@pixane-lover
I thought you might appreciate my favorite Pixane headcanon: Zane is right-handed and Pix is left-handed so at meals she'll always sit on his left so they can hold hands while they eat.
Awwh! That is such an adorable and cute headcanon, You made my day literally! Thank You, Sweetie!
Is it just me or is my stomach flipping and making me sick even though I am crying when I see this. It's so adorable
FINALLYYYY A TINY OUNCE OF A PIXANE MOMENT-💕💕💕 I LOVE THEM
@parachutingkitten You are making me freak out!!
From Ninjaman285 on Twitter, found on a Finnish website, these are the translated names of episodes 15 - 30 of Crystalized!
I don't think the titles give away much most people don't already know (scenes in trailers and two titles that leaked a year ago), but just in case
(Episode 20 is actually "Christofern")
Apparently they're all going to air on October 3 and 4, so.. get ready for that
You made my day!
OH MY GOD!!!! OMG THANK YOU @blindpawdoo
You are the best! :)
@pixane-lover look!
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG THEY ARE SO CUTE OH MY GOD! MY GOSH! SO CUTE AAAAH I'M GONNA SCREAM (Sorry that was me fangirling since that picture is the cutest thing I have ever seen)
< : )
Hehe Lol I kept seeing people sending out posts of the original scene and wondered if Pixal saw that and got flustered so bad she would have exploded
XD
Awww that is so cute, the faces makes me smile and start fangirlling since pixane is my top (Meaning fav ship)
Family movie night
“Lloyd I can’t believe you’ve never seen Wall-E before. Like, PIXEL I can believe, but you?”
“I grew up with an evil dad. Didn’t exactly have a good environment for movie nights.”
“Shush you two! This is my favorite part!”
@ninjago-bingo soft!
That reminds me of the scene in my book of "The Ice Knight and The Princess" Where Zane keeps finding a Blue Spirit Butterfly, the spirit belonged to Pixal. She secretly has ice powers after being brought back to life by Zane, sometimes when Zane is sleeping he wakes up finding a butterfly resting on his nose. He always knew it was Pixal, even though she wasn't there.
Here is the link to my story if you want to see it...
Butterfly boop

That definitely reminds me of Zane telling Pixal to stop working during the night and sleep with him.
“Having a hard time getting any work done”

That totally reminds me of Zane sneaking into Pixal's room at night and laying down next to her trying not to wake her up
There are 2 dogs in the video but I would see that the cat is sleeping with 1 of them if it makes sense for you guys :)
Must not wake

Time and again, Pixal is placed in a position of watching Zane suffer/die, and trying to save him, even as early as season 3. Their first real bonding moment happens while she's repairing him. And not long after that, she rescues him from being dropped into a metal shredder. Then in season 4 she helps him get his memory back, and in season 6 she defends him from the Mechanic trying to scrap him for spare parts. And that's all before she became Samurai X - a role she only took on because Zane had been shut down and was out of commission.
Since becoming Samurai X, she's had to deal with the aftermath of Zane being presumed dead aboard the destroyed Bounty, his banishment at the hands of Aspheera, and then later the Mechanic abducting him and electrocuting him to near-death.
The long and short of it is, Zane has been through a lot, and whenever something bad happens, Pixal gets front-row tickets to watch it all unfold.
Naturally, this has left an impact on her emotional state. And I think the nightmare she experienced in season 11 (shortly after Zane was banished to the Never Realm) showcases this best:
The nightmare depicts Zane holding onto Pixal for dear life, desperation and fear on his face as she's the only thing keeping him from falling into the white abyss below. But then, something causes Zane to slip from her grasp, and he falls beyond her reach, with her flailing helplessly, unable to save him.
Again and again Pixal has watched him die. Again and again she has lost him. In her mind, no matter what she does, no matter how hard she tries to protect him or how tightly she holds on, something will happen that will tear Zane away from her again, and she will be powerless to stop it.
It's not unreasonable to assume that Pixal considers Zane's safety her own personal responsibility, and blames herself whenever something happens to him. Note in particular the way Zane is characterized in her dream - desperate, afraid, with her as the only thing keeping him from falling into the abyss. And when she fails to hold onto him, she is - quite literally - letting him down.
Now that on its own is enough material to keep my poor Pixal Stan heart beating for months. But there are a few more details I think are worth mentioning.
First - the abyss dream!Zane falls into seems vaguely reminiscent of the ice torrent he falls into at the end of season 3. Here's a side-by-side comparison for reference:
I know it's a bit of a stretch, but you gotta admit the similarities are at least a little bit uncanny. If we're following this train of thought, then this may suggest that Pixal not only feels responsible for her inability to save Zane from Aspheera, but also blames herself for Zane's death in his battle against the Overlord. Or at the very least, she's noticed enough similarities between both instances of losing Zane that her mind is subconsciously projecting them.
