Losers Round 7, Match 2: Leif (Bug Fables) vs. Zane Julien (Lego Ninjago)
Leif Propaganda:
he's a silly lil guy who has seen the Horrors™️. unwillingly subjected to experimentation and fusing with a corpse after being abandoned, he woke up decades later with amnesia, trauma and ice powers! they join a rag-tag explorer team in hopes to uncover who he is and help his new friends with they're quest
Zane Propaganda:
zane julien is the white/titanium ninja and master of ice! he has died the most out of all the ninjas, but it's fine, he always gets better :) once he went mad for a season because of time travel shenanigens, became an emperor, and killed an entire group of people (and then canon just forgot). we've never had a proper zane season which is A CRYING SHAME. oh yeah and he's a robot! and he can cook! you're really not going to vote for a character who can cook? for shame.
Something familiar
This was a gift for the awesome @icedrawssomestuff. I really hope you liked it!
Nothing like befriending someone who you care for, a lot, and who was very important for you and you were very important for. But you will never see eachother again.
NINJAGQ
'Ninjagq, Spinja Masters' is a completely original story about me, Jerald, and my friends Kyle, Zachary, and Calcium. Enjoy my first comic. I know, it's incredible.
My entry for @spinchip 's DTIYS !! I hope you like it, I've tried to be as creative as possible :)
Normally I don't post here as I cannot use tumblr at all, but I just had to,, I love Zane, I love The Ice Emperor, I love drawing contests,,
I've tried to make it look like a stained glass window since the ninja are (sometimes) treated like the saviours and just thought that since Zane already had a funeral and a statue they should've made him a little more artsy stuff too.
I've tried to make his face fit the dtiys' one with the faceplate chipped off, 'blood' oozing out, the black eyes, and the shoulder pads,,, :3
Congrats on 4k, you deserve it <3
(also I hope this reaches you, I genuinely have no idea how this works, I'm only used to instagram. You can find me there :D
Finally finished that old man Zane piece
best man frfr
hey I just wanted to drop by and say how much I love how you draw Zane; he’s always so gender in your art style
Ty!! For u here’s Zane from my last post w no blood
Ultra Violet did not get scared. The word wasn’t in her vocabulary. When her sister screamed and cried and tattled to mom about the horror movie Ultra Violet had chosen, she was dry eyed and annoyed they couldn’t handle something as mild as SAW. She carried herself as a woman who didn’t fear anything. She was the one people were afraid of, not the other way around, and that’s how she liked it.
She’s not thinking about this as she races down the back alley, so certain in her steadfast nature that the strange barely suppressed panic that bubbled up her chest had been easily dismissed. She’d faced the ninja plenty of times before, and sure Zane may be her most annoying foe to face, there was no reason for the unease she’d felt when he stood across from her. He didn't act any different than the last time they’d battled. When she turned tail and ran, it was because she was out numbered. She wasn’t scared. She wasn’t following the warning bells ringing in the back of her head when brilliant blue eyes zeroed in on her like a hawk catching sight of a mouse. It was Zane, there was no reason to be afraid.
She turns a corner and comes to a brick wall, a dead end. Despite how calm and unafraid she definitely was, her heart rate jumped and her palms began to sweat. She whipped around, looking for another escape route- a ladder access to the fire escape, up to the roof? A sewer drain cover she could slip in? Anything, please-
Zane rounds the corner in a jog, coming to a stop when he realizes she's trapped.
She’s trapped.
Like an insect pinned to a board. He’s scrutinizing her just the same, but there’s something about his expression- about the way he carries himself that’s just- just-
Scary.
“Fine,” She tries to snarl, but her voice shakes, “You caught me. Just take me back to Kryptarium.” She’s trying to hold what little ground she has, preserving her dignity.
He takes a step forward and she immediately takes a step back, adrenaline flooding her veins. She can’t run anymore, so there goes flight. All that's left is to fight, and shes overcome with a strange certainty that she won’t win this one.
He stills, standing in the only spot the neon sign lights don't reach.
“Well, come on. Arrest me!” Are her hands shaking? Is her heartbeat loud enough that he can hear it?
The air thins, each breath harder to draw. She’s zeroed in on him, eyes so wide the whites are visible all around her iris. He takes another step forward, then another, steadily moving towards her. She’s given up any pretense of bravery, shoving herself back against the unforgiving brick wall behind her, scuttling into the corner to put any distance she can between them. His presence is massive in the back alley, a black hole that seems to swallow up all light until it is just her and him suspended in darkness.
