What does each ninja think of their counterparts?
Morro: *glowers at the camera, hands clenched tight* He deserved his death, messing up Monty like that. Deserves it a million times over.
Kai: *leans over and whispers to Lloyd* Wow, I haven’t seen him this angry since, y’know, we thought you were gone…
Lloyd: *nods somberly, then looks sheepish* Okay, don’t take this the wrong way, but Monty kinda scares me. *waves his hands around in a ‘no’ motion* Not in a bad way! He’s really cool, and so, so different from me, but I think that’s why he’s scary. He’s been through so much more than I have if the story he told Morro is anything to go off of, and yet he still manages to be a great ninja, a great brother, and a great person in general. He never gave up in situations where I would have just quit. I wish I had that determination.
Morro: Don’t sell yourself short, Lloyd. You may not have had to deal with what he has, but that doesn’t mean you haven’t come out on top of your own struggles. You’re as determined as he is; after all, it takes a lot to keep defending the city after everything they do.
Lloyd: *gives a sad smile* …thanks Morro.
Zane: I, for one, am fascinated by my counterpart. Silver is not only obviously a nindroid, but he also emulates humanity to a degree that I could not hope to achieve at this point in time.
Nya: I like mine too! She’s such a girl boss, building all of the team’s mechs and stuff. Also she can control water, which is crazy cool.
Kai: Don’t forget the whole Sparky thing.
Nya: Oh yeah. The only thing that’s kinda weird is that she’s engaged to Other Jay- er, Sparky. Like, ew? No offense Jay, but I could never see us like that; you’re like a bro to me.
Jay: *stares dejectedly at the floor* Y-yeah, same here…
Kai: Oh man, Smithy’s so ninja! He’s got fire powers, he can do spinjitzu, and he can make weapons! A real blacksmith, not like those ones you only see at the Ye Olde Fantasy Fair. If I could do all that, I’d be the most awesome ninja ever, but I guess he can hold that title for now until I catch up.
Cole: *rolls his eyes* Good luck on those fire powers.
Kai: Heyy! You never know! Maybe I just need to fly into space and get hit by some cosmic radiation or something. Nya, help me build a spaceship!
Nya: *gives him a deadpan look*
Kai: *sticks out his bottom lip and pouts* It was just an idea…
Cole: Rocky’s great. Has some…questionable music tastes, but he likes cake as much as I do. We’re cool.
Jay: Uhmmm… I guess I also wanna be like my double someday. Sparky is so confident, never worrying if he looks stupid trying something. He just does it and it works out. H-he told me he was the first one of their team to do spinjitzu! Maybe if I hang out with him enough, I’ll be the first one here to do it too…
Nya: *snorts* Well, we all know who won’t be the first one to do it right.
Morro: *his cheeks flush a deep pink and he glares daggers at her* There’s a reason for that and you know it!
Lloyd: I mean, he was the closest out of all of us to actually performing spinjitzu proper…
Kai: Yeah, and the closest to flinging us halfway across Other Ninjago too. *holds up a hand*
Nya: *high-fives her brother*
Morro: Oh sure, laugh it up now. Just remember who’s in charge of your training schedule.
All the ninja: *let out a collective groan*

So, you may have noticed that show!Nya’s nickname didn’t get mentioned… yeah, she kinda doesn’t have one yet. I have Aqua as a working name for now, but it doesn’t click like the rest of them did. Any suggestions? 😅
But yeah! I’ve super enjoyed coming up with different scenarios for the two teams to hang out with each other 😁 Their similarities and differences are fun to play up.
