@docwyattbeyond.bsky.social Hey Doc! Question from my Ninjago obsessed 11 year old: Ninjago and Chima are now officially connected. Will Chima characters such as Laval and Cragger be returning in Ninjago? Thanks!!

Held by Anne Michaels was so beautiful, I loved it. Would recommend to read it in as few sittings as possible.

As you can tell, Honey is pretty disappointed with me today. She only got her usual meals plus an egg and huge quantities of treats. She expected bacon.
