Summary
Zane had felt trapped between worlds after returning to Ninjago. Lloyd felt stuck between wanting to stick it out with Zane and wanting to talk some sense into his thick skull. In the end, an imperfect solution was better than nothing.
Takes place post-season eleven-ish in an AU where Zane isn't fully human or Nindroid, but also something else entirely. Part of a trilogy where I give Zane different Transformers fanon sex attributes and let him loose.
Now no longer a trilogy!

Summary
"He understands why he feels calmer in Zane’s presence when the fire becomes too much, because comfort is probably programmed into Zane’s nature, and because it makes sense for him to need to cool down.
It doesn’t make much sense for ice to seek help in the element that would melt it, but that’s where Zane’s sinking into right now. Into Kai’s arms."
Or: Kai and Zane find comfort in each other's element.

Summary
Akita stifled a growl at the sight of the monster.
Boreal. The Ice Emperor’s dragon.
The very creature that froze Akita’s people all those years ago, the same one that stole her brother from her for all that time. The one that brought him to rot and starve, the one that slammed Lloyd into stone, the one that threw Akita herself so hard that she couldn’t hold consciousness for very long after. The Boreal that was responsible for so much suffering, the Emperor’s most loyal pet.
OR
What if the Ice Emperor's dragon, Boreal, survived? What if Akita found it first? What if something changed?

Summary
Zane turned, giving his bed a glance, but instead he bit back a shriek, jolting when he saw two electric blue eyes narrowed at him through the darkness.
His own electric blue eyes.
Well, electric was a stretch. They flickered, and the lights within them were surely dim and dying. But he wasn’t exactly focused on the details, and instead he was staring, shocked, at a terrible, horrible, awful reflection of himself. Though the figure wasn’t wearing his signature heavy armor, his long hair and sharp antlers gave Zane all the information he needed.
The Ice Emperor.
The Ice Emperor was here, in Zane’s room, standing just where he had been sitting in front of his door. Blocking his only exit. Not making a sound, not moving.
OR; Nobody knows what you want better than yourself!

Summary
When Cole learns that Zane is alive and trapped in a mysterious, distant realm, he'll stop at next to nothing to get him back. But who will he find at the end of the road?
OR
Cole is a gay, gay man, and Zane is so, so not well. Rewrite of the Ice Chapter because I don't think we had enough time spent on Ice Emperor Zane, and I feel like we don't get the lonely feeling of the Never Realm with all the ninja present.

Summary
P.I.X.A.L.'s not sure when she fell back into that comforting desire. It was a part of her. Like Zane's purpose to protect, she was made to be useful, to assist. It was in her name, sandwiched between 'external' and 'lifeform'.
It drove her, made her aim for higher and greater. For years, she felt she had made it. She was in the perfect place, giving all that she needed and stealing moments for herself. But now the mould cut for her was too big and she was desperately trying to fill the gaps.
If she wasn't useful, then she was useless. Useless robots didn't survive.
