I'm blaming @drawnfamiliarfaces (/aff /lh) for this, but guess what-
I may be working on a fanfic for Chase Young and First Ninja, and it is absolutely insane; I am going feral because somehow, it's turned into a non-traditional soulmate au for whumptober. That's all you're getting for now. I am unstoppable.
I am a threat.

I'm still trying to find a way to color backgrounds. This process is very difficult for me and I just try different options, but so far nothing that suits me

I have noticed the works of @drawnfamiliarfaces and @semisomnosres and apart from the drawings of the series, I wanted to leave a small comedic contribution about this "ship" and other drawings. By the way, I have never drawn Chase Young in my life so if you see something went wrong you know why.

So I sat down the other day and went through the crane wives albums and some other songs to assign to Ninjago characters and I've finally sat down and decided to write the post out. The content are going to be under cut because this post will certainly be too long. I'm going to go album by album here starting with Coyote Stories and ending Here I Am: From The Listening Room.
(any and all "(X)" are simply links to the songs <3)
okay, here we go!
Tumblr media
Coyote Stories
Keep You Safe: in some ways, I like to interpret part of this song as relating to Nya's perfectionism, especially within Possession. The bridge especially and lines "What if the steps I take turn out to be mistakes? How can someone like me learn to say "come what may"?" (X)
Allies or Enemies: this is Jay and Cole to me from Rebooted to ToE. Specifically, from Cole's perspective. The song has a lot of regret and bitterness in it that I just think fits so well. The first verse and second verse ("you owe me ears from dropping eaves"), and the bridge are all so clear to me. The bridge, "what happens now? do we have another go (oh) do we bow out and take our separate roads, I'll admit I've had my doubts (oh) but I want to be let in not out (oh) I want to be let in now out", reads to me like Cole's sudden giving in and desperation in their match in ToE. (X)
Hard Sell: this one's a little loser but it reminds me of Lloyd struggles to keep himself strong and straight with everything that gets thrown at him, all the stress. To be The Green Ninja (X).
Little Soldiers: Young Garmadon and Wu, I think. It's their doomed brotherhood, the way they loved each other clearly as impulsive youth ("on the broken backs of all the words we spared, like little soldiers in the trenches, it was a march we made through ruin and despair but we held hands all the while") but ultimately Wu couldn't keep his brother. The bridge reminds me of the war. (X)
Metaphor: Harumi, obviously. There's really no debate, it's her fake mask as the Jade Princess, it's her relationship to Lloyd even. "I've gotten good at leaning on metaphors, I've gotten good at leaning on someone else's page, I cut my teeth on second hand sentiments, you can't trust a single thing I say" -> princess era. It's a sweetly bitter song, chalk full of implications of trauma. The line "but I always dig up bones in your sympathy, I can't trust a single thing you say" is relevant to her relationship with Lloyd, I feel. (X)
Of Everlong: This is a lovely and very soulful song, short and sweet. It's reminiscent of Pixane, to me, specifically from Pixal's perspective. There's a certain connectiveness in being in someone's head. "and if my lover will not hear it take my voice and take my spirit leave weakened and dig my hole only my lover not I can keep my soul" vs "I do not know if there is anything after this life for beings such as you or I, but if there is, I will find you there. Goodbye my Zane." (X)
New Discovery: Fairly simple and not to deep, but this is a Misako song. Adventurer and explorer, and all (X).
The Moon Will Sing: I want to preface two things, A) this interpretation is very much looser and a little less connected t the full original meaning of the song and a little more based in reworking it to fit the characters and B) Wu haters will be stabbed by my mighty and large sword. This is Morro and Wu, on a level. "I shine only with the light you gave me", the light here i the green ninja prophecy,something Morro latched onto to prove his wroth, who is, who is to Wu. The entire song as an air of bitter grief I think fit's Morro and Wu's story. Morro could've grown up and been something more than a half baked angry ghost chasing a dream from 40 years ago, but he wasn't, "I could've been anyone, anyone." (X) (X) (<- an extra link to the demo of the song!! I find it rather lovely)
(Extra note on The Moon Will Sing, I could also see this being a song about Zane/The Ice Emperor and Vex.)
