#the queerness of ninjago

[vilecreampuffs]

Happy Pride Month!

My name is Vile CreamPuffs, but you can just call me; Vile! I'm a 15 y/o neuroqueer, bigender, multi-talented child prodigy who has been working on two major projects!

The first project is 'The Queerness of NINJAGO'!

"What is, The Queerness of NINJAGO?"

'The Queerness of NINJAGO' is an informative, queer analysis documentary on the series, 'LEGO: NINJAGO' (that has been in the works since may of 2022!) I'm a sociology, psychology & queer theory student. The Queerness of NINJAGO takes a philosophical look at NINJAGO as a series; and uses NINJAGO as a base to discuss psychology and sociology.

(When released, it will release on YouTube! And hopefully nebula...) The second project is a scifi-musical-multiverse comic! Titled, 'LEGO: DUO'!

(this is mostly concept art-for the visuals-though official art is coming soon!)

"What is LEGO: DUO?"

LEGO: DUO is a multiverse, musical sci-fi, comic that's a allegory/metaphor for my bigender experience! LEGO: DUO is a critique on capitalism and the copyright system. The characters in this series are based on pre-existing characters from the first ever LEGO movie to come to DVD, 'The Adventures of Clutch Powers!'

The main character; Claud Limberg, is the average day to day Archeologist, whose dream is to be seen as an explorer. He works every day, 9-5, whether it be digging up lost bones and artifacts or working at the front desk. He continues the same cycle every day until him and his team are assigned to work in an infamous mine. While craving adventure, he goes off course to which he discovers a mysterious crystal portal from another universe.

This has been in the works since March of 2023, and will be released (hopefully) by late 2024! (and hopefully my documentary as well!) When released, it'll be on Webtoon, Tumblr, Tiktok, Twitter, and Bluesky! It will be updated bi-weekly! (hopefully)

(and yes, Claud Limberg is canonically bigender!)

"Where/how can I support you?"

Socials: You can find me at, bluesky, tiktok, Instagram, twitter AND YouTube under @ vilecreampuffs ! (YouTube is where I'll be posting my documentary! and hopefully also on nebula...) Thank you so much for reading, If you're interested, please follow me & support my endeavors!

yep yep

Geo 100% made Cole get back into art + Cole thinks it‘s really strange yet endearing how „dramatically“ (from Cole‘s perspective of everyone around him basically almost dying constantly) Geo reacts to him getting hurt in the slightest

I love them

She literally came out (as personified ancient spell) to her parents (plus Zane) with a DIY PowerPoint

I was originally gonna give him a small dialogue box saying “finally my time has come” as if they needed someone to go undercover somewhere and he finally saw his chance to pull out his drag queen kit he randomly carries everywhere but oh well I’ll save that for another day

BASED ON THIS^^^

Im surprisingly proud of myself for this drawing like - I thought I was gonna do like crap but I’m actually super satisfied with how he turned out. Like look at him, he looks so pretty😌 maybe I should do drag king Nya next

[sunflowerandstrawberryspice]

It took way to long to do this drawing but now it's done and I really do like how it came out! Also yes I have completely overhauled my Cole design and I'll make a new character sheet eventually!

Now I do want to very briefly address something that has been going around the internet and it's the whole discourse about Cole and Geo possibly becoming an item at some point. I'm not going to go out an say everyone has to like it that is not my intention! I personally enjoy the ship (and others) BUT disliking the ship does NOT give people a pass to be disrespectful and flat our hateful in certain circumstances!

The sheer amount of homophobia I have seen since season 2 of DR came out is honestly concerning and I know it's probably not the majority but is a concerningly loud group of people. I think it's ironic that a show that has been about accepting people even if they're different since as far back as season one (Zane and Cole's true potential episodes being the examples) has people so mad that they might being including people of different groups. I honestly just think it's a shame that people can be so hateful.

Anyways that's my rant of the weekend lol, I just hope that people can generally just be more nice!

Conversations I Think Happened in the Grasslands:

Lloyd: So people use you to justify hate towards queer people, but uncle Wu's chill with queer people, so does that mean you're okay with queer people too?

FSM: I don't what that means.

Lloyd: Uhhh, queer people are people who aren't exclusively attracted to the opposite gender as them, and/or don't identify as their birth gender.

FSM: You have words for that now? Well then yes, I am fine with queer people. And I don't appreciate others using me as an excuse to hate people because of the way they were born. I've had enough of that in my lifetime.

Lloyd, lying on his back: Hey, do you have wifi here?

FSM: No.

Lloyd: Can you get wifi here?

FSM: I’m God, so probably.

Lloyd, sitting up: You should get a twitter account.

FSM: No thank you.

