Nexo fandom please accept my vision
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is for my own Nexo knights rewrite but it starts with the majority of the gang being friends except clay who’s “too busy with becoming the greatest knight of all time to have friends”. Over the course of the series they all learn to care about each other and stuff and clay’s whole character arc is just strength in numbers, teamwork is a valuable skill etc etc.

Hello nexo knights fandom!! HELLO HI HELLO!! ITS SO NICE TO INTERACT WITH YOU ALL WITHOUT RANDOM SHENANIGAN POSTS!!
Tumblr media
I should think of a super epic amazing s4 rewrite because the one we got sucked 👎👎👎
IDK I just think some minor changes (making grey knight alot more interesting instead of just.. a stupid ass rock that’s only evil for 2 episodes.)
I dunno, I guess Gray knight in general pisses me off with the way they’re just.. a horribly written antagonist. (despite my blog name being named after gray knight, I horribly hate the way they’re written.)
(Also I have a really bad habit of using hcs when talking about characters, hence the they/them-ing of grey :3)
We just need the less rushed writing, especially for ruina/wanda being merloks sister etc.. the whole think STINKS. I can no longer defend s4, and I wish I had the motivation to do so..

If you could rewrite the whole season of Nexo Knight, what will you change it to make it silly and yet very serious and well-done character development for some specific character?

It would be such a good ship bc I hc Axl likes to look after people (he’s the oldest child of his family and is doted on by his village, there’s a reason why he’s popular), and since he knows how to cook he probably does other domestic chores for the knights like laundry and shit (because everyone else lives like a college student who can’t cook or sleep).
And so the dynamic is someone with a healthy lifestyle (Axl), and someone with no semblance of a balanced diet or sleep schedule (Clay). Bonus points if Axl helps Clay get better and in return Clay shows Axl fighting tips and stuff.
The only character i haven't considered shipping with clay is axl and maybe i should

shit i forgot to post the first chapter before i left my bad
also shout out @/ p-s-yokubo for being my beta reader!!!
One hundred and fifty years wasn’t really long, not at Knightons Knights’ Academy. Peace had thrived in Knighton for centuries, monsters were a thing of the past even a hundred and fifty years ago all that remained of the inhuman creatures was a few weak stragglers at the edges of civilization. But it seemed as if it didn’t matter if there were monsters or not, a threat to the realm or peace, there would always be knights in Knighton just as the sun would rise every morning. So, in order to train these knights, the Knights’ Academy would stay alive but those youths they trained to become knights were far from what was deemed “knightly" all those centuries ago.
The Knights’ Academy had been founded over three thousand years ago, by Reginald Brickland, a member of the Order of the Eight, yet if its founder were to step foot in its halls he wouldn’t be able to recognize the very walls he built. It had gone through renovations, sure, no building can last three millennia no matter how much magic you blast into the foundation, but it was as if the very soul of the Academy had changed. With no monster to fight or major wars across its realm, Knighton had lost the need for rigidly trained knights. Instead, the Knights’ Academy served a more modern purpose, a training center for the kingdom's young minds. Everything from traditional combat training to acting was taught to the over ten thousand students that graced its halls. While every student was required to learn the ways of Knighthood, most didn’t have the intention of actually becoming a Shield Bearer or a Protector of the Realm. Most students attended to have access to the best educators Knighton has to offer, opportunities to raise their social class after graduation, or to mingle with the children of nobility. Regardless, each child that had the privilege of attending the Knights’ Academy was required to take at least some form of combat training which, for some, was part of the reason they worked so hard to enter this academy and for others it was… a pain.
“For the last time- it’s swing perry thrust then you-” “Will you shut up?! I don’t care how its supposed to be done, I finished the-” “Well, if you actually paid attention to the lesson then we wouldn’t have come in last place-” “SHUT UP YOU-”
Ah yes, the sixth years of Knightons’s academy, truly the most civil of knights in training. It was a cool spring day, the sun shone just enough to warm the skin but not too much where it was stronger than the cool eastern winds. A perfect day for outdoor battle practice and that was just what concluded. But unfortunately it was a group practice day in which all the students would be bunched into random groups and pitted against each other in battle. As one could imagine, not every group got along swimmingly.