Rockslide: this is about to be very unsurprising, I associate this with Cole! There's obviously the title but generally I think the energy of the song is very Cole-like, in the fun sense. There's also the lines about feeling the "quakin honey I feel it deep" which is rather self explanatory. (X)
The Hand That Feeds: I'm shaky on this one simply because I don't remember or know her character very well, but Akita. Has a lot of mention of wolves and is a very angry song against systemic oppression (though, in the song it's anti-capitalism lol). (X)
Sleeping Giants: another Cole song, mostly based on the presence of mountains, and the 'calling' aspect of the song. I also tend to associate songs with strong drums like in this with Cole (like Drumming Song by Florence and the machine) (X).
Never Love An Anchor: I've seen this song go around actually, mostly with Misako. Which, I agree with! However, I consider it a dual song with her and Garmadon. Specifically, their season one selves. It's Misako leaving Lloyd at that boarding school, it's Garmadon being so absent even though he so clearly loves his son (and despite his evilness, he doesn't seem to wish Lloyd to follow in his footsteps). The first verse really resonates with me as being Misako, clumsy hands and trying her best, and all. The last verse however, is Garmadon ("I am selfish I am broken I am cruel") and so is the line "With this heart of mine that's guilty not remorseful." If you haven't heard this song, I truly, truly recommend it, it's gut wrenching imo. (X)
Okay! We've reached the end of Coyote Stories. That's 11/12 songs out of the albums, the best ratio we have on this listing I believe. Moving onto Foxlore now!
Foxlore:
Nothing At All: when I was looking at this song, trying to decide who to apply it to, I ended up getting kind of emotional. It's Zane, post Ice Emperor specifically. In his self-dehumanization. I'm just going to list out the lyrics that made me incredibly sad lol. "Happy is the man who wants for nothing happy is the lair happiness itself is desire", "heart broken men long to feel nothing to free themselves from strife handle pain, pain doesn't define a man it sure lends an hand getting measured in the sweeter parts of life". (X)
Down The River: Lloyd, post Garmadon revival and Crystallized. All his bitter feeling towards his father, and the angry abandonment issues. The first verse ("I've been wishig that you'd prove me wrong, that you'd come clean and rue the damage done, restore my faith in you, but you've got no reaosn to") and fifth ("Now, tell me, when you start again where will you house your skeletons? Or will they stay behind? Your settlement in kind?") especially. (X)
Can't Go Back: Zane, post Ice Emperor, again. It's that guilt man, I don't really have more to explain but know it makes me Sad. (X)
Turn Out The Lights: Jay, this is mostly about an anxiety head-canon lol, considering the song is about a racing mind. (X)
Ribs: this song is so Nya it hurts. It pretty strongly connects to her arc over the seasons about self independence, identity, and misogyny. It's her finding her place as who she is, and taking back things as her own ("It is mine, it is mine). Verse three I like to connect to her element being of Wojira's and how that is so symbolic of her place in the team (and why she reflect Morro so well in a lot of ways but I won't get into that), "time has changed the metaphor, now, dust is not the orgin of bone, little girl don't let them sell you any armor all your ribs are still your own". There's also the main chorus, which, god I got sad when I looked at it from the angle of Seabound. "The dark doesn't frighten me I chose to close my eyes, it is mine, it is mine, the night doesn't frighten me I chose to let it thrive, it is mine, it is mine." (X)
Not The Ghost: perhaps a little literal but, Cole in his Day Of The Departed era. Though, it connects to his feelings at the time more than his literal ghost-hood. It pretty strongly captures the depression, low self esteem, and growing urgency (around the Latter half of the song). You could also read some of the lyrics as paralleling the events of DOTD itself. (X)
And that's it for Foxlore, that is...6/10 I think, so not the worst either. Fun fact, this next section is my favorite album as a whole :)!
