Update here’s lost!lloyd (finder Lloyd? Idk yet lol)
Notes: his arm bands and earring are made by geo (who’s going to essentially be his big brother)
He kept the rib hoodie, cutting the sleeves off and the torso open when it got to small
His hair is always a mess, particularly bc he refuses to maintain it (much to geos dismay)
He’s still on his whole “I’m gonna be like dad and take over ninjago” thing. He’s simply unable to leave the land of the lost.
World building notes: without Lloyd the overlord won in season 2, meaning everyone else is pretty much stuck in post apocalypse mode.
So I was thinkin about the land of the lost and how geos been their his whole life from what I under stand and wondered like. Hey what are the rules for becoming “lost”?
Don’t have an answer but I have an au. lost!lloyd is gonna be my new obsession i think. Here’s the first spiel of it ^^ please let me know what you think! I will be attempting to draw lost!lloyd soon
————————
Lloyd wasn’t sure how long ago he’d left darklys (totally because they weren’t good enough for HIM) a year? Two maybe?
He’d been alone for long enough it hurt.
He missed Brad.
He missed mom.
He missed.. dad.
Neither of them ever picked him up. Neither of them ever showed.
Lloyd did what he could to make it through each day but. Wondering around on your own left you hungry.. and. Lost..
The young garmadon had no CLUE where he was. Or where to go.
So he wondered the land of ninjago in search of food and shelter.
“This is so stupid” he huffed, “that stupid school wouldn’t know evil if it hit them in the face!” His face scrunched into a scowl, he drew his leg back, attempting to kick up a patch of sand, landing square on his back instead with a resounding ‘oomf’
“AGH!” He shouted in frustration “can’t even kick SAND right. Gene was right.. maybe I am better off lost..” his red eyes welled up with tears, he shoved his sandy palms to his face, trying to stop himself from crying
And then
He began to sink
His heart stopped as he realized it wasn’t his imagination
His tears turned from despair to fear as he desperately tried to scramble away as the earth tried to swallow him whole “HELP!! SOMEBODY”
He screamed at the top of his little lungs, trying to grab onto something, ANYTHING to avoid getting sucked in but it didn’t matter.
His hand slipped from the sand as he screamed. Sure he would die. The earth around him became so.. warm. Comforting almost. Then hot. Scolding. Unbearable before-
PHWOOSH
The lord terror in training shot right out of the earth in a firey geyser. His screaming followed by the thud of his tiny body smacking into sandstone
Lloyd groaned, sitting himself up as shook the sand out of his hair and he blinked the sun out of his eyes
“Where the hell AM i..?” He frowned, taking in his surroundings. Piles of junk cascaded nearly every inch of the place. He was lucky he didn’t skewered.. “is. Is anyone here..?” He asked meekly to the garbage heeps
Something clattered nearby
“Hello?” The frail boy asked, trying to push himself to his feet only to be met with pain in his ankle. He seethed from the white hot fury of putting any weight on it “h-hey-! I need help!! If some one’s there you should. Uh. You should come out already!!”
This time Lloyd’s cries were met. A purple faced teen with teeth the size of Lloyd’s wrist poked their head out. “Are you.. hurt?” They tilted their head to the side. Trying to get a look at the boy from a safe spot.
“Obviously!!” Lloyd rolled his eyes “I just fell like a bazillion feet!!”
The teen chuckled, making their way over to young new comer “the geysers don’t get quite that high,”
Lloyd tensed. “Well it sure felt that high… where even is this place?”
“This. Is the land of the lost.” The purple one explained, kneeling by Lloyd and checking on his ankle before grabbing pieces of scrap metal to act as a splint “and I’m geo.”
Vinny from ngtv news been workin overtime lately
MA BOI IS FINALLY BACK AGAIN<3
This is a rare non Wu post, but this has been in my head for a while now and I need to say it, just a small theory/thought. Don't take it too seriously..
But
Our Zane is DEAD.
Wild thought, right? Like we've seen him come back time and time again, how could he be dead? He's a robot he can't die- no. You don't understand.
