Starset - Something Wicked
Is this where the liar ends?
Dark where the light had been
Lost at the war within
Out of myself, I feel it crawling
How can I tell if this is the ending?
Out of myself it began evolving
I am not well, repent I'm guilty

[A scene that I had planned to be in a fanfic of mine that was discontinued but has a rewrite in process. Enjoy.]
From the moment his son had cleansed his blood of the evil that was the Devourer's venom, Garmadon was a good man.
Or at least he had tried to be. And here he was, chained up in a realm he could no longer remember the name of, memories drifting further and further apart until he was stranded, alone. But still, he held on.
He missed his son. He missed Lloyd.
Garmadon only wished he was able to see him again. It had been too long, a memory of Lloyd's face, green eyes like his filled with the torment that Morro had brought upon him, along with the permanent eye bags that crinkled with Lloyd's uneasy smile.
Time kept stretching on under endless sky, or what he could judge of it. He was losing faith. This was what he deserved anyway. Endless imprisonment, a price paid for sacrificing himself. Or was it for destroying the lives of many?
Then he heard it. A call from beyond. From the emerald green murkiness, came a feminine voice. Garmadon yelped in his spot as winds suddenly whiplashed him as they passed, heading in a certain direction. He could do nothing as the air-turned blades slashed at his skin.
A laugh followed. Garmadon looked down at himself, attempting to distract himself from the pain. A chill washed over him, instead of the relief he so desperately wanted. A line, dark as night, began to snake up his skin, turning all it touched into the same colour.
His left hand was already in such condition, lines thickening as they curled up his arm, reaching deep into his bones and stealing away the warmth that lay underneath. Like a bad omen, he felt its evil grasp him in its unforgiving grip.
It was not yet done. Garmadon whimpered quietly, attempting to fight it with crumbling memories of a family left behind, torn apart by his departure. There was no stopping his unbecoming. His return to the old self.
A scream tore itself from his throat, tormented cries lost in the raging wind that hurtled past him. Something he could no longer feel on his skin. A scream so raw it left what remained of his lungs aching with heartbreak, with the great loss that came with this, tears beginning to stream down his face.
No one else but him heard.
And then the worst came.
''I call upon thee lord of many names. Lord of Destruction! King of Shadows! Lord Garmadon! Garmadon!'' The voice called again, this time clearer despite the wind.
''Who... calls... me!?'' The growl echoed from him. But it wasn't him, it couldn't have been... Garmadon had worked so hard... but to come back to this? The chains rattled in their place. He felt a heat searing his eyes, red briefly covering his vision.
Then it was gone. Like he had just begun a race, Garmadon- no, Lord Garmadon, began to pant, leaning over. The rattling suddenly became a pain in his ears. Another growl and he tugged at them. A strength that wasn't there before clawed at his restraints.
Lord Garmadon snarled as he began to break free, the metal breaking under newfound strength, then looked around as he tried to locate the source of the voice that had called to him.
The last of Sensei Garmadon was gone once both of his restraints were broken. And whoever needed him now, whoever that was, now only a blurry memory of a boy with blond hair that would never get him back.
Her voice came again. Garmadon stumbled towards the sound, relying only on his hearing, his sight useless to him. All that mattered now was the voice. And only the voice.
It all fell silent. The wind stopped. He faltered. There was no familiar sound, the one thing he had grown to want to get to was gone.
Lord Garmadon screamed at the walls, clawing at his confines, falling to the ground as his twisted hopes were dashed. He narrowed his eyes. There was a way.
And he was going to escape.
At the Temple of Resurrection, the altar lay bare of the items it once held, the room dark and emptied. Then, the room was lit with purple flames.
A hand emerged from the pedestal.
Something wicked this way comes.
How did lloyd and hellspawn did on the time skip after season (and by that i mean how bad)
For a long time—and especially during those first few weeks before being reunited with Kai, Lloyd was a total mess.
Imagine this, he was already hysterical in season 9 when she was taken along with the elemental masters because of Harumi and that was only for days. The time-skip after the merge is like, 5 years. Poor guy. Not only did he just lose everyone he grew up with and knew, he also lost his kid.
At first, he stepped out of the monastery for a bit to find everyone, but later returned home alone. Then he tried fixing Wu's destroyed scrolls to make some sense of them but that didn't work. Nothing seemed to work.
By the time Kai found him — you heard that right, Kai found him — green boy was a depressed mess who looked like he hadn't slept in weeks or seen anyone. He's definitely lost weight since Kai's last seen him, and we're not looking at a Morro situation.
So they talk. Kai tries to console his baby brother but it's not helping much. Lloyd spends most of his time either in Wu's library or in his room staring at a damaged stuffed dragon. At this point, Kai's the only reason he's a functioning adult and tries to get him to eat and shower but yeah, one day Kai had enough.
He drags Lloyd out of bed one morning after greenie mumbles he's not hungry and forcefully sits him down to get some sense into him, which is funny because that's usually Lloyd's job.
Yeah, she's gone. She's not here in this monastery right now with her dolls or playing tag with Luke after school—but he has to remember that she needs to have someone to come back to. They all do. Not taking care of himself like this isn't helping anyone. So could he please pull himself togethe—
I'm still waiting until part 2 to decide where the heck hellspawn ended up though. All I can say is that, it took a long time for her to finally understand what on earth was going on and why she's no longer in the monastery with everyone. Man, she's only 8. Only 8 fucking years old and all alone, what have I done. I'll elaborate more on her after we really understand dragons rising.