The Fool In Her Wedding Gown:
Icarus: now who else would this be about if not the doomed siblings of the series? Of course it's Wu and Garmadon. I think of this pretty strongly as paralleling their 'adventures' as young children, and then the war. "Oh my brother, oh my brother, oh my brother, who have you become in the wake of all that's happened here", yeah. The entire energy of the song has that weird sad, yet hopeful regret Wu seems to carry around with him in regards to Garmadon, it's a very loving song. (X)
Fangs: Nya, the entire song carries the desperate anger she has, the longing for independence and strength. It's bitter too, in a way that reminds me of her from Rebooted to Skybound. "I am not your highness, a damsel left helpless by fright, I am a lioness, fierce as I walk through the night", "a man will never know his bride"...and well, she was a bride once, wasn't she? (X)
That's it for TFIHWG actually, I know, sad sad ratio but I am also not suprised because a lot of the songs on this album are rather specific.
Safe Ship, Harbored:
New Colors: this one is really simple, Lloyd, and only because it reminds me about how consistently stressed he is lol. (X)
The Crooked, The Cradle: This is a Morro song, to me. The idea of were you doomed from the start (the cradle), or was this purely because of the choices you made? The line "can anyone hear me? The crooked are smiling, they know me the best" strongly reminds me of him and the Preeminent. (X)
(Additionally, this came to me as i was writing this section but I could also see this song being Garmadon coded.)
Caleb Trask: Oni Lloyd! The entire song is about the concept of having 'bad in your blood' and how you simply have to embrace it. That you cannot let it chain you, that love will bring you back. Reminds me of him. (X)
I Ain't Done: if you look at this from a purely conceptual level and energy wise, this song is very Morro. It's got his vengeful, jealous and vicious return from the dead to wreck havoc vibes lol, the lyrics in a literaly sense, however, do not fit. (X)
We're nearing the end now! kind of! 4/12 ratio.
Here I Am: Live From The Listening Room:
High Horse: Jaya, actually. From Rebooted to Skybound, from Nya's pov. Mostly, I connect it to that weird, unhealthy desperation Jay had for Nya and Nya's desire to be free of it, her own self. "You're a sweet heart, you're a curse, you're a passing grade on a low, low bar, you've got your eyes open, I know your worth, but I've got so many things in my hungry, hungry heart", sums it up pretty well. (X)
Here I Am: This one's Cole, but it's a bit of a mixture on why. First up, it's again DOTD era Cole with all his being forgotten angst and anxiety. Secondly, and maybe more painfully, it really reminds me of his and Lou's relationship early on. Neglected child core, and all that ("I promised myself I'd learn to be the one who leaves, with no more roots to tie me down, it's just a different kind of lonely"). The last verse is strongly reminiscent of his pure stubbornness, too. (X)
Queen Of Nothing: Solidly Harumi, a lot on vibes and mood. It's got a dark, sort of unsatisfied sound to it. The chorus screams her , "Isn't this what you wanted? Time sure feels like it's running out, just finish what you started, queen of nothing wearing such a heavy crown." (X)
Sowing Seeds: this one's a bit more general, it reminds me of Possession, the season. It's also a very moody song, having a tired, haunted sort of energy. It also fits nicely into the theme of consequences in Possession. The first verse ("still as a lake long after the wind is gone, in the face of a thief mashing ground to mud, still as a street long after the work is done, as he gnashes his teeth, as he cuts it up, cuts it up") heavily reminds me of Morro. (X)
Hollow Moon: fairly simple, Hollow Moon reminds me of Cole's fear on DOTD. It's got that spooky and paranoid sort of energy. (X)
The Wolf: this both a Harumi and Morro, bearing that bitter, self destructive energy. (X)
Now, that concludes all the albums thus far, and I know I sad we'd leave off on HIA:LFTLR, however, I am a lair. There's a couple songs that aren't on albums that's be a shame not to mention.
Margaret: this is Misako, in her loss of her husband, and her trails to find a way to fix things. "She's breaking her knuckles on truths that keep her awake, and she's tired but her jaw is set, she won't lose any more of the heart she still has left, so she says a prayer pulls the covers near and waits, Margaret won't sleep tonight." Lovely song. (X)
Scars: this is a newly released song! I believe it connects back to Never Love An Anchor, and as such, it fits Lloyd very well. Specifically in relation to Garmadon, post revival. It so so fits all that anger in him at his dad ("cause I was born with a whole in my heart, yeah, we were fucked from the start, tell me it's inevitable I'd end up with scars from falling down, down, we were always meant to fall apart"). (X) (X) (<- the second is a live audio recording that is personally my favorite!)
