Welcome to the dumpster fire! I will violently explode at the slightest mention of anything posted here, so stick around to see what I've devoted my 2 brain cells to this week! Spoilers: It's Ninjago, I can't escape it. It's taken over my life, do not send help, I'm perfectly fine with this.
I've been here a while now but I haven't become super active until recently, so hello!! I go by Luna most the time, but I honestly don't care what anyone calls me. I'm your bro/she baked potato landlord, please pay your fees in crow friendship points.
I have a ton of fandoms but currently I've been obsessing over Ninjago, so fair warning, that's the majority of my blog right now.
I'm not a great artist but I do post doodles occasionally too. Ultimately though, this is my dumpster fire and the wall keeping everything organized has long since burned down.
I'm also working on a book called The One in Control. It's not posted anywhere, but it runs around in my head like a cat at 3 am when my current fandom isn't screaming. I post about it quite a lot so if you're interested check out the #toic tag.
I don't really know what I'm doing, but it's fun here and I like screaming into the void, so I'm your guy's problem now! Feel free to scream back or throw raw potatoes at me, I love a good snack! XD
I finally started sharing some of my writing to some of my friends and oh my gosh, I get why ao3 authors always ask for comments, this stuff is awesome!!!!!!
I spent 4 hours meticulously making sure my oc got maximum damage with no comfort, only for me to think it's mediocre, but then here comes my friends all freaking and horrified by the energy I created in the studio. I'm over here cackling like a mad scientist as the comments go from "Oh this is cool!" to "Oh gosh! Oh no... Whyy would you do this?!?!? Stooooop!! Nooooo!!!!"
Reading all the questions I'm not going answer and all the theories that I'd never even considered being viable has also been really fun! I swore up and down that I spoiled an entire plot twist with a piece of my world building, only for them to put the blame on an npc I made strictly to be a tour guide and die. Like uuhhh I'm glad you think they're cool enough to have an important role, but don't get too attached... It's for your own good.
I've honestly never felt so proud of myself. I'm just over here like, "You like my skrunkly...? My pathetic wet cat? My gachaverse princess of a character??? I put them into situations and you cheer for me?? What do you mean you like it so far???"
Okay so first of all, I need the full version of the We Rise x The Weekend Whip remix asap!!! I was hammering the replay button on the intro every episode! 10/10 made me feel so powerful
I think this was probably the first season of dragon's rising that I actually actually cared about the a, b, and c plots, everything was so fun!!
I was really concerned how they'd go about Jay's memory at first, but mannnnn, I loved it!!! I'm with kai though, I was cheering for that first few seconds of Jaya, but my goodness, they would not come up for air... "That's my sister bro!"
And I didn't really just how much I missed their banter! The constant jokes and bullying made everything feel right again, especially Jay saying Kai only had the bad ideas.
Shout out to Nya for absolutely smashed Kai's foot when he was being too mean, 10/10 siblings right there.
I liked the plot with Sora, Frak, and Wyldfire, but I honestly don't have much to add. I will say though, the fighting style Riyu had after his upgrade(?) reminded me of Sif, the giant wolf from dark souls, and I immediately felt so sad...
And Yippppeee!!! Cole!!!! Bro I missed him so much! The stupid smiley face scene make me laugh so hard. Like yeup! That's our boi~ Loved the show down with the empress too! That was so cool! Idk why, but I kept thinking about Shintaro and how proud his mother would be. Her boy staying strong, still fighting on in her honor. <3
Okay but this is what I was really here for MORRO !!!! GAHHHHHH!!! He's ALIVE!!!!! or uh well, not dust? And Egalt just chilling there with him too??? Are they both guardians now because they both can't move on??? That's so sad, but so sweet! Lol balance the dead dragon trauma, this one didn't slurpie his soul, this one is friend shaped. I'm legit so glad he has someone there with him now, someone to talk to, someone to help bear the burden of being a guardian, someone to help fight off the soul suckers, even if it's just for now, until his wife has done all she needs to in the mortal realm and joins them.
But see guys, this is a message! If you're delusional enough and deny the voice line leaks being zero, you can still manifest a 5 second clip of your boi! Never lose hope!!! And now for a moment of silence for my friend who didn't read my volume warning message and watched a mumbled 3 second clip of content before my dragged screams and cackling deafened them forever...
Moment over! Time for Lloyd's plot!!
First of all, omg! I absolutely loved the whispering woods, from start to finish. I'm such a sucker for forests and adding ominous whispers on top? Boom sold!
I do have to say I was a little disappointed how easy it was for the protector of the forest to just be like, okay dang, okay, yeah sure, that sucks. After seeing the fannart of that scene from the trailers, I honestly was ready for her to start crashing out, or one v one Lloyd in a game of evil uno, or just straight up explode, but nope she just went "I see, we're screwed then lol".
Naw dragon girlie, the line is “BULLSHIT!"
(I can't even remember who's post that was, but I've been quoting it ever since, so ty op, whoever you are!!)
And duuuude lil'Lloyd was such a jerk! XD I love him!! Like dude I don't think it's the haircut that prevented him getting a girlfriend, it was probably the trauma, but eyy that's just a theory. I need a fic now with them bantering the entire time. Lloyd asking his other self if he was happy make me legit tear up, then his reply being the vague 'are you?' broooooooooooooooo 。:゚(;´∩`;)゚:。
They can't pull that crap and immediately have him be beat up by his fears and depression!!! That's so mean!!! Bringing up everything from the past, all the times he messed up, all the times he doubted himself, all the times he hurt someone else, all the times he was hurt- Don't think you can sneak that first part of harumi's betrayal song in without me noticing, I listen to that song so much it straight up activated my brain like a sleeper agent word! I was legit on the edge of the couch screaming and he gave in, as the words dug into him.
I think it's interesting to note though, he didn't defeat his fear, he didn't win, but he still faced them. He admitted he had failed, he had made a bunch of mistakes he couldn't take back, but he wasn't alone. And my gosh that's such a good message. You may never defeat your fears or fix your mistakes, but you can still keep going, not alone, but with your friends beside you. You are not alone so you don't have to face the darkness alone either.
Lego once again using ninjas to promote mental health and giving us the strength to keep going
The merged is about unity. Together we're stronger, together we can make a change. Together we will rise.
What a good message that is
And we can all agree, depression Lloyd looked sick right? I need that color as a fig asap-
I've had the most horrible last few weeks and was at my absolute limit when I finally got a day off. Ended up binging all of Ninjago season 5 in one sitting while working on a mushroom crossstitch kit I bought a year ago, and my gosh I straight up feel healed.
Got emotionally wrecked for the 3rd time by the same 10 episodes and suddenly life felt good again.
I don't know what kind of state work put me into but I can't stop singing Gonna walk 500 miles, but specifically the 'where'd my wood go cover', in animal crossing keyboard noises and the final countdown solely in Freddy fazbear 'ars'.
