Might be getting back into the Ninjago tv show and chat, baby/toddler regressor Lloyd, hear me out on this
The only time he was actually given love by a parental figure in his childhood was when he was a baby and probably toddler. Well, if Misako was actually a good mother to at least a baby (i dont like her, Lloyd deserved better. He deserved Koko)
I have not seen any little Lloyd from the ninjago movie so I made a fic! Also, Koko is a way better mom than misako ever will be.
Lloyd was not having a good day. He was on the verge of tears. Stupid kids at school, stupid dad, stupid class! His brain was not working properly either! Everything was fuzzy and he could barely think properly. His dysphoria was also coming back to him whenever he saw his reflection. His hair was getting too long and it looked…feminine.
When the school bell rang, signaling the kids to leave the school, Lloyd could not be happier. Luckily, his dad didn’t attack that day but it was still stressful. His friends checked up on him during the day but it didn’t change much. He was mostly silent or would just push them away.
But the day just decided to get worse. The bus decided to leave without him and he needed to walk home now. His mom, Koko, wouldn’t be home for another 20 minutes so he couldn’t even call her to pick him up. So he walked home. His ribs ached due to his tight binder and feet hurt because he decided to wear sandals.
When he finally got home, he skipped getting a snack. He didn’t feel like he could even make one. He sat on the couch for a bit and watched the news but it made him feel worse. It was like he forgot how to read but at the same time, could make out words.he was so frustrated with the turnout of his day that he stomped into his bedroom.
His bedroom was pretty small. It had a loft bed and a desk underneath. It was against the wall so there was plenty of space in the room.
Lloyd couldn’t even make it to his desk before he crumbled. His knees hit the floor as the waterfall started. Tears flowed freely down his face. The pressure of the city was constantly weighing on him, the kids harassing him, and the stress of school was all coming out. He sobbed loudly while curled up in a ball in the middle of his room. He felt different. Like he was younger. He’s heard about this coping mechanism before and always wanted to try it but was too scared to. But now, the weight of the world was finally getting off his shoulders as he fell deep into littlespace for the very first time.

When Koko walked up the stairs of the apartment building, she couldn’t help but feel like something was wrong. As she got closer to her apartment, the faint sound of a little kid crying could be heard.
“I hope that kid is okay” Koko thought. However, it got louder as she came closer.
When she opened her door, the sobbing was its loudest. Thats when she realized that the kid crying wasn’t just any kid. It was her kid.
She quickly closed the door and threw her purse and stuff onto the couch before rushing to Lloyd’s bedroom in worry. A million thoughts plagued her mind. She opened her son’s bedroom door and immediately felt a mixture of feelings. Here she saw her son crying on the floor, tucked into a ball. She was glad he didn’t seem physically hurt, but something was clearing bothering him.
“Oh Lloyd, honey,” Koko sighed in sympathy. She knelt down to him and right when he realized she was there, he jumped into her lap and hugged her tightly, crying into her shoulder.
“Mama!” he bawled into her shoulder, knowing that he had regressed and was being extremely vulnerable with his mother. He didn’t care though. He wanted his mama.
“Shh, shh, its okay,” Koko comforted him in a soothing voice and rubbed his back. The childish voice was concerning but she decided to bring it up later.
The crying was muffled by Koko’s shirt and shoulder. She was extremely worried as he hasn’t cried this hard in years. As he calmed down and his sobs turned into soft crying, Koko noticed him bring his thumb up to his mouth and began to suck on it.
Once he calmed down, he decided his mom needed an explanation.
“Mommy-, i mean, Mom. I- I’m sorry… for acting weird and babyish,” he took his thumb out and instead fiddled with with fingers.
“No, no, its not weird. I think i know whats going on,” she said.
“You- you do?”
“Yeah, you’re regressing. I know what is and i support you no matter what,” Koko ran her fingers through her son’s hair.
“T-tank you…” he dug his head into her chest and hugged her.
“So, how old do you feel, sweetie?”
“T-woo,”
“Aww, alright. You can tell me what caused you to slip later. Do you want to take a nap for now? you look so tired,” she asked, looking at him.
“Yesh p’ease..” Lloyd was changed into some jammies by his mom and helped up into his bed. Koko did her best to tuck him in while standing on the ladder. When she got him down to nap, she snuck out of his room and into the kitchen. She sat at the table and opened up her laptop. She was going to do the best research and shopping she’s ever done. And it’ll all be worth it for her kid.
Lloyd woke up about two hours later. He was still feeling young but a little bit older. About 3 years old. He really needed to pee but couldn’t get down from his bed.
“Mama!” he yelled for his caregiver. It wasn’t long before Koko came in.
“I need to go potty!”
Koko quickly helped him down and just barely got him to the bathroom. As she waited outside the restroom door for him to finish up, she wondered if he would need any protection. It did take him a while to get fully potty trained when he was younger. She would ask him for his opinion later.
“Mama?” Lloyd called for her from behind the door.
“Yes, honey?”
“Cans you gets me..umm.. A new boxer?” he asked. His boxers he was wearing were a little damp since he didn’t exactly make it in time. He didn’t know why this was happening! He never really has bathroom issues! Maybe it was the regression?
“Of course, sweetie,” Koko said. She went to his room and got him a new pair. When Lloyd was done in the bathroom, his mom changed him into more casual clothes. She had already ordered him an adult pacifier but there was still a bunch of stuff she wanted to get him. But she would ask him before getting any type of protection, as it may make him uncomfortable.
“We’re gonna get you some little items, is that okay?” she said as she tied his shoes.
“Otay!”
She held his hand as they walked to the car. She decided that they would go to the mall. That place had everything. When they got there, Koko made sure to get Lloyd’s opinion on the little items he wanted. He was excited to get all this new stuff and flapped his hands excitedly. They stopped by the clothing store and tried on a bunch of clothes. Lloyd seemed to really like the dinosaur, dragon, and space themed clothes. After that, he got to pick out his sippy cup and even a couple toys! Their final stop was a stuffed animal store. The employees didn’t really like the fact that he was there, but they still helped him out. Lloyd picked out a cuddly teddy bear. Koko was a little confused because the store had dragon stuffies and dino stuffies.
“I wike da texture better,” he explained when she asked.
After he stuffed it, he picked out a dinosaur outfit for it. Even though Koko was a bit tight on money, she made an exception for him. Lloyd was always worried about their finances and the fact that he finally didn’t care about it, made Koko happy.
They stopped by a fast food place for dinner before going home. Lloyd ended up passing out on the car ride home while cuddling his new stuffy. So when they arrived back at the apartment, Koko carried him on her back and the bags from the mall in her hands. She was glad she still had the strength of lady iron dragon or else this would’ve been impossible. The sight of her Little finally getting the rest he deserved made her smile.
