Mistress of E̸v̸i̸l̸ Sufferings

Welcome to my side of Tumblr! I’m EMZi. Mostly into Ninjago, with some Running Man Animation and original works. I write AUs and stories more than I draw, though I do some art too. I don’t do commissions—this is just for fun, and motivation and I aren’t exactly best friends. Also, will post about other fandoms on a random basis lol

(And before I start posting irregularly)

I forgot to highlight the nose- Old has a normal nose, new either has a cat or dog nose (I have yet to decide)

Might make oni!Jay one of these days or my Oni headcanons, who knows 🤷

Oh yeah, first pic is made from Gacha Club (but I used a mod, but I didn't really used anything special there, so-). Second is made in Gacha Life 2 👍 This is mostly like a half-form or something

Clean ver (I guess?) below the cut

Bruise, but one of them is an oni and this happens:

*enters a room* “Hello?”

*is a worm* “Do you still love me as a worm? 🥺🥺🥺”

“You turned yourself into a worm just to ask me that? 😐😑”

Evil Versions of their TADCsona

Lloyd/Creston (Evil Creston)

Instead of being able to freely transform into any origami himself, he has no control over his transformations. He literally turns into whatever other people need him to be. So if somebody told him to become a sword, a dragon, or even just a box, he'd automatically fold into that shape whether he wants to or not. The transformation itself isn't painful, but the lack of choice definitely is.

Nya/Drift (Anastasis "Stasis")

Her water is in a permanent state of stillness no matter what she does. The fluid never forms waves, currents, or drift patterns, even during emotional extremes or external force. Think of a camera on a stabilizer, that's basically how the liquid behaves. Maybe if I use the Destiny's Bounty as the boat, it'd have an anchor permanently dropped. If I use the dragon, maybe it's just sitting at the bottom completely unmoving.

Cole/Litho (Evil Litho)

Yeah, he's still made of the same stones as Litho. The difference is that they no longer work together. Whenever he's struck, the notes clash with each other instead of forming anything harmonious, creating a harsh, dissonant sound. The impacts also leave small cracks behind, which slowly spread across his body over time. Instead of turning force into music, every hit just leaves him a little more fractured.

Jay/Bertam (Evil Bertam)

He can still transform into his train form whenever he wants. The difference is that instead of doing it when he's anxious, he usually does it whenever he doesn't want to be bothered. Need to have a conversation? Train. Someone asking a personal question? Train. Mild inconvenience? Also train.

Kai/Ignian (Extingian)

His colors constantly shift on a loop with no clear trigger, never settling long enough to reflect a real emotion. Sometimes he'll look furious while perfectly calm, and other times he'll look completely fine while internally freaking out. The colors technically still change, but they don't actually tell you anything useful anymore.

Zane/Cordi (Scripti)

He can still choose which voiceline to use when his string is pulled, either by himself or someone else. The problem is that his normal speech is completely gone, so every conversation has to be built out of those preset phrases. He has more control than a typical pull-string toy, but he's still working with a very limited script.

PIXAL/Wynda (Evil Wynda)

This is definitely not a vent 😁 Btw, inspired by “Raining in Manila” by Lola Amour

Draconus!Jay x oni!Cole

Wanted to share the video, but it literally narrows down where I live, so y'all are getting my unofficial English translation instead under the cut 👍

Ninja's First Words, because why not

• Lloyd - “Ba'” (Bad)

• Nya - “'Ai” (Kai)

• Cole - “'Ama!” (Mama; Lou thought it was "ama" which means dad in Tagalog, but Cole was reaching for Lilly so…)

• Jay - “Wah?” (Why; Ed told him to not touch the gizmo)

• Kai - “Tía!” (Tía; Yeah… Maya left baby!Kai with Lilly and Libber… Big mistake)

• Zane - Who (I was thinking his first words after activating was “Who are you?”… First learned word is "Father")

What happens if they hold their breath?:

• Lloyd - Unfolds into a flat sheet of paper

• Nya - The fluids stops moving

• Cole - Rocks vibrates, creating a continuous ringing sound

• Jay - His train whistle goes off (yes, Jay's a steam train specifically)

