Thinking about the villains who left a lasting impression on both us and on the ninja is a journey.

Cause first you have Garmadon, the reason daddy issues exist.

Then you have Morro, the reason Wu is terrible at sharing secrets, and who also has his own issues of both an inferiority and superiority complex.

And then we have whatever went on with Harumi, the reason consequences should be considered. With her own, massive daddy issues. (Seriously, why would you ask THE Garmadon to be your dad)

Oh my GOD

One was Lloyd’s dad, one was Lloyd’s (technical??) cousin, and one was newly adopted sister (???) whose like those evil adopted step sisters in Gacha music videos. Man how did Wu and Lloyd survive in that family, and why’d Misako think they were a great family to marry into 😭

If you've got something to say, just spit it out. Sorry. I should have visited you earlier.

KISEKI: DEAR TO ME Ep. 12

[frankencanon]

Absolutely obsessed with the idea of Jiang Cheng, in the wake of the Jiang Sect's massacre, just massively overdoing it with the defensive measures in Lotus Pier —

It was bad enough when they were first rebuilding, but in the nearly two decades that followed every single time Jiang Cheng had a nightmare about his family dying and/or Lotus Pier burning down, he would immediately get up and start working on the defensive arrays, or the evacuation plans, or so on...

People think of the Impure Realm as an impenetrable fortress, but after Lotus Pier burnt down and was rebuilt? No other sect could stand a chance against Jiang Cheng's obsessive paranoia.

Lotus Pier has everything from defensive arrays, to evacuation plans and saferooms, to secret codes and signals known only to the disciples, to hidden underground and underwater tunnels, to booby traps, barriers, poison gas, etc etc etc...

Never again will Lotus Pier be sieged…not if Jiang Cheng has anything to say about it.

saying out loud would make it more real and would make it hurt so much more when it's inevitably taken away

JOY OF LIFE 2 (2024) | Ep 29

[silasplaskett]

kenny wanting to move to colony house makes me so sad in a way because like leaving the house where he lived with his parents is like symbolic of him finally actually being out on his own. but also is a positive decision on his part because colony house is its own community and no one there will leave him by himself especially while hes grieving theres always going to be someone kind and understanding nearby

【吾兒帶我去吃飯】 11. 6. 2024

Happy day for us; he's off the day before yesterday. a week ago he told me the date, he will come over studio and then he buys dinner for me. In one week, my daughter will go back to Taiwan. Time flies so fast. She has been traveling alone to New Zealand for a year. and what I think ...

當孩子們的生存能力更強及他們生活的腳步更加穩健時... 總是能看見那些艱苦的日子，我曾經不計代價和不顧生死的投進湖裡的石子有了美妙的漣漪，並且湖面依舊平靜及其周邊的倒影，每日都描繪出屬於它自己的美。 感謝天主 🙏

(When the children's ability to survive is stronger and their pace of life becomes more steady... I can always see those hard days. The stones I once threw into the lake regardless of the cost and life and death have wonderful ripples, and the lake surface Still calm and its surrounding reflections depict its own beauty every day. Thank God 🙏)

ps. 兒啊，你給媽咪帶來好吃的蛋糕 🍰，隔天早上我吃了，真的很好吃。因有你們滿滿的愛。感恩！🙏🏼 Thanks 🫶

WWX stans saying he would have been the best uncle and Jin Ling's favorite uncle like we didn't see the man see Jin Ling go through the most horrifying event in his life and witness his uncle (who was also one of his two guardians) painful, traumatizing death after the said uncle was dismembered and after some really earth-shattering truths being unraveled, and LEAVE THE BOY THERE CRYING WHILE STARING AT HIS UNCLE'S COFFIN to go fuck in the bushes with LWJ. Like not an hour after the incident, or even a quarter of an hour. no. right after that whole shitshow happened!

(And JL accusingly asked JC why he let them go! JL...my boy... the real question is why did THEY choose to go?! When WWX had a traumatized nephew & a literally and figuratively bleeding brother to take care of, and LWJ had a traumatized brother who seconds ago WAS WILLING TO DIE WITH JGY and LWJ hadn't yet made sure that LXC's willingness has ceased since!)

And then WWX didn't even go to check on JL after that! While JL was a 15 y/o sect leader dealing with the power vacuum left after the scandals of the previous sect leader who was also coincidentally the Xiandu, & going through a power struggle with one of the worst sects out there.

WWX asks after Jin Ling from the Lan Juniors instead of going to see him himself! When he next sees JL it's said that the news of his struggles had reached Wangxian in Gusu, meaning that WWX hadn't dropped by to check on JL to hear of these from JL himself and he hadn't dropped by to check in on him even after hearing these news! He was only there bc JL had invited the Lan Juniors for a field trip!

WWX shows his love with drastic, big, dramatic, sacrificial acts like giving his golden core to JC or transferring Jin Ling's curse to himself, but since he himself loves to run away from his traumas and his responsibilities, he's not someone who can be counted on to help his loved-ones with their traumas and responsibilities. He didn't do it with Jiang Cheng and he didn't do it with Jin Ling. He never even talked to Wen Ning about Wen Qing and the Wen Remnants. (Or how WN feels about being a zombie forcefully brought back to life in a world that hates and fears him)

Maybe diplomacy is not his strength and he'll only make things worse by trying to help JL with his sect leader duties, but it wouldn't have taken anything from him if he had only stayed by JL at least for the night after the Guanyin Temple, not even doing anything, but just being there. (And I understand that narratively it might have been a point in the story where some readers might want to see the main couple sail off into the sunset together, but all it would have taken for the main couple to be shown as less of a dick was adding a phrase like "the next morning..." or even "later that day" or something like that before writing about them disappearing into the sunset...or the bushes.)

I love Wei Wuxian, but post-resurrection Wei Wuxian was really...not particularly an ideal family member.
