Lightning will always find a way to strike the earth. But the earth will never return its affections.

anyways, something something, generational pining, something something, unrequited love

I drew a little comic based on chapter 14 of FictionForLife_NZ’s fic, A Balance Worth Disrupting - A Ninjago AU :) Excellent story, definitely check it out if you get the chance! 💚

individual pages to click on because tumblr hates my image quality:

"Cole looks exactly like Lilly!", except, not really.

I needed a reference sheet, so while at it I tried pointing out the differences between them in my style, and I will mention them more in detail below!

I also noted some color references because I did not want to color it all instead... call me lazy I don't know.

(And I definitely did not make Lilly lighther because I hc that she got paler after getting sick, definitely...)

Well uh, so:

Lilly

- Has rounder face

- Cat eyes

- Plumper lips with a pronounced cupid's bow

Cole

- Has a more defined face

- PUPPY EYES! I am never letting go of his oni trilogy eyes EVER.

- Still has plump lips but smaller and less defined than hers

Some things I like to talk about:

- The eyes. Canonically Lilly has cat eyes while Cole had puppy eyes in Oni Trilogy and still does in the comics and on his face printing!

Their eyes are like, the main thing that sets them apart too. It's not as noticable in minifigure form, but when I convert it to human faces it makes the difference very jarring...

- Not sure about Cole, but most likely Lilly had a more uhh, puffy (?) face. I say this because when she was sick, her face did not get slimmer like for example when Maya was drained and tired. I like to believe it's because she had a fuller face.

So yeah, I say both have fuller faces but Lilly just has a more visibly chubby face.

Oh god I should've drawn Lou for better comparison....

I drew this instead of working on my other wips

GUYS WAIT JUST HEAR ME OUT...

What if I started a series about an AU where every ninja has a little sister? (So yes Nya and Kai "have a little sister")

OK YES

IM GONNA DO IT

STARTING WITH COLE OBVIOUSLY 🤭

(tw for sh!)

This gif makes me so sad I cant-

Libble "Lilly" Brookstone

Named Libble after her mom's best friend, Libber

(Yes I hc that Cole's mother and Jay's birth mother were besties)

Nicknamed Lilly because she looks exactly like her, they're basically identical apart from the fact that Libble has her dad's eyes

Her family sometimes give her the nickname "Libs" or "Libby"

(Most people acc call her Libby now)

She was the "naughty kid" and she ran away alot

Gave poor Lou lots of stress 😭

The moment Libble turned 13 (abt halfway through Possesion) she started to bunk off school and do stupid things (smoking, dr*gs, that sorta stuff)

She grew up WAY too fast

Like she rly didn't gave a shit abt Cole turning into a ghost or any of that until Day of the Departed

After DotD she had a much needed wake up call (still just age 13 at this point)

She didn't go and visit her home for the holiday and she realised just how much their family had suffered bc of Lilly's passing

So that night Libble cried herself to sleep in the crappy apartment she and her friends were camping out in

a) bc she missed her dad and big bro and b) because she knew she had seriously messed up

The next day she went back to school and finally started making an effort

She realised she really loved sketching and she also had a passion for programming/machinery/tech

She decided she wanted to pursue a career at Borg Industries before she mustered up the courage to go back to live with Lou

She apologised profusely and sobbed and begged for his forgiveness

Lou welcomed her back with open arms

Cole was skeptical of talking to her for a few days but after a week he ended up going back to visit

and he was the happiest he had ever been when he saw his baby sister had truly changed <33

They had a family dinner the following night catching up on things

During the one year gap after Hands of Time she continued to go to school and actually got an education, and regularly stayed in touch with Cole (since he was with Jay looking for Wu)

She met all the ninja just after March of the Oni and decided that Nya was her favourite (after Cole ofc)

After MotM, once Cole returned from Shintaro, his veins up his wrist/arms would sometimes pulse a faint orange. Libble liked to trace them and would always say she wished she was the one with elemental powers as a joke

By the end of Crystalized, Libble is 16!

