Dragons Rising Season 2 - Tumblr Posts

The Heart, The Brains, and The Danger!!!
A little something to celebrate "Dragon's Rising Season 2 Eve"
I AM SOOOOO PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!
Dragons Rising Season 2 Spoilers!!!
I have a lot of thoughts on the new season, but this is one of them.
TW: Loud noise at the end
Nya, sweetie.... You have a big storm coming.๐ฅบ
The angst potential when they finally find each other! It's going to be so good and yet hurt so bad!!!
(Also, "the love of my life." That's it, guys. I'm deceased. I will never recover.)
(Also, "Nya slowly becoming more comfortable with outward displays of affection and speaking her feelings around others" character arc, my beloved. That's just one of my headcannons for her okay. ๐ฅฒ)
(Bento's your Arin)

He's not the neatest little guy, but I'm pretty happy with how he turned out!
Maybe one day I'll take a class so I can learn actual Bento making techniques. That sounds like a lot of fun!
But for now, I just like trying to make food that looks like my favorite characters! Even if they don't quite look the best.
If anyone else has made any fun Ninjago themed food, I would love to see it! Aesthetic food is my jam!
(I would love to see another bento Arin, too! Especially made by someone who actually knows what they're doing! Unlike me. ๐)
Oh my gosh guys, guys, guys!!!
Idea time!!!
I personally can't see Arin going fully evil.
I can definitely see his frustration and anger, but he's a good kid, and I dont think he'd do anything malicious on purpose. But I do think he's in a prime position to get manipulated right now. He's at his lowest point, and he could possibly be willing to do anything to impress and prove himself to Llyod.
What I think would be really interesting is if, via manipulation, Ras could get Arin to let his guard down and maybe even get him to listen to his point of view a bit.
("I lost my parents too, you know, and I found a way to make it on my own. I had to be strong. I learned that i didn't need anyone else, only myself." I don't know. That might be an angle that Ras could exploit, effectively drawing Arin away from his friends.)
(I mean, I'm assuming, according to that flashback sequence, that Ras's parents weren't really around.)
Maybe Arin would even start to trust Ras a little. Or at least start to doubt Lloyd's methods of teaching. (Which to be honest, Lloyd, you're not doing yourself any favors with your teaching technique, buddy. I know you're trying to encourage the kid, but you're giving him an unrealistic idea of a future self he has to measure up to.)
I think Arin is putting a lot of pressure on himself too.
So Arin doesn't necessarily join Ras, but somehow ends up facing off with him a bit more than usual during fights or something. Ras singles him out, trying to plant more of those seeds of doubt. Maybe Ras gets him alone, and, either willingly or by force, Arin ends up wearing a wolf mask.
I mean, is Shatterspin technically evil if you're using it to fight bad guys? I mean, it's not like his own spinjitzu is helping anyway.
Maybe, Lloyd or Sora look over and see Arin wearing the mask. Maybe they run to him, and ask what the heck he is thinking!
Maybe Arin is embarrassed. He feels sorry and ashamed. He knows he made a mistake. He goes to take the mask off.
But before he can, the gong is struck, and his soul is shattered.
All of the emotions come flooding out. He's angry. So very angry. Angry at Llyod for putting all this pressure on him. Angry at Sora for progressing so far and leaving him behind. Angry at himself for not doing something, SOMETHING, more to find his parents.
We get a scene similar to that bit in Season 4 with Kai and the staff of elements. Arin just loses control, and all the anger, doubt, and fear come spewing out.
That's what I want.
I want him to voice his frustrations to his friends. And at the moment, I think Arin is just so nice that he doesn't want to bother anyone and isn't going to say anything.
But as the saying goes, "even a worm will turn"
In other words, even the nicest and sweetest people will show you how dangerous they can be if pushed too far.
So, um. Arin deserves to go feral. Just as a little treat.
THATS WHAT IM SAYINNN

*knock knock knock* hello ninjago tumblr, I drew your boy, may I come in?
I will never find it NOT funny how one of the sideplots in DR season 2 is literally just. some pathetic 22 year old guy having beef with a petty 15 year old girl over who gets to be second-in-command of their grumpy furry boss
Iโve been watching DR S2 and is it just me when I say Zane feels like a background character?
(spoiler under cut)
He lost the tournament in his FIRST ROUND. It wasn't even a long fight! I know main characters aren't immune, but..seriously?
I know ZANE of all the ninja couldโve won that match. Since the writers are really hammering down the fact that heโs a robot in these past seasons, why make him lose a match against one of the easiest elemental masters?
I feel like if Zane is really embracing this robotic side of him, he could detect objects/people at high speeds. His reflexes would be more advanced (like a robot) if the writers weren't using him as another punching bag this season.
Poor guy can't get a break.

Why were they so casual about that?
