had the realisation that, because the ninjargon symbol for lightning is the kanji for sheep (羊), when jay joins the wolf clan and shatters his soul - making his character into an enemy with the face of a friend - he is quite literally a wolf in sheeps clothing

a chart for your consideration

When you look up a fic to comfort read and see its gone and the author is too..........how heartbreaking....

[wyrmswears]

kills me when people are talking about times jaya has been separated and they drop skybound, seabound, dragons rising, and completely skip over hunted. painfully obvious hunted didnt capitalise well enough on the week where the creation 4 were thought to be dead because no one gives a fuck about it

au where i draw jay like this instead of this

OBSESSED with your Mockingbird AU, take some head canons (you can discard if they don't align /gen)

Something something Cole sensing something is wrong but not knowing what because he was a ghost for a bit and is more attuned to that now (but is too distracted by the screaming earth to realize exactly what he's feeling)

Something something Jay's only context for ghosts being cursed like his best friend Cole and an angry painful possession of Lloyd via a vengeful Morro so of course he's going to freak out about Libber regardless of who it is

Something something the element of lightning revolting against Libber because it's Jay's now and wants to defend him

GRAHHH I LOVE PEOPLE COMING UP WITH HEADCANONS FOR MY AUS<3333 OGH AUGH OK OK

(This is for my Mockingbird AU)

This first one I fuck with so much. Cole just knowing that something’s wrong. There’s an unsettling familiarity to Jay, one that reminds Cole of himself (or who he was), but he can’t determine the actual cause. I’m eating that up and hitting it with the ‘canon’ hammer. Bam bam bam. It’s so good especially because that familiarity then contrasts how unfamiliar this Jay is in every other way.

The second one is absolutely true, Jay’s never exactly had a pleasant encounter with a ghost, but I will say that I’m not sure Jay is even aware he’s being possessed in this AU. His experience of possession isn’t the same as Lloyd’s where he was aware of everything that was happening - Jay is unconscious for the most part (because he and Libber are genetically similar, his body is much more happy to relinquish control to her). He struggles initially, and possibly in future circumstances, but that’s less a battle against Libber for control and more against unconsciousness, and what he probably perceives in the moment to be death. When Libber possesses him in a desperate attempt to regain life, Jay thinks that he might be dying.

The element of lightning revolting against Libber?? Canon!! I actually drew that as one of the first sketches I did of this AU but it’s the only one I didn’t post. Have it now to make up for my foolishness.

She doesn’t wield lightning as fluently as Jay does (or as she used to) while in his body, making her attacks dangerously powerful and much more indiscriminate.

Thank you so so much for this ask it was so fun GRAHHH<333

Hi

In your Jordana lighting master au what is her and jay relationship like? why did he protect her from Nya even tho she works for ras? Why did Nya and the other ninja react to dragon jay and why did Nya try to kill jordana

First of all, for anyone new here, this is about my Jordana Lightning Master AU.

Hii!! Thank you for asking me about my AU gahsgshsg I hope the answers are satisfactory.

For the first one, you can find information about Jay and Jordana's relationship here since I recently talked about it in another ask :D as for the other questions..

Why did Jay protect Jordana from Nya, even though she works for Ras?

Jay isn’t entirely himself throughout this AU. As a person, he still lacks memories from before the Administration and thus doesn’t remember any connection to the ninja. His main goals are related to protecting Jordana, so when Jordana feels terrified of Nya and perceives her as a threat, his immediate course of action is to defend Jordana from said threat.

At this point in the story too, Jordana isn’t working for Ras. That ended when he ‘abandoned’ her at the tournament. Besides that, she hasn’t been a fan of Ras since before Jay was murdered and Jay has never seen her as a willing lackey of Ras’, instead seeing her as a scared kid with little ability to defend herself against (and therefore defy) Ras.

How did Nya and the other ninja react to dragon!Jay?

Nya instantly recognises that the dragon is Jay. She doesn’t even remember to be scared, overwhelmed by the fact that she’s face to face with her lover that she never honestly thought she’d see again. All ninja aside from Nya don’t recognise Jay at first, and react defensively, moving back and even activating their elements in preparation to be attacked. Not Nya though. She loses all feelings of anger towards Jordana and can only focus on one thing - her yin’s presence.

Cole would be the one trying to reason with Jay if Nya wasn’t already doing so by the time he realised who it was that was curled protectively over Jordana. He is the first to Nya’s side though, holding himself back, putting the others before him as he always does. He can’t get between Nya and Jay as much as he wants to tell Jay that him being his best friend is a good enough reason to calm down and have their long overdue reunion, but he can help her try to convince him that their relationship suffices as a reason. Whatever brings his brother back and makes his sister feel at ease.

Kai will always grasp at whatever opportunity he is given to bring one of his siblings back. Compete in a dodgy tournament? Done. Release a dangerous criminal and steal a powerful artifact? You fucking know it. So to him Jay still being here represents an opportunity. One that he will let uproot the quiet acceptance that had let him cope with the news of his brother’s death. Up until this point, Kai is the one who has coped the best with Jay’s passing and is the one that Jordana feels the most comfortable with. This event changes that.

Lloyd is the last to act. He’s far too caught up on what destiny wants from him, their fate to save the world, and a perpetual necessity to keep moving forwards that he struggles to re-evaluate Jay’s death from something he can’t do anything about to something he should do something about. It’s easy enough when Jay’s dead dead. In that case, Lloyd knows that he should keep mentoring his students, keep training, keep preparing for what comes next. Now that Jay’s not quite dead, he has to change his plans. He can’t just focus on finding Arin anymore. And it certainly isn’t that Lloyd wants Jay to be dead, that’s his brother, but some part of him thinks that it’d be easier if he was. He’s the most unsure when approaching Jay, doubting their ability to properly bring him back.

Zane is not there for the initial reveal. He will get to see Jay in his own time, but Zane is an avoidant type when it comes to his problems. Jordana sparsely sees him at all until he finds out about Jay’s presence because, to Zane, if he isn’t around her then he doesn’t have to acknowledge that his brother is dead and that she has his element.

Sora is definitely the one most concerned with Jordana. She’s just spent the last week telling Jordana that this element is her own, the same way Lloyd told her when she thought her Technology element was given by Riyu, and now it undeniably is not just Jordana’s. Because the previous master of lightning is there, using it right now. She should feel happy for her mentors that their friend is alive, but mostly she feels dreadful foreboding at what this means for Jordana.

Wyldfyre thinks that’s a sick ass dragon and wants to know how to use her element to do something like that.

Why did Nya try to kill Jordana?

She wasn’t trying to kill Jordana. Probably. It’s hard to say, ok, but (without spoiling too much) Jordana has experience with feeling like her life is in immediate danger. A lot of this comes from Ras; seeing him murder the old master of lightning only for her to become the new one puts her in a terrifying position, knowing just how easily he could get rid of her without a care in the world. This means that she perceives Nya’s overwhelming rage as a threat to her life.

So, why is Nya acting so aggressively towards Jordana? A villain has her fiance’s element (which means her fiance is dead) and, against Nya’s wishes, has followed them back to their home, where that same villain is now being taught exactly how to replace her fiance. Jordana’s fear just makes Nya feel worse - she’d rather Jordana fought back and played her part as a villain. Deep down, she knows that it’s probably not Jordana’s fault, that this kid isn’t to blame and could honestly quite do with someone on her side for once, but Nya wants someone to blame, and there’s no one else around to be that scapegoat but Jordana. If only Jordana would act in a way so that Nya could truly feel it was deserved.
