Howdy!

This is a redo of my pinned bc my old one was outdated

Hello! My name is Rook, I use he/him pronouns, and I have been a Ninjago fan since S1 released. I fell in and out of fandom and watching the show over time, but I'm here and have been so for a good few years now (and am fully caught up!) so I'm here to stay!

My favorite things to do here include writing, making longwinded character/show analysis essays, and reblogging shitposts and cool fanworks made by other ppl and my friends!

I have an AO3 where I post all of my works and also post links to new fics and updates on my writing process here

If you couldn't tell by the name, I am a Jay fan bc that mfer is just me fr. I am also a huge fan of Nya, Lloyd, Ronin, Misako, Harumi, Garmadon, Sora, and Pixal!

I am an owner of a concerning amount of OCs (by time of posting count is approximately 50) so if you ever see me referencing them or writing about them feel free to ask questions. Note: I am not responsible for the tangents this will send me on

I have some tagging systems:

[name] tag - tag for moots/friendos

#rook rewatches (possession, skybound, hands of time) - when I was rewatching these seasons in 2023, I did some liveblogging! Stopped at HoT because I finished watching the rest of the series with some friends

#rook's lego addiction - my brother bought me Jay's Dragon EVO for Christmas in 2022 and it's been downhill since

#rook reads ninjago - I've liveblogged myself reading some of the supplemental ninjago material, here's where that's stored! it's very... interesting

#mt's notes on elemental powers - a personal fanon project wherein I explain my interpretation of elemental powers (mainly ones I made up but likely will expand to canon)

9, 21, and 58 for Jes please?

Thank you for the ask!!!!

9. Do they cheat to win or play by the rules?

Jes is actually the type of person who bends the rules to win, so while technically not cheating, she's also not completely playing by the rules.

But in times where it is absolutely dire that Jes must win (for whatever reason) she is not above cheating.

21. What's one secret of theirs that could potentially ruin a relationship they have?

I'm going to go back to when Jes was ages 10 to about 13 for this one, because at that time it wasn't known that she was the Elemental Master of Death, just that someone was.

And since Jes can duplicate herself due to her water powers, it was very easy for her to hide that she was the EM of Death. And there's a big difference in her personality between the two (with her hiding the majority of it due to not really feeling like the true EM of Death at the time).

But at this point she has quite a few friends, plus someone (Derek) who's starting to become like a brother to her.

And then as the EM of Death, she starts having romantic for the current EM of Dark Lightning, Kayden, who is also supposed to hide that he is an EM for similar reasons (except that he can't duplicate his body, so it's harder for him)

So yeah, when the majority find out, it gets pretty tough.

58. If they could change one thing about their life, what would it be?

She'd change it so that she wouldn't lose pretty much everyone in her family when she was nine.

This way she'd still have everyone she loved, she wouldn't be the EM of Death, and maybe her mom wouldn't hate her as much as she does.

WIP Challenge!

Rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous.  Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it!  And then tag as many people as you have WIPs.  I have deemed that this isn’t just for writing either.  Sketch titles?  Comics?  DnD campaigns?  If you have an unfinished project, it counts!!
