And Being Brought Back By Harumi But "only The Evil Him" Makes Him Very Concerned, As We Saw In Season

And being brought back by Harumi but "only the evil him" makes him very concerned, as we saw in season 16.

Genuinely convinced of my personal headcanon where Garmadon was never actually evil, even after the snakey bite. Like I'm constantly getting the vibe that his dad saw him acting like a moody little kid, and just kinda convinced himself and his children that the snake bite made him evil.

Garmadon (S1-2) never feels like a guy who is evil, but a guy acting out his, at best, childish interpretation of what an evil person would do. It feels more like some kind of misplaced obligation to him than anything. The dude literally orders his minions out of the room, then insecurely asks the Overlord if he should have "flipped a table or something".

This doesn't read to me as someone who IS ontologically evil. This is a guy who was told he was evil and was expected to be evil so many times he started to lean into it.

Here's a drawing I made a while ago for this year's anniversary of TLNM aka the movie that changed my brain chemistry for life, I LOVE THEM SO MUCH SGDHSDGSG

Honestly these are so accurate. I want to see videos now. Like I don't need episodes with bad guys and drama, I just want daily interactions and dodgeball games

train of events + my constant thoughts of lego led to:

ninjago characters in a dodgeball game

of COURSE powers and spinjitzu are allowed. who do you think they are

except for cole. cole is not allowed to use his super strength to throw anything because it will put a hole through something or someone

that being said, tiny tiny earthquakes to throw someone off balance is not off the table

definitely targets jay

you already know kai and jay are competitive as fuck. both in the game and in screaming bloody murder the loudest

i think they would both use some elemental power to charge up the throw, like that short where they’re chopping bricks (i forgot the name lmao)

jay WHIPS the ball like no one else (cause lightning 😎) AND plus the lightning charge up?? bros out for blood

little bit of a sore loser but he forgets about it pretty quickly

kai is such a sore loser let’s be honest now

but if he wins he’s holding it above the others forever

i think he’s got shit aim lmao

in fights he’s so used to making a big ass blast of fire and shooting it in the general direction he doesn’t need to aim

that being said he definitely torches the dodgeballs midair

regardless of if they’re about to hit him or not

zane however has scarily accurate aim, being a nindroid and all

he always hits them on the shoulder

he’s not above freezing the floor and making them slip. you would think he is, but he’s not.

mfs got strategies and scenarios planned out and everything

he is here to WIN

lloyd “it’s just a game guys, lets just have fun” garmadon and lloyd “i will hold a grudge against the person who got me out for the rest of my life” garmadon are ideas that could and absolutely do coexist

i think he’s a bad thrower. like he CAN throw, he’s just not as good as the rest of them

gets people out by catching the ball more than actually hitting them (he’s got practice with catching HANDS)

nya absolutely decimates them

goes easy on jay and is out for kai’s head

jay SAYS he was going easy on her, and in return she nails him in the stomach with a ball

jay is no longer going easy on her

she’s just as much of a sore loser as kai is

wu and garmadon would play something like dodgeball when they were younger

it mostly involved chucking whatever they could find at each other at random times

garmadon called it training. wu called it being childish and petty

catch him throwing cans straight at garmadons head just to hear the hollow “tonk” sound (if they had cans back then lmao)

so there’s really no way to declare a winner

garmadon says he won though

if morro was alive and/or with the ninja he is here to WIN. nothing less.

if he’s still a ghost then he couldn’t really participate

he’s kinda salty about it cause he knows he would absolutely destroy them

at least that’s what he says

if he was alive tho

fucking jukes everyone. breaking ankles left and right

i like to think he’s agile and fast as hell cause wind and everything

contrary to popular belief he doesn’t use the wind to block anything thrown at him

the point of dodgeball is to dodge. if he gets hit, then it’s his failure and incompetence

THROWING with the wind however,, he’s only playing to his strengths, that’s all

he and lloyd definitely target each other. whoever wins, it’s a matter of pride on both sides

Oh gosh, now I'm the one that's totally fine, definitely not crying. How could you do this to me? There was no warning.

No no yeah im totally not emotional over the fact that, despite the fact that his vision of Aspheera blasting him caused him visible distress, the moment his friends were in danger he not only allowed the vision to come true, but he actively fulfilled it himself. Even though it had troubled and upset him. When push came to shove, he made the vision come true. It was his love for his friends that caused his undoing.

And no, im definitely not emotional about the fact that even though he didnt know if hed ever see his friends again, he still took the time to make a farewell recording for them. He didnt even anticipate them seeing it, instead addressing some unknown stranger in the distant future. Hoping someone, anyone, would know who he was, know he was there, know that he loved his friends very much. His farewell message didnt talk about his accomplishments, or even how he ended up in this mess. He just listed off all the people who matter to him. And this was perhaps the last thing he would do with his free will for the next 50 years. Zane's last act before having all the love torn from his heart, was to tell his friends how much he loved them. His last act before having his sense of self destroyed and his identity warped beyond recognition, was to make sure someone, anyone, knew who he was and what had happened to him.

Yeah, im totally fine, dont worry about it. Not feeling anything at all.

Lloyd intercepting is so Canon!Lloyd. Protective, but still a younger brother. A part of the prank wars but also slightly in awe of his "older brother".

Your hc about kai being spared from prank wars bc of big brother privileges is so right I love you. I can imagine a massive prank war going on and kai having no idea its happening because lloyd specifically intercepts any pranks that would affect kai

anon… I love you MORE!!

imagine Kai just waking up on the morning wearing cat slippers and walking outside and he sees all the ninja on the floor and he looks at Lloyd and Lloyd shrugs and says, “prank war.”

half the time kai doesn’t even know a prank war is going on because

1) the master of pranks (Lloyd) does not touch him

2) anyone who lays a prank on Kai is to be demolished by the master of pranks
