*cracks knuckles* well if I'm gonna work on my OCs and now that someone's reminded me how actually tragic Echo is

Let's talk about Jasmine and her relationship with Echo

I feel like they would get really close if they ever met. I think Julien would tell Echo about her in a way he wouldn't tell Zane because he was scared Zane would tell others someday. Echo won't ever leave the lighthouse, so he can't tell anyone. He would know about Julien's other child, but he would figure it's Zane, the one he replaced. When they meet, once they figured out they were related, I think Echo would realize and want to tell Jasmine what he knows. Julien wanted to know her but couldn't. He left her because it's what was best for her. I think Echo would want to imagine Julien left him for those kinds of reasons too.

I think they would bond over being abandoned by Julien. Jasmine before she was born, Echo long after. I think they'd each envy each other, in a way. They both resent him (even if they won't admit it), but Jasmine resents him never being there. Echo resents him being there so much, only to leave him. Echo would fill in the gaps for Jasmine on who he was, while Echo is more eager to hear about the life Jasmine lived in the wide world, especially on her own.

I think they'd have a super close bond, I think they should visit Jasmine's home and have a snowball fight, I think she should take him to Borg Industries and watch Echo go starry eyed at all the cool technology, I think Jasmine would help replace his rusted gears and wires with ones that won't deteriorate as easily, i think she'd teach him how to garden and befriend animals and i think echo would be so thrilled to get away from the sea

I think if Echo and Jasmine ever got to meet, they'd find a comfort in each other and a confidant about some of their issues that no one else could provide

#dr. julien stop replacing your children after losing one challenge (impossible) #i do like him i accept that characters can do fucked up things and i can still like them but damn bro #he really left his youngest kid to fucking rot in a prison while he ran off with the oldest #if i was echo i would also have a (scrapped) villain arc #anyways jasmines relationship with either of her brothers makes me a little feral but echo especially #i currently don't plan for her to know like. how he became part of the ninja replacement team #so she can't rescue him after skybound even if she wants to #but i do want them to meet. i need echo to be freed and have a family man #they both understand loving but resenting julien #also echo being so fascinated by the outside world is so interesting to me #he's only known the world on that tiny island so jasmine would take him anywhere he wanted #the oldest and youngest sibling should have the tightest bond #they would also both be close with zane too but he also has a much more. rosy view of julien #so there are certain things they wouldn't want to tell him bc bro i do kinda wish i was you #also yes this is against canon. i don't care. julien was part of the previous generation of ems and zane is about the same age as the other #my fanon my rules /lh #anyways #jasmine bucket #echo julien #ninjago #lego ninjago #ninjago ocs