He stops right in front of her, his eyes are pinpricks of electric blue that spear right through her head, pinning her in place. Her breath fogs in front of her, her hands are shaking from a mix of fear and cold.
“What do you want from me?” She breathes, his overwhelming presence stealing her voice.
His expression changes minutely, and she's instantly aware she’s going to die. He’s going to kill her. It’s right there, in his eyes- the way he’d been examining her before, he was trying to think of a reason to spare her. He weighed her soul and found it wanting. The decision, the choice he made to end her life, holds no weight to him. He almost looks bored as he raises his hand, fingers misting with flecks of snow and frost.
“Zane?” A voice calls, and his hand stills for a long moment before it aborts its movement completely.
“Here!” He calls, and it’s the first word she’s heard him say this whole time. His voice is light and casual, jarring in comparison to the detached cold of his eyes. Eyes that want her wiped off the face of Ninjago. “I have located Ultra Violet.”
“Is she dead?” She recognizes Lloyd's voice, coming closer. The question isn't accusatory, but it's said so casually that Ultra Violet rapidly begins to go through the roster of her Fellow Kryptarium inmates in her head, wondering if the ones who she hadn’t seen in a while had been…
Zane tips his head, eyes still fixed on her. His hand twitches. “Not yet.”
“Let’s keep it that way.” Lloyd says, rounding the corner.
They escort her back to prison.
She doesn't watch scary movies for a long time.
Shoutout to everyone who has died and come back sluttier each time
Let's move on to the second poll!!
Because Lloyd won the first poll, he won't be included in this poll.
:)
YALL BETTER ADOPT HIM
THIS GUY IS THE DEFENITION OF CINNAMON ROLL
Ok so I was re-watching Ninjago ( please don't judge me i needed comfort and Ninjago is my comfort show. ) and I had this idea
Pairing Lou ( Coles dad) x reader Son Cole x mother reader platonic!
Pronouns used she/her sorry to my non binary royals and my gay royals
Tw death mention and hospitals
Flashback to when Cole was younger
You are in the hospital. " Mom!" Young Cole yelled as he ran over to you. " Hello my little world." You replied in and attempted to sit up. " You’re dad told me you got into a fight today. " You said . " I'm sorry mom." Cole replied " I don't want you to be sick anymore please please. " Young Cole begged. You and Lou shared a look and he walked out. " My little love the one's who we love dearly never truly leave us ." You said making the tiny Cole crack a smile. " You'll go on to do great things. " You smiled brightly at the little boy who had fallen asleep in your arms. You had a sneaking suspension that you had passed your Earth element onto him.
You were released a few weeks after that from the hospital . You lived for about 5 years after that before you peaceful died in your sleep.
Flashback over
Now Cole was fighting the skull sorcerer sorry I mean kill Vangelis when he came to realizations. " It was her it was all her. The blades never had power it was all my mom she did it with the spinjitzu first ". Cole muttered. " Alas your not half the warrior Y/n was!" Vangelis said. " Maybe not but I am her son." Cole replied and Cole managed to defeat Vangelis. " Thank you mom." Cole muttered to himself after it was all over.
" You have nothing to thank me for son you did it on your own and I'm so incredibly proud of you my life world. " You said from the after life
Decades Doever
A little idea I had laying in my bed. The basic thought process was: Ninjago's two characters who have literally been sent to a realm to rot in for literal DECADES. Morro, who's already struggling with his own exile from the departed realms finds a manipulated Zane and manipulator Vex. I mean both of them can't grow too old, and Morro probably would want a redemption for his deeds, the white ninja may be his path to doing it. Zane is interested in the departed realm, hearing that Morro is from it (even if it's not in the most pretty ways), it intrigues him to learn more about the former ghost, and how he may see his father one day. More Info underneath the cut!
