#robot Jay

[bumblebeeenby]

I guess I’m calling this the Lightningbot AU now???

Basics:

- Ed and Edna wanted a child, and having access to all the scrap in the junkyard, made one of their own! They never told him what he was, because they didn’t want him to feel different.

- Jay booted up for the first time without a power source being added at all. His element powers him on its own. This baffled his parents at first, but they just went with it.

- Contact with vengestone causes Jay to shut down if he touches it, which the ninja chalk up to him passing out. The second vengestone is no longer in contact with his body, he reboots. Before he knows he’s a robot, he refers to this as a “freak vengestone allergy”.

- Jay finds out that he’s an android during Hunted, where a rough landing from the portal severely damages his body. The group struggles to repair him with their limited resources. A scrap of foil isn’t gonna fix your face, sorry Jay.

- Over the course of Hunted, he acts largely the same as he does in the original, and treats his robot body’s reveal as something funny and insists everyone just “go with the flow” and not worry about it. Meanwhile the others are OBVIOUSLY concerned, and wonder if the crash is making him malfunction. At some point he snaps out of it and it hits him all at once and he freaks out for real.

- Pixal knew the whole time, literally since S3, and never mentioned it because she assumed they all knew already. Queue Jay having flashbacks to all the little hints she dropped in previous seasons (ie: implying he may need “repairs” or a “tune-up” after a fight, which Jay would shrug off as her simply wording her concern awkwardly).

- When they make it back home, they cannot figure out how to recreate the artificial flesh on his body, and he goes home to the junkyard for repairs and confronts Ed and Edna.

- The “junkyard boy” insult hits him much harder after he finds out, and is extremely self-conscious about the fact he was literally built out of trash.

- He returns to the lighthouse out of guilt and brings Echo back home with him. They bond over being made out of actual garbage.

- His head is a plasma globe filled with a mess of electrical impulses that make up his brain. When people touch it, it acts like a plasma globe, and makes Jay feel odd things (tickling sensations, lavender smell, the taste of kale).

- Once he’s aware he’s an android, he can learn to “possess” other electronics with his element/soul. His mastery over electricity gives him an instinctual understanding of electronics and how they function, which has unknowingly contributed to his love of inventing.

- Much to everyone’s dismay, being a robot opens up a whole new world of puns and terrible jokes for Jay to abuse.

Ok, yeah, the Administration doesn't consider Zane a person, but simply a "machine", but I find it funny that they keep referring to him as a "nindroid"... with a word that Jay invented

And now I see with eye serene The very pulse of the machine A being breathing thoughtful breath A traveler betwixt life and death The reason firm the temperate will Endurance Foresight Strength and skill

ngl while i love the implications of the elemental masters there’s a criminal loss in the canon now that wu was just collecting the kids of his old friends. how dare they play down the utterly deranged nature of wu going “oh no… my brother is Returning…” and grabbing literally three random kids out of the suspiciously scenic countryside and then his (presumably dead) bffs’ son for shits n giggles. and it WORKED

au where theyre humans and work in an office/entertainment thing and theyre gay oooooo the world is my oyster

Lego pride stuffffsssss. I may still make more later containing more divisive ships (mostly Ninjago and Bionicle, mostly main cast ships, divisive only because of shipwars, no plans on including anything problematic), but here's the initial batch. Characters who are either: officially, canonically LGBTQIA+ (which wasn't many tbh), characters who are heavily implied to be (Cole), or characters that have been adopted by the fandom as LGBTQIA+ (Takanuva, Jetjack x Faith)

(Edit: in light of the LMK s4 special, I've added Peng!)

Anacondrai Curse drawings because I like this au a lot and I really need to draw more art for it

[the-first-spinjitzu-master]

Okay it’s 3am and I have to be at my first day of work at my new job in seven hours.. but I just had a THOUGHT.

So hear me out- Jay can control electricity. Obviously.

But has anyone else considered the idea of him being able to basically mind control other people?? Or hack their bodies?? Since humans literally run on electrical impulses??

Now I know Nya can’t draw the water out of his lungs, but that doesn’t mean that using your element inside someone else’s body is impossible. Maybe that’s just confined to other elemental masters. And of course I haven’t seen DR yet (two episodes away from finishing Crystallized!! I’ll have caught up with DR by this time next week for certain), but I’ve heard a lot of discussion about Jay coming back as a villain in S2… can you imagine how absolutely batshit of a villain Jay concept would be if he came back and just mind controlled people?? And it would totally tie into his cult leader antics as well (I’m still so sad that the League of Jays was pretty much abandoned after the first couple episodes… it was such a funny concept and could’ve actually been used for some fantastic plot/character development … but… alas :( )

Anyway. Basically all that to say I just got smacked in the face with a new Villain Jay idea and I’m soooo going to start using him for fic stuff. Maybe I’ll even tie it in to the AU concept I’ve been working on for a while.. maybe..

flexibility hcs: im 100% sure that jay and zane bond over a crazy amount of flexibility. I think both of them are so scarily flexible they freak out everyone with their weird contortionism.

Cole is flexible. Being raised as a dancer will do it to ya, but he didnt keep it up much so Jay is more flexible than him. (Jay also relies on his flexibility, agility, and speed more in combat to make up for strength)

Kai cant touch his toes.

Lloyd can, and he can do the splits, but painfully.

Alright! I finished all the Ninja! These are for body type and scar reference lol. Anyway! My headcanons for the Ninja (in Dragons Rising Era)

Kinda sucks that I had to put Nya in a bra cuz her most prominent scar is on her chest 🫤

Might do the DR kids at some point too.

The blue of the tiles... Zima Blue, the manufacturer called it. The first thing I ever saw.
