Side Blog Project Assignment

Side Blog Project Assignment

Hey all! Usually I don’t self-promote but, while not Ninjago based, I have a major project for homework where I need to make a Tumblr Blog with 3 short stories & transmedia elements based on one of the listed prompts. I chose “Alone together” and am happy to announce a fun little blog project called “Lonely Letters from Xeria”, a found family fantasy isekai original story for your enjoyment! 

https://www.tumblr.com/blog/lonely-letters-from-xeria

I will be posting small updates daily (along with the big letter updates roughly once a week) for the next 3 weeks ; character asks are highly welcome and appreciated (though they might not be answered immediately)- feel free to check it out, ask questions if you wish (anon is available if you prefer that), you can spam questions now if you want and I'll save them for the journey, etc. or send asks during the event as the story unfolds

I hope you enjoy!

Ninjago Focus Season Shuffle Challenge!

Ayo fellow ninjago fans, I’ve got an AU challenge for you! Shuffle the focus ninja of any season (this is specifically for the WildBrain seasons, aka Season 11 onwards, but feel free to do this with prior seasons too if you feel inspired!) and see what happens. 

The WildBrain specific challenge is as follows: 

Original Focus Order:

Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitzu (Fire Chapter) = Kai

Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitzu (Ice Chapter) = Zane

Prime Empire = Jay

Master of The Mountain = Cole

The Island / Seabound = Nya

Crystalized = Lloyd

Take Seasons 11-15/16 (Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitzu Part 1 & 2, Prime Empire, Master of the Mountain, The Island/Seabound, and Crystalized) and change the focus ninja (you can also edit the season as you like to match, but try to keep some of the core elements/story beats). You can reply as a reblog (and if you rather post it yourself, please tag me! I’d love to see other ideas!) and include was much or little detail as you’d like. 

If you want, you can also change the season order a bit (and write how they affect each other), or keep it in the original order!

Have fun with it! And remember to add Crystalized spoiler tags if you add that season, which you don’t have to if you haven’t seen it yet!

Crystalized AU Idea - Vessel AU

Currently vibing with thoughts for a Crystalized AU (I’ll put it under the cut just in case the spoiler tags don’t work), feel free to send asks or use this as a prompt (just please tag me) or reblog and add your own ideas (just remember to tag spoilers!)

So the Crystal King is the vessel body of the Overlord, right?

...what if the ritual wasn’t to summon him, but to prep a new vessel host? One that’s quite familiar to us?

Option 1) Lloyd

In this version of the AU, the kidnapped Lloyd gets prepped for the ritual, and the Overlord returns possessing the hero that once vanquished him. Lloyd gets Morro trauma re-hashed, his family (who have been tearing out their hair looking for him) finally find him only for him to be possessed by the hecking OVERLORD, and Garmadon gets to have a fun reversal parallel to Season 2 in him calling for his son to fight off the Overlord.

Also Lloyd being alone when it happens, alone and scared and suddenly every bit the kid/younger teen he should be if the tea hadn’t happened, and he can do nothing to stop the Overlord from gaining the powers of Energy and the oni/dragon

Option 2) Wu

Not too many thoughts here, just the fun parallel of Wu being possessed like his brother was in S2, some of Wu’s dragon genes coming out

Option 3) Pixal

90% likely this results in a future where the Overlord wins. The other 10% he’s defeated in 5 minutes by Pixal kicking him out.

Option 4) the OG4 (Kai, Jay, Cole, AND Zane)

Four for the price of one (and my personal favourite of the bunch)! Harumi uses Lloyd to lure the four into a trap and capture them, then use them & their golden weapons in the ritual. The Overlord possesses all four at once (a 1 mind 4 bodies deal), with crystals and glowing purple eyes and slight draconic/later possibly centaur features. Sometimes just one talks for all, sometimes all four talk in sync, and sometimes one starts a sentence and the other finishes it (plus a fun mix of their original voice and the Overlord’s voice). They wield the crystalized version of the golden weapons and all their elemental powers change slightly to match the crystal theme (purple fire, purple lightning, crystal earth, and crystal ice).

The Council is half infuriated over having to bow to the four ninja, half smug over having bested them in revenge with the Overlord in control of them now. There are a few incidents where they see or hear them and nearly attack before remembering.

Also because the Overlord now has his own powers + the four elements of creation, Nya is speedrunning getting her powers back to save them. AND we get a new and improved version of the Replacement Ninja (including but not limited to: Pixal, Echo, Ronin, Fugidove, Akita, Okino & Blazey, Vania & the Upplies, and Benthomaar), and even Morro gets summoned from the Departed Realm because since he has knowledge on possessing people, he possibly has knowledge on how to UNpossess people.

He tries to hide it as long as he can but between the arm, the dragon puberty, the possible public ninja identity reveal, and the news spreading through the city, it doesn’t take too long for Koko “Irondragon” to sleuth it out

Here's an ask for the Evil Ninja Force AU

I think Wu would definitely try to work things with his students

Oh he absolutely tries. He's not going to get too far, because those six have each other's back tighter than anything and they're sick of the city's crap, but he might be able to get them to tone it down on the world domination thing a little.

They still rule the city though, at least, and maybe a few surrounding islands / continents (hc that the other realms are continents in the movie!verse, like Djinnjago and the Never Realm and the Cloud Kingdom and whatnot)

I’ve got an evil(?)!movie Zane design inspired by Snake Jaguar? From a timeline where the Ninjaforce finally snapped under the way they were treated (after Koko gets hurt and comatosed while civilians mock her and blame Lloyd), take out Garmadon, and then take over the city

I think it would be fun if y'all reblogged this or sent me an ask with a picture of how you normally draw zane so i can draw some different zane designs for fun :]
