Time for some Jay Headcanons yāall
Also Polyninja is a thing
Very frequent video game player
Loves cuddling with his friends and boyfriends
Second shortest of them at 5ā6ā
Creates static electricity when heās excited or nervous, so his hair is almost always constantly a mess when he gets done with a mission or gets back from a date
This also makes him shock people if he gets jump-scared, making horror movie nights with him not the best
Constantly doing repairs on or upgrading Zane or their appliances (he almost blew up their oven once, and now he is not allowed to touch any of the kitchen appliances besides the microwave)
Horrible sleeper. He easily looses track of time and can stay up for entire nights in his workshop modifying and building things, and he doesnāt know heās tired until the sun rises or when someone drags him to bed.
He taught Lloyd every pranking trick in the book and now he helps him regularly torture the others to get back at them for their teasing
Lightning scars (we all know this headcanon)
Heās actually very self-conscious about his body because of his scars and really only wears tink tops and t shirts around the other ninja because he trusts them.
He naturally smells like copper (because of his lightning) with hints of cologne (he tried it once for a date and hasnāt gotten the smell off since) and the slightest bit of blueberries (heās obsessed with blueberry yogurt)
He needs to be constantly reminded by the others to shower after spending hours in the workshop or training covered in grease and sweat.
He loves techno pop, electro and k pop. Any rave-type songs. And also video game soundtracks.
He loves anything sour. Lemon-flavored stuff, warheads, sour patch kids, anything blue-raspberry flavored.
He is absolutely obsessed with slurpees (blue raspberry, as said)
Heās also a big fan of AJR
He cosplays as Superstar Rockinā Jay
Heāll be the type to enter those āwho looks mostly likeā contests for him at cons and never gets to top 3. (He got 4th once though)
Unlike Lloyd, he never gets tired of blue. He loves blue. Heāll always manage to wear blue whenever they go out somewhere besides missions. But he also occasionally wears yellow, grey/silver and indigo.
My dude used to secretly rock platform boots until the other ninja found out only to boost his self confidence
He and Kai are competitive in almost any video game they play, most infamously dance dance revolution.
Seriously the others get popcorn and record it all and everything and instead of training theyāll just go at it for hours.
If youāre a villain/criminal and you severely hurt even one of his friends or his boyfriends then I hope you can withstand the power of 1.3 million volts coursing though your body.
So you know master builders right? (Iām not sure if theyāre supposed to be canonically those but if so fuck that) Jay is one of those, but feral. Heāll just start running around and building shit with no explanation whatsoever. One time he and the other 4 were in a car and while in the passenger seat he made them fly, and now someone has to sit in the back with him at all costs.
He also is very bad at explaining and describing things. Heās a very visual learner. If you want him to tell you how to build something, good luck with that. But give him a few pieces of scrap metal and he could show you how to make something that can kill God.
He also makes up names for parts like his dad and often times when he asks for one of those things everyone gets confused. Itās like when speakers of two languages are trying to translate and remember things from one language to the other.
After his time of being a TV host (did I say TV host, no we donāt talk about that) Jay surprisingly knows how to do makeup really well and subconsciously carries concealer and eyeliner on his everywhere. One day theyāre traveling to some public event and Nya forgets that she didnāt cover this one scar she has on her cheek, and Jay just whips out the concealer and boom four seconds flat flawless skin. Everyone is shocked. Nya is grateful.
He also likes to paint his nails when he isnāt in his workshop and can do them really well. He especially likes mixing them to get specific colors.
He doesnāt like wearing matching socks at all. They HAVE to be different patterns.
The definition of a bi disaster. Someone help him.
Do not give this man caffeine UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES unless you donāt fear God
He loves wearing fuzzy socks and dragging his feet to shock people. Heās had the ninja run away from him before (except Zane. For Zane, itās just an energy boost, like charging a battery).
All the ninja will just be sitting regularly on the couch and then Jay is upside down.
Jay: Have you ever felt bugs on you when their are no bugs on you? Theyāre the ghosts of the bugs youāve killed.
Kai: Jay THIS HAS GOT TO STOP!
Jay: When you clean a vacuum cleaner arenāt you the vacuum cleaner?
Cole: Jay-Jay youāve got to end this alright? You already have Zane in the other room questioning everything he has ever known!
Jay: Nothing is ever really on fire. But rather fireā¦is on things
Kai: be a ninja, Wu said. Itāll be worth it, Wu said.
Jay: If life is unfair to everyone does that mean life is actually fair?ā
Cole: This is never gonna end, is it?
Jay: if I get scared half to death twice, what then?
Kai: Alright, Zane make room, weāre coming in there with you
