Guys, not only is Skylor a playable character in the LEGO Ninjago Movie Videogame, she has the second most skills (just one less than the Golden Ninja), AND she is also the ONLY character besides Lloyd who is a Master Builder. Which is a LEGO Movie exclusive thing and the only reason Lloyd has it is because he got a cameo in the LEGO Movie. Skylor has not appeared in any LEGO movie, and yet they gave her this.
which imo feels like them confirming that she does exist somewhere in the LEGO Ninjago Movie universe. and MAN I'd love to see that.
I can imagine her being introduced as this New Orange Ninja that no one knows where came from, and she gets the main gang's attention by doing a bunch of vigilante justice stuff. She keeps slipping away before they get a chance to talk to her, so they all think she's super mysterious and cool (Except for maybe Lloyd who has trust issues and is very skeptical, which the others tease him about). The weirdest part? They apparently have ALL of the same powers they have. combined.
Around the same time, this new girl starts in the grade above them, and she has some classes together with Kai, who immediately takes a liking to her and starts inviting her to eat lunch with him and his friends. Which is a little clumsy considering they use lunchtime to discuss ninja stuff, but they're being really careful abour keeping their double lives a secret to her by a combination of whispering, speaking in pig latin, and kicking each other under the table when someone is about to let something confidential slip.
To us, the Audience, it is immediately obvious that Skylor, the new girl is the orange ninja, but by LEGO Ninjago Movie logic, no one can figure it out until she herself reveals it to Kai, who in turn lets her in on their secret, without talking to Lloyd first, and there's some slight drama before she gets to start training with them.
But oops!! She's been evil the whole time!! Except not really. She's just doing what her Evil Dad tells her to do, but honestly she's been feeling bad about it the whole time, so it only takes one
🥺"I'm not- I mean, we are not our evil dads"🥺 monologue
from Lloyd to fully sway her away from the dark side and turn on Chen. And that's when she reveals that she has one power she kept secret from even him: Being a Master Builder.
also afterwards Lloyd invites her to the secret master builders' club, but that happens off screen and the only indication that it happens is that she gets a small cameo in the LEGO Movie 3. the end.
