🎉 - big celebrations or small gatherings ?

judas often prefers big celebrations... but not planning them LOL, he likes talking his way INTO parties, the bigger and more ostentatious the better. not only does he get to LARP as a rich person, but he also gets to scam actual rich people! win!

ronin and rapton are often his partners in crime to these, but during the time where he's with garmadon, he's so busy with work as a bartender (and also so in his 'straight and narrow era') that he doesn't even bother going to any at all

🎁 - expensive gifts or homemade gifts ?

EXPENSIVEEEEE!!!!!!!!! judas is about 2 steps removed from being a sugar baby sometimes and its only because he likes the active step of stealing things for himself. he will certainly never say no to something nabbed just for him though. this goes double for rapton, who he often sends on errands when he thinks a task is too much effort/beneath him but wants the reward of doing it anyway

🌺 - pomegranate metaphors or dog metaphors ?

i've said this before but DOG METAPHORS!!!!! with all my self ships in general but i think with judas's string of partners its even more obvious. truly a stray dog/stray dog type ship dynamic with all of these characters in various ways.

🍓 - fruits or veggies ?

judas is someone who is very conscious about what he eats (to a fault) so, while he probably had a big sweet tooth growing up, he's basically strangled his taste in food into what he wants it to be. he likes bitter vegetables a lot, and often douses them in acidic vinegars and spicy marinades to make them more palatable. not to say he doesn't like fruit though, he just prefers them more sour/tangy to actually sweet

🥭 - coffee or tea ?

usually tea, but while he's a bartender he starts getting really into coffee and heavier caffeinated drinks to help supplement his energy levels w/ his busy schedule.

🐬 - ocean or space ?

HMMM good question... i think probably space? judas (like me), has a general disdain (and possible fear) of open water, so he'd probably take anything over that. all of his partners find this extremely funny considering how flippant he is over peoples (much more rational) fears but then gets freaked out at the idea of swimming in a lake or at a beach

🌿 - best dressed or casual attire ?

BEST DRESSED ONLY. judas would literally rather go through CIA torture than be seen without at least some level of makeup and two shapewear garments. when he's bartending he starts slacking a little on his patrick bateman-level getting ready regime but that's when he also starts using his illusion powers more, so even when bartending he still basically looks like a model cosplaying as a minimum wage service worker. it's very bad for his health (physically and mentally) to do this, though

🎨 - painting date or pottery date ?

with ronin: painting date, but it would be like one of those tiktoks where you paint your partner and both of them just take the piss and draw really bad pictures of each other

with garmadon: pottery date. judas pretends like it's because he likes pottery more (lie), but in reality he knows that (at this point in the ninjago timeline) garmadon is a Potted Plant Enjoyer and he's too broke to buy him something and too embarrassed / emotionally constipated to make something of his own volition so they make pottery together and judas makes up an excuse about how he doesn't have space for the pot he made and it would look good in garmadon's apartment anyway so he should have it
