Ninjago Season 8 - Blog Posts

Awww , my cutie is trying to be a bad boy :D How sweet =3

Ok so I remember hearing that the season 14 villains were a tribe that used storm magic (i’m unsure if this is 100% confirmed though cause i’m lazy) and i was causally rewatching season 8, as Harumi stans do, and as they were flying through a storm Nya tells Jay that there was an ancient tribe that worshipped a storm spirit called “Wohira” and now all i can think is that’s gonna be the tribe in season 14

So, you guys know those cosmetic surgery vids right? The ones plastic surgeons make analysing celebrities? Well, since the ninja technically qualify as celebs-

There are definitely discussions like that about him. Let's just face it, this looks like a whole new person.

What usually do Hellspawn when his dad suffer the consequences of his adventures?

If he's injured or just are like, sad or then Morro with nightmares

She does something specific?

I love your au!

For nightmares or when he's sad, she has this thing where she snuggles up to him and pats his chin, saying absolutely nothing. And it kind of works. Lloyd's eyes widen for a while until he eventually relaxes. It really grounds him. It reminds him that he's here and not wherever his dreams convinced he was.

She did just that when he was moping around about Harumi and when she realized he wasn't feeling the greatest after banishing her grandpa in s4.

But with Morro, it usually doesn't help much. He has all these dreams about his possession causing him to hurt everyone he cares about so he'd like to keep himself as far away from his offspring as possible for the first hour since waking up from that. Healing takes a while.

When he's hurt and in forced bed rest, she usually ends up sitting by him and just staring because Aunt Pixal & Uncle Zane are like "it's not advisable to jostle anything at the moment." She eventually got the idea to make him a get well soon card and set to work.

One time, they ran out of paper so she decided to scribble a 'get better soon' on his face when he was sleeping. She meant well but yeah Pixal was not amused. When Lloyd woke up, he spent ten minutes wondering why the heck everyone else was cackling.

Glad you like the AU!

Legend says the First Spinjitzu Master never had a wife to father his two sons, having created them with the gold running through his veins.

As his unwilling successor, Lloyd sometimes wishes he'd known that piece of information sooner.

Or; Lloyd accidentally creates a kid before s3 and ends up balancing both the life of a ninja and raises a mini him through the seasons.

So uh, I have both good news and bad news.

The good news is, the hellspawn au is finally getting its first multi-chaptered fic. I'm planning on doing one per season following the spawning (it's still weird using that word lol even a year later) of our dear hellspawn. And since I started this AU last year with a tumblr post of Season 8, I guess it's only fair that's the season for the first fic as well.

So, you're getting some chapters about Lloyd's sub-par-but-trying-his-best parenting skills, a chaotic mini him, the other ninja trying their best to be helpful & Harumi being the walking red flag no one wants to acknowledge but her dad is head over heels for.

The bad news is uh...(you're all gonna hate me for this 😭) her name isn't starting with L.

Ok, so i know that we already established that hellspawn hates harumi with a burning passion. But i need more than that.

How is their dynamic?

Does harumi still tries to "connect" with her only for her to retort with an impressive amount of sass for a 4yo? Does she think of how when all of this is over she will bash that brat's head into a wall?

Does hellspawn cling to her daddy's leg and give her death glares in every possible situations? Does she try to prevent any "romantic" moment/chemistry between the two?

And after harumi is revealed and the ritual "failed" is she going "I told you so" to literally everyone? Does she try to comfort lloyd saying stuff like; "you can't be sad because of her daddy thats what she want" or "there are far better possible mommies out there" or maybe even "im pretty sure she snores in her sleep anyway"

And lastly will there ever be a situation (maybe in s16?) That suddenly golden blond hair becomes long platinum braids, eye color becomes one she saw in the mirror every day, and even the scared look on her face became suddenly painfully familiar as harumi watched for mere few seconds as the green ninja's daughter image was replaced with her younger self

I have to say...that this is by far, my favorite ask from you.

I think Harumi would still try to connect with her, even though their dynamic is initially , 'seemingly nice princess tries every possible way to make a wary child as comfortable as possible in her presence' — I'm saving most of the sass for s16, when hellspawn's only sees this woman as a psycho.

