#kai and zane are but. they are so so little

[rusted-fairy-wings]

I’m honestly really surprised to see people vibing with this…. SO UH YEAH HERE’S MORE LITTLE BITS SINCE I HAVE BEEN ASKED

-they’re not all the exact same age, so here’s how I would sort them based on my HCs. Kai, Cole, and Zane are all third years/juniors. Of these 3, even tho Zane is always depicted as the oldest in the fandom, I kinda like the idea of him being the youngest. Pixal and Skylor are both seconds years/sophomores. Jay and Nya are first years/freshmen. Lloyd is a second year/sophomore in high school.

-RGB siblings is absolutely canon because they do in fact mean the world to me. Lloyd is straight up their adopted little brother in this AU. Kai purposely picked a uni only a couple hours from home so he could be closer to Nya and Lloyd even after moving out.

-The entire cast of this AU makes fun of Kai because he hates school the most, but because he wants do law, he’ll be in school longer than all the rest of them. Kai struggles the most in uni in general as school doesn’t come easily to him.

-Jay and Nya met in a calculus class in their first semester of uni and just immediately hit it off. They do not care whenever someone says something along the lines of “you know a lot of relationships from your first year don’t last”. They are convinced once they do get together that they’re simply built different.

-Pixal is actually closest in age to Jay. Sh skipped a grade and was ahead on school. She’s the opposite of Kai—school comes very naturally to her, it’s social stuff she’s not always the best at.

-The uni is quite far way from Cole’s hometown. He’s still got a rocky (sorry earth pun) relationship with Lou that he’s working on fixing. He decided he really needed space to be on his own and figure stuff out. Lou isn’t a bad father, they’re just still repairing things.

-Skylor, Nya, and Pixal do in fact have girls’ nights/study sessions. Skylor makes snacks. Pixal organizes everything and makes sure they stay on task. Nya is in charge of the fun activities during their breaks, like what shows they watch or games they play. Said girls’ nights get very chaotic. The boys totally haven’t had to get them out of dumb situations before.

Ty for giving me an excuse to yap, genuinely surprised some people like this!!!!

literally nobody asked for this butttttt….

Here are my HCs for what everyone would be studying if I were to do a Ninjago College AU because if I have to suffer so do they!

Zane: culinary arts. I think if he didn’t have to worry about saving the world all the time, he’d love to just cook for people as a job.

Nya: engineering. Specifically mechanical engineering. She’s already got a clear inclination for it, and we love to see a woman in STEM.

Jay: engineering again, but this time electrical. I feel like that one’s for obvious reasons. Just combines his inventing/STEM interests with his powers.

Cole: double major in psychology and art. I’m a big fan of artist Cole, and it’s something I think he’d really focus on if he had the time. Psychology because he’s grounded enough to consider the idea that art may not lead him to a lucrative career even if he wants it to. He wants to help others. Specifically I could see him studying child psychology.

Kai: hear me out—political science but with the intention of going to law school. He has a very strong sense of justice and would want to make things he sees wrong with the world right. He wants to be the type of lawyer that sticks up for the little guy.

Lloyd: sorry but we’re skipping Lloyd because in a modern/college AU there’s no tomorrow’s tea and he’s still in high school. He has no clue yet what he wants. He’s considering studying astronomy though. But he’s kinda like “this is a future me problem” and a bit scared to think about his future.

Pixal: computer science girly!! She loves coding and finds it relaxing, so she thinks “why not do this?”. She accidentally stays up til 3 am sometimes because she’s genuinely having so much fun on her studies.

Skylor: like Zane, culinary arts. She wants to own her own restaurant one day. Zane is the first of our 6 ninja she meets and befriends in this AU because of this.

please 🙏🏼

i'm assuming this is referring to the prompt share thing (albeit one i did like...four years ago asdfgh) so if not forgive me!! but :

Pixal frowns. “Is…someone playing music?”

Skylor pauses, listening. It actually does sound like someone’s playing music, oddly enough. A faint, tinny melody that sounds a lot like—

“My ringtone!” she yelps. 

Skylor tears her phone from her backpack, her fingers shaking as it buzzes wildly — for the first time in months, the screen is lighting up in bright little notifications. She keys in the password and her phone immediately begins yelling at her. 