“Lance, you have to pay more attention and actually try in practice! You act as if none of this matters!” A young boy yelled out, he was slightly shorter than the boy he was yelling at, his hair was a deep brown and was slicked back to not end up with hat hair from wearing a knight’s helmet too long. His skin was a light brown with slight scarring all over his arms and a bit of hyperpigmentation from sun damage. His eyes, much like his hair, were a deep brown but despite their dark color his annoyance was clear as day.
“Because it doesn’t matter! We finished the battle, who cares if we came in last place? I don't care and my opinion is the only one that matters! Get off your high horse, no one here really cares about this, Clay!” The other boy, Lance, yelled back. His hair was the perfect natural blond, styled to the T, that somehow survived the physical battle he and his peers just had. His skin was fair and face lacking any blemishes, most likely from the boy's 12 step skincare routine, and his eyes were such a bright light blue it was a shock he could actually look up at the skin without going blind.
The rest of their battle group did nothing to stop their bickering, they were all used to it. It wasn’t until a tall and lanky boy walked up to Clay and tapped his shoulder when they stopped yelling, if only for a second to listen to what he had to say. “Hey Clay- I uh- it’s time to go back and change into our uniforms, uh class is o-over…” The boy said timidly, nervously twiddling his fingers together as he avoided eye contact with Lance who was staring at him. He was taller, he had a few inches on Lance yet his body language was timid, like he was trying to seem as small as possible despite his size and disappear into the background. The boy was thin, very thin, and if it weren’t for the guaranteed three meals a day he got from the Knights’ Academy one would have wondered if he was eating enough. His skin was almost sickly pale, lacking any warmth, almost looking like lead white clown paint. The only bit of color visible on him besides the school provided battle armor was his eyes and hair. His hair was completely black, not even a direct hit from the sun would show any undertone, but it was hidden underneath the knight's helmet. Yet despite his black and white face, his eyes were a bright emerald green. Despite their glow, they stayed firmly on the ground, avoiding eye contact with both Clay and Lance.
“…Fine” Clay said, giving Lance a quick glare before walking away with the other boy. He ignored Lance’s name calling he whispered under his breath, if he spent more time arguing he would be late to Chivalry and Ethics 102. Clay took a deep breath as he reached the armory, took off his chestplate, and hung it carefully on the rack, “You did good Jestro, really” Clay said as he turned to the taller boy.
“H-Huh-? Oh, uh thanks Clay, I s-still messed up a lot…” Jestro said, looking down at the floor as his hands started to move in small circular movements, almost as if he was juggling something.
“Oh come on Jestro, you have to give yourself more credit! I saw your block after Glaziere came at you with his sword, a few weeks ago you were telling me how you thought you would never learn how to block!” Clay countered proudly, trying to motivate his friend.
“Yeah and immediately after I got hit in the back with an arrow. I’m not good at anything…” Jestro said, his entire soul seeming defeated, but once he got a glimpse of Clay’s facial expression that was a mix of concern and pity he straightened up his posture and put on a weak smile, “B-But m-maybe that just m-means I need to t-try harder! A-And if this whole knight thing doesn’t work out I can always keep s-studing under Merlok!” Jestro said, sounding more like he was trying to convince himself more than Clay.
“That’s the spirit Jestro, I’ll see you at lunch” Clay said with a smile before quickly taking off to his next class. He always made sure to arrive a few minutes before class started, something about how it showed his determination to learn. Jestro didn’t really understand it. He sighed, taking off his helmet and quickly putting on a jester hat. He changed out of his armor and into his school uniform.
If Jestro were to be honest, he would say he didn’t want to become a knight. Who really wanted to be a knight nowadays anyways? Certainly not him, but he would never admit it to Clay, he was so determined to become a Protector of the Realm. Still, Jestro had the suspicion that deep down Clay knew that Jestro didn’t want to be a knight, he just wanted a purpose, something to do with his life. But it didn’t help that everything he did was a complete failure. The only reason his battle squad didn’t get dragged down to last place due to him was because somehow Clay and Lance’s fighting was a greater weakness than his existence. He was reminded of his failure everyday, even as he got onto the Academy’s Holorail he could hear the quiet snickers that he knew were directed at him. He had messed up so many times in practice battles, gave the wrong answer in class, or tripped over nothing he became the prime target for bullying. Lucky for him, the ride to Merlok’s library was short enough where he didn’t hear too many whispered insults from his peers.
