you're such a tease hm.
Not doing anything yet angel
Is your favorite color purple
yes lmao but red too my main acc tells it
I'm stealing this. Thank you. These all shall be used in my rewrite.
OK SO APH/ZANE/AARON IS THE POLYCULE EVER AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND
I have a little MyStreet rewrite cooking in my head that’s got this pretty prominently so yeah! Anyways have some HCs!!!
Aaron
Acts like he’ll kill you, is actually a cinnamon roll
People thinks he’s smart, but it’s just because he’s really quiet
He’s actually really fucking dumb /affectionate
Has a very weezy laugh
He/she/they, though most people use he
(Considering having him FTM He/Him but I can’t decide)
Didn’t really know much about gender and sexuality and stuff instill his sister came out as lesbian and she gave him a crash course
Used to struggle with internalized homophobia thanks to her dad being an ass but is now very comfortable in his own skin
Love language is physical touch and is chronically touch deprived, especially due to their years of isolation (just like me fr)
Intimidating when you first meet him, but I can guarantee you he’s secretly shitting his pants out of fear
A.K.A Social Anxiety Prime
RBF
Is such a worry wart, especially towards Zane and Aphmau
Used to have consistent nightmares, but ever since sharing a bed with Zane and Aphmau, they’ve pretty much stopped
On top of physical touch, he likes to do small acts of service
If either of his partners have a nightmare, she holds them through it and wakes up early the next day so that way they wake up to hot cocoa with cinnamon and a splash of vanilla extract
His favorite food is anything with Cinnamon!
Aphmau
Acts like a cinnamon roll, will actually kill you
“Excuse me they asked for no pickles”
A plus sized queen!
She/Her but prefers masculine descriptors i.e. sir, Mr, boyfriend (looks pointedly at her being called the lord of phoenix drop rather than the lady)
Is super sweet and helpful unless you tick her off or mess with friends, at that point, may God bless your soul
Love language is acts of service and gift giving!!
This is super evident in MCD and it peaks through in Mystreet as well! So that definitely stays
Has a tendency to give too much and burn herself out
Anytime she finds a cool rock she has to keep it
Her giving you a rock is a big deal! It means she cares a lot, enough to give it away
Due to growing up poor she has a tendency to stock up on non perishable food and stress if they don’t have enough
Definitely had a crush on Katelyn when they were younger, it passed with time though
Is really smart common sense wise, really into logic puzzles and stuff
She knows everything. Your secret? I think you mean our secret.
Less so with book smarts but give her time and let her put what she needs to know in song form and she’s got it
ADHD
How does she learn these secrets? Well that’s between her and God
Her favorite food is Mangos and Mochi anything!
And last but certainly not least, Zane!
Looks like he’ll kill you, and depending on the day, he’ll either kill you or actually be a cinnamon roll
Was raised with ye old fashioned toxic masculinity drilled into his head by Garte leaving him really insecure about his gender and gender expression
Around college, he started coming more into his own and wearing makeup out and about (all of this up to now is p much cannon btw)
The divergence come when he also starts experimenting in other ways to like sometimes wearing skirts and the occasional dress
It still takes years for them to stop bringing an extra pair of more masculine clothes with him in case he gets too stressed or sees someone in public
They/He but doesn’t mind the occasional she
Asexual
While he really loves the colors pastel pink and purple, he still mainly wears black with those as accents
Has a backpack/bag they take EVERYWHERE
Going out? Take the bag. Going on a trip? Take the bag. Leaving the room? Take the bag.
Mans could survive the apocalypse with all the stuff he keeps in there. I’m taking sewing thread and needles, bandaids, Neosporin, fidget, toys, stuff, to doodle with, a book for when he gets bored, headphones, etc.
Has Autism
MLP Special Interest
Has emotional support Fluttershy and Twilight Sparkle figurines in their bag (they remind him of Aaron and Aphmau respectively)
Mainly does vocal Stims but is not immune to hand flap propaganda
Sensory adverse (that’s what the point of the mask usually is)
Loves his mom very much, even if she can be a bit loud
Daddy issues, him and Aaron bond over this
His love language is quality time and gift giving (they regularly steal one of their father’s credit cards) (Garte has barely noticed)
Is the type to quietly sit beside or across from one of his partners when their stressed, maybe give them one of his hands and be a quiet comfort as he scrolls on the Internet, showing them cat videos/my little pony art
That or be like “You’re sad” throw a change of clothes at them and say “Get up we’re going to Olive Garden, don’t worry I’m paying”
Notices when his friends/partners look at something too long and you can bet your bippy that you’ll be receiving that during your next birthday/Christmas or maybe just tomorrow if he can’t wait
Honestly very book smart, he just doesn’t mention it
Has a PHD, though no one but Aphmau knows of what, the whole friend group have a betting pool on what it is and who will find out first (Aphmau didn’t count, she knows everything)
Loves hyperpop
Favorite Food is the pink Monster Energy Drink, dw that that’s not actually food
Art WIP! Here are a few of the students from class E-1. There are many more I need to add. (ICU is not a student just fwi)
Hey guys! So for some reason, Tumblr won’t let me post my newest fanfic <_< so here’s a link! It would mean a lot if you guys would check it out. Thanks!
Summary: When Jay finds the remnant of Zane’s face, the single, chipped word Brother written just under the eye, he throws it so hard against the ground it splits in two.

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon) Part 97
(I suggest you check out parts 1-96 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
(With Deity)
Deity paced around her bedroom. It had been 2 days since Vinny went missing and safe to say everyone was worried out of their minds. Shancais’ reaction to coming back from patrol and finding out he was missing was as expected, he was worried and immediately offered to go back and see if the cameraman was in the kingdom.
Willows’ reaction however was more than she anticipated, “He’s what?!”. Those words rung in Deitys’ head, they were all worried. She hated this. She wanted him to be safe. Enji didn’t seem to know where Vinny was. Perhaps Rida did? It’s not like she could ask him, Rida despised her.
She let out an exasperated sigh and she fell to her knees and rested her head on the windowsill. She was tired. But she couldn’t sleep. Not now. Vinnys’ disappearance was all too similar to her husbands’ and it ached her heart.
Perhaps if she sent the ninja back to their city and have them check around there? There was a chance Vinny somehow could’ve accidentally found a way back to Ninjago. It was smart, she could be in contact with them and they could have regular updates with the travellers tea.
Deity was snapped out of her thoughts by a soft knock at her door, “Come in!” She called out tiredly as she stood up and dusted off her clothes. The door opened and her expression softened, Garmadon. She knew the pain of losing a lover like this and could feel the pain his soul bared.
“Is everything alright?” Deity spoke up softly as she rubbed her temples, staring out the window.
“Where could he have gone?” The oni asked, his voice quiet as he shut the door and walked over to her.
“I am…unsure” Deity confessed, “However, there is a chance that the way you all ended up here might’ve sent him back somehow” she added, trying to ease Garmadons’ worries.
“Where would he be? Back in Ninjago? Or could it have possibly sent him to another realm” Garmadon sighed, he was definitely overthinking this.
“Most likely Ninjago…” Deity spoke, “Also I’m able to send you all back there now…it would be better if you all look around your city while we search around here for clues”
“I suppose that would work best” The oni sighed, unable to hide the worry that tainted with his voice.
“We’ll find him…” She spoke, attempting to comfort him.
“I hope” Garmadon whispered, “Would it do well for us all to leave now?”
“If you wish to search longer, it would be more convenient to leave now” Deity answered with a soft smile.
“Very well…I’ll go see my brother” Garmadon spoke, as he gave her a soft nod before leaving. Deity watched him leave and let out a sigh, best she prepare the travellers tea.
Garmadon walked down the halls, expecting to find his brother in the library of the palace. The palace did have some peculiar scrolls. As the oni entered the library he found Wu seated, engrossed in a scroll. “Brother? Is everything alright?” Wu asked as he looked up.
