Dishonor

[Location: Multirealm sharehouse, backyard, training ground]

Kagetsu with his new weapons: uhh...so...why did you guys call me here?

Tormak: hmm, we will not sugar coat this so...we will get right to the point

Lord Ras: your style lacks any honor

Dbk: oh any respect for battles

Skalidor: a blaster, breakdancing?

Worriz: and what's with the whole not getting close nonsense

Kagetsu: ah...you guys saw the latest chapter of my world...I simply just imagined it and I got these, plus why are you complaining, they make some more sense at least

Tormak: yes, but your last weapon at least had a blade for close combat

Lord Ras: and what if something were to happen with these little toys, hm?

Kagetsu: whaddya mean?

Dbk: *cracks knuckles* if you wish to survive in a battle you must learn to fight without your weapons

Worriz: can't always hide behind a bunch of trinkets runt

Skalidor: it's bite or be bitten in a real battle field

Kagetsu: ...well, if it makes a difference...I named these, Despair painters

Tormak/Lord Ras/DBK/Worriz/Skalidor: It doesn't

Kagetsu: ...okay, but you guys have guns in your worlds...so what then

Worriz: um...I think you mean blaster

Kagetsu(deadpan): no I don't

Skalidor: at least we know how to swing and hit without weapons...what can you do

<rattle rattle>

Kagetsu: this *blinds them all with paint and runs*

Tormak: <cough cough> stop! We are not <cough cough> done here!

Lord Ras bringing out his hammer: talk is clearly out of the question!

Worriz bringing out Maulus: heck yeah! Time for some action

<Lord Ras and Worriz chasing after kagetsu with their respective growls>

Dbk cracking his knuckles: I suppose we should follow suit

Skalidor: I will dig to that

<DBK and Skalidor following along>

Tormak: *defeated sigh* very well...*brings out Tygafyre* I doubt the boy would listen anyway

<tormak following suit, roaring out>

[makitosh]

Treating Laval badly = massive hate from Mako 🙏

[nyaskitten]

It's so crazy to think about how these two almost certainly come from the same realm, as part of the same tribe

chimay day 3, Emotional Moment! tormak is one of my favorites and this was a great excuse to draw him :)

[jasper-the-menace]

what r ur fave chima ships?

*cackles evilly* I am one of those people who enjoy many ships, regardless of who or how many are in it. Despite being aroace, shipping is one of my favorite things to do in fandom, though it's not the only thing I do. Off the top of my head:

Crooler X Spinlyn: I love some toxic sapphics but putting these two together somehow evens out to a perfectly healthy relationship that's detrimental to anyone else. I think this may actually be my OTP. I even call their pairing "MindWeb".

Laval X Li'ella X Cragger: Look. We get the best of every world here. Li'ella gets two boyfriends. Laval and Cragger get to work on their mutual tension. Crominus gets to seethe about his son dating not one, but TWO Lions. Everyone except Crominus wins, especially love.

Lagravis X Tormak: ...Honestly this one is just too fucking funny to me so I ship it just to laugh.

Razar X Eris X Rogon: Again, a very good trio. Rogon can even carry the other two around, one in each arm.

Li'ella X Eris: Wholesome sapphics to make up for the toxic ones above. A friend of mine on Discord ships them and I've been pondering writing for them as a treat for him. Sometimes you need to give your token cishet friend a little treat every once in a while.

Scorm X ...literally anyone at this point: Scorm is just a guy with so many fucking issues and it's very funny to me to see how he handles those issues when you add a romantic or, more commonly for Scorm, sexual angle to it. Scorm is Chima's bicycle and I know this in my heart. And I'm the Mayor of Scorpions so I'm obviously correct. (Characters that fall into this category, in order of most to probably least healthy: Gorzan, Worriz and Scolder, Laval, Sir Fangar [let Scorm fuck that old man])

Lavertus X Crunket: Crunket needs to divorce Crominus. Someone please get her away from that Croc man. And I can bet you that Lavertus would be able to pull it off.

...I'm very much a Crominus hater, as you can tell. He's just such an easy punching bag.

Rinona X Mottrot: Look. Okay. This is entirely and only based on my Tales of Chima soulmate AU because I forced the Mammoths and Scorpions to go live with the Rhinos, but these two could get along! They both would appreciate having someone to talk to who really gets them!

Gorzan X Worriz: Gorzan could teach Worriz how to chill out, and Worriz could handle beating the shit out of anyone who gave Gorzan trouble. Also, can you imagine how good scritchies behind the ear from a Gorilla feels? Maybe it's just the werewolf otherkin in me, but I'd love to get ear scritchies from Gorzan.

I probably have, like, seven dozen more because I love examining how character relationships change when you introduce romantic and/or sexual elements to their dynamics. And because it's fiction, no actual people are getting hurt when I examine the more toxic ones! It's great!

Thanks for sending this question, anon! I love chattering about Chima, even though I don't get to do it very often.

Pages 220-224...

Battle, yeah idk, lots of battle. Chima fighting for their lives and the Empire just being cruel...

