"The Fangblade.. or Lloyd?" - Ninjago Identities au

~closeups and explanation/yapping under the cut~

woooooo! super proud of this one!! I might’ve drawn it at like 2 am last night but damn I cooked ? anyways.

soo if you saw one of my previous art posts of Kai (identities au), you would know that he had a burnt arrmmmmm (he is the burnt chicken nugget) and now I have revealed why that is NYEEHEHH! >:)

Kai burns his whole right arm while grabbing the fangblade, still holding onto Lloyd- his arm is mobile whenever he has his powers, but if his powers are gone (which would be in season 5, season 11, and whenever he comes in contact with Vengestone), his arm would be too scarred to use since he never got the chance to let it properly heal.

yes, Kai still unlocked his full potential, since he went after Lloyd first. He was far too determined to get the blade, since it clicked in his mind; "well shit, if I don’t get this blade now then Lloyd and all of Ninjago will be in danger because of the great devourer!…welp time to save Lloyd AND get the fangblade!!!!!"

Kai was originally supposed to die in this au so you’re lucky all I did to him was make him a burnt chicken nugget

I just learned that dr s3 pt2 episodes got leaked.

this fucking sucks, dude. not only do I feel bad for the fandom and people who will most likely end up getting spoilers from this (like myself! I haven’t even watched pt1 of s3 yet!), I also feel SO bad for the creators. what the hell.

not even angry atp, just disappointed.

please don’t post spoilers. don’t watch any of the leaked stuff. wait until the episodes actually release. I don’t condone this and no one else should. just don’t give any of the spoilers you see (or any of the people posting them) the time of day 😭 because this is genuinely becoming a problem. and if we don’t give them the attention, maybe they’ll just stop leaking shit. I hope.

"I can’t hold you anymore."

heh.. hahaha.. glacier angst..

okay but fr, can we just talk abt how these guys barely had any chill happy time after season 2? Zane DIED and then when he came back, the VERY NEXT SEASON, Cole turns into a freaking GHOST 😭😭😭 ITS SO SAD! I needed to draw about this.

"FIGHT HIM LLOYD!" ~ Ninjago “Possession” redraw (2023 versus 2025)

<~closeups + yapping under the cut~>

they’re the brothers ever 💚❤️ oh, wow. who knew my art had improved this much?! who knew it was so bad in 2023? 😭 kinda embarrassed of even posting this, but I’m REALLY PROUD of my improvement so it’s okay.. (but SERIOUSLY.. why does Kai’s arm in the original look like he has two elbows..?? that’s not how arms work HELP!)

I’m just kinda baffled at my own progression. back in 2023, I never would've thought i’d be this good. I would’ve never thought that there’d be a time where I was always genuinely happy with how my art style looked, and how all my drawings came out. if you told my past self that I could draw humans successfully (most of the time), and was confident enough to even start posting stuff… I probably would not have believed you! lol! anyways, I’m super happy with this one. even though it took a while to just painstakingly get every single little detail right, I’m glad I did! because it looks SO good!!

hiii I am here to point out/analyze (??) a scene from Skybound that I haven’t seen anyone mention before.. (if this has already been talked about I would like to see the post about it ^-^) also, apologies in advance if tumblr kills the quality of my pics..

⚠️tw/cw for icky implications and the topic of skybound as a whole⚠️

this screenshot. I’m sure you’ve seen it before, I’m sure you recognize the episode/scene it comes from (s6 episode 6: "My Dinner With Nadakhan"). but have you ever noticed the way Nadakhan is touching Jay?! did you ever notice that he’s grabbing Jay’s waist..?

the fact that Nadakhan (after seizing Jay’s wrist) went for Jay’s WAIST next is concerning to me. it was such an immediate reaction, no hesitation whatsoever. he just grabbed him. Nadakhan always vandalizes ANY CHARACTER’S personal space, but this grab felt so violent. and the way that Jay has almost no reaction to it..? that’s also deeply concerning..

now I know you might be asking- "is that even Jay’s waist?". I know, I know. it LOOKS like his hand is pretty high, but remember that Jay is also sitting down. I have more pictures to prove that this is, in fact, Jay’s waist.

and the thing that makes this whole scene even more terrifying is THIS:

the way that Nadakhan smiles when Jay finally gives up is sickening.. and again, it’s so sad that Jay just.. accepts it. and Nadakhan caressing Jay’s hair.. which we’ve seen him do MORE THAN ONCE- not to mention the one time Nadakhan pulls Jay by his hair to lift his face off the ground.

(I couldn’t find a picture of the exact scene, but this is another time Nadakhan is being weird with his fucking hook hand…! ew..!)

I know that y'all get what I’m implying here.

just felt the need to talk about this scene bc of how much it breaks my heart :(

Thunderbolts is better than the OG avengers and I think there’s a couple reasons for that. I know I’m stoking the fires with that one, but as an enormous fan of Avengers 2012 I always wanted something more from them.

Avengers 2012 was a true ensemble movie but its leaders, Steve and Tony, were defined by their conflict. Their differing personalities. The formation of the team was the point and their instability as individuals second to that. They had to get over each other to work together.

Thunderbolts isn’t really an ensemble movie. There’s an ensemble in it, but it’s about Yelena and her struggles with her mental health- her search for a solution to her depression and grief and trauma. So instead of getting over the differences of her teammates, it’s about wanting them around- learning to find the good and accept the bad. To prop one another up and find connection.

There’s also something distinctly un-masculine about Thunderbolts. I say un-masculine because it’s just not Joss Whedon’s Avengers. It’s not gendered in that way. It’s not about how sexy Black widow is when she kills a man, or the dick measuring contest between Steve and Tony- their dysfunctions and savior complexes.

The avengers are built on sacrifice- how much are you willing to sacrifice to keep humanity safe? The thunderbolts are once again built on that connection but they’re also built on their guilt and desire to be better people, not only for their loved ones but for themselves.

They also defer to Yelena. John does the “I’m the most experienced guy of course I’m the leader” bit and then almost immediately defers to Yelena later in that sequence even if he’s reluctant at first. The plan only works if you wait for me. You can see later in that scene when Bob is shot, John waits for Yelena’s call on whether to leave or do something about Bob in that moment. There are obviously times where they don’t defer to her, this is a group of people still getting to know and trust one another. They work together instead of despite each other.

They come to see her as someone to follow because they see her empathy, her ability to wait and watch and assess, and also her insane plans! Like calls to like but they see a team leader in her without her vying for it.

Idk I just love this movie. I have low hopes marvel will be able to strike lightning twice but I really hope they can. I’ve missed it.

Guys, this fanfic-

I dont care if you dont ship Jay x Zane read it
