#Ninjago age regression

[jacksdinonuggets]

Do you have any hcs about movie lloyd being a little? Like what hes like regressed and stuff.

Hmm, yeah probably, but it's not gonna be too long because that small hyperfixation thing lasted like 3 hours the other day.

Lloyd probably regresses around 2-8

He loves dragons and collects jellycat dragon stuffed animals

Koko and his friends are his caregivers!

He likes to play games and have fun. He's not usually one to want to cuddle and sleep all day.

He uses teethers and sometimes paci's when he's really small!

He's not allowed to train or go on missions when he's little, but that doesn't stop him from trying! and usually ending up in timeout.

since he is literally like ganged up on by an entire city, he needs something to help cope with that. Which is actually how he started regressing! he hated constantly being bullied and just wished his dad was a normal guy but he needed to cope with these feelings.

that's all I really have for now. You can ask me more specific questions if you want later

KAI SMITH flip (caregiver-leaning!)

Kai Ninjago Smith is ABSOLUTELY an age regressor are you KIDDING me are you JOKING me. He is BASICALLY CANONICALLY an age regressor!!!!

"I bet he loves being treated like a baby..." (Nya, Season 14, Episode 6, Call From The Abyss)... Yeah he does because he IS a baby. He is THE baby. He is BABY.

His entire traumatic backstory is that, after his parents were taken from him from an early age, he had to step into a parental role for his little sister and become the adult of the family while still being a child himself. He had to grow up before he even really had a chance to grow at all. On-screen, we see that once his parents return and he's no longer forced into that role of responsibility, he canonically regresses into childish habits and language we have never before seen him use or display beforehand.

"Ham and cheese sandwiches with crispy bacon? Oh thanks, Mommy! You're the best! Mm... bacon is the best, too!" (Kai, Season 14, Episode 6, Call From The Abyss).

Conclusion? Kai Smith is the most age-regressor to ever age regress ever I will not take criticism because I am OBJECTIVELY CORRECT.

Anyway!! I think Kai is regresses from 5-9~ years old. We can tell from his diction that he doesn't seem to be a baby regressor (at least in this scene), as he's capable of fully-formed sentences and has the cognitive skills required to play video games, so that leads me to believe he might be a little-middlespace regressor! Kai's parents left when he was around 5, so it makes sense he wouldn't be an infant regressor, but around the little-middle spectrum, regressing into the same range of years in which he didn't have a chance to be a child before.

I don't just think he's an age regressor, though, I also think he's a flip, too! He definitely has some care-giving tendencies built-in to him from having to be a caretaker for his little sister for so many years, and so he pretty naturally slips into the role of a big brother caregiver! I imagine he leans more towards the caregiving side then the regressing side, just because being a caregiver is what he's used to being - what he's always had to be - but that may be prone to change as he becomes more comfortable with his regression! He hates regressing around the other age regressors, especially when they're regressed, because he feels like when they're small he has to be big and adult to take care of them regardless of his own headspace. We can see his caregiver tendencies displayed in... countless interactions with Lloyd. Speaking of...

LLOYD MONTGOMERY GARMADON age regressor!

I am, once again, OBJECTIVELY correct. Lloyd is basically canonically an age regressor. He IS canonically an age regressor. He is, quite literally, a child stuck in a teenager's body -- as in he was a child and then magic age-up tea turned his body into a teenager's but still left him with the mental capacity of a child. Which is the DEFINITION of what an age regressor is!! Bodily an adult but mentally a child!! He IS an age regressor!!!!

And even if that WASN'T the case, he'd probably be an age regressor anyway, because, like. Look at him. He had the weight of the world on his shoulders since he was, like, eight, was unable to be a child because he had to endure constant rigorous training and when he WASN'T training he was undergoing countless traumatic experiences while he was still a child.