“We can leave the kingdom…Deity said there’s a chance that the way we got here might’ve taken Vinny back to Ninjago” Garmadon explained. “Though we’ll remain in contact with them”
“I suppose it’s best we leave, I’ll go and tell the ninja” Wu answered as he put a scroll back before getting up. The oni nodded at his brother and watched him walk off. Garmadon walked a separate way, not to his room, but to Vinnys’ room. Maybe there was something he could find.
Garmadons’ hands landed on the doorknob, he had checked here before, countless of times, hoping there would be some hint as to where Vinny was. As the oni gently opened the door with a creak, he let out a shaky sigh. The room was dark as expected, the lights were always off.
The oni began looking around, there had to be something, anything! It was the same result as the other 10 visits over the past 2 days. Nothing. All of this was useless. Vinny just vanished into thin air!
Garmadon groaned in annoyance as he rubbed his temples, clenching his fists as he punched the wall, a purple flame forming around him. He let out a sigh as he control himself, anger wasn’t the best at the moment and destroying the palace wouldn’t help either.
He should’ve pressed on with Vinny, maybe, just maybe then would he have some hint as to where he went. But no…this is what he gets for respected peoples’ choices.
The oni rubbed his temples before sitting on the bed and resting his head in his hands. He was gonna find Vinny. He kept telling himself that. He didn’t know what he would do if something bad happened to Vinny. What if he was k-
Garmadon shook his head, he really shouldn’t be thinking about that. Vinny was alive and they were going to find him. He repeated that in his head as he fidgeted with his hands. He was snapped out of his thoughts by clattering from the bathroom.
The onis’ eyes widened as he quietly stood up and walked towards the bathroom, there was a chance it was Vinny. And a chance it being some random stranger. Garmadon hesitantly peeked in and saw a man going through the drawers. He recognised this man as the one the ninja had to fight in the catacombs.
The oni snarled as he slammed the door opened and grabbed the man by the collar, and pinning him to the wall. A wince of pain was heard from the man, he was clearly caught off guard. “A-asshole!” The man hissed out as he rubbed the back of his head.
“What did you do with him?” Garmadon growled, he was fully ready to gut the man right there and then.
“Do with who!?” The man hissed as he tried escaping Garmadons’ grasp.
“Don’t play dumb” The oni snarled, the man paused for a minute trying to think.
“Ohhhh!” The man eventually spoke up, “Your little boyfriend? I don’t have anything to do with him!” He laughed out.
Garmadon growled in annoyance, he was so close to digging his claws into this mans’ throat and tearing out his esophagus. However he didn’t have the chance as he heard someone behind him. He turned his head slightly and saw the prince.
Shancai was shocked when he saw this sight, Enji, his lov- I mean enemy was here and judging by the sight Garmadon was about to kill him. “What’re doing here?” The prince spoke as he walked over to the two, silently coercing the oni to release him.
“I left my chain here” Enji grumbled as he dusted himself off when he was released. “And I swear on my life I have nothing to do with his disappearance!”
“How can we trust you?” Garmadon snarled, resisting the urge to lunge at him. “And how do you two know each other?”
“Enemies” Shancai explained.
“Enemies? I’m hurt Shanni!” Enji sighed out dramatically, causing the prince to roll his eyes.
“Don’t care and he’s right…how can we trust you?” Shancai repeated Garmadons’ question.
“Shanni you know me! I don’t stoop as low as to kidnap someone like that” Enji sighed out.
“Why were you up in Ninjago?” Garmadon asked.
“Pretty obvious, had to get something. Enough questions though! I mean it, I don’t have anything to do with his disappearance but…” Enjis’ words trailed off as he fidgeted with his hair.
“But?” Garmadon snarled clearly wanting an answer.
“I’m not sure about Rida…I’m friends with him, but he won’t tell me everything…” Enji sighed out, receiving a confused look from the oni and a nod from the prince.
“And! This won’t be the last time we’re meeting!” Enji laughed out to Garmadon, before running back into the bedroom and jumping out the window. Garmadon and Shancai followed him and stared out the window. Enji was gone. Shancai knew why of course, enchanted mirror. Garmadon though was really fucking confused.
“Who’s he?” The oni asked the prince.
“Enji…and enemy of the kingdom, insufferable…but not heartless” Shancai answered as he stared out the window, “He speaks the truth…he wouldn’t go out of his way to kidnap someone like that”
“And the other person he mentioned?” Garmadon asked once more.
“Rida, he’s…more likely to do something like that” The prince sighed, “He’s heartless…he enjoys making his prey suffer…”
Garmadon let out an exasperated sigh, “I can deal with them some other time…I need to get back to the city and find Vinny…” he spoke up, receiving a nod from the prince.
“My mother is ready for that and so are your friends” Shancai spoke, the oni nodded in response and the two began making their way. But not before Garmadon took one last glance at the room.
“I do believe we’ll find him…and hardly injured” Shancai spoke as they walked down the halls. “He’s smart, he’ll find a way to get back”
“I know…one the day he disappeared, I saw you two training for a bit” Garmadon began, he wanted to ask about the hallucinations Vinny had before that caused him to attack Shancai. The prince seemed to see where this question was going as he let out a sigh.
“Hallucinations were what we thought at the time…however it was Enji” Shancai spoke, causing Garmadon to look at him in shock, “Enji’s the elemental master of illusion…he used it for the worse, sometimes the better though”
Garmadon remained quiet, on the day where Enji attacked the ninja in the catacombs, Vinny had been the one to suggest that Enjis’ powers were like an illusion. Did Vinny know this man? Was Enji the cause for all these problems?
“We’re here” the prince spoke up, snapping the oni from his thoughts as he entered Deitys’ room. As expect all the ninja were there and so were Willow, who had wanted to say goodbye too and Deity obviously.
“So we’re remaining in contact to find him?” Lloyd spoke to Deity, who nodded in response.
“That’s good…” Nya sighed.
“We’ll find him, I’m sure of it” Deity spoke as he allowed the steam of the travellers tea to float in the air to make a portal.
“Well whoever took him I’m gonna kill them” Willow spoke with a smile as she hugged Nya, they had bonded over making fun of that picture with Shancai and Vinny were sleeping and wearing makeup, more so in a sibling way obviously.
Garmadon remained quiet, he didn’t know what to say. He was worried, angry, and sad…he hated it. He should’ve protected Vinny more. He couldn’t remember anything else that had happened there, he didn’t want to remember. They were back in Ninjago, thankfully in the monastery.
“Home!” Kai sighed out in slight relief as he rushed to his bedroom, Jay and Cole following close behind as they went to their own rooms. Pixal and Zane went their own way though, leaving Lloyd, Wu and Garmadon outside.
“Da-“ Lloyd began but was cut off.
“I’m gonna rest” Garmadon spoke as he just walked off inside, Lloyd wanted to go after him, but Wu held him back.
“He needs to be alone” Wu sighed to his nephew softly, Lloyd nodded softly letting out a sigh.
Garmadon entered his room, not the room that he had when he was giving Vinny space, but the room that they first shared together when they first came here. He felt so much closer to Vinny, he missed him.
The oni crashed onto the bed, letting out an annoyed groan. He wanted to destroy something, but chose against it and laid on the bed for a while before he eventually passed out.
Where could you be Vinny…?
Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 93
(I suggest you check out parts 1-92 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
(With Deity)
Deity had checked out what the maids told her about, turns out Rushifa, cursed a plant and it was attacking. Nothing a little magic couldn’t fix. Deity was on her way back to her room, she enjoyed talking to Vinny. He was sweet, but just had the worse luck ever.
She was a little surprised when she made it back to her room and saw the door wide open, she cocked her head to the side as she looked it. It was empty. Vinny wasn’t in sight at all. Maybe he went to his room to grab something? Deity checked the bathroom, but there was no one in there either.
