Wasnt Really Happy With My Recent Cryptor Piece, Decided To Try Again

NINJAGO INKTOBER 2023 LIST

There wasn't a list for Ninjago before and now there is! This is the list I'll be using this year and hopefully some other people can have some fun using it as well.

If you do use this list, please use the tag! I'd love to see what other people create!

There are no rules other than to have fun (though this post will be updated if that changes lol). Feel free to use this for art or writing or to only vaguely adhere to it or skip days. Go nuts yall.

i understand the appeal of the in-universe memes about ninjago city getting destroyed constantly but there is so much more of ninjago to talk about!!!! give me ignacia memes about them bragging about kai. give me cole’s fiercely defensive hometown. show me JAMANAKAI VILLAGE so much oddly specific shit has happened there. idk. shintaro. stiix’s lingering resentment for them. the sea of sands unites behind jay like he’s an olympic athlete and then trashes on him for falling for the city life (becoming a celebrity). the samurai x fanclub discourse. there is so much to do with an in-universe meme format!!!!

No because Jay should have been allowed to swear during skybound. No other season has swearing but during skybound it’s free game.

Just Jay screaming “FUCK YOU NADAKHAN”

i found out the other day that gwen’s brother has an actual canon design and started freaking the fuck out because making a design for him has been in the back of my mind for over a year. his official unofficial name (just so i don’t have to keep referring to him as “gwen’s brother” over and over is Dax! (feel free to use this name for your own version of him if you’d like! i’ll be starting some tags for him)

anyway, i think cody’s social ineptness combined with the fact that he’s an only child would make for some really awkward interactions with dax. also, since dax is a bit of a rebel and goth himself, i imagine he’d probably have gotten along with duncan really well, and would be a little upset / disappointed at the change from a hardened punk to a softie nerd. eventually they’d warm up to each other and realize they have some stuff in common, i can picture the two of them bonding over video games and making music.

also, i will definitely be drawing cody with gwen’s mom at some point! i feel like’d he’d be a major suckup to her.

im 100% convinced nothing surprises these assholes. the merge happened and they were just like "alright" and went back to treasure hunting

What’s your favorite western animated movie

Believe it or not, the answer is still "the first movie I remember watching" after all this time. It was absolutely the formational experience. Every time I return to The Emperor's New Groove, I grow more aware of how much my current preferences were shaped by it. Protagonists more defined by their flaws than their virtues, reframing of jokes for drama, egomania as a character flaw, 4th wall humor, comically unreliable narrators, constantly bickering duos, radically dynamic equivalence in translation, Yzma's and Kronk's specific brand of manzai. All of these I love and have talked about loving here in this blog come from 4-year-old me having a great time watching a monarch become a llama.