As his unwilling successor, Lloyd sometimes wishes he'd known that piece of information sooner.
Or; Lloyd accidentally creates a kid before s3 and ends up balancing both the life of a ninja and raises a mini him through the seasons.
Garmadon: Lloyd may I ask you something?
Lloyd: Sure thing dad, what’s your question?
Garmadon: What is a “dilf” and why are people calling me that?
*silence*
Garmadon: Lloyd? Lloyd please what is a dilf? Is it a bad thing?
*later*
Lloyd, busting in a room with all the ninja charging an energy ball in his hand: Which one of you fucks have been calling my dad a dilf?

After the events of S11, the ninja are back to being whole once more. With Zane once again himself and Aspheera having been locked away, they're ready more than ever for whatever that'll come next. But to be fair, being ready for THIS was impossible.
Please, how were they even supposed to know that a teenage Lord Garmadon would end up at the monastery?
I know I said I didn't finish it yet, but I had some free time and I FINALLY did. It's embarrassing how long this took bruh.
New favourite headcanon.
So, in crystallised, the episode with Garmadon explaining where he's been, Garmadon gives a pizza delivery man one of Vinny's cameras.
But I like to think that it wasn't.
Vinny was at work during this time, right? So he had the camera with him. Yes, it could be a spare. That is most likely the truth. But going off Vinny's character, it doesn't seem like he would leave it out for Garmadon to break, at least not to me.
But I personally like to belive that it was a random dudes. Some paparazzi jerk who tried filming Garmadon when he was out so he stole it and ran. He still had it and so feels no remorse in giving it away to some delivery driver.
Plus we've seen Garmadon cares for Vinny in his sentiment "wipe your feet, Vinny just vacuumed" so it's clear he values Vinny efforts and work. Yes, Garmadon could just be a double sided asshat you doesn't give two shifts about Vinny's belongins in the tike of need and food, but it's a funny thoigh nonetheless.
This comes across more as a theory than a headcanon, but what you you think? Either way I find it funny.
What are Lloyd and Hellspawn's ages throughout the seasons?
So Lloyd had her about six months before s3, so I headcannon he'd just turned physically 15 then (mentally 11 but in the end, he makes it work)

So, you guys know those cosmetic surgery vids right? The ones plastic surgeons make analysing celebrities? Well, since the ninja technically qualify as celebs-
There are definitely discussions like that about him. Let's just face it, this looks like a whole new person.
I think the funniest part of crystallized was when people were like “oh guys your just being mean! Your being unfair the season hasn’t even come out yet! I’m sure this will be great” only for them to go “this shit sucks” when the season actually comes out /lh
This is probably random but Lloyd & Jay need to have a fight scene in a kitchen at some point. I need to see both of them exploding appliances and quoting Starfarer lines at some villain because c'mon, they just have to.
Imagine Akita meeting the Lloyd hellspawn.
Hmmmmm....Akita 👀. Now that's something interesting to think about.
Lloyd's kid absolutely loves her. No doubt about that. I mean, what kid wouldn't want to pet a cute furry wolves' fur, ya know? And what wolf wouldn't feel a little annoyed about that though?
But the kid grows on her after a while, that's for sure. I know in S11, Lloyd told the team he was going to go find Zane alone, but I just like the idea of mini him deciding to tag along secretly, and Lloyd only realizes that until they're miles away from the village. And maybe she wasn't even supposed to be in the Neverrealm either — but of course, she's got too much of Lloyd's genes (and maybe even Kai's influence) to stay put in Ninjago after she saw the ninja... errr literally tie up Wu in front of her.
Oh, and during the moment Lloyd's mouth decides to use Akita as a therapist, her eyes are turning to the kid, basically as if asking whether her dad really isn't the type to shut up. Honestly, even the kid kinda knows her dad needs therapy, so she's... grateful for Akita I guess?
Lloyd and Lord G are my coping mechanism. I'm also on FFNet and AO3 And yeah, I can't draw.
