When lightning strikes
Jay can choose where he wants a lightning to strike from the sky, he can even choose to have one hit him without needing to redirect it. He can use lightning to recharge his energy, make his voice have the force of thunder, move and travel by electricity until he reaches the sky. A single command and he can disappear into a blue mist. Nothing capable of stopping him.
Congrats on the 300 followers, @sharksandjays!! This is my entry for the challenge!
If you have read my fic stormbound you will know in which chapter my hc of "Jay letting lightning hit him to travel through electricity" appears
#YES GUYS I DIDN'T FORGET ABOUT STORMBOUND#I KNOW I PROMISED TO MAKE A SEQUEL AND I WILL DO IT#SOME DAY#Meanwhile here's Jay wearing his Stormbound gi#shark300challenge#ninjago#ninjago jay#ninjago fanart#jay walker#ninjago headcanon#ninjago jay walker#jay ninjago

The ninja try to put some common sense in Lloyd regarding Harumi
After season 16 finale:
Cole: So….Lloyd, about sending Harumi to Kryptarium for life-
Lloyd: No. We’re not doing that.
Cole: Oh come on Lloyd. If you would just listen to reason-
Lloyd: No. We’ve had this conversation before and she’s still staying.
Zane: Lloyd….why is Harumi walking around the monastery?
Lloyd: She’s just helping. Rebuilding the monastery and all. I invited her over to stay for a while after it’s finished.
Zane: I highly recommend not letting a ex-supervillain stay at the monastary and letting her walk around freely.
Lloyd: She’s helping! It’s just like with Garmadon. He changed why can’t we trust her?
Zane: Even you don’t trust Garmadon.
Lloyd. It’s different. It’s just for a little while. Then again it wouldn’t be too bad if she stayed here for longer-
Everyone collectively from across the monastary: No!
Jay: So Lloyd! Any idea when Harumi is moving out? In a week? Two weeks? A few days? Tomorrow?
Lloyd: She hasn’t said anything about it yet. Give her time. Maybe a month? Probably longer. But it doesn’t matter.
Jay: Oh really….a month…..we’ll do you mind kind of nudging her towards moving out. Possibly soon. Very soon. Like this week? Or tomorrow? Please? Because-well-I’ve kind of been feeling scared even in my own home and get a mini heart attack every time I see her so I was thinking…..
Lloyd sighing: Jay, I’m not going to force her out. And you have no reason to be scared of her. Everything will be fine.
Jay: Really? REALLY? I have no reason to be scared! She tried to kill me! TWICE! So I can’t be sure! Sorry for being a little traumatized from that and not trusting her! And you out of anyone should know! She traumatized you the most! And-*Presume hour long rant*
Kai: Okay listen up Lloyd. As your cooler older brother figure it is my responsibility to make sure you know everything on how to make it in this big world. But that also means I have say the tough things sometimes so I’m going to be straight with you. Stop simping over your evil ex-girlfriend!
Lloyd: What-no! I’m not doing that! Harumi and I are just friends!
Kai: Raise your standards Lloyd! You can do better than that!
Lloyd: Is that what you are worried about?! That’s not even true! And it doesn’t even matter.
Kai: Ofcourse it does!
After the dirty looks they gave her at the end when Lloyd got off the dragon with her you cannot tell me they just forgave her.
I know this is probably completely out of character but this was too funny not to write.

StaticEnergy Brothers AU (but it's the MovieVerse)
(I have nothing better to do, English class is boring)
It's a normal day for Lloyd. He's been receiving looks of mockery and fear from the moment he leaves home until he gets to school, Chen and his friends are teasing him as usual, and his ninja friends are fine. Zane with his usual weird and robotic ways, Cole quiet with his headphones blasting music, Kai and Nya acting like the older siblings that he never had.
And just like any other normal day, Garmadon attacks the city just before lunch time.
Lloyd and the others escape from class, put on their gis, grab their mechas, and head into battle. At first, nothing inusual happens. Lloyd orders his team to take on Garmadon's fleet of marines while he goes after Lord Shark himself. He easily finds him walking in his ridiculous shark mecha towards the mayor's building to take control of Ninjago City,they exchange some heated words and Lloyd is one step away from shooting missiles at his father. Is it his impression or his father is acting more annoying than usual?
Suddenly, Lloyd — or rather, the Green Ninja — is grabbed and thrown off his dragon and — holy crap, THERE IS FRICKING A KUSARIGAMA PRESSED TO HIS NECK.