Okay, no we're done! Anyways, if you read all the way down here I hope any of this made sense. This is a little bit of a love letter to The Crane Wives and Ninjago, I spent hours doing this lol. If you haven't heard any or some of these songs, please do listen to them!! Every song mentioned should have an accompanying link. Anyways, time to end this stupidly long post, please share if you have any thoughts or connect songs differently!!!!!!!!

I know it’s a random question but how do you feel about crackships? I have no hobbies and make random pairings of people who aren’t in the same universe 😭. Yet I feel like I’m the only one who does that- but imagine fnafhs crackships 🤔.
Friend, buddy, pal- one of my top 5 ships in FHS is Freddeak. I'm very much a crackship guy! Not so much crossover ships, though... I find them kind of hard to work with, especially when both universes have very different rules and systems. Tho I do have a few, usually because I find someone who's into it and makes super cool fanart to attracts me to it (Like Chase Young x First Ninja thanks to @drawnfamiliarfacesamili) or because a crossover fandom formed that caught my eye (Like with the Secret Trio orr Nicktoons United... Jake/Danny and Danny/Manny are so good...). I don't think I have any FHS crossover ships, though. But I would be interested in your ideas for those.
Besides, I'd say the FHS fandom is pretty cool about crackships? At least here in Tumblr. No one's been shitty to me when I've posted about any of my more obscure ships, nor have I seen anyone else being attacked over it. If you have any crackships in particular you want to talk about, you can post about them, or send an anon here if you're shy. But I think we're all pretty cool about crackships here :b

You would look good in red - part 3 / Victor Zsasz x OC
I'm also on ao3: link
Tumblr media
Chapter 3: Alley
Gotham wasn't a safe place at night - it was a sentence that Lisa often heard from citizens with broad criminal record with whom she had dealt in the daily line of duty. She always considered this saying completely inaccurate, because it insinuated that Gotham was ever safe. Raised in the East End, she knew how little truth there was in it. Watching her peers and neighbors losing themselves in the web of criminal life was one of the reasons why she became a police officer in the first place. People had different motivations in life, different reasons to go down the wrong path, but in the end they were the ones who were making the choices. Lisa herself was an example that being born in a place with poor life prospects for the future was not a death sentence, and she was willing to argue with anyone who thought otherwise.
Lisa was reminded of this saying this evening a bit later, after she and her partner caught a teenager trying to steal a car. They spotted him during their night parole, in the supermarket parking lot, as he was prying with a crowbar at the driver-side door. As soon as the boy noticed them, he dropped the tool and took off running to escape. Lisa let go in pursuit after him, her partner right behind her. The boy was young, he might have been a teenager, and nothing awaited him except a lecture, maybe they would scare him a bit at the police station while he would be waiting for his parents or guardians, but it was a lesson he had to learn. Sparing no effort on her feet, Lisa dashed ahead, weaving between the familiar corners and allies of East End. The kid however was faster, the adrenaline buzzing in his veins apparently added him wings. Reaching a dead end between buildings, the boy started to climb the fence and leapt over it like a ninja, to disappear into the depths of the dark alley. Lisa stopped by the fence panting heavily, realizing that the boy had escaped her. Struggling to catch her breath, she tried to recover from her spontaneous night cardio. She must have left her partner far behind, because she was here alone. Or he, seeing little chance of success in the chase, let go of it in the middle.
Again…
Lisa leaned against the fence and looked around at the surrounding buildings. She knew where she was, it was a narrow alley at the back of the nightclub that belonged to one of the most wanted criminals, Roman Sionis, whom she happened to have seen two weeks earlier in the courtroom. A slight rumble of muffled music coming from inside of the club was mixing with the sounds of the evening city. As she looked into the glaring light of a lonely street lamp, sparsely illuminating the dark alley, an unpleasant feeling of unease passed over her. She was alone in an empty alley, and Gotham at night was not a safe place. She rebuked herself for this sudden reminder of this laconic phrase. Suppressing the irrational fear, she moved ahead. Only then, in the diffused light, she spotted someone. At first glance, it was a man of medium height, leaning against the wall by the back exit to the club. Lisa's hand reflexively went to the holster on her hip where she held her gun. It didn’t take much time to identify the mysterious silhouette. Victor Zsasz, her recent arrestee, who, despite their brief encounter, found his way to embed in her memory.
