What's rom-comquest?
Conquest but it’s a romcom. Because of course I’m going to take the story involving a one-sided romance and make it into something stupid.
The backstory for this one changes a bit, as, rather than Hashara invading Ninjago, his father, Rashisa, is the one who invades Ninjago while Hashi is still a child. In the end he fails to take over the realm due to Wu, Garm, & the other EMs, but he still managed to take a lot of Ninjagoans prisoner before having to give them back.
And Cole & his parents were among those prisoners, Cole having been given to Hashara as a playmate. So of course, in true romcom fashion, these two children promise to marry each other when they get older. Thus, when Hashara is of age to take the throne, the first thing he does is set out to Ninjago in order to marry Cole.
But there are some problems. Problem #1:
“Well, we don’t really know each other that well, Hashi.” Cole said, running a hand through his hair. “Since we haven’t seen each other in so long. And so I think, for marriage to be on the table, we should spend some time as friends first, catching up and getting to know each other.” He smiled. “It’s so great to see you again.”
And so Hashara agrees to spend some time as friends, in the hopes that he and Cole will eventually come together as companions.
And problem #2? Hashara’s not the only one simping for Cole. Though Cole hasn’t realized it yet, Kai (and maybe others, I haven’t decided yet) is interested in him romantically. So it becomes a race to see what happens first—will Cole fall for Hashara, or will Kai work up the courage to confess?
tl;dr A terrible idea spawned from Conquest in which Colshara/HotBloodedshipping is actually possible