“You have four hundred and fifty-two missed calls from Lloyd, six hundred and seventy-five unread messages from Kai, a thousand and fifty-two missed messages in Pajama People Group Chat, sixty-two missed calls from Chen’s Noodle House—”

“Oh FSM,” Skylor says faintly. 

“Open the group chat,” Pixal demands. “See if anyone will respond.”

Tapping on the terrible little cartoon ninja icon, Skylor flinches back as their group chat erupts in countless messages. At quick glance, most of them are from Lloyd — then Kai, Cole, Nya, and—

“Zane!” Pixal’s expression lights up the happiest Skylor’s seen her in months. “Skylor, please—”

“I’m texting, I’m texting,” she says, fingers frantically typing. 

“Please tell Zane: I am perfectly fine. Do not start talking to walls again. I am on my way back.”

“I…am…perfectly…fine…” Skylor mutters. “No…wall convos…”

redrawing the 'jay i'm still here' art and i think i improved + a s6 jay thing idk if i'll finish lmao

[thefangirlinsideofme]

I just think it's really interesting how, when Zane died, Kai shut off, got drunk and violent. But when Nya 'died', Kai shut off and went to find other kids he hadn't failed yet. Nya was his little sister, he raised her, taught her everything he could and in the end, it didn't help. She was gone. He'd failed to protect her. So he channeled his anger at Kalmar and Wohjira and all the villains that kept on threatening his family and tried to help the new generations by teaching them to have no mercy because that's how the villains he encountered operate.

And by his willingness to come back so easily when Cole and Lloyd come a-knocking, we see, that yes he isolated, but maybe it wasn't his choice this time. Maybe he left because everyone else did and now that he had time, he got himself a bunch of new siblings to prepare for all the bad things in the world and this time he would not fail. Shows his growth of character in comparison to the role he took on when Zane died. Still unhealthy but better than Drunk Underground Fight Club.

idk i just think that's neat.

but yes, on another note, I really wanted Kai to lose his shit at Jay way sooner. He was Nya's brother and Jay really made it seem like he was the only one who lost someone. So yeah, Kai should've handed his ass to him the moment Jay started accusing everyone of having forgotten Nya up in that lighthouse.

Kai can't sadness, but he can anger.

Im SO annoyed seabound Kai just did not care about Nya TURNING INTO THE OCEAN likeee a few offhanded comments here or there but truly no REAL reaction

[aroninshonour]

Anyone else love watching ninjago out of content videos because it'll go from Garm brushing his teeth with a knife to an elevator blowing up to Nya dying(again) to Zane turning on his funny switch to Kai talking about Wu's moving snake beard while under that venomari spit stuff to the Jay standing in the darkleys elevator to a Zane being a detective to Cole screaming in yangs temple to Jay almost falling asleep in the elevator to an elevator getting exploded again to Kai freaking out about Jay not freaking out to Jay constantly saying "Brou-Bruoo goo Goouuuu" to Kai proposing to J-

[saline-coelacanth]

This meme immediately made me think of BE!Oppo, it just fits them super well

[denkilightning]

also i love how much jay hated every second of the quest to FSMs tomb except for flying. literally the only thing he was actually excited about throughout the entire journey until he got lloyd back.

[jays-supersonic-dynamo]

and i never stopped thinking about drawing them. never ever forever. happy 3 years‼️‼️

( og post - 2020 / redraw 1 - 2021)

[neptunic-saturn]

Today I asked my friend which ninja to draw and they said blue so I drew jay

Also extra art

[spork-supremacy]

Feeling pretty bored so I think it'd be fun for asks to be sent in.

I don't know if there should be a type of theme here here I'm just a person who loves answering questions.

granted this is a very ninjago centric blog so...

[localguy2]

(sorta DR spoilers, And also a headcanon)

Okay hear me out.

THEY'RE COOKING BUDDIES-

IMAGINE THIS SCENARIO-

Zane finds out Arin makes really good pies and he starts helping Arin out, by giving him tips on how to improve them even more for the next Crossroads Carnavel, so maybe Arin can finally win for once.