"Good evening, officer." he said with his usual emotionless tone. He held a lit cigarette in his hand. 
"Mr. Zsasz.” 
He must have been watching her for some time. How had she not noticed him? 
His presence had something disturbing, this man had a unique aura. The thought that she had a weapon with herself and was not defenseless was comforting, but he could also have one.
And he certainly did. 
Too many police officers have been killed in the backstreets of this city just because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, it came through Lisa’s mind and a cold shiver went through her.
"Everything alright?" He asked, as if he was reading her mind. 
"It's fine. My partner is waiting for me just behind the corner."
It wasn't true, she had no idea when her partner was now. It was possible that he had let go of the chase halfway and was now waiting for her on the main street. Egotistical asshole. 
Zsasz squinted his eyes and lazily glanced at the end of the alley, while taking a puff of the cigarette. There was no one to be seen there.
"I'm sure he is." A hint of a playful note in his indifferent voice. 
A moment of silence fell as the two stood still, staring at each other. As if keeping Zsasz in sight would somehow keep her safe. Zsasz unhurriedly exhaled the smoke and asked in an altered voice. It was low, more private. He wasn’t threatening her, but it was an indication that he might. And that it wouldn’t be pleasant. It was this question to which there was no good answer.
"You got lost?”
His words hung in the air, awakening all Lisa’s alarms. Her internal warning mechanism was beeping with red diodes, sensing potential danger. What was she still doing here? She shouldn't have been here in the first place, she shouldn't have entered this alley alone, she shouldn't have talked to Zsasz. Why didn’t she let the kid go, they wouldn't have locked him up anyway? This whole chase was reckless and dangerous. She wasn't a Batman to pull off solo actions. Her breathing quickened and her heart began to pump blood faster.
"I was chasing this kid. I believe you saw the whole race."
For some reason, she felt the need to explain herself. 
"I saw nothing."
Zsasz took a drag on his cigarette again and let the smoke out through his nose. His dark eyes watched her closely, not leaving her face.
"I saw nothing."
He wasn’t doing anything extraordinary, he was just looking at her with those dark, piercing eyes that were taking her breath away. Even though he almost didn’t move since the moment she noticed him, his calming attitude was only a facade, hiding a real monster inside. She saw some of his cases in work, she saw the photos and knew what he was capable of doing. And yet, he stood still close to her, totally free. Last time at least he wore handcuffs.
A thought came to her mind, if he wanted, he would be able to do anything to her. Her heart was beating like crazy.
A familiar voice calling her name in the distance was her rescue. A dark, indistinct silhouette of her partner appeared at the end of the alley. Both Lisa and Zsasz looked in that direction. 
"I'm gonna get going." She cleared her throat. Suddenly speaking caused her trouble.  
Zsasz didn't respond, just stared at her. 
"Well, have a good night Mr. Zsasz." she said as she was walking away. 
"You too, officer."
He sent her a look that followed her until she disappeared at the end of the street.

Omi stayed because he wanted to see how it would end Randy stayed so that if something happened, Omi wouldn't see or hear something that neither he nor anyone else could explain, so as not to traumatize him again
And also when I googled poses, Pinterest gave me this

Temptation Touched My Tongue
Sefikura Week 2023 | Day 3 - Umbrella
Fandom: FF7
Characters: Sephiroth, Cloud Strife, unnamed wall market denizens
Ship: Cloud Strife x Sephiroth
Wordcount: 800
Summary: Sephiroth has used many innocuous objects as a weapon before, but somehow never an umbrella. Sephiroth is lucky enough to witness Cloud doing so.
Sephiroth finds himself below the plate. Apparently Genesis “absolutely needs” special edition loveless merchandise with a surprise limited release, but he’s bad at time management. Angeal had been smart enough to run away and take Zack with him before Genesis roped him into this “errand.” The city’s not what he has been told to expect; vibrant in a way that few things in his life has been. Although they could not be more different, the Wall Market thrums with a chaos that reminds him of being on the Wutai front.
