sometimes I wonder if I should tell my friends that I have a ‘blog’ about legoes
but then I remember that the average person would never understand the trauma of color coded ninjas
tell me im wrong.
I'm still continuing on this.
lloyd is the epitome of that one quote
“he didn’t need to be stronger, he needed to be safe,”
literally all the ninja are
just slap them on a poster with that quote and boom therapists come rushing
AND I AGREE?? WE HAVE THE SAME THOUGHT PROCESS I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH MITZLE
and again, adding to all of this, it’s also sometimes easy to forget that ninjago is a kids show- which is exactly what angers me more. Kids should be shown romantic relationships are important; there is nothing wrong with that. However hundreds of kids could relate to a sibling relationship, and could maybe even learn from Kai and Nya, and get closer to their own siblings! When I was younger I looked up to Kai, because he was an older sibling and I could relate to that. Other kids could do the exact same!
The writers have indeed diminished the value of Kai and Nya’s relationship, overlooking it and portraying to so many kids that romance reigns over family every time. I just wish they would change, because Kai and Nya are siblings and downgrading the important value of sibling relationships seems to be the writers ultimate goal. And honestly? This really needs to stop.
Respectfully, some of you in the ninjago fandom REALLY need to get this in your ears:
the amount of grief jay felt about nya’s death IS NOT LARGER THAN THE AMOUNT OF GRIEF KAI FELT.
familial love and romantic love are two different things. and yes, depending on circumstances and the people themselves, one can be stronger than the other.
BUT NOT IN NYA’S CASE. KAI AND JAY LOVE NYA EQUALLY. JAY DID NOT MISS NYA MORE THAN KAI. KAI JUST HID HIS GRIEF, AND MAYBE IS COPING IN A DIFFERENT WAY. KAI AND JAY ARE DIFFERENT PEOPLE. BUT THEY LOVE NYA EQUALLY.
so stop saying jay was more upset over nya’s death when kai literally held her when she was a child and raised her and was there for nya her entire life. nya missed them both, and they both missed her. thats it.
ive said this so many times but one of my favorite parts about kai is despite his trauma, when he gives, it doesnt come with strings. hes not expecting anything from anyone- when he gives, he does so without ulterior motives. i think its so important to realize that kai understands the value of love and decides to share his love, share what he holds in his heart (that fact that he chooses to hold love in his heart despite everything is beautiful itself), with the world, despite the world not returning it to him.
he loved his parents yet again so effortlessly, and he has always loved his family, nya, lloyd, jay, cole, zane, pixal, wu profusely.
Idk about you guys but in my opinion, as much as i love lloyd, we should give Kai and Nya an entire season so we can see how they really grew up without ray and maya and see them confront their childhood trauma and insecurities
And in the process come out bigger and better and with much more of a bigger bond than before and we can finally see more found family with them and in the upcoming seasons they always have eachothers back whether the other know it or not
Idk just my opinion
safe on my shoulders
-kai sleeps like a cat
-jay loves eating chobani yogurt (incase you don’t know, it’s a brand of yogurt that has one little thingy full of yogurt and the other thingy u can flip over and add cookie dough or chocolate chips or whatever)
- nya and kai are those crazy madmen racing on the street ways that all the moms shake their heads at
- nya cannot parallel park but she can tokyo drift
- one day lloyd hit his head on the table so kai hit the table back.
- cole can digest anything ( poisoning him to death? lol nice try he loves to nom poison)
-kai bought lloyd most of his game/comic collection
- nya has a bellybutton piercing
part one

Kai: Here ya go, kiddo [gives a bag of cookies to a kid dressed as Zane]
Kai: For you two [hands two full size candy bars to two little girls dressed as Samurai X]
Kai: Here you go, take these little guy [gives six mini bags of Skittles and a full size candy bar to a kid dressed as Lloyd]
Kai: Here kid. This is from my friend Zane [gives an apple to a kid dressed as Jay]
Kai: And for this awesome little dude... Bam! [Gives a whole unopened bag of candy to a kid dressed in a Fire Ninja costume]
Nya: KAI! STOP DOING THAT!
Do you think the sibling banter between the Smith siblings goes over the head of thecrest of the ninjas from time to time since esentially they are only children, and don't always get it?
certainly does my dearest anon
honestly I feel like half of the smith sibling banter is things the others have absolutely no context of and it’s funnier if the others deliberately don’t want to have any context because then you’d be a part of the battlefield and oh boy
when the smith siblings argue it turns into a banter field. get it bc it’s a battlefield now everyone laugh I’m so funny and btw of course the arguments have their limitations, and don’t last more than three minutes
but also I do personally feel like Lloyd doesn’t argue like he’s just not that kind of person, he’d talk things through and whatver
and it’s also funny to imagine the three at literally any store and there you see a short hedgehog aka kai + the 6 ft ocean gal aka nya both starting world war three and then ur average window cleaner aka lloyd dead on the ground waiting to be buried 6ft under (cause of death: secondhand embarrassment)