Lloyd: So being gay means you're exclusively attracted to people of the same gender as you, being bisexual mean you're attracted to both genders and-

FSM: Is there a word for not being attracted to people at all?

Lloyd: Um yeah, asexual means you don't feel sexual attraction and aromantic means you don't feel romantic attraction.

FSM: Oh it's wonderful that humanity’s finally figured that we exist. Whenever I told people I didn't want a spouse because I wasn't attracted to anyone they always said 'you haven't found the right person yet'. I'm thousands of years old, I really don't that's going to happen Takeshi.

Lloyd: You're queer?! Ha suck it homophobes!

Lloyd: Wait who's Takeshi?

FSM: Don't worry about it. He's dead now.

Lloyd, squinting suspiciously: Like, did he die of old age or...

FSM, smiling: I said don't worry about it.

FSM: So how is Mystake?

Lloyd: Dead.

FSM: Really? I didn’t know she could die.

Y'ALL ARE NEVER GONNA GUESS WHAT I DID TODAY

[cable-salamdr]

Idiots with the painted face, in the corner taking up space

(Inspired by this drawing of wedding gown Nya)

I think they would just chill. Talk about their lives, maybe. Brothers, lovers, friends, powers. How they got to this point. Terry steals a child because she can. Yk, the usual stuff. (Someone please tell them their weddings will go wrong (/pos) and they can somewhat go towards happiness afterwards. They desperately need it.)

Exist unapologetically‼️♿️🏳️‍⚧️

It’s a hard time for a lot of communities right now, in the US because of the election. It’s not yet over, but it’s not looking very good. Remember to be yourself, but safely! They don’t want us to exist. They don’t LIKE us existing, so EXIST. Do not disappear. Do not lay silent. Do not fall, we have each other.

Be safe, be proud, be you. 💙

and if for some god awful reason you follow any of my socials and voted red, get the hell out

[mittenslikescats]

I can’t even

Some fucker changed it because ‘oh no Ninjago can’t possibly have a gay relationship’ even though there’s evidence in the SHOW and not to mention several ppl working on the show support these 2 as a ship.

And don’t tell me that ‘they’re just trying to make sure the information is factual’ cus on that same exact page they have Nya listed as one of Cole’s former love interest even though it’s been confirmed by Tommy Andersen that Cole never liked Nya romantically and that he was just confused at the sudden attention she was giving him.

But of course some homophobe probably got upset at seeing Geo being a possible love interest for Cole. I sometimes cannot with this wiki, like you have your canon straight ships, you got Jaya, Kailor, Pixane, Llokita just let us have this one gay ship be canon. It’s not going to ruin Cole’s character if he ends up in a romantic relationship with Geo. When Kai and Skylor got together did that suddenly ruin Kai’s personality? No and it would be the same for Cole.

It’s honestly tiring having to fight for queer representation in Ninjago and it doesn’t make it easier having homophobes trying to bash anyone who supports a queer ship or headcanons a character as queer in this fandom.

Also while on topic I actually hate how ppl will try to use Vania as an excuse to be homophobic. Like when a homophobe goes on about how ‘Cole isn’t gay’ they’ll always bring up Vania (and Nya at times too) like it’s been confirmed that Cole and Vania are just friends yet people still treat the ship as canon (u can totally ship them if u want btw) and use Vania as an excuse to homophobic. Like don’t you dare bring my girl into this

I’m honestly disappointed in the ninjago wiki, I thought people there would be more open to the idea of Cole and Geo being a canon couple. But I guess that’s just wishful thinking.

Pride month is finished, but not my love for these homosexuals 😂

I just love Cole and Geo… the cutest couple of dads 🧡💜

(Yes, another drawing of Cole…)

[gaylegoactivist]

I absolutely HAVE to share this edit I made before pride month ends.

I made this a while ago, it was kinda an expression of how I felt about the homophobes trying to say Cole was never gay and coming up with all these reasons he isn’t. I chose to use clips from earlier seasons (the royal blacksmiths is an obvious episode to choose), and especially seasons in which something happens that is often used as “proof” Cole is not gay. I was kinda trying to say something with this edit, I put lots of thought and emotion into it, I wanted to express that being queer is not as simple as being or not being, it’s a journey of self discovery and coming to terms with things, looking back on your life experiences and realising you were always this way, Cole himself may have very well thought he was straight in the earlier seasons, or maybe he did know, it’s all up to interpretation, but what WE know is that he has always been coded that way, and him possibly being in a relationship with another man is not as shocking as the homophobes make it out to be.

I think it’s important for everyone to remember that 1) Cole is fictional and it’s not that deep, and 2) even if he were real he would want us to just be proud of him and not fight each other over it.