A dark blue-gloved hand gripping the weapon's handle catches Lloyd's attention, only then does he look at his attacker, who is probably one (lucky) of his father's thousand seafood generals—
... Okay, so he's not wearing some ridiculous sea animal costume, he's actually dressed like a ninja. A black gi with varying shades of blue, some silver details and a single orange cloth underneath the outfit. The only sign of skin that Green sees is in the eye space of the mask. A patch of pale skin is decorated with a some visble freckles that are beneath electric blue eyes filled with determination.
Green hears Garmadon let out that annoyingly evil laugh and he sees the Oni approaching, only then does he realize that the guy who caught him off guard must be another one of Garmadon's soldiers, just with a better fashion style.
Garmadon steps down from his mecha and walks over to stand behind the evil ninja, smirking at the scene before him with malice and... Pride? Why isn't he giving that arrogant and mean face he gives to his normal soldiers?
"Very good move, my son."
Lloyd feels his breath catch and he is sure that this only sentence makes all of Ninjago stop moving.
"S-... Son?!" Green repeats, looking from the boy to Garmadon and back again. The Oni just laughs at his reaction.
"Oh yeah, I never brought him to our previous battles, so you guys never had the chance to meet each other." His father approaches the other Ninjac— his supossed brother — and places two hands on his shoulders, the other two behind his back. "Green Ninja, I want you to meet my son, the Lightning Ninja." Garmadon's sharp, toothy smile was fearsome. "Or Sparky for those close to him." He added, dropping his shoulders and patting the Blue one on the head.
For a moment, the three of them just stood there. Green with his throat at the mercy of Blue's curved blade while his father smiled maliciously. It was a tense moment, just like those in movies where the hero faces the villain after he makes his big revelation, and It was that's what it looked like, with Lloyd staring at his father in disbelief and confusion while Garmadon himself began to laugh uncontrollably.
That's when a throat clearing sound caught their attention.
"Dad, with all due respect, I understand that this is a tense moment and all, but did you realize that the rest of the Ninjas are destroying the fleet and that Cyan and Red are coming with everything on this way, right?"
Indeed, Nya and Kai's war screams sound in the distance.
#ninjago#jay ninjago#ninjago lloyd#ninjago kai#ninjago cole#evil jay#StaticEnergy Brothers AU#ninjago movie#the lego ninjago movie#ninjago nya#kai ninjago#ninjago zane#this would be so funny#So Lloyd would go to his uncle and ask him#he's all “there's something I haven't told you” but not even Wu had any idea about it.#and koko might have known about it but never said anything because she thought it was just a stupid joke by Garmadon#and then surprise#he really exists#meanwhile jay is nervous about the other half of the family#everyone is so confused

I'm very into Jay's villain arc, it's just.. the whole Agent Walker/ the Administration set up is what I’m more into because:
The portal in Jay's division could be the key to find Arin's parents
Potential Sora vs Jay fight would be so cool
Zane's nindroid but human identity thing?? How the Administration discriminates Zane somehow
Jay. He didn't care about his job right? But does he care about his underlings? Make him see how badly injured his people are.. and make it personal. Let him invent something
And
What about this 'master of lightning joining *the path of darknessssss*'?? Would this be another "They use me because of my power" "The universe called me here" "I have to do this for (reason)" "The Administration didn't pay me enough so I'm here to get another income"
Maybe it's unfair to judge like that since the tournament episodes haven’t released yet.. I'm sorry, I might miss inventor Jay so much.. By being Agent Walker that means he has to rely on that side of him more. Him vs Sora fight would feel.. something else. It won't be just a fight but also a brain game (possible dirty play?). Jay ripping bunch of mech's cables when I just want to see him using cool gadgets more than just shooting bunch of lightning (It’s not like they're going to explore that power this time). He already did good with a gun..
Jay with any weapon actually
#Oi I still appreciate the writers giving him villain arc#I just want to put my thoughts here#nj#ninjago#If anyone wants to save the gif just take it. No need to credit or anything#Also.. another thing- I like how the fandom give him BASTARD child#I want them making alliance with Wyldfyre#Meanwhile Jay and Kai scream into the void#jay walker#Cole's children join them later on. Don't worry he doesn't know.. yet.#I think Geo would be fine with that. Different kinds of species can get along in a troublemaker group#“I feel like already being a good example enough why my kids are like this”(affectionate) -JKC#Poor cole

I like Akian pre-main story because it's pretty much Akito hitting on the gas pedal even harder any time he sees An because "I have got to work harder to catch up to Shiraishi if she can be this good at her age then so can I and she's kind of like my rival anyway" meanwhile An doesn't care if Akito lives or dies
#jay rambles.txt#like she cares a little bit. just a bit#but compared to the amount of attention Akito gave her it's hilarious how little that is#like Akito randomly pulled off a fact from An's middle school about her and she went 'oh huh. yeah I guess I did do that!'#meanwhile An didn't even know about Bad Dogs getting heckled

Can we get a ranking of speedsters most to least likely to kill
This thing is gonna be an upside down pyramid. Jesus, okay.
