Bestie Can You Link The Poll I've Been Looking For Like An H And Im Getting Desperate TwT

thinkin how the hermits would film/be watched in-universe

TW: Heavy talk about death

I think the reason why Kai and Cole had such a radical emotional change after March of the Oni was because Lloyd died

We’ve had plenty of characters die in Ninjago, and it always had a horrific affect on the ninja emotionally. Despite all their adventures and godlike powers they’re still older teenagers and young adults- of course when their sibling or lover dies in the fight they’re gonna want to avoid the fight itself

I think it was different for Lloyd tho- Lloyd despite losing the golden power is still the most powerful ninja. He’s not meant to lose, out of all of the ninja he’s the one who’s least likely to die and I think they know that.

So when he died facing down the Oni, even briefly, that would make the ninja doubtful and even afraid of their own mortality-

Kai’s hotheadedness and desire for the fury of battle dies when he see’s his little brother unresponsive on the floor. If he can die, so can Kai

Coles stubborn facade and die hard attitude gets a reality check when the kid who defeated the incarnate of evil lies dead in front of him

It would just be a reality check for them. Both have had to look death in the eyes many times before, but experiencing death is something that they themselves wouldn’t often think about.

Just a theory

feeling real normal and fine over the fact that scar said “you can have a monopoly” while handing grian cacti. as they stood together in the sand. that is the Closest acknowledgement either of them have ever gotten to the cactus ring.

do you think that was scar’s way of trying to tell grian he misses him? that he truly does forgive him? that he never held anything against him for how things ended up on that mountain oh so long ago?

do you think that’s scar’s way of truly reaching out to him, saying it while talking in slightly more direct circles. that they can be okay again?

do you think, as scar holds the thorns of the cacti in his hands, feels them prick his skin (if he imagines, they feel like the thorns of a beautiful rose), he’s really just taking grian’s rough hands in his own and saying it’s okay.

scar gave grian that monopoly as forgiveness, I think.

Something I love about ninjago is the fact that the villains actually WIN sometimes. It immediately raises the intensity and perceived danger level when a villain makes a good plan that actually works. I will never forget how intense the final battle with the overlord was in season two when I watched it the first time, and a lot of that is due to Lloyd losing against overlord/garm on the island. He failed, the others failed, but after that they still went to the city and fought, and that made me love and admire the ninja in a way I hadn’t, because how many times do you watch a hero go into a fight knowing they will lose everything if they fail again, knowing they absolutely CAN FAIL. And it’s nice that they keep up with the stakes throughout most other seasons. It’s definitely one of the things I really love about this show.

ITS HIM!!!! i drew this in the hour mumbo uploaded and then proceeded to accidentally fall down th stairs

So fun to find another collage girlie who loves ninjago! Question, what is ur favorite ninjago ship, and what ship do you like that isn’t well known/seen often?

YES. literally i will watch this show until it's very last season. i've been here since 2011 and i'm not backing down now. (mostly because i have an unhealthy attachment to this show but we are not going to get into that rn).

my favorite ninjago ship is pixane!! they have fantastic chemistry and i cannot wait until we see pixal again because i miss her so much.

my favorite ship that isn't seen often is ED AND EDNA WALKER. like wdym we haven't seen them since hands of time???? literally i will RIOT. (i mean technically i think they were at nya's memorial in seabound and at the finale in crystalized but really that doesn't count because they have no lines). anyway, their relationship is so cute and i miss them so much.

thanks!!

Yup! It’s also set post merge but pre-current timeline:)

another day, another post with me begging you to send me your favorite lloyd garmadon fanfictions. PLEASE.

This is by far one of the cutest designs I’ve seen for them!

Here are my designs for my povs in season 9 :)

I feel like Cub and Doc are both incredibly intelligent people with a deep technical knowledge of the game, but Doc uses that knowledge to actively bend the game to his will, meanwhile Cub uses his knowledge exclusively for Mischief and Shenanigans