Zane DIED in season 3. The son that Dr Julien MADE with his love and care, is DEAD. I've been trying to pinpoint why Zane hasn't felt right to me ever since s3, maybe it's just the way he was made but he further becomes a bot, than, Zane, further becomes the protector of those who cannot protect themselves, than ZANE, than OUR cooking, funny, jokes and japes loving Zane. The Zane who was confused but was..Human nonetheless. The Zane we never even thought could be anything else BUT human, just. Different.
That Zane died when he sacrificed himself. What he was made from, made WITH, could not be replicated. The titanium ninja might look like our Zane, might sound like him sometimes. But he's empty. And only further growing farther than what Zane was. A brother. A friend. Now he's an informat laying heavily on the FACT that he IS a nindroid that can be replaced. Because he WAS replaced.
Our Zane is gone.
And he's not coming back.
I’ve realized that now that I have a tumblr I can actually post my old art!! This is a sleepy kai I drew back in 2022 ^^
Ok I have thoughts about this.
DR seems to be treating relationships that are somewhat similar to the early seasons in the exact opposite way
Jaya was shown to be endgame as early as the pilots with some level of mutual attraction (even if the writing for was. Silly to put it nicely) where as frak x Sora wasn’t even a possibility until season 3 and doesn’t seem likely dispite them being some what simaler characters to the former.
On the other hand you have Kai x Skylor, which dispite being shown as a possibility as soon as the character is introduced is never followed through on. Which is the opposite of the ship for Kai’s trainee, Wyldfyre, and her ship with rody who seems has the healthy version (our at LEAST healthIER) of Skylor’s upbringing. They have a confession faster than Jaya! Within a season of rosy being introduced they have have expressed interest in each other and seem to be starting a relationship the very next season.
Frak x sora is to jaya as wyldfyre x roby is to kai x skylor, imo
I don't know why people think Sora will actually reciprocate Frak's feelings towards her 😭😭😭 This is nottttttt early seasons Jaya dawg, Sora has not shown any actual interest in Frak, whereas Nya was Very clearly attracted to Jay to some extent. Like I get that Ninjago does usually tend to shove Girl and Guy together but it feels so obvious to me that they're Not doing that again here...
Ninjago headcanons: spinjitsu fam edition (spoiler free)
Lloyd and morro picked up a lot of the same mannerisms from Wu, however it’s a lot more obvious in morro and he can actually make tea properly.
Mystake is the auntie of the family I don’t make the rules.
FSM was just as “there’s something I haven’t told you” as Wu.
Not necessarily a hc but imagine the pain of watching your child slowly corrupt, knowing he’s going to be taken advantage of by the origin of evil and not being able to do ANYTHING about it
That’s all today. Sorry it’s shorter then normal all my brain cells have gone to my au (which you can read here if you’d like 👉👈)
Dragons rising spoilers
HEY I JUST REALIZED JAY AND NYA BOTH LANDED IN THE REALM OF MADNESS AFTER THE MERGE 😭😭 god nyas gonna beat herself up for not getting to him first
reblog if you’re okay with people writing fanfics of your fanfics and/or fanfics inspired by your fanfics
WAIT THATS WHY?! I thought they just didn’t want a 9-10 year old fighting the BBEG— that’s crazy…
Aged up for bay blade..
I was on my way back from work today when i remembered that little fun fact about how the entire reason they hit Lloyd with tomorrows tea was because lego needed an adult minifigure to be able to put him on the little spinny toys they were selling at the time. I love being obsessed with a longform toy commercial
Kai after he gets home, looking in the mirror and just. Practicing.
His smile. His laugh. His quips. Practicing how to seem like himself so Lloyd doesn’t worry.
Breaking news: fan fic writers have obligations in real life!!! We have lives outside of writting and don’t have time to update every day <3
I have no sympathy if you turn to ai for updates and fuck over the author like that. Theres a special spot in hell for that shit.
Maybe if people updated more we wouldn't turn to ai
You’re a pathetic, impatient loser. Fanfic writers owe you nothing, and their writing is their own, not yours to do with as you choose, you entitled brat.
