Y’know those evil personas that Youtubers had back in like 2017 or so? I love the idea of those. I think we should bring back using opposite names as like our 'evil persona'. I'll go first, hello everyone, my name is InformallyCertain! Awful to meet you, now I'm off to kick a puppy, or whatever it is evil people do!!

"Oh Steph wouldn't like Jason just because they have similar backgrounds because he kills people/is a criminal/fights the bats!!"

This is in the 90's BEFORE he even tortured her. She doesn't go through with it, but she sees the evil he's capable of and its enough for her to justify it. She only doesn't because it "goes against what Batman taught her" but well.

That's the same man who would let her dad's friends infest her house for MONTHS until BLACK CANARY came to Gotham and handled it

A grown man who would go on to verbally degrade her, withhold the tools he gave everyone else, keep her intentionally isolated and then use her lack of resources against her.

So yeah. I'm sure Steph's faith in Batman and his teachings have wavered plenty. Just because DC casually discarded the way she was treated so she could play happy family with the boys, but she has NO REASON TO. Before she was aged down there was definite tension between her and Tim, and while Babs worked to get that relationship back, Bruce did no such thing. "Oh I'm just as proud of you as I was with the boys" when he thought she was dying doesn't fucking change how he treated her.

And of course, there's her own forray into betraying the family and being a criminal in The Next Batman series.

That's without getting into how she was compared to Jason, the way she watched a murdered east end kid be toted as another violent, reckless, idiot who didn't think and got himself killed.

"Oh but he tried to kill Tim!" First of all, you didn't read that comic. Jason was TESTING him, they were 2 years apart MAXIMUM, and Tim FOUGHT BACK. Jason gave him a little cut and a nose bleed that he slapped a bandage on and was fine. Damian also started his first meeting with Tim antagonistically and even though he was actively hostile to her, Steph still formed a close sibling bond. Her first meeting with Tim she threw a brick at him. He spent a not significant amount of time belittling her and telling her she wasn't cut out for hero work when she came back. This is the same guy who hallucinated Jason just so Jason could be like "Oh I got myself killed don't be like me!" Can we be real she doesn't give a shit. I guess you could count Hush but. I know they retconned it so that was Jason but when the fuck would he have had the time to do that between death, catanoia, the All-caste, and his murder tour.

Stephanie understands better than anyone that desperate circumstances lead to desperate people who do bad things. Stephanie understands being belittled and compared to a rich white boy who never had to fight to survive like you did. She understands being isolated from the hero community. She understands the evil that exists and the ways the system is corrupt, and that the bad guy never STAYS caught. And it's not like she has any big problem with people who kill, Babs said in 90's she would fucking LOVE Joker to drop dead and Dinah has killed multiple times. She literally switched places with Lady Shiva? These are both women Steph looks up to. You don't think Steph would feel any admiration at all for someone who gave Bruce a taste of what it feels like to be shown up? Someone who made Roman's life hell? Someone who made Tim put action behind his shit talking? An alley kid who came back and refused to be another statistic, who showed everyone who spent the last decade calling him stupid and reckless EXACTLY how cunning he can be? None? At all?

I just find it a little hard to believe.

One of my pet peeves after having gotten very into swing dance as an aroace is seeing videos of people swing dancing or really doing any type of partner dance and over half the comments just being stuff like “how are they not in love😳” or “friends🤨” like please free yourselves, you can have a lot of chemistry and fun dancing with someone and it doesn’t have to be anything more than that!! Just fun!!! I’m not saying a little bit of lighthearted friendly love can’t be involved but it’s not always that deep, it’s just having fun!!

I HOPE THE CHAT FUCKS WITH SILLY DOODLES !!!

So many people say Kai is the most similar to Morro. That he is the most likely to become like Morro. And as much as i agree, there’s also a clear contender for that spot.

And that’s Nya.

Not many people (from what I’ve seen) take note of how much Nya was at risk of becoming like Morro at times, the only thing potentially stopping her often was the love she held for others being much more protective than Morro’s ever needed to be.