As Jestro stepped out of the holorail he looked up at the tower in front of him. It was one of the few old buildings left in the capital, the only real sign of modern day technology was the security system it had in place and even that wasn’t visible. The only tech that was visible was a small keypad and camera at the door but even those had been magically infused to keep them from shutting off if there was a power outage. At the top of the door, written in a magically glowing gold font was the words “Merlok the Magician’s Library,” this was the place Jestro spent instead of going to traditional classes. While the young man still had to take his core classes at the Academy, even Principal Brinkland knew that Jestro didn’t… thrive in these classes, so they simply shoved him to Merlok to get him out of their hair. He walked up and nervously typed in the code. It changed everyday and the only person that knew what the combination would be everyday was Merlok, so every morning Jestro would be awoken by some messenger bird pecking at the window with the code written on a piece of parchment tied to the bird’s leg. Jestro had tried to teach Merlok how to use a phone he could simply text him the code but somehow the teaching session ended up with a blown up phone and Merlok claiming that messenger birds were more reliable because they could take a fire blast without dying. Jestro then had to remind the man that no, birds can’t take a fireball to the head and survive, just like a phone can’t but there was no changing the man’s mind.
The old door stayed closed after Jestro typed in the code so he tried again, nothing. “Huh, that’s odd, it normally opens on its own after I type in the code” Jestro mumbled to himself before trying to push it open one more time and nothing again. So, the young boy took a few steps back before running at the door shoulder first, intending to brute force it open, but right before his shoulder made contact with the old wooden door, it opened and caused Jestro to run into the tower and crash against the wall.
“Ow! Crap ugh that hurt… Of course it opens-'' Jestro got up, ignoring the pain in his side as he dusted off the dirt on his clothes before making his way up the long spiral column of stairs. It felt like an eternity before he made it to the top of the tower, gently knocking on a large wooden door locked before him before pushing it open. “Merlok? Are you in here?”
As Jestro stepped into the library he saw an elderly man standing next to a large table that was covered in books with a staff in hand. The older man looked up from one of the old books and smiled warmly, “Ah, there you are my boy. Come over here I was looking over my old spell books and found some different incantations we could try.” Merlok was a kind soul, the last his kind, yet he did his best to pass his wisdom onto Jestro,
“Oh- uh I-I was kinda hoping we could j-just read and study instead of… practicing” Jestro said as he put down his bag next to the door then walked over to Merlok, his hands shaking slightly as he touched one of the books that was decades older than him. It didn’t matter how many times he interacted with Merlok’s relics, Jestro always felt like was going to ruin the sacred text somehow. “I don’t want to b-break anything…”
“Nonsense! Everything in this library is already preserved under the Royal Palace. Anyone can spend their whole life studying something but if they never apply that knowledge then it’s pointless. And besides, few are even able to use that knowledge” Merlok said with a sly smirk, gently nudging Jestro’s shoulder. Jestro gave a nervous smile back to the magician before he reached down for the small staff laid out on the table. “A-Alright, what are we doing?”
“It’s a simple teleportation incantation, although I’ve edited it slightly to focus more on the first part, making an object disappear!” Merlok said, flipping open one of the many books on the old table open to a page that had much more recent calligraphy in comparison to the century old spells written on the other pages.
“Wait, isn’t this the spell you use for events in the Joustdome? I thought it was a wordless spell,” Jestro asked, “Ah, yes. Of course, with experience even the most complicated of spells can be performed without its incantation, but young sourcers are always taught the incantations of their spells. But don’t worry, this is a simple spell, you’ll get the hang of it and before you know you’ll be performing alongside me in the Joustdome” Merlok said with a warm smile, placing a reassuring hand on Jestro’s shoulder before reaching for a empty potion bottle and placing it on the table. “Now simply read the incantation here and focus your mind onto the glass bottle, just like the levitation spell we practiced a few weeks ago.”
“A-Alright, I-I’ll try not to turn it into a glass pig…” Jestro mumbled nervously as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a wooden wand. It was the first item that started his magical journey, Merlok had noticed the fine bits of purple feathers crafted into the small staff would glow a faint light whenever Jestro tried to do anything whilst the wand was near around the boy’s second year in the academy. That was how Merlok discovered Jestro had the ability to wield magic, although faintly and his connection to magic still needed to be greatly strengthened; it had been the first sign of a possible new wizard in decades.