She went back out her room and it’s then when she noticed glowing dust on the ground. “Strange” Deity spoke out loud to herself as she began following it. Was Vinny safe? No idea. But she really hoped for the best. The dust led to Vinnys’ room, which was also wide open.
Deity hesitantly entered and noticed the window wide open too, and the dust trailing onto the bed. “Vinny?” She called out, as she knocked on the bathroom door. No answer. She hesitantly opens the bathroom door. Empty.
“Maybe he bumped into one of his friends?” Deity spoke to herself as she exited the room and began searching for the ninja. “Please be alright…” she whispered, trying to reassure herself.
“Deity?” A voice called out, Deity whipped her head around, Nya.
“Hello dear” Deity spoke, giving her a forced smile, before she stopped and turned back to the water ninja.
“You alright?” Nya asked worriedly, noticing Deitys’ tense stature.
“You wouldn’t by any chance have seen Vinny have you?” Deity worriedly asked.
“Not at all” the water ninja replied curiously, “Why is something wrong?” She asked, failing ti hide the worry that forced its way into her voice.
“It’s just that we were talking and I had to do something, now he’s not in my room or his room” Deity answered, “Maybe I’m overthinking it…” she shakily sighed as she rubbed her head.
“Maybe he went to your son? We can go check with the others if he’s with them” Nya spoke, she was trying to reassure Deity and herself.
“That would be nice, thank you dear” Deity sighed out, “And he can’t be with Shancai, he went on patrol, that’s why I was with Vinny” she confessed, receiving an understanding nod from the water ninja as the two began quickly walking down the halls.
The others were all sitting in this one room, it was like a lounge room. Kai, Jay, Zane and Pixal were talking while Cole and Lloyd were on their phones. “Oh hey Nya!” The lightning ninja spoke out happily as he waved at her.
“Hey” the water ninja sighed, while Deity looked at the ground. Zane, Pixal and Lloyd must’ve noticed the tense sate of the two, as curiosity brightened in their eyes.
“What’s up?” The green ninja asked, slight worry tainting his voice.
“Has anyone seen Vinny?” Nya questioned, causing the others to perk up.
“No? We’ve all been here for the past hour and a half” Kai answered as he cocked his head, wondering why his sister would ask this.
“Fuck…” The water ninja muttered as he rubbed her temples.
“Did something happen to him?” Zane questioned, as they all listened intently.
“Vinny sort of disappeared after Deity left him alone for a few minutes, and he’s not in his room, not with Shancai…so we’re seeing you anyone has seen him” Nya confessed, causing the others’ jaws to drop.
“Can he not get a break?” Cole asked, “Dumb question, but do you think he went back into the forest again?” He added.
“Trust me…he would never go back in there” Deity spoke, she was confident with her words…after what Rushifa did to him last time? Never again.
“Shall we all look around the palace?” Pixal questioned.
“That would be amazing…we’re gonna go find Master Wu and Garmadon” The water ninja spoke, as she turned around to the door.
“Alright then…guess we can all just hope he’s alright” the fire ninja sighed as he got up.
“He better be alright” Lloyd spoke, receiving nods from the others. Nya and Deity turned around leaving the room, as they began looking around the spinjitzu brothers.
“Where do you think he could’ve went?” Nya asked.
“Not sure…but there was this glowing dust leading from my room all the way to his room” Deity confessed.
“This is so weird” the water ninja sighed, receiving a nod from Deity. The two looked around the palace for a while before finding Garmadon and Wu outside on the balcony. “Master Wu!” Nya sighed out in relief.
“Nya?” Wu spoke, curiosity tainting his voice as the two brother looked towards Deity and Nya. “Is something wrong?” He questioned.
“Have you seen Vinny in like the past 30 minutes or so?” The water ninja asked, desperately hoping they had seen him.
“No, shouldn’t he be with the prince?” Garmadon questioned as he cocked his head, it was clear anxiety was creeping up his back.
“Shanni went on patrol…I was with Vinny and left him for a few minutes to check on something and when I went back he wasn’t there” Deity confessed.
“We already told Lloyd and the others, they’re looking around the palace” Nya spoke.
“You were saying?” The oni asked Wu, concern etched on his face and in his voice.
“What?” The water ninja asked.
“We were talking about Vinny…and his strange attitude, I said he was fine but it appears I was wrong” Wu sighed as he rubbed his temples. Deity realised Wu was trying to keep Enji and Rida a secret as of Vinnys’ request.
“We don’t know if he’s missing for certain, he could just be somewhere and we just haven’t’ found him” Deity spoke, as she tried assuring Garmadon and herself, she was just as worried as everyone.
“Well if he’s actually missing, when we find him I’m getting an answer as to what the hell’s happening to him” Garmadon muttered before he walked out, most definitely looking for Vinny.
“I’ll go search my own” Nya spoke, receiving a nod from Deity and Wu. They both watched the water ninja walk out of sight, there was this silence between the two.
“Vinny told you about Rida and Enji?” Deity questioned Wu, breaking the silence.
“Yes, do you think they have something to do with this?” Wu answered.
“Perhaps…though it would be more so Rida” Deity answered, “I’ll be on my way then” she sighed as she walked off, leaving Wu alone. Deity was making her way back to the cameramans’ room, maybe she could find a hint or something.
The room door was closed. Strange. She didn’t do that. Deity slowly and quietly opened the door, not wanting to alert anyone that would be in there. She silently hoped that it would be Vinny in there.
Much to her surprise and dismay, it wasn’t Vinny nor Rida. Enji? And he was looking around, clearly not noticing the door opened. Deitys’ eyes sharpened as she too out her hair pin and grabbed Enji, pushing him against the wall, earning a yelp from the man as his eyes widened once he saw the hair pin against his neck. “What have you done to him?” She hissed.
“Deity! Long time not see…” Enji forcibly chuckled as he held Deitys’ wrist, just in case she decided to actually hurt him.
“Answer me” Deity scowled, as she pressed the hair pin down, not hard enough to penetrate, but enough to dent against the skin. Enji gulped, his adam apple bobbing as he stared up at her.
“Did what to who?” Enji asked, trying to calm her down, though his voice was tainted with some curiosity.
“Vinny, what did you do to him?” She threatened him with the hairpin once more, it was a really sharp hairpin.
“I haven’t done anything! I actually came in here to laugh at him, since some of his friends found out about me!” Enji answered, there was truth to his voice and fear.
“You’re lying about something about one thing in that sentence” Deity spoke, as she lifted the hairpin, about to stab it back down, though it was clearly a bluff.
“I-I swear I haven’t done anything to him! I just came back to get a photo he took!” Enji answered frantically as he turned his head away and shut his eyes, seemingly bracing for impact.
“Photo…?” Deity spoke quietly as she lowered the hairpin and let go of the collar of Enjis’ shirt. Enjis’ cheeks flushed in embarrassment.
“Yes a photo” Enji confirmed as he fixed his shirt. “I haven’t done anything to Vinny, and I refuse to fight you or even scratch…Shanni would kill me…” he muttered the last part.
“Then what I have you been doing?” Deity questioned, as she put the hairpin back in her hair.
“Photo book…” Enji answered as he looked at the ground.
“So that’s why you were here before” Deity spoke, Enji nodded slightly. “Are you sure you don’t know what happened to Vinny? What about Rida?”
“I swear on my life” Enji answered, “Not sure about Rida…he’s been really busy lately” he added.
“Very well…i believe you dear…” Deity sighed in defeat as she sat on the bed.
“I’m sure he’ll turn up eventually, he’s annoyingly persistent” Enji spoke, “Anyways best I be off” as he walked to the windowsill.
“The photo’s in my room…Vinny showed me it…” Deity confessed, as she rubbed her temples, Enji stopped in his tracks and looked back at her.
“Thank you…” Enji whispered as he reached for the enchanted mirror.