Lloyd: Well...The latest issue of Starfarer just came in at Doomsday Comix and it's a limited run, so if I don't go out and get it, it's going to sell out. Last they left off, intergalactic rogue Fritz Donnegan was surrounded by the Imperial Sludge, and if I don't find out if he gets out alright, I think I might have my own doomsday! Kai: The fate of Ninjago rests on your shoulders. As the Green Ninja, you have a giant responsibility to hold. I'm sorry, but you don't have time for such childish things. Lloyd: Other kids get to play and have fun. All I ever do is train...(Season 2, Episode 18, Child's Play)

I don't even think I need to argue my case that hard for why Lloyd is an age regressor. I think it'd be harder to argue why he ISN'T an age regressor, actually. TRY to argue that he's not an age regressor. TRY. I BET you CAN'T.

I don't have much evidence for this one, but I imagine he may be a pet regressor, too! He's an oni-dragon-hybrid, after all, and his heritage have proven to come with strong instincts regarding this animalistic half of his genes, as seen throughout the Oni Trilogy. Even if he doesn't have any physical traits, it's likely he at least has psychological ones. I imagine he growls, gnaws on things, et cetera!

COLE BROOKSTONE caregiver!

Look at him. JUST LOOK AT HIM. The most caregiver to ever caregive ever forever. He has chronic can't-stop-adopting-children syndrome. He's adopted, like, three separate children at this point. It is becoming a problem.

"Huh? Oh, no. Don't make that face. Don't cry. Oh, I can't take it any more. Hey, look at me. Hehe. Yeah. I'm not sad. Ha-ha, I'm not crying. Oh, fine. But this is between you and me. Shine, little glow worm, glimmer glimmer. Hey there, don't get dimmer, dimmer. You like that, huh? Well, there's more where that came from. Glow, little glow worm. Glow and Glimmer—" (Cole, Season 8, Episode 5, Dead Man's Squall)

When his mentor canonically (mentally & physically) regressed into an infant his first and immediate instinct was to adopt and care for them. If that isn't agere caregiver behaviour I don't know WHAT is. HE BECAME THE FATHER TO AN INDIVIDUAL REGRESSED FROM THEIR NORMAL HEADSPACE INTO A CHILD.... HE'S LITERALLY A CAREGIVER GUYS!!!!!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE YOU WANT ME TO SAY!!!!!!! I AM JUST STRAIGHT-UP CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!

JAY WALKER padded regressor!

Jay: Aah! [He picks up a ruined stuffed toy.] Mister Cuddlywomp… [sobs] is a teddy bear I used to love when I was five, but now he's totally lame and—

Cole: We know you still sleep with him.

Jay: And I don't care who knows it! Mister Cuddlywomp... (Season 7, Episode 6, The Attack)

Jay Walker is DEFINTELY a regressor. His personality has been noted to be very child-like and babyish at times, to the point where the fandom (and showwriters) tend to infantilize him, despite the fact that in his own right he can be a very serious character when he need be. As much as I do believe he's an age regressor, it's important to remember he can be very capable and competent character when he's big, too, and not to define him by his regression!

If he's any regressor, it's definitely a padded regressor. Throughout the show, it's become a running bit that he's a bedwetter and has a weak bladder:

Jay: But I don't wanna get wet. I...I only have one pair of underwear.

Kai: Jay, this is no time to be making jokes. The Bounty can only take so much.

Jay: You think I'm trying to be funny? (Season 2, Episode 9, The Last Voyage)

Harumi: Uh, forgive me, but is that... underwear?

Jay: We're usually more organized. Ahem. But our leader got lost in a time-stream. Uh, they're Cole's.

Cole: They're blue!

Kai: You're lucky they're not yellow. (Season 8, Episode 3, The Oni & The Dragon)

Jet Jack: Then tell us, who do these diapers belong to?

Kai: Oh, those are Jay's. Tell 'em, Jay.