Aaand that's her story!! Moving on to random facts abt her:

Unlike the rest of her family, Libble can't sing or dance to save her life

She'll stay up all night sketching and sketching and sketching

Cole often calls her "Libbler the Scribbler"

Whenever Lou and the Royal Blacksmiths have a performance, she always makes sure she's on the front row

She used to sh as "punishment" once she returned home, because she couldn't forgive herself for leaving her dad like that

Her classmates called her a freak because of the scars up her arms and the minute Cole found out he was PISSED

She hangs around Chen's Noodle House a lot, and she always orders the same thing: PUFFY POTSTICKERS

She smashed the TV in the monastery of spinjitzu once, because of Kai and Cole beating her in a video-game

Shes usually quite a calm and collected person, but she can also be really loud

Simillar to Lilly's locket, Libble owns a silver locket which pictures her and Cole in one photo, and Lilly and Lou in the other.

Thats all hehe, but I feel like I could've picked a better name, I had literally no ideas 😭😭

(Just to make things clear, each sister doesn't exist in the same universe, these are all gonna be seperate AUs!)

Hope yall enjoyed and I think I'll be doing either Lloyd or Kai + Nya next! <3

[angeldrawsstuffs]

Did some young Lilly and Lou because they deserve more screen time together <3

Lilly is so tall and Lou is… not short, but absolutely not Lilly’s height.

Also they’re on a beach date.

Oh man! Everyone go check out the designs and concepts below the cut! They're awesome!😃✨

long-ass post ahead so i'll put it under a cut but basically this is a ninjago superhero au with drawings explaining stuff because i couldn't get it out of my head ok lets go

it's kind of a fusion between regular ninjago, movie ninjago and superhero elements. the ninja work as a protective force of ninjago city and are in some sort of superhero training program where the dr kids are the underclassmen and some of the other realms are basically rival training programs. the main six ninja are essentially on a work study (the costume designs are very first pass here, i just wanted to get ideas onto a page and i'll work on them from there).

we'll start with zane since he was the first one i drew. when he activates his power it slows time down for him and speeds up his cognition, so he's essentially moving at 2x speed and thinking at 4x speed compared to everyone else. he can't activate it for long, however, because it very rapidly drains his body heat. his costume is designed to keep him warm and there's heating pads in the coat he can turn on and off. he's the best guy for time-critical crisis situations, but he can hold his own in a fight, too.

next is nya! she can turn her body into water, fully or partially. when she's in full water mode, she can travel through regular water as well. one of her signature moves is turning a single arm into a water whip. she also uses her water form to evade attacks as well. her suit is pretty similar to that of a scuba suit for ease of transporting and getting back into her suit when she goes in and out of her water form. she can't control water that isn't 'her', but she can move it around if that makes sense? like how we can move water with are hands but if our hands were also water. anyways she mainly works around the shoreline but can help in a lot of other situations as well. her favorite trick is instead of taking the stairs, she'll jump from a roof and turn into water before she hits the ground so she doesn't get hurt. (i'm not the most pleased with her suit since it is basically just a scuba suit, so i'll revise it to something more interesting).

onto lloyd! he can draw energy from any living thing and turn it into an energy blast. it's really simple, almost a bit too simple so i'm more open to changing it in the future. idk, if it works it works i guess. he can draw energy from things other than himself but he's paranoid of hurting others so he strictly draws energy from himself. he can blast the energy like he does in the show or he pop it when he's still holding it to maneuver himself when he's in the air. with enough concentration he can even double jump. he's kind of a generalist, working wherever he's needed, acting as a sort of comfort figure for people whenever they see him. i felt that if any of the ninja could have a costume reminiscent of their show gi, it would be lloyd.

jay's turn! whenever he generates static electricity, he stores it in his body until he releases it as a single bolt. the amount of electricity he can store is theoretically infinite, but he can only release the electricity all at once, so if he stores up too much its no bueno. periodically throughout the day he has to release whatever he's built up, which is rather annoying. once he learns how to control his output it's over for everyone, he'll be unstoppable. he used to have his regular combover hair but when his powers came in it got all curly and wild. no amount of water, gel, or brushing can tame it. his powers come with a rather neat immunity to electricity. he's a generalist like lloyd, although he skews a little towards more fights than anything else. one time the local hospital lost power and he spent three hours powering the backup generators before they got the power up and running again. he hates it, but one of the fastest ways for him to build up a charge is to rub his hair with his gloves on. he thinks it makes him look stupid. he can have a stereotypical hero costume. as a treat.

