OKAY: headcanon time:

Jay, Cole, and Kai share one specific trait: treating certain objects like humans/with a great amount of care

Jay's resides around electronics and things he creates/is creating (any medium). Obviously, can't forget Mr. Cuddlywomp, and further more all stuffed animals he's owned.

Cole's is definitely around rocks and stones, going as far as plants even. Drawing utensils as well

Kai's is bugs, but also weapons and their mechs. Just like the dragons, he cares for then and juat makes sure they're alright.

Zane, for the life of him, cannot pick up on this phenomenon. It's one of the things that fascinates him about his team, going as far as to spy on them when this occurs.

I'm sorry I couldn't stop myself from writing a thing.

It was supposed to be a routine junk run.

Geo kept watch for trouble while Cole, Fitz, and Spitz dug through the newly lost items to find anything to help make their life a little more comfortable.

It was rare that he came across anything useful, let alone interesting. However, there were occasional fun surprises.

Once there was a bottle of hair gel that looked exactly like Kai's preferred brand. Another time he found a Fang Blade-- a real Fang Blade! He ran his fingers over the delicate engravings and fought down a wave of sadness. He missed those days. Back when he and his brothers' biggest problem was some bratty kid and a handful of pesky snakes.

The best thing he'd ever found buried in the lost items was a stale bag of Ninja Chips.

"Fitz! Spitz!" he'd called. "Come here and meet your aunt and uncles!" He'd excitedly pointed out each figure on the crinkled bag. "That's Lloyd, the Green Ninja! He really likes candy, oh and also he's the son of Lord Garmadon... yes, from the stories. And then there's Nya, the master of water. She's the toughest person you'll ever meet. Trust me, you don't want to get on her bad side. Nya's brother is Kai, the fire ninja!"

He babbled about his buddies until it got dark, and Geo had to practically drag them all home.

Cole wouldn't let anyone eat the chips. He needed them. In the Land of Lost things, it was too easy to forget things. The chip bag may have been wrinkled and faded, but it was the only picture of his family he had left.

Zane, Kai, Jay, Nya, Lloyd. Zane, Kai, Jay, Nya, Lloyd. He repeated the names to himself over and over again. Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd.

Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd, he thought as he watched the wispy clouds crawl across the sky. Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd, he thought as he picked through lost items day after day. "Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd," he told his kids at bedtime.

Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd Zane Kai Jay Nya Lloyd Zane-- he dug through a pile of old socks-- Kai--he cought sigh of something blue and fuzzy-- Jay-- it was a stuffed animal.

A floppy little plushy, patched in places and roughly sewn up in others. With worn features, it was difficult to tell what animal it was supposed to be. some zebra/donkey/horse/giraffe/thing? Whatever animal, it was lumpy, clearly well loved.

It was also heart-wrenchingly familiar.

He'd seen the stuffed animal many times before. He'd seen the blue poking out of boxes when they'd moved into Yang's Temple. He'd seen the shiny eyes staring out at him from beneath rumpled blankets on many mornings. He'd seen faded pictures of a family in a junkyard, with this exact creature cradled in the arms of the beaming red-headed boy.

But most importantly, he'd seen the lumpy creature clutched in Jay's arms after one too many nightmares. He'd seen Nya press it into Jay's arms and rub his back whenever Jay awoke clutching his eye. Cole had seen it too many times to doubt what it was-- or whose it was.

And Cole knew without a doubt that this was Jay's stuffed animal.

What was the name... Fuddlewhip? Cuddleflop?

"Mr. Cuddlywomp," Nya's voice echoed through his mind. She'd said so in Prime Empire.

Unease crept through Cole's stomach. Jay had slept with Mr. Cuddlywomp ever since he was a kid. How could he forget his favorite stuffed animal? Had something happened to him?

Cole didn't know where the other ninja were. What if-- what if Jay had run into trouble and-- what if he was--

Cole shook his head. No. He had to trust his best friend. He had to trust that Jay could take care of himself.

Ninja never quit.

Still, Cole cast around, searching for something, anything else that would tell him if Jay was okay or not.

Some boxes, some bottle caps, a handful of rubber bands, a battered video game controller, a model train, and a model ship in a bottle.

Nothing.

Nothing of worth, anyway.

He trudged home. Fitz and Spitz were fascinated with the blue creature. Cole told them it was his brother Jay's. They each gave it a squeeze before handing it back to Cole; they knew how important keepsakes like this were to him.

Lost in thought though he was, Cole couldn't help but feel proud at their compassion. He might be a good dad after all.

Back in his little room, Cole put the stuffed animal next to the bag of Ninja Chips. Next to the Fang Blade. Next to the hair gel. Next to the only things he had left of his family.

"I'll get back to you," Cole whispered, "one day. I promise."

"Cole, could you come help me with the outer wall?" Geo called.

"On my way," Cole called. He turned back to his little pile of keepsakes. "I've got to help my new family before I can help my old one, okay? I promise I won't forget you..."

He glanced at Mr. Cuddlywomp, "As long as you don't forget me."

Do you think Cole ever came across things the Ninja lost?

OKAY, WAIT, THOUGHT:

Nya taking up some dragon traits. Not because she's a dragon (probably has recessed genes) but because she's watched Kai do it and thought that was the norm! Like:

-Full body swaying when content/happy (Kai's entire body sways when his tail wags)

-Wrestling (affectionately, a good way to get energy out)

-Nuzzling

-Teeth baring (angry/irritated)

-Rock chewing ("Nya you can't do that" "But I wanna be like you!" (Kai trades the rocks for clay, and she eventually stops this soon before Kai joins the ninja))

But, also, Nya does things to Kai to appease certain dragon things, upon realizing that it wasn't normal for humans to (still does those traits, but won't beg Kai for hybrid form) like:

-Upside down heart, and watching Kai flick his shoulder (the tail tip flicks up to show the heart shape, his shoulder rolls upwards)

-Cuts nails, sometimes paints them (to appease some hoarding tendencies, typically of shimmery/bright objects)

-Tackles randomly whenever Kai's getting too antsy without a way to stretch wings (wrestling ensues)

-Will bring Kai to 'Ninjago City' for a little 'runaway' (to a field for Kai to stretch wings)

And Kai does things for Nya when in hybrid form to help both of them cope with the hidden truth, like:

-Cuddles during cold nights (Kai will wrap his tail around Nya to keep her warm)

-Nuzzles to openly show affection (neither like/have a hard time saying the words 'I love you')

-Itching spots (Kai has long/sharp nails naturally, so it's really good for hard to reach itchy spots. Typically in human form, but still helps)

-Hoard 'sharing' (aka, stealing from Jay and giving it to Nya (Mr. Cuddlywomp is a prime target))

-Protectiveness (Nya won't admit that she loves being part of her brother's hoard)
