new and updated theory on the source of lloyd’s power!
in dragons rising there definitely has been lore dropped here and there but more than anything I find ammunition to power my long winded theory that lloyd’s powers come from his heart, in theoretical and just elemental sense.
doc wyatt has established there isn’t a set explanation (YET) in show, but he did like one of my tweets regarding my claim that Lloyd’s power resonates within the heart and soul.
starting out, lloyd’s power has never been defined. it is hinted by the writers that lloyd has no idea what it is, though what we do know is that it—-
1) can create life and destroy it (the book of elemental powers)
2) draw energy from the elements
3) shield oneself / very powerful in attack
4) does not belong to the source dragon of energy but belongs to the source dragon OF LIFE
5) has some sort of connection with the FSM
and lastly, by LEGO GROUP’s definition.. it’s ENERGY.
energy can have have different meanings. energy in lightning’s case seems to be the electrical sense, but energy can .. power up things, it makes things work -
energy is also used as a synonym for life force, this is demonstrated when referring to the act of draining source dragons and the whack-rats.
what i am getting at, is I believe that energy in the sense of lloyd’s powers is that he holds the essence of life itself. his power works hand in hand in his survival as well as keeps him alive.
now to connect him to LIFE , a source dragon, was very interesting but made a great deal of sense. Life is in everything, energy can create life.. who created life?
THE FSM used elemental powers to bring Garmadon and Wu into existence, he also holds the ability that past his death, he could steal lloyd from the mortal world to speak to him in the grasslands.
the elements of creation can be drawn from in their energy for lloyd, but the elements of creation were the core four.
LIFE = Lightning, Ice, Fire, Earth
so….
that also makes sense as to when he was dying in mystake’s tea shop that they had to use their elemental powers of creation to revive lloyd or heal him.
now jumping into the theory that will always be my favorite, and the show itself actually jumped into it was elemental powers being felt or drawn from different places depending on the elemental powers, ie nya with veins, zane with his mind, etc etc etc—
lloyd’s power comes from his heart in my opinion.
firstly, life—- energy is what makes the heart beat, you cannot live without that.
mentally, lloyds power has always been his true self, his heart, the way he cares so deeply for people (even if they do not deserve so)
green in spirituality also represents the heart chakra, it is very similar in description.
but as someone so close to his mortality, and who i believe is always aware of such, it makes so much sense.
in s8, when his element is fighting for him as he’s succumbing to his wounds in the fight in krytparium it sparks on his chest,
following this— the elemental master figures that were released in the SOG wave depicted different elements and where they were located differed on the ninja, lloyds was insanely insanely obvious—
overdrawing from his element has caused him great sickness multiple times. we see this with golden power, then we see this with him fainting while using his element against griefbringer in MOTM (something very opposite to his element— death)
the fact that his power kept him alive but also left him for a bit after he almost was on the brink of dying in s8
now with dragons rising and the conduit putting him in a semi coma for several days because of his mortality
he puts his hand on his heart when he approaches the imperium source dragon when saying “this place, i feel weird”
him believing he’d die from conduit power…
it’s justttt…
but that being said there is so much they could discuss about lloyd in show, whether discovering his powers, or seeing the actual scope of what they do
lloyd is very hesitant and he out of anyone never talks about his powers or how they work
but there’s so much there, like what if his elemental power could heal people or bring people back to life (other than himself LOL)

My Lloyd obsession
He’s seriously taking over my mind.. whatever
I have a little corner of my shelf that’s all of my Lloyd sets and Lloyd figures (it’s already full :,((
He’s so cute I made him the theme of my phone 😭😭😭
I made this one a while ago but still think it’s adorable soooo
drew them sleeping because I'm tired and have to project my problems onto others so they get to be tired now
literally going to fight someone about ninjago dr s3 because, before anyone flames me, this wasn’t the best season so far 😞
look I’m not the best at analyzing stuff like this but I do my fair share in writing and research so I do want to share my personal opinion on the story and etc.
you’re telling me Cole basically got ZERO SCREENTIME?? ZERO. NONE.
sora GOING WITH ARIN?? WHAT THE F- why. WHY. I’M LITERALLY GONNA JUMP I LOVE THEIR FRIENDSHIP BUT THAT IS NOT IT
I REALLY REALLY need to see Lloyd start crashing out about losing BOTH his students (i have no idea if Frak is considered his student because… he basically didn’t get focus either)
Ras’ bxtch ahh should go to hell just saying
the only thing I liked was MORRO THE LOML AND MY WIFE PIX AND JAYYYAYAYA MY LOVE
OH AND WYFY AND ROBY THEYRE SOOAJRJRJFJ we love supportive Kai that was the best part btw; theyre literally so father and daughter FIGHT W THE WALL ^^
to be completely honest, I feel like in general there was a lot of comedic moments and less storytelling. the only good storytelling part imo was Ras and Arin’s side: specifically Ras’ mfing manipulation over Arin.
tbf that part was always a masterpiece… not the literal manipulation though
and the part where Jay says Arin’s parents are alive… I’m gonna jump if Ras faked their deaths to use Arin like a fvcking puppet
The flashback of Sora and Arin meeting was definitely wholesome, but not… really… expected or like kind of random ig? I feel like they could have showed it through Arin and Sora maybe feeling guilty and remembering how they met or something, more-so Sora since she ends up going with Arin.
like I get they’re best friends and all but… I feel like more could’ve been done with that(?) to show Sora wanting to stay with Arin in the end, esp with the relationship between the ninja and Ras.