kai's turn! his is pretty basic too, but i feel like it fits him. he can light himself on fire. that's pretty much it. once the fire catches on something that isn't him he can't control it anymore, so he has to be careful about it. he has a flamethrower he uses mainly for combat, so he doesn't always go out with it on. the most useful part of his power is his immunity to fire and heat, so he responds to a lot of fire calls. however, he's not immune to smoke, so he keeps a face mask in his pack with him to combat that. since breathing fire is more of a european dragon thing rather than an eastern dragon thing, he has some knight elements in his costuming as well. tbh i'm not sure if i'm gonna keep it, ninjago is obviously very eastern-inspired and there's probably other motifs i could explore rather than medieval knight, but it was the first idea that came to mind and my main goal, again, was just to put pen to paper and get stuff down.

last and most certainly not least is cole! he can cover himself in a rocky outer skin, where the strength and durability of whatever areas that are covered are boosted. currently, he can't cover much of his body, his maximum is just about enough to completely cover both of his arms, but he's working on upping the amount. he works a lot of disaster situations, such earhtquakes, building collapsses, and other similar situations. his costume is based a lot on early 20th century mining uniforms, and same as nya it doesn't offer a lot more, so i'll do more with it in further revisions. cole is the one i've thought the most about with the story. his mother was a very well-known hero who protected ninjago city as well, but she sustained and eventually succumbed to an injury she sustained on the field. cole wants to follow her footsteps, but lou is pretty opposed to him going into the same field that killed his mother. he's being allowed to do the work study, but just barely, and it's an unspoken rule that lou will pull him from the work study if he gets injured whatsoever.

obviously i'm still working out a lot of the kinks but the powers, which are the most interesting part to me, are pretty much done and dusted! i have so many characters thought out you wouldn't believe. pixal and morro should be next, but after that i'm not sure. lmk if there's any specific character you wanna see done next because chances are i've thought them through!

[iriyaices]

They look like a lovely family I'm sure nothing can ruin it

[uttaqa]

I hate mustaches. 🔊

[spicyicymeloncat]

Cole’s dad is not a ninja ally

Post-it + sketchbook doodles 💖

Doodling with a pen is fun, try it out ! [Long post, kinda]

(Please do click for better quality + notes!l

Cole + Kai S11-onward designs!

First comes boredom, second comes redesigns. The flag that's wrapped on Cole's left arm is the demisexual flag! Also, Kai being aquarius ♒ (self projection much, Momo ???)

Underrated duo + Harumi/Rumi!

(NOT SHIP) Underrated duo fr! Just a reminder that they can obliterate Ninjago at any time, but i guess we don't talk about that (/lh) Are they the tsunami duo? mud duo? Holy shit, they're actually powerful duo?

For context: I just wanna see Harumi/Rumi with shorter hair. I figured that royal family kinda forbid her to cut her hair, until S8, where Harumi/Rumi just say "FUCK IT!" and cuts it off as messy as they can. The addition of red horns is pretty common, but i like it :)

Terraforma AU: Cole creates a creature arc

Ever since that scene in S13 where Cole taps into his inner peace and is able to levitate (?) some of the rocks around him, i just KNOW that there SHOULD BE a potential that Cole can make kind of a giant golem-like magma creature and control it. Wouldn't that be cool?? Its joints are connected with lava and is made of the ground beneath him. Ninjago writers pLEASE, LET COLE MAKE HIS OWN GOLEM. Also happens in the Terraforma AU btw!!

They're drunk??? (CW // alcohol)

A friend requested me to doodle Ronin and Dareth and so, i did! The second doodle of Cole and Lou just comes to mind right after the first doodle. I feel like the two only drinks with friends or during celebrations. Lou will become more chatty while Cole looks lost most of the time, definitely needs supervision.

[luminary-life]

Just wanted to draw the scene with Lilly and Lou from the new shorts