“Take care of yourself…for Shanni” she added.
“I will…and I have been…” Enji chuckled as he smiled ss her before throwing the mirror in the air and letting it fall back down. “I’ll see you around someday” he spoke, before disappearing.
Deity let out a shaky sigh, Enji didn’t take Vinny…Rida wasn’t clear however. A window wide open, no other traces than faint glowing dust…was all to similar to her…oh how she missed her husband. Even after all these years she still hopes he’s alive…maybe the same can be said about Vinny…
(Enji not wanting to hurt Deity is the cutest thing, cause he would never hurt Shancais’ mother. And Deity still having a soft spot for Enji is even cuter, because she can’t hate Enji, because Shancai loves him. I can’t live without my doomed yaoi😭😭😭)
Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 74
(I suggest you check out parts 1-73 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
(With Vinny)
The cameraman shivered as he felt the smaller snakes climbed onto him and licked his skin. “Now now…how are you in the palace? I’ve never sssseen you before?” Rushifa spoke as she grabbed a decayed corpse off the ground and tore off its arm before biting into it. Vinny felt like he was gonna be sick, if the smell wasn’t enough seeing that definitely would.
“I-I j-just me and my f-friends-“ Vinny was stuttering like crazy as he held back a gag. He hated it here, he hated everything at the moment…
“Oh you’re even more fun than I thought” Rushifa laughed out sadistically as she allowed a snake crawl up to her ear? Ear holes? Whatever snakes have. Vinny watched as it hissed into her ears, seemingly telling her something. She pulled her veil down before getting really up close with Vinny.
The cameraman was caught off guard by her appearance, she was blind? A scar across her whole face, while her fangs were sharp like daggers, that could pierce through the air. “Your friendssss are coming!” She says to him as her tail squeezes around choking the air out of his lungs while her stinger threatened to pierce his cheek.
“W-what?” Vinny asked worriedly, they couldn’t be here, maybe Willow and Shancai knew how to fight this snake. Rushifa took another bite of the torn arm, her teeth sinking into its rotting flesh before she threw it against the ground allowing the smaller snakes to go after it and satiate their hunger.
“You heard me” She circled around him, “Your ninja friendsss and SSShancai along with that inssssuferable Willow are here! In my domain” She giggled, her voice darkened when talking about Willow, she didn’t seem to like her, “But no worriesss! I’ll deal with them” she hissed, before throwing her veil back on.
“S-Say! We haven’t had proper introductions, w-why don’t we ask some questions about each other?” Vinny asked as he tried to squirm out, but failed miserably due to the tail wrapped tightly.
“Rida wasss right about you, you sssure care about your friendssss” she hissed as she slithered down to a rotting tree stump and sat against it, her tail grip on Vinny loosening ever so slightly, “I suppossse you can ask some questions” she added, as she put her hand up signalling for him to continue, her nails were sharp they were more like claws…
“Uhh r-right…h-how do you know Rida…?” The cameraman hesitantly asked as he took a deep breathe of relief as her grip loosened.
“Me and Rida both dissslike the kingdom, we are not friendsss neither acquaintancesss he asksss for the occasional favour, I decide if I listen or not” Rushifa spoke as she allowed the smaller snakes to climb onto her and wrap around her neck.
“S-so neutral terms?” Vinny asked, receiving a nod from the snake.
“Now I have a question for you” She began, Vinny hesitantly nodded in agreement allowing her to continue. “Why does Rida have his eyess set on you?” She questioned, as she stood up again and circled around him, stopped behind him.
“I…I don’t now…” Vinny sighed before taking a sharp breathe as he felt a sharp claw press against the back on his neck.
“Are you sssure?” She questioned once more as she rested her head on Vinnys’ shoulder while wrapped one hand around his neck.
What the actual fuck was going one? Was all that was going through Vinnys’ mind, he hated being touched like this, “Y-yes…” he shakily responded as he tried to pull away from her touch, knowing very well it was futile. He wanted to kill himself the moment he felt her hand on his thigh…he met some random fucking snake lady in the forest and was now being harassed, who has this happened too before?!
“Don’t be shy” she whispered into his ear, “You were an easy one to convince to come here” she added, as she turned Vinnys’ face to a lifeless body on the ground..the exact body of the servant he spoke to before. Vinny felt disgusted more specifically at himself, why couldn’t stop her? Why was he so weak!?
“L-let me go…” Vinny whimpered out, it wasn’t an order but a plea, he hated being touched like this.
“What would Garamadon think if he found you like thisss?” She asked her voice feigning with mock empathy, Vinnys’ heart ached at the thought of Garmadon, she was right, what would he think? Would he be mad? Disgusted?
He didn’t want anyone else see him like this…he wanted to curl into a ball and die, she chuckled before reached towards the ground and tearing a piece of flesh of a body and pressing is against Vinnys’ mouth, “Eat it” she ordered, Vinnys’ heart dropped and his stomach twisted…he kinda missed Enji right now…
“W-what?” The cameraman managed to whimper our shakily, as he tried pulling his head away from the flesh being pressured to him, surely she must be joking? There was no way he would eat that…or so he thought…
“You heard me, eat it” she repeated her tone harsher as her hand entangled in Vinnys’ head keeping him in place and unable to turn away from the food?
“I-I can’t t-there’s h-how-“ The cameraman began stuttering again, he felt light-headed, where were the others? He couldn’t careless if they saw him like this…he wanted to leave he wanted to be free…
“You will eat it, whether you like it or not” She repeated, as she continued to pressure Vinny. “Eat it…and you and your friendsss may be able to leave somewhat unscathed”
Vinnys’ heart ached hearing that, he wanted to protect them, but what if she was lying? “S-swear?” He asked shakily, “Swear we’ll all leave a-alive? Hardly injured?” He added, desperate for an answer.
“I’ll hardly hurt them…I’ll attack if they attack firssst and have a little fun, but their injuriesss will be none too harsh, but a ssscratch of sssome sortsss” she answered, Vinny let out a shaky breathe as he turned his attention to the piece of flesh in front of him…what it worth it…?
“I-I…” the cameraman stuttered, out a snake hissed something into Rushifas’ ear.
“Time isss ticking, your friendsss are closse” She says to him as she pushes the flesh closer to his mouth, Vinny wanted to vomit, everything here was revolting.
“C-can’t I get s-sick?” He stuttered out.
“We’ll just have to sssee, I’ve done thisss to a certain someone nod she isn’t ill” Rushifa responded as she laughed softly, “Now eat” she hissed harsher than before, the grip of her tail loosened now Vinny was able to move his hands.
Tears welled in Vinnys’ eyes as he shut them tightly before opening his mouth slightly, Rushifa let out a sadistic chuckle before placing it in his mouth. It was disgusting…the coppery taste of the blood mixed with the salty tears of his, he held back a gag, “Chew” she ordered, “And make sure to swallow” she added in a playful tone.
He whimpered as he chewed, he wanted to throw up, he wanted to wash him out out. Eventually Vinny forced himself to swallow, before she fully released him from her tail, he dropped to the ground and sobbed staring at the ground, hoping he didn’t do this for nothing.
A small flicker of hoped burned in his chest as he heard soft muttering of a group of people in the forest and Rushifa noticed it too, staring a Vinny before lifting up his chin, “Best you smile for them” she says to him before planting a kiss on his cheek…that worsened Vinnys’ sickness as he tried rubbing away his tears…no one needed to know what he did…
Rushifa used the smaller snakes to hold Vinny down as she hid in the shadows. He didn’t fight back, he was tired and weak…his eyes widened as he saw Shancai and Willows’ figure followed by the rest of the group, their eyes instantly widened as they saw Vinny as they ran over and tried pulling the snakes away. “Shit! Are you alright?!” Willow asked with worry as she controlled the vines to throw the snakes all away,
“I-I’m fine…” Vinny answered, his voice was hoarse, it was an obvious lie…they all could tell, he was weak and shaky. The cameraman was helped up, everyone looked worried out of their mind, but he was drawn out of his thought, by a demonic echoey laugh, right…Rushifa was still here.
