Your hc about kai being spared from prank wars bc of big brother privileges is so right I love you. I can imagine a massive prank war going on and kai having no idea its happening because lloyd specifically intercepts any pranks that would affect kai
anon… I love you MORE!!
imagine Kai just waking up on the morning wearing cat slippers and walking outside and he sees all the ninja on the floor and he looks at Lloyd and Lloyd shrugs and says, “prank war.”
half the time kai doesn’t even know a prank war is going on because
1) the master of pranks (Lloyd) does not touch him
2) anyone who lays a prank on Kai is to be demolished by the master of pranks
hes jumping up kicking back flipping around AND spinning
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)
*cries in ninjago* ♡♡♡
If somebody says one more time that Kai deserved to not only get kicked but also beaten up by jay in that one fight scene in crystallized I will THROW HANDS. No, I DO NOT hate jay. But I DO HATE tommy anderson
we know why jay acts the way he does. we have information about his past. we have an entire season about him and how he perceives himself (sky bound). Nadakhan literally pointed out that jay uses jokes to cover up insecurity. His true potential showed that he was insecure about being himself (until nya talked to him etc). We got like three seasons of him being the hero and saving entirety of Ninjago.
We were given Information about Cole’s past. We saw his childhood with his gorgeous mom. We saw in his true potential how he desperately wanted to be accepted by his dad. We saw Zane’s past. We saw how he sacrificed himself for the Ninja, understanding and acting upon the same words Kai had told him, “it’s about family, not numbers”. The writers could dive into Zane more, but we got something. And we also got some Nya, why she’s a perfectionist, why she isn’t that verbal, why she’s Independent; Kai said so himself, after all. Even though I wish we saw her talk with Nyad more, we still got her. And the entire series is about our boy Lloyd. And even though every one of them could be explored so much more, we got something. And for a few ninja, we got a lot of something’s. But not Kai. Rarely Kai.
Kai’s true potential was protecting someone. And I loved that, I did. But that’s it. If anything, it literally points out that no, he is not selfish. We never got a season truly revolving around Kai’s childhood struggles/trauma. Why is he reckless? Why is he protective? Why does he never cry? While the other ninja have their spotlights, Kai never had his. He is such a complex character (that ninjago refuses to dive into) and that’s why I love him so much.
I know. I know Kai can be rude to Jay sometimes, and bully him, but if it came down to it, Kai would die for him. Because this is the man that makes his sister happy, because jay does mean a lot to kai. Kai doesn’t show it - frankly, he doesn’t show a lot of things. And I know this doesn’t entirely excuse the way he acted toward jay before, but why. I want to know why he acts like that. But the writers never dwelled on it. Jay is allowed to confront and express his feelings about how Kai for ‘bullying’ him, but not like this ( by the way, idk if I guys noticed but lately Kai has been complimenting/hyping jay up a lot now.)
And when jay, who is grief stricken, leads him self to believe only he loved nya in the entire world, kai is allowed to get angry. Kai is allowed to feel anger towards someone acting like no one else loved nya when Kai raised her. Protected her. Did everything for her. Just because we did not see as much of Kai grieving as we did of Jay, does not mean Jay was more upset. For all we know, Kai was dying on the inside. She was his sister for gods sake.
Kai did not “deserve” that kick. And if you genuinely think that, i honestly do not know what to tell you.
STOP THIS IS EVERYTHINGGG
HEART EYES
Lloyd looking for his next victim >:)
what do you think about kailor
it’s not a bad ship- it’s really not. I like skylor and kai’s dynamic, but honestly? they just don’t feel like a potential couple, yk? Kai and Skylor are seen ‘flirting’ with each other in seasons throughout ninjago, and it’s understandable why some people think they like each other. they probably did, but I think it was just the type of crush you kinda just get bored of. I believe that Kai and skylor would be better off as good friends. Friends can flirt. It doesn’t need to mean anything. I do it all the time- additionally, it would be nice to have a friendship with a girl/boy and flirt w/them, but just for fun. I think this would go very well with kai and skylor, since this kinda of duo fits them and it’s cute.
I think If tommy wanted them to be canon, he would’ve done it a long time ago. also kai is impatient. if he wanted to be with skylor, he would’ve jumped on the chance long time ago. he probably did like her at some point, most likely during the tournament of element season, and gradually kinda just got bored/ fell out of interest. idk. maybe it’s just me but I definitely don’t see any ‘romantic’ chemistry. def see the close friendship though.
you all talk about buff-nya and not-buff-kai and I love that to death but let’s also talk about short kai and nya/ Lloyd being TALLER than him
because like imagine nya AND Lloyd being taller than him it would be so funny guys like kai would never forgive them for being taller and he’s def on the shorter side.. maybe even the shortest.. shhh…
nya grabbing things kai can’t reach? Ok it’s fine she’s nya she’s more buff than kai anyways she probably picks him up for workouts but LLOYD grabbing things kai can’t reach?? THE SAME KID WHO WAS LIKE NINE YEARS OLD LIKE BRO 😭😭😭 also THE OVER PROTECTIVENESS LIKE
anyone: the green ninja and that girl ninja suck
kai: take that back right now *fuming*
anyone: *has to look down at kai bc he doesn’t meet the eye level since he is short* someone get this angry gremlin a happy meal
AND like the ‘oh your so small where do you have all the space to keep that sass’ jokes 🥺🥺 SMALL AND SASSY … and…
no one:
kai: climbing cabinets and doing gymnastics on countertops to get to the ultimate boss cabinet aka the highest cabinet
nya or Lloyd: do you need-
kai: *airjitzu’s to the top of cabinet and probably sets something on fire* NO.
ALSO if any ninja is feeling cold it’s okay because kai fits perfectly in their arms and he’s a heating pad
