celebrity / social media hc for the ninja ;

inspired by ceoofmorro's series of a similar topic

lloyd

bro is addicted to both tiktok and twitter at the same time

likes/comments very frequently so it's super common to be scrolling tiktok and seeing that lloyd fucking garmadon himself commented on some kpop edit

he gets tagged in a lot of fritz donnegan content (and bonds w jay over their shared love for the character)

mostly appears in interviews/qna's/premiers, but the poor boy is still super awkward through all of it. he's very convinced he'll never get used to the spotlight

he donates to/advocates for a lot of children's mental health organizations and lgbtq+ fundraisers

he rarely posts on any social media, but he puts a lot of random pictures on his instagram story. it's mostly just blurry photos of the other ninja's faces because he's a shit photographer (and knows it)

kai

kai mostly sticks to twitter and instagram

he does a lot of modelling in his free time with nya, but everyone and their mother knows that if he wasn't a ninja, he would be a full-time model

effortlessly cool during interviews and such. he knows what he says are basically the words of god in some people's eyes and he abuses this power to its fucking limits

he has DEFINITELY done those '(insert celebrity) reads thirst tweets' things. he enjoyed it way too much

trends on twitter very often for pulling dumb bs (mostly pranks and random selfies in the middle of life-or-death situations)

reposts thirst traps and edits of himself for fun and loves to watch everyone panic over the fact he sees them

definitely the type of guy to use a samsung fridge to tweet

nya

nya does a lot of modelling with kai. media outlets absolutely adore them, they got to be on multiple magazine covers together and do lots of creative photoshoots (which nya also started to organize herself when she found out kai had a genuine passion for modelling)

the two are an unstoppable duo when they're not arguing over pineapple pizza on twitter fr

posts weekly photo dumps on instagram which usually include a LOT of mirror selfies

it's a lifestyle really

despite not using twitter much, she frequently gets on trending for her daily Queen Shit™

she started to embrace her feminine side more after skybound, and a very vocal feminist

I think I saw tommy andreasen say smth like nya would have a self-improvement channel on youtube, I really like that idea!

jay

fellow tiktok addict

seriously tho, get this guy off tiktok. he literally cannot stop it's kinda scary

I think it'd be funny if zane and pixal saw his screentime and decided to set some sort of parental control on his devices, and no matter he tries he can't seem to bypass it

drives him crazy

definitely a fandom boy you cannot change my mind, he loves fritz donnegan content and other comic heroes

generally considered to be on 'the weird side of tiktok' by his friends

gets super excited whenever fans ask for stories from the ninja's adventures. he calls together a group of kids to sit in a circle in the middle of the supermarket as he tells them about the hands of time or the tournament of elements

cole

he likes producing small tidbits of music and even draws sometimes, definitely the artsy one of the group. give this man a canvas and some paints and you'll get cole more excited than when he sees a slice of cake

has so many spotify playlists, some of them are public and they have SO many likes. people love his music taste!

he likes talking with fans and is super down-to-earth with reporters and interviewers. he's usually the one to steer the convo to himself when morro or lloyd get a bit antsy on camera

He would definitely help and feature on nya's self-improvement a lot, he finds it fun and rewarding

publicly shares his celebrity crushes online and panics when he sees the crush actually responds

he posts his favourite cake recipes!! his favourite is chocolate <3

zane

jay introduced him to meme culture after he got unlimited access to the internet through his titanium body

it was love at first sight

he started to binge random cat videos whenever he got the time and shows them to all the others like a facebook mom showing her kids an unfunny minions meme

he's always the voice of reason in interviews, correcting little mistakes or exaggerations in story retellings and such

jay calls him a buzzkill for it, but he claims that he's just a stickler for the details

maybe after he gets more acquainted with social media, he starts a blog or maybe a yt channel for his tech rambles which heavily features jay and nya :D

pixal

never really posts much on social media because she's always so busy with ninja mission-type shit

she does get kinda flattered when little kids come up to her and ask for an autograph, she thinks it's nice samurai x is inspiring young people

zane likes showing her dumb memes and stuff, but she pretends to brush them off. (she secretly finds them kinda funny)

if you looked on her youtube recommended page, it's always covered with stupid cat videos because she once binged them for an hour straight with zane and now her youtube recommended thinks she's a crazy cat lady because she hasn't watched anything else since

harumi

in my perfect world au, she gets redeemed and lives with the ninja

people were super hesitant when the princess who committed multiple war crimes and tried to resurrect lord garmadon was getting all buddy-buddy with the ninja, but she advocates for good changes a lot and has proven herself to be good :)

