Reblog if you 100% okay with a transgender person correcting you if you accidentally misgender them or use their dead name.

please do

OOOOH OR THEY CAN JUST POSSESS ELECTRICAL DEVICES (LIKE A COMPUTER OR A GAME BOI) AND JUST CONTROL THEM. OR SOME ONE USING ELECTRO MAGIMSTISM TO LIKE FLYING OR MAKE THINGS FLOAT!!!

yo wait fellow jay kinnie?? not us twinning rn with the lightning headers on our profiles

yeah cause lightning is awesome!!!!!!!

I agree with you 100%, the designer/designers did an amazing job. I really like Farewell the Sea, I think it really shows grief can affect people. And how the monastery looks, helps show that. The spaces most used and would be lived in are a mess, not it a people are enjoying them selfs mess and living mess, but in a depressive mess, like they don't have the energy to pick up and the trash has just piled up

fuck it im gonna do it.

Let's discuss the subtleties in the shots of the monastery in Farewell the Sea, because I think it's fascinating how much detail was put into shots we only see for a few seconds at maximum for the sake of showing how much Nya merging with the sea affected everyone.

So the first shot of the monastery we get (that isn't a shot of the entire thing) is the courtyard. There are leaves scattered on the ground, a leaf blowing by in the foreground, and a broom against the dragon statue.

The second shot we get is of this hallway, where the ninja hang pictures of their loved ones. The reason this one's interesting to me is because it feels like nobody's touched Jay and Nya's picture; everything else hanging on the walls is straight and even. The picture of Jay and Nya is crooked and dusty.

The third shot we get is of the kitchen. It's an absolute mess. It looks like nobody's bothered cleaning up in months. Dirty(?) dishes are just stacked everywhere, there are (presumably) empty soda cans all over the place, there's a stack of empty pizza boxes being used for extra garbage storage, it's just a mess.

The fourth shot before we get to the hangar bay is this one of the recreation room. Cole's soda guzzler is on the sofa, there's more garbage just laying around (including under the sofa), there's a game controller on the edge of the sofa, and it looks like nobody's really bothered doing anything seriously there for a while. Let's compare this to shots of the monastery we get in season 11.

When the rec room is being used regularly, yes, it's a total mess, but it feels lived in; additionally, the ninja don't look like they just throw the garbage wherever. Anything that seems to be empty is behind them and out of the way, compared to in Farewell the Sea where it feels like the garbage gets thrown around haphazardly. In addition to this, look at how many pizza boxes there are in the screenshot from Wasted True Potential, then look at the screenshot from Farewell the Sea. If we take the Farewell the Sea screenshot as meant to be implicative of Cole being the most active in the rec room, the team breaking up has either resulted in less pizzas being ordered or Cole's eating disorder from season 8 relapsed (link is an explanation in case it's needed).

Onto this hallway. I couldn't get a good screenshot of the hallway from the same angle, but it is the same hallway. It's not much different when it's being lived in, but how they show it in Farewell the Sea makes it feel empty, especially the specific zoomed out shot I used for this post. Like the rec room, this hallway doesn't feel lived in in Farewell the Sea.

I'm not sure what to say about this, except that in A Rocky Start (the episode I got this screenshot from), the courtyard is incredibly clean because they use it to train and practice fighting. There aren't any leaves, no brooms, it feels lived in because it's clean.

Finally, the kitchen. The dirty bowls aren't stacked on top of each other, the floor is clean, the counters aren't covered in trash, it just feels clean, maybe like they had dinner sometime before Aspheera attacked the monastery, which makes it feel lived in.

Whoever did the design for the monastery in Farewell the Sea did so well making things feel like they haven't been lived in for months. You can feel the effect that Nya merging with the sea has had in 20 seconds. It's honestly heartbreaking.

there is no nuance did you or did you not use your child sewing abilities to cut open your stuffed animals

Why did I have to vote on MY OWN poll, to see the score!!!!!!!

