I mean-
Cat King, mockingly: Well, aren't you sugar and spice and everything nice? Charles: Well, aren't you rudeness and sarcasm and everything… uh… Cat King: No, go on. You find something that rhymes with sarcasm and makes sense and I'll stop acting like an asshole.
A little idea I had laying in my bed. The basic thought process was: Ninjago's two characters who have literally been sent to a realm to rot in for literal DECADES. Morro, who's already struggling with his own exile from the departed realms finds a manipulated Zane and manipulator Vex. I mean both of them can't grow too old, and Morro probably would want a redemption for his deeds, the white ninja may be his path to doing it. Zane is interested in the departed realm, hearing that Morro is from it (even if it's not in the most pretty ways), it intrigues him to learn more about the former ghost, and how he may see his father one day. More Info underneath the cut!
Morro's literal backstory Once an elemental master dies they can not only see their family in the departed realm, but if they are not blood related nor can remember their family (cough cough, Zane), they can also meet the departed elemental masters that came before them. The little groupings of elemental masters hold great power, having the ability to traverse the 16 realms but regarded as something different than a ghost, more similar to a peaceful spirit or aura passing by. Unable to be seen by the living, sometimes depending on their mental will having the ability to converse in dreams and visions. When Morro finally get's sent to the Departed realm, as an orphan and being 50+ years old he cannot simply remember his family, so he get's sent and transported to the elemental grouping of Wind Masters. They don't like him. And so after a rather horrid argument the elders, the first elemental master of wind (FMOF), decides to send them down to never-realm, being previously used as a waste deposal of other Elemental Master's (more than just wind) that have gone "rogue" in the Departed Realm. The FMOF graced some mercy to Morro, convening with one of the form masters in order to see that they could return him in some sort of ghostly form, if they sent them down there as is, it would result him becoming living once more. Morro being the wonderous human (ish) being he is stumbles across this conversation, eaves dropping and taking notes. So when the final ritual(?) takes place he lashes out and does his best to ruin the spell, the only thing being that: 1. It works 2. He's not alive, and instead, has been merged with the storm. There he goes barreling down into the artic wasteland that provides an abundance of wind and storms to command, but despite the feast-like appearance of power and his element, Morro knows and regards this as a banishment. Dude got banished from death itself.
How Zane is connected in any of this Being also wonderfully banished and sent to the Never-Realm (via: Aspheera, Nacho Snake lady) he is also lost on his way. The only canon divergence or well difference being, when he's holding a staff he can feel another, stronger, rivaling, presence. Zane tries his best to fix the mech and eventually get's memory wiped by Vex. Back to the main plot line Morro additionally the counteracting sensation of another elemental power, and although it's not as strong as he isn't a master of Spinjitzu, he still senses it and decides to drift off on a storm cloud in that direction. Reaching the cave just when Zane plugs himself into the mech, disregarding the staff in general (in this AU I don't think young Wu would've told him about it), being confused in the slightest before getting a rush of Lloyd's memories he intercepted during possession of the titanium ninja, and dashing away behind the mech when he hears Vex's footsteps. Watching the whole exchange happen before his eyes, he decides to step in at the last moment, using his cool (very new) lightning powers. Being a somewhat super battle with the staff that he's honestly wonders how the ninja got a hold of, and his amplified form. During the exchange he does lay hands upon the staff and his powers go A-wire, somewhat breaks space and time, smacks Zane in the noggin to regain select memories. Vex fleeing the scene and barely recovering Zane prying Morro; who's form and right hand is practically melding into the staff, away from the supercharged stick. Although both mutually dislike each other they suppose they are both in the predicament of needing company for the days, weeks, and unbeknown to them, years to come. Morro not knowing how robotics or in general any mechanics in Zane works, opts for the: I'll just sit here and regret my decision as my partial robot friend has a reoccuring flashbacks for several decades while having an ongoing existential crisis I am little help to. Zane does believe Morro holds some interesting tales and description on, why and specifically how both are here. Morro just thinking it's something he can do to make up for acts, probably go see Lloyd (despite him probably bolting as soon as he see's the green gi), and maybe just maybe get somehow reaccepted back into the departed realms.
I like your hair
I think if the og4 polycule ever became a thing it would happen in the messiest way possible. Like there are any number of ways it could go down but let’s say for arguments sake it happens like this: Cole and kai get together first. Jay immediately becomes irritated and bitchy and is constantly complaining that they need to get a room when they are doing literally anything within touching distance of each other, and it’s not because he’s jealous it’s just that it’s totally unfair because he’s had a crush on Cole for forever and now Kai just steals him? And seeing them together is leading to a whole rush of new feelings towards the second person in that relationship that he’s not willing to look at too closely because that will just complicate things further which is the last thing he needs so instead he just directs all his irritation at kai until literally everyone is pissed off at him. And then Cole is with Kai and happy about that but also feeling a bit guilty because he’s been aware of his crush on zane for ages and even if he’s with Kai now and likes Kai a lot that crush hasn’t exactly… gone away even though it’s clear by now that he’s never going to reciprocate and does that make him a bad boyfriend? Is he an awful person should he try avoiding zane will that help? And then he tried that and on no that just makes the aching hole in his chest worse and now Jay’s constantly snippy with him too and he can’t figure out what he’s doing wrong and he’s certain that it’s somehow going to end in all the people he cares about most hating him. Kai is somehow winning most normal about all this prize by being willing to acknowledge that he probably has a crush on everyone at least a little bit and not being upset with himself for it but also if any of the others got together without him he Would Not take it well lmao. And then Zane’s watching all of them pair off and form attachments like ‘wow… it’s so great that all my friends care for each other and love each other so deeply. :) it’s so great that they all have these feelings for each other that they will surely one day work out and reciprocate and then I will forever be on the outside because there is an invisible pane of glass separating me from the rest of the world and surely they could never feel the same way about me :).” And then he never voices any of this out loud obviously. Because he has problems
"you look stupid in that." "i thought you liked green?"
i had.a thought about mr e's outfit from s8e1
Summary: Morro chooses an… interesting Halloween costume.
Warnings: fake blood descriptions?
Prompt: Halloween | Death | Costume
Extra: You know the drill, it's set in a generic "Revived Morro Lives w/ the Ninja" AU, between Seasons 10 and 11.
"So, how's my costume?" Morro asked smugly.
The Ninja stared silently. Lloyd's mouth was open in silent horror.
"You're all speechless, I count this as a win."
"No, Morro," Kai muttered, a horrified quiver in his tone, "We are not speechless in a positive way."
The green face paint on Morro's face wrinkled into a frown, also shifting the contour that made his cheeks look deathlike and hollow. He adjusted the collar of a ragged gi fashioned after the one he wore as a ghost. His badly trimmed nails scraped at the bandages, which were stained to look realistically dirty, and patches of fake blood were visible on certain parts of them.
All in all, it was a terrifyingly accurate Halloween costume of his ghost form.
"...is there something wrong with it?" the ex-ghost cosplaying as himself questioned.
"You dressed as your dead body," Nya deadpanned.
"No, I dressed as my cursed soul," Morro corrected. "Samuel is dressed as my dead body."
"W-who's Samuel?" Jay hesitantly asked.
Out of seemingly nowhere, Morro brought a plastic skeleton with a burnt crude version of Morro's gi, along with a bad wig of Morro's hair. "This is Samuel."
Lloyd broke into hysterical laughter, causing the Other Ninja to giggle as well.