Jay: Oh. I have a weak bladder. (Season 9, Episode 2, Iron & Stone)

These are only a few of many, many examples (You can find others throughout the show, such as in Only One Can Remain, The Darkness Remains, Darkness Within, etc) of this bit, and though it's usually spun as a joke, there's no harm and shame in it! I imagine the ninja do actually buy him diapers, and as much they tease and prod, they never actually judge him whenever he has an accident!

ZANE JULIEN caregiver!

"I was built to protect those who can't protect themselves!" (Zane, Season 3, Episode 8, The Titanium Ninja)

I don't know what else you want me to say guys... he said so himself.,,,,,,. was built to protect those who can't protect themselves...,.....

Zane's entire identity is hinged around adaptability. Though I could go on a WHOLE 'NOTHER ESSAY about Zane's relationship with identity, the point here is that he often adapts to what people need him to be! I mean, he downloaded thousands pieces of detective media onto his hardware in order to try to track down the other ninja after they went missing, if called for I imagine he could very easily slip into the role of caretaker (he WOULD download hundreds of resources on age regression to help the other ninja)!

I don't have a lot of evidence for this one beside source: bro trust me but bro. trust me. The Vibes,,,, theyre there

These are just my personal headcanons based on evidence I've gathered from the show - I am in NO WAY saying these are the only headcanons or that they are the "correct" ones!! In fact, if you have DIFFERENT headcanons for the ninja (esp. ones I didn't provide a lot of detail for), I encourage you to share them in the tags, I'd love to hear other's opinions!!!! ^^

If this gets enough interested, I might make a pt. 2, so stay tuned!!

[dragon-queen21]

Agere Tier list

I asked for people to send me in characters and then I would rank them. This was open fandom so half of the characters I didn't know and simply went off of vibes. If you agree, awesome! Disagree or have something to add, feel free to reblog and ramble. Just please don't get angry at me is anything is super off

Characters and short explanations below: (If I had one, I kinda gave up half way on some so forgive me if these aren't my best)

Stardew Valley~

-Harvey: Caregiver! Tired dad vibes for real, who always drinking too much coffee. Little one giving him puppy dog eyes is just like ‘oh, you want some too?’ <- terrible idea, he’ll never learn /lh

Pokemon~

-Prof. Sycamore: Caregiver or babysitter, just because I feel like he would be quite forgetful. Like unless his little one has obvious tells that they are regressed (ie. Using a pacifier, slurred speech, different comfy clothes, etc.) He’s going to just forget, or just overlook it. Ah I don’t know how to put that. Like he’s still sweet and caring just… a bit silly me thinks

-Kaiwe: Flip, big brother regressor/caregiver

Animal Crossing~

-Bones (animal crossing): Toss up between being a babysitter known for spoiling the littles he looks after with treat and cuddles, or a regressor… I’m leaning more towards babysitter personally. Also I think he would help his little one in the making of putting on a puppet show;

-Isabell: Flip, regressor leaning

-Tom Nook: Babysitter. In the sense that he is very aware of those who regress on the island and gives them little tasks to in exchange for stickers or treats

Star Trek~

-Bones/ Leonard McCoy: Well maybe I am biased but caregiver coded. He just ahs a very dad vibe about him you know? Plus being a doctor and with a knowledge of psychology I just know he’d be familiar with what age regression is

Lego Ninjago~

-Lloyd: Regressor/ pet regressor He would be a little dragon. I think I remember Cole being scared of dragons in the pilot episodes, so umm he definitely sneaks up on the other, roaring and trying to scare him

-Kai: Flip, caregiver leaning. Super sweet. The kind of caregiver who thinks that most problems can be solved with ice cream and cuddles

-Nya: Flip caregiver leaning. I feel like she's regressed with her brother before either because he wanted a playmate, or just to be like there's nothing to feel bad about. So maybe that would put her more as an age dreamer... hmmm welp, too late to redo the list now XD

-Cole: caregiver, going off of the wiki here but the fact that he seems to be very parental to those younger than him. Hates letting his little one down, so even over the smallest detail he's going to make sure everything goes smoothly to the best of his ability

