Fugi-Dove Headcanons

My little pigeon feeding blorbo has been selected for my nightly brain rot. More information about my thoughts below the cut!

Bear with me, it has been a few years since I last revisited S11. Fugi-dove is a forming and human hybrid, ending up with him being a little bit silly in the mind. For most physical qualities they go back to human roots and mental/(ig) spiritual are more formling aligned. There are few execptions like the small fluffy tuffs/markings along his cheeks. His formling qualities are garnered from his mother, a formling who had been brought to Ninjago via the Master of Ice before Zane. She was tasked with watching over the new master in hopes that the powers would be in good hands, that no harm would be brought upon them due to the new abilities. Her form was the falcon who had inspired Dr. Julien to create the robotic one later with Zane's life as something that would hold great symbolism within his life, and something that he could use to all ways remember him. The reason behind bringing a formling into Ninjago, and how even did that happen!? In this head canon the Master of Ice knew that since he bore no offspring that his element would find a new master though they chose to manually transmit the power as it would be randomized anyways once he departs from this realm. Since he is completely randomizing who he gives the gifts too he brings the formling in order to make sure that once the power is obtained the right stands remain in good morals. The reason behind the formling is partially because of the way of watching over them in plain sight, and knowing that the FSM distanced himself from the Never-Realm, the Master of Ice being the first to not blood related transmit the element, made this in a way that his acts could not be rather noticed and frowned upon within the departed realm. The ability of bring Fugi-dove's mother is unknown though most likely had some connection with the elemental power of ice and the Never-realm being a flat land of ice and snow.

The reason behind the acceptance of the offer relates to how in the animated scenes/episodes of S11, we see the leader of the formlings have some sort of eagle as their creature. Fugi-dove's mother is the sibling of them and was rather regarded rather poorly compared to her brother who seemed to a wish upon a falling star, leaving the formling village although in the slightest bit painful to cut ties was nothing much and a new start in Ninjago sounded like a ticket to a new life. Falcon formling fell in love, had a child, had a another, and bam modern S11. Since the Falcon held symbolism with Zane, so does/was Fugi-dove. Seeing as he appears to be within the Ice-Chapter, his sole appearance is to symbolize Zane's change of becoming the Ice Emperor and going to the Never-Realm. Where his mother was to represent the past he is too showcase the future, sort of. His pure curiosity and friendship towards Jay is mostly reasoned (in my opinion) with that he has a stronger connection and lead towards Echo (Zane) as he was not directly tasked watch over the ice elemental descendants. Jay had gone through Skybound and uncovered Echo's existence instilling the oathly connection that run's through the formling blood within Fugi-dove's veins. With Skybound and the final wish washing that timeline away, it screws up the connection and leaves the only him with the one-sided connection towards Jay but for an unknown reason. His formling gene's are showcased with his connections to doves, the creature that he would be able to shift into if he had been pure blood. Though he also has a bit more meek connection with other birds, pigeons and seagulls he enjoys to hang out and feed regarding their place in the social class of animal kingdom and how he feels about himself and his rank in the social classes. In addition to the fact that seagulls guard Echo's lighthouse out at a sea. What was your main though process behind all of this? The formling hats and Fugi-dove's mask look oddly similar in a way I will base my connection with them.

Randomly got it in my mind that Fugi-Dove’s real name is a really generic name like Bob or Frank or something so he hates being called anything other than Fugi-Dove or Fugi and now it’s canon to me

It seems that Jay is also having problems 😏

My thought for the month was that Fugi-Dove only climbed the damn-poor tree to try to get Jay's attention.

"If the Ninjas came back to save the world again, Jay will come back to save me. And then we'll finish the villainy course so he can become my new partner!" — Fugi-Dove at some point in Dragons Rising, (probably).

So he climbed the poor-damn tree to call out to Jay. The neighbors were upset and forced him to get down, but he didn't know how to get down alone, so they had to call the Ninjas to get him out. He sulked the rest of the day because it was Kai who rescued him showed up, not Jay he even tried to "scare" Kai away only to keep calling for Jay, claiming that he would come to help him.

For the next 4 weeks he did the same routine. Climb up somewhere and shout out for Jay. Fail in getting his attention and by ended up being rescued by another Ninja. Things only got better when Nya grabbed Fugi-Dove by the collar and told him that Jay wouldn't come to him because he wasn't at the Crossroads, and actually, he was still lost somewhere in the Merged Realms. Fugi-Dove just gave her a sideway glance and walked away defeated. Six hours later the Ninjas received a call saying that Fugi-Dove had climbed another tree again, but now instead of screaming for the Blue Ninja he was crying at the top of his lungs.

I can't say I like the dove-guy, but he has his moments. Sometimes. When he's not being a creepy-half-idiot.