Willows’ eyes widened and she growled in annoyance, she didn’t seem to like Rushifa as much as Rushifa hated her. They all were on guard as they stared around. “She uses the smaller snakes to see us…” Willow spoke to them all, receiving a nod from the others as they drew their swords.
Vinny was surprised…because the moment no one payed attention, Garmadon pulled him as close as possible, Vinny looked up at him, he was so much more worried than the others…his heart ached…
“You made quite a bit of friendsss Willow” Rushifa spoke as she hanged from a tree branch using her tail, the nature elemental was about to attack, but was held back by her brother, “Sssoooo sssnappy”
Rushifa attacked first, hitting Jay with her stinger and falling into Nya’s arms. The rest of the ninja fought back, while Nya stayed with Jay who was slowly using his body function. Willow went over to the two before creating a berry, “Eat it” she spoke as she handed it to him, the lightning ninja did as told and his function was given back.
Vinny was just standing there, Garmadon was just standing in front of him…protecting him…his mind was numb…he couldn’t get rid of the coppery taste in his mouth, but he was drawn out of his thoughts by a loud hiss as Kai slashed his sword against Rushifas’ face tearing the veil and scarring her across her eyes…she was definitely gonna have another scar.
The group watched as the snake retreated into the trees followed by smaller snakes. As they determined she was gone they focused their attention on Vinny. “You sure you’re okay? She didn’t hit you with her stinger?” Shancai questioned.
“Yea…” Vinny responded his voice was monotone and his expression was blank, other than the slightly puffy eyes. The others noticed this, and it seemed to pain Willow the most. Willow began walking one way followed by everyone, he remained quiet he felt like if he spoke he would burst out in tears and throw up.
“Why’d you go here?” Zane asked, everyone looked just as curious.
“Some lying bitch convinced” Vinny grumbled, his tone was filled with hate, everyone seemed surprised by his tone, “I wasn’t going to! But then there were fucking wolves and I had no where else to fucking go!” He hissed, his anger was directed at himself.
“Are you sure you’re alright…?” Lloyd asked as they went back on the path, Willow waited till everyone got out and sealed that part of the forest again.
“I’m fucking fine…” Vinny answered as he walked past them trying to get back into the palace.
“Vinny seriously…what happened?” Nya asked, desperate for a proper answer.
“Nothing fucking happened! Drop it!” He hissed as tears began to well in his eyes again, they were caught off guard by his harsh tone and watched him walk into the palace leaving them jaw dropped.
“Show someone go after him?” Jay asked.
“No…he needs to be alone…” Willow sighed out as she rubbed her temples, the group nodded and slowly dispersed.
Vinny entered his room and fucking ran to the bathroom, he dropped to his knees in front of the toilet and almost immediately threw up, it was so relieving…he felt guilty for snapping at Nya, but they wouldn’t blame him if they found out what he did. He continued to throw up gagging and crying to himself.
Who the hell did he piss off for this to happen?
(I don’t know what Vinny did to deserve me to do this)

(I suggest you check out parts 1-72 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
(With Willow and Shancai)
Everyone had went to go rest up after the sparring they were going to the markets later. “Hey…where’d Vinny go? He disappeared” Willow spoke up to her brother as they walked together.
“I am unsure…though Nya did go somewhere, I presume she knows?” Shancai answered, his sister nodded and grabbed his hand and tugged him towards a different hallway. “Where are we going?” He asked.
“We’re gonna go ask her if something happened, he wouldn’t just leave like that” Willow spoke, receiving a nod from her brother. They continued to walk down the halls before knocking on the door, Jay opened it.
“Oh hey” Jay spoke, clearly surprised to see the two.
“Hey, can we just borrow Nya for a second?” Nya asked as she peeked the in the room and looked at Nya who was laying on the bed.
“Uhh, sure?” Nya spoke up as she stood and went to the door allowing Jay to go back to the bed and rest there. “What’s up?” She asked as she stood at the door.
“Is…everything alright with Vinny? We noticed he was missing and you also went off…did something happen?” Willow spoke up, Nya let out a sighed as she rubbed her temple and her expression softened.
“Yea…he just has a lot on his mind” Nya replied, she didn’t know Shancai and Willow knew about Vinnys’ relationship with Garmadon.
“Should we check on him?” Shancai asked.
“I…don’t think so…he really wants to be alone” Nya answered.
“We know about his relationship with Garmadon” Willow whispered just loud enough for Nya to hear, but not Jay. The water ninja looked surprised hearing that and looked back at Jay before turning back and exiting the room and closing the door slightly.
“He told you?” Nya aksed, as the two nodded, “I…don’t know if I should tell you…” she sighed.
“Please we’re begging you” Willow begged.
“I…fine” Nya sighed, “Garmadon…wants a break from their relationship and Vinny isn’t taking it well…” she confessed, causing Willow and Shancais’ eyes to widen.
“H-how was he when you checked on him?” Willow asked, concern etched on her face.
“He…looked like he’d been crying” The water ninja spoke quietly as she looked at the ground.
“He wishes to be left alone?” Shancai questioned, receiving a nod for Nya, “Would checking on him be fine?” He asked.
“Should be…from what I’ve seen he enjoys both your company, might be sleeping maybe” Nya answered.
“R-right…” Willow sighed, “Thanks for your help” she added as she smiled softly.
“No problem…if anything happens, please tell me if you can…and I’ll tell you whatever I can” Nya answered.
“We will, I swear” Willow spoke.
“Bye…” Nya spoke softly as she watched the two leave and wave. The water ninja sighed to herself and rubbed her temples before going back into the room.
Willow and Shancai began making their way to Vinnys’ room, “Well he’s definitely gonna be quiet” Willow spoke.
“As expected…he didn’t seem to expect this to happen” Shancai answered.
“Enji’s…taken a toll on him…” The nature elemental spoke her voice quieter than before, Shancai stopped in his tracks and let out a shaky sigh.
“I know…” He spoke as he stared at the ground, Willow put her hand on her brothers’ shoulder.
“I know it’s hard…” She spoke softly, “Vinny’s gonna find out sooner or later…if you don’t tell him Enji will” she added.
“How am I meant to tell him?” Shancai asked, distress in his voice, “How would he react when he finds out?” He added.
“Shanni…he’d understand…and plus this was when we were kids, you didn’t know what would happen” Willow spoke in an attempt to comfort her brother.
“I could’ve stopped it though” Shancai retorted.
“You and Enji were kids, dumb kids…as much as you hate Enji now you still have some care for him, because he was your friend” Willow spoke her voice more harsh but still caring, “You can’t change the past…” she spoke quieter.
“Don’t remind me…” Shancai mumbled before walking ahead, Willow sighed and went quiet. They walked the rest of the way in silence before reaching Vinnys’ room.
Willow gently knocked, “Vinny? You in there?” She asked, no answer, she knocked again and waited a while, “I’m gonna come in” she called our, before opening the door and looking around.
“Where is he?” Shancai asked, as he stared at the empty bed and empty bathroom.
“Maybe he went for a walk? We can ask a servant if they saw him” Willow suggested receiving a nod for her brother, “I’ll go one way you go the other” she spoke as she exited the room and closed the door.
“I’ll see if his friends have seen him” Shancai spoke as he walked one direction while Willow went the other.
As Willow walked near the exit to the garden, she saw a group of servants, “H-hey, sorry for bothering, but have you seen a man here?” She asked one.
“Uhh yes yes, he was staring at the garden” one spoke with brown hair.
“And someone we didn’t recognise spoke to him, she had bangs that covered her eyes” Another spoke with blonde hair spoke, Willow’s heart dropped.
