ninjago fame hcs

- lloyd, kai and jay make sturniolo triplets videos.

- zane is usually quiet in interviews but in every interview he’ll have one of the most if not the most funny thing you’ll hear.

- i think i said it before but skylor does emma chamberlain type content. (the new style)

- morro made a video like the iconic scarlett johansen tiktok “i’ve seen the edits.”.

- nya has no shame and will tag the others on anything even if it’s not necessarily appropriate.

- cole watched popular shows/movies and then has a live reaction on twitter.

- lloyd makes so many trauma jokes on tiktok that at some point people started to worry.

- the first time kai was trending world wide on twitter was because he had one of those rain photoshoots.

- pixal and zane only post when it’s pictures of them together or pictures of their shared garden.

- jay didn’t open twitter for a week or so and then he came back to everyone asking if a genie will ever be a villian for the future and he panicked but pretended to not have seen anything.

- nya publicly has a crush on maya hawke and she doesn’t hide it she fuels the fire when people ask if she in fact does.

- morro in the early times before he understood social media one time he accidentally twitted “fuck?” and it’s his most liked tweet.

- kai purposely likes edits of him because 1, it rises his ego and 2, he enjoys seeing people panic when they realise he saw it.

- cole draws amazingly to the point that his fans convinced him to make an art account on instagram.

Okay so I spent a lot of nights just making SP items via coffee and curry so I figured MC really likes the things he learns from Sojiro (especially with the trivia we get sometimes) and then fast forward late game with best girl Haru and I learn that she wants to have a little home-y cafe just like Sojiro’s and grow everything they sell organically and never have I wanted to date somebody so fAST– (I was already planning on romancing her and her link definitely didn’t disappoint for me.)

I’ve been playing Splatoon 3 and it’s so fun 

((

The clouds below rumbled and threatened rain upon the valley. She could feel it around her, the dropping pressure as the warm front pushed through, and the inevitable fall of water dropplets coating the vegetation.

Maya, in her dozing off, focused on every single one. They trickled down and bounced, some colliding with each other and some shattering into mist and cycling back up into the clouds.

It was a shame that it never rained on the monastery, what advantages would she have during training if it did, but then again the fire EMs powers would surely be dampened.

Speaking of, her mind wandered back to his odd behavor that day. During training he had excused himself claiming to be sick, in which Wu allowed, and the he didn't show up for lunch or dinner or even chores. Ray didn't allow her into his room despite how close she felt that had become as of late, which was even more odd.

Did she say something to him and made him upset? Maya made note to speak to him about it in the morning.

Falling deeper into sleep, her mind's consiousness slipped into lucidity. The dream before her she had many times before: a blue lit cave with strange markings that coiled around led her down to a gated opening. Within laid an unfathomably large serpent, its horns jutting like jagged yellow coral from its dark scaley head. Its eyes, however open, peered lifelessly towards her.

In her hand she held a stone that shimmered blue, the shape ever shifting between her fingers. Somehow she knew it belonged to the sleeping beast, and although she knew it wrong to return the stone, she felt as though it was calling for her.

Just as the thought to break in came to her, Maya felt the hairs on her neck stand up. Something was watching her, something large and unknown that loomed with an intent to attack.

Maya snapped awake fast enough to see a serpents tail twist its way into the shadowed rafters.

A serpentine, here? Wu had said anacondrai could turn invisible and despite their size, were very sneaky. If one had snuck out here and managed to get past everyone, that meant that it surely has had enough time to collect information and was on the move to get out.

"Oh no you don't," She spat and sprung up into the rafters.

The quiet nimble motions of the intruder became loud and scrambled as she skipped closer, its tail flicking around wildly as it attempted to throw her off. It dived between a beam and the roof, squirming as it squeezed its way into a small storage area.

Although being unable to see in the dark, she heared it and dropped down into the room just outside of it. Maya smirked triumphantly, knowing well that the room beyond the door was a dead end, albeit pitch black. "You're pretty dumb for a serpentine," she taunted, lighting a lamp and taking one of the sparring rods off the wall.

Confident in her combat abilities, she batted away the thought of getting backup and slid the door open. Many scrolls and boxes laid in piles amongst overflowing shelves, the yellowed paper flickering with the fire in the lamp. Maya eased her way in, eyes scanning the room as she went. This serpent could be anywhere, could be any colour, but any movement it had she was confident that the sheer amout of paper would give away its position immediately.

And then, as the lamp's glow met the far wall, she saw it: a red scaley form sat upon a crate, its body curled around in a tight ball with its hands childishly around its face as if it would help it further hide. From between its claws, a fearful eye peaked out and stared at her.

If this was a serpentine, she reasoned, it surely was an ugly one. Especially wearing such a red gi that seemed stretched and unfitting, yet somehow familiar... Maya took a step closer, eyeing over its form once more and lowering the lantern. "You're not a serpentine... you're... Ray?" She asked almost not believing her own words.

Any doubt left her mind when he squeaked out his awkward laugh and smiled his goofy smile. His hands fell to his lap and idly squeezed at the ruined fabric, "you caught me, surprise." Ray fidgeted.

"Ray what happened to you? Is this why you disappeared all day? We need to tell Wu right away, I'm sure he can undo this-" Maya turned to do so as she talked, only to spin around and approach him again. This time, in a much lower voice she asked, "Was it the fangpyre general?"

He blinked, unsure of what she meant, "N-no? Maya this isn't serpentine related, its, I'm-I'm not fully human." Well that's an odd way to put it.

"Then what are you?" Her voice became harder, "and why were you watching me sleep?"

"Well, I maybe kind of sort of am part dragon..." he squeaked, "and I-I can explain the second one! I was going to tell you about this but then- well you looked so peaceful I didn't want to wake you up. But then you looked at me like you wanted to kill me so I got scared and ran." Ray smiled.

Maya squinted, not buying it for a second, "does Wu know?"

"No. I rather him not know... Maybe he already does... I don't know."

"Can you change back?"

"Uhh, well, no. I'm stuck sort of."

If it was a secret enough to cause him to be in hiding all day, that certainly didn't bode well for tomorrow. "How did you end up like this in the first place, maybe we can reverse walk through this." She set the lamp down and sat on a box across from him, leaning the rod against a shelf.

Ray thought about it, "I dunno. We were all sparring in the morning and then I guess I just started thinking about how to really channel my element you know? Then I started thinking about the war and what we're fighting for and I just got so worked up about it that I felt -I dunno- sick. And thats when this happened." He flicked his tail. "My dad told me a story once, about how a dragon in our family went rogue and forced a drought that wiped out villages. What if I do the same thing?? What if I lose control when we go to fight and I hurt you?"

Maya tapped her fingers on the wood, "do you feel yourself slipping away?"

"No... but what if people think I am?"

"I think you're overthinking this."

"But what if-"

"Ray," she stopped him, "So you're part dragon and you had some bad family history. That doesn't mean anything until you prove it to mean something. My mom told me when I was a little kid that all of the great feats in my bloodline mean nothing to me unless I make them meaningful, and unless you actually want to go and make farmers mad, I don't think you'll do it." She crossed a leg over the other, "You may look differen't, but you're still the dorkishly annoying blacksmith I care about."

He looked away, "you don't think the others would be scared of me if I looked like this?"

"well... no I think they would be, which is why we should tell Wu."

"I don't want anyone else to know about this." Ray muttered.

"Then we'll make him promise not to say." Maya nodded, picking up her things. "Ill be back with him shortly."))
