There's something that I've been talking about a lot about ninjago that I'm finally going to bring up here, and that is the fact that Garmadon might be 2 separate people now.

In season 8 episode 7, Harumi tells Lloyd: "When your father is reborn, he won't be the man you recognize! His soul will be gone and I want his cold hands to destroy you!"

Whenever I've watched this season I've always taken it as the revival of Garmadon being only the oni part of him being revived (or like the evil part of him that existed from the GD bite). I didn't think much on this until after watching DR s3 with all the merged lands, including the Departed Realm, are merged together.A

I know this will be brought up so I will talk about it now but yes, the Preeminent was defeated in s5 but as we've seen with Djinago, I doubt that It's gone forever and probably exists somehow someway. This also ties into the fact that if the Cursed Realm really did disappear for good then Harumi wouldn't have been able to bring any part of Garmadon back, right?

The last we've seen of Garmadon before s8, he was in the Cursed Realm as Sensei Garmadon in s5 but before that he was traded in for the generals in s4. Garmadon didn't actually die in s4, he was just traded. if Harumi only brought back the Oni side of him, then where the other half? And because he never actually died then how would a resurrection actually work.

So with DR and the merged realms I've been having this idea of both Garmadons existing, one of the resurrected s8 version and one of whatever wasn't brought back, aka Sensei Garmadon.

Thinking about when before I had come out I was going to have my senior quote be "be crimes do gay" and my teacher pulled me aside and said to change it because it might be offensive to gay people

The days blur together while Lloyd sits on the front porch of the monastery, and waits for the sky to split open and bleed purple so he can nurture it back to the beautiful blue he admires

72 hours after the merge and cell towers were still down, and access to the internet was but a dream. If you wanted to talk with someone, you had to get up on your own two feet and go looking for yourself, not knowing if the person you were looking for was a neighborhood or a realm away.

He marched into Ninjago City in his brilliant green gi looking for his family, only to be bombarded with panicked crowds of people. Many scrambling to find loved ones or raiding stores for supplies. He was shoved and pushed around and for a moment he didn’t even recognize the city he grew up protecting. He was instantly recognized and adults and children alike ran to him for answers, for help…. And hope.

He sweated, choked on his words, and cowardly fled the scene. He couldn’t lead them, he couldn’t bare to be a figure head when he himself had so many questions and feelings left unresolved.

Hours turned into weeks but he couldn’t tell if it felt like days or months. He hesitated when he couldn’t remember if Kai left the monastery to search for their family three days ago or a week ago. Shame was written over his heart, much like when he abandoned his duties after Nya’s passing.

He passed the time by cleaning, it was always the thing that gave him a sense of normalcy whenever he craved it. His home was filled with bittersweet memories and keepsakes from his family, he felt a responsibility to protect their home, it was the least he could do.

72 hours after Kai left the monastery, Lloyd found a camera after digging in a closet. He powered it up and dug into the footage, reliving the days from his past, the ones before the merge. It was all too bitter and sweet all the same, and his tears fled from his eyes.

72 hours after he found that camera, he couldn’t bare to see it collect dust on the coffee table where Kai and Cole spend hours playing video games. He grabbed the camera, dressed himself in anything but green, and left the monastery for the first time in weeks.

He marched toward the city but was stopped in his tracks. It almost felt like possession, and in some way, it did feel like fear had possessed him.

He couldn’t bare to take another step, but he could raise his camera, and so he snapped a picture of Ninjago City in the distance. He hid behind the lense, and only then could he face what his home— his world, has become.

He kept his distance, out of sight out of mind he thought, as he snapped pictures of the city streets, raided stores, and crowds of people looking for loved ones.

He hid behind the lense for so long he nearly became a myth, and when Wyldfire came to him with a shoebox full of those photos, he brought his hands to his chest, instinctively wanting to snap a photo and remain behind those lenses.
