Symbiosis

Where you learn to share a body with Morro after he refuses to leave to the departed realm.

Absolutely everyone was confused, stunned, and worried at once.

“Okay, so like, how is this supposed to work?” Kai asked.

“What do you mean he’s not possessing you?” Jay demanded for clarification on what exactly what was happening to your body.

“It’s like...” you trailed off in thought. “He’s mostly living in my head, but he can just...come out when he wants to? And we can both use each our powers, even at once somehow?”

That made a little more sense. “So...now what?” Cole asked.

“Please treat me like normal?” You begged, “he’s really dormant anyway; I don’t want to be treated any differently for having him in me-”

“That’s what she said.” Kai snickered, and Cole smacked him on the head.

This made you laugh, and some of the others joined in.

By the end of the week, Morro was still sleeping away in your head, and things were mostly back to normal. The only difference between before and after was that you had to perform extra wind training, and...Lloyd.

“Hey, buddy, what’s up?” You were quite tall, and could ruffle his hair. He would avoid you sometimes, and since usually the two of you were pretty close, this hurt to see.

“Oh, uh, I was just about to head to the store, Cole wanted me to stock back up on his cake so-”

“Oh, I can come with you!” You offered. He refused, making you frown. “...Lloyd?” Your voice was soft, sounding like you would cry if anything made noise or moved too fast. “Why don’t you like me anymore? Why do you avoid me?”

“What? No!” He reached out to hold you, “of course I still like you, you’re my best friend! It’s just...” he sighs, scratching his head as he tried to think of what to say. “Morro’s a part of you now. I’m sure he hates my guts, and once he leaves his dormant state, he’s not going to be a pleasant person to be around. He’s probably going to change you and make you turn on me, so I figured I’d get it over with.”

You sighed and hugged him back, “what makes you think he’ll change me? He’s in my body, he better respect it!” You say, trying to cheer him up. “He’s just like an extra opinion when it comes to hard decision making, and extra protection and power when it comes to fights. Besides, when it’s him that’s talking, you’ll know ‘cuz my eyes and hair go green.”

“Still, it’s gonna be a little weird to have him around in a domestic setting, we don’t have any opponents to fight at the moment.” Lloyd rubs the back of his neck with a sheepish grin.

“You forget!” You cackle childishly, “I’m still the youngest one here, I can keep him busy when he’s using my body!”

You were his friend back when he went to Darkly’s. You weren’t particularly dark or evil, but you had a bad habit of being, well, you. If it weren’t for you being swallowed whole by the Grundle before it was hit with Tomorrow Tea, you’d still be about 12. He chuckled, “you do that.”

When Morro first woke up, you collapsed due to being unstable still, and trying to figure out how the two of you worked together. He took over your body in a fit of rage, but after some explanation, he was calm and actually feeling a bit awkward.

“This body is weird. Sure it’s the same height as my old one, but still, this one out of everything else?” He complained.

“Hey!” Lloyd snapped, “don’t say that when you’re in my friend’s body!”

The teasing was instant. “So, Green Ninja, how does it feel to have your old friend possessed by me?”

Sure, Morro redeemed himself a little by feeling regretful of what he did and letting go of his want to be the Green Ninja, but his taunting still stayed with him. So Lloyd chose to ignore it. “Let me know when you’re done with their body, they owe me a round of video games later.”

Morro quickly realized he didn’t have a lot of power over them anymore, and just stuck to light teasing, or avoiding the other ninja. He got along well with you though, but it annoyed him to no end that he couldn’t have you physically in front of him to talk with.

“Come on, Morro! Don’t be shy, let your soft side show! Cook them breakfast, I’ve seen you watch Zane cook from the dinner table!” You urged him from inside your head.

He sighed, you were right. He couldn’t avoid them forever, and even Wu was starting to try and force him to socialize with the other ninja. You said something about how ‘teamwork makes the dream work’, whatever that meant.

So he reluctantly agreed and set out for the kitchen. You helped him along by telling him how much of each ingredient he needed, and honestly? It was very helpful to have what was essentially a second pair of eyes. “Can you get the griddle for me?” The two of you were silent and he sighed, “right.” He went and got it himself, feeling frustrated. Believe it or not, he actually started to enjoy you, and really wanted nothing more than to hug you tightly just for a few minutes.

“Aw, thanks Airhead!” You spoke from inside your head.

It would also be nice because then his thoughts would all be private again. “I told you not to call me that!”

“You like it, though!”

Once again, privacy in thought.

Soon the waffles were all done, and the hash browns were cooked, and the eggs were scrambled. He shredded an entire brick of cheese while using his wind power to pour orange juice and lazily throw some bacon in the oven; jeez, he was so tired. How the hell did Zane have the energy to make all this at 6 in the morning? Next time he would just make waffles and anyone who dared complain would simply never eat food he made ever again. He could even sense that you were passed out in his head, and he wished that were him so badly.

By the time he actually finished, everyone else had come trickling in one by one and awed at the platters of food in the dining room for them all to take from and fill their plates.

“Damn, (Y/N), you made all this? You’re always the last one up!” Cole laughs, slinging an arm around his shoulders.

“It’s me.” Morro tried not to sound cold, but he was ready to sleep for another couple of hours.