already kinda used to the social spotlight from her time as a princess, except now the pressure is amplified x100

takes it like a champ tho, and she even guides lloyd through all the social pressure like a master

doesn't post too much, but sometimes responds to the ninja's dumbass tweets for the funsies

morro

even though no one really recognizes him as the ghost that destroyed stixx and tried to take over ninjago, he still gets super nervous whenever out and about. again, it's my perfect world au where he gets revived and redeemed. <3

kai told him he needs a "strong online presence in today's day and age" (he doesn't but oh well)

started to explore his style more when he got tumblr ("NO NO THATS NOT WHAT I MEANT" -kai)

he would be so unapologetically judgy with reporters because he finds it weird that they wanna know so much about his personal life (and he forgets that he's being broadcasted on live tv)

has been cancelled many times for super dumb shit (he said he likes pineapple pizza,,)

refuses to do advertisements ever since seeing that one 'reading is the start to every adventure!1!!!' ad

Haven't seen one yet, but if you start an au/headcanon list, I'll probably add on!

Is there a ninjago streamer au yet?

I don't wanna make one but I just got it a bit stuck in my head atm

I have this AU where Lily doesnt die but is in a coma instead. It basically centers around Lily and Lou’s relationship when they were younger(eg. how they met and their dynamic etc) and how Lou, Lily and Cole deal with all the conversations they didnt have before she went under.  Like how shes proud of who Cole became and is simultaneously proud of Lou for surviving/taking care of Cole when she wasnt there even though he wasnt that good of a father(’course she doesnt know that, Cole and Lou wont tell her that). 

idk lol i havent written anything for it and i just like imagining stuff. feel free to add anything to it, i want to see what everyone else is doing

there's just... there is no reason to make yet another cop show in this day and age. copaganda is not only bullshit, it is a failure of imagination.

you want to watch brooding characters with dark pasts investigate crimes in an official capacity? just use private detectives (cops have a miserable solve rate anyway). want eccentric geniuses & their sidekicks solving mysteries? i present you with armchair detectives & neighborhood busybodies. oh, you're craving a workplace comedy-drama starring overworked protagonists doing their heartfelt best to resolve community conflicts? social worker office sitcom! bitch this is ACHIEVABLE

This is kind of a tangent, but here I go:

I feel like a lot of widely known books, movies, and tv shows have this kind of trope of something which inflicts pain or suffering of some kind, and frequently, it's not a tangible thing. I haven't thought this through, so please bear with me. A lot use some form of trauma flashbacks or ptsd, but also: Harry Potter, the crucio (?) curse; Keeper of the Lost Cities, ptsd, flashbacks, and the Ability to Inflict; The Hunger Games, ptsd, plus undescribed tech (i think) and some random triggers like the birds screaming in Catching Fire; Carmen Sandiego (Netflix), fictional technology;

You see where I'm going with this? There's this kind of trope with vague but pointed suffering. For vengestone to take that role makes sense to me, here are some general headcanons about how vengestone affects Lloyd:

As he gets closer (maybe starting at around a mile away) he starts to feel gravity more, like he weighs more and everything takes more energy.

Ways that manifests itself:

Walking slower

Slower reflexes

Talks less

More grumpy

Snaps at the others more

Also as he gets closer, he starts feeling physically sick

Getting sniffly

Coughing

Achey

Slightly higher temperature (until they're really close and then it's really bad)

Headaches

Really really close and he starts hallucinating, chills, dizzy, passing out, maybe this is just covid?

Maybe he kinda becomes the canary in a coal mine? Because everyone else's signs are more subtle, each of them just kinda feeling off, but Lloyd getting sick as they're walking?? Nah.

When dealing with vengestone, they also have to be more careful because Lloyd can't fight well Under The Influence and because he's already kinda sick, so injuries will take longer to heal later.

man I know a lot of us have individual headcanons for how vengestone affects certain elements right

Jay feeling like his element is built up and trying to burst out, Kai feeling as though the fire inside him has snuffed completely, Cole feeling cut off from the earth itself etc. etc. but I don’t see much about Lloyd

And yeah Lloyd’s true “element” is up for debate but I usually work under the assumption that Lloyd is the element of Life and Energy itself and man

Doesn’t it seem like that element in particular would not do well with vengestone

Don’t you think if someone who’s element is life itself is suddenly, forcibly, unnaturally cut off from said element…

Don’t you think they’d get sick

I mean we saw what happened when Lloyd felt cut off from his power in season 8. He got sick. He was almost dying. He literally needed the other elements that make up his power to lend him some of their own or else he would have died

I just think that’s verrrrrry interesting, don’t you? :)

>more have come.