Either way, it's safe to say Pixal is almost definitely traumatized from past experiences of watching Zane die. I mean, let's not forget that Zane's fight against the Overlord was, as far as we know, her first real experience with death, and Zane didn't exactly die peacefully.
Another thing to note is that the version of Aspheera in her dreams wasn't trapped in ice, but rather standing freely and unharmed. On the left is how she appeared in Pixal's dream, and on the right is what her actual condition was when she banished Zane.
It could just be an inconsequential dream thing, but idk since we're overanalyzing things here I want to make the comment that it almost erases Zane's conflict with her - how Zane had fought her (and her entire army) and won, and was only banished due to her breaking her arm out of the ice when he had his back turned. But in Pixal's dream, that context is removed, with only Aspheera standing there as powerful as can be, blasting Zane seemingly without prompt.
The reason why this is noteable is that the abyss scene and that singular shot of Aspheera are the only two moments in her dream that aren't exact recordings of the events that transpired. Everything else in her dream is just an exact, near-flawless memory of what happened - except for the abyss scene and the moment when Aspheera blasts Zane. For some reason, Pixal's dream ignored all of Zane's involvement in that fight, and disregarded the fact that Zane had already defeated her.
There are two possible meanings of this:
She views Aspheera as an intimidating individual, and the version of Aspheera in her memory reflects Pixal's feelings about her. She views Aspheera as a strong, formidable, and terrifying opponent. A bogeyman of sorts. Aspheera is Pixal's bogeyman
Pixal is subconsciously victimizing Zane. And yes, he is a victim in this situation - but just moments before his banishment he had successfully incapacitated not just Aspheera but all of her soldiers as well. Her dream not only largely neglects to acknowledge his involvement in the fight itself, but his contributions to Aspheera's defeat - effectively cementing Zane's victim status further into Pixal's mind
With all this in mind, I think it's not unreasonable to say that Pixal, on some unconscious level, views Zane as a victim whose safety she is responsible for. I don't think she has this viewpoint intentionally, and I think Pixal is aware of Zane's competence and respects his merits as a teammate, a hero, and a partner. I'm not making the case that Pixal thinks so little of Zane that he can't stand up for himself.
But I do think that, after years of watching Zane suffer and having to look after him, her experiences have begun to affect her view on not just Zane, but herself as well - with her subconscious hinting to her in subtle ways that Zane is someone she needs to protect, and that his protection is her responsibility.
In a way, I think Pixal views her responsibility for Zane's wellbeing in a similar way that Kai views his responsibility for Nya and Lloyd - you know they're skilled fighters in their own right, and that they can look after themselves, but you will still blame yourself first and foremost if any harm comes to them because you feel like it's your job to protect them.
Anyway, the long and short of it is that Pixal has a savior complex targeted primarily at Zane, deriving from years of trauma involving his repeated deaths and her repeated inability to save him, and in this essay I will -
OMG that is so adorable, I liked the end of season 11 of Ninjago.
“You’re alive!”
OMG thank you I love that :)
Hey There :)
I have just been looking at the pictures you have been drawing and WOW they are amazing!
In 1 of the pictures, there was one that showed that the ninjas including Pixal were going on holiday and they were going to catch a train, Right?
Could you do a pixane drawing of Zane and Pixal on the train sleeping or something?
The train back home was late at night and everyone was tired out from their fun vacation.
Aww you are making my day (You are also making my heart melt that is so darn cute)
snow day :D
Check out my Pixane Cosmetic Bag :)
Hey, I have completed it and here it is...
I'm soon making a pixane bag and I will show you it's progress like I did before
From all those points you have said I have agreed
Why I don't think anything major will happen to Zane and Pixal in the next season. Not this time.
1. Wishful thinking. They deserve a break. But then, who in Ninjago doesn't, really? The nindroids haven't been corrupted, deactivated, manipulated, or thought dead since Prime Empire (and even then, that zangsty moment with Zane tethered to Unagami's portal only lasted for half an episode). So, it will surely be their turn again sooner or later, but based on what we've seen so far, I don't think it will be in Crystalized. Because ...
2. Nya. Skylor. The pink-haired girl in the van. Maybe Harumi (if the sets are anything to go by). With Jay grieving about Nya and Kai likely rekindling his relationship with Skylor, that's already a lot of romantic potential (which has never been a focus of Ninjago anyway). And there's little wiggle room to put yet another female side character in the spotlight (sorry, that's what Pixal is to the writers). I personally think she will be absent for most of the season.
3. I always felt Tommy's statement "don't wish for a Pixane kiss, because not all kisses are happy ones" (I'm paraphrasing) was referring to that Jaya scene in Seabound, not something that is going to happen to the nindroids in the near future.
4. Zane has died in an encounter with the Overlord before. We've been there, don't need that again. At least I hope so (looking at you, Mr. E!). Because it all comes down to
5. Wishful thinking.
Yeah those headcanons are just perfect
Pixal and Zane Headcanons I have
*Things I think about too much! Angst and Fluff :)
I know we are talking about the crystal season, but fuck you this is my post and my account, I'll do what I want!