And FRAK. DID. NOT. GET. ENOUGH. …development? Character-wise
Frak suddenly going all “I don’t think you understand what being a ninja is” in the last or second to last episode to Arin, but we don’t see enough interaction to build his idea of that other than being a superfan of them in general
I will never stop saying this: they should give him some kind of arc in helping him switch over from Ras’ “anger and hate becomes strength” technique to the ninja’s. We clearly see him more aggressive on the obstacle course in the first episode, but that’s barely touched on later on…
i do like how Arin ends up being able to do object Spinjitzu well enough in the end by.. using his kindness or wtvr that was… to defeat Thunderfang (who will definitely come back and better die for basically killing Morro… he’s already dead but that’s not the point)
i don’t think redoing the merge can “bring back his parents” even if they were actually dead because despite all that talk on it reshaping reality… idk if that’s how things work
I am glad about Arin still stopping Ras from fighting at times and etc.; his character is probably the best here other than Ras imo
other than we have:
that part in the First Realm (or Land ig) where Frak freaks out about the Oni… dude you’re literally right next to one
frak is so real btw I love him, just wish he could be more refined in terms of character
never mind frak though, COLE BETTER HAVE A LOT MORE SCREENTIME IN PART 2; never gonna forgive the writers for this
Oh and Zane dying for the nth time, that was great
Sora and frak bickering… I take back the shipping from my last post, but I do get Sora for being pissed off a bit
And Lloyd saying “green is the best” I LOVE HIM HAHAHSJSJSJN<33
like I said, there was a lot of comedic relief and stuff: not to say it wasn’t funny bc I cackled at most of them, but the overall story just.. wasn’t what I expected
I stand by my case that season 2 is still the best dr season… at least so far
Idk like I said I’m not really good at this stuff and sometimes I change my mind after hearing others’ opinions so lemme know if you agree or if you wanna throw me to the Netherspace
I NEED TO RANT ABOUT DR S3 EP1 RIGHT NOW BEFORE I COMBUST
I love Frak (praying that his arc is at least somewhat about his struggle trying to switch over from Ras’ anger and hate techniques to the ninja’s) HE’S SO CUTE SOBS I love how he’s like the super nice character but he’s trying to channel his hate LMAOO
I love his relationship with Sora
Idk if I ship them just yet or at all but they’re both so silly and he called her attractive (my jaw dropped)
AND ZANE CALLING PIXAL ATTRACTIVE SOBS HYSTERICALLY MY BABIES I KNEW HE WAS REFERRING TO HER (my jaw dropped more)
Frak saying he’s Arin’s always best friend to Sora I’M LITERALLY GONNA JUMP
oh and Cole and Lloyd SOBSJSJSJSKS
and Frak’s thing with intelligent George HELP ME i get the puppet thing but gravity is most definitely real (i can’t really prove it either)
OH AND THE JAYA IM GONNA AHRHRHFJFHTFJH
Wyldfyre and her silly costumes 😞
impatiently waiting for episode 2 in english
How long was Jay just not cutting his hair
OMFG YES PLEASEEE THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT, arin and morro are hitting me so hard being parallels AAHHDJSJFJ
both lloyd and wu may be putting too much pressure or expectations on arin and morro being their first students akdjajdjsjdjjd and now they’re turning away from their masters
and I need to see morro back omg CRYINGJDJSJD
morro. morro please stop lloyd from repeating wu's mistakes. morro im begging you. and stop arin from going down your path. morro please. morro
literally 😭
the writers won't let garmadon and lloyd have a good relationship because if they do then all the villains are gonna have to deal with this 8'4 overprotective undead oni demigod coming to kill them because they looked at lloyd funny /hj

a/n. YESYESYES OFC I’M MAKING THIS ANON, I HAVE BEEN WAITINGGGG FOR SOMEONE TO REQ THIS (I usually have no motivation if ppl don’t ask for them) 🥹 I LOVE LLOYD SM ☹️ @rubies4dayz YOU ARE SO REAL FOR THAT, I READ EVERY LLOYD FIC I COULD FIND I SWEAR 😭 anyways, here you go! hope the two of you and anyone else reading enjoys!<33
navigation. masterlist request guidelines ninjago masterlist
omg he’s the absolute cutest :((( (you can probably tell he’s basically my fav by now but i love them all, ANYWAYS)
i feel like LLOYD would be really shy and nervous at the beginning
would try really hard to make the relationship work out bc it’s his first time and he had no idea what he’s supposed to be doing
especially after harumi.. ahem.. happened, just give him some time to heal and figure out how a (hopefully) healthy relationship would go
would probably go to kai and/or jay about advice—even nya sometimes (please don’t trust kai with these things, lloyd sksjdjsjs)
would’ve had no idea he was in love with you until the ninjas pointed it out directly
(more under the cut !)
once he starts to get more comfortable with the relationship, he starts let out his more childish side
would absolutely prank you (as a joke obv) just for sillies :p it’s his love language in a way
COMIC STORE AND CANDY STORE DATESJSKJDKW >>>>>>>
would not be a pda or physical affection person in general, but my god he is definitely touch starved, PLEASE HUG HIM :’(( (not before i do/j)
he would be so nervous to initiate hugs or cuddles or anything, just let him know that he can if he wants to and that he doesn’t have to be so nervous ushauhajaijaoa
omg please take care of this poor baby :(( you will have to force him to get sleep (insomniac lloyd is so canon) or take a break
on the more serious side, i think he would rant/vent to you sometimes about stress and his anxiety :((((
back to fluff, he would 100% stare at you. not in a creepy way or anything but he’s just admiring you<33 would sososo have heart eyes for you
unconsciously cuddles you while sleeping, he’s such a cutie :((
first to wake up bc of training and yk
honestly think he would be a nose or cheek kisser (just based on a feeling)
oh yeah, and going back to his love language, he would be a more words of affirmation and/or acts of service type<333
guys i love him sm like i cannot, TREAT HIM WELL BECAUSE HE WILL ABSOLUTELY DO THE SAME!!