Morro's literal backstory Once an elemental master dies they can not only see their family in the departed realm, but if they are not blood related nor can remember their family (cough cough, Zane), they can also meet the departed elemental masters that came before them. The little groupings of elemental masters hold great power, having the ability to traverse the 16 realms but regarded as something different than a ghost, more similar to a peaceful spirit or aura passing by. Unable to be seen by the living, sometimes depending on their mental will having the ability to converse in dreams and visions. When Morro finally get's sent to the Departed realm, as an orphan and being 50+ years old he cannot simply remember his family, so he get's sent and transported to the elemental grouping of Wind Masters. They don't like him. And so after a rather horrid argument the elders, the first elemental master of wind (FMOF), decides to send them down to never-realm, being previously used as a waste deposal of other Elemental Master's (more than just wind) that have gone "rogue" in the Departed Realm. The FMOF graced some mercy to Morro, convening with one of the form masters in order to see that they could return him in some sort of ghostly form, if they sent them down there as is, it would result him becoming living once more. Morro being the wonderous human (ish) being he is stumbles across this conversation, eaves dropping and taking notes. So when the final ritual(?) takes place he lashes out and does his best to ruin the spell, the only thing being that: 1. It works 2. He's not alive, and instead, has been merged with the storm. There he goes barreling down into the artic wasteland that provides an abundance of wind and storms to command, but despite the feast-like appearance of power and his element, Morro knows and regards this as a banishment. Dude got banished from death itself.
How Zane is connected in any of this Being also wonderfully banished and sent to the Never-Realm (via: Aspheera, Nacho Snake lady) he is also lost on his way. The only canon divergence or well difference being, when he's holding a staff he can feel another, stronger, rivaling, presence. Zane tries his best to fix the mech and eventually get's memory wiped by Vex. Back to the main plot line Morro additionally the counteracting sensation of another elemental power, and although it's not as strong as he isn't a master of Spinjitzu, he still senses it and decides to drift off on a storm cloud in that direction. Reaching the cave just when Zane plugs himself into the mech, disregarding the staff in general (in this AU I don't think young Wu would've told him about it), being confused in the slightest before getting a rush of Lloyd's memories he intercepted during possession of the titanium ninja, and dashing away behind the mech when he hears Vex's footsteps. Watching the whole exchange happen before his eyes, he decides to step in at the last moment, using his cool (very new) lightning powers. Being a somewhat super battle with the staff that he's honestly wonders how the ninja got a hold of, and his amplified form. During the exchange he does lay hands upon the staff and his powers go A-wire, somewhat breaks space and time, smacks Zane in the noggin to regain select memories. Vex fleeing the scene and barely recovering Zane prying Morro; who's form and right hand is practically melding into the staff, away from the supercharged stick. Although both mutually dislike each other they suppose they are both in the predicament of needing company for the days, weeks, and unbeknown to them, years to come. Morro not knowing how robotics or in general any mechanics in Zane works, opts for the: I'll just sit here and regret my decision as my partial robot friend has a reoccuring flashbacks for several decades while having an ongoing existential crisis I am little help to. Zane does believe Morro holds some interesting tales and description on, why and specifically how both are here. Morro just thinking it's something he can do to make up for acts, probably go see Lloyd (despite him probably bolting as soon as he see's the green gi), and maybe just maybe get somehow reaccepted back into the departed realms.
I know i usually do dp but i had a crossover idea
Ninjago x atla
More specifically if the main cast of ninjago was in atla
Cole would of course be an earth bender, i don't think too much would change about his history just put it in atla(i don't know a whole lot about coles backstory)
Zane would be a water bender that specialize in ice, of course zane would be human here so his history would have to change some, lets say zane was originally part of the northern water tribe but for one reason or another he ended up somewere in the earth kingdom with Amnesia.
For jay i think it would be both funny and kinda ironic for him to be a fire bender but struggles with the most basic form of fire bending but can still lighting bend just fine, for his history I'd say that his parents (i forget their names) are still mechanics but they work for the fire nation (its up to you if it's willingly or not) and jay ran from the fire nation
Kai would of course be a fire bender, lets say that ray was a fire bender who ranaway with maya a water bender and later the fire nation found them and killed them leaving kai and nya alone
Nya woud be a water bender, same as above and that similar to the ninjago pilot she was taken by the fire nation and kai had to go rescue her wich is how they meet the group
I think wu would actually be a non-bender who just really skilled and wise, he traveled the world and one by one came across the ninja instead of actively seeking them out like in the show.
I think lloyd would ether be a non-bender or a air bender, so garmadon would be a fire nation general and misako/koro would be either a non-bender or air bender and lloyd would have been mostly raised by wu.
