Its so funny that Arin and Sora have shown to have significantly better emotional intelligence than any of the ninja from all of the old seasons combined. "You should be taking care of your mental health" and "yeah saving the world is upsetting! no wonder you're having stress dreams" oh my precious children. You are surrounded by a teen dad with massive self-worth issues, the only one of two people who remembers the genie incident and also turned into the sea once, guy who's died like 3+ times and committed genocide under mind control, and a child soldier who's been living the hard knock life since age 2.
I hope to god you two are prepared to witness the most mentally unwell behavior you've seen in your entire teenage lives. You think you've already seen how bad it can get now? Fools. Just wait until you get a mission involving the Departed Realm

I've been rewatching Skybound recently, and I've found myself thinking that it would've been absolutely incredible for Jay's story if everyone somehow remembered what happened. (with Nya still being alive, of course). Not only could Jay get help for the insane amount of trauma he experienced, but the ninja team, who likely don't think of him as the "leader" type, would then see differently.
Jay really stood up as a leader in this season. Although he made mistakes in the first half, after he escaped Misfortune's Keep he really took charge and showed how great a leader he could be. He proved that he wasn't just someone who could use lightning and say a funny joke. He could be someone people listen to, look up to, and obey orders from. Someone that people trust to lead them.
Not only did Jay make a plan to keep Nya away from Nadakhan as long as possible, but when she was taken he continued on. Jay also, after Ed talked to him, pick himself up after being the only ninja left standing, created a new team, and made a plan, basically all by himself. He led them despite how he has never led a team before, and led them well. He even made the call to risk his own freedom and go into the Djinn blade, saving the members of the team who were trapped.
Jay is so often, especially now with the newer seasons, seen as just the comedy guy, the funny side character, when in reality, when push comes to shove, he can also be an incredible leader, and it would've been amazing if the rest of the team saw him as such!
Prime Empire showed a little bit of his leadership skills too, but not in the same way. I want to see Jay make plans again, make tough calls, and lead others all by himself.
He can do it, he's proven it, but the others don't know it. If only they did. Maybe then Jay could have another chance at being a leader.

Lloyd Oni headcannon
I have a headcanon about how Arin and Sora find out about Oni Lloyd.
Basically, after the merge when Lloyd is left all alone not knowing if his family and friends are alive, he starts being unable to control his Oni side, which leads to.... slight destruction around the monastery, so he tries to contain it to a single room if he can ( Lloyd is usually able to tell when it's about to happen) and he finds no point in cleaning this room up. But once he starts finding people it gets less frequent it still happens but he is able to hide it, they are just not allowed in this room. Even the OG ninja don't know about this they just let Lloyd be. After awhile Arin and Sora's curiosity gets the best of them and they sneak into the room and it's honestly hard to call this room at all there's claw marks everywhere, scorch marks and more. Arin and Sora have no clue what's going on so they go ask the ninja who also doesn't know what's going on and decides to check the room out with Arin and Sora ( wyldfire is there too don't worry). Lloyd catches them all snooping around the room and they question it which forces Lloyd to reveal that he unlocked his Oni form a while back and had trouble controlling it ( he also explains the Oni and dragon stuff to Arin, Sora and wyldfire) and yeah there a "little" shocked but are cool with it.
it's pretty bad ik

The original concept for the Lego Ninjago movie is such a great idea truly a spark of creativity, but unfortunately it was scrapped. And was probably reused in season seven as it also has time as it's theme.
If you don't know what im talking about, the original concept for the Lego Ninjago movie was to have the main six ninja to travel back in time to were a war is going on. And they want to prevent Lord Garmadon being bitten by a large snake, and becoming evil. Which I'm only assuming is maybe this movie's version of the Serpentine War, that involves the Great Devourer, or a creature similar to them, is the war that goes on during the movie.
I'm probably wrong about somethings or just making something up but still. The ninja traveling back into time to 'save' Garmadon is actually cool. And a topic I wish they kept, or had a similar story to it.
If this concept did make it was the actual movie I bet much more people would have enjoyed it. And would have been seen as a bigger achievement for Ninjago instead of a distant memory within the community/Fandom.
Scenes from the concept:

Now may be wrong about somethings, as I did write this at 12am.. on the 29th, of February..