[fenth-eiria]

So I also went through my old art and found some old ocs I may or may not use.

Hendrix - My guess he is a hawk, I don't remember..

Silviticus - He is a Leopard/Sabertooth hybrid, and was the son of Lundor and Stealthor.

FleeJ - Flinx's son

TJ - Fluminox and Tormak's only kid (I still ship this for some reason..)

Might add to this post if I can fucking remember the other 100 or so that 14 yr old me created.

[chimachapterbooks]

Every reference to Chima in the Everything is Awesome book I could find:

First off, our girl Eris made the cover of the book!

Then Chi Tormak and a beaver on page 20.

Cragger, Laval, and Eris can be found on page 21, though for some reason the book calls Laval Lennox?

Lastly on page 23, as the ninja are watching a movie there is a poster for season 3 of Chima.

If there are any I missed please let me know, this is such an amazing book to look at. The full title is Everything is Awesome: A Search-And-Find Celebration of Lego History.

[rayeverydangday]

I’m just gonna start saying Chima opinions now:

Liella, Flinx, Tormak, and Fluminox got way too much screen time for new characters part of what the Tommy knew was the last season of the show.

The fact that we don’t even know half of the eight main hero’s parents while Tormak got a whole episode to himself kinda pisses me off so much.

Raised like a Phoenix: Chapter 8 - Together Again

Cragger had no idea what was going on. But apparently, he died, so that was new.

Also, Chima had gotten taken over by the Hunters forcing everybody to move into the Outlands where they have been living for ten years but now, he, Laval, and all his other friends are their only hope in getting Chima back. So, no pressure, it’s not like you can die again.

Oh, yeah and he DIED!

AND EVERYONE ELSE DID TO! WHAT IS GOING ON?

Cragger stuck by Laval’s side the whole time as he gave him a tour of the town, heading closer and closer to the new croc castle. The Crocodile Beast doing the same, following the pair around and urging those who wanted to crowd them to give the revived some space.

Li’Ella went to inform Tormak of the situation, while Crooler ran ahead to tell their parents, Plovar following after his sister. (The little bird wanted to give the two princes some alone time. Giving Cragger a wink, and the croc fighting every urge to just jump in the nearby river and drift away from this conversation.)

Wait, his parents hadn’t seen him in ten years, while the last he saw them was technically a few hours ago? Since he didn’t remember anything when he died. Except for the pain that he didn’t like to think too hard about. Man, this was all intense!

“There’s where the ravens sell their stuff. That’s where the gorilla’s grow food. And there's where the wolves be their loner selves.”

“Does everyone just live together now?” Cragger asked.

A “huh” escaped Laval before he answered the question. “I… guess so. I hadn’t realized it. But yeah.”

“Hmm. This feels…”

“Like you blinked and then suddenly everything and everyone around you just decided to move on without you?” Laval suggested.

“Yeah… in a way.” Cragger mumbled. Laval took his hand, and a muffled squeak almost escaped him due to the lion’s actions. “I know this is all scary and stuff but… I’m glad you're here with me. It brings me some comfort to know that we’re in this together again.” His warm smile melted the Crocodile Prince’s heart.

“Oh, Laval. Why do you have to be so damn sappy, huh?” Cragger said, trying to cover up his embarrassment.

The lion chuckled. “Just trying to let you know how much I love you guys.”

Right. ‘You guys.’ Speaking of…

“So, you feel this thing too, right?” Cragger asked.

“All the time.” Laval practically breathed.

“Who should we find next then?” It felt like a question too cruel to ask. Which one of their friends would be brought back into the world of the living next?

Cragger guessed they chose him after Laval because of how close the swamp was to the Outlands. From there it was sort of open season for reviving buddies. Though he had a feeling finding Eris would be the hardest as she would probably be closest to the Lion Temple. Aka closest to that Saber-tooth freak and his subjects.

Well now he and Laval are freaks too…

Laval squeezed his hand in reassurance. But it seemed like he was still searching for that feeling himself.

“Well, maybe… uh… Gorzan? The trees will provide some coverage and we can use the strength.” Laval said.

The Crocodile Beast nodded.

“I shall inform the Gorilla Beast of your decision.”

Leaving the two to their own devices.

Cragger watched his beast go and realized something. Throughout the whole tour he had not seen a single lion among the mix of tribes. Which felt a little weird… and probably meant.

“Hey, Laval? Where is your tribe at?”

He might as well have declared war all over again because Laval had the same heartbroken face, he had the day the fight for chi began.

“Laval?”

While the lion hadn’t said a thing about what had happened, Cragger quickly put the pieces together. He may look dumb, but he’s not stupid.

Cragger brought him into a side hug as the lion felt like he would collapse to the floor if the crocodile didn’t anchor him. Laval leaned into him as he sighed softly.

The croc led the two to a bench near a blacksmithery as the lion wept. The sound of a hammer banging against metal drowning out his quiet crying. Cragger rubbed his back in reassurance as tears stained his brown pants. He could relate to how Laval felt, afterall his whole tribe got kidnapped by the Hunters at one point.