• Kai - The wax becomes too buoyant and clumps up at the top

• Zane - His string falls out a little farther every second he's holding his breath (so when he exhales, he says a voiceline)

(Hope y'all can see my vision)

Lloyd

Creston

Lloyd surprisingly took the longest for me to decide on. At first, it's a puppet, then Play-Doh entity, then slime… Then I got to paper dolls, which made me remember origamis. His base form is a human origami with stickers to decorate himself. Origami felt fitting because it starts as a single sheet of paper and can be folded into countless different forms, much like how Lloyd has constantly had to adapt to new roles throughout his life. Despite all those changes, he's still the same person underneath. His gimmick is that he can refold himself into different origami creatures. His name is Crease + Preston, referencing the folds and creases that allow origami to constantly transform.

Nya

Drifiana "Drift"

She's a humanoid version of a Fluid Drift toy?? Liquid Motion??? Just this. The boat is Destiny's Bounty or her water dragon form when she merged with the sea. I chose a Fluid Drift toy because they're built around a small object journeying through a constantly moving environment. No matter how much the liquid shifts, the boat continues forward. That felt fitting for Nya because she's one of the most resilient members of the team. Whether she's acting as Samurai X, mastering Water, becoming one with the sea, or finding her way back afterward, she keeps moving forward no matter what changes around her.

Cole

Litho

He is a rock golem, not made with normal rocks, but with the rocks they use to make a lithophone (a stone xylophone). Maybe a collage design of these naturally resonant rocks: slate, limestone, hornfels, phonolite, basalt, granite, jade, and diabase. And yes, his name is from the instrument "lithophone" specifically. His gimmick is that whenever he is struck, the impacted part of his body produces a ringing, metallic, or echoing sound similar to a xylophone, glockenspiel, or bell. Because each type of rock resonates differently, every impact creates a different note. Also, his eyes are glowing gemstones, I don't know which one yet, but the glow corresponds to his emotions.

Jay

Bertam

Yes, the name is inspired by the BRTM-12 train Jay yapped about in Crystallized. In relation to that, he is a train transformer toy and when he transforms, it's like Megabot from “Big Hero 6”, but with lightning. A train felt fitting for Jay because he's always moving, always talking, and always jumping from one idea to the next. Much like a train building momentum, his thoughts and emotions tend to snowball once they get going. Also, because of his interest for trains. His gimmick is that whenever he's anxious (or just wanna hide), he will transform into his train form.

Kai

Ignian

Yeah, I hope y'all realize by now I like making Kai and Nya matching yet different at the same time, so he's a lava lamp being. Lava lamps only work when heat is constantly flowing through them, and that felt fitting for Kai. So much of what drives him comes from passion, whether it's protecting the people he loves, proving himself, or throwing himself headfirst into danger. When the heat is there, everything inside the lamp comes alive. Anyways, his name is a hybrid of Ignition and Ian, because fire. His gimmick is that his body behaves like a living lava lamp, but instead of the movement changing with his emotions, the colors do. His emotions are impossible to hide, with the liquid inside him immediately shifting shades depending on how he feels.

Zane

Cordi

Zane is a pull-string doll because he was designed to be as human as possible. He spent years believing he was an ordinary person. Pull-string dolls are made to imitate people, with soft features, expressive faces, and voices that can speak to others. While the toy is still artificial, its purpose is to feel human, which mirrors Zane's origins and the way he connects with the world. So his gimmick is that he says quotes when his string is pulled. Some notable ones are:

• I was built to protect those who cannot protect themselves.

• Even in the dark, we have a choice to reflect the light.

• No one ever said that being a hero is easy. Though our good deeds may never make us rich, they make us rich in other ways.

• It's best to remember our loved ones as they were in our hearts, not as they are now.

• (and of course) HELLO, MY BABY! HELLO, MY HONEY! HELLO, MY RAG-TIME GALLLLLL!! SEND ME A KISS BY WWWWIIIRRREEE… *happy upbeat music*

Zane can control which he'll say, if he's aware his string is about to be pulled. If he's not, it's random. Also, that's his name because of the string + the name "Codi" (He can speak normally, by the way)