Longest Ninjago Fic List

Soooooooo, I made a google doc for the list ( it makes updating easier on me) Skybound is the only season on there right now. But I'm going to be adding more soon. Here is the link:

Longest Ninjago Fic List

Ok now for my problem, I don't know what order of seasons I should do. So decide to just put a poll up here and you guys decide

Hearing that Sunni is the middle child of seven siblings made me imagine that they are all color coded like a rainbow with the oldest as red, the youngest as purple and Sunni as yellow since they all have a connection to light

That’s pretty darn close to the reality! XD

I haven’t actually drawn out the siblings yet (as they’re sparsely relevant and hardly ever all at the same time) mmmbut:

Wynter is Sunni’s oldest sibling and her big brother, currently 19. He drives Sunni and her older sisters to school on his way to work <3

Autumn and Summer are the older set of twin sisters, currently 17 (and in Zane, Cole, and Meghan’s class). They have the opposite personalities of what you’d expect—Summer is bookish, likes warm sweaters, and is extremely shy; Autumn is loud and outgoing, sporty, and exceedingly stubborn.

Then there’s Sunni, currently 15!

Then there’s her younger set of twin sisters, Wendy and Rainey. Unlike the other twins, who are stark opposites, these two are like clones—finishing each other’s sentences, dressing the same, doing the same activities, etc. they’d look alike if it wasn’t for Wendy’s attempt at a dye job. Currently 13, same age as Miranda.

And finally, there’s her youngest sibling and little brother, Claude. Currently 10, definitely the baby of the family but pretty quiet and reserved otherwise. Sunni and her brothers tend to get outmatched by the Twin Brigade when it comes to making family decisions snksnksnk

And yes, there’s a naming theme here lol

Almost all of them grow attached to Jay for various reasons—only Wynter and Autumn are a little skeptical of him snksnk

Based on true events mixed with my head-cannons

---------------------------------------------------------

(Jay looking at head-cannons about star-fair online.)

Jay: what's ADHD? (looks it up)

Jay: wow this sounds......alot like......me. MOM!!!!!!!!!! DO I HAVE ADHD!!!!!!!!!!

Edna (in another room): YEAH!!!

Jay: OK THANKS!!!

-----------------------------------------------------------

Cole: Dude you have anxiety!

Jay: What no I don't

Cole: Jay. You. Have. Anxiety!

Jay: No I don't, I will bet you 10 bucks that if I asked my parents they won't say I have anxiety

Cole: make it 20, if its general anxiety!

Jay: done

(the next day)

Jay: here's your 20 bucks

Cole: I told you

-------------------------------------------------------------

(Jay going on a rant about some fandom he is in, and is not showing a signs of stoping while bouncing his arms)

Kai: This is one of the reasons we think you're autistic dude

Jay: for the last time Kai, I'm not autistic. the doctors already checked. Tell him mom!

Edna: while they said you are on the spectrum, but I don't think you're autistic!

Kai (while choking form shock): What?

Jay (start to have existential crisis): What?

Edna: Yeah they told us that after they diagnosed you with ADHD and anxiety when you were around nine

Jay (fully having existential crisis) mom you can't be on the spectrum and not be autistic

Edna: Oh

---------------------------------------------------------------

hey Hat, I had a quick question. jay's lighting scars are connected to his injuries in the erased timeline and jay feels the branding on his arm (I think), is Nadakhan's branding still visible in someway? Like can you see it in the negative space around the scars, or something like that? Or is it just like a phantom feeling that's there?

hiii!!!

yeah so basically since in the erased timeline his powers attacked the wound there, it didn't quite map out the letters, but reached for it and surrounded them (idk if this makes sense akffsg im so sorry) so there's the lightning scars like kinda surrounding jay's arm and reaching for something, but in the new timeline nothing's left there

but since Jay knows and will always remember the wound, almost how it exactly looked, then it's not that hard to imagine the brand there for him. (again, i have no idea if this makes sense and i am so sorry)

the phantom feeling is also clearly here for Jay. That's just something he'll have to put up with for maybe the rest of his days. depends on how i handle stuff.

thanks for the ask!! :D see you arounddd <3
