How about some the ninja team on new years eve hcs?
new year eve’s hcs (im sorry if they’re bad i dont really do shit for new years)
also ships are greenloveshipping (pretty minor, dont worry if you dont know what that is), amberphoenix, and polyninja (kai x jay x zane x cole)!
kai and skylor get drunk
kai: *downs a shot* LET’S GET SHITFACED AWOOOO
(new conversation) skylor to kai: let’s talk about white people.
kai: why they always makin casseroles?
they stay up all night except for kai and skylor cause they’re drunk but they do make an effort to stay up
basically they wait for it to turn to next year then smooch their s/os, try to stay up another few hours then drop
their s/os take A Many pictures of them
lloyd, looking at polyninja kiss each other one by one: you know what do you think would happen if you all just. smooched each other at once
cole: how about you try yourself mr. i have like 6 datemates
they stay in the destiny’s bounty to celebrate new years instead of going down to ninjago city because Everybody Screams Down There
it’s also kind of a chance for villains to attack so they need to be on lookout
skylor: new years here is so loud. in chinese new year we just give each other money and that’s it
jay, a little tipsy: sounds nice wish i was chinese
skylor: y. you are chinese you dumbass
they try going down once., it was a disaster and that was their first and last attempt at going down to celebrate in ninjago city
kai and jay, bless their clumsy ass souls, tripped over like 12 people
all cole could smell for like a week after that was sweaty people smell
lloyd cried bc it was so, so loud
lloyd downs a jug nd a half of milk and throws up afterwards every new years eve
cole usually has to throw up too bc he hates milk
also it doesnt really help that lloyd’s lactose intolerant and that was., Not lactose free milk
he always lives in agony the next few days, however without regrets
they visit a museum bc there’s was a new years event
it was cool and zane liked it
tbh zane liking it is all the approval anything needs
the clock strikes midnight and there are like 10 different kissing noises. wu is disgusted.
also haha im gonna go through a loophole nd do chinese new year hcs too even tho that’s a month and a half away >:3
jay bc of being adopted by white parents never celebrated chinese new year very much. in fact he’s in the dark about most of his culture
skylor, finding out that jay never celebrated chinese new year: you sad, sad soul
she takes him under her wing for chinese culture
they eat Celebratory Noodles from skylor’s restaurant and go to an authentic chinese buffet for lunch
skylor talks about americanized chinese foods to jay and how to find out which chinese restaurants are authentic
then they go out to the streets of chinatown and watch a cool-ass dragon/lion dance!!
lloyd records the entire thing. it’s so cool!
jay finds the rhythmic thumping of the drums during the dance comforting and listens to lloyd’s recording a lot after that
the dance leads them to a mall and they watch somebody draw one of those traditional chinese paintings
nya and kai really enjoyed watching it
when they get home all the semi-decent cookers start making chinese food to eat for dinner
everybody helps at least a little bit except for cole. he just sits there and skylor Refuses to let him touch the food
NOODLES. DUMPLINGS. SPRING ROLLS. TANGYUAN (汤圆). NIANGAO (年糕). FISH. PORK BELLY. TOFU. MORE FOOD THAT I UNFORTUNATELY DONT KNOW THE NAME OF/FORGOT.
aaaLLLLL THE GOOD SHIT
skylor sings and teaches this song she learned when she was little that was about tangyuan.
if you’ve been in a learning chinese language school YOU PROBABLY KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT
卖汤圆 !!!
it gets stuck in almost everybody’s heads and they hum it at some point
even wu. Even Wu.
cole loves 年糕 (niangao)
it’s basically chinese cake. why would he not?
he eats like half of the 年糕
skylor teaches them the song 恭喜恭喜
lloyd, screaming at the top of his lungs: 恭喜恭喜恭喜你呀， 恭喜恭喜恭喜你！！！
then they trade red packets! they use chocolate coins instead of actual money bc chocolate is more useful to a 17 year old (lloyd) than money
ed and edna participate too, except they actually give money
lloyd ends up with like 15 chocolate coins and he eats them all within the next week
jay is so happy the first time they celebrate chinese new years
pretty much one of the only things he knew about his culture was the language (ed and edna put him in chinese school)
and he’s super happy that he gets to finally properly learn more about his culture!
this was basically just me projecting onto jay and skylor cause Chinese. i also wrote more words for the chinese new year hcs than the actual new year hcs ngfnjngfdjnfd im sorry
feel free to send in asks for headcanons!
