Chapter Text
Arin: so were you ever going to tell us that the FSM was your grandfather
Lloyd: ...no??
Arin: ?!?!?!? D:< ?!?!?
Sora: yeah i didn't even know that riyu could do spinjitzu like -
Lloyd: tbh not the weirdest thing i've seen dragons do
Sora: ...explain?
Lloyd: i mean they can literally travel through realms idk why you think that spinjitzu would behardfor them -
Sora: whAT
Lloyd: i wish uncle wu was here
Arin: i'm sure he was a great mentor to you and an uncle. you must miss him a lot.
Lloyd: yeah but i really miss him being able to hit kai in the head with a stick.
Kai: i hEARD THAT YOU LITTLE sh*t -
Arin: uh -
Lloyd: *walks in on Arin and Sora lying together* OH MY GOD IM SO SORRY -
Arin: lloyd it's not what you think we're just friends - *arin and sora trying their best to get out of bed, get tangled in the blankets, trip, fall, faceplant, etc etc0
*cue Lloyd trying to give them the Talk*
Lloyd: so...y'know...i fully support any kind of relationship y'all might want...
Sora: with HIM? ew
Arin: rude
Lloyd: *continues* but you have to remember to be safe...
Arin: OH EW EW EW
*zane pulls up a whole ass slideshow*
*they are forced to sit through all three hours of it*
*it inclues a video and for some reason a 90s styles detective movie*
Kai: yeah i rmb zane making that for lloyd
Arin and Sora: FOR LLOYD?
Kai: yeah he didn't tell you? he was like a tiny kid when we found him
Kai: he's still a tiny kid
Kai: just in an adult's body
Arin: wha -
Sora: explanation please
Kai: no thx bye bitches
*yeets himself outta there*
*arin and sora chase him for an explanation*
Lloyd, much later, after recovering from the trauma of seeing that slideshow again: i still maintain that you kidnapped me
Arin and Sora: ?!?!
Kai: kid we didn't even want you
Arin and Sora:!?!?!?
(okay but for real there's nothing going on between arin and sora they jsut like to tease the little kids)
(also platonic cuddling is more than okay in this household arin and sora know they're teasing)
(they have video evidence of lloyd curled up in the middle of nya and kai)
(it's sweet and wholesome and blackmail material for days)
Arin: okay but zane this is so good
Arin: is this like a family recipe or something
Arin: if so can i have it
Zane, who is fully aware of what he's doing: I believe that it is not a family recipe, seeing that my father died and flicked off my memory switch.
Arin:
Arin: im so sorry imsosorry omg
ninja: *struggling not to burst out laughing*
Zane, completely straight-faced: of course, he came back to life and i recovered them, but this isn't one of his recipes.
Arin: what
Arin: i
Arin: uh
Kai: r u sure his recipes would be edible
Kai: idk seems like they'd just be lots of metal
*END CREDITS ROLL OVER THE SOUND OF NYA HITTING HER BROTHER IN THE HEAD WITH A WOODEN SPOON*
(okay but hear me out)
Arin: excuse me r u aaron burr sir
kai: that depends who's asking
arin: well sure, sir, im alexandar hamilton im at ur service sir
arin: i have been looking for you
kai: im getting nervous
Nya: tf they doing
sora, who has had to deal with this bs for the past three years: it's...don't question it
arin: (insert lyrics here where they were rapping while the girls were talking and bonding over dumb brothers) they looked at me like i was stupid im not stupid
Sora: (absolute lie)
arin: so howd you do it? howd u graduate so fast?
kai, solemnly: it was my parent's dying wish before they passed.
arin: of course! you're an orphan - i'm an orphan god i wish there was a war then we could prove -
nya, slapping kai on the head with a pillow: THAT'S - NOT - FUNNY - KAI
sora, who has given up: *flicks arin on the forehead* *the boy in question gives her puppy eyes* *she raises a middle finger at him*
*cue literally any time of day*
arin: how does a ragtag, volunteer army in need of a shower -
literally Everyone else: SHUT UP
(kai and arin do not listen)
(they rap all of guns and ships)
(unsurprisingly they can't do it)
(surprisingly the only one who can come close is lloyd)
(also eliza is both their favourite characters)
imagine:
Kai: LAFAYETTE
arin: im taking this horse by the reins making redcoats redder with bloodstains -
Sora: *screams into her pillow*
nya: *yells at them to shut up* (it does not work)
zane turns off his hearing capacity
lloyd uses them as target practice
one day, randomly:
Kai: hey why dont we use airjitzu anymore
zane: i believe the writers feel it makes us too 'OP'
kai: what?
zane: 'OP' is the short form for 'overpowered', something that due to your interaction as a 'gen z', or perhaps, closer to millennial, you should know -
kai: no i mean wdym wr -
zane, loudly: what
kai: i mean the wr -
zane, louder: WHAT
kai:
zane:
kai:
kai: bitch did you just call me a millennial
PLACES IN THE MONASTERY NINJA LOVE
COMPOSED BY SORA AND ARIN (AND RIYU)
1. the training grounds. duh. lloyd would kick our asses if we didn't
2. kai likes to spend time at the forge. we've had a few mishaps since he started firing it up, but he's getting actual weapons now!
3. the library. altho that ones more of a necessity for research. we've spent so much time in there im about to vomit words out of my eyes. (Arin: you're being overdramatic) (sora: how would you know)
4. the kitchen. duh. zane's cooking is to die for. i would kill for it. (arin: we*)
5. the cave! mechs, gadgets, anything a tech elemental could ever ask for. plus lots of space for riyu to practice flying
6. the...freezer? sometimes we find zane in there. he likes to crunch ice. it is very loud.
7. the roof. i mean. this is kinda weird considering the number of attacks they have reportedly had from the roof. they just laugh about it and then sigh contentedly. i once heard kai say, "hey rmb the time we kidnapped nya here?" and im too scared to ask anything else after that
8. the meditation room. this is lloyds fav place. he drinks tea and meditates here. sometimes one of the older ninja go inside but not usually.
9. game room. popular duh but only sometimes i'll ask zane or kai to play with me and they really only manage 30min before looking at another character icon and then going off. i think they might be crying
10. nya spends most of her time updating the security so ig she doesnt really have a favourite place? once i asked her and she just smiled sadly and didn't say anything else. but she looks at the room next to hers a lot. (that ones blocked off to me and sora) she doesnt go in tho. i think i know whose room that was.
lloyd: ah this is nice finally a day to relax
lloyd: hold on
lloyd: its too quiet
lloyd: where are the kids
lloyd: oh god theyve gone off and done something stupid again havent they
lloyd: im going to be a sad father oh no
lloyd: i will become a grieving parent
lloyd: god how did uncle wu ever deal with us
lloyd: where are they im going to kill them
lloyd: SORA ARIN GET UR ASSES DOWN HERE BEFORE I KICK THEM
lloyd: why r they not responding
lloyd: theyre at the crossroads again arent them omg
lloyd: im never having kids again
*cue small squeak*
lloyd: ...is this your idea of a prank. it's not funny.
*opens cupboard*
*two children fall out*
*faced with puppy eyes*
*cannot resist*
lloyd: i see why my father decided to go to the underworld than raise me now
kai, nya, zane: lloyd, nO-
