Ok so I have this idea that when Zane got rebuilt in season 3 he was rebuilt as a Borg android that is a entirely different model than his father originally made him to be.
The Borg androids where designed with antennas and chunkier limbs (old art for reference (the wings are not a Borg design))
When Zane wakes up on Chens island he doesn’t remember who he is at first right? But in my mind he still feels some sort of loss of his old body. He is just uncomfortable with the body he woke up in and he doesn’t know why.
When he remembers he becomes more aware of this feeling because now he remembers being “human” more clearly.
He remembers how his body should feel and why his current body feels so wrong to him. His limbs are to big and are hard to maneuver compared to his previous limbs. His antennas pick up every single sound and he hates how they sometimes slightly brush against his head.
He feels like this during all of season 4 but can focus on trying to save the ninjago. But as things calm down it starts to take its toll on him. Pixal tries to help, trying to get him to talk to the other ninja, but theres only so much one can do when stuck in someone’s head. She feels a bit lost not only because she physically cant help but also because she struggles to see the problem ,i mean she understands why zane is feeling this way but she also doesn’t? Like on a emotional level she understands it but not on a logical level. She struggles to comprehend how Zane cant see anything positive with his new body.
(More art :3 Right is older)
This all comes to a boiling point where Zane essentially has a break down of sorts where he breaks his antennas off (it doesn’t really hurt him). After this he finally goes to his friends for help. (or they find and help him)
Nya and Jay build new limbs and switches the his limbs for the newly made ones. The limbs are darker than the rest if his body and definitely not at advanced as his previous limbs but they work well for the work they do and the look more like his first body (they kinda just looks like black prosthetics and begins at the knees and elbows). This makes him feel a lot more comfortable in his own body.