“Jeez dude, you sound awful. I’ll save some for you, if you want?” Cole offered, and Morro nodded.

“I think (Y/N) would like that, please save some for them. I’m going to bed now.” He made his way to your room and looked in the mirror briefly. It was funny how no matter who was in charge, it was always him that showed up in it. It was just another way of the world telling him that you and him were, quite literally, made to be together.

He landed in bed with a grunt, then wrapped himself in your soft blankets. He would have a long way to go to completely gain the ninja’s trust again, but if it would make you happy, then he would be happy too. Besides, he could use a couple friends.

Hey guys!

Me: …well, I discovered why Jay acts up so much and why she’s so much taller than me…

Laurel: oh, why’s that?

Me: and also that Laurel’s been lying for about two years.

Laurel: whaddya mean, friendo? I’ve always been me, happy, caring Laurel!

Me: then explain these two words: severe depression.

Laurel: I - uh - ok, you got me.

Me: and not only that, how about these three words: extremely severe anxiety.

Laurel: well, that would explain the -

Jay: WHAT ARE YOU DOING TELLING THE WORLD EVERYONE’S GONNA KNOW AND THEY’RE GONNA JUDGE AND THERE’S NO TIME FOR RELAXING CUZ THE MUSICAL JUST FINISHED AND NOW WE’RE GONNA FIND OUT WHAT EVERYONE THINKS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH

Laurel: - that.

Me: yup, good ol’ Jay, making a reappearance. So what do we do?

Intrusive thoughts: …cut yourself again?

Me: no. already done that one once, and I for one don’t wanna do it again.

Carey: why is SHE back again?! intrusive thoughts makes it SO hard to work on things!

Me: AAAHHH ROYALTY IN THE ROOM I mean - hey, Carey! what brings you to the online thread thingy?

Carey: you chose to write! why would I not be here?

Intrusive thoughts: because… we only write to relieve all the worthlessness inside our lonely, lonely soul?

Carey: and there she goes again. well, if you choose to be this way, Intrusive thoughts, I’m leaving. Goodbye!

Me: and there goes all my creativity, back to wherever it is you guys go.

Logan: can I just say, Intrusive thoughts is actually the thoughts Em creates all on her own. Thus, Carey, she was brought into existence by you.

Me: wh-what? How does that make logical sense?

Logan: would I be saying it if it was not logical?

Me: you have a point. So wait, if Intrusive thoughts actually makes me wanna do things like that, then…

Laurel: OH NO SHIRLEEN!

Jay: but shirleen is our motivation, and if our motivation is kind of brainwashed in a way, we’ll never get anything done! OUR BLOGS AND GRADES AND EVERYTHING WILL DIE! W E W I L L N E V E R B E A N Y T H I N G O F W O R T H I N L I F E A N D E N D U P L I V I N G O N T H E S T R E E T S A S A H O M E L E S S B A G L A D Y

Me: oh goodness, but I need Shirleen! is there any way to get her back?

Logan: I can only think of one option, and that is to expel Intrusive thoughts entirely. But to destroy one of Carey’s creations, we need to get her permission first. Which should not be too hard, as she seems to hate her.

Me: but where does she go when she’s not here?

Logan: we all go to differing places, but Carey spends most of her time in the idea dump.

Me: …?

Logan: The idea dump is where the discarded or ignored ideas go. She always attempts to salvage some of these ideas and create more to add on to them.

Me: so… we just… is there some way to get there?

Logan: For you, no. We need to upgrade in that area to be able to go. I suggest I go.

Me: but why you?

Logan: I am the best choice. Laurel will get distracted gushing over all the ideas there, Irene will go into brainstorm mode with Carey, Jay will get too scared, and Morgan has no patience.

Me: What about intrusive thoughts? she always snaps me out of a daydream!

Logan: of course! There is no better person. Or figment. Intrusive thoughts!

Intrusive thoughts: Yes?

Me: We need you to go get Carey from the idea dump. Can you do it?

Intrusive thoughts: Will the oceans eventually boil and a nuclear war happen?

Me: Yeah, probably. Ok, cool! And quickly, please!

Intrusive thoughts: I will be as quick as the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs!

Me: Yup, ok! Now where is that stuffed narwhal of mine? I need to hug him.

Laurel: He’s in your bed, on top of the pillow we made for him!

Me: Thanks!

Carey: Who sent Intrusive thoughts to get me? I was exploring our six-year-old ideas!

Me: That is… probably the darkest part of the idea dump.

Laurel: Yup, matches my mood.

Me: What?

Laurel: What? *giggles nervously* Why you all looking at me?

Me: Let’s get to the point. We’re trying to get rid of Intrusive thoughts, but we need your help.

Carey: How so? Do I need to STAB HER THROUGH THE BRAIN WITH MINE SWORD?!

Me: No, we need your permission to destroy her!

Carey: No, you don’t. You only need my permission to destroy things that I… oh no. She’s not, is she?

Me: Actually she is. Intrusive thoughts is the embodiment of darker thoughts and ideas I came up with but pushed to the back of my mind, aparrently.

Carey: WHO TOLD YOU THAT NONSENSE?!

Me: Logan did.

Carey: …Oh. That makes sense. Unfortunately, I need some time for this. Equally unfortunately, this means we have to leave on a cliffhanger.