The Wutai front had been a natural ecosystem warm, temperate, brimming with too much nature and malicious with the threat of enemy ninjas crawling out of the fauna. Midgar is its antithesis as an overpopulated metropolis with too much smog and the plate to accurately assign ‘weather’ to, there was very little nature but it was overflowing with too many people. In Wall Market people were crammed in together to the point that some of them became an unnatural extension of the environment, they clamored for attention in attempts to peddle their wares and entice new customers into their establishment.
It makes his head hurt. Sephiroth will have vengeance both for Angeal’s unexpected betrayal and Genesis being more annoying than usual. Their next sparring session would be a masterclass on the efficiencies of violence.
He’s on his way back to Shinra when his attention is drawn to a bizarre sight. A young man with spiky blond hair that has a startling resemblance to a chocobo’s backside seems to be using his umbrella as an assault weapon. Sephiroth’s life is largely unpredictable and he has often been forced to creatively defend himself from surprise attacks with whatever was at hand at any given moment. As a result, Sephiroth has used many innocuous objects as a weapon before, but somehow never an umbrella.
Sephiroth is lucky enough to witness the assault from the beginning. Chocobo Hair kicks his assailant between the legs and as the man fold in on himself, the umbrella becomes part of the equation. Chocobo Hair wields the umbrella with deadly efficiency as he informs his assailant of his misgivings. Through gritted teeth and heavy breath, Sephiroth manages to catch the sounds of him emphatically telling his assailant turned victim “I said! I! Am! Not! For! Sale!” Each word is punctuated by a fluid hit carrying the strength of the umbrella’s momentum and the young man’s anger.
Sephiroth finds himself interfering as he is afraid that Chocobo Hair might actually kill the other man, and no one else seems to be interested in helping either of them. The umbrella strikes the man one more time and then Sephiroth is there to catch it on the next upswing, stopping it. Chocobo Hair is smooth as he attempts to pull the umbrella down with his whole strength before turning on his heel to aim a kick at Sephiroth’s midriff. The kick connects as Sephiroth’s other hand is still busy with Genesis’ merchandise. It contains more strength than he expected.
Their eyes connect, and Chocobo Hairs bright blue eyes widen in surprise at seeing Sephiroth. It feels like they spend an eternity staring at each other even though it is only a scant few seconds; Sephiroth finds himself fascinated by Chocobo Hair’s eyes. They’re almost as bright as his. They’re also very expressive; it makes it easy to see his thought process when he looks at Sephiroth. First there is righteous anger at his assault being interrupted, followed by recognition, and then calculation as he considers his options, and finally determination as he turns around and runs away.
Sephiroth gives chase with no thought, but Chocobo Hair is better than Sephiroth gives him credit for. He is fast, and he is familiar with the surroundings in a way that Sephiroth is not. He uses both of these and a shrewd cleverness to his advantage as he parkours across the city’s structures to escape Sephiroth. As the chase goes on, Sephiroth finds himself becoming more interested in the young man. Sephiroth rarely has cause to function in such a packed environment and he is aware enough that Shinra would not appreciate him wrecking their city, so he is essentially forced to bulldoze through people as he chases after Chocobo Boy.
Eventually and unfortunately, Chocobo Hair does escape him and Sephiroth is standing stranded in Wall Market with Genesis’ merchandise and an old umbrella. It is not easy to find someone who recognizes the boy and get his name, but Sephiroth does so nonetheless. Sephiroth leaves wall market with the man’s name floating through his head, and with the message that if he wants his umbrella he can come find Sephiroth making its way through wall market.
He looks forward to officially meeting Cloud.
Authors Note: yes this fic is named after txt's 'devil by the window' because even if this album only dropped today while i was creating and editing this fic at my friend's place i've listened to this album on loop from 11am-6pm at the current moment. like, i've listened to other music because i have headphones but you should absolutely know that this fic was written during a binge of listening to "The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION" on loop for 7 hours. Not sure if it actually affects the fic, but it is something that i want other people to know because i honestly never wanna forget this experience. i love friendship, i love my friends, i love our adhd, i hate our adhd.