Tier 1 (Have killed, will kill)
Jay, Max, Dawn, Don
Tier 2 (Have killed, will kill again but is more prone to torture when angry and/or threatened)
Barry, Bart, Wally
Tier 3 (Hasn't killed but will if needed)
Avery, Ace, Jesse, Jenni
Tier 4 (Actual child)
Irey, Jai, Wade
My explanation for this? Simple. Tier 1 is all people who have actively fought in wars. Jay fought Nazis, he killed people in WW2. That's just what happened. He doesn't feel bad about it. Jay avoids killing people now because he isn't at war currently, but he will kill and has killed if he absolutely has to.
Max has also fought in wars and he has had a long and storied past throughout history. The man has seen and done things. Not all of them good. But yeah, Max has killed. Will he kill again? Unlikely. Unless someone is threatening his daughter or Bart, in which case, yes, it's very likely.
Dawn and Don also fought in a war and killed entire platoons of Dominators. They're unlikely to kill again because they're dead. But if they weren't dead? I'm pretty sure they'd still be fine with killing people in wartime situations.
Tier 2 is a little bit more complicated. Barry, Wally and Bart have all killed people. It's a last resort for them but it's still always an option. If they have to kill the bad guy to save the civilian then they'll kill the bad guy no questions asked. Some people have to die for the time stream to function correctly? Sure. Okay. Especially bigger bads like Darksied. They had absolutely no problem killing Darksied. Oh, and you better watch out if you threaten their loved ones because the people they love are worth dying and killing for.
They don't like it. They really don't like it. But they'll do it.
(Honestly though? Bart is unnerving unfazed by it)
Tier 3. So... This may come as a surprise but I actually haven't read all the LoSH comics? So while I'm fairly certain Jenni hasn't killed anyone, I can't say that 100%. Either way, she'd be down for it if it was the only option.
Avery would 100% be down for murder. So would Ace. That's the Iris West influence right there. Those two kids are not afraid to get their hands dirty and, while I'm fairly certain they haven't yet, I have no doubt that they will. These two just inherited Iris' moral code and she's totally fine with homicide.
Jesse surprises me because she's gotta have killed someone. I'm wracking my brain and nothing comes to mind but I don't buy that for a second. She's just got that homicidal energy, you know? She's 100% done it and will again, I just can't remember when it was.
Tier 4 is the children. Now... to be clear. I'm not saying that they haven't killed anyone because they are children. No, I'm actually fairly positive they have killed a significant amount of people. I'm saying that they are children and therefore do not understand the concept of death. They don't really understand that they've killed people and I don't really think they are any more or less likely to kill again. Until they understand it they are just destructive forces of nature. No malice or intent. Just sheer raw power.
#Irey and Jai have killed a truly insane amount of people for how young they are#its inspiring honestly#Bart is wild because he's honestly like 'Oh No! Anyway-' when it comes to killing people#Barry is like 'Dang that sucks... going to jail i guess?' The man is fine with it. not happy but doesn't really regret it either#but also he can and will turn himself in. like... hes aware of the consequences and he's ready to face them when he kills#meanwhile Wally handles it the worst out of all of them#well. sometimes. he did throw Eobard into space one time hoping that he would die#so... it's a case by case basis#dc#dc comics#the flash#kid flash#wally west#impulse#bart allen#barry allen#speedsters#jay garrick#max mercury#jai west#surge#irey west#thunderheart#ace west#wade west#jesse chambers#jesse quick#avery ho#dawn allen#don allen

the black sky and all those lights
a silly little something i wrote for jalentines!!
When Mal opens the dormitory door, Jay is standing in the hallway in his workout gear, hair tied up in a bun. He’s already grinning in that way he does when he wins a fight. Mal rolls her eyes at him. Grabbing her bag, she says bye to Evie, and joins Jay in the corridor.
She scowls as they walk, her workout clothes tight on her skin. Jay had insisted they’d do things properly, and not in their usual leather.
The hallways are decorated for Valentine’s Day, making Auradon Prep even more gaudy and colourful as usual. Pink and red hearts plastered across the walls, boasting the abundance of love here in Auradon. Jay’s had a thousand notes in his locker. Mal’s had none. Every morning, she watches Jay approach his locker like he would a target on the Isle. Weight forward, shoulders squared; ready to fight if needs be. And the paper falls to the floor like blood, only sickly pastel. Scrawled glittery gel pen. Words confessing passionate love, or asking him on dates, or doodles of hearts. Jay smiles the whole time. Greets and winks at girls. Scrunches those notes up in a fist.
