#rise of the spinjitzu Master

[queennai714]

Sure feeling loved and personal fulfillment and achieving everything you've ever dreamed of is great and all, but have you ever felt the pure, unmatched euphoria of rewatching Ninjago and stumbling across the first time a character ever says "Ninja never quit" ?

OH! I just realized. Parallels between these swords and the Illuma-swords from Child's Play.

"first student always turns evil" actually statistical error. Most people's first students turn out completely fine. Spinjitzu Georg and his family are statistical outliers and should not have been counted

HE GETS IT FROM THEM 😭

Imagine how Lloyd feels after continuing a cycle he tried breaking.

Imagine how he’ll feel when he sees Morro, someone who was a victim to this cycle much more than anyone else, again.

How does Lloyd feel, knowing he has taken the place of the Fsm, only able to watch as his two students split apart, one determined to do anything to achieve what they want, and the other hopeless as they lose one of the only solid things they had for such a long time through the consequences of their own actions?

How does he feel when he sees Wu in Sora and Garmadon in Arin? A sick play imitating the story he has heard a thousand times, of a siblings trust having broken as the other faces consequences of an actions they had no ill intentions in doing?

How does he handle the curling guilt and the regret and horror and disgust when all he sees is the face of a ghost as his student leaves him in a fit of rage? How does he deal with knowing exactly how his uncle felt when his own first student left due to his own poor communication?

Does he wonder if the Fsm, his grandfather, felt the same when Garmadon left to go join Chen? Or did the man not care, or did he also feel a weight of horror hugging him like a forgotten nightmare from childhood?

How do you cope knowing you only continued the cycle? How do you fix it when the previous generation couldn’t?

How can Lloyd comfort Sora as she sobs at night and hope for Wu to be in one piece again and hear his siblings doing their best and have his other students to comfort and feel the weight of the world carry him down again?

No Lloyd avoiding your problems and acting like everything is okay doesn’t mean it is, therapy is something i can pay for if its you.

The curse of the first student is even worse when you realise all three of them perceived their student as their child in one way or another and the student perceived their mentor as some level of father figure ☹️

DOES THIS MEAN WHAT I THINK IT MEANS...........

THE DRAGON THAT HAD FSM WAS A SOURCE DRAGON!?!?!?!?

If the symbols mean the Source Dragons, and one is calling Lloyd, "One of mine" does that mean we finally may have info on the specific Dragon and Oni that had FSM?

I mean, we as a fandom don't look at that very much.........

BUT WHAT IF?!?!?!? Lloyd, Garmadon and Wu are descended from a Source Dragon?!?!?!?! Or is it "one of mine," because Energy means Life?

[icy-watch]

HE"S CURED!?!?!

[potatounicoorn]

The fact we grew up along side him makes me emotional every single time.
