Ok but fsm telling little garmadon and wu stories about his adventures as bedtime stories while tucking them in
Don’t mind me I’m just sobbing in the corner.
Ninjago headcanons: spinjitsu fam edition (spoiler free)
Lloyd and morro picked up a lot of the same mannerisms from Wu, however it’s a lot more obvious in morro and he can actually make tea properly.
Mystake is the auntie of the family I don’t make the rules.
FSM was just as “there’s something I haven’t told you” as Wu.
Not necessarily a hc but imagine the pain of watching your child slowly corrupt, knowing he’s going to be taken advantage of by the origin of evil and not being able to do ANYTHING about it
That’s all today. Sorry it’s shorter then normal all my brain cells have gone to my au (which you can read here if you’d like 👉👈)
ask and thou shall receive! order up for @hellsballz!
Ninjago head canons: SPINJITZU BROTHERS EDITION
-Wu being absolutely CRUSHED by garmadon’s corruption, especially bc he blames himself
-garmadon does still care about his brother post corruption, but the normal sibbling mischief twists into attempts at his life
-TSM taking them on trips to verious now ancient monuments where they TOTALLY left graffiti that has baffled archeologists ever since
-he only took them bc every time he leaves them in the monastery alone he comes back and their mischief has caused considerably damage then it does when he’s able to supervise them
-they both have scars from rough housing when they were little, when the ninja ask about wu’s he says it’s from garmadon. They think something HORRIBLE and traumatic happened when in reality he just pushed him out of a tree or smth
-neither one of them handled garmadons banishment well. Wu didn’t sleep for at least a week. Garmadon cried himself to sleep. Both missing their brother. Both alone.
(I had this in my drafts for half a year i forgor)
(plus dive into Ras'plans??)
People, I'm putting my money's worth on Ras'master being the First Spinjitzu Master!
So i can't rant nicely now but look:
And the place where Ras'master teleported the dojo
Also it's clear that it's someone/something with great power if they can just do that.
And my theory on it being a source dragon has been buried with s2pt2(cause of the dead "balance" source dragon), so if not a source dragon then what. Well, eighter a new powerful character or FSM.
Also the color theme is very much Golden for the master...
As why he can't communicate normally is an intresting question.
Cause he speaks in morse code or broken toaster with Ras.
Maybe the merge fucked with his ability to communicate or smth(more on this below)
More reasons and Ras plan dissection contain SPOILERS for s2pt2 under!
We now know the goal of Ras and the Master:
To reverse the merge
(and all of this, somehow through the Sources, maybe capturing or even killing them, as we now know)
Sounds intresting, considering it doesnt exactly makes sense rn. Like, i get it, the merge was made to be prevented, it shouldn't have happened, but the merged lands are mixed right now. I don't even know how you could separate them anymore.
So obviously, the FSM was the first to want to prevent the merge, with the help of the Sources. He also created multiple standalone realms.
We also know, Wu had something to do with the eruption of the merge. Now its probable he didn't cause it directly and on purpose, since he was looking like he wanted to prevent it. My guess, maybe he was searching for the Dragon Cores and use them similarly of how Lloyd later fixes the merge quakes. And the origin of the merge is tied to the early Spinjitzu family, or just the FSM.
"Too soon"
So he did know it will come, just way more later.
But obviously:
So he didn't tell anyone but he probably knew this might happen all along cause his daddy told him... Oh Wu when will you learn
The last thing he tells Lloyd is:
"Remember, family is key"
Is also very intresting...
Another note, circling back to the idea that the FSM can't communicate properly is the exact same situation with Wu!
He is audiably struggling to talk to the ninja and barely speaks words.
So what if the merge affected the whole early Spinjitzu family (excluding Lloyd ofc). We don't know anything of Garmadon as of now tho, but he could be in a similar position.
Wu lives with this mistake he had a part in, but i doubt it's simple. It's probably the FSM's fault to begin with, as the possibility of realms colliding came after he created multiple more.
The reason why Ras' Master can't be Wu(plus he might doesn't even know the FSM did seek help from Ras) is simple. He is definetly not powerful enough to transport the Shadow Dojo. We haven't seen his full powers, but seeing him in this weakened spirit state is pretty much enough to prove that.
Another thing. He led the ninja to this location:
Which leads to the Monasteries in each realm. (Or just the 16 monasteries, since there seems to be both one in Imperium and one in The Land of Lost Things, which were in the same realm)
Ultimately this could be to warn them about the forbidden five's plans. Which doesn't contradict anything, the Forbidden Five has no intrest in Ras' plan, nor the Source dragons. But they can definetly complicate things.
But i am not sure if Wu has anything to do with Ras' plan or master as of now, but i can't explain it why. He may have, I don't know...
Also:
You guys think the Cauldron of Realms is the place Wu led the ninja to?
It doesn't look, cauldron-y but it definetly leads to all realms... And the place was referred to as a Monastery so maybe unlikely.
...
And with s3 around the corner this might change