But along the way, Arin shows interest in Zane's food after staying with the others for a few days, they need time to cool down after the whole "Batteling your way out of Imperium" thing yknow.

So he asks Zane how he does it.

And this is Zane's dream come true because someone FINALLY is actually going to learn from his cooking skills.

And every single day when Zane starts making food, he calls Arin over and just starts teaching him to do stuff.

[legogender]

caught up finallyyyy. that shit was FIRE

[doylldonmagar]

Ninjago headcanons. A couple years ago I posted a bunch of headcanons on Pinterest, so I decided to copy all the ones I could find over to Tumblr. So these are all mine, you may notice quite a few are about Zane, that's because I was a major Zane fan. I may reblog this with my more recent ones later. Hope you like them!

Lloyd is constantly finding stray cats and dogs and the little kid in him falls in love and he constantly brings them home and begs Wu to let him keep them. Wu always says no, but Lloyd secretly feeds them, and the Ninja find out and help him.

Jay and Zane have a lot of inside jokes. All the ninja have inside jokes with Zane bc Zane sees everything and makes everyone feel good about themselves so when Jay falls in the parking lot and Zane sees, it becomes a joke between the two of them and Zane will never tell anyone that Jay fell in the parking lot bc he is hecka loyal.

Zane is one of those people who are inzanely (did you see what I did there?) good at telling stories and reading books aloud, so he sometimes reads books to the ninja, and Lloyd loves it and it takes him back to when he was a kid and on nights when Lloyd can't sleep he'll go wake up Zane and Zane will tell him stories until he falls asleep. And some of the ninja complain about Zane reading to them bc they can't play video games while he does, but they all secretly love it.

Lloyd and Zane are super close.

Lloyd really doesn't like pictures of himself, so he avoided family pictures whenever he could, but he managed to get that one with just his dad and him, and he didn't really like it until his dad was banished and then he wished he had more pictures of the two of them.

Lloyd talks to himself when he's alone and once Zane was in the next room, and Cole overheard Lloyd talking to himself so Cole asked him about it and Zane covered for him saying that Lloyd was talking to him.

When Lloyd was still a kid, he would wake up in the middle of the night and wake Kai up and they’d go out onto the deck of the bounty and just talk, sometimes read a comic together. Then when Lloyd would fall asleep, Kai would put him back in bed.

Zane has perfected his cooking and can look at a picture of food or read the name of a dish and make it. If one of the other ninja follows the recipe and Zane doesn't, Zane's will still taste better.

Zane is always the butt of the jokes and the straight man bc he always falls for it.

Zane always covers for everyone. Jay breaks a vase while dancing? Zane will fix it/buy a new one/or say he broke it. Kai breaks the TV after losing a game? Zane will fix it or say he broke it. Sometimes people are sure he didn't do it, but he won't say who did.

Zane is the cool parent figure, Cole is the protective but responsible oldest sibling, and Kai, Jay, Nya, and Lloyd are the reckless younger siblings.

Lloyd will skateboard at 2am.

Lloyd loves cooking and Zane loves helping him, so Lloyd's like, one hobby is cooking and is pretty good at it. edit: Lloyd is terrible at it. Loves cooking but can burn anything, might burn down the kitchen while he's at it. But he's really good with spices, and always knows the right combination and amount.

Zane drinks whatever. He'll be busy will something and ask one of the others to bring him a drink and they bring him whatever they want. Once, Kai wanted to see how Zane would react to alcohol so he brought Zane vodka (don't ask me why they had it) and Zane just drank a lot of it and moved on so they always test him with random things: soda with hot sauce in it, bourbon, fruit punch, whatever. They even take turns choosing what to give him.

Zane never gets mad at ANYONE. Not even Wu when they find out he was hiding something again. He is easy to talk to, so when one of the ninja messes up something of his, it's easy for them to apologize and he always talks them through whatever they're going through.

Lloyd watches Zane cook and so Zane offers to help him learn so now they cook together and for Lloyd's birthday Zane gets him a purple apron.

I don't know why Zane.. idk what happened but I'm too tired to try and fix it

Also no clue how lighting... lights, and I refuse to try and figure it out right now.