Genshin~

-Ayato: I was going to say caregiver, but upon further consideration, puppy regressor. Wants to be little with his sister around but also, no talking, he’s delt enough with people all day if he wants interaction then he’ll initiate it himself. And being in puppy space no need to talk, just woofs. Also because of his role the idea of ‘age regressing’ in the typical sense leaves a bad taste in his mouth

-Ayaka: Caregiver coded. Looks after her brother a lot but also just enjoys being able to still take care of someone but just with less pressure to do everything perfect. Healing in it’s own way. I think maybe she would age dream from time to time, but never fully regress

-Aether: To no ones shock at all, regressor. I want to say that back with his sister he was a flip and they would take care of each other but without his other half and way to much put on his shoulders he’s solely just a little one now

-Wriothesley: Puppy regressor, specifically a german shepherd or Doberman, or any other dog breed with ‘scary dog privileges. Thinks he’s the scariest little guy. His caregiver’s see him as their adorable pup.

-Venti: Caregiver who's the best with baby regressor's. They're his little wisp and he plays lullaby's for them and is just the best at settling down fussy little ones.

-Kaeya: Caregiver. He has the best stories to tell his little ones and he definitely spoils them rotten. Regressor so much as looks at something twice and he'll get it for them

-Diluc: Flip caregiver leaning + pet regressor. Something something being a wolf regressor. He would probably chomp on his brother's arm just to annoy him, but also love noms. Also like I have said waaaay too many times on my blog, he would just have a soft spot for little ones trust me.

-Albedo: Regressor & pet regressor. Never really had a real childhood so age and pet regression kinda blur within one another. Snow leopard regressor or a husky regressor. He can spend an abnormal amount of time out in the cold and is quite content in doing so.

Overwatch~

-Mercy: Caregiver Oooh big sister caregiver. Going purely off of vibes but I mean. She just feels like she would be great with baby regressors. Just to be swaddled in soft blankets and fluffy wings to protect you. Also adding wanting to look after her little ones in a way that she was never taken care if as a child

Ace Attorny~

-Maya: Pet regressor. She’s has a kitten space that’s always getting her into mischief.

AOT~ We are going off of vibes here purely because I don’t know the first thing about this series

-Armin Arlert: Toddler regressor or baby space regressor, I can't quite come to a decision. Curious kiddo who is so easily distracted by everything

-Eren Jaeger: Middle regressor, usually older than Armin, though I could also see him being a toddler in his terrible twos. Lot of temper tantrums/meltdowns when little because of having so many emotions just bubbling over the surface.

-Mikasa Ackerman: Oh yeah 100% caregiver coded. I was going to label all three as littles, but I just think she needs to look after someone just to heal from her own childhood. Also because her friends are all she has left she wants to make sure they're as happy and comfortable as possible

[jacksdinonuggets]

I have not seen any little Lloyd from the ninjago movie so I made a fic! Also, Koko is a way better mom than misako ever will be.

Lloyd was not having a good day. He was on the verge of tears. Stupid kids at school, stupid dad, stupid class! His brain was not working properly either! Everything was fuzzy and he could barely think properly. His dysphoria was also coming back to him whenever he saw his reflection. His hair was getting too long and it looked…feminine.

When the school bell rang, signaling the kids to leave the school, Lloyd could not be happier. Luckily, his dad didn’t attack that day but it was still stressful. His friends checked up on him during the day but it didn’t change much. He was mostly silent or would just push them away.

But the day just decided to get worse. The bus decided to leave without him and he needed to walk home now. His mom, Koko, wouldn’t be home for another 20 minutes so he couldn’t even call her to pick him up. So he walked home. His ribs ached due to his tight binder and feet hurt because he decided to wear sandals. 

