Ninjago Movie: “Different POV” - I Cannot Feel

(The night before the attack of Meowthra)

Cole was the last to leave. He is always the last to leave. He says he doesn’t live far, but I detect the lie. Cole cannot lie and keep eye contact. I detected that within the first week I knew him. I do not say anything though, for I do not want a dent in my metallic frame. The warehouse is very silent after Cole leaves, which could seem frightening to some, but is peaceful to me. I cannot fear. It is not in my programming. I can only detect nervousness and anxiety, but cannot feel them. The warehouse does not make me detect nervousness and anxiety when it is empty, though it could make others feel afraid. Jay would be afraid. I’ve detected 3,497 individual things he is afraid of since the moment I met him. Large, dark, empty spaces that have heavy equipment that make no sound is on the list. I do not linger in the warehouse, however. My apartment sits at the top, with a perfect view of the city skyline. My apartment is not very big, it only has room for a place to keep my clothes hung and a charging station for when I power down, or ‘sleep’. I do not 'sleep’ much, because I only require 5 hours of maximum charging time until I have a full charge. Instead, I stare out the window and out at the city, deep in analysis. I go back through my day and analyze every detail. I mostly critique myself, and how I could be a better human. On this night, I critique my first conversation I had with Lloyd. I mentioned that I argue with my mom, but he knows I do not acquire a mom. I also accidentally spoke in fax, which a human does not understand. I must keep in check when I switch languages that quickly. I also believe I squeezed Lloyd and Kai too hard during the birthday hug. Lloyd was rubbing his left bicep the whole day; I may have damaged it. I need to remember not to use all my strength when I detect excitement in myself. When Garmadon attacked today, Lloyd got very emotional, which both stimulated me and worried me. When teenagers have mood swings like that, or experience that level of rage towards something, it may lead to something malicious. However, I did enjoy hearing the passion in his voice, I do comply with his feelings about his father. At least, I believe I do. I cannot feel. Oh. There is my internal alarm. It is time to charge for the night. The warehouse is silent, but the city is not. The sound doesn’t bother my 'sleep’ like it would do others. I am a heavy sleeper, like Kai. I will not wake to any sound, but maybe it is my programming. I do not know. Tomorrow is a new day. Though I detect that something bad is coming, it cannot be worse than one of Mrs. Watson’s infamous pop-quizzes L-O-L. Good night.

The universe gave me a sign today

One small thing that bothers me whenever I rewatch this particular moment in the series: At the end of "Day of the Great Devourer" after the Great Devourer has been defeated, the others discover that Master Wu is, in fact, NOT dead. We see them shout enthusiastically, and begin running towards him. Several members of the group raise their arms up and out while running, and then we cut to Wu also spreading out his arms. It looks, for all the world, like they are about to hug the shit out of him. The group then slows to a stop just in front of him. No hug. Am I the only one who noticed this? Is it weird that it bothers me? Is it part of the teapot joke?

pleasepleaspleasepleaseplase watch my amv it took me like a year to make

i literally hate this guy so much vex says bull like "my emperor your army grows restless i humbly advise you provide them with something to occupy them..... (evil conquest connotations)" and ice emperor is like "they need..... entertainment??" and then slowly dramatically rises from his throne and because that accursed song is the only thing hardwired into his programming for some reason he just starts jiggin and singing and vex is like "my liege respectfully what the hell is wrong with you" but he just keeps going at it having the time of his life and when hes done the ice samurai all start clapping and cheering because it was the coolest thing theyve ever seen in their lives and ice emperor does a bow to the audience resulting in more uproarous applause and everyone is ignoring vex who is flabbergasted and doesnt get it

SHOW YOURSELF WU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Based on the music - this reads as a True Potential scene. Yeah the "becoming the Golden Ninja/USM" is probably intended to be Lloyd's True Potential (and then Garmadon in Rebooted says Lloyd has even more to learn) but this exact track plays when Zane/Jay/Cole/Kai reach their True Potential, plus this is the first appearance of the Golden Dragon.