Little silly headcanon🥰
Wyldfyre often calls Kai "old man" when he's really only like 26😂 (sometimes everyone else calls him it too just to piss him off :3)
(in Dragons Rising that's how old I'm guessing they are, don't come for me for it😢)

I like Kai as a character but dang do fans on other platforms not get him as a character.
If I hear one more ‘Kai should’ve been the green ninja’ or ‘remember when Kai was the main character’ I will go feral and start biting.

Okay if I hadn’t learned that the Ninja were teenagers from the fandom before I started rewatching the series, I’d have been really surprised when Kai says “Jay, we’re still teenagers”
So let’s turn that into a thing:
Tournament of elements au where all the other elemental masters are full on adults, like 25 and older adults (except for Skylar) and they assume that the ninja are also adults because of all the crazy shit they’ve done and the fact that they’re not in school like normal kids.
So it’s the alliance and some of the ninja are acting rlly childish and one of the masters comments on it like “stop acting like teenagers” or whatever and the ninja just ???
Because it genuinely doesn’t occur to them that maybe children shouldn’t be learning how to be ninja and fighting armies and fuckin teaching for a school (season 3 everybody), and it’s silent until Jay or Kai’s like we are teenagers???
Cue these functioning adults blue-screening at the fact that not only have they been fighting children, but that the children have been winning.
The chaos when Skylar mentions that she’s also a teenager

Jay’s been through it
CW: Sexual assault Implications brief discussion of sexual predators + lotta swearing
(Please let me know if I missed any content warnings and Check if you are ok to hear this theory before reading. This type content has potential to help or hurt you depending on who you are as is the nature of problematic themes. Safety over curiosity.)
This is cannon compliment. Uhh kids show?! Yeah I know shouldn’t really have these themes but they’re there hear me out. Spoilers for season 6/8 I guess.
I’m bothered by this scene and how It connect to certain events so I’ll cautiously share
Sons of Garmadon Episode 7:
Here is the clip
Kelo asks “Where’s the green Ninja”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
WHAT THE FUCK! Dude the double take I had when first watching this.
So he looked at Kelo’s… lower half and basically said ‘Cole shut up that man’s crotch is too close’. And not in Jay joking tone, he’s like dead serious and stressed. (The scene just cuts away after)
Jay you ok? Why is it implied some guy might have tried something?! Why else would he say that?! Who the FUCK touched my boi? What even is this scene?!
The fact it’s Jay that said it out of everyone is bad because it’s been implied to him before.
So let’s talk about the darkest Ninjago theory that’s been quietly circulating for a while in fan content. For simplicity I’ll call it captains quarters theory, If you’re unfamiliar I’ll explain.
Basically some speculation happened because of a certain villain that displayed subtle ongoing predatory behavior. And a part when Jay was his prisoner that caused people to worry what happened before the scene started.
As some of you have caught on It’s the scene where Cole rescues Jay from Misfortunes Keep.
He didn’t find Jay in his cell where he should have.
Cole found him beaten as ninjago has ever depicted except when literally dying.
Alone
no explanation given.
In the corner of Captains Quarters.
Nadakhan’s room.
Tumblr media
Dude :(
And his concern afterwards.
Tumblr media
And thinking he didn’t deserve saving.
“Thank you for trying to save me,-
Tumblr media
It’s Just a lot.
Doing awful things to make Jay wish it all away is terrifyingly in Nadakhan’s character. Not just the sadistic torture part.
Nadakhan has many behaviors similar to a sexual predator. I’ll go over it briefly but see my last post for a detailed analysis.
He Seeks out vulnerable people for victims. The Ninja are teens and he waits till or makes them emotionally vulnerable. The way he talks about gifting his wishes and giving his victims anything they desire can be read as grooming behavior. His secrecy in getting all the ninja alone and doesn’t even talk to his crew about his plans. Manipulative and Controlling obviously.
And the most glaring issues he’s WAY tooo fucking touchy all the time. Like watch his body language during Skybound and see how uncomfortable it is
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Too slow junkyard boy”
Not to mention how explicitly he doesn’t care about consent….
Tumblr media
And “If you don’t come willingly Nya, I will take you regardless” followed by a forced marriage.
Side note he doesn’t refers to Jay with his name and the things he calls him…uggh “What lies is our little canary whistling now, hmm?”
So… It’s cannon compliant that something was attempted or happened to Jay. Bruh wtf.
Well if you feel like you resonate with this or it may help there a few great fanworks that explore this I can recommend if interested. Mmm comfort angst.
(Note don’t bother anyone for enjoying Nadakhan as a character. It’s fiction and it hurts no one)
