merge or something, then it could definitely work.
Dareth/Gayle Gossip
They are cute I guess, but they are beyond an afterthought
Ronin/Nya
Gross. Just stop
Dareth/Ronin
I can’t explain it, but I love them so much! It’s just hilarious and makes me laugh. It’s cute too.
Kruncha/Nuckal
They have been a married couple for 1000 years. They know each other so we’ll and complete each other. Perfect. 100%
That’s all I have. If you have any other ships that I didn’t mention or a ship you would like me to expand on them let me no.

Desert Rose | Romance Club
Ask me anything with Amy G.
Desert Rose | Romance Club · 29 Dec at 7:05 am
Source: VK
(translate by chrome)
❓ What was Zane’s childhood like and his relationship with his parents? And did the death of his father influence him and become the reason for his reckless youth?
❗Zane loves his family very much. The relationship between his mom and dad was an example of true love for him. Speaking of his father, Zayn adored him and he will always be proud of his father. But you will learn more in the future :)
❓ Back at the end of the first season, Yasmine mentions that she loves Mr. Darcy, and since then I've been wondering which of the RP characters do you think is most like Mr. Darcy? And in the same spirit of loving literature, what other books did Yasmin love as a child?
❗ Hmm, on the way with Adil, Yasmin thinks that she has found her version of Darcy - a cold-blooded Bedouin. But I think Zayn can also be like Mr. Darcy to her. She likes Notre Dame, Oliver Twist, The Thorn Birds, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Little Women.
❓ 1. What pranks did Adil, Rajab and Madi do when they were growing up? And did they immediately agree to the rebel’s plan with Adil? 2. Yasmine is one of my favorite main characters and I love that we see her growth throughout the story! What inspired you to create a GG like her? And who does she look more like, her father or her mother? 3. Do you have any plans/ideas for your next story after completing the RP?
❗ 1. Along Adil's path you will learn more, but they loved to joke with Ali) 2. I talked a lot with my Muslim friends, read discussions. I tried to create a kind of lonely girl who lives in her dreams and tries to build her path, her life. 3. Yes 😉
❓ 1. Whenever Yasmin introduces Adil, she introduces him bare-chested 😅 (most of the time)... is this intentional? Even in the heartbreaking cutscene of the last update 🙈 2. The musical animation in the season finale is another feature of the RP ...how did you come up with this idea...? It's like ending the season with a bang. 3. I know this will be a spoiler 😅🤣... but can you tell me if Mr. Bat will confess his love one day?
❗ 1. Haha, I knew that the players miss Adil so much, so I wanted to give them a gift 😁 why was he naked in the dream? This is a spoiler) 2. My technical designer and I decided to do this - we think it's sort of the final act of every season finale. 3. He will do it 😁😈 or I will hit him.
❓Have you ever encountered writer's block, and if so, how do you deal with it?
❗ Yes, of course. I try to calm down by writing something funny or stupid just to relax, watching cartoons or something emotional and inspiring. For example, musicals. Speaking about my work: I always remember that I have to make people happy and this inspires me very much) Good luck and believe in yourself! ❤️
❓ 1. How does Jack feel about Adil? I'm guessing he feels pain over his "death", but were they close to each other as children? 2. When did Cindy decide to become a model? Did someone notice her or maybe she was inspired by a famous model? 3. If you could include one of your characters in another CR story, who would you choose and what story do you think they would fit well in? 4. I love that you also write beautiful songs, you are so talented. Can you tell us if you plan to write more songs for Garden of Eden or other stories?
❗ 1. Jack loves Adil, Adil has always been his role model, but on the other hand Jack thought that their father loved Adil more and Jack hated it. Jack is the only one (not counting Yasmin on Adil's path) who knows the real Adil, his soft side. 2. Her mother wanted her to become a model. Cindy also thought that the only talent she had was her face and body :( She needed to make money, so she decided to become a model. 3. Moonborn perhaps? I want to see Zane and Victor fight over coffee and tea 😁 4. Thanks, who knows 😼
❓ 1. If they had a choice, what dream place would every LL in RP want to visit? 2. Can you give us some BTS facts (Behind The Scenes)? How do you come up with lyrics? What is the brainstorming process?
