Out Of Faith

stop what you’re doing and watch this

THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING DAY 1

After i noticed I couldn't see anything else

Sorry to be crude but his furry sixpack and chest + his blue blade things look like dick and balls

YOOO THIS IS SICK

The second, and newer version is ready for the visor!!! :D

Everything is symmetrical finally and no longer falling apart sjdhd. Lots of love to my prototype for surviving being taken apart and put back together THREE TIMES during this 😭🙏

Still got a LONG way to go but it's going great for a first ever prop build 🫶

(I had this in my drafts for half a year i forgor)

CRACKHEAD THEORY RANT TIME

(plus dive into Ras'plans??)

People, I'm putting my money's worth on Ras'master being the First Spinjitzu Master!

So i can't rant nicely now but look:

Grasslands vibe!!4!

And the place where Ras'master teleported the dojo

Also it's clear that it's someone/something with great power if they can just do that.

And my theory on it being a source dragon has been buried with s2pt2(cause of the dead "balance" source dragon), so if not a source dragon then what. Well, eighter a new powerful character or FSM.

Also the color theme is very much Golden for the master...

As why he can't communicate normally is an intresting question.

Cause he speaks in morse code or broken toaster with Ras.

Maybe the merge fucked with his ability to communicate or smth(more on this below)

More reasons and Ras plan dissection contain SPOILERS for s2pt2 under!

We now know the goal of Ras and the Master:

To reverse the merge

(and all of this, somehow through the Sources, maybe capturing or even killing them, as we now know)

Sounds intresting, considering it doesnt exactly makes sense rn. Like, i get it, the merge was made to be prevented, it shouldn't have happened, but the merged lands are mixed right now. I don't even know how you could separate them anymore.

So obviously, the FSM was the first to want to prevent the merge, with the help of the Sources. He also created multiple standalone realms.

We also know, Wu had something to do with the eruption of the merge. Now its probable he didn't cause it directly and on purpose, since he was looking like he wanted to prevent it. My guess, maybe he was searching for the Dragon Cores and use them similarly of how Lloyd later fixes the merge quakes. And the origin of the merge is tied to the early Spinjitzu family, or just the FSM.

"Too soon"

So he did know it will come, just way more later.

But obviously:

So he didn't tell anyone but he probably knew this might happen all along cause his daddy told him... Oh Wu when will you learn

The last thing he tells Lloyd is:

"Remember, family is key"

Is also very intresting...

Another note, circling back to the idea that the FSM can't communicate properly is the exact same situation with Wu!

He is audiably struggling to talk to the ninja and barely speaks words.

So what if the merge affected the whole early Spinjitzu family (excluding Lloyd ofc). We don't know anything of Garmadon as of now tho, but he could be in a similar position.

Wu lives with this mistake he had a part in, but i doubt it's simple. It's probably the FSM's fault to begin with, as the possibility of realms colliding came after he created multiple more.

The reason why Ras' Master can't be Wu(plus he might doesn't even know the FSM did seek help from Ras) is simple. He is definetly not powerful enough to transport the Shadow Dojo. We haven't seen his full powers, but seeing him in this weakened spirit state is pretty much enough to prove that.

Another thing. He led the ninja to this location:

Which leads to the Monasteries in each realm. (Or just the 16 monasteries, since there seems to be both one in Imperium and one in The Land of Lost Things, which were in the same realm)

Ultimately this could be to warn them about the forbidden five's plans. Which doesn't contradict anything, the Forbidden Five has no intrest in Ras' plan, nor the Source dragons. But they can definetly complicate things.

But i am not sure if Wu has anything to do with Ras' plan or master as of now, but i can't explain it why. He may have, I don't know...

Also:

You guys think the Cauldron of Realms is the place Wu led the ninja to?

It doesn't look, cauldron-y but it definetly leads to all realms... And the place was referred to as a Monastery so maybe unlikely.

...

Anyways i'd love to hear your thoughts on this theory!

And with s3 around the corner this might change

I think Morro coming back will definetly have to do with whatever happened to the Departed Realm. It has been said by Doc that it will be explored how death works in the Merged Lands now.

So my theory, Morro will be there and the team ends up finding/searching for the new Departed Realm and run into Morro. Maybe he will be the one to explain how it all works now after the merge idk.

Its important to note, Morro isn't shown to be hostile in the set image so that could mean he's helping the team.

for art requests could you draw ras maybe…

:)

The burn on Arin was so severe he reverted to his edgy phase

I haven't drawn anthros in ages so now i have to delete my search history...

Click for suprise version 🤫

Yeah. And the quote we once found "cringe":

"Ninja never quit"

Has helped me a lot of times as well (even recently) and i'm not ashamed to admit it :)

We can make fun of Ninjago’s lessons all we want however I would be lying if I’d say I haven’t repeated “When there is no calm outside of you find the calm inside of you” during stressful situations (exams) and that it didn’t helped.

Rewatching ninjago is the ultimate way to heal the soul after a semester that left you with barely half a working braincell

Kindof a s2pt2 spoiler, but i just connected a song to a character in s2pt2

That im probably(definetly) gonna draw 😶‍🌫️

Numb by Linkin Park is just soo s2pt2 Arin change my mind

(it's what he thinks of himself and what others around him (don't) think of him)

Heard it on the radio this morning and i immediatley thought of him:

,,I've become so numb, I can't feel you there

Become so tired, so much more aware

I'm becoming this, all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

Can't you see that you're smothering me?

Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control

Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

And every second I waste is more than I can take

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me, with someone disappointed in you"

*(Our boi is delusional)*

(and Lloyd is in denial, so also delusional)