But for s8, (at first) it's more like she's clinging to Lloyd's leg looking visibly uncomfortable. She knows that something is off, but she can't tell what. The ninja don't see anything wrong, and neither does Lloyd. Maybe she's shy. Or maybe the princess' makeup is scary. That's probably why she's acting like this.

Then in Dead Man's Squall, we get to see the death glares thing, which Lloyd reprimands her for when they're alone. The other ninja think it's cute because it just looks like she's jealous of the attention the princess is getting. And when Lloyd tries to stand beside Harumi in the control room, hellspawn reaches for his hand. She doesn't like it when her father and the Harumi are alone in the same room and FSM does something feel off.

But fortunately, after Dread on Arrival, Lloyd finally apologizes to her for dismissing her suspicions. We get to see some father-daughter comfort after that but it's mostly hellspawn doing the comforting because her dad just got himself some trust issues and a broken heart.

"And lastly, will there ever be a situation (maybe in s16?) That suddenly golden blonde hair becomes long platinum braids, eye color becomes one she saw in the mirror every day, and even the scared look on her face became suddenly painfully familiar as harumi watched for mere seconds as the green ninja's daughter image was replaced with her younger self."

YOUR MIND. OH DAMN, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT

To answer that one, there should be. I hate Harumi's redemption arc in crystalized but it would be nice to see this lol — especially because, now that I think of it, hellspawn does look a lot like Harumi. Even though this woman's prepared to make this girl's dad's life a living hell and throttle his midget, I can see this happening. Maybe these two could get into a situation where Harumi has to choose whether to save this child or let her die. Or maybe the Overlord needs her for something — she was created with Lloyd's Golden Power, you know. Gosh, I love this. Thanks for the idea!

Hellspawn au because i refuse to let it die

In s8 was hellspawn also needed for the ritual?

I imagain so

And if so, how did they get her did the sog took her in the midst of the crabby fight? Maybe even used her to lure lloyd to the bounty to capture him (even tho we know he would have done so anyway)?

Makes you think how much darker it would make everything from the way back to the castle to the ritual itself considering the fact that this poor, tiny, 4-5 year old girl was there for the whole thing, probably scared out of her mind and threatened constantly with her dad and grandma only being able to watch and not able to actually comfort her on top of everything else thats happening and OMG this is some real angst material

...why didn't I think of that? I— I —

And yes, hellspawn was involved in the ritual. It wouldn't make sense if she wasn't involved in it otherwise — she's literally Garmadon's grandchild. I don't know why my brain even forgot that crucial detail.

So timing-wise, she was taken during the giant crab fight — when the crab burst out of the river in the first place. The commotion was enough for Ultra Violet to grab her on Harumi's orders. Kai notices it, and yells at everyone to stop her, which of course, leads to one-brain-celled Lloyd Spinjitzuing his way onto the bounty — which then leads to his inevitable capture. Harumi successfully kills two birds with one stone...everything is going according to plan.

They reach the Palace of Secrets with two hostages. Lloyd begs Harumi to keep the girl out of this but of course, Harumi doesn't give a shit. Lloyd gets put into his cage like he originally does, and Misako is horrified that her granddaughter has been captured as well. So since Harumi's insurance policy only has room for two cages, hellspawn gets put somewhere else; in one of the secret passageways that survived the SOG's attack on the palace. It's a small space with pitch black darkness. Really a one-way ticket to claustrophobia.

Lloyd doesn't shut up for even a second during his stay in his cage, shouting himself hoarse as he demands to know what the hell they've done with her. The same goes for Misako, but of course, Harumi's a sadistic bitch. It doesn't matter to her.

Can't believe that these live in my head while starring the most hurtful line in Ninjago history.

Lloyd comes home with his report card: Dad, I failed Chinese—

Garmadon: I have no son.

........................

Lloyd, comes out as trans: I don't think I belong in this body, Dad.

Garmadon: I have no son.

.....................................................

Garmadon: I have no so—

Lloyd interrupts him: But you still owe me about nineteen years of child support—and yes, the Tomorrow's Tea actually counts.

...........

Bonus,

Garmadon: I have no son.

Also Garmadon moments later: picks up Christofern.

Cole is the best daddy ever ♥