❗ 1. Zane - New Zealand; Mustafa - Lisbon, Cindy - New York, Adil - Paris, Jack - Iceland, Said - Prague, Jaffar just dreams of being able to travel) 2. Well, I'm trying to imagine what I want to say in my song, how it will influence the ending season, after that I start writing and finally singing, but honestly my voice is a terrible version of a Disney princess, so I... I'm glad Alisha sang my songs 😁 Thank you ❤️
❓ 1. Was Mustafa inspired by someone you know in real life, or maybe a fictional character you admire? 2. Are there any traits in Yasmin that you would like to have? 3. When will we see Rebel the cat again? I miss him.
❗ 1. No, but I just wanted to create a kind person, a person who will destroy the stereotypes of the spoiled Arab guy that GG has to be with. I wanted to create a good brother who takes care of his sister because I know some girls don't have a good relationship with their brothers :( 2. Maybe her inner warmth? I'm more cold-blooded, less sociable, like to plan everything. She is more spontaneous and naive. Sometimes I wish I had these qualities. 3. You will know 😼 meow 😈
❓ 1. My first question is related to the Garden of Eden: you wrote the lyrics to Starfall, it’s an amazing song. How did this collaboration begin? 2. I was wondering if you have time to play any other KR stories in your free time? If so, which one holds a special place in your heart?
❗ 1. Nastya, the author of ES, is one of my friends, so I am always ready to help her, working with her is always fun and inspiring. I love Luna's story, we wanted to create a song that showed her pain, her struggle with her own triggers and nightmares. That’s why I wrote: “The window is open - I see the sky.” Sometimes we are so worried, so wounded, that we can’t even see the sky, even if dozens of windows are open. We don’t see the world, pain blinds us, but it’s important not to give up. 2. Yes, but now I don't have enough time :( I liked ES, Psi, KPS - the new stories I played - Moonborn, LI, Sails in the Mist and Arcanum are my favorites too! But honestly, I think that all the stories are good ❤️
❓Which character in RP was the most difficult to write? Zane? Buahaha
❗ Poor Zane! Sometimes it's the simplest! Sometimes everyone is very bad and doesn’t want to communicate with my muse 😁
❓ Since this is a topic I'm passionate about, what inspired you to write a story about rebellion and speaking truth to power?
❗ I was inspired by the stories of the Bedouins, culture, political past of Morocco, Arabic fairy tales. I also love Les Miserables (“Les Miserables”), and I even had the idea of ​​writing a novella based on this book.
❓ 1. What genres of books and films does Zane like? Are there any specific names? 2. Why did Zayn choose fashion as a career? 3. If you had to play as Yasmin, which path would you choose? Disobedience or dreaminess and Child of the city or flower of the desert? 4. What do you find most difficult and easiest when writing a RP?
❗ 1. He just loves good books) good from his point of view, of course) For example, novels for women are not his strong point. He loves Machiavelli, The Scarlet Letter, The Financier, The Godfather) 2. You will find out ;) 3. I play every path during tests. 4. Sometimes I hate writing scenes like “he came... she looked...” - just descriptions. I really love writing scenes with LL. And I love some of the story scenes because I know that every scene has its own meaning;) I hope when the story ends, you will see the whole thing) And of course sometimes it is difficult to write about culture, because, well, you know, there are many trigger moments, especially if we are talking about religion. I'm trying to figure everything out because I don't want to hurt anyone.
❓ 1. Which path (dreamy/rebellious) do you think best suits each LL personality? 2. Can you tell us some interesting fact about Jack? 3. Which LL would you like to have an affair with? 4. What inspired you to write this story?
❗ 1. I think that every path can be interesting for every LL. 2. He tried to act like a brother and called Adil's classmate (he imitated his voice), but unfortunately his mission failed 😁 3. I want to have a harem. 4. Morocco's political past, 2000s, Arabic tales, Bedouin stories.
❓ My question: could you tell me more about Jaffar? For example, what are his hobbies or favorite things to do? Does he have any other family members besides the father he mentioned? What did he do before he came to work for Yasmin's father?
❗ He loves to run, watch nature, loves Moroccan culture and cuisine. Yes, there is) you will learn more through the branch with him) and you will learn more about his past.
❓ 1. Can you share interesting facts about Mustafa? 2. Will it be possible to adopt the Rebel cat?
❗ 1. Ha, Mustafa was forced to play with dolls with his sisters :))) he hated it, but he is a good caring brother 😁 2. Who knows 😉
❓ 1. Which paths are best to choose with each character? Or just choose what we want?2. Is it possible to choose one path or balance stats? 3. What are Adil and Yasmin’s favorite books??
❗ 1. You can choose whatever you want) There will be endings for balance and the same for each stat. 2. Adil: Hemingway, Night in Lisbon, American Tragedy, Red and Black, Germinal. Yasmin: Notre Dame, Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, The Thorn Birds.