Nya was raised as the younger sibling to Kai. Due to that, she wasn’t subjected to the same pressure or responsibility as Kai as the eldest did to protect Nya. Leaving her to watch, unable to do much.

Instead, she felt the pressure to become better and more useful because she wasn’t enough. Similarly to Morro, they were both raised in an environment where so much that they did was not enough. That they weren’t capable of protecting either themselves or others. It was due to that, that when they were given the chance to grow bigger than what they already were in the world, they took it with their own bare hands and moulded it to their own wish.

Nya, when she and Kai were taken in by Wu, was also trained by Wu. Not as much or as extensively as they had, seeing as at the time she wasn’t a ninja, but enough for them both to be assured she was capable of defending herself (this is mainly implied rather than stated in the show within the early seasons). Despite that, she knew she wanted and needed to be more so she can belong. So she can feel as if she wasn’t being useless.

She created Samurai X, and went out to do things better than how the ninja did.

Morro was a street orphan to put it simply. When he was taken in by Wu, it’s likely he was at the very least satisfied with what he had before beginning to climb up. Similarly to Nya, when the idea was placed within their heads to be something more, they did everything they could to reach that point.

Morro, however, instead of choosing to be something like or better than the green ninja, chased after it because in his eyes there wasn’t anything better than that. Nya, whilst she ended up becoming Samurai X instead of a ninja, believed it made her stronger than one. So when the prospect of being a ninja was brought up, I believe she was so reluctant and stubborn at the time because she believed she didn’t need it. She was already stronger than the ninja, she was more efficient and respected. Why would she need to be a ninja?

They both strived to be the strongest they could be and rejected the idea for settling for second best, in their own eyes.

Its with that and them both sharing the traits early seasons of extreme stubbornness, an uncontrollable anger at times, the belief that being stronger makes you better, and ambition that drives them to go above and beyond than what others expected.

And its with that i believe that Nya, in the early seasons specifically, was the most likely to ever become like Morro. Because the taste of power when it’s at a person’s fingertips can very easily corrupt them, but the taste of overwhelming power to a person who has none is like gold itself. Nya didn’t let it corrupt her, but she could’ve because of how much she was looked down upon. Morro let it corrupt him, but there could’ve been a path where he didn’t if he had realised that he already was enough to one person.

The parallels between the two shock me unbelievably so, especially seeing as how well it links to their connected elements connecting them. Even physically I’d say they’d look similar. At the very least with their lego figures they are similar in hair, like how Morro and early seasons Nya had the same/similar hair cut.

Yet now, Nya’s hair was able to grow longer than she had ever let it, showing how much she also grew as a person, acknowledging that power isn’t the only thing and that she is needed and wanted by so many. Morro, on the other hand, despite his stance on wanting to be the green ninja having withered away, is forever stuck in a state of un-change, a reminder of how much is actions only led to his own downfall, in the end.

I wonder how often Lloyd might’ve mistaken early seasons Nya as Morro.

Anyways this is a huge ramble and i might’ve mischaracterised Nya by accident, so forgive me for that. Even if it seems like i’m painting her in a potentially bad or selfish light, it doesn’t mean her character is based on selfishness. Giving characters potential flaws or analysing how they think is like my thing atp and i genuinely do think that Nya enjoyed the power and ability to finally do something, which isn’t a bad thing. But if tapped into wrong it could’ve led her down a bad path, is what i’m pretty much saying. She’s grown so much though now, in both the later season of ninjago and in Dragons rising. I’m so excited to see how they’re gonna characterise Morro now too seeing as he’s likely in the new season.

Okay im doen thsi is bad im disappearing now

John and Nikolai finally have time to spend an evening together, but John came back exhausted from an op and is now fighting to stay awake for Nikolai's sake, while Nik really only wants him to rest.

(Just a little bit nsfw at the beginning)

...

"Are you sure you are up for this, John?"