For how they all met it would be mostly the same as the show, and they travels around in a group across the land and sea mostly avoiding the fire nation
Omg yes plz 🤩😂
Wu has been woken up at 4 in the morning to find Kai and Jay in a very intense Just Dance battle as Cole and Zane just watch in confused awe and you can’t change my mind.
Watch Your Mouth (Cryptid AU)
Ayeee so I’ve got three SPBNR Cryptid AU snippets for you all, see the previous post for a bit of summary. This snippet follows a cryptid hunt with Red (m!Kai) and m!Zane (featuring some good ‘ol Zane angst!)
Because what are cryptids good at? Not being caught on camera. It’s always blurry or glitchy or missed. So what happens if your eyes are a camera... >:3
Red was sure he was gonna catch the Red Blur tonight. There was no way his foolproof plan could fail. Not a chance. Zippo. Nada. Big fat goose egg. He was going to catch the Red Blur, and he was going to make them explain everything. Such as:
Who/what are you?
Why are you haunting Ninjago City?
Are you training me to be your cryptid apprentice/successor please I'm begging you to explain I've been in the middle of an existential identity crisis for days-
The difference between this attempt to catch the Red Blur and the dozens of other attempts was one thing. No, it was not a lack of caffeine.
This time, Red had an accomplice.
"Ron to Billy, this is Ron to Billy. Do you read me? Over."
"Billy to Ron!" came Zane's cheerful reply through the comms. "I can read you. Over."
Red surveyed the city from his perch on the windowsill of the skyscraper. He'd gotten there by totally not committing a little trespassing during the off-office hours and sneaking onto the twentieth floor. He was dressed in his ninja gi instead of his Heatstroke gear simply because Zane was here and he didn't want to blow his cover, and he knew the Red Blur had been keeping tabs on Heatstroke so he didn't want to grab their attention.
"Do you have visual yet?" Red asked. He might have found a perch a little too high up, because it was difficult to make out what the shapes and lights below were. But it was dramatic and it felt cool and he had a little too much 5 hour energy in his system to change his mind now.
"Well yes, but actually no," Zane replied.
"So the Red Blur has yet to show their face..." Red mused. "We'll catch them yet."
A few more minutes of silence followed as the two kept watch, Zane at a much safer spot near street level down the block. If Red squinted, he could make out a white smear that was either his friend or a blurry patch in his vision- he'd been having a couple of those 'blind spots' since the first sightings of the Red Blur, and they were driving him nuts.
"Billy to Ron," Zane said after another few minutes. His tone sounded a little less cheerful than before. "Nothing yet..."
Red readjusted his perch grip. "Don't worry, we've got this! Neither of us are gonna miss them, no matter how blurry this Red Blur gets or how hard it is to catch them on camera and stuff. We've got our eyes, nature's best cameras!"
"Yeah... yeah! We have norm- nature's best cameras. Normal eyes."
Red shook his head a little to clear the ever persistent edge of fuzziness, squinting down at the streets below. A prickling sensation was starting to poke at his skin, and not just one of the caffeine's side effects. The feeling of someone staring at him, a feeling he'd gotten well in-tune with during his nightly Red Blur chases. Yet another cryptic bit of cryptid training.
"Ron to Billy, you sure you haven't seen anything?"
"No." Zane sounded uncertain. "No, I haven't seen any-"
There was a pause. "Billy?" Another few seconds without reply. "Zane?"
"I think I should return home." Zane suddenly said, a little too chipper. "It is getting late, and my mom will be all up in my case if I'm up too late."
Red frowned. "Zane? Are you okay? Are you-" His fingers tightened on the windowsill. "Are you being threatened? Reply with Road Work Ahead if you are-"
"I'm perfectly fine, Kai! I just think I should go home, and so should you. It is late. Being up so late wears out our eyes! Did you know: 35% of teens need glasses?"
Something was up, even if Zane wasn't being threatened after all. Eyes- why did he keep mentioning eyes? Was his vision off? Did the Red Blur mess with his eyesight somehow, like with a smokescreen, or a hallucination (Red had gotten caught in one of those before, so surely it was within the Red Blur's abilities), or a-
It hit Red with the subtly of a freight train. Oh. Oh no, no, poor Zane, no, Red had messed up again, why didn't he ever think this things through, he'd just made everything worse been so excited to have a friend be interesting in hunting down the Red Blur that he hadn't even thought about but when did he ever stop to think cameras, of course, the Red Blur was a cryptid and couldn't be caught by cameras, so Zane- poor Zane must've-
"Hey," Red said softly, trying to keep his voice steady despite the jitteriness from the caffeine. For once he wished he hadn't downed the pot before tonight's escapade. "Zane, bro, I'm- I get it, I'm sorry I-"
"You don't need to apologize!" Zane's voice was still much too chipper. "It is late and the Red Blur isn't showing up tonight, that is not your fault. We should-"
Red interrupted him. "No, Zane, I'm sorry for- for making you feel not normal-"
"I am perfectly normal and don't feel anything but.” Zane’s forced chipperness had a sharp edge to it, like a jagged icicle.
