Does Little Hellspawn Name Her Plushies And Make Little Pretend Advantures And Tea Parties And Games

“UNAGAMI WILL CHOOSE YOUR OPPONENT.”

Lloyd watched the screen in front of him flip through various characters for him to potentially face off. He was shocked to find that many of them were people he knew from his life, and more importantly, people he was reluctant to fight–either friends like Clutch, or especially bad enemies like Aspheera. He thought he even saw an image of Harumi flicker onscreen for a second, and his heart did a little leap as he feared what he would do if he had to fight her.

The screen froze and disappeared before he could have a good look at what opponent had been chosen for him. Rows of glowing blocks materialized in front of him and formed a person.

Lloyd took in a sharp breath. He felt so numb, he almost dropped his sword.

It was worse than Harumi. Much, much worse.

In a quivering voice, he softly called, “Dad?”

It wasn’t just Lord Garmadon. It was Sensei Garmadon–uncorrupted, with two arms, gray hair, and a friendly smile. His eyes were soft, unlike the harsh red glow in his oni form, and he wore the same robes he had passed on to Lloyd the night he sacrificed himself. The wrinkles around his eyes crinkled as he smiled at the green ninja.

“Lloyd,” his father greeted warmly.

Lloyd’s limbs shook. Many emotions flashed through him at once–pain, nostalgia, yearning–but he chose to focus on his confusion. “You’re supposed to be corrupted,” he said.

Garmadon walked toward him. Lloyd knew he should have been tense, but there was too much comfort in that warm smile, and in the slight limp in his gait that Lloyd had grown so familiar to in his years spent training in his dojo.

“That monster is not me,” Garmadon promised, then spread an arm out for a hug. “I’m sorry. We have a lot of missed time to catch up on.”

Lloyd felt a sob push its way to his throat. He knew it wasn’t very leaderlike, but tears welled up unwillingly in his eyes. He dropped his sword and embraced his dad, and suddenly he felt twelve years old again, hugging his dad after a long day of training to use his golden powers and fight without fighting.

There was a dull pounding on the forcefield around the arena. Jay was yelling something inaudible past the barrier, but none of that mattered to Lloyd. All that mattered was soaking up the soft silk of Garmadon’s robes, the warmth from his form, and–

A sharp pain flared across Lloyd’s back. He cried out and pushed himself away from his dad. Garmadon stood back, and in his hand was a dagger dripping with pixelated blood.

Lloyd gripped his injury and stared at Garmadon. “Dad…what…why?”

Garmadon’s expression didn’t change. He still wore that warm smile and those soft eyes, but paired with the dagger, they had become unnerving.

“I’m sorry, son,” Garmadon said, not sounding sorry at all. “I have to do this. Surely you understand.”

Lloyd looked up and finally noticed the red health bars that had appeared above both their heads. A pain squeezed at his heart, more painful than the injury in his back.

An opponent. He was an opponent.

Garmadon stabbed him again, too swiftly for him to see, just as skilled as the real Sensei Garmadon had been. Lloyd hissed. The health bar above his head shortened.

The green ninja hurriedly picked up his sword from the floor and held it aloft. The two fighters circled each other slowly.

“You don’t have to fight,” Garmadon said, his voice as smooth as running water, same as Lloyd remembered. “Just surrender and turn back.”

Lloyd glimpsed at where Jay and Nya stood, trying fruitlessly to pound their way into the arena and yelling something Lloyd couldn’t hear. He knew what they were trying to say now. This wasn’t the real Garmadon, and Lloyd knew it.

But it looked like him. It sounded like him. It even moved like him. The way the sun shone against his skin and made his hair look like glowing silver made him seem realer than any photo he had of him.

Garmadon lunged again, and Lloyd narrowly blocked his blade. He knew he should attack back, but the weapon felt heavy in his hands. The tears in his eyes were threatening to spill over.

It was cruel, as simple as that. Lloyd would have gladly fought harumi, or even his dad in his corrupted form, but this…

“I can’t,” he croaked, his eyes stinging and his chest sobbing. “I can’t fight you. I don’t want to.”

But the lines of code wearing his father’s face left him no choice.

Poll?

I know the Ninjago fandom is pretty small, maybe 500 at most?

I’m going to ask everyone who is an active member of the Ninjago fandom (Not just a side interest, etc.) to PLEASE Reblog this. I want to find out how many people there are.

How many people at school or in general tried to befriend hellspawn just so they could get to meet the ninja or have the ability to boast about being connected to them through hellspawn? Cause, like, there is no way this won't ever happen.

A lot, unfortunately.

They'd ask all sorts of questions like what the inside of the monastery looks like and whether she can teach them Spinjitzu. (Well she can't. Blame Lloyd for saying she's too young for anything) Cue them later asking what the ninja are really like and whether Kai's hair is actually real. Does Zane need to be charged before battle? Is Nya still with Jay? What does Cole do in his spare time? Why are Lloyd's eyebrows suddenly so different? Is Wu really that old? Are they allowed to come to the monastery?