When he finally got home, he skipped getting a snack. He didn’t feel like he could even make one. He sat on the couch for a bit and watched the news but it made him feel worse. It was like he forgot how to read but at the same time, could make out words.he was so frustrated with the turnout of his day that he stomped into his bedroom. 

His bedroom was pretty small. It had a loft bed and a desk underneath. It was against the wall so there was plenty of space in the room.

Lloyd couldn’t even make it to his desk before he crumbled. His knees hit the floor as the waterfall started. Tears flowed freely down his face. The pressure of the city was constantly weighing on him, the kids harassing him, and the stress of school was all coming out. He sobbed loudly while curled up in a ball in the middle of his room. He felt different. Like he was younger. He’s heard about this coping mechanism before and always wanted to try it but was too scared to. But now, the weight of the world was finally getting off his shoulders as he fell deep into littlespace for the very first time.

__________________________

When Koko walked up the stairs of the apartment building, she couldn’t help but feel like something was wrong. As she got closer to her apartment, the faint sound of a little kid crying could be heard.

“I hope that kid is okay” Koko thought. However, it got louder as she came closer. 

When she opened her door, the sobbing was its loudest. Thats when she realized that the kid crying wasn’t just any kid. It was her kid.

She quickly closed the door and threw her purse and stuff onto the couch before rushing to Lloyd’s bedroom in worry. A million thoughts plagued her mind. She opened her son’s bedroom door and immediately felt a mixture of feelings. Here she saw her son crying on the floor, tucked into a ball. She was glad he didn’t seem physically hurt, but something was clearing bothering him.

“Oh Lloyd, honey,” Koko sighed in sympathy. She knelt down to him and right when he realized she was there, he jumped into her lap and hugged her tightly, crying into her shoulder.

“Mama!” he bawled into her shoulder, knowing that he had regressed and was being extremely vulnerable with his mother. He didn’t care though. He wanted his mama.

“Shh, shh, its okay,” Koko comforted him in a soothing voice and rubbed his back. The childish voice was concerning but she decided to bring it up later.

The crying was muffled by Koko’s shirt and shoulder. She was extremely worried as he hasn’t cried this hard in years. As he calmed down and his sobs turned into soft crying, Koko noticed him bring his thumb up to his mouth and began to suck on it. 

Once he calmed down, he decided his mom needed an explanation.

“Mommy-, i mean, Mom. I- I’m sorry… for acting weird and babyish,” he took his thumb out and instead fiddled with with fingers.

“No, no, its not weird. I think i know whats going on,” she said.

“You- you do?”

“Yeah, you’re regressing. I know what is and i support you no matter what,” Koko ran her fingers through her son’s hair.

“T-tank you…” he dug his head into her chest and hugged her. 

“So, how old do you feel, sweetie?” 

“T-woo,” 

“Aww, alright. You can tell me what caused you to slip later. Do you want to take a nap for now? you look so tired,” she asked, looking at him.

“Yesh p’ease..” Lloyd was changed into some jammies by his mom and helped up into his bed. Koko did her best to tuck him in while standing on the ladder. When she got him down to nap, she snuck out of his room and into the kitchen. She sat at the table and opened up her laptop. She was going to do the best research and shopping she’s ever done. And it’ll all be worth it for her kid.

Lloyd woke up about two hours later. He was still feeling young but a little bit older. About 3 years old. He really needed to pee but couldn’t get down from his bed.

“Mama!” he yelled for his caregiver. It wasn’t long before Koko came in.

“I need to go potty!” 

Koko quickly helped him down and just barely got him to the bathroom. As she waited outside the restroom door for him to finish up, she wondered if he would need any protection. It did take him a while to get fully potty trained when he was younger. She would ask him for his opinion later.

“Mama?” Lloyd called for her from behind the door.

“Yes, honey?”

“Cans you gets me..umm.. A new boxer?” he asked. His boxers he was wearing were a little damp since he didn’t exactly make it in time. He didn’t know why this was happening! He never really has bathroom issues! Maybe it was the regression?