“D-did he go in the garden?” Willow questioned.
“Yes, he’s been there for a while, is everything alright?” Another with black hair spoke.
“Y-yea…everything’s fine…” Willow replied, “C-can you make sure no goes in the garden at all for me?” She requested.
“Of course” they spoke in unison.
“Thanks you” Willow spoke shakily, before bolting off towards the direction her brother went, she went down hall after hall, before finally spotting her brother, with Kai, Lloyd, Zane and Pixal. “Shanni!” Willow called out as she ran towards her brother.
“What? Did something happen? Are you hurt?” Shan is asked with worry as he made sure his sister wasn’t hurt.
“I-I’m fine” Willow spoke as she began to catch her breathe.
“Then what happened? You look like you ran across the whole palace” Kai spoke.
“I-I think he went into Rushifa’s part of the forest!” The nature elemental blurted out to her brother, her face was red from the running, she was taking deep breathes and she looked scared really scared. As Shancai heard those words his heart dropped. “I-if he went in there h-he might die!” She added.
“Who’s Rushifa?” Lloyd asked.
“In short words a serpentine with a hypnotic voice and invisibility” Zane spoke, receiving a nod from Kai and Lloyd.
“Are you sure?” Shancai asked.
“Y-yes, I asked people a-and they saw someone they didn’t recognise t-talk to him a-an-and-“ Willow was hyperventilating and Shancai noticed this.
“Calm down…we’re gonna go check…” Shancai spoke softly as he attempted to comfort her.
“What’s going on?” A voice spoke as Wu, Garmadon and Cole entered the same hall as them.
“Vinny might be in danger…” Lloyd hesitantly spoke as he braced himself for his fathers’ reaction.
“What!?” Garmadon hissed, they may he having a relationship break, but just as he said he still loved him.
“He might’ve went into the part of the forest I told you all about” Willow spoke to Wu and Garmadon, “And if Rushifa gets her hands on him who knows what might happen” she added, as she allowed her brother to lead them all one way towards the garden.
“Are we all coming?” Cole asked.
“If you want” Shancai spoke, as he summoned his spear.
“I’m gonna go get Nya and Jay” Kai spoke up as he ran towards his sisters’ room in a different hall.
“If he has a scratch on him then so he-“ Garmadon grumbled.
“Calm down…he’s still upset from the your conversation before, seeing you overprotective might upset him more” Wu whispered the his brother.
Kai came back with Nya and Jay, “You’re sure he’s in there?” Nya immediately asked.
“Yes” Shancai spoke, as he went down the pathway into the forest. Willow was terrified.
“She’s relentless…might toy with him till she’s bored and kill him” Willow whispered to her brother.
“Don’t dwell on those thoughts…he’ll be fine…I’m sure” Shancai whispered comfortingly.
As they stopped at torn away vine and shrubs from darker side of the forest, Willows’ heart dropped, “There…we’re wolves too…” she spoke shakily as she observed the bites and tears of the vines.
“There’s no blood though? Meaning he couldn’t be hurt?” Jay spoke up.
“Yes…but he didn’t go back into the palace either…” Willow added as she controlled the wines to create a bigger opening.
“It reeks…” Kai muttered.
“That’s the smell of rotting bodies…” the nature elemental admitted, “If you see one don’t touch it” she added, as she entered.
“T-this Rushifa…is there anything else we should know?” Lloyd asked.
“She had a stinger at the end of her tail…how? I don’t know…but it’ll paralyse you and in rare cases kill you, her having the voice of a siren she can control animals too…more specifically the snakes” Willow answered as she remained on guard leading with ever brother.
“Wow…I wish I didn’t know that…” Jay whined.
“What are the chances he isn’t hurt?” Cole asked, receiving glares from everyone, “N-not badly hurt, maybe a scar or something…he’s a guy with a broken arm…he’s only weapon is a dagger that we don’t even know he has” Cole added.
“Best we don’t think about it, and make sure he comes out alive” Shancai spoke up.
“Uhh guys…” Kai spoke shakily as he picked up torn fabric off a jagged tree branch. “This is definitely new…” he added.
“At least we know he’s here” Pixal spoke, it was true at least they knew he was in the forest and not blindly walking.
This was gonna take some time…

(I suggest you check out parts 1-70 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
“Is there a training grounds here?” Nya asked, Shancai nodded in response.
“We could use some training…fighting against someone we don’t know due to our new threat” Lloyd spoke.
“New threat?” Willow muttered to Vinny.
“Enji…” The cameraman whispered back, Willow made a ‘oh’ sign with her mouth and nodded.
“How about we finish eating then we can go?” Wu asked, receiving nods from the others.
“Where’s your mother?” Jay blurted out to Willow and Shancai, they both shrugged.
“I saw her earlier…but she was busy with something…” the nature elemental spoke, Vinny and Shancai exchange worried looks, wondering what was up with Deity.
They all finished eating and began making their way to the training grounds. When they went by Deitys’ room Vinny paused, he wanted to see her. “Everything alright?” Kai asked the cameraman noticing he stopped walking.
“Uh…yea, go on without me I’ll catch up, just gotta do something” Vinny answered receiving nods from the others as they began walking again, Willow and Shancai staring as him curiously, Vinny pointed to Deitys’ door and they both realised what he was doing and nodded, then walked off.
Once he was alone, he worked up the courage to gently knock on the closed door. He didn’t hear anything and waited a bit more, thankfully the door was opened and Deity stood there. She looked overworked…was that chest Enji took worrying her that much?
“Morning dear…” Deity spoke softly as she gave him a small smile, it was obviously forced and didn’t carry the same comfort of one true smile.
“Morning…” Vinny replied, “Sorry…for bothering you, I just wanted to check on you” he added, Deitys’ expression softened hearing that.
“I’m well dear, did you rest well?” She questioned.
“Yea…I wanted to thank you too, talking to you helped…” Vinny spoke to her, when he spoke to her, he felt like the weight of the world was lifted off his shoulders.
“It’s no problem dear…talking to you helped me as well” She answered, “Is everyone awake?” She added.
“Yep, we were going to the training grounds, Willow suggested Shancai spar with the others and he took up on the idea” Vinny replied.
“That’s good…” she sighed, “I checked up on you early this morning…you weren’t in your room, but then I went to Shancais’…I was surprised seeing you all bunched up together…” she chuckled.
“I wasn’t planning on it…me and him were up and we must’ve woke Willow up, but she came in and suggested a sleepover…it was really nice” Vinny answered, his expression softened at the thought.
“I also happened to check again and find Willow purring makeup on you two” Deity teased, causing Vinny to blush.
“Y-yea she did…but it was funny…” Vinny spoke through embarrassment.
“Best you be off, before you lose your way” she teased.
“R-right!” The cameraman laughed out as he looked back in the hallway, “I’ll see you later” he added, Deity waved goodbye and watched Vinny run off into the hallway and try to catch up with the others.
Vinny was out of breath as he finally made it back to the others, “Look who decided to grace up with his presence” Kai teased as he allowed Vinny to lean against him and catch his breath. Garmadon looked at the cameraman and sighed, he wanted to talk…but how…?
“Those…” Vinny panted as he pointed to the halls, “Are some long ass hallways” he breathed heavily.
“That’s why you walk in them” Shancai spoke as he summoned his spear and gently bonked Vinnys’ head.
“I had to catch up!” The cameraman answered, “And I was not going to talk to someone to find you all!” He added.
“Idiot” Nya teased, as they all exited the palace into a large area.
“Here we are!” Willow spoke joyfully as she pointed to the area, it had archery targets, hay targets and all types of training equipment.
“Sometimes I forget we’re in a huge kingdom…” Cole spoke as he stared into the large area. They went down the stairs and designated one area to their training.
“Shall we warm up?” Zane questioned.