❓ 1. Will Yasmin's father accept Adil as his son-in-law? 2. Can we expect a wedding with Adil at the end? 3. Why didn’t Adil tell the truth to Yasmin or Jack earlier, after his memory returned?
❗ 1. You will find out 😼 2. 😉 3. Because he is a closed person, it is difficult for him to tell everything that is on his soul, he needs time to realize. He wanted to tell Yasmin, but did not find the right moment. If we talk about Jack: he thought he was dead, realized that he was alive when he found medical documents and saw his brother's handwriting.
❓ If you could give all LLs or any other character a superpower, what would you give them and why? 🦸🦹‍♀️😁
❗ Hmm) I wish everyone to become wizards, like in my beloved Harry Potter. 😈 for example, Adil would talk to snakes 😈
❓ 1. Said’s favorite food, colors, hobbies? 2. What attracted him to Yasmin or what attracted her to him? Maybe what is his love language?
❗1. Said loves nature, loves to walk and look around, loves animals, especially cats and parrots) 2. Said loves kindness, hates indifference, that's why he liked Yasmin - she can be rude or something like that, but on the other hand, with him she tries to be kind and helpful. Speaking of her, she was captivated by his personality. He is always there to help her.
❓ 1. What do you think could have happened if the romantic paths had not been closed and the player dated Jack and Adil at the same time? How might they both react to this? 2. What is the reason for the distance between Yasmin and her father? He seems to love her no matter what, but there is still an invisible wall between them. 3. What is your favorite character trait about Yasmin? 4. Can balancing the Desert Flower and Child of the City stats lead to a happy ending?
❗ 1. I think they were really hurt. Adil could not start an affair with the girl his brother loves. But if you dated Adil, but decided to break up with him, and you have a very close relationship with Zayn, then... an interesting path awaits you 😁 2. You will find out. 3. Her inner warmth and the fact that she is not afraid to seem naive) 4. Of course, don’t worry.
❓ 1. Can we expect more romantic content with Sayid in season 3? Will he then have a full-fledged path or will it be more of an affair on the side? 2. Will we find out who Zuleika’s child is in the story? 3. Is something going on with Rajab and Amira??
❗ 1. Yes) and with him you will have a final. 2. Her baby is just her baby, but maybe if I have enough space we can help her meet her son. 3. Oh, they are so passionate together 🔥
❓ 1. What research did you have to do regarding Morocco, Brazil and the medical history of the virus? 2. Can you tell us a little more about Sefer's political parties (views, foundations, etc.) 3. This is related to the last question. What does Adil's rebellion mean to ordinary people in Morocco, and was his character inspired by any real-life Moroccan events?
❗ 1. I read a lot about the history of Morocco, talked with friends from Morocco, watched films, etc. I also read about Brazil and tried to show it in different ways. But because of the plot and some things that will work later, I had to change something. For example, the brothers have non-Brazilian names and surnames, but... this was necessary for something that you will learn about later) 2. Conservative. There were different parties - liberal, democratic, but now everything has simply collapsed. They also behave badly with the Bedouins :( 3. He was inspired by the Bedouins and their stories. Ordinary people love the Rebel, they believe in him. And the Bedouins adore him. He helps a lot. And he will help more.
❓ 1. What is Cindy's favorite color? 2. Can you tell me one of Cindy's happy childhood memories? 3. Is there any place/country in the world that Cindy would like to visit with Yasmin?
❗ 1. Dark blue, fuchsia, yellow, orange. 2. Cindy loved to dance and was so happy when her mother bought her a doll - not a Barbie (she was too expensive), but a very beautiful ballerina. It was the best Christmas present. Cindy was truly happy. 3. I think she would like to visit New York!)
❓ 1. What do you enjoy most about writing scenes/lines for Zayn? Is it as fun as it seems to get inside his head? 2. What sparked Zane's passion/skill for tango when it is so contrary to his harsh personality? Is there a chance he'll try to teach Yasmin? 👀 3. If you could take home one of LL's gifts for Yasmin (like Adil's elephant pendant, Zayn's bracelet/necklace, Cindy's necklace, Mustafa's stuffed watermelon, etc. - I forgot so much 😭), what would you choosed?
