✨captivated✨
🔽redraw of an old art I did last year🔽
everyone say THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH to @finn-m-corvex for the tired accountant jay idea who fixes coffee machines with his powers 3 times a day and shouts at sharon for overusing the printer <333
doing normal stuff while listening to metal is so funny because I'm eating cereal and this guy is screaming at me
Lego Ninjgai
Lego ninjago with your eyes closed
lets talk about how traumatized this random citizen who thinks he watched cole fall to his death probably is
i put this on my last acc but uh, the idea that lighting was an element that belonged to wojira
wind, water, and lightning elements have nightmares of wojira, who wants her powers back. Lightning ems have it the worst, wind ems are okay??? and water ems are in between
Libby had these nightmares and she was kinda becoming insane. Jay had already been born and Cliff was scared that Jay might get hurt due to Libby not being in the right state of mind. Knowing, however, that Jay would probably get these insanely realistic nightmares too one day, they were also fearing for others' saftey. So they dropped Jay off at with a couple who lived far away from Ninjago city, the Walkers.
Jay grew up with them and actually didn't get these nightmares until later on in his life, which was around age 9. I also hc Jay to have protothestic legs due to a car accident. After recovering, thats when he got the first nightmare. He never told anyone and he'd usually forget about it later on due to his tendancy to make jokes and stuff, distracting him from the dreams. This is also around the time he started zapping himself when he slept. However, around the 5th season, Lloyd getting possessed, Zane having recently "died", blah blah, he kept dreaming of them. This serpent kept replaying memories of it happening and stuff.
When skybound came along, everything went downhill. Basically everything got worse, he couldnt go a night without having those dreams, and Wu, noticing how Jay would act, remembering how Libby acted, gave him some magic tea. It was the same tea that blocked Libby's nightmares for a while. Basically, it blocked the user's ability to have any dreams. At all. No dreams means no Wojira. Libby used to take it when she was younger. But she stopped due to her actually being allergic to the tea leaves. Lucky for Jay, it worked. He got the tea around season 10, because he was just so anxious during that time (cole fell, the skybound mural just reminding him of all that trauma, etc). So Wu was easily able to tell something was wrong. Now, it's a thing he takes every 5 days.
Thanks for listening to my ted-talk.
Anyone who talks about Jaya with kids and says that Nya would not be the dad and Jay would not be the mom are wrong. Full-stop.
Jay is the one driving the soccer mom minivan. He is the one who is making sure that everything is packed correctly and no, Nya, he did not play ten years worth of Tetris for you to pack the car like a fucking lunatic. Everything must be rearranged to fit in as tightly as it possibly can. The cooler must be left accessible.
Nya is also definitely the parent who passes on the responsibility of saying no.
Kid: Mama, can I eat candy for dinner?
Nya: did you ask your father?
Jay: No! You cannot have candy for dinner!
Everyone says that Jay would be the one to indulge his kids but I honestly think it would be Nya. She didn't have parents growing up, and she had to grow up really fast, so she would want her kids to have as much fun as possible when they're young.
On the other hand, Jay recognizes the gaps in his upbringing, and wants to try and be a good dad. He's old enough to recognize that a lot of the discipline his parents did was good for him and that kids need it in their lives, even if he would love to indulge them like Nya does.
So yeah, give me tired and stressed stay-at-hom soccer mom Jay who drives a minivan and loves it. Give me chill as fuck dad Nya who lets pretty much anything fly and would probably join in your shenanigans.