“Stretch” Shancai spoke, “You two may not pull a muscle” he pointed to Zane and Pixal “but they will” he added as he pointed to the rest who are not nindroids. “You’re not fighting I take it?” He asked Vinny.
“I would pull a muscle with or without stretching” Vinny chuckled, and sat down where Shancai pointed. Wu and Garmadon sat on the side.
“Shanni! Take off your armour, you’re sparring!” Willow begged her brother, Shancai rolled his eyes, before taking off his top armour piece, he was wearing a black compression shirt underneath. Goddamn did he have muscles.
“I do not want to fight him…” Jay muttered to Kai and Cole.
“Agreed…” Kai and Cole spoke in agreement, Shancai rested his armour piece next to Vinny, who just stared at it and tried poking it…never again…that’s heavy…
“How about we just do weapons first?! Then we can have on with you all using your powers!” Vinny suggested.
“That’s wise” Zane spoke.
“Very well” Shancai answered as his eyes scanned his spear for any damages, the other ninja nodded in agreement.
As the ninja finished stretching and warming up, they debated who was sparring Shancai first, “I say Jay goes first” Kai suggested.
“W-what why me?!” Jay answered, clearly offended.
“Cause if you can beat him we can” Cole teased, he was just playing along with Kais’ teases.
“He won’t kill you!” Willow called out from next to Vinny in an attempt to comfort them, “Not sure about hurting though!” She added, she wanted to mess with them.
“He’ll hurt them?” Vinny asked her.
“Nah, I’m just messin’ with em’”Willow answered, causing the cameraman to snicker. “How about you all go at it?!” She called out.
“What?” Lloyd asked curiously.
“You all attack him with weapons!” She answered.
“A-are you sure? Maybe that’s too much” Nya questioned.
“What’s that meant to mean?” Shancai questioned, to him it sounded like he was being underestimated.
“N-nothing!” Nya spoke immediately.
“Sure…we can do it…?” Lloyd replied, causing Willow to smile happily.
“You sure this is good?” Vinny asked.
“I know my brother and his limits…and he knows them too” Willow replied to Vinny.
They all positioned themselves, Shancai in the middle surrounded by the others, Vinny, Willow, Garmadon and Pixal all sitting out. Kai attacked first, lunging forward with a sword, the prince dodged with ease, moving with grace. He used the blunt end of his spear to knock the others away.
As Jay attacked with nunchucks Shancai used the spear head to lodge it in the chains of the nunchucks and pull it out of Jays’ hands throwing it to the side. “Cocky” the prince spoke as Kai attacked again, “Slow” he spoke to Cole, who was using a scythe, “Aggressive” he said to Nya, who growled at him.
“I’ll show you aggressive…” Nya grumbled, Cole managed to grab Shancai from behind using the spear to keep his arms back, while Lloyd put a sword to his neck, they seemed to have let their guard down slightly.
Shancai jumped off the ground and used Zanes’ chest for power as he knocked off it, freeing his arms from Coles’ grip and landing behind him, “Save your celebrations till after all escapes are blocked” the prince spoke as he knocked Jay to the ground and held the spear to his throat.
“Geez okay!” Jay spoke with fear, he didn’t like this, Shancai sighed and got up.
“You spend too much time calculating every possible outcome, remember you don’t know your opponent you’ve never fought me before” Shancai spoke as he used his spear to point to Zane.
“I like him…” Wu muttered to Garmadon, Wu clearly liked his teaching style and how he critiqued their flaws.
“You put too much power in your hits and that slows you down” Shancai spoke as he pointed to Cole, “Too confident in yourself…you don’t know your limits” points to Kai.
“He didn’t kill them…but he killed something” Vinny muttered to Willow who laughed.
“Aggressive, something spoken that you dislike you’re triggered” Shancai spoke and pointed to Nya, “And you’re not confident enough” points to Lloyd.
“Geez…harsh much” Kai spoke, with fake offence.
As Shancai began helping better their techniques Wu got up and began helping as well, they did get along quite well. Pixal joined Zane in seeing how she can better her techniques.
“Gonna go see what he says about me” Willow spoke to Vinny as she got up and went to her brother Vinny nodded. Now it was just Garmadon and Vinny sitting out.
The cameraman tried to ignore Garmadons’ presence and focus on what Shancai was doing, but it failed…because Garmadon sat next to him, “Hey…” the oni spoke quietly.
“Hey…” Vinny replied bluntly, he didn’t want to talk, but he missed him.
“I…need to talk about something…” Garmadon mumbled, his voice becoming quieter and sadder.
“If it’s about my health then no we won’t talk about it…” Vinny sighed as he looked at the ground.
“It…isn’t…” The oni whispered, Vinny looked at him curiously…what could it be about…?
“Alright…I’m listening…” the cameraman sighed.
“I understand…the past few days haven’t been the best for both of us…” Garmadon began, Vinny nodded in following, “I love you…I really do…” he added quietly, the cameraman looked at him curiously…where was this going…?
“What’s wrong…?” Vinny asked, he was impatient, he was scared, nervous and terrified…
“A break…” Garmadon confessed quietly, Vinnys’ heart dropped.
“A-a break? What’s that meant to mean?” The cameraman asked, he needed to make sure it wasn’t what he thought it would be…
“We need a break Vinny…” Garmadon repeated as he stared at the ground, he couldn’t bring himself to look at Vinny.
Vinnys’ heart dropped heading those words, his mind just turned off, “I-is it me…?” He managed to whisper out.
Garmadon immediately panicked seeing Vinnys’ reaction, “N-no…it’s not…we just need…some space from each other, you need space…” Garmadon answered, as he looked at Vinny.
“R-right…just a break…” Vinny breathed out sharply.
“I…I still love you…I do, though having a relationship at the moment isn’t working for us…” Garmadon confessed, it clearly pained him to say all this.
Vinny just nodded, he couldn’t speak, he couldn’t think, he couldn’t move…what was happening…?
“Are you a-“ Garmadon cut himself off as Vinny got up and walked away. He really didn’t know what he was doing…he wanted to keep Vinny safe…but nothing was working…
Vinnys’ mind and body worked in auto pilot as it just walked back inside the palace. Nya, Wu, and Lloyd noticed this and turned their attention to Garmadon, who was looking at the ground rubbing his temples and stroking a hand through his hand.
Vinny just kept walking and walking…where was he going…? No idea…did he want to know? No…all he knew was that his life just collapsed in the span of 3 minutes…

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 70
(I suggest you check out parts 1-69 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
As the night went by Willow stirred awake, she quickly remembered what happened last night and sat up, one of her legs were sprawled across her brothers’ body while Vinnys’ arm was sprawled against Shancais’ chest. Shancai just had his arms wrapped around the two in a comforting way.
“He’s still sleeping…that’s a first…” she chuckled to herself quietly as she looked at her brother. She turned her attention to the window and squinted her eyes as she was hit with a dull ray of sunshine. She quickly turned away and rubbed her eyes. Willow grabbed her phone and checked the time, “8:53…” she muttered before working up the energy to get up.
She made sure to be careful not to wake up the other two, as she made her way out of the blanket fort. She stood there for a moment wondering what to do before a devilish smirk appeared on her face as she ran like a gremlin to her room and gathered a bunch of things into her arms.
She rushed back to her brothers’ room and closed the door behind her. Willow threw the stuff she grabbed into the bed and picked something up…lipstick…she sat next to the two, moving Vinnys’ arm from Shancais’ chest. She did their makeup…being extra cautious on her brother due to his cautiousness.
As the Shancai began to stir awake, he attempted to sit up, but was weighed down by Vinnys’ leg. He looked around and noticed Willow awake on her phone, “Morning” the prince spoke to his sister.
“Morning sleepyhead” Willow replied, “You slept in, it’s 9:45” she added as she teased her brother.
“It is…?” Shancai looked surprised hearing that.
“Yep, no one else is awake though, other than mama though she’s busy with something” Willow replied, as she smiled at her brother.