“Everywhere looks disgusting,” Mal says as they approach the sports hall. Heart-shaped bunting crests the doors.
Jay holds the door open for her. “It’s fun.”
“You would think that.”
The sports hall is mercifully free of décor. They drop their bags in the corner and begin to warm up, another stupid practice Jay insists on. His top rides up as he side-stretches. Isle rule: never show skin, especially to the enemy. Except, Jay loved to parade around in those stupid sleeveless vests. She’s yelled at him plenty of times about it—Are you insane? You’re a walking target. He would just grin and say, they’ll have to catch me first.
Jay laughs as he grabs the practice swords from their stands. “Here.”
He throws it, and Mal catches. The weight in her hand is familiar. Already, her pulse is thrumming faster, and maybe if she closes her eyes she’ll be back on the docks, with the wind ripping at her hair, and the salt stinging her nose, and half a dozen of Uma’s crew jeering over the clanging of swords.
Jay chucks her a mask too, before attaching one to his own face. The mesh turns her vision slightly hazy.
“Ready?” Jay asks.
Mal’s watched fencing practise a few times, mostly as an excuse not to do homework and instead watch her boys wipe the floor with all those prissy Auradon princes. Coach Jenkins appointed Jay captain of the team a few months ago, a role he takes more seriously than she’s ever seen him take anything.
“Rassembler! Salute! Lower the point. Masks down. En guarde!”
Mal lunges first, which Jay clearly anticipates, parrying her blow. He circles. Strikes. Mal blocks it. He’s quick. Reflexes honed to a sword’s point; learned by practise and theory. Mal lashes out again, just catching his free arm before he jerks away. She grins underneath her mask. Her breath comes quicker. Jay’s blade arcs down, hitting her chest. Mal swats his blade away. She hears him laugh. She growls. Strike. Parry. Strike. Block. Strike. Jay lands another hit. Their shoes squeak against the linoleum floor.
“Come on, Mal,” Jay teases.
Mal lunges like a cat on its prey. Jay’s blade grates against hers like steel against flint. Jay may be quick but Mal’s smaller, and she weaves her way through Jay’s blade until they both have the sword’s point angled at each other’s chests.
They’re both panting. Jay lowers his sword first. Takes off his mask.
“You came in clutch at the end,” he says.
Mal huffs, wiggling the mask off her face and wiping her forehead with a sleeve. “You actually get training.”
“And now I’m training you!”
His hair has loosened during the sparring, spilling out at the seams. He unties the bun; flips his hair down and shakes it out. In this late-afternoon light, his hair could be made of gold. Hair longer than Mal’s ever had.
He pulls his hair back into its bun, deft fingers making quick work. When he straightens back up again, his face is slightly flushed from the match.
And Mal looks at this boy she’s known most of her life; this face and these hands; a boy that has held her at the end of the world and the start of a new one. And she snatches back down her mask.
“Again,” she says, lifting up her sword.
She’s swinging before Jay’s even had the chance to pull his own mask back down. Her blade slices against his chest, and she hears the breath escape from his lungs.
“Fuck!’
Jay’s blocking her hits in no time. Mal grits her teeth. A boy who’s inhabited every place she’s ever been. The shadow along the street; a fixed point on the rooftops. Those long, quick fingers that know their way around bandage; around open flesh; around her own hands. Like a comet to Earth. Like an eclipse. Totally consuming.
And here, where the sun shines brighter than they could have ever dreamed, she is left blistering. Those girls that fawn over Jay, professing their love with the same ease that Mal can hold a dagger to a throat. Jay’s clicking tongue, and that low fry to his voice when he’s chatting someone up. Everything is always so easy to him. He can wrap anyone around his finger with a wink.
His blade slams into her stomach. Mal pants, the budding pain in her side clearing her head. Jay’s standing above her like some heavenly deity.
“Best of four?” he offers.
“Yeah, whatever.”
“C’mon. Let’s take a break.”
Jay drops his sword and grabs his water bottle from his bag. Mal joins him, still gripping her sword, gulping down her water like a man in a desert.
“We should do this again soon,” Jay says.
“Tomorrow?”
“It’s the Valentine’s Ball tomorrow.”
Mal snorts. “Yeah, and?”
“I was gonna go.”