"That's not- I didn't mean-" Red was floundering now- why oh why had he opened his mouth, he made everything worse AGAIN, why couldn't he just say it right why was he always accidentally hurting the people he cared about, why was he so- u̴͊͜s̷̺͒e̷̲̕l̸̨̾e̸͇̅s̶̠̈́s̵̻͐- "Zane, you're-"
"A perfectly normal average teen."
"No- yes- I-"
"I'll see you at school tomorrow, Kai."
click
Red's heart dropped at the deafening silence the comm left him with. "Zane? Zane, I'm- I'm sorry, please don't-"
The white smudge below was moving, walking away, no, no, he couldn't- his friend-
Red reached a hand forward, as if he could grab his friend from here and bundle him into a hug and apologize a million times, but he couldn't, because he'd messed up AGAIN, and now Zane was hiding his feelings, and- and- a n d-
Red's foot slipped and he overbalanced.
It's funny. He didn't even notice he was falling until he stopped.
The feeling of the wind slapping him in the face, the skim of his leg on the windowsill as his body tried and failed to catch him without his mind knowing what was happening, the blur of lights in his face, all didn't register until there was a warm arm wrapped around his middle and he was lying on the roof of a nearby building.
A strangled gasp pulled itself free from his stopped lungs, heart slamming in his chest as his brain caught up with time. Holy FSM, he'd accidentally slipped off the windowsill on the twentieth floor, how-
The arm pulled him upright and held him, a warm presence at his back. It felt... familiar. Soothing. He went slack, the last of the caffeine burning away. Tears pricked his eyes. Zane-
Something was tied around his leg. Nothing like a chain or something to spark panic, just a piece of fabric. He hadn't realized he'd gashed his leg on the building when he fell, too worried about Zane to realize how far forward he'd tipped. He wasn't even that cold; he hadn't fallen very far before he'd been caught. By-
He knew, and yet he didn't. His brain was going in loops, kept going back to Zane's voice, then to how tired he felt. Tomorrow. Tomorrow he'd go apologize to Zane face-to-face. For now- for now he could- could-
His head tipped down to his chest as he leaned back into the comforting warmth and passed out.
So, one of the best ways to watch/rewatch the movie is frame-by-frame (or at least, slow-mo). The movie is actually super pretty, especially the set design. And, in classic lego movie style, all smear frames usually use lego pieces, which makes some very fluid and smooth quick-action.
But when you slow it down, coupled with the fact The LEGO Ninjago Movie is a little... loose with rules-
You get the most hilarious freeze frames and expressions. Which I naturally screenshot-ed to share with all of you today, first because I was bored and it sounded fun, then because I was laughing my head off.
So, below are frames from specifically that promo video (the quality is a little fuzzy which honestly just makes it even funnier)- and one day I’ll start posting some of the screenshots I found from the movie itself, once I actually organize that folder because I keep finding new ones.
Enjoy.
Starting with the green bean himself-
a very >:( boy
Next up, his dad, who just loves to stretch a lego leg much further than it’s supposed to.
Good sir please put your helmet back on-
Sir your leg-
Following Sir-I-Don’t-Care-About-Physics, we’ve got-
Behold. The majestic Water Ninja.
And don’t forget her brother!
‘Why’d my sword melt’
I think this is the angriest we see him in the whole movie, and it’s not even in the movie
Right after, we got m!Zane doing his best! :D
But that one’s kinda tame, right? WELL- m!Cole’s got you covered, because his little scene includes the distortion effect from the shockwave his hammer makes
Sir, that’s not a hammer, that’s a pickaxe-
Oh dear mother of mayhem what happened-
And then we’re back to spinning-
Side note, the spinning smear frames are actually quite pretty and the effect they make when on normal speed is super cool
And then we have m!Jay, who just-
YEET. But at least he stuck the landing- oh. Oh dear. Buddy, are you alright-
Heyyy bud, I can’t tell what’s your hand and what’s your leg. You’re just a pile of googly gob. But at least you don’t break physics when you spin- no, wait, he does.