❗ 1. I like writing Zayn's journey - I like his emotions, I like how he tries to figure everything out, to control his life, but she... this wild creature ruins everything 😁 soon you will see my favorite scenes with Zayn. I hope you will enjoy. Honestly, sometimes I laugh. For example, when I wrote the scene of Yasmin dancing, I laughed - I imagined Zayn hiding behind a palm tree 😁 2. He will tell us about tango) will he dance with her - who knows, maybe 😼😉 3. I will choose everything and, maybe Yasmin's camel toy. 😁
❓ Will we meet our mother-in-law in Italy? How and when did Gurub fall in love with Adil? Does helping her have plot significance?
❗ You’ll find out 😉 You’ll find out :) Well, yes, it’s better to help her :)
❓ I loved the interaction between Madi and Jaffar (despite the circumstances) - it was so fun to imagine them pitted against each other, trying to achieve the same goal.
❗ I also enjoyed writing their scenes 😁 Madi is one of my favorites)
❓ If you played, who would be your favorite?
❗ I think I would have a harem, but I'm married 😁
❓ Can Karo still become LL?
❗ Caroline has her own storyline) You will find out ;)
❓ Will we learn more about the past/relationship between Zayn and his tango partner? 👿
❗ Ha, yes, it will be so)
We thank Larisa M. for her help with the translation.

hiii hope ur doing okay also pls rest whenever you can!! btw def wanna request some jealous hcs for the ninja maybe one of the new ninja got a bit close to the ninjas gn!s/o if u wanna write this!
Would deff do this !! [I'm currently making a new ninja edit rn LMAO. Plus I didn't add Nya n Lloyd this time, I am sorry :( ]
Jealous Ninjas x gn reader [fluff]
Jealous....
Tumblr media
JAY !
At first, he would be shocked, then annoyed at how one of the 'new' ninjas would flirt with you. He would always say it was stupid, that they didn't even know you personally, but Jay would roll his eyes and huff in annoyance. You were his partner and he knew you well enough to know he could be jealous. He just didn't like seeing you get flirted up by someone who barely knew you. "I don't want you talking to them [your nickname]!" Jay pouted as you turned down another person's advances for dinner that night. You looked at him and smirked, making him squirm under your gaze.
"What? Do you have a problem with me speaking to other people?" You teased, knowing full well he had a thing about strangers flirting with you. He was so protective, and you loved that about him. "No! It's not that." Jay shook his head, taking your hand in his own. "It's just...you're my partner and I don't want you being near them," he explained. His frown deepened when you laughed at his statement, squeezing his hands gently before pulling out of his grasp. "You worry too much about it. I don't like them anyway" you assured him, smiling softly when he still frowned. "Really?" He asked, watching your smile widen. You nodded as he smiled back. "Well okay then. Just let me know if they hurt you, or anything, ok? Promise?" He insisted and you laughed again, nodding quickly. "I promise."
COLE !
Now Cole would never let you go near the 'new' ninja. No matter how hard they tried to flirt with you. He would probably tell them to fuck off and to stop flirting with you. And he had done it before. He always told them this, but this time they weren't listening. It was pretty obvious to everyone else that they liked you and were being extra nice to you. You were the only one who noticed his reaction to the 'new' ninja. When you saw him glaring at them every now and then when they interfered in what you guys were doing. You knew something was up, so you decided to talk to Cole and see if he could help you figure out what was wrong. You sat downside him, while he plays his game. "Cole?" "What," He said bluntly. Not even glancing away from his game. "Is everything okay? You seem upset." You asked. He sighed, before putting his controller down on the table. "I'm fine." He said, turning to face you. You raised an eyebrow at him. "No, you're not." You said. He groaned. "Don't laugh at me, okay?" He muttered, looking anywhere but at you. You smiled reassuringly at him. "Never, Cole." You said. He looked back up at you. "The 'new' ninja is getting a little bit close and flirting with you, and...I don't like it."
He whispered. Your eyes widened as you stared at him. Then you smiled, reaching over and ruffling his hair. "Cole, you are such a sweetheart." You cooed. His cheeks turned red as he ducked his head to hide his embarrassed blush. When he finally looked up at you again, you were still smiling at him. "Thanks for telling me." You said. He nodded. "But," you continued, taking both of his hands in yours. "If you ever need to talk about this, I am here. Okay?" You said softly. Cole nodded. "Okay." You grinned at each other and leaned forward to peck his cheek.
ZANE !