His words are coming too slow; too considered. Like when he used to talk about his dad, or a particularly bad Barge Day. Rehearsed. A guard dog who’s smelled danger, prowling at the sidelines.
Mal presents her blade. “En guarde!” she shouts, and Jay ducks her swing before scrambling over to his own sword.
“Really, Mal? Another sneak attack?”
“I’m keeping you on your toes.”
They waltz around the sports hall, the blades clashing and slicing and singing.
“We all agreed we weren’t going to go to the Ball,” Mal says, jabbing at Jay.
“We never agreed anything.”
Jay lands a blow. They are at the dockyard, with its rotting wooden pier and dead fish stench. The screeching of metal; the shouting; Mal’s heart hammering like the tide. Blood, and life. The roar in her ears. A dragon’s call. Body moving without a thought, as quick as a lightning strike. Not having to look behind her because she knows Jay is there.
“Exactly!” she says. “Why would we want to go to some stuffy Auradon ball?” Jay tries to say something but she ignores him. “Why would we care about Valentine’s Day? It’s corny, and over-commercialised, and a stupid excuse to make everything about love.”
Jay has her backed up against a wall. With no time to mount his mask, his lips are slightly parted, and his hair is escaping from his bun again. He looks just like he did on the Isle; none of his perfect prince act that fools Auradon. His sword hovers above her throat.
“Do you yield?” His voice is low.
Mal stares at him. Those eyes that have seen every part of her. All the blood; every smile; her pale skin in the dark Isle nights. The boy that has beheld her every action; weighed it all against his own understanding of the world, and decided that they slot together as easily as a bullet in a pistol.
“Who are you going with to the Ball?” Mal asks. She’s still clutching her sword. She could claim the upper hand, if she really wanted.
A grin creeps across Jay’s face. All those notes and heart-shaped lollipops. The giggling girls at his locker. He could pick any one of them. All of them so beautiful, in their sunset-coloured dresses. He could have anything he wanted.
“Well,” Jay says. “I was going to ask you.”
The sword’s point makes sure they keep their distance. Never too close. All touches so light; so fleeting, as if you could’ve mistaken them for a dream. As if you could’ve imagined the whole thing. All those nights in the hideout where the barrier of the body seemed thin, and the world became so small: just two kids who wouldn’t even dare knock knees.
So Mal shakes it all away with a laugh. “I’m not going to the Valentine’s Ball.”
Jay lowers his blade. Neither of them move. “Not even with me?”
“I’m sure there’ll be plenty of other girls who actually want to go with you.”
“I want to go with you.”
His words echo through the empty hall. His word is as steadfast as ever, the only opinion Mal will ever trust. Compass, anchor: Jay does it all.
Heralded here, Mal as real as the vast sky outside. Here, in his gaze, held aloft by trust where there shouldn’t be and compassion where there shouldn’t be and understanding where there shouldn’t be. A home for all her broken bones.
Mal’s lips unfurl into a smile. This ache in her chest. In her throat. Jay always being able to disarm her. Jay in every place she’s ever been. Jay as her shadow; her skin; her second self. A reflection in the mirror. The line of separation is nonexistent. Like the sun, like the moon: one cannot exist without the other.
#did this turn out way longer than i anticipated? absolutely#but i had a lot of fun writing it :) ive had to write a lot of things that Matter recently so it was nice to just. not have to try so hard#anyway anyway I LOVE THEM#i just think. mal being soooo annoyed that jay gets to play the carefree flirt#all these people that dont know him being 'in love' with him meanwhile mal can barely come to terms with her own feelings for him#and she communicates that through violence :)#and jay. jayyyyy. doesnt really want anything to do with these notes. like sure he likes the attention but he doesnt KNOW any of these girl#and they dont know him. and no one could know him like mal does :)#i also purposefully left the ending ambiguous teehee :) so i guess we'll never know what happened thumbs up emoji#descendants#jal#jay son of jafar#mal bertha#my fic#also i am not a fencer so everything i know is from the jay/lonnie right in d2 and google 👍 sorry to any fencers out there 👍#*fight

Love this!! 😂 Davis is gesturing like "we can be calm, low-key" and Vladdy just points at the camera like "or else"

I’m just saying that fnc would EAT UP “I’m Just Ken” if they sang it together
#they’d get so fucking into it#meanwhile jay is absolutely obliterating a monster in the background bc fnc forgot they were in a fight bc they committed to the bit so hard#loosing my mind over this actually#tigers rambles aimlessly#jrwi#just roll with it#jrwi show#gillion tidestrider#chip jrwi#jrwi fish and chips#jrwi fnc#jrwi fish n chips#fish n chips#fnc#i’m that fnc guy