Sir, you are a lego, I’m not sure you’re supposed to bend that way.
Aw fiddlesticks, he can’t hear us, he’s having too much fun
Aaaaaand onto Koko! Look at how amazing she looks-
Well, mostly amazing. Add that one to the expressions chart!
But hey, we’re done! Surely there’s not more freeze-frame worthy moments-
Wait, Master Wu, what are you- NO! PUT THAT LEG BACK THE WAY IT’S SUPPOSED TO OR SO HELP ME-
*Sigh* Can’t catch a break, huh. At least his nephew is-
...well, not the worst expression I’ve seen. He’s at least not breaking physics, so he’s-
m!Lloyd Montgomery Smith Garmadon, you are a lego, your leg is not supposed to touch your back, put it back-
m!KAI-
STOP ADDING EXTRA LEG-
FOR THE LOVE OF- okay, okay, we’re calm, we’re almost done, nobody else is gonna do anything crazy, it’s gonna be fi-
Thin ice, m!Nya, thin ice. Bent too far forward over your front leg, but you landed in a sick split, I gotta give you style points.
Okay. NOW they’re posing for the title card, so nobody’s gonna do anything crazy-
Garmadon, what are you-
NO-
SIR, YOUR LEG- STOP IT WITH THE LEG- GARMALEG ALERT, SOMEBODY STOP THIS MAN
LOOK WHAT HE DID, HE SCARED THE HAIR/HEAD RIGHT OFF OF m!COLE!
Seriously, these legos...
But now we’re done for real (until I eventually make a movie screenshot post)
I hope you enjoyed these priceless screenshot freeze-frames as much as I did.
Lego Ninjago Movie New, Secret Promo Video.
Boi, if only the Movie would have been this cool.
You know—
Cole was travelling around for a while too after he ran away from the dance school. He was out rock-climbing whatever mountain he could find. And we know that powers didn’t just come from their weapons, so he’s likely had superstrength & improved climbing skills that he didn’t notice—
So imagine this:
Local Villager: Making my way to the market, walking fast, faces pass—
[Sees a teen free-scale a 90 degree sheer cliff with no supplies, no rope, and no shirt in three seconds flat.]
Local Villager:
Local Villager, picking up speed: Walking faster so the spider demon cryptid doesn’t get me—
And heck, while we’re at it, if Jay ever tested any of his other intentions in the city/edge of the desert— POV you’re driving down the only road for miles in the Sea of Sand, it’s dawn, still dark but the barest hints of sunlight, mostly lit up by the sparking, flickering old street lamps here and there. You suddenly spot a strange shape at the side of the road and slow down, peering with squinting, curious eyes out of your window.
Bright beams of light like glowing eyes (special goggles) snap up to stare at you. You can’t really make out anything else— crooked shapes like mangled wings, perhaps, or jutting limbs out of the sand.
Startled and scared, you floor it, watching as all the street lamps around you suddenly fizzle out with a wild pop as if the lightbulbs just exploded. You hear an almost inhuman screech behind you, and vow never to drive this road again— at least not without the noon sun watching your back.
Anyway so yeah Zane, Cole, and Jay all having old cryptid rumours about them without knowing it, and Kai having heard about all three from passing travellers in his village while working the forge. He finds out later those three “Cryptids” are now his teammates
And then along comes Lloyd with even more cryptid rumours of the “red eyed feral raccoon child in the darkness that steals sugar” because Oni + dragon + candy-crazy runaway ex-Darkley’s kid
Dude I like to think that in his early life living in the woods with Dr Julien, Zane was a local cryptid for a while. There's just this really tall, almost expressionless guy dressed in all white that wanders around the woods. If he sees you struggling, sometimes firewood for the winter will show up outside your house. He disappears into the forest without a trace or a sound as soon as you see him. People make up stories about him. "Yeah I got this scar from the white demon of the forest" and "my family was blessed with extra fish because we left out warm soup for the winter spirit"
I just think that would be neat
Fic Prompt #1!
Boreas = Show Zane
Red = Movie Kai
Ship Name: Icedcoffee (technically a version of opposite shipping)
----
"Do not give me that look."