Zane would be confused cuz' he's never felt this kind of feeling before. Seeing the new ninja flirt and talk to you way differently than they talked to them made him confused. He felt, mad for some reason, he didn't want you talking to them. So he asked PIXAL about his emotions. "It seems that you're jealous of the 'new' ninja flirting and interacting with [reader]" She told him. "I am?" He couldn't deny that he thought that you were very attractive, but not as much as you were with him. He wanted all your attention to be on him, he didn't like seeing you around the new ninja when he was around, he didn't know why he was so upset about it but he was. "Yes, I don't know what it means but it seems that you care about your feelings more than logic dictates." Zane sighed, "I suppose I do. Can I ask why? Why does my heart feel this way towards them?" "I've been trying to find an answer. There are some things in our coding that affect our emotions. I believe one is when we see others interacting romantically. It's like watching a movie that's playing in your head. We can watch someone else and watch from the outside without ever being able to experience it in person. It may explain why you're so angry at these new ninja, even though they're not dating [reader]"
Zane nodded, "I understand." The next day Zane noticed something different. Whenever you interacted with another ninja they'd always try to get closer to you or touch you. Zane knew this wasn't right because you weren't interested in them, but every time he looked at them he just got upset. You walked around the monastery trying to find Zane. Kai had told you he was outside, training but he wasn't there. So you decided to check his room. You found him sitting at his desk staring out the window. "Hey Zane" He turned to face you, a small smile on his face. You smiled back as he stood up, walking over to you. You were standing only a few inches apart. "Hello Y/N, how may I help you?" His voice was soft and smooth as he spoke to you. "I wanted to check up on you. You've kinda been ignoring me for a few days so" You mumbled, and the room fell silent. Zane looked away from you for a moment and then back at you. "Oh, I'm sorry, please forgive me if my behavior has been quite rude. It's just..." He trailed off as his hand moved to yours and he began to intertwine your fingers together. "I've seen how the 'new' ninjas would flirt and touch you and I've been...jealous? Since." You frowned, "Is that why you've been avoiding me?" You said softly. Zane squeezed your hand lightly as he nodded. You giggled at his cute little expression, you cupped his cheek in your free hand and leaned in to give him a quick kiss on the lips. When you pulled away you saw he was smiling happily. "I love you and you only, no one else can change that" You whispered. Zane blushed bright red at your words, "Y/N..you don't mean that..." You laughed and shook your head. "Oh, I do! Now let's go get something to eat!"
KAI !
Kai is such a hothead that he can’t help himself from jumping into conclusions like this. He doesn’t know where it came from. It just kinda happened. When he sees the new ninjaflirting with you, he feels something in his heart twist, like an elastic band stretching dangerously tight. It’s so obvious. And yet, no one has said anything about it. They haven’t done anything either, not that he knows of. Except for maybe Cole and Zane who have been giving him weird looks lately, but even they haven’t said anything. Maybe he was just overreacting but there are other people besides him that are flirting with you. Why not say something? That way it wouldn’t feel as awkward when he eventually gets jealous too, which could happen at any moment. “Hey, Cole! I need your opinion on something.” Kai says gaining Col's attention. His friend looks at him curiously, but nods.
“I think I should go talk to reader about something.” Cole blinks and cocks his head to the side slightly. “Is this about the new ninjas?" Cole asked. The red ninja nods vigorously. Cole rolls his eyes, "Tell them about it, tell them that the new ninjas make you jealous" he tells Kai. “But… I don’t want to make things weird” Kai says, cole frowns, clearly not buying that answer. "You're already making everything weird." Kai sighs defeated, "Yeah okay, fine. I'll tell them." When he told you that he got jealous of the new ninjas you were confused."What do you mean you're jealous of them? Are you jealous they might take me away from you~" You teased. Kai groans "You know what? Forget it, forget it, forget it. Just forget that I ever mentioned that. Forget I ever brought it up!" He says looking everywhere else but you. You chuckle before leaning over and kissing him on the cheek. Kai's cheeks turn bright red and his eyes widened in surprise. He turns his head towards you, looking straight into your eyes, and leans closer. He closes the distance between you two by placing his lips softly against yours. Your breath catches and you immediately kiss back. When you pull apart, you see Kai's face light up with a smirk. His cheeks are dusted pink and his eyes glisten with happiness and affection. You smile back at him, feeling butterflies swirl around inside your stomach. You wrapped your arms around him and rested your head on his chest. Kai wraps his arms around you and smiles down at you. His expression softens and he gently kisses you on the forehead. "I'll never replace you" You mumbled. "Is it because I'm hot?" He asked smugly. You laughed "Well, yeah. But, more than that. I love you." You kissed his cheek again. "I love you too." He whispered.