Nikolai wasn't a fool, he could see the exhaustion on John's face, the way his eyelids felt heavier than the dumbbells he was used to pulling almost every day, the heavy bags under his tired eyes. It was a good sight, a more vulnerable side of John he wasn’t used to showing to the world. To allow himself to drop his guard enough to fall asleep by someone’s side, well, Nik certainly felt like the luckiest man in the world. 

“I am… want to make you feel good….”

Those last words were barely coherent, John’s speech getting worse and worse with each passing minute he was fighting to stay awake. It was adorable. 

“Right. So if I asked for your lips around my cock, you would do it?”

Nik was teasing him, a wide smile on his face as he observed John’s reaction, or lack thereof, as the captain stared vacantly at him, his eyes barely open. For a second, Nik assumed that John had finally fallen asleep, until his hand moved, brushing his tired face with the back of it. 

“Just fuck me, Nik, c’mon.”

A gentle and quiet laugh was Nik’s response. If there was one thing John Price was, it was stubborn. Unless he physically restrained him and tightly tucked him under a blanket, this wasn’t a fight he had a chance to win. There were, however, many ways to win a fight. 

“Da, let me get to it then.” 

It was getting difficult for Nikolai to stop himself from laughing. John was laying on their bed, absorbed by the pillows and the blankets, like he was floating above a cloud. Nik stood on his knees between John’s legs, hands gently brushing the inside of his thigh. 

Spending time together was always a difficult task when both John and Nikolai spent their days on different sides of the world, dodging bullets and risking their lives. It was rare for them to be on the same continent, let alone the same room, despite how much they wanted it. 

When the two finally had some free time to spend together, Nikolai always wanted to do something special for John: taking him on dates, making him try food he knew he would love, fly him to a secluded place and make love to him under the stars. He wanted to make up for lost time, of course, and John knew that, a slight leftover of guilt left in the captain’s heart over the years he had wasted being too scared of this relationship. 

But, sometimes, all they got was a single night together, shared after John came back from an op. Often times, he was exhausted, bruised, and needed rest more than he needed any more adventures. This was such a case, as Gaz had informed Nikolai earlier that no one in the team had been able to get any shut eyes in the past forty hours. John was exhausted, but he was as stubborn as they came and had assured Nik that he was up for this. Right. 

A soft smile still on his lips, Nikolai bent down, kissing the naked skin of his lover’s hips, while his hands kept wandering around the lower parts of his body, his thighs so perfect under his fingers. A low groan escaped John’s throat, a quick glance confirming that his eyes were now fully closed. Not yet asleep, however, and so Nik continued, leaving kisses on his belly and ribs, hands still massaging him as best he could, soft sounds coming from John until eventually, his breathing changed, slowing down, limbs going limp. 

Nikolai smiled softly as he pulled himself up, resting next to John as he dragged a blanket on top of their naked bodies. He allowed himself, for a moment, to just observe the now asleep man next to him.

There was a sternness to John that immediately disappeared when he was sleeping, his brow relaxing, his jaw less tense, at peace, finally. Nikolai knew that his dreams wouldn’t be comforting, they never had been and probably never would be, but he was here, for him, ready to pull him closer when needed, ready to kiss the nape of his neck as his arms wrapped themselves around his shape. 

Perhaps Nik was a selfish man. He had pondered this thought many, many times in the past. To want something as much as he wanted John, to crave him like he was the only thing that mattered, it had been maddening, and still he waited. Now that John finally was his, there was nothing in this world that could pull him away from him. He had waited for so many years, that spending some time watching the other half of his heart slowly drift to sleep as they laid in bed together felt like a well-earned reward. And if that made him a selfish man, well then to hell with it. 

“Good night, John.” 

His voice was barely a whisper as his fingers brushed his lover’s hair, gently kissing his cheek. There were no reactions from John, and Nikolai allowed himself to close his eyes as well, a hand resting against John’s chest, right above his heart. There, in the quiet intimacy of the night, he could almost feel it beat under his palm, the perfect lullaby to lure him to sleep.