Red peeks over the kitchen island. "But Boreasssss-"
Boreas shakes his head. "Absolutely not. I sincerely apologize, but i cannot allow you to continue with this."
Red shoots him his best puppy-dog eyes. Boreas tightens the Look of Disappointment™️ on his face, though his fingers tremble ever so slightly. "I said no, Lantern, and that is final. It is for your own health."
Red climbs onto the kitchen island and slides over it so he's standing in front of Boreas. "Pleeeeaaaassse? I need it for cryptid hunting."
"You cannot go cryptid hunting tonight, it is a school night," Boreas counters, though there's a faint hitch to his voice. "I'm sorry, Red, but for the sake of your health and grades-"
His boyfriend leans into him, peering up with wide amber eyes and a faint pout. "But tonight's a great night for hunting Mothman... the moon is full and everything..."
The slight tremble to Boreas' fingers increases as he turns his head to the side, avoiding looking at Red. "I'm sorry. Please do not give me that look, this is for your own good."
"Okay..."
Red's quiet voice makes Boreas pause, and the tall nindroid makes the mistake of looking back down at his boyfriend.
His power source melts.
"Perhaps..." he starts, voice cracking. "Perhaps I can brew you an alternative mix. The "Potion of Could Kill the FSM", as you call that dreadful mix of caffeine, sugar, and 5-hour energy, is very bad for your health and I cannot in good mind allow you to drink it, especially at such an unreasonable hour. But perhaps... perhaps I can instead brew you some nice hot chocolate, and we could curl up with a movie together?"
Red looks at him as if he just offered him a plate of gold. "Cuddling? You and me?"
His face slowly goes red with a blush, and a few embers flicker in his gelled hair.
Aha. Boreas has him hooked now.
"Yes," he says. "Perhaps we can share a blanket? You could rest in my lap as well."
Red starts to bounce in joy. "Screw Mothman, I'm finding us the coziest blanket in the house-"
Boreas smiles. "That would be lovely, Lantern."
Red beams back. "Anything for you, Snowball!"
The coffee is poured down the drain as Red races out of the room, and Boreas chuckles to himself.
He really is in love with this bi disaster, isn't he.
S!Kai 53
"You’re right. I have no idea what I’m doing. I’m just making it up as I go along."
As soon as the words are out of his mouth, Kai feels three pairs of eyes turn to him.
Whoops. He probably shouldn’t have admitted it after all.
Well, no turning back now! He’s the elemental master of fire, unfortunately, not the elemental master of time.
Cole raises an eyebrow, eye twitching ever so slightly. “…you’re joking, right?”
Jay has far less tact, grabbing Kai by the shoulders and shaking him. “Kai, this is a really bad time for jokes, but you better be joking, because so help me if you don’t actually know what you’re doing when you suggested this plan in the first place and we only went with it because there’s so little options even Zane couldn’t compute one that doesn’t end in HORRIBLE DISASTER—”
“I’m sure Kai know what he’s doing,” Zane pipes up, though there’s almost a pleasing look in his eyes as he turns to Kai. “That is correct, no?”
Kai shrugs. “About 25% of that sentence was right.”
“The… ‘correct’, yes?”
“Try the ‘no’.”
That was evidently the wrong thing to say, as all three of his teammates now look like they want to strangle him.
Their faults for trusting him. Yes, sometimes he has thought-out plans— and sometimes he does not.
“So you’re telling us—” Jay starts, and oh boy Kai already knows this is going to end screechy, “—that you suggested this plan. Knowing you don’t know what your doing. Making it up as we go. For a situation where we really ducking need a plan or we’re all gonna DIE, BECAUSE WE’RE ABOUT TO BUNGIE-JUMP INTO THE PIT THE GREAT DEVOURER ONCE EMERGED FROM TO TRY TO FIND A REMAINING SCALE TO LIFT AN ANCIENT CURSE AND HOPING WE DON’T GET EATEN BY AN EVEN BIGGER SNAKE IN THE DARKNESS—”
Okay, getting too screechy now. Kai gives him a light nudge. “Just trust me.”
Jay goes flailing down the pit with a shriek. Cole turns to look at Kai. “You do remember we’re all connected to the same rope, right?”
Kai blanks. “Uhhh—”
And that’s all the warning he has before the slack stops being slack and yanks him into the pit after Jay.
