Admin Introduction / Pinned Post

This was a LEGO sideblog. (inactive)

Call me Emerald

My pronouns are he/they/it

I identify as transmasc/agender & asexual

I'm an adult

My favorite ninja are Cole, Lloyd (comfort character) & Kai (who I've dubbed 'Mineral Brothers'), though I also like Morro loads as well as Pixal as Samurai X, Akita is my favorite side character and Sora is my favorite from the new gen ninja.

I've seen Ninjago (Pilots → Crystalized (incl. Day of The Departed & the mini movies/shorts) & Dragons Rising s2pt1), Dreamzzz (S1 → S2pt1) & Monkie Kid (Pilot → S5) but no other Lego show (as of now).

My favorite ships are (in no particular order): Holly (Lloyd x Akita), Lava (Kai x Cole) & Sandstorm (Morro x Cole). I'm not serious about shipping (as long as they're not pedophilic, zoophilic, incestuous etc).

I didn't tag everything upon originally rb'ing/posting so I'll be slowly going through my blog to tag everything with the separate characters, ships and other necessary tags for blog organizational purposes

Tags I use (added at the bottom of the post):

Any and all reblogs: #reblog

My art: #emeralds ninja art (ninjago only)

Favorite artist reblogs: #emeralds fave artist rb tag!

My writing: #emeralds writing

Questions or thoughts I have about things (nowadays just any original LEGO related post I make): #useless ramble

Screenshots I collect of Cole, Lloyd & Kai together: #mineral brothers

Fanfiction recommendations (ao3/wattpad): #emeralds fanfic recs

R3W1R3D:

Please do not talk to me about Harumi. She makes my skin crawl & her 'spider themes' play into my heavy arachnophobia. :] Also, stay away from me if you genuinely ship her with Lloyd (aka you don't acknowledge the issues between the characters (Harumi playing with his feelings to keep him close so that it's easier to hurt & manipulate him, for example) and realize they couldn't have worked in canon unless she let go of her hatred for him and put in the work to change.. Still, it makes me uncomfortable, I do view them as step-siblings due to that s9 scene and the way Garmadon talks about her to Lloyd and Wu in Crystalized). Thanks. :))

This should be everything. If anything is left unanswered don't be afraid of sending an ask or message to me.

poses, man (ft. my eevee keychain plushie)

[emerald-cloud23]

umm not sure if this counts as a spoiler since im just theorizing about something not related to the show (yet?) but just to be safe: maybe future spoilers ahead

future/enemy lloyd (the minifig from the may cmf) will have something to do with the vision that had the many gravestones i feel like. if he appears at all that is... which i hope he does, i wanna see that guy animated in the show

[emerald-cloud23]

spoilers

yk i had a feeling it was going to be them when they said there's loyalists inside imperium but i didn't expect them to go to the monastery to, probably, see their daughter. i kind of have a feeling they'll try to convince her to come back to imperium with them, saying something about how the power there doesn't work properly anymore and their daughter is so smart, she could probably solve it and blah blah blah just to lure her back. also still not calling her sora, i think.

spoilers

ngl I'm kinda tired of having someone from Imperium being the bad guy/one of the bad guys

s1: all of imperium

s2: jordana (ras, if you wanna count him)

s4: the empress, dr larow, loyalists

[emerald-cloud23]

I don't know if this is just my Netflix (Germany) but I just noticed (12:25am) that only Dragons Rising is left? And even then, only seasons 2 and 3 (4 hasn't come out for me, no spoilers) ???????

edit: nvm everything's back

[emerald-cloud23]

so that new unicorn academy character is giving harumi on all levels

[emerald-cloud23]

aehggh. duo. them. im gomna combust. lloyds face in the first one—

[emerald-cloud23]

it is wednesday my dudes. happy 15

[emerald-cloud23]

"Ugh, is it wednesday already?"

[literallynyaninjago]

the ninjago fortnite collab and specifically the discourse surrounding it is pissing me off specifically because people are once again trying to say nya and lloyd aren’t part of the main team. lloyd’s been a ninja since s1 and nya since s5 which came out in 2015. THAT WAS TEN YEARS AGO. THEYVE BOTH BEEN PART OF THE TEAM LONGER THAN THEY HAVENT I HATEEEEE OG4-ONLYS THIS IS NOT A SAFE SPACE FOR OG4-ONLYS !!!!!!

[emerald-cloud23]

… I quit.

[emerald-cloud23]

whatever, i give up coloring this. it's been over two months anyways, i'm not coming back to it.

[emerald-cloud23]

Ninjago Season 2, Episode 2-

Wu to Lloyd: “With this power, you must be careful. You must control it before it controls you.”

.. Okay, what were they hinting at? Was that ever revealed? Would be a cool little (accidental?) nod to oni Lloyd in the future, tho.

[emerald-cloud23]

why are his eyes like that

Silly Dragonians

MAGAZINE HAS COME IN AGAIN (has it been a month already?)

Prepare for some adorable Frak - NO spoilers for s3 pt1 in the comic! Images under cut to save your feed

The figure Frak seems interested in is actually in one of the Ninjago City sets (Ninjago City Markets I believe, I've Garden and it's not there and Workshops is too new- There's a matching Jay one in the set, too (and a matching Kai one in the Tournament Temple City set, which I also don't have yet)). HOWEVER. It is also listed on Pick-A-Brick ^^ Along with the Jay one.
