Work Text:
By seven PM, the rainstorm still hadn't eased off which meant that they couldn't do training or anything outside for a while and the sheer amount of rain was messing with the TV and internet so that meant no video games either.
Jay had suggested they play Poker so that's was why the Ninja were now sitting around the table, trying to play Poker (no one knew the rules and Zane wasn't allowed to search them up).
"This isn't going anywhere," Nya said, putting her hand of cards down onto the table.
"Can anyone think of a game we all know how to play?" she asked, they were banned from playing video games until further notice by Master Wu who was out getting more tea, despite the storm.
"What about Mahjong?" Lloyd piped up.
Now that was a game they all knew how to play.
Kai and Zane left to hunt down the Mahjong board someone had bought just before the whole Prime Empire fiasco.
Originally, only Lloyd had known how to play but after the Tournament of Elements, before Morro's possession, he had taught both Nya and Kai.
Nya had taught Jay after the events of Naddakan, Sky Pirates, and New Djinjago (which, of course, the others didn't know had happened).
Sometime later, but before the Time Twins, Kai taught Zane, even though he really didn't need to, the Nindroid could have just searched up how to play online but he had actually asked the Master of Fire to teach him.
Cole was the last to learn how to play, having been taught by Jay one day during their search for Master Wu.
Mahjong was played in Mandarin, not Ninjagorian, a language that was mostly spoken in the outer villages, not as much in Ninjago City anymore.
And now, there were fewer and fewer people who spoke the language.
As the maximum players were four, so Zane and Nya were substituting with Jay and Lloyd, respectively.
In the end, jay and Zane ended up winning, which honestly wasn't that surprising.