----
Pixal has so many pieces of armor that Zane has to help her put it all on sometimes. "Why did you make your armor so many pieces, snowflake," "I don't remember anymore!"
Zane, despite being a clean person, works in a state of what he calls "organized clutter" whereas Pixal is the complete opposite, in the work sense, keeping a workstation organized.
Pixal does Zane's chores when he's on missions because y'know she gets left behind a shit ton and wants to keep busy.
You can't convince me that Zane has not brought stay animals to the monastery. Given that there is a random cat that lives in the monastery, Wu named it Capri, because no one could come up with a name. The cat goes between Wu's room, and Zane and Pixal's room with Wu and Pixal being its favorite people.
I've said this before but ZANE AND PIXAL SLEEP FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME AFTER BIG MISSIONS. Because those metal bitches would stay up the entire time, you can't convince me otherwise!
Pixal sits in Zane's lap, Zane sits in Pixal's lap, anywhere and everywhere! It's a comfort thing.
I believe that Zane always needs something to do to keep himself believe so he doesn't have to be alone with his thoughts.
Give the one above Zane with absentmindedly playing and even braiding Pixal's hair when he is thinking or listening to others. Like family, a meeting is called in the living room or something, and Pixal will already be there, Zane will sit next to her and just start braiding her hair.
Pixal hates it when Zane calls her Pix, and even tho it happens very rarely, Pixal actually stops anything and everything and gets caught off guard. "why is it a problem," "It doesn't sound right, coming from you!"
Pixal hates Milton Dyer, enough said
There are two wolves inside me: one that says Zane doesn't get jealous, the other says Zane gets jealous of the others from time to time because Pixal and Zane don't get a lot of time together as it is.
Based on the headcanon that the two of them are married that's I've had for ages, they are not married legally, and they never had a wedding, Zane said they were married one day and everyone went along with it because it made the most sense.
Jay constantly asks Zane for advice and has asked how I propose to Nya, and Zane just shrugged and said "I never did," which did not make Jay feel any better.
Zane is touted as the good husband/boyfriend/partner cause, he would be, of course, but he doesn't think he is given the fact that he and Pixal don't spend a lot of time together and he knows he could do more but he's always busy.
Zane gives Pixal flowers for no other reason than because he can.
Someone wrote in a fic, so I don't take credit for it, something like Pixal and Zane communicating via their minds and I can't get it out of my head because they would do that!
Pixal has screamed "I BUILT A FUCKING SUBMARINE," at someone at least once a month.
Zane has fantasized about Pixal in wedding attire, I would put money
Pixal is over-protective!
If we assume they are straight, they are the group's emotional support straights.
Zane taught Pixal how to cook, despite that she knew how they really enjoyed the time they spent together.
I feel like if we assume they can drink and eat (let's not look into it that much this one is funny I swear!) I feel like they are both lightweights which leads to fun shenanigans
We all as a collective can agree that Pixal would and will repair Zane if he gets damaged, and I personally think he gets injured a shit ton
So like I feel like Pixal has pleaded with him at some point to stop getting himself hurt so often.
If they are training together PIxal's kicking his ass! The reason: Zane gets distracted!
My love, my moon, my snowflake, all of Zane's nicknames for Pixal.
Pixal calls, love, honey, and prince charming on occupation.
Zane has had to talk Pixal down and even hold her back from killing the Mechanic!
Zane found a new appreciation for the color pink seeing Pixal wear the color.
I doubt they have been on an actual date, but I don't think it bothers the two of them.
Aww so cute, omg, omg, omg, so cute, omg, i love them, aaaaahh
more pixane cuz they’re literally the best
They look so cute, I am dying from fangirlling
THEM!!!! THEM THEM THEM!! i love gay robots!!!
Ever wonder why I gave Zane heterochromia?
I have lots of thoughts about he
That is just so FUCKING CUTE
Okay Pixal I see you I see you girl, checking out your man
Wow I never seen you draw like that before, it's amazing, I really do like it. You can also check out my cosmetic bag post that was in progress. I while show the results in a few weeks time, But either than that I really like that Pixane drawing
I've started to sketch stuff from my fanfics ... So while I'm trying to figure out my coloring style, have this little Pixane ink drawing.
Hey Guys I am making a cosmetic bag or should I say Pixane cosmetic bag. Yeah so I will show the results at the end when I made this, so yeah I am such a pixane lover. Hope you have a great day ;)
You are making my heart melt
“It is easy to love people in memory. The hard thing is to love them when they are right in front of you.”
This is for my Pixal: Master of Life and Death AU. If you’re interested please ask!
Ok so we know Tommy confirmed something bad is gonna happen involving Pixane.
Do we think Zane’s gonna get hurt? Or do we think Pixal’s gonna get hurt?