“Of course, sweetie,” Koko said. She went to his room and got him a new pair. When Lloyd was done in the bathroom, his mom changed him into more casual clothes. She had already ordered him an adult pacifier but there was still a bunch of stuff she wanted to get him. But she would ask him before getting any type of protection, as it may make him uncomfortable.

“We’re gonna get you some little items, is that okay?” she said as she tied his shoes.

“Otay!” 

She held his hand as they walked to the car. She decided that they would go to the mall. That place had everything. When they got there, Koko made sure to get Lloyd’s opinion on the little items he wanted. He was excited to get all this new stuff and flapped his hands excitedly. They stopped by the clothing store and tried on a bunch of clothes. Lloyd seemed to really like the dinosaur, dragon, and space themed clothes. After that, he got to pick out his sippy cup and even a couple toys! Their final stop was a stuffed animal store. The employees didn’t really like the fact that he was there, but they still helped him out. Lloyd picked out a cuddly teddy bear. Koko was a little confused because the store had dragon stuffies and dino stuffies.

���I wike da texture better,” he explained when she asked. 

After he stuffed it, he picked out a dinosaur outfit for it. Even though Koko was a bit tight on money, she made an exception for him. Lloyd was always worried about their finances and the fact that he finally didn’t care about it, made Koko happy.

They stopped by a fast food place for dinner before going home. Lloyd ended up passing out on the car ride home while cuddling his new stuffy. So when they arrived back at the apartment, Koko carried him on her back and the bags from the mall in her hands. She was glad she still had the strength of lady iron dragon or else this would’ve been impossible. The sight of her Little finally getting the rest he deserved made her smile.

More about me/meet the artist thing?

[lilywily143]

Found another nice agere fic

Here <-

This is a small chapter that has Little!Kai with Cole as his main caregiver. It's very simple. It's Kai waking up for the morning as a little and Cole helping him get up.

Very wholesome <3

[carrots453]

hihi!! i'd like to see if i could request some kai (ninjago) agere headcanons? thank you in advance!!! ❤

yes ofc! I literally love him 🔥

❤️ Kai Smith (Ninjago) agere headcanons! ❤️

Kai is a flip! (caregiver lean)

🔥 Little Kai 🔥

regression age 3-8

main caregivers are Cole and Zane

jay is often his playmate

loves playing + hates when he has no one to play with

has a short temper, especially when little

following on from that, he would accidentally set so many things on fire during his tantrums that the other ninja had to start making his toys etc. out of vengestone

he needs reminders to use the bathroom sometimes but doesn’t wear diapers because they make him uncomfortable

he doesn’t always need a cg but it’s better for him to be supervised since he’s often getting himself into trouble

only uses pacis when he gets really eepy!/regresses to a younger age

his most common regression age is 4-7 meaning he can do some things himself but often spends his time clinging to cgs or waiting to be told what to do

🔥 Caregiver Kai 🔥

ends up caring for Lloyd the most often

he’s always trying to convince his little he’s a cool dad/big brother

does a lot of babying (unless his little is uncomfortable with it) cuz he’s always using nicknames like: baby, kiddo, bub, buddy etc.

if his little is padded he can usually change them with ease, he has experience from when he had to take care of his sister. (Not the same obvs but yk what I mean)

wants his little to have fun - takes them to mega monster amusement park when they’re good

kinda freaks out if his little cries - “noo, don’t cry.. not now please no!!” He says, trying to keep away from them

so he usually gets Zane to help with that

secretly finds lloyds tantrums adorable and has to keep himself from laughing.

tries to impress his littles with fire but has to be careful in case they try to set themselves on fire…

plays a bunch of games, peekaboo, hide and seek, Roblox.. you name it

when he’s playing hide and seek he pretends not to know where you are

whenever Lloyd gets anxious he tends to hide under tables so Kai has to come get him out - he bangs his head a lot and has to try not to swear