You'd think getting that amount of attention and interest would be fun for someone that young but it's the opposite actually. It's great at first but starts sucking after a while. No one really cares to ask her about her after she told them she doesn't have Lloyd's powers or anything like that. A conversation with those kids almost always involves someone asking something about her dad or Uncle Zane or Uncle Jay and she gets bored. Speaking of which, what's so interesting about her dad, anyway? He picks his nose, he burns tea—

And then there's this boy who basically worships Kai and all hellspawn's thinking in her head is the last time there was a fire in the courtyard and her Aunt Ni looked like she wanted to murder someone. He says he really wants to meet Kai someday cuz he's cool, and definitely should've been the Green Ninja instead of Lloyd who barely deserved it. As soon as hellspawn heard that she was like: what did u say.

To spare you the details, she got into some *cough* minor trouble — which Lloyd freaked out at because when he was at Darkley's, he was the one being hit and the last thing he wants is for her to end up like one of Gene's goons at the age of only fIVE.

So naturally, he spent at least twenty minutes giving her a whole lecture about why she should never hit others and how wrong it is, causing her to sulk and tell him what the heck happened.

Silence.

Lloyd: He's right.

Hellspawn, blinks: What?

Lloyd: Kai should've been the Green Ninja.

Hellspawn: But—

Lloyd, shrugs: Well he trained, he worked hard — he wanted it a lot more than anyone. I was just some dumb kid that ended up with it. *forces a smile* Destiny's weird, don't you think?

Hellspawn: ...

Later, she finds Kai who's in the middle of sharpening his sword and asks him about it.

Hellspawn bites her lip: Do you still wish it was you?

Uncle Kai, stares at her incredulously: Of course. I could've FIXED Lloyd's whole life—

Father and his son I’m gonna cry

Please, how were they even supposed to know that a teenage Lord Garmadon would end up at the monastery?

[Ninjago] Almost forgot to post these…anyways lloyd art, s5 doodles, plus rgb siblings bc I love em :)

Maaaan imagine Lloyd going on his Oni rampage, and everyone is helpless to watch because they know he’s probably in a lot of emotional pain and obviously no one wants to hurt their baby brother/the one person 2/3rds of the ninja were deigned to protect, and then:

Kai: I can’t do it!! We can’t fight him like this!!

Garmadon, from nowhere: *rolls up sleeves* I sure can tho

I see y'all with your Quiet One Lloyd AUs and I raise you:

AU where Lloyd never met the Ninja again after their initial encounter in Jamanakai Village. He ran off before he could fall into the Hypnobrai tomb, so no one, least of all the Hypnobrai themselves, have any idea how or why it opened.

Couple years down the line, the Ninja (who still have no idea who the Green Ninja is) are getting their butts handed to them by a mysterious masked stranger, wielding an unknown element in the form of some sort of destructive, green-and-purple energy. An out-of-breath Kai angrily demands to know who this guy is, prompting the assailant to dramatically pull off his hood and mask and say,

"What, you've hung so many kids from roofs you can't even remember all of them?"

My take on the Lloyd/Harumi arc (Ninjago s8-s9) (feel free to see this as more of an au idea)

(Because I thought the plot didn’t make too much sense as I detailed here)

Still think it would be interesting if Lloyd thought evil Harumi was hot. No idea how that would possibly work? Like it has the potential to be mega toxic. Or maybe Lloyd was just trying the old “the best way to defeat an enemy is to make them your friend”. Actually I think that would work really well because that did defeat the first son of Garmadon (s1 Lloyd). And it may just justify Harumi’s redemption

I just don’t want Lloyd to be as attached to her as he is in canon because mans really just met her 2 days ago, didn’t really know her, she kissed him like once and then was hung up over her for 3 seasons like man, shouldn’t he be used being betrayed by friends by now (snakes, pythor, his dad, his mum technically, technology, the tournament, the museum guy, the postman). Like this wasn’t anything new

Maybe he was a similar opinion to Nya when first meeting the royal family, that they’re cringe but develops a crush on Harumi when she thanked everyone personally, and instead of being “girl… 😃” he actively tried to deny he had any feelings because he took a look at LITERALLY EVERYONE in this series with their truck loads of relationship drama and went “no no I do not need that noise please omg I don’t need to feel this”. Like it would be funny. He saw a girl and now he’s going ballistic.

Then he kinda ignored it when her parents died because read the room

*lloyd and Harumi in the temple*

Harumi: I have a confession

Lloyd: me too! Let’s say it at the same time

Simultaneously: I’m actually the quiet one and I want to resurrect your evil dad // I’m in love with you

PLEASE IT WOULD BE FUNNY

And then she kidnaps him

While she’s walking him to the ritual he’s just *mimicking kai* “just tell her how you feel Lloyd! What’s the worst thing that could happen?”

At some point in s9 they’re alone fighting and while he’s still like “f u, you brought my dad back” she asks him tauntingly, why he liked her and he basically redoes his confession

And that he thinks that there’s genuinely good in her, that despite everything she cares for her found family (the SoG) and she’s just hurting. And that he knows what its like because he relates to her. He once felt backed in a hole, doing anything to make himself bigger. And he knows that deep down, she doesn’t want a dystopian Ninjago. She just wants to feel okay again.

And she’s like “… shut up” but really that’s what she needed to hear.

And that’s what we’re thinking off when she dies.

Also it ties into Lloyd’s arc of “finding his voice”

Also Garmadon doesn’t adopt Harumi. Or at least, he makes it clear that he does not care about her.

Harumi: I’ll be your daughter

Garmadon: if that’s the delusion you want to live, then so be it. But make no mistake, I no longer care for any child of mine

Harumi: …I’ll take it!
