"My place is here. You know it is." "And where is mine? If not with you?"

[lloyd-the-green-gremlin]

sleepy master lloyd. I wonder if he's graying already. I mean my cousin is 24 and she has a whole ass gray segment in her hair. So i guess its possible. Anyways. Ill let him tend to his masterly duties

This has been said before, but I just love how wild ninjago shipping culture is

Four guys all living together and fighting crime? Yeah their poly ship is of one the most popular in the fandom

Which one won a “best ship” tournament? The (probably ace) robots of course

You want middle age men in love? We got two that are very popular, take your pick

The various of female side characters that were created almost exclusively to be love interests for the male leads, why not ship them together?

You want the main character shipped with a kid he used to go to school with and has only been in like two episodes? Almost universally considered better than what was almost his canon ship

You like the canon ships? Great for you, we got stuff for that too and we’ve added some much needed depth

Any flavor you want them, whether it be enemies to lovers or doomed by the narrative or canon compliant, it probably exists somewhere

And is shipping not your thing? There are more gen fics than anything else

[lloydfrontera]

the webcomic can have one (1) funny "earnest moment interrupted by comedy" joke. as a treat. but also because it is so in character for them ajkshdjkas

yes they will say the most earnest shit to each other and then immediately try to cringe out of their own bodies. they are best friends but they would rather jump out of a window before admitting it. they are incredibly devoted and grateful to one another but you could not water board that out of either of them.

the only thing that can get either of them to admit how much they care for each other is if the other is in life threatening danger and not a second before aakjshdks

notes app stuff to get in the swing of things

Wu trained Morro at the same time that Garmadon was training with Chen which MEANS that Misako was around to see what the pressure of wanting and training to be the Green Ninja could lead to.

So later when she had Lloyd and KNEW that he would be the legendary Green Ninja, do you think she thought of the child Wu had once trained? The kid who became so obsessed with proving himself that he put himself in danger time and time again? The little boy who ran off into the night and never came back?

After seeing that, is it any wonder why she didn't want to leave her son-- the actual Green Ninja-- to be trained by Wu at such a young age?

Maybe a boarding school for bad boys would never make him want to be a hero. Maybe it would keep him safe from the destructive power of destiny. Maybe Darkley's was the only way to save her beloved son, Lloyd Garmadon, from himself.

Maybe Misako remembered Morro. And maybe, just maybe, she knew it would be best if her son never turned into someone like that.

I love your art!! The way you draw hair and facial structures is pretty

I am curious about your headcanons on Nya! Both in design and just random bits of info 'n whatnot

Oh, and what's your favorite season(s) of ninjago?

thank you!!! i have quite a few headcanons for her, i think it’s interesting to draw how she might look different depending what season it is

here’s a messy guide to my nya designs :D

honestly a lot of this is due to me not being able to make up my mind on her eye color or hair color SO!

-she starts to grow her hair out after skybound due to the whole ‘looking like delara’ thing

-as she got older her hair changed texture from being thick and straight to thick and wavy

after seabound stuff:

-her hair color changes from dark brown to black, as well as the salt water making it more curly then before

- she also wears it down in crystallized due to not needing to tie it up for combat after losing her powers

- her eye color changes from dark brown to blueish grey (which fades over time, eventually being a dark grey in dragons rising)

-permanent markings on face and body from her water form (start off as light blue, eventually fading to a natural scar color)

-imo she probably lost a lot of muscle mass after seabound which i imagine was very upsetting for her bc she worked so hard to be seen as physically strong compared to the others

- i also headcanon that post seabound she is hard of hearing, due to the sound of the ocean in her ears 24/7

- her bangs are grown out in dragons rising, but the side pieces are shorter than before. the rest of her hair is longer in general !

This song and lloyd… ourgh my heart hurts

[fist-of-vengeance]

john locke is such an absolute nutjob and im obsessed with him. imagine having the world's most horrendous daddy issues and chosing to cope with this by forcibly adopting everyone you meet. even if they already have a father. john saw micheal's dysfunctional relationship with walt and went "okay, my son now." charlie's struggling with addiction? adoption time. oh claire's mad at him? i am her dad now and also im raising aaron. boone? my son. this random hitchhiker? my son. dude is collecting surrogate children like pokemon, and he's not even a good father figure. he frequently causes problems for the people in question. BUT BY GOD HE DOES NOT LET THAT STOP HIM

that cop eddie knew all he needed to do was get in john's car and trauma dump about his shitty father and john would immediately go "okay yeah you're my son now."

ben probably could've manipulated him twice as effectively if he used this strategy, but instead he was too busy projecting his own daddy issues by trying to make john kill his abusive dad like he did. meanwhile john is reliving the cycle getting conned by ben over and over again just like he trusted his father. they're competing in the daddy issues olympics and no one is winning

ty @riptidesblog for reminding me of the time Nya nearly blew Lloyd up

would you hug this scared child with a hideous and stupid and ugly bowl haircut for absolutely nothing at all /affection

Gotta love songs from Steven Universe :P

I did it! I finally redrew this project I did all the way back in 2017! You can find the original here. I’ve always loved Dirk’s and Lloyd’s bond, and I’m a sucker for stories of adopted parents. It’s so touching to me that Lloyd, even after finding out about Kratos, still sees and calls Dirk his dad. I need more content of them!!!!

[p0th]

thinking about, despite everything, Garmadon still truly loved his son

[iamsonormalaboutninjago]

I think the funniest way for Garmadon to come back in DR would be him just showing up nonchalantly LMAO-

Scene 🎀✨

Lloyd walking to the kitchen to make his students some breakfast at the crack of dawn, drowsy and barely able to process things—

Garmadon sitting in the recliner: “Hello Lloyd”

“Hello father …”

FATHER?!!!
