ngl it’s very funny to me how fanworks treat the fall as SUPER DUPER SERIOUS and threatening considering all the other shit that happens. from a purely conceptual standpoint “guy falls off boat” would rank wayyyyyy below “guy channels so much Godly Creation Power he esplodes” and “guy thrown into volcano” and “guys are dramatically crushed between the immovable hands of giant mech beast” and “girl tragically poisoned as casualty of the heroes winning” yet its Guy Fell that they went with. hilarious. i mean that completely seriously i love how much the trilogy tried to walk back the silly stuff and give them like, actual human limitations and injuries but only bc the juxtaposition is comedy gold. fall damage was possible but only then. in the pilots they got flung fifty feet into stone walls by their dragons and walked away fine

#text✨#ninjago #and like it’s not even the oni gas that fanart n fic makes a huge deal of???#sure some of it is and that makes sense but the amount of stuff i see going “oh i’m gonna take it seriously cole must be SO fucked up”#i get why and glad you’re having fun but it’s like.#okay it’s exactly like idw suddenly deciding sonic can sprain his ankle suddenly.#guy walks away from explosion unscathed and breaks his leg stepping off a curb #old post i excavated from the drafts but i STAND BY IT it’s so so so funny bc of the comparison #fall damage existed only in the oni trilogy just like how real guns only existed in skybound