“So it’s uh- Okay, d-deep breaths, you c-can do t-this… E-Evanescet- AH-!” As soon as Jestro raised his wand and the spell slipped from his lips a golden light surrounded the glass bottle. But just as soon as it began to glow, its light faded and violently shattered into a thousand small pieces. How Jestro nor Merlok was hit the young wizard in training didn’t know. But as soon as realized what happened he quickly started apologizing.
“Gah- Merlok I’m so s-sorry I-I didn’t mean to-” Jestro tried apologizing as he panicked at the sight of the broken bottle.
“It’s alright my boy, no one got hurt and mistakes happen. Normally failed incantations result in nothing and I can’t say I remember any of the other wizard trainees of the time of the Council having such a…” Merlok paused for a second, trying to find the right word that wouldn’t break the boy’s already fragile ego, “…violent result to such a simple spell…”
Merlok didn’t have to say it and he never tried to say anything that would hurt Jestro, he knew the boy was trying, but his facial expression showed his confusion, slight disappointment, and worry clear as day. Jestro pushed down the shame as deep as he could, he wouldn’t cry over something this small, no matter how much it hurt him to have his mentor disappointed in him. He knew Merlok wasn’t the best at comforting people so he tried to put on a neutral face.
“But it’s okay, let’s take a break alright?” Merlok said, putting down his own staff and closing the book, “We’ll clean up later. Now, tell me how your interview for your role of Royal Jester went?” Merlok asked, quickly trying to change the subject as he led Jestro out of the library.
so thats all i have so far! pls leave any suggestions and critism you have!! next chapter will probably just be focused on introducing the main 5 with maybe a bit of ava and robin in the background idk

Okok nexo knight rewrite idea where in s4 when clay attacks Jestro and nearly throws him off a cliff, instead he uses his powers to just uhhh blow Jestro up. Like, *magic blast* and Jestro is just… gone. Then Ruina steps in but she seems pretty triumphant despite it all. From then on, Ruina takes Jestro’s place as commander of the armies.
This serves as a much stronger reason for why clay wanted to be sealed away, because Jestro was still his friend and he just killed him with magic. This also makes clay and Jestro friendship still relevant to the season.
And then it turns out that clay didn’t kill Jestro, but rather, digitised him, made him nexo, just like Merlock, which would flow really well into the next season: Terrorbytes, which is based on technology.
I think this is a lot more interesting than Jestro getting arrested for being possessed against his will (kinda salty abt that tbh)

they did her dirty fr
and the fact her father, the same father that didn't want to become to a knight because he feared for her "safety", didn't do shit to stop the grown ass man trying to kiss his 16-19 year old daughter.
they could have made her a dragon in a bird chage, but no, shes just the pick me "girl knight"
also clay did her dirty, they could have just had aaron be the one to be the 'leader' in front of the cameras and let macy control shit behind closed doors. but lets say the royal family is that important, macy doesn't acctually need to take the throne, shes not the only one in the line of succession. in the book of monsters (the irl copy lego sold) theres clearly other memebers of the royal family, including at least one or two of King Eggreds siblings (im only doing King Eggreds siblings hes the royal born out of the current king and queen duo)
Tumblr media
those two probaly have childern, and if not just let them take the throne. why make the king have siblings and then also say macy can't be a leader because her dying would impact the realm too much. she was born to be a leader, also do the nexo knights not know that the first halbert was a knight???? like way to disrespect the founder of your kingdom. just let macy be more than the "whinny girl knight"
am i looking too deep into this? probably but fuck it let me have fun
So my boyfriend might have made my brain resurface my old interest in nexo knights with a silly joke and
I got some thoughts about my girl Macy tbf
Macy Halbert had so much potential if they actually wanted to do something smart about her character other than “girl knight”. The fact she was “scared” of being seen in a dress and kept distancing herself from her Royal duties (which mostly consisted of sitting and acting like a trophy daughter) could’ve been great symbolism.
All she really wanted was to be respected and treated at the same level as a knight. While yes, acknowledging her role as a princess gave her privilege, she constantly got lower tasks and protection due to her status.
Even Clay, her best friend of years told her she couldn’t take his place as a leader even if she had the best skills out of all of them, simply because he couldn’t risk getting a Royal getting hurt.
And she goes against all odds to constantly prove she isn’t as fragile as others think (except Aaron, Aaron’s the one fucking person that never underestimates her). Even with her weapon of choice. A mace. A mace is a weapon used in direct combat. It’s a heavy weapon. Next to AXL, Macy chose the heaviest weapon to weird and to stand in the front lines of combat.