But they were able to be saved.

Whereas in Laval’s case, this wasn’t something that can be reversed. This was something that would have to be rebuilt overtime. And even then, it will never be the same.

“Sorry, I hope I don’t keep breaking out into tears every time someone asks me what happened.” Laval uttered.

“Don’t apologize for feeling sad.” Cragger began, as he brought the lion closer to his chest. Laval welcomed it, trying to listen to his best friend's heartbeat.

There was nothing.

“This is all just so messed up and crying about it is a perfectly okay thing to do. Because I know you're not just gonna curl up and bawl your eyes out. You're gonna fight! And keep being your wonderful self. But when you need to take a break from it all and rest, know that you will always have me. And I know the others will feel the same when they get back.”

Laval closed his eyes and focused on the pulling feeling. They should really give it a name. Perhaps lights? It felt fitting as to how each one of them made him feel.

Cragger’s light felt so cheery and warm, perhaps because he was awake and with him now. He was starting to tell who is who, though where exactly they were at was a bit hard to tell. The others still felt too distant and too deep in their sleep. Except one. It felt like it was trying to wake up, but it couldn't, as if it was stuck. Frozen.

That had to be Eris.

When the Hunters first attacked, she had been chosen because she had a “soul of a phoenix” or whatever Fluminox had said. So, it only made sense she would be… different? Yeah, that seemed like the right word for now.

But the idea of trying to get all of them felt exhausting. It had even been that long since he was revived and he already felt like he wanted to sleep for another ten years. (Though the idea of him needing to sleep did bring him comfort.) It made him feel horrible. He truly wanted to save them but… How can he help anyone when he needs help as well?

“You don’t mind if I sit out a few missions?” Laval asked, almost nervous as to what Cragger would say. The croc bright his hand from his back to his mane. As he softly played with his fur, a small purr escaped him, making Cragger chuckle.

“Of course. We have all the help we can get right here! If you need any time to yourself, or any help let us know. And we’ll be there for you.”

Laval smiled. “Thank you.”

-

After sitting in peaceful silence, Laval was finally ready to get up and lead Cragger to his parents. He brought him to what looked like a smaller version of the crocodile castle, complete with its own makeshift river that he had seen snake through the village earlier.

Cragger would be lying if he said he didn’t shed a few tears when he was reunited with parents even if for him it had only been a few hours. It was still a little heartbreaking to see how much his parents changed over the years, with new lines added to their faces and hunched shoulders. His father even needs a cane now!

When he saw his parents, he couldn’t help but wonder if he would continue to grow and change like them. Were Laval and him doomed to be fleshy zombies forever or would they grow old together?

“My son has returned and this calls for a celebration!”

“Uh- Dad maybe-”

But Cragger’s objections went unheard as many crocodiles gathered to celebrate the return of their prince.

It felt nice to see his tribe again, even meeting some new young members. While some were scared of Cragger, few little croclings were curious about his new look, some asking things like, can he still eat even with the hole in his gut? Laval stayed by his side almost the whole time, receiving his own questions and comments from curious crocodiles.

At one point during the party, Crooler pulled him aside.

“Cragger, I want to say I’m sorry.” The Crocodile Prince stumbled back at the words.

“Really?” His voice came out in a whisper. He didn’t think that Crooler was the apology type. Then again neither was he for a bit.

“Yes. I’m sorry for using that stupid plant, for making you attack the lions, and for taking advatnage of you when we thought our parents had died. I hope you can forgive me.”

…

Can he? After everything Crooler had done, was he even willing to give her his forgiveness?

“I… I don’t know if I can forgive you for everything. I appreciate your apology but after what happened it's hard to just forget about it, you know?”

Crooler nodded sadly.

“I understand.”

-

“So… you live here now?” Cragger stared in awe at the place. It felt a lot like Lavertus’s old home in the Outlands. And just like it the place felt way too big for one lion.

“Yeah… it’s big and quiet and sometimes a little creepy when you're just alone with your thoughts. But it’s home.” Laval chuckled nervously.

Cragger nodded. He could tell his best friend didn’t like being here on his own. So maybe…

“I can stay with you, if you want?”

Laval gave Cragger a face full of surprise, but it was quickly replaced with a grateful smile.

“I’d appreciate that.” Laval said, reaching out his hand.

Cragger took it. Happy he wasn’t alone.

I was listening to MBMBAM with the American Hero Horn and I was like, "wow this fic is kinda like that in a way :')"

Oh!! I never posted this here? I finished the family!

[nyaskitten]

Something so deeply offputting to me that despite both being Canadian TV shows, Ninjago and Chima only share THREE voice actors, all of which were on Chima before Ninjago. One was only archival audio, one was just doing voiceover for a non-canon short, and one has only had one appearence so far, as Euphrasia.

Meanwhile Nexo Knights and Dreamzzz are here, all sharing SEVERAL VAs amongst each other... Chima is the only Canadian Lego show without Vincent Tong or Brian Drummond up their sleeve!