Vinny began to stir awake, his eyes fluttering open as he stared at the blanket roof and blinked. “Morning…” he spoke as he continued to lay there.
“Morning, sleep well?” Willow asked, Vinny nodded.
“Yea….” He answered, “Sorry…” the cameraman spoke to Shancai as he moved his leg from his body, allowing the prince to sit up.
“All is well…it was fairly comfortab-“ Shancai cut himself off as he looked at Vinnys’ face, Willow however was biting her lip holding back a laugh.
“What…?” Vinny asked curiously, as he looked back at Shancai and his jaw dropped.
“Your face…” Vinny and Shancai spoke in unison, the prince immediately looked at Willow, who was snickering to herself. Vinny however grabbed his phone and went into the camera.
“Holy shit Willow…” Vinny laughed out as he saw his face, Shancai looked at Vinny, who turned the phone towards the prince allowing him to see his face.
Shancai took a deep breathe as he looked at his face, “You can’t deny it’s funny” Willow laughed out.
“It definitely is funny” Vinny confessed as he held back laughter.
“How much did you put on?” Shancai questioned as he touched his face, only to have some foundation pressed onto his hand.
“I have no idea! But you were sleeping so I did it” Willow admitted as she fell back onto the makeshift floor bed and laughed out, kicking her legs.
“Can we take it off?” Vinny questioned.
“Yep! I already took a photo of both of you” Willow teased, causing Shancai to sighed and Vinny to chuckle. “Off to my room!” She added as she stood up, the two men stood up and followed her out of the room.
“You both gotta admit that was a hell of a good sleep” Willow spoke.
“It was unusually comfortable…” Shancai confessed.
“Definitely, it was so comfy an-“ Vinny was cut off.
“What the fuck?!” It was Nya who was bursting in laughter as she saw Shancais’ and Vinnys’ face.
“I-I can explain?” The cameraman spoke awkwardly, Shancai however immediately went into Willows’ room and dragged Vinny in.
“I have pictures! I’ll show you later!” Willow called out to Nya, who gave her an approving nod. The nature elemental went into her bedroom and laughed seeing her brother, he was clearly embarrassed by this.
“Did you use all that?” Vinny questioned, as he noticed a bunch of makeup products scattered on her bed.
“Obviously” she spoke as she playfully rolled her eyes and pushed the two into the bathroom and handed them a bottle. “Wash that on your face, scrub it in like really really well” she added.
Shanghai and Vinny nodded as they turned on the water, wet their faces and began using whatever cleanser they were given. “Never do this again…” Shancai sighed.
“Normally I would agree, but it’s fucking hilarious waking up and seeing my face covered in makeup” Vinny spoke.
“See? Someone gets me” Willow spoke as she wrapped her arm around Vinnys’ neck.
“Yes yes…” Shancai rolled his eyes, “We’re all getting dressed…correct?” He added, receiving nods from the other two.
“Then we’re eating, I’m starved!” Willow spoke, “Then I have pictures I need to show Nya” She teased the two.
“She’s never gonna let me live that down” Vinny whined, as he dried his face with a towel he was given by Willow.
“Neither will I!” The nature elemental teased, as she watched the two begin to leave her room, to change their clothes.
Shancai sighed as she closed the door, “She’s nice” Vinny spoke to him.
“Yea…” the prince admitted, “She is, isn’t she…?” He added.
“You two balance each other perfectly…” Vinny replied, receiving a nod from Shancai. “See you for now…” he added as he went into his room, the prince just waved goodbye and went into his room.
Vinny closed his door and stared at the closest, there was a bunch of clothes. The kingdom must’ve had guests a lot, he didn’t really know what to wear, everything was so modest. Maybe the others were wearing clothes that modest? He saw Nya wearing something definitely from here.
He eventually settled on something, it wasn’t too complicated, but it was blue, his favourite colour. And to say it wasn’t comfy would be a lie. All the clothes were so soft and flowey. Vinny was happy when he realised it had pockets and he shoved the dagger into there, then he put his shoes on.
He looked in a mirror and sighed in relief, he was looking so much better. He liked it here…
Vinny took a sip of water from his water bottle which was given by Shancai the previous night. He eventually left his room and saw Willow and Shancai leaning against the wall. Shancai was wearing his armour and his hair in that singular bubble braid while Willow was a shirt with shorts and her hair in a loose braided bun. It was a clear contrast between them all.
“Looking good” Willow spoke in a singsongy tone as she ruffled Vinnys’ hair.
“So are you both” Vinny replied as he laughed and tried fixing his hair.
“I suppose your friends are waiting for us” Shancai spoke to Vinny.
“Would be a shame to keep them waiting” Willow teased.
“I know…” Vinny sighed, he wondered how Garmadon was doing at the moment.
“Oh right! Forgot to tell you, I saw mum talking to your lover yesterday afternoon, after she spoke to you” Willow spoke, as they all began walking.
“T-they were? Did you hear anything?” Vinny questioned, he desperately wanted answers.
“Not really, though I heard love in their conversation” Willow smirked as she nudged Vinny, causing him to blush.
“That’s…sweet?” Shancai spoke awkwardly, causing Willow to laugh.
“What’s funny?” Vinny questioned.
“Sunshine here doesn’t know anything about relationships, he knows basic stuff, but can’t take hints!” Willow teased her brother, “He’s never dated someone, hell he’s never kissed someone!” She continued to tease as she poked her brother.
“Seriously?” Vinny asked, Shancai reluctantly nodded, “How!? Everyone should be fawning over you!” He added, the prince looked a little surprised.
“That’s what I tell him” Willow said, “It’s so painfully obvious when someone flirts with him, he’s smart, but not relationship smart” she added, a hint of sympathy in her voice.
“Enough you two…” Shancai sighed as he rubbed his temple and walked ahead.
“Hey! Slow down!” Vinny called out as he caught up with him, followed by Willow.
They continued to walk down hallways before entering what was most definitely a dining room. Vinny smiled to himself as he saw his friends all sitting there. Most waved, other than Garmadon who just gave him a nod of notice.
The three sat down, Vinny next to Lloyd on one side and Shancai on the other, while Willow was next to Shancai.
“Who cut your hair?” Kai spoke up to Vinny.
“Is it that obvious?” Vinny chuckled, quite literally everyone nodded, “He did” he added as he pointed to Shancai.
“Well you look so much better than recently” Lloyd spoke, Nya however was smirking at Willow who was signalling for her to come over. The water ninja sat next to Willow and laughed out as she saw a photo of Vinny and Shancai, sleeping with makeup on.
“What’s up?” Cole questioned, Vinny and Shancai stared at the table with pure embarrassment as Willow held up here phone. Everyone burst out laughing, hell even Zane and Pixal let out a small snicker.
“That was this morning?” Lloyd asked, receiving a nod from Willow. Garmadons’ expression softened as he saw the picture, it was weird…Vinny was so close to Shancai…he felt weird…he didn’t like it…Wu seemed to have noticed his brothers’ distress.
“Were you all sleeping in the same room?” Wu spoke, but silently speaking on his brothers’ behalf.
“Yea, we were all awake in like the middle of the night, and I suggested we have a sleepover! So we did!” Willow answered, Garmadon felt a little relived hearing that…Wu let out a sigh of relief noticing his brother.
“Any plans for today?” Nya asked.
“Might show you all around the kingdom” Willow suggested, “Though maybe you can spar with my brother? I’m curious about your powers, I haven’t really met another elemental” Willow spoke, it was partially a lie with Enji in the question.
“I don’t see why not” Wu spoke.
“Sounds like a plan” Vinny spoke up, receiving nods from the others.
(Just so everyone knows, Willow is dark-skinned and has white hair like her mother, while Deity is extremely pale and has white hair as well, Shancai is a mix of both, his vitiligo is dark-skinned and pale-skinned with black hair)