AND HER SYMBOL IS A FUCKING DRAGON?? SHES A PRINCESS A KNIGHT AND A DRAGON?? HOW COOL THAT WOULD’VE BEEN

I never talked about my interpretation of Misako but she was so cool and basically a completely different character.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I wanted her debut to be shocking when I got to it in my fan comic, but that might be a long time until then, soooo...
information about her under the cut...
Appearance: She is 6 and a half feet tall with a revealing outfit, chi-powered nexo armor on her arms and legs, scars, a shield, a gun, and sun glasses. Backstory: She is 600 years old and first became fascinated with researching realm travel so she could meet with Garmadon in the Underworld. One day, she meant to go on a week long inter-realm adventure, leaving Lloyd at home alone (neglectful to begin with) but ended up getting lost across the realms, so her adventure lasted 6 years. She spent the most time in Chima and Nexo (Nexo Knights). She has a small bit of chi that powers her equipment that she got in Nexo*. She befriended the Chima tribes and she worked with the Nexo Knights to save Knighton. *In my interpretation, the organisms of Nexo are a mix of organic material and robotic. They are like natural cyborgs, so their armor is powered by strong organic electric currents they naturally produce. Misako is a human, so she has to use an alternative power source. (Nexo rewrite lore was made in collaboration with @transhitman) Personality: She'd be one of the most ridiculous characters. She is extremely chill and apathetic, played mostly for comedy, but played horrifyingly seriously when it comes to Lloyd. She is so old and so focused on research that she is detached from emotions. She somehow completely fails to understand why Lloyd is so hurt over NOT HAVING A PARENT ("its just five years. and you turned out fine."). She also always wants things her own way, and is completely willing to kill someone if they inconvenience her (played for jokes). She is an okay person overall, just oblivious and unpredictable.
Role in the plot: She would show up from a realm portal mid battle with the Stone Army to help the ninja, rather than showing up before the action to give the initial lore dump. She is mostly a comic relief character, and helps the Ninja when they need knowledge about the realms. She is completely unmoved by any of Lloyd's attempts to bond with her or get an apology from her. She loves Garmadon for being a baddie. Wu flirts with her post Garmadon's death, and she is completely apathetic to this, slightly inconvenienced, considering killing him.
Abilities: She is one of the most combatively-skilled characters on the ninja's side. She uses her bare hands and spinjitzu at close range, and her rifle at long range. The people of Ninjago haven't invented guns yet, and are very surprised. She can absorb energy (including elemental) to power her armor and rifle. Her chi power source allows her to gain superhuman capabilities momentarily, but she doesn't like to use it since it will eventually run dry. She is also extremely wise but is even worse at explaining things than Wu is, out of apathy.

agreed, they really could have done that arc better. If they were going to make him a more major character/had him step up to the leader position, they should have had him ACTUALLY do leader shit. they also should have backed up the whole "macy can let emotions get to her" instead of suddenly doing it in s3's finale. She was doing amazing throughout s3 as a sort of leader and was really hyped up for that position, only for it to be handed to Aaron because ooo plot twist. :( don't get me wrong i loved s3, banger season, my favorite actually, but I wish they had worked more on that arc.
One thing I noticed throughout season 3 is that they gave Aaron more lines. Not anything that's actually meaningful or really contributive to the plot, but like... he just speaks more. And it's noticable because of how jank it is
Like something will happen, the camera will pan over him, and he'll be like "wow folks this sure is a doozy we've gotten ourselves into we gotta use the power of friendship or whatever" before the scene just continues. You could take it out entirely and nothing would change
I realize this is because they were gonna make him leader/ "a main character" (in heavy quotations), so they wanted to shake him like a set of keys in front of the audience's face like "oooo look orange man you remember orange man right?" but it doesn't make it any less funny. "This is just a TASTE of the amount of Aaron screentime y'all are gonna get in s4!!!" and then season 4 happens and it's the same. He's just there, but every once in a while he's like "maybe I DO suck at my job." And Lance, his bestest friend in the whole world, is there to affirm to him that yes. He IS the worst. Friendship really is magic
Shoutout to "In Charge" and how they're like "he's proven himself these past few battles that he's ready to take on the challenge!!!" because no tf he has not. When did he do that. Cuz I wasn't there
